ESPECIAL TO THE SENTINEL

LONDON, June 21.-A deputation OF
Ulster Protestants, consisting of clergy
men, magistrates and merchants, who are
in favor of Home Rule, is coming to Lon
don TO address several meetings under the
auspices of the British Home Rule Associa-
ton.
Parliament will be prorogued on Friday,
and the dissolution will take place on Sat-
urday.
The Times publishes what it says
is a copy of the private special cir
cular recently sent by the President OF
the Supreme Council to different centers
of the Irish Republican Brotherhood
throughout the Kingdom Of Great Britain
and Ireland. The document fills q column
of the Times in fine print. The gist of it
lies in the claim that to the efforts OF Fe-
mans Ireland is indebted for the present
advantageous position occupied by the
Irish cause, and that while Gladstone's
scheme is inadequate because Ireland
must have nothing short Of independence,
it is the duty of Irishmen to support the
Premier in every way, in order to complete
the step he wishes to take. The Times
SAYS the document is marked $40 be de-
stroyed when read"

MIR. CHILDs' CANDIDACY.

Mr.. Childs has at last taken notice Of
the mention of his name in connection
with the Office of President of the United
States, and he notices it editorially in his
paper, the Philadelphia Ledger, Qnde.
dependency to say that he cannot per.
nit himself to be considered as a candi-
date. The Baltimore News (Democratic)
first suggested Mr.. Childs as a Presi-
Dental candidate, and asserted that he
could be elected Chief Magistrate if he
would. The Philadelphia Times Qnde-
pendent) and other journals have since
spoken very favorably Of the suggestion,
and Mr.. Childs has received many let.
tiers urging him to consider the matter
seriously. He says that these express
sions exhibit a strength of personal re.
gard, fof which he is at loss to make
adequate acknowledgement, and as such
he prizes them very highly, "but in so
far as they suggest that he should be
nominated for President of the United
States, that is another sort of matter
still gratifying as a token of warm good
will, but at the same time looking to an
impossibility." Mr.. Childs says he does
not wish to be considered as declining an
offer not yet made, but he thinks it nec-
essary in this particular instance, that
not even his silence should be permitted
to give encouragement to a proposal to
make him a nominee for President. Mr..
Childs has an immense number of friends
who would like to see him made Presi-
dent, and there is no doubt but that he
would make an excellent Executive, but
this statement from him should put a
stop to gossip about his candidacy. Any
how, it is too early yet to begin the next
Presidential campaign. Let the country
have a little rest.

Officials to whom are delegated the
duty of letting contracts for public
work, are frequently subjected to adverse
criticism because they do not give the
award to the "lowest responsible bid.
der" in accordance with the ordinary
advertisements for proposals. In a case
lately decided by the Supreme Court OF
Pennsylvania, Justice Mercur submitted
an opinion in which the ground was
taken that the word responsible is
not confined merely to pecuniary ability,
but extends to judgment and skill; that,
therefore. officials empowered to let con-
tracts have the right to exercise their
deliberation and discretion; and that
while the courts of jurisdiction may in.
quire into their action in awarding con.
tracts, and may issue %mandamus COM
polling such officials to proceed with the
performance of that duty, there is no
power in such court to control their dis.
c~retion.

RUSSIA, FRANCE, AND GER.
ANY

Speaking of the attitude of Russia in
the event of a war between France and
Germany, the Novoje Vrjemia of st.
Petersburg says: "There is no doubt
that, in any case, it would not be proper
for us to lend our support to either one
of the belligerent powers to the detri-
ment of any one of them. But at the
same time it would be a mistake to i'm
agine that Russia would necessarily re-
main neutral in case one of the two
powers interested should attempt to
weaken the other. Such an Indifference
upon her part would be a gross political
error. The intervention of Prince Gort-
chakof, in 1875, in the Franco-G German
difficulty-an Intervention which made
Germany give up her intention to finally
crush France-will always be counted as
one of the most important services that
the Chancellor rendered to Russia. The
same considerations which governed him
then ought to guide US to-day. But these
considerations ought not in any manner
to hinder the consolidation of the most
friendly relations with Germany, be-
cause such relations respond on all points
at present to the interests of Russia.
Moreover, from a Government point of
view, Germany is more closely allied to
Russia than Republican France is. On
the other hand, it must not be forgotten
that the sympathies of the Russian peo-
pie are rather for France than for Ger
many, and that, in a normal development
of policy, our interests might not be in
disaccord with those of France. 1t is,
therefore, natural that that country
should be of great Importance to us
as a political factor. Germany repre-.
sents for us the present; France the flu.
ture; and, since we need both the pres.
ent and the future, it would not be for
our interest that one of these factors
should absorb or weaken the other"

New Jersey has an earthquake theory
that is all her own. 1t is that the earth
auakes which visit that State are caused
by the slipping of stratiied rocks upon
other rocks, which is due to the expan.
sion and contraction of the earth's crust.
Such a comfortable theory, in which the
element of fire and molten matter is en-
tirely omitted, is of especial value in
the neighborhood Of Long Branch, Coney
Island, Manhattan Beach and other
similar places; but it may also be ac-
cepted here, though for perhaps other

