6NUHRER 4 -

The obliquity of the mo. 1" who has
been filling SO big niche in the public at
tention of both hemispheres, so long, is
really amazing. First the parsonage re-
presenting this mysterious figure is in Ire
land, then in France, then in Australia,
from thence in New York, and in a trice
upon the plains of the great west, and now
he finally turns up in Mexico as substan-
TALLY as though he had not hitherto been a
myth or fair representative of one.
When finger has previously been square
ly put upon him in any locality, of a sud-
den he was there no longer, for with Jules
Verne balloon, or some other air-cleaving
apparatus, he takes to flight and in a
twinkling oceans roll between him and his
last place of abode. This morning he is.
according to cable, summing himself in
tropical comfort on the Mexican plazas and
enjoying luxurious siestas after dinner
beneath the broad-leafod palms, to per-
haps f1irt with the pretty senoritas as the
shades of evening approach, and wind up
the day with fandango above the graves
of the kingly Montezumas.
drum as difficult of solution, or what may
be his certificate of birthright, or what
more his parants gave him out of the mill
ions at hand to choose from, or what more
they had power to give him in a lineal
right whaterer be the real handles taken
hold of when he is rightly addressed, none
of those which have been thus far placed to
his appellative account seem to stick, while
the mistakes as to his identity, for other
people seem to be as plenty as the places
which thus far have been accorded to hold
him and have held him not.
Never has a number one" conducted
himself as has this nimble figure since the
world began, and shown himself so bash
full and tardy about showing up and COM
ing forward promptly when wanted or not
wanted. For instance, in a barber shop
who ever knew number one to ever become
absorbed in the engravings of a Police
Gazette to an extent Of being superseded
by number two, much less by any higher
numerical figure in the turn. On arrival
at hotel whoever heard
of number one on entering
to quietly remain incog. and
let light-fngered guest on the list of
newcomers secure the lower room up one
fight of stairs? What nimble-fngered
holster of intermingled lead and antimony
ever waited his turn on the slate for a
"take" for any other numerical typo, be he
friend or be he foe; or when or where has
number one in public life, in the profess
sions, in the busy mart, or in the tide of
travel, neglected in single instance to as
sert his presence, his supremacy, his supe-
risrity, his precedence, his position and his
inalienable rights?
When we come to think of what he's been
the custom of number one'' since a "num-
Der one' was first created, and his thor
ough ability to absorb all the perquisites
belonging to and to care for number one''
particularly this article of the present day
and hour seems to be more and more of an
impossibility, and we are forced to say if
there be genuine number one," 'Laza-
rus come forth" no longer by proxy, al
ways involving denial, but IN thine own
flesh and blood

States for $4,000, as surety fer defaulter.
No effort has been made to collect the
judgment. Favoritism allows the men to
owe the government under the same cir
cumstanees of the Ochiltree case, but pre-
JUDGE pursues him. Let the government
obige Arthur, Window aud Cullom to pay
into the treasury the sums they are with
holding, and then it will appear there is
some equity in the holding against the
Texas congressman. If their debts are to
be forgiven them, Col. Toms should be

AMONG the numerous vetoes which Gov.
Ben Butler has transmitted to the legisla-
ture of the commonwealth of Massachu-
sets is one in which he holds that corpora
tions should not be permitted to hold lands
to perpetuity, as that tends to create a
privileged class of landlords and pauper
authorize an incorporation to hold two
hundred acres Of land at Somerville. This
is new doctrine to be applied to affairs
in this country. While the great west has
free hsmes for all, the danger which the
governor fires his veto at is very remote,
if not entirely fgment of the mind.

In 1882 the United States sold Mexico
S175OCO more goods than it bought of that
country. The expectation to Mexico
amounted to over fifteen millions and a
half. The commerce between the two
countries might have been more than
doubled this year, if congress had not will
fully omitted to ratify the new treaty ne
gotiated by Mr.. Romero, Gen. Canebo
and Gen. Grant. Congress had time to
vote away millions wastefully, butwas too
Indifferent to approve the treaty which
would have added millions to the revenue
of the country. 1t is craftsmanship to
vote away the peoples money, but not
craftsmanship to provide against the loss
of trade which is begging to be &C
cepted.

The New York Herald of Sunday, March
10, contained one hundred and twenty five
columns of advertising, serving 5,143 ad
vertisers. The highest point ever before
reached by the Herald advertisements in g
single issue was one hundred and twenty
columns, April 16, 1882, in the height OF
the spring trade. This straw shows the
present prosperous tide of business, in q
gratifying way, for it is the fact that bust
ness men advertise the most freely when
trade is good, and are the most chary when
trade is slight. This is not the best rule
for advertisers, who ought to use printers
freely at all times, and with the most free
dom when by that means they can increase
the volume of business, in fact create it
Business men who achieve the greatest
success are those who freely advertise.
