THE closing hours of the Senatorial
career of Senator Riddleberger of Vir-
GINA were neither pleasant or credit
able to him. Last Sunday night,
while the Senate was in session, he
took his place on the floor more
unruly than usual, and interrupted
the proceedings so disgracefully that
the presiding officer was obliged to
have him forcibly elected from the
chamber. He was carried out and
hauled home, and we reckon-and
hope-that this is the last public spec
tacle he will make of himself.

Til 1t matured, which was fully two weeks

that while out in a small boat with several
other young friends some distance from the
shore, whale came within few yards Ct
them, and as they were at the time quite
busy fishing, and not figuring on finding
that size of fish, they did not stop to take
Its dimensions, but remembered they were

THE topics for discussion at the National
Editorial Convention that is to assemble
in Detroit on the 9th inst. are of a char
acter indicating that a progressive and
thoughtful spirit will animate the body,
and prove that the attention of the edi-
torial fraternity is being more and more
given to the betterment of the methods.
and the elevation of the standard of the
profession. For instance, the discussion
on Libel Law Reform is to be opened
by a paper by E. II. Butler, of Buffalo.
We can anticipate that there will be
very interesting consideration of the ques-
tions relating to the liberty of the press,
and much debate as to the constitutional
provisions on that subject, and the basic
principles of liberation, and the aim and
purpose of free government. Fraudulent
advertising will open wide field of dis
cussion, and ought to result in agreements
that will estop great many swindles upon
newspapers. The Relation and Obliga-
ton of the Journal to its Party" will be a
subject to be opened for debate by W. S.
Cappallar, of Ohio. Probably the char
acter of the independent paper, and the
place of the "organ," will receive much
airing in that discussion. I" Editorial Phi
losophy" will be the title of paper by
Colonel Shepherd, of the New York Mail
and Express, and the discussion will in
volve the whole scheme of the editorial
conduct of newspaper, and will bring out
conflicting views upon the preparation of
the editorial, its method, dogmatism, rea-
soning, and to certain extent the whole
code of ethics of journalism. These are
but few of the topics that are to be con-
sidered, but they serve to show that the
meeting is not TO be merely meeting of
hale fellows well met, but of earnest and
broad-minded men, bent uponthe improve
ment of American journalism, and the pro-
erosion of the art of publishing and edit
ing opponents of public opinion.

BY THE SAD SEA WAVES,
What the Sacramento Colony is Doing
Pacific Grcve

What the Sacramento Colony is Doing at
Pacific Grove.
A correspondent of the RECORD UNION,
writing from Pacific Grove under date of the
14th inst, says:
Thinking that the Sacramento people
would be pleased to hear of the doings and
whereabouts of some of their fellow -citi-
zens, thought few lines from here would
be of interest, for do not believe there is
another place where there are SO many Sac
ramentans visiting at one time as at Pacific
Grove. One meets them, no matter what
direction they take, and at the beach every
morning they are numerous. Among the
number in the water l notice w. F. Peter
son and Charles F. Gardner, whose Apollo
like forms may be seen considerable dis
lance out from land. swimming or floating,
as the spirit moves them.
1.-The weather has been all one could wish
for-warm and pleasant during the day and
cool and delightful at night. There is some
little fog in the early morning, but none
during the day. Whales have begun to be
plentiful in the bay, driving all sorts of
fishes in to the shore, and making fishing
quite pleasing occupation, thus enabling
those who enter into that kind of sport to
tell the truth as to the number, size and
weight of fish caught, for there have been
some big catches lately.
in regard to whales, Frank Hickman says
