NOT PLEASED WITH ARTHUR.

The Buffalo Express, a half-brecd
journal, is not pleased with President
Arthur, and it signs for the past. Had
we a President such as Garfield was, "
says the Express, capable of making
out a policy and presenting it to Con-
gress in a strong light, the record of the
session would undoubtedly have been
far different" Our esteemed contem-
porary Of Buffalo evidently forgets that
Gen. Garfield served many years in Con-
greSs, and that he was a most c~onspicu-
Gus orator OF the Republican party; but
whenever he undertook to lead Congress,
or to make out a policy, his attempt was
a conspicuous failure. No mar who has
ever been prominent in Congress had SC
little power to lead as Garfield. As a
political man he was a bungler and blum.

A SENSIBLE STECgDE.

The man who shot himself at Prince
ton, H., several nights ago while being
arrested on a charge Of bigamy commit
ted the only sensible deed that probably
has ever been recorded in his favor. He
had five wives, all living; in other
words, he had for his selfish pur-
poses placed several confding women in
a social position which is not much, if
any, preferable to death. There is no
appropriate place in this world for such
men except the grave. The age in
which women were held to be fit for
nothing but the toys Of men has de-
parted, and men who want to restore
it would be spared much hatred and
contempt if they would follow his exam

Charles II. Smith is the name of a
Colonel IN the United States Army,
who, having been assigned to court
martial duty. has asked leave TO rejoin
his regiment because it is exposed to the
contagion OF the yellow fever which pre-.
walls in the neighborhood, and the Colo
mel is anxious to share the danger with
which his men are threatened. That is
the kind of a commander who wins the
confidence and affection of his men, and
who, should the occasion arise, might be
trusted to lead them to victory or death.

Lieut.. Willard Young, a son Of
Brigham Young, is a teacher OF engineer

pendent says: He was at West
Point when his fathers estate was being

they should do. He replied hat he
didn't care about quarreling over the

would give him a living, and that he

AN HONEST AND ABLE MAN.

The death which has at last relieved
Senator Hill from the suferings which
for months he has so patiently and
cheerfully borne, remove from the field
OF Southern politics a man Of great force
Of character and Of a mental ability
much above the average. Mir. Hill was
one of the few Southern statesmen who
promptly and heartily acquiesced in the
changed political and social conditions
which followed the suppression of the
rebellion. He did not, like most OF his
colleagues, place himself in opposition to
facts which had been accomplished, but
accepted them with the resignation OF
philosophy, and endearored to make the
best Of them. He was an honest and an
able man, and though his death under
the sad circumstances Of the case was a
happy release, his loss will be to his
fellow-citizens a matter for deep regret.

Matthew Arnold, in one of his "mixed

that ere long the whole world will be
Americanized. Events seem likely to
verify the prediction. What would
Horace Walpole say if he were to be
told that Strawberry Hill, Twickenham,
would less thar a century, after his
death, be purchased by an American
company for the purpose of converting
it into a hotel conducted upon American
principles? Yet such is the fact.

INTRUSION OF SHARKS.

An unforeseen consequence Of cutting
the Suez Canal has been the intrusion of
sharks in large numbers into the Medi-

havoc among the smaller edible fish.
Formerly a shark was almost a curiosity
in the Mediterranean, and there was no
choicer or better stocked fishing ground
in the world. The fishermen of the Pro-
vencal coast supplied the cities Of France
with the best of piscatorial food, and in
never-failing abundance; but they now
have difficulty in furnishing half the
quantity that they then obtained with

promised that OF these the women are to

viii hear with satisfaction, though under
the existing system OF recruiting the
ranks Of the civil service the appoint
ment Of n~ou-yoters to government offices
is not a strictly logical proceeding.

ave are executing several large orders
in diamonds this month, one of them
being a particularly handsome pair of gar
ter clasps for the wife Of a Texas railroad
manager. There is q growing demand
for garter clasps, for presents to ladies,

very elaborately, with monograms and
jewels and all that sort of thing, and
must look very handsome when worn.

We had made for ladies whose names are
quite familiar. They are generally order
ed by the men for birthday and wedding
gifts, and it is really quite the thing to

was inquiring into the matter a day or two
ago, with a view of having a pair
made to send to some young lady friend"

Good and Bad Fable Manners.

A part of table manners should be the

The mutual fOrbearance which prompts
the neat dress, the respectful bearing
the delicate habit of eating, the attention
to table etiquette, should also make the
mind put on its best dress, and the effort
of any one at a meal should be to make

marbor Appropriations for the Lake

Hmrb0r APPROXIMATIONS for the Lake
The cry is frequently raised by the
papers in the interior of the states re-
mote from the great fresh water seas,
that Congress is prodigal in its appro-
priations for the improvements in aid
of navigation. The trouble with these
papers is they are not cOnyersant with
the Importance of the work being done.
nor of the magnitude Of the shipping
interests of these great waters. Charles
f. Folger, of the editorial staff of the
Springfield. Ohio Daily Republic, one of
the leadidg papers in the interior of that
state, has recently been making a trip
from Cleveland, to the head of Lake SUI
periOr on the tug Hancock, and has writ
ten some very interesting letters to his
paper. In his last, written from Han
cock, he refers to the matter of appro-
priations as follows:
Prominent among the items of aDpro-
priatiOn bills passing every Congress,
and published in the principal papers
| of the country, are large sums for I'M
Il
provement of rivers and harbors of this
region. 1t seems at times as though
this was putting the peoples shekels out
of sight with very little to show for 1T.
In reality it is putting the money where,
beyond doubt, it will do most good.
One is the more firmly convinced of this
| fact after sailing through the tOrtuous
and continuous channels and cuts of st.
Clair river and fats, and of the. Portage,
| forming the approach from the Lake to
| Hancock and HOughtOn, and witnessing
| the difficulties of their navigation. Much
has been done in dredging, stalking,
buOying and tightening these channels
but much more can be done to the best
| advantage to the tightening of the mar
iner's responsibilities and dangers.
There is not general appreciation of
the important place held by the "mer-
chant marine" of these fresh water
oceans and the industries of the Nation,
and an understanding is not to be OBJ
tanned through summer excursion on
one of the floating palaces making up
the various passenger lines.

Read TO Improve.

There is no virtue and little enjoyment
in reading one after another of what are
commonly known as solid books unless
they are read merely as means toward
gaining some definite knowledge. A
book of history or geography or physics
or geology is no more than means of
getting certain knowledge that is to be
used Immediately or after time If it
is read with notion that the mere act
Of reading is praiswOrthy use of time,
something effcaciOus-in the same way
in which 1t has been supposed that the
saying Of saves or "credOs" was effica-
ciOus-then the time is for the most part
lost. 1t is too much like gathering a
miscellaneous assortment of pieces of
cloth and never having them made into
clothes which can be worn. The sub
stance Of the matter is to read for the sake
of finding out something and to get at
the information in the quickest way. A
great part Of the historical books have
been written with no conception of the
wants Of readers who are not already
familiar, In general way, with the
subject, and therefore prepared to be
interested in details. The genealOgy
