Mr. Harris has been doing editorial and literary work on the paper for a number of years, and his elevation to the past of editor-in-chief will hardly therefore be in the nature of a revolution.

Human life, in fact, seems to be loosing its sacredness, and erimes are on the m i 1-, am1.( increase. 1 ins, nowever, may oc winy apparent. There never was a time in the history of the country when news- gatherers were more eager to. record every incident, good and bad, happen ing in the country. The daily papers are especially watchful of events that will lend interest to their daily issues, and to this end gather up many items from far and near, which find no place in the weekly journals. The weeklies cannot spare room for them, and must of necessity limit themselves to matters believed to be of greater interest and value to their subscribers If they were landed down with all the mnnlprs. nil the house-break in its' and " " I 7 house burnings, the rapes, ine nan"- i i ings, the lynehings, the accidental deaths by guns, pistols, falling trees, runaway horses, sinking f ship3, col lisions at sea, &c, &c. they would have no room left for reading that would lie profitable to subscribers and their fna ilies. Besides, familiarity with horri ble recitals can be of no profit. A daily dish of wickedness and folly may serve to prepare a man for sin and bloody deeds, but it is not the food for making an innocent and useful man or woman. Tire weeklj papers of the country are therefore doing less harm than the vigilant dailies, from necessi ty it may be; but whether from the lack of space or from choice, the effect is the same. We believe it would be far better to exclude one-dialf or more of the blood-curdling recitals which now days crowd the newspapers, and fill the space they occupy with news of a scientific and moral nature. A PROFESSIONAL OPINION. J. A. Bolles, editor of the New Milford (Conn.) Gazette, in his address before the Connecticut Weekly Press Association, said it can unhesitatingly be said in be half of the country papers of to-day that they are conducted on a much higher plane, one requiring more honesty, good judgment and tact than are evinced in the management of not a few urban jour nals. The lying and sensational stories, reckless assertions "and uncalled-for, ex posures of happenings in private life which fill columns of city papers called great, are never published in successful and reputable country papers. Tho country editor mut observe, at least in a New England community, the decen cies and courtesies which mark the con duct of a gentleman, if he expects to ex ert through the columns of his paper an jwlluence that-is -broad and deep. This is equally true of weeklies in the South. JTGrippc. This disease has become epidemic in the northern cities and in some parts of the other continent. By telegraphic dispatches we notice that there are 100,000 cases of it in Philadelphia; that one-twentieth of the population of New York city has it, and that nearly every city North is more or less affected with it. Across the ocean it has iu some eases proved quite fatal, 580 persons dying in 24 hours with it in Paris. On this side very few cases of death have been re ported. The symptoms we learn are running of the eyes and nose, severe pain across he eyes and in the limbs, accompanied with high fever. 3 ' In Law the Only Security. True to its traditions and the conr stant example of its late lamented edi- or, the Charleston Aacs and Courier deplores the mob executions at Barn well, and calls for the punishment of those who have usurped the supreme power of the State. However great the excitement or Aggravation leading to such acts of violence, tbey must caune infinitely more harm than eood to the eommnni- ies in which they occur and snread still greater evil in the wide circle over which example reaches. They furnish keen and ready weapon to enemies and enfbarrass the iood offices of friends. Mob violence in this countrv during the year that closes to-day has by up means ocen conhnec to the Southern States. There have been rinla dmnf. ings and lynehings elsewhere. But because of the race problem that nec essarily enter into the Southern social and political life of our time, mob vio lence attracts most attention when occurring in the South, . and works greater mischief there than an v where eise. -I..- mf iienry VV. liradvts ast and most eloquent pnblic utterance told how, by "i ueveioping unsurpassed re sources, race troubles can Le settled and how, for that settlement through industrial progress, it is necessary to attract capital and skilled labor to the rich Squthean fields aud mines.

