Young MEN.

The young men have controlled
affairs in West Virginia ever since the
Democracy came into power. This
state had the distinction of elevating to
high official positions the youngest
member, for the time, of the Lower
House of Congress, the youngest Gov
crnOr occupying the chair Of the Chief
Magistry of any Of the States, of elect
ing to the most exalted legislative body
in the world the youngest member Of
the United States Senate. Almost
every one of the State officers since the
Democratic party gained control in this
~iate have been young men. The Au-
uitOrs for twelve years have been young
Zen; the Treasures have been young
and middlr-aged men; the Superinteu-
dent of Schools is q young man; the
attorney Generals have all been y Dung
men at the time of their service; the
present Governor was the choice of the
young men as against the venerable
aud accomplished Mr.. FAULKNER.
The young men Of the State have
had full control Of affairs since the old
moss backs, FOREMAN, STEVENSON
and the Know-Nothing horde of pro-
scriptiOnists wereput out of the public
positions they so outrageously abused
during their reign Of tyranny and plum
der.
The young, progressive men have the
call-the men Of youthful enthusiasm
and manly vigor. They have ruled in
the past and theT will rule in the future
so long as the Democracy remains in
lower: and that will be long time.

According to the dispatches, Mr..
DAVID DAVIS wishes it to be under
stood that he is entirely out Of politics.
He intends for the balance OF his days
to devote himself to his private affairs
and to the enjoyment of the matrimo-
nial life upon which he recently enter
ed. The ex-senator must feel infinite
~ relieved. During tue last decade he
has been occupying most uneomforta-
BILE position on the political fence. In
the Senate he heroically maintained
the balance Of power between the con-
tending lines of Republicans and Demo-
Gratis. This was feat for which he
never received the'credit that was due
him. Had he descended upon either
side the political equilibrium Of the Re-
public would have been upset and the
centre of party gravity shifted from its
base. All the other unmarried eandi-
yates for the Presidency should follow
the wise example of Mr.. DAVIS. There
is, for instance, Mr.. TILDEN. Why no.

W0rth1ey.

In Yesterday mornings Journal We referred
70 the arrest of man in Wiscasset, for theft
IN Augusta. Sunday he was brought to this
CITY, His name is Henry Worthley and he
proves to be one of the boldeet thieves who
has ever operated in this vicinity. Not only
have his thefts been made in . daring man.
ner, but they have also been frequent. But
at the same time he seems to lack the judq-
ment and cunningness which thieves ordina-
rily possess. For some time past Worthley
has figured in Augusta as q horse trainer.
chiefly being engaged in receiving young
horses from the owners and breaking
them. Friday he started away from the city
with team belonging to Henry NJ. Sawtelle
of Sidney. After his departure the suspi-
cions of parties here were aroused and the
arrest of Worthley was decided on. Ac-
cordingly the telegraph was used and the f.l
low was arrested in Wiscasset, as above
stated. II is believed that he intended to sell
the team and leave the State. Before
leaving Augusta he told man that he xas
''going West" as he had a good job out
there. At Gardiner and other places on his
route to Wiscasset men were found to whom
he had endeavored to sell the team. He was
unsuccessful in disposing of it, however, as
people Wiscasset way were acquainted with
his character and suspected that the team did
not belong to him.
Recently Worthley sold a skeleton
and harness belonging to Arthur Jones of
Winthrop. These belonged with horse
which the thief had in his possession to train
for Mr.. Jones. At another time Howard
Petingill. who resides on the east side, put
team into Worthley's hands that he might
train his horse. The thief had not had the team
an hour before he sold the harness The
fellow also stole bride belonging to C. c.
Hunt, lent it to another man who again loaned
it to some one else. 1t is asserted that the
thief has been guilty of many other pilferings
which have not come to light Yesterday
forenoon Worthley was arraigned before
Judge Andrews for stealing a watch of
stolen the time-piece and snapped it
with Isaiah NJ. Furnish, the matchmaker, for
another watch, receiving Sl.50 to boot. The
prisoner plead guilty and was bound over to
the September term of court. Worthley is a
young man, about five feet nine inches in
height; has dark complexion; mustache and
close cut beard. One Of his relatives was
present at the trial and entreated the judge to
have mercy.

