" SILVER certificates of the $1 de nomination are quietly superseding the more bulky silver dollar in the money markec and currents of trade. Neither can be said to be too numerous. JUDGE G-RESIIAM , if the example made of the illustrious Allen Gr. Thur- man be repeated , will pay dearly , to the corporate powers of the land for his fearless , manly views recently express ed in the Wabash case. IT ma } ' not be a matter of moment ous issue to you , gentle peruser , but we thought we would tell you about it anyway. The sun weighs just the neat little sum of 1,910,278,070,000,000- 000,000,000,000 tons ! THE governor has appointed Dr. William M. Knapp , of York , the suc cessor of Dr. Matthewson , as superin tendent of the state asylum for the in sane. The appointment is a good one , and will give general satisfaction. "Suoil is life We like : swing a pen dulum between pleasure and pain , hope and fear , laughs and tears and they are never far apart. Extremes meet every hour. Height and depth are cor- relativesgiven : } one , you have the other. Can a man laugh loud ? Then turn around , touch a different nerve , pro nounce a woman's name , and lo ! His sobs are as sincere and deep as his laughter. ' ' THE decision of Judge Gresham , in the United States District Court , in the matter of the Wabash receivership , is considered the most important opinion ever delivered in America respecting railroad interests , and is reported as having made Jay Gould and the other railroad ghoulds feel as though there is a "God in Israel. " The nation com mends the Judge's splendid exhibition of vertebra ) . SEVERAL arrests have recently been made of persons engaged in sending through the mails and otherwise circu lating obscene pictures and books. The devil has no meaner and more despica ble agents on earth than those engaged in such work , and when caught the ears of justice should be closed to any appeal for mercy. The penalties of the law are meager punishment for such criminals who would debauch the minds of the young. The society en gaged in hunting down such miscreants is doing a valuable work for the race. Inter-Ocean. JNYE has some acquaintance with the Kansas drug store. In the course of some remarks to an inquiring correspondent he advises him to stick to the profitable drug business in pref erence to going into literature for a living , and tells him to go to Kansas if he wants "to sell the tincture of Dam nation , " a mixture "that will burn great holes in nature's heart and make the cemetery blossom as the rose. " This Kansas drug store juice , according to Bill's theory is made of "stump wa ter and future punishment , " and is a "compound which holds crime in solu tion and rum in bulk , " and that "shriv els up man's gastric economy and seara great holes in his immortal soul.
