The Saturday Review.
Mr. Nasmyth has a proper love for cats,
and that with the generosity and sense Of
Justice which characterize him he gives
that most admirable animal the credit OF
having been "the original inventor off a
sanitary process which has lately been
patented and paraded before. the public as
4 sanitary novelty" This love Of cats
seems 10 have been inherited, and Mr..
Nasmyth tells US Of an aged relative Of his
who used TO say hts prayers in . loud voice,
concluding by praying Tor aid to forgive all
who had injured him, except John An
derson O. the Toonhead, for he killed my
cat, and him I'll meier ioRie!" Moreover,
one OF the last victims Of superstition In
Scotland was member Of the Nasmyth
family, who was burned as q witch because
she kept four black cats, rnd read the Bible
with two parts Of spectacles.

Gov. HALLS MEssAGE.-The two
houses of the Legislature organized on
Tuesday, as per caucus of the night
before, and Gov. Halls last message
was read. 1t is considered a good
paper and more progressive in its
recommendation than most of the
recent messages. More than half of it
relates to the finances of the State, and
the whole to various items that he
thinks should claim their attention,
and very properly gives national poll
tics the go by. He congratulates them
on the healthy state of our finances
but does not recommend reduction of
the taxes. He recommends that a
part of the revenue now flowing into
the general fund shall be diverted to
the support of public schools, that New
Castle county should have increased
representation, that better arrange
ments should be made for the extradi-
tion from this State of fugitives from
justice, that the benefits of House
of Refuge outside of the State F" ought
to be secured for our youthful crimi
nails; that the State Militia is entitled
to favorable regard; that immigra
tion from other States and countries
ought to be encouraged, and to thii
end he recommends the appointment
Of an immigration Commissioner; tina
our large and productive fishing inter
est ought to be iptelligently protected
and assisted; and that an effectiv
method of putting an end to bribery il
our elections ought to be devised an
put in operation at once. The recon
mendations of Gov. Hall seem prompt
ed in the interest of the public gOOt
and it is tc be hoped that the Legisls
ture will work with the same end i
view.

The Legisiature.

The Legislature properly met on
Tuesday, but the members of the body
and large number Of Office seekers
met at Dover on Monday to decide in
caucus who should have the Offices.
The result in the Senate was as fol-
lows: s. B. Cooper of Kent was elected
Speaker. Mr.. Cooper is 55 years old
and was a member of the House in
1871. He Is the holding-over Senator
from last term. c. w. Wiley Of
Lewis, Sussex county, was elect ed
Clerk. He Is 80 years old and is said
to be one Of the best educated men 10
the State. lie Is considered an excel
lent choice. A. J. Taylor Of New
Castle, was elected Sergeant-at-Arms
the Rev. L. w. Gibson Of the PrOtes-
tant Episcopal Church, Dover, Chap
lain, and Harry F. Goodwin of Dover
Messenger.
The result of the caucus in the Sem
ate is a clean victory for the anti

The Erery EUening that is so OPP
posed to Local Option that it would
rather see nine out of every ten men
drunkards than to enforce temperance
by law, commends the License law of
Nebraska that imposes a high license,
$500 in towns and $1,000 in the cities.
The Morning NeaCs that deplores the
prevalent drunkenness and is willing
for any proper measure that will rem
edy it, makes the following remarks on
the general subject of liquor legisla-
ton:
at will be long time, if ever, be-
fore the sale Of strong drink can be
abolished in our larger cities. Wher-
ever the attempt has been made to
apply the principle of local option in
cities the friends of liquor selling have
come out successfully. The correct
theory of local option, as such, does
not mean that all the people of State
nor even for a county, shall vote for
or against prohibition. The proper in
tent and meaning are that the people
of small districts, hundreds or wards
shall pass judgement upon this question
as far as it affects their own limited
community. This seems to be the
only fair and legitimate construction o
local option as applied to the liquor
traffic. Wilmington has perfect righ
to prohibit the sale of liquor for itself
but it has no right to determine
whether liquor shall, or shall not b'
sold in St. Georges or East Dover hun
dreds. This is reasonable and in accorC
with the principle of local self-govern
ment

We gave a week or two ago peeu-
liar feature of Southern life. The fol-
lowing is a second chapter on the same
subject:
Nothing has been so nnderFated as
the oppossum's tail. Baked 'possum,
of course, is highly esteemed by all
colored brethren who possess a sharp
axe, cur dog and sufficient length Of
limb to keep out of the reach of the en-
ragged farmer who is apt to puneInate
his objections to the indiscriminate
telling of his trees with a shotgun !;
but the tail of the 'pOssum has been
wrongfully looked upon with scorn. A
man in North Carolina makes it his
business to collect 'pOssums, which he
sells during the Christmas holidays.
Lately he arrived from the mountains
with drove of l23 which he is stated
to have urged along the roads as
Though they were so many hogs Al
might he secures his drove by means
Ot pOl%s, having ten 'possuns to the
pole, and keeps three dogs barking al
night, which so frightens the 'pOssum'
that they hold firm grip to the pole
with their tails until the sl:n is up.

tail as a patent automatic tie rein i

Gamer. Stephen w. Shockley, of
Lincoln, Sussex county, was the choice
of the caucus for Sergeant-at-Arms,
and Joseph Waller for Messenger.
The session of the House caucus
lasted until nearly midnight. Mr..
Bates was elected on the first ballot,
his opponent being Thomas H. Denney'
of Kent. ..
Tuesday, the two Houses went
through the formal organization.
The Senate met at 1915 with Senator
Horsey in the chair and Senator Belts
as Secretary. The officers caucused
for, were duly elected, and installed.
Messrs. Roe and Cooper were appointed
to notify the Governor of their readi-
ness to receive the Message. The
Clerk was authorized to subscribe for
a daily paper for each member, and
for two copies of each daily and three
of each weekly in the State, for the
use of the Senate.
In the House, Mr.. Denny was called
to the chair, and Mr.. Sutton acting as
Clerk. The officers were then elected
and the Governors Message read, and
1900 copies ordered to be printed
Two or three bills were introduced, but
the indications are that they will ad
iourn over from to-day until Monday
when the Speakers will be ready to re
port the Committees, who will properly
act on the bills introduced.

SENATOR EDMUNDs bill, prohibiting
political assessments has passed the
Senate and only needs the sanction OF
the House to become a law, having
been recommended by the President in
his last message. 1t not Only prohibits
the levying of assessments by those in
government employ, but also prohibits
the dismissal of employees in the gov
erument service on account of their
refusal to pay the amount assessed.
The Senate also passed last week, by
ADHESIVE vote, the Civil Service Reform
Bill. 1t was so amended as TO be 9
very different measure from what Wa'
intended, applying to clerkships, but is
a good beginning. 1t is yet to b.
acted on by the House, but there i
little doubt that it will pass.
