King James the First had as his
private chaplain q clergyman named
Mountaigne, with whom no was on very
intimate terms. The bishopric Of Lon
don fell vacant; and 80 equal were the
conflicting claims Of the various candi-
dates that the King was puzzled whom
TO select. He confded his perplexity to
his chaplain, who gave him his ready
aud witty advice: "If ye have faith,
and shall say 10 this Mountaigne, 'Bo
thou removed, and be thou cast into the
see.' Il shall DO DONE" The King was
10 pleased with this apt and arch sug.

taigne was made Bishop Of London. This

high hopes on the meeting of the Democratic
Editorial Association of Indiana. to be held at
Indianapolis next week. The ex-senator enter
tains elegantly. and is always cieverly assisted
by his accomplished wife. and the expectation
is that an effort will be made to start presi-
dental boom in favor of Mr.. Mcdonald among
the Indiana editors.
LESSONS OF THE PENNSYLVANIA ELECTION.
Gen. Beaver. late republican candidate for
governor of Pennsylvania, says the leaders OF
both tactiOns of the republican party in that
state have been to blame. and nave acted for
selfish purposes. He suggests no method for
bringing about harmony. but believes that 1.-The
people should be left alone. and be permitted to
select Their own representatives to conventions
without dictatiOn fIOm any source"
EX-G0v. SPRAGUE TO THE FRONT AGAIN.
Ex-Gov. VIM. Sprague, of Rhode Island, has
become leading Temperance advocate, and is
already regarded as the standard-bearer of the
independent republican party of the state. He
is talked OF for the governOrshp: and it is con-
fidently predicted that he will break I'D the re-
publican ring that governs Rhode Island.
CIVIL SERVICE REFORM IN THE PALMETTO STATE.
Governor Thompson, of South Carolina. has
given practical illustration of his devotion to
civil serv ice reform by renominating all the old
incumbents of the various offices at his disposal
in the counties, holding that there should be no
removals except for cause. Although i'm
portuned by legislators and influential delega-
lions. the governor sustained his pledges and
those of his party in state conventions by re-
nominating the present incumbents where they
were GnObjectiOnable.
