AN IMPORTANT MATTER.

In article II of the Constitution of the United States may be found provision that the President shall nominate, and by and with the consent of the Senate, shall appoint ambassadors, other than public ministers and consuls, judges of the Supreme court and all other officers of the United States whose appointments are not herein other wise provided for, and which shall be estab- lished by law. But Congress may by law vest the appointment of such inferior officers as they think proper in the President alone, in the courts of law, or in the heads of departments.
 The provision has attracted the attention of some of those stold- fashioned Democrats'' who occasionally write to the New York Sun, and he deduees from it an argument that the Civil Service act is unconstitutional. He asks: Is there any restriction upon the appointing power of the President except the consent of the Senates Will anyone pretend that Congress can impose any other tuition upon his appointments? And he says: If so, it would be competent for 8 partisan Congress to provide that only par ticular partisans should be eligible to ap- pointments, and rob the President of the pre- rogative of choice conferred by the Constitu- tion. It seems equally clear to this old fashioned Democrat that if Congress should see fit to vest the appointment of inferior officers in the President alone, or in the courts of law, or in the heads of departments, the President in the first place, the courts in the second, and the heads of the depart ments in the third would be vested with the sole responsibility and unrestricted power to make such appointments; and when such power should be so vested, the power of Congress to interfere would be exhausted. He therefore con- cludes that any effort or attempt by Congress to take away from or limit the power of the President, the courts, or the heads of de- partments in their discretionary exercise of the appointing power would be unconstitutional, and that the Civil Service commission is neither President, the courts, nor the head of departments and hence has no lawful authority to interfere with the appointments to office, except as good citizens, by perti- nent recommendation and advice.
 These are the views which an old-fashioned Democrat might be expected to have concern ing the great reform. They are plausible and somewhat forcible. But as the Civil Service act does not take away the appoint ing power from those to whom the Constitu- tion and Congress give it, this old-fashioned Democrat is doomed to disappointment.

e4uauGy or Gle sexes that aG 1eaSG one more convention will be necessary to settle the matter.
 Alderman Watson of Columbia, South Carolina, was recently brought before Mayor Rhett of that city for horsewhipping negro, whose life he had previously threatened. The Mayor imposed the heaviest penalty in his power, and said he regretted he couldn't double it. Now the Democratic club of AL derman Watson's ward has requested him to resign his seat in the board forthwith. :" The city auditor deprecated the making such serious matter of the whipping of a negro, and a MT. Earle pleaded for the alder man on the ground that he was 'connected with one of the best families in the back country" but the members of the club were memorable, and the leading Democratic news paper of the South applauds their action. The new South is evidently growing.
 Among the many plans presented to the committee intrusted with the organization of the Paris exposition of 1889 that of M. Coli bert is one of the most attractive. The principal feature of it is the reconstruction of the Rue Saint-Antoine and the Bastille, such as they were in 1789. The committee has already chosen as the site of the Expo sition the Champ-de-Mars, to which it has added the Palais d'Industrie, together with the Pont des Invalides and the Quai d 'Orsay. M. Colibert's plan would be that on crossing the bridge the visitor should find himself abruptly transported into the eighteenth century. On his right would be the Hotel de Mayenne, with the two separate pavilions that adorned it in 1799, and the little church of Sainte- Marie; on his left, the high houses with pointed gables, the tower at the corner and the pepper-box turrets, such as are shown in the engravings of the time, while the view would be closed by the impressive mass of the Bastille, it's walls pierced with 1oopholes, it's eight heavy towers, its battle ments, it's sentry -turrets on the platforms, and the four cannons that were fired on the people on the 14th of July. The shops of the various tradesmen of the period will be reproduced, with the workmen plying their trade according to the usages of the time; here natter, there blacksmith. further on printer distributing fac similes of old news papers printed on the now almost legendary handpress. At night the street will be lighted, and the wretched resin tapers en- ployed by the poorer classes will present most striking contrast with the electric lights used in the other parts of the Exposi-

 The electrician of the Bell Telephone com pany declares, after visiting France and Ger many, that electric wires will work better, in densely populated regions, underground than overhead: that their durability is greater and the cost of repairs almost nothing.
 The Church of England Funeral and Mourning association is engaged in good work. It deprecates the cruel and wanton absurdities of funeral customs, and is doing it's best to urge people to spend less money and make less pomp in funeral mourning. There is room for such an association in this country.
 The Roman Catholic church has done a great deal towards the spread of temperance and total abstinence The parade of the Total Abstinence Union to-day will be an impressive and cheering sight to all of our citizens who are interested in lsssening the evils which result from the use of intoxicat- ing drinks.
 The Vicksburg Herald finds that there is 8 better feeling among the negroes of Missis- sippi and says it ought to be encouraged. The political business, hereafter, will be con fined to regulating the whites. The Herald says: "The whites should chiefly direct their attacks on the white bosses and kill them when it becomes necessary to protect society, and spare the negroes" There is sense in this.
 Some differences between life in an old State and in a new one are shown by the l comparative statistics of labor and wages in Massachusetts and Illinois.

