The Now Departure NO. ~ OF the
Ohio Democracy.

The new departure of the Ohio democracy,
called the "Allen county platform" is being
responded to very generally by democrats in
other parts of the State. The new idea is to
throw overheard all old party traditions, old
fogy leaders, old crumbling landmarks, all
sorts of old party incubii, and come out with
young, fresh and vigorous democracy, with
new men, new principles, new beacon lights,
for leaders and guides. In referring to this
movement the Dayton Herad-formerly VAL
landigham's organ and supposed to represent
the Vallandigham democracy Of Montgomery
COMMUNICATING to the destiny which, it
alleges, the party in power is driving on re-
publican institutions, and that there is not
moment to be lost in averting the danger be-
fore us, pertinently remarks that ''men of
both parties are, to certain extent, response
BILE for this alarming state of things Political
parties of every sort need publication. The
only wny to accomplish this is for the honest
unselfsh, patriotic men Of all parties to unite on
o common basis and labor for this grand result
The present state Of the political atmosphere
gives cheering promise that the people are
is one of these indications. More Of the same
character will follow, if we do not greatly mis-
take the mind and the temper Of the people,"
The HERALD sees in the great movement Of
the farmers of the West another indication,
and most formidable one, in the same direc-
ton. 'In that movement alone, if inspired
by right influences and prudent counsels,"
continues the organ Of the vallandigham dem
ocracy, separate and distinct from all parti-
san control and dictation, may be hailed
power for good that will be irresistible and
overwhelming" This indicates the course
those who followed the fortunes of the great
apostle Of the first new departure of the Ohio
democracy are inclined to take in the present
emergency, with what results remains to be
seen. 1t looks now as if the opposition were
organizing for the campaign of 1876 on the
old Anything Grant" principle, to be
followed, from present appearances, by SINH
lar want Of success

TOUCHING THE PROGRESSIVE SPIRIT OF Joun-
NA1IsM in this country, the St Louis Democrat
Justly remarks that 1.-THE Congressman of to-
day Is not half as great man in the eyes of
his constituents as his predecessor Of twenty
years ago was and 1t is not because he knows
less than his predecessor knew, but because
his constituents of to-day know SO much more,
through the newspapers, than the constituents
Of twenty years ago." The Democrat might
have added that while Congressman ore be-
coming less and less objects of public esteem
and confidence, from their notorious jobs and
corrupt practices, the respectable newspaper
press is continually rising higher and higher
in the scale Of popular regard and practical
influence. HH0 N

Prepare for the Season OF Pestilence.
When the Dog Star RACES and the air be-
comes heavy and oppressive the dread shadow
Of pestilence hangs over the land. Great
cities, where long Winter has left its legacy
of filth and disease-breeding miasma, look to
their Boards Of Health at this time with par
ticular interest This city, the metropolis of
America, is especially interested in the sani-
tary line. Street cleaning has been for some
years one of those peculiar institutions that
like the phrase luc1s non l1cendo means the
very opposite from what one would be led to
imagine. 1t has been, in fact, an elaborate and
hbored system of keeping the city as dirty
as possible. Immense sums of money have
been expended and numerous self-sacrifcing
citizens have been selected to solve the vexa-
tious problem, whether it is possible to keep
New York clean; but the result has generally
proved the same-unmitigated filth Our
Summers have been, lately, fruitful of disease,
and certainly in great city like New York
the very suspicion of pestilence should be
diate action on this all-important subject Of
health. We cannot speak too often on this
subject. There are rumors, which even nom
alarmists cannot afford to despise, Of pesti-
lence and epidemic in this country. Whether
the terrible destroyer, cholera, is the agent SO
actively at work in the Southwest, or whether
some local disease swells the bills of mortality
there, the Health authorities in this city should
display more zeal in their duty or show some
more tangible results on the score of cleanli-
ness
The Police Department is responsible for
the condition of the streets, and that condi-
ton is lamentable in the extreme. The
plague spots are fast multiplying; an invita-
ton is, as it were, held out for the arch-de-
stroyer to reap on abundant harvest on Man
haitian Island, and yet we are blandly in
formed that the sanitary condition of the city
is excellent. Large districts in this city con-
tain permanent swamps and stagnant pools
which offend the olfactory organs and which
are rarely disturbed by the scavenger. It is
late, but not yet too late, for that great anti
dote to pestilence- precaution. The subject
is too serious for even the authorities to ne
elecI ior Iney are AS uhpie as Inc oenlzenS
Of the tenement house to fall victims to
the destroyer There is no greater crime
against the well-being of the community than
indifference or procrastination on the part of
those to whom that well-being is entrusted,
and we hold, as do the entire public, the Police
and Health authorities to strict accounta-
bility should they neglect to place the city in
proper state of defence against pestilence.

By SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE FROM CUBA
we have an extended, spirited and very in
teresting report of the progress of affairs in the
Antilles island to the latest moment of date by
mail. The fighting, particularly in the Man
zanillo district was Of very fierce aud
stubborn character, quite number Of Span
ish soldiers having been slain in battle, and
many, very many, Cubans having again at
tested the sincerity Of their patriotism by the
sacrifice Of their lives There was still vast
deal Of Captain-G eneralship, Of official So
crecy, Of the prison fortress rfgane and of
political reports Of representative fusion with
Spain in the Madrid Cortes. But notwith-
standing oil this the red spots Of the great
local struggle were repeated almost daily.

THE VENDoE COLUMN, which the Com
Hnunists destroyed during their mad and ruin
Gus rule in Paris, is to be restored, no doubt
10 their sorrow, and, it would seem also, to o
certain extent, at their expense. The effects
Ipf M. Courbet, noted Communist, are TO be
sold by order Of the government and the pro-
leeds are to be devoted to the reconstruction
of the famous pillar. This is really sensi-
!ble idea. If the destruction Of the vendome
Column gave the Communists pleasure it is
but fair that those of them who can now be
got hold of should be made to pay for their
enjoyment. No better use could be made Of
Communist property. A few more such ex-
Amples might have wholesome effect on the
Communists Of the future.

homeward bound, she was perhaps, too
heavily laden to fight her way through those
ice packs; that with the discharge Of the
stock of provisions put out on the ice on the
10Th OF October she was sufficiently ightened
to reach at least q safe anchorage that q
large stock of provisions still remained in the
ship for the subsistence of the fourteen men
left on board, and that though Captain Bud
dington had been occasionally intoxicated he
was perfectly sober and diligently active for
the preservation Of his ships crew on that
memorable 18th of October.
Among other important facts established by
Herron's journal Of his involuntary voyage
down Bafin Bay is the fact that party of
nineteen souls, adrift on an ice foe in that
stormy sea, by two good and faithful Esqui-
maux hunters, well armed and supplied with
ammunition, can all be subsisted through
the three months darkness Of an Arctic Win
ter, and through six months cruise at the
mercy of icebergs, snowstorms, winds and
waves. On December 20 Heron makes this
memorandum: -"To-morrow will be our
choicest day; then the sun returns (meaning
Uuat having Tcacneu Ills IaTLHeSG pOluC bOutu
of the Equator, he will turn again to the north
ward), and in three weeks we will have day
light" Again, on learning, January Z,
from Mr.. Meyer that they had drifted down to
north latitude 7207, Heron writes:-'News
SO good treated myself to an extra pipe Of
tobacco at twelve O. clock last night" They
were longing for the sun-they had not seen
him for months. For brief space, at high
noon in New York, he had given them each
clear day relieving twilight but the inter-
posing bulk Of the globe had cut off even
glimpse Of his glorious face. In view of this
difficulty of prevailing darkness, only now and
then relieved by the aurora borealis, we feel
that we cannot too strongly approve the har-
mony endurance and heroism of Captain
Tyson and his party, or the skill and fidelity
of Joe and Hans, as hunters, in keeping them
all alive. We therefore, heartily commend
the gallant Captain and his party, each and
all, to some special and substantial recognition
of their services by the government.

The LATE ELECTIONS IN STRAsDoURo have
resulted in the triumph of the anti German
candidates. If France were strong enough to
renew the fight Alsace and Lorraine might be
relied on to lend effective help. France, how
ever, is not strong enough for any such effort,
nor is she likely soon to be; and it is not
Unfair to take it for granted that time will
reconcile the people of Strasbourg to their new
masters. Years were needed to make them
french. Years Of good government will again
make them German.

