I'-f"ilent Cleveland's declaration

for Ifgiilalion' to relieve the over-luirdt-ned
Supreme Court leets wilh
genera approval. To supply the re
medial legislation needed iv.-ts on the
pre--nt Congress as an urgent and im
jierative duty. The court is now be
tween four and five years behind the
docUct, and the long delay of justice
amounts in many ca-.es to its practical
denial. Corporations and other power
ful litigants who are able to stand the
evpeiw' of prolonged litigation can
Keep ca--s pending until the contro
versy is settled b" lapse of time rather
than according to law, and the victori
ous party the one able to wear the
other out. A fresh illustration of this
fact is furnished by the litigation against
th.j Hell Telephone Company. The al
leged fraudulent patent held by this
company has only iivi.' or six years
more toVun. and by carrying it cases
up Iji the Supreme Court and prolong
ing the litigation the corporation can
maintain its monopoly for the full time
whether it has law on its side or not.
To escape this hankhip was the sole
obiect in asking the Government to in-
slit He a suit to set asiue me irauuiueiu
patent. The present condition of the
Supreme Court docket gives an enor
mous advantage to powerful litigants,
ami in manv cases makes it impossible
lor other suitors to obtain justice.
The Senate at it- last session adopt
ed the Davis bill, which aims to deal
with the ditlieultv by establishing an
intermediate court midway between
the District and Circuit Courts and the
sum-erne tribunal. The function of the
i.e'w court would be substantially th
same as the Appellate Court in the
Illinois svstem. It would diminish the
pressnre'on the higher court by cut-tin-r
off needless appeals, aiul the great
hodv of cases could be pushed to final
judgment without unnecessary delay.
This plan commended itself to the peo
ple and to the bar as much better than
the schemes for increasing the number

A PROGRESSIVE RACE.
The Great Advance of the Jfecro in Ed a ca
tion and Material Prosperity'
The negro seems destined to prove
lhe fallacy of even prediction made
concerning his future. The prophets
who foretold his 'deterioration and
gradual extinction were numerous
twenty years ago, and hare not yet
ceased to fill the public ear with their
lugubrious tales. The credence once
given them, however, has lessened
greatly us the signs of the progress of
the colored people have become more
marked and numerous. Some signifi-

are marked productions and worjhy the

the clouds. Later on in the evening
the glow imparted to the ecie of the
clouds th most remnrkaUe reileclions
of color, van ing from ochre to yellow,

At times the higher-lying cloaks formed

' The strangest experience I ever had
was at old Port William, on Governor
Island, in New York Harbor, over
! twentv vear ago. I was a Sergeant at
' the time, married, and with my young
wife bad been living on the lower eud
of the island, but the commanding oiH
cer concluded to tear it down, and I
was to select the best rooms of the non
commissioned officers quarters in the
then unoccupied fort What with my
u-ual military duties and the fatigue of
moving and placing thing- to rights. I
was pretty well tired oat when mght
came and" slept like a log My wife
was worn out. too, but did not sleep so
sound as not to be disturbed every
night by what she called "the fenniot
noi-es. that sounded just like thunder.
but I paid little atteuiion to her. think
ing that it was only the noise of passing
steamboats or the 'wash of the w3tor on
the shore. It might have been two
weeks after I had settled down that one
night I awoke suddenly from a sound
sleep with that peculiar feeling of dread
or uneasiness upon me which anses
from an unknown cause, and has been
experienced by nearly all ol u-.
"John, do you hear it now'' a-ked
my wife, when she discovered I was
awake; it sounds like some persons at
work below."
Listening for a short time, I recog
nized familiar sounds, and had I not
been po-itive that the doors were
locked, witli the key hanging on a nail
in my room. I would have sworn that
the batteries were manned by experi
enced gunner-. The quick trend of
the men as they dragged the guns in.
the ring of the rammer, the handling
of the shot that lay piled in readiness
for use. the return of the iron wheels
over the rails a.- it wa- run out of the
nort was perfect in every detail, only
lacking the words of command and
the report of the piece to complete the
illusion.
As I li-tened the uproar increased in
volume until it was imjo-.-ible for into
hear each other'.-oice-without rai-mg
them to a high pitch. The guns were
served with what seemed incredi
ble rapidity and the viry wall-, mas
sive as they were, trembled under the
hcavv artillery in continual motion.
while the ball
were rolling from one
end of the ca-ement
to the other.
striking the sides with heavy thud-.
Unable to stand thi- staK- of affairs
anv longer. 1 arose
I arose and lighting mv
lantern, took the keys along wilh a
loaded revolver, and de-ct ndiiig the
stairs as lightly as possible, reached
t.ie doors. The noi.-e al this point wa-,
if anything, more deafening than when
I left my room.
Cautiously inserting the key into the
lock I cocked my si. hooter, anil
throwing the door open suddenly, with
rai.-ed lantern and weapon pre-ented,
entered the nearest ca-ement to find it
unoccupied, save by the grim old gun
and the shot stacked in their u-ual
places. Il was the same in even" bat
tery I entered. Not a foot-print dis
turbed the thick du-t upon the lloor,
nor was there a linger-mark upon
eilher the gun or sliot. The toinpion
were in place and no carriage had
traveled over the ru-ty rail-. Con
founded even still more than 1 was
before, I returned to my room, and
was di-turbed no more that night.
The racket, however, commenced
again the following night and
was kept up with slight intermission
for a month. My accountof this-ingnlar
disturbance was met with je-ta and
laughter from my felIow--oldier-. which
they mbdiiivd, it is true, when I cor
roborated it by my wife, but then only
so far as to declare that it wa.- a scheme
on our pari to get removed from un
comfortable quarters to one of the new
quarters then about completed. Nettled
at their taunts I vowed that if ever the
noises commenced again I would lmv
other witnesses to them, and I did not
have long to wait, for about one mouth
after I was awakened by the phantom
pinners, liiis time 1 pa-sed out ovir
the draw-bridge, and, going to the
men's quarter - awakened a Sergeant
by the name of Smith poor fellow' he
served with me twenty years and i
now in th in-ane asylum at Washing
ton and much against his will made
him accompany me to the scene. After
standing listening to the racket until
Smith's face was as white as a sheet,
and he was trembling from head to
foot. I threw open the door. Smith
always declared that for a m.imenl he
saw the gho-tiy crew at their places,
but I could detect nothing, nor could I
ever discover any cau-e for the disturb
ance. Some months after leaving the island
I learned lhat during the Mexican war
an artillerv company drilled with lh'se
guns some time Ik fore they left for
Mexico and that they wer nearly all
killed in battle. I -nppo-e it mu-t have
been a freak of theirs to have their re
unions in the-e casements and practice
with their old friends, the guns. Min
