American people can encourage such
an outrage. We are glad to notice
that Mr.. Cochrane pledges himself not
to vote for such bills; but, unfortu-
nately for him, while this shows the
right character of his personal feelings
on the subject, it furnishes no argu.
ment for his election. Both he and
Mr.. Hopkins will act generally with
their party, and did their votes give
1t power, they would also give it the
organization Of The House. Once il
had this much, it could dispense with
their direct aid in the other particular.
1t would have committees that would
arrange all those claims, and prepare
them for passage. Our only safety is
to keep the Democracy from power.
Their policy has been, and will be, to
follow out the line already marked.
This done, and all that is vicious and
bad, Southern outrages, and the char
acteristic purpose of the rebels to sad
die upon the North their war losses,
will be realized. The Republican
party has proven itself the party of
Reform by openly permitting the dis
cussion, within its ranks, of all practi-
cal measures of Reform. 1t tried the
Civil Service Reform proposed, and
has been open TO anything that would
give purity and economy to the admin
iStration of the country. 1t may have
an occasional person in its service Of
dishonest proclivities, but it has been
demonstrated, over and over again,
that as party it is far purer, in all
the essentials of honesty, than is the
Democratic party. Stand by the en-
tire Republican ticket.-PiHs. Gazette.

President Andrew Jackson-"Old

South Carolina in 1882 to put down
an attempted notification of the Uni

lamation-so has Grant now. And

Gratis of to-day are the fercest of
those who now denounce the Jack

change in the Democracy since
Jackson's time.
Democrstic speakers all allude to
" Republican rnisgovemment for siT-
teen years." but they fail to specify
that of those sixteen yeaIs the first
four, from 1861 to 1865, we're particu-

that not only ballots but bullets we're
required to keep the Democracy from
destroying the Union.

SAMUEL AND FORT WAYNE.

While it has been known that Mr..
Tilden had connections with the Fort
Wayne Railroad, and the Pennsylva-
MIA Company, which must have result
ted greatly to his financial profit, the
proof Of the fact and the specific
amounts have not been attainable. A
correspondent of the New York Times
has been cultivating that field, with
some success, but not with the full
result that is desirable. He shows
that Tilden secured the sale of the
Fort Wayne road, being one of the
purchasing committee, the deeds of
sale, drawn by Mr.. Tilden, being exc
cuted in March, 1862, the sale having
been made the month previous. That
he received large compensation for the
services rendered, most of which we're
performed in 1862, is morally certain,
although the specific evidence of the
fact is not attainable. The correspon-
dence shows that in 1869, Tilden Sc.
cured the lease Of the Fort Wayne
road to the Pennsylvania Company,
and speculated largely in its stocks,
acting on the knowledge he had of the
conditions of the lease, and its effect
in giving value to the stock. In this
single operation, besides the $4,000
he received for drawing the necessary
papers, he made a million or more.
This fee, at least, comes within the
purview of the income tax. This
amount is clearly ascertained to have
been paid; and yet the services rem.
dered were not comparable with those
rendered in 1862, and for which he
was paid, it is not known how much.
Revelations are soon to come from
the Brady's Bend Iron Company, in a
way that will be tangible and convin-
cling. Thus as time passes we gather
more and more the threadSof evidence
that render it at least morally certain
that, in swearing to his income tax for
1862, he committed perjury; while in
his railroad wrecking operations; he
has made large sums of money, on
which he has not at any time paid his
income tax Thus he has swindled
the Government. and this at a time
when he was amply able to pay his
ldAi anu Wubu blle OONeTum6ub so Sau-
ly needed the money to prosecute the
war Of rebellion. This is the Reform
er who proposes to lift the politics of
the nation up to a position of exalted
purity the political saint, who cannot
endure the corruptious of the Repub-
lican party. This is the high minded
honorable mar, who only seeks to do
that which is right, and cannot toler,
ate the Republican administration be-
cause it does not live within its income.
Such lofty purity compares with that
of Tweed, who, a year before his fall,
along with Tilden. prated Of reform in
the politics of New York and the coun-
try. Can any one fail to see the utter
hypocrisy Of all his pretenses, and the
wickedness of the man? He a Reform
er 1t is no more than Tweed professed
to be. We imagine the people under
stand too clearly how utterly worth
less in his pretense of reform to be
governed by it farther. We have
little fear that Samuel j. Tilden will
carry his system Of railway manage
ment into the administration of the
United States Government.-Pitts. Co.

INSTINCT AND RE1SOM.

DR.. LeConte, in Popular Science
Monthly, remarks that much of what is
classed as instinct in the lower animals is
really intellection. In many of the lower
forms of animals, it is true, there are ac-
tions which seem not the result of either
the experience of the individual or the
education of its parents, who frequently
die before the Matching of the offspring
There actions have been grouped togeth-
er, whether simple or complex, as di-
rected by what is called instinct, as op-
posed to reason. Yet there is every rra-
dation between the two.
Among the various races of dogs we
observe not only reasoning powers of
rather high order, but distinct traces of
moral sentiments like to those of the hui
man race. So in wild animals which
have been tanned. You will reply that
these qualities have been developed by
human education; but not so. There
must have been a latent capacity in the
brain to receive the education and to
the results by the modification
of the habits. Now, it is because we are
vertebrates, and the animals of which we
have spoken are vertebrates, that we un-
derstand, though imperfectly, their men
tai processes, and can develop the pow !
srs that are otherwise latent.

by the miner, the lapidary and the en-
graver necessary to the preparation of
every single beautiful stone before it is
ready to be set by the ieweler. Some
curious things might be written about
the prejudice often entertained against
wearing opals by people who ought to
know better, but who believe in the SUI
perstition that they bring i'll luck upon
the wearer. This singular notion is said
to have originated in Spain some twenty
years ago and to have eliminated il
France under the last Napol: on. 1t is a
compliment to the general intelligence of
Americans to know that il is not so often
heard of in this country. This supersti-
ton, however, must be dying out. as the
opal is said to be the favoFite jewel of the
ladies of the English court, Queen Vic
toria herself rarely wearing other jewels
in public. England is now the best
market for the product of the opal mines,
next to which are Germany and Austria;
and as the demand is said to be increas-
ing yearly, while the supply is diminish
ing, the merchantable value of tue jewels
is on the increase.
