AIKE\, Charleston, and Greenvi:'c asked to be excluded from the act < f 1S96 probibiting county treasurers from publishing itemized statements in the newspapers. Fairfield remains in the act. Taxpayer No. 1 and Taxpayer No 2 will have to see our delegation about it. ARKANSAS has a Senator who h:; never made a speech in the Sen te, although he has been there six years. Rhode Island likewise has one who has kept silent. South Carolina has one who has possibly made one speech. Perhaps, the country at large wouid be better off, if we bad more silent Senators. IT is all very well to cut salaries when they are too h'gh, but cheap work is generally poor woi k. It seems to us that :the salary paid our County. Stpervisor is little encugh. His services are fully worth what he is now getting. It is not h.-)w cheap we can get public officers to serve us tht should be our principal aim, but horr efficiently. Some men might content to take an office now paying $2000 for $10 per month, but the state would be worse off for their services. SENATOR ARCUER wants to tkach the people good manners by legi-lation. He offered a bill making it a misde meanor to spit on the fl-or of a6irch or the flonr of a court hou-e.> Anot ber illustration of trying to re'uare things, which must be lett i,~ adjust tham selvs. Good breeding must teach a man that in a church is -not the place 4t tand the Geperassermblv, Testatiutes onght not to be burdened with such legislation, bnt if so, then an act should be passed to cover all of - the rules of good manners. It should. he made a misdenieanor for a man not to- list his hat to a lady, not to offer her a seat in a crowded room, car or elsc * ~ where. I*. should be 'made a mnisde meanor to spit on anybody's privat& fioor. It should be a misdemennor to do or not to do a few thousand other things, .which are considered 3reper or improper in polite society. The truth is that if all i0 e raies of good manners were foramated, it would cover a great deal of space. Af ter all, our manners must be liarn?ed at home. Good manners are a credit te any people, but we mnst not look to legis lation to cnltivate them. THE argument is all on the side of the public;printing bill. One. of the reasons urged against the bill is that bigher prices will *be pa-id. Those who make this point show t bat they have not even considered the:w >rds of the bill. It expressly provides th~at no higher rates shull be ipaid (11 an are now paid to the public pr:nmer. A maximum rate being fixed by law, it is idle to t-clk about the public prinming costing any more than..the limit fixed. * The bill requires the bidder to whom the work is given to furni,h a bond, so tbat the State will be fully f>ratected against irresponsible partief. This is a plain businessimat ter, and th's ~bond is required to be fallgsecured. If the surety is not sufficient,-the anthorities have the right to reject the bond. The real merit of the bill is that the printing is let to the lowest bidder, and the State will reap !the benefit of competition. We have no objec;ion to* this work being done by the present public printer, and we are liberal enongh to wish that he may succeed in so managing his business that be may relieve himusely of the buidens which he now has to bear. But no citize 1 has the right to demand that he must thrive at the expense of the State. If the General Assemb y can he~ the printing done cheaper, and save the taxpayers money, they should db it. It is not a question of politics; it is not a question of whether it is to the interest of Mr. A or Mr. B to pass' this bill. It is simply a question of Swhether it is to the inter st of the tax payers. Old People.

