ONE of the immediate results of the
Centennial Gush which now pervades
certain classes in both sections of the coun-
try is the proposition to organize Centen-
nial Legion, to be composed of military
organizations from the original thirteen
States of the Union. 1t is assumed that
the participation of such an organization in
the Centennial ceremonies at Philsdelphia
next year would prove to be an acceptable
feature of the occasion. The Petersburg
Indez and Appeal however, is rude enough
to throw cold water upon the proposlton
by propounding the following:
ssIs Il proposed to have any colored troops In
the Centennial LegioA7 And is Butler to lead
the column once sgaini 1t is we'll enough to
understand fully all the particulars OF the
programme before the procession starts.
Of course, if the Boston Gushers and
their Southern Democratic friends have full
control of the matter, these questions may
be answered in the negative. But inasmuch
as the blacks fought side by side with the
whites in the war against Great Britain, and
as they earned their title to citizenship by
fighting the same way for the preservation
of the Union In the late civil war, there
seems to be no sufficient reason why they
should not be recognized at the Centennial
celebration Of the nations nativity. But
the Southern Democracy may be counted
out when the Gush leads them so far in the
direction of reconciliation as to accept
among the results of the war submission
to the fact ofcolored citizenship. They gush
tip-top to that point, and are willing to en-
brace all the Yankees who stay at home and
vote the Democratic ticket. The moment,
however, that the "nigger'' intrudes or
q ''carpet-bagger" asserts himself as citi-
zen, they refuse to gush worth cent.

l. If the Republican party is to be set down
as opposed to working men because The
NATIONAL REPUBLICAN and the Washington
Chronicle refuse to be governed any longer by
the typographical Union, what is to be the
status Of the Democratic party, whose organ
in washington-the Sunday Herald-takes
substantially the same view that those papers
do of that tyrranical organization, which un-
dertakes to manage the business affairs of all
hitting offices in the city, without having
a cent of capital invested or at risk in any
way, and which persistently prevents honest
and independent working men from earning
living at such prices as they themselves con-
slider fair and reasonable, both to employer and
employei

THE Sunday Herald broadly hints that
Senator Sargent was once the recipient of
a letter regarding certain Pacific coast in
terests, which it dares him to print. If
there is such a letter in existence, which
we doubt, 1t was probably written in conf
dence, and the author of it would no doubt
object to a betrayal of that confidence by
making it public. Mr.. Sargent has nothing
TO fear from such innuendoes. Even if
they were based upon facts, an assumption
we have no hesitation in denying, no hon.
orable man would be guilty of exposing a
private correspondence Of the kind so
vaguely alluded to by the Herald. 1t Itshould
be careful, however, when it attempts to
unearth the proceedings of "some two years
since" A Democratic ex-senator from
California might be exposed, and that would
be different result from the one it seeks
in attempting to injure the character of an
acknowledged Republican leader.

THE Baltimore Gazette thinks that, di-
vided as the Democratic party may be by
the Vaccinations Of specious demagogues,
the successful formation of party lines on
the basis of principle is yet possible. Evil
dently it believes the day Of miracles has
not passed. The Democratic party has no
principle left except hostility to the results
of the war and love for the reasonable fal-
lacy of State Rights. The demagogues
who divide it append to this principle spe-
cious appeals for cheap money in one To-
cality and hard money in another, and pro.
tective tariff in one place and free trade in
another. This they do either to mislead
the people and thereby gain Office, or to
conceal the real animus of their party. AS
soon as the Vaccinations of the dema.
gogues are overcome the people will dis
cover that animus in all Its hideous treason,
and it will require miracle indeed to in.
duce them TO support it.

THIS from the New York Tribune rela-
tive to the suggested change of the policy
of our Government regarding the Cuban
question:
that some of the desperate adventurers around
for foreign war before the next Presidential
election"
In other words, the Tribune would lead
its readers to believe that everything the
President has done or may do as the Chief
Magistrate of the nation is influenced by q
covert and dishonorsble motive. The allu
sion to 'disreputsble adventures, coming
from such source, is laughable. II Jay
Gould, who, in the Tri6uBe's opinion, is
no doubt a reputable adventurer, should
learn that speculation in gold or anything
else was possible in the event of "a "foreign
war" that journal would instantly become
the advocate of it. The truth is, however
that no action which may result in foreign
war, either before or after the next Presi.
dental election, is contemplated. 1t is &C.
kuowledged, however, that the Cuban
Patriots have earned some title to recoen;.
lion by their persistent warfare against
Spanish tyranny, and that the interests Of
humanity, to say nothing Of commerce. re

