I Natural Death.

Is to die sweetly without sob, struggle
or sigh. 1t lis the result of long life of
uninterrupted health, of long life of "ten-
perance in all things" and such death
should be one of the ends and aims of every
human being, so that we may not only live
long, but in that long life be able to do
much for man, and much for God.
The love of life is universal instinct life
is duty, its peril or neglect a crime We
are placed on earth for purpose, that pur-
pose can be none other than to give us an
opportunity of DUNG good to ourselves and
to others, and to be anxious to be ''Cf duty, :"
sooner than God wills, is no indication of
true piety. The good man has one ruling,
ever present desire, and that is tolive as long
on earth as his maker pleases, and while
living to do. the utmost he can to benefit and
bless mankind ; and to accomplish long
and active, and useful life, and study how
to preserve and promote a high degree of
bodily health is Indispensable. And it seems
to have been ordained by Providence both
kind and wise, as reward of temperate
life, that such life should be as calm as a
summers evening; as gentle as the babe
sleeps itself away on its mothers bosom.

Austaia and Italy Insulted.

The French give peculiar shade of mean
ing to their term di6icile for which in our
language we have no exact counterpart. 1t
may be translated literally the obvious ap-
plication of which is seen at sight. But col
loquially the word has an abstruse value
which our cruder terminology has not yet
recognized. 1t is applicable socially to in
tractableness, to that species of obstinacy
and bull-headedness arising more from a
well-defined lack of certain mental or moral
endowment which continually places the
unfortunate individual unconsciously at war;
lance with his natural surroundings and
with the conditions and expectations that
the world is entitled to look for.
Monday last President Cleveland present
ed TO the Senate copy Of all the papers and
correspondence on file in the Department of
State relating to the appointment of Mr.. A.
NJ. Kelley as Minister to Italy and his sub
sequent appointment as minister to Aus
tria
The public is possessed of the facts already.
Still 1t is most opportune to take notice of
Mr.. Bayard's method in this affair, which,
stupid as it is need not have occurred had the
Secretary of State used the most ordinary
foresight and discretion. But the blunder,
which was inevitable with Mr.. Bvyard, once
being made, it is followed rp by the most
extraordinary tone of assertion, of imperti.
uence to freudly state, which considering
Mr.. Bayard's position, and what should
always be expected in the intermediary
position of foreign secretary in his duties
as a species of go-between among independ-
ent nations, is nothing less than amazing
But it is not amazing to those acquainted
with the Honorable Thomas A. Bayard. He
is without that bump, as phrenolcgist would
say. He lacks the moral capacity or sug-
gestion for considering the rights of others.
However wrong Austria may be, or super
stitions, she is an independent state. Mr..
Bayard has no right whatever to speak in
the pronounced almost brutally bare termi-

Educational Interests.

AT the last meeting of the Board of Edu-
cation DR.. Shortlidge, in making motion
for the discharge of the committee on Teach
ers Institute 'offered a remark of gratifca-
tlon at the success Of the institute held at
Wilmington, and the recognition it had re-
ceiyed from the press.
We regret that the Doctor, who is one of
the live members of that very important
Board, did not take the opportunity of dila-
ting somewhat more upon the point The
Board, did not take the opportunity of dila
ting somewhat more upon the point. The
press is undoubtedly on its part thoroughly
alive to the great Importance and prominence
that is due to all educational matters, Else
where, mother localities, the state teachers
meetings are the event of the year, transcend
ing, often in public interest the Conferences
Synods, and gatherings OF the different
religious denominations. We should like
to see, at least an equal interest exhibited in
the meetings of our educators in Delaware,
Our school teachers represent several hun
dred of the brightest and best people IN th'
State of Delaware. They are those who
have given themselves up TO the service o
the State. They have devoted themselves

to the development of our closet interests.
They demand then, or they should compel
some adequate recognition. We are not
such contemplate people as to suppose the
small salary these teachers receive is any
exchange for the services they render to the
State. In honoring them our citizens can
honor no more worthy body of public SER
wants. This idea is not sufficiently reoog-
nized. Upon whom more than the school
teacher does the future of our children de-
pend Let our citizens of Wilmington then,
at the next meeting of teachers in this city
make some attempt toward exhibiting the
appreciation we have of our most laborious,
poorly requited public servants.
In Kent and Sussex, where the Teachers
Institutes have been progressing, the people
of those localities, in Georgetown and
Smyrna welcomed them with all social
courtesies. Let Wilmington do something
in the way of hospitality when the next op-
portunity offers.

Christmas.

As we are now upon the eve of another
Christmas day let us enjoin upon our read
ers the Importance of each and every one
selecting at least one unfortunate family and
visit said family with such as its necessities
may demand. Each of us may know of
those who have been borne down by adverse
circumstances and we will feel better
for having added our mite towards bettering
the condition Of our fellow being.
1t occurs to us that the sting OF poverty
is more keenly felt at Christmas time than
at any other season of the year. Think
child of fortune of the heart-sorrows Of chat
mother as she hears her little ones clustered
about her knee talking of what "good old

Did you ever transform yourself into

mas eve with well filled market on your
arm to comfort and cheer the families of the
poor, afflicted and istressed-however
gratifying iJ may be to receive it is more
blessed to give, under the above surround
ings?
The times are distressingly bad in many
quarters and the sunlight of Christmas will
be barred from many homes unless those,
upon whom kind providence has generously
smiled. exercise a kindly interest in their
neighbors. We sincerely hope that within
the confines of this city not one single fapii-
ly shall have cause to feel ON Christmas day
that they are friendless and forsaken.

