The voice of the Press to those

great principles calculated to pro-

would be comparatively unknown
outside the magic circles of their
voices. Therefore, all thinkers
should pen their silent thoughts

absolutism move forward at their pres

EngIand's GIory Departing.

Henry WateFsOn, editor Ofthe Courier

closes his last letter as follows:
81 admit that England Is at this mo-
ment rich and strong. admit that he-
aristocracy were never more powerful.
But, making these admissions, l believe
there runs beneath the fabric of Eng
land stealthy, unseen current which is
FOtting away the foundations of every

land has gone. The suffrage has been
enlarged. After a little the House of
Lords will tumble. Then the gradual
rise of the lower orders. Then Il disas-

~ and the revolution. In 1858 Lord
Macaulay wrote a letter to his friend
William {. Rives, of Virginia, in which
he sketched with accuracy all that sub
sequently happened in America. a
broad grin spread itself across the Union
from Maine to Texas. Three years later
the historians predictions came true. l
do not claim so short a period of veriti-
cation of mine. l merely say that It is
clear to me that the glory of England is
departing, that the seeds of her ruin are

Tic New Party Movement.

The formation of new party seems
TO be the next thing on the political
calendar. Hon. w. 5. Groesbeck, Of
Ohio, favors the movement. He says;
81 hope the time is near when present
Democrats and former Democrats and
all dissatisfied Republicans shall be cor
daily united under single organlza-
ton. / don't think there is anything

shattered by many defeats, lt surren-
dered finally at the last Presidential elec-
ton; 10 cannot recall that surrender or
the confessions then made, and 1t has no
longer strength enough Tor victory. In
this extremity it will be wise to lay aside
the old organization and enter into a
new one. The new organization should
accept the results of the war as was
done at Baltimore, and It should accept
them IN good faith, and so as to
command the respect of the people
The new organization should be some
thing different from recast Of the old
one. There should be no eXclusivenes'
about It,
a NOR SHOULD IT BE MERELY DEMOCRATIC
IL should be made up of present Dem
ocrats, of former Democrats, and OF al
Republicans who are offended by the
policy and tendencies OF the present Ad

should be the joint work of Democrats
and Republicans, and both should b'
