When the Czar takes his pistol and goes for tbe Nihilists in regular cowboy style Nihilism in Russia will have to go. It is stated that the Bulgarian ladies Will not wear the Russian hang, and ;t will require a large army to make the Bulgarian men respect the Russian bang.

Mr. Henry George 6eema to be bravely conquering his well known dislike for politicians, seeing that be has become himself one of the most consummate poli ticians in the country. If Geronimo is industrious and a good Whittier he can make bis sojourn at Fort Pickens profitable if not pleasant. Curi osity seekers would no doubt pay fancy prices for his handiwork. Senator Sherman is to make onlr one speech in the PenDsvlvania campaign, and that at Philadelphia. It seems that the Pennsylvania Republicans want their campaign fiction smoking hot. The Anchor Steamship line is getting pretty well advertised for its meanness In refusing to pay for the passage of the be’ated passengers of the Anchona from Nova Scotia to New York by rail. The fire in the Ohio penitentiary the other night did not destroy Gov. Foia ker’s affidavit factory, but it is said that the manufacture of convict affidavits is no longer profitable politically in that State. Only $1 has been received at New York for the Grant monument tuna during the present month. It would have bean bel ter for the Sun to have given the SSOO that was paid on the embalming bill to the monument lund and to have let the validi ty ol the bill be settled by the courts. Congressional Candidate Greelv, ol Florida, is trying to make life a burden to the proprietors of the Jacksonville Times. Union.

