L4WTERS AND STITESuEN.

Senator Carpenter seems to be both amused
and indignant with Mr.. Blaine because that
gentleman, in discussing measure of legisla-
ton, abandons the mundane methods Of law
yers, and scars aloft in the pure ether of states
manship. At least a score Of times, in his speech
on Monday, Mr.. Carpenter took occasion to
remind the Senate that he was lawyer of long
experience at the bar, and that Mr.. Blaine was
not and he urged in support of his arguments
that they were reasonings such as lawyers used,
while his opponent spoke only as a statesman.
We respect the law; We have high appfecia-
ton of the importance of that profession in
the work of legislation; and yet Mr.. Carpenters
legal training did not save him from several
great mistakes in the debate on Monday it did
not prevent his denOunCing as forgery letter
from Caleb Gushing which was shown to be
genuine; it did not enable him to avoid the
blunder of citing authorities On the wrong side.
And there are several chapters in the story of
Mr. Carpenters public career which might lead
the unchartable to believe that the "Labits Of
@lawyersn are not always preferable to the
habits of statesmen.
Mr.. Carpenter, for instance, was the author of
the celebrated Louisiana report some years ago,
which denounced the action of Judge Durell
and declared against the validity Of the Kellogg
Government yet while this controversy was
nendine in Congress he took money to sustain
the other side III the Supreme Court, and wrote
his historic letter, /" Dear Kellogg l am desper-
" ately short. Can't you send me $1,000i" We
are not disposed to find fault with him for ask
ing pay for his legal services; we only suggest
that it must have been announcement and perplcx-
ing to his constituents to hear him arguing for
Kellogg in Court as lawyer and against him
in the Senate rs a statesman and it may pos
sibly have occurred to the Senator himself to
wonder in which capacity principally he had
gone to Washington. The extensive and varied
experience of Mr.. Carpenter in connection with
Louisiana affairs possibly suggested his employ
ment as one Of the Democratic counsel before
the Electoral Commission. There at any rate
he appeared, charged particularly with the
Louisiana branch of the case; and he argued,
as lawyer, in favor of counting in Mr.. Tilden
upon technical grounds, although as a Rcpub-
lcan statesman we must assume that he would
have considered the success of his plea great
national disaster.
We repeat that Mr.. Carpenter has doubtless
satisfied his conscience and his sense Of profess
sional propriety in these transactions and we
do not purpose 10 quarrel with him about them.
But they are calculated to produce an impress
s:on ON the common mind that Senator who
scars into the pure ether of craftsmanship may
sometimes be a safer legislator than one who
nractises in the Senate exclusively after the
manner of LAWYERS.

NJ. Adolphe Fischer the Belgian violoncellist, gave
q concert last night in the Steinways small hall, in
which he had the assistance of Nine. Carreno, Miss
Kleber ard Messrs. Werner, Bareither and
Quicken. His selections, which were varied. were
made with excellent judgment, and afforded HIM
ample opportunity to display his exceptional DOW
ers He is one Of the strongest viOlOncelliss that
have visited this country Of late years. His facility
in rapid passages is extraordinary his information IL
almost always faultless and his double stop
ping is remarkably accurate. In canta-
bile playing he has a broad style, and
a rich, full tone. free from the excessive
vibrato which mars the work of so many viOlOncel.
lists. Throughout last evening his performance
was marked by excellent taste, Intelligence. sent-
ment, and, when it was called for. great brill
fancy Of execution: He played a z charming RG-
cal" by Schubert and two .. compositions Of
loncelO iriOs, and an Introduction and POlonase
by Chopin for piano and cello, with Mime. Carreno.
The performance of this last number was uncom-

THE FATE or IN AGIT1 TOR.

Mr.. Denis Kearney is in the House of COTec-
tion. The Sand Lots which know him so well
will know him no more for at least six months.
His speeches during that time will be of the
briefcst description, and not in the least remark
able for violence or vituperatiOn. We have no
desire to offer the least indignity to a man when
he is down, and Mr. Denis Kearney is decidedly
down, with but slight prospect of getting up
again. lie departed for Jail without any demon
stration whatever on the part of the pOpulace.
1t really looks as if his followers were tired Of
him and glad to get rid Of him. Not one of
them came forward to shake his hand. There
is q moral in 1t which those whose trade isagita-
ton ought for their own sake to heed.
There is lesson which demagOgues Of the
Kearrey stripe never learn. A designing man,
with q vOluble tongue and with tact in stirring
up strife, finds certain class with grievance

MR. TyLDEN STILL IN THE FIELD.

