Egyptian dynasties ATTACKS the
Mosaic chronology in an unallow-
able manner" and forthwith pro-
ceeded to direct upon her an
elaborate sneer, of the variety
which in its physical manifesto
ton is possible only to individuals
of large ears and expansive cOum-
tenanCes.
We confess that we don't know
what the Mosaic chronology is.
There is no mention of any such
thing in the Bible, to which the
Mail and Express apparently re.
fers it. Archbishop Usher's chrO-
nOlogy is something of a mosaic,
it is true, besides being entirely
too short to fit the facts that have
been discovered since his time;
but we never heard it so deSlgnat-
ed before and see no reason for
spelling it with a large NJ now;
nevertheless, it is evidently the
one our esteemed contemporary
has in mind as having been at
tackled in an "unallowable man
ner.n For our part we fail to see
why Miss Edwards, with her eX-
tensive and intelligent researches
and her thorough familiarity with
Egyptian history, may not be
allowed to attack Usher's chrO-
nology Just as freely as the Mail
and Express attacked hers, or
why she may not turn upon her
critic Interpretation it applies to
her, that
A little learning is dangerous thing.
The absurdity of charging one
of the foremost Psychologists in
the world with having "a little
learning" on that subject will
make the application at once.
The fact is that while Miss Ed
wards does not claim intalllblIlty
for her computations of time in
Egyptian history, she speaks from
the knowledge gained by the latest
and most thorough researches,
and her authority is the best that
we have on the subject. The as
sertion of our contemporary that
the placing of the dynasties in
succession is ian Oft-cOrrected
mistake" is, like the CORE ctiOns
themselves, based simply on guess
work. Until the lost chronicles
of MonethO turn up, as possibly
they will some day IN some fresh
ly opened tomb, nobody cay say
whether the dynasties know to
have existed were successive or
cOntempOraneOus.
Miss Edwards knows more
about it than anybody else except
a few Of her fellow workmen, who
know as much as she does and no
more, and the world will probably
continue to allow her to agOnize
the Usher chronology despite the
protests of a writer who evidently
is no better acquainted with
EgyptOlOgy than he is with the
Bible Philadelphia Inquirer.

"IIuman nature? Well, | Just
guess there is no one who has a
better chance to Judge people
than we havc,' said a conductor
on a Fourteenth street car the
other day. II tell you, sir" he
continued, we see people as they
really are and as they pretend to
be. Just wait one moment he
said, as he rang the bell for an
elderly lady to get off.
"DO you see that woman" he
continued after the car had got to
going again. "Well, she has plenty
of money, but has a trick of get
ting on car and presenting $50
note asking you to please give as
many bills as possible. What is
the conductor to do! He can't
put her off. But she don't play
that trick on me any more"
as he punched a fare. II broke
her of that habit as far as my car
is cOnCerned.",,

at happened this way: She had
played me for a ride twice with
the $40 note racket. and thought
it was about time to turn the
tables. The next day loaded my
self with 2000 pennies-just the
the right change for that $40 bill.
She fooled me that day, however,
as | didn't haul her. But the next
day, just about Office time, she
hailed me, and presented that
regulation $50 bill. Look here,
madam said | this is the third
time you have offered me this bill
in payment for your fare, knowing
well enough that ! can't change

"Is that So!' she replied

there, that is only a sample of
what we have to deal with. There
is another woman who Oftentimes
rides ON my car and invariably
leaves her pocket book at home.
She declares it is too late to re-
turn home, and asks us poor
devils what's to be done. OF
course some gullible person comes
to her rescue and pays her fare.
She makes a great fuss and posi-
lively declines the ASST stance at
first, but accepts at last and takes
the generous PERSONS address,
declaring she will promptly return
the fare. But she fOrgets it the
same way she does the pocket
book. These are what we con-
ductOrs call the lady beats"
The car by this time had reach
ed the junction Of Fourteenth and
the avenue, and part of the con-
ductOr's audience left. The Star

was off again. After collecting

Individual Rights and the Public.
All restrictions upon the citizen
as a householder, which prevent
him from doing what, in his cor
rupt or ignorant nature, he might
list, are for the purpose of preserv-
ing the health, property, or secur-
ity of other citizens: and the right
of each citizen to compel others
to comply with these restrictions,
as, well as to perform the duties
they impose, constitutes a large
portion of the rights to which he
is entitled. Accordingly, we find
in the statutes another class of
provisions, for the purpose of pro-
tecting not merely the individual
house holders, against the careless
ignorant or reckless acts or OmiS-
siOns of the individuals, and which
give to public officers the right to
enter any building on the com.
plant of a citizen. or of their own
motion, in the interest of the pub
lie health or safety. We also find
certain further provisions which
limit the owners use of his own
house, with the same end in view.
These statutes relate first to the
Fire Department proper, second
to the Bureau of Buildings, and
third to the Health Department.

It is estimated by Treasury Depart ment officials famaliar with the poach- ing operations in Behiring Sea that fully 60, ,000 seals have been captured unlawfully this season. These seals are shot in the open ocean and not more than one in six shot is secured This would represent slaughter of 300, 900 seals which have been wanton- ly killed and whose skins have never been recovered. It is not thought that the seal industry can long with stand this slaughter, as the seals are killed indiscriminately, without regard to age sex or breeding season.

A bill is now awaiting the action of Congress which prohibits persons in the Territories from holding office or sit- ting on juries who car neither speak, read nor write the English language, The bill, should 1t become law, is rough on grammarless editors and min isters of the gospel, and will sadly per plex others Take for instance panel of twenty-four jurymen; how many of that number, think you, would, accord ing to the strict letter of the law, be accepted to well and truly try the case wherein Richard Roe is plaintiff and John Doe is defendant?

The BELT article of the 11th inst. regarding that much talked-of hospital bill has proved sedatiye upon dithy- rambic tongues of stump orators who, like inflated balloons, have a tendency, by reason of a superabundance of gas, to cleaye the ambient air and whose minds are of that etherial bent as to be always ill the clouds It has also had a quieting effect upon newspapers which rung the changes upon that bill with the view of downing an opponent. The subject is now distasteful to them since the BELT mirrored the damage they were doing their political friends and having chopped upon themselves they have ceased to lombard the authors of the hospital bill

Grants Secretary of War, Gen. " W. Belknap, who was recently inferred with the honors of war. had au uneu- yiable record. March, 1876, the House of Representative preferred articles of impeachment, the essential point of which was that he had sold post trader ships for large money consideration The committee were unanimous on the question of guilt and SO reported Secretary Belknap, knowing the result, hastened to President Grant and hand cd him his resignation, which he ac- eepted although he was then under going investigation, most serious charge; but notwithstanding the aeeep tance of his resignation, the House i'm peached him and after considerable delay his trial came on before the High Court of Impeachment. It was first delayed by the question of jurisdiction, he having resigned before the finGl act of impeachment was secured. 4 vote in favor of jurisdiction was, however, secured, and the vote in regard to guilt, though majority vote, was not sufficient for condemnation under the impeachment law. The vote was large ly influenced by She question cf iuris diction. No Senators expressed doubt of the guilt of the accused upon the charges preferred. Those voting guilty numbered 3J, not guilty, 9.
