"Traitor, if you will, was M. John
Paul Jones. afterward knight Of his
most Christian majesty's Order of Mer-

sword"
Such were almost the last words
traced by the hand of Thackeray, and
they show the astonishing ~misconcep-
tion Of Paul Jones which prevailed in
the mind of one of the justest men that
aver lived. Washington was a hero even
to his enemies, yet Washington had ao-
tually held a commission in the Brit
ish army. while Paul Jones could say
to the American congress at the close Of
the war: Il have never borne arms under
any but the American flag, nor have /
ever borne or acted under any commits
sion but that Of the congress of Amer
lea. This singular distinction against
Paul Jones extended to the whole Of the
feeble naval force Of the colonies. Sol
diers wero treated from tho beginning
as prisoners of war, while until Paul
Jones forced an exchange of prisoners
upon equal terms American sailors were
formally declared to DO traitors pi-
rates and folons. Paul Jones, " by

ton in October. During her thres years
she pursued her studies with distinction,
and in 1885 she was placed-we may
not yet say graduated-in the second
class of the classical tripos. Meanwhile
she had been passing the examination
Of London university. In 1882 she was
placed in tho first division Of the inter-
mediate, with the prize for German,
and in 1885 she passed the full B. A.
with honors in Crock and Latin. Two
years later she was hfth on tho list Of
NJ. A. g in the classical branch Of the ex-
animation, and in 1889 she passed first
in mediaeval and modern French and
German in order TO qualify for the de-
gree Of doctor Of literature, which she
has just attained.
On my asking her something as to
how she had achieved her success she
modestly disclaimed, as do all beroines
(and heroes, tool, having anything at
all to tell. She placed in my hand a
bulky pamphlet Of some 100 pages on
THE Pronunciation Of the Greek Aspir-

examiners. 1t was, she feared, very lit
tie more than a compilation from the
ordinary German pathological authori-
ties, and she had only been able to work
at it during odd times in the intervals
of the regular work of her school. The
examiners had, as was their usual Gus
tom, examined her further upon the sub
ject and had kindly taken care to ques-
ton her on points which she had not
dwelt upon in the dissertation itself.
On my asking her why she had chosen
such a subject she said she hardly knew,

Strange story Of the scuttIIng Of q Great
Steamship BY Pirates.
What a strange story is that COM
municated by the Duke of Newcastle to
The Globe concerning the loss Of the
Presidontl He says that a trustworthy
informant in the United States assured
him that a%sailor, dying in ON American
port, had confessed to having formed
one of the crew Of q pirate vessel which
captured the great steamship. Every
soul on board was made to walk the
plank, and the ship was scuttled."
The story seems incredible, yet It may
be true, and the possibility OF it gives
one quite a shock. 1t is 90 years ago
and moro since the President disappear
ed from human sight, without, / be-
lieve, leaving q trace. The loss of no
other vessel--for it was tho first Of the
great passenger ships to go-has caused
so great an excitement. How those at
home chung to hope, some Of them for
y~ears-for tho notion Of che crew being
wrecked on some out Of the way island
was eagerly e~dopted-and how many a
heart was broken by the intolerable
suspensel At last it was generally con-
oluded that tho ship had oollided with
an iceberg and foundered. And now
comes this terrible story, which, it is
fortunate, was not conceived Of when
it would have had the power to make
those at home more miserable.
It is not to be forgotten, however,
that more than one story has boen re-
Gently written upon this subjeot-tho

WHICH is RICH, RARE AND RACY.
Topeka State Journal [ Rep

The following letter from Major l. o. Picker
ing, showing up the utter weakness of Governor
Morrill's stand in regard to the enforcement of
the prohibitory law and the seditious results to
which it leads, has been received by the Journal.
Mr.. Pickering says:
"The reply of Governor Morrill, to my letter
published in the Journal regarding the nom
enforcement of the prohibitory law in localities
where public sentiment is adverse is fatuous
He does not, and cannot deny the analogy be-
tween his position as governor and that of Btu
chanan as president, an is content to LAY down
in the presence of handful of evil-disposed
men, congregated in few cities of Kansas, who
falsely claim to represent the local sentiment in
those cities, and publicly declares that, as to
those localities, the law cannot be enforced
''In the history Of this country, no similar
declaration has been made by the governor of
free people. The sentiment is not new, but,
heretofore has found expression only through
saloon-keepers, their friends and allies. Un-
fortunately for the people, the cry is now re-
peated from the capitol, and good men are hui
inflated and made to blush with shame and
indignation at this puerile surrender of the
functions of government.
"The laws constitute the life-blood of the
body polite. If they are dormant or defantly
violated in any part, that part becomes fester-
ing sore, and it is only question of time when
political gangrene destroys the state.
'But, says the governor in some localities
iuries will not convict on the strongest kind Of
evidence They ought not to convict on any
thing less than sufficient evidence, but failure
to convict when guilt is proven beyond reason
able doubt shows simply that those jurors are
foresworn, and criminal has thereby escaped
the penalty of violated law. The remedy is to
re-arrest as soon and as often as he commits an
other ofense, empannel another jury, and an
other, so long as the ofense is committed, until
you convict, and he who claims the cost is too
much is an enemy of society and his state.
'sNo more benefcent use was ever made of
taxes drawn from the people than in paying the
legitimate expenses incurred in the enforcement
of their laws, and the educative force of the
payment of these taxes made necessary by the
prosecution of these enemies of social order is
incalculable. Better deficit for this cause
than mountain of municipal revenue drawn

he don't know that modern Republicanism is
