JOY IN A GARDEN,

God Almighty first planted a garden; and, in
deed, it is the purest of human pleasures, 1t is
the greatest refreshment to the spirits of man.
without which buildings and palaces are but
gross handiwork; and man shall ever see that
when ages grow to civility and elegance men
come to build stately, sooner than to garden
finely; as If gardening were the greater perfec-
ton. / do hold it, in the royal order Of gar
dens there ought to be gardens for all the
months of the year in which, generally, things
of beauty may be then in season.

AGAINST INSTRUCTIONS.

Mr.. Murphy, the Tammany leader,
in an interview, is reported as saying
that he is opposed to any plan to have
the Democratic Convention of that
state instruct the delegates to st. Louis
for any particular presidential candi-
date. In discussing the subject he
said that it was his idea that the
New York delegation should go to the
convention uninstructed, so as to be
in position to do what is best for
the interests of the party. He said:
Instructions would hamper US, and
l won't stand for them"
This clearly means that Mr.. Murphy
isn't for Judge Parker. 1t is fact
that many of the district leaders of
Tammany and the upstate leaders
generally favor the nomination of
Judge Parker Mr.. Murphy wouldn't
object to an instructed delegation if
he favored him.
The impression has prevailed all along
that Mr.. Murphy has a candidate of
his own, and that he will name him
Just as soon as he thinks he can do
so with the hope of having him &C
cepted as New York's choice. Just
at present Judge Parker seems to be
the choice of the New York Democracy,
and unless Mr.. Murphy is more in
luential than he is generally believed
to be the New York delegation to st.
Louis will be instructed for him.
A little incident occurred at Albany,
N. Y, on Tuesday that indicated Judge
Parker's popularity and brought from
him the first reference he has made
to the efforts to nominate him. He
was the guest of number of the mem
bers of the Legislature, among them
being the Tammany senators and rep
resentatives, and, during the dinner,
one of the Tammany men referred to
him as not only the choice of Tam
many Hall, but also of the Democracy
of the United States for President.
This reference was received with great
applause, especially by the Tammany
men. In the way of response Judge
Parker turned off the illusions to his
candidacy by relating an apt story, in
which occurred the sentence: do
they want me, or are they only shout
ing?" What he said. however, was
construed to mean that he was willing
TO be candidate for the nomination

THE SUMNER PALACE BILL.

Very little has been said about the
bill introduced by Senator Foraker to
erect a summer palace for the President
in the vicinity of Washington. 1t is
thought advisable probably not to press
the bill upon the attention of Congress
at this time. though IL that is the rea-
son it is being held back it would seem
as il it's introduction would have been
delayed until after the presidential
campaign.
No one of course is prepared to say
what the cost of the proposed summer
palace will be, though there is no doubt
that it will be millions OF dollars. II
seems TO be the determination of the
Republicans that the President shall
have a residence that will compare with
the palaces Of the rulers of greatest OF
the European states. They have not
been able to get bill through Con-

CURRENT COMMENT.

The Washington Post Qnd) says:
Senator Patterson has compared Nor
gan, Schwab and other American spec
ulative Napoleons with ]. Whitaker
Wright. 1t seems little unkind to
do thing of that sort, as Mr..
Wright cannot defend himself"
The Charleston News and Courier
says: THE Gear deserves credit for
his sincere efforts TO avert the pres
ent struggle, and we are sorry for
him because he is better than his peo-
pie, but nothing better could happen
for the world than the triumph OF
Japan"
The Montgomery Advertiser (Dem. }
says: 'Mr. Hearst is a rich man and
is stated to have said that he would
be willing to serve as President with
out the salary. That Is all very well,
but would 1t not be better to pay him
a salary and let some one else have
the Officer"
The New York Times (Dem.) says;
Admiral Evans plea for the estab-
lishment Of canteens on the warships
is receiving exactly the sort of at
tention we expected IL to exeite-angry
denunciation from the unthinking re-
formers and thoughtful consideration
from those who seek to see things as
they are and to adjust means to con-
ditions. Our national reluctance to
recognize formally the existence of evil
alone stands in the way OF needing the
Admirafs suggestion, just as 1t alone
stands in the way OF re-establishing
the army post canteen. Still, the pa
pers are talking sense on the subject,
and sense usually conquers after a
while"
