4. BDITORB. -BARNUM hopes to secut 'a wlito selephnitt-fromt the King of Sittn on the pretence (bat American brethren may be converted tto 3uldhism. Barnum does not drink ruin or use llie'alwgls has a healthy lie handy for tputposes of pnblic deception. Heoks a moral monstrosity 1he white ele1phant is a physical one.

A KNOWING one shows how circus lemonade is manufactured. One of 'thehief components is tartaric acid. 'When asked if it was harmless, the reply was: the very cloth -that the glasses stood on was turned as black as a coal. What nmust have been the condition of the stomach after ttho owners had downed three or four glasses of the stuff? I would never allow a child to drink it." Many coinInereial pickles are just as bad.

Mississippi HIepublicans have snbbed Chalmers, refused to hear him t'ld him to go about his dirty business. These words of the New York Tribune may be of value to any Southerner who hopes to plt.y the sAnie trie'ks: "Spurned by the I)emocrats and ruined by lila own invitations, which have cometack to 1lague their invelfttr, Chalmers concluded to take his rejected wares over to the Itepiblic an where they have been treated to what we trust is their limal kick. His fate is an encouragement in nany ways, and especially as an indication of an finprovement in moral tone In Southern politics."
