For THE LAST TrME.-There is a touch
OF pathos about doing even the simplest
thing "ior the last time" It is not alone
kissing the dead that gives US this strange
pain. You feel 1t when you have looked
your last time upon some scene you have
loved-whon you stand in some quiet
city street where you know that you will
never stand again. The actor playing
his part FOR the last time, the singer
whose voice Is cracked hopelessly, and
who after this once will never stand
before the sea OF upturned faces dis
putting the plaudits with fresher voices
and lairer forms, the minister who
has preached his last sermon-these all
know the hidden bitterness Of the two
words "neyer again." How they come 10
US on our birthdays as we grow older
Never again young; always nearer and
nearer to the very last-the end which .
universal, "the last thing which shall fol-
low all last things, and turn them, let Us
hope, from pains to Joys. We pat away
our boyish toys with an odd heartache.
We were too old to walk any longer oh
our stills too tall to play marbles on
the sidewalk. Yet there was . paug
when we thought we had played with
our merry thoughts for the last time,
and life's serious, grown.up work was
waiting for us. Now we do not want the
lost toys back. Life has other and larger
playthings for rs. May itnot be that
these too shall seem In the light OF some
far-oa'days as the boyish games seem to
our manhood, and We shall learn that
death Is but the opening Of the gate into
the new land Of promise9

ropean question have foundered against
the quiet resistance Of tho Italian Gov.
eminent. The first and last word OF the
Italians to the Pope is, "You shall not
injure Italy. You shall not break il up
again into petty principalities, neither
shall you yourself be tho temporal ruler
Of Italian freemen. For the rest you
may do what you like, and we will pro:
vide you with the means Of doing It."
Does not this reception Of the Spanish
pilgrims prove Incontestably that Italy
Is sincere in these declarations, and
that for the Pope to attitudinize as a
"priSoner" is manifest farce, utterly
unworthy Of the dignity Of .potentate
who exercises such vast authority 1t is
in vain for Cardinal Manning to por-
tray the world as given over to evcry III,
in consequence Of the disappearance OF
the Papal Grow, and to alege that the
influence OF Kings Ia shaken because the
"highest Of Kings" has been dispos,essed.
There is plenty Of scandal in the political
world still, but at any rate we no longer
have the scandal OF Papal rule in Rome
and the adjoining territories. All this
talk about imprisonment Is an impudent
pose; and ii Is time 1t should cease We
the great influence still e1erted
BY the Papacy; and we perceive that it
has been augmented rather than dimin.
Ished by the abolition Of the temporal
power. But we always acknowledged
that this would be go. The temporal
power was not abolished for the purpose
,ither OF diminishing or extending the
spiritual sway OF tho Pope. 1t was abol-
shed because il was a scandal, nuts
lnce, and peril. That the Pope Is no
real sufferer by its abolition was shown
n Saint Peters on Monday.

True statesman.hip.

The speech of Mr. Lamar deserves to ba
remembered in the history of qualification.
Mr.. Lamar has shown, ever since his access
sion to public life, high degree of states
manship He cane from the South and from
the Confederate army. He represented the
extreme sentiment of devotion to the South.
But, like most Of the Southern men
who fought for the lost cause, he has la
bored since the surrender 70 secure peace.
In his recent speech Mr. Lamar does
not spare the administration for its
shortcomings in the South. While he
exaggerates this on the one. side, and on the
other the desire Of the old Southern men
for the Union, he at the same time aims to
lead his people into the high grounds OF
fraternity and peace. That is great deal.
If Mr.. Lamars counsels are followed the re-
suit will be q reconciliation of the sections,
the elimination of the color line from poll.
tics, the disbanding of the republican and
democratic parties as at present constituted,
and the formation of new parties. The re-
publican party will dissolve as soon as there
are no more war issues in politics. That
will come when the Southern people show
the spirit of Lamar.

for very long period arranged themselves.
There may be sound and sufficient reasons
for doing this, but they must be conclusively
shown before We are bound to act.
A single standard may be the most con-
venent but if silver has not absolutely and
permanently lost its place by the side of
gold its convenience may be too dearly
bought by the greater and graver incon-
venience of general arrangement of prices
which may follow upon the act of abolishing
the use of what has from time immemorial
formed large and important part of the
worlds measure of prices. If it has per-
manently lost its place we cannot legislate
it back to its old position, and we shall have
to submit TO whatever Inconvenience may
follow. When government commission is
able, by exhaustive research and examination
of the whole question, to settle this point,
the rest will be comparatively easy. We
fling out these suggestions to show the great
importance Of the proposed commission
and the necessity for cool survey of the
silver question before we act upon it for
what we do the rest of the world will soon
fellow us in.

Tho Republicans and tho Governor
shin.

