The following article from the last Reporter,
seems so well put, that we are disposed to
adopt its sentiments, and commenced it as a
fair and just expression of our view ofparlies:
THE REPUBLIcAN PARTY Tho Re-
publican party has recently experienced
some local reverses, but nevertheless, in
the great heart of thepublic it is the on
ly party before the American people
that is regarded with any degree of re-
spect. The people do not forget its vic
tories and achievements in behalf of free
dom and the union in the past, and the
measures it has maugurated, adding
largely to the wealth and influence Of
the Republic. Individual unfaithfulness
ON the part of members of the party
should not be laid to the charge of the
party itself, unless the party itself un-
dertakes to shield or approve the wrongs
and the wrong doors. We confidently
anticipate that in the Congress soon to
convene, such n line of policy will be in
augurated and energetically carried for
ward as will convince the gainsayers
and the despondent ones that the time
has not arrived for the Great National
Party to give place TO those who to-day
possess no strength at all, save such as
they have gained through the errors
and weakness of individual members of
the Republican organization. We look
Tor earnest, patriotic and wise action on
the part of Congress. The people who
have so long stood by the party look for
this, and they desire no change Espec-
ially do the people depreeate the return
TO power OF that political organization
that did all IN their power to cripple
the nation when struggling with treason

they assign for their failure, or rather suspcn.

rather than improving, they knew ii they per-

C0NGREssMEN's Salaries The opinion

among the first bills Introduced when con
grcss meets will be one ppeaImg the act of
the last congress increasing the salary of
members the people are unanimous in their
demand for the repeal ;ncarly all of the CON
ventions of both political parties held during
| the year express the same sentiment, and the
large number of new members will not dare
to disregard the will OF their constituents. In
these times OF financial slringency The Amer.
lean people are compelled to economiz1 aud
rctrench, and they will spot every member OF

members will restore the lrinking privilege.
TIE TELESCOPE OF THE AGE-rhe WASH
ingtou Telescope, for the building of which
Congress made an appropriation of $4,000
J some years ago, is now being mounted at the
National Observatory in Washington. The
instrument rests on pier of stone and brick
work extending eighteen feet below the sur
face, and the pier is capped by II single block
of sandstone Weighing about two tons. On
this stone rests II heavy iron casting weighing
one aud IL quarter tons, aud this supports the
instrument. Although the weight of the
moving parts is about tour tons. the inn
mense mass Can he moved by slight pres
sure oi the hand. The length Of the hstru-
ment, is thirly-lwo and a half feet, and the
telescope tube is of sheet steel riveled togelh-
cr. The important part of the instrument, the
object glass, is tweniy-six inches in diameter,
and was made in England, at a cost Of $1,000.
The telescope is splcndidly mounted for all
movements, and the size Of tire object glass
will relieve the observer from the effects OF
atmospheric disturbances, which, with smaller
| glnsses are extremely irOublesOme.
