Tho Philadelphia 1'rcss has discov

President Arthur lunched with Au
gust Uolmont nt Newport, recontly.
t I'olitleal ICxchanyc.
This is about as important news as
we over hear from the present incum
bent of tho Presidential chair. Ho has
cither just lunched, or gono fishing,
liko a baby or a school-boy. Thous
ands of dollars aro weekly expended
for wiro reports about Arthur's last
' "lunch" or string of b.ns. What does
this nation caro how many times tho
President cats botwcoa meals or how
many suckers ho units out of a mill
pond T Head the history of the
United StatoSj and you will find no
word of any lunching by Washington,
except when ho lunched oil tho British
soldiery at tho expense of Lord Corn
wallis. .Teffertfoii was rather moro re
nowned for statecraft than lunches.
The Adamses uV not nppear to havo
lunched all through tho dull season
preceding a political campaign. Abe
Lincoln had his hands so full of busi
ness that ho was satisfied to snatch a
cold bito anywhero ho could got it,
without refcrenco to tho fact in tho
howspapera. It was Grant who set tho
horriblo example of lunching to tho
click of tho telegraph key-board, and
Arthur lias lunched his way from Wash-
' ingt6n to tho Yellowstono and back,
'and is 'now fishing and lunching up and
down tho wholo Atlantic coast. And

candidate for another torm ! Turn tho

'''' Do Not Porget These Pacts.
Tho ollicial figures of the Ohio dec
' tion aro not yet returned, but tho ag-
gregato voto is only about ten thous-
and short of tho largest ever polled in
tho State. Oa this great voto the De
mocrats havo beaten tho Republicans
by a majority of about 10,000.
lloretoforo it has always been claim
ed that with a full voto Ohio was a
surely Republican State Experience
may bo said to havo justified that
claim. But tho last trial of strength
has proved to bo an exception to the
' common rule, nnd has inspired tho Do
' ipocrats with confidenco in their ability
1 to repeat their triumph in 1884.
'' It is needless to talk any more about
tho different causes of Republican de
feat as alleged by a rival or by disap
pointed leaders of tho party. The
supremo causo they will not recognize.
The Republican party long ago fulfill
ed its mission. It would not bo in power
now but for flagrant fraud and scanda
lous corruption. The days of its
remaining existence are numbered.
Tho peoplo earnestly demand a
chango in tho administration of publio
affairs. They intend to havo glaring
abuses reformed and to havo economi
cal government instead of cxtrava
ganco and stealing. They will insist
that tho President and tho Cabinet who
are to succeed tho present incumbents
shall earn their salaries honestly, by re
maining nt tho seat of Government
and giviug proper attention to the peo
plo's business. Tho timo has gone by
when public servants can play the part
of masters, and draw full pay for con
tinuous mouths of idleness and of ab
' sence from duty, while appropriating
publio property to their personal use
' ' and pleasure.
That is tho political significance of
tho recent election in Ohio. Tho Re
publican party is going, and it is coinc
fast. JT. Y. Sun.

Defying the Law.
Attornoy General Cassidy appeared in
theDaupluu County Court Tuesday and
asked for a writ of mandamus on tho
Sinking Fund Commissioners on ac
count of their failure to invest inll (ho
available surplus iu tho Stato Treasury
in United States or Stato bonds. Mr.
Cassidy said tho purpose of, tho Writ
was to compel this board to invest, as
required by tho recent act of Assembly
known ns the Humes act, tho large
sums of money uow deposited, without
interest to the State, with various banks
and individuals, and that in presentjng
it now ho Bimply desired to get a re
turn day and trusted that Saturday
next would bo an aeceptnblo time. Mr.
Weiss said that, as his firm would pro
bably represent some of tho defen
dants, he desired to say that the return
day ought to be fixed at, say, sixty
days. The caso was a grave one and
would take time for preparation. Jlr.Cas
sidy pretested against such delay, and
after somo further argument the Judgq
said : "It does not seem to us that
fixing Saturday next is giving reason
able time. Tho usual time is ten days. Let
this writ issue retuniablo on Monday,
November 5, at 10 o'clock.'1
The effort of tho counsel for the re
publican Sinking Fund Commissioners,
to stavo off the return of
tho writ of mtuuliumw asked for by
the attornoy general to compel them
to obey tho law which commands them
to invest tho 1,000,000 of surplus in
tho Sinking Fund in stato or Unjted
States bonds, raises a now issue In tho
present political canvass. One of tho
best known iinancinlmen of Ilnnisburg,
says :
"The law is nn eminently proper one
and just what tho honest peoplo of
both parties have demanded and hoped
for these many years. Had it been
enacted twenty years ago the saving in
interest to the stato would havo beon
sufficient by this time to have enabled
the legislature to wipo out all the sato
tax on personal property. Tho people
would thus havo been relieved jo a
largo extent of their burdens, Now
when the law so long waited for has
been enacted the auditor general and
state treasurer refuso to execute it and
when the attornoy general undertakes
to ooinpol thorn he is met by an Attempt
at dilatory proceedings. Tho people
will certainly not rest quiet under such
a scheme to deny them tho benefit of
tho law."
THE COOTMBLA.N AND
Pension Frauds.
The alloiilioii of Postmaster General
Gipshairt Iim been called to the pen-
rmm iiifuiib swjiiuiurn will) nro laKlllg
from'tho poor of tho country thousands
'of dollars ycArly by misrepresentations.
In reply General Gresham says : "I
havo ilo doubt of tho truth about these
operations, but I do not sco how I can
help It. To begin with, tho mails nro
for tho uso of all persons. Then tho
statutes speclty certain classes of indi
viduals to whom registered letters nnd
money orders may be denied Unless
the statutes plainly cover n case, such
as that of lottery companies, tho Post
tna9ler is powerless, for ho obviously
has no authority to make laws, but to
oxecuto such as ho finds'. I do not
think 1 can do anything to stop this
wholesalu pension swindling. If a
caso were bronuU before mo than 1
could Investigate it nnd sco if tho
statutes cover it." The statute by nu
thority of (which Genoral Gresham has
Stopped tho mnil of tho Louisiana Lot

