FRIDAY JANUARY 19.1883
NEW TO-DAY
A "Washington dispatch says:
There is a. well defined rumor here
that a change in the cabinet is
imminent; that Secretary Teller
will either take an appointment
abroad or succeed in his senatorial
ambition. Aside from a certain
element in the east, chiefly located
in Philadelphia and Boston, Secre
tary Teller's management of tha
Indian bureau has met with the
heartiest support. It is known
that from the element reierred to,
there has been a very earnest op
position, and that it has had some
effect upon the President there can
be but little doubt. If the change
is made, those who claim to be in
nnsspssion of "Doints" sav that
Senator Mitchell, of Oregon, will
be Teller's successor. It is known
that Senator Mitchell enjoys the
warm personal friendship of the
president. Senator Jones of Ne
vada, who also enjoys much of the
confidence of Mr. Arthar,is known
to be strongly in favor of Mr.
Mitchell for this or some other
nrominent Dosition. Mitchell is
popular among public men in this
city, and his appointment would
meet with very general approval.
A western man and keenly alive
to the general interests of that sec
tion, his appointment would no
doubt, be especially gratifying and
serviceable to the people of the
Pacific coast.
In 18G9 Senator Carpenter of
Wisconsin, predicted that not many !
years would elapse before there FillC Mid Coai'SC
would be "practically but one tele
graph company in the united
States," and that railway consoli
dations, if allowed to go on un
checked, might soon result in such
combination that a few magnates
could usit in .Wall street with
closed doors, and by the light of a
candle, direct the whole carrying
trade of this continent." He was
ridiculed at the time, but it be
gins to look very much that way.

The iconoclasts continue to
destroy the groundwork of a good
many settled convictions. One of
the most cherished ideas is that
the "noble savage" was exempt in
his natural frame from the ills that
civilized flesh is heir to, and that
when culture began so also did
disease. An English society that
lately discovered a choice lot of J
fossils, now prove that prc-histrie
man had the toothache and rheuma
tism, diseases of the hip, etc., just
like the modern mortals.

A man was recently before
Maine judge on a charge of hav
ing burglariously entered a lum
berman's camp and stole clothing
and money. The witness for the
government testified that he saw
the prisoner's head, right arm and
shoulder thrust through an en
trance he had made in the cabin,
and that the stolen articles disap
peared with them. Here the prose
cution rested. "Whereupon the
prisoner's counsel went to the jury
gravely protesting that there was
no case; that to make out a case
of burglary the prosecution must
show an entrance of the whole
man at least the larger part ol
him; the feet as well as the head
must have been within the cabin.
The judge instructed the"1 jury to
return a verdiet of guilty to the
extent which the evidence would
warrant. After a brief absence
the jury returned a -verdict of
guilty against the prisoner as to
his right arm, right shoulder, and
head, and the judge sentenced the
arm shoulder and head to the state
prison for two years. The prisoner
might do with the remainder of
his body as he pleased.
Tub main reason given by the
proprietors of the Cincinnati
Gazette and Cincinnati Commer
cial for consolidation, is that each
paper was spending in addition to
its regular expenses a little matter
of ten thousand dollars a month
for editorials. " 'Tis a good round
sum." A newspaper ought to he
able to get splendid English for
$10,000 every month. It is too
splendid for belief.
It is probable that after the 3d
of March next the Republicans
will only have a majority in the
senate by the aid of Mahone and
Riddleberger, in which case the
New York Times thinks, it would
be far better to leave the "organi
zation of the senate to the Demo
crats than to purchase their co
operation by such concessions as
tkey have been in the habit of demanding.

. Evolutiox claims at length to
have solved the problem of the ori
gin of 'wheat. Grant Allen, the
noted botanist, says: "Wheat ranks
by origin as a degenerate and de
graded lily. The primitive an
cestor of the lily was a very sim
ple plant with & " triple set of
ovaries, and three triple sets of
stamens," etc. The development
went on through many stages.
With the wood rush period com
menced te process of storing
gluten and starch along with the
embryo, which has made that
cereal so valuable for human food,
and raised the wheat, the descend
ant of the lily, the queen of the
floral world to the rank of the
prince of grains, "holding princely
sway upon all the golden harvest
fields of every civilized race and
nation on the globe.
The "306" are moving to bring
Grant to the front once more as
a presidential candidate. It was
said at' the time that the medal
was made of "beaten brass," but
it has ceased to bo symbolical.
At present the sounding cymbal
seems predominant.
"When" Thos. Jeffeeson be
came president there were but 310
office! in the United States sub
ject to appointment by the presi-
dent. There are now more places
in the New York custom-houso
than there were in all the customhouses.
