"The health of King Lunalilo is much better.

the Republicans al stayed ut home. But as
80 the Republican," worked with energy to Sc
cure the second or November series, and were
generally beaten, some notice must be taken OF
the reasons which produced this result. Admin
istration organs stoutly maintained that the only
reason was as given above, but it covers too much.
A year ago IL was claimed that with the election
of Greeley financial ruin and panic would result,
bat with Grant returned prosperity would be-
come unexampled but a few months have elapsed
since the Inauguration, and in the face of large
crops and manufacturing prosperity q terrible
financial disaster has overtaken the country, and
hardship and want stare the nation in the face.
In the October and November elections voters
remembered the promise, and fultillment; they
also recalled s Civil Service Reform Z" promises,
and subsequent contepptuous disregard and so
the people voted want of confidence" 1t is
also noticeable that the Democrats were not the
gamers, but the balance Of power was with diff
lerent ideas and names In the various States. In
New York, the Democratic State ticket was
elected while Reform candidates carried the
day in most Of the cities. In point of fact, all
parties selected good men for Office as q rule. 1t
is TO be regretted that the proposed amendment
to the State Constitution, abrogating the elective
and restoring the appointiye judiciary system,
was defeated. Singularly enough it was made a
party question, the Democrat carrying the State
on the question. The argument used was popu-
lar but foolish and untrue it was, that the right
to elect should be ~jealously guarded, or it would
be forever lost. This country is cursed with too
many elections already.

AZ JEUsUAL BREACH OF PROMISE CASE.
The old adage, to ''be off with the old
love before you are on with the new, is
pretty we'll exemplifed in q breach of
promise case recently decided; in Liver
pool, England. The Chicago Tribune
condenses the facts as follows:
The plaintiff was Agnes Nuttall, the
daughter Of a shipowner, and the defend
ant George II. Wiiles, a military officer,
and gentleman of considerable means
and respectability. who had been divor-
ced his wife having left him for the So
ciey Of more favored lover. The en-
en9ement was made IN the latter part of
May last, and the wedding day fixed for
the 1lth OF October. Everything pro
Cressed satisfactorily until the 81 of Oct
o1er, when Miss Nuttall received let
te- from her attianced. stating that he
had met his wife after Il separation Of
two years and half. and, finding that
she still loved him. AM that people had
he'd about her. he had married her again.
Miss SUttall thereupon brought suit for
breach of promise. and. after 2 long ana
tedloUs trial, tie jury awarded her Sl5.-
u'O damages. As the defendant had act
ei hono:ably in such instance. and could
not resist marrying his wife the second
time. when he found he had been dtceiv-
Ell, the penalty seems a severe one. The
5rry. however, evidently had some com
1-iiseration for the girl who had missed
an income Of $4,000 pr amman.

Noble Doctrine.

Max Adeler thus expresses his opinion
ON the subject Of intemperancc.
Gull from the columns OF paper
called the CRUSADER the following re-
marks:
First cigar. then tobacco, then rum.
then lies, then theft. then murder. then
arrest, conviction, prison, the gallows.
Down with secret spc.e.ies, firearms and
drugs. Down with tobacco and alcohol.
Down with titles and infanticide. Down
with chignons. padding and false
ideas. Dowr with all kinds OF fraud.
and up with all kinds OF truth will be
the plan Of the Man Of the Future.
Mustard plaster are henceiorth abol-
ished in the new light OF Truth"
This is my doctrine. l indorso every
word OF IL, but IL seems that Journal
doesn't 60 far enough.
Not only will mustard plasters be abol-
ished by the clear light OF Truth. but so
will mud pies, water melons and wigs.
And how about martingales and under
shirts? Can they resist the clear light
Of Truth? Can the insiduous sour ball
and the pcrnieious boot-j jack withstand

These things must 60 down, and with
them all the other instruments
of evil with which society is cursed.
Nor more surely do cigars lead to the
gallows than albata teapots TO pauper-

own how is IL possible that deceit should
be torn from the human bosomp Down

A great dealof unfayorsbIe comment is being

rick TO carry his paid advocacy and attorney
ship Of the memorialists into the House. Had a
Representative expressed such a purpose on
behalf Of the District government, what howl
We should have had from Dana and his gang
about the purchase of members Of Congress by
the ring. The censure expressed in regard to
M. Aerrick by prominent Marylsnders, as
well as citizens OF the District, Is pointed, for
the reason that Maryland, and the city of BaIti-
more especially, n almost as directly interested
In the growth and prosperity Of Washington
as the people Of Washington themselves. The
prosperity Of Baltimore is largely and directly
attributable to the business derived from WASH
lngton under Its new growth; and that any
maryland Congressman should, for pay, or
through personal sympathy with the hide bound
old fogyism Of Washington, seek to arrest that
growth, and play into the hands of the Capitol
movers is felt to be a suicidal blunder.
