Philadelphia is about to follow tho
example Of Los Angeles. and some other
cities; Its streets are to be lighted by the
electric light placed on high masts. 1t
Is a matter OF wonder that third and
fourth rate cities, in the matter OF popu-
lation, have been the first to adopt a sys.
TEN Of public lighting which puts the
Inhabitants Of this planet on an equal
footing with those Of Jupiter, who night
ly enjoy the light of one or more of
their moons. II tho introduction of gas
enabled respectable persons, and even
unprotected women, to go about by
night in safety, not only along the prin-
e;pal thorouehiareS Of our great cities,
but even up and down the by'streets
which, only few years since, were con-
sidered dangerous, and If the brilliant
gas-lights did more than oil the laws,
the magistrates, and the police, to re-
strain men who ''love darkness rather
than light, because their deeds are evil. J."
and, indeed, can be done only because
Of the darkness, with what words shall
we praise in fitting way the public
adoption Of system Of lighting MS su-
perior to gas.lights as those to the orig
inal "dips" Of only short half century
ago. Possibly the very close relation OF
physical light to moral light and pro.
gress Is actually engaging the attention
Of some philosopher; it is subject well
worthy Of treatise.
What the public now awaits i'm.
patiently Is the perfection end introduce
tion Of the electric incandescent burner
for use within doors. To one obliged to
work or write by night by the Pickering
light of the gas-burner, or even that Of
the moro acceptable kerosene lamp. the
heat, bad smells, aud vitiated atnos-
phere are dangerous and annoying. And
not only as medium Of illumination
will the new light be welcomed. but it,
advent Will be acclaimed Immediately
because In its use there is absolutely nc
danger of conaagration to be appre'
hended. In our climate there arc very
few days in the year when we need fire
for other purposes than for the prepare
ton Of food aud for the laundry. These
domestic operations being carried on
chiefly in the day time, aud never unless
10 the presence of one or more persons,
1t follows that in dwelling lighted by
the new light conaagration would be
the result Of very extraordinary circum
stances, Now, when the new light il
adopted universally. as undoubtedly il
will be adopted, shall we shuddor 81
often over narrowing accounts OF loss o
human life by fire in thoaters and oihe
public buildings.

WHILE in the United States Mr.. Oscar
Wilde, it is almost needless to reRind
our readers. generally acted and spoke
in anything but sensible manner. We
concede, however, that, if some reminis
cences OF his visit to US published in a
late number of The Criterion be founded
on fact, on one occasion, at least, he
made very sensible remark. 1t is n
lady who writes the article referred to,
and she was present at breakfast given
to Mr.. Wilde while at Saratoga, when,
in the course of general conversation
he remarked that "L1s Angeles was the
prettiest name he had heard in Amer.
ica." This remark is evidence of a taste
not entirely deprayed, and, as Los An
geles refused to pay tive hundred dollars
for the pleasure and profit OF seeing and
hearing Mr.. Wilde. it may be taken as
sign Of magnanimity on his part. We
are constrained to add that, at the
breakfast referred to. Mr., Wilde also
remarked that "as a rule, American
women are rather rude"-an observation
much the more original of the two.

VicARIous authorshipis becoming very
common. In the New York Weekly, q
periodical Of which the late Francis 3.
Street was proprietor, almost every week
there appeared poems and stories "by
Francis ). Street," yet he never wrote o
line in his life in a literary way. His
great weakness was 10 be considered
literary man. and, having money, he
gave employment to a score OF book
makers hacks Astounding in tho grea'
eity--men of brains and education, who
owing to misfortune, or dissipation, Of
from some other cause, place these ri
the disposition of him who has where
withal to pay, oven though the paymen
be, as is generally the case, n mere pit
lance. Literary imposters like Street
however, are invariably found out soonel
or later

The Santa Monica season may be said
to BIO fairly opened, and on Sunday o
great many persons visited that popular
resort. We take the liberty Of recon-
mending to the consideration of the pro
prietors Of hotels there the advantage o.
tho Andaman Islands clam. and its breed
ing in these waters. A shell Of one o.
these clans, recently taken to London
weighed 232 pounds, and measured three
feet nne inches in diameter by a yart
in depth. The meat Of this jollybivnlvf
furnished meal for sixteen families
1t makes ono's mouth water to think o.
the clam.bakes and chowderI possible
where this very meritorious clan
abounds. Let the Fish Commissioner
be prayed to consider the clam of the
Andaman Islands.

The Apache War.

1t Is to be feared that the expedition
Of General Crook will not result in the
final settlement of the Apache question.
Let us admit that the General can count
securely on tho hearty cooperation Of
the military authorities of that part of
Mexico in which he may be, that he has
all the men he can handle in such a
country. and that these are supplied
abundantly with rations and ammuni-
ton. These favorable circumstances do
not constitute the whole OF the problem
which General Crook is called upon to
solve. In the so.called Nevada war, the
enemy, few in number, kept together in
o region which, however difficult of ac-
cess, was after all of limited extent
Nor was there any escape possible from
the lava beds, and the Modocs were
caught like rats in trap. That portion
Of the neighboring republic to which the
Apachcs have fled is vast wilderness
e1cahuihB III hhVOiithih AasthNoSeSf NHNh
more inaccessible than the other, save
to hunt savages, or to troops pursuing
them who carry as little in the way Of
food and cartridges as the former carry.
Moreover the Apaches know all the de.
vious paths of the mountains, and they
are unknown to either Mexicans or
Americans. The Apaches have proba-
bly, divided up into small bands, each 60
ing in different direction. We know
that General Crook had with him but
three hundred men, all told. To divide
this force into dozen commands, for the
purpose of pursuing as many fleeing
bands of Indians, would be very unwise,
and Crook, who has all the fighting en-.
srgy of the late Custer, is entirely free
from the latters great fault OF rashness.
It is possible, even probable, that Crook
may succeed in Running to earth one
party of Apaches it is equally possible,
even probable, that the rest will find
their way back to Arizona, for it is im-
possible for the American and Mexican
armies combined to guard the passes Of
the whole Sierra Madre.
