THE REPuBLlcAN PRoGRAMMR


| It is understood at Washington
that q conference of the leading men
of the Republican party in both
Houses in Congress will be held
there shortly for the purpose of
consulting about, and if possible
agreeing upon some plan of action
whereby the late defeat may be re-
trieved, and the party be organized
for victory in 1876. 1t is probale
that the President and the members
of the Cabinet viii be present and
participate in this meeting of the
leaders. While it will not be in
the nature of caucus, it is ex-
pected that whatever is agreed upon
will meet the approval of all Repub-
licans, including those who have
been among the dissatisfied in the
late campaign, and who either voted
with the opposition or were rassive.
President Grant has expressed the
opinion that, if they are so disposed,
the Republicans can, during the
three months that remain to them,
originate policy which will restore
confidence and carry the country
at the next general election. An
effort will be made to reach some
understanding as to what Congress
shall do at the approaching session,
but it is believed this cannot be
done successfully short of regular
party caucus of both Houses. 1t is
quite probable, however, that pro-
gramme may be agrred upon by
the conference to be submitted to a
caucus at late day. The Republi-
cans now in Washington, as well as
some prominent men in the party
at distance who have been heard
from, all write in the opinion that
some concert of action is necessary.
MORE troops have been ordered
to New Orleans. The Conservative
Committee probably has itself to
thank for the proceeding. Had its
protest against the keeping of sol.
diers in Louisiana net been made,
the National Government would
have had more assurance than i.
has now of a peaceful disposition
among the White Leagues. 1t is
morally certain that the counting IL
of the Republican, candidates by the
Returning Board would provoke 6
civil war. We don't believe the Re.
turning Board contemplates any in
justice. Dispatches state that nc
certificates will be given to Con
gressional candidates in districts
where there have been Irregular
ties, bat the Government will be
left to order new elections. This i:
the wisest scheHle of action that ha:
yet been suggested.

MASSACHUSETTS, Wood.

A springfield dispatch, giving ao-
count Of the bursting Of reservoirs ~
Massachusetts, Sunday, says the dls-
coyery OF the leak was made by Dea-
con llrrry Meacham, an old gentle
man who has been one of the law
makers of the state, but whose name
will be remembered from this day, not
~ that of u Scion, but rs the Collins
Graves Of Blush Hollow, At four sun
day afternoon, Meacham, who lives
about one quarter Of mile from the
upper dam, visited II feeling anxious
lest the long continued aud heavy
rains had weakened is walls,
The dam appeared 10 him at that
time all right; but noticing that the
water was rising very rapidly, he be-
thought him that possibly the dam Of
Little Goose pond on II small brook
employing into this reservoir had given
way, and he went up there to inveslI
gate. Coming back after finding that
all right, and again surveying the dam
he was about to turn away satisfied
when he was Mortified TO see n heavy
land slide ON the lower slope of the
dam. Knowing at once what tina
meant he got on his horse, mounted
him In haste, and dashed down Il
Blush Hollow, carrying the alarm o
coming waters.

Young Man. Don't Blush.

| noticed u letter In your excellent
paper the other day, signed "Y. Nj. &.
A. in which the writer, who Is evil
dently young gentleman, protests
against the indecency of promiscuous
bathing at our watering places, and the
improperly of ladies' bathing dresses,
| cannot help thinking that this young
man is very young indeed. He evil
IDENTIFY has the silly prudery which Is
not out of place In a very young girl,
but which Is very ridiculous In young
man who intends to become at some
day n husband and father.
AS an old lady feel the right to
speak on the subject Of ladies bathing
in public. My own daughters have
always done II with my warmest APP
probation, and ! should never consent
TO have them enter the surf unless in
company with men who could look
after them and keep them out Of dan
ger. do not consider that there is
anything indicate about the bathing
dresses worn'by women. They cover
the form completely, and the fact that
they permit the outlines of the body to
be- seen after the dresses become wet is
Il matter of no consequence.
The fact that women actually have
bodies is one which it is silly for us to
pretend to ignore, especially in this age,
when art has made us familiar with
the human form. There is nothing
immoral in our bodies, and the men
and women who us painters and sculp-
tors are constantly made familiar with
the undraped form do not have their
morals contaminated thereby. So far
from objecting to the present style of
bathing dress because it reveals too
much, | think it would be greatly i'm
proved if it We're made with short
sleeves and short legs, SO that the
wearer might secure more freedom of
limb. If Y. NJ. G. A. does not like it
he can easily stay away from the sea
shore. And will say in conclusion,
that he is to be pitied who, standing
on the beach, in fnll view of the majes-
tic ocean, can see nothing except the
wet bathing dress Of some lady on
which he has turned his opera glass
