A Pretty Quarrel as it Stands:

There is no doubt that the excitement 10
England, upon the subject OF the Treaty OF
Washington, was due as much 10 polltlcal
maneuvring as to the realization OF the
fact that the United States had cooliy pre-
sented ssa little bill" amounting to about
So, 600, 600, 900. Mr.. Disraeli and his fol-
lowers we're quite ready to take any step
which promised to embarrass the ministers.
For more than two weeks the London press
had discussed aud denounced the claims
made by the United States under the treaty.
It only needed studiously guarded SEN
tence in the Queens speech, and q le"
sbarn words ir the House of Commons, to
thoroughly arouse the British public. The
newspapers had laid the train; the House OF
Commons applied the match. Mr.. Glad
stone made handsome reply to his assail-
ants. His words go straight to the point
England will not pay the Indirect damages
claimed by the United States. From this
position, neither ministers nor people Will
recede.
And yet we do not fear war between
England and the United States. Admitting
that England will withdraw her representa-
tives, il the Geneva Arbitrators consent TO
consider sthe case" Of the United States as
it stands, there is no. serious danger Oh an
open rupture. This country will charge
England with violating the provisions OF the
Treaty of Washington, and England will
hurl the same accusation at the head OF the
United States. There will be blusterous!
talk on both sides; but no fighting. Meth
er country desires it; neither country can
afford it.
The only danger, indeed, OF war with
England grows out Of the doltish obstinacy
of President Grant, and the reckless par
tis,rsbip OF his advisers. II the, President
believes that big talking, or brush with
England, will strengthen his chances OF re-
and election, it is possible that
se may allow the country to drift into o.
dght. This is the real risk which the nation
runs while it is ruled by a clique OF dema-
gogues who would sacrifice myriad OF
lives to strengthen the Radical party.

Bastard English.

The telegraphic system has it's disadVan.
tages. From every town in the Union, the
busy gatherers Of news forward to the lead
ing journals reports OF the last sensation,
whether o railroad consolidation or the
vagaries of Latter Day Saint. What the
reporters aim at is intelligloilily and brevity.
In order to shorten their telegraphic dis
patches they coin bastard words, which are
horrible In sound, and, il they come into
common use, will destroy the force and
vigor OF the English tongue.
We are accustomed to read in the papers
that two trains ''colided," through the neg
lisence OF two switchmeD, one OF whom
sssuicided," while the other is "jailed.
Nor are our hardened nerves shocked when
we learn that house was ''burglarized," or
that the stock market is "activer" by reason
OF a bull movement. But the press report
ers exhaust even Southern patience when
they inform The NEWS that two robbers
sAighaOayed', james Allimann, and that their
victim was "hospitaRea."
AS long as night editors know that 'high.
"wayed" is equivalent to committed
.'highway robbery upon," and that 'hospi-
"talled" means "sent to the hospital" the
press reporters will continue to use the mon
strous words in which their frugal souls de-
light. And, so long as the hybrids do not
go beyond the precincts OF the newspaper
office in which they are received, no hahn
is done. 1t Is no worse for reporter by
telegraph to inform his journal that two
trains "collided," as standing for 'came
'into collision" than tits for merchant to
telegraph his correspondent that "Jones
"Puiled Browns Nose" meaning, when the
cypher is written out, that "cottou is firm,
''with an upward tendency, and receipts are
s'expected to be light" The injury is done
when the public read the newly-formed
words, and accept and use them in writing
and in talking. II we value the purity of
our tongue-and the corruption OF language
is the sure sign OF the decline Of people
we must lie in wait at the doors OF news
paper offices and countiDg-rooms, allow no
illegitimate expressions to go abroad, pro-
hibit their use by those we control, and, as
far as may be, hide their existence from the
fast youths who delight in slaLg, and from
the thoughtless elders who ought to know
better.
We do not expect to see this reform ac-
complished in day. The work must, we
confess, begin at home. But we intend to
do our part in keeping the press free from
slang phrases and bastard words, and we
doubt not that our Southern contemporaries
will willingly do the same.
During the past tive years there has been
great change for the better in one depart
ment OF American journalism: The dignity

The Democratic Senator'S.

We hope that there is no truth in the re-
port that the Democratic members OF the
State Senate intend to resign their seats
The Senate, in comparison with the House,
is a Conservative body, and its conserva-
tism is strengthened by the action of tho
Democratic minority. Measures OF great
public Importance, in which every vote is oil
moment, will come before the Senate this
session, and we repeat the expression OF
our hope that every Democrat will be found
in his place. Nothing can be gained, and
much may be lost, by resignation at this
time