TIE MEXICAN CONGRESS. The session Of
the Mexican Congress was closed, as the
readers Of the HERALD have been already in
formed by telegraph, on the 31st of May.
President Lerdo's speech to the national rep
resentatives on the occasion, with the reply of
the Parliamentary President, reached us in
eaaenso by mail last night The interchange
of opinion and profession Of sentiment was
harmonious, and, on both sides, patriotic and
conservative. The President complimented
the army on it's bravery and loyalty" and
assured the Republic of continued and jealous
effort on his part for the sustainment of the
prosperity of the nation" The legislative
body reciprocated the pledges Of His Excel
lency in words of happy expression. The
Claims Treaty Commission renewal with the
United States was referred to as a measure
which "fosters the hope that right and reason
shall predominant in the world, and that can
non and bayonets shall no longer hold judg-
ment over the differences which arise among
nations" Telegnphs and railroads are to be
encouraged and extended, and the crime of
kidnapping punished. The question Of the
Church is not directly touched.

BRITISH HoNoR 10 THE SHAH.-His Majesty
the Shah of Persia reviewed British feet
comprising oil the vessels Of the Channel

display was exceedingly fine and the naval
muster and inspection were conducted with
great <clat, in the presence of very
many thousands Of people. Many princes,
of Great Britain and from Russia, accompa-
MED the Persian potentate, who must have

Regency.
Again we have it reported that Emperor
William is i'll. This time the report comes to
us In minute and circumstantial form. The
Emperor, it is said, is incapacitated for fur
Their public duty, and arrangements are being
made for the proclamation of Regency under
the Crown Prince, Frederick William. 1t is
possible, of course, that the report has but
little foundation in fact. Still, Emperor Will
liam is ON old man he has seen his seventy
sixth birthday, and it would not be at all won
derful If he were now overtaken by the
infrmities incident to old age A Regency
would not be novelty in Berlin, for Emperor
William himself during the illness of his
brother ruled as Regent of Prussia from 1858
to 1861. In England Regency is associated
with painful memories and with scsnes which
not even the enemies of that country care to
see reproduced In Berlin it is different.
With the Regency Of William began that policy
which has made Germany unit and rendered
Prussia the mistress of Germany. OF the
Grown Prince no fears need be entertained
Self-controlled, resolute and in hearty sympa-
thy with the policy which has made for him
so grand q position, his advent to power
will be followed by no radical change in the
government Of the Empire.

From England we have news Of the death OF Ad-
miral Grimm, Of the Royal Navy. He expired at
Plymouth, at the age Of seventy-flve years. His
exploits In the great war with America and In the
Syrian campaign Of 1910 helped to maintain the
naval prestige OF England. The deceased, whose
life had been Of almost incessant active service
worked his way, step by step, from the lowest
and narrating his experience as prisoner Of

The famous anti-slavery agitator, Lewis
Tappan, has ended his mortal career. He
died at the advanced age Of eighty-fve, at his
Looking at the great work he was largely in
strumental in accomplishing abolition of
slavery-he might well have said on his death
bed, as Simeon of old said, 'Now lettest Thou
Thy servant depart in peace, for mine eyes
have seen Thy salvation" Bowed down with
years, after ON intensely active life, Lewis
Tappan did live to see the salvation he worked
and prayed for and had faith in. Yes, he saw
not only the four millions Of blacks in the
South emancipated from slavery, but raised
also to position Of political equality, or even
of political supremacy in some cases, that he
hardly dreamed would be realized. We can
well imagine the sweet qualification this man
of venerable years must have felt as life began
to close when contemplating the stupendous
revolution that had been effected. Mr.. Tappan
was reformer by nature and education, o
genuine philanthropist and ON earnest worker
in whatever he undertook, and hence he
labored indefatigably for other reforms as
well as for the freedom of the negroes. In
him was fully developed the type of restless
ness, energy and aggressiveness of the New
England character. Such man will always
be heard and make powerful impression
when agitating political or social reforms.
Nearly all the men who commenced and car
ried through successfully the anti-slavery
crusade were from New England, and most
prominent among them was the deceased. He
was leader in the free church movement,
the American Missionary Association, the tenn
perance cause, and in other movements for
the elevation and progress Of the human race.
Knowing well the power Of the press, he be-
came q journalist. for the purpose of promot-
ing his views as well as from natural dis
position to be engaged in busy and active
Life. Though his mind was narrowed some
what by q Puritanical spirit and education
his philanthropy and comprehensive reform
views overshadowed that defect. He was
especially the friend Of the blacks, and will
long be remembered as one of the first to de-
mand their freedom-yes, even when it was
odious to do SO. Hardly any name Will be
more prominent in history than his in connec-
ton with the abolition Of slavery. Consider
ing his great age and the many years he was
engaged in advocating measures for the ameli-
grafton and improvement of his fellow men,
he may justly be called the patriarch of re-
formers
