1tappears that President Harrison has
adopted the custom often followed at
foreign courts of having an officer in
uniform accompany him wherever he
goes as sort of modest pointer Of the
whereabouts Of his illustrious self. In
Russia, where some such designation Is
almost necessity, our ministers have Of
recent years adopted the practice to the
extent Of employing tall courier in
striking livery. In lands where uniforms
and gold lace are so common that no
one is startled or interested by them
there is nothing very Objectionable In
the practice, but in these United States
even officers Of the army and navy never
wear their uniforms in public excepting
on official business and on rare occasions
to lend brilliancy to great entertain
ments. President Harrison's innovation
is therefore In bad taste and an unjustifi-
able departure from republican sim
plicity. The man who fails 10 pick out
the president from crowd must be
strangely blind to the broadcast distribu-
ton of good and bad pictures of the chief
executive and the presence Of an officer
in full uniform is nothing but piece of
ostentation, reminding the heholder Of
the follies of ROYALTY.

The Killing OF Terry.

A justice of the supreme court Of the
United States went TO California i'm the
discharge Of his duty, though threatened
with death at the hands Of man of
desperate character. A deputy marshal
was provided to protect him, and to
guard In his person the dignity and in
tegrity of the nations supreme tribunal
The desperate assaulted the Judge, and
the officer promptly killed the assailant.
This Is the Terry tragedy In brief, and II
makes little difference whether the kill
ing was necessary for the protection Of
the life Of Judge Field. II is sufficient
that the deputy marshal had reason to
believe that his charge was In deadly
peril.
An assault upon supreme court jus
tice is an outrage of kind that will
claim little sympathy, no matter what
the provocation Of the assailant, and
when the attack is made by man 70
notorious for dangerous violence as Judge
Terry, the fatal penalty 80 swiftly In
tlicted seems very masterpiece of
Nemesis. Tho reported evidence, a., tho
the hotel proprietor, and tha finding of
weapon IN the satfhel which Mrs.
Terry SO hastilss brought from the car,
81" 'noicite that Terry would have been
u Neiy dangerous man il he had lived
lew minutes longer and the deputy
marshal did not know that he might
not In the next few seconds whip n pis-
tol from his hip pocket and create
vacancy In the United States supreme
bench. The Importance of averting such
catastrophe needs no comment Terry
was what duellists would have called n
fire-eater, q man of hot and reckless
temper, but capable of slaughtering a
fellow man as coolly, and with as little
emotion rs he would kill a rat. His duel
with Broderick proved this, and the SEN
sational scene at the Hill trial, when he
drew dagger, illustrated the unreason-
ing and almost insane excitability of his
nature. Such men are quite out of sym
pathy with the spirit of this age, and
need to be taught very forcibly that they
must control themselves, and cannot be
allowed to bring all men who thwart
them under the peril Of their bullying
instincts. II is gratifying TO note that
another deputy marshal is TO be de-
tailed 10 guard Judge Field, though
there can hardly be any more serious
danger.

Memory.


1t is O fine thing and most serviceable
to have a good, retentive memory. We
may style the memory that faculty
which is the store-house of the mind
the granary--into which all the corn
afterwards TO be ground is received, aud
where it is stored. 1t is to serve as
receptacle in which we preserve the
fruit of our observation. Without such
q reliable store-house we are only "pour-
ing water into a basket" Many per-
sons say 1t is all very well TO possess
an accurate, etentive, prompt, practical
memory, but that is just where / AIN
wanting" How often we hear persons
say 81 have such wretched MEM
Ory"; but more than half the time the
fault lies with the person himself. There
is nothing helps the memory more
than little training and discipline in
that direction not by learning tasks ;
but the memory may be greatly strength
ened by systematic arrangement for a
good memory Is not only strong, but a
memory properly arranged.
The memory of some men resembles
their offices, where you find a heap of
papers and books all tossed together, so
that when book or paper is wanted,
more time has to be spent in finding
1t than In reading it when it is found.
There are men whose memory is per-
feet chaos "a mass of anything aud every
thing, and nothing in its proper place.
But some men have memories like their
own well-ordered and perfectly ar
ranged desks, where each compartment
and each little drawer mas its own ap-
propriate contents, and letter on the
outside indicates what it eneloees. and
when they want TO find any document
which they have laid by, they look a,
the letter, open the drawer, and all is
ready 10 their hand. On the other hand
the memory must not be substituted fol
the reason. While exerting the one tn,
other may be smothered while storing
memory; thought, Judgment, under
standing may be starved. As in tn,
physical, so In the mental constitution
there must be digestion in order TO nour
ishment. That which a mans brain.

