Chalmers saved it by his device. In fact, German writer has pointed out passage in the "Penny Cyclo- pedia" wherein it is said that MT. Hill stated that the idea did not originate with him.

The fattering welcome which he received from the exiled Academician did much to reassure and embolden him; but 1t cannot have been without considerable mis- giving that the joint author of ''La Belle Helene" knocked at Bishop Perraud's door. "I have only just had the pleasure of making your acquaintance, was the bishops answer, of which the applicant could not complain; ''M.

GOVERNOR HILLS LATEST,

Governor Hills bold bid for the favor of the rumssl1ers has made quite stir in New York. Women especially deplore the ac- tion of the governor, and heads of families, men who are rarely reused by any important public measure in the, legislature, condemn the veto with an earnestness of speech and au intelligence that show how deeply the question of restricting the saloon influence has taken hold of the community. It is probs ably true that the mass of the people have not been so thoroughly reused by the &C., tion of any governor on the liquor. question since Governor Seymour vetoed the Maine liquor law.
 report has been made to the New York senate in which Governor Hills action against the temperance sentiment is handled without gloves. The committee declares that it cannot avoid the conviction that in such official hostility to legislation, of this character, and such bold defiance of the will of the people on the part of the executive on this question, the governor has yielded, per haps unwillingly, to that powerful and con trolling influence in his own party which is unalterably opposed to any species of tem- perance legislation. And the report con- tinues: Only such predominancs of these dangerous and hostile influences in the Democratic party could have commanded and compelled the veto by the present execu- tive of the bills passed by Republican legis- Iatures to protect the attendants and occu- pants of the insane asylums ot the State from the influence of the sale of liquor in their immediate neighborhood, to prohibit the sale of liquor in the Capitol and other public buildings of the State, the bill known as the Crosby High License bill and the Vedder Liquor Tax bill. All these mes sures were demanded by Q majority of the people of the State of all political par ties, and the refusal of executive approval has been the cause of disappointment to many good citizens of all parties. The rec concentrations of an excise commission, coming. as they do, from an executive whose every official act has shown his complete subservience to the liquor interest, which directs the policy of the Democratic party in this State, may well be viewed with suspic- ion by the representatives of the people No revisory commission would be appointed by him, nor would any bill receive his approval whose labors would not be likely to result in the relaxation of the restraints which the people have been able to throw around this traffic by former legislative interference. On the contrary, it is more than probable that the motives which inspired this message were for larger liberty and license in the sale of all intoxicating liquors and the destruc- ton of the sacredness of the Sabbath by giv- ing the right to sell liquor on Sunday.
 This is pretty severe indictment, but il appears to be we'll deserved. Governor Hill is probably not much disturbed by it. for he has the rum interest with him, and although it will never make him president it may help him some

A young farmer near Americus, Georgia, redeem them, asked lawyer how he could prevent their confscation. He was told to marry and then his wife could homestead and save the animals. "Well," replied the young man, 1T will get married then if that is the only way out of it, but it seems to me that it is poor law that depriYes man of his liberty just to save two poor old mules.' A member of the Randolph Churchill club in England had been notified to attend meeting to answer a charge which would warrant his expulsion if not refuted. What the charge or who the accuser was the notice did not state. He replied that he would not appear until informed upon these points Thereupon the committee proceeded to expel | him in his absence. Justice Kay holds that
 such expulsion was illegal. "To give
 member of club" he said, "notice to at tend & meeting of the committee in order to
 hear charge made against him, and threat ening him with expulsion without first tell- | ing him what the charge was, was contrary
 to every notion of justice. It was a..gress mistake and a gross wrong."
