SEWERAGE.

Now that Lambertville is practically
out of debt, it is time that some steps
should be taken to introduce system of
sewerage. We do not want slip-shod
system, but perfect one, and to get that
it is necessary that careful consideration
be given to it and that competent men be
secured to plan it. 1t is not necessary
that the entire work be done at once.
After the plan for the entire city is de-
cided upon, that part most needed should
be done first, and the work gradually com
pleted, as the finances of the city may
warrant
We do not want an expensive system,
bait to carry off the surface water, but a
system similar to that adopted in Mem
phis, which is known as the Waring sys-
tenn, and is designed simply to carry of
slop and kitchen water, and water-closet
contents.
The Waring system, it is stated has
been introduced into Little Rock. Ark,
Omaha, Neb., Kalamazoo, Mich, Biz
mingham, Ala, Norfolk, Va, Wilkes
barre, Pa, Pittsdeld, Mass. and Keene,
N. II. In each of the cases where the
system is in full working order the ut
most satisfaction is experienced.

We never did think much of profess.
sional "reformers," in our legislature.
They generally turn cut to be frauds in
disguise. Senator Applegate, of Mon
mouth, attempted the position in the late
session, being conspicuous in his efforts
to cut down tae prices for printing. Judg-
ing from the following from the Trenton
Daily Emporium he does not seem to be
much of an improvement upon previous
reformers.
In commenting upon statement that
the Senator had been the means Of reduc-
ing the printing rates nearly twenty five
per cent, and had thereby made great
saving to the State, the Emporiun says:
And thanks to Senator AppIegate, the
lawyers fees were raised at every point
and in every bill where he had a chance
to get them in. He introduced a bill.
which fortunately for the taxpayers did
not get through, to fix the salaries Of
Prosecutors, under which, had it become
law, the Prosecutors of Monmouth and
Burlington would receive double their
present liberal compensation. The in
crease would be proportionaly large in
some other counties, running to $4,000 in
Essex and so, 400 in Hudson. Senator
Applegate is lawyer, and proposes to
take care of his own--practcing his econo-
my elsewhere. lie was elected by STAFF

THE EDITORIAL CHAIR.-Editor Wat
terson. in the Louisville Ky Courier
Journal, speaks as follows about conduct
ing newspaper: Some people esti-
mate the ability of periodical and the
talent Of its editor by the quantity Of its
original matter. 1t is comparatively an
easy matter for frothy writer to string
out column Of words on any and AL
subjects. His ideas may flow in one
weak, wasby everlasting Hood and the
command of his language may enable
him to string them together like punches
of onions, and yet his paper may be but
| meagre and poor concern Indeed, the
mere writing part of editing paper, is
but small portion Of the work. The
care, the time employed in selecting, is
far more important, and The fact of a
good editor is better shown by his select
ions than anything else and that, we
know, is half the battle. But, we have
said an editor ought to be estimated, his
labor understood and appreciated, by the
general conduct Of his paper--its tone, its
| uniform, consistent course, aims, manli-
ness, its dignity and its propriety. To
preserve these MS they should be pre-
served is fully enough to occupy the
| time and attention Of any man. If tc
this be added the general supervision OF
| the details Of publication which most ed
itors have to encounter, the wonder Is
how they get time to write at all. "

The FATE OF AN ANCIENT WEATHER
PROPHET The career of Virgins calls
to mind the punishment which Dean
Swift and some of his friends inflicted
upon weather prophesying impostor in
Queen Anne's time, known ms Partridge.
the almanac maker Partridge started in
life as shoemaker but he soon left that
for the more profitable and less laborious
pursuits of quack, prophet, and humbug
generally. His pretensions imposed on
credulous people and his amanacs were
bought by the thousands. To show what
sorry quacks Virgins and Nennor are,

told storms in March and December
showers in April, hot weather in August,
and frosts in November, and made as loud
boasts II hit was made.
Swift became disguised at Partridge
pretensions, and determined to put him
down. Walking around London one day,
he noticed over a smiths shop the sign,
Isaac Bickerstaff." 1t struck his fancy,
and he stored it in his memory for future
use. In January, 170S, Partridge came
out with his almanac as usual. A few
weeks afterward London was astonished
by the publication OF a small sheet, which
purported to contain the predictions OF
Isaac Bickerstaff, astrologer. 1t made a
profound sensation, and the sale was
great. Instead of the vague and ndeh-
mite hints at futurity which Partridge S
almanacs contained, it foretold foreign
and domestic events with the greatest par
ticularity, giving even the hour of the
day when Deaths of famous men, great
victories and defeats should occur. But
one statement created the most talk for
at II o'clock on the Goth of March it was
predicted that Partridge, the almanac
maker, would die. Partridge himselfstout-
ly denied its truth but it was of no use.
On the 30th of March another pamphlet
came out giving circumstantial account
of his death, after q sincere repentance of
his sins and confession of the worthless
ness of his almanc. Everybody believed
he was dead, and Partridge was never
able to convince the public that he was
still alive. 1t broke up his business, and
in few years he really did die. 1t is a
pity that the Dean isn't still on earth to
deal with Vennor aud Virgins. A dose
of ridicule is probably the most eifsctual
weapon which can be used against them,
and the Dean was master Of the art

that the so-called portrait of the Senator,

Kafirs unless they were in strong parties
and desired to fight, and as we marched
along by day the Kafirs, in loose order and
in parties of two or three. would hang upon
our tanks and rear, showing themselves
upon the high ground, but keeping ont of
range of our muskets. One night four of
us were sitting crosslegged round little
fire on which we had put our coffee. kettle to
boil, aud as we thus sat q report followed
by the ping OF bullet close over our beads,
warned us TINT Kairs were proving about.
This was followed by several other shots,
which struck the ground quite close to us,
but we were tired and cold and hungry, hay
ing had no food all day, and we were unwill-
ing to lie down to sleep on the bare ground
with empty stomacLs We therefore deter
mined, in spite of danger, TO keep the fire
burning until the coffee was ready and to
1urry this, one of rs stopped down TO blow
die fire with his mouth, when another shot
settled the matter, for n bullet passing be

scattered the embers about the head of the
one who was blowing the fire.. How close
tho bnllet passed to his head may be mag