It is now stated that Houk will t>e elected in the Kuoxville, Tenn., district, firuukor sober, and that he is hardly ever sober. It is to be presumed that the East Tennessee Republicans regard him as the gnost pioper representative they can find. Tai* does not speak very highly lor the Bast Tennessee Republicans. It is stated that Vermont threatens to follow the example of New Hampshire in inacting a “valued policy” law, and the Insurance men are somewhat alarmed in ennsequence. If the law should be adopted all the foreign companies will withdraw tbeir agencies and let the home companies monopolize an undesirable business. The Galveeton News intimates that the Jrtg snake stories telegraphed from the Jabice Puss country were slightly over drawn, and that the author of the stories did not go near the flooded section. It teems, however, that there was a founda tion of fact, as a few snakes were act ually seen on a high knoll that was not bverflowed. There is a rumor current In Washing ton to the effect that Blaine and Conkllng have made frb nds. and that the latter will boa strong Blaine man in the future. Thin is probably one of the current jokes of the season. When Conkllng geia to advocating Blaine for the Presidency he will doubtless he taken up as a lunatic without any delay. A California correspondent of the New Yoik Evening Post says 100 olive trees are planted to the acre. Each tree hears 10 i/alb'ns of olives, from which 3L, gal leria of oil can be made, which is worth from $6 to $lO per gallon, the total value If the crop being from $1,500 to SB,OOO per acre. That beats cotton at FJ,(,e. per pound and 150 pounds lint to the acre. The nomination of ex-Siate Senator J’om Gradv, of New York, for Congress by the Butlerwumpsof the Eighth district tuubles that smart young politician to tmerge from bi* retirement and cross I words with the celebrated Tim Camp bell, whole said to have the promise of Republican support. Politic* seems to be oomtlUerably mixed la UiHhuui just now. Proiocting the -late Treasury. ; It is stated that there is every proba- I Utility that there will be a big fight in the next Legislature overthe resolution of the I last Legislature by which the Marietta and i North Georgia railroad was given over : SOII,OOO. Well, tnere ought to be. It is difficult to see on what ground the Legis lature w os justified in turning this money over to a railroad company. When the resolution making this dona tion was before the Legislature the Morn ing News opposed it, and pointed out to the people that it was a scheme for the benefit of a few men, the most of whom are not residents of the State. There cannot be a doubt that it was fully understood, and it is, therefore, all the more strange that it finally passed. What claim had this railroad company to be relieved from the payment of over $90,- 000 it owed the State ? It pretended that the State hadn’t kept a certain agreement with it with respect to convicts, and that something was due it on that account. Well, why didn’t it get the Legislature to grant it permission to sue the State if it thought the State owed it anything? For the very good reason, doubtless, that it was satisfied that no court in the State would recognize its claim. There ap pears to be plenty of evidence to show that it got all the State could legally con tract to give it long ago. But it didn't depend wholly for a re lease from ils obligations upon any claim it pretended to have against me State. For the consideration of being released it offered to complete the road to the North Carolina line within a given time, That was a remarkable proposition. The resolution granting the release was passed aDd the State placed in the position of making a dona tion ol a large sum of the people’s money to a corporation to induce it to do what it was absolutely necessary it should do to advance its own interests. In other words, the Legislature gave more than $90,000 to a railroad company, and it didtbis, although the compa y had no valid claim against the State, without getting anything for the State that the State would not otherwise have got. Every right-thinking citizen ought to feel grateful to whoever has taken out the injunction to restrain the Slate Treasurer from carrying out the resolution of re lease. Let the incoming Legislature have a chance to inspect it and see whether or not it shouldn't be revoked. It certainly is clearly at variance with the constitu tion. That instrument prohibits the State from making a donation, and this release of the Marietta anil North Georgia railroad from toe payment of its bonds is clearly a donation. If the members of the Legislature which is soon to assemble, want to do their constituents good service let them study the facts, involved in the release of this road irom the payment of a large amount of money, closely. There is not much doubt ab >ut the conclusion at which they will arrive. If the people submit, without a protest, to the release ot the Marietta and North Georgia railroad from the payment of its bunds they might as well make up tbeir minds that the time is not distant when, through the efforts ot lobbyists, they will have to pay the bogus Bullock bonds, about which Clews <fc Cos. are now making so much noise. The 'technological School. The three cities which made extraor dinary effort* to secure the technological school were Macon, Athens and Atlanta, and it was expected that the successful city would rejoice and the defeated ones growl. That which was expected oc cured. Both Atbeus and Macon hnvehad some pretty hard things to say about At lanta’s methods ot securing the school. Of course Atlanta makes vigorous denials, and insists that she succeeded by fair and square means. All things considered, it is probable that Macon was about the best location of the three, but she didn’t get it, and there is, therelore, no use in discussing further the location question. The thing to aim at now is to make the school a success. It Is the kind of a school that is needed in this State, and if it proves to be all that it Is hoped it will, there w ill be other schools oi the same kind established in other parts ol the South. The question which ought to interest the people of the State now is not what Atlanta is going to gain by the school, but what the State and its young men are going to gain. If It is supported with en thusiasm, started rightly, managed prop erly and officered with judgment, it will be the source of an immense amount of good. It will become an institution of which the State will be justly proud. It will not be a difficult matter, how ever, to defeat in a great measure its pur pose. That can be done by withholding sufficient appropriations for its support, and by putting 'avorites instead ot com petent men in charge of it. Now that the question of location is settled let every thing that is done for it be done with no other motive thau to promote its success. If the President and professors are se lected with the view of taking care of somebody’s friends or relations, or il the contracts for building, machinery, tools, etc., are made with the view of putting money into somebody’s pocket, the in stitution will be a failure. Tbe people will take no interest in it, and if they are indifferent about it tbe Legislature will not he liberal in making appropriations. A lot of Kepubticau negroes iu New York held an indignation meeting the other night because a white Repub lican saloon keeper refused to let them drink in bis exclusive establishment. It seems that he was Captain ot an election precinct, and that he got his start running a social equality saloon. It was demanded that be be dt graded from the rank of Captain and driven Irora the party. It was stated afterwards that he was dismissed by the Republican committee and a colored man appointed in his place, but he will be al lowed to stay in the party until after the election. If Wiggins refuses to quit predicting storms and earthquakes, and, as threat ened, should be dismissed from the Ca nadian service, he should come houtb nud grow up with the country. There are a great many people down this way who would give him a warm reception. Blaine’s dramatic campaign visit to his Old home in Pennsylvania and the graves oi bis parents was In keeping with bis character.

