WASHINGTON, Nov. %.
During the struggle yesterday the
curious, significant and mortifyinR
spectacle was presented OF the colored
Senator Bruce rising and announcing
that he was paired with Senator Como.
YER. Up to this time 1t is doubtful
whether anything has occurred in
connection with the humfliating scenes
OF the last week which &c clearly sci
forth the real character Of Conover's
apostacy. He. - . Senator elected

THROW WING Up THE PARTY
SPONGE.

The Cincinnati Co numerical, a Re-
publican journal. is forced to the con
viction that the dissolution Of the Re-
publican party is near at hand, be-
cause Senator Morton has passed away,
who. it claims, was the prominent
leader of the party. 1t claims that
there are other great men in its ranks,
but bemoans the fact that the party is
divided, and nowhere presents q solid
front to the enemy.
The Commercial Il mistaken in
both conclusions. Morton has passed
away, it 10 true. 1t Is also true that
while living he was the leader of his
party. But it is not true that he Is the
only man in the party that possesses
that peculiar force Of character,
mistaken, determined purpose and
aptitude Of personality befisting . sue.
cessful leadership. There are other
men, not wholly without experience,
and with equal ability, who will as

contest to come in 1880, will do it more
successfully than Morton could, il
alive, at the head of his party. The
Commercial is also in error, If it speaks
sincerely. in supposing that the party
is approaching q speedy dissolution.
That the party will go out of power in
1880 we can scarcely entertain a doubt.
but not without . severe and most de-
termined struggle with the incoming
Democracy. Republicanism is not
dead, nor Is its dissolution or death
desirable, on the part Of Democrats.
Democrats are firm and unwavsring
in their convictions as to the princi
pies upon which u government In
instituted and should be maintained,
while Republicans are as unfaltering
in their opposition. Just SO long as
these differences exist there will be
two parties based upon the distin-
gushing differences that have, and do
now, characterize the two parties.

day number. The first one, issued last
year, was enthusiastically received by
critics and readers, so that the first edi-
ton was at once exhausted and $4,000
extra copies sold before the demand was
supplied. This year the number for Au-
gust has been gotten up with even more
special reference to the season. The
opening illustrated article is devoted to
North American Grouse, and no true
sportsman or lover of birds can fail to
be attracted by the beauty of the descip-
ton and engravings. Another illustrat-
ed article "a Railroad in the Clouds"
describes one of the most remarkable
engineering achievements of the centu-
ry, the Peruvian Railroad over the An
DIES, some parts of which are over $4,000
feet above the sea level, and many of
whose bridges span ravines filled with
perpetual clouds, Another illustrated
article is on Canadian Sports then there
is a new story by Auerbach, the distin-
guished German novelist. The first edi-
ton of $4,000 of this number was issu-
ed July 20, and is for sale by all news
dealers; price IS cents.

The TEMPERANCE REVIVAL
Harper's Weekly has very sensi.
BILE article upon the Murphy move.
ment, from which the following is
an extract:
Mr.. Murphy is a total abstinent,
and he recommends total absti.
hence; but he is not, as we under
stand, what is technically known
as prohibitionist, and indeed he
frankly comedies that there is a
choice of evils in the matter, and
that it is better to drink beer than
whiskey. His method is the old
method of moral suasion. He was
for many years habitual drunk
ard. He has, therefore, all the
knowledge that actual experience
and observation can supply of the
condition of the drunkard and of
the better methods of his relief.
He considers all the circumstances
He sees that climate, temperament,
and the nature of the liquor are
important elements in treating the
question practically. At a recent
meeting Mr.. Murphy is reported to
have said, "The German can 60 to
the beer garden and come home
perfectly sober after drinking all
day; he is really the most sensible
1rinlar in Amerioao
Mr.. Murphy also, though he has
had the most bitter experience, does
not hold the dram-sellers personal.
~ and individually responsible.
He does not denOunce them as imps
of hell, but insists that they may
be honest and respectable men. In
the same speech he said: "The
liquOr-sellers are men as well as any
Of my nearer, and they have virtu-
GUS wives and daughters the same
as any other men. There are hon
orable men among them l would
trust to take my daughter to Eng
land if necessary. The saloon keep
ers are men, and they must be treat
ed like them, and not be ridiculed or
reviled." His faith is evidently
strong in the persuasive power of
the right; and as his plan is persua-
sion, he wisely holds that you had
better not slap a mans face as the
preliminary means to his CONVEX
sion. If you begin by calling a
man a scOundrel and rascal, the
maker of widows and orphans, and
a damning pestilence and nuisance
in the community, your subsequent
remarks will probably interest him
no more. These movements have
plainly given fresh impulse to the
cause of temperance, and cannot
fail to command universal sympa-
thy and approval.

"MoLLY STARK" A correspon
dent from New Hampshire writes
that although the late Mrs. Stark
was named "Elizabeth," and not
"Mary," it does not folly that the
General did not have a "Molly."
That was the pet name which he
always used in addressing his wife.
Judge Thurston, native of Bed.
ford, states that a school teacher,
William Hall, who used to teach in
the Stark district, and who had
boarded in Gen. Stark's family, told
him that the General was in the
habit Of calling his wife "Molly."
This would seem to substantiate
the traditional speech attributed to
him at Bennington, which has been
doubted so far as it relates to his
wife, from the fact that her name
was "Elizabeth."
