DR.. John Lord ON Moral Progress,

DR.. John Lord, who gave an interesting
series of lectures in Rutland early the pres
ent winter is delivering course of forty
eight lectures in Boston, and on Friday
last he delivered his lecture on Columbus.
In closing, he thus speaks of moral pro-
gress
We know that moral progress does not
keep pace with physical improvements.
Yet we have hopes-not from schools
where the brain and not the heart is cult
waited not in popular education which
only makes ignorant people conccited not
from newspapers which feed gossiping
curiosity and dilute knowledge not from
books full of infdelity under the guise of
science not from churches which cannot
be sustained without sensational oratory
and the virtual neglect of the poor and ig-
norant not from legislatures controlled
by monopolis's not from philanthropic
conventions to ventiate fanaticsm not
from Sabbath-school libraries, which insult
the human understanding rot from col
leges which direct the mind to mere scien-
tific knowledge with the idea OF i'm
proving fortunes not from an epicurean
philosophy which prctends to be most adj
vanced not from societies which merely
galvanize without giving life; agencies
which spread truth as men iun factories.
Not these will exalt nations, although in
fidel savants tell us so. AS survey the
moral evils which are increasing every day,
the absence of great men in high positions
the abandonment TO the very pleasures
which ruined the ancient world, fall in
with the philosophy of Gibbon, the ever
lasting swinging of the pendulum-glo
decline and ruin. When | see what chris
tianity has done, how it has survived i'll
own corruptons, what it promises to un
born generations, these mournful visions
fall away. throw to the moles and thu
bats all speculation which either science OF
history suggests, and fall back on the Ger
titudes of faith, the never-ending victories
of truth.

The Republic of Washington and the
Inter- Ocean of Chicago have resolved
themselves into q mutual admiration soci-
ETY.. The latter says of the Republic:
" Published at the national capital, it pre-
sents faithful reflex of republican seLti-
ment and work throughout the land. Its
articles are characterized by sound sense
and reason" The Republic returns the
compliment in kind, by saying that it holds
"the Inter. Ocean to be reliable exponent
of the principles of republicanism, and of
the policy and efforts of the republican
party" This brotherly love and admira-
ton is, perhaps, commendable, but we fail
to see any ''sound sense and reason" in the
following, which we extract from the last
number of the Republic, we give the article
entire: "Carl Schurz should remember
that fair exchange is no robbery.
There is so little difference Jetueen an e.
Confederate and the rejected senator from,
Missouri that zoe might ae DeN haze one as
"the other. The new senator tried to be-
tray his country and goes IN the senate
the old one tried to betray his party, and
goes out of it. 1t is only question OF
reward after ALL" We submit that this
is not a "falthful reflex of republican SEN
timent throughout the land The defeat
of Carl Schurz was received with deep re-
greet by almost the entire republican press
and party of the country, and this regret
was heightened by the fact that his success
sor was an sex Confederate" general. II
the Republic cannot, the country and party
can see vast difference between the two
senators, and if their voice could have beer
needed, there would have been no change
This pretended "refex of republican sent
ment" is anything but reassuring to thost
who are seeking ga common ground OF
which the republican party can stand, ant
from which they can again achieve victory

of Lincoln's time into the senate together.
He came down the aisle to take the oath
amid much applause, and as he returned
to his seat, was presented with a
beautiful boquet In addition to the
one upon the desk that awaited
his coming. One of these was accompaD-
led by card addressed to "President
johnson, with the compliments of Mrs.
Ewing" With the other was a card bear
ing simply the initials IN. g. K" Mr..
johnson does not seem broken with the old
storms of state, nor would one believe him
to be man OF sixty-seven years, as he is
His appearance is quite the same as when
he figured before the nation in days gone
by. He received a large share of the
hearty greetings and handshaking among
the senators, new and old, and their friends,
during the recess until one o'clock, which
followed the taking of the oath. He Is
really excessively lionized. The new scna-
tor from New York, Mr.. Herman, was
treated with the utmost courtesy by the
ever urbane Mr.. Conkling, who diligently
sought out the old senators and brought
them forward to be presented to his new
colleague.