No very satisfactory explanation of the failure of Mrs. Cleveland and other ladles to accompany the President and party to Richmond has beeu given. Explanations have been published, but it is not Known that they are the true ones. It was arranged that Mrs. Cleveland and several of the wives of members of the Cabinet should be of the Presidential party, and the Governor of Virginia had arranged for a reoeptlon. At the last moment he was notified that neither Mrs. Cleveland nor any of the other ladles who were ex pected to accumpany the President would visit Kiuhmond, ana that the President himself would not be able to attend the reception. Iu Washington it appears to be believ ed that it was decided at a meeting of the Cabinet that it wouldn’t be wise for Mrs. Cleveland to take a prominent part in a great reception with Miss Winnie Davis, the daughter of the ex-President of the Confederacy. Political reasons, it is claimed, destroyed what promised to be a very pleasant and enjoyable aflair, not only to the expected visitors but to the people of Virginia who had gathered at Richmond. Assuming that this explanation is the correct one, was not the President and his advisers altogether too timid? If the original programme had been carried out the chances are that no attempt would have been made by the Republican press to make political capital out of the affair, even if conducted on a much more mag nificent scale than was proposed. A few papers might have alluded to it, but it would have soon been passed over as pos sessing no significance whatever, it is a question if the President didn’t make a mistake. Jerseys in Georgia. Only a few years ago a Jersey cow was a curiosity in this Sta e, although there were many fine cattle of other breeds in different sections, especially in Middle and Northern Georgia. Now the little, solt-eyed beauties have secured a firm foothold, and have not only become fash ionable, but “all the rage.” The Devons and I)urhaniß and Alderneys have taken back seats, as it were, and the Jeiseys have come decidedly to the front. The organization of the Jersey Breed ers’ Association at Atlanta last year gave a fresh impetus to the Jersey craze, and the inauguration of the semi-annual sales may be considered as the formal begin ning of the Jersey era in Georgia. The second sale of the Jersey club which took place in Atlanta Wednesday last was remarkable in some respects. It was more largely attended than the first, and more Interest seemed to be exhibited, but there was a notable decline in prices. This latter fact is not due to the decline in popularity of the Jerseys, doubtless, so much as to the increased “visible supply” of ani mals, for during the last four or five years there has been a steady importa tion of vonng animals from the Middle and Western States, and the number of homebred Jerseys that haye been sold throughout the State would, no doubt, count up into the thousands. The decline in prices will more than likely stimulate the demand for Jersey cattle. People of eyen moderate means can afford to own Jersey cows at from SIOO to $l6O each, and a pretty good cow can be had for the latter sum. A good cow ought to be worth as much as a good horse, and certainly an average of $125 ought not to be considered a fancy price for a good cow, such an one as will, with tair treatment and management, feed and almost clothe an ordinary family from the sales of her milk and the butter made from it. It cannot be doubted that those extra cows that sell for from S3OO to SSOO are worth the money. It is not advisable to abandon all other breeds of cattle. We need those that are better adapted for the yoke, the sham bles, and as mere milk producers, than tbe Jerseys are, Imt as butter producers and farm yard favorites the latter are with out a rival.

The other day Vienna enjoyed the specta cle of a “vegetarian congress,” consisting of about 200 vegetarians from various German and Austrian cities.

After la king for a few minutes he suddenly ex claimed: “I have seen and heard Brambilla! The object of my life is attained!” With these words he drew a revolver, placed the muzzle to his temple, pulled the trigger, and fell dead at the feet of toe prima donna. BKIGHT BIT’S.

Mr. Webster'* Account of Bis Interview with the Holy Father. From the Sow York Tribune, In regard to his recent trip to Rome to see the Pope about the publication of his me moirs, Mr. Webster relates: "It is one of the rules of etiquette of the Vatican that whoever calls on the Pope must So in a two-horse carriage. So we went in a ouble carriage, with two footm- n and plenty of style. We passed through a number of rooms magnificently furnished and through the ranks of the Swiss Guards. Mgr. Macchi lifted a heavy leathern curtain from a door way and, passing through, my eye caught the form of a venerable per sonage with silvery white hair and dressed in white silken robes. I knew it was the Pope ann straightway made the first of the three genuflections that are to be made in approaching him. He took us each by the hand as we were preientea.

He was a great roan.’ When we were about to withdraw his Holi ness mechanically extended his hand to Mrs. Webster. Thou, recollecting himself, he withdrew it. said with a twinkle of his eye: ‘Wiil the little Protestant kiss the Pope’s ring?’ The little Protestant expressed her desire to do so, and the ring was again ex tended. *'l have made sub-contracts in Spain, Italy, France.

