DIsRABLLs LASTING WORK.

The books on which Disraeli's repu-
tation alone can be founded are Con
ingsby.'' "Sybil," and Lothian" These
all contain many striking epigrams, in
genious theories, original suggestions, vi
vacious caricatures, and even creative
refexions mixed, it must be admitted,
with not a little transparent nonsense.
But they are all SO charged will bright
invention, keen criticism, quaint paradox,
they are so entirely unlike anything else
in our recent literature, and they touch
roots of our social and political fabric,
that they may long continue to be read,
England will one day be as just, as
America now is, to one of her wittiest
writer's. He will one day be formally
admitted into he ranks of the Men Of
Letters. His books, even his worst
books, abound in epigrams, pictures,
character, and scenes of rare wit. His
painting of Parliamentary life in Eng,
land has neither equal nor rival. And
his reflections of English society an pol
tiles reveal the insight of vast expert
ence and profound genius.-October For

Her Tart Allusion to the May

Honorary Secretary, and the Duke OF
Argyle, Jacob Bright, Frederic Harrison,
Justin Mccarthy. Rev. DR.. Newman, the
Rev. Canon Shuttleworth and others,
members of the English to
protect American negroes from lynch
law
Il have read with delight your letter
announcing the formation, aims and
methods of your committee to obtain ren-
able information on the subject OF lynch
ing and mob outrages in America; 10
make the facts known, and to give eX-
preston to public opinion IN condemna-
ton of such outrages in whatever way
may best seem calculated TO assist the
cause of humanity and civilization.
" The members are united on this one
fundamental principle: that every human
tribunal, and is. no matter how heinous
the alleged crime, innocent in law until
proved guilty by the law.
" Each outrage is referred by Ine Elk
ecutive to the Governor of the Seate IN
which it is reported to have occurred. TO,
gether with a respectful request that all
facts may be furnished
This announcement of the committee
needs only one enlargement to make 1t
truly international, and that is, after the
words in America to add and IN Eng
land 1t VIII tnen embrace III llo oSOPC
everything we are seeking in the case OF
Mrs. Maybrick, and will receive the en-
thusiastic cooperation of all Americans
who have been trying for five years to
rescue her from the lynch law of Eng
land.
I'm one particular the deadly parallel
is carried beyond the parallelism; you re-
alize the extreme delicacy of dealing
with the internal affairs of other States
in matters with which their Federal Gov.
eminent seems powerless to intervene.
We feel the extreme delicacy OF deallns
with a Government hat is not only
powerless to intervene, but which Itself
Committed and commits the outrage
against which we desire Intervention. II
Won feel the need of American co-opera7
tion, how much more must we feel the
need of English cooperation. III 4
.In your search for facts you need
money and ask for subscriptions. N
practical expression of sympathy and "
furtherance of the suppression OF illega4
outrages in both countries, l herepN
proffer to your committee the sum OF $op
for the production of evidence certiifeq
by the Lord Chief Justice Of england

Crane as sir John FaIstafr.

Crane, the comedian, continues to at
tract large audiences to the New York
Star Theatre with his production of
S~hakespeare's MERRY Wives of Windsor"
The druggists, who have been in con-
vention in Gotham, attended the per-
Torrance in a body last week, and at the
Saturday matinee a great portion of the
house was occupied by the members of a
private Academy for young ladies. Sec
one night last week and on another even

Colonel Thomas Ochiltree were present.
This is the time of year When the big
railroads run excursions into New York
and nan of the sightseers have helped
to swell Mr.. Cranes audiences. The
comedians portrayal of Sir John Fall
staff has increased in its oily humor,
and his work is frequently punctuated
by the audience with laughter and APP
plause. Mr.. Crane has a new comedy
called The Pacific Mali in preparation
for production, but he is not at all anxi-

The Brothers Byrne still continue to
amuse and entertain large audiences in
the Academy of Music with the new
every night this week and Saturday mat
inee.
It is said that when the three acrobats
fall over to make the human bridge
across the chasm in 1.-THE Span of Life"
there is always a Shrek from some ex-
eitable woman in the audience. 1t is a
most thrilling feat. An opportunity to
see it will be given mex Monday night
at the Academy of Music.
The Bon Ton.
The Bon Ton Theatre seems to fill a
peculiar mitch at the heart of Jersey
City Theatre goers. Business at this
pretty little playhouse is large and ex-
planned in only one way. People in
Jersey City know a good thing when
they see it and the Bon Ton certainly
gives full value for their money.
The programme for this week is an ex-
cellent one while hat for next week
promises to be one of unusual merit.

doubtful.
AS for THE defeated candidates, there
is only one thing to say. They had tnf
fairest kin of fair play. They were
| given free platform to plead their cause
| before the people. They cannot com
| plain OF their treatment at the hands
of the old leaders, still less of the attl'
tude of the newspapers towards them
They controlled the entire primary ma
| chinerv themselves. The idea was their
own, and, in Mr.. Records W words,
they had determined men at the polls
everywhere, and all the terrors of the
law at their back to prevent injustice
or fraud.
With all these advantages, their defeat
is still of an overwhelming character.
Mr.. Record does not poll, as near as we
can judge, over 20 per cent. of the total
vote cast, perhaps not so much. The
extremity of this result, we believe, was
in no small degree due to his own cam
paign methods. We had occasion more
than once to call attention to the unfair
manner in which he attempted to dis
count the results of the primaries. We
believe the same impression was made
on the general public as on us. We
think the people were a trif1e disguised
with a gentleman who provoked a COM
bat. chose his own weapons and then
went about shouting that if he was
beaten, it would be a wicked thing and
a cause of ruin and disaster to the Demo
cratic party.
1t only remains for Mr.. Records allies
to now keep the promise they made, and
turn in and work earnestly to win a
victory for Colonel Stevens, Mr.. O'Don-
nell and the Assembly candidates against
the common enemy.
