Conkling'* '•Orealness" Again, j
Is Mr Conkling a great man? If 1
he is. in what does his greatness con
sist ? These questions hare been ask
ed many times; but while his admir
ers have always hastened to answer
the first promptly and emphatically in
the affirmative, no one of them has
ever ventured upon a reply to the sec
ond. Usually when a man is great
there is no difficulty in pointing out
the elements which constitute his
greatness, but Mr. Conkling seems to
be a unique specimen. Of gorgeous
eulogy, like that of Mr. Foster and Dr.
Newman, we have had a surfeit, but
we doubt if even those two eminent
slobberers would be willing to call
their eloquence by so cold a name as
evidence. Turning from his friends to
the record of his public career, what do
we find? Mr. F. W. Whitridge ans
wered this question in the October No. of
The Internation Review, in an ad
mirable article from which we quote
els where. He showed that the record
was scarcely more vocal on the ques
tion of greatness than Mr. Conkling's
friends were. His long career in Con
cress and in the Senate has left no en
during mark upon the legislation of his
time. His great efforts were nearly
all made in caucus or in secret session,
and were aimed to defend partisanship
in politics rather than to promote the
public welfare. As a lawyer he has
had only six cases in the Supreme
Court, where Senator Edmunds has
had nineteen, and General Garfield,
who was hardly thought of as a law
yer, had thirteen. In the New-\ork
Court of appeals he had only five cases,
two of them political, in one of which
he had made his celebrated 'halcyon
and vociferous' appeal which has lived
only because of its grotesque absurdi
ty of rhetoric.
"Ah," his friend say, "you must ad
mit that he showed flcreat abilities as
a political manager ? No man but a
born leader could have Leld the com
plete sway which be held for so many
years over the Republican party of
New-York." Yes, be did hold com
plete sway, but how ? Simply liecause
President Grant gave him absolute
control of all the'patronage of the State.
No man could hope for office uuless he
first bowed down to Mr. Conkling If
it be an exhibition of greatness for a
man to succeed when he has things
all his own way, then Mr. Conkling
was great. By the same rule Tweed
was great The test of a man's abili
ty is his conduct in adversity. What
became of Mr Conkling's greatness
when his patronage was taken away ?
From the time his absolute control of
New York appointments ended he did
nothing but blunder. Thrown upon
his own resources, with the support
of the National Administration re
moved, he first made great show of
fighting, then resigned his seat aud
ran away. This was certainly a long
way fro.ii greatness. But what shall
be said of the political sagacity of a
leader—to give it no higher name—
who resigns in the expectation of be
ing elected without first making sure
that he can be reelected? What can be
said of him when, after finding that he
cannot be elected, he makes a hopeless
fight for weeks for "a vindication," on
ly to be defated in the end ? Was his
greatness visible in any of this?
Compare him with the other men
whose names have been associated
with his in the political methods com
mon to all of them. Nobody attributes
greatness to Senator Don Cameron, of
Pennsylvania, yet his sway over Penn
sylvania politics has been as complete
for many years as Mr. Conkling's ever
was in New York.
Wherein, then, is Mr. Conkling
great ? He i£ clearly not great as a
statesman, not great as a lawyer, not
great as a political manager. What
else remains ? Will he, can be be
great as a Judge ? Is the long-deferred
greatest effort of his life to be made on
the Supreme Bench ? Perhaps it is.
Perhaps he is merely great in expecta
tion.—New York Tribune.
The Mean Velocity of Stream*.
At a recent meeting of the American
Society of Civil Engineers, a paper by
Mr. 11. E. McMath, of St. Louis, on
the above subject, was read, and with
it was presented a set of diagrams of
curves, deduced from the experiments
of J. B. Francis, at Lowell, from the
observations of Gen. Theo. 0. Ellis,
upon the flow of the Connecticut Riv
er, from the records of the flow of the
Mississippi, made by Generals Hum
phreys and Abbot, and also from
various other observations of the flow
of the Mississippi, at Columbus, Ky.,
at Vicksburg, Miss., atCarrollton, La.,
and at the passes at the mouth of the
Mississippi.
The author of the paper presents for
consideration and discussion the sug
gestion that, to determine a reliable
rule for the flow of streams in natural
channels, tie considerations affecting
an artificial channel should be kept en
tirely distinct; that the definite law of
discbarge over a river is usefully ap
plicable at any transverse section above
and within the influence of a river,
dam, or shoal; that the relation be
tween mean and maximum velocity
cannot be used in streams of irregular
section ; that bead is pressure, but not
in all cases full of surface ; that in nat
ural streams the bars or shoals are
substituted for the weir or dam ; that
the level of no discharge is determined
by the horizontal plane through the
crest of a wier, dam, or natural bar ;
that two new hydraulic terms may be
used, namely : permanent area, or that
part of transverse section below the
plane of no discharge ; and ruling depth,
or the depth of the plane below the
surface. Formulie are then suggested
in application of these considerations.
I had great trouble with my lungs
until I used Peruna. Am well. Mrs.
A. Briske, Pittsburg, pa
The Michigan Farmer reports that
President Lannin accidentally found
