conscience and principle and is determined
to do the best thing in the rather peculiar
circumstances. With twenty-thrse dem
ocrats and only six republicans compos-
ing the employees Of the institution, he can
but agree with the opinion editorially ex-
pressed in the GLoBE-REPUBLIC that the
number of republicans to democrats is EN-
tirely out Of proportion, and that the appoint
ment Of such a large majority of demo-
Gratis by Doctor Jones is unfair, improper,
and could not be accidental.
We were not surprised, therefore, to
learn from General Lloyd that he is in
favor Of a change and that he will work
for it as soon As a suitable man can be Sc
cured for the position. and as he is an old
soldier and republican, in spirit and ac-
ton, always, he is in full agreement with
the position of the GLoBE-REPUBLIC-
namely-that the new man should be an
old soldier and a republican. But he must
be & man personally qualified to manage
the affairs Of the institution; humane man,
capable of giving effective personal atten-
ton to the physical and moral welfare and
training of the children-a matter TO which
all know that the General has himself given
much effort.
This is matter, the general holds, that
cannot be adjusted at once. Among candi-
dates there are men with some excellent
qualifications but with some defects, and it
iS nnt aasv IN select the man at once, who
has all the required qualifications and no
defects. These are the facts as to the situ-

The End of the World.

April %, Good Friday and St Georges day.
April -, Easter day and St Marks day
June "a, Corpus Christi and St Johns day
In the year 1885 occurs for the first time
in centuries that combination of holy days
and saints days which Nostradamus pre-
dicted would he the sign of the End Of the
World" His prediction made in Latin over
800 years ago was that the end of the world
would come in the year in which Good Friday
came on st. Georges day, and Easter occur
red on st. Marks day, and Corpus Christi
came on st. Johns day.
Nostradamus was a celebrated physician
and aStrOlOger in France, who died in ljtai
aged 60 years. His predictions have bsSn
for centuries the subject Of all immense
amount Of illustrative and controversial liter
atsre." In regard to the time for the fulfil
msnt OF these great prophecies, no thought
fal observer will say that the astrologer was
very far wrong, for the signs clearly indicate
ihe beginning Of the end. Within the next
century We may see the downfall Of the old
despotiSrns in Europe; the desolating wars:
the great tribuIition; the rule of communism.
nihili1n and anarchy; the dissolving of the
British empire, the division OF her landed
estates following the confiscarion of her church
property: the fall of the Turkish power, and
the restoration of the Jews to Palestine.

SOMETHING FOR MALARIA.

tfrphl Daltulvfs hStnLnk hsiAill
In the Kharkoo region Of Russia, 9uin-
inc is considered Of no account for the
cure of chills and fever. The KharkOo
doctor catches a mess Of live crabs, pours
whiskey over them until they become
hilariously drunk. and then puts them in
a hot oven. After being well dried they
are pulverized, shells and all and admins
tered in drachm doses. Where the crabs
most abound in this country, in the waters
of the Eastern shore Of Maryland and the
Eastern shore of Vsginia, the inhabitants
have long since abandoned the use of
quinine and sensibly resort to pre-
ysntion in the use Of pure whisky. In
the malarial sections of the great West,
Southwest and South. this once famed
remedy is now looked upon as worse than
the disease. In territories where the Yir-
gin sod is first broken, the malarial poison
eXuding therefrOm spreads pestlleuCe far
and near. Years ago in the homes of the
first settlers, an admiXture of whisky and
quinine was the fayOrite dose for the
chills. but after years of dosing in this
crude manner, quinine has long since
been given up and whisky only remains
in the flask for family. and medicinal use.
Experience taught these settlers long ago.

A general but erroneous notion that the
day of canals has passed, that they have been
superseded by railroads, is vigorously COM
bated by Horatio Seymour, Jr, in a PAM
phlet called The Canal Age" He shows that
railways never have carried freight as cheap
ly as canals, and probably never can; that
the Erie canal, far from being a tax, is a
profitable investment for the state; that Ger
many, Austria, England, and other countries
are rapidly extending their canal systems; /;
and that i'll the extent of our water routes
this country is relatively far behind Europe
Thus, France is engaged on four great water
ways, for which goo, ,0OO,0 900 have been appro-
priated, and which will cost much more; Ger
many and Russia are constructing canal from
the Baltic to the North sea; England is making
canals from London to Liverpool and Bristol
and from Manchester to Liverpool; while

We print today statement from friend
of J. II. and W. 5. Thomas. in refutation
of charges made against them in a local
sheet, and We give them TO the public to be
considered on their own merit, We may
state, concerning them, that the cOmmun-
catien fully and accurately represents the
views and position of the Thsmases. We
may add, however, that J. II. and w. S.
Thomas are democrats, and that the GLOBE
REPUBLIC is a republican newspaper and
uniformly opposes them when they are can
didates for Office, not because they are not
trustworthy, but because they are demo-
cratic partisans, and because We prefer to
support republicans, who are honest and
capable. for all the offices 10 be filled by sp-
poIntment OF election. Still. we approved
Of the placing of J. II. Thomas on the tax
commission, he having special qualifications
for the position; and he was appointed by a
republican judge, at the request Of republi
cans. after having been elected a water

votes. Still. il Mr.. Thomas should be
nominated for congress or for a state Office,
all these republicans, without exception,
aided by the GLoBE-REPUBLIC, would most

they somewhat resemble a broad vase or
