DURING the absence of the editor of THE
News on his summer vacation, a cores
pendent in the Burlington Reporter men,
toned his name in connection with the
Senatorial nomination. For the kind
words said the unknown writer will please
accept thanks, but we have no Senatorial
aspirations, at least for this year. The
preference of the editor of THE NEWS is
for the denomination of Senator Parry.
He has been an efficient and faithful off
cial, an honor to the county, without stain
upon his political record. Burlington
county was never better represented in
the Senate than during the past three
years. To make a change just as Sena-
tor becomes acquainted with his duties
and is in position to be of increased val
ne has been the custom in this county,
but it is not wisdom. Union, Cumberland
and other counties that have influence be-
lieve in continuing good officers. Why
not Burlington? Senator Parry has been
the champion of good government, Of
economy and of reform, and if these count
he should secure the denomination that he
is actively working for.

WHEN Senator Parry's Freebooter bill
was before the senate it met with decided
opposition from Mercer county, but from
all reports there is no locality in the state
that more sorely needs some change in its
government. The echoes of the scandal
connected with the building of its stone
roads have not yet died away, and the
grandjury has indicted two public officials,
one of them a member of the Board OF
Freeholders, whose offence was selling
coal to the county in violation of a law on
hat subject.
COMPLAINTS over the condition of the
stone roads in various parts of the
county show the necessity of conformity
to the state law requiring the appoint
ment of county supervisor of roads.
1t will be remembered that when there
was objection to some of these roads be-
ing built the Board of Freeholders re-
fused to sanction the work, and the result
was the issuing of mandamus with big
bill for costs of litigation which the tax
payers settled. Just so sure as the law with
reference to supervisor is ignored, SINH
lar proceedings will follow. Has the
Board of Freeholders any right to refuse
to follow the mandates of the law, and
run the county to the expense of law

Did you see the little fellow conf ny down
the eastern sky,
On the midnight car in splendor, from his
high and natal heaven,
While an Ancient going westward whisper
ed out faint gooi-hye2
He's a monarch, and they call him ''Eigh-
teen Hundred Ninety-S4ven."
Silllen curIs his head is tossing. youthful
bloom is on his face,
And he brings to us eNpeCtaMce, and a
hand chock-fuil of tricks,
Yet few of MS remember how we welcom-
ed to his place
The gaunt spectre that departed Eighteen
Hundred Ninety-siN
They are both of one long lineage, and ar
rive d with checks agIow,
To lead on life's procession, with a steady
martial rhyme;
What is protfered us beforehand there is
none al once can know,
Except that each must charge us with an
other year Of time.
Then farewell to him who left us-mav the
book beneath his arm
Have record not dsfavoring at the final
Grand Assize;
One can see he never meant to bring us OBJ
loquy harm,
For he left the western doorway with soft
mo isture i'll his eyes.
L HouSi Ghe solemn cypress branches ana the
long-enduring pine
Be piled in gracious honor on his sepul-
chre and bier,
Let us turn our faces forward to the leader
of the line,
And fling wreaJhs, in exultation, on thu
new and better year.
On the hills rainbow glistens, there is mu-
sic in the air,
And hope whispers as aforetime, with it's
JUNCTION to each heart;
NOW the future will be rosy, and the jour
ney must be fair,
And the ogres that distressed US shall for
evermore depart
SO to-day we give to pleasure, to rich ban
quoting and song,
To the hopes that round our lives out, and
to things beloved and dear;
AS the old king has departed let us Join the
millioned throng,
And bring abundant welcome to the new
one that is here.

EX-Mlnster to treat Britain UphOldS Secretary
Oiney and Says Country Needs Time to Attend
to Its own Affairs.
Hon. E. j. Phelps Of Burlington, Vt,
has expressed himself on the Cuban situa-
ton as follows:
81 have no doubt that the position of
Sec. Olney as recently published is entirely
correct.
1.-The question what government shall be
recognized in country where an attempt
at revolution is in progress is certainly for
the executive to determine, and not for
congress. No legislation by that body
can under any consideration decide it.
They can OF course pass resolutions upon
the subject if they please. But they in
no respect control the discretion or the
action of the president.
Besides, no government can be recog-
nized until it exists. The government
recognized by other governments when
dispute in respect to it exists is always the
defacto government. The recognition by
other nations of a government once in eX-
istence must always continue until it is
actually subverted and a new one is in its
place, when it is overthrown and another
established that becomes entitled to recog-
milton.
ne ltDtlS Ill CuDd NAVE no organized
government, and not even an abiding
place which they can call their own. They
are merely a guerilla force, which would
speedy be annihilated if it allowed itself
to be drawn into a general engagement
with the Spanish army.
st preserves its existence by its deX-
terty in avoiding such an engagement.
1t would be absurd to say that such force
constitutes government, OF that the Span
iSh government in Cuba has been over
thrown or that any diplomatic relations
could exist between these rebels and the
government of the United States.
IF this country interferes by arms in
that contest it must be by assisting the
rebels in Cuba to replace the Spanish
government and to set up another. This
would be a declaration of war against
| Spain, a country with which we are and
always have been at peace, and from
which we have received no injury and no
provocation.
sit would be a gross and utterly I'M
| justitiable violation of international law,
which no country can afford to perpe-
trate in the eyes of the world.
1T would, in my judgment, be fatal
to that restoration of business prosperity
which is now our most vital necessity,
ana Wnlcn mas Deen SO long postponed
that it cannot be much longer delayed
without the most serious consequences.
1--WE cannot afford to go to war with
any country at this time unless wal
should be forced upon us in self defence,
which would be a grave calamity OF
which there is no danger.
''We need above all things, rest and
peace and opportunity to attend to oul
own affairs without the interruption of a
constant panic and alarm set on foot and
kept up by reckless congressional and
political agitators

1879 FuIl=Rigged Ships.


Prior to the rebellion the american
clipper Ship was the pride of the world
and the consignees of all cargoes felt at
ease when they knew their goods We're
safely slowed in the holes Of one of these
famous vessels, but the late rebellion
caused our shipowners to place their yes
sells under foreign flags and at the end
of the war the navigation laws of the
country would not allow them back, and
consequently at the beginning of 1866 our
shipowners started in to build new ones.
England, in the meantime, had made up
her mind that the carrying trade of the
world was worth having and started in
building iron ships; later on steel ships,
then iron tramp steamers, until to- day she
has almost driven the American ship from
the seas.
The following table will show the num-
Der of ships, banks and barkentines built
in the United States for every fiscal year
