A CoLORKD CHAIRMAN.

The election Of the Hon. John r.
Lynch colored man to the position
If Chairman Of the Chicago Con-
vention was an excellent move. 1t
has often been thrown up to the
Republican party that its recog-
milton of the colored man is only a
misty recognition and altogether
meaningless. The election of Mr..
Lynch to preside over the delibera-
of SO august body, is a sufficient
answer to these charges. The
speech made by Lynch shows that
aside from the color proposition an
excellent choice was made. 1t was
model of clear and concise Eng
fish free from bombast or strained
utterances, and full of sound polit-
ical sense. It was the right thing
said at the right time and in just
the right way. We doubt if a
single man in all that collection OF
great men could have improved on
it. in a weeks time. The colored
Chairman knew just where to STOP
He said what he had to say, and
rounded it up with fine finish. 1t
will be seen by the vote that the
Blaine delegations as rule OPP
posed Lynch and were beaten.
1t is all well enough for
Blaine's men to say that, 1t
in no way tested the strength OF
the Convention, but it was in one
sense a test vote and so regarded,
except by those who would rather
regard it otherwise. The cam
paign has opened well and the Sc
lection of colored Chairman may
be looked upon as the first gun.

A DANGER OF SURGERY.

The fate of DR.. George H. Atkinson, OF
Brooklyn, n. Y, will interest physicians In
August last DR.. Atkinson was called to per
form a painful surgical operation on VIC
tim Of an infectious disease.
a painful operation became necessary, and
ether was administered. While the patient
was under the knife be scratched the first
Joint of the middle finger Of the Doctors
right hand with his nails, drawing blood.
The wound was apparently Insignificant,
and for some time 1t did not give DR.. Akin
son any anxiety. Soon, however, the pain
in his finger increased and the swelling ex-
tended to the hand aud forearm. and about
October he was obliged to resort to careful
treatment, under which the finger healed
up. A scar still remained on the point
where the patients nails had entered and
the Joint itself was red and shrunken. No
subsequent bad effects we're apprehended
from the injury by either the Doctor himself
or other physicians, whom he had consulted,
and he supposed that the poison had been
ersdicated from his system. Toward the
end of November, however, he began to
suffer from racking headaches on the left
side of his head, and hesviness and dull
ness, the very opposite of his naturally
lively disposition. He was also troubled
with insomnia and had TO resort to narcotics.
Later his right side snd right leg became
psralyzed, his mind wandered and the power
of speech left him entirely days before the
attending physicians gave up his case as
hopeless. One OF the latter remarked that
only one case of the kind is reported in the
books. Surprise was expressed at the poison
reaching the brain in SO short time. 1t is
considered by The profession as q singular
case of blood poisoning.

CURE.ALLS.

There is class of socalled refor mers who
think the shortest road to cure all evils is to
make laws against them Itwould be a very
short and satisfactory cut, but experience
has demonstrated that communities must be
fully abreast of all successfully executed
laws. If not, they lie simply dead-lettsrs on
the books. An Englishman, Sir Auberon
herbert, discusses this class of ire
form" and ''retormers" in . recent
article in Popular Science, and he
does it very happily. Among other
good things ne ssys: "All these official re-
forms are essentially idle. Is the Nation to
be sober? Pass On act of Parliament out of
hand, and shut up the public houses. Is II
to be provident? Pass an act of Parliament

PRINCE ALBERT VICTOR, ELDEST SON OF THE
PRINCE OF WALES, SOON TO VISIT AMERICA.
Prince Albert Victor, eldest son Of the
Prince of Wales, will be twentY-one years
of age on January next. His attainment
OF his majority will be celebrated, after
which he will visit on this continent and
acquaint himself in some measure with the
United States and Canada.
Queen Victoria, his worthy grandmother,
continues to be in go cd health, generally
speaking, and may live many years yet,
even long enough to survive the Prince of
Wales, who is said to be possessed of the be-
lief that he will never be King OF Great
Britain and Ireland. His heir, and failing
the Prince of Wales, the heir TO the crown,
is the young Prince to be with Us shortly,
who, whether his fathers grim apprehension
will prove true or not, will almost certainly
become the ruler OF an Empire comprising q
population considerably exceeding 500, 600,
zoo souls.
Albert Victor has been carefully educated
and given considerable experience in the
navy. He is quiet and studiOus young
fellow, with strong bias towards the culti-
walton of learning. The observant reader
will notice that bis countenance, while
marked with the characteristics of the
Guelph family, at the same time strongly
resembles the more refined linesments OF
his amiable mother, the Princess \ exaudra
of Denmark. After his holiday on this side
of the Atlantic Prince Victor will study law
at the Middle Temple, London.
The Executive Committee of the Winter
Carnival, Montreal, have taken advantage
Of bis intended visit TO invite him to attend
hat coming celebration. He will, of course,
see the exposition at New Orleans. No

man will be cordially welcomed on these

HOW ARE YOU, BURCHARDq''

4 wide-swake Washington correspondent
was on the q'ti give for the first meeting OF
Blaine and Logan after theirimutusl Water
loo OF November. The correspondent tells
about it in this wise: They met on Pennsyl-
venis avenue only day or two ago. Mr..
Blaine was riding in q carriage and Mr..
Logan was returning from the Senate on
foot. They sighted each other fully block
away, and when the carriage was about
passing, Mr.. Blaine raised his hat in most
dignifed fashion. Mr.. Logan cleared his
throat and shouted, How are you, Burch-
ardT' Mr.. Blaine's face flushed for an in.
slant and he looked embarrassed. Then he
smiled and Mr.. Logan went out into the
street and both men shook hands heartily.
The incident was witnessed by several citi-
zeDs, and the joke is beng repeated at Mr..
Blaine's expense.

not to enjoy perfect health W hen Hollowsy's

what fools they are not to become sober,

Kentucky, Missouri and all States north of
them. These twenty-five States employ
nine-tenths Of the wage-esrnsrs in meohani-
cal pursuits reported in the census Thir-
teen per cent, 316,249, are reported
unemployed, and wages have been re-
duced FROM 20 to 80 per cent The
monev received by this class is mostly paid
out as received, from week to week GER
tainly, II not from day to day. Hence the
lessening Of their power to spend is proof
and considerable cause OF the clogging of
distribution from which nearly all trades
now suffer, and which, in turn, leads TO
complaints of overproduction. 1t further
appears that the decline is disproportionstely
large in the cities, seventeen furnishing Sc
per cent. OF the total of unemployed. In
detail it appears that $4,000 iron workers are
idle, IS are also 81, coo makers OF clothing,
