A Fragrant Breath and Pearly
Taath

Are easily obtained by cleansing your
teeth daily with that justly popular
dentifrice, SOZODONT. Composed
of rare antiseptic herbs, it imparts
whiteness to the teeth, delicious
aroma to the breath, and preserves
intact, from youth to old age, the
teeth. Acidity of the stomach will
destroy the strongest teeth unless
its effects are counterscIed With
SOZODONT, and this pure tooth
wash protects the dental surfaces by
removing every impurity that adheres
to them. Ask your druggist for
SOZODONT.

country, and one that will foreshadow the
mixed military and civil rulershlp they pro-
pose for him hereafter; and 1t Is these who,
making HAYES their mouthpiece, push the
Captaincy-G General with all that the name
implies.
1t may be said that HAYES contemplated
only an appointment for GRANT on the re-
tired list. Such Is not his language. Ho
specially asks tho creation OF new grade
In tho army itself; and in recommending
that there should be attached to the Office
equitable provisions relating to tho com
pcnsation, retirement, and other details,
he merely recommended provisions that at
tach to every existing grade on the active
list.
But what would It matter whether GRANT
wero Captain-Goneral active or retired
The grade itself would outrank any other
and officers on the retired list are always
assignable to duty. On the supposition OF q
league between the coming President, GAR
FIELD, and the GRANT managers, the grade
of Captain-General on the retired list would
be as available for any purposes they may
have as that Of tho same grade on the active
list.
Active or retired, we want no Captain
General in this country.

or collected in all parts Of the kingdom by
the agents OF the association, form eompo-
nents Of the mass of matter regularly for

Of the chief provincial journals maintains
for this specific purpose at least one member
OF its editorial staff in the metropolis Tho
London correspondence OF the Manchester
Guardian Is an example of the best work
done in this direction, and 1t not infre-
quently anticipates much that appears In
tho London press. The Western Morning
Ne,cs, printed at Plymouth, has also long
been noted for its London correspondence, a
great quantity OF which appears every day.
The Newcastle Chronicle, TO which we re-
ferrcd above, maintains two London offices,
one as the headquarters Of Its special tele-
graphic wire, tho other rs city Office Tor
commercial intelligence. Tho Scotsman and
Glasgow Ne,Us are both printed on Walter
presses. like those used in the Times olllce,
and the second journal has two private
wires to London. besides special arrange
mcnts with the railway companies. The
North British Daily Mail, also Glasgow
journal, was for long time the only sheet
in the world printed on web machine. by
which paper is not only printed on both
sides and cut by single operation, but also
folded, and delivered ready for sale at the
rate OF about 5000 copies per hour.
1t Is clear that the best provincial jour
nails in Great Britain are conducted with ex-
traordnary energy, and that their ample
telegraphic and general arrangements en-
able them to keep pace with their most pro-
gressive London contemporaries in the mat
ter of news. 1t Is also acknowledged by the
Quarterly that the substance, form, and tone
of their political writing are often admira-
ble and that their literary contents are OF n
creditable, IL not OF high, order. In view
OF such resources and c1ertions, we can un-
derstand how the provincial press should
have managed to grasp large and rapidly
expanding influence. The fact remains that
men accustomed to work on London news
papers do not find provincial journalism by
any means to their taste. Mr.. JAMES HAN
NAY who was invited to conduct the Edin-
| burgh COWdnt, has given in Temple Bar a
| satirical account OF his adventures, and Mr.
| HENRY KINGSLEY, after a short experience
threw up the editorship Of another Scotch
newspaper, although tempted by the offer OF
a salary considerably in excess Of that

