Nor need this surprise us when we consider
how completely this Republican party is
domineered over by veterans tagging superflu-
GUS on the political stage. It's leaders are
men who have grown gouty and rheumatic
in the clover of place and power. The ma
jority of its Senators and Representatives
have haunted Congress for years. Sumner
and Wilson, for example, go back in Federal
notoriety more than two-thirds of genera
ton. Banks has been Massachusetts idol
for time whereof the memory of man run
meth not to the contrary. Whether Horace
Greeley really ate the first pie which ever
safe on the Stuyvesant pear tree in the time
of ''Hardkoppig Pete" may perchance be
matter of doubt. 1t is not matter of doubt
that he fought good fight for Harry Clay
at a time when the grown men of to-day
were behaving as improperly in their nurses
arms as Shakespeare says babes SO placed
always do.
So is it with the whole calendar of the Re-
publican saints. Their journalists, like the
great agricuturist we have Just mentioned,
and his friend the trusted Forney, have come
down to us with the brave of Bunker Hill
from "a past generation" Who remembers
time when the voice of Chandler was not
heard in the Senate2 Who can recoil by an
effort of the will from the present hour into
o season of the House of Representatives in
nocent of Bingham or of Kelley2 Were these
venerable men able to agree upon any set of
political maxims, their Individual imbecility
might be overbalanced by their collective
force. This, however, they are unable to
do, and the world is consequently afflicted
with the spectacle of a long hucksters'
wrangle between the old women of political
market which already threatens to tumble to
the earth. New men of mark and force COM
ing forward they have none. Friends and
foes alike recognize the accessions of capa-
city and character which the Senate has made
from the Democratic party in the persons of
MIR. Bayard, Mr.. Casserly, and Mr.. Thur
man. The only latter-day Republicans who
have appeared in that body whose names are
ever mentioned in its debates are Mr.. Conk-
ling, of New York, and Mr.. Carpenter, of
Wisconsin. And of these the Tribune
itself contemptuously tells us that the one is
an inflated turkey -gobbler and the other pin
feather popinjay. The youth and promise
and energy of the country belong by the ire
versible order of nature to the progressive
Democracy. The fogies and the faulty of
the land are barnacled about the place
holding veterans of radcalism. 1t were reason
enough, were all other reasons wanting, to
hope for the approaching overthrow of the
Republican party, that all its great columns
are visibly cracked, calcined, or toppled over
with old age.

Modern POliteness.

When our friend Brown, courteous old
beau, dimes out, he considers it one of the
first rules of good breeding to appear pleased
with whatever is set before him, and to avoid
disturbing the toupee of the host, or causing
the fall of the smallest flake of enamel from
the cheek of the hostess, by any audible criti-
cism upon their menu or their company. But
then he is pronounced by the superior judg-
ment of the fast circles to be an awful snob. He
is far too "slow" to understand the comfort
of abusing the ortolans as they disappear into
his mouth, and the Lafitte as it runs down his
throat This antiquated creature cannot en-
Joy the delight of exhibiting cool contempt
for his entertainer and all his concerns, nor
appreciate the luxury, on quitting house
after dinner, OF carrying with him a comfort
able feeling of repletion, and the stimulating
consciousness of having shown the inmates
than they are rather nuisance than other
wise.
What privation it must have been to our
benighted forefathers to be compelled, by the
usages of their time, to restrain these gene
rous impulses-these natural thanks for hos
pitality In our enlightened days whoever is
| admitted into what a few people look upon
as the fine .feur of society is free from any
such restrictions. In those happy hunting
| grounds he may give free expression to his
sentiments; but he must be careful that not
the slightest polish conceals the
roughness and crudity of his
proceedings, for even here there
are laws, and they are enforced by
heavy penalties. He must not make the fatal
mistake of bringing with him any courtesy or
respect for the feelings of others, or, above
ALL any sense, if he should have such things
about him. He might as we'll bring the
cattle-plague or the smallpox. His ciVility
will be interpreted as humbug; his feelings
will create suspicion; and his conversation,
if even moderately rational, and not carried
on in the slang of the set, will be thought
such bore that he will be cut the next day,
or declared to be as great a snob as old
Brown.
When we lament over the gradual spread
of these habits, it is comfort to hear from
some people that the qualities of the heart
are as hourishing as ever. 1t may be so, but
it is not impossible that they may be endan-
gered by the total abolition of politeaess,
which is an outwork of kindness and friend
ship, and which, when it shows itself in a
''desire to make oneself less, we have the
highest authority for prefering to the oppo-
site sentiment, which takes its rise in self
exaltation. 1t is also admitted that habits
affect the character. A long course of incl
Witty and disregard of others will go far to
produce the qualities of which they are the
outward sign, and we may find that in repu-
dating politeness we have parted with many
Christian virtues to which II is nearly allied.

earthquakes In Great Britain.

Twice year, upon an average, has Bri-
tannia experienced twitching somewhere.
The great majority of these shocks were,
however, confined to Scotland, and of this
majority the largest proportion was felt only
about Comrie, in Perthshire, which is so
quaky spot that it was deemed advisable,
many years ago, to erect instruments for
registering the frequent dislocations to
which the soil theresbouts is subject. South
of the Tweed the eRrths crust is in great
repose; in England proper earthquakes are
few and far between. The last one extern
sively felt was that of October G., 1868, which
occasioned great commotion in mems minds,
but did little hurt otherwise. There was one
later, on the morning of August 2l, 1864, felt
at Lewes, In Sussex it coinclded in point of
time with high tide on the Sussex coast, and
it was smart enough to crack a few walls; but
its area OF damaging power was very limited.
On the 9th of November, 1852, the greater
part of the mountainous district of North
Wales was shaken to an extent that considera-
bly, alarmed the people thereabouts, though
no serious injury to property resulted.
The disturbances OF the 18th of March last
were of somewhat extensive character. 1t
would appear from the reports numerously
communicated to the newspapers that the
area of commotion must have embraced all
that part of England between the Cheyiot
Hills and the line joining the mouths of the
Mersey and Humber. And the shocks were
somewhat more severe than those occurring
within recent times, of which we have given
the dates, for we had reports of considerable
damage having been done to substantial
buildings. The actual displacement of any
particular object or of the earth at any par
ticular place, we may never know, for We be-
ieve that there is nowhere in England an
apparatus for registering this datum Cas-
