Good for Ex-srnyor st0kIey.

Oscar Wilde was complaining at Cape May the
other day of the high prices of things in this
country "My gloves, for example," lie said,
(which might have bought for dollar in Lon
don, cost $3.50 here" $50 they ought" exclaimed
Mayor Stokley, Of Philadelphia, who was in
the room they are luxuries." "Luxurles, sir p
echoed the aesthetic, In wide amazement; do
you call gloves luxuries? How would you 20 on
The street, how could you travel in the railroad
cars, without gloves2" DO you see these
hands?" returned Mr.. Stokley, warmly; before
became mayor of Philadelphia worked so hard
at my shop that my hands became all covered
with corns that you might have cut with knife /;
Oh them. And you talk about work! Why, it's
good for you! I've worked nearly all my life. and

will take your word for it, Mr. Mayor; will take
your word for it, gasped the Mortified msthete,
and he let the subject drop; but afterward he
made some minute inquiries about Mr. Stokley's
career with q view to basing thereon chapter in
his forthcoming book on America.

Malone in the Departments.

The scriptures tell us of man who
was possessed of devil which made
him to wander among the tombs. The
account states that when this devil was
commanded by the Saviour to depart
from the man he cried out, "What have
/ to do with thee? Wherefore tormentest
thou me before my timer" In the
various departments at Washington,
holding places requiring no skill, are
many old Bourbon fossils and ne'er-do-
wells, claiming to be from States they
never lived in for day, and
who seem to think the govern
ment belongs to them. Many of these
pretend to be Virglnians. The Treasury
Department alone has sixty-three em-
ployes claiming to be from Virginia, of
whom forty were not residents of the
State when appointed, and had no testi-
monial from any who were. The other
department rolls show similar state of
things. The State has been charged with
the friends and favorites of Congressman
and others from all sections The weak
fusilade against General Malone in the
Bourbon and deputy Bourbon papers,
charging him with chopping of heads
and recommending party friends for
the vacancies is undoubtedly inspired
by the parasites above described,
A tick never consents to leave the place
of repose and support in which it is inn
bedded. A barnacle never scrapes itself
off of the bottom of ship, A leech is
never satiated. And so the men who
never lived in Virginia, but are appointed
as Virginians under a false and fraudu-
lent pretense, shrek, rs did that devil in
Scripture, but in advance of any move
ment against them, wherefore tor
mentest thou me before my time "
General Malone has been called upon, as
other Senators have, to recommend a
few persons for new places created,
and has done so. He has also
pointed out some worthless sticks and
some unworthy persons as fit subjects for
removal. 1t may be Reform to keep such
characters in. The ticks, barnacles, and
leeches all declare that their removal
would be an outrage. They rend the air
with their cries, and our morning con-
temporary vies with the New York Times
in pleading their cause. All of which
shows that General Malone Is worthy of
praise for pointing out to the depart
ments such persons as he thinks ought
not to be harbored, and who are in his
opinion q reproach to the State he repre-
sents. We sincerely hope he will con-
tinue to stir them up with long pole,
and that they will continue to curse him
through their organs. We also hope the
departments will gradually be purged OF
these characters, and that their places will
be filled with orderly, capable, and self
respecting Virginians who cannot COM

WHEN the Bourbons of the second
Mississippi district were made glad by
the consent of colored brother, in the
person of Hannibal c. Carter, to run as a
Straight Republican candidate for Con-
gress, for the purpose Of dividing the
enemies of Bourbonism, it was but
natural that the Bourbon organs should
sing Carter's praises in high key, and
they are doing it. They furnish the
Carter argument, viz, that as the Bour-
bons are bad, and as Chalmers was for
merly Bourbon, therefore it is desirable
for the Bourbons to beat Chalmers, who
has declared war against them. Carter
is not "nigger" now among the Lamar
lambs; he is ga colored Republican"
His present patrons regret, as they gaze
upon his good-looking figure and face,
that the good old days of slavery have
passed away, when he would have been
counted ga likely negro man." worth

A DInrderer's Eunernl.

The funeral OF James, alias Chip" Smith, who

place from the Church of the Assumption Sunday
afternoon. solemn requiem mass was cele.

Smith, he said, when In full possession OF his
faculties, he was kind, agreeable, benevolent and
the peer of the very best of his confreres. Strong

evils of intemperance, and addressed himself to

LONDON, Sept. "A dispatch from Kassassin
says Arab has regained confidence. It will be
necessary to advance scientifically and in force.
The reader will readily perceive that if
theimportant information had not leaked
out that Arab had recovered from his
fright it would have been quite sufficient
for General Wolseley to advance unscien-
tifcally, and with mere handful OF
stragglers, picked up as he went along.
In great military campaigns it is only
necessary to ascertain from an enterpris-
ing correspondent to what extent the
enemy is scared, and then to advance
scientifically or awkwardly, in force or in
weakness, as the information so obtained
may suggest.
