The eepubltcan Party To-day.

No student of our political history
will deny that the Republican party
showes within its ranks both an indie
pendeDce of criticism and readiness
of reform which no other great and
dominant party has ever shown, and
which IL good sign of its real vitality,
and an augury of its continued and de-
served supremacy. The Democratic
party, which was so long In the ascen-
dant, became steadily more and more
corrupt, more and more besotted with
slavery, scorning the chance which
Douglas offered it Of assuming virtue
which it did not have, until it sunk
beneath the wrath and contempt of the
people. But it is the praise of the Re-
publicans that their press denounces
most strenuously NAL administration
of every kind, and that the Congress
which they control scrutinizes impair
TALLY and severely the conduct of ad-
ministrative officers, and that Repuh-
lican officers are removed and Republi-
can laws repealed when such action is
plainly proper.-Hdrper'S Weekly,
June 20.

How to Destroy CaterpIllars.

SUNMAN, IND, May 20.-It is best to

Prospects of the d ry Good. Trade.

The review Of the dry goods market
for last week in New York concluded
as follows:
The prospective future Of ,he dry
goods trade in connection with the fall
business is regarded by the sOundest
merchants as encouraging for many
reasons. The crop prospects in all
sections appear favorable, and the in
dustrial interests of the great Middle
and Eastern States have begin to re-
cuperate, although slowly, from the
effects of panic which became un-
governaDle through incompetent finan-
cial management. The country job
bers and retailers will carry over for
the coming season exceptionally light
stocks, aud an early, legitimate and
large demand for manufactured goods
is confidently anticipated.

Usually, election news has opened
we'll for the Democrats, and then
grown rapidly worse, as the official re-
turns came in. TAe contests Of this
yenr have proven al exception to the
rule. Day otter day the news gets
better. At first, the Democrats had
only fifteen majority in the House of
Representatives, then twenty. five, then
fifty-four, and now, after all the re-
turns are in. the telegraph puts it at
seoenty seuen. Better still, tho States
which have gone Democratic will elect
Senators enough to reduce the Radical
majority in the Senate to eight, possi-
bly, six. At this rate, it won't take
long TO get two-thirds majority in
the House and good working mnj,ri-
