A Blunder and lis Reward.


During his first visit to Paris M.
Lassalle. distinguished German,
presented himself at the house of
well known lady, to whom he had
sent letters Of introduction in adj
vance. When the servant opened
the door and received his card she
conducted him to the boudoir and
told him to be seated, saying:
"Madame will come in Immediate
ly."
Presently the lady entered. She
was in deshabille and her feet were
bare, covered only with loose slip
pers. She bowed to him carelessiy
and said: "Ah, there you are;
good morning"
She threw herself on a sofa, let
fall o slipper, and reached out to
Lssselle her very pretty foot.
I.asselle was naturally complete
ly astounded, but he remembered
that at his home in Germany it
was the custom sometimes to kiss
lady's hand and he supposed it
was the Paris mode to kiss her
foot. Therefore he did not hesitate
to imprint kiss upon the fascina-
ting foot so near him, but he could
not avoid saying, "Ithank you,
madame, for this new method of
making a lady's acquaintance. 1t
is much better and certainly more
generous thai kissing the hAnd.u

The Associated Press is careful
not to permit note of the fine
things which Senators Thurman
and Bayard, and other patriotic
Democrats, are saying and doing
In Congress-, to reach the Pacific
Coast. If the Democratic party
stands up to the genuine American
doctrine that elections must be
free from the supervision of Fed
eral bayonets, and that the South
erner shall not be excluded from a
seat in the jury box by system of
tyrannical and un.Republican test
oaths, it will win. Ifit shall show
the white feather, the intelligent
and progressive Democrat is war;
ranted in having grave misgivings
of the future. The Republican
talk of revolution is the veriest
twaddle, meant to cloak imperial
ist and despotic schemes. If Mr..
Hayes will not allow the direct
representatives of the people to ex-
ercise the functions imposed upon
them by the Constitution
of the United States; If
he insists upon his right to
employ Federal Supervisors at
the polls to "bull-doze" the citizen;
II he desires an army to terrorize
over the voter, the duty of the
Democratic majority is plain-let
it provide for the ordinary running
expenses of the government and
for the interest on the public debt.
and throw upon Hayes the onus Of
disbanding the army. The latter
should not consist of more than ten
thousand men anyhow. That
number was found amply sufficient
when the territory of the United
States embraced all its present
limits except Alaska, and when the
hostile Indians were twice as nu-
merous as they are now.

1T will be seen by our kilograms
that the London Times takes q
very gloomy view of the tendency
and probable effects of our new
Constitution. There is a good deal
Of exaggeration in such CONN ents
and even more misiDformation. It
ls quite probable that we shall
have ample cause to regret many
provisions Of our new organic law,
but there is no necessity for run
ming into downright absurdity IN
describing them. We shall proba-
bly, find 1t expedient to modify
many features OF the new instru.
ment, but the machinery for such
modification is provided in the
document itself. We are great
ways from the Paris Commune.

WE publish elsewhere the reso-

are redolent of the primal integri.
