Somebody remembers that Morse
once predicted that talking through a
hundred miles of wire would become
common, and that ocean steamers on a
voyage would keep up' communication
electrically with the shore. The first
prediction having come true, the second
is hopefully regarded , though regarded
as wild when made.

It is the opinion ot Prof. Hodge of
Princeton, who has studied the subject
carefully, that Sir Moses Montefiore
has gone to the Christian heaven, al
though he was a devout Jew. Prof.
Hodge argues the orthodox belief to be
that God may "lead a person outside
the Church to .Essential truth, inde
pendently ot human agency,11 and may
"save him. although' his relation to
Christ may be so obscured by peculiar
conditions as to elude our recogni
tion.11 Gen. Grant's drying utterances in re
gard to the North and the South have
been made public through bis son, Col.
Fred Grant. They were read by Col.
Grant at the reunion of the veterans ot
Gen. Grant's-old regiment, the 21st Il
linois, on Tuesday night. They are as
follows. Col. Grant speaking:
I do not intend to make you a
speeeh. for I have not been trained as
a public talker.. I have here a docu
ment that I would like to read you. It
the last line written by my father opon
matters pertaining to thu war. and has
never before been made public. As ho
entered into the war with you for hi3
first companions, and as he always
spoke of your regiment with affection
ate interest, it is fitting that you
should be the first to hear his parting
words. This is what he wrote npon
the pages I hold here : "I feel that we
are on the eve of a new era. when there
is to be great harmony between the
Federals and Confederates. I cannot
stay to be a living witness to the cor
rectness of this phophecy, but I feel it
within me that it is to be so. The uni
versally kind feeling expressed for me
at a time -when it was supposed
that each day would prove my last,
seems to me the beginning of the an
s wer, to Let us have peace.1 The ex
pression ot these kindly feelings were
not restricted to a section - of country
nor to a division of people. They came
from individualities; from all do
minionsProtestant, Catholic and
the Jew, and from the various
societies of ihe land, scientific,
educational, religious and otherwise.
Politics did not enter into the matter at
all. I am not egotist enough to suppose
all this significance should be given
this matter because I was the object ol
it. But the war between the States was
very bloody and very costly. One side
or the other had to yield principles they
deemed dearer than life before it could
be brought to an end. I commanded
the whole of the mighty host engaged on
the victorious side. I was, no matter
whether deservedly so or not, a repre
sentative of that side of the controversy.
It is a significant and gratifying fact
that the Confederates should have join
edjheartily in this spontaneous move. I
bope the good feeling inaugurated may
continue to the end.11

The weather of the last few days has
been such as to induce chills and fevers,
and a good many are afflicted with
those complaints.
There was one case of disorderly con.

If these cool nights should continue,

Quarantine Them.

port, and we are glad to know that the
proper authorities have taken the .mat

neither vessel to come up to the city
until she has been thoroughly disin
fected at the quarantine station.
Montreal has been declared an infected
port on account ot the alarming preva
lence of small pox in that city, and ail
Spanish ports are in the same condition
from the cholera scourge which has
been devastating that stricken country,
and our authorities are acting wisely in
taking such steps as shall . prevent the
possibility of the introduction of either
disease into our city or country. '

The Heathen Chinee.
Wung Ling, or "One Lung," as one
of the incorrigible printers of. thi3 city
calls the Chinee laundryman on Second
street, was in difficulty tcrday
and was a "heapee maddee." It
seems that a colornd woaaan went into
his place and asked him to buy some
grape3, which he declined to do. She
then asked him if he didn't want to
buy some rats, which roused his ire
and he slapped her in the face and
pushed her out of doors- lorthwuh
she went toJustice Joe Hill's and got a
wan ant for Ling'3 arrest, but the latter
wouldn't be arrested by th3 colored
man who was sent to serve the warrant.
He, however, quietly submitted to ar
rest by one of the policemen and was
taken before Justice Hill, by whom a
fine was imposed which, together with
the costs, amounted to thirteen dollars
and forty-five cents. This Ling refus
ed to pay saying that he would see the
"big man," meaning Mayor Hall. The
matter was finally adjusted by Ling
paying about six dollars. This is the
substance of the affair as near as we
could gather it.
