This campaign is not going to be run without
money. Whether the Republicans raise any
or not, the Democrats arc sure to have plenty.
I'm Ohio they have just finished struggle in
which they were supplied, as never before, from
the OVERLOOKING treasury of the Liquor-DcacIs
Associations. I'm Ncw-l FORK they have even
richer funds to draw upon. Every liquor seller
whose saloon is not closed on Sunday II of
course a natural contributor. But that, impor-

Democratic campaign money in this city can
always be surely drawn. With every gam

sorts habitually left ndiStwbcd for cause, the
party which rule, this city and profits by its

Assuredly such an accident that which
occurred last evening between two fcTybOats
ON the North River could not have happened
without great negligence on somebody's part.
It was beautifully clear night, and the river
was comparatively free from boats. If proper
signals had been given and needed a collision
would have been impossible. 1t is plain that
the blame can only be fixed by an official in
ouiry. The pilots contradict each other fatty
in every point except that there was collision.
That people all over the world do not realize
the necessity of proper building laws is certainly
not due to lack of fatal accidents to direct at
tention to the matter. Panics in crowded
churches schOOl-houses or places OF amusement
have been of frequent occurrence of late years
In many different countries, and yet little heed
seems to be given them. This mornings dis

II is stated that two Now-England colleges are
irving the experiment of cntrustng the discipline
Of the college to the students. The theory is that
if Young men are thus put on their honor they will
net in accordance with the principles Of honor.
But unfortunately the theory has not been hereto
fore found Of universal application in colleges. The
average young man who goes to school or college,
instead of knowing how to discipline Others, needs
long course of discipline himself. He Is sent to
college among other things TO learn the value OF
discipline and law; aud the best way to learn it is
admission to an authority wiser than his own.
We do not believe that the students are yet wise
enough to govern our colleges though of course
that Faculty will be tho wsest and most fortunate
which can enlist their cooperation.

The Supreme Court of the United States yes
terday handed down an important decision
which, however would have provoked hucll more
comment a few years ago than twill now 1t re,
lotcs TO those sections of the Civil Rights Act OF
1875 which were designed to secure equal ac-
commodations and privileges for colored people
in hotels, railway cars and places OF amuSe-
ment. The Court holds that these sections are
unconstitutional, and not cOrollaries OF the
XIIIth or XIVth Amendments; that the Alllth
Amendment relates only to slavery and lnvol-
untary servitude, and not to the necessary incl
dents and consequences Of these conditions, ana
that it has nothing to do with races and colors J;
that the XIVth Amendment does not give Con
gress power to provide process OF law Tor the
protection of life, liberty and property ID inc
States. The Act of 1875, however, holds good
in the District of Columbia and III the lci'l-
tories. Moreover, the decision, of course does
not prevent cOlorcd persons or white rom SUI
ing for their rights in State courts uhucr SUCH
laws as the States may pass separately

Turned Out OF a Pew.
London Society.


The Duke of Wellington, then residing at
Walmcr castle, had walked one Sunday eve
ming into Deal and entered the Trinity
church. After wandering about for some
time in search of tho sexton (who, as matter
of course, was engaged elsewhere), the duke
ensconced himself in a roomy looking pew in
front of the pnlpit. After short time g
lady, of portly and pompous Appearance, the
owner Of the pew, entered. After mutter-
ing prayer, she cast scowl at the in
truder which was intended to drive him out
Of the place he had taken. She had not the
least idea who he was, and would probably
have given her eyes, had she known him, to
have touched tho hem of tho great dukes
cloth coat, or asked for his autograph. See
ing that the stranger bore tho brunt of her
indignant glance without moving, the lady
biuntly told the duke as she did not know
him, that she must request he would imme-
diately leave her pow. His grace obeyed,
ana chose another seat. When he was leaving
the church at the end of tho service, and had
at last found the sexton, who received him
with many bows and salutations, he said

Wellington out Of her pow this evening"

When set at liberty he stood still and took a

stately dignity, traversed the intervening.

awaited him. The hens of tho flock didn't

A Rather Queer Coincidence.
Commercial AdperGser.


In the month of December, 1882 some
twenty or thirty of the many friends of the
Hon. A. j. Vanderpoel gave him dinner at
the Union League club, in this city. The
leading feature of the banquet, which was
attended by Judge Lawrence, Judge Van
new, Hon, Clarence A. Seward, and others,
was the menu, in which an apt Shaks-
pearian quotation followed the name of
every guest and every dish and wine.
About month ago Mr.. Henry Irving, the
actor, was sumptuously entertained by his
friends at dinner in London. Among those
present upon the occasion were Minister
Lowell, the Countess of Limerick, Lady Fran
ces Gordon Lady Constance Howard Lord
Bennett, General Francis Seymour, Mr.. Bur-
nand, of Pulch, and Mr.. Hardman, of the Post.
AS at tine Vanderpoel dinner, there was
Shakspearian menu, which was thought
to bo so very happy that in the ac-
counts of the banquet which appeared
In the London newspapers 1t was copied
in full, Upon receipt of the London
papers containing the accounts, the enter
tainers of .Vanderpoel were both surprised
and amused to discover that the menu of their
dinner of last December had been appropri-.
ated bodily and served up entire for the de-
lectation OF Mr. Irving and his friends in
London. Imitation is the truest hattery,
but 1t is strange that the fellow countrymen
of the great bard, living within a stones throw
of Stratford, couldn't get up an original
Shakespeare menu for the Irving feast, instead
of copying one which had been got up by
Yankee, and had been used six months before
