THE Chicago Post is addicted to
getting off sharp paragraphs, of which
the following are samples:
Brick Pomeroy informs his con
stituents'' that if elected to Congress
he cant be bribed." He forgets
that even Fernando Wood was once
an innocent babe, and that no man
is In danger of corruption until he is
tempted. Does he remember the sto-
ry of the oyer-confident youth who
thought he could drive the chariot of
the sun, and got his thin brains scat
tered all over Illyria for his rashness?
Let Brick beware. He is quite as
human as other people, and a good
deal more devlish.

The Terre Haute dry goods men
got into terrible calico fight on Sat-
urday last. One house opened the
battle by offering a common grade of
prints at six cents per yard; another
house Immediately marked down the
best prints to eight cents. This so
aroused the animosity of a third es-
adjustment that it commenced SELL
ing full patterns, of ten yards each,
for tl0elsty-ffUe cents. The excite

among calico wearers, and the rush
was unprecedented. One store sold
more than 5000 yards Of calico in
single dress patterns. The combatants,

AN OMINoUs DEMOCRATIC BREAK. There
was an election the other day in the Tenth
Ohio district to fill a vacancy in Congress. The
district at the last preceding election gave
some nine hundred democratic majority; but
in this last election the republican candidate
was chosen by two thousand seven hundred
majority. How? The democratic delegation
from Williams county insisted, in the district
party convention, on a resolution fatty repudi-
ating the bonded national debt; and the reso-
luton being lost by one or two votes the Will
liams county democracy refused to support
their party candidate, and hence the heavy
and unexpected majority for the republican.
And what does this signify3 1t signifies that
there is reputation faction in the democratic
camp which has resolved to make reputation
hereafter plank in the party platform or to
bolt against the party nominations. A very
ominous movement this for it will probably re-
suit, first, in breaking up the democracy, and
next, in reuniting them on the platform Of re-
pudiation.

THE TIARA AND THE LAY CROWNS. The
Papal infallibity question is approaching an
issue rapidly. French and English advices
by the cable state that the Council in Rome
will adopt the dogma of infallibility by accia-
nation on Easter Monday. To Roman
Catholic churchmen 1t will be very
proper occasion indeed for such work
the resurrection of the tiara. To the lay
crowns of Europe it will be serious,
most eventful, moment. We are not surprised,
therefore, to hear that the representatives Of
the different thrones now serving in Rome
have resolved not to be present at the public
session of the Council on that day. Can the
keys and sword be reconciled as in the time
of Peter? We shall soon see. The issue il
quite momentous.

THE LAWYERS AT THE CaARTEn.-One of
the evening journals has made discovery in
the constitution which leads to what it calls
ga nice question for the courts" as to the ineli-
gibility of some of the Mayors appointees
under the new Charter. The State constitu-
ton forbids members Of the Legislature receiv-
ing ''any civil appointment within this State
or to the Senate Of the United States" at the
hands of ''the Governor, the Governor and
Senate or the Legislature" Therefore it
argues that members Of the Legislature can.
not be appointed to Office by the Mayor.

CHARGES WHICH SHOULD Nor HAVE BEEN
MADR-We understand that the remains of Cen
eral Thomas, over all the roads from San Fran
cisco to Buffalo, were brought, not only free Of
charge, but with special honors from the seve-
raj railway companies along the line, in view
of the great services and glorious name of the
dead hero; but we further understand that
from Buffalo to Albany those honored remains
were charged by the railroad company as for
so much freight, and the attendants as SO
many everyday passengers. The same rule,
it is said, was applied TO General Grant and
his official attendants for their fare over the
Hudson River road, en- route to the funeral
at Troy. 1t strikes US that in both these cases
q great mistake was made, and that special
train for the remains Of General Thomas and
the company attending them, over the Centr oil
road, and special train from New York to
Troy for the President and company, free Of
charge, would have been the proper thing,
even as a stroke of business, and we say this
from some practical experience in business
affairs.

CABINET RUMoRs. We have rumors from
Washington that some changes in the Cabinet,
including Attorney General Hoar and Secre-
tary Fish, are impending; we have rumors
that no changes are thought Of for the present,
and that none are likely to occur. We cannot
tell which Of these rumors are true; but we
do most truly believe that the time has come
when q reconstruction of the Cabinet, EN-
bracing two or three, or even half a dozen, Of
the members, would be very acceptable to the
country, and simply upon the principle that
when the government seems to he doing
nothing when there is so much to do any
thing would be acceptable as change.

instance nice breakfast at the Union Club
House the other morning to the delegation
from Congress, on their return trip en- route to

Thomas at Troy. And why this breakfast? !?
Perhaps it was contrived by schell to learn
something about the Funding bill, and perhaps
be did learn something. Anyhow, that break
fast was good idea.

