CONCERNING MISS MURPHY.

AS was noticed in the dispatche,
yesterday, Miss Murphy is a hippopota'
mus, in Central Park. New York, and
she is brooding over the death of her
babY-refusing to be comforted. She
walks in her c~age-dejected, distressed
and apparently heart. broken.
And who shall say? Is psy chology a
science and is the TRANSPORTATION of the
soul a possibility?
Who knows, but that the soul of that
thick skinned and wonderful animal once
was the soul of a devoted mother-of a
human being who passed b~eyond-and
nature in her economy, which is to lose
nothing, created Miss Murphy for a pur
pose known best to Him
One theory is just about as good as an
other-but Miss Murphy's conduct does
prove this: If animals have only instinct
then instinct is far superior to the So
called Reason of many inhuman mothers.

AS TO ANNEXATION,

When we get all the islands connected
and coupled to the United States, and
we will, then that will make more fat
offices for the politician of the United
States.
There will be a lot of second hand
thrones for sale, but they will perhaps
bring first cost, and that ends it.
We should by all means have the Fiji
islands, and the Cannabel islands.
The territory of TimbuctOo should he
added as a sort of summer lawn, and
hen we should annex Iceland and GreeL-
land during the summer months. Cuba
must come into our arms, and the north
pole should be discovered by America
and seized for back taxes.
With a country already threatening a
revolution, it occurs to us that our states
men, so-called, could find enough to do
attending to our present garden patch,
without wildly jumping astride the Brit
ish Lion and twisting its tail for more
territory.

DOING 1T RIGHT.

The town council did business right
last night when they ordered that the
| O'Briant building, and others, reeking in
filth around that section be given a thor
ough and absolute cleansing.
All of this scandal had gone far enough,
and toe far, We imagine.
Now that the health officer, DR. JOHN.
| SON, has been given orders to cleanse this
cesspool of filth, and clean away this
putridity, we hope that other places in
town which seem to invite official atten'
ton, will be given a warning.
This town does not of necessity need
prate of its good health-and il is excep-
tionai-so long as such pestilential
places as the O'Briant building GO unfu
migated.
The council and the members who re
commended that the dirt and filth, gath
ering and accommodating for so long a
time he removed, and that the building
be fumigated, deserve the thanks of all
good citizens.
DIR. JOHNSON will at once commence
his process of fumigation-and We hope
that the work will be speedily and thor.
oughly done.

There are $500, zoo, 900 standard silver
dollars piled up in the treasur at Wash
ington held to redeem silver certificates
now in circulation. There is also about
140, 600, 900 ounces of silver bullion for
which treasury notes have been issued.
The secretary Of the treasury is at liberty
ways to direct that all or any portion
Of these lac, OOO,0 600 ounces be coined
into standard silver dollars. The profits
resulting from transforming this bullion
into coin would be $40, zoo, 900.
1t can therefore be seen at a glance that
the distress which commerce Of our
country is at present suffering can at once
be relieved by coming the bullion and
exchanging it for gold with those who
are now compelled to pay BROKERS a
premium to secure currency of small
denomination to make change. At the
same time adding largely to the gold re-
serve that no one could have the slight
est apprehension Of the government run
ming short of the yellow metal.
But Cleveland policy is to brighten
investors by doing everything in bis
power to discredit silver and create the
impression that the government cannot
keep gold enough to maintain the parity
without suspending silver coinage. He
predicts disaster, and then does all in his
power to verify his own predictions.

one delegate at large from each precinct

tons were acted upon by appointing q
