WATEBSOITS GOOD WORDS. Kentucky's Democratic Sage Approves Harrison's nomination Tlm Mplematle Boloctlomo Hlfkljr Cammosied-Tke Fiseldom« Wet ting In Astmlo Party Work In Um Way at Apfelatanta Henry Watterson, the democratic apos tle of Kentucky, sod the editor of the Louisville Couriefloumaljuja editorially of Harrison's diplomatic appointments: There la no denying that the adminis tration la getting In some very astute po litical and party work in its appointments to office. With the exceptions of Wane maker and Tanner, Mr. Harrison, whilst selecting active and orthodox republicans, of the most pronounced description, hsa shocked no popular or moral sensibility, but hsa rather impressed the country with the idea that he la a clear headed, well intentioned man, working with great intelligence within his own party lines. The batch of DIPLOMATIC BOMIBATIOBa sent to the senate yesterday completes the list of foreign places of importance to be filled, and though containing some surprises it will on the whole give pretty general satisfaction. The nomination of Robert Lincoln as minister to England is at once a surprise and a ten stroke. Taken in connection with Fred Grant for Vienna, it conveys an appeal to the young repub licans of the period which cannot fail to have its effect. Both these eons of illus trious sires are American gentlemen with out reproach and fully qualified person ally and officially to represent the coun try handsomely and adequately in the old world. In bringing the Journalism of the party to the front and stimulating that important branch of the party service, the president shows both wisdom and aa gacity. xo arms mama to fbabcb could hare been found in any walk of life than Whitelaw Reid, and no fitter consul general to London than John C. New. Now we hare Murat Halstead to Germany and Tborndyke Rice to Russia. Mr. Rice is the editor of the North Amiri can Review, a man of many accomplish ments and large fortune, whose knowl edge of European life and affairs id very great, and has not been obtained by the sacrifice of Americanism. The selection of Mr. Halstead for Berlin is a particu larly happy one. He is already well known to Germans. In the Franco-German war he was the companion and guest of Von Moltke, met the great chancellor famil iarly and often, and wUI be no stranger to the court to which be is accredited. He is personally both a handsome and bril liant man, and wUI appear nowhere with out distinction. THI BEST OS THE AITOOmiEIffS •re all in the same line, particularly that of Patrick Eagan, which at this moment moat be very gratifying to the Irish on both sides of the water. It costa os noth ing to say these things. The contest be tween the democratic and republican par ties for years hence will turn upon irrec oncilable antagonisms oI opinion. In the meantime it is of interest to all men to hare the business of the country, par* ticularly our representation abroad in the hands of capable and good men, as it can never be of interest to any patty to raise false personal issues or deny politically that measure of Justice which socially no one would think of withholding. All the appointments we have named are indi vidually excellent, and from a purely par tisan standpoint made with admirable discretion and keen foresight. Mfcf tf lu.

Editob llkkald:—l have received your zoological communication deairing espe cial information regarding the fabulous hydra that now reclines on its ventral section in a carbohydrated solution in an arsenal on that part of Commercial street, in the dty of Corvallis, which is nearest the Occident. * Hercules hibernated a happy man; bis last somniferous condition was one to be admired. He paand from this mundane sphere to the abode of the gods with the greatest composure imaginable. His ter restrial existence might well be compared with that of a Newfoundland puppy only eight days old. He had the belief of the entire populace concurring in his views in the idea that be had extinguished the hydra—the terror of the land-lubber as well as the old tar of those colonial days. But, ye gods and little fishes I were he to come down from the elysian fields to night and open bis eyes to-morrow, the ninth day of his probationary state, in Henkle A Bier’s ammunition parlors, be would certainly wilt like a cabbage plant that had been attacked by a grub worm, in the hot sun. lam confident he would return to bia old friend, Neptune, and de mand an immediate settlement—or else he would sneak off to Canada for a va cation. > Pull many a fern of parett rap wrens The dark, nn fathomed caves of ocean bear; Poll many a soal, with instinct keen. Is dally seeking this sea-serpent rare. (Anon.) To the ancient toiler* of the deep, this fabulous acanthropterygian monster was a holy terror. In the minds of the Im aginative Greeks, many conjectures were made regarding its immensity. Many had attacked It and been immediate digested; but when it assaulted Hercules, it soon found out that it had bit off more than It could chaw. One glance at its assailant’s eye, and its alimentary canal was imme diately inverted, and tbe flow of gastric and pancreatic Juice paraliaed it, ao to •peak, for the time being. But the serpent of to-day la not so easily influenced In its actions towards genut homo. It does not flee from the wrath to come like a hen coop in a cyclone, prob ably because we have no Hercules to bring into tbe arena, and, since Sullivan’s igno minious defeat, we are are at a loss to find one who can adequately compromise with its royal highness whether it shall be Marquis of Queenabnry or the Ameri can Chib that shall predominate in a set to with soft gloves and bare knuckles. But lam begging tbe qncetion. Rats is s phrase common to all Americana; but the very name of a sea serpent startles the natives round about quits a scope of country, varying directly as tbe square of the distance, and tbe one now In position for tbe public to feaat their eyes on is a treat, and don’t forget to mention It. He <T) Is a monstrosity, tbe length thereof being about four cubits and tbe height at rear of head being about one and one-half bands, little more or leas be the same. His #ge la unknown, but Judging from tbe number of teeth which are in hla mouth, be mu* be a lew days younger than Noah or Sham were at tbe time of their departure. The head resembles that of tbe antiquated mud cat, and, as tbe ice of many winters has settled on hia brow sod eye-lsahea, hia eyes bsve become deep tested, end when he appears to look at yon, his gsae is not unlike that of s condemned game-cock after tbe tourna ment above referenced. Hia optical organs have not their youthful vigor, owing prob ably to tbe effect of his present bath. The ears have not yet produced an effect on me, as they are Incompetent, irrelevant, and not of tbe lames of this cats. Tbe characteristic of hia acanthopterygian na ture extend from tbe brow of his cranium to the extremity of bis posterior Append age; at intervals, midway between his ventral and dorsal segments, there ex tends a row of indentations which resem ble the port-holes on tbe Spanish armada. Those rays of light which are visible on hia sides are the greeniah-grav of the spectrum, but the belly is without color. Words are inadequate to delineate the wonderful combinations of this mam of fleab, bone and cartilage. Yon have but to see to believe, and If ypu will believe whit you Me, yon in O. K.

Just imagine the last named article to bo about six feat long and with a hand ala laches through, the body taper ing off from tbe head to the tail, with a hldsous daath-Uke look, and I think yon will barn a pretty fair photograph ol Em said sen serpent.
