coming in another direction. A movemen
is imminent on the part of Germany to OBJ

would seriously effect England. This con

THE politicians are quarrclng over Min
lister Bayard Taylor's place with livelness
not at all becoming. Gov. Hartranit of
Pennsylvania, and Gov John B. Henderson
Of Missouri, are most prominently named,
and, as Mr.. Hayes has long wished to oblige
the latter gentleman, it is likely the office
will 60 to him. Senator Chrstiancy has
been mentioned; but as this is simply a
scheme to get Chandler back to the senate,
it will not receive much consideration from
the administration. Outside of politics,
Richard A. Dana, jr., of Massachusetts,, is
mentioned. AS combining advantages both
in political and literary sense, and as a
representative OF the reform principles SO
dear to the administration, George VIM.
Curtis is spoken Of; but as brains are a
commodity not in request at the White
House, Curtis chances for the appointment
and his liability to be killed by lightning
are about equal.

CAUSE FOR CONGRATULATIONS

The Democracy of the country has cause
for self-congratulation in the fact that its
control in the 4Gth congress will depend up
on the degree of harmony and unity of pur-
pose maintained among its representatives.
The majority will be large enough for all
practical purposes; bu. not so large that po.
litical "damphoolishncss" may not destroy
it. And so with the party in the country at
large. Its popular majority is not so large
that excuses or villainies on TIE part of its
representatives or leading men may not
wipe it out, and score aprcponderanceo on the
other side. This condition of affairs is, we
repeat, quite fortunate, as well for the party
as the country, rs it is by far the best assur-
ancc the country could have that there will
be, in so far rs the Democratic party is con
ccrncd, careful, honest and well meant adj
minstration Of affairs, both State and Ma.
tional. Had the party q tremendous ma.
jority, however, the mere fact of its omni.
potcnce in public affairs would beget q
spirit of reckless defiance, and ovcr-confi
dence that would speedily exasperatc the
people and reverse the current of popular
opinion. In 1872 General Grant was re-
elected by majority that astonished even
the most sangunc of the Republican party
He carried more than lhreefourths OF til,
States, and was backed by congress, boil

IT is given out as an ascertaincd certainty
that president Hayes is for Grant as his
successor in the White House. There are
several reasons assigned for the Presidents
position in this matter chief among which
are these that Conkling is at daggers point
with HIM, and loses no opportunity to
thwart his aims and bring his adminisra-
ton into contempt. Blaine treats him with
cold neglect and studied indifference; 50 of
course Hayes couldn't favor either Conk-
ling or Blaine. OF Washburne, Of this
State, he probably never heard; and of the
possibility Of the "sly fox" of the treasury,
or the more scdate and polished occupant
Of the State department, even casting a
wistful eye upon the presidency, Mr. Hayes
has scarcely dreamed; so it is quite natural
that he should not favor the election of
WaShbsrne, Sherman or Evarts. He is for
Grant, because being a stupid man, very
thick skullcd yet very hopeful, he imagincs
it possible that if Grant can be elected
after an tout" Of four years, Hayes may be
elected after Grant In all his natural
stupidity, he imagines that he is one Of
Americas GOOD presidents, and that his
merits will be so warmly appreciated after
his retirement, that the people having had
a precedent in the third election Of Grant,
will call him into the white house again
over any opposition that can be organized
against him, Such are the simple mans
imaginings, and it is entirely natural,
therefore, that he should pass under the
Grant yoke aud hitch himself to the Grant
drag, rs he evidently has done.

Republican. In few short months the
Republican representatives of the party, cal
culatiDg too largely upon the endurance of
the people, "white-washed the Credit Mobi-
lier scoundrcls, enacted the Salary Grab,
covered up the French arms swindle,
doubled the presidents salary, put away
the Chorpenning scandal in swaddling
cloths of red tape, winked at the Sanborn
contracts; condoned the crimes Of George
M. Robson" and did other things at which
honest men stood surprised and appalled,.
Shameless leaders of the party sought to
defend these infamies on the stump; but the
people couldn't be deceived, and only await
ed the opportunity to express their disap-
probation. That opportunity was afforded
them in the year 1874. The Democratic
party that had been paralyzed by the de-
feat of 1879, was revitaized, took on the
strength of q giant, and hurled the offend
ing party from power, and, by a majority
that was cumbersome if not dangerous, took
to itself the popular branch Of the National
assembly, and, through the asccndancy it
gained in the legislatures Of a majority OF
the states, prepared the way for aacendancy
in the Senate.
Contemplating the experience Of the Re-
publican party, we, the Democracy Of 1918,
have cause to congratulate ourselves that
we were not given that overwhelming ma
jority that lured the Republicans of 1872
on to danger, We have now just such a
majority as is most likely to enforce lru-
dencc, economy and an honest PURPOSE
to subserve the best interests of the
nation The record thus far during the
present session, is good one. The Dino
cratic majority has shown a disposition to
devote themselves exclusively and inlus-
triously to public affairs, sinking presi lent
making entirely out of sight. The Ripub-
lican Senate, however, has sunk the public
business out of sight, and bent itslf al
most exclusively to the work of making
president for 1881. But the people ae on
the "towcr Of observation; they sc the
honest, industrious Democratic House and
the schcming, grasping, ppe-laying Re
publican Senate, and to say that, two Tears
from now, they will not put their stamp Of
disapproval upon the work Of the latter,
and say "wcll done, thou good and faithful
servants" to the former, is to distrust DE
honesty and integrity Of the people then
selves ard to assert, by implication at leas,
their incapacity for self-govcrnmcnt.

DESTITUTION AND ALARM AMONG
THE LABORING CLASSES OF
GREAT BRITAIN

Information published under our tele-
graphic head, and dispatches by cable
which have not escaped the eye of the
reader of our metropolitan daiies, confirm
the belief that England is on the verge of a
crisis Of suffering and distress that will sur.
prise and appall all civilized humanity.
Never before, at least during the present
generation, have the industries of that
country been SO sadly depressed. In the
manufacturing centers, thousands and tens
of thousands of laborers are idle, and even
the middle classes begin to feel the stngs
of poverty. Conspicuously is this the case
in Manchester where the poor ofthis class
are more numerous than elsewhere. They
are too proud to appeal to charity, and are
suffering most keenfy for the commonc.t
necessaries.

York Sun, where both private and public
charities are taxed to their utmost, and yet
are unable to prevent the greatest hunger

THERE have for several days been rumors
that Senator Conkling had positively refus-
ed to allow his name to be used in conncc-
ton with the Presidential, nomination in
1880, and that he would use his influence
for General Grant Tuesday last a similar
story was telegraphed from Philadelphia,
concerning Senator Blaine. There may or
may not be truth in these stories, but we

for them, De<pitc the contrary out.giviugs
