Republicans who rcal in yesterdays TnIn-
uxE tho news that Pennsylvania, aIassa-
ehusetts, New Jersey, Minnesota, md Wis

last year voted Democratic, Ind now gone as
decidedly Republican. must not mistake tho
true import Of the facts. Tho Democratic
victory in Massachusetts in 1874 was won on
a side issue,-prohibition That in New
York was 1nainly personal tribute to Mr.
T1LDEx for his ability and patriotism in tho
prosecution and conviction Of TWEED, but
tho result in both cases was aitled by popu-
lar disgust antt discomfort on the part of The
people with tho Republican majority in Con-
gross which Ind permitted md largely shared
in tho bacA-pay swiudle, and in various job
hing and speculative legislation. In Ohio
thero was change in favor Of the Den,ocrat-
ic party which promised to bo permanent.
III Pennsylvania, the Democrats in 1871 took
advanced ground in favor Of hart1-money aud
against imitation, aud thoy elected large md
jority Of thu Congressman, and also mn}or-
ity Of both branches Of tho Legislature, Sc

There, too, tho Democratic s1ccess promised
to be permanent. Contltlons Of carrying, in
tho cvont Of tho nomination Of any respacta-
Tile Democrat for President, tue whole or sub
stantinlly tho whole vote OF tho old Southern
States, Ohio and Pennsylvania certain, aud
possibly Now York, 1udiaua, and the Pacific
Statos, would place the election Of Demo-
CRITIC candidate beyond all question.
In tho meantime, both parties in Congress,
under tho lead Of ignorant mon md weak

question Of national finances the disastrous
panie falled to develop statesman willing

respondent snys thu. tho danger is frnyo and
imminent, and tho ronetllcs snggesteti remote

Tho danger is not from tho sinking Of the

tho washings Of tho rivers, after which 1t Is
held that tho whole district will 10 swallowed

aucient Venetian lsepublio aprrehcnded the

Of thu Rivers l,rcnta, l,acchiglione, piayc,

quently overhowcd its lanks, spreading dir
case throughout tho adjoining districts, and
the Austrian Government, then III dominion,
and ct tue instance Of tho Province Of Patlua,
diverted tho lrenta from its channel, and
permitted it to empty into tlio lagoon. This

Fighting an Alligator.

Monday afternoon, says the Quitman
Ca Reporter, party of eight or ten
met at the Okapilco creek, to seine the
different lakes and eddies" along the
run of the creek between the turnpike
and the railroad bridges. Nothing I'M
usual TRANSFERRED on this occasion until
late in the afternoon, when, in seeing a
deep lake formed by bend in the chan
mel of the stream, the seine became so
heavy and difficult to drag that it was
concluded that it was hung to a root or
log on the bottom. Lum Devane, lad
16 years of age, went under for the pur-
pose of disentangling the seine. Upon
reaching the bottom, distance of some
six or seven feet, he found what he sup
posed to be log, and embracing it
started TO the surface of the water with
it. His surprise as well as that of the
party can better be imagined than ex-
pressed when, upon rising, the supposed
log was found to be an alligator. AS
soon az the waters surface was reached
the infuriated monster, taking in the
situation at n glance, made n terrific
lunge at Devane, and striking him in the
breast, knocked him into deep water,
and, continuing the attack caught hlm
between his vise-like jaws around the
waist. Seeing the danger of their com
rade the rest of the party sprang to his
relief. Fortunately for Devane he was
upon the outside and the alligator was
upon the inside of the seine, which,
being strong and firmly held at each end,
somewhat impeded the vicious reptile IN
his attack. This, together with the
prompt and fearless action of the entire
party, who seized his alligatorship by
the tail and legs and commenced to use
their knives on him diligently, is all that
saved the life of Lum Devane. He was
finally extricated from the jaws of the
maddened monster, and escaped with a
few painful, though not dangerous
bruises and bites. The alligator WIS
about eight feet in length, and il was

The Spirit OF servia and Montenegro.

Perhaps the Servians are blind to the
better qualities of the Turks. But wher
ever we find Turkish rule in Europe
there we also find resentments too deep,
too passionate, too unreasOning TO be
soothed by the craft of diplomacy. Those
animosities, whether we like them or not,
will prove to be political forces OF the
highest Importance. They would OF
themselves suffice to render the position
of Turkey untenable. AT present they
make it peculiarly difficult for Prince
Milan to hold his subjects in leash. The
Servians have rude democratic temper,
and they have already shown how cheap
ly they rate the sanctity OF any sovereign
who thwarts their will. The representa-
to bid against him for popular favor. Oh
the other hand, he cannot be expected to
fly in the face of positive demands from
Vienna, since he is largely dependent on
the support of Austria. A fierce and
willful ruler like Kara George might have
dared every thing rather than allow Her
zegovina to continue under the rule of
Turkey, and he might have had good
reason to believe that Austria or Russia
would lend helping hand rather than
allow him to be beaten down but it
would be unreasonable TO look for so bold
stroke from mere lad like Prince
Milan, untried alike in council and in
war.
The position of Montenegro is pretty
much the same as that of Servia It's
people have been battling with the Turks
for centuries, and they have never yet
been conquered. When Turkey claimed
dominion over them at the Congress of
Paris, their ruler was able to reply that
they had always been able to defend their
freedom. AS our special correspondent
says " the one object of their fife is to
fight the Turks" and they are soldiers
to man. There is not more warlike
race in Europe, and it would be difficult
to find better guerilla troops. The noun
tain Businesses enable them TO defy such
masses of regular soldiers as would over
run a fiat country of the same size,
and hence war with Turkey does not
fill them with any terror.

