The warm weather is upon US
and of course it brings around the
Presidential junketing season.
Long Branch dispatches inform
us that the great national robber
with eight furniture wagons, fol-
lowed by five carriages, nine or
ten horses, and half dozen bull
pups, had arrived at that arisfor
cratic retreat and taken up quar-
tiers for the season. Such magnif-
cence accounts for the Presidents
signature of the salary grab bill;
but the most scandalous thing
connected with his Retirement. Is
the fact that many of the articles
thus taken tn Long Branch were
not. the Presidents property, but
belonged to the nation, and were
removed from the White House
and its surroundings without due
regard TO the rights of the real
ownert
Our imperial Caesor will there
fore issue his orders during the
heated term from his sea side

''see through a glass darkly', the
occasions were his official man
dates are required. The r of
state rave sat heavy on his brow,
and the transfer from the society
of his troublesome subordinates
to that of the eonviyially dispos-
ed gentlemen who constitute his.
coterie at the Branch must be
exquisitely refreshing. /.

A German paper says the diff
ference between Liberals and
regulars is not a personal one,
but one of principle. The Repub-
lean party, since it has fulfilled
its great mission, has become an
Organization merely of booty and.
corruption; it is low no longer
the party.eof progress and justice,
which itswas formerly, but the
party of privileges and monopo-
lies, ofqtariffs and subsidies, of
injustice. and the enrichment of
individuals at the expense of the
masses. It has become a party
of much government, of inter
meddling and guardianship. !.

that swiAdle, from the Presiden;
down to the lowest Congressman.
Does the "Dug" editor know that
while each Congressman only
stole $4,000, the President of his
choice, and who was endorsed by
the late Ohio Republican Con
vention, stole $2o00J? What Is
the use of him spending his
breath on a $4,000 thief, when
there is. a FIVE times greater one
at the head of the nation? Doee
not Morris know that if it had
not been for the great national
robber Grant, that these Con
gressmen could never have goi
their hands into the Treasury?-
Why does he not denounce this
great robber as well as the lesser
ones? Grant is the author of the
salary steal, and he is now enjoy
ing the benefits of it in a drnn
ken revely at Long Branch.

Mine eyes to mine eyelids cling thicky;
My tongue feels a mouthful and more'
My senses are sluggish and sickly;
To live and to breathe Is bore:
My head weighs ton and quarter,
BY pains and by pangs ever spnt,
Which manifold washings with water
Relieve not bit.
NV longings of thirst are unlawful
And vain to console or control
The aroma of coffee is awful,
Repusive the light Of the roll.

And strive my dull wits to engage,
But cannot endure the internal
Sharp crack OF its page.
What bad luck my soul had bedevilled,
What demon of spleen and of spite,
That rashly went FORTH that revealed,
In riotous living last night?
Had the fumes of the goblet no 0dor
That well might repulse or restrain,
o insidious brandy -and-soda,
Cur Lady of Pain?
Thou art golden of CLEAN as the summer
That smiles DER a tropical sod,
o daughter of Bacehus, the hummer,
foamer, a volatile tod!
But thy froth is serpent that Kisses,
And thy gold as balefire doth shine,
Aud the lovers that rise from thy kisses
Cal't walk straight line.

And frown upon those like best?
Did play the low fawner and Turnkey

aLADsToNE's CHANCE OF RETURN TO POWER
Should the leading conservatives main
tain this attitude Mr.. Gladstone will, prob
ably, be invited to continue in Office during
the present session of Parliament and over the
period of an early dissolution and general
election
CONSERVATIVE PRUDENCE AND POSSIBLE RALLY
FOR PLACE.
1t is more probable, however, that the tories
will reconsider their promises and make an
attempt at forming ministry and to gov
ern, counting and relying on the chance of
getting safely through the session by bringing
in the absolutely necessary bills only. and not
venturing to introduce any measure involving
a difference of principle or raising any issue
thereon.
CITIZEN COMMENT ON THE CRISIS AND PRESS
CANVASS OF THE MINISTERIAL CASE.
It is reported in the clubs that the vote Of
the House of Commons on Mr.. Gladstones
Irish University bill was great surprise to
the Cabinet and the liberal members of the
House of Commons. The latter were DESTROYS
of upholding the Ministry by vote of conf
dence. The conservatives are even now un-
willing to accept the responsibility of disso-
luton of Parliament. The session of the
House of Commons to-day was looked forward
to with great anxiety.
PRESS OPINION OF THE DEFEAT OF THE MINIS
The London journals of this morning COM
mented at great length on the defeat of the
government on the Irish University Education
bill and speculated freely upon the course Mr..
Gladstone would pursue.
The London Times said the Cabinet would
probably resign to-day and Mr.. Disraeli be
called by Her Majesty to form new Ministry,
in which event Parliament will be dissolved
and q general election ordered before July.
The Post said the government had not
determined whether to resign or dissolve the
Parliament and appeal to the country
