Is 1T WISE ,

Is there no capacity for good yet remain
ing in the republican party? Is there
nothing left for 1t to do, except to step
down and out Are we willing, will we
sit supinely by and see its sceptre of power
depart =? Ought the democratic party TO
be entrusted with supreme power Dare
we 30 trust it Z? Shall we remit the gov
eminent to the Eatons, the Cockrells, the
Woods and other impracticables Well
may thoughtful republicans ponder over
these questions. They can be answered
only in one way. That answer will be that
the republican party must have new lease
of power that it would be nnwise and I'M
safe to trust the democratic party. 1t is
all very well so to answer, but the mere
answer will not assure the desired result.
The party must remember that there is not
very much to choose between the Buffers,
the Chambers, the Kelloggs, the Claytons,
the Kings on the one hand, and the Woods,
the Eatons, the McEnerys,t the Cockrells, the
Schumakers on other the hand. OF the two
classes, they know not which most to fear.
Perhaps their disgust at the endorsement
and nomination of such men as Ben But
Ter will not lead them to vote for the other
class of men, but, certain it is, they will
not support the former. In contest mar
rowed down between such leaders, the
stay-a-way vote, or the scattering vote, will
enure to the benefit of the opposition. Is
it wise to again place the opportunity be-
fore the democracy?
Bad nominations may be, have been, car
ried to that extent, that honest thoughtful
republicans have felt it incumbent upon
themselves, as a choice of evils. to give an
open support to the opposition candidates
So strong was the necessity for rebuke
felt, that very slight shade of difference
between candidates turned the scale, last
fall, against the republican party Even
30 good republican as Judge Hoar advises
his party friends to vote for democrat
rather than an unfit nominee of the iepub-
lican party, and, even, goes so far as TO
openly boast that he 80 voted in November.
The judge Is right, and he is but II repre-
sentative of a large number of thoughtful,
intelligent, honest republicans. They care
not for place, they are not seekers of office,
but they are men of pronounced convic-
lions, of well grounded principles They
are the very essence Of the republican
party and, seeing greater capacity for
usefulness, less danger to the country, in
the elevation of honest democrats than in
dishonest republicans, they act and vote
accordingly. These men can and will turn
the scale. If they do 1t not actively, they
will passively. They do not, by such a
course. cease to DO good republicans nor
become democrats-they show, by their
very devotion to protested principle
honest men to rule, retrenchment and re-
form-that they are all the better republi-
cans than their fellows. Is II wise to make

Our fellow citizens will doubtless re-

five o'clock in the afternoon of the last
Wednesday in April and would it not,
also, be well, when voting for a municipal

According to the adage ga little learning
is dangerous thing, and "too much learn
ing" as Festus told Paul, makes one
"mad," but both scripture and legend are
silent relative to the danger to be feared
from little ignorance or the maddening
power of much of it. Its effect, however,
was seen in Rutland yesterday. Ignorance
of law smashed many a small ward politi-
clans slate, yesterday, and numerous aspi-
rants were made mad thereby. Oh, wasn't

yesterday. The ballot box had the start,
but the burning of small hundred and fifty

are to have "life tenure of office" in Rut-

4 RIDE WITH A MADMAN.

The New York Herald Of the oath inst.
relates the following incident Mr.. viii.
liam Fouh,. of Hoboken, while driving
through New Durham. on Sunday even
ing. was accosted on the road by a
sprightly.looking man abont thirty years
Of age, we'll dressed and of some culture,
who declared he was fatigued and sadly
in need of a ride. The driver repealed
him at first, but the stranger renewed
his application with such honeyed words
that Mr.. Fouh took him up. The con-
duct of the lunatic who accompanied
Hood in the balloon was gentle compared
with that of this stranger. He began by
twisting his face into variety of co,.vo-
lutions; then his eyes glared as if with
rage or torture; he stared menacingly
at the driver, and made a pow.
erful effort to snatch the reins. Mr..
Fouh affected not to notice this much,
and drew up the horse. He coaxed his
dangerous companion to aIight and ad.
just the bit in the animals mouth. The
lunatic jumped out, and then Fouh piled
his whip with fury. The horse few away,
and the driver was blessing his stars, but
on looking behind him, to his horror he
saw a man clinging to the vehicle and
leaning over him, with huge knife fash
ing in his hand. Fouh seized his whip
and dealt him heavy blow OH the head,
telling him to the road. The horse still
rushed on, and the mailman rose and fol-
lowed closely for some time, when his
strength failed him and he was lost sight
of. The maniac is probably an escaped
convict or person whose insanity is of
recent date.

The Montreal Cemetery Trouble.

