"WHAT in the hill are we here
for if not the offices ?" was the sud-
den, prOfanely emphatic, but en-
barrassing, pertinent enquiry hurled
by Flanagan, OF Texas, at his CO.
delegates in the Republican cOnVen-
ton at Chicago in 1880. "What are
we Democrats for il not the offices ,"
seems equally to be the vital prin-
cipIe and cohesive power that sus-
tains and uphOlds the Readjuster
party of Tennessee. They are will
ling to throw all the time-honored
principles, all the antecedents and
u5ages Of the true Democratic party
of the State and Nation to the
winds if they can only secure the
offices.
1t is an unwarrantcd and unjust
prostitution of Democratic princi-
pies and will not be submitted to
by the Democracy of Tennessee.
If they can give no better reason
why the people should vote for
their man and platform than that
they want the offices, they will
find themselves wofully beaten in
this race. Democracy stands on a
higher plane than this.

THE Half-breeds are very much
tickled over the name "Bailey-
doaks" which was invented by the
Annanias of the Gu, and have
been using it on any and all occa-
sions; but we heard of couple who
applied the name to State Credit
gentleman, the other day, and they
got upon their ears (pretty tall
climbing, by the way) when he re-
torted, by addressing them as
"Snodgrass-savages." Mem :"Peo-

A New Drug Store.

Mr.. b. r. Veasey, of the well known
firm of Morrison & Veasey. druggists,
at the corner of Second and King streets
has fitted up drug store at the South.
west corner of Eighth and Madison
streets, thus meeting long felt
want in that neighborhood. The store
has been fitted up In neat and attrac-
tive manner and stocked with a fresh
supply of drugs, chemicals, perfumery,
etc. The papering and painting were
done by A. z. Jackson & Bro, 515
Tatnall street, and reflects credit on
their ability as painters and wall deco
rators. Mr.. Veasey has been engaged
in the drug business for number OF
years, cons equently his experience is
large and varied and we bespeak for
him a liberal share of the public pat
ronage. While Mr.. V. will devote his
entire attention to his new store, he
will still retain his interest in the firm
of Morrison & Veasey. He is young
and reliable man and persons living in
the vicinity of his place Of business
need have no fears, but all prescrip.
tions entrusted to his care will receive
careful attention and nothing but first.

A Funny French Jeweller.

The Fort Wayne, Ind, Sentinel tells
a laughable story about a popular jew.
eller of that flourishing Hoosier me-
tropolis named Louis Sauser, of No.
223 Calhoun street, who is a French
man, and has the vivacity Uf a Gaul
strongly seated. The other day he paid
dollar to a neighbor for half Of ticket
No. 1851 in the April Drawing of the
Louisiana State Lottery in the way of
kindness, and in a few days after had
SIS, 900 shipped him in gold from New
Orleans, La. He took 1t so hard that
he postponed the remainder Of his
business for that day and sent his Gus
TONERS home. On June 18th Generals
G. T. Beauregard of Louisiana, and
Jubal A. Early of Virginia, will scat.
ter over $5O0,0OO, and any one may
have hand in the affair on application
to M. A. Dsuphin, New Orleans, La.

Cape May improvements.

A party of Philadelphia capitalists
have purchased the very valuable tract
of land fronting on the coast at Cape
May, and known as the Mount Vernon
property. These gentlemen have or
ganized an association under the title
OF the Cape May Land Company, and
the intention is to put the newly ac-
quired purchase in such condition as to
materially enhance its value. Hand.
some wide houseyards will be laid out,
the entire property will be under.
drained, and such other Improvements
made as to make it one of the most at.
tracttve places of this famous summer
resort. The grounds will be laid out
much after the style of Elberon, each
street being main thoroughfare, and
the lots are to be cut so as to run from
street to street. With the improve.
ments thus made and the facilities for
rapid transit afforded by the West Jer.
sey Railroad, Cape May promises to
rise from the lethargy into which it
has fallen and become the most popu.
lar resort on the Jersey coast.

her to name the dag. Althougn he was
accompanied by his sister as an evi.

A Wilmington BOY.

