Ciiy Government.
The people of Philadelphia are getting
greatly worked up about the Bullitt bill,
and are very mucli mixed in sentiment
about it. Strange bedfellows He down to
gether en the question and party ties are
broken. The impression produced by the
discussion is that the discussers de net
knew very clearly what they are talking
about or what they want. The
question as te what is the best
form of government for Philadelplria
is ene about which great difference and un
certainty is sure te be exhibited, because
the very great majority of the tteople de
net knew what a geed form of city govern
ment should be; and It is net elear
I that anyone knows this. It is a dilllcult
problem. Ne government can be geed with
out goeu elllcers ; and tlie elllccrs will
never be better than their people. The
form of government is probably of small
consequence. If tlie authority with which
the Bullitt bill Invests tlie mayor of Phila
delphia finds a geed majorte receive it, the
result will be geed ; and otherwise net.
The theory which Deems best sustained
by experience is that a centering of re
sponsibility in municipal government is
well. If the major is given a controlling
power he may be held te a full accounta
bility, and with a healthy public sentiment
l.e cannot go far vvieng. It is certainly
true that without such a contielling sen
timent a bad major may de tlie inoie mis
chief the moie pejvcr he is given. The
safely of the people is in thei eople, and as
theyaie will be their government.
A Northern " Outrage."
After seven meutlis cscaj)e scrce ene of
tlie autlieritiea of Philadelphia a " cor
oner's detective" wMjelieve has stumbled
ever Henry M.Epat, who killed Michael
Heffman last August, smashing in his
8kull withal paving stene, Ijecause the
victim had hurrahed for Claveland. As
the murderer was found working en a
farm in tlie outskirts of Brooklyn, within
a hundred miles of Philadelphia, and as
this is the first intimation the public has
had of any serious effort te find a fugitive
who likely never was far off, it must be
quite a disappointment te the police te
llnd that he is in custody.
We will watch with curious interest te
see if the same supineness Is manifested in
the prosecution of this homicide that was
displayed .in the niqcecdiligs fur his arrestT
We noted, at the time of his crime and es
cape, that like circumstances occurring in
the Seuth during the campaign, and result
ing in the killing of a man for Mumting for
Blaine would have furnished a te.tlolhe
the national heart, witli bloed-cuidling
editeiial screeds and eutrage-shrieking ora
tions. New let Philadelphia vindicate its
tardy application of justice te a political
murdeier!
It is said that the Mermen leaders propose
te buy statehood for Utah. This W n rofronli refronli rofrenli
ingly cool preposition.
Tiiuiu: seemed te be some ntucsa in the
suggestion that New Yerk, Droeklyn, and
all the surrounding tonus Iw greujicd under
thocemprchousivo name of Manhattan. It
is new discovered thut the name "Manhat
tan" signifies ''the plae whom drunkards
live." but probably that docs net alter the
litnesa of the proposed application.

An invkntiun that will apply electricity

tion Is te instantaneously reproduceat ene
end or a telegraph line letters printed upon a
type-writer at the ether end. The meit mar
velous thing about the contrivance Is the
fact that a single ordinary telegraph wire con con
eoys the electric current und operates the re
ceiving machine. With this Instrument any any any
ene who can read can transmit und receive
messages as well as the best expert en a tolo telo tole
graphic instrument Anether remarkable
fcature of the Invention is that tlie message
can be received with safety and reliability lu
the ubsence as well as in the presence of the
recipient It cannot be read by sound, and
thcroiere preserves abselute secrecy in mes
sages. It scorns destined te revolutionize the
telegraphy ef-tc-day.
A TitoueiiTFur, wniTun In the Andeier
Review remarks the increasing number of
prlvate schools that are springing up all oer
the land, becuuse of the detects in the re
ceived public school system. The extreme
length of hours that scholars are required te
pore ev cr their text books, the increased ton ten ton
dency teunrds making the public school an
inoxerablo mochlne where tasks are ground
out like se many sausages, and the serious
problem of health that enters into the requir
ing from gievviug children the bearing or
mental burdens tee heavy for them
are ba lug their lnev liable ellect In battering
down the public school idol which it is con
sidered almost a crlme te critlciie. It isllttle
w ender that a pupil leeks upon class books
as inventions et the evil ene and tlie school
teacher as an unpltylug task-master, when
the monotonous regularity with which they
are coinpelled te momerUo dry facln, having
no apparent relation w 1th each ether, Is con
sidered. The eryiug dofeet In tlie common
school system Is Its placing the abstract be
fore the concrete, the word before the Idea it
represents. Hore and thore, it is true, teach
ers may be found v he conscientiously strive
te dovelop erlgnality In their pupils, but
with the ast majority of Instructors a certain
number of puges hi a book must be loarned,
or n stlpuluted number or problems solved,
else it Is thought no educational progress
Is mada It Is net pretended that theso
objections exlst only In public schools.
They are niore noticeable In that sys
tern because or tlie wide area it
covers. But jr this system would held Us
own, It must take the lead In a reform that
will tend te the development of the individual
pupil, rather than making him merely a part
or an educational machine that can beset in
motion by the tip of n bell. Thore should be
less of the foolishness of cramming a dozen
studies Inte a few hours' attendance at school.
Thore should be a shortening of the time
spent In the school roeui, or what would be
the same thbig, mere tlme glveu te the
recesses. There should be less attention paid
te memorizing and mere te the capture or an
Idea. Pinally, rs a sound mind lu a sound
body Is the desideratum, all study should be

