LANCASTER, MAItCIl 17, 1885. The Trouble With Thompson. The struggle for the il;ice of internal revenue commissioner could net have ended In any ether way than in the defeat of the Kentucky candidate, while this adminis tratien proposed te retain the respect of the community. There is no occasion te repre sent the choice of Mr. Miller as tlie triumph of Mr. Randall or the defeat of Mr. Carlisle, and as the upsetting of free trade by the tariff chariot, rave for the fact that Mr. Hnndall,whe favors protection, opposed Mr. Thompson, of Kentucky, while Mr. Car lisle, of Kentucky, favors him. Mr. AVat AVat tersen, the friend of Mr. Carlisle, and the extravagant friend of free trade, seems te see in Mr. Thompson's overthrew the ever threw of Mr. Carlisle and his doctrines. He sees tee much. Mr. Carlisle made a mistake iu supporting a man for an imior imier tant ellice which lie was altogether un fit, in the opinion of the country, te fill. Mr. Carlisle and his candidate came te grief because of the candidates conspicu ous unfitness. Mr. Thompson never had a shadow of a chance of being selected for commissioner of internal revenue by a presi dent of ordinary common sense and com prehension. Mr. Thompson lias been conspicuous for sheeting men without just cause. The president recalled the man by this fact when he was named te him, asking whether he was the Thompson the man-killer ; these Thompsons have se common a name that it is really necessary te describe them with an attribute te identify them, and it does net de simply te siell them with a p. The president had only the general knowl edge which the country has of the Thompsons, but lie had no trouble in identifying this Kentucky specimen as the killer : who has become nete rieus net only because of his man-slaying proclivities, but because of his having been chosen te Congress despite them and de spite the general conviction that he was . guilty of murder. Such a man the presi dent has no use for in ellice. The only place in which the country tarn be justly asked te maintain him is in jail. .And Mr. Thompson was particularly in eligible te the internal revenue ollice Ijc cause he represents whisky constituents. Mr. Carlisle's advice that he be put there was net valuable for a like reason. The Kentucky idea upon whisky is no mere sound than upon murder. It is that there should be free trade In both. Tin's Kentucky idea would make the in dividual Kentuckian the judge of when his whisky tax should be paid and when his friend should be shot ; which doctrine is somewhat in contravention of the current idea that taxes should be paid annually and citizens should be executed by the law. Thisseemste be the question raised be tween Kentucky and the rest of the coun try by the presentation of the Kentucky champion, Phil. Thompson for office by the solid state. It involved the discussion of the question whether Kentucky or the rest of the country is sensible. Naturally the president, coining from tlie part of the country which still deems murder te be a crime and that a tax en whisky should be collected when due, quickly lifted up Mr. Phil Thompson by his breeches and set him outside in tlie cold ; where he will stay ;. and along witli him all tlie distinguished gentlemen of Ken tucky who wish te tie themselves te the pe culiar ideas which he se clearly represents. ditieif of "past glory, nor the confidence of present strength. HI. Patrick's Birthday. The years roll around' with monotonous regularity, bringing St. Patrick's pay in their train, and usually in the company of such bad weather that few recur te the llerce controversies that were went te take place ever the patron Balnt of the Emerald Isle. Lengthy polemical discussions of the question whether.he was a lteman Catholic, an Episcopalian, tlie precursor of Jehn Knox, or merely a myth, were ence burn ing questions te seme of the great and geed men who kept the midnight oil aflame In mastering fine points in theology. Uutnll this has passed away, and the world has teltled down te the hclief thai St. Patrick was one of the greatest evan gelists since the days when the Apostles trod the shores of Galilee in tlie company of their dlvlne Master. Tlie kindly flgure of this saint looms up out of tlie semi- barbaric darkness of the fifth century as a lamp whereby a whele nation's feet were guided. "When the task that was tinder taken by St. Patrick is considered, its re sults are phenomenal. He entered a stranger en an isle that was filled witli warring chieftains.- He addressed a race "that was possessed of the impetuosity that belongs te splendid physique and high ani mal spirits, who loved a fight for its own sake, and who seemed far removed from the possibility of subjecting themselves te the literary penace of "with blinded eyesight poring ever miserable books." Put from the day he arrived at Tani te thetlmehelald down his earthly burden at Downpatrick, a revolution wins caused in the Irish character. Leve of learning and a deep leaven of religion was mingled with the inimitable wit and geed hearted hearted nessef the Celt, making tlie typical Irish man a prince among men. This was the result that St. Patrick chiefly attributed te bring about when .he converted te Christi anity " tlie barbarous island beyond tlie Iccian sea.''