A Washington correspondent says /
"Wewha, the Zuni priestess, who APP
peared in the Indian dance in the
Kirmes, has shown herself since most
excellent mimic and in private has given
her friends most excellent caricatures of
the bows and curtSieS of the minnet and
the motions of the Japanese dance. She
has regarded the very frequent rains
which began in Washington the day
after she first took part in the Kirmes,
and which fell nearly every day for
week afterward, as a special mark of
approval of her gods of her course in
yielding to the persuasion of her Wash
lngton friends and appearing in the In
dian dance. Wewha is a priestess SINH
lar to the Vestal virgins of Rome and
DruidS of Britain, for Zuni maid who
has taken the vows. she has taken never
marrles.

perfect flower, it will shatter and be gone
before your eyes. 1t is considered a
happy omen to be able to catch this
'rara avis on the wing as it were.
Among birds, the crested Grebe.
whose head reflects the rays of light and
Cutters with glory that passes descrip-
ton, has been supposed to possess sanity
attributes. This comes, perhaps, from
the extraordinary aspect the head pre-
SCENTS, being surmounted as it were by
nlmbus or aureole such as that with
which painters adorn sanity characters.
Some have been mystifed that this bird
did not always show its aureole, but it is
we'll known to naturaliSts that it is only
during the nesting season this beautiful
and peculiar growth takes place. ~
Apopular fancy with youths and maid
ems is connected with the little yellow
vine, "Thread of Gold, or more COM
monty known as 'fove-vine. 1t origi-
nally springs from root and clings for
support to the nearest objects, covering
them with golden network, but when
broken off and cast aside it will, under
certain circumstances, grow luxuriantIy.
1t is considered token of reciprocated
love to the one by whom it is broken if
it grow and thrive.
Similar to this is the sentiment ex-
pressed by the myth connected with the
mullen plant. The yellow plume of this
plant, upon being broken and left hang
ing by thread from the parent stem,
will sometimes grow again, and, with a
crooked effort, strive to face the sun. 1t
is regarded as propitious sign to lovers
who break the MULLEN if it grow and
bloom, especially indicating fidelity. AS
the plant rarely fails to grow, it is easy
to understand the popularity of the senti-
ment expressed.
The fairy's slipper so delicately poised
that it has given rise to the myth that it
was always dancing, and, through the
difficulty Of understanding its methods

been left by some of the fairy folk.
Many things could be mentioned which
would be of interest cleaned from this
atmosphere of myth and romance. As
they are usually connected with the
simple things of our forests and fields, to
all lovers Of nature they are redolent of

from a blending of the ideality of the

aIjsts have come many of the we'll
known myths peculiar to the South.
These myths are but the outgrowth of
the innumerable secrets attending the
phenomena of nature. They have origi-

through observation, have been led to
known something of the mystical changes
at work in the great world, and whose
poetic natures have felt a throb of SYM

FOR THE LEGISLATURES.

The near approach of the Septem-
Der election, makes the subject of
candidates of Importance. While
many things go to make the quail
ties necessary in an efficient and
worthy officer in any capacity, in
tegnty ought always to be made
the chief thing. No man whose in
tegrity is such that there is question
about it, should be intrusted with
public affairs, and the people ought
to be so strenuous in this regard
that the unworthy dare not get
where the wheels of public disap-
probation can crush them. Ability
is something. The man who by
experience is trained for a duty,
is able under ordinary circumstances
to do vastly more in any sphere
than an inexperienced man, hence,
the custom that prevailed previous
to the biennial meeting of the legis-
lature, of giving a man two or more
terms in the legislature fitted men
up better for the work of legislation,
than the present which shelves a
man when he is granted single
term. In the nature of the case the
custom of granting two terms, will
not return under the biennial sys-
TEN. There is great difference in
men in the influence they are able to
exert on other men; some are, at
most only vote, while others by
standing or personal influence carry
many with them. The influence of
men in legislative bodies depends
not so much on the brilliancy Of
speaking talents, as upon their
standing for fairness and good
judgement.
In the preliminary matters per-
tanning to the selection of candi-
dates, it is too often the case that
leading aSpirants are neither the per-
sons desired, or the persons most fit
for the place, and the voters are
compelled to slaughter them, or to
be themselves unity represented.
If the caucus system prevails, the
citizens of the community should
remember that the caucus meeting
is often, If not always, the most
important meeting. 1t is not agree.
able in any event to bolt caucus
nominee, and when the caucus is
fairly managed it is not right to &c
back on its nominee.
There are always important mat.
tiers that require good men in the
legislature, but there are measures
this year, as 1t seems to rs, of un
usual import. Among these may
be mentioned temperance legisla
ton, the subject of railroad com
missioner, the Sunday railroad trail
matter, some changes in the grant
list laws, and the election of Uni
ted States Senator. The senatorial
matter is one that interests every
body, and one that ought to be set
tied by the people, only to be rat
fled in the Legislature, when tina
body shall pass on the question.
The desire on the part of TIL
friends of a candidate other thai
Mr. Edmunds to see the worth,
senator defeated is leading them t
make strenuous efforts to cause th,
election OF anti Edmunds men, her,
and there, in the hope that some
thing may turn up hereafter to thei
advantage. 1t is not necessary t,
tell all that is being done to brin;
this end, but the citizens of thi
part of the state who believe tina
the good of the state and their owl
good demands the return of Senate
Edmunds, will do we'll to look afte
the matter in every town.-Bartol
