"THEM PRINCIPLEs."-The New York
Uorld and the Toledo Blade have each cx.
hausted several columns Of editorial drlvel,
lately, in calculating what they call the "prin.
ciples' of the Democratic and Republican par
ties, respectively, without arriving at any place
in their maunderngs which, even the weakest
intellect could, by any chance, mistake for con-
clusions. The "principles" OF both are ex'
tremely simple-so much so that we don't see
how even such antiquated party bats as the
World and Blade can fail to read them Alright
Democracy, pure and undeAled, is the last and
lowest stage of druling idiocy, and the New
York World is the best illustration OF it we
know Of Republcanism, on the other hand
is the bringing together of all that is scoun'
drelly and rapacious in human nature, and that
focused to one intense point Of rascality, and
YOU have the "principles" Of Republicarism
These "principles" are amply illustrated BY
protective tariff laws, Credit Mobilier transac
t;ons and back pay steals. Weshall look, next
for editorial disqulsitions in those papers, OF
the evils to be dreaded from the practice o
witchcraft.

there seems to us to be some reasons to sus-
pect that such is the case We are warmly in
favor of the Granger movement, and would
not lay a straw in its way if we could; but a
Grange organization in mountain mining
camp like Silver City, sounds a little sage
brushy to say the least.

A PRETTY SCIENTIFIC TRIcK.-The follow
ing is indorsed by Prof. Young, of Dartmouth
College 1t will afford, perhaps, an occasional
hours amusement "alound the evening lamp"
and stimulate scientific research among the
young folks: Wet a thick piece of wrapping
paper or half a sheet of heavy fools-cap paper;
dry it thoroughly on top Of the stove; lay it
down upon a vanished table or dry woolen
cloth and rub it briskly with piece of India.
rubber. 1t will become strongly electrified,
and if tossed against the wall of the room, or
on the looking glass will adhere long time.
Tear some tissue paper into bits one-eighth
inch square, and piece of paper cleo
triied in the way described will attract them
in a very amusing manner. Set japanned
tea.tray (the varnish must be in good order, not
worn off much or cracked) upon three dry COB
let's lay into the tray the electrified paper, and
on touching the tray you will get smart little
shock, lift the paper out of the tray, and on
touching the tray again you will get another
spark, but Of the opposite kind of electricity
replace the paper and you get another shock,
and so on indefinitely. The tray and paper
form, in fact. a very nekt and effective electro
phus with which can be performed many of the
experiments described in the text bookseller.

GETTING READY-The Pope is preparing
the way for his demise. He has issued pa
per of some description, in which he expresses
his conviction that the end il near at hand.
The great anxiety of the old man seems to be
about who shall be his successor in Office; and
unwilling to leave the choice of an occupant
for the throne of Peter, to his god, he prudent
ly suggests an appropriate person for the papal
robes to descend upon when the present wear;
er Of those historic garments shall need them
no more. Fearful, also, that an election cannot
be freely and safely conducted ir Rome, the
convener of the Sacred College is authorized
to select the "principality of Monaco, or some
French town, or even Malta" So the success
sor to Plus TX may possibly be elected on Pro-
testant soil, or in some one of the gambling
hells of Monaco, or even in some obscure
French town. What fall would be there!
But then it should be remembered that God
chasteneth whom he loveth.
