TIE "Of" Months for Outra1es.

The periodicity or the Southern ''out-
rage" business is as wei fixed as that OF
any event in the Radical political calender.
1t comes Whenever there is an important
election 10 be held at the North. We call
attention To the present extraordinary quiet
ness of the Southern country as contrasted
with is fearful turbulence when the Ad-
IDlnistTation was striving to carry OHIO,
PENNSYLVANIA and NEW YORK last au-
tumu. In this business as in others, the
eternal law of supply and demand controls.
The Republican politicians and newspapers
wanted .-ourrages" wherewith to fire the
Northern heart, and 10 they were supplied
by the AttOrney-General smoking hot out
Of his little Tnill, though It must be con-
feSsed that IS kindleis Of fires they were
failures. When the demand ceased on the
day Of election in November the supply
suddenly stopped. and the country has not
heard of an outrage In tine South since
that time. Curious isn't il? There was
an organ of the Administration published
in this city before the elections, called tue
Repu5!ic, whose first page bristled all over
with startling headlines, conveying intelli-
gence of the slaughter Of carTet-b baggcrs
and coloTed persons from the Potomac %
the Rio Grande. The organ died Of sur
felt of horrors, and it may have been no
tIced since Its death that the sacrifice of
the truly loyal voter in the South has not
been chronicled in the Republican news
papeIs which have survived. Readers were
assured before the November elections.
and the assurance was even repeated dur
ing the late CoSNECTTCUT campaign. that
If the Democrats were successful carnage
would run riot in the South, and il would
not be safe for any man within its boz ders
70 avOw himself TO be q Republican. The
absence of disorder of any kind in the
South during the past five mon tiIs has been
conspicuous There has been more vio-
Ience in one little town in the mining re-
gions OF the Northern State of PE~SsYT-
yA9,IA since November than there has been
in the whole fifteen Southern States. -
There has been more resistance 10 the au-
thorities Cf the United States I'm the in
teusely Republican city o. Providence. l..
J., II one day, than there has been I'D the
whole five months since November in the
Intensely ''disloyaf' Southern city of Ne.g
Orleans. 1t IS needless to multiply exam
pies Of Republican promise and anti-3e-
publican performance. Now that the cleo
tiOiIs are over for 4 season we ask the read
er to observe the remarkable discrepancy.
and also to note our p.oguosticatiOn that
the ''OutraGes' viii break out again abour
the time that the canvass begins t. get
warm ~ OHI-, towards the close of next
summer Then viii the loyal carpet bag
ger resume his. flight to the North chased
by the bloOdhounds OF the uurecoDstructed,
and the int:m!dated black man weller once
more in his own gore. 1t is true that this
thrilling news has lost its potency upon the
Northern mind, but an old dog Cannot learn
new tricks, and the Republican newspapers
viii set NJ that same old Lowi from sheer
force Of habit.-N. y. H0rld

SPELLING March IN WELsH---They
have had a spelling match in Welsh
church in Cincinnati. y paper of that city
says of the affair:
''As the words were high old Welsh, and
the conversation was carried on i'm Welsh,
our reporter couldn't very well catch the
drift of things. 1t is difficult matter to
get into the meaning and spirit Of Welsh
meeting unless one understands the Ian
guage. But the gentlemen stood up aud
spelled a large number of big, crooked
words with fiuency and correctness-at least
it is presumed tEey did. However, they
