The Railroad Lease.

The notion which is somewhat prevalent
among persons who have examined only
specifically the recent decision of the Massa-
chusetts Supreme Court in the case of the
Eastern railroad lease, that the decision puts
an end to the scheme of leasing this road to
the Boston & Maine is erroneous. The
court finds nothing in the Massachusetts
statutes nor in the charters of the Eastern
or railroads which forbids their con-
solidation by means of perpetual lease. In
the particular lease which has been drawn
up and signed by majority Of the stock
holders of the two roads, the court finds one
clause which it considers contrary to the
statutes. The clause is the one that places
holders of preferred stock on the same foot
ing with bondholders in the payment of div
idends. Without this clause the court says
In effect that the lease is legal, and that no
injunction would have been granted on the
ether grounds of complaint. Modified SO as
to give the creditors of the Eastern road pri-
GRITTY of the preferred stockholders, the
present lease can safely run the gauntlet of
the law. 1t is reported that there is already
move to draw up new lease with such
changes as the courts opinion suggest.

Foibles Of Noted Enplishmen

Gladstone's rage for cutting down trees is
well known, but he had also mania for wear
ing baggy pantaloons and abnormally high
collars, which indicate his approach long be-
fore his features are discernible. Lord Sails
bury is noted for wearing the shabbiest hats Of
any man in London. His ordinary headgear
is so bad that a metropolitan cabman would
not deign to pick it up. AS set-off to this,
Edward Gibson, his faithful follower, is said
to keep one halter constantly employed-any
how, he always appears to have on new and
glossy "stove-pipe' Chamberlain is q great
lover of flowers, and bit of dandy to boot;
nine times out of ten he will be seen with an
and when he is minus that he is sporting
some other expensive conservatory flower.
Childers always wear kid gloves with a
light tint; he is never seen with uncovered
hands, and is popularity supposed to sleep in
his gloves. He certainly often eats with them
on. Sir Stafford Northcote always wears loose,
ill-htting coats with long sleeves, within which
it appears the business of his life to hide his
hands. Warrior is an inveterate snuff-taker;
he carries large box about with him and
must snuff up pounds of its contents during a
session. Seldom more than ten minutes
elapse between the pinches, each of which
averages teaspoonfnl. Lord Houghton is
the champion seeper-some say snorer. He
sleeps more hours out of the twenty-four than
any other peer or peasant in England. Lord
Randolph Churchill, when not engaged in
worrying Mr. Gladstone, is always employed
worrying his own moustache, an ornament
whose size is in inverse ratio to that OF its own
or. Lord Harrington ALWAYS appears to sleep
in the House Of Commons, with legs out
stretched, head bent forward, and hat pulled
over his eyes; but although he sees nothing
little escapes his sharp ears. 1t is only "dog-
sleep" after ALL Correspondence Philadelphia

such things are apt to spoil other mail mat

us to send them on by express. When we

The United States Supreme Court has de-
cided that the Secretary of the Interior can
not reverse the judgment of the Commits
sioner of Patents in patent case. That is
as it should be. While as general rule the
Commissioner knows as little about patents
as the Secretary OF the Interior, his opinion
is presumed to be record of the judgment
of experts who do know something, and it
ought not to be subject to the decision Of
another ignorant official.

Some Of the Odd Things that Travel Under
Postage Stamps.

"We frequently get snakes, frogs, bees

of Mails Alexander yesterday. "Of course
the snakes are small. don't know what
they're sent for. The frogs, snakes and alli-
gators mostly are mailed from Florida. The
bees are queen bees, sent in little blocks of
wood with hole bored in the centre and a
piece of wire netting over it. Sometimes we
find packages of butter, cherries, peaches

Indians cannot be citizens of the United
States until they are made SO by some
special action. That is the purport of the
recent decision of the Supreme Court.
There are thousands of Indians who live
soberly and industriously, and are better
qualified to perform all the duties of citizens
than many who are allowed to.

Philadelphia is agitated, or beginning to be,
on the subject of its lack of proper school
accommodations. The Superintendent of
schools estimates that there are 10000 chill
dren Of school age in the city for whom
there is no provision. Although the maxi
mum number of pupils allowed to each
teacher by the regulations is 45, more than
a third of all the class rooms in the city,
contain over SO children and almost 200
rooms contain over sixty pupils each.

Mrs. Smiths Case, and what the Rev. MIR.
McKinstry has TO say about il.

ToTHE PUBLIC: have been fearful sufferer for
fifteen years, most of the time with what has been
called Eczema or Salt Rheum, Criass and Lepra,
and t like, and have always been told that there
was no cure for me, and have been SO discouraged
that had as soon die as ti0e. have been so badly
afflicted sometimes that there was not the smallest
spot from the crown of my heal to the soles of my
feet that was not diseased and as red crimson.
1t would commence in small white spots, which had
silvery appearance, but were not deep, but if at
tempted to heal them, or soon after their first APP
pearance, they would burn and run together until
there was a complete dry, red scale, which would
become SO iplamed as to crack and look fiery and
angry, and the burning sensation would be almost
intolerable.

The committee appointed by the management to
confer with the President OF the United States and
the heads of the executive departments in respect
to the opening ceremonies of the Worlds Indus
trial and Cotton Centennial Exposition having re-
ported that inasmuch Congress assemblies
on the day heretofore announced for

E. A. BURKE, Director General.
Director General Burke reports that the
cellent state Of forwardness and the exposition
will be opened in the presence OF the Presi-
dents of the United States, Mexico, Central
American republics the heads of departments
and foreign representatives.
The action of the board of management in
deferring the opening until President Arthur
can inaugurate the exposition is warmly APP
proved. His warm support of the exposition
is appreciated all over the South, and the
management declare that it would be source
of intense disappointment to the people If it
opened without him. The delay will enable
the delinquents to get into position and will
avoid much of the confusion incident to the
opening of the exposition.
Mr.. Burke has reported to the management
that If they would roof the park (377 acres)
and give him sixty days the applicants for
space would fill it.
