Tae Eveyxixa Star will be sent by mail to sny address in the United States or Canada —— From fighting about the site for the fair, the various cities and sections threaten Row to fall afoul of each other over the ques- tien, where the old frigate Constitution shall pass her declining years. Portsmouth has her snd wants to keep her; New York thinks there is place in the navy yard just across the East iver which would be filled with dignity and meatness by the veteran of the Yankee line of battle ships, and now Boston puts in a plea, based om the fact that the Constitution was built in her waters. The only way to settle all these conflicting claims is to follow Command- eat Meade’s suggestion and bring her down here to the capital of the nation. Here is where are preserved the relics of the great he- roes and statesmen, that the patriotic people of America who make at least one pilgrimage to the city which belongs to them all may have their patriotic impulses stirred by the sight of se many reminders of the glories of the repub- lie’s career. What is more fitting than that the vessel which bas survived all her cotemporaries and s host of the later generations of warcraft, and to whose prowess America’s success in the war of 1813 was largely due, should have her last resting place among the other monuments and trophies, not of any one state, but of the nation? Her name, as well as her fame, is national The appeal of Dr. Holmes, “Aye, tear ber tattered ensign down!” which spared her from demolishment nearly forty years ago, aroused public senti- ment, not in a section, but throughout the country. By all means bring the noble old frigate to Washington. She belongs to the United States as a whole. a New York has the proud satisfaction of being unique, or nearly so, in many respects; and ap- pearances indicate that she will retain the same distinction by her insistance upon the locstion of the world’s fair within her borders. No- body—or scarcely anybody—else seems at all anxious to have the fair held in the commercial metropolis. A striking commentary on the way the question is looked at outside of Man- batten Island and its immediate neighborhood is furnished by the result of a canvass made by the Independent to procure the opinions of prominent officers of the federal government, members of Congress, governors, eminent pro- fessional men, ete. There were fifty-eight re- sponses, the mass of them being divided thus: For Washington, 27; for New York, 20; for Chi- cago, 6 The force even of the twenty voters for New York was tempered by the fact that al- most all of the persons casting them were tied to that city either by residence or by some di- rect material interest. New York should now recognize the propriety of bowing her head to Washington's superior claims and turning in with the rest of the Union to make our show s brilliant success, Se ee aaa Why would not this be a good time to make any improvement tbat is going to be made for some years in the road-bed of Pennsylvania avenue? The resurfacing will include the re- laying of the car tracks: why not embrace the opportunity to put down flat rails in place of the obnoxious sort now inuse? It will include also the paving, with blocks, of the space be- tween the tracks: why not kill two birds with one atone, and put there some form of hollow, or grooved, or tunnelled blocks, which can be used as conduits for pipes and wires, and thus wave the tearing up of the asphalt surface in the gutters or other parts of the general drive- way every time repairs are necessary? What- ever underground public work is still in an ex- perimental stage cam be handled with better effect under a block than under a sheet cover- ing; and probably whatever trifle of extra ex- pense might be involved in the first purchase of material would be more than made up by the ultimate saving both in money and in popu- Jar convenience. a ‘The German emperor is not opposed on gen- @al principles to the bestowal upon himself of titles and distinctions by foreign nations, and recent English remembrances of this character are accepted by him with thanks, but he does ‘object to the imposition upon him of the Sa- mean title of “dead baby” and to serving in effigy as the leading personage in the Samoan “dead-baby dance.” Malietoa as restored king feels his royal oats. He will be prudent to reserve for a time his opinion of the govern- ment which took him from his throne and made him an exile, and when be is in position to call names he can find some more forcible and sppropriate titles to bestow than that of “dead baby.” However, he is only partly civi- lized, in vocabulary as in other matters, and Goubtless does the best he can. $$$ —___ Circumstances alter cases. The telegraph company thought that the authority given to it by act of Congress to erect poles and wires along post-roads was of sufficient substance and value to prevent the city of New York from tearing down its poles and wires which ob- structed the streets, the post-roads running through the city, and in respect to wires fastened to the elevated railways ita contention was sustained. When the question of a reduc- tion of rates to the government in view of this and other privileges is under discussion, the company finds that the au- thority given by the government is of no value whatsoever. $$$ This in the seventieth birthday of the editor of the New York Sun, and the fact deserves to be noted asa timely honor toa giant among the journalists of the country. Of wourse every newspaper man knows how thoroughly and completely wrong Mr. Dana's opinions are on certain points, which need not be mentioned because they vaty sccording to ‘Ye point of view of each observer; but notwithstanding ‘these differences of opinion all will doubtless agree to recognize his commanding position in American journalism.
