Mr.. ScH1oLE, of Bonn, in his new work
on the Scientific Method Of Prolonging
and Making Comfortable Human Life, !"
bases his method upon the hypothesis that
the condition known as old age is pro-
duced by incorporation between the
organic framework and inorganic con-
stituents of the human body. In order to
prevent this condition and preserve the
elasticity of youth it is only necessary to
introduce some substance which will dis
solve the excess of mineral matter and al
low of its absorption. Such substance
are the inorganic acids, and chief among
these citric acid; the next in value being
Tactic acid. Citric acid is best taken in
the form of mon-juice, and it is recon-
mended that a person swallow the juice
of from two to eight lemons daily, year
in and year out! Pass on the lemons.

But, on the other hand, the archbishop OF
Cashel, in Ireland, prelate of higher rank
than the bishop OF Cleveland, without dis
cussing the question whether ''virsgoes" do
not deserve accommodation, declared that
the female Land-Lesguers are not of that

Washington Capital.


Bishop Gilmour, OF Cleveland, has, we are
sorry 10 say, lost his temper.
Judging from the sample before us, what
il his ioaA is no ones gain, and it will hardly
pay TO offer IA reward for ITS recovery.
His holiness gives us to understand that
the women OF his diocese are in danger Of
becoming "brawlers." We hope not. Such
imputation is very hard on the Catholic
ladies OF that locality.
Even, however should there be such peril,
his holiness ought not TO set such bad
example. A brawling bishop is person we
cannot abide. He is almost as bad as a
scofIsr, and we would go mile out Of our
way to avoid either.

tenance and vociferatss the sheep are apt to

there would be hell to pay, to speak prop
erly We said: "There is Bishop Gimour
he won't like il. He will rear up and paw,
and let loose bulls and things" Next to a
lion, there is no more dreadful beast among
ladies than a mad bull.
So far his holiness has only threatened.
we pray MIN 10 put on his theological mar
tingale and curbed bit. Let his holiness be
more considerable. We are not used to bulls.
Were he to let loose lot, even small bulls,
to go tearin' over his diocese with heads down
and tails up, he may brighten some good
wives into premature additions to the popu-
lation OF Ohio.
We beg, We implore, in the language of
the late Republican circular to the Office
holders for subscriptions, we gently and
mildly solicit his holiness to possess his soul
in peace. Let him take the Congressional
Record and soothe his theological nerves into
repose and his theological brain into quiet
sleep.

The Star-Route Trials.

WASHINGTON, June 14.-In the Star-route
trial, Mr.. Merrick said he proposed to take
up the routes serfatin, completely disposing
Of one route before taking up another. Mer-
rick put in evidence various certificates and
papers from the Office of the auditor of the
postoffice department. Senator Saunders,
Of Nebraska, was examined at some length,
but his testimony developed nothing new.
General exception was entered to all evil
dence relating to acts which occurred before
May II, 1879, and the reading of letters was
begun. They are from J. w. Dorsey & Co.
to French, and relate TO compensation to be
allowed for service and time schedules.
One OF the letters was directed to French,
Cedarville, which received three mails per
week, to prevent the postmaster from max
ing a return to the department. All answers
were TO be directed to BOX ia, Washington,
u. C. Several of the letters appeared to
be on official paper of the Senate. Daring
the cross examination, French, attorney gen.
eral, entered the courtroom.
Witness identified the letter handed him
by Hine, and written by Nightengale on his
authority. TWAS proposal for the thirteen
hour schedule made by French TO Peck.
Bliss put in evidence, a letter from Peck to
French, which, he asserted, sho Sed conclu-
sively Peck knew of the. departure from the
advertised schedule on this route.

JOHN COwDEN's Plan,
The Extraordinary Alb .urttity of which
as Supported by Two Western
Papers.

