General Grant said in his speech at War ren, Ohio: ''They (Southerners) want to break away from slavery which binds them to party. When this is started the solid South will go down as ku- -kluxism did. When the break comes you will be astonished to find how many of our southern friends have for long time been in favor of it. :" And he added: ''This desirable condition can only be obtained by the continued defeat of the Democratic party"
 Since General Grant thus spoke much has come to light which shows that he correctly judged the situation, and especially since the Indiana election has it been made plain that a Republican victory in November will be the best thing that can happen to the South and to the whole country. Such reports cor respondent of the New York IInses makes concerning the state of feeling among south ern Democrats are coming from all rarts of the South. He writes that the masses of southern Democracy are demoralized beyond description. They see themselves as far away from the possession of the government as they were in 1s61- They believe that they must again give up all hope of occupying the much-longed-for postoffices and custom houses, and they are very sad Still another thing troubles them. They fear that they are about to be forever deprived of the undue political power which they now possess They are fully aware of the fact that by sup pressing the votes of the freedmen they exert

twice the influence which is enjoyed by citi-
 zens of any other part of the country, and
 they look for some enactment which shall
 curtail their power, protect the colored men,
 and make every vote in every State in the Union count for one and no more or less.
 Exactly how this result is to be brought about they do not pretend to know, but they are confident that, with the Republicans in con- trol of the White House and both houses of Congress, as they soon likely to be, some law will be enacted which will put an end to the solid South. While the masses of the
 people are vexing themselves with thoughts of this kind, however, the shrewdest polite ians in the South have sense enough to see that the election of Garfield and Arthur will, in itself, be far more effectual in
 breaking up the unnatural and unlawful po- litical combination referred to than any 1egis- 1ative enactment could be. 'The South, '' says the correspondent, Twill make one more solid effort to gain the executive chair, but with the defeat of Hancock will end the union of the Bourbon, leaguers. There are to-day thousands of men in all the southern States who declare, fully meaning what they say, that after Hancock they will vote for no oth- CT Democrat for President. They are tired of being beaten. They have tried everything suggested to them by their leadersand failed. They were beaten under Mcclellan, Demo- crat, then under Seymour, a Democrat; Gree
 ley they took for mask. Their disguise was seen through, and again they were defeated.
 Their champion trickster was beaten four
 years ago, and now the bulky Union soldier
 whom they have put forward as blind is not
 able to h'de the purposes of those who are
 behind him. Once more defeat stares the
 White League in the face. After it comes
 they will fight no more. To-day they are
 only held together by the hope of sharing in
 the spells of victory Still, they are more
 than ready to abandon the flag under which
 they begin to see there is no victory to be
 won The election of Garfield and Arthur
 will break the solid South.' D
 Such a result is well worth the work and vote of every true patriot. Until the solid South is broken up we shall have sectional
 which all good men deplore and would like to see removed With the breaking mp of the
 solid South the victory gained by the Union armies will be something more than it has been When the solid South is broken up great advance will be made toward ''full
 which this best of governments is not safe.
 For these reasons and others the Democratic party must and will be beaten.

NnW AVID THEN.

The savage and entirely unwarranted at. tack made upon Mayor Bigelow's character by one of the Democratic papers of this city defeats its own object by it's excess. It has done more to help Mir. Bigelow than to hurt him, and has reused his friends to still more vigorous efforts in his behalf
 This same paper in announcing MT. Bige- lows election to the Legislature said ''His reputation as an honest, whole-souled, char. itable man, gained for him the ready sympa- thy of the masses, and in the full tide of Dem ocratic success he succeeded in worsting his opponents by majority which is stupen- dous, considering the circumstances. We be- lieve Mir. Bigelow can be relied on to sustain all just measures in the Legislature" Again, when he was nominated for Mayor it said ot him: 'SHe is good man." and after his election expressed confidence in his honesty and integrity.
 Now that Mir. Bigelow is likely to be elect ed governor and thus defeat the Democratic plans, we are told that ''When it comes to hypocrisy, deceit and damagogism there is nc man who can compete with" him. A more outrageous attack does not disgrace the his tory of politics in Connecticut

We print this morning on this page con- sideration of some of the free trade theories and arguments which Professor Sumner has laid before the readers of the Register with so much positiveness.

The beneficial effect of reciprocity treaties on American commerce cannot be better shown than by reference to the result of the treaty between the United States and the Hawaiian Islands. Twenty-four vessels, sailors and steamers, have been built in the State of California alone, since the treaty went into operation. The value of these vessels was $365, 1000, and they have an ag- gregate tonnage of ,, s61 tons. Besides these are twenty-one sailing vessels regularly em- ployed between the port of San Francisco and Hawaii, as well as a large number which sail direct from northern ports. Of these twenty-one vessels eighteen are American built and American register. Their aggre- gate tonnage is 6,582 tons The arrivals and departures from San Francisco for the year 1875 were ninety-fve vessels, and the num- Der has been steadily increasing from year to year, until in the nine months of 1880 ending Sept. 30, one hundred and sixty vessels ar rived and departed from that port in the Hawaiian trade This is cited as the only instance where American tonnage has in creased 100 per cent. since 1875.

An Obstinate Court Physician.

On the return of King William. from
Holland, in 1899, says the London Quar-.
terty ReuieaO, he sent for Radcliffe, and,
showing him his swollen ankles, while
the rest of his body was emacisted, said :
"What think you of theseH" " Why,
truly" replied Radcliffe, g would not
have your majesty's two legs for your
three Kingdoms" which freedom cost
him the king favor, and no intercession
could ever recover it. When Anne
came to the throne, the Earl of Gcdol-
phin endeavored in vain to reinstate
Radcliffe as first physician but the
queen would not be prevailed on, alleg.
ing that Radcliffe would send her word,
as he had done before, that her all
ments were nothing bu! the vspors."
The queen, however, sent for him in his
last illness, when he answered "that he
had taken physic and coud nc. come"
The queen died on the first of August,

If ladies sin against propriety in taking
the initiative, they can hardly be blamed
for bringing a shilly-shallyine or over
bashful lover to the point when 4 good
opportunity presents itself. Such an
opportunity sufficed to end what has
been somewhat tedious courtship.
The young man, paying his usual even
ing visit, asked his lady love how she
got along with her cooking: Nicely"
replied she; "Pm improving wonderful
ly, and make splendid cake now" "Can

rushing on his fate. "Whst kind do

1t is needless to say that the offer was

Level Headed ADVICE

While sleep is the season fer all
natures" it Is injurious the hours of
rest For farmers and those who live
in localities where people can retire at
s or o'clock in the evening, the old
notion about early rising is still sp-
propriate. But he who is kept up till
10 or IL or twelve o'clock, then rises at
Dor 8, because of the teaching of some
old ditty about "early to rise" is com
uniting n sin against his own soul
There is not one man in ten thousand
who can afford to do without seven or
eight hours sleep. All the stuff written
about great men who sleep only three
or four hours a night is apocryphsl.
They have been put on such small
allowances occasionally and prospered !;
but nc man mas ever yet kept healthy in
body and mind for number of years
with less than seven hours sleep. If
you can set to bed early, then rise early
If you cannot get 20 bed till late, then
rise late. 1t may be rs proper for ono
man 10 rise at Ms it is for another To

thirty minutes before your public
