Mr. Parnell says that Jtfr. Glad
stone is a spider. Mr. Parnea should
remember that j the spider although,
like the showman's monkey, "per
fectly docile, except when irritated,"
won't do to fool with. '
It is said that Queen Victoria's
nose is taking on a beautiful carmine
hue. The remarkable thing about it
is that this roseate development is
coincident with her marked: interest
in a new Scotch distillery.
Kentucky is the only section of
this country where a man jean be a
' life long" Whig, afterwards a Re
publican and after that a Democrat,
as the late Coll Taylor, pf Louis
ville, was, according to th dispatch
announcing his death. i
Perhaps the . speediest -and most
effective way to settle" the Parnell
problem in Ireland woul4 be to in
duce the fascinating Mrs. jO'Shea to
emigrate. Parnell would follow her,
and the great disturbing element
would be removed. Her apron
strings are stronger than his respect
for himself or h'is devotionjto Ireland.
From the reports in the press, dis
patches published this mcfrning they
are having pretty lively! times in
New Orleans if the water is high.
ft
Six victims of . the inexorable Judge
Lynch in one ;day indicates a fearful
state of public feeling. It is a con
flict between he people and a secret
society of assassins in which justice
seems to have halted, or quailed at
threats or bribes. t
The talent for advertising is de
veloped in Paris under some diffi
culties. A tobacconist? who adyer
tised the best five cent cigar in the
world, apparently oblivious of the
fact that over fiftv-five thousand to
bacconists iri this country advertise
the same xhing,- was hauled up in
court and made to pay a fine of $o0
I ft
tor "malicious intent rto deceive,
because he i couldn't lirove that it
was the best five ceni cigar in the
world. The iudsre. who had a nose,
judicially declared that was only a
one scent cigar which fshould not be
current in Paris.
VOL. XLVII. NO. 148.
If the cable dispatches in refer
ence to the conduct of Parnell be
true in leaving his seat in the House
of Commons to enjoy the company
of Mrs. O'Shea at Brighton, it is not
strange that his friends are becoming
dissaTIsfied. In his total disregard
of public opinion and of the require
ments of Common decency he pre
sumes too much on the forbearance
of his friends. The man is either
crazy or his moral sense is so blunt
ed that he has lost respect for him
self and regard for the friends who
have stood by him thus far. If only
Parnell and his friends were involved
it would not be so bad, but the cause
of a sadly oppressed, long suffering
and hard struggling country is im
perilled. Miss Josephine Medill, of Chicago,
the cable dispatches inform us, will
be the first daughter of America who
will have the honor of kissing Queen
Victoria's hand this year. . Perhaps
we have no business to meddle with
the kissing business of Miss Medill,
but it seems to us she could put
them to better use, and where they
would be more relished by planting
them under the moustache of some
able-bodied, good-looking American
sovereign. Why a level-headed,
well constructed American girl from
the meat-ropolis of the Great West
should want to be trotting up and
kissing the hand of an old woman with
two or three generations of children,
a violent temper and a red nose, we
can't comprehend.
Several cases of deaths from
trichinosis are reported in a Ger
man settlement in Iowa, from eat
ing pork which was probably not
thoroughly cooked. It isn't safe to
fool with a hog, even after it is dead.
The authority that- pronounced the
hog unfit food several thousand
years ago, knew the hog pretty well,
and it hasn't evoluted into anything
better since.

It will be remembered that it was

rhat Mr. Jno. M. Robinson, representing
the Seaboard Air Line, had negotiated
for the purchase of the Georgia, South
ern & Florida Railroad, a road extend
ins? from Macon, Ga., toPalatka, Fla.
It seems, however, that the Robinson
oartv had an option upon said line, and
Mr. Robinson and several ot his officers
made an inspection of the road and its
financial condition, with a view to pur
chase. It has transpired that the earn
injrs of the road did not co'me up to the
mark ; hence, it was decided not to ex-

NOT SOIjD OtTT YET.
Wall Street Daily News, ijlh.
There is not the slightest doubt that
the Richmond and West Point Termi
nal would be only too glad to secure
control of what is known as the Robin
son system, controlling a line from Bal
timore by steamship to Norfolk, and
from there to Elberton, Ga., and capital
ized for considerably less than its
real value. It may also be said that
there is no possibility of such a change
as long as John M. Robinson is alive.
He is the the active manager and the
property is very closely held. Here is a
company which holds the controlling
interest in four or five other lines making
up the Seaboard Air Line, which is
composed of six different railroads and
the Baltimore Steam racket Company,
operated under one management, and
yet it has a capital stock of only a little
more than a million and a quarter, and
the funded debt is not greater than that.
Further, it has incurred no onerous ob
ligations on behalf -of connecting lines.
It will readily be understood, there is no
reason why this dividend-paying prop
erty should be sold, or why it could be
purchased upon any terms that would
not be favorable to the Richmond Term
inal people. There is not in the coun
try any important and strong railroad
system which is held by the control of
so small an amount ot stoctc.

The annual statement of the Wilming

that popular institution to be in aJflour-
ishinsr condition. The number of de
positors mentioned in the statement has
increased to 2,216. and the deposits now
amount to nearly 72,000. Its affairs are
carefully and prudently managed, and
besides paying its stockholders a rea
sonable profit on their investment, the
bank is of inestimable value to the, peo
ple of Wilmington.
Those Direct Taxes.
In response to the numerous inquiries
addressed to the Governor in regard to
the distribution oi the money recently
appropriated by Congress to refund
"Direct Taxes," his Private Secretary
announces tnat he is now in correspond
ence with the Federal authorities on
this subject, and that as soon as he is in
possession of the facts he will furnish
for publication the information neces
sary to enable interested parties to pre
pare their claims. There are a good
many people in this section of the State
who will come in for a share of the
"spoils," and an overhauling of the old
receipts is now strictly in order.
