,The Saratoga’s Winter Voyage.
The announcement that the school-
ship Saratoga, which will sail on a three
months’ voyage on February 3, has a
complement of ’70 boys with room for
nearly 100, should bring to the front
some of the boys who think a life on
the ocean wave the one thing above all
others to be desired. If life at sea can
be said to be pleasant under any circum—
stancesit must be so on board the Sara-
toga, for the route to be sailed and the
ports that will be touched are all within
the West India domain,which is favored
with the pleasantest winter climate in
the Western Hemisphere.
With its record of seventy-two sailor
graduates, all of whom have secured
employment on the ocean steamers who
desired it, the scholship Saratoga may
be said to have passed the experimental
stage. As a training school for sailors,
it is superior to the old method of ship-
ping before the mast, for the reason
that the boys are taught a. great deal
more than to spread and furl sails,keep
the decks clean and perform the "duties
of the watch. They are taught these
things of course, but in' addition they
are trained in scientific seamanship, so
that when graduated they are on the
way to official positions on board the
great modern steamers if they follow
up their profession and continue to prac
ties the art they have been taught.
The revolution in ocean navigation
by the introduction of mammoth iron
steamships will cause a constantly in-
creasing demand for just the kind of
seamen the Saratoga is turning out and
a correspondingly decreasing demand
for the oldfashioned type of sailors.
In view of this fact, the Saraioga not
only offers an opportunity to boys to
learn modern seamanship under the
most favorable condition s, but opens
the way to an honorable and successful
career in a field that is not as yet over-
crowded. There should be no trouble
in filling every vacancy in the Sara-
toga’s complement of embryo seamen
before the day set for its.departure up-
on its pleasant winter voyage.
«o-
Democratic insanity.
The°people of the nation elected a
Democratic President, a Democratic
Senate and a Democratic House, and
gave an overwhelming majority in
favor of Democratic measures. How
have the men chosen to execute the
high trust 'perfOrmed their duties, asks
the' DemOcratic Philadelphia Times.
From the day of the meeting of the
present Congress until now, the Demo-
cratic majority has exhibited neither-
statesmanship, political sagacity nor
patriotism. It dallied with the silver
bill, which should have been made a
law in a fortnight,until the country be-
came really disgusted with the lack of
Democratic cohesion and ability to rule
a great nation. _
Two plain duties were imposed upon
the Democrats of Congress. One is
the establishment of a sound financial
policy and the other the inauguration
of tariff reform: But instead of unity
of purposes on these great questions,
the Democrats have been discordant,
lacking in leadership, and thus far have
exhibited little else than the political
insanity that leads to suicide.
The fact that the house has been
delayed in the consideration of the
tariff by Democratic absentees, when
it was well known that the party and
the country desired prompt action,
simply brings the Democracy into pub-
lic contempt, and unless it shall gather
up its.stragglers,.declarc its purposes
and pursue them, the present Congress
will accomplish nothing beyond sound-
ing the, death-knell of the Democratip _
party. ”' ‘
The business of the country is wait-
ing upon Congress to act, and Congress
must act promptly on the tariff ques.
tion .or forfeit the confidence of the
Evidence's“*6i“ déaiocraric‘insanity, and
must surely foreshadow Democratic
suicide. There is yet opportunity for
the Democrats to retrieve themselves
by promptly and manfully obeying the
command of the nation, but further
delay and divided councils must lead to
politica overthrow.

One Year of Cleveland.
There is nothing in the present con.
dition of affairs at the capital, politi-
cally, financially, or in any other re-
spect, says a Washington dispatch to
the New York Sun, that in any manner-
suggcsts that the Administration now
about closing its first year was brought
into existence by one of the greatest
victories inpolitical history. So far
from there being a single thing to indi-
cate one joyous sentiment or any feel-
ing of satisfaction about anything, the
reverse in its most aggravating form is
the fact.
It is impossible to exaggerate the
sense of disappointment, loss, and dis-
aster which oppresses Democrats who
so lately came to Washington to parti-
cipate in Mr. Cleveland’s inauguration,
and the meeting of Congress. The
victors and the chief they rallied around
so heartily, are in a condition of an-
tagonism. Nothing has he done that
commands applause. So far from ap-
plause, open or suppressed denuncia-
tion is the hard fact growing harder
every day. There has been no act
done, no measure proposed, that has
not tended to split the party into frag-
ments. Where statesmanship was looked
for there has been nothing that did not
shame the name at home or abroad. In
finance and administrative ability a
bankrupt treasury describes the fact in
general and particular at the present
instant.
As to the future, a budget is propos-
ed by the Administration that enacts
deficiency and debt and raids capital
and enterprise in the spirit of agrari-
anism. The new budget threatens
every element of business and progress
as though these were enemies; The
President is in open hostility with his
party, bent on schemes of personal re-
venge. He is constantly using the power
of the Government for this contemp-
tible end. Whether one goes to the
Senate, the House of Representatives,
or to the departments, or wherever
Democrats are assembled, dissatisfac-
tion, anger, and sorrow are the spoken
words. Mr. Cleveland is accused of
acts and purposes to defend which it is
impossible, to support which would be
political suicide. Only a small part of
the truth as to this is known to the pub-
lic, notwithstanding the great amount
of open speaking that one hears on all
sides.
It has been and to a certain extent
still is, the hope of Democrats with
whom Cleveland seems determined to
quarrel, that he would return to sanity
and to the dignity that belongs to his
station ; but this hope is dying out, to
be followed by a course of action be-
coming men clothcd with the rights
and responsibilities of a co-ordinate
branch of the Government. It was in
this spirit that Senator Pugh, Chair-
man of the Senate Judiciary Commit-
tee, said in reference to Peckham’s
nomination, for Associate Judge : “It
is my hope and my Opinion that the
committee will make an unfavorable
report on this nomination by Mr.
Cleveland." Senator Pugh is as true
a Democrat as the list of Senators
affords. His words are indictive of
the spirit of the Democratic Senators
provoked by Cleveland’s general course,
Peckham’s nomination in particular.
The nomination will be rejected by
even a stronger Democratic vote than
non-confirmed Hornblower. This will
be cumulative proof that the point has
been reached where Mr. Cleveland
must prepare to receive criticism. The
Policy of Infamy will hereafter be
allowed no quarter ; and generally
there is no kind feeling toward Cleve-
land. The insanity of his actions is
admitted, and will be treated as it de-
serves. To this course of conduct
Democrats have come slowly but deter-
minedly as the only one that will suffice.