IN the face of the overwhelming testimony
elected in the discussion before Congress and
the country, in favor of the policy of con-
centration, as opposed to that Of diffusion, in
the treatment Of the Mississippi river, in
spite of the published and reiterated views
OF the bsst engineers in the country, the
Cincinnati Commercial maintains tiresome
and senseless, but furious warfare against the
River Commission and its plans.
The veteran editor Of the Commercial, who
is nothing if not obstinate, having made up
his curious mind that the jstties are fail
ure and a fraud, never loses an opportunity
to denounce Captain Eads, who projected
and successfully built them, and as Captain
Eads was, until recently, one of the River
Commission the Commercial has persistently
and ssvagely fought his views, which were
adopted, if not previously entertained, by
the other gentlemen on the commission, and
which will most unquestionably be carried
out in the improvements contemplated.
Unable to find anybody else to entertain
It's extraordinary ideas in regard to the
dynamics of the great riv>r, the Commercial
has given its columns freely TO Mr.. John
Cowden, whose little scheme for digging an
absurd ditch or canal below this city, has
been SO severely sat down upon in Washing
ton, and which has been repudiated by most,
if not all of the representatives Of the great
railway interests here, who were paraded by
Cowden as being favorable TO his canal
project.
Rally the Commercial is getting itself
laughed at by its ridiculous course in this
N after, and il is very difficult to understand
what can actuate SO able and influential a
j1urnal in persistenlly and laboriously en-
deavoring TO throw discredit upon gentlemen
of unblemished regulations and of unques-
toned capacity, who are pursuing plan in
the improvement of the river that meets the
cordial appreciation of the best engineering
talent in the world.
The disfavor with which the Cowden
scheme met in Washington, and the disgust
created there and elsewhere by the wild
rawlings of the disgruntled Cowden himself,
do not seem TO have caused any abatement
in the Commercials ardor, and it does not
hesitate to refer to the gentlemen composing
the commission "river pirates" and to
hold up Cowden an engineer worthy of
the admiration Of the people OF the whole
country. This, we submit, is an example Of
mischievous journalism on the part of the
Commercial, and is calculated TO lower the

norwoRsE TEAM our NEraHBoKs.

For several months past the London
Times has been entertaining its readers with
editorial articles rejecting seriously upon
the people and the affairs of the United
States. Themes have been furnished for
these productions by the Guitesu trial, the
Star-route cases, the Jesse James fa1co,
civil service reform, and the like. In q
recent article upon the latter subject appears
the following astounding sentence: "Corrup-
tion has been permitted 20 assert itseif in the
affairs of the country to such hideous
extent that it may be truly said there il
scarcely public man, and sssuredIy not an
institution, entirely beyond its influence"
Let us examine ourselves and see if we are
worse than our neighbors in this connection
If the British Phsrisee can afford 10 throw
stones. To begin with the intuition Of the
Presidency, since the millenial age has not
arrived. even the most optimist OF confders
ia mans rectitude can scarcely believe
that any election can be carried ON
entirely without some amount Of
crookedness, how small soever thai amount
may be. A president may owe his term of
cfice TO corruption, and may even have been
guilty of corruption himself in connection
with his election, but from the nature of the
case be would be infinitely more the sinned-
in-behalf-of than the actual sinner. Now
comes the question: Is fraudulently seated
president greater fraud than an hereditary
monarch? The one is led to believe that
he has been elected by the popular voice for
four years as the head of the nation; the
other throughout life is a standing monu-
ment of corruption, for what sane and honest
man could believe himssli, and his heirs in
perpetuity, constituted nagnifcently PEN
stoned paupers "by divine right?" 1t was
to punish the chosen people that the AL
mighty first inflicted them with a sovereign,
and ever since that period these personages
have proved very bitter scourges upon the
people over whom they affect to rule.
Whether is the more corrupt fraudulent
president elected for term of four years,
and then relegated to comparative obscurity,
or fraudulent monarch holding office
for lie, and his children after him?
Again: Are our public men personally
more corrupt than those of other lands?
Without leaving the case of the president and
the sovereign, has the national capital under
any president, or any State capital under any
governor, ever so reeked with debsuchery as
the localities in which such unnatural beasts
as Henry VIII, such petulant pimps as
Charles III, such gluttonous cyclists as George
LII, and such icentious ibertines as George
