three Republicans and Democrats will
smlhngly unroll their cherished postal
currency and shout, "see that" Under
such conditions what is poor per-
plexed parry politician to do? How can
he have any sentiments on these sub
jects when the people and the parties
have become so mixed?
Blaine undertook to render the Fourth
of July memorable by announcing po-
litical issue on the subject of Mexican
and Canadian conquest and annexation.
But Hayes makes prompt denial OF tdis
very soft impeachment. Republicans
can not dwell together IN unity on these
questions any more than Oh the others.
Southern Democrats care now no more
for Mexican territory than for Cana
dian; while Northern DemoqKats wound
like reinforcement OF "Greasers" to
swell tho columns of the "Solid SOUTH"
in which sign they hope to conquer.
Hayes raises particular holiday by
directing his Federal employees to mind
the business they are paid for doing,
and not meddle with the peoples busi-
ness at conventions. The employees
stand aghast and exclaim, "How shall
we continue to be employees unless we
run the machineW Democrats and Re-
publicans again unite in commencing
this; so that no party issue can be
raised out of that. Both sides say, only
let the rings and machine politicians be
kept out Of the way, and political issues
will disappear with them. The people
will find themselves more nearly in ac-
cord than they themselves had ever
supposed, while party strife was stimu.
lated by those whose positions in place
depended on the intensity of the con.
tllct.
The period OF political conventions is
at hand. We think that the platform
business will require more verbal ill.,
genuity and elasticity than ever before.
The framing OF political issues when
there are none is verify an act of crea.
tion. 1t is making something out OIL
nothing. But the consolation will be
that such something will be SO near to
nothing as not to lead to suspicion ol
anv violation of organic law,

stomach and liver, producing bilious
ness, heartburn, costlveness, weakness,
irregular appetite, low spirits, raising
food after eating, and often ending in
fatal attacks of fever. They know they
are sick, yet get little sympathy. The
unfailing remedy, which is yearly re-
storing thousands, is DaCosta's Radical

CESNOLA'S RECENT EXPLORATIONS II
CYPRUS,

The later explorations were, like the
former, carried on in various parts Of
the island oil Cyprus. We snail not at
tempt 10 antlcIpa,e General Cesnola's
book by any detailed account OF his
work. Now he sought under the ruins
of temple Tor relics Ot ancient WoI-
ship; now he eXcaVated long rows oil
tombs, finding in them the uead men
surrounded by more or less OF Lne uten-
slls and ornaments of their lives. He
has orened moie than ten thousand an
cient graves in the Island.
The reader is not TO suppose that the
opening Of an old tomb Is merely the
batterIng-in OF door and the entering q
yaulted chamber. Such it is i'll Egypt,
where the tomb is rock-heWn. But III
Cyprus The tombs sought by Cesnola are
mostly far below the surface OF the
ground, and invariably filled with eartb,

TIE SUTTEE,

On the death OF Sir Jung Bahadoor,
Prince of Nepaul, three of his widows
revived the ancient practice of suJtee,
by burning themselves with his remains
on funeral pyre. In those parts OF
India governed directly by Engllshmen,
suttee has been completely suppressed,
but Nepaul is one Of the semi. depend.
ent States where the ancient code in
many respects holds sway. Sir Jung
died while at his deYoIions, and his
wives resolved to seek the highest con.
ISOLATION. They piled the pyre with
sandal wood, the first lady took the
head of the corpse between her knees,
and the others sat around it, while the
chief mourner lighted the pile. Tnis
custom is said to take its rise from 4
mlstranslation of the sacred Vedas, but
it must be pretty old one, Tor the first
historic instance OF it precedes the
Christian era by three centuries. 1t was
supported by the Brahmins as an easy
way Of settling questions Of dover
The present recurrence OF it is. SO shock.
ing to the British people that it is likely
TO prove the occasion OF more super
vision OF States like Nepaul.
