The Duty of all Republicans.

THB Republican party in Pennsylvania as
shown by the result of the last election is in
the minority. There is in our State ma
jority of some seven hundred votes against us,
and in our city about two Thousand. Such being
the case it is necessary for us to adopt a series
of tactics which will be adapted to our new po-
sition. We can no longer count on an assured
two thousand in the State. We must fight
for all we get, and we cannot begin to fight
too soon. There is nothing so disastrous to
party as to over-estimate its own strength,
and to slight that of its adversares. Better by
far give too much credit to the opposition, than
deny them one iota of what they have.
Recognizing their full power, we call upon the
members of our party to oOork, and work at
once. There is now about two months be-
tween to-day and the day of election, and two
months is not a moment too long for active
exertOn. What lost us the campaign last
year was lack of organization. We had not
that accurate system of subdivision of labor
which characterized the Democracy. With
them every man, however insignificant his in
flueDce, had place. Each one had work to
perform. Iney dlu not rest content Win
Ward Committees; they descended to precincts
and to blocks and to rows. Every Democrat
knew exactly who was going to support the
ticket in his square, and he saw that ne voted
on the day of election, that he was furnished
with pamphlets, that he was fiattered with
tickets and letters and circulars, and every
man was brought out. This ls what
we must do and commence to do at once. Let
the precincts be subdivided aud the various
committees know exactly who are our enemies
and who our friends. Not only 10 this the
duty of the committees, but it is also the duty
of members of the party to aid such organiza
tions as are being form d. Let each belong to
some club. There are ward organizations,
Grant clubs, and even division clubs in all the
various portions of the city. They want local
support. There, above all, are the "Invinci
bles," time -honored and thoroughly alive
organization, to which all the younger mem.
beTs OF the party would do good service aud
give themselves personal satisfaction by join
| ing. Both by associating with organizations
and lending individual aid to assist commit
tees, each man can do his share in the good
work and make our triumph secure.

TIE Social EVIL has been boldly grappled
with by the new Chicago "Soross" or WomeAs
Club. In recent discussion on this delicate
subject. the members OF the club proceeded to
give their opinion as to- the best manner and
means of reaching and reforming those mern-
bers OF their sex leading lives OF sin aud shame.
One lady doubted the feasibility, In most cases,
at least, OF retaining abandoned women.
Another thought the opprobrlum of this vice
should fall equally on men. Another "a doctor)
heated the subject In sanitary point of view,
and thought that women could accomplish
much more in the way Of reforming the evil
than could men. Another protested against the
inequality of the law as regards men and
women, and thought 1t would be we'll TO get up
o petition on behalf of the uujusty treated
women. The discussion ended as suoh discus
sions usually do, without any feasible sugges-
attained. .' ' .-

What VIII He DO2

1T seems that one Dupont has heretofore pre-
sided over the Supreme Bench of the State of
Florida. But as he was still thoroughly in
sympathy with the '1ost cause" his judicial
existence was ignored by those engaged in the
reconstruction of the State on loyal and re-
publican basis. Dupont is therefore in bad
way. Apparently too absorbed in the dis
charge of his judicial functions to be aware of
the fact that the attempt of Southern dema.
gogues tooverthrow the authority ofthe national
Government has utterly failed, Dupont still be-
lieves himself to be Chief Justice of Florida,
refuses to recognize successor in the person
elected by the people under the new Constitu-
tion, declares the reconstruction acts null and
void-in short is wholly and completely given
over to Seymourism. Under these distressing
circumstances, it becomes an exceedingly in
terestiDg inquiry as to what Dupont will do in
his perplexity. That he will foam and fret
until November is to be taken for granted.
Whether he intends anything more serious or
alarming just at present is a matter of doubt.
But certain it is that, if Seymour and Blair are
elevated to power, Dupont will at once enter
Into the revolutionary business along with the
latter, and from the nature of his grievance at
the hands of loyal Florida, will prove
himself to be a stalwart and perchance for
midable champion of the new rebellion. He
will not be alone. Every Office in the recon
structed States, from the highest to the low
est, will become an object OF similar strife
between the present loyal incumbeuts aud the
Rebels whom they displaced. This state Of
affairs alone will constitute anarchy, even if
Rebel claimants to official position do not
resort to force OF arms to get another opportu-
nifty at the flesh-pots of political Egypt. This
| strife will constitute but one result, however,
of the success Of the Tammany revolutionists,
and it becomes all sober minded, order-loving
citizens to ponder the matter we'll before they
give in their adherence to the party which is
seeking thus to revive the "Lost Cause"

nation revivi6ed, when in dread silence we
STOOD mp mute to count our dead, and
vainly hoped that the sin so tenderiy nursed
for years was slain with all its long train Of
sad consequences, it was again the duty Of
Thaddeus Stevens to sound the alarm, TO
warn us Of another battle with the same foe
In another field. He who was to guard US
proved false to his trust. By birth, by sta
tion, by oath bound to reunite his distracted
country, Johnson treacherously plunged as
into new perils, aud the battle was renewed
with brains instead Of bullets, with hearts
iustead of hands. Thaddeus Stevens becomes
the leading and fitting representative Of an
outraged people in arraigning the head Bxeou-
tive OF the nation for treason against the law,
and in the long series of measures by which
the triumph of the Congressional system OF
reconstruction was achieved.
These eminent, peculiar, and long continued
public services could only have been performed
by man endowed with remarkable personal
qualities. Their seeds were sown in this sim
gular combination Of rare intellect, undaunted
courage, brilliant wit, devotion to the true
welfare of the human race, and intense scorn
of the sophistries of ignorance and slavery,
which distinguished Thsddeus Stevens. By
his death the nation has lost her great parlil-
mentary leader, and freedom, justice, and
humanity their noblest advocate.
