ment, and that he has entered the San Fran
cisco tournament, with hope Of carrying off

whirl with him. If SO, he stands ready to re-

CHARLES DUDLEY WARNER, one Of
the gentlemen who compose the Har-
pers' party now making a tour Of the
South under the auspices of Mr.. John
II Iuman, of New York, is well known
throughout the country to persons oil
anything liKe literary taste or cultiva-
ton, and no man has been mora read
or admired than MIR. Warner, who, in
recent and carefully prepared article
in the Princeton RsuieIo, presented the
South to his readers in spirit of fair
ness and candor in marked contrast
with some papers that we recall in
other and more popular periodicals
written by Southern men. We are
glad TO see that this is being remem-
bered by thepeople of the cities visited
by the Harpers' party, and that Mr..
Warner has been the recipient not Of
special courtesies 10 distinguish him
from his confreres, as that would be in
bad taste, bat Of unmistakable and
quiet acknowledgements OF his sensible
and manly sta tement of our case as it
presented itself to him. With such an
earnest OF good will for the South Mr..
Warner may be relied upon 10 do Us
full justice in the narrative OF his
present tour.

lot, of Harvard, who, in a letter to
the former, carefully travesed the
events of the Harvard celebration, and
strongly disclaimed any intention Of
inHicling injury upon the feelings Of
DR.. McCosb. He assured the latter
that Everyone" condemned DR..
Holmes for his remarks. DR.. Holmes
did not represent Harvard sentiments,
DR.. McCosh was begged 10 believe.
On the face of the letter it was appar-
ent that DR.. Eliot was most anxious to
convince Dr.. Nc Gosh that it was all a
mistake, and that the proper thing TO
do was to shake hands and let by
cones be bygcnes. But this does not
satisfy the sturdy Scotch philosopher,
who reads in the poem of the "Auto-
crat of the Breakfast Table" a delib-
crate insult to the venerable college
which he represented on the interest
ing occasion. DR.. McCosh has acted
with becoming dignity in this matter,
and every man of right feeling must
applaud him.

THE CONVERSE TRIAL.
DIR, Mack, Witness for the Defense,
Gels His Foot Into IL.

lorhOtAL ~ Thk AFfkALst
LOUISVILLE, KY, November l8.-The
principal feature Of the Converse trial
for the past forty. eight hours has been
the examinatio on and cross exsmina
ton Of the Rev. DR.. ]. B. Mack, OF
South Carolina, the principal witness
for the defense. His deposition pro-
duced ONE severe reflections upon
DR.. Woodrow, with whom DR.. Mack
Is understood to have had contro-
versy and personal feeling. The cross
examination by Dr. Daniel has been
the topic OF comment and admiration.

nary troub es for years past, from
South Carolina to the Assem- bly, at
Vicksburg, from Vicksburg to Clarks.
vile, Tenn, and from synod to synod,
were proclaimed. He was taken by
the questioner, and required 10
tell what he had htard and
had done about DR.. Woodrow, and
evolution. The Doctors memory was
shown to be very vacilla'ing and de-
feciive from 1879 to 1884. He wac
about to cal the names OF no more
than four or five persons who had al
legged to him the evolution views OF
Prof. Woodrow as The ground for re-
fusing money to the seminary. The
d ctor was very severe in his COM
ments on the Woodrowit(s, but upon
the whole did not appear advantaged,
and it 10 believed both DIR. Mack and
the defendants are sorry that he came.
Many depo sitions for the defense
we're read, but nothing of special
weight for them.

coyed into a house by three roughs

credited in the Police Court this

frighted women whether the men
lived there. Being answered in the
affirmative he was asked to leave and
was put out. After reaching the street
he fred two shots at the building. 1t

The death of ex President Arthur,
at his home in New York city, yester.
day, removes a politician who was
purely an accident in the Presidential
chair. Nominated for that highest of
Offices, even by the still exulting and
dominating Republican party, Mr..
Arthur could not have been elected
to it in 1880. Indeed, the Republi.
can party would not have nominated
him under any conditions, as even as
the candidate for the Vice Presidency
on the Garfield ticket he was a weight
to carry. His place in his party be.
fore this honor was rendered him was
that Of political manager, the manip-
ulator Of "strikers," who did the dirty
work Of the party and made a living
by it. He was the center of an all
powerful faction Of this character in
New York city, that was for Re-
publicans the counterpart Of Tam
many at that time for Democrats.
he was not a speaker, nor had he
filled any Office other than thst Of
Collector OF the port Of New York,
which he held but for a short time.
Yet, as President he acted with credit,
paying especial attention to the social
duties that devolved upon him. He
had the habits, the polish and appear
ance OF gentleman, and while he did
nothing to discre dit himself did nothing
to signalizs himself as President. His
administration was without special
distinction, snd he passed easily out
Of the life Of the nation as he vacated
the chair Of state for Cleveland.
