The inhabitants of that luminary are probably holding conventions of some SOIL Mojfsiaxou Oapcl calls a reporter 'the intellectual mosquito." Perhaps .he is under the iin pression that the average interviewer is a fierce wretch who buzzes while he thirsts for gora The discover.' of a new. or rather a very old, necropolis in Eg pt by a Preach savant gives an additional interest to that country apart from that which it now pssesses as the the atre of Mr. Gladstone'3 curious for eign policy. Five catacombs have thus far been opened -with tho splen--did yield of 120 mummies, and 100 catacombs are, we are insured, "in sight," as the miners in Colorado and Nevada would say. They are ex pected, according to the most scien tific calculation, to contain 6,000 de scendants of the Pharaohs, which is a regular bonanza. Au enthusiastio expert on the business says 'a large harvest of -papyri, jewels and -funeral treasures is expected." Some de scendant of the ancient Egyptians should get out an injunction against the robbery of his ancestors' graven for the benefit of the museum of ''PolSs and the continent The campaign for the presidential nomination would be a tame affair were it not lor tho picturesque figure from Maine. Alone of all tho candi dates defeat heeins to have no terrors for him. In 187G he was knocked down at the head of a host In 1SS0 he went down with anolhor army. This year he may sink with tho pame array. JJul ho fights all the same. Obliterated almost in New York, the home of Arthur, ho comes up next day to wring a partial representation in Ohio, the stamping ground of Sherman, and carries off threo-quar-tera of a delegation as far south as Maryland. lie is in for tho fight, and he may be relied on to fight all the the time. Ho has been caricatured as the "tatooed man" and ia said to be angered thereat; but none the less will he sport his plume all round tho horizon, and wherever thoro is a Blaine man beat hls"latoo" to a more or less popular tune. Some interesting experiments have lately taken place on the other side, their object b2iug to note tho effect of pouring oil upon "troubled waters.' The way tho experiment was carried out was to convey the oil by means of a pipe some distance outside the mouth of the harbor and then let it float to the top. They are said to have been eminently successful, there being no "white horses'' where the oil appeared, only a gentle swell, and it acted a3 a break water to all inside. People seem to be under the impres sion that this is a new idea, but it is not so. The expression, ''pouring oil on troubled waters' is as old as the hills, and it was often used for this purpose by tho fishermen on the ii.ls.nd lakes of Falestiuo bo fore the days of our Saviour. There Is a story told of a wise man of the east who, when a certain king was about to proceed on a hen voyage. presented him wilh a small barrel of oil, which he said was magical. His instructions were to pourjliis On" the sea if it Jl2flJJ TCfiuih nml il wnnlil Wii'' "O -- -- ...-.- uuieiy calm. This the king did, and as it had tho desired effect, ho doubtless eniiched the magician on account of a very simple contri vance. CapL Clift, who arrived at Tacoma last Tuesday, with tho T. F. Oalics, reports using oil with tho hap piest results whilo rounding Cape Horn. English literature, like that of every nation, is not an incident, but a history; not a crysialized gem,"but a ripening fruitage; not a Cleopatra's needle, "whose graceful symmetry would be approved by an absolute standard of beauty, as well in the gardens of Paris as in the deserts of Egypt. It is rather a majestic tree whose grand proportions may bo ad mired at a glance; but to really know it, we must trace the lap-root lo its avaricious fibers down in classic veins, deep among the rocks of ages; then ascend its tortuous path up through the carboniferous strata of mediaeval times; follow out the mem mo .h. roots of table and song, far and "wida in tie deposits of the barbarian upheaval of the Saxon inundation, and of the Northman drift; next see the .sacred shoot bursting to light from the rich mould of the reforma tion; then, leaving unnoticed the whole underbrush of scribblers and sprouting imitators, see the strong trunk of firmly Icnit growths wrapped in the rough bark of old English, twisted and whipped in the winds of public opinion, Bcarred by tho light nings, of battle, aad gnarled by tho warring elements of revolutions, till it'jspreads its luxuriant branches in the sunny air of intellectual and re ligious freedom, and bonds under the abundant fruits of modern civil ization.