Tar right OF the Philadelphia n Read,
ing railroad company, under their charter.
10 build a terminal railroad in the city of
Philadelphia without the consent of the
city councils, will at last be passed upon
by the courts An injunction has been
asked for by the city, and the whole matter
will be investigated. The city alleges that
the railroad company has no right to con
struct railroad within the city under their
charter or under the law without the con-
sent of the councils. The Reading railroad
claims such right under certain additions
10 its original charter.
The parties interested have at last adopted
the only reasonable plan for having their
several rights adiudicated. However, con-
sdering the long delays OF the law and the
fact that the supreme court will have TO
pass on the matter, II will be "A year or two
before the work could 70 on. The courts
will have TO decide a number of things in
this proceeding of vital interest 10 the peo-
pie of Philadelphia. Questions of public
policy and justice to property owners will
be decided, besides the measure of the
right of condemning private property for
railroad use. The decision will in addition
fix the rights of the city in regard To the
use of its highways and streets whether
the peoples rights are paramount TO those
OF railroad companies, The contest will be
long and thorough one and the best legal
talent will be exerted.

II seems that not everything is lovely in
the life OF the blooming Young senator
from Pennsylvania. Notwithstanding the
victory he won Al the late Republican con-
yention, his yachting trip was not all
happiness In the first place the Hon,
Samuel Fesseuden for some reason or
other WAS walking about the deck of the
Manatee AT two o'clock in the morning
IA very unreasonable hour TO be astirl and
stepped down an open hatchway. He is
now recovering from broken hip at Cape
May. In the second place the story now
leaks out that one calm and peaceful night
when the party were not wandering about
the deck at two o'clock a, M, but were
sleeping good honest sleep in the luxur-
ious state rooms of the yacht, a mean and
contemplate inlet thief pulled out to the
vessel and coolly relieved the party Of their
valuable.
There is a difference of opinion as TO what
Is the inyentoredl loss of the lone ii fisherman
One story goes that lac had $40 in his vest
pocket, and another il to the effect that he
did not have dime. This latter story
is a slander. Al any rate the party we're
hlched OF their watches and spare cash
and in regard TO the unfortunate Penn
sylvania boss tine theft was sufficient tn
end his cruise and send him home 10
Beaver on his railroad pass. Our little
Napoleon may he shrewd enough to manip-

project, that which he tbinks out, which
he has investigated and proved, becomes
his own and constitutes his property,
not simply what he remembers. No
man can afford TO let his reflective pow
ers and capabilities rust, and nothip q
will SO much help TO make good, strong,
reliable memory as constant use Of
the powers of reflection and observation.

Isa column editorial the Philadelphia
Tymes strongly establishes the point made
by the INTELLroENcER month ago that the
constitution is imperative in its command
that "whenever vacancy shall occur in
either house the presiding officer thereof
shall issue writ Of election TO fill such
vacancy for the remainder Of the term"
The Times notes that the samc constitution
that gives the above command in plain
English provided for the election Of q
speaker, but Speaker Bower did not rush
of to the attorney general when he was
preside over the House.
at is the evident purpose of the constitu-
ton 10 have full Legislature always ready
for any emergency, and II therefore COM
mands, in the most positive terms, that
election writs shall be issued by the pro-
siding officers TO fill vacancies. 1t Is not
for Lieutenant Governor Davies or Speak er
Boyer 10 assume that a great common
wealth will have no need Of session Of
It's Legislature for sixteen months and,
therefore, the constitution may be dis
obeyed. II Is their plain duty 10 obey the
supreme law of the state, regardless of the
complications or orders of petty politi-
clans, and any citizen OF any OF the vacant
senatorial or representative districts could
obtain a mandamus to enforce the perform.
ance of the duty In any competent court.
"Speaker Boyer should promptly correct
the blunder into which he has been misled
and II he fails 10 do It, the citizens of the
vacant districts should promptly proceed Il
compel him and the lieutenant governor tc
issue the writs so plainly commanded by
the supreme law OF the commonwealth. ;