BY F. A. Pouchet, NJ. d., member of

Augusta, Me-, 1888; pages 1856, price 50 and

Such is the title of a book well-known to
students and amateurs of natural science, by
a writer whose fame is worldwide, and who
writes in that charming and agreeable style
which makes French book so. delightful to
read. Mr.. E McMurdie will soon present
the book here, and ought to meet with great
success, seeing that. considering the bulk and
STYLE of the book its price is very moderate,
not more than one fourth of what we remem-
Der was the price of the British edition. M.
Pouchet writes with recognition of Divine
wisdom as pervading and being illustrated
by the works on creation. His work is in
tended to inspire love for and admiration
of the wonderful phenomena of the universe
of which man is part. and which is given
him as school, full of object lessons for
him TO study. The work begins with the
animal kingdom, explores the region of in
visible life, mcroscopically revealed, passes
to the architects of the sea, coral workers
an! The like. investigates insect life and its
wells, glances at the ravagers Of forests
aud the protectors of agriculture, descants
ON the architecture of birds, and narrates the
migrations of animals. The vegetable king
don, is next entered on. We are told of the
anatomy of plants, of their physiology, of the
seed and its termination. The extremes of
plants-verv small and very great--and their
migrations form interesting chapters. Geol-
ogy is fully treated in its developments, fOs-
sils, phenomena of mountains, volcanoes, gla-
ciers. caverns, deserts. with the influences of
the air and IT'S corpusces. Furthermore the
astronomical expanses are spoken OF, and the
stars, nebula, solar system, with our sun, the
earth end moon and the comets pass in review.
| Monsters and superstitions form the theme
of the concluding chapter. An excellent index
| adds to the value of the book. There are also
275 engravings. many of them full page. The
type is excellent. the paper good. and the get
up of the book elegant and attractive. Such
| a book as this was needed for popular use.
Button and Goldsmith are out Of date; elo-

The hotels at Fort Popham, in which some
of our business people are interested, are now
open for the reception of guests. The Eu-
reka House is one of the most popular on the
Maine coast. Preparatory for the season of
1888 this well known Hotel has been newly
painted and refitted, and under the able man.
agement of Mr.. J. NJ. Taylor, of the Sagada-
hoe House, Bath, its present reputation will
be maintained. Since last season the Associ
alton have purchased the Ocean View House,
a fine new Hotel, built on prominent cliff.
rising from the beach within thirty or forty
rods of the Eureka and commanding broad
and unobstructed view of the ocean. This
House has received numerous alterations and
repairs with view to the comfort and enjoy
ment of guests and will be under the imme-
date management of Mr.. VIM. II. Thompson.
The Association have also built a new and
fast steamer, the Percy V. which will go on
the route betw cen Hunnewell's Point and Bath,
making two trips daily each way. Steamer
from Boston will make regular landings. A
restaurant has been fitted up at the steamboat
landing Bathing houses will be erected
during tho season.

The Flying Yankee,

A large and wondering crowd greeted the
"Flying Yankee yesterday as it bowled into
the Augusta station from st. John at 40 P.
NJ, promptly on time. The train was de-
layed here for a while by hot box, and ar
rived at Brunswick eight minutes late. A
large number of passengers from st. John
and Bangor were aboard. Everybody was
out to see the express as it sped along. All
the stations were crowded with sightseers.
When the evening express arrived, the re
was another large throng at the station.
Much disappointment was manifested be-
cause the Flying Yankee was not pulled by
the new locomotive. There is but one out
of the shop, however, and that is being
broken in on a freight train.

In the arrangement and conducting of the
races in Forepaugh's Hippodrome, which is
to exhibit here on Thursday, June 2sth, the
manner in which the races will be run, the
colors of the jockeys, the construction of the
chariots. etc. and the different animals put
upon the half mile-track, all will be in exact
keeping with the descriptions furnished from
historical sources, of the hippodrome races
of Rome and Greece, centuries ago. The
Roman jockeys rode as ours now do, in diff
ferent colors, particularly the companies of
charioteers, to distinguish themselves. There
were generally four, viz: green, red, white
and sky or sea color, especially under Calig-
ula and Nero. History states that Domitian
added two more colors, golden or yellow, and
purple; but these were soon laid aside by the
succeeding Emperors. Racing, indeed, ap-
pears, to have been SO favorite diversion of
the Romans that they practiced It with other
animals besides horses. Asses were made
coursers; and ostriches were competitors for
the goal. The tyrant Heliogabalus made
racing matches with elephants; four being
attached to each chariot. He also employed
camels for the same purpose.
