The Case of Grover Cleveland.

At last we have the expected staten, nj
from Buffalo; bat compared with what was
promised it is not very satisfying. We were
promised a testimonial signed by hundreds
of the prominent citizens of Buffalo, men
whose word would establish whatever they
asserted, certifying that the story of Grover
Cleveland's immortality was wholly false.
After SC many weeks, during which il is GER

statement in the Buffalo Courier, partisan
Democratic journal, that the story as told
was exaggerated. "There was no seduc-
tion." There was no abdue-
tlon." ''There was no cruel

ment in The settlement of the case as has
been reported" But ''the case'' is not de-
MED, nor does the Governors defender act
upon the direction, said to have been tele.
graphed from Albany by the Governor, to
''tell the truth" about it. The Courier
confines itself to pointing out alleged errors
in former statements of ''the case.''
Col. T. W. Higginsou has taken part in

Representative Bisbee of Florida believes
that there is fair prospect of defeating the
Bourbons in that State. The Republicans
will support the Independent candidate for
governor Rho is young, popular and ener-
getic and is making a personal canvass.
Previous to 1880 he was a Democrat. His
opponent ia carpet-bagger from Masaachu-
sets. If the Independent ticket is elected
there is little doubt that the State will give
It's electoral vote to Blaine, for fair cleo
zion will be assured and with fair election
the State is Republican by 6OOO maiority.

Somehow or other the Democratic party is
always at war with the ministers. Just now
all its organs are busy traducing those who
have dared TO bear witness of their knowl-
edge that Governor Cleveland is not so white
so. What abuse was heaped by the same
party upon clergymen who yentured to think
and say that slavery was crime! 1t is re-
remarkable how quickly the Democratic par
ty takes offense when the ministers of the
land attempt to bring public issues to the
touchstone of Christian ethics.

The English Conservatives seem finally to
have succeeded in getting up counter-dem
onstration which may fairly be called sue
cess in point of numbers at least. The
most remarkable feature of it outside of The
immense audience was the speech of Lord
Salisbury who confessed that the Lords did
not intend to carry their opposition to the
franchise bill to the point of autagonizing
the popular will on the subject. The most
the Lords would insist upon was an appeal
to the country. This is a considerable back
ing down from the attitude of the Lords on
the subject some weeks ago, and indicates
that the threat to sweep the upper house out
of existence has not been without effect.

France apparently means to enforce her
claims to an indemnity from China at the
point of the bayonet if necessary. The oc-
cupation of Kelung is the first step, and if
China remains obstinate thu seizure of Foo
Chow will follow Notwithstanding her re-
fusal to pay, China shows no disposition to
fight. Kelung was occupied without any
resistance, the Chinese troops who were as
sembled in the vicinity promptly retiring in
to The interior. Pluck seems to be quail

Salt and its Uses.

Pearl Creek, Wyoming, Warsaw,
rests on a solid bed of salt 1900 to
1900 feet down, and from 80 to 80
feet thick. 1t has been since ascer-
tanned that this strata of salt extends
to the Gennessee river, fourteen miles
eastward. A dozen large manufacto.
ries are each of them making from 800
to 600 or 800 barrels of salt per day.
Several other works will soon be put
in operation.
Nothing was made in vain" This
salt, hid away like coal for mans use,
and the salt of the great briny deep,
Indicate important Offices which it is to
perform. The Popular Science News
summarizes in clear, forcible way the
uses of salt:
"Chloride of sodium, common salt,
is the most widely distributed substance
in the body, found in every fluid and
every solid, generally forming the
larger portion of the ash where any
tissue is burned. A constituent of the
blood, it is parted with slowly and re>
luctantly when salt is not taken with
the food. Ordinarily a healthy man
parts with about twelve grains a day,
by one channel or another; this must
be supplied if health is to be maintain.
ed. The chief salt is in the gastric
juice; it is indispensable to digestion.
1t promotes the decomposition of al.
bumen, enabling the intestines to abb
sorb it, and so aiding the nuritive pro.
cess. 1t is known to be fatal to the
small thread worms, and prevents the
development of worms in the intestines.
When deer, buffaloes, and other ami
mails travel many miles to get it, they
furnish conclusive proof that 1t supplies
a material want"
have reproduced all this to point
out this important
MORAL:
Animals should not be supplied with
weekly doses, large or small, too big or
too little, but after giving them a small
daily allowance for a week or two, give
them constant access to an abundant
supply-they being the best judges Of
how much they need. Every days
wants should be every day supplied.
You might as well eat your cabbage
and potatoes for weeks without any
salt, and then swallow halt teacupful
to square the account, as to do the same
thing by giving your herds salt only
once week.

HOW TO WOO AND WIN
JOHN G, SAKE.

"Would you play the manly lover"
Quoth graybeard to his son,
"List, my lad, while discover
How maiden should be won.
"Woo her not with boastful praises,
Lest you teach her lip to sheer
Still suitor's warmest praises
In his conduct should appear.
"Woo her not with senseless signing,
Maidens love laughing eye.
Tell her not that you are dying
Lest she, mocking, bid you die.
"Woo her not with weakly whining,
0'er your poverty of pelf,
Les. she answer by declining
Both your sorrows-and yourself.
"WOo her with manly wooing:
Giving hostages to Fate,
All the hearts devotion showing
By its strength to work and wait.
"Woo her not with idle prattle
Whom you fain would make your wife
But with proofs that in life's battle
You are equal to the strife.
"Like the knight who's simple suing
Won the lady (says Che tale),
When, despite their wordy wooing,
All the rest were doomed to fail:
Lady quoth the bold Knight Errant,
Brief the story shall tell;
would wed thee; here's the warrant
/ shall love and serve thee wellp
"And, behold his dexter fingers
Crush a horseshoe, like a reed,
And within her lap there fingers
All the gold the twain can need"
