In December, 1887. In the February following he
was brought home dead from his duel with Graves
from Kentucky, death for which James Watson
Webb, OF the New York Courier aud Enquirer, was
primarily responsible. Franklin Pierce, the friend
and messmate Of Cey, was so affected by his death
that Mr.. Births family were apprehensive that HIS
mind would give way. This was In the last days OF
February, 1898.

THERE Is very stringent law against
persons jumping upon and riding on
railroad and street cars while In motion,
but like many other laws 1t has become
0 nullity for the want OF somebody to
enforce it. The least fine Is five dol
lars for an infringement Of the law
The nuisance OF small boys not more
than four years old jumping on the ex-
cursion car which meets the passengers
from the Brandywine every evening is
80 intolerable that 1t is with difficulty
pas sengers can get on the car, and then
ner vous people are kept in constant
state of dread for fear some OF these
youngsters may be dashed under the
wheels OF the car and crushed to death.
1t would be kindness on the part OF
the city railroad authorities to have
two or three of these boys arrested, and
fined, for If this is not done and the bad
habit broken up, some terrible accident
must sooner OF later occur with some OF
these daring little fellows that appar-
emily know no fear.

IT has now, we believe, become des-
nitely settled that the remains OF Gen.
Grant are to remain where they are on
Mt. McGregor until Tuesday, August
4, when they are to be taken to New
York the following day, remaining over
night in Albany. The remains are to
lie in state at the city Hall until Satur,
day, the Sth OF August, when they are
to be inferred in Central Park. oi
course 1t matters not now where the
hero sleeps, but 1t will strike the public
mind, we think, after all, that public
park, even though it be the Central, ii
not the most appropriate place for in
terment. Parks were created for a
very different purpose. Amongst the
veteran dead with whom he fought his
battles would have been the most ap-
propriate place to have lain the grea'
military chief.

SOME of the Democrats are loud in
their curses of Republican manufactu-

great deal Of bad breath If they would
call upon the moneyed men oftheir own
party to invest in manufactures. We
dare say a great many Republicans
would be glad to lease their prem

perhaps sell out entirely. The time

WHEN great railroad corporations
conspire and join together to prevent
another railroad from entering a city,
it is about time the people would take
the matter in hand and effect such leg
islation as will give all railroad com.
panies equal rights and privileges. The
baltimore & OHIO Railroad Company
own one of the large trunk lines OF the
country, and it is to their interest as
much as to the interest OF the people
at large to connect with all the leading
cities. The Baltimore & Ohio has for
years been trying to make connection
with the eastern cities. 1t has succeed
ed by dint of push and immense ex-
pense in working its way into Phila-
delphia, but when 1t be :omes apparent
that it has way clear to New York, it
hnds itself brought face to face with
two other powerful companies, that
have combined to thwart its purposes.
1t is not likely that they will succeed,
and as Vice President King said in
Philadelphia on Thursday, the Balti
more and Ohio will go to New York
Uer the New Jersey Central tracks il
they can, and over their own tracks i
they must. There was time when /
was the habit of walling in cities anc
calling them finished, but that time ha
long since passed away. 1t never wa
an American custom, anyhow, and W
hope will not become SO now in tn
light Of the nineteenth century TIL
Baltimore and Ohio Company has q
good right to go into New York q
Vanderbilt's road or the Pennsylvani
Railroad has, and il these roads posse

good things in legislation would be
