senatorial Dignity.
Washington Capital.

The Camerons, for example, pro
ducts of corner grocery, with no
more refinement or culture than mules,
lifts hats as they approach, through
the magic of wealth and political po-
sition. Heads bow to them over
hearts that feel contempt they dare
not express.
Senatorial dignity is grotesque in
its immensity. At no capital on
earth hut ours could such manner
as that INDUCED in by our Lord Cap
ricornus (Conkling) survive the con-
tempt and ridicule it creates. He
swells and struts and poses like the
Mock Duke, and no one iares to
laugh.
phe Democratic leaders strive to
shake this malign influence. and are
therefore more popular than their
political opponents. Senators Thur
man, Mcdonald and Dan Voorhees,.
for instance, are as plain and unpre-
tending here as at home.
If Senator Thurman lifts your hat
it will be because your hair stands on
end ut some of his rather strong Ian
guage.
The Southern officials have man.
nerism that is not official, because il
is born to them aud natural. ASouth'
erner, seated on cane bottom chaiI
in front of a tavern, with a cigar In
his mouth is as dignifeu in his way
as Julius Cesar.
This manerism is little stilted
but not unpleasant. We took the
liberty of stopping Senator Butler
once, as he was walking slowly
through one of the lobbies of the Sen
ate. We we're a stranger to him
and his face for the instant expressed
the surprise of a gentleman, and hi
listened not only patiently but kindly
to what we had to say. Were an,
one to try that on the average Scion
especially of the Senate, the respons'
would be an insult.

Grant and Blaine.

An Illinois Republican paper las
hit upon novel plan to settle the Re
publican nomination on a basis en-
tirely satisfactory to the two leading
candidates. II proposes Grant for
president and Blaine for vice-presi>
dent. This arrangement has been
suggested before, and found to be un-
acceptable to Mr.. Blaine, who objects
to secondary position to any man;
but the Illinois paper attempts to over
come mis- objection by giving him this
piece OF interesting information:
The ice-president is going to be
much more than mere figure head
in the next four years; that is, if
Grant is the nominee. We have it
from the most reliable and trustwor-
thy source, medical one of highest
authority, that Geu. Grant is afflicted
with a mortal complaint; that his
health is such that the general can moi
live but short time longer; that, il
the whole truth was known, it would
be known that he is in precarioui
health; that he could not survive an
other term of Office; nor does thil
seem unreasonable.
''Let Senator Blaine yield graceful
ly then, and in so doing, he will be
insurlng the success of the party Il
which he owes his political all, and HI
will also, if nominated with Grant
at last attain the object OF his honera
ble ambition. st. Louis Republican

inent authors among its contributors.
During recent years we have not a
few papers by Edward A., Freeman,
the historian, and the leading article
in the present number, "The Lords of

sketch of the various processes adop>
ted in mining, with some account of
the present and profitable future pro-
duction of these metals. "Modern

comments on the history of Greece
since the battle of Navarino, and
especially condemns the policy of
England with respect to the
Greek cause. Practical Esthe-
tics" urged the establishment of
art galleries and museums and
the decoration of public parks aud
other places of holiday resort, as
means of creating in the popular mind
feeling of artistic beauty. Others
are "The Christian Idea of God"
which deals especially with the doc
trine of incarnation; "Early Noncon-
formist Psalmody," an amusing ac>
count of the trouble attending the in
PRODUCTION of singing in public wor.
ship, "Why is Scotland Radical ?"
"Mr Gladstone and the Nation;" and

The Judge says that in West Vir-

factories.
The above figures are not probably
accurate, but are approximately cor
rect.
The Judge has made the calcula-
ton, and says that the combined force
of the spindles in the States named
can convert 23O, 900 bales of cotton
averaging $50 pounds to the bale-in'
to cloth in a year. He also states that
the Georgia factories can handle about
one bale in twelve of the Georgia crop.
The Atlanta cotton factory runs
10, ,2O4 spindles, and can easily spin up
5000 bales q year. 1t has more spin
dies than the States of Louisiana and
Arkansas combined. 1t has more
spindles than the whole Stateof Texas.
This factory runs with wondrus precis
sion, breaking only one thread every
nine minutes.
The reporter learns that two more
cotton factories are to he built in Au'
gusta during the present year, one ol
which-the Sibley factory-is to have
more spindles than any mill now run

THE NEXT PRESIDENCY.
what Tom Ewing of Ohio
Thinks About It.

From the New York Herald. Feb. q.
When Gen. Thomas Ewing of Ohio
was stopping at the Fifth Avenue ho-
tel he vas asked to express his opin-
ion as to the probability of the ex-
presidents nomination in Chicago as
it appears since the Harrisburg con-
ventioa, and in reply said: "The Har-
risburg convention strengthened him
for the nomination, but diminished
his general popularity. If the New
York convention be carried for him
also the more timid Of the anti-third
term republicans will shut up If
the Illinois convention be carried for
him, too, the Republican politicians
who have ever opposed the third term
will be hard to find, and the expires
ident will receive the nomination with
hurrah. At the same time nothing
is more certain than that his nomina-
is not demanded by the people nor
sought by his unselfsh friends"
Gen Ewing was next asked wheth>
er the ex-president will, if nominated
by the Chicago convention, be a
strong candidate before the people.
The answer was:
II think not. In addition to the
general repugnance to a third term,
the fact that the popular feeling in
Pennsylvania for Blaine was contempt
uously regarded by the managers and
the machine politicians who have
championed the ex-president, has
hurt him immensely"
To the question, HAS the expires
ident any supporters in Ohio, and
what kind of delegation will the Re.
publicans of Ohio send to Chicago
Gen. Ewing answered.
1.-The machinery of the Republican
party in Ohio is in the hands of Sher-
mans friends, and he will get large
majority, at least, OF the Ohio delega-
ton. l doubt if the ex-president will
have any part of it. Those who are
not for Sherman l suppose will be for
Blaine"
what about the Democrats Of
Ohio, gene al? Who is their first
choice?"
''If MIR. Thurman be candidate
before the convention no doubt the
Ohio delegation will give him hearty
and united support, and stand by him
while he has show of success. Aside
from Mr.. Thurman, our delegation
would seek some man who could unite
the party East without splitting it
West-that is, dropping state pride,
we would seek to overthrow the Re-
publican party by such nomination,
if possible, as that fMr. Seymour"
