sions continue cheap and plentiful. The
'plOughS" are fast taking the place of the

We regret to say that some of the roads
in the Island are in Il most deplorable con-
dition. In some places this is chiefly due
to continuous heavy loads, in the shape
of produce being taken to Town, pass
ing over them at the same time as the
repeated showers would tend to soften
them. The bad condition Of the roads Of
the City and of the Parish of st. Michael,
which have to do duty for the whole
Island, is said to be attributable to the
iuSutticiency Of funds in the hands Of the
Road Commissioners. If SO, this is a mat
ter which the Legislature must look into
without delay. But, we believe there is
no Parish in which the roads are Ill such
Il wretched condition us in the Parish OF
Christ Church, and in that Parish this bad
state of things is due chiefly, not to the
lack of funds, but to the neglect and
disregard of the Road Commissioners, adj
ded to the gross Incompetence OF Mr..

The Parlsians are proyerbialIy

tions have certainly rendered NJ.
Love, the Project of Police, the best
abused man in the metropolis. 1t
is asserted on his behalf that only a
few innocent members Of the canine
family have been sacrificed to the
precautions against rabies, and thai,
according to the statistics just issued,
the decrease in the epidemic was in
Simultaneous. In May NJ. Pasteur
had us many as sixty-seven PATIENTS
under treatment, whereas last month
their number diminished TO forty-six :;
but statistics may be made to prove
anything. NJ. Pasteur, however,
who has been battling successfully
with the epidemic, exhorts the Pre-
feet to persevere-to slay without
hesitation all the dogs supposed to
be affected with rabies, and to take
INTO custody all their wandering
brethren. Meanwhile NJ. LozG has
been treated by his fellow citizens to
the sObriquet of lie Canicide," and
it has been proved hat dogstealing
has been encouraged in order that
owners may be fined or rewards he

The Pest of CarorpiIIars.-Dr. Emil
Deckert writes from Berlin, June
II ;-'Perhaps your correspondents
about ibis yenr's pest of caterpillarS
will take an interest in the fact that
we ON the Continent have also been
subject this season TO the same
plague. The fine oak trees of our
well known Thicrgarten present,
indeed, a most mournful appear
ance, having been stripped of
their leaves by the caterpiIlnrs in a
%friShtfol way. The Geological Gar
den, IN the immediate neighbourhood
of the Thiergarten, which likewise
contains many oak trees, has been
comparatively free from the plague"

Notice Is hereby given that an alteration
er amendment to the rules and regulations
governing tho Democratic Organization in
Carbon county will be made at the next
Democratic County Convention, in accord
ance with Article 10th Of the Democratic
Rules adopted in 1870, go as to abolish the
present delegate system and substitute the
so-called Crawford county system. We
give this notice at this time because editor
Rauch Of the Mauch Chunk Democrat, in
last weeks issue makes the following time
ly and sensible suggestions bearing directly
upon this point:
"As IL is an admitted imposslblity 10
formulate conferee system that will fair
ly represent the number of voters In each
county without giving Northampton abso-
lutte power over all the rest why not cut the
matter short by adopting the Crawford
county system, to enable every Democrat
In the district to cast his ballot direct for
his favorite candidate. There would be
nelther conferee pocketing nor rotten bor-
eugh representation In that. It would be
be an open, fair and square submission of
the Congressional question direct To the
people, where by right 1t belongs"
The principle here set forth is just as
sound when applied to county offices. If
Aot, why not? BY REQUEST.

Special TO the CARBON ADVOCATE.
When the Rev. Doctor Talmage finished
his bitter and scathing sermon on spirit
ualism, every man, woman and child in the
congregation felt that 1t was the keynote
Of fight. The reverend doctor talks like
. fighter, he acts like fighter, he looks
like fighter, and he is a good fighter-at
leng range. He reminds me very much of
the Irishman who went out to fight duel
with a Frenchman. The Frenchman was
sick, so his second approached the Irish
mans second and said, my dear sir, my
principal Is so weak that he can hardly
stand would you have any objection If he
should lean against yonder milesLone?"

NOTES IN BIG POLITICS.

-Ffom the Boston Herald. That Mr..
ChRuncey M. Depew is preparing to be the
successor Of Mr.. Blaine is becoming more
evident constantly. Mr.. Depew omits no
opportunity to compliment the latter and
10 renew his allegiance to him as candi-
date. If this thing continues much furth-
or, 1t will 60 far to be believed that Mr..
Depew Is good deal of a politician.
While Mr.. Sherman and even Mr.. Allison
ere new apparently laboring for themselves.
Mr. Depew is proceeding upon the Scrip
tures-that he who losses himself shall
ind his profit in the end by the act.
From the Commercial Gazette. The
present probability is that William L.
Scott Of Pennsylvania WIN be made Char.
man Of the National Committee in place of
W. 81. Barnum, whose loyalty to Cleveland
b disputed. Scott Is the chosen confidant
and chief manager of the President for a
second term. Though never before recog-
niEed 40 political leader, he has suddenly
come to the front solely by Cleveland 8
favor. he now stands in closer confidence
With the President than all the Cabinet
combined.
--Fom the Boston Daily Aduertisey.
In circles friendly to Mr.. Blaine's nomina-
ton efor President we find that feeling
exists that before the Convention meets
no VIII, In unequlYocal terms, decline the
nomination. That is the general under
standing In this vicinity among the best In
formed Republicans.
Chairman Cooper will probably not
epen the Republican State headquarters
before the National Convention has been
held. The party organization is however,
In admirable condition, and the preliminary
work will not be neglected in the mean
time. Says Republican exchange.
--From the Albany Times Mfr. Clevs-
land has no residence in Buffalo, none
here In Albany, none anywhere in this or
any ether State, and consequently will
have no vote. even In the campaign where
u is proposed that he shall head the Demo
cratic ticket.
The Republican National Convention
will be held at Chicago. Illinois, June 10th,
1883, when candidates for President and
Vice President will be nominated.

Office Of the Mail and Express. Why, this
is attacking the liberty of the pressl Why,
even the Independent allowed reporters to
swear on MONDAY afternoons, and the
Christian Aduocdte any time after twelve
o'clock at night. In the Sun office swear
ing is allowed Mondays, Wednesdays and
Fridays, In the Tribune Office the rule is
mild forms of objurgation after MIR. White
law Reade has retired. In the World Office
the principal swearing is done by Pulitzer
in person, ably assisted by Colonel Cock
rill and Ballard Smith. In the Times office
profanity Is of mild type, and all the
other papers indulge more of less. What
is the world coming to when printer can't
swear a littleP Knock form Of the Mail
and Erpress into pi, and II Brother
Sheppard passes safely through we'll think
of 1t.
Truly yours,
