To-Day the Atlantic & Pacific Rail
| way will come into the full measure
of its usefulness, through transcontinen-
tai trains being startei, for tho first
time, ON this shortest and most eligible
of all tho through lines across the CONT
nent. From the Mojave to the Needles
il cannot be said that there is anything
specially inviting along theroute. When
the Colorado river has been reached and
passed, however, and within fifteen
miles from tho passage OF this historic
stream there is q grave change for the
better. The road then passes from a
desert to wooded country. Very soon
it plunges into region OF cedars, and is
succeeded, in the San Francisco noun
tains, by royal pine timber ranges,
whose value will steadily increase.
Wood is wood in section like that
traversed by tho Atlantic Il Pacific, just
as fuel is fuel anywhere. The probabil-
ity is that the scaliest looking portions
of this road are those which will ulti-
mately yield the heaviest returns in mint
ed dollars, nature being capricious in
such matters We look, in the near
future, for tremendous mineral results in
the angle formed by California, Nevada,
Arizona and Utah, near the crossing OF
the Colorado by this road. Already
very fine things have been achieved at
Calico and other points as incidents OF
this railway extension. The future
Comstock lodos OF the United States are
to be looked for in the mineral region
which has been opened up by tho mar
riage of the Mojave branch OF the
Southern Pacific, at or near the Needles,
with the Atlantic & Pacific Railway

We are told, though not en cathedra,
that Roscoe Conkling is in favor of the
nomination Of Arthur as the Republican
candidate for President in 1884, with the
supplemental information that Conkling
thinks that, although Arthur has kept
Robertson in office, he has made pretty
good President. This Is really deep
and subtle way Of saying that Conkling
is implacable in his resentment. He
could not, by any possibility, get any
deeper or more thorough vengeance than
to see his sometime henchman fairly put
up in the national alley to be bowled
down most incontinontly. The way the
Presidential Turveydrop would be
taken in and done for in q Presidential
inning would make tho head Of an aver
age politician swim for o week.

Anecdote of the Late General
Chanzy

The following remarkable anecdote i;
told of the late General Chanzy; A lev
months after the signature of peace a
Bordeaux, Chanzy was in his seat as dep
uty at the Versailles Assembly, when 4
messenger informed him that a person
earnestly requested an interview about {
matter of the utmost Importance. He
went out and found himself in the pres
ence of a gray haired, soldiery looking
man, dressed in deep mourning. Gen
eral, said the latter, after apologizing
for disturbing him, 81 reside in the
provinces. lost my son in the enyirons
Of Mans in one of the engagements
which preceded the lest battle, and, in
spite OF my inquiries, have been I'M
able to ascertain where he fell. My
name," he added, sis well known one;
perhaps you recollect my son. Can you
tell me where he died?'
The General at once recognized the
name uttered, and also that the son in
quired after had been taken as deserter
and shot by his orders in the presence OF
the army. Painful though it was TO
reveal the truth to the father, Cen
eral Chanzy did not hesitate. and
with tears in his eyes described
the whole circumstances, adding,
at was my duty to make an ex-
amle, monsieur" His companion re-
mained for an instant stunned by the
blow; but recovering himself, he an
swered land it was this answer which SO
struck the General with admiration),
"Smce he has disgraced himself, You did
right, General. He is better dead than
dishonored. As parent | may grieve,
but as Frenchman / thank you" 1t is
said that the incident made deep i'm
preston on Chanzy's mind, and that he
could never relate it without deep emo
ton.

In is not too much to say that Billy
Malone will find himself very materially
handicapped, in his present campaign in
Virginia, by the outgiving of the Su-
preme Court of the United States anent
the Civil Rights bill. His ability to
marshal the colored hosts will be very
materially curtailed by that solemn adj
judication. Defeated in his first san
guino expectation of forty acres and a
mule, as the original price of his adhe-
renee to the Republican party; appalled,
at the disappearance of his savings in
the Freedman's Bank, of which the
Christian soldier, Gen. o. o. Howard,
was the Corypheus, the Colored Man
and Brother is in the mood of exclaim-
ing, ''What shall do TO be saveds" Tho
probability is that, in his moment of
desperation, he will have recourse to
the men who, even in his worst days,
supplied him literally with Hog and
Hominy. As the thing goes now, the
"nigger" gets nothing. He is butchered
in the house of his friends, However
primitive his logical processes may be,
he win probably reach that conclusion
formulated by Shakespeare in the apho-
rism that "rich gifts wax poor whom the
giver proves unkind." Whatever other
effects the late decision of tho Republi-
can Supreme Court of the United States
may have, it will certainly emancipate
the colored man from his blind devotion
to the Republican party.

