A recent Washington dispatch says:
ga prominent democratic senator
gives it as his opinion that the result
in the Ohio election was ga warning to
Cleveland that he would better stop his
blank nonsense and do as other presi-
dents had done, and as all persons, ir-
respective of party, expected him to do,
give the Offices to his political friends. !"
He did not care to have the depart
ment cleaned out Of republicans, but
thought that when changes were made
democrats SHOULD be appointed. He
had gone to the White house to day,
expecting to find Cleveland either ugly
or humble, but had found him neither,
The president appeared to be in self
satisfied mood, and while the Ohio ell
ection was not referred to in their pres
ence he did not act. as if he had met
with any disappointment. He had
heard thas the president intended to
let things drift on as they were going,
until be was entirely separated from
the working majority of the party that
elected him to power. The result of
the Ohio election, the senator believed,
would aid the republicans to carry
New York and Virginia, but he did
not think the president would regard
any such warnings. Cleveland was
such an Internal egotist as to believe
that ha was the only man in the coun-
try that knew what was right. Moth
ing can be ascertained of the views of
the president, and it is believed that he
has not expressed them to any one If
he has done so it is only to his conf
Dental friends who dare not quote him.
IT is not believed, however, that the
Ohio defeat will cause any change in
his treatment of his candidates fol
office.

Animal Eccentricities.

If a man begins to save against his
old age, we call it thrift, and praise him
as a small capitalist who is giving hos
tages to fortune; but if dog accumu-
lates store of bones or food, we look
'pon him as indulging in dangerous
caprices, which may end in the neces-
sity of putting a bullet through his
aead. There may be exceptions here
and there. Sometimes you will find
an old lady who will protect eccentric
ity in parrot, a magpie, OF jackdaw,
as bird that has right to certain
freedom of movement in return for its
entertaining attempts at conversation.
But, on the whole, there is no sterner
standard of conventionality than that
which we enforce on our domestic ami
mails. Pet dogs become perfect bigots
in favor of the usual, and pcrsecute
any attempt to deviate from it on the
part even of a more powerful and less
favored colleague, as the Inquisition
prosecuted heresy, or as the court Of
Russia persecutes Nihilism. There is
nothing equal to the indignation of an
indoors dog at any invasion of the
privacy of the drawing-room by an out
doors dog, and nothing more melan-
choly than the servile apologies which
the big dog will make to the little one,
for even proposing to break through
the animal etiquette of the house.