"Chinese thnnuVr. is the Republican device for for frightened Democrats i in the contest for eats m the Mouse. The Tribune threatens in this fashipn,: It rem ;ins to be seen whether a mi nority can dictate to the House with Mr lifPd in the e Hair. The susges tion is that Democratic members should not leave the House, so that they cannot be sent for and formally entered as present when brought back, but should simply sit in their seats and refuse to vote. That is a peaceful means of exercising their power. It will also be in order for the Speaker to opeu his eyes and see for himself whether there is a quorum present. In other words, Speaker Reed is ex pected to degrade his office to the level offraud methods in Montana, and to reverse the famous ruling of Speaker Blaine, who declared that the course now recommended would place Con gress and the country "on the br n": of afroleano." We cannot think that Mr. teed will venture to adopt a line, of action so revolutionary and so certain to arouse indignation and invite retri bution. If he does it will be clearly the duty of the Democrats to make the outrage so plain to the country that the republican party can never escape from responsibility for it. The most singular feature of the Re publican scheme is the effort to make the World's Fair legislation dependent upon submission to the plot to aug ment the Republican majority. We are told that "behind the House is the Senate and behind the Senate the President," and that it would be popu lar to kill any exposition bill the pass age of which could in any way be in strumental in defeating the . Federal election schemes of the extremists of the majority. In pJaiu terms it -is stated that under s uch circumstances the Fair would not be "likely to be held at all. This introduction of politics into the Exposition question is deplorable. It shows to what depths of degredatioh Republican management has fallen: Democrats will resent it by increased vigilance and firmness in the defense of the riirhts of Representatives. If tha Republicans wish to assume the responsibility of preventing a grand patriotic celebration because they can not use it as a political thumbsclircw, the country will place all the blame on their shoulders, aud none of those of Democrats who spurn the temptation to surrender principle for the pleasures and profits of a gala season. Ntither the proffered bribe nor the threat that accompanies it will have any other effect than to injure those who at tempt to transfer to Congress the methods of corruption and intimi datioe they have disgracefully prac ticed at the polls. New York Star. Race Conflicts. Wi.mincrton Mi,ssenrcT. The terrible slaughter of eight ne- mob is the culmination of a scries of murders perpetrated by the negroes in that section. It was a swift and aw ful retribution delivered without cere mony or form of trial. We regret to see the laws set aside, and wc deplore the evidence of violence on the part of the negroes. Of the four recent con flicts at least three were precipitated by the negroes. In fact in most instances the blacks bring on the conflicts. This is surely a cause for profound re gret. The whites may be so deeply moved that the race troubles shall ex tend and widen until really something of general race conflicts shall prevail in some of the States. The cause of recent troubles is found in the teachings of northern newspa pers and demagogues. There is not the slightest doubt of this. Under Mr. Cleveland such disturbances were very infrequent. But now the bad-bloods are rushing on death by stirring up strife. They are mistaught and en couraged to violence by northern re publicans. The Savannah News takes the right view, we may not doubt, when it says: uJs it not because they believe that they have the sympathy and support of the national Republican leaders in doing so? Have thev not plenty of reasons for such a belief? The words need by the President in his message relutive to the race problem are cer- unly calculated to encourage that be- ief. and so are the bills introduced into he present Congress to place congrec ioual elections under control of the Government.. The way in which the tepublican leaders and newspapers dis- .1 .! fuss the ruee question tends in the same direction. Under the eircu in stances, the wonder is rjofc that there are so many race disturbances, but that here are so few. The men who sow strife between the races are the worst, mostmalignantene- mies of both. The men who precipitate a conflict of races in the South deserve to share the fate of assassins. The northern rascals are doing a very devil ish work. The three engineer officers selected under an act of Congress, to choose a "deeo harbor" from certain States, have decided in favor of Galveston as being the only one that can be made to ful fill the requirements of the law. rv tl.

The other bill is to give Ihe Congress control of the elec tions for members of the House in the Sktes. "This is to concentrate power in the nanus or tne congress, li nas been for a hundred years the universal 'course that the states reguiateu inese innovators and extremists for partisan ends means. if possible to change all this! If Congress can really invade the States and take possession of bal lot boxes then it is high time for a convention of the States to be called. The Boston Post probably states the true view of the matter when it says: "The limit of the authority of Con gress in the matter is to decide as to the validity of the representatives which the people of the several States send to W ashington, anil in determin ine this ouest ion there is no. restraint upon the scope of the inquiry which may be made, it is quite a different thing for Congress to take froni the hands of the people the control of these electious and place it in the hands of federal oilicers: and it is at this point, at the very foundation of the scheme of federal mterierence, that opposition will be made to the proposed meas ure."

