The people Of this country lave e1-
perisnced great evils trou, new parties
during the last thirty years. The know
Nothing" party which crushed out the
old whig party, was disgrace to the
country, and did great deal to demoral-
iae the people. 1t undoubtedly made
men careless as to the truth, and many
men were led by it to disregard the
solemnity of an oath. This party was
followed in turn by the Republican party,
which is now regarded as more corrupt
and e1travagant than all that c1-
,sted before it.
The old Wing party is admitted to
have been far more honorable and high
toned than either of its predecessors,
oct Of which it was formed principally.
As each new party has proved more cor
rupt than it's predecessor, we see no
good to grow out of a new party now.
And if another party were formed 1t
would be filled by the worst class-men
that had been driven from both parties
We, therefore, believe little good could
DO obtained through any new orgsnlza'
non, The best way to reform abuses Is
for the people to fall into the Demo
cratic party-it has never been corrupt
cd and has always proved wise and
economical in its policy.

INEXPENSIVE FASHION.

Fourteen hundred young Americans
are students at the universities and
eollepes, music schools and conserva-
tories of Germany. The amount Of
money expended IN this way Is very
large, and inasmuch as such young
men never exceed those who are edu-
Gated in this country in anything ex'

they should not attend colleges in the

CULPABLE CARBLBssNEsS. The tire at
the Opera House on Thursday night, in
dicates great carelessness on the part of
the man having charge of the heating
apparatus. The building Is thoroughly
heated by steam. and there should no no
danger from the wood igniting from the
pipes. This. however, seems to have
been the case. The great distance of
the place where the flooring wa1 burned
from the fire under the boiler, would in
dlcate that the water was very low in
bhe boiler, and the steam was cf q much
hotter character than is generally found
in exhaust pipes. 1t seems = very proy-
dental circumstance that tho fire was
observed before it made further pro-
gress, and that il occurred where 1t
could be 50 readily discovered. 1t might
perhaps in ten or fifteen minutes more
have broken out II number OF places.
The occurrence will impress the COM
pany with defect in the Opera House
which ought not to have been 30 long
overlooked. The modes Of egress are
not enough and more should be added
and those that exist enlarged.
Perhaps the fire could not have made
ita appearance in more dangerous
place than where it did, just in front of
the only great door opening to the street.
There is scarcely ever q great calamity
that is not accompanied by several CO.
incidents. 1T seems necessary that there
shall be. Is it were, IA war Of the ele-
ments to produce disasters. Had q gale
Of wind been blowing through .he large
passage way to the auditorium At the
time the fire might have assumed
much more dangerous proportions. anc
the CONSERVATION in the audience, Ma
sonic lodge rooms, and in other soci atie
that meet in the building, all hayin,
cgress one way, become a serious mat
ter. There is scarcely doubt that tn
company will give this matter immediat
attention.

WARLIKE.-The Philadelphia Inquirer
and other papers condemn this activity
exhibited in the different Navy Yards, az
prejudlcal to business, and calculated to
lnjure the Country at large. 1t says the
people want no war, they have had
enough Of that to last for long time. =
Such rumors a. we have had are perni-
cious. and war itself would be even more
pernicious and unpopular.-Re Republican.
Very true. The millions that have
been wasted on tine Army and Navy,
have done injury rather than good. But
this has been the character of the Ad-
ministration throughout and if We run
back the career of the REPUBLICAN party
from its birth we will find that is sprang
into being upon the pent-up passions O:
violent men, and they are now seeking
something to feed their rage, on which
they may continue to spend their wrath.
1t is the general opinion Of the country
that Grant and his party leaders see no
hope Of being continued in power unless
war or civil strife is brought about.

SPECIE PAYMENTS IN a YEAR.
Tie Hodrd'ng Of Greenbarks Instead Of
Coin ddrtscd.

Coin ddrtscd
The "Financier" of this week contains
an open letter from William NJ. Gros-
venor to Secretary Bristow, discussing
Wnat will be q new thought to many who
have not carefully scrutinized the Re-
sumption Act, namely the power OF the
Secretary Of the Treasury to go ahead
and take steps for the resumption of
Specie payments in the Cent, unial year
without further legislation Ly Codgress.
The act OF January authorizes the Secrc-
tary OF the treasury to sell 4, or per
cent. bonds at not lc than par in coin
to the extent necessary 20 enable him 10
redeem IN coin the legal tenders out
standing on January /, 1879. Mr.. Gros-
venor's proposition Is that while the
price AZ which the bonds shall be sold is
liked by law, the kind Of money TO be
received III exchange for them is not.
Now, instead Of selling the tonds for
gold, and boarding the gold, the Secre-
tary has the power to sell them for legal
tenders, until the day of resumption
The boarding OF gold would effect foreign
markets, and might depress the price of
) per cent. bonds below par. Accumula-
tlon Of legal tenders would have the re-
verse effect. With prospect Of speedy
resumption 10 strengthen public credit

amount of 500, ,000,0 900 could probably be
sold in a single year without materially
depressing the price. But before lega
tenders to tina amount should be pur.
chased and stored in the Treasury, i,
would require dollar in gold TO buy &
dollar in paper. The premium on GOLD
would vanish. For all practical par
poses, specie resumption would b,
reached without Withdrawing a singh
coin from the present store. Aud thi
could all be done by the end of the Cen
tenial year. With early warning of tn,
intention of the Government TO resum,
at that date, business men would adjus
their affairs to the new order Of things
and no harm be done to business inter
ests.

