across whose wastes the unsteady feet have
drifted, intent only on forgiveness and
restoration. Nay, in our own city of Pitts
burg, how many utterly wretched beings Of
this class are there, whose hearts make
perpetual moan, but for whom no dear light
shines in the window to beacon and beckon
them from the darkness 20 the mercy and
love of home. How many homeless
children, and how many childless homes,
each with great loneliness and dreary
hunger, because of the comfortings that
should be and are not. o women, out of
whose sweet eyes the innocent purity has
not flown, can nothing be dene for the re-

WE fnd the following paragraph in the
witty column Of great number of Re-
publican journals. 1t appears to be going
the rounds of the press:
Salisbury positively declines nomination at
the hands of the Temperance party in Della
ware, having his time otherwise taken up.
We enter our earnest protest against the
spirit of jeeripg mockery which breathes
throughout the above. 1t is not wit; it is
cruelty. No man is himself so sure of
his own foothold as to be beyond the pos
sbility of tripping; aud if he were, that
fact would only increase the dastardliness
of tauntipg him who has stumbled. We
have no doubt that in his saner and better
moods the ex-senator loathes his degrada-
ton far more bitterly than any one else
can hate it for him. 1t is conceded by
Republican Senators who served with him
for many years that the character of Mr..
Sausbury for personal honesty and in
tegrity is altogether beyond suspicion.
Than ourself no one can differ moro
widely from him in the hature of his po-
litical views; but political differences do
not warrant indulgence in gratuitous cru
city. The very finest spirits Of our race
are quite as often the victims of alcoholism
as are its bassst minds. Every body can
recall long list of names of the most gift
ed of our species-painters poets, musi-
clans, orators, statesmen-who began by
soothing opiates to calm the excited nerves
or stimulate the exhausted brain, and end
ed by becoming, morally and physically,
ghastly wrecks of manhood. Surely the
punishment which is attached to habitual
indulgence in alcohol stimulants is of itself
sufficiently terrific. When the point has
been reached at which the irritated sense,
like an avenging fury, goads its victim on
with a perpetual restlessness OF craving,
compelling a reiteration of the guilt
long after it has ceased to charm,
it appears to us that no one
but a very coward can possibly seek
to add extraneous torture to the inward
torment of the victim. And therefore we
reiterate our protest against this species of
cruelty mis-called wit. If those persons
addicted to this stilleto practice would take
the trouble to examine themselves honest
ly and closely touching the character and
the number of their own infrmities, we are
vastly of the opinion that the poignard
would right suddenly fall from their hands.

CONNECTICUT is the next State to vote
this spring, the election occurring on the
third Of April. 1t is the most waverlng
of all the New England States, and is
liable to frequent mutations. In 1868 it
gave English, Democrat for Governor,
1894 majority. This was at the spring
election. Ia the following fall General
Grant, for President, carried the State by
1886 majority. In 1869 Jewell had All
majority. In 1870 the tables were again
reversed, and English, Democrat, was
elected by s4a majority. 1t will thus be
seen that The State is very close, and that
a few hundred votes have generally de-
cided the result. In the Forty-first Con-
gress the delegation of Connecticut con-
sisted of three Republicans and one Demo-