Income Bill Before the “House—Haw-
aiian Discussion iirthe Senate.
WASHINGTON, Jan. 80. ‘-— Immediately
after the house-Weht into committee of
the whole yesterday, Mr. McMillin, dem.,
Tenn, offered the internal revenue bill,
with the income tax feature, as an amend-
ment to the tariff bill. After the bill had
been read, Mr. McMillin spoke in advo-
cacy of it. Mr. Hall, dem., Mo., also
made a strong and earnest plea in favor
ofit. His remarks wei'e attentively list-
ened to and warmly applauded. Mr. Wil-
liams, dem., Misa, and Mr. Tarsney, dem.,
Mo, also supported the amendment,
while Messrs. Ray, rep., N. Y., Daniels,
rep., N. Y., and Covert, dem., N., Y. cp-
posed it. No other business was trans—
acted in the house and at 5:33 a recess
was take nuutil.
Senate.
The attention of' the senate was held
for two hours yesterday by a very inter-
esting speech from Mr. Teller, rep., COL,
on the Hawaiian question, after which
the resolution was placed on the calen-
dar. Mr. Thurston, the Hawaiian minis-
ter, was an interested auditor.
Mr. Teller took very advanced grounds
in favor of the annexation of the 'Haw—
aiian islands and, ultimately, of Cuba
and Canada. He argued that the provi;
sional government was an existing gov-
ernment, which could not be overthrown
or questioned by the government of the
United States, and he said that he would
vote for the resolution as reported from
the committee on foreign relations, even
with the clause in it, which he did not
favor, that it is unwise and inexpedient
under existing conditions to consider at
this time any project of annexation of
Hawaiian territory to the United States.
The house bill to repeal the federal elec-
tion laws was taken up and speeches
against it were made by Senator Chan-
dler, rep., N. H., and Higgins, rep., Del.,
Mr. Chandler criticizing President Cleve-
land and Senator Hill in connection
with election frauds in the state of New
York. The bill went over without action.
The senate adjourned at 5:50 p. m.
GEN. DIANIGAT ARRESTED.
HeLIVas Leaving Kingston to Start on
a Rebel Vessel for Ilayti.
KINGSTON, Jamaica, J an. 30. ~— Gen.
Francois Manigat, who has been plotting
to start a. revolution in Hayti, was ar-
rested last night as he was leaving Kings-
ton to board a vessel which had brought
arms and ammunition for him from an
American port. Manigat and his men
planned to go on this vessel to Hayti and
to begin hostilities at once.
NEW YORK, Jan. 80,—The Clyde line
steamer El Callao, in port here, made
stops at a number of Haytien ports. Her
officers had heard nothing of the troubles
in Hayti or San Domingo. At St. Marc,
however, they said that the government
of Ilayti had put aboard of her two col-
ored men, who were political fugitives
from Dominica. Their passage'was paid
to Anagua, an English possession. The
Hayt‘ien government has all the political
agitators to deal With that it can handle,
the officers said, aud_it'decided to get rid.
of the Dominican refugees. The two men-,2
however, (lecamped at Port de Paix.
\Vhile the vessel lay oil? the harbor of
Cape Haytien the officers noticed out
towards the island of Tortugas a warlike
little steamer of about 800 tons. She was
cruising about and seemed to be keeping
a sharp look out on all the shipping. The
description is said to answer that of one
of the Haytien gungoats and it is thought
that she may be on the look out for the
two vessels said to have been purchased
by the friends of Gen. Manigat to take
part in his proposed revolt against the
government of Hippolyte.
FOUND HIS PARENTS DEAD.