Washington, Feb. 4.-I a-' assured by one who asserts that he has it from the best ant horityv. that President clevelan:d intelis ~to devote the rc mainder of hi; life to the study of theology. That, says my informant, is the exph1nation of the remova! of the President and his family to Priuc - toll. "I. is an iuheited trait of the Cleve land family to dwell upon things sacred," .ays ;bi; gent!c:nan, who, i may be stated, has ben a frequent and welcome caller at the w' i:0 house, "and as 31r. ,leveland i:creaAes in years, he has developed anew those serious tendenciet which he h::d quite eor:y in life, but which were tem porarily interrupted by hi, en ance into poli:ics, when he was inpelied to conduct bijnneif after the maiuer of politicia1s of the kind which oten be sins a greater c..reer by rou-bing in the war' school. Clevel ..d was never quite in his en- cnt among the city politicia:Is of Duffalo, ' t it was necessar he should do as 4hey did that the gryater good of after years might be accomplished by. his eleva tion to the Governorship and the Presidedcy. "During all theses years, when tj i -e d asomewhat riotous way of living, the undercurrent of piety ran strong within bim, and he was at times tempted to break away from it all and assume holy orders, as mnor'e than one of his nearest relatives had done. But to turn upon one's lively companion.is not the casiest- thing in life and Cleveland remained with them, doing as the Buffalo Ro.mans did, and ianidedl in the Prcskd'acy. a "If the PrcsiTent has not s.hown evi dence of deep religious convictionsl while he has been an inhabitanlt of the White House, it a.u mainly because he detested all that would be construed into an effectation of a quality that few would have believed was niatural or sincere; but I can assure vou that the feeling was theC e, andi far stronger in its influence upon his drily- walk and conversation that even his most frequent a;sociates would have be lieved. His fishing excursions were really for the purpose of meditation, and when.he was supposed to be gu ning for ducks, O th 11o feeling more exalted tea a love of such iport, he was conning and.pondering~ those ab struse problems wilen must lie close to the soul of even that man who has suffered the grousest violation of his spiritual bei:g by imperative associa joni with the oratal c'>mpanionshi' that is to be found in its highest de velopment in the lowest circles of po litical life. What direction the thoughts of the PreAident took at these solemn moments no one can tell, and no one should attemnpt to discover. Suffice it to say that it has been hinited mcrely in the~ most delicate way, by some who wcre is con imons on these marine ex:ursionsF, thlat fish and duck were the least of ils ambitions andi that i olation1 and miitation, such as the antique ter:mits were wout to seek, were th.e grand purposes which led him~ 'o frequtently to divorce himself from his, official duties at moments that~ were a!mnoet critical in the public work. "This will furraish a cin to the re markable decision of the President to pint himself at Princeton, the axis around which revolves the best that is left of the old orthodoxy. There in affectionate association with em'nent professors, the knightly defenders of the Calvinist vie- - of this life and the life to come, the ex-President will live the life of a pure and godly per son, aelving ever deeper and deeper into the mysteries of the phsychic forces, bringing to-bear upon them ti,at grasp of thought that has marked his treatment of so miany public questions. [t was this impulse that le:1 him. possibly with unc.ne and short-sighted ea!, into the moveenlt for arbirra ion, and the mistakes which have ap peared in thsote prospective treaties. which Live Oreat Britain such mighty material adivan:'tes are tranceable clearly to C.evelend's growing ten iency to look up,mn tihe spiritual sde of all thirg "I do not meani to s et tat Mr Clevelat.du w:i to: mally ente theC pai pi. t h wi" ~-ll eitnag to am.u degre in - sprtmal tech.'ing iO <10 n doa t. but I believe he 1W c :vi ed be can iecomip ih gnar ' ol.......ho (: in h.I - . o> fo in !

I look upon this as really the greatest act of Mr. Cleve land's life. It is a glorious example for the youth of the country, for one who has won the higheat public honors to prove by his later life that all worldly aggrandiz3ment is but foolish ness and vexation, and hat the true ambition of a really great mind should be to ponder and solve the mysteries of eternity, giving only that attention that is unavoidable to the petty con siderations of what shall be eaten and worn.' I do not vouch for the truth of this view of Mr.* Cleveland's momentous conclusiou 'o ",eitle" at Princeton, but st seems to offer an explanation of somethingetbat has lhither4 been un- I explained.

Robinson Crusoe's island, which was reported to bave been swallowed up by the ea, is doing business at its ld stand. What was swallowed up turns out to have been certain kegs of ruim, which formed p".rt of the cargo f a ship which saild~ for the island from Valparaiso. The captain kept systematically tipsy and could not fmnd the island he was after, and had to invent a story to justify his return to port. The fable teaches (what some fable eaches every day) that we must not elieve all we read. If any word omes, for instance, that Caba hasi een blown up to keep it from the Spanards, don't believe -it.
