NOTES AND PERSONALS.

1t is narrated by the Hon. John f. Ellis,
the gifted Democratic orator from Louis.
lana, that in 1861 just when the faces of the
American people were growing dark in the
scowl of the swiftly gathering war-storm,
an old man who had been broken by the
storms of State, and had for a very long
time represented the genius and eloquence
of craftsmanship of Kentucky in the ma.
tional councils went down TO the Congress
sional Garden, and just inside of the gate,
on the left hand side of the east gate as you
enter, he planted an acorn which he had
brought from Kentucky, and he planted il
in the name OF the spirit of union and har-
mony and peace. The storm came on. The
acorn was beneath the ground. The storm
ragged and beat upon all of our land. The
acorn, under the beautiful and mysterious
operations of nature, was dying that II
might live in newer and brighter creation,
The storm passed away and the oak tree
grew up and waves its arms to-day in the
soft spring air, shrinking in the sunlight
and defying the storm. This is no fiction as
your readers can see, and he who chooses to
visit the spot and marks its wavings TO the
kisses Of the breeze, or he who stands be-
meath its shadow with a knowledge OF its
history must find the spirits of peace and
union all about II in accord with the noble
wish of the great hearted Kentuckian who
planted it there.
Every Judge on the Supreme Bench, save
one, is a partisan Republican, and the bench
Is now full again. Almost all the Circuit
and District Judges are Republicans. So
the Republicans have the judiciary pretty
well packed with partisans-a state of affairs
they have long desired.
The Polygamy bill having become law 4,
considerable interest is manifested concern
ing the appointment OF five commissioners.

THE war of words and threats of some
thing worse between Belmont snd Blaine
on Thursday last has caused no little ex-
element and Blaine's partisans are al
ready busy with the effort to reap har-
vest of glory for their champion. What
ever these was in the conduct OF both
men to arouse indignation, Blaine was
certainly the instigator. His manner
from the very first was imperious and
studiously insolent. He adopted bis old
tactics of running the committee to suit
himself, and finding that defamation
was not going to win he tried the force
of cool, deliberate insolence. He never
gave direct answer when he could avoid
doing 30 and seemed more intent upon
criticising the questions asked than in
giving an answer to them.
At the close he sought to insult Bel
mont and at the same time be parlia-
mentsry. An insult offered in the heat
of passion and without regard to conse
quences is manly when contrasted with
that deliberation which studies the mode
of expression so as to escape response
bility. Blaine boosted of being parlia-
mentary while virtually acknowledging
that his purpose was to call Belmont a
liar. This manner of hurting an oppon-
ent justified Belmont in applying to him
the epithet of coward. He has not come
off with such credit in this instance as he
did with the Mulligan letters.

THE Milwaukee Republican says that
"while it supports the general tenets of
the republican party, it neither has nor
will be the organ of any clique. nor will
it hesitate to criticise and condemn
wrongful acts and blunders committed by
members of it's party" Let The Repub-
lican occupy this elevated plane and it
will have the respect of the people and
the enmity of Office seekers and politi-
clans. No one can deny that the press
of Wisconsin has for many years been
under the bondage of politicians. Local
papers particularly have been the mouth
piece Ut some boss who had control of
official patronage for whose drippings the
soul of the newspaper man thirsted. The
Pilot has felt the enmity of party bosses
and it naturally feels bitter toward any
paper that wears political boss's col
lar. Before the press of the state be
comes respectable it must be entirely free
from the dictation of Office seekers and
Office holders. 1t will then have some
influence, something which it has now in
an infinitesimally small degree, because
it is mercenary and sycophantic.

THERE can be but little question that
Gladstone will vigorously push his new
Irish policy. The state of anarchy in
which that island has been for some time
and the impossibilitv of forcing the PEG
pie to longer submit to the landlords.
make a change as desirable to that class
almost as to the pereecuted tenant. But
think of Ireland without landlords The
Irish peasants land owners! But it is
not much more strange than the discs
tablishment of the IRISH church. 1t is
almost as difficult for an old Irishman to
understand an ''old country" without
tithes as without landlords.
The conservatives Can hardly fight the
new policy of Gladstone as they took the
first step in the matter. All the estates
will be broken up. Tenants are to pay
four per cent. of the valuation yearly for
forty seven years, when the land is theirs
in fee simple.

PRorEssoR LAsonEY OF the Alleobeny

PROFESSOR LANGLEY of the Allegheny
Observatory, last August conducted q
series Of experiments on the top Of Mount
Whitney, in Colorado, with view to de-
termine just how much of the sensible
heat felt at the earth's surface is due to
direct radiation from ii g sun. Mount
Whitney is barren peak, the highest in
the United States, and its hight enabled
the professor to conduct his experiments
without the interference of the heat alb
sorbed by the atmosphere which lay very
largely below him. He found that while
cold increased as he went upward the "a
diate heat of the sun increased and that
the greater the altitude the greater the
suffering from sunburn. His expert
ments with the spectrosoope give but
little that was not previously known to
students of philosophy, that below the
red in the solar spectrum the heat is
much greater than in any part of the
visible spectrum. One very important
use of the atmosphere, absolutely essen
tial to the existence of animal and vege-
table life, is the conservation OF beat.
Was it not for the heat absorbed by the
atmosphere and given out, the tempefa-
ture of the most favorably located por-
tons of the earth would be less than
that of the coolest arctic regions. The
radiate rays of the sun would OF them
selves give temperature so low that
mercury would freeze, degree of cold
rarely experienced in this latitude.

STop THAT CoUsH.-If after the pro-
positio we have held out to you the past
few years, you still refuse TO try the ex-

you to go to Robinson & Hinrich' g or any
other drug store and get bottle of
Hele's Cough Cordial, and after using
one half of it, if it does not cure your
congh and cold, you may return the bal
ance and they viii pay you back your
money. If we can't help you we don't
want your money; but knowing that we
eau help You we unhesitatingly ask you
for small portion of your gold. 1t is

GENERAL SHERMAN, it is said, has
changed his views on the compulsory re-
tirement of military officers. He does not
want it to apply to any officer above the
rank of colonel. Gen. Sherman's wishes
in this matter should be entitled to a
great deal of weight. He and men like
him who have done good service, should
not be made to step aside to make room
