4 Sensible View Of the Political Situa.
ton,
From the Boston Traveller.

from the Boston traveller.
That there are Republican chiefs
ready to break with the Administration
is sufficiently apparent, but they mean
to adhere to the Republican Parry as
long as there shall be any hope of such
adherence proving profitable. 1t is
possible that some of them may g boil"
after the nomination ofPresident Grant
for they hate him as bitterly as ever
he was hated by those Southern rebels
whom they would join. But their ac-
ton would net have any effect on the ra-
suit of the Presidential election, for
they would not carry any Republican
voters with them. There is not a State
that is likely to vote for President
Grants reelection that would be lost
because OF the desertion to Democracy
of any present Republican of eminence.
Wouid Massachusetts, desert to Demo-
cracy under any circumstances? Ger
tainly not. Would Illinois follow Mr.
Trumbull over into the enemy's camp
because that Little Bilious gentle
man wanted something from President
Grant and did't get it? Certainly not.
Mr.. Fenton might take New York back
to the Democrats, restoring it to Tam
many Tweed and his friends but then,
no Republican ever has counted upon
the vote of New York being obtained
for the reelection of President Grant.
No-if the illustrious cyclists, whose
names are constantly brought forward
as types of disahection, are to become
deserters, they will desert alone: and
in that case they viii get n very grim
welcome from the Democracy, who
have leaders enough OF their own
leaders who want none to divide places
with them, but who desire an accession
of votrrs, The great body OF the Re
publican party are bent, not upon the
exaltauon of any man, but upon the
keeping down of the Democracy, whose
restoration to power would be a source
of danger to the country; aud as the
reelection. of President Grant would
best effect their purpose they go for
his nomination in June-arl they VIII
re-eleet him in November

Gladly now we gather round 1t,
For the t0ilng day Is done.
And the gray and solemn twilight
Follows down the golden sun.
Shadows lengthen on the pavement,
Stalk like giants through the gloom,
Wander past the HUSKY pavement,
Creep around the firelit room.
Draw the curtain, close the shutters,
Place the slippers by the FIRE;
Though the rude winds loudly mutter,
What care We for wind-sprite's ire?
What care we for outward seeming?
Tickle fortunes frown or smile?
If around us love Is beaming-
Love can human ills bepuile
Meath the cottage roof an palace,
From the peasant TO the king,
All are quaffing from life's chalice
Bubbles thdL Ccchantment bring.
Crates are glowing, music flowing
From the lips we love the best;
Oh, the Joy, the bliss of knowing
There are hearts wherein TO rest ,
Hearts that tLrob with eager gladness-
Hearts that echo to our own
While grim care and haunting sadness
Mingle ne'er in look nor tone.
Care may tread the halls of daylight,
Sadness haunt the midnight hour,
But the weird and witching twilight
Brings the glowing hearthstone's dover.
Altar of our hottest feelings
Childhood's well-remembered shrine
Spirit-yearnings--s oul-reveainRs-
Wreaths Immortal round thee twine !

One Baby Killed by Another.
From the Troy n. ~ Times.

A tragedy occurred in the family of
II. 2. Clark, a compositor, on Sunday
afternoon, at his dwelling ON -Four
teenth street. Mrs. Clark was busily
engaged in attending to her domestic
affairs, and had called in Mary Russell.
a little girl, TO take care ot her little
boy, a baby nine months old \ three
year-old son OF IL. Clark was playing
with hls brother and the little girl, and
was amusing himself by throwing small
blocks and other missiles from the cor
ner of the room IN which they were
PLAYING to the other While he was
thus engaged he grasped a small piece
of slate. and without beng precise in
his aim hurled it in playful glee. 1t
struck the baby, which the little girl
had in her arms, ON the right side of
the head, and inflicted deep cash.
At first it was not apprehended that
there was anything dangerous in the
wound but pr. Hutchinson, who was
Immediately thereafter called, said that
the skull had been fractured, ana that
the child could not live After passing
the night in an unconscious state, the
little sufferer expired.

The appearance of the official call g.

to it naturally attracts attention to
position and course OF conduct viii

time. Mr.. Greeley, as member of N

unless he wanted to give notice that he.
would not be bound by the decision 81.
the convention. That, we take il. ID.
the meaning of Mr.. Greeley's course
As man, he has full right to take if
but we do not see what right he has toI
stltle the voice of Republican, New
York, and TO hold on to a place forl
whlch.he is already proclaiming his uni
fitness.
From the Buffalo Commercial.
We do not dispute Mr.. Greeley's IN
questionable right to oppose Gen.
Grant denomination, if he sees fit toI
do so. We do deny his right to plant
himself so squarely in opposition to the
party's wishes, and to claim at the same
time the privileges Of good and faithful
membership. Mr.. Greeley, of course
has but Que object in his refusal to act
with the National committee. He
wants to hold himself in a place where
he can refuse tosupporrthe Republican
candidate, i'll case the President should
be renomlnated After this Mr.. Greeley
certainly cannot expect that the Tri.
bune will be recognized as having any
authority to speak for the Republican
party.
From the Daily Pilot, Jackson, Miss.
Senator Fenton, of New York, and
Mr. Greeley, of the Tribune, are oppos.
GU W N'NII. NiLtlIllo iClOlu AllfAllDii, ana,
of course, his reelection But their
efforts will not avail much. Strong
as Mr.. Greeley is, and as influential as
his paper, both together will count
nothing when placed against the general
wish Of the Republican party of the
country. Judge S. p. Chase wanted to
be President, and because he was not
taken up by the Republican party he
went back on his political associates of
20 years standing, and now affiliates
with Democrats. Andy Johnson want.
ed to be renominated, and because the
Republican party concluded not to take
him up he soured on the I.epublican
party and fought it through more than
half of the Presidential term, but was
defeated, and will remain in obsecurity
the remainder of his life. Others Of
less note have attempted the same sort
of policy and have failed. aud so will
Greeley. We wonder when that class
of men will learn political wisdom
from the failures of others.

and its tributaries, and on the west by a
north and south line drawn nine miles
west of the Mississippi river, embracing
an area OF seventy five square miles Is
this interest then not of sufficient inn
pUrtance TO arrest the attention of cun-
gress t. at least a casual observation Of
the question of the abolition of the duty
on lead ?
Is it reasonable to suppose, however,
that the lead mines of the United States
are in state Of exhaustion ? The mines
OF Spain are older bv ii thousand years
at least than the Christian era, and the
mines Of England are at least twenty
centuries old and both are yet worked to
advantage
We throw out these suggestions for
the reason that the great northwest,
southwest and west are Interested in
this question and because in short
time the whole nation may be interested
IN the same question.
We repeat, with emphasis, what we
have heretofore said that it il impossible
that system OF practical mining which
experience has found to require the en-
plOyment-Ul Il large amount Of capital,
can be introduced into this country so
longs s the question as to the removal of
the duty from lead is being agitatcd in
congress, and the entire question of our
mines left IN IA state OF uncertainty
We maintain that it Is the duty of this
government to protect and foster our
mining interests AS does every other
90 eminent.
