HIt is to be feared that the peo-
pie will be disappointed if they expect
from the present democratic legislature
any measures of practical reform.
They seem to think more Of the cleo
lion of a democratic President in
1876 than they do of the evils from
which the people are now suffering
This is q fair conclusion TO be deduced
from the action Of the House upon the
salary grab question. The Republican
member from Trumbull county offered
a resolution condemning the entire
salary bill, and demanding it's imme
diate and unconditional repeal. The
resolution was clear, explicit and plain.
and in no sense partisan. The demo-
Gratis could not vote for such . straight
forward, honest proposition. Here
was a chance. they seemed to think, to
make party capital. and they went to
work with the resolution as mere demo-
Gratis or partisans. The resolution was
referred to a committee of democrats,
and when it came back to the House it
had assumed a purely party shape. 1t
was full of partisan hate and malig-
nity-purely and simply q democratic
el~ectioneering document. To that shape
it passed by a party vote. Therefore,
We say again. the people can have no
hope of reform from the present demo-
cratic Legislature. The majority have
gone there as representatives of the
democratic party, and not of the peo-
pie. We can expect no good from a
body of men who would make a party
question Of the repeal of the obnoxious
salary bill, 1t shows that they care
more for party than they do for the
people.

EThe confirmation of Mr.. Cush-
ing as Chief Justice is doubtful.
There is a strong Republican oppo-
sition to him, and not without cause.
The main objections are that he is
opposed to all the changes in the
law and Constitution, which have
grown out of the war, and that to
put him at the head of the bench
would be to turn this branch of the
government over into the hands of
the old State rights, secession De-
mocracy.

the circle widens, and it is found that no city
of large proportions can be governed hon
estly. save by spasmodic movements of the
people, the country at large will wake up to
the consideration that our American cities
must be controlled on principles radically diff
ferent from those that now prevail They
will recognize that so-called party divisions
never apply in city politics and are only
covers and masks for fraud.
Philadelphia is to be congratulated upon the
promise for herself implied in the fact that
her public men take the alarm readily against
impending danger, and come out bravely to
fight the evil with little regard or considera-
ton for party lines. 1t is urgently to be hoped
that Colonel Mcclure will be elected. Reform
movements are very apt to be delusive, as we
know, in this direction; but a cause that APP
peals to the people in the name of political
honesty, and presents good case in support
of its appeal, should never be beaten at the
polls. Its defeat is the only sign that is abso-
lutely discouraging for popular government
Apathy on the part of the people where their
local interests are at stake, or adherence to
the shibboleth and hocus-pocus Of party
names where the only issue is one of honest
handling of public moncv, will indicate that
the evil is beyond ordinary remedy.

The Political CRISIS IN ENGLANp.-A
despatch special to the HERALD informs us
that Mr.. Gladstone and his Cabinet yesterday
sat in solemn council, and, after serious and
somewhat protracted delberation, decided to
accept the result Of the elections as adverse to
their policy. and to place their designations in
the hands of Her Majesty. Great excitement
prevailed In London, at the clubs and other
political centres, during the afternoon. The
Queen is looked Tor az Windsor to-day. and
1t 10 expected That Mr. Gladstone will wait
upon Her Majesty and advise her to call Mr..
Disraeli to her councils. Ths la.est returns
show that MIR. Disraeli will have a working
paiority of not fewer than fifty members.

DIRECTING TO UNLoAD-The committee ap-
pointed to investigate the alleged corruptions
Of the Department of Justice meets with
sudden obstruction. There is dislnclination
to ''unIoad" this glaring ''monstrosity," be-
cause there is danger that Attorney General
Landaulet Williams may be compelled to go
overheard with it. The committee, having
sent resolution to the House asking for
authority to send for persons and papers
and administer oaths, was informed yesterday
that the Speaker regards the resolution as
unprecedented and grossly disrespectful to
the Attorney General" How resolution
that has had hundreds of precedents can be
unprecedented, and what disrespect there can
be in examining the Attorney Generals
accounts, provided they are honest, we
are at loss to conceive. At all
events two republican members of the
committee who were not present at the Sat-
urday meeting, when the resolution was
adopted, attended yesterday and made Wig
orous effort to have it reconsidered. The SUBJ
ject comes up to-day. The very anxiety to
prevent thorough examination and to make
the investigation farce will induce the belief
that the Department of Justice is sink of
fraud and iniquity.
