A DEAD CONSPIRACY.

A New York Herald reporter inter
viewed Hon. Fernando Wood at Sara
toga, not long since, when the follow
ing language was used
"You. believe, then, Mr.. Wood, that
the Republican party is doomed to re
tire from power at the close of Presi
dent Grants term of office ?" was the
question suggested by the last re-
marks.
Fernando Wood-I believe Repub-
licanism is dead and gone with the
temporary causes that called it into
existence. l do not regard it as ever
having been entitled to the name of q
party. The Democratic party is .
portion Of the history, / may say OF
tho institutions of the nation. Its mis-
sion has been and will continue TO be
the preservation of government Of
the people, IL has existed in times of
prosperity and in times of misfortune,
in sunshine and in storm, through
good report and evil report, and has
survived TO sec its cphemeral. oppo-
nents one by one pass out Of existence
and almost out Of memory. In the
rebellion VIC were all rebels, it was
said. Yet we will still live to guard
the constitution, TO shield the lite of
the republic, TO crush out treason and
corruption, which, If left unchecked,
must sap the foundations of free gov
ernment. Republicanism, repeat,
never attained the diguity Of a party.
II was conspiracy-tbe conspiracy
of few men who found followers in
fanatics blind enough to believe in
their sincerity and in guerillas who
looked to success as the gateway to
license and plunder. The war gave
II the opportunity TO rob at its win, to
enrich its followers and to outrage lib.
erty 1t suddenly found its power un-
and almost uiquvetivned and
its patronage increased to proportions
never dreamed of in our former histo-
ry. While these things lasted, the
conspiracy lived and hourisbed and
the mob that followed it ran riot in
the States. When the elements that
produced it disappeared, Republican.
ism evaporated. II found nothing to
feed on. 1t had no war no plunder,|
no more offices TO fill, no more con-
tracts to bestow, and it died. 1t can
no longer raise even the bugbear Of
the Ku Klux to frightcn the timid and
drive back the advancing force of a
party. To talk about
Grant saving Republicanism, or Blaine
or Con!,ling saving it, is all nonsense,
for there is no Republicanism to save.

ANOTHER OvERBoARD.-Thc blessed
times are working wonders. The
chief business Of us newspaper men Is
TO record failure after failure. The
last is that Of VIM. Dillworth, an cx-
tensive lumber dealer in Pittsburgh
His liabilities are put down at $500,
900. The stereotyped falsehood thai
he will meet all claims in due season
is put forth as in other cases. This
may be some comfort TO those who
hold Mr.. Dillworth's notes, but Il will
be something new these times if even
they realize 25 per cent. on their
claims. The Mahoning and Sandy
Lick lumbcrmcn had great confidence
in Mr.. Dillworth's ability to come out
of the panic, and they will therefore
suffer largely by his failure. When
will this commercial epidemic cease
and business resume its usual sway
