No doubt many lives will be saved by the
provision which the Board of Health has made
to supply the tenement-hOuse poor with
medicines as well as medical advice. Indiffer-
snce or poverty has often prevented the full
6lment of the directions of the visiting physi-
clans, and many life has been lost because
Of ignorance or want or neglect. The willing
ness of druggists to furnish medicines at low
prices or even free Of cost seems to have had
little effect in preventing such mishaps.

several States should advise In the selection
Had the President followed the time-honored
precedent, and taken advice before making
appointments. the late disagreeable fiasco In
the cases Of the New York Offices would have
been avoided. Surely the office Of United
States Senator is Of dignity sufficient to entitle
him to suggest proper men for appointments
in his own state, when It's peDplo aud their
wants are just what he WIS especially elected
to represent. How much better that the sen
atorial advice" contemplated by the Constitu-
ton should come before appointment than
after. Indeed, the natural, reasonable, and
proper course in the premises, as sanctifcd by
the usage of long years, Is first, "advice" by
the senator, then the appointment by the
President, and lastly. the consent" Of the
assembled Senate, In this way alone can be
secured the full meaning of the provision,
with the advice and consent Of the Senate" "
Such, too, is the conclusion Of the Senate itself,
which has triumphautly sustained CoNKLTSG
in his position; and humiliating as 1t Is to
Republicans to see that body failing in accord
with the Administration, II is yet gratifying to
know that It has frmness of purpose sufficient
to maintain Its own prerogntives Under a
less powerful champion, however, this oppor-
tunity to assert its rights might have failed ;
and 1t is evidence of rare qualities of character
and a noble craftsmanship when this proud son
of the Empire State bears away the honon OF
the contest.

The Acklin-larrnlI Case.

We are told, upon what assumes to be the
best Democratic authority, that the contested
election case of AcKLIN VS.. DARRALL, from
Louisiana, Is not TO be decided on its merits,
but that II will be decided In favor of the
contestant, on the general ground that II Is a
solemn duty to eradicate the rpet-baggcr.'
What will Judge HARRIS and his Democratic
colleagues on tho Committee on Elections say
TO thisH Have they been giving their
organ information in advance of thorough
consideration of the whole case2 We are
aware that the majority of the committee
elected Mr.. PATTERSON to a seat in the House
rs the representative of the State of Colorado,
aud we are also aware that the chairman of
the compittce prejudgcd that case. But we
hardly think that even II they intended to
act rs the organ" indicates they would be
such fools as to advertise the fact to the
country. We have little hope Of anything but
a partisan report in any contested case, but if
the motive for unseating DARRALL is because
he is u carpet-bagger it will be scrupulousy
concealed. On the whole, therefore, we must
regard this statement Of tho organs" as
another Of its theories which Il would like to
have reduced to practice.

GUsTAvE CoURBET, the French artist, Is
dead. We can't cry, although he must have
known rough times since the French army,
under MACMAHoN, conquered Paris from the
Commune. CoURBET was the man selected by
the rid-rafr Of the FaubourRs to superintend
the pulling down of the NAPOLEON column in
the Place Vendome. 1t was an exhibition of
tho vilest vandalism, which has never been
excused, and was done simply because the col
umn made of the MARgNGo and AUsTERLITz
cannon, with the first NAPOLEON in n toga on
the summit typifed imperialism and CESAR
ISM. CoURBEr and others like him, men of
art and letters, could doubtless have saved It;
but the artist communist proceeded with his
iconoclastic operations, con dmOre, as It
seemed, and the magnificent shaft with the
little corporal on the top fell on bed of
manure in the Rue dc 10 Paix, shattered in n
hundred pieces. CoURBET escaped from Paris
or ho would have takeh his quarters in the
grey dawn along with hundreds of others on the
bloody Plains ofSartory. His property and pic
lures were confscated and sold, we believe, to
defray tho cost of the re-ercction Of the
monument, which now stands where it origi-
nally did, majestic sign-post Of the first en-
pire and the republic. Tho friends OF CoURBEr,
and they were many, appealed to the THEIRS
and MAcMAHoN governments for his release
from Punishment, but this was constantly re-
fused, and we believe he died fretful, and, as it
were, broken hearte d, red d.handed rebel in an
alien land.

following merited compliment to New York; 5
Republican senator:
The ability and force Of character that bave
so mark ed Senator CoNKLING's career in pub.
lie life have won new admiration in his late
management Of the United States Senate. He
Is rare leader Of men. Eloquent, proud, self
reliant and experienced, he approaches his con-
tests by no SinuOus or uncertain paths but,
like true knight, advances in the lists with
lance in rest and visor up, declaring his pur-
poses and hazarding his life upon the cast.
His hauteur is no lnannerism or qualifications but
rather the disdain Of noble spirit for any
thing mean, grovcling or disrcputdble He is
unapprOschable only to what should never be
approached. lie Is inplacabls only when
asked 10 compromise principle. Although
to quarrel with the executive promised To be
the defeat of his lifc's ambition, he did not
heeitato 10 make the sacrifice when the pre-.
rogativos and dignity Of the Senatorial Office
were impugned, He read tho constitutional
provision that appointments TO office should be
lnado with the advice and consent of the
senate" and II Is owing 10 his heroic attitude

umns of a journal with the matter it pre-
sents. 1t is the character Of that matter
with which the reader has to do, and II is
by that test that the merit or demerit Of the
production is to be judged. If the inculca-
tions of the THE REPuBLICANare consistent
with the public taste and sense OF right,
though the Post shall bury its editor with
cpithet and scurrility, its matter will be ac-
cepted with approval, and meet proper re-
ward. STEPHEN HARVEY says:
And there's lust in man no charm can tame
OflOuldly publishing our neghb1T shamei
on eagles wings immortal scandals fly.
While virtuous actions are but born to do
We must leave Others to indulge that lust
and follow out its cravings, while THE RE-
PUBLICAN will confine itself to Legitimate
discussions of subjects Of public interest
and profit, ondeavoring to perpetuate the
good of society, leaving scurrility and abuse
to those who hate that excellence they can
not reach. i

Word WIN The "Post..

We would not be as angry as the Post
appears to be for nine times nine hundred
subscribers. We pity its infrmity, and
shall treat its filthy outpourings of epithet
rs it deserves. We must respectfully de-
cline the gauge Of controversy it tenders,
for the simple reason that The REPUB-
LICAH is published to meet the TASTES Of Il
reading public, and they can have no posi-
BILE interest in personalities, vulgar epithets,
or dirt throwing Of any kind. If that line
of controversy is suited to the Posts ideas
OF journalism il can have the entire monop.
oily of 1t, with all its advantages and beno.
fits. 1t has beset The REPUBLICAN and it
editor from the day Of its advent with 4
scurrility of expression that may suit tt
own taste and that of its readers, but We
cannot consent to return il in kind undei
any provocaton. 1t is our aim to respect
the inpersonality of journalism, and con
1ne our discussions to the legitimate sphere
sscognized by all respectable journals

bibulous printers, the suffering, misery and
want that is entailed by their habits of inc

has been made to suffer In larger proportion to
its whole number, the bitter fruits Of intem-
pcrance than that of printing. But 1t is char
actorstic of the efficient typo" to do with his
might what he sets out to do, and while we re-
ioice that tho members Of the craft have deter
mined to save themselves, and strive to save
others by joining in the present reformation,
we hope they will all join in giving their BAL
timore friends grand and joyous welcome on
the occasion of their visit at Lincoln Hall to-
night. II will be seen that the invitations are
not confined to the craft, but that all are in
vited.

Baked beans possess rare virtues. They con-
