WASHINGTON, D. O., April 23.-The
Republicans ore gradually forming
their line and preparing their plan
of campaign. A large part of their
policy for the fall depends on the
blunders of the Democrats, and they
mean to make q great deal of the
Southern claims business. The un-
expected adoption by the Ways and
Means Committee of IN income tax
bill has given the Republican lead
ers n good deal of satisfaction. They
are opposed to it, but they may
allow it to pass in the Senate, where
their maj ority is narrow that fow
absentees will give the Democrats
control, and they say that if an in
come tax is actually levied it will
save New York, New Jersey
and Connecticut to the Republican
party. But aside from these tenn
porary issues, which are expected to
be helpful in the fall canvass, the
party leaders are coming to an
agreement upon permanent ques-
tions. Mr.. Blaines speech at Ches-
ter on Saturday is intended to
range his party definitely in favor
Of protection md in opposition to all
changes in the present oppressive
tariff. He introduced to-day
resolution in the Senate declaring
that there ought to be no change in
the tariff. At the same time Mr..
Blaine is in favor of large subsidies
to number Of lines of ocean steam.
ers as concession to commerce,
and it is probable that high pro-
tective tariff, with subsidies to ocean
commerce, will be found among the
permanent planks in the Republican
platforms hereafter. It may turn
out also that this platform will con-
tain resolution favoring the speedy
completion Of all public works, such
as river and hnrbor improvements,
public buildings and Notifications
and liberal policy for the improves
ment of great national channels of
commerce like the Mississippi River
and it's tributaries.
Finally, there are many indica-
tions to show that the party leaders
mean to 60 cautiously into an anti.
Catholic and Know Nothing move-
ment. The repeated denunciations
of Secretary Schurz as q foreigner
would not have been ventured on by
cautious and skilful politicians We're
there not purpose behind it, and
one sometimes Of late hears in Re
publican circles O discussion of the
question whether "tho Pope and
the rebel claims would not carry the
country. Altogether the Republi-
cans are picking up courage. They
feel themselves getting into shape,
and they do not think their oppo-
nents are either wise or united.
They believe that the currency
question will be out of the way be-
fore 1880, and that next fall they
have q fair chance, what with the
scare about rebel claims and the
bribe of subsidies and internal i'm
provements, added to q defence of
the present tariff, to carry maiori.
ty OF districts for the House.

Rosewood,

Ithas puzzled many people TO decide why
the dark wood 50 highly valued for furniture
should be called rosewood. Its color certainly
does not look much like a rose so we must
look for some other reason. Upon asking, we
are told that when the tree Is first cut the
fresh wood possesses very strong rose-like
fragrance, hence the name. There are half
dozen or more kinds Of rosewood trees. The
varieties are found In South America and in
the East Indies and neighboring islands, Some.
times the trees grow so large that planks are
principally used to make the tops Of piano
iortes. When growing in the forest the rose
wood trco Is remarkable for It's beauty; but
such Is its value In manufactures rs an orna-
mental wood, that some Of the forests where IL
once grew abundantly now have scarcely
single specimen. In Madras the government
has prudcntly had great plantations Of this
tree set out, in order to keep up the supply.
