The Electoral Count.

The manner In which Senator Ed
munds announced the result Of the
electoral count seems to have excit-
ed the ire of Il good many Republi-
cans, who think they see in it heresy
to the party. 1t will doubtless be
remembered that during the Hayes
Tllden contest there was a great deal
OF discussion in the newspapers as TO
the power OF the Vice President in
the premises. The greater part OF
the Republican statesmen and edit
orS contended that it was the duty
of Mr. Ferry. then President pro
TEN. ol the Senate aad acting Vice
President, TO count such returns IS
he pleased in the joint convection
and declare the result, thus cxercis
ing an arbitrary power whith was
dangerous TO the liberties and rights
OF the people. The whole dispute
hinged on the question as to whether
the Wee President posses Judicial as
well as ministerial powers. II he
has the former, he can, in case OF
duplicate returns, as in 1867, dc
eide which shall be opened and
counted, and by his declaration de
termine as be pleases who is elected.
If his duty Is only clerical, all he can
do to open the returns, hand them TO
the tellers and announce the footings.
Then, as now, Senator Edmuuds
declared against the doctrine which
makes the Vice President dictator,
contcnding that he could only open,
count and declare the result of the
electoral votes; he had no right to
say who had, or who had not been
elected. This, too, was the generally
accepted Democratic theory, and the
best lawyer in the Senate then Mr..
Conkling, maintained the same opin-
ion. The matter was finally settled
for the time being by the creation of
the notorious "eight to seven" com.
mission.
In announcing the result as he did
on the Iltb, Senator Edmunds but
reiterated his often before expressed
opinion, and the Senate and House
have gone back to the mode of pro
ccedure which had obtained previous
to 1876, and have appointed joint
committee to formally notify Mr..
Cleveland Of his election.
The little breeze created over this
matter is only another proof that the
Eaton Electoral Count Bill ought to
be passed and the question finally
settled. In its present condition a
disputed Presidential count is the
most dangerous possibility of our
politics, and there is absolutely no
recognized and legal way OF dcterm-
lining the dispute If it should arise.
After the experience of 1876 and the
menace of 1884, it is madness to take
no steps for closing this wide-open
door OF civil strife.

A bill was introduced into the
New York Legislature last week,
entitled San Act for the Suppress
sion of Sentimental Gusb and the
Qualification Of Felons." It's pro
visions are as follows; ANY person,
male or female, who shall send 10 a
convicted felon, or to perssn held
for trial for the crime Of murder In
any Jail, prison or penitentiary of
this State, boquet of flowers or
other sympathetic token, shall, for
the first offence, be subject TO a fine
OF not less than $40, nor more than
$25, to be imposed by any court OF
competent jurisdiction, on the com
plant of any citizen, and for like
subsequent otfense shall be liable TO
Imprisonment in the county jail, not
less than ten or more than twenty

ingly convey to any convicted MUIR
derer or person held for trial for the
crime of murder, any sucn forbidden
token, shall be liable to penalties in
like manner, and to the same extent
as is herein provided" The bill Is
regarded as u Joke, but it would be
most wholesome enactment for
other states besides New York.

The Shiahs and SUMS.

One of the most striking characters.
tics of the Afghan aud Turcoman tribes,
which has more than once been very
skillfully utilized by Russia in her oper.
ations against them, is the extreme bit
terness with which they take sides in the
great controversy between the SUM and
Shah sects. The Shiahs, who are strong
in Persia, hold Mohammed's n-in-law,
Ali, the fourth Caliph, to be the prophets
only legitimate successor, denouncing
his three forerunners as usurpers, while
the SUMS, who abound in Afghanistan,
hold a directly opposite creed. This
feeling, which has made the countless
Perso Afghan wars unspeakably fero'
cious, is carried to such height that an
Englishman who lately begged the life
of wounded Persian was answered by
one of his Afghan comrades; "Were
he OILY an unbeliever l would spare him,
but being Shah he must die" A
stranger entering an Afghan or Turcoman
camp is often met with the challenge,
"What say'st thou of the first three
Caliphs7" and should be pronounce in
their favor, the crucial question follows,
"What think'st thou of Ali9" to which
if he value his life, he must reply, GAL;
was a Kafir" GnfdeD.