There are no doubt many of our citi
zeus who forty odd years ago remem
Der bri ght eyed and promising little
lad Cat Gayley's school on Quaker
Hill, by the name of James Il. Garrett
son, or as he was usually called Jimmy
iGarretson. He was born among us,
therefore we feel satisfaction and
pride in claiming him as q Delawa-
rean.
When young man aud about to enter
the active arena OF life, he left Will.
mington and many of his acquaintances
who have lost a record of him, will be
glad to learn that Delaware has abun-
dant reason to be proud of him. This
little Wilmington boy is now the cele.
brated surgeon who has done more in
the way of simplifying complex surgi-
cal operations, and devised more new
ones thanany other surgeon living. In the
use of surgical engine DR.. Garretson Is
universally admitted to stand without a
peer. His latest performance with this
instrument being the extraction of the
second branch of the 5th nerve at the
base of the skull, an operation as
heretofore practiced avowedly SO com
plicated and difficult, that it has been
less frequently attempted than any
other in surgery.
But 1t is not alone in his profession
as medical man that DR.. Garretson
has attained an exalted position. As
an author he is widely read. With a
practice so large as to demand the major
portion of his time, he has notwith-
standing, found opportunities to write
number of valuable works. His sys-
tenn of Oral Surgery circulates in eve.
ry part of the world where surgery is
known. Its value can be estimated by
its imm 4nse sale in Europe.
His "Odd hours of Physician" has
already passed to the third edition.
He is also the author of "John Darby
Hour,," "Thinkers and Thinking"
and 1.-TWO Thousand Years After" this
last being continuation of "Plato's
Ph91o." The Boston Literary World,
in reviewing the work, remarks that
.'it is short step from Plato's own
writings" and further adds. cdr. Gar
retsou Is among the most sensible, terse
and epigramatic writer's living"
j. &. Lippencott & Co. have just
issued DR.. Garretsons latest produce
ton, entitled "Brushland," and it is
not say ing too much to predict it a
wide popularity. 1t is to our mind the
best work of that character he has
written. The vigorous and effective
style so strikingly manifested in his
earlier books is observed in this with
an increased force of expression and
imagery. We predict for Brushland
an immense circulation and congratu-
late our former townsman upon the ad.
vent of this, his youngest literary bant-
ling.
DR.. Garretson sails with his family
for Europe about the middle of the
present month and We wish them a
pleasant tour and safe return home.

CONGRESS Yesterday.

In the U. s. Senate, yesterday, Q
Acting Secretary read note from Pres
ident protempore Davis, as follows
Gas shall be absent from the opening
of the session this morning, under the
provision of rule 4, l name the Hon.; il
j. Ingalls,, Senator from the State o.
Kansas, to.perform the duties of the
chair until the adjournment to-day
Mr.. Vest raised the point that the Pres.
ident pro tempore chad not power to
delegate Senator take his place which
under circumstances, could emily be fill-
ed by an election by the Senate" Mr.,
Hoal suggested that Mr.. Ingalls, be de.
clared the presiding officer for the day,
and long discussion followed upon
the point whether the designation OF
Mr.. ingalls, shouldbe made by affirming
the right of the President pro tempore
to select or by the direct action of the
| Senate.
In the course ef the discussion, Mr.
Morgan urged the gravity of the ques-
tion. He said that "no Vice President
of the United States now exists, and
the Senate had repeatedlyand uniform
y held that the President of the Senate
j. elected only for the time he is in atten-
dance, and that the body has power to
supplant him at any time" He held
the absence Of the Senator this morning
created vacancy in that office as com.
pletely as if its incumbent had been re
moved by vote of the Senate.
If the President of the United States
should die during the day, the Senator
now chosen President of the Senate,
being clothed with all the legal and con-
stitutional responsibilities of this office,
would succeed to the Presidency of the
United States, even though he had been
chosen to preside only for the day."
Other members followed Mr.. Morgan
in discussion of the question, and Mr..
Ferry held that "the President pro.
tempore had the right to designate a
member to act in his place only when
he himself was present for this purpose
and that otherwise the designation was
dependent for its validity upon the
acquiescence OF the Senate" There
was no direct dissent from this opinion
on the part of any of the speakers but
finally, the Senate, being apparently
unwilling to take positive action on the
Iuoseloll pioClpl1dtol upon ~, dBEeou W

In the House, the contested case of
Lowe vs. Wheeler, from the Eighth Dis.

Representative Robinson, Of N. Y,
yesterday had a long interview with
Postmaster General, during which he
urged a Sunday delivery of the mails
and the reduction of letter postage to
one cent. The Postmaster General said
the matter should receive immediate
attenti The argument for Sunday de
livery is that "as the mails are brought
into several Offices on Sunday, as the
clerks are present to receive them, 1t
wouli be much more convenient and nc
more expensive for the mails to be i'm
mediately distributed than to have them
locked up for thirty or forty hours,
while it would add but little work to
the carriers.
