SUGGEsrroN.-In looking over tho papers, we
find in the opposition press and orators r.ightful
diversity Of opinion in reference to the true position
Of the democratic party and of the administration
Some speak of both extinct, and point to the re-
publicans as the future hope of the State. Now,
gentlemen, there are not three republicans in Con-
gress who agree upon the course (any one course)
their party should pursue. in the future. We ven
ture the suggestion, and it may be received in a
friendly way, that the opposition had better take
sures for immediate census Of their supporters.
We are clear that they are just leaning too
heavily upon fractured reeds. Let them take cen
sus, and be to require of him who takes it that
he shall not include the names of dead men on the list
of republicans.

HEADS Ur.--The republicans of New York CON
tinue to insist that in the passage Of the conference
bill, they have achieved grand triumph. We beg
permission to suggest that, in taking that ground,
they febuke their entire republican representation
in Congress, and their entire republican press, for
they voted and fought against and denounced II to
the last But we agree with the New York repnbli-
cans, it WAS great triumph for them. If they de-
sired to do right it was triumph. If they would
remove a vcxed question from politics and relieve
fatigued and disgusted country it was triumph
If they would put down scctionalism and build up
unionsm, il was a triumph.

ticket system by which travellers between distant points
relieved of all anxiety and trouble with regard 10 the
transportation Of their baggage Such is the perfection
TO which this system has already been carried that per-

from the Baltimore Sun places In strong point Of view

Heretofore the ticket system has ended With the rail
