Robson RESIGNATION. - Since
the House Of Representatives has cut
down the appropriations for the nav,
some eight millions of dollars, and
put a curb-bit in the mouth of the
Secretary and his jobbiug confede
rates, it would seem to be in order
for Secor Robson to resign, especI
ally as there is an impeachment
hanging over his head. But he is
not naturally resigning man, and
the rumors from Washington that he
had signitied such a desire to Grant
are yet to be verified. In office, he is
necessarily part Of the great ma
chine of government, and therefore
counts for something Out Of office
he would return to obscurlty, and be
a mere cipher socially and politically
Nothing but the dread of a co,,vic-
ton would drive him into voluntary
retirement, and on that subject he
has no great cause for alarm, after
the action in Belknap's case.
The Senate is organized to acqni1
all Republican rogues, no matter
what may be the proofs of their guilt
The stronger the evidence, the more
certain the acquittal. Belknap con
tessed his rascality in office, and YET
he escaped, though he resigned while
the committee was actually trying
his case. The President did what
he could to help him by collusioH.-
Upon this miserable pretense, TWEEN
ty-four Republican Senators pro
uounced him not guilty.-[N. \. Sun

"A Republican paper says the
hard times makeit hard for its party
to get up campaign steam. No
doubt Of it. And why shouldn't
this be the effect? Don't the people

HIGH HASH TALK.-A dialogue
occurred at a Lafayette avenue
boarding house Saturday afternoon
between an effelninate, shabbily
dressed young man and the landlady
which ponderous rhetoric exceeds
anything of a similar nature that has
seen the light in some time. The
landlady appeared at the front door
in answer to the bell, and was accos-
ted by the young man as follows:
eff you are the manager of this
domicile, I wish to know if you could
be persuaded to provide me with
apartments and proyender during my
sojourn in this city, which may be
Of two or three days duration, and
may possibly extend through great
err period" aoH
The mistress of the house, catch
| ing the style and spirit Of the inqui.
; rer, responded
unfortunately a great demand
exists at present, which SO crowds
the capacity of my apartments and
the contents Of my larder that l can
not conscientlously provide the ac-
commodations You desire"
/ Evidently the young man had ex-
pected to completely crush the land
lady with his command of the Eng
fish language, but his disappoint-
ment was plainly shown in the look
Of blank amazement which he be-
towed upon her after hearing her re-
ply. He was not completely annili-
/ lated, however, for he continued:
provided you could, madam, what
amount of money would you impose
upon me for accommodating me?"
: Slight dollars a week in advance"
was too suggestive, and as the young
man backed down the steps he SIM

REFORM FROM THE OUTSIDE RENE
DE. W hat nonsense it is to suppose
that the Republican party is reform
ing itself 'sfrom the inside when
they have only put up new figure
heads. The leaders are Chandler,
Logan, Carpenter, Orth, etc. They
have nothing to fear by the election
of Hayes. His do-nothing record in
Congress assures tLem of that. Bah.
cock can get up another Whisky
Ring, Belknap can instruct the new
Secretary how to farm out Indian
agencies. and Secor Robson car
make more contracts without fear o
molestation. Reform from the in
sides indeed! The men who could re
form che party from the inside hav'
been kicked out. The very atmos
phere of Reform is sitting to Grant
ties and Republican leaders.

were greeted by savage yells from
the direction Of the camp. mingled
with the death groans of his COM
'panions. Mounting hill that COM
manded q view Of the camp, which
was located in a ravine, his eyes
were greeted with the sight Of innu-
merable savages dancing around tue
scalps of his former companions.
Thus finding that the situation
was somewhat dangerous, Mr.. Ran
dolph craw'ed into the hollow trunk
ola. tree, and there remained until
morning. when he went back to the
place where Che camp had been.
Upon arriving at this place ghast
1y sight met his view. In the still
and hushed morning twilight lay the
bodies of his companions, stark
naked, scalped and otherwise mutila-
ted, testifying to the cruelty of. the
Black Hills savages. After burying
the bodies of his companions he
made his way to the railroad, having
nothing left, everything being de-
stroyed by the savages. Nj. Ran
dolph expresses, his intention Of
returning to the Hills some time in
the future, when there is not so
much danger of losing two months
work and his scalp in the bargain.
