The United States is to be well repre-
scented at the London Fish Exhibit, which
opens next May. The fish industry is one
of great Importance, and Of late years has
received most intelligent encouragement
and direction from the government. The
exhibit gathered together by the United
States Fish Commission is apparently
complete in every department. 1t is
of scientific as well as practical inter-
est, because it embraces cOlOred casts
and photographs of all the important
food fishes captured in our sea and in
land waters. For the practical people
there is a wonderful exhibit of fishing
apparatus, from the boats, harpOOns,
guns, etc, used in whaling to the nets
employed in mackerel fishing. The meth
DDS Of packing and canning fish and Oys-
tiers are fully illustrated. and the processes
of fish culture viii be shown on a large
scale. Even the angler has his depart
ment, and very beautiful exhibit is made
OF rods, reels, flies, etc. This is the kind
of speciality exhibition, complete in every
way, and arranged to impart information
that is of the greatest possible educational
value, and of much more use in that way
than an incomplete general exhibition.

Two Baltimore grain firms have gone
under. and others are expected to follow
suit. The difficulties there arise from the
fact that some two months ago it was
thought to be a safe thing to sell corn
short. at about 60 cents for January, owing
to the heavy crops expected, the slight
demand abroad compared with the sup
ply. and the expectation that corn would
come in and would grade well. These
expectations have not been realized, and
when the deliveries had to be made deal
ers found themselves short.

Pascal says somewhere that the history
OF the world would have been different !
the nose OF Cleopatra had been shorter
From this statement we may gather thai
Pascal supposed Cleopatra's nose 10 have
been lust the right length. Otherwise sht
would not have enjoyed those social sue
cesses which did affect tbs history o
Egypt and OF Rome. Mr.. Alma-Tademt
has Just added his vision OF Cleopatra t
his collected pictures in the Grosvenol
Gallery. The painting Is admirable, w
may almost say Of course, and nothing car
be finer than the reflection OF the water O
the Alexandrian harbor on shield o
bronze. But we are chiefly concerned witt
Mr.. Tadema's idea OF Cleopatra. She is {
dark beauty, with rather bright com
plexion, and she leans back lux
uriously in her cushions, with pleas
ant sense that she can sway "the cur
rent oil mems blood" and especially O.
Mark Anthony's, whose boat is Just ap
preaching her barge. The length Of Gle
opatra's face in this picture recalls family
the very long nosed efHgies OF this lady or
medals. The Cleopatra Of coins must have
won men's hearts by her wit rather thar
her beauty. Mr.. Tadema's is more prob
able Cleopatra than the good.humored
grinning niulatto whom Mr.. Millais drew
10 represent Mr.. Tennyson's Queen with
swarthy cheeks and bold black eyes" But
we venture the suggestion that the daugh
ter OF the Ptolemies, Greek by blood, may
have been fair beauty in the style o.
Becky Sharpe and Blanche Amory. This
sort Of Cleopatra, all unlike the Cleopatra
described in Hawthorne's marble Faun,
would have the charm OF novelty.

The history Of the Independent Republic
can movement in Pennsylvania is ready TO
be written. 1t was almost ready after the
defeat Of the regular Republican ticket by
forty thousand votes. From the hour that
the Democratic party began to reap the
fruits OF It's victory the closing the breach
in the Republican ranks may be dated.
Pennsylvania Republicans had a griev'
ance, but it appeared in the returns that
comparatively few Of them look upon rev.
olution as the best way to right their
wrongs. A year before, Mr.. Wolfe, sell.
nominated, without an organization, polled
nearly fifty thousand votes. Mr.. Stewart
with thorough organization backed by
some OF the strongest influences in the
State. with able stumpers in the field,
polled less than forty thousand. General
Beaver polled over $4,000 yotes-fity
THOUSAND more than had been cast for the
Republican State Treasurer the year before.
The lesson was plain. Enough Republic
cans to defeat the party were willing to
appeal to the last resort, but the bulk oil
the party preferred TO wash the party linen
indoors-preferred to insist upon the
rights OF Republicans rather than turn to
the rights Of revolutionists. Wrongs oil
Republican party management did not
drive from the Republican standard those
Republicans who were unwilling to risk
reform through the Democratic party.
The desperate heroic effort Of the minor
ity may not have been entirely in vain,
but subsequent events have vindicated the
wisdom OF the majority. Governor Patti
sons administration has entered upon a
policy which has disguised high.minded
Democrats. The Governor is using the
patronage OF his place to reward his per-
sonal friends and pay his personal debts,
and 1t happens that some Of his creditors
were men who could bring no honor to
his administration. He has broken
solemn promises. It was believed that
he would make Cassidy Attorney Gen
eral, and this belief was about to lose him
votes. He authorized the statement that
Cassidy would net be Attorney General,
aud Cassidys appointment was his first
conspicuous act. In the same way he has
endeayored to use the lucrative Recotder-
ship OF Philadelphia to pay personal debt,
sinecure which ought to be abolished.
So far he has been baked in this by the
refusal OF the Senate to confirm.
But these are merely examples. Gov
ernor Pattison's short course has shown
Independent Republicans that they have
nothing to expect from him or his party,
and little is heard now Of those names
which designated the unhappy division
in the Republican ranks. A kindly spirit
prevails throughout the organization-a
manifest desire to forget the past and take
fresh start. There will still be ambitions
that can not be satisfied and rivalries for
leadership, but as we read the signs the
Republicans Of Pennsylvania, whether OF
one or the other Of the late factions, are
cured Of their folly. Hereafter they will
devote themselves to fighting the enemy,
and they will dislodge him. Pennsylvania
