over six members of the Senate 10 be
chosen, who will hold over and help
elect Mr.. Bayard's successor to the
United States Senate two years hence.
The Senator's conservative and liberal
course during the last session of Con-
gress has hurt him with the Bourbons,
but they will hardly be able to throw
him overheard. Republican.
BN-The Utica Observer, the leading
Democratic newspaper of Central New
York, thus tersely expounds the civil
service policy of its party:
II may be proper to repeat here, what we
have said before, that when our party comes
TO power the President Of its choice win be ex-
pected TO turn out all the Republican office
holders and appoint competent Democrats in
their places.
And in this, if in nothing else, the
Democratic party is consistent. It will
rigidly perform in this respect just
what l. promises. Wherever it has
come. to power, in municipal or State
Governments, this policy has been faith
fully carried out. But if it does come
into possession of the general Govern
ment in 1880 the heads of only about
three-fourths of the Federal office
holders will fall. The remaining one
fourth, though holding Office under an
Administration elected by Republican
votes, are not obnoxious to the charge
of being Republican office-holders. Yet
their association with Republicans will
be sufficient cause of removal. Their
dough-faces will be turned outward

A Word of Warning.

REPUBLICANS, now is the time to put
forward your best men. A hard and
vital contest is at hand. United, YOU
can win; divided, you must fail. In
each Congressional district are able and
reliable men, who can unite the Repub-
lican vote and draw some strength from
the opposition. To waste the opportu-
nifty by divisions, engendered by the
ambition of party leaders, or on ac-
count of local claims or preiudices,
will be, under the circumstances, little
less than criminal. The best talent, the
larger experience, and the greatest pop
ular strength should be called to the
front. You cannot win with incompe-
tent or unpopular candidates, or those
against whom strong local or personal
prejudices may temporarily exist
These must be set aside for the time be-
ing, and the best men for the present
emergency taken. Other things being
equal, the largest experience will be the
most useful.
Republicans you must organize for
the selection of candidates and for their
election when nominated. There should
be no delay in this work. 1t must be

imminent revolution, in the face of the
payment of rebel claims, the overthrow
of the constituted authorities, the de-
struction of the public credit, the deg
radiation of labor, the persecution of
loyal men, and the stamping out of
loyal sentiment. This is not declama-
ton; it is sober reality. The record of
the Democratic party in the past and
present, read Alright, affords incontesti-
BILE proof. These words are spoken not
to alarm, but to forcwarn. Look at the
attitude of the Democratic leaders, the
cloud of rebel claims, the multiplied as
saults upon the public Treasury, the
suppression of popular suffrage in all
the South, the practical abolition of
popular education where these leaders
have unlimited control, and answer at
the ballot-box whether, in your opin-
ion, these men, flushed with victory,
will forego the purpose so audaciously
determined upon when only the hope
of success inspired them.-Republic.

0razed by the Use of Arsenic,

About year or so ago young lady
of sunny temperament, and pleasant
features began to use to excess prepa-
rations for bleachingher hair to fash
ionable golden tinge, and, at the same
time became slave to that beautifier
of the complexion and the form-the
deceptive poison, arsenic. Her feat
ures before, though not beautiful, were
at least good. People soon remarked
her changed appearance for the better.
Her complexion was rosy and bloom
ingi her hair soft, silky and of beau
tiful tinge; her form plumper than it
had been, and her skin smooth and
white. But her self-congratulation did
not last long. Headaches soon followed,
growing more and more violent every
day; but still she kept on using the
abominable stuff which has been the
ruin of so many. OF late her suffer-
ings have been almost intolerable. The
blessings of sleep has not been hers. Her
head was very hell of torture night
and day. Her mind grew feebler, her
thoughts wandered, her intellect was
lost, and to-day, girl of twenty years,
she is confined in a cell in that prison
of the living dead, Stockton, maniac.

assumed. Even IL the constitutional
votes for him could be proved to be
the majority, il would be equally clear
that the result was due TO intimidation,
and therefore that it was not honest.
All these things, however, pro and
con, can not be proved. The Potter
investigation has merely filed the air
with a cloud of lies, and the report can
not affect public opinion more than the
reports of the "visiting statesmen "
and the Congressional committee af-
fected it at the time. Apparently it
will not even "keep the pot a-bilin' )"
and Mr.. Tilden, as the Democratic can
didate, on platform of fraud, is made,
by the results of the investigation, and
by the political situation, much less
probable than Mr.. Thurman, as the
candidate, on q quasi-greenback plat
form. Hdrper's WeekLV.

EORTK LESS ONE.

Over by the tangled thicket,
Where the level meets the hill,
Where the mealy alder.bushcs
Crowd around the ruined mill.
Where the thrushes whistle early,
Where the midges love TO play,
Where the nettles tall and stinRing,
Guard the vine-obstructed way,
Where the tired brooklet fingers
In n quiet little pool
Mistress Salmo Fontinalis
Keeps very private school.
Forty little speckled beauties
Come to learn of her each day,
How 10 climb the foaming rapids;
How 10 navigate the eddieB,
How 10 sink and how TO rise,
How to watch for passing perils.
How 10 leap for passing flies
When TO play upon the surface,
When beneath the stones TO hide
All the secrets of the water,
All brook learning, true and tried:
That's q good-foT-nothing skipper"
That the flicker Of the sunshine,
When the alder-leaves are stirred,
That's the shadow of cloudlet;'
That's a squirrel come to drink;'
"That-look out for him, my darlings!-
He's a fierce and hungry mink"
That's the ripple on the water,
When the winds the wavelets stir;"
That-snap quick, my little hearties!-
That's luscious graeshopper."
So the elder Mistress Salmo
Gives her counsel. day by day
Teaching all the troutly virtues,
All life's lessons, grave and gay.
Well she knows the flashing terror
of King Fishers sudden fall
Well she knows the lurking danger
of the barb'd hook, keen and small!
Well she tries to warn her pupils
of all evils, low and highl
But, alas, the vain young trifers
Sometimes disObey-and die!
What was that which passed so quickly,
With slender shade behind2
What is that which stirs the alders
When no ripple tells of wind2
What send Mistress Salmo darting
Underneath the stones in fearp-
Crying; Hide yourselves, my darlings!
Our worst enemy is nearP
am bound TO understand it,
Says one self-proud speokle-side;
When see the dangers real,
Then, if need be, 1 can hide.
SO he waits alone and watches,
Bees the shadow pass again,
Sees a fly drop on the water
Dashes at it might and main.
Missed i'll Well, :" he says, " neverl
That's the worst jump made to-day!
Here another comes-now for itg'
Splash! He's in the air-to stay!