Increase ordinary tNpehCl'"ics w Pe' ~
Increase OF population .'.''' Az per ct'
| The Bulletin also gives n table of the
taxation and population of New foIk
State in 1860 and 1875. which shows an
Increase in taxation o: 260 per cent. and
in population Is per cent. These figures
convey an impressive idea of the degree
in which taxation contributes to the
severe impression from which the busl-
ness of the country Is now sutferinR.-
The Bulletin remarks that IN conn pairing
the present government expenditures
with those of ante war times, it must
always be remembered that the interest
of tho debt makes an inevitable n idltIon
of over 500, 900, 900 year to Our taxes;
and for this re ison the comparison has
been confined to the ordinary" expen-
ses, which do not include payments on
account Of debt. The largeness Of our
interest payments, amounting az they
do to nearly dou BILE the taxation OF 1860
constitutes the strongest possible reason
Why the ordinary expenditures should
| be constantly subjected to the seTerest
| Limitation. That class of expenses have
| been permitted TO increase 200 per cent.
over what they were in in in 1850, while
the increase in the population has only
been 40 per cent. This enormous i'll
crease in political expenditures is not
confined to the national government. 1t
extends equally to the State adminis,ra- :
tions ana to all the minor forms of gov
ernment. The tax levy Cf New York
State. for instance, has risen from $4,-
376,l65 in 1860 to $l5, ,727, ,4S2 in 1875, the
increase i'll the tx being, rs above
stated, 2G0 per cent, while the popula-
ton has increa ed only 2S psr cent; and
these startling comparisons are but q
sample of what exists in almost every
State, county, city and town in the
| Union.

4 Harmless Dumb Man.

Among the novelties in the peniten-
tiary at Shelby county, Tennessee, has
been dumb convict who, to the quality
of dumbness, added that of idiocy.
Quite curiosity was this man Wylie,
and one offering much entertainment to
everybody, for his crazy freaks of singing
and dancing and making faces were funny
In the extreme. So harmless was he,
though, and SO docile that he was allowed
to polish the boots of the officers of the
prison, going outside the walls every
morning to perform his task. SO, for
two Years, Wylie has been one of the
features of the institution, but he isn't
special feature any longer. A few Sun
days ago came the opportunity the dumb
man had been waiting for. He stole two
coats and a pair of pantaloons and all the
money he could and was gone. The
country was secured and Wylie was cap
tured again, but he wasn't the same
Wyle in most respects. He was well
dressed, fluent of speech and anything
but idiotic. He was taken back, but
doesn't clean boots now and doesn't
attract much sympathy as poor, harm
less lunatic.
The true northerner., 1875-05-07
Tea Drunkards.

DIR. Arlidge, one of the Pottery In
spectors of Staffordshire, has put forth
a very sensible protest against very
pernicious custom, which rarely receives
sufficient attention, either from the med
ical profession or the general public
He says that the women of the working
classes make tea principal article of
diet instead of an occasional beverage.
They drink it several times day, and
the result is lamentable amount of
sickness.
Tea, in anything beyond moderate
quantities, is as distinctly narcotic
poison as is opium or alcohol. 1t is
capable of running the digestion, of en-
feebling and disordering the hearts ac-
ton, and of generally shattering the
nerves. And it must be remembered
that not merely is it n question of mar
cotic excess, but the enormous amount
of hot water which tea-bibbers necessa-
rily drink is exceedingly prejudicial,
both to digestion and nutrition. In
short, without pretending to place this
evil on a par as to general effect with
those caused by alcoholic drinks, one
may well insist that our teetotal reform
ers have overlooked, and even to small
extent encouraged, form of animal in
diligence which is as distinctly sensual,
extravagant and pernicious as any beer
drinking or gin-swilling in the world.

A Woman's Search for Medical Kduca-
ttnu


The Concord IN. H. Monitor says !:
"Miss Eva j. Bickford, daughter OF
Jerome Bickford, of this city, has shown
degree of perseverance In procuring
medical education which is very rare
among either gentlemen or ladies'. In
1863 she was q member of our high
school in this city, and in 1867 secured
the appointment of instructor in the
normal department of the school for
contrabands at Wilmington, Del, where
she remained for two years. The year
1869 was passed at the Medical School
of Philadelphia, where she attended the
lectures of the year. Being desirous OF
advantages beyond the reach of ladies in
the medical schools of our country, she
went to Europe in 1871, and spent six
months at Edinburg. Finding that
some of the privileges of the college
were not to be accorded to persons of
her sex, she left and went to Switzer-
land, where she passed six months III
the study of anatomy at Zurich. From
thence she went to Vienna, where her
highest aspirations were fully met, one
of the first colleges in the world being
open, in all its departments, to ladies.
Here she had free access to hospital
for two and half years, in which the
number of patients seldom fell below
1900, and devoted herself to all the
branches taught in the medical course,
giving special attention to obstetrics and
diseases of the female sex. In this line
OF study she had five months experience
i'll the lying-in hospital, where the annual
number of births exceeds 10000"