In Massachusetts the percentage of women em- | ployed is 30. 13Sas against 12.16 in Illinois; and the total number of women and children | employed in the Eastern States is nearly twice as great as in the western.

 Probably few people are aware that there are between five thousand and six thousand Icelanders living in this country.

make for those that remained when he was gone. When he mentioned his six children and seven grandchildren he came to speak of the families of brother officers, men, his peers in the service years ago, who passed away only to leave those dependent on them beggars for office at Washington, willing to work 10 hours for $40 month, simply to get bread and meat Forty such instances he said he could recall, and the thought seemed to have it's deep pathos as the gener- al dwelt feelingly upon it.

The Weeds of the Sea.

From the NoW OrK Sun.
 Botanists class all sorts of howerless plants that grow in the water, and that are commonly called sea-weed, under the general term of alge. There are a great variety of these plants. Some of them are like parti- cles of dust; others spread out to a size and strength to compare with hawsers, though they don't look much like hawsers. There are many curious and interesting things to be told of sea-weeds, and the number of peo- pie who would make study of such vegeta- tion would be much greater than it is if wri- ters on the subject would give names to the plants which could be remembered without an intimate knowledge of Latin. Thus, to begin with the smallest plants, it is asserted that the Red Sea got it's name from the pro- digious quantity of small red plant that spreads over the water under certain circum- stances. A much more common variety of the marine plants is found in great quanti- ties around the coast of the British islands In the streets of Edinburg you will see the vendors going up and down crying, "Dulse and tankle." They carry great punches of the dull red leaves, which are sold for food. They are sale in this country to limited extent, and the taste is not at all bad. Usu- ally you will find multitude of minute
 
 leaf, and these give a flavor to the leaf that is greatly liked. The leaves are eaten either raw or cooked as greens or in soups. They are also used in place of tobacco. The smoke of cigar rolled from dulse leaves is pleasant and healthful.
 A very abundant sort of weed found in various forms almost all over the world is the bladder wrack. It is distinguished by its long arms or fronds, as the botanists call them, which are supported in the water by air bladders. There is a legend that great many years ago crew of shipwrecked sail ors built fire of this weed; which they found along shore. When the fire had died out they found a dark cake where the ashes should have been, and in wonder carried it away with them. A chemist found that the cake was a valuable soda, and formed com pany to dig pits and burn the weed to obtain this soda, which bore the name of kelp. The poor working people along shore could no | understand this new method of handling the weed they used for maturing their fields The thick black smoke which rose from tn, pits was foul, and the company, like moderr companies engaged in useful occupations was brutally careless of the feelings of th'

- For instance. Anderson's fine Scotch Ginghams are reduced to 25c from 4oc; all Fancy French Sateens from 35 and 4c Eents to 25c; 12 1ac Ginghams to Sc; all Lawns to SC, and every thing else proportionately,
 A very cheap lot of Victoria Lawns are at the White Goods counter, We bought them in remnants, length to yards, and so cheap that the fine quail ties at 8, 9, 10, I2 and TAG are quite equal to Lawns from the piece at ii; 16, is, 20 and 25C. As all of a price are of the same duality, a dress will cost about half-price if it is pieced little.
 In the Linen stock were few fine goods slightly soiled. That is the reason for marking some Bleached Damask from $2. 50 to $1.75, from $1.75 to $I.25, &c. A lot of Towels which were 75c, S5c and $I, mostly ST, are made SOC for the same reason. Another lot from SIPS afe made 75c. Some fine Quilts from $7 are made $5, and from $6 are reduced to SAYS. Such is the penalty we pay for dirt.
 Our Summer Calicoes are al- most all reduced-the Sc ones to SC, the SC ones to SC. Cottons are marked at the lowest prices yet quoted-Lonsdale Cambric 1oc, Fruit of the Loom 7c, An droscoggin 6Hc, &c. Have you seen that wonderful bargain in Unbleached Canton Flannel at Sc.
