DoN PIATT on His BEETHRES.-Don Piatt is
the Washington correspondent of the Cincin-
natl Commercial. In IA recent speech he thus
exposes to the atmosphere the Radical party.
of which he is the leader
But, my friends, as the sun breeds maggots
in dead dog, the sun of our Republicanism
seems to have called up from the boys, and
fens, and swamps, all the vile things that
crawl, and hiss, and fatten on the public veal.
There never was period in the history of
this or any other people that foul corruption
so poisoned humanity. 1t is no longer hidden
in dark places, az if ashamed or afraid. 1t
stalks abroad in the nOon-tde sun, making
day itself hideOus. While trade is Frustrated
and hard profits grow less or disappear, while
taxation grinds US down, thieves, with brassy
faces and greedy hands, ill our offices and
fatten on the spoils. Ring surrounds every
department, corrupting the ballot box and de-
basing the trusts, while all over the land the
poison extends, until peace TO private life has
disappeared and rogues hold high carnival.

An Eloquent Extract.

During the speech Of Col Dow, at our Last
Club meeting in Elko, after alludinp To the
rapid decay which had followed every race
and nation which hadindulged in the miscese-
nation theory of modern Republicans, and re-
ferring to the speech Of Hon. A. A. Sargent
at the Agricultural Fair in Sacramento. in
which he said there is no danger TO be an
pretended from the influx of the Asiatic
races, he closed his remarks on that subject
with this appeal to the voters Of Nevada:
Let no one hug the delusiye phantom To his
breast that there Is no danger" Ii we rest
qnietly and unmoved, while ignorance and
vice are being armed with the freeman's
weapon-the ballot; il we turn deaf ear to
the whisperings of evil that are borne to our
ears upon every wind that blows-who will be
lett 10 mourn when our glorious inheritance
snail have been trampled beneath the feet Of
vandal horde; when the fair faces of our
sons and daughters shall have been darkened
with more than savage gloom; when the quiet
oil the grave shall rest in the halls of our tera-
ture, arts and sciences; when the stars upon our
national banner shall be dimmed, it's stripes
erased, and their mingled glory forever faded?
Judging from the history of the past, of those
nations once proud and powerful, but now
weak, debased and demoralized, what history
of our national pathway will be written save n
parallel of those to which have referred.
Then let me invoke you, in the name of this
land that we love, in the name of the stored
br:yes who fell at Monmouth. at Yorktown,
and at Eutaw Springs; in the name of human
ity, morality and Christianity; in the name of
God and our native land To rally around the
standard of our Democratic faith; uufurl its
banner to the breeze, bearing upon its folds
that noble and patriotic declaration, This
Government was made by white men, and by
white men shall il be ruled

This story comes from California: "The
Rev. O. O. Ames breaches at San Jose,
but, being absent on furlough for his
health, Mrs. Ames fills the pulpit very
acceptably in his absence. On one re-
cent Sabbath, she got up in the morning
and prepared breakfast, washed and
dressed her baby, dressed her little
daughter for Sabbath-sohool, put her
baby to sleep, and sat down and review
ed her sermon before it was time to take
the cars for church, when she went to
the place OF worship and preached, to
critical audience"

AsTRoNoAucAI.- curious and very
rare plan etary poaition will occur on the
9th and 9th Of next month, to which no
attention has hitherto been called, and it
seems 30 have escaped the notice even of
the compilers Of the Astronomical Ephe-
merides. For the space of two whole
days and five hours, the planet Venus
will be behind the sun as viewed from
any part of the earth's surface. The
planet is then on the further side of her
orbit, and her relative motion is only
15H minutes Of arc daily, while at the
instant of conjunction she will be within
4S seconds of arc of the suns centre.
The bright planetary spot will apparently
touch the Western edge of the sun at II
O'Clock p. M, on the 9th of December,
Chicago time, and emerge from behind
the solar disc, on its Eastern edge, at 4
O'Clock on the morning of the 9th. The
phenomena Of immersion and emersion
will not be visible at Chicago, the sun
being below our horizon on both occa-
sions, but the two bodies may be seen
through the telescope as almost in con-
tact late in the afternoon of the 9th and
early in the morning of the 9th of De-
cember. The emersion will be invisible
in Europe. The phenomenon is about
as rare as the transit of the same planet
across the SUMS disc, which OCCURS only
once on the average in fifty eight and a
half years. The next transit will occur

"That, too, is my property" he said,
with poor attempt at bravado; "and
I must ask you at once to explain how
it came into your possession"
"Let me first tell you how it came
into yours" said. "You took it, this
morning, out of the pocket of young
lady who sat next to you in an omnibus.
At that time it contained, besides a
small sum of money, diamond ring,
now in my custody, and which 1 mta an
to restore to its owner tomorrow. Are
you sati fied!"
"a lie an internal lie !" he said, with
an angry stamp of the foot.
"You are not satisfied I" said. "Such
being the case, let us adjourn to the
nearest police station, and each tell his
own story to the inspector. For my
part, L am quite willing to bear the
brunt of such n proceeding. Are you

"Sold! most damnably sold" cried
Tracy. hinging up his clenched hands

and cane; then facing me, he said
"You villain! You have tricked me

yet. Next time it will be my turn, and
| advise you to beware
"If you are not out of this house in
two minutes" said, 81 will give you

called next morning at the Office of
the Secretary OF the Omnibus Company,
and found, as l had anticipated, that
the young lady had left her address
there. To this address, which was in q
certain west end square, hurried as
fast as q cab would take me. l found
the young lady, and the old woman
with whom she was living as COM
ptnion, terribly put about by the loss Of
the ring, and therefore proportionately
pleased at its recovery.
The first visit was not the last, by any
means, but all the rest merely concerns