divisions, for "the influence OF modern
philosophical speculation and Of modern
criticism has been as yet comparatively
little felt In the American Church, Mt least
outside Of some OF the New England States.
In the ordinary course OF events 1t could
not long be unfelt, and 1t is to be feared that
under the pressure OF the perplexities which
1t must produce, other divisions will be
caused" In his opinion the forces tending
toward division are at least as powerful rs
the unitve forces in operation.
Undoubtedly the facts Justify his fears.
The yeast OF inhdelity Is working In our
churches far more than appears on the
surface. Tho great effort of all tho ortho-
dox denominations is to keep its effects from
observation. Clerical timldity prevents the
utterance Of doubts, and yet they are pre-
vailng among the clergy and lalty both,
and the timo for the outbreak Of unbe-
lief cannot long be put OFF. What Prof.
BRUCE calls modern philosophical specula-
tion and modern criticism Is undermining
and honeycombing orthodox theology 1t
has made itself felt to far greater degree
in our churches than Prof. BRUCE was able
to discover; and certainly his prediction
that its effect must soon appear unmis-
takably Is correct forecast.
The orthodox councils may be self-satls-
fled and boastful on the surface, but many OF
their delegates are really agitatcd by doubt
and paralyzed by indecision. Indications OF
the inevitable break up OF this apparent
harmony multiply. The spread OF infidelity
in the Church itself is alarming.

An EXPLANATIONS.

Mr.. JAMES BYARs OF Covington, Tennessee,
writes to inquire the precise meaning Of the
untrammelled initiative Of the individual
Citizen" which THE SUN has repeatedly de-
clared to be q matter Of fundamental politi-
cal principle.
1t relates to the question OF more or less in
reference by Government in the affairs Of
men. In highly centralized country the
Government interferes a great deal; In q
truly republican country it interfercs hardly
at all no more, indeed, than is absolutely
necessary to maintain order and enforce law.
The initiative OF the individual citizen is
untrammelled where he can undertake and
carry on any business Of any sort, or any ac-
tion, political, social, literary, commercial, or
Industrial, without being interfered with. or
controlled, or hindered by the Government.
This is what we contend for. Up to the time
Of the civil war this was the great charac-
teristic OF American institutions and Amer-
can self-government. Since then there has
been great falling off in this respect. The
Government has interiered great deal
more than ever before. The initiative OF the
Individual citizen, his power to undertake,
initiate, and execute any sort Of enterprise,
has been trammelled and diminished. The
progress OF the country and the spread OF
democratic republican institutions gener-
ally have been checked thereby.
1t is another way OF saying the best gov.
ernment is that which governs least.

A Rainbow Set in the Sky Of the De-
mocracy.

New York drew q long breath and OK
perienced feeling OF relief that the heavy
nightmare which had brooded over the city
was gone. And, 10, in the sky OF the De-
mocracy new rainbow OF Hope is set!
We have entertained no i'll will and feeling
OF spite against Mr.. KELLY; and we indulge
In no petty spirit Of exultation over his
defeat.
But freemen Of whatever political COM
plexion and all freedom-loving men, 1t
seems to us, have good reason to rejoice
that the arbitrary, one-man power which
lorded IL over the Democracy OF this city
and this State has been crushed. Whatever
methods were used to accomplish Mr.
KKLLY's sdiscomature-and of these we know
nothing whatever-they could never have
proved efficient but for tho strong current
OF popular sentiment which had set in
against Mr.. KELLY's diotation.
Now let us hear no more OF this hall or
that hall, OF Tammany Hall or any other /;
but only OF Democracy, a true, national,
Jeffersonian Democracy, free from divi-
sions, free from dictators, free from men
who sell it out at elections.
Mr.. KELLY defeated Gov. ROBINSON.
Mr.. KELLY defeated the denomination OF
Gov. T1LDEN, and in that way prepared for
the defeat of the national Democracy. And
finally, when the election came on, he de-
feated the very candidate, a true and unex-
ceptionable man, whose nomination he had
promoted.
What is his reward
Ho Is now defeated himself. The NUM-
cipal authority which he sought to clutch
has evaded his grasp.
We indulge in no personal exultation at
his overthrow; but the manner in which
the poisoned chalice has been commended
to his own lips is instructive.

No Captain-Generai for America.

