THE Emperor William has accepted
tbe resignation of Bismarck from
the presidency. , of the cabinet , and ap
pointed a successor , Bcetticher , the
Prussian minister of state.
THE metropolitan press is expressing
sonic doubt of the propriety of the ac
tion of the assistant postmaster general ,
'Frank Hatton , in changing the name
of a Tennessee postoffice from "Dam-
phool" to "Blizzard. " Probably each
editor that'kicks ' thinks it is a personal
affront to himself. We all have our
weaknesses/and the weakness most com
mon is the .yearning to have your name
prepctuated in a postoffice directory.
THE national anti-monopoly conven
tion , which assembled in Chicago , last
Thursday , nominated B. F. Butler of
Massachusetts , for president. They al
so got up a platform of platitudes. It
is ridiculous that a body of men like
this should allow themselves to be duped
by such a politician as Ben. We cannot
aocount for it only on the theory that
this is a phenomenal year in politics as
well as 'weather and finances. There
must be something in the atmosphere
which gets away with men's judgments.
-leaving our shores at San Fran-
'cisco the queen of Tahiti unburdened
toefmind to a reporter of a paper there.
She has been very well pleased with her
trip , but acknowledges that she delayed
landing , at 'New York , and stood off
shore in the steamer till the last moment
to escape the pestiferous swarm of
New YorkMnterviewers who worried
the life out of-her on her first passage
through the city. The queen was
ravished with the beauties of Chicago
and the singing of Patti but Paris was
her paradise.
A COLORADO man stole a pair of socks
the-other day and was waited upon by a
committee of miners , who gave him a
whipping at a telegraph pole with an
hour's notice to leave the country. The
leader of the vigilantes explained in a
card to the local press that they did not
care anything for the financial value of
the hosiery , and but little about the sur
reptitious manner in which the offender
obtained possession of them. But it was
hot * iron to their souls to see him bring
reproach upon the hardy manhood of the tlf
state by his effeminacy. > f

AN Omaha policeman , who is describ et ;
ed as a very vigilant and efficient officer , th ,
saw a man standing on the corner the th
other day. The man's appearance was an
that of poverty , and the cop concluded se
to take him in. The man ran away and th .
the vigilant , etc. , chased him vigor Biwi
ously. Another vigilant and efficient wi
citizen saw the race and headed off the at
fugitive , cracking him over the head at
with his billy. The victim fell , and
waspounced upon by the valiant peelers.
He fought wildly , but was finally taken he
to the cooler a mass of bruises and
f
rags. Then the discovery was made
that he was a harmless , * half-witted U
fellow , who had worked in the same
hotel for seven years. He was of course in
til *
turned .loose , and "the circumstance is
reported in the J3ee as a good joke on e <

inmtigatiDiin the. af-
of 'the btnkropfc 'firm-of * Grant &
ward ficcm to indicate that the entire
business of the two managing members
of the concern , Ward and Pish was to
fleece the Grants and their family
connections and personal triends. The
indications are , also , that in that laud
able aspiration they have been entirely
successful. The debts of the firm , at
first reported to be in the vicinity of
ten millions , appear upon examination
to largely consist in fictitious claims
of "profits" that had no existence except
on doctored books kept by Ward , and
it is now said" that the actual indebted
ness will not exceed three millions. The
way Grant was swindled , when the
managing members knew that the bu'w-
ble was about to collapse , is one of the
most disgraceful features of the affair.
On the representations of Ward and Fish ,
Grant was induced to go to Vanderbilt
and borrow $150,000 on his own paper
and turn it over to the conspirators.
It is to pay thatindeptedness that Grant
has turned over his residence , his- two
houses in Washington and his St.
Louis farm , and further pledged himself
that Vanderbilt shall not lose a dollar
through him.
THE stock jobbing and gambling in
New York have culminated in the down
fall of some of the .banks there that
have been engaged in it , and there is ,
of course , a flurry on Wall street. But
the time has gone by when these flurries
can effect the general business of the
country. With a solid coin basis , and
no wild cat currency in circulation , the
values of actual property are not affected
by the bulls and bears to any appreciable
extent , and no general trouble naed be
anticipated. Prices are already down
to bed rock , and the shrinkages are all
in the values of speculative shares and
stocks. No matter how many specula
tors go to the wall as the result of the
cessation , of the supplies from the"lambs
from the country"that used a few years
ago to contribute to the wealth of the
New York.brokers , the real wealth of the
nation is not affected , and legitimate
,
business will not be interfered with.

TltE Muhdi is an economic general
and pays his army at the rate of forty
cents a month per head , and it is able
to subsist-on that , finding itself. This
makes his 40,000 men cost him about
$16,000 a mouth. As he fell heir to
$2,000,000 when he captured Obeid
and Burra , he has funds on hand now
for a ten years campaign. Europe could
profit more by making him professor
of military economy at a large salary
than in trying to use him up in Soudan.
When he commenced to fight , the
false ; prophet had no arms for his fol
lowers ( but the spears and shields of
the country. But he has captured from
the Egyptians 40,000 Remington rifles ,
sixty cannon and 2,500,000 pounds of
ammunition , besides other arms not
enumerated , and.is . well fixed from the
arsenals of his enemies. As a self-sup
porting warrior he beats the record of
all the generations.
IT is confidently asserted that the
British government is negotiating with
Stanley Africanus , with a view of
Inducing him to accept the mission to
treat with El Mahdi and take the place
General Gordon , who has , in the
opinion I of the cabinet , failed to carry
jut the programme entrusted to him. n
is said that when itjs safe to 'make Nfc
he avowal it will be found that Gordon's fcg
nstructions were to avoid hostilities ai
ind come to terms with the -false propli- scbi
t. It is believed that he lias "muffed
0
he whole business , " 'as a member of al
.he government tersely expressed it , tcbi tc
tnd complicated matters instead of
icttling them. If Stanley can procure
.he necessary leave of absence from his
Belgian employers he might go in and
vin where Gordon failed. He would elbe
be
least make a very original attempt tedi
diplomacy. - rim diri

from Lima to Dayton , a distance of
seventy-four miles in sixty-six minutes ,

manding virtues ofjCato , but regard
with a friendly eye that obscure and
unworthy man , Cneius Septilius ? "
"Because , " quoth Titus Trombonius
