Men often make pretense of enjoying them
selves when they don't, but the thinnest and
most transparent of all is when they crowd
into a smoking car to enjoy % q smoke. We
doubt about any man, however accustomed
he may DO to the fumes of tobacco, deriving
pleasure from pulling ate cigar in a crowded
car In which the smoke is so thick that over
coats are superluous on a cold day, but what
shall we say OF men to whom tobacco is al
most a stranger ordinarily, who strike for
the smoking car as soon as they board q
train, and puff away at poor cigars until all
is bluel And they pretend that they like it,
too. They wink and blink at each other
through the dense haze, which almost
strangles them, and cough like the con-
sumptive ward of u hospital. Nevertheless,
they smoke their cigars down very low. as il
resolved not to lose one iota of enjoyment,
and when one is gone they immediately light
another. When they emerge they look as il
they had been sleeping in n sTnokehousc. Oh,
you masculine railers ut the foll.es of women,
all her sacrifices at che shrine Of fashion are
the dictates of wisdom compared 70 your alb
surd pretense Of enjoyment IN 0 smoking
car.-Texas Siftings.

By what right does an editor destroy a con-
which be will neither

property or mott We think It Is property,
and not only believe that tho courts would so
decide, but that the next legislature will
make 1t a criminal ofRense to destroy manu-
script submitted punishable by fine or i'm
p~risonment. The time has come for news
paper men and authors to go to the fountain
head OF law and secure the passage of such
statutes as will afford them equal protection
with the publishers. The contributor is now
regarded as a mere machine to be used or not
according as these lordly autocrats of the
press desire. The editor and the publisher
seem to go on the idea that because they re-
ceive a large amount of manuscript they are
not bound to care for it, whereas that very
fact gives them the widest range or selection
and enables them to produce the very best
species Of periodical.
Writers are naturally afraid to object to
the high handed destruction of their manu-
script, fearing to give offense to the editor
and deprive themselves Of a chance for fu-
ture publication. Few of them keep copies
Of their work, n it requires greater exer-
tion to reproduce it than did the first writing.
1t requires the same amount Of mechanical
execution to make copies as it does to make
the originals. 1t is now proposed to secure
the passage Of q law requiring editors and
publishers to hold unavailable manuscript
thirty days before destruction, in order to
allow the author to send stamps for it or call
in person.-The Journalist.

Trial of White and Cross set for
Thursday-Other Notes of In-
tarast

terest.
RALEIGH, Sept. 25.-Yesterday at
IL o'clock a. m. the Superior curt
for the trial of criminal causes. met
with his Honor Judge Avery presid-
ing, and Col. T. M. Argo IN deck rs
Solicitor. There is not u very large
docket of causes, and mostly minor of.
fenses, except the cases against White
and Gross. which ale set for Thurs.
day. 1t is unders; ood that both
sides are ready for trial, and the case
will move off at once when called.
The defendants are represented by II
very able array of counsel, with that
Prince of criminal lawyers, Col. I
g. Fuller at their head. ! think that
Col. Argo has no assistant, but he is
a very able criminal lawyer, has pre-.
pared the case very thoroughly, and
IN the battle ofl, gal giants will make
them feel that every inch of ground
will be hotly and stubbornly confess

the result; however, it is an outland-
ish maxim of the law never to bet on
an election, what ugly man the pref
tiest girl in town will marry. nor
what verdict petit jury will find
so ! will not violate the maxim by exs
pressing any opinion rs to the result
of the trial.
There seems to be consid rable dis
appointment as TO assets of the bank.
l think it is now pretty generally
conceded that 40 per c''nt. will be
about as much as can b. expected
from the dividends of the receiver OF
the bank.
The conduct of Mr.. Trenholm, the
Comptroller Of the currency, is pretty
freely ciiti ised. for allowing a dead.
fall tc 60 on, and entrap unwary de-
positors. A lepositor who hsd sl5,
10000 in the bank told me that he
did not blame White and Cross; that
they never deceived him at all-that
he blames the Comptroller Of the
currency Of the United States govern
ment; that he deposited his mon,y
under the implied recommendation
of the government that the bank was
safe.
The mission of Drummond here
was ostensibly TO examine into all
the alleged crookedness Of the bank;
but his operations we're merely q
whitewashing to cover the official
negligence--to use nnplainer term
Of high officials. Mr.. White certainly
told Mr.. Drummond that he would
cheerfully aid him in his lhyestiga>
tions Cfthe books of the bank. DO
not state this on the authority of
White. for / have not seen him, but
upon the authority Of one of his
counsel, and there is no mistake
about IL. Yet, Mr.. Drummond made
a stay Of only two days, 10 which TO
do a weeks work. The negligence,
10 use no hsrsher term, extends back
, Of Mr.. TrenhoIm's official tenure.
and censure is justly due Mr.. Jay,
his predecessor, IN that Office.
