If Shelley was correct when he wrote that
poets learn in suffering what they teach III
song, chen it is more than probable that the
next time Oscar wilde lays down his sgniiower
and takes up his pen he will paintively sing or
his painful experience among the enterpnslng
banco men of the New World. In another
column will be found prose version OF that
experience. In the light of this latest reveia-
ton it is clear that Oscar is something more
than a unique variety of charlatan. lie Is
quite promising fool.

Governor-elect Cleveland has appointed Il
Buffalo man to the position of Pardon CLERK I'D
the Executive Department. The present rar-
don Clerk, Edward Miggael, was originally ap-
nointed by Governor Hoffman, and tho TACT
that he has served through five administrations
three of them Democratic and two Republican,
attests his efficiency and fidelity. The reasons
that induced Mr.. Cleveland to remove so com
petent and worthy an official who mas com
mended himself alike to political friends ana
opponents. are not stated, but they can readily
be coniecturcd. He wanted Mr.. Mlggaels
place for another man. one of his own towns
men. 1t is all right, we presume. but the gen.
temen who have been strenuous III declaring
that Mr. Cleveland was going to conduct his
administration purely on business principles "
have the floor.

1t is not creditable to human nature TO read
that the owners of large manufacturing cs-
tat lishment in this city, employing some 800
men and girls, at which there was an alarm OF
fire a few days ago. do not purpose to place
fire-escapes upon their buildings unless they
are ordered to 40 SO by the public authorities.
There are at present no external escapes from
the factory, which consists of two Eve STORY
buildings connected by series of rooms ut one
end and 10y three narrow iron bridges on the
upper floors. The further account which a
TRIBUNE reporter gives Of the buildings and
what would be likely to happen TO the inmates
in case Of fire is Dot reassuring. Under the cir
cuIuStnces why should the owners of the fac
tory wait for al invitation from an Inspector
of Buildings before providing iire-escapesP 1t
is impossible to believe that they can doubt that
their duty to these 500 employees imperatiVely
demands that they should make such provls-
ion against the awful contingency of fire.

The Court of Appeals of this State has Just
rendered decision which vitality concerns
all men and women within our borders VINO
mediate divorce. Tho question submitted TO
the Court was the effect of the marriage OF
person in another State against whom decree
of divorce had previously been granted IN New
York The laws of New-YOrk forbid the mar
rage Of person against whom such decree
has been granted during the lifetime OF the
complainant. But suppose that the decree OF
divorce being granted in New-Iork, the person
AGAINST whom it runs mdrries again in PenDsyl-
vania are the courts of New-Iork to regard
the Pennsylvania marriage as valid or VOID
The Court of Appeals, reversing the decisions OF
the courts below, hLl1s that il is valid. 1t re-
mains to be seen what effect this ruling VIII
have upon the welfare of society. 1t would
seem to open door that might berter remain
closed.

ut " asnlngron viii swarm with Texan lobbyists
besieging Congressman to vote for the passage
of a bill annexing New-Jersey to New York
City and Rhode Island to Boston. such bill
might pass by n unanimous vote as soon as 1t
was introduced, but we are inclined to think 1t
would encounter some opposition jersey
nigh. he apprehensive that if she suffered
herself to be merged in the metropolis her noble
and famed breed of lightning would lose its
distinctive force and flavor, and tits not unlikely
that Little Rhody would only consent to be-
come part of Boston on condition that Massa-
chusetts adopted a Republican form of Govern
ment, thus renting Mr. Butler to. private life.
1t is hardly possible that Butler ana his friends
would agree to such an arrangement, even for
the sake of making Rhode Island more "sym-
metrical.n But the great objection to the bill
is that it is properly to be regarded as very
dangerous entering wedge. Once let Congress
pass it and Texas can confidently be counted
upon to present another and vastly more
important measure providing for the annexa-
ton Of Pennsylvania to New York. Those two
States, as we all know, have had much to say
from time to time in regard to the undue
cOrpuence of Texas. To name such "a scheme
is to indicate the serious embarrassments that
would arise in case interruptions men sue
cceded in log-rolling it through. Would the
compound State be called NewVania or Pennsyl
York ? Would the boss of the amalgamated
machine go by the name of j. Don Conklng
or Roscoe Cameron2 Would it he necessary to
pull up our fifteen million dollars worth Of new
Capitol and remove it to Harrisburg or would
Harrisburg sweety consent to be suppressed in
favor of Albany7 Would the Quakers OF Phil
adelphia in the interest of the hOmogeneOusness
of the new State consent to initiate the style OF
those who set the fashions for this island, OF
would oar bellies and beans agree 70 cultivate
the things that make for Quaker sUdate-
ness
1t must be only too sadly evident to any
thoughtful man who ponders upon these and
related questions that the union of these two
imperial States could never he accomplished
without cOpOus gore. A humane expediency,
therefore, suggests that the unpleRsantnesS be
compromised while yet there Is time. In
view of the near approach Of Christmas, with
its irresistible suggestions Of peace and good
will WE teel sure that Texas will consent
permanently to pigeonhole the threatened bills
if the rest OF the United States will stop rising
to remark once every fifteen minutes that
Texas might manage to get along with some
thing less than 27l,356 square miles of real
estate States and Territories DESTROYS Of effect
ing compromise on this basis would do well
promptly to send their cOntrite apologies in
registered letters to Tie Galveston NelrS.

The memorial presented by merchants of
this city to Congress protesting against the
passage of a Bankrupt act is a strong, com
pact paper 1t viii be noticed that among
those whose signatures are appended to it are
many of the most prominent and influential
firms of the metropolis Slch a protest from
such source cannot but have great weight at
Washington.

The Intercollegiate Rowing Association was

mixed experience of the former association
there is no reason why it should not have a
long and prosperous future. There is no

the most agreeable melange OF lit

sufficiently diversified in style and
cost to enable every lady reader to
suit both her taste and pocket: and