TnE Lieutenant Governor of Penn.
sylvania, the Hon. Chauncey Black, has
announced it to be his purpose to write
biography OF his father, the illustrious
Judge Jeremiah s. Black. The son has
inherited many Of the gifts of his match
less father; and, from his intimacy with
the late statesman, and his possession OF
a wealth Of documentary lore, we may
well look for work OF absorbing politi
cal and historical interest. Governor
Black has distinguished himself as Q
journalist in the sense OF his having con
tributed largely and acceptably to the
newspaper literature Of the day. A
man trained to the severe intellectual
methods Of his father-the greatest oil
Pennsylvauians--ca cannot fail to acquit
himself with credit in his new field.

The press of the United States has
lately been rightly engaged in comment
ing consciously upon the toad.eating
programme to foreigners which was an
incident of the late opening of the
Northern Pacific Railway. Doubtless
this feature of the ceremonies was de-
signed as a material part of the great
hurrah which was to boom Northern Pa
citic stock. With this end in view, Eu-
ropean snobs without number were given
carte blanche as to their personal eX-
penses, and they abused the privilege to
the top of the bent of their foolish en-
tertainers. 1t was mistake from sew
eral points of view; that is to say, from
the standpoints of good taste and
pecuniary outcome, Mulhtudes of
crude people witnessed the driving of
the golden spike to whom new and
undeveloped country conveyed no les.
sons whatever, save Of discouraging
character; and who, in their communi-
cations to their friends in Europe and
elsewhere, dwelt altogether upon the
barren aspect of country of whose
latent possibilities they knew nothing.
These strangers are utterly ignorant of
the fact that country which is appar-
emily sterile may be made to blossom as
the rose, and that repellent.loolSing
mountains may have incompatible riches
in their depths. They write and talk as
"tenderfoots" and tyros; and, as the
natural result OF their presence in large
numbers at the opening of the road, the

stocks Of the Northern Pacific Railway
and subsidiary enterprises have gone
down almost to zero since the
ostentatious expenditure Of large fund,
which was intended to have had Just
the contrary effect. Willard ought b.
have learned lesson from jay Gould,
who, just preceding the panic Of 1873,
inaugurated an identicslly similar ex-
pertinent. With such cappers as Schuy-
Ter Colfax and other accommodating
statesmen of that ilk to ave an American
eclat to the business, lie organized an
immense excursion of Germans to
Duluth and the 'bad lands" of Dakota,
with the result that the uninstrnctod
Germans, who knew nothing OF the con-
cealed capabilities Of such lands, wrote
home to their friends to stand from
under, thus wrecking Jay Gould and bis
gang. History has simply repeated

5 JUpoE TooHY, of San Francisco, the
other day, delivered a judgment which
will work wonders in restraining brutal
assaults upon women. He sentenced
one kyle, otherwise known as ''Fai
Jack, " to fifty years in the Folsom prison
for outraging helpless old woman.
Crimes of unbridled lust are becoming
alarmingiy frequent all over the United
States, and noticoably so in San Fran
cisco. In some of the Scandinavian
countries and in some OF the States Of
the American Union the penalty of death
is dealt out to him who commits the
crime of rape. 1t is really the only
proper penalty. In many of the States,
where lighter penalties are adjudged, a
good-natured mob relieves the law oil
much concern in such matters, to the
great saving of outlay upon the part OF
the Commonwealth, and to the great
good OF the community, we cannot help
thinking.

Theology and Beer in Germany.
Boston Adyertiser,l

Boston Advertiser,
The Luther festivities in Wittenberg,
Germany, must have been quite lively
In the refectory of the old Luther house
the theological students had "kom-
mems, or drinking bout, ut which two
court preachers presided. One of these
was DR.. Kogel, illustrious for his
orthodoxy; the other was Stockcr, who
is the anti-Semitic head OF the
Christian socialists. The room was
decorated with silk flags of Luther's
time, with the inscription, "DisjuRctos
masae juRgaRt' which might be fully
translated, Though we disagree in
many things, we are united when we
drink and shout" At the head of the
beer table stood an old drinking table of
the fifteenth century. The same jour
nal which reports this drinking bout
presents notice of the Jus potandi-the
claw of Drinking, republished after
the edition of 1916, and notice of some
other books specially dedicated to every
good zechkumpan, or professional
drinker.