The Origin of Opium.

According to the Bengali legend
there once lived on the banks Of the
holy River Ganga Rishi, or sage, in
whose hut, made of palm leaves, there
was mouse which became favorite
with the seer, and was endowed by him
with the gift of speech. After awhile
the mouse, having been frightened by o
cat, at its earnest solicitations was
changed by Rishi into cat, then,
alarmed by dogs into dog; then into
an ape; then into bear; then into an
elephant, and finally, being still discon-
tented with its lot, into beautiful
maiden, to whom the sage gave the name
of "Postomani," or. the "poppy- seed
lady," One day, while tending her
plants, the king approached the Rishis
cottage, and was invited to rest and re-
fresh himself by Postomani who offered
him some delicious fruit. The king,
however, struck by the girls beauty, re-
fused to eat until she had told him her
parentage. Postomani, to deceive the
king, told him she was princess whom
the Rishi had found in the woods and
had brought up. The upshot
was that the king made love
to the girl, and they were
married by the holy sage, She was
treated as the favorite queen, and was
very happy; but one day while standing
by we'll she turned giddy, fell into the
water and died. Tho Rishi then ap
peared before the king and begged hin
not to give way to consuming grief, as
suring him that the late queen was mo-
of royal blood. Said he, "She was {
mouse; and, according to her own wish
l changed her successively into a cat, {
dog, an ape, bear, an elephant, and 9
lovely girl. Let her body remain in the
well fill up the well with earth. Out o.
her flesh and bones will grow a tree
which shall be called after her, 'Posto
that is, the 'poppy-tree.' From this trc'
will be obtained drug called opium,
which will be either swallowed or smoked
till the end of time. The opium
swallower or smoker will have one
quality of each of the animals to which
Postomani was transformed He will be
mischievons, like mouse; fond of milk
like a cat; quarrelsome, like a dog
filthy, like an ape; savage, like bear
and high-tempered, like queen."-

Hanging Baskets.

Hanging baskets for plants are made OF
different materials, and in great vari-
ETY. of forms. Some are formed of wire,
other of clay, and ornamented with fancy
holdings, etc. Very pretty baskets in
rustic style are made by covering the
outside of wooden bowl with fantastic
knots and roots; this makes a pleasing
basket, but we know of none so desira-
BILE as the old style of semi-globular
wire basket, when properly filed.
To fill wire basket, first obtain some
of the green moss to be found on the
lower portion of the trunks of trees in
almost any shady piece of woods. This
is to be used as lining to the basket,
turning the green side out, and entirely
covering the inside of the wire form
with the moss. Before filing the bas.
ket with soil, place handful of char
coal or gravel in the bottom, which will
hold the moisture. Fill the basket
with rich, loose loan, such as will not
harden by frequent waterings. Plants
that are peculiarly suitable for hang
ing baskets are quite numerous, and
from them a selection may be made
that will please the most exacting
taste. 1t is mistake to crowd too
many plants into basket; if they grow
they will soon become root-bound,
stunted, and look sicklY. If the hang
ing basket be of ordinary size, one large
and choice plant placed in the center
with few graceful vines to droop over
the edges, will have better effect when
established and growing, than if it were
crowded with plants at the time of fill.
ing. Hanging baskets being constantly
suspended, they are exposed to draughts
of air from all sides, and the soil is soon
dried out. Hence careful watching is
necessary in order to prevent the con.
tents from becoming too dry. If the
moss appears to be dry, take the basket
down and Dip once or twice in pail
of water; this is better than sprinkiing
from watering-pot. In filing hanging
baskets, or vases of any kind, we inVari.
ably cover the surface of the soil with
the same green moss used for lining,
which, while it adds materially to the
pleasing appearance of the whole, pre-.
vents the soil from drying out or becom.
ing baked on the surface. II the sur
face of the soil in pots be covered with
moss of this kind, especially in summer,
moisture will be retained, and watering
be required much less frequently. -