Boo-HOo The Atlantic cable conveys the
startling news that leading London news
paper urges the British government to de-
spatch Immediately frigate to the fisheries
near the North American colonies for the pur-
pose of watching the American man-of-war
ordered there. Of course this is intended to
frighten the Yankees. We doubt If 1t will
have that effect. By little aid from our gov
ernment the American fishermen would be able
to take possession of the fisheries, and, If
necessary, to annex the colonies, the frigate
and all that Great Britain claims in that part
of the American Continent. John Bull would
be wise to keep his frigate at home If he wants
peace and to hold on to his North American
possessions

THE Woes OF THE NEW DOMINION
Canada is unduly excited over the prospects
of a Fenian raid, and has more volunteers and
regulars under arms. In the meantime
Riels delegates, Scott and Richart, are on
their way along our northern frontier to
Ottawa, and such indignation is expressed in
Canada at the murder of Scott by the Fort
Garry insurgents that the government
has been called upon not to receive
them, while a brother of the murdered
man has charged them before police magis-
trate with being accomplices in the killing. In
the Nova Scotia Assembly numerous petitions
were read asking for release from the Con-
federation, and debate ensued in which the
tariff policy of>ehe New Dominion and an
American market for Nova Scotia were urged.
For all these evils there is one remedy, and
that is annexation. Can we present stronger
argument than simply to present these facts as
they reach us?

We publish to-day a sensation despatch
from Havana. II is characteristic In the
highest degree. The news furnished speaks
in the most eulogistic terms Of the Spaniards.
The Spanish troops fought nobly. Immense
numbers of the rebels are reported to have
been captured vast quantities are also said
to have given themselves up trustingly to the
well known clemency of the Spaniards; nearly
all the prominent insurgent leaders have volun-
tarily surrendered General Jordan has left the
country; Cespedes ispreparingt to follow his ex-
ample dissensons have broken out among the
insurgents and the greatest anarchy and con-
fusion prevail. The foregoing are some of
the most prominent points of the latest tele-
gram received from Puerto Principe in
Havana, and from the latter city forwarded
here II may, we are told, be '.justly re-
garded as official" We are well aware of the
capabilities Of the Spaniards to magnify MOLE
hills to the proportions of mountains, but in
this instance we think they protest too much.
It fairly takes away our breath. From time to
time during the present revolution in Cuba
we have heard glowing accounts Of Spanish
victories which subsequently proved igno-
minious failures The names of nearly a dozen
Spanish generals might be mentioned whose
wordy proclamatons nearly frightened the isle
from its propriety in descriptive particulars OF
what they were going to accomplish, and
yet they accomplished nothing and for their
pains were rewarded by being removed from
their commands. General Pueblo is the latest
example. 1t is well known that grievous dis
sensions exist among the Spanish leaders,
Valmaseda is ambitious to fill De Rodas' place.
The Captain General recognizes the necessities
of his situation and wants to make show.
The winter campaign has turned out a failure.
Something must be done to counteract its
effects The Captain General knows this and
possibly adopts this mode of buoying up tho
dropping spirits Of those in the island who yet
desire to perpetuate Spanish power in the

LOPEZ TURNED UP AGAIN. THAT brave
Paraguayan dictator, General Lopez, is ire
pressible. According to Brazilian accounts he
has been defeated, crushed or driven from the
country twenty times. But he always turns
up again. The news just received from South
America, by way of Lisbon, shows that he is
alive and active. The despatch says "Presi-
dent Lopez had suddenly turned upon and sur
prised his pursuers, winning quite victory.
It was thought at Rio Janeiro that this advan-
tage would result in the indefinite prolongation
of the war; The mendacious reports we have
received generally about Lopez through Bra
lillian sources are like those Spanish de-
spatches we receive from Havana relative to
Cuban afYairs-utterly unreliable and cooked
up for effect abroad.

THE ENGLISH BUDGET OF NATIONAL FL
NANCE was presented to Parliament yesterday
by the Chancellor Of the Exchequer. In this
important exhibit the Gladstone Ministry
makes creditable show. The revenue re-
ceipts of the fiscal year exceeded the estimates
BY f1,Sl9,OOO. Taxes which press the
most heavily on the masses of the
peoule will be RENTED and the ''sinews
of war" maintained for the Crown at
the same time. This result will render the
home policy of Mr.. Gladstone on other i'm
portaut subjects more acceptable to the mil
lions. John Bull will become tractable on the
Irish Church and land subjects under the in

PARTISAN MEANNEss. The latest specimen
of partisan meanness was that exhibited by
twenty -one democrats in Ohio who voted

THE New CITY GOVERNMENT appears to
give very general satisfaction The great
body of the democrats are satisfied with 1t, so
far the republicans are satisfied, the people
generally are satisfied, and only the unfor-
tunate leaders Of the defeated faction are dis
satisfied with the situation Of things and the
prospect before them. It is believed, how
ever, that the machine can be run without
them; but we shall see.
