Adversely has bound the readjusters Of vir-
ginia together again, If Senator Riddleberger is
to be believed, as he says in an interview to-day
that the party has been reunited, and will 60
into the coming contest for the control Of the
state government with as much enthusiasm
and unanimity as 1t did four years ago. As Mr.
Riddleberger has been of late rather an un-
steady supporter of Malone, this assurance
coming from him has especial weight just now.
The readjusters feel, no doubt, that their exist
ence as party is st stake, and, recognizing this
main fact, they are willing to sink minor dif-
ferences for the present. The convention, which
opens tomorrow, BIDS fair to be unusually in
teresting.

On the fifteenth of this month occurs an event
which the patient American people certainly
never expected TO see, namely, the emancipa-
ton of Niagara Falls. Little by little this
browning natural wonder had been seized upon
by Philistines, with an eye to the main chance,
and made to bring dollars and dimes, espe-
cially dollars, to their Unsuitable pockets. But
the scandal finally became outrageous that
the state interfered tor very shame, and by an
appropriation OF about one million dollars sat-
isfed the claims of the natives and rescued the
falls from their clutches. Most of the scenery
on the American side Is now to be free, and be-
fore long the same can be said of the Canadian
side, as the dominion authorities are acting in
concert with New York state, and intend to
free and make into an International park q
large strip of land On their side of the river.
Under the new regime ii Is estimated that the
saving In fees alone to each visitor who 'does"
the falls thoroughly Will be eleven dollars.
1.-The Mahdi must be smashed" is what Gen.
Wolseley tells the English government, if there
is To be peace in Egypt. This is equivalent to
admitting, though the lucky incompetent
doesn't say il in many words, that there
must be a change in commanders in Egypt
Wolseley isn't equal to the job.

 A knowledge of shorthand is fast be. coming an essential in the mercantile service of London. Without it a young man, however capable in other respects stands at serious disadvantage; with il he commands an ampler salary, and oc. cupies an immensely superior position in the great race. It is astonishing, never. sheless, that of the many thousand who who make the art an object of study, so few are really competent and trustwo orthy y writers. Speed is beyond all cavil the sole and guiding desideratum of the art but where we have one man qualified to follow every syllable articulated by such notoriously "easy" speaker as the premier, there are crowds who, thoueh b approaching the task with "every conf dence," would discover that they had not enough of that wholesome commodity, backed up by a modicum of ability, to carry them through. If, as is insisted, the average rate of public speaking is I 20 words per minute and this is under the mark), two thirds of that figure about represent the record of the fourth estate. Verbatim reporting is manifestly on the decline, chiefly by reason of its not being required except for private and official purposes, and to some extent on account of forsenic incapacity. ltis allowed that shorthand, whatever its perfection as an art, has not kept in the front in the mat ter of speed.