The phonetic system or spelling hasn't get
along very rapidly In a hundred years. Away
back lu 1781) Jfeah Webster advocated the
emission In spoiling or the superfluous and
silent letters such as "a" In "bread" and
"head," "e" In "llve" and "glve," "u" In
"guilt" and "built," the substitution or
"oe" In such words as "near" and "grlev e,"
and like senslble reforms. But, although his
dictionary is still with us,hls phonetic system
nover made headway; his attempt te revise
the Bible, and te correct and modernize iU
lerms or expression, in 1833, Was also a dis
mal failure, as it deserved te be. Neah
Webster was born In 1768, and died in ISM.
Though his entire llfe was deveted te tbe
pursuit or knowledge he scarcely ever used
lamp or candle He get up before the sun
and never hurrled.
The tune of " Yankee Beedle" has been

Kitty Fisher found It ;
Nothing In It, nothing In It,
Hut the binding round lu

Iifudtey Murray, who happened te be born
in ljiinrastorceunty simply because the laud
west of the Conowage had net been
set nil te Baupbin in 171 came
into the world crying and kept up
his hullaballeu for six mouths. He left
his native vale of tears when he was 8 years
or age, his parents removing te New Yerk.
Although be could write -verse he bad mere
confidence in the searing wings or another's
intibe, and when he w anted te send poetry
te his wlfe he copied an old song of Geerge
Huddlesferd called "Mutual I)ve,"and be
ginning: When en thy besom 1 recline
Knrapt Ufa still tucull thee mine.
Te call incu mine ler me,
I glory In the tucrcd ties,
W Inch m

Ot husband and of wife.
A ftcr l urray ' death tbe v erscs w ere found
among bis papers, addressed te his wlfe, and
they were published as of his original compo
sition. But there Is only ene stanza In bis
version that was net printed luHuddlcsferd's
book, and there Is neHlgn tltat Murray claimed
authorship e en ler that Fer the matter of
It tbe crses hardly belonged te Huddlesferd.
In another form they w ere really written by
Jehn Laprulk, who told Burns that he had
composed the song ene day when Ids wife
had been fretting ever their misfortunes, In
tbe less or their Jittle esbite, sacrlllced by
their becoming security ter seme porseu con
cerned in "that vlllolueui bubble, the Ayr
bank." Bums had heard the song sung at a
"reckln', te ca the cmck and weave the
stecklu' ", and being struck by their beauty
addressed a rhyming epistle te their author
In bis obscurity tq llnd him out He said :
Thcre was ae sang among the rest,
Abeen them a' It pleased me bent.
That some kind husband had addrest
Te some Bweet w lfe ;
It thllll'd the heartstrings through the breast,
A' te the life.

What generous manly besoms feel ;
Thought I, can this be l'opc.erbtcele,
Or Ileal tic's work?
Tbey teuld me 'twas an odd kind chlel
About Mulrklik.
Hew nearly Huddlosferd bad copied! his
language as well as ideas, may be seen by a
comparison of the stanza given abeve with
the llrst from Lapralk's own original ver
sion :
When I jipeii thy besom lean,
And fondly clasp thee a' my 'alu
I glory In the tucred ties,
Thatmake us one, whaance ueie twain.
After Philip Krcneau, an early American
poet and the virulent political editor, had
written, In his "Indian Burying Ground :"
"By midnight moons, o'er moistening dens,
In vestments for the chase arrajed,
1 he hunter still the deer pursues,
- The hunter und the dcei a shade,"
After this, bear In mind, no less n poet
than Campbell In bis "O'Coner's Child"
wrote:
And en the grass green turf he sits.
Ills tesscled born beside him laid!
Xuw o'er the hills In chace he tilts,
The huntcrand the deei a shade.

Neither was the great Sir. Waller Scott
himself unwilling te liorrew from Froneau.
The latter, en the Horeos of HuUtw, wrete :
They row their lujur'd country's wee,
The flaming town, the waited Held ;
Theu rushed te meet the Insulting feel
They took the spcai livt lea the shield."
New compare a line from "Munitien" with
its prototype :
"Lamented chief I nor thlne the pen cr,
Te save lu that presumptuous hour;
When l'rusaltt hurried te the field,
And snatched the spear but left the bhlcld."
It would be intci eating te knew hew much
the most lllustrleirs poets have appropriated
from tbe mere obscure, with an impunity
that would net have attended like foraging
