Republicans IN q Hole.

= The Republicans in Congress are
greatly embarrassed by the demand of
the Democrats that the slaves in Sulu
shall be emancipated. Representative
Patterson, Of Tennessee, has introduce
ed bill intended to accomplish that
result Unless this is accepted by the
Republicans they will convict them
selves Of Inconsistency and will have
TO abandon the claim that they are
the special champion OF human liberty.
Its the boast Of the Republican party
that they gave liberty to four million
blacks Of the Southern States. and
now the Democrats insist that they
shall do as much for the brown men
OF Sulu. 1t is well known fact that
slavery exists there under the author
ity andb the permission Of the United
States government under an agreement
entered. into by General Bates and the
Sultan Of Sulu. 1t can no longer be
said that slavery does not exist on any
soil over which floats the flag Of the
Union. Now what is TO be the fate OF
the Patterson bill? If it be accepted by
the Republicans then the treaty with
the Sultan OF Sulu will have to be re-
pudiated and active steps will have to
be taken to abolish slavery as well as
polygamy in territory claimed by the
United States. If the bill is rejected.
then the Republicans can no longer
claim TO be the special champions Of
human liberty. The truth of the whole
mater is that the question of emanci-
patton is and has been one OF expedi-
ency rather than principle with the
Republican party. The war in the
South was waged not for the cmanci-
patton Of the slaves, but for the pre-
servation OF the Union. Emancipation
was a mere incident of that great con
test 1t was war measure intended
TO weaken the Confederacy, and now
expediency will control the Republican
party in dealing with the Sultan of Sulu
If more can be gained by tolerating
slavety in Sulu than by emancipation,
shen slavery will he -tI9lsrated regard

A Persian Mode Of PunIshment

An extraordinary punishment is
IN vogue in Persia. 1t consists in
taking the culprit through the fol-
lowing course of sprouts" and is
said to be very effectual, especially
when it has been applied to one
guilty of the third offense:
The first time man is caught in
the act of stealing he is 'Hbastina-
doed" (beaten on the soles of the
feet with an iron rod) and made to
sign a paper declaring that that will
be his last offense. If he forgets
this when the soles of his feet quit
burning and tries it again, the sec
ond offense calls for the amputation
of his right hand. If he is still OBJ
durate and goes at it left handed.
the third and of course last resort
Is decapitation.

How the Continents Attract Seas.

The effect of gravitation in heap
ing up the sea waters upon the
shores of continents is one of the
most interesting as well as the most
curious and least considered facts in
connection with old oceans history.
Thus the continents are all situated
at tops of great hills or mountains
of water, and to cross the Atlantic
or any other ocean the ship has to
first 90 down the sloping sheet.
cross the valley and then climb the
mountain Of water on the other side
before it safely reaches a harbor.
In this connection the interesting
calculation has been made that in
midocean on the Atlantic the de-
preston is about three-fourths of a
mile below the level of the water at
coast line, while a ship in travelling
from San Francisco to Yokohama,
Japan, must cross a valley at least
mile in depth.

HANDLES Appetite.

George Frederick Handel, who
was a composer at the age of nine
and had written three operas before
he was fifteen, was a man of I'M
commonly large appetite, and it is
told of him that whenever he stop
ped at an inn or elsewhere where the
host was not familiar with the
greatness of his hunger he would
order dinner for three.
Upon one occasion he gave his or
der for three as usual, and when the
hour for dinner arrived he called
to his host:

The Riaht lime 70 Renin-

1t was during trip to the Med
Iterranean when Admiral Goldsbor-
ough was in command of the feet
that the chaplain, a Jealous young
man, preferred request to hold serv-
ices on board the flagship on Sun
day mornings. The first Sunday
after permission had been given the
young chaplain's trepidation gave
place to supreme satisfaction when
he noted that with the exception of
the admiral the officers and men of
the fleet were assembled in full
force. After waiting n few mo-
ments for the admiral, who failed to
appear, the chaplain opened the
services in regulation manner: ''The
Lord Is in his holy temple. Let all
the earth keep silence before him"
As the voice rang out in the OPEN
ing words the admiral walked on
deck, and, though his face betoken-
ed storm, he took his seat i'm ST
lence and so remained until the con-
gregation had been dismissed. Then
he rose and, striding over 10 the
chaplain, said, young man, ! want
you to understand in future that
the Lord is not in this holy temple
