The Republicans in Ohio are not so to-.
nacious of their rights ID those in Della
ware, and hence Governor Bushnell an
nounees for tho benefit OF all concerned,
that on the resignation Of Hon. John
Sherman he will appoint to succo. d him
in the U. S. Senate the Hou. Marcus A.
Hanna, to serve until his successor shall
be chosen by the General Assembly of the
State. Governor Bushnell is sensible and
will select the man for Senator who has
earned the position, and will not allow
himself to be used by u set of aspirants
who are ready to draw the chestnu,s out

We hope the ostensible leaders in our State
may learn wisdom from his example, and
not stand ready to defeat the party, mere

Naval Experience.

Unhappily for naval science-hRppily
for all other iDterests-experience dur
ing the 40 years of the life of modern
warships has been rare and inconclusiye
The effect is that the opinion of naval
architects and naval officers is left halt
ing between experiment. ard experience
And the very infrequency of actusl
fighting at sea during period in which
the navies Of the world have been CON-
pletely transformed is liable to lead to
one sided or vastly exaggerated esti-
mate Of the historical data at our dis
posaL There is a tendency to exalt the
weapon which has proved its efficiency
most lately into the one ponderable
factor beside which all others may be
neglected.
The school of experiment needs correc-
ton, but the school Of experience often
lacks balance. 1t is apt to forget that
the experience which it generalizes is
always fra0mentary and often irrele-
want. Thus, after the American civil
war, with its Merrimac and its Mont
tor, armor became the one thing need

was to be the deciding factor in all frI-
ture combats. The engagements ON the

1878 brought about similar apotheosis
Of the torpedo. And the China-Japa-

he still found time tc impart the rudi-

noise and the death rate.

It Is Of course impossible TO state *.
actly what part noise in New York city
plays in the death rate and She sick
list, but every physician knows it must
be considerable. Often the physician
in his daily rounds fnds it necessary
to prescribe perfect quiet'' in order
that the Pickering spark ef life ~
msining in the patient may be broueAt
back TO a healthy flame, yet in Rine
cases out of ten that perfect quiet he
deems SO important cannot be had
owing TO the noise from the street. Es-
pecially is this true in warm weather.
when windows must be kept open.
The makers of unnecessary noise in
New York are not confined to any one
class. All are more or less guilty, from
the church people to the organ grinder
and the street peddler. Any one who
studies this subject and o. YES care
fully viii be astonished - disguised
at the reckless disregard Of each for the
health. peace and comfort Of all others.
If You shculd go for a walk in Fifth
avenue on a fine afternoon and all sorts
and conditions of people were to begin
to assault you with switches. you would
call the police. They would be prompt
~ arrested and properly punished.
What fer? They have not killed you or
MANNED you or drawn any blood, and
you are apparently none the worse for
these assaults. What they have done is
to irritate the nerve examinations of one
of your five senses-viz, that Of touch,
or the tactile sense, and through the
nerves of this sense they have made you
conscious of painful sensations. This is
exactly the treatment you do receive
from these same people by their un-
necessary assaults on another sense
viz, that of hearing. But should you
ask the authorities to interfere III this
case. you would likely be arrested your
