Southern democrats, who favor the contln'

THE RECi MI order of Postmaster General
Villas is censured in some quarters, demo.
cratic as well as republican, for the asserted
reasons that it attempts to impose detective
work upon members of Congress, and that
while it makes great autter over the small
fry, the larger fish are permitted to continue
in the receipt of their lucrative salaries.
Whether these reasons are good or bad is
no matter. The order referred to is good
and wise one. The county and village
postmasters are those who come in contact
with the people, aud whose combined in
fuence when exerted for par,iann effect, as
has certainly been done in Virginia, and
especially when. exerted upon the ignorant
and easily deceived negroes, is immense.
If the more lucrative positions must be re
tanned by men who have prostituted them
to partisan purposes, by all means let the
more numerous and poorer paid pals of
those men be gotten rid OF as soon as pos
sible. The country, particularly the South,
ii it can not get the whole loaf of reform,
will be Thankful for piece.

From the Popular Science Monthly
The study of the fight of birds and insects has
of late years received great deal of attention
and in general way the motions of the wings
are fairly well understood. We could probably
very closely initiate these motions, but the aues-
ton at once arises, in doing SO, would we be apply
ing our power in the most effective way? While
somewhat similar, the movement and construc-
tlon OF the wings OF flying creatures vary con-
siderably. What Is best for q heavy body with
short wings is by no means best for q Light body
with long wings; nor does a sea bird, Constantly
on the wing but perhaps not q rapid flyer, fly
and, in any particular case, it does not neces-
sarily follow that nature has provided the most
efficient apparatus; or in other words, that the
power the bird possesses could not be utilized
more effectively. Nature cannot always be
trusted. We can study and understand her
laws but she does not pretend to apply tn EN- ON
economical principles. Fish and marine
animals swim in a great variety of ways, they
nave all sorts of prOpelling arrangements but
there can be no doubt that q screW-propeller is
vastly more efficient than any OF them: and
why should we try to copy the motions of a
birds wing any more than those of fishs tail?
The motions are very complicated in any case
and our machines, Initiating them, would be
complex and liable to get out of order And
one cannot help thinking that we are about as
nhely to make steam road wagon by imi-
tating the action of q horse we are to make u
practicable flying machine by copying the
motions of bird, The desired results can pro-
badly be obtained inamuch more simple and
effective way. -

Deaths from Football.

FHOm the Pan Mall GaZette.
The football season has barely yet got into full
swing, but already two deaths have been caused
by the game, besides goodly number of
broken limbs. The controversy as to the COM
parative safety of the two styles of playing
Is left just where it was before, since of the
deaths occurred in an association, the other in q
Rugby match, though at the inquest held on
Inc latter a witness assured the coroner that
Rugby football was much less dangerous. In
either form the game is somewhat barbarous,
put, Notwithstanding. it increases in popular
ity every year, and side by side with the multi
Pilcat1on of clubs ana matches are greater
chances of danger. Enth usiasts will not hear
OF any reform on the side of mildness, and from
their point of view they are right, for If you
modify the game you spoil it; but, on the other
nand, If the game is left as it is it cannot be
denied that the risk attendant on it exceeds
that due amount which is inseparable from all
outdoor games

Keep Baby's Head Cool.
Dio Lewis, Nuoppfs

The proximate If not the remote cause of a
large proportion of deaths among children is
some disease of the head. When we suppose
the death to be caused by dysentery or cholera
infantum, the Immediate cause Of death is an
affection of the brain supervening upon the
bowel disease. The heads of American chill
dren are for the most part, little furnaces
