story is for the most part laid in the High
lands of Scotland, and contains many of
those gems of sea and landscape painting of

tons of salmon fishing are really thrilling
the reader fairly holding his breath until the
big silvery fish are safely in the boat. The
hero is an amateur poet, and although one
might wish him little less ELUSIVE, many of
the poems are very pretty. Among the char
acters is party of American tourists. Their
countrymen will be apt to think them over
drawn but we cannot ''see oursers as ithers

at Lake George, the description of which is

book for children is a big beauty, and all the

Its prose and verse contains good deal of

will be amusing to wise heads as well as
youngsters, and the volume will doubtless
prove to be one of the most popular among
the many prepared for the approaching holi-

THE great wisdom of Lowry's re-nomi.
nation was shown in the fact that he had
no opposition. The Republicans, Greon-
hackers, Independents and Soreheads
combined, knew they could not beat him,
and that 1t would be a waste Of time an d
money to attempt it. hence they quietly
retired and let him run through without
opposition. This saved the people of the
State many thousands of dollars in time
and money necessary for a canyass.-Brdn.
don Republican.
The appointing power is indeed
hard to dislodge, but that is no
argument in support of wisdom
either way. The opposition to
Lowry was indeed peculiarly an
economical set, and for that reason
they opposed his Excellency. Hope
be will do better, however. Throw

The untsmely death OF Mr.. Hen.
bricks has cccasioued the necessity
OF the determination ut one of the
most dinicult questions pertaining
to the political organism Of the
United States that has arisen since
the Constitution was ratified. The
law prescribing the manner of fill
ing such a vacancy ~ SO vague and
uncertain that ii will devolve upon
Congress TO pass a law TO meet the
present emergency. What that
Law shall be becomes more inter
esting on account of the political
complexion which figures cOspicu-
ously in the matter. The vacancy
of the office of Vice President
leaves the Senate without a presid.
ipg officer. That body has a Re-
publican majority, and, therefore,
have it in their power to elect a
Republican TO that position TO sue
coed "a Democrat. But to do this
would be directly in opposition to
the expressed will of the people,
who have declared tor a Democratic
administration. 1t remains to be
seen whether the Republicans OF
the Senate will respect the wishes
Of the people aud cling as stead
lastly, as OF old, TO the theory that
the United States Government is a
National one spelled with a big n.
This body is Republican by a una.
isrity of States of that political
teneLt, which, in their sovereign
capacity, have the control of that
body. The question, then is, will
tkey seize that advantage to defeat
tbs Rill OF the people expressed
directly and numerically. We have
h0INes that such will not be the
esnsr, as it. would be an uhwise poll.
aud could only be excused in
time to come upon theory which
that party has combatted ever since
the Government was established,
with reference to the relative rights
of the States and the National
Government. Besides, it would be
an unpatriotic and dangerous thing
for the party to do, and IN unwise
Que for Uhe Senate to do. 1t is con-
trsry 10 the policy of the Govern.
ment that the Senate shall have
the power to do such a thing, and
Il is only by accident that they
have it now. If they abuse it, it
will necessarily have a demOralizing
effect on the whole of our excellent
Democratic system OF Government,
such as no wise and patriotic states
man would wish to zee.

urged for the position by the Re