It does not seem good to Mr.. Tilden to with
draw from the Presidential contest, as long as
there is still counting to be done. This is the
obvious meaning of the doings of his State Con-
vention. He will have delegation devoted to
his interests. Hereafter he will consider
whether the chance of being counted in is good
enough to justify him in accepting nOmina-
ton. That he can get the nomination of his
party, if he desires ii, Mr.. Tilden docs not ap-
pear to doubt, and the probability has been,
from the first, that the National Democratic
Convention would nominate him, unless its
chances were especially good for electing some
body else, without fraud in the counting. The
chances for so electing any Democrat are not
good MI. Tilden is the one candidate who is
known to his party as ready to resort to the
most extreme and unscrupulOus measures in
order to succeed. He has friends who know
how to use cipher dispatches. He has friends
who can raise large sums of money at short
notice and with no pecuniaTy responsibility Of
their own, to buy needed electoral votes. It
was from his house that kilograms went sug-
costing that the duly chosen electors Of South
Carolina should be imprisoned on some bogus
pretext Of legal dispute, 30 that they could not

real or fancied, but usually the latter He gets
upon the top of cask, or, from some other eoigne
of vantage, he makes speeches. He tells bis
hearers that they are grossly wrOnged; that VINO
would be free themselves must strike the blow
that they ought to destroy the property OF rail-
way co. poratiOns; that they are so oppressed
and so downtrOdden that If they bear the dis
honor they cannot be considered as human
beings Sometimes the crowd thus simulated
content themselves with bowling, Sometimes
they 90 further and commit arson or are guilty
of malicious mischief But if at this critical mo-
ment the officers of the law take their rhetorical
leader in their grip, and march him of to jail,
il is astonishing to remark now those VINO are
fondest of him acquiesce in his punishment IN
perfect silence. He might be hanged without
arousing them to action. The Jail does not look
so pleasant to them as their chance of getting
into it increases. Not to put too fine a point
upon it, they sneak away, leaving their late
leader to don the prison uniform, to subslst
upon the prison ratiOns and to engage In the
prison toll. Mr. Kearney knows by this time
that the kind of popularity which he thought so
potent is but a poor protection against COM
mitment duly signed by the clerk of the Court.
lie may say that the people are ungrateful and
cowardly. He may regard himself as martyr.
His opinion Of human nature in general may
have been lowered at least fifty degrees. He
may stamp, and bite his lips, and talk like
Timon of Athens but the Illuminating fact re-
mains.
The moral Of the matter should be seriously
considered by the Kearneys of this country
who are still at large. 1t was settled by the ex-
Founders of the common law long ago that one
may commit a crime with his tongue, and that
he who offends through another is himself an
offender. 1t is easy for man skilled in Rarru-
lous harangue to say, "Burn! rob kill" but
if his advice be followed, the law holds that
though during these interesting processes he
may be at home in his bed, or even dead drunk
in q gin shop, he is nevertheless one OF the
incendaries, plunderers and hOmicides. Our
advice to all leaders of Kearney's kind is to take
warning from his fate. The sober, industrious,
right-minded people Of this country are tired OF
fragrant nonsense, and the drunken, the lazy and
the ugly-minded are pOweress against the con-
stable with the posse comtatus at his back
When Mr.. KeaIney comes out of prison he will
be nobody A like fate will reduce the longest
windcd and the lOudest spOuter to the same in
significant condition.

The Western wind-st0fm proves to have been
even more disastrous than the first reports rep
resented. 1t ragged over considerable Poruohs
of Missouri, Iowa, Illinois and Wisconsin, ana
developed at several points in its path iocal
tornadoes of extraordinary violence. The loss
of life was greatest at Marshfeld, Mo" where
nearly hundred persons persisted, but 1atai
casualties are reported at many other points,
When the list of the killed and wounded IS com
pleted, it will doubtless appear that the caialnlty
was as disastrous in its results to life and limb
as a battle of considerable dimensions. In the
suffering it inflicted it was far more serious
because q large proportion of the victims were
women and children, wholly unprepared to bear
the terror of fear and the sharp agony Of
crushed limbs and mangled bodies. The
worst of such calamities is that no human fore
sight can anticipate them so as to take meas
ures to avert their consequences. Buildings
could doubtless be erected strong enough to
withstand these fearful wind-tempests, but it
is not to be expected that the entire West will
build solid and expensive structures because
of the danger Oftornadoes. People who live on
the praires will doubtless go on trusting to
luck to escape the exceptional fury of the
elements until science discovers way to break
the force of an approaching storm, or Nature
ceases TO desolate the land with. such angry
displays of her power.