Ne Time tu Obtain the Anient of the Ameer uf Afghanistan te the Term of tlie Arrange mentThe Kiplnnatleu Disappointing te the Member of Parliament. MEDICAL. pnn nun cm w w u f i b it he e w w w vr linn krh e e ww ww luH it00 w 8 S hf Mr. Uayard's Successor. In the natural order of things ex-Attorney General Geerge T. Gray, of 'Wilming ten, Delaware, has been chosen te succeed Mr. Bayard in the Senate. Mr. Gray has always been Mr. Bayard's close personal and jielitical friend ; he lias looked out for his interests at home and has twice, we be lieve, made the speeches nominating him in national conventions. Mr. Gray is net only a political leader in their common state, but lie is a lawyer of very high stand ing at tlie bar, and a gentleman of unblem ished character and social accomplish ments. He comes te tlie Senate under the disad vantage of being contrasted witli a gentle man of his predecessor's brilliancy and long public experience, and though he may net prove as eminent in that body as Mr. Bay ard, he will be a safe and useful member, ami will de no discredit te the historically strong line of senators which this littte state lias produced. The anticipated prolongation of the strug gle for Mr. Bayard's vacated seat did net ensue. The legislature of Delaware being entirely Democratic it was expected that a dead lock in the caucus would be transfer red te tlie joint balletiugs of the legisla ture; but Mr. Gray, happily, was nomina ted en tlie second ballet. His leading and strongest opponent, Mr. Clias. 11. Lere, is already in the Heuse, wliere he can serve his statu witli as much credit and efficiency if net witli the same dignity as en the fleer of the Senate. Tlie ether candidate, Win. J, Martin, is an ex-member of Congress and was a candidate for clerk of the Heuse In the organization of 1883. He represents the lower end of the state, and considering that Senater Saulsbury hails from that section, and that Nowcastle county lias ever half tlie imputation of Delaware, there is further fitness in Mr. Gray's select, ion. The Delaware Democracy, having prop erly discharged this resjiensibility, new need te go en and give their state that fair and equltable npportieninent which they have premised ; for if they let their pledges go t) pretest neither tlie Bayards nor Grays nor Satilsbtirys can save them ; nor the tra- SiiMcient Reasons. It is earnestly te be hejied that Mr. "N'at "N'at tcrsen will be disapieiutcd iu ills expecta tion that the appointment of Mr. Miller, of West Virginia, te be commissioner of in ternal revenue, is te be claimed " as a tri umph for Mr. llandall ;" and hence there may be a iostietiement of the fateful day when the Louisville Ceuncr-ibtiriiul will declare war upon the "open alliance" of Cleveland and Kandall. While it is manifestly true that Mr. Kan dall preferred Mr. Miller's apjtuintiuent te Mr. Thompson's,!!!!!! that Mr. Carlisle pre ferred Mr. Thompson's appointment te Mr. Miller's, it does net appear that the president and his secretary of treasury wcie guided by any such improper motive as the desire te confer a personal favor or the de lights of a " triumph " uien either of these distinguished gentlemen. Against Mr. Miller there seems te have been no valid objections ; he is represented as a man of unquestioned ability, high in tegrity and proved popularity. Against Mr. Thompson there seems te liave lieen very serious objections; and the Zealand clamor with which lie was pressed by a noisy faction, who would hear te nothing but his nomination were just tlie kind of influences te have- raised suspicion about and te have compassed tlie defeat of a let ter man. Tell the Truth. The Philadelphia Ittcenl, which generally tries te be fair and frequently succeeds, discredits its record by at tributing ex-Congressman Pest's defeat ler re-election by nearly live thousand last fall te tlie fact that he " se shamefully mis represented tlie Democrats of his dis trict." The Ruvrd is net se ignorant of sUile politics as net te knew that the district which Mr. Pest comes from is one of the most decidedly Republican districts of the state ; that even when the Democrats car ried tlie state by 10,000 plurality Pest's election wasowingtethe accidental circuni circuni sfance of there being two Itepublican candidates iu tlu district, of whom the irregular candidate get mere votes than the party nominee ; and that last fall Mr. Pest received nearly a thousand mere votes than in 1BS2, that his vote was 418 mere than Mr. Cleveland's in his district and the plurality of 'his opponent was 553 less than Blaine's in tlie same counties. The Kccettl may have some reasonable objections te Mr. Pest ; and in view of the mention of his name for high office under the administration, it would de well te state them ; but they are net te be in ferred from tlie figures of Mr. Pest's can didacy in his own district, and the Iitcenl will make nothing by " shameful misrepre sentation " of plain facts.

Tlie statement of this agree ment, the premier admitted, was based en the Interchange of communications between Russia nnd fin gland, carried en through Sir Kdwerd Thornten, llritlsli ninliaasader at St. Petersburg.

De Glcrs, Russian prinie minister, indorsed as correct the statement made by Mr. Gladstone ofthe agreement reached with Hussia. As yet no repiy had been received te Saturday's message. Continuing, Mr. Gladstone said thore had been no tlme te obtain lhe assent or the Ameer or Afghanistan te the terms of the arrangement made with Husnla. "The ex pression, 'agreement,'" said Mr. Gladstone, "conveys a soniewhat fallacious Idea of what linn been obtained. I iirefcr the word 'ar rangement.'

Stanley Grimes, or Chicago, lias again entered the lists or scientifie warriors with a new theory Ter the creation of the continents that is decidedly ingenious; nnd his views are given in detail' in a neat Httle book entitled "Geonemy." He opposes the generally received theory tliat tlie earth was originally a molten mass, nnd maintains that thore were iu tlie beginning six elliptical ocean currents that were responsible for the outlines of the present actual continents. The diagrams of the ideal currents seem te bear out the theory geuernlly,the only dojiar dejiar dojiar turesernoto being the raising or the bed of the North Indian ocean and the sinking or seme southern tracts by the glacial epoch.
