THE cENsuRE DELIVERED,

Of the resolution, and it having been read,

many Republican members were standing,
and the crowds in the galleries were

Mr.. Brown remained standing, with

and severe tone, administered the censure
of the house in the following terms:

The PaPal Succession.

LONDON, Feb. 5.-A Times despatch
from Rome says efforts have been made
in ecclesiastical circles to ascertaining
whether the Austrian government is in
clined to support Cardinal Rancher S
election to the paPaey, ont that the gov
eminent has declined to interfere, fearing
it would be htld responsible by Germany
for the policy of the new pope. 1t is
thought the Conservatives Of Austria
would favor the candidacy of Cardinal
Ranscher if they should succeed to
power.

to them, but nothing definite occurred
: for many years. Moulton and had been
mutual friends, and our affection for one

boyhood to the present time. After the
destruction Of my own home Moulton' s
house became my home, but I was there
great deal from the LIST Of January,

we were together very frequently. After
my difficulties there was no man in my
esteem who would be trusted more than

eessor of Sir Philip Sydney in all that is
high, noble and honorable.
VIEWS ON THE MARRIAGE RELATION.
The Brooklyn Eagle says Mr.. Tilton
created great deal of observation by
the mode he chose to illustrate the epochs
of his life. He said: Il embraced the
cause Of woman's suffrage before the war,
at the solicitation Of my wife, and under
convictions stirred by Beecher's sermons
in favor of the cause He again said :

HAVANA. Jan. 3l.-The local newspa-
per Of Sancti Expiriti in the Cineo, Villas
district, has the following report The
insurgents, commanded by. Geo.
moz and Sanguilj, attacked the
settlement of Jibara at o'clock the
morning of the Goth inst. The assault
was made at four points. Rebels attack.
ed Fort Macheti. The beseiged defended
themselves gallantly, but the enemy's
numbers were too great. The garrison
having exhausted its ammunition and been
reduced to ten effective men surrendered
to the insurgents. The latter respected
the lives Of those who surrendered. The
fort and its contents were destroyed and
many houses we're burned. Our losses
are considerable in proportion to the
numbers engaged, but we are without de-
tails.
An eye witness says losses of the rebels
were heavier. This we believe. consider
ing the pertinacity of the attack and the
obstinacy of the defense.
When the news became known here,
troops were Immediately sent out to pick.
up the wounded and reconstruct the de-
fences and buildings of the town.

commence long before the husband is ap.
prised of his own dishonor. It comes in
alienated love, inevitable discord and con-
tention. It comes, at last, in clear reve.
lation, to the distracted heart of the
husband, of his wife's seduction and dis
honor : and whatever may be said by.
Tilton upon that stand will not add one
jot or title to the agony, shame, or re-
morse of that wife.
NOTsAFTER GOLD, BUT JUSTICE.
s'But my client is represented as trad
ing on the reputation and honor of his
wife in greedy chase after the gold Of
this defendant. Why, sir, did not coun-
sci know better? If not, his associates
and your honor know better. How long
ago is it, in this case, that before your
honor proffer was made to abandon the
action for damages if my learned friends
would but press forward their action for
libel against this plaintiff, for asserting
the adultery of defendant! Theodore
TiltOn seeks no money. He would not
stain and burn his palm with defendant s
gold; but he seeks vindication.
THE SIN OF THIS DEFENDANT
has followed him with destructive efica-
cy. This defendant has gathered around
him the comments and condemnation of
society. His fortunes have been pros.
trated by the consequences which follow
in the path of guilt, and especially of this
sin, and which have chung to him as with
iron tenacity. Is there no reLress for

THE DUTY or TIE REPTBLICIN con
TTNJTDN


The canvass in this State promises to he
peculiar. There is no division of parties on
the currency line. Both of them are fully
committed to honest money, and Ncw-lOrk Is
solid AGAINST imitation. The issue in this State
will be largely peculiar TO itself and yet pos
sessed of national Importance. 1t will he IA
square fight between the honest men and
the thieves. 1t is the duty of both the Re-
publican and Democratic Conventions to
pledge the masses whom they represent to
the support of the crusade against the
canal thieves. 1t is equally the dnty of
both, but it is rather the necessity,
if not the opportunity, of the first.
Not only because the Democratic party is
pledged in advance by the terms of the call
issued by the state Committee, bat because
the Republican party, through the dis
ingenious and foolish opposition of some of
its organs rests under suspicion OF being in at
least tacit alliance with the Ring. Every ex-
pedent by which this movement for genuine
and permanent reform could he hampered and
brought into contempt has been employed to
the full by these shifty journalists. More than
this, it is the general expectation that the
more desperate of the thieves who have hth-
erto used the Democratic party for their nefa-
rious purposes will now give their votes and
their influence to the Republicans, in
the hope that Gov. Tden's prestige in his
own party may he destroyed by defeat. The
suspicion that both sides may be ready for
such an alliance is justified at least by various
votes in the Legislature last Winter. the last
and most conspicuous of which was the defeat
of the Absolute Removal bill in the Assembly
by the solid vote of the Republicans, aided by
purchasable Democrats and Democrats who
were recognized members of the Canal Ring.
To frustrate whatever political ambitions
Gov. Tiden may cherish is an entirely legiii-
mate work for his opponents, if ii is done by
legitimate means, but they cannot afford to
accomplish it by the aid Of thieves. This is
not question of Presidential aspirations, or
of politics at all. The thieves belong to both
parties, and there have been times when both
parties seemed to belong to them. 1t il IA
straight and clean an issue between honesty
and fraud as was ever made. Tho charges
have been grave and explicit; the proof,
as furnished by the most thorough
investigation that has been seen in
American politics since Tammany was over
thrown by its bank books, is complete and
overwhelming. In controversy of this kind
there is only one side for the honest voter to
stand on. Both parties should he found there,
and that party which makes this party issue
will get rout for its pains. The Republican
Convention cannot avoid placing itself on
record. Silence will mean sympathy with the
thieves. The honest voters of all opinions
will lock to it for an OutspOken declaration in
behalf of canal reform Can the Republican
party, by adopting any other course, afford to
take its stand by the side of a Ring older than
Tammany and no less corrupt!

people are beginning to understand why the
Prince of Wales is going to India, and that
the object which we suggested is the true mo-

elephant instead of pigeon, and still less any

give to his education the liberal consummation
