ST.. PETERSBURG, Oct. 13.-An off,
cial dispatch says on the 9th inst,
there was o naval engagement in the
Sulina mouth of the Danube, during
which the Turkish steamer crossed
the line of torpedocs, laid during the
previous evening. An explosion fol-
lowed and tho steamer sank, when
the Russian cutter proceeded to haul
down her (the Turkish vessel's) flag.
1t is supposed that all on board the
steamer persisted.

THE DEcREDArloN.

1t would seem that in pursuance OF
the policy, the administrator has
thought to make an exhibition in
politics of the parable of the Prodigal
Son. Indeed we have heard this
thought suggested in defense of the
policy. The trouble is, however, that
the thing has been overdone. 1t is
not that the thoroughly repentant
prodigal has been invited to a feast,
that complaint is made. 1t is not that
the repentant wanderer from home
has been given q comfortable place
In which to live. but the trouble il
that the faithful son has been dis
graced and turned out to make room
for the prodigal, and that prodigal
not repentant one either, but one
coaxed to come back upon his own
terms, part of which was that the
faithful SON should give place to him
Again, the policy has not only done
al this, but it is about to result in
turning the whole thing over into the
hands of unrepentant prodigals, if i,
shall be persisted in yet a little while
longer. The parallel, therefore, be-
tween the policy of the President
and the policy of the old man men
tioncd in the parable shows moth
ing in common between them. Tit
old man was mcrciful and just blu,
the policy is very sadly deficient in
justice. g...s..

DEMOCRATIC Congressman Black
burn, of Kentucky, in the city OF
Newark, Ohio, a few days since made
. speech for the democracy, in which
he said:
"He accepted all the benefits of the
policy of reconciliation coming from
Mr.. Hayes, but at the same time
Hayes held his Office the same as any
one held stolen property. Speaking
of the Senate, he said he chopped God
would not spare Gov. Morton to re-
turn to his seat in the Senate" This
was more than the people were will
ling to hear, and murmurs of disap-
probation could be heard in all parts
Of the audience, and someone shouted
"Y0u are rebel" which came nigh
creating disturbancc,s and would,
had it not been for the cooler heads
present. The better class of demo-
Gratis were intensely disguised with
this speech, and say that it did their
cause great harm, and tried to excuse
1t by saying that he was under the in
fluence Of liquor"
He Is simply one Of the pacified
southern democrats, who does not
play the hypocrite, but speaks out his
real sentiments. There will be plenty
more of the same sort who will speak
out boldly when they shall have OBJ
tanned complete power under the
reign of the policy.

The Irreconc,lab,es.

Special Dispatch to the Chicago Tribune.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1.-THE violent
speeches of prominent democratic
Congressman at the Willard Hotel
last evening has created marked
sensation. Success in the Ohio Cleo
ton seems to have turned the head of
the average democratic Congressman,
and deprived him of all the political
sagacity he ever possessed. A YER
batim report of the exultant demo-
cratic jubilee of last evening would
be an excellent document to circulate
in the New York canvass. Prudent
democrats feel alarmed lest the Ohio
victory should put the control of their
party into the hands of its violent and
dangerous element. The speakers
generally attacked tho Presidents
title in bitter and rancorous language,
which is very feebly portrayed in the
meagre Associated Press report.
Some of the more moderate demo-
cratic congressman are making haste
to say that they shall take the earliest
opportunity in Congress to disavow
the sentiments expressed. Joe Black
burn, OF Kentucky, was the most vio-
lent speaker. In the fulsome sopho-
morical periods for which he is noted,
he placed his seal of condemnation
upon what he called the ssusurper of
the White House." who, he declared
could read his own doom in the Ohio
verdict as Belshazzar had read the
doom in words of fire. Rice and
Hurd, of Ohio, used similar language.
These three gentlemen acted with tho
filihustcring wing of the party last
winter, and such sentiments were not
unexpected from them; but II was
surprise when Milton Sayler, q prom
inent candidate for tho Speakership.
and an anti-fllibustcrer, followed in
the same strain.

istence ofthe Republican party.
