The Nep York Sun humorously alludes
to the reconciliation between Senator
Wallace aud Speaker Randall, in the Penn
sylvania Democratic Convention, last week
as ian exuberant love feast
Mr.. Randall exclaimed, ''This is the hap.
piest moment of my political life, and Mr.,
Wallace said he rejoieed, and Mr.. Dill said
il was the happiest moment Of has life too, and
everybody shook hands, and the musicians
struck up "we're a band Of brothers"
Now let John Kelly and Samuel J
Tilden kiss and make up, also. Wouldn't
the millennium be that much nearerg

One Of the resolutions OF the late Ohio
Republican Presidential Convention de-
clarcs it to be duty Of the General Govern
ment to take the work of education into
its own hands. This would be another
long stride in the direction of centraliza-
ton, and would result in putting white aud
black children Unfortunately into the
same schools. We thought this scheme
had been abandoned, after its failure 10
Congress in 1874, when it was brought
forward by the Republicans in what was
called the Civil Rights Bill But, it seems
they never viii abandon the project as long
as there is any hope Of accomplishment. Il
is renewed, from time to time, with a to
uacity Of purpose which shows that it is
vital principle Of the Republican part,
which they yet mean to engrah upon thu
policy of the Government, if they can
The most effectual way Of preventing suel
cOnsummation is for the people to vot'
the Republican party out Of power, il
every branch of the Government, Exeeu
tive, Legislative and Judicial.

!. D@The dwelling house of Judge

about eleven o'clock, and but for the
timely arrival or the engines and the aid
of the citizens, would have burned to
the ground, as il was the lower portion
of the building was badly scorched. The
FIRE was the work Of some person who
evidently hold q bitter, grudge against
the Judge and his family, as this is the
tifth effort within The last ten months to
render them homeless. The incendiary
managed to effect an entrance into the
cellar, where large pile Of OLD shingles
were stored, which once Ignited made .

to the joists end flooring above The
smoke from the burning kiBdliDg was

difficulty that Mrs. Gear, the aged moth

burning building. The bolt was remoy-
ed from the pump hsndle, thereby rem
dering it useless. The damage to the
house from fire and water will probably

An Important Resolution

To the pensioners of the country was
adopted by the House to-day, creating
a special Committee of seven members,
which will be announced Tomorrow, to
investigate the cause in the delay of tie
payment Of original pensions, as well IS
the arrears CT pensions and back pay
due Ex- Union soldiers and their heirs.
The complaint has been grievons that
the Pension Bureau is working upon
the adjudication of pension claims with
an aggravating slowness, and the resolu'
ton adopted to-day also directs the
Committee to recommend such legisla-
lions as will expedite payments. 1t is
sweeping in its character. and embowers
the Committee to review even claims
which have been rejected, and upon
what flimsy evidence fraudulent claims
have been paid. General Garfield tried
to defeat the proposition By seeking to
have action delayed for week, but il
was passed by more than the necessary
two- thirds vote repaired to suspend The