What is the use of talking about Judge
gan. as the republican candidate for Cover.
nor? Why trot out horses who cannot make
a first rate run, and who if they do will,
after all, mean nothing? New York is the
centre of the political line. Whichever
party carries it carries the Presidency. The
republicans cannot afford to run any risks;
they need to put their best foot, or their best
man, foremost We have already suggested
to them the name of Mr.. Evarts but the
reply in some quarters is that Mr.. Conkling
will not be pleased at the nomination of Mr..
Evarts.
Very we'll; then nominate Mr.. Conkling.
That is the way to settle that difficulty. Let
it be understood that these two, Conkling
and Eyarts, are the candidates before the
Convention ; let the friends of each make
hearty struggle in the Convention but let
the minor, the subsidiary, the meaningless
candidates stand aside. That is the true
way to settle this matter, and then which,
ever Of the two gets the nomination, it will
not be said, at least, that second rate man
was put into first rate place.
For, let it not be forgotten that the Gov.
ernorship of New York this time is first
rate place. Whoever gets it is in the direct
line for the next Presidency. The Governor
to be chosen this fall will hold office for
three years; he will leave Office, that is to
say, on the eve of the next Presidential nom.
nations. If he is really great man no one
will have SO conspicuous chance for the
nomination as he. Hence it is o place, on
that as well as other accounts, worthy of the
highest ambition. Mr.. Conkling could not
and probably would not refuse it. Mr..
Evarts would not. AS for New York, either
of them would make her o great Governor.
1t is good time to set aside mediocrities
and bring forward great men, and there is
no place in the country where they are more
needed than in New York Conkling OF
Evarts, which shall it be?

The bill granting pension to the widow
of General Custer and his aged parents is
still before the Senate. This bill gave Mrs.
Custer fifty dollars month and the parents
a hundred dollars month. A "Confeder-
ate House passed this BILL but republican
Senate proposes to cut down the pension to
the widow to thirty dollars n month and to
limit that to the parents to the life of the
mother. Probably no more humiliating
proposition ever went before the Senate.
The parents of Custer lost three sons.
son-in-law and grand nephew in this
action. A blow so terrible has rarely fallen
upon household. 1t was natural that the
House should think Of this in awarding its
pensions, and we do not envy the feelings
which prompted Senator Ingalls, and the
Committee on Pensions to cut it down. We
are now afraid that the bill, small as it is,
will not pass. The Senate is near the end
of the session. AS is always the case at the
end of session there are hundred jobs
ready to rush through. The iobbers block
the way to all useful legislation. A small
matter like the Custer pension is apt to be
lost. Who cares for the widow and the child
less; who cares for the mourning widow,
father and mother, when Indian rings and
railway rings are to be served? Unless two
or three resolute Senators, like Morton,
Bayard and Conkling, take hold of this bill
and push it through it will fail. We trust
that the leaders of the Senate, without re-
gard to party, will take up the Custer bill,
restore the House provisions and pass it.
The whole thing can be done in the morning
hour Let us show the world that Repub-
lie can do q handsome thing. The sum voted
by the House is small enough. Do not let
the Senate cut it down.

We printed yesterday the following letter
from the New York Times, and reprint it to-
day that our readers may study it care

'''''' "A HENDRICKS.
Our impression was that the letter was
forgery. We directed our correspondents in
Washington to inquire and as they could
not find the person to whom it was adj
dressed they reported that it was a forgery
We then directed our Saratoga correspond
emit to make the inquiry as to its genuine
ness. MIR. Hendricks, who is manly and
prompt in his opinions as will be seen in
our despatch from Saratoga, avows that the
letter is genuine.
We now learn that at n time when Gov
ernor Tilden was trying to rally the honest
people OF the country upon the platform of
reform and honest money Governor Hen
bricks was striving to break down the Re-
sumption act. This act is the solemn pledge
of Congress to pay its obligations at GER
tain time. To repeal that act is to intimate
that we are in the habi. of making promises
only TO break them. The repeal would Of
fend the honest sentiment of the nation,
but it would crafty some soft money
lunatics in Indiana and help to elect
Congressman like Landers and Voorhees, to
the House. II shows that Governor Hen
bricks is not loyal to his ticket; that he
means to press his views, whether Tilden
likes them or not; that he went into this
canvass as candidate for the Presidency;
that he means to be SO in fact if not in
name.
We do not see how Governor Hendricks
can remain on the ticket. He is not wanted.
His course has been mutinous to the last de-
gree. Governor Tilden should compel his
withdrawal and give us candidate like
Thurman. He should then take command of
! his canvass.

THE CONDITION OF TURKEY, as it is por-
.rayed in the special despatch to the HERALD
this morning, is most deplorable. The out
RACES of the Turkish volunteers have pro-
voked threats of foreign Intervention, while
the internal afflirs of the Empire are more
than ever unsettled. Abdul Ahmed will not
accept thcthrone unless it is shown that the
Sultans malady is incurable. and, on the
other hand, his suggestion of regency has
not yet been acceded to. Thus it will be
seen the Empire Is threatened with over
throw from without and within. This con-
ai;ion Of things cannot last long and it will
co: be surprising if the great Powers before
long determine upon and dictate the terms

a TELEGRAPH POLE at the corner of Grand
and Suffolk streets fell yesterday, killing
woman who was passing. An examination
revealed the fact that the pole was old and
rotten and had been unsafe for long time.
Such negligence on the part of the company
is without excuse. 1t is bad enough that the
city is filled with these unsightly things
even when they are safe, but when they en-
danger human life they become unendurble.