Scalped.

Yesterday afternoon, at Remington
Station, on the Cincinnati and Marietta
railway, Carrie Dawson, employed in a
paper-mill, while standing near revolv-
ing shaft, was caught by her hair and
the scalp torn from her head, stripping
the skin from the back of her neck to the
eyebrows. Considerable time elapsed
before medical aid reached her, and it
was not deemed advisable to attempt to
restore the lifeless scalp to its former
place. To-day DIR. A. j. Howe, of this
city, commenced the restoration of the
skin to the wounded girls head by TAX
ing small pieces of the scalp from the
head of her sister, who gave herself free
W for her injured sisters relief, while
another lady offered skin from her own
shoulder to supply what was needed for
the forehead. Supplies sufficient to
start growth of membrane were taken
from each of these ladies, and while Miss
Dawson's condition is dangerous, her
physician entertains considerable hope
of her recovery and of the success of his
effort to cover her head with new skin.

Resentful Firemen.

The firemen of West Troy, n. Y, had
parade a few days ago, and among the
organizations in line was the Oswald
Hose Company, at whose head was at
first put the best of the bands of music
engaged for the occasion. The march
had not progressed far when the band
was changed to another point in the line
and it's place filed with amateur players.
The angered members thereupon retired
from the procession and took their hose
cart to their house. The next day the
Trustees of the village formally disband
ed the company and organized new one
of boys. The old members, angry and
resentful, stripped the cart of its ornu
mental wheels, silver platings and other
things that they had themselves bought.
The Trustees then removed what was left
to what they supposed was safe place,
and set two policemen to watch it but
at night the firemen stole it and took it
across the river to Troy. where they hid
it in the Osgood steamer house. The
Trustees found it and put policeman
on guard, but it was again stolen, by
piecemeal this time, before they could
get it back to West Troy. 1t is now sup
posed to be at the bottom of the Hudson.
In the meantime incendiary fires have
been of nightly occurrence in West

POe's Brain.

The singular preservation of Shelley's
heart when his remains were cremated is
matched by that of Poe's brain. A med
ical gentleman, present when all that
was left of the author of "The Raven
was disinterred, states that the brain
had not been destroyed. He adds that
the cerebral mass, as seen through the
base of the skull, evidenced no sign OF
disintegration or decay, though, of
course, it was somewhat diminished in
size. We are somewhat sorry that these
sepulchral details should have been made
public. They destroy an ideal. Do
what we will, since reading what the
pious resurrectionists disclosed, the i'm
age of Poe rises before us, not in phvs-
ical beauty and sorrowful song, but as a
hideous skeleton. Think his teeth
rafting in the coffin when his skull was
lifted into n new repository :

A " Distinguished American Lady.v

People in this country have not for
gotten the notorious Josie Mansfield, a
quarrel about whom sent Jim Fisk to his
grave and Edward Stokes to the Peni-
Tertiary. Latterly she passed ont of
notice, but now we hear of her in Eu-
rope, where she passes for "distin-
guished American lady" Dom Piatt,
in a letter from Paris, thus refers TO
her:
1--WE met friend from Trouville, the
fashionable summer resort here, who
gave us not bad item. The landlord
of the hotel said to our friend
al have distinguished American
lady in my house.
"Ah, indeedp exclaimed ON friend
and what is her namel'
"' Madame Mansfield, was the enthu-
siastic reply 'and she is very distin
gllished. She receives earls, dukes and
princes.
"Our friend put on his thinking-cap.
He turned over all the Mansfelds he
had ever heard of. At last he cried
Josie Mansfield
=" All you know her 2
c. BY reputation only.
She is very extravaganza very
extravagant. She changes her dress four
and five times in twenty-four hours,
dimes in her room q Ia carte and has
broiled chicken every day"

POe's Remains.

Edgar A. Poe's leading idea concerned
the relation of the soul and body after
death. Both in his poems and in his
stories he gave the fancy that the dead
body had peculiar life of its own. In
one of his poems he writes about liking
and feeling his home in the grave. His
own coffin at Westminster, near Balti-
more, has recently been changed. The
skull was lying in the position in which
the head lay when buried. The grave
clothes and all except the bones had
crumbled to dust, leaving the skeleton
white and bare. The brain was in an al
most perfect state of preservation. The
cerebral mass, as seen through the base
of the skull, evidenced no signs of dis
Indignation or decay, though, of course
il is somewhat diminished i'm size. The
skull was intact, and the general skele-
ton was in as good condition as an ana
tomical preparation in a doctors office.