Jefferson Monument.
The Thomas Jefferson monument at
Montecil'.o, Va., is completed. Tho
monument consists, first, of two foun
dation courses, the lower twelvo feet
square and tho next eight feet square
ana oacn nine luetics in liemht, which
cover1 tho graves of Jefferson and four
ot lus kindred who aro buried at bis
head and feet and on either Bide. Theso
foundation stones are surmount
ed by a die four feet squaro at the
base and threo feet seven inches in
height and this by a granito obelisk
three feet twoinchessqunre at the base
and twelve feet cloven inches high.
Tho total height of tho monument
above tho ground is therefore eighteen
feet. The inscription, composed by
Jefferson, and in accordance 'with bis
directions placed on tho obelisk, is as
tollows :
"Hero was liuricil

The Pint Electric Telegraph.
Tho idea of the practical application
of tho electric telegraph to the trans
mission of messages was first suggest
ed uy an anonymous correspondent of
tho Scots Magazine, in a letter dated
Renfrew. February 1, 1053, signed by
C. M.. and entitled "An Expeditious
Method of Conveying Intelligence.''
After very considerable trouble Sir
David Brewster indentified the writer
as Charles Morrison, a native of Green
ock, who was bred a surgeon, and ex
pcrimented bo largely in scienco that
he was regarded in Renfrew as a wiz.
aid, and eventually found it convenient
to leave that town nnd settle iu Vir
ginia, where he died. Mr. Morrison
sent an account of experiments to Sir
Hans Sloane, tho President of tho Roy
al Society, in addition to publishing
them anonymously, as stated above.
The letter set for a sohemo by which n
number of wires, equal to tho letters
of the alphabet, should bo extended
horizontally, parallel to one another,
nnd about one inch apart, between two
places. At every twenty yards they
were to bo carried on glass supports,
and at each end thoy were to project
six inches boyond tho last support,
and have sufficient strength nnd elasti
oily to reoovor their situntion after
having been brought into contact with
an electric gun-barrel placed at right
angles to their length about an inch
below them. Close by tho last sup
porting glass a ball was to bo suspend
ed from each wire, and at about a sixth
or nn eighth of nn inch below tho balls
the letters of tho alphabet wero to bo
plaoed on bits ol paper, or any sub
stance lighteiiough to raise to tho elec
trified ball, and to continued that each
might retuuio its proper plnco when
dropped. With an apparatus thus con
structed tho conversation with tho dis
tant end of the wires was carried on by
depressing successively the ends of tho
wires corresponding to tho letters of
the words, until thoy mado contact with
tho electric gun barrel, when inimo
dintely tho same oharactirs would rise
to the electrified balls at the four sta
tions. Another method consisted in
the substitution of bells in place of the
letters j these were souuded by the
electric spark breaking against them.
According to another plan the wires
could bo kept constantly charged nnd
the signal seut by discharging thorn.
Mr. Monieou's experiments did not ex
tend over circuits longer than forty
yards, but ho had every confidence that
the range of action could bo greatly
lengthened if due caro woro given to
tho Insulation of tho wires. lYoin J2n-glnttrlny.

Diamonds.
Wo asl; the attention of pur
chasers to the Importations of
Fine Diamonds now arriving.
To meet the demands of the
most critical, and consequently
the mo Jt prudent, we confine our
selves entirely to the sale of such
diamonds as may be pronounced
strictly fust-class in quality.
Rucogn'zing the fact that in
ferior stones have little intrinsic
value, it has been our business
aim to offer only such Diamonds
as we can unhesitatingly recom
mend as a judicious money in
vestment. In Rubies, Emeralds, Sapphires,
Cat's Eyes, and Rare colored
Gems of all kinds, we have been
fortunate in securing many beau
tiful specimens.
We desire to extend a most
cordial invitation to our custo
mers and other:! ia thisclty to visit
our store, now rendered addition
ally attractive, by reason of the
many elegant goods of all kinds
constantly arriving from abroad.
