1T is because do tell the truth. As
the old diplomat wrote to his son.
Come hither, my child, and see by wha,
fools the world is governed You come
and can not believe me nor your own
eyes. Time was in the dim traditionary
past when patriotism, hard study and
intellect went to make the statesmen Of
the young Republic. Now leaders are
made without these, through the easy
process of the caucus and demoraliEed
ballot-box. The officials here co moi
represent the virtue, intelligence and
patriotism Of the few, but the vicious
ignorance of the many. And so we
have imhecility, corruption, Ignorance

In the debate on the bin, in the u S.
Senate, to prevent the free and intelli.
gent voters Of the United States from
exercising the tight of Suffrage, JoHN
SHERMAN, Senator from Ohio, said:
ssThey (the minority must see that it
is the purpose Of the majority to pass
this bill, and without debate, so fur as
they are concerned Z. 49,
Senator BAYARD. of Delaware, said:
"b would like to hear one Senator get
up here and justify this.bill."
Bat no, not one word did the Radical
majority in the United States Senate ut
ter in defense Of this outrage against the
rights Of American citizens. They had
previously decided in caucus to pass tue
bill without debate on their part But
thanks to a fearless minority, its ontra-
geous provisions were thoroughly ex-
posed.
Now that ithas become law, for base
political purposes, the people will heed
it just SO long as it does not interfere
with their free exercise of the elective
franchise; when it does, they will pro-
tect themselves IN manner that will not
soon be forgotten by the Despotism at

The French and GERMAN Losses.

A German writer estimates the French
losses in the war at 500, 900 hors du COM
bat by death or wounds. He estimates
the German loss at 100000 men. The
Germans occupy 1,500 German square
miles of French territory, containing
about 100000 of inhabitants This is
sixth of the land and of the people,
and Paris is excluded. The Germans
have been obliged to equip the French
railroads very largely with their own
rolling stock. But the railroads cannot
do the business, and long caravans of
wagons are moving in the highways In
Nancy it is no uncommon thing to see
caravans of 100 to $50 fwo-horse peas
ant wagons arriving, taking oats, &c,
direct from Dresden and Leipsic to the
troops before Paris. Such a journey
occupies, from Dresden to Nancy, about
four weeks and half, and from Nancy
10 Versailles, about fourteen days, SO
that about two months are taken up 10
the transportation. In many parts of
Germany not a peasant wagon is left,
and ordinary merchandise business on
the railroads has ceased. ~

A Man Rolled to Death In the Tuh

Thomas j. Barry, a Government Col
lector, came to a most horrible death
yesterday at Fleischauer's Distillery,
near Sedamsyiiles The man was seen
during the afternoon sitting in window
near the tub in which the worm is coil
ed, and which is filled almost constantly
with hot water. Being needed and moi
to be found, search was made for him
about the building, and messengers
were sent to Sedamsville. :.
A hat was finally discovered. floating
in the tub, and the body was found soon
after, 1t was thought to have been in
the vessel at least two hours, and its con
dition after being exposed to the action
of water heated nearly to the boiling
point for this length of time can easily
be imagined. it is a relief to think thai

Life In washington city.

DoNN PIATr in letter to the Com
mereiat, February 18th, says:
mThe rich grow richer and the poor
get poorer says David A. Wells. with
his terrible array Of figures. One has
in Washington forcible illustrations of
both facts. The streets are filled with
bcggars, while the social salons are
crowded with people, in the most gor-
gcous apparel. There never has been a
season in Washington in which there
was such display Of rich dressing. The
women seemed to view with each other
in a feverish sort of ambition to put
fortunes on their hacks. The intellectu-
al life Of such gatherings consists in
running estimates of the value of the
toilets The llcee, diamonds, silks and
satins are all duly considered and ac-
counted for. 1t is small wonder that
people are driven to that complicated
use of the legs called dancing, when
they have so little else to fall back upon,
even in the way of occupation. Where
art, science, literature, and even politics
are unknown, what can poor creature
do hut whlrl around like a mad dervish
to the Intoxicating strains of the toot
horns and stringed instruments.

The DOminicans Bitterly Opp0s
ed 10 Annexation.
IISan Domingo Correspondence OF the Philadel-
phia Age

The feeling among the population
against annexation is more bitter than
ever, but no one dares to speak out
openly, for fear of punishment or i'm.
prisonment A complete reign of ter
ror has been inaugurated by Baez. Uni
ted States vessels of war, in conjunction
with his troops, have overawed the free
will of the people, therefore Baez does
as he rleases. But, mark well, if an
nexation docs take place, the United
States troops will be obliged to EXTERN
mate the present race of Dominicans,
SO sure is it that bloody revolution
will follow. 1t IS strange that Presi-
dent Grant has allowed himselfto he
so deceived. Not one tenth part of the
people favor annexation, and nearly all
who do are in this citYAalone.
