There is general disposition here to
criticise the failure to extend invitations
to ex-President Harrison and ex-Nlce-
President Morton to attend the naval
review and the opening Of the worlds
fair. 1t was certainly a very unusual
lack Of courtesy on the part Of those who
sent ont the invitations. Secretary
Herbert is the guilty man, SO far as the
naval review is considered, but there
seems to be a doubt as to who is to
blame for the failure to
invite them to the worlds fair
1t will be remembered that Mr.
Cleveland was invited to attend the ded
icatory ceremonies, held at Chicago last
September.
Having received about all the "glory'
that could be distracted from his alleged
snubbing of Wall street bankres, it is
stated that Secretary Carlisle has not
only promised to go to New York, If an
other furry occurs, to confer with the
aforesaid Wall street bankers, but also
to pay them for the use of any gold he
may find it necessary to borrow from
them. Verify, this administration is IA
queer compound; but so is the party
that put it in office.

that simpler minds regard AS prophecies.
President Garfield a few months before
his death related to a friend the follow
ing incidents:
As General Garfield entered the con-

man distributing haves of the New Tes-
lament handed OH to him which the
engrossed politician folded and put in
his pocket. Long arer the nomination
he took down the suiNhe had worn that
eventful day. and bebre putting it OF

drew out paper pressd into narrow
fold, one verse only bing visible. 1t

There is nothing in the world which
produces the sense of mental nausea
more completely, or is more certain to
turn the intellectual stomach, than the
use Of certain iocularities Of speech with
which many people think fit to adorn
their conversation. The people who
seem to find it impossible to speak of an
unmarried man exc pt rs "a gay bach
elor," with whom the sea is always the
briny" or the "helrng pond, and a
horse "a fiery steed," VINO cternally talk
about SUNDAY o-to-meeting clothes,
and who have such phrases as mo extra
charge, "agitate the tinuEu&bulator,"
1.-THE noxious weed. the pipe Of peace"
40 winks, and Drawing the elements"
forever on their lips, are capable Of pro-
ducing sense of disgust i'll those who
care to see language kept bright and
clean which is absolutely intolerable.
1t is difficult to say whether these can't
phrases-that is, perfectly proper de-
scription of them-are more odious when
used consciously or unconsciously that
is, by people who believe them to be funny
and intend that their hearers should con-
slider them funny, or by those who have
merely caught them up and repeat them
like parrots and without any intention,
good or bad. -London Spectator.

TERMS OF SUBSCRIPTION.

The present board OF regents OF the
Agricultural college has commenced at
the right end to insure success. Their
time has been spent in investigating the
acts of the old board with the view Of
understanding what has been done and
what nas not been done, so as to give
them a thorough knowledge of the pres
ent standing of the institution. OF
course they find the foundation work to
be in a bad condition, and they are de-
termined to have all defects cured before
they commence the erection of the su-
perstructure. The old faculty has, with
few exceptions been retired. This will
enable them to procure new faculty re-
moved from the disgrace which has been
hanging over this institution, With a
new faculty, appointed on their merits,
the adoption of business principles IN
the management, and suitable buildings
to accommodate the students, success
will be certain.
