The new dominion. [volume] (Morgantown, W. Va.) 1876-1904, 1878-07-13

When a man is SO ignorant that he
stands boldly up to another man and
says '.there has been no contraction
in the currency tits enough to make
the immortal gods hold their sides
and run away out into the woods and
roll oue- on the grass and howl. But
when he says that the old, worn out
hulk of a Republican party, worn
thrcad-bare in cloaking crime and
villainy, So rotten that the least
pressure Of the thumb on its body
polite canses an emulation and
breaking forth of the most disgusting
mass of corruption, is the only saliva
ton Of the country, that is enough to
lash the very elements into rage,
and cause the unseen cherubim and
seraphin to tear of their wings and
pluck out their hair and feathers in
wretched despair.

THE PEACE NEGOTIATIONS.

Some substantial progress appears
to have been made by the Peace Con
gress al Berlin. AS indicated by
such reports as come to hand the
representatives are not disposed to
spend too much time in deliberation,
and having got over the preliminary
arrangements they are making short
work of the partition Of the Turkish
Empire. One of the first decisions
of the Congress seemed highly favor
able to Turkey, in according the
Turkish right to fortify the Balkan
Passes. 1t was evident, however,
that this was more than counterbal-
anced by the position conceded to
Russia in the possession of Batoum,
Sophia, and other places. 1t has
since been decided that Austria shall
occupy Bosnia and Herzegovina.
Russia is to have Bessarabia, and
Roumania will receive in exchange
the Dobrudja, with an advanced front
Ter extending from the neighborhood
of Silistria to Mangalia, on the Black
Sea. Both Servia and Montenegro
are to be absolutely free. This ar
rangement restores to Russia terrific
ry of which she was despoiled in
1856, and gives to Roumania foot
hold on both sides of the Danube, as
well as convenient ports on the Black
Sea. These changes are all impor-
tant, but hard upon Turkey. 1t
seems that the Empire is to be dis
membered and divided among hel
rivals. The Turkish representative
threatens q protest and withdrawal
1t is not certain that war will be
averted by the arrangements so fal
made.

To the Graduates.

The commandments of our colleges
are over, and the boy graduates,
burdened with classic lore and good
advice from the newspapers, ARE launch
ed on the ocean of life where class
mates will meet hereafter like ships
at sea that signal each other, take
bearings and depart. We have just
one word of advice not of very serious
import, but which seems opportune
for the moment. Our young friends
from academic halls have got their
last opportunity for a good vacation.
Let all of them that can do so take
one and long and restful one, ere
they begin the sterner work of earn
ing bread and fame. Some of them
in law or medical schools may still
foresee, or think that they foresee,
vacations like those that have been
bright spots in the oasis of college life.
But when those resting times are
reached they find that they are shad-
owed by the realities and responsible
tiles that impend from the life-work
beyond; and when these young fellows
go step farther into the struggle they
will discover what so fe v of them re-
alize now, that a vacation for the toll
er is mere recess, so short that one
scarcely catches breath before the end
of it is reached. They will be work
ers who must stop for rest and not FOR
pleasure. So may they realize that
the college vacation that'they now en-
joy is their last real playtime, for diff
ferent from those transient intermis-
sions from business which we call va
cations as pleasant fiction of habit.
Let our graduate friends therefore re-
joice and recreate for a goodly NUM-
Der of weeks while they are still youth
and before they become men Ylth

THE FOURTH.

The ever-memorable Fourth Of July
was again celebrated with customary
honors last Thursday. In many
places preparations had been previ-
ously made and were carried out with
becoming zcst. 1t is well to recall and
dwell upon the historic associations of
the day; and it will, indeed, prove an
importantmattcr if the remembrance
of the patriotism and purity of Wash
ington, Franklin, and other fathers
of the country, should lead to a re
formation of political sentiment and
action among the present ofiicehold-
ers and seekers. There has obvious
ly been serious decline from the
lofty standard set up q hundred
years ago; and it is of little avail
that the country is now encouraged
to commemorate the brilliant deeds
of its first rulers unless those of the
present generation also strive to en-
ulate their example. Many noble
sentiment has been uttered during
this Fourth of July celebration; ard
the whole nation will be the better if
henceforward both rulers and people
strive to act more rigidly in accord
ance with the principles so luminous
ly expressed in the Declaration of
Independence.
