ONE OF the astounding surprises OF
the late election came to the partisan
advocates OF a secret ballot law in re-
publican Legislatures. Many of these
ignorant statesmen affected to believe
that the Australian system, universally

of the republican party. On the other
hand, the results in Now York, Michi-
gan, Ohio, Illinois, Wisconsin, ct al,
lead us TO believe that n good secret bal

prominent republicans after every ap-
pointment. In the hope of restoring
pleasant relations between the eminent
mathematician and THE INDEPENDENT
we suggest u bit of DISTINGUISHED advice:
DO not promise eight Offices to seven
men, or vice versa. There is no ruling
to adjust complications of this sort, not
even in Bob Fishers statutes of the

THE st. Louis Republic has II rather
serious discussion on the subject of

will furnish for examples a fine lot of
state stealers, who grow worse as they
continue in the business.

oneloquent sermon on thepomps and
vanities OF the world, staggered his
congregation by exclaiming:-
"Here am standing here preaching
to you with only half shirt on my
back, while you sit there covered with
gew-gaws and other baubles.'
The next day q parcel. containing
several brand-new shirts, was left at
his house by one of his hearers,
kind-hearted old lady. Meeting the
donor a few days afterwards, he
thanked her exceedingly, but expressed
much surprise atreceiving such an un.
expected gift
"Oh," said the lady, ssyou mention.
ed in your sermon on Sunday that
you had only a half q shirt on your
back"
"Quite true" added his reverence.

THE word quarantine which is now
of significant meaning, comes from
the italian, quarantine. The monk.
ish or thelate Latin term was applied
by the Anglo Saxon about Egbert's
time. It was then the custom to
compute periods OF time by fortiers,
and a vessel coming from a suspected
or diseased port was prohibited any
intercourse with shore for forty days.
Others say that the Venetians first
introduced the practice and the name.