'Thcrc is a great effort making to have the (rovernment establish a system o water works in the great western desert in order to irrigate the soil there and render it lit for cultivation. Our neoi hereabouts, it u supposed, are rolling in surplus wealth and will be very happy to irrigate these waste places for benefit of immigrants, who doubtless would like to have the government build them out houses aud barns and furnish horse rakes and other such desirable accessories to make life tolerable iu that desolate re gion." These remarks are from the conserva tive and usually consistent Raleigh News and Observer, who adds that it is oppos ed to establishing such a system at i- ; ernmental expense, because of a constf7 tutional reason. If we mistake not the Xews & Observer has unreservedly open- red its arm.? to the Blair educational bill and has bidden the Republicans in this Congress God-speed in passing it. Does the News & Observer see no constitution al likeness between a measure by Con gress to dig ditches for individual use and a measure by the same body to build schooThbuscs and educate the children at government expenses? We should be pleased to havo the News & Observer note that both of these projects arc based upon the eoneesssion to the general government of one and the-sami-right to do what is not its constituted business. If it is for the general welfare of the Washington government to educate the youth of the country, it is for general welfare that the same government im prove the farms of the country, because improved farms as well-as educated youth are a necessity to the prosperity and happiness of this country. The News & Observer possibly objects to ditching farms in the West becausconly that certain locality is considered and on the other baud justifies its course in the Blair bill matter because the South has the great bulk of illiteracy and would be most favored in receiving pub lic money from Washington. We feel certain that the News-Observer has not looked at the inconsistency and selfish ness displayed in such a position. The attitude of certain Democratic newspa pers of the South towards the Blair bill which the Senate committee has already reported favorably, can not be ignored. The division in the House on this ques tion will be close. There aro northern and western Republicans in the House who will vote against the bill's becoming a law, and we ask, are there Democratic newspapers in the South that will en courage its representatives to cast their inlluenco in behalf of a schemo of so doubtful expediency even? Tho Blair bill is a long step in tho di rection of centralization, and centraliza tion to people who love and enjoy liber ty, is a horrible idea to think of. It must be resisted or we perish as a free people. Beware of the i ft-bearing Greeks. Eapidity of Movements. Science says a pianist, in playing a pres to of Mendelssohn, played o,5'J5 notes in four minutes aud three seconds: The striking of each of these notes, it has been estimated, involved two move- mcnis oi me linger anu possibly more. Again, the movements of the wrists, el bows, and arms can scarcely be less than one movement for each note. As twenty-four notes were played each second, and eaeh involves three movements, we would have twenty-two voluntary move ments per second. Again, the place, the force, the time, and the duration of each of these movements was controlled. All these motor reactions were conditioned upon a knowledge of the position of eaeh linger of eaeh hand before it was moved, -while moving it, as well as of the audi tory elleet in force and pitch, all of which involves at least equally rapid sensory transmissions. If we add to this the work of the memory in placing the notes in their proper position, as well as the fact that the performer at the same time participates in the emotions the se lection describes, and feels the strength .1 . 1 t . f aim weakness oi ine periormanee, we arrive at a trulv bewildered network of dilFerent impulses, coursing alone at inconceivably rapid rates, such esti mates show, too, that we are capable of doing many tmnes at once. 1 he mind is not a unit, but it is composed of hisrh- aml lower centers, the available fund of attention beinir distributable amonsc them.

Owing to a broken J pulley the tests, winch were to have be gun this morning, were postponed until lhi3 afternoon. . There were present Dr. C.,F. Macdon- ald of Albany, Dr. A. D.JioekweH of -Sew York, afnd professor Landy of tno School of Mines, Columbia TCollege, with Harold P. Brown, the expert who fur nished the mr.chine; Dr. Fell of Buffalo, and a gentleman who refused his name and concerninc: whose tdentlty.no one would speak. 1 ho Commission would allow no re porter to be present at the tests, claiming that one who was present at tho Sing Sing tests told the public much more than the commission desired it to know. As if to make the matter as mysterious as tho execution must be under the law, the reporters were refused information even as to whether or not tests would be made on animals. Mr. Davis on Andersonville. Jefferson Davis spent the last year of his life m literary work. He wrote an article oil Andersonville for the North American Review, exonerating the Con federate government from the charge of wanton cruelty toward Federal prisoners. On the publication of his reply to Lord Wolsev, in the North American (which Mr. Davis charged was mutilated by the American editor in the interest of the English government), Mr. Davis refused to permit the North American to publish his articles on AndersonvHle unless the editor should agree to publish it unmuti- lated. The editor refused to give this pledee. Mr. Davis thereupon withdrew the article and transferred it to Belford's Magazine. It will appear in the January number. In the same issue Belford's will publish a brief autobiography of Mr. Davis, written a short time ago. A few weeks betore his death 31r.

The cause of the sad act was melan cholia, from which she has been suffei ine: for some time.
