oped in Ireland. This time the female por-

TEE SentinePs allusion, last Sunday, to
some amusing typographical blunders has
suggested to an old city editor some funny
blunders that were not made by the types.
Reporters are as sharp as "they make EN-
usually, but sometimes they get 'snipped''
in a way they despise." As for instance, a
Cincinnati reporter heard an orator one night
quote Latin proverb, "Msguus est Cesar
sed major veritas" that is: Caesar is great,
but truth is greater" His Latin was rusty
and he probably wearied with much, If not
well, doing, and he reported the utterance,
magnus est Cesar, said Major yeritas. A
New York reporter heard the French seati-

The Sentinel and the Farm Guide for I.a5
A QUESTION OF IFS.

General Sherman's garrulity has been an
infinite cause of trouble to him, and his
statement to Frye, afterwards forgotten, is
only one OF hundred instances of it. Gen
eral Sherman fercely denied having ever
told General Frye that Grants career would
have ended at Donaldson had General C. f.
Smith lived. We can see no reason that
General Sherman should not have made such
a remark, nor why he should be ashamed of
it. The successful ending of the war did not
depend upon any single man. As soon as
Congress, the PRESIDENT and the Cabinet
stopped interfering with the Generals and
the movements OF the army, the army sue
ceeded as its oTerpowering strength admitted
that it should. We had plenty of good Gen.
erals-Sherman, Thomas, Sheridan and
hundred others who could have ended the
war. 1t was not Napoleonic genius that de-
feated the South. but sturdy fighting and
superior numbers and resources. No one of
our Generals took the field with a half
starved army, and totally annihilated three
separate armies, each of them nearly thrice
as great as the attacking army, as Napoleon
did. Perhaps such tactics were totally i'm
possible owing to the generalship and organ
ization Of the enemy and the difficult nature
of the country to an attacking force. One
might just as easily speculate what would
have been the condition of the world to-day
had Eve not eaten the apple. Speculation in
IFS is perfectly useless but it is also perfectly
harmless. General Sherman's error was the
challepgeIta Gsuersl Frye IN which the

The Hanging OF Women,

Governor Hill, of New York, resptes a
murderess until the end of February, to
give the legislature an opportunity to say
whether women shall be hanged. No
woman has been executed In New York
for SO long that the governor feels as
though there was something like an un-
written law against it but he wants it TO
be written, If he is to honor 1t.
We are convinced that women should
not be hanged nor men either, as abund-
antly as they have come TO be. We have
too many executions. They are too CON-
mon TO be longer impressive. If killing is
to work as a preventive of killing, it must
come before the people so seldom as to
have the utmost effect of dreadful impress
siveness
There is no need to hang 50 many men
Their guilt is of so many different degrees
that 1t would be easy to select for the ex-
treme penalty the criminal of the deepest
dye. Comparatively few murders are
wholly deliberate and premeditated. There
is no logical reason why a womans crime,
committed without mans influence upon
her, should be deemed of less degree than a
mans; and it is not. But woman s
hanging is more revolving to the manly
sense than mans 5, and should be avoided.
Letius have no women hanging. and less
men hanging and hanging will have a
better effect.

Christmas.

& The bothersome part of the Christmas
season Is over; the hurry and worry,
thought and care, that the elders have had
has given place to quiet anticipation of the
pleasures to follow, or the pleasant prepa-
ration FOR them that make up Christmas
eve. A receipt for a merry Christmas,
like directions for securing anything else
worth having, is troublesome to compound,
and the degree of happiness depends large
ly upon the amount of trouble taken it
calls for careful forethought for others
that gifts TO them may be fit tokens of
good will. If charity is the incentive to
the gift and you are sure that some one
would have had more gloomy Christmas
but for you, 1t must follow as certainly as
effect can follow cause, that your own
Christmas will be much happier.
A kind providence has 50 ordered things
that happiness is within the reach Of all
who will make an effort worthy of it, and
the stimulus towards this effort is greater
1T this season than any other, so that hap
piness is most general. If the houses of
the poorest could be visited on Christmas
day by some one wearing the invisible
cloak Of the fairy tales, happiness would
be found there probably of more genuine
sort than in many wealthier homes. The
man who eats half a Christmas dinner and
gets up hungry, but with good will to all
the world and a clear conscience, is a hap.
pier man by far than any epicure who
gorges boned turkey, drinks deep to merry
Christmas and goes gloomily to bed to rest
less sleep.