Nonmsrowx, Pa, Jan. 30. -- George
Donnelly, son of Mr. and Mrs. Peter Don—
nelly, of Conshohocken, was stolen from
his parent’s house over twenty years ago
when he was but thirteen months old.
The couple spent considerable money but
were unsuccessful in finding the boy and
both have since died.
On Saturday the missing boy, now a
man, returned to his former home, having
discovered his identity from an uncle that

tion with the condemnation proceedings
for a new site for the Philadelphia mint.
Massachusetts’ State Tax.
BOSTON, Jan. 30.——It is estimated that
the state tax will be $500,000 less than last

ites loan and the loan for the separation

Telephone Patents Expire.
Portions of the Bell telephone patents
become public property to-day as fol-

the inventors'having expired :—
“The combination with an electro-

other material capable of inductive
action which can be thrown into vibra-
tion by the movement of surrounding
air or by the attraction of a magnet.
“The formation in an electric tele-
phone of a magnet with a call upon
the end or ends of the magnet nearest
the plate.
“In combination with an electric tel-
ephone the employment of a speaking
or hearing tube for conveying sounds
to or from the telephone.”
The above is a correct description of
the patents which have expired. There
are many improvements now in use in
the telephone, however, which are cov-
ered by patents which will not expire
for many years.

In the \Vest Indies the fireflies are
very large and are frequently caught
and confined in netting for personal or-
naments. A lady will sometimes appear
in a ballroom with red, green, yellow

The other day we heard a young girl
say to her fiancee: “If you are really
sorry, and say so, then it is just the
' same as though you had never been in
fault at all.”_ This was very sweet phil-
osophy coming from rosy lips, but not
exactly truthful, despite its very com-
forting assurance. However, there is
nothing in the wide world like the flank,
outspoken acknowledgement of wrong
doing. We are so proud, so ccrtain‘of
we have fallen into error and committed
some grievous mistake the hurt to our
self-esteem acts as a barrier over which
we are seldom strong enough to rise ‘to
an honest confession of our misguided
judgement or even more serious trans-

Though it is hard to come out and
say: “I was in the wrong, please for-
give me,” the words once spoken are an
open sesame to a pure contentment that
you never can enjoy so long as You
cherish within your breast the know-
hide by high-handed doings that add to
rather than detract from the en ormit,v
of the offense committed.
Daughters, .go to your mothers with
every confidence. The sweet all-for-
givingness of the mother heart will
gloss over the faults and you and she
will be in sweeter, happier relationship
when no cloud of unacknowledged fault
lies between you. Husbands, be not
too great in your manly esteem to ad-
mit once in a while to your wives that
you are as liable to be mistaken as they
are.
yourselves; friends, dwell upon it also,
for in every relation in life ties are but
more closely bound and hearts more
surely cemented by those mutual con-
fidences in which wrong is admitted and
forgiveness asked.
With those mothers whose grown
sons are contemplating matrimony we
wish to have a little confidential chat
this afternoon. Of course we know
that you think no one in the world is
quite ,good enough for that boy of
yours. but just the same let the tender~
ness and the gentle acts of considera-
tion be for the youthful bride rather
than the new made husband.
It is a crucial period in a woman’s
life when she enters another family,
and many an hour of sorrow can be
avoided if at the outset John’s mother
puts her arms around the new daughter
and makes her feel she is a welcome
addition rather than an intruder in the
new home. Love your boy all that
yOu want to, but do not make your af-
fection for your son show up in_evident
contrast to the lukewarm feeling you
entertain for his wife.
Men are not so easily hurt. The
masculine heart is not so easily wound-
ed. Slights that would grieve the wo-
man would never be noticed by the,man;
therefore be hypocritical rather than
too honest in your expression of feel-
ing. Make the young girl feel at home.
You never will know the awful longing
she may experience for words of love
and comfort ; you, perhaps, deem her
cold when she is only hurt or reserved,
when she is doing her best to keep
back the tears of lonliness.
Even though she does not live under
your roof you can show in many ways
that you regard her as a daughter
rather than that dignified individual—
your son’s wife. If she is far away
from her own home try and make up to
her for its loss, and though at first your
own heart may cry out against the
division of an affection that has always
been yours entirely, in time you will
reap the reward of a greater love both
from the son and the daughter-iu-law.

Memorial to Bishop Williams.
The thousands of admirers of Bishop
Williams, both within and outside the
Episcopal Church, will be gratified to
learn that the proposition to erect a
memorial has at last taken definite
shape. It is proposed to erect, in con‘
nection with the Berkeley Divinity
had an active interest for so » many
years, a new library building, to be
designated as the “Williams’ Library,”
in which will be placed the .,valuablc
library of the school, comprismg about
25,000 volumes. This is now kept in a
building wholly unsuitable and greatly
exposed to danger of fire. The new
building will not only afford larger
accommodations, but will be made as
nearly fireproof as practicable. It is
proposed to raise the fund of $50,000
(which will not only pay for the build—
ing but provide for heat, light and"
aseries of two years, but work will be-
gin as soon as the trustees of the divin-
ity school receive supscriptions to the
required amount. It is a worthy ob-
Ject, and all the more worthy because
associated, as it will be, with the name
of the venerable and beloved Bishop.