II HAYEs's proposition to confer upon Gen.
GRANT title made odious by its association
with the suppression OF liberty in Cuba
could safely be regarded as merely one
more instance of his gift at laundering, it
would not be worth discussion.
or course, even taking HAYEs's own sup
position that there exists passionate pop
ular longing to confer upon GRANT renewed
military rank and emoluments, his plan for
giving expression to that longing would still
show total want Of tact. For the name he
proposes for the new Office would still be in
the worst possible taste; and an act of pop
ular homage, designed to be gracious and
grateful. should at least be performed grace
fully.
But the characteristic OF HAYEs's proposi-
tion Is not want OF tact; nor Is there any
evidence in it OF bungling. The grade of
Captain General, though familiar to our
people to-day only through the Spanish
command in Cuba, Is a very old one, and
historic in other services as we'll as the
Spanish. The French still have Captain
General OF subsistence; and in the English
service, down to the time OF MARLBOROUGH,
the title OF Captain General was the true
and technical one to denote the commander
in-chief Thus it might at first appear that
to create Captaincy General would be re-
sorting to the earlier military practice OF
the service on which our own military fabric
Is chiefly based.
But the rank Of Captuln-General, wher-
ever it subsists or Is on occasion revived
In the British service to-day is always one

THADDEUs STEVENS was buried In the
graveyard for colored people at Lancas-
ter. He declined to lay his bones with those
who were too proud to associate themselves
even in death with the race whose sufferings
had excited his sympathy. In his public
conduct, in his domestic life, and in all his
testamentary arrangements, he made clear
his detestation Of the distinction which
society had always maintained.
STEVENS was certainly the great COM
moner of the war period. He was for a
while tho House OF Representatives: its
action lay in his voice. Opposition wilted
before his strong will. Weaker men, and
sometimes more conscientious men, covered
beneath his lash, and were driven into
measures they would fain have escaped.
Gen. GARFIELD, for instance, did not be-
lcve In the constitutionalty of the recon-
struction laws; he had, indeed, demon
strated their unconstitutonality in the
Supreme Court; but he voted for them
under STEvENss stern command, as obe-
diently as If it had been high
treason to have an opinion OF his
own. STEVENS tolerated mo nonsense"
as he called it. When member offended
him, or was slack in his service, which he
called the service of the party, no had no
hesitation in writing to the gentlemans
constituents that he had no further use for
him, and they had better keep him at home
He never pretended that he thought the re-
construction laws constitutional. On the
contrary, he candidly stated his opinion
that they were entirely "outside the Con-
stitution," and as candidly expressed his
sovereign contempt for the intellect of any
man who supposed they were inside. His
doctrine of political necessity covered the
case. He had no notion of pausing to con-
slider matters OF mere legal right when the
interests he had in charge required him to
go ahead.
With much OF tho moral coarseness OF
DANToH, he had many of tho high mental
qualities of MIRABEAU. He was one OF the
greatest of revolutionary leaders He rode
the storm, and rode it for purpose There
was time when Mr.. LINCoLN's power was
not comparable to the actual power welded
by STEVENS. No other man in American
history has ever occupied the singular posi-
tion which courage, genius, and stern con-
viction gave him.
The story OF Mr. STEvENSS life Is also
closely interviewer with the most interest
ing chapters in the history of Pennsylvania.
With the common school system, the public
works, and the State politics OF a by-gone
age, his name is inscparably connected. On
the whole, THApDKUs SrEvENss biography,
if executed with frankness and courage
similar to his own, would be one OF the
most interesting and instructive biog-
raphics ever written. Mr.. EDWARD Mo
PHERsoN is his literary executor, and the
| public expectation has more than once been
| aroused by announcements that he had the
| work in hand. The time has arrived for a
candid and dispassiOnate review of the po-
| litical conduct of the group Of anti-siavery
| leaders, of whom Mr.. SrRvESs was the most
| powerful and for time the most con-
| spicuous; and it is to be hoped that his ap-
pointed biographer will not longer withhold
the materials for proper Judgment.

The Methodists, like the Baptists, arc
spending large sums Of money annually in try
ing to convert Europe to their faith. Their
Missionary Committee. at its recent session
in this city, appropriated over sGS,O00 for
missions in Germany, Sweden. Norway. and
Denmark. Some Of the Western mombers
urged that the sums voted were too large. and
that moro attention should be given to domestic
missions in the West where money would go
much further than in Europe. And certainly
common sense seems to be on their side. Ger
many and the scandinavian countries arc send
ing to the Wost thousands of immigrants an
nunlly, and. instead OF forwarding money for
their conversion across the ocean, the sums
might DO far moro proftably spent on them
after their arrival. Moreover II the Methodists
