1t is now estimated that the surplus
revenue of the current fiscal year Will
amount to $105 900 900 This must, of
course, be applied to the payment of the
interest bearing public debt, and, as
that now amounts to only about 81 ,200,-
600, 900, and bonds are being called at a
rate which would absorb them all in
less than dozen years. But the mass
of the debt is not payable, except by
purchase at great premium, till 1907.
Hence the obvious impolicy of paying
so rapidly.

One Meal a Day.

From the Newcastle lEng) Chronicle.
DIR. George Fordyce, the anatomist
and chemical lecturer, was accustomed
to dine every day, for more than twenty
years, at Dolly's chop-house, in Queens
Head Passage, Paternoster row. His
researches in comparative anatomy had
led him to conclude that man, through
custom, eats oftener than nature re-
quires, one meal a day being sufficient
for that noble animal the lion. He
made the experiment on himself at
his favorite dining house, and finding it
successful lie continued the following
regimen for the above term Of years At
o'clock, his accustomed dinner hour,
he entered Dollys chop-house and took
his seat at table always reserved for
him, on which were instantly placed a
silver tankard full of strong ale,
bottle of port wine and
measure containing quarter
of pint of brandy The moment the
waiter announced him the cook put
pound and a half Of tump steak on the
gridiron. and On the table some delicate
trife, as bonnie bouche, to serve until
steak was ready This delicacy was
sometimes half broiled chicken, some
times plate Of fish When he had eat
en- this lie took glass Of his brandy, and
then proceeded TO deyour his steak We
say deyour for he always ate as rapidly
as if eating for q wager When he had
finished his meat he took the remainder
Of his brandy, having during his dinner
drank the tanka1d Of ale and afterward
drank the bottle Of port The doctor
then adjourned TO the Chapter coffee
house in Paternoster row, and stayed
while he slipped a glass Of brandy and
water 1t was then his habit TO take an
other at the London coffee house and a
third at the Oxford. after which he re
turned to his house in Essex street,
where he gave his lectures on chemistry.
He made no other meal till his return
next day at o'clock at Dollys.

to say very little has been accom-
plished. However. many a state,
on the adjournment Of their legis-
latures, would be happy if they
could make a similar report.
The national delegates confirmed
are Legus Perryman and Emathla,
but as our finances are in bad
shape the council made no pro-
vision for their pay. Unless mat
tiers of more than ordinary imf ort-
ance TO us arise IN Washington, il
is intimated that our delegates viii
remain at home.
At different times of late it has
been feared that the permi. law
would be tampered with in 4 man
ner detrimental to the interests of
some of our citizens, but nothing
was done. Our people are reason
ably prosperous, and within year
or so will have fully recovered
from the setback caused by the
cattle dying last winter.

THE ELECTION.

Latest returns, although incom-
piete in many states, indicate the
election of the Republican candi-
dates, Blaine and Logan. Tues
day night all the news seemed to
point 10 the Democrats having
carried New York state which in
sured their success. Wednesday
evening however things took a de-
cided turn in favor of the other
party and Republicans who had
grown verv tame and dOcile, sud
denly became hilarious with joy.
The country districts of New York
had overcome the majority Of New
York City and Brooklyn, so the
dispatches said. which would give
the Republicans small majority.
It also looks as though Indiana
had gone Republican Connect
cut. and in all probability WiscOn-
sin have gone Democratic, while
West Virginia has turned RepuhIi-
can In Michigan a fusion"
ticket IS very likely elected. If so
six votes 60 to Cleveland, SIX to
Butler and one to Blaine New
Jersey was carried by the Demo
Gratis. The vote all over the
country was heavy one. Texas
has gone Democratic-by 100, 900
stis said.
The telegraph operators say that
a majority Of private dispatches
passing over the wires point to
Republican success. If our sub
scribers can arrive at any cOnclu-
sion satisfactory to themselves
from these reports We are thankful.