in packing straw-berries that a layer of
fresh strawberry leaves over the upper
tier of boxes in the crate will keep
them in very fine condition, as it ex
cludes the air, and the fruit comes into
market better than if not so covered.
We persume any other fresh leaves
do as well.
The United States Circuit Court for
the Northern District of New York
has virtually decided against the claim
of N. W. Green to be the inventor of
the 'driven well,' on the ground that
such wells had been in use prior to the
alleged invention in 1801. A prelim
inary injunction was sought against
certain parties, and the request was re
fused for the reason stated. The de
cision is regarded as making a highly
important precedent concerning the
yalidity of the patent.
Mutilated Coin.
The nui?anee of mutilated coin is
not one-half as bad as it was a short
time ago. It had become so bad that
a large proportion ot the coin, especial
ly silver, in actual circulation was mu
tilated. For some time past mutilated
coins have been rapidly disappearing
from circulation. In current trade but
little of it is now seen. This is owing
to the fact that the general refusal to
receive the debased coinage has led to
its being redeemed by the Government
upon presentation. The holders of it
in any quantity send the mutilated
coin to the mint to be redeemed at the
rate of one dollar for eyery ounce of
bullion. They, of course, lose on the
transaction when the face value of the
coin is considered, but being unable to
dispose of it in any other way they
have to do the l>est they can with it.
The L'nited States Treasurer does not
redeem mutilated coin, although every
day a large quantity of it is sent to
him. It is always returned. The
coin should be sent to the mint, where
in sums representing a face value of $3
it is redeemed as bullion at the rate of
$1 for every ounce. There has been a
little ruse resorted to by holders of
mutilated coin, in order not to lose as
much as they do by having it redeem
ed simply as bullion. They have gone
to jewelers and had the punched holes
filled in with gold or silver, as the
case may be, and at a cost which
would moke a saving if these coins
could be passed in that way. This
matter has been brought to the at
tention of the T reasurv Department.
It was referred to the director of the
mint for a decision. His decision is
that as soon as a coin is mutilated it
ceases to become a coin, and is simply
bullion; and no patching of it can
make it good. There has been an ex
tensive business carried on by jewel
ers in 'mending' coins that have been
mutilated. But by the director's de
cision no loophole is left for mutilated
coins. Even patching up will not
make them current. They will have
to go out of circulation, and they are
going out very rapidly.
An Ajf«te Forest.
The workmen on the Denver and
[• New Orleans Kailroad, while within
from twenty to twenty-five miles of
| Denver. Col., between Cherry and
Running creeks, encountered a some
what remarkable obstruction to their
further progress, consisting of a buried
forest. The trees are all petrified and
agatized, of various sizes, and are
buried at depths of from ten to twenty
• feet, as deep as the men found it neces
sary to go. These trees were met in
half a dozen localities, are very perfect,
and if proper machinery was used
could be unearthed nearly or quite
• whole.— Northwestern Lumberman.
A Good Kiirne
should not hesitate to wait upon those
whom even such a disease as small
pox has attacked. There is little to be
feared by persons waiting on the sick
if they will use Darbys Prophylactic
Fluid freely in the water they bathe
with and also take it internally. In
sick rooms it should be exposed on a
plate or saucer, and the patient sponged
off with the Fluid diluted with water,
aud also a few drops internally. It
should also be used about every part
of the house.
What Elephant Milk is Like.
A sample of elephant's milk is re
-1 ceived Irom Bridgeport at the Sheffield
Scientific School daily, and Dr. Jenkins,
of the experiment station, is making an
exhaustive chemical analysis of its
component parts. The milk resembles
cow's milk and has a very heavy cream
Its odor is much like cow's milk, al
though stronger, and is sweet to the
taste and has great delicacy of flavor.
The fat of the milk is light yellow and
has the appearance of yellow oil. The
most noticeable quality of the milk is
its great richness ; the large percentage
of cream were found in the later speci
mens.

A sport in which boys have long in
dulged, that of mole-catching, promises
in the near future to possess the addi
tional advantage of being rcumnera
tive, since mole-skin cloaks are now
the 'rage' in England. The notion
will, no doubt, soon find its way to
this country. Lady Brassey, who is re
sponsible for the fashion, is said to pos
sess the finest garment of that kind
ever made, containing over one thou
sand skins, all collected by herself, and
valued at 200 guineas.

presses a determination to recover the

■A shrewd man who had made a
fortune by hard work and economy
sent his son to a popular College.
The young man spent a great deal of
money, and became distinguished for
anything but devotion to his studies.
The father came to the College, and
seeing how things were going took
his son away, giving as his reason to
the Dean, 'I don't believe in spending
$2,000 on a $2 boy.' Education is
good, but there must be something
to educate. A College education costs
somebody a'tnut $2,000, and what
parents and College Presidents need to
ask, is whether a young man has
character and ability enough to repay
the investment of so much time and
money in him.
