Harper's Weekly speaks of the conduct of
the Republican Presidential candidate dur
ing the canvass, as follows:
1.-The attitude Of Governor Hayes from
the day OF his nomination has commended
him most warmly to the respect and con-
fidence OF the whole country. There
has been manly simplicity in his
bearing, and in the words spoken
by him when he was apparently defeate
such manly good sense that, should it
happily prove chat he is elected, his total
freedom from the arts and uncommon snx.
lety of MI old party politician will be re-
freshing aud encouraging to his fellow
citizens. He has been true representa-
tive of the good old cause-pure. honora-
bio, eagacious, self-respecung, and self
restrained; true type of the best American
citizen an American gentleman without
fear and without reproach."

WUp SALT river .

The origin of the expression, "up Salt
River" as applied to defeated political
party, was as follows
Davy Crockett, the famous Kentucky
Congressman, while Wing candidate, was
challenged BY his Democratic opponent to
meet him on the stump in joint discussion.
Crockett accepted, and the day and place
we're fixed, but Crockett did not appear, and
the people thinking him afraid to do 80 raj
led for his opponent and elected him. 1t
afterwards turned ont that Crockett, who
had started for the place in a canoe pro-
PEELED by negro, had been landed in the
forest at the head Gators Of Salt River by
hie treaoherous guide, who then swiftly
padded off down the stream. Crockett was
100 good hunter to starve in che wilder
ntss, but he was totally unable to reach
the appointed place in time, and gave it up
and with it his chance of election. Hence
rhe phrase Up Salt River'-meaning tina
p lrty is hopelessly defeated. Crockett, how
over. was more LUCKY Two years afterwards
being elected by handsome majority.

THE PROSPECT UF EUROPEAN WAR.


The European situation remains Un-
changed, within 4 Cay or two, but tile pros
pect of wa seems very serious. 1t now
appears that Russia means war. The Pail
Mall Gazette, of London, in leading edi-
torial, last egening, takes the view that
pared 60 insiet upon claims which sho be-
ieves the pogte will refuse, and is getting
ready to impose them by force.
Meanwhile, preparations are making, in
England, for the contingency of war. The
dispatches by cable, yesterday, are all of
this tenor 1t is announced that twenty
one battalions of infantry, seven regiments
OF cavalry, and eighty guns have already
been divided off as the first British force
for the East. Soldiers on furlough in Ire
land have been ordered to rejoin their re-
giments; great tactivity is shown in the Wool
wich arsenal, the manufacture Of cartridges
being increased from half million to two
million cartridges week; and at the De-
vonport dock yards, the two great iron clad
turret shipsl CyclopS and Rydrd are being
prepared for active service.
ALI this certainly looks like the beginning
Of war. Il may mean nothing but show.
The men that march up the hill may march
down again. But if the purpose OF Russia
is, asst appears to be, to force conflict,
then she will undoubtedly accomplish that
object, and it seems likely that she will be
met in the field by Turkey, Austria, and
England.

Ex-Governor Noyes, Of Ohio, according
to the Cincinnati Commercials special from
New orlesns, states that he has authority
for saying that Governor Hayes does not
intend to permit any unfalrness, and rather
thango into office under the slightest sus-
picion Of wrong, he will publicly decline to
go in at all. We have no doubt that Gov
ernor Hayes has just such a programme ;
his whole course has been consistent with
it. While Tilden labored for his own cleo
tion like a man pushing"a new patent
medicine, Hayes behaved like an American
statesman should. 1t is less creditable to
to the American people that between two
such men, they did not choose Hayes by an
overwhelming majority.

Paris has a grave difficulty to solve, what
60 with her dead2 For ten years has this
subject been under consideration, and Bar
on Haussman complained that the dead
gave him far more trouble than the living.
Probably it is not generally known that in
manyparte of Continental Europe, especial
ly France and Switzerland, the bodies of the
dead do not remain inferred beyond linn
LED tine. After few years, the grave
marks are oblitersted, aid the ground is
used for new burials.
