THE NEXT CONGRESS.

Conjecture is already busy with the actor
OF the next Congress. The very large mum
Der of Democrats elected make it certain that
if the revenue reformers who are republic
cans otherwise, choose to coalesce with the
Democrats, these two may have the organi
cation of Congress and control its action
Such an union for comprising a common end
IS by no means improbable. The f11e trade
republicans are as hostile to high tariffs as
are Democrats and denounce the wrongs
which spring from them with even more in
dignation The two acted together during
the late session, and are very certain to in
the coming one, unless great notifications
are made in the duties which is not proba-
bic. The protectionists have too many axes
TO grind and Congress has been too much
their plant servant, for them to think of any
letting up now. If the coalition shall really
lake place, revenue reform republican will
probably be made Speaker, with fair repre-
sentation of Democrats in the minor offices
and on the Committees. 1t will form the
key note oil the Presidential campaign of
1872 in which the question of reform will be
the controlling and decisive one The re-
publican party must itself carry out the
measures, or go down before the irresistible
onset of the people in the next ca mpaign.

We hope neither the journal, or its correspond

way those duties are performed by the threats to
ventliate the radical proceedings in liquor prosecu
tons! Ellsworth American.

the American give a little more specific bill
of particulars. Let it state how manv have
been mol pressed from wholesale liquor
selling into the retail branch of the business,
and also how much public morality has been
thereby improved. The handling of liquor
prosecutions by the radicals of Hancock is an
example of the truth of the old adage that

Tho next intelligence from the bark was
that of her arrival at Cape de Verde Islands,
where she put in for water. A most stupid
blunder on the part of the man who supplied
her with that necessary fluid before sailing,
created this necessity. Having so much
water to supply, large lot Of empty oil
casks were bought, and a man employed to
cleanse them with quicklme, fill with clean
water and put on board. He left the lime
all in the casks, and as a consequence the
mixture of oil, lime and water made thin
soap, not exactly the fluid for drinking.
The good water. however, lasted across the
ocean, and fresh supply was taken at the
islands.

WAS THERE BRIBERY !?

1t will be seen by our report of the Railroad hear
ing, that the charges of corruptng influences in the
Belfast city government, to carry the lease to the
Maine Central, was made. 1t will be seen that Mr.
Miken denied its truth. We think it high time
that the stories which have long been whispered
about by some of the present Directors of the Maine
Central, should be either proven or abandoned. If
they have the proofs, which they say they have,
that large sum Of money was used to secure the
lease, let them be produced, or else hold theil
peace. Their charges have been publicly denied
and they must now be held as slanderers unless the

The town of Camden voted on Saturday tc
loan ten per cent OF its valuation in aid of the
Bay d River Railroad from that town to
Rockland. The vote was 3S7 to 1903, or only
to over the necessary two thirds. But fol
the bad faith of the Maine Central towards
the Belfast road, this vote would have been
much stronger That repudiating example
naturally excited a fear that it might become
the rule among railroad corporations when
their apparent interest should dictate such a

We see that the Bangor Wing has become the adj
vocate of the Maine Central Railroad, in its unjust
fable course towards the Belfast road. 1t says
The Directors OF the Maine Central claimed that Col
Wides was an interested party and ought not to sit 10
judgment upon his own work. They willing to
submit the matter to the other gentlemen
their decision.
The Wing has more zeal than knowledge. Col
Wides was one of the Railroad Commissioners at
the time the contract made, providing that the
Board should settle differences. He was also Chief
Engineer of the Road. AS legal proposition,
could the terms of the contract be changed by any
powers less than those that made and ratified it?
Could the Directors undo the work of the stock
holders, and submit the questions to different ar
bitraton, which would be the effect of leaving off a
member? Col. Wildes was Informed, by the best
legal authority, that his withdrawal would render
the award null and Woodland like an honorable
man, determined to do his duty, he remained AS
if determined to misrepresent the matter, an Assoc
ciate Press despatch of later date, is garbled in
the Wing by the omission of the word ''not" so as
to read that che could withdraw without affecting
the legality of the decision" If the Wing desires
to do justice, it will publish the substance of this
correction.

Baltimore gave Democratic majority Of
5000, although about $3.50 negro voters
were registered. The Baltimore American,
an intensely Radical journal, says the result
of the election proves 'that the negro is an
element of weakness, and not of strength, "
as was supposed, to the Radical party, The

AFATAL, but cool and determined duel took
place on the 9th ult., seven miles below Mem.
phis, Tenn, between James Brzzolar, o,d
George r. Phelan, prominent members &c A.

the duel were of deadly character; the wean-
ons selected were Colts navy reporters: the
distance fifteen PAGES. A steam tug convened
Mr.. Brizzolara to the scene of the duel, small
skill performing that service for his antagonist.
The tug on nearing the shore passed the skiff,
Mr.. Brizzolara coolly standing at the stern
smoking cigar. AS the skiff subsequently,
aapproached towards the bow of the tug, Mr..
fhelan, seeing his opponent, politely raised his
hat, which act of courtesy was as politely re-
sponded to by Mr.. Brizzolara. After landino
q short consultation was held by the friends n
the eombatants, the principals shortly after
repairing to their respective positions. On be-
ing placed on the stand and their weapons
gwen them, the question "are you ready?'' was
asked by the seconds and responded to affirm !.
atively by Mr.. Phelan. Mr. Brizzolara. how
ever, cried out "not ready" and coolIy uniting
MS pistol between his knees, proceeded to turn
up ms shirt-cuffs, which had gotten down over
ms Maids and annoyed him. As soon as this

Political Notes.

Pie President has removed Collector Moses
Fl. Grinnell of New York and appointed him
Naval Officer. Thomas Murphy is appointed
Collector, Thomas Hllhouse Assistant Treas
urer and Noah Davis Dist. Attorney. These
appointments are regarded as victory for
Senator COnklin over Senator Fenton.
THERE is good joke on Brooks. His paper
the other day berated the present Radical
Congress" roundly for its "tyranical" census
law, while the fact is that the census is being
taken under an old law passed by Demo
cratic Congress! In great many things,
Brooks is still Know Nothing.
PRESIDENT GRANT has expressed to Sem
ator his belief that the interests ofthe country
demanded the ratification of the San Domingo
treaty. He did not comment on the votes of
avowed opponents of the treaty, but criticized
parties who led him to believe that they would
vote for the ratification of the treaty, but
whose names are recorded against it. --s--.-

BY the Convocation of Canterbury, begun on
the 23d. Twenty members Of the company
were present, including the Bishop of Llaudafi

From Berlin comes the news that as soon
as soon as the infallibility dogma is proclaim
ed, great and powerful agitation will spring
up in Bohemia for national church. The
four main points of the forthcoming reforma-
ton are the introduction of the Bohemian
language in divine service the participation
OF the laity in church government, the aboli-
ton OF the tonsure of the priests, and their
dispensation from the vow of celibacy. 1t is
said that large proportion Of the Younger
clergy has already been gained over to the
cause, aud the way is to be paved for coming
events by demonstrations of the masses. The
great majority of the most liberal German
churches are not supposed to be ripe as vet
ior secession, and it would almost appear as il
the bohemian churches were advancing in
Inc direction OF heresy far more rapidly than
the German.
