.THERN TRIBUNE
THE Pope writes poetry in Latin, and
whenever much of the religion or poetry
is done up in dead language, it is con-
sidered harmless, il not appropriate.
DETROIT police have raided gambling
deas, and will lesson the evil for time.
There are other places where the curse
of gambling needs the attention of
police.
EXTREMES follow. Flooded St. Louis,
according to the Post, is ION the verge
of water famine" There are thou
sands in st. Louis who could endure a
water famine so long as whisky is
steady.
THE rejuvenated Tilden, in view of
1884, is ready to affirm that he is born
again, but he is born to die, if not
slaughtered in the Democratic conven-
ton, the people will kindly save the
old man of the sea from the weighty
cares of office.
ASTRONOMERS claim that cyclones
come because of sun storms and will
appear SO long as the raging cause

furious things generated on earth are
epidemically carried to the sun, or they

"AFTER reading of the sanitary con-
dltion of Egypt, I'm rather glad they
banished me.-Arabi Pdshd.
England undertook the management
of matters, including sanitary regu-
lations, and if her ships carry germs Of

worshipping nation severest condem-
nation.
DORSEY making fight against the i'm
mortal Garfield but shows the madness
of infamy, in one who has been faithless
as a Senator, and corrupt in manifold
practices. The memory of the dead
President can never be blackened by all
the publicly convicted wrongdOers of
earth, and no rightly disposed indi-
vidual would be guilty of such treach-
erous villainy. Faithful Presidents,
like Lincoln and Garfield, who served
their country and their race, will be
forever revered and loved, though slain
at their post in the discharge of duty.
MRS. LANGTRY, the public beauty with |
so many hOmely spots, received in her
unwOmanly treatment of her husband,
and her loud conduct with vulgar ape |
of Wall street, is preparing book on
America. We are told that there is no
end to the making of books, but
the book of this nOndescript |
woman will be remarkably small,
appearing in the eyes of the public,
about as small as the authOress, who |
has signally failed as an artistic. A
foreign lecturer or actress failing in
the United States, and wreaking ven
geance through book is one way of not |
finding out what this country thinks of
certain questionable characters who !
known nothing of us:
a deaf mute of Mercer county, KY, |
has invented an electrical instrument |
which enables him to hear an ordinary |
conversation.
The state geOlOgist of North Carolina |
states that in western North Carolina |
there are 50 peaks above 5000 feet: 90 |
between 5000 and 5000, and 143 be- |
tween 1000 and 5000, total of 295 |
above 1000 feet.
Miss Susan Turner of New Haven |
writes to the Ohio adjutant general that
she was sergeant i'm the 105th Ohio |
volunteers during the war, known as
Jim, wounded in five battles, and would |
like her tension.
There are now only three men IN the |

ganshOre, and Mr.. Villlers, member for |
