WEDNESDAY. MARCH 16. 1892.

The 10th Legislature, that adjourn
ed last Friday, was the worst that has
ever sat in New Jersey. Other legisla-
lures may have been az corrupt, bu. this
showed an utter disregard Of public
opinion and public rights. II boldly de-
lied the constitution Of the state. and the
wishes Of the moral and religions people
Of the state. 1t debauched the judiciary
BY making Il utterly partisan; 1t turned
the benevolent boards into political ma
chimes; usurped the rights OF the people 10
the large cities to govern themselves, and
set over them q ring OF plunderers; II has
passed bill making 1t practicable to keep
open the infamous race tracks at Gutten-
burg and Gloucester 1t has relieved the
beer and whlskey saloons OF some of
their heaviest burdens; 1t has legislated
eat of Office men whose only offence was
that they were Republicans; 1t has fast
ened on the state number OF new officers
At large salaries, without necessity, and
Tor the sole purpose OF giving heelers
offices that otherwise could not be pro-
vided for; snd 1t has passed bill legal
izing the Reading Railroad combination,
by which combustion that company may
raise the price Of coal indefinitely to con
samers. These and many other outrages
on the rights Of the people have been
consammated by the reet Mt so-called Dem
scrasic legislature.
How much longer are the people OF
New Jersey going to submit to such out
rages9 1t has ceased to be question OF
politics, and Democrat and Republican
alike are concerned in preserving public
morality, the honor Of the judiciary, and
the rights OF the people. A cabal Of
Hudson county politicians, headed by
Governor Albeit, after having, as they
believe, bound the people hand and foot
by an Ubiquitous gerrymander of the leg
islative districts, have usurped the Judicial,
legislative and Political rights OF the peo-
pie. and are dividing the spoils for their
own benefit. No one who does not bow
the knee can have any preierment. No
Democrat who does not consent TO all this
rascality, can hope for recognition. This
10 not Democracy--it is Oligarchy.

reasonable price, generally finds that
there is room in the market for his

the test of time and proved their

There is a deal of sound sense in the
proverbs of a nation. Earl Russell de-
fined a proverb as being the wit of one
man and the wisdom of many, and the
aptness of this is well shown in the fol.
lowing from the Spanish, ''Since we
cannot get what welike, let us like what
We get" The thought is as old as the
race of mankind, but ages passed before
one man hit upon the happy expression
Of it. This saying, from the Chinese, is
a whole homily on pride in n sentence,
When a tree is blown down, it shows
that the branches are longer than the
roots"
For a concise expression of the lofty
aspirations of youth and the sober
achievements Of ripper years, take this
sentence from Henry d. Thoreau, 1.-The
youth gets together his materials to
build a bridge to the moon, or p~erchance
a palace or temple OF the earth, and at
length the middle aged man concludes
to build a woodshed with them. "-B. A

AS TO E A YEARS.

10 ine EullOT vi he LtAhti-
CHEYENNE, Jan. 5.-My recollection is
that it was recently stated In The LEADER
that 1892 would not be a leap year. Am
| right? INQUIRER.
Our correspondent is wrong. TIE mat
ter was brought up through a statement
made in one OF the state papers to the
effect that every year divisible by four
was a leap year. This error we cor
rected BY stating that although the year
1900 was divisible by four it was never
theless not a leap year. In years ter
minating centuries leap years occur only
once in every fourth century. The first
one known to history will be the year
20OO. To find a leap beginning a century
the year must be divisible by 400 instead
OF four as Is ordinarily the case.
The calendar of Julius Ce a., pro-
mulgsted about a half century before the
birth of Christ, first placed the ~calcula-
ton of time upon a sciepti6c basis. The
years were then divided into 365 days,
with a leap year every Tour years of 366
days. The length of the year was thus
assumed to be 1851 days when in reality
it was eleven minutes and ton seconds less
This apparently trifling error amounted to
ten full days in the year 1889 after
Christ and resulted in much confusion
particularly in the observance of feasts.
1t was Pope Gregory XIII who ar
ranged the calendar on Its present basis.
He ordained hat the ten days gained by
the J ulian calendar should be deducted
from the year 1882 and that what should
have been Oct, 3 under the
old calendar would be Oct. Is
under the new. This change was
subsequently everywhere adopted and
in order to prevent a recurrence of the
error in the future the year ending every
fourth century only, beginning in the
year 2OO0. is now recognized as a leap
wear. According to this mode of reckon
ing the difference between a civil and a
natural year will amount to only about one
day in 5000 wears.

The p~lan~hette was the popular craze
in the year 1887 in Japan. The instru-
ment used there consists of three pieces
of bamboo of a specified length tied in
the middle to form a tripod, over which
is inverted a shallow circular tray Of
lacquered ware about a foot in diane
ter. The legs are / foot 6 inches, Japan
ese, in length. All present put their
hands gently on the tray, and the cokuri,
as the object is called, or cokuri san, san
being honorifc, is politely asked to an
swer the proposed questions by raising
one leg for Eyes" and another for mo"
Or for "yes" by turning around, many
such devices being used. The operation
will be seen to be more closely allied to
table turning" than what we know az

"See here, how the papers changed"
and Mrs. Wilde got up and handed me
a scrapbook of clippings. Here is one
from one of our most conservative and
important dailies. 1t goes on to say of
me at the time of my reputed engage
ment to the Marquis de Leuville: Mrs.
Leslie was seated in her luxurious apart
ments at the Gerlach. She was dressed
in black silk with some rare lace about
her throat and wrists and looked even
younger than the London records had
made her out-thirty-eight.'
: THAT was in 1890. Now, in 1891, am
made out by this same paper, in an edi-
torial, to be old enough for Mr.. Wilde's
mother-about seventy"
