There is in tact no class that would not be instructed and in terested and as we said before, no one can afford to stay away. It will give you broader views and teach you more about the great resources of our com mon country than you may gain in a life time otherwise. The mysterious murder of Hose Ambler at Stratford, Conn., bids fair to become aa noted a case as that of Jennie Cramer, ia the same State, which created so much, excitement last year. The circumetanees of the two difer In that Mies Cramer was a young and inexperienced girl, dishon ored and murdered by the man who took her from her happy home. The woman Ambler, infatuated with her love for one William Lewis, had de serted her huaband and was accustom ed to make visits to his house at night. On the oae she met her death she was returning at a late hour from one of those visits and it is supposed that tho man Lewis, tiring of her attentions, did the deed himself. At any rate, the coroner's jury, after several weeks of investigation, have so declared and Lewis will be tried for the offence. The dishonoring and murdering of wo men seems to be a pastimo peculiarly attractive lp tho average Yankee lib ertine. Ralph Sheldon, ex Land Register oi Kentucky, whose term of office ex pired three weeks ago, has finally de livered up the keys to' the Register elect, Cecil. What induced him to do so was uo doubt this suggestion in tho Covington Commonwealth: "If Shel don, the usurper, is physically the big ger man, let Cecil arm himself and drive Sheldon from the office as a roan would drive a burglar from his home." But Sheldon alleges that in the suit that Norvel has brought against Cecil he will be able to prove all that he claims as to the bargain betweon him and Cecil. Mr. Sheldon can now go into his hole and draw it in after him, with the satisfaction of knowing that he has made a pretty good sized ass of himself. TnE speech of Fred Douglas on tak ing the position of presiding officer of the colored convention is about as mean a spirited production as could be imagined, and is calculated to stir up instead of healing the predjudiees that he claims to exist towards his race. He demands not only civil but social equality and paints with a fiery brush the xlleeed wrongs that his color is subjected to. The objects of the meet ing, whatever they are, will fail of fruition ifsueh counsel a he gives It b quite refreshing in these days of silly sentimentatism to read that eight negro ami six white thieves were given 10 to 25 lashes each on their naked backs at New Castle. Del., this week. It seems peculiarly appropriate that a dirty thief should be given the humiliating punishment of a public thrashing and if our law-makers were net arrant eewarde they would have adopted such a kw long ago. Crime would bo redHsd and hundreds of thousands ef deUan saved to the treas ury every year. A clerk at the Opera Hotel, Lou isville, killed himself Wednesday, The good sews that there is one of these iaeoleat rascals less will be received with pleasure by all who have had eeasloa to visit Louis vUle meetly.

There is nothtHg more interesting to the aver age man than the proeeas of printing, ami in no ether branch of business has there been greater Improvements than in it. "Unbrr the act ef Congress, Jhrs, 1836, provrdtag for the distribution of the then surplus revenue among the States, the Federal Government owes the State of Kentucky 8477,910.13. If the State could get the mosey it would do the most good to appropriate it to the promotion of common educa tion." And it would be much better than asking Federal aid for common schools. The OireaitMro Mestcngcr siys: I U said tuat (Jol U.air turner is qui etly informing his friends in the First district that he will be a candidate for Representative iu (Jongr ij again next year. If the Democrats run Judgo John R. Grace against him again, tho old renegade will wish that he had re tire! while he was in luck. An exchange puts in thiswise. And now it turns out that it was not Mary Anderson, but Dr. Ham Griffio, who snubbed tho Prince of Wales. Dr. Griffin means to preserve his fair fame unblemished if it breaks a trace. In this connection we may inq lire, what has a poor step father but his name to defend him? Senator Voorhees thinks Mc Donald the coming man for Presiden tial honors. The Holman boom will be evanescent. He is confident that Indiana will go democratic in 1884 and equally as certain that Hoadly will bo elected governor of Ohio with a demo cratic Legislature. We hope the Sen ator is a prophet. Mayor Jacob is the handsomest man in Louisville and had he gone over the State and shown himself , he would be occupying the gubernatorial chair at Frankfort. Mr. Walter C. Emerson now pre sides over the Kentucky and Southern News columns of the Courier-Journal, Judgo C. E. Kincaid having resigned. The New York democratic conven tion met at Buffalo yesterday and the prospects for a harmonious meeting were decidedly promising, A pupil in on English school when asked to define the word "buttress' wrote out its meaning. "A female who makes butterl" Mr. Mills Smith, of Green county, Va., raised bis hand the other day to make oath that bis tax list was correct and that instant fell dead of heart dis ease. The dullest thing in New York at preeeut seems tp be money. The rate of interest is 2 and 2 per cent., witha supply greatly in excess of the de mand. Money is dearer in Paris and London than in New York, and yet goid is flowing in. Half a million ar rived on Saturday, and two and a half millions within tho last three weeks. Sorghumjfor fattening cattle is high ly recommended by Dr. Kedsie, of the Michigan Agricultural College. It has been found by some who have tried it, he says, to possess wonderful fattening properties and to produce beef of very superior quality. He adds that the sorghum must be fed cautiously at first The seeds ot tho cane are equal in value, pound for pound, to oats or corn. Curiosity-lovers and thosescientifio ally inclined may be much gratified to know that napkins are now being made of spun glass, a luxury which few persons will deny themselves at the reasonable price of 8100 per doz en. They are of a delicate pearl col or, about the size ot an ordinary breakfast napkin and almost as plia ble as silk. The filling consists of minute glass threads, crossed by silk chains; and the fringe of glass fibre is about two inches long. A noticeable feature of ocean travel is the uniform time made by some of the fast steamers. On each of two trips the steamer Alaska made the passage from Queenstown to Sandy Hook in seven days, two hours, and seven minutes. On a third trip the time required was seven days and twenty-six minutes, and on a fourth seven days and forty-seven minutes, On her last trip she made the remark' able speed of eighteen miles an hour for two consecutive days. A well-posted treasury official gives it as his opinion that there are at least fifteen million trade dollars ia the New York banks aad depositories, aad that before Congress meets the amount will be increased to twenty millions. He says that the syndicate of specula tors who have taken bold ef the trade dollar will more oa Coagress with a powerful lobby next winter, and that there is 12,000,000 or 2,600,000 ia the job if they ean induea the government to legitimfote the coin.

The ualuckiest man in Georgia lives in White county. In attempting to cross the river in a bateau it eapsiaed ami threw him into the water. Try ing to reach the boat again, his foot eaught in a snag and wrenched it, los ing at the same time a 820 watch, his hat, a shoe, and the boat. He finally reached the shore, and was hobbling across a field when a large ferocious bull started for him. Reaching a tree, he climbed it lively enough to escape the bull, but also lively enough to get into a hornet's nest Tho hor nets objected, and he sprang to anoth er limb, which broke, letting him iall to the ground, fracturing his wrist.

The last election deraonatrated that there are but 40,000 whits republicans in the Stale, and 17,000 of them refused to Tote for the "nigger." Col.
