Alabama's New Election Law.
From the PntsbsrrO Post tDem.).

'N't tto HtoNNSb N'' NSc"t'J
The new election law of Alabama attempts to
solve the problem OF negro suffrage in a
straightforward manner. It establishes an
educational qualification for voters without re-
gard 70 color race or class. The result will be
the Acknowledgement OF about 40, 600 blacks and
10000 whites. There is nothing 10 the war
amendments to prevent such action. The state
has the supreme power OF regulating the suf-
TRACE, subject only to the condition there shall
be no discrimination on account of color, The
Alabama plan has the merit Of honesty and i'm
partiality but is likely to raise breeze among
the distranchised whites,

They say that Mr.. White. secretary OF
legation at London, Is indispensable because
OF his knowledge of what American politics
owes to British society. But 'they" are
evidently mistaken. What is the matter with
our own and only original Ward McAlIis-
terl Can anybody doubt that he would be
able 70 discount Mr. White at his own bust
ness9 Come to think of it. it is little odd
that Mr.. McAllister has never sought the
position OF first secretary of legation at
London or Paris. 1t may be that he finds
the directing of the social functions of the
-Four Hundred Of New York more conge-
NAL than he would find the directing Of the
social functions Of an American minister
But, then, just think of the noble people his
official position and his superb assurance
would bring him in contact with.

A suicide club has been organized at Gal.

as president. The members avow that
boarding houses, creditors and collectors

A Chicago young lady will leave home
to-day on a novel railroad trip. She will
travel from Chicago to the Pacific ocean,
thence to Mexico and from there to the

CURRENT COMMENT.
Good for the Opponents of Hanging.

From the Philadelphia Record (Denl).
The governor Of New Jersey has signed bill
permitting newspaper men to attend execu-
tons This will be so much capital for the op-
ponents OF the death penalty. Nothing could
more surely tend to the abolition of the gallows
than the realistic accounts of its workings-gen.
orally its faulty and most barbarous workings
to which the gentlemen Of the press never fail
to do the ampest justice that space will allow.

Sugar From [ cotton Seed.

The cotton plant, which has for so
many centuries furnished a large part Of
the population of the globe with cloth
ing, seems to be almost without limit in
its usefulness, remarks scientific au-
thority.
From the seed valuable oil is ex.
pressed, while the husks form an article
Of food for cattle in the shape Of cakes.
From the lint which clings to the seed
after it has passed through the "ein"
felt is made. while the oil extracted from
the seed is applied to quite a large nun.
Der OF purposes. But, according to the
British Consul, Mr.. Portal, OF Zanzibar,
Africa, cotton seed is also canable OF
yielding sugar. A process has been dis.
covered for extracting sugar from cotton
seed meal, and, though tho details of
this process have not been disclosed, it
is said that the product obtained is Of
very superior grade, being fifteen times
sweeter than cane sugar aud twenty times
more so than sugar made from beet.
This indicates that sweetness is not due
to cane sugar, but 10 some other chemi-
cal. Scientific American.
