HORACE Is NOT A DEMOCRAT AND NEVER WILL BE.
From the New York Tribune.l
Mr.. Greeley is not likely to support any one
on a Democratic platform" for the excellent
reason that he is not Gn party sense) Demo-
crat-never was and is not likely to be.
And now, while we do not, never did, and
probably never shall, belong to the Democratic
party we do greatly desire that said party should
take sounder and more wholesome views Of cer-
tain great public questions than it has recently
done. Here, for instance, is the question of
Protection to Home Industry, on which we are
in full accord with the fathers and founders of
emocracy-Jefferson, Madison George Clin-
ton, Simon Snyder, Daniel d. Tompkins &c.
&c. The Democratic party has somehow drifted
away from its old moorings. and holds doctrines
on this subject nearly identical with those of
most Federalists in our boyhood-the importing,
shipping, banking nabobs Of Boston and New
York in 1Sl6-24
CRITICISM OF THE TRIBUNEs COURSE.
From the n. Y. Times.l
Nothing can be more proper than to criticise
Gen. Grants public policy in an adverse spirit,
whenever there is good occasion for tt--in such
criticism we have never been backward. But to
endeavor to break him down for the purpose of
gratifying personal hostility, or to resent grudg
es founded on the distribution Of otficea, is a
course unworthy any Journal which represents
the Republican Party. II is to be hoped that
our contemporary Will De induced TO reconsider
its present tactics and confne itself to criticisms
which are based upon considerations Of public
good. We do not believe that any paper can
succeed in throwing the Presidential election
into the hands of the Democrats it certain
ly is not worth while for the Tribune to try that
experiment.
OUR RELATIONS WITH SPAIN
From the N Y. Times.l
Ofcourse, there will be many ready to magni-
fly the gravity Of the situation, and assume that
immediate war ia intended. The Administration,
however, evidently purposes to maintain the
dignity Of the nation. though we presume that
many of the unfavorable actions OF Spain will in
time be properly explained or rectifed There
is no danger Of war yet, despite the excitement
naturally manifested at Washington but it will be
gratifying to the people to know that their Gov
ernment is ready to assert its rights should any
foreign Power asaail them.

An amusing instance of unreasonable parti-
sanship we find in the Syracuse Standard, an
ardent anti-Grant paper. Referring to the re-
cent wild speculation in Erie, it quotes from an
absurd datribe in the New York World, which
accuses General Grant of being in conspiracy
to send up the stock, and of having himself
made an enormous profit by the rise. The
Standard hesitates to accept the Worlds sug
gestion, which the latter journal does not at
tempt to support by facts, but it gravely says
that ''the fact that cause for the suspicion of
even an opposition journal has been given, is a
circumstance sufficiently ugly to provoke in
quiry and demand explanation"
That is to say, the president is TO be blamed,
not because he had anything to do with the spec
ulation in Erie, which the Standard does not be-
leve, but because the World, in its partisan
malice, sees ct to accuse him of it. This re-
miods us of little story. A number OF years
ago, in Virginia, caseIwas on trial before a
country justice. The opposing counsel were, on
the one side, gentleman who was both lawyer
and planter, rich and pompous, the autocrat of
the neghDorhood, and on the other a young
man without fortune or connections, but keen
aud capable. The former was soon conscious
that his antagonist was more than match for
him in argument, and was not in the least over
awed by his assumption Of superiority. At last
the choleric old gentleman lost bis temper, as he
felt be was losing his case, and swore roundly
at his opponent, who appealed to the magistrate
for protection against this outrage. To him the
village Minos soemnly said, Young man, if
you will make Squire Mason swear, must fine

FRIDAY, MARCH 30. 1879.

We cannot justly hold General Myer of the
signal office responsible for the exasperating de-
lay Of vernal warmth, the SHOWS, the leeden
skies, the harsh rough winds and the bitter
frosts, which his duty has compelled him to an
nounce, which have made the name of spring a
mockery, and forced us to blush for our coun-
try, in which such season as this is possible.
Bnt, us the bearer of evil tidings inevitably,
even if undeservedly, shares the odium of his
message, we apprehend that the chief signal
officer, if he ever had any popularity, has been
in great danger of losing it. prophecy unto
us smooth things" is the demand now, as in the
time OF the Hebrew prophets, and he who per-
sistently announces the disappointment of our
hopes and longings, may not be dIsbelieved, but
is pretty sure to be disliked, as Cassandra was.
Yesterday, however, model for day in early
spring, will do something for Mr.. Myers repu-
tation, and, if he can safely promise us week
of such weather continuously, he may congratu-
late himself on very narrow escape. Two
weeks more of such weather as this month has
brought us thus far, would make any man un-
popular whose misfortune it was to be associ-
ated with it in the public mind

A comic effect is often produced in passage

phrase which has become slang. Thus in the
opening of one of Dean Milman's theological
works it is written: "Fhe great drama of the
Hebrew dispensaton has been played out"
