An audience which comfortably filled
the parquet circle and the gallery in
Fulton opera house last evening assem-
bled to witness the presentation Of The
World" The play has been seen here
several times before and has always
drawn well There has been renewal oi
the scenery, which is now really fine and
attractive. Mr.. J. Il. Little still assumes
the leading roIa, and does it with his
usual ability and carucstncss. His sup
port is about the same as in other seasons
aud fills the requirements OF the piece
which in fact secures much of its success
from its scenic effects, aud which in truth
deserve TO be seen and appreciated.

IT seems that the adage " a prophet is
not without honor save in his own cOuu.
try" "applies to that distinguished Repub.
lican representative of Bay state wisdom
Hon. Geo. Frisbie Hoar. 1t is an old and
laudable custom at Republican headquar-
ters in that commonwealth that claims
John l.. Sullivan AZ one Of its foremost
citizens, to allow visitors from the out
lying districts to select speakers whom
there is general desire to hear in their
localities. Among the two or three hun
dred available stump orators, a large per.
centage have been given dates, but no
one has yet expressed an oyerweening
desire to hear Senator Hoar. This decl
sion shows that Massachusetts, Republi-
cans have more than the ordinary
amount of political acumen. Aud when
the fame of their discreet conduct gets
abroad, it will do much to offset the
growing belief that the Bay state has
lost its Athenian culture TO become the
home of the ball tosser and the prize
fighter.

GOVERNOR CLEVELAND Of New York,
in his admirable address on the duties aud
responsibilities of citizenship at the Oswe
gatchie IN. - fair on Thursday last
admOnished his farmer auditors that they
had something else TO do besides claiming
the full yield from the soil He said
90 You have the responsibility of citizen
ship upon you, and you should see to 1t
that you dc your duty to the stats, not
only by increasing its wealth by the cult
vatiOn aud improvement Of the soil, but
by the intelligent selection of those who
shall act for you in the enactment and
execution of your laws" These are timely
words in the present canvass in this state
where the question OF personal fitness is
more TO DO considered than the diversity
Of party principles. If each voter could
b ing himsslf 70 believe that the interests
Of the state were as important a. his
| own business interests, there would be less
blind following of leaders and more intel
| ligent discrimination in voting. No EN-.
ployer would think Of retaining in hi,
service an emp'oye who persistently vic
lated his plain Instructions Yet this is
precisely what the present auditor genera
aud state treasurer are doing when they
hinder the enforcement of the Humes act.
The election of Niles aud Livsey will per-
petuate these methods, while the success
Of Tdggart and Powell means better care
ol the states moneys, The treasury ring
must go.

The London Lancet indorses an opinion
recently delivered by Mr.. Spence Bate, +.
X. s., and long since maintained by the
few thoughtful dentists, that human teeth
among the cultivated classes are in pro-
cess OF degeneracy. The dentine" il

spaces not found in the savage races max

is becoming Opaque. Moreover, which is
more serious, the development Of the Gran
uim which follows cultivation is attended
with shrinking in and weakening of the
jaws, till there is not room for tho teeth
These facts being granted, the question
arises whether these symptoms will end il
decay OF the race, or in extinction OF
each cultivated class as it springs up, the
learned perishing while the barbarian,
below them flourish. Tho latter is the NOR,
probable, for nature seems opposed to TIA,
