COroners inquiries into wholesale slauehters
generally result in meaningless verdcts cen
surfing nobody. We judge that the one which
seeks to settle the primary cause Of the falling
of the building in Thirty ffth-st is Fastening
to such an impotent conclusion. 1t ought to
be understood that in this matter the Inspect
ors of Buildings are on trial. 1t is incumbent
on them to show that one of their number
after approving the plans, also examined the
brick and watched the mixing of the mortar,
and approved the same before permitting its
use. The public suspects that the expensive
Bureau of Inspectors of Buildings is an arrant
swindle as at present administered; and we
imagine the present examination. if properly
conducted, will go far towards establishing the
fact.

upon letter written by citizen of Memphis

by our remarks, sent them to, The Memphis

"diabolically false and Malignant The appeal
reproduced our article, but save it's CORE

Tile Detroit advertiser quotes this language
IA justifying its assertion that we have as
sumed authority to erpel those who do not
accent our Tariff notions from the Republican
party! We submit that what may have orig
inally been an error in The Advertiser is now
proved by it deliberate, inexcusable untruth.
Again and again we have said in effect
cc-Traders have exactly the same rights
ain tho Republican party as we have-the
"same rights as PrOtcctiOnists-nether less
"nOr mOre.' But no man has any moral

candidates. Those who do this are not " ex-
PEELED" from the party they conspire to de-
feat-they 90 out of it on their own motion.
We can only counsel and urge them to return
The TRIBUNE has in good faith supported
every upright and able Republican candidate
for Congress, whether he were a Free-Trader
or q PrOtectionist. When we take the opposite
course we shall thereby put ourselves out of
the Republican party; and, should any one see
fit to assert that THE Detroit AdUertiSer has put
us out we authorize that journal to give it's
calnmniator the lie direct.

arch which WA TO prove panacea for all the
ills of Spain. For two years wo have been
told by the monarchists that the mere fact of
the proclamation of king would silence fac
ton, consolidate public opinion, and rally at
once to the support of the throne all men Of
good will. Instead of this we see the most
virulent eruption of party spirit that has been
witnessed since the revolt of Topete in the Bay
of Cadz. The world has ontgrown these pue-
rile devices for the misleading and soothing of the
people. Kings cannot be manufactured to-day
ny political managers and BET up in cold blood
for the healing of the nations. At all events
if they are set up, the people will not worship,
and the nations will not be healed. There is
no longer any inherent strength in the mere
name of King. IL dynasty has served its
purpose and outliyed its use, its fall cannot be
long delayed and when it is down, not all
the Kings doctors aud all the EmperOr's men
can make it as 10 was.

Tho little seed planted in Colorado in the valley Of

their tents there early in March. Starting under
excellent auspices, and with the valuable experiences

migratons from all our populous centers.

We have never been satisfied that the late

we're conducted i9s;fte right spirit or proper

OF the Wizard Chickamauga" it cannot
be said, rs of Ulysses of old, that be scatters
ambiguous expressions among the vulgar On
the contrary, tho clearness and perspieacity OF
his utterances compe' the dullest comprehen-
son and make the slOwest blood to eurdle.
The wizard who does not give us the name by
which he IL known in the flesh through the
medium of yellow handbill, addresses him
self to the community OF "Ghouls" resident
between the Tennessee and the ChattahoOchee,
and commands them to enact variety of bony
and supernatural exploits They are to - ride
" in the smoke of every engne,p and wash the
"rust from their swords IN the blood
"of anybody who intends to vote
"the wrong ticket = they are to "clutch them
"when asleep in the train" and drag them
away within their pale realm" where they
win doubtless attempt their political CONVEX
sion, falling which, they will, after the manner
of that hungry and unpleasant Brotherhood,
essay their degluttion. A ghoul with rusty
sword riding in the smoke of an engine, and
dragging somnolent passengers ont of the
sleeping car for the purpose of securing the
purity of the ballOt-box, is one of che finest
conceptions we have recently met with in lit
erature, and we hasten to transmit
TO the wizard assurances of our distin-
guished CONSERVATION. He has composed
and issued very superior document,
and we have no doubt that the Democratic
press throughout the country would like to be
put on his exchange list One of his handbills
ought certainly to be sent to Senator McCreery,
who might read it to the Senate as o touching
evidence of the peaceful humility with which
tho down trodden people of the South endure
their manifold expressions. The subscription
of this eloquent handbill implies that it en-
anates from the Grand CyclOps of tfo Il. X. H.,

The 81 Paul Pioneer IA still reluctant to sur
render the hope of triumph in the organiza
ton Of the next House by a coalition of Demo-
Gratis and "Revenue Reformers." II says:
"Tng TRIBUNE says that Democrats will not vote for
any man for Speaker who IL not Democrat. Whence
The TRIBUNE learns this know not for certainly tho
Democrats going TO do that which will give legi-a-
tive effect TO their views, and which will lead TO the
embedding OF the forces OF their ProectOnist opponents
They would not certainly permit their enemies to prevail
when the strategy that would work their defeat
IA OF such simple elaboration The Democrats OF tho
next Congress- In tho election Of Speaker Of the HOnse
will probably be discreet enough TO DO just as tho
Democrats the next LegslatureO OF Minnesota VIII be
inclined do in the election Of United States Senator,
viz. TO give their support to man who may have Deon
or was now IN political association with the Republicans,
but who Ia PrOtectionist nor supporter OF the
present Tariff and who would. by his aggressive and ef
fecye action in favor Of Revenue, Civil Service. and
other reforms bring himself practically within ne Demo
cratic party by consistent support Of such measures as
would express the Democratic idea Of political pro-
gTess."
The Pioneer parallels the mistake of the
ghost-fearin sailor, who, having cut several
pieces from the upper and 5Owed them to the
lower end of his blanket, in order to warm
his feet--left bare by pulling the blanket over
his frightened head-was amazed to find bis
feet bare and cold as ever.
By-and-by, The Pioneer will learn that there
arc those in Congress, contemptuOusly charac-
terized as "Pig Iron Democrats" who will not
be used to play tho little game it doats On.
They will vote for the Democratic candidates OF
a Democratic caucus, asking no questions;
but, when the only choice afforded them is
one between two Republicans, they will, at all
oyants mt voto for the anti prOtectiOnist, III
you doubt this, wait and see! If the Berks,
Northampton, and other great Iron-producing
districts of Pennsylvania, ever catch their
Democratic Representatives voting for Free
Trade Republican Speaker, it will be after 1879.

The Republican journal. [volume] (Belfast, Me.) 1829-current, 1870-11-24

The Camden Herald makes curious dis
tinctions. 1t says
We are aware that the journal has noticed our
railroad meetings, &c, but merely items of news,
without word of commentator for the enter
prise.
Then, referring to the railroad among
other things, it says
We have not the egotsm to suppose that we have
been the instrument to bring these things about,
but the Herald has labored to keep them before the
public, and it has had an influence in the right di-
rectiOn.
This is very singular We have both kept
the enterprise before the public, by noticing
its progress, the efforts made, &C., but the
effect of the Journals notices has been to re-
tard the matter, while the Herald's have
slipped it over all obstacles More diverse
results from the same act We're never be-
tore chronicled-resultst that any acuteness
except that displayed in the Herald will fail
to discover. We will not attempt to discuss
with the Herald the measure of its egctism.
There's enough Of it. If egotism would build
the road the editor OF that paper might take
the contract and complete the whole work in
thirty days.
