It is only unearthed by the courts and coroners, and this, of itself, is peculiarly appropriate, since discov ery of the evil has but one wretched alternative, the penitentiary or the grave. It ia hard to conceive the sort of man that deliberately assumes the fearful burden of duplicity necessary to success fully maintain two wives, in two homes; raise and nurture two sets of children; work for them, sustain, comfort, teach, and love them; and carry it all off with the apparent quality of single-minded-ness and earnestness inseparable from the ordinary duty of paternity. ' Such a man is, of course," abnormal; this he must be, ever to concieve the scheme. But his moral irregularity in ' no way vouches for a mental lapse of 1 any degree, for the man who can ac complish this feat of dual deviltry, is anything but insane. He must have mental poise of the highest order to maintain the dangerous and delicate equilibrium of his position. He is warp ed only in his moral sense, and his will ingness to do so profound and desperate a wickedness his whole life through. He is without parallel for deliberate, con scious, cultivated duplicity and passes all comprehension in human classification. There is one inseparable conclusion, in his history, and that is, that from the moment he begins to indulge his fearful sin against humanity, he sets up and in vokes the penalty as well. He is the unescapable victim of trepidation, fear of discovery, exposure, reprisals; he is instantly on guard against error of time, plaee, people, speech; covertly on the lookout for signs of suspicion, everlast ingly busy hiding his tracks; adopting new phases of action and custom and committing himself to thousands of ex traordinary adaptations the common and decent man never thinks of. His dual post and privilege h no sinecure. He is the hardest-driven scoundrel on the face of the earth, and luckily, one of the rarest. PIERCE, THE SOLDIER-POET. We do not know who this soldier-poct, Pierce is that the United States army authorities are about to court-martial for his temerity in framing and singing the camp-song "Always in the Way," but we will bet our office shears to a dog collar, that he is an ex-newspaper man. The very adroitness, Bkill and audacity of the poem has the touch and talent of the craft; and if it is so, we are sorrier for Pierce than ever. He must be a thorn in the sides of the snobs or he would not be put out of the service by the back-door of court-martial. The army officer as a general thing is amen able to a good thing, and while he may, for the sake of discipline, frwn on any thing that is likely to bring reproach upon the service, he is placable always and concedes much to the humor and fame of the corps, no matter whence it may come. This being the case, it would seem that Pierce's offense is over-rated just a bit in favor of some- super sensitive and oonsoriuous party, who was, aptly, or inaptly, subjected to ridi cule by the use of the funy and popular air, at some particular juncture. ' INDISCRIMINATE BLOOD-LETTING. There U a veritable dlvi of mur derous and suicidal blood k'U'i'S f,H thew day. The pre of the country is fairly dripping with it. Hardly an lu jtws out without it separate and effec tive story of death, by knife or pistol or plate-glass of other dubious wapon. The universal morbidity, perhaps, repre sents a current cycle; a sjtecinlty in eventualities s or a juncture of personal erii in human life. But whatever the cause, it is becoming monotonously nor rid, and horridly monotonous. , 0 A WORKER'S PARADISE, Astoria ha fewer idle men than any place In the country. There is not a mill, not factory,, nor farm, nor com mercial depot of any sort ot u here about that has all the labor it wants; and good wagn are current. Of course, thoe who work for these establishments are expected to work, and do work. And the only idle men in port are those who do not want to work, or do not need to. A funny little story in this relation was told yesterday morning when a well known tug captain reported to his head quarter office that it was "not safe to make any more landings at a certain mill dock in this vicinity, because the mill people were always successful in coaxing the deck hands to quit the steamer for the mill." This tells the tale in brief and with all truth. , . .0 000000000000000000 0 EDITORAL SALAD. 0 0000 0 0 00000 0000000 The brown-tail moth, which is the plague of Xew England trees, was im ported by Professor Tronvelot as an aid in hk experiments in producing silk.

The country ex. pects a better Yankee wrinkle than that. Toledo shows that it is a live town by advocating a waterway to the gulf by way of the Mississippi river. Nature has marked out the be-t road from the interior to the sea in a manner not to be mistaken. The Spanish royal marriage is unpopu lar in England, though the bride is a granddaughter of Victoria. Historically, the mixture of the two races in monar chical matrimony has always ' made trouble. The Hon. John Sharp Williams seems to be conducting a filibuster in the House of Representatives on th,e theory that otherwise the country would be in danger of forgetting that the Democratic minority is still there. In Japan the average pay of cotton mill operatives is 14 cents a day, a fact worth the attention of the party that proposes to make free trade its para mount issue. Gen. Bristow says there are two ways of getting into the United States Senate. When it comes to the difficulty of 'get ting Burton out of the United States Senate, there are no two ways about it, 0" Now they are squabbling over whether the settlement of the coal strike was a recognition of the union. It was sup posed somebody had recognized the pub lic, just for a parsing glance. 0 Old Cap Anson of Chicago, is in some kind of trouble in his office of City Clerk. The country didn't see the vhv, but whatever it was, the country is in favor of killing the umpire. 0 All the world loves a lover entirely too much to sympathize with any Carlist plot sagainst Alfonso of Spain at the present time. The Louisville lid makes St. Louis seem like a wicked town, and some of the home-coming Missourians may feel doubtful about staying over Sunday. 0 The auhor of "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" still goes "marching on" toward the century post on life's high way. 0 In these days of revelations and legis lative inquiries he is a lucky 'captain of industry" who can take a leisurely European trip.
