BON VOYAGE.

Before another issue Of The WmG
our readers will have welcomed the adj
vent Of the New YEAR, the narrow 18th
mus which divides the past and future
the day which commentaries the death
of the old and the birth of the new.
1t is intuitive with the majority of
mankind to begin the New Year with
fresh resolutions. To read the lessons
of experience to regret the errors of
the past, and to lay better plans for the
future.
Standing on the threshold OF another
year, with all its possibilities and uncer-
taintes yelled from mortal view, we
heartily wish that with every reader of
The WIG good resolutions may not
lose the name of action, but prove the
good seed from which may spring an
abundant harvest of rich results, as the
days of 81 grow on apace.

the historic past 1t was one of the
affairs where money had less weight
than brains, and It was therefore a
gratifying social success.
Mrs. William Astor is going to give a
ball sometime in January which prom
lses to eclipse anything ever given in
New York. The astors do not give
many emf ''nments, but when they
do they CIV, something worth seeing

the Astors tort t everybody

own thousands O.; all over the

does not trouble them when they feel
like giving party. They are rather a
retiring sort of family. They never
thrust their personality on their neigh
bors, but when they give a reception
or ball the best in the city are only too
glad to come. Of course the ladies'
would like to know something of Mrs.
Aston. Well, she is an accomplished
lady of great charity, and very much
beloved by those who know her. She
has this worlds goods in abundance,
and it is said that her laces alone, of

allow Mr.. Dousl lass in the first cabin.
and so we were obliged to take the after
cabin. When the Irish coast was
reached the captain gave the first cabin
passengers complimentary dinner.
After the dinner was over Captain .Iud-
kins came to me and said some Of the
passengers desired to hear Douglass
speak. Mr.. Douglass complied, and as
soon as he began to speak there was
great excitement, and cries Of Throw
him overheard Kill him., and Other
threats were made. The crowd became
so boisterous that Captain Jndkins came
on deck and said that he douglas
must stop, as he (the Eaptain) wanted
to speak. The captain said he had made
it pleasant for the Passengers all the way
over, and that some OF the passengers
wanted to hear Douglass speak, ana he
should speak: then. said the Captain,

Speaker Carlisle's Committees.

The standing Committees of the House
OF Representatives were announced by
Speaker Carlisle on Monday last. ON
space will only permit us to name the
Chairmen of a few of the most important
committees, the entire list anyhow being
of but little interest to the general reader
Mr.. Morrision. of Illinois, is at the head
of the committee of Ways and Means:
Mr.. Randall, of Pennsylvania, of Appro-
priationS: Turner, of Georgia. Elections:
Buckner, Of Missouri, Banking and Cur
rency; Bland, of the same state, Coinage.
Weights and Measures; Regan, of Texas.
Commerce; Curtin, of Pennsylvania, For
eign Affairs; Cox, OF New York, Navy:
Tucker, of Virginia, Judiciary; Willis of
Kentucky, Rivers and Harbors; Rose
Grams, of California. Military Affairs; and
Bagley, of New York, Manufacturers
Maryland is left out in the cold the
Speaker evidently being of the opinion
that none of the Democratic representa-
tives from this State are capable of act
ing as the head Of even the most unim-
portant committee. Some people are
not pleased with the committees as Mr..
Speaker Carlisle has formed them and
are making a noise about it. We give
below the opinions Of several newspapers
upon the matter. as expressed in their
columns
New Yorl, SIR, (Democratic): ''Mr.
Hurd is chosen to speak and act for Ohio
on the committee of ways and means. the
most important and influential committee
of the House. Can anything surpass the
irony Of such a selection and such pref
crenceN Ii is not too much to say that
if under such circumstances State ele c.
ton were held ia Ohio tomorrow the
Democrats would be beaten by major
ity Of fifty thousand. Poor, stricken,
hapless democracy, divine in ideas, most
impotent in conduct. what fatalities beset
thee, what fnlies are committed in thy
name. But the storm ends with the
rainbow of promise, and hope may yet
revive amid the very wreck OF disaster.''

ELKTON, DECEMBER 90, 1888.

SOME very interesting and rather re-
markable political incidents came to
light by the refusal of State Senator
Coke, of Lucerne county, Pa, declining
to accept the nomination for another
term. Mr.. Coke, who is a wealthy coal
operator, was elected to the Senate, but
after his election he refused to take the
oath of office, giving as his reason that
he could not conScientiously do SO, be-
cause of the corrupt methods which
had been employed to procure his cleo
ton. His declination is looked upon
as huge joke, as he had furnished the
money the use of which is SO repug-
nant to his conscience \ new election
was ordered, and Mr. Coke was again
elected. Now he comes forward and
declares that he will not stand for an
other term. But his constituents, with