"Because,” replied his wife, “I have ta£en particular pains to note In all the books I have read any passage or phrase from which the words might have been culled, but i have found none, an t I am nearly convinced that you are the author.” "Well, my dear,” answered the President. “I wish to ask you this question: Did you ever in reading a book observe two words used near eaqh other that impressed you as strong and expressive, and the combination of which originated a phrase that was strik ingly terse ana at the same time new to you?” "Mover.” answered Mrs. Cleveland inter estedly. “Well. I have.” continued the President, "and if you will go to the library and on the second shelf above, and in the same position as your'Locke's Essay on the Understanding,’ you will And a novel, written by Bulwer Lyt ton, entitled, 'What Will He Do With It?’ Please bring it here.” Mrs. Cleveland Imme diately did so. “Now,” said the President, “please turn to the last chapter in book fourth, and you will find this sentence: ‘Jasper Basely sat se cure, innocuous and profoundly miserable.’ In this sentence (the first and last part of which Is tq .ally applicable to Republican officeholders and Democratic office seekers respectively) thejword innocuous struck me. an 1 reading along to chapter iv„ liook 6, in which occurs the follow lug part of a sentence: ‘Reviving thereon an art which had fallen into desuetude,’and as this was my inten tion, and the word desuetude expressive, the combination of these two particular words suited my ideas exactly, so I used them. Now you have the whole history, my dear,” con cluded the President, “and yon need not say anything about it to Dan, who is the only other person aware of it.” The Ways of Chief Justice Marshall. From tho Youth. ’s Companion, Marshall was once at market and heard a well-dresseu stranger complaining t.iat be could get no one to carry home a turkev for him. Marshall offered to carry it. and did so, accompanying him to bis house, when the stranger promised to pay him, but he dec ined and walked on. Bom**t hing about him seemed to excite suspicion of the stranger, and he said to ape son passing: “Who is that o and fellow who brought home my turkey?” The reply was: "He is the Ctdef Justice of the United Staten, and he brought home your turkey to teach you to attend to your own business.” My triend Dr. Hay related lo me ano her amusing anecdote of Marshall’s simplicity. The doctor’s father when a boy was employed as a copyist in tne clerk's office, and was sent oue m. ruing with a bundieof papers to Mar shall's residence. Having reached the square old mansion, which is still standing not far from the eapttol. he knooked at the door, and the great Judge opeued it. walking in his stocking feet, iu order not to disturb his in valid wife Ilie youth was verv much abashed at being thus suddenly confronted by tne famous Chief Justice, who gravely in vited nun to come into bis study,ana wait while lie ex mined the papers. Tile boy followed m fear and trembling, and the Judge looked over the papers. Then tie carefully folded them up, turned round to the shrinking boy, and said: "Your name is Jimmy Hay, is it not?” "Yes. sir,” fa'tered the boy. "Well. Jimmy.” continued Marshall, rising s'owly, with a friendly smile, "let us go into the backyard and have a game of marbles.” I have no doubt he enjovea the game of marbles as much as the boy;"but ms favorite pa.time was to play quoits at Buchanan’s spring, in the Western suburb of Richmond. The place was a sort of pleasure ground, used for picnics and club meetings especially of the Quoit Club, of which Marshall was a dlstmguiahed member. Alarmed Stiteumfii. From a Wanhington Special. A number of statesmen bare become alarmed at the nickni-ea and death of a num ber of their associates who bud too large waistbands. Neariy all of the excessively stout men of public life wbo live high fear apoplexy or kidney troubles, senator Palmer, of Michigan, is quite stout and has the repu tation of being < ne of the most Indolent of the Senators. He lias perfect health, however, but last summer it issue] that he thought he ought to reduce his flesh. So he sent for a noted Delroit trainer to come up and give him lioxlng lessons and put him through a course of gym nasties. The trainer called at 7 o’clock in the morning. He was not ah e to get Into the Senator's bedroom until about 9. The Senator rolled out of his bed, and for about Of teen minute* the two sparred in the most scientific, fashion. The Senator was thea rublw and down, given a massage treatment and expressed himself as highly delighted. The next morning he did not spar over five minutes. The lollowlngday the tramer found him propped up in lied. The Senator then called for some lighter form of gymnastics. That morning was spent in exercising the Senator by pulling his aims and iegs while he lav in bed. This was the end of the physical training. Whenever the trainer called after ihat the Senator would simply poke a cigar at him ami take a more comfortable position in bed as lie asked him lo talk about exercise. ll* said he like I to hear him talk on the sub ject. aud if he would come up every morning ! and give him a few practical hints while be lay un-re and smoked he thought it might do linn some good. Hut the trainer drew the Hue at the morn ng lecture and stopped worrying the Senator. “None Will Silas Thee.” From Chamber** Journal.
