They Quit Even.

The Ehquirer-Sun, apropos Of the
lawyers pitching into experts on the
witness stand in murder cases, says a
case is recalled where the lawyer
looked quizzically at the doctor who
was testifying, and said:
doctors som times make mistakes,
don't they?"
1.-The same as lawyers was the
reply.
"But doctors mistakes are buried
six feet under the ground" said the
lawyer.
"Ees," said tie doctor, "and law
yers' mistakes sometimes swing SIX
feet in the air."

Suburban Boom at Jerusalem.

From the Buffalo Commercial.
Corner lots in Jerusalem may have
novel sound to real estate dealers ears,
but it looks as if they would yet hold a
place in the speculative market. Land
a mile out Of Jerusalem that thirty
years age sold for dollar an acre has
been bought by company owhlng the
Jaffa and Jerusalem railway-a fifty
three mile line of road-for some So, ,OCO
an acre. Bethlehem and Bsit Jela
furnished most of the stone-cutters for
the new railroad. Imagine a strike
ordered by the Bethlehem stone-cut-
ters' union to secure 80 instead of 50
cents day!

THE SOUTH NEEDN'T COMPLAIN.
Some of the important Offices the PresI-
dent Has Distributed Gown in Dixie.

WASHINGTON, April 16.-Ouly fif-
teen of the forty diplomatic missions
under the State Department have been
given to residents Of Southern States.
Alabama has received the Spanish mis-
sion. Louisiana the French embassy.
Tennessee the mission to Chilli, Texas
that to Turkey, Missouri the Swiss
mission, Delaware the embassy to
Great Britain, Kentucky the mission
TO Peru, Georgia that to Guatemala
and Honduras, and North Carollnlan
gets the appointment to the mission
which includes Greece, Roumanla and
Servia.
These are not the only good berths in
the foreign service which nave gone ["
the South. Two uls-Generai, posts
which are but little inferior III rank 20
those of Ministers, have been chosen
from below Mason and DiXon's line.
They are those to Vienna and Mexico,
both of whom come from Missouri.
Several other good foreign places have
been given to the South.
In the domestic service of the Gov
erument, the South has been almost
equally fortunate. Mississippi has fur
nished an Assistant Secretary OF the
Interior and the Recorder Of the Gen
eral Land Office. Maryland has the
S.,~rintende-.t of Immigration and
one Of the Chief Justices of the District
Court of appeals, Virginia the Solicitor

Appeals Judyesbips. Resides these,
the three important Cabinet places
held by Southern men must not De 'or-
gotten, the Secretaryships of the Treas
ury, Navy AID Interior.

well so far at the pie. counter, consider
ing that the Administration is only

Valuable Find Of q Diver.

A very important archaeological find
was made in November last, according
to the Philadelphia Ledger, in the
harbor of Saloniche by diver in
search of sponges. When the diver
came up from the bottom of the sea he
displayed 4 handful. not of sponges,
but of silver coins of very antique
date. He turned over the coins TO the
proprietor of the boat, who ordered
him back to find some more coins He
went down to the bottom of the sea
several times in succession Finally
he found at the depth Of about one
hundred feet an iron box. which con-
tanned nearly eighteen pounds OF sill
yer coin. The proprietor of the boat
made the seamen in his employ prom
Use to be silent. He made them some
presents n money, and the find re-
manned secret for nearly three
months. Recently one of the seamen,
having quarreled with his master. be-
trayed the secret TO the Greek govern
ment. and the latter compelled him to
produce the coins They date back C.
the DAYS Of ancient Macedonia. and
are in an excellent state Of preSerra-

The aaehta ay Eaye Saturday 1oruuo gane II, 1888

ton shows a profound misconception
Of the fundamental nature of our sys-
TEN. upon the maintenance of which
depends the perpetuity of the republic.
The trainers of the constitution pro-
vided for two sorts of representation in
congress, popular representation OF
the people of the several states in the
lower house, and representation of the
states themselves as entities, as real
living bodies, in the senate. They Sc
cured these by providing that repre-
sentatiyes should be elected by popular
vote. and senators by the vote of the
legislatures of the state. The consti-
tuition was not adopted by popular
vote. but by the vote of the states.
given according to their natures by the
legislatures. The state acts through
its legislature and it's executive, and
not by popular movement directly. 1t
needs no argument to show that TO
the election of senators is to change
fundamentally the character of our
government, and also to remove one of
the safeguards against impulsive move
ments to which our stability, in cent
ury of revolutions elsewhere, has been
the machine with its original checks
and balances. as the phrase IS, we have
the most stable government on earth.
