CURRENT COMMENT.

SENATOR DoS cANRFoN when in England drove
with his wife from London to Edinburg, accom-
panied by groom and maid. The direct dis
lance is four hundred miles, but by detours 10
pleasant points Of excursion they made il six
hundred. So pleased was the Senator with his
experience that be is resolved 10 repeat it often
IN his own country. BE Is having built specially
for long drives light-running but stout buggy,
with which he expects to take long driving tours
over the state every year hereafter wisely ehoos-
ing the delightful early fall months of September
and October for this agreeable diversion.

Especial TELEGRAM to the Globe.

WASHINGTON, Dec. 22.-''Very few south
erners are coming here" said hotel clerk
tonight. ''The idea that the whole south is
marching on Washington is not confirmed
by the hotel registers or orders for rooms.
Even after the 4th of March it does not ap-
pear likely that any great number of south
erners viii be here, but the Democrats
from the north aud west are coming here at
they never came before, and they are not OF
the loug-haired and unwashed kind. They
are fine lot of gentlemen, worthy lawyers
and business men, and they compare favor
ably with any class of pilgrims that this
Mecca has been in the habit of entertain-
ing.''

"THE Senator stood alone''-that is, Mr..
Riddleberger in fighting the confirmation
of McCulloch, for Secretary of the Treasury.
1t turns out that the Virginia Rebel Briggs
der opposed the confirmation upon the theory
that appointment was made by Arthur to
embarrass and injure Blaine, aud that the
appointment prevented Blaine from carrying
Virginia. Blaine was urging protection at
his end of the line, and Arthur appointed
Free Trader at his end. This is absurd, but
il is a view that Mr.. Blaiae himself enter
tains. A man with tbimble-full of COM
mon sense would understand that the ap-
pointment Of McCulIoch did not change
single vote. Nor WAS it made
for the purpose Of influencing
the campaign in the remotest degree. When
the occasion arose to select some one for the
place, made vacant by Judge Folger's death,
Arthur appointed Gresham, who was unfit
for the place, having no training in finance,
and no aptitude for any functions other than
judicial. The duties were irksnme to
Gresham, and in general be was failure.
But few months of the Presidents term re-
NAMED, and be prevailed upon a man who
could step into the position and discharge
the duties with safety to the government and
the public, and with credit to the admins
tration. This is the whole story, and the
hallucinatiou that McCulloch was appointed
TO hurt Blaine or help any body else is the
mereSt moonshine.

THE House of Representatives has yielded
TO a sort OF popular demand and passed
bill to create department for the Bureau Of
Agriculture, and make the head of the de-
partment Cabinet officer. This, perhaps,
is well enough if it be possible TO find a man
who is practical and sensible enough to
cause the department to really do something
for Agriculture. The bureau In the hands
of tie famous lie Due was famous for useless
garden seeds and waste of money in an al
legged scheme of tea culture, and the luxur-
liant Loring has made it an advertising
medium for breed of horses that he is inter
ested in. The bureau has been of so little
benefit to the farmers, and
they have grown SO hopeless
of its being the means of accomplishment
and filling the mission for which it was orig
inally created, that they have sought to have
it raised to department, with a place in the
Cabinet. If the action of the House should
meet the approval OF the Senate and the Ex-
ecutive, the experiment can be tried II, as a
department, the Agricultural interests car
have the position they deserve in the councils
of the nation. The case had reached such a
status that this has the look of being a better
thing to do than to abolish the bureau for its
uselessness.

Col. Pine Bets on the Queen.

The largest bet that has ever been made
by Leadville man upon the single turn of
q card was made by Col Pine in California
some years ago. The colonel was at one
time considered the wealthiest man.in Next
co. His partner had been to California to
dispose of large ranch. They got their
money and were about to start for home when
the colonel thought he would play little
monte He played in bad luck and lost con-
siderable money, which naturally made him
a little excited. After while he said to the
dealer:
How much money have you. in the
banker
1t was flush days then and the bank roll
was no Insignificant sum. After counting
it the dealer said About S4S, 000n
'I'll bet you S48, 900 that the queen wins
against the ace,n said the colonel.
His blood was up and he meant what he
said. The dealer looked at him inquiringly
to see If he really meant 1t, and finally ex-
claimed coolly:
''Ill go you ont if lose.''
The dealer was Miner Smooth now in
Denver, and cooler man never lived. He
shuffied and gave the cards to Pine to cut,
after which he slowly began to draw the
cards. Not word was spoken and the 81.
lence was terribly oppressive. 1t was a long
time before either card showed, but at last
lone club showed up and the banker drew
sigh of relief. Pine gave him check for
S4S, 900 and left the room. He came back
to New Mexico the next day.
