The Milwaukee Sentinel of June 90
contains the following respecting the
high character the distinguished SER
vices, and the great ability of Senator
Howe:
Wisconsin may we'll be proud of
her senior Senator, who is universally
respected, not only in Washington but
throughout the country AS a poll
tician, iurist, and a Senator, he has
no superior, few rivals He possesses
the confidence Of the administration
of his associates in the Senate, aud of
all right-minded men. Naturally of
an acute, rather metaphysical, mind,
but balanced and regulated by d COM
prehensive knowledge of public affairs,
he is justly regarded as among the
soundest and most valuable of our lv-
ing statesmen. No cue doubts his IN
tegrlty; nobody alights his counsel in
regard to the conduct of public affairs
no Senator transcends him III useful

Massachusetts, is known through Web

The Result.

New York, July 3-In regard to
the Tllton Beecher trial, Mr.. Pearsall,
of counsel for 'rllton. to-day said he
could give no information in regard to
further movements In the case, and re-
turned the same answer to u specific
inquiry as to the truth OF the report
that an attempc would be made by
Mr.. Tilton to have Gen. Tracy lndlct-
ed for perjury.
Mr.. Sherman said he believed
there was no foundation for the report
that measures would be taken for the
arrest OF Moulton in connection with
the Lmder-Price atiidavits
Mr.. Beech says: The disagree
ment is as good as verdict for 8
cents, which was all that we ever
aimed at, inasmuch as it shows Tllton
has relieved himself Of the calumuy
and dispersion that found early vent 10
Plymouth Church circles, in investi-
eating committees, aud in Bacon let
ters." -
Mr. Beecher looks upon the result
of the trial as giving him all the vim
dication it was in the power of the
court to give, For his chief vindica-
ton be looks to the future. Il am,
said he, ''good for twenty years work
yet, and before that is done malice
will have spent itself, ignorance will
have become informed, and mlscon-
ception of character will be corrected
Being asked what he thought Of the
mallgnity displayed by some Of bis
ministerial brethren, Beecher made
many excuses for their conduct, but
added: ''If [ strike back, / shall
never but once. [ don't went to
quarrel, and | shan't if { can avoid it
but [ do not by any means propose tc

The CELTIC LANGUAGE.-A chair
of the Celtic Language has been en-
dewed in the University Of Edinburgh,
Scotland. At the endowment meeting
Professor Morley said that thorough
knowledge of the Celtic language was
required for the study of English liter
AZURE The Celtic element has largely
contributed to the greatness of the En-
glish speaking race, and within late
years disposition has been manifested
to bury Its literature and language in
oblivion Professor Blackie. of Edin-
burgh, the prime mover in the matter,
considered the fact that considerable
portion of the inhabitants Of Great
Britain still spoke the Celtic tongue,
and that 1t was very necessary that
elergymen and others called upon to
teach in Celtic districts should have an
opportunity afforded them Of studying
the language at one or more of the
universities. The establishment of
this chair will be hailed with great In
terest by the majority Of the Celtic
citizens of the United States.

THE FIGHT IN fs76.

Let no man deceive himself with
the idea that the next presidential race
will be between any other than the
two old political parties of the country
the Republican and Democratic. Matters
are so assuming shape for the coming
contest that this is an almost absolute
certainty. The third party movement
is a dead failure and the voters must
make up their minds to make their
political bed with either the Republi-
can party or the old hydra headed po-
Iitical monster known as the Demo-
cratic party. Other names may be
assumed, but turn where you will and
you see the same old crowd at the
helm and debating the policy to be
pursued. There is no lodging the
thing, the issue In 1876 will be mar
rowed down between the Republi cans
and the Democrats. Meanwhile there
is a crowd of what is termed ''lnde-
pendent voters" who, Micawbe like, are
waiting for something to turn up, and
anything pertaining to 'new party
movement is dear in their eyes. But
thew will watch and wait In vain; Joy
will not come to them In the morning
in the shape of their long wished for
desire and they will be compelled to
seek comfort either from Republicans
or Democrats. Will they join that
political organization which the best
dictates of their conscience tells them
is the same party that they could not
fellowship with in years past, and
which remains the same organization
IN animus, purposes and desires, not
withdrawing the great effort it has
made at REFORM" :. For their support
will be offered the candidates Of the
Republican party, that party through
whose instrumentality the nation was
saved from destruction regardless of
the stumbling blocks placed in the
way at every point by this same Dem
ocrate party which is now down on
its knees asking the support of men
who would spurn few years ago the
idea of giving it aid and comfort know
ing that its success was detrimental to
the best interests of the country.