Muzzle the Dogs.

sons prlze.Set rid of them, There is no rea

We will be psrdoned making another ex-
cerpt from the same journal.
"Professor Francis Butler, who died in
June, 1874, was known in this. community
as the most famous dog fancier in the world.
He said of himself that he had owned, at one
time and another during his life, more than
ten thousand dogs. He used frequently to
make two statements--frst, that for some
unknown reason no dog would ever bite
him, and second, that hydrophobia was
simply the igment OF dsordered imagna-
tion. He was, nevertheless, doomed TO be
bitten by dog, mad dog, and after a few
weeks he died terrible death by hydi oph,-
bia."
If che citizens of Wilmington would only

ent custom of letting their dogs roam tue
streets unmuzzled they would be doing what
| is Just and nothing more.
Are we to wait till an epidemic of ra-
bies breaks out here, resulting in the death
OF human beings. 1t is now conceded that
that terrible disease assumes the shape
of an epidemic among dogs at certain times.
| It is claimed TO have existed in Loudon,
the current year, where there were twenty
three well defined cases Of hydrophoba.

licensed or not; and TO make very heavy

Robert Toombs.

The noted confederate soldier and states
man General Robert Toombs, ''the fiery
Georgian, who believed in secession to the
last and refused to be reconstructed into
citizen" died at Washington, Ga., Tuesday
morning, December 10Th.
General ToCmbs was one of the very few
irreconcileables remaining in the country.
Next to Jefferson Davis he was the most
prominent of the survivals of the War of the
Rebellion. He will be always remembered
in the North as tho man who threw out, at
the time Of the firing at Fort Sumter, the
threat "that he would yet call the roll of his
slaves at the foot of Bunker Hill Monument.
General Toombs was not to be converted
from his dislike Of the "d-d Yankees" !"
whose anathematization he seemed to con-
slider proper occupation, and one which he
indulged in ad libitum.
He was man of great parts and mental
endowments, and it is matter of great re-
gret that his fiery temperament came as a
barrier between the possibilities Of national
eminence that reconciliation with his fell
low countrymen would in all probability
have afforded one of his varied capacities
and kindly nature.
1t might be added that General Toombs
himself denies that he made the assertion in
regard to calling his slave roll at Bunker
Hill Monument, and that it was lie OF
John Hale of New Hampshire.

Departed statesmanship.

New York Tribune (Rep)
President Cleveland and Secretary Bayard
show discreditabe disposition to evade the
real question of the Kelley matter. They
had no excuse for sending to Italy or to
Austria man known to be Objectionable.
There was not even the pretext of a reason
for choosing Kelley rather than somebody
else. It is not pretended that any such
reason existed. Mr.. Kelley was inconspic-
Gus, inexperienced, no VII re especially pop
ular had rendered no especial public service,
and was in point in fact almost unknown.
There was no reason forsending to the Court
of King Humbert man who made an
abusive speech against King Humbert's
father, or, after Italy rejected him, for send
ing him to King Humbert's kinsman in
Austria. The United States wished to be at
peace with those nations. There was no
occasion for raising with them any question
in regard to the relations between the Italian
government and the Catholic Church, or be-
tween the ladies of the Austrian Court and
other ladies of different race. President
Cleveland will not seriously claim that any
such intention existed, or that there was the
slightest reason for it. But if not, persist
ence in the appointment of sucha man, even
after confidential suggestions that the selec-
tion would be Objectionable, was deliber-
ate and wanton insult. All the rest of the
business, as set forth in the official des-
patches, is merely trickery, fit fol, shysters
in police court, but unworthy of a Secretary y
of State or President. Having made a
serious blunder, it would have been manly
to admit it. Or, if they lacked character
for that course, it would have been more
shrewd to say nothing about it. The at
tempt to play the demagoeue about it. and
to get up political capital by appealing tC
prejudioes of race or religion, is likely tc
end disastrously, as such attempts usually

noogy he uses in his correspondence. The
simplest criticism IS to say it is undiplomat-
ic.
Austria nor Italy are amenable to our
laws. Both those countries have perfect
right to perpetuate their traditional customs
just as long as they please. What is it to
them that, as Mr.. Bayard takes the discour-
teous liberty to tell the King of Italy and
the Emporer of Austria
"The supreme law of this land expressly
declares that mo religions test shall ever be
required as qualification to any office or
public trust under the United States" and
by the same authority it is declared that
"Congress shall not make no law respecting
an establishment of religion or prohibiting
the free exercise thereof"
Probably the jurists Of both those count
ries are perfectly familiar with our constitu-
| tional laws-but the question is one that
affects their laws or social customs, and as
the minister is to be located in their count
ry, Gt is not question of an Austrian or
Italian minister in Washington) to be resi-
dent under their flag, those countries have
every right to the position they have taken
in the matter.
The whole trouble in this complication
arises from the fact that we have a head of
the Department of State, who in the first
place has the capacity for bunglng in maxi
ing his choice for foreign appointments, and
in the second place lacks the suave, courteous
placable qualifications inseparably neces-
sary for diplomat whose most eugrossipg
duties are necessarily in the direction of cor
respondeuce with foreign powers, their rep
resentatives and ambassadors, who may
have ideas, traditions, laws and customs
totally at variance with those of this
country.

considers another prolific source of holding

the air in close proximity to the wlndow-panes
being several degrees cooler than that fur

Sudden changes from the room used as

be avoided by extra wraps when it is neces-
sary to expose baby to such change
Flannel night-dressss coming below the
feet far enough to allow of being drawn
tightly at the hem, forming bag, without
preventing the baby using his feet with per-
feet freedom, are one of the means to prevent
exposure at night. Marion Harland sug-