Louisiana recognized and Pinchback adj

nifty to display the wardrobe of
fine dresses that she has in waiting
with which to adorn the honors of sena-

enjoying social equality in Washington in
the event of her husband being accepted as

the queens of society here than has even

John mitchell.

The English lawyers found they had run
afoul of knotty question when they I'M
dertook to define John Mitchells status as
felon. After learned rummaging
among its mass of statutes and precedents,
of which English law Is composed, it was
ascertained, as the net result, that Nit
chell could not be arrested, after escaping
from the penal colony, except in the
United Kingdom. But now that the term
for which he was sentenced has expired,
he could be arrested only for the INSIDE
meanor of escaping-a common law Of
fence not heinous enough to call for such
punishment as a state offender ought to be
visited with, if punished at all. Again,
there Is no part of his sentence remaining
TO be fulfilled, and yet he has not fulfilled
it and he is not felon in the sense that
he may be sent to prison, yet is felon in
the sense that he is disqualified by his SEN
tence from sitting in parliament. The
amable but aimless agitator would have
done better with his newspaper business in
this country, poor as that was, than in his
trip to Tipperary to run for Parliament.

The last emperor of China died of small
pox, and as the disease appeared on the

At one Of the largest and most notable
of the "kettledrums," last week, no less
than ten kinds of tea were served to the
fashionable throng. The servants were at
tired in Chinese costume, and the cups and
saucers were of the most beautiful descrip-
| ton. There was also n ''tea punch" for
the gentlemen, so-called, perhaps, because
it is made chiefly of whiskey.-[ New York

When Lancondamine, in the year 1745,
visited the region of the Andes, the hight
of the city of Quito was determined at
9,506 feet above the level of the sea. In
1903 this had decreased, according to Hum
boldt, to $3.50. In 1881 Boussingault found
it to be 1867, while Orion, in 1867, re.
duced it to $500: and, finally, Reiss and
Stubel, in 1870, found it TO be but 8, 35t
above the sea level. Quito must, therefore
be approaching sea level at the rate of 24C
feet in 1875 years.

Grants Third Term PARTY SfilI
R00SffiJ

A short time since Grant is said to
have boosted that he conld "te reelected
tomorrow" This was taken up by many
Of the offce-holders, who were heard to
declare that he could, and that there was
no other Republican in the country that
could get as many votes. Now we find
the Grant party taking the place of the
Republican party. In fact many of the
Grant office-holders have the audacity tc
go about saying that the Republican Con.
gress is so corrupt that the party cannot
stand another campaign, and it will re
quire a third nomination of Grant t.
drag it through. ...
That Grant relies upon the aid OF hi!
eighty thousand holders there il
no doubt. Under him the Office holders
have been increased about thirty thou
sand, and these men feel their indebted
ness. But there is another feature il
Grants course. He has never fiinchet
from filling the offices with his relatives
And his ofice-holders have followed his
example until the official positions al
over the country are mere family conve
nienccs.
1t is a common thing to see an office
holder have his son in position as clerl
or assistant, and a nephew or two il
some other Office under him This is SC
in the Custom House and in the Interna
Revenue Office, and in the post-office
and everywhere else, we presume. Hence
it becomes an important matter 20 whole
families and their connections TO keel
these snug places. Now the influence oi
eighty Thousand families is great be
glnning to start with. This is the reli
ance Of the Grant party, aud when We
reflect that they are all active politicians
wire-pullers, they must not be regarded
as weak and insignificant; on the con
trary they form the backbone Of the
opposition to the Democratic party, anc
will have to be overcome before the lat
ter can succeed in Reforming the Gov
ernment and bringing it back to tn,
good old system of economy that pre-
vailed before the war.

MORE RADICAL FRAUDs.-It is now said
that fraud has been discovered in which
some of the Custom House officers Of New
York are implicated in smuggling mil
lion dollars worth of silks. The silks
were in cases covered with pieces of cot.
ton goods. The temptation for such dis.
honesty is very great, and if the truth
could be told we doubt not that many
fortunes have been made by Grant $
office holders in this way.
