A Literary Comp D'eiai.

OF all the surprises to which the reading
public has been treated by Mr.. Alden's sur
prising Literary ReUotuttOn, perhaps the most
remarkable is the last.
Two of the choicest and most famous
books in modern literature, WAsHTNGToN
IRvING's ''The Sketch Book" and "Knick-
erbocker's History Of New York." are just
published in style worthy of this most wide
ly celebrated and universally honored OF
American authors. The two books together
form ONE of the NINE volumes of his
works also just published. The type is large
loaded, beautiful the two volumes bound in
one comprise COG pages the binding is
HALF MOROCCO, marbled edges. The
only other edition in the market that at all
compares with this or rivals it, is advertised
by the publisher at $500 per volume.
Mr.. Alden's price when sold in sets of nine
Volumes is a little less than $1.00 per vol
nme. He now offers this single specimen
volume UNTIL SEPTEMBER /, 1886, for
the price (if itcan be called price) of 50
cents, by mail, postage paid,
This offer is WITHOUT RESTRICTION
| OR CONDITION; if there are hundred
thousand, or half million of those who take
pleasure in the works of WASHINGTON IRv-
ING, who want the volume, he says he will
fill their orders as fast aP his printers and
| binders can turn them out.
If you want to complete your set after you
have received this volums, you can, Of course
do SO by paying the additional price for the
set. THE OBJECT of this extraordinary
"Coup D Etat" is of course, advertising
except for this consideration the price woulc
be ridiculous and ruinous. Mr.. Alden sends
his complete Condensed Catalogue of stand
ard books free to any applicant, or his Illus
trated Catalogue, 1872 pages, for four cents.

Whence Help Might Come.

When perusing an article entitled "In Os-
man Digna's Garden in recent number Of
the Contemporary Reutew the following pas
sage was found "He" (Osmau Digna the
troublesome leader of the Suakin Arabs who
SO persistently harried Sir Garnet, now Lord
Wolseley) "once Save himself, then
wharf porter, and by and by trader, opu-
lent too, as measured by Suakin standards
of wealth, and looked up to by his fellow.
citizens and the tribes living out among the
hills beyond the town, as man of strong
purpose and great courage, with a loud
voice in council and cruel hand in action,
just the leader for such men as flung them
selves against the level bayonets of our (the
British) squares in the Soudan. He was
then a man of property, and outwardly,
therefore, for the time a man of peace"
In this curious connection, right in the
last clause there may possibly be found the
rendering of the riddle of the British trou-
bles in Ireland.
Give the Irish vested right in land make
them genuine land owners even if to the ex-
tent of the much ieered at ''cow patch, '"
there will then be some guarantee of order
and loyalty to the laws of the land.
Only last week one of the largest English
land Companies holding estates in Ireland.
the London Salters Company owning large
landed property in Londonderry and Magher-
afelt sold their property to their tenants,
The aggregate of the sale was 81, 200, 900, or
nineteen and half years purchase at the
net annual valuation, which is twenty to
twenty-five per cent below the present rents,
Such a record as the above should be most
consolatory to the well-wishers Of Ireland
and also should be of weight in directing
them towards the only genuine method OF
settling the present agarian troubles in Ire
land. That method is to make the peasantry
proprietors in some degree at least of I'll,
lands they till.
In the sale Of the Salters Company's lane
in the North Of Ireland the purchasers wer,
the tenants. These tenants being now land
ed proprietors must take sides with law an,
order, and aid by their influence in putin,
down agrarian agitation. The logical poin
is this that f these present proprietors ris
up against the laws of the land in open re
bellion they are liable to the punishment q
having their property confscated. The
cannot run away to America with it. A
they have strong interest they win max
the best citizens, they are compelled to it b,
the fact of their propretorship.
AS has been implied in tile commencement
of this article men of property are perforc
men of peace

A Princes AbdicatIon.

Prince Alexander of Bulgaria, the ruler of
one of the little principalties of Southeast
ern Europe is dethroned
The act was encompassed through the
connivance of his cabinet with Russian in
fuence. The cause OF it is explained in the
fact Of the personal dislike the Czm OF Rus

place too much a tool Of the English minis
ter, and secundarily as explained to Alexan

sufficient love for the Slay element iu his do

The people of Bulgaria have aims toward
the unificatiou Of the Slav race, which fact
readically explains their Russian predelic-
tions.
1t is understood that Germany and Austria
are in accord with Russia upon this move
ment and that France is only disappointed

among those empires, a status which is the
exact reverse of what she desires

A Ian dable EnterDrise

The recent establishment of the Whining
ton Commercial College in the Institute
Building, Eighth and Market streets makes
an important addition to the educational
faculties of Wilmington
We believe this is the only institution Of
its kind in Delaware, and its proprietor, (late
chief instructor in the Brayant & Stratton
College, Philadelphia), who comes highly
endorsed, should be encouraged in the en-
deaver to give Delaware its first fully equip
ped Commercial College
What our pc lple have had to 20 out Of
the State for is now brought to our doors.
The aim Of the College is to thoroughly
prepare young men and women for business

branches, including Book keeping, Penman-
shi. Correspondence and Calculations, and
through training in correct business meth

Houses.
These offices have actual correspondence
with similar schools in district cities.
While the method of teaching accounts by
actual transactions in the school room is now
here, it has been successfully practiced f,i
thirty years in the larger cities.
1t is the correct method. A little practice
is worth much theory
MIR. Goidey, the proprietor, has called t,
his aid such gentlemen as Prof. ]. jackson
Pierce, instructor in penmanship, Henry c
Conrad, Esq lecturer on Commercial Law
Prof VIM. A. Reynolds, lecturer on Practi

The education that this institution give

Important to Apple Exporters.

Messrs. j. W. Draper & Son, of Coyent
Garden, London, England, importers of
American apples, have sent the following
open letter to American journals.
All fruit shippers should give tstrict heed
as its matter is most timely and important,
The letter is dated August 8th. It is
rather lengthy and therefore cannot be given
in extenso.
Messrs. Draper say This year may be
regarded as the commencement of a new era
in the import trade. The exhibitions that
now take place annually in London have
done much to foster competition between tLis
country and America, but the latest. and
perhaps the most successful, Of the series

What A Mnihar ShnuId Nn.

1t is a part of the average mothers creed
that her child can do no wrong. If sle
doesn't acknowledge it, she feels it and acts
upon it and is lulled into false security by it,
until her children have very likely acquired
evil habits of which she little dreams and
which will course them for lifetime. The
common school is good thing, but children
do not imbibe unmixed blessedness there
from. They are quite liable to meet other
children from families of lax morals or none
at all, who will teach them bad words aud
impure thoughts and actions by which they
will be greatly harmed, albeit secretly, un
less the wise mother forestalls any such
danger by plain and unequivocal teaching
both moral and physiological. How much
better for a girl or boy to learn the truth
from the pure lips of mother and from
foul-mo thed and ignorant companions, in
whose obscene conversation are blended
about ten grains OF error to one of truth.
And in the matter Of drinking and smok.
ing, does not a boy always learn before his
mother knows it? If every mother would
study physiology little, learn just what eff
feet alcohol and nicotine have on the human
system, especially the stomach and the brain
and teach the same to her boys, it is alto
gether probable that few of them, com
paratyely, would ever willingly take such
enemies into their mouths. And girls should
be taught the same that they may in turn
teach their children and set good example
in society. Good books on alcohol and
tobacco are easily obtainabe if you don't
know of one ask your minister or physician
what to get. ..-
