A SDp Incident.

There was an incident Of the
landing Of the French ,actrsss at New
York which had a certain curious
nese OF contrast. As the passengers
gathered near the gang-plank Of the
Amerique, ali in that mortal dread
Of spending another moment on
board which characterizes equally
the survivors OF ali ocean voyage or
the passers over ferry-Miss Bern
hardt and her numerous managers
were foremost, and among the rest
stood an aged woman, dressed ,
says the observant reporter, "plainly
and almost commonly. There was
bad rent IN her ample cloak. Her
face was iurrowed and her hair was
streaked with white. TLis was the
widow OF Abraham Lincoln" She
had come alone across the Atlantic,
from Southern France, where che
had lived for four years pest. A
nephew met her at quarantine, out
there were no friends around her,
and no one to pay her attention.
On the wharf the Bsrnhardt's car
rlage was long time getting
through the gaping crowd, and
while she waited every body else
waited-indeed. most of them want
&c to wait, and will stir up the envy
OF their various circles all the SC ason
with illusions to 'ths time I went
down Ito meet Berubsrdt.," But
Mrs. Lincoln. with her nephew.
moved toward the gate. A police
man vigilaDtly touched her on th4
shoulder and babe her ctand back
and back she stepped, while all the
people there were jammed aside to
let Miss Bernhardt's carriage draw
up. When she had relieved the
ferry -house Of her presence. the
widow Of Abraham Lincoln wac al
10 wed to pass.

A PROMINENT Republican OF New
York, In a recent interview, said
that the arraignmant wa, that in
the event Of the succass Of the Re-
publicans, the electors would vote
Tor Grant for Presideut and Garfield
for Vice President. We do not
know anything about this, nor do
we suppose it is true, for no matter
how much the leaders OF the Repub-
lican party may want to do this,
they would in all probability fear
that public sentiment would not
scquesce in 30 bold a move. 1t
seems to us, however, that there
would not be much said about it,
for Gen. Grant is much more man
ly representative Republican than
Garfield.

At this writing, Tbursdsy morn
ing, the latest returns Indicate that
Mr. Garfield is elected

il is useless TO discuss how this
unexpected result wss brought
about, and indeed the returns are
not now sufficiently foil 10 show Just
how We stand, farther than to know
thst the Republicans have elected
Garfield ct least they haze carri-

Whether this means the election
Of Garfield OF Grant is Q moated

DEMOCRATS who have done their
duty in this contest have the proud
satisfaction of having their skirts
clean, no matter what may befalI
the Republic, and We sincerely con-
graduate them, and allure them to
stand fast in the faith Of the fat h :
ers.
A majority Of our fellow citizens
have declared, in the language Of
the Republicans, Tor a "strong GOV
erDmsnt," this in eur opinion means
a government stronger than the
constitution, and stronger than the
people. II the majority are really
In favor Of this stronger govern
ment, we hope they may be accom-
modatsd, We have supposed they
were misled and that they did not
understand the claims of the now
successful party, but If thay have
understood those claims, and have
with their eyes open voted for it,
1t would perhaps be undemocratic
for US to say they aught not to have
1t, for we believe that under and by
virtue Of the constitution a majority
must rule, and if this course leads
as it seems to US it mupt, to the
Empire of Ulysses l. we, with all
other Democrats, will have the sat
i1facticn of having done our duty,
both IN warning the people of the
danger and Of prot esting against it
by cur ballots. we hope however,
that our apprehension will be
groundless.

a SPECIAL session Of the Lesisla-
ture ought to be called at once by
the Governor to provide some laws
made necessary by the adoption Of
the Constitutional amendment.
Neither Sheriff., Prosecuting At
torneys, Assessor or Constables can
qualify or give bond as required by
law. as the County Court, in W hicb
tie bonds are given and approved
is out Of existence, Unless some
action is at once taken there will be
an indefinite interregnum in the en-
tire police regulations of our State.

Now that the election is over, an
falsehoods will no longer help the
Republican cause, perhaps the Re-
publican readers of Republican
journals will find out that Goyerno,
Jackson's majority over Mr.. Stur-
.Siss was over $4,000, a gain Of over
three thousand for the Democracy
and not loss, as has been 80 per-
.sistently claimed.

1T will be seen by the table Of
election returns that the Democratic
OF this county held their own, and
that Judge Hoge run a little ahead
of his ticket, this is very compli-
msntsry to him, for he is 80 little
known in the county that it must
be upon the ground Of his acknowl-
edged ability, rather thap personal
popularity.

Now that the election is over and
Democratic papers will not, in the
estimation Of Republican Pcstmas-
tsrs, be productive OF immediate
misohief, We hope the ARGUS will be
allowed to pass through the mails as
other mail matter, and when it ar
rives at the Office he delivered upon
demand. This would seem to be a
modest request, but it has often
been denied during the last two
months.

That interest in religious subjects
10 now active and strong is shown.
among other things, by the great
fertility of Germany, the home OF
infdelity, in the production OF
theological works. Out of l4,l79
works produced IN Germany during
1879, no lees than 1901 were de-
voted to theology. Only two other
subjects were more written about.
They were pedagogy, or the science
ofsohool teaching. and Jurisprudence.
Nearly twice as many works were
written on theology as OIL the natural
sciences.
