A Puzzling Problem.

The Democratic managers are In
uuandary. They want to know how to
break up the Republican party. They
hammered it with the hardsheli Demo-
cratic beetle, but finding it too tough
to break, they intrigued with the Gin
einnati convention to furnish Repub-
fican wedge to split the party.
The Convention furnished the wedge
but of material entirely different
from what the Democrats expected.
The point is of mixed metal which INCL,
doubles up and crumblcs as it strikes
the solid body of Republicanism. 1t
does not cleave the party as was ex-
pected, while the head of the wedge is
protracted pig iron which breakes the
Democratic beetle at every blow.
The harder they hammer the wores
it is for the party. One fragment
threatens to fly one way and another
the other while the Republicans remain
firm. IF they want to keep that old party
maui in shape, they will have to stop
trying to hammer Greeley through,
or put some double-t thick Pennsylvania
Bessemer steel rings on the beetle

SCHURz' SOLACE.
Disguised With Politicians, He
Turns To the Piano-H1s Hearers
Weep.

New York May 9.-Samuel Bowles
has written FIVE column review of the
Cincinnati Convention. He closes ::
s.My review and record of this notable
convention are not complete without
a reference to its distinguished leader
and President, the real master spirit
of the movement whose first national
convention carried so severe a blow
and sharp a wound to him personally.
The conduct Of Gov. Brown, and its
resultant nomination of Mr. Greeley,
were indeed sad surprise and serious
blow to Carl Schurz. Pledging in
faItering voice his support of the con-
vention, he left it, weary with labor
and sad in spirit, for the house of his
friend, Judge Stallo. Entering there
a circle Of equally disappointed
friends, he said Il am overwhel-
med and discouraged There were no
words of consolation or cheer to offer
him, and sad silence reigned for a
few moments. Then he turned to the
piano, and with his master hand poured
out his feelings through one of Auber's
most touching compositions. 1t seem
ed as if the composers thought had
never been so fifty rendered before, and
tears filled the eyes Of the whole com
pany.

Independent order-.of CTS.

frbe eighteenth annual session of the
Right Worthy Grand Lodge OF GOOD
Templars will commence IN Madison next
week.
The order originated in Central New
York in 1852. The first lodge in Wis
consin was organized at Sheboygan Falls,
June, 1854, and is still in a hourishing
condition.
The order is simply q Temperance So
ciety. 1t has no religious or political test
of membership. Its doors are open to
both sexes, to all ages above fourteen, to
members of all sects AID parties, as wei
as to those who belongto no sect or party
All who are willing to take pledge OF TO-
tai abstinence from the use of intoxlca-
ting drinks and to labor to promote the
cause of temperance, are cordially welcom-
ed to its lodges,
Tt COMPRISES among its members many
persons of prominence and official posi-
ton. The Vice President of the United
States is understood to be member OF
the Order. Members of Congress, Gov
ernors of States, more or less members OF
nearly every State Legislature in the
Union, a large number of clergymen OF al
most all denominations, members Of the
legal and medical profession, editors, mer
chants mechanics, men and women OF all
classes and conditions are found connected
with the various subordinate lodges
The growth of the Order in Great Brit
ain has been most remarkable, especially
so in Scotland. 1t is but little more
than two years since the order was first
introduced there, and the lodges of Scot
land now contain membership of about
one hundred thousand.
Among the speakers on the occasion
will be persons from England, Scotland,
Ireland, Canada, and from most of the
States OF the Union.-St0te Journal.

RIPON.
DEAF GnRnNIcIE.

DEAR CHRONICLE:
After long aud somewhat severe win
Ter, spring has brought gsadness to our
hearts. After the inactivity of the wlnttr
Ripon begins TO show signs of substantial
Improvement. Some new buildings are
being erected, and many of those which
have been erected before are being beauti-
fed; many Of our citizens are having their
surroundings improved very much.
The new American House which is be-
ing erected, will, whe' completed, be one
of the finest hotels in this part of the
State. Mr.. Liant Wood, the proprietor,
seems to be determined to spare no pains
in making it worthy of patronage
The new Temperance Law has had a
good effect upon our place there are now
but few saloons and consequently there is
less drunkenness than heretofore. Some
of those who were engaged in the liquor
business are now engaged in more honora-
BILE employment.
Politics receive some attention of course,
just now. The nomiree of the Cincinnati
convention does not suit our citizens very
well, and the probability is that General
Grant will receive a good vote.
Business in general is quite b isk.
Having now first class railroad advanta-
ges our city has become place of some
note. Trains seem to be running in al
most every direction, and at almost all
hours. The value of these roads car
scarcely be overestimated. Their effect is
felt upon every branch of industry. Rail
roads are in these modern times a neces-
sity and any place which does not offer
inducements and make efforts to secure
them, will itself suffer the result Of such
neglect Ripon has acted wisely in this
matter and she is now being amply repaid.
The college, of which | have spoken
before, is power, not only in Ripon, but
in this part Of the State. Beginning, as
it did, in poverty, it has grown up with
the place. Though the instructors have
labored under difficulties which seemed
insurmountable, they have achieved a
triumph of which they may well be proud.
The college now stands a monument of
their industry. In connection with the
college there arc three literary societies,
in which the students have fine oppor-
tunity for voluntary improvement in wri-
ting and speaking. Each of these socie-
ties has well furnished hall in which
they meet on Monday evenings. Their
exercises are generally quite interesting
and profitable. There is naturally a sort
of rivalry among these societies, and that
stimulates each to greater efforts. Be
sides these literary societies there is a
musical society, at which the students
have an opportunity to improve their mu-
steal taste.
In addition to what we already have in
this direction, Prof Perkins, of Chicago,
intends to establish a Musical Academy
here during the coming summer. He
agreed to 90 so, provided that he should
receive sufficient encouragement. The
people have taken hold of the ma tier and
have raised subscrip tions sufficient to war
rant the establishment of the Academy.
This will be valuable addition to our
already numerous privileges.