its close they have sloughed off and returned
to their natural level. Their cool-headed
predictions and aspirations are, therefore,
to be taken at discount v hen the interests
of the Republican party are concerned, and
their gift to judge human nature is warped
in its practical effectIby an insurmountable
prejudice. So it is with Morrissey and his
prophecy that Governor Tilden, of New
York, will prove to be an invincible Demo-
cratic Presidential candidate. The wish,
in this case, is certainly the father to the
thought. Morrissey knows that he owns a
solid interest in Tilden; that his efforts to
secure the election of the last State Demo
cratic ticket in New York deserve recog-
milton; and that, in the event of Tilden's
further promotion, his influence will be
correspondingly increased. This is
the milk in the Honorable Johns
political cocoanut, but the juice
of it will soon be spilled, and the honor
able John, or the gifted George, as the case
may be, will then have an opportunity for
a lachrymal display. The people go deeper
into the consideration of the questions Of
the hour than Morrissey gives them credit
for, and with all his shrewdness he has
been misled, as we have said, by his per-
sonal wishes and his prejudices- For ex-
ample, they have discovered that Tilden
may be an honest man from Morrissey's
standpoint, but he lacks pluck to carry out
his boasted war against the corruptionists
of his State, and is therefore dishonest as
viewed from q more moral standpoint
They remember. too, that the basis of his
private fortune rests upon fraud, and that
his pretentions to solid legal success are Of
the most fragile character. But we can
afford to remember him in the future as the
Presidential candidate of John Morrissey,
gambler and ex-pupilist

SENATOR SARGENT, of California, is one
of the frmest friends of progress the Dis
trict has ever had When the Opposition
in that State attempted to make capital by
retailing exploded falsehoods about the
management of our affairs, he boldly and
honestly denied their charges, and told the
truth in q way that deserves the gratitude
of every good citizen in the community.
Notwithstanding this, the Sunday Herald
goes out of its way to assail him by false
innuendo, and, with sreckless disregard oi
truth, charges that he is a corrupt man.
We are afraid the Democratic zeal of ouI
cetemporary for once Igot the better of its
discretion.

WHKN the Republican party obtained
control of the Southern States, at the close
of the war, there were many things to be
done to repair the damages Of civil strife.
Public institutions of all kinds had gone to
decay, and there was general demand for
the outlay of money to re-estabIish their
efficiency. OF course, the Democratic
party, responsible for the war, was also
responsible for the necessity of this outlay;
but as the appropriations of money for it
were made by Republican Legislatures, the
Democrats now cry aloud that Radical
extravsgance has been the ruin of the
South.

an end to the rebellion on the island. The
Tribune cannot deny this proposition, and
it may sneer at the advocates of humane
interference as much as it pleases; the
necessity for it will exist just the same.
That it may be realized, and that speedily,
is no doubt the hope of every true-hearted
lover of republican government.

Shall We Change Our Cuban Policy !


1t is asserted in Washington, upon what is
usually considered good authority relative to
administration affairs, that at the secret ses-
sion of the Cabinet on Wednesday the ques-
tion of our relations with Cuba was seriously
discussed, and that q change in the policy of
the Government was decided upon. This
change, it is said, contemplates the recogni-
ton of the Cuban patriots as belligerents, q
course which the Uuited States has heretofore
abstained from. Sympathy for the people Of
Cuba, who are struggling to free themselves
from Spanish rule, is almest universal through
out the United States, and any measure which
will restore peace and prosperity to that un-
happy island is certain to be popular in
America

Now that Tammany has bounced"
John Morrissey and sent him out of the
wigwam with the brand of disapproval
on his pugilistic brow, it seems certain that
the fight between the two wings of the
New York city Democracy Will be con-
tinued. No honest man and reputable citi-
zen will regret this. 1t is under such cir
cumstances, when thieves fall out, that
honest men come by their own. But,
after all, it is probable that Morrissey is the
best of all the Democrats who are engaged
in this family wrangle. He is certainly a
gambler, but no one ever accused him of
cheating, and while he may be of bad
kind, he is probably the best of that kind
that ever won distinction as Democratic