The trouble growing Out Of the attempt
to inter the remains of Guibord in conse.
Grated ground, has not yet been settled,
The remains being in a Protestant ceme~
,ery,where they are protected by guard.
Bishop Bou get Of the diocese, in letter
on the subject, says that had Guibord's
body been buried in the cemetery, in de-
fiance of the church, the place where it
lay should be Immediately interdicted
and looked upon henceforth as an accurs-
ed spot. to be held in execration. If
fresh efforts be made to introduce the
body into consecrated ground, he requests
all Catholics to remain quiet, like true
children of Christ and loyal subjects Of
her majesty the queen. He invites every
one to sign a petition to the queen, beg
gins her majesty 70 enjoin that the rights
possessed by the Catholics of this city
are not to b. denied, and that they are
not to BE- mole>ted in the exercise of their
holy faith, but to be respected by all
tho~e whom Providence has called to
share the royal authority.

A PALACE OF SILENCE.

Away up OH the hill that overlooks
Naples stands the Carthusian monastery
Of San Marsino. The monks who once
inhabited the glorious palace-for it
is nothing less-were men of noble
birth and vast fortune. The church is
now one Of the most magnificent in Italy.
Agate, jasper, lap:s-,azuli, amethyst,
Egyptian granite, an l fossil wood, togeth-
Ell with marbles of every tint, are so blend
ed in mosaics that line the whole cdifice,
and the carvings are SO rich and graceful
seem like Eden bowers transferred by
miracle and frozen into stone. and in
this spot lived a brotherhood who came
from the first circles Of society, and bur-
ried themselves in the gorgeous tomb, for
it was little else, The monks took vow
of perpetual silence, lived apart, ate apart,
and met only for the unsocial hours of
prayer, when each was wrapped in his
meditation, and no one utterei syllable.
Each one Of the little cells where thew
slept had a small window or closet COM
manicating with one of the corridors, and
in this closet is placed frugal meal,
which was then taken into the cell, and
eaten in solitude. Every quarter of an
hour the bell struck to remind the lis.
teners that they were so much nearer
their death. In the gardens the ratings
are ornamented with marble skulls, and
the only sounds that used to disturb this
SPLENDID solitude we're the tread of san
daled feet, the rustic Of long, white robes,
or the clang of the bell that told of their
solumn lives, in brief moments, and vet
might have seemed long to them. These
monks like most others in Italy, have
beed driven from their retreat, and all
their treasures con6scated by Victor
Emmanuel.

Attention, Grangers Il Co.
49, SHAKoPEE, Sept. 8, 1875.
Editor St. Paul Dispatch:

Editor St. Paul Dispatch:
Would it not be good idea to call the
attention of your granger friends, railroad
companies, town supervisors, and the pub
lie generally, through your paper, to the
"Act to prevent the growth and spread
of Canada Thistles,'' passed Feb. 10Th,
1872, and found in the volume of general
laws of 1872, page 81?
That act declares the weed known as
Canada Thistle to be common nuisance,
and that any one allowing the weed to 20
to seed On any land which he owns or has
control of, to be guilty of maintaining
and supporting common nuisance, and
prescrlbes tine not exceeding fifty nor
less than five dollars as the punishment
due to the offender.
1t also requires the town supervisors or
other persons having control of the pub
nc highways. &C., to destroy the thistles,
II the owners or occupants of the lands
fail to do so, paying therefor at the same
rate as is paid for road labor, and charg.
ing the amount to the owner of the land
or to the town If it cannot be collected of
he owner.
Our State has not as yet been troubled
much with that scourgc of some parts of
our country. but if our farmers and 9th.
ers interested, and the officer whose duty
it is made BY law toiattend to the matter,
are not prompt and thorough in their
efforts to exterminate the pest, it will
not be many years before we can fully
sympathize with our, at present, more
unfortunate Eastern friends.
The thistles are now in blossom, and
very easily found, and if efforts were
made to enforce the law they could be
kept in check.
noticed day or two ago that there
| we're large nur her Of th:stles growing
along the lines of the H. & D. railroad,
between this place and Chaska, and along
the NJ. & St. L. road between Chaska and
Minneapolis. The officers of those roads

he asked mournfully, touching his stom-
ach and his finger alternatively. His
marvellous simplicity extended to every
affair of life. He, who made many rich,
was poor himself. His books brought
him very little; the tiny pension allowed
him by the State and his free stall at the
theatre was all his wealth. But he never
thought of money, in that, too, he had
all child perfect trustfulness. Some
spirited attempts were made to marry him;
one, in particular, by handsome peasant
girl, who wrote him love.letter and took

urged her cause in words: II would be

he replied "but, my good girl, I don t

passion, he used to say, once, and it was

affinity existed between him and the
flower world. He would handle flowers,
