N. Y. City. E. KATZ, Agent. ANOTHER MORTAL BLOW. Weyler is back in Havana, and preparing to "deliver a mortal blow" to the insurgents. He seems to be ble to practice on the effects of the "blow better in the city than in the field, and it works better on paper. Weyler's mortal blows are made, most of them, by telegraph, he be ing only a good long distance fighter. His recent conflict with Maceo re minds one of Q. Q. Philander Does ticks, and his boxing match with the colored gentleman. Doesticks had practiced boxing with a big stove for an opponent, and after he got expert enough to guard against the stove's "counters," he hired the African gentleman to come in and let him biff him with the g'oves. The African, out of respect for his em ployer, took the pair of gloves the latter had used in boxing with the stove. As the battle progressed Philander made the discovery that he was getting m almost one lick to his opponent's five, and was in con sequence highly elated at his pros pects of soon delivering a mortal blow. Just as he was going to give it, however, something happened to him. The colored man thought he had given the worth of his hire, and went in for a little fun on his own account. When Doesticks regained -sensibility his colored opponent was gone, likewise the boxing gloves, &U that was left of the battle being a dozen or more contusions on Does tick's, face, the effect of each being heightened by a coating of stove polish well worked in. The great trouble with Weyler is that he is too much of a "mortal . blower," PROBABLY SAFE. Senator Mitchell and his friends can dismiss any doubts they may have entertained as to his re election. The matter is now made as certain as any purely mundane matter can be, if the future can be judged by the past. The Oregonian has com menced the fight against him in a mild way, by permitting the small political fry to nibble at his heels in trashy correspondence. The Orego nian will grow weary of the puerile and futile attacks of the itching scribbler before longj and will edito rially attempt to assist in . the job with its heavier metal and longer range. Some people cannot let a sleeping lion alone, and get hurt when the awakening takes place. We have the profoundest admiration for the ability of the Oregonian editor, for his learning and bis vigorous and crystal English; but when it comes to political intelligence, his bump is represented by a cavity. Mitchell is on pretty safe ground. WEATHER PROPHETS. Foster and Hicks, America's two famous weather prophets, both agree in forecasting a long and severe win ter. Each of them foretold the pres ent cold snap, fixing it to a day, and the worst of it is, each of them say, "Look out for a hard. cold and stormy December." We must con fess to having little faith in weather prognostications made months in advance and based on the changes of the moon, the conjunction ot planets, the color of the goose bone, the hogs melt, or any and all such. Yet the fact is indisputable that Hicks has gone right along for several years naming the weather conditions to prevail months in advance, and nam ing them right. , Still we are in clined to attribute his phenomena) forecasts as due more to his luck at guessing, like that of Father Pump kin, mentioned by Saxe, than to any If you feel disposed to growl at the weather, just read about the qual ity of that article dished up to East ern people. Back in the Dakotas and Minnesota many people have frozen to death, and at one place the storm was so severe that a trainman lost his way going from his caboose to the depot, and was frozen to death. Already the weather is mod erating here, and whatever it does, it is safe to say that it is so much better than that in the East, that our worst would be bailed by them as a harbinger of spring. HOW IS YOUR EYESIGHT. Dr. J. C. Linnerberg, Eye Specialist, Graduate of Bpeucer Opthalmlo Col lege. Mew York City.
