THE PRESIDENT ANGRY.

III should not surprise any one that the
PRESIDENT grows angry over the " lies OF
the newspapers of the day." The dis
patches say that he is very wroth at the con-
slant instances presented to his observation
of character assaulted and regulations as
sailed by the press on the flimsiest pre-
lenses, and letter is given from him in
which he scores the press numerically.
Let us be entirely honest with ourselves.
Is it not true that the news avenues of the
day are crowded constantly with stories.
suspicious, innuendos and conjectures of the
most damaging kind concerning public
men, which have not sufficient basis of
verify to warrant their reception in the
trial of dog case before a cross roads .Jus-
tice? The New York Sun thinks that the
President in his anger has said more than
he intended, when he declared that there
never was time when newspaper living
was so general or so mean as at present. and
that there never was a country where it
fourished as it does in this. This is strong

he was led to trust himself in applying the
same to man. Wecan readily imagine the
emotions that must have stirred his soul
when he resolved upon these experiments.
Selfishness and cowardice would have STAYED
him, but devotion to the cause of humanity
spurred him on, and thus it was again tes-
titled that there is heroism in the walks of
science rising to the level of the bravest
achievements in the field.
In July boy was brought for treatment
An autopsy demonstrated that the dog
that had bitten him was mad. The lad
was so badly wounded that the medical
faculty decided death from hydrophobia
would certainly ensue. The boy was Bit
ten July 4th; on the 9th Pasteur, with
Drs. Vulpian and Grancher inoculated
the patient with virus fourteen DAYS old.
Each day once, some days twice, the boy
was treated for ten days with diminishing
virus, until the 10th he received the most
virulent matter-only one day old. 1t was
found by experiments on rabbits that the
virus used the first five days, was not viru-
lent. The boy escaped rabies and his
health remains excellent. October 18th
Jean Baptiste Jupille, shepherd boy,
threw himself before mad dog to
protect group of six children. He
throttled the animal and beat him
to death with the heel of his shoe. He
was fearfully wounded. October Doth he
was brought to Pasteur, who treated him.
He recovered, as did four others treated
subsequently. The physicians decided
that the virus in Jupille's wounds
had not on the sixth day left the locality
and assembled toward the brain.
Pasteur's explanation of the philosophy
of his great discovery is, that the virus
acts slowly; that incubation makes the
body refractory to it, and thus the poison
of the wound remains localized and after
some months is digested and thrown off
because it is prevented from reaching the
brain. The preventive quality of the in
oculation exists for year and a
half and as the minimum of to-
tai incubation with the virus from
the wound is thirty days, the whole
question, explains Pasteur to reporter of
the London Times, consists in inoculating
the patient soon enough to prevent the
propagation of the virus through the
wound from spreading.
Well might NJ. Vulpian exclaim before
the Academy with proud enthusiasm, that
Pasteur's discovery affixes the seal to the
glory of our illustrious associate, and
sheds an Incompatible luster upon our
dear country"

REVELATIONS OF GEORGE ELIOT.

One rises from the completed reading of
the life, letters and journals of George
Eliot-now before the American public for
| about year-with the conviction that
only by such insight into the motives and
inner life of great literary men and women
can perfect estimate of their mental
depth be formed. The impression is GER
tainly made upon our mind, so forcibly as
not to be easily removed, that in the case
OF Mrs. Gross no full measure of her intel
lect can be taken until the pages written
not for the public eye, have been read.
Here the curtain is withdrawn from the
soul in its unguarded moments and we
look in upon its self-communings and Law
bare the introspection which she SO con-
stantly practiced. Her letters and journals
are self-criticisms, and enable us better
than by any other study of her writings to
understand what she meant when she de-
clared that for such truth as was in her the
world should not go athirst These Jour
nails are the self-defenses of the creator of
George Eliots wisdom and marvellous
beauty of thought, and thus become reye-
lations gemmed with aphoristic briiliancy
not surpassed by any one, or all of her
studied works, sent out to the world
armed against its assaults and in
wiling its sympathetic embraces. We
understand more clearly from these post
norton testimonies the motive forces
of the life that turned "past
dependency to present hopefulness."
The fullness of her meaning that
all indulgence of sadness that has the
slightest tincture of discomfort is grave

exposition of the courage of soul that
could face a world justified in condemna-
ton, and in defense cry out, | am working
hard to provide for others better than

alton of this character, that can be given

language, to be sure, but that there is some
thing of truth in it will scarcely be denied
by honest journals In the columns de-
voted to expressions of opinion and the
discussion of public topics we believe there
is, with here and there an exception, as
high standard of truth and fair dealing
as in other vocations. The editorial column,
as rule, is upon high moral plane Cen
orally, the known reporters of the country
make their columns reflect the truth as
closely as it is possible to get at it,
and there is no class of workers in
all the length and breadth of the
land who are more ready to right error,
correct wrong, or to do even-handed
justice. Their very success depends upon
it. Their views of men incline them to
be charitable and kindly. Their expert
ence teaches them the liability of man to
err, and the grieyous wrong of misrepre-
sentation. But when we go outside these
two departments of the daily paper and
come to the confidential Washington cor
respondent" the unknown news-gatherers
in ten thousand places in the land, the po-
litical pensioners here and there who carry
news TO the general mill that grinds it out
for telegraphic transmission when we
come, in short, to the dispatches that in
dulge IN scandals, and rumors, and hints,
and conjectures, and it is saids," we con-
fess that there is reached plane where
there Is any amount Of wrong doing, Chi
chane, misrepresentation and lying. The
man is careless reader who perllses the
daily news dispatches and does not arrive
at this conclusion. In a degree. the edi-
torial columns of number of papers de-
voted to the interests of particular schemes,
and the advancement or destruction OF
personal ambitions, do seize upon these
news dispatches as excuses for indulpine
in mendacious statements, innuendoes. and
conclusions. A few do originate lies in
their columns of expression, and make
them vehicles for assault upon character
without that knowledge of guilt in the
party charged that should form the basis
for all accusation. But these are the ex-
ceptions. The press of the country can
afford to face the music, and give its at
tention to the need for reform in its own
ranks. 1t is as true to-day, as at any time
in the past when Holland never tired o.
enunciating it. that in the endeavor of the
papers to Guido each other in the So
called spirit of enterprise" there is not
only confusion of values as to what Is
news, but disregard of the responsible
ties of high-minded journalism in the
matter of news publishing

ing naval station at the Carolnes and ar.

SOFIA, Dec. 2.-The deputation of Bull
garian notables instructed by the govern
ment to visit the different powers and per-
sOnaly place before them the facts of the
Bulgarian situation, has started on it's tour
1t is reported that the deputation has been
instructed to demard that the powers shall
either consent to have Prince Waldemar,
of Denmark, elected to the Bulgarian
throne, or else permit the return of Prince
Alexander. The new plot formulated at
Bucharest on Nov. 80. by the Russian
refuf ,es from Bulgaria, headed by NJ. Zan-
koff, and having for its avowed object the
overthrow of the Bulgarian regency and
the fomenting of revolution. has proved
abortive. Russia refused to furnish money
for the enterprise.
