Picture Of the Republican
Party by a Republican,

A sprightly Republican paper down
east--the Springfield Mass Republi-
can--has limned its party most admirably.
We reproduce the picture:
"The fact is, the republican party isn't
a party yet, and still, worse, isn't likely TO
be at precen. What it needs more than
anything else. is definition of itself, a
discipline, boundary. habitatron, doors
to let people in, walls to keep them in, and
= recognized headof the house to look up to
rs a 'prcvider.' It has none of these
thingstnow, but inhabits sort of ten acre
lot, half the bars of which are down three
quarters of the time. You admit one
squad, and another squad escapes at the
same moment. Every man fights for his
hand, like the Highland Chieftain. 1t is
'ant-nigger' in st. Louis, to save Mr.. Blair;
protectionism in Pennsylvania to accomo-
date Henry G.. Carey and save two or three
congressman; old fashioned whiggery in
Ohio, so that Tom Corwin may make him
self at home; Fillmoreism in Kentucky
and Maryland, so that Humphrey Marsh
all and Henry Winters Davis may be re-
elected: truck and dicker in our State
committee, so that Burlingame may not DE
beaten, and SO on. A Gardnerites or a
straight republican of 1857, or even a
Fillmoreite of 1 56, is just as gooda repub-
lican as anybody. There is no risk in de-
serting, for the deserters are rot shot as
they are in the Democratic and every
other we'll regulated party"
