Rumpus in Congress.

Last week there was regular old
fashioned rumpus in the House of Rep
resentatives at Washington, of which
we give brief synopsis OH fourth page
In most of these disgraceful affairs here
tofore, there has been considerable
Southern blood, but in this one there
was nothing but the pure, unadulterat-
ed spirit of the great intelligent North
And what sounds and looks peculiarly
bad, is that of the two members engag-
ed in this row, one of them had been
candidate for the Presidency! 1t APP
pears that in the debate upon the Fund
ing Bill, Gen. Weaver of Iowa, an enc
my to the bill, gave notice beforehand
to chairman Fernando Wood that he
should use every parliamentary means
to defeat it. And it seems that he did
"speak right out in meeting" and at
the same time went everlastingly for
the Democratic party-telling of its
shortcomings and misdemeanors with
out fear or favor. This of course eXas-
perated the Democrats, who annoyed
him all they could. This running fight
kept up for some time-the situation all
the while growing hotter and hotter,
until all hands INDUCED in the most
bitter personalities. 1t is said that Mr.
Weaver behaved remarkably well, ard
held his own first-rate IN the debate,
until Mr.. Bland OF Missouri charged
him with all sorts of political meanness.
About this time he began to be little
rolled, but had not lost himself. Soon
Mr.. Sparks of Illinois branded him with
being no gentleman, either then or dur
ing the campaign. Upon this Weaver
called Sparks ga liar,n and Sparks call
ed him contemplate scoundrel and
vilalin." Weaver then rushed for Sparks,
who seized a chair for defence, when by
strenuous efforts of friends the parties
were kept apart until they could cool
off. In due season both apOlogized to
the House, when the scandal was dis
missed. SOutherners may thank their
stars for once that they did not inaugu-
rate quarrel, while these Northern
men ought to repent in sackclOth and
ashes for the disgrace they have brought
upon themselves, upon Congress, and
the country.

Change of Base.

As Tammany Hall of New York has
for long time been the index finger of
the Democratic party-so that whichev-
er way this finger pointed the party was
sure to go, it looks little significant
Just now to see this old ruling faction
attempting a change of base. Hereto
fore, in the palmy days of slavery, when
the Republican party was young and
weak, Democrats were wont to sneer
and ridicule it for changing its name,
or for resOrting to any new expedients
for fighting its battles, or to maintain
its party status. But does it not seem
now as though the boot was on the
other foot? Who is it now that finds it
a necessity to wriggle, and twist, and
anxiOusly look for more tenable ground?
The fact is, it is not the tail of DemOc-
racy that is now squirming, but the old
head itself, bobbing around to find a
more comfortable position.
1t is said that the Democracy of New
York is now split into four factions.
Here we see all the skill and diploma
cy of the party leaders brought into re-
QUESTION to set things to rights. These
men plainly see that for the future wei
fare of Democracy there must necessa-
rily be a change of base. The old tao
tics are worn threadbare-they will
never do again. AS long as this is true,
it don't matter much what Is to be the
name of the new faction in New York.
1t is enough to know, however, that as
the leading spirit of the Northern De-
mocracy has always been with Tamma-
ny, it now bids fair to continue so, in
asmuch as it is the first in the country
to spunk up and try to do something.
1t is not inactivity that is injuring the
Democratic party, but it is the follow
ing OF an old, effete, political policy.
No party can long flourish by simply
and eternally stamping in the old
tracks. History abundantly testities to
this. The party of progress is the one
that steps beyond all the rest and in
Vites the world to follow. Democracy
must either take this new course, OF
continue to kick against the pricks,
whereby it will he more injured than
anybody Else. When, therefore, Dem
ocrats come to that, that they feel il
best to make change of base. as il
now looks as though they were doing
then we see in the operation the first
sign of their future success.

| finally forget them entirely. 1t has be-
come customary to cOnsign these I'M
fortunates to the care of parties who
see 50 much of this trouble, that they
eventually lose all true feeling and
sympathy. Now of all persons in the
world the insane need the tenderest
and most sympathetic treatment.
Our attention has been more espe-
cially called to this subject, by report
recently made by DR.. Wilbur to the Ma
tional Association for the Protection of
of these insane persons in the United
States is not less than fifty thousand,
and that neglect and abuse were only
too light temrs to characterize the treat
ment of them DR.. Beard of New York,
an eminent practitioner and scientific
man, has visited the principal asylums
of Europe, and he says that Great Bri-
tain is ahead of the world in the man
agement of the insane, and Germany
next. He also says that the close re-
straint so much in vogue in this cOun-
try, is now but little practiced there; ;
that the asylums there, especially in
Scotland, are more like gentlemen's res
licences, and less like prisons. DR.. Sc
gum of New York declares that only
one asylum in this country has ever
fairly tried the nOnrestraint system,
and that one has become eminently sue
cessful.
DR.. Wilbur also declares, that in his
visits to England and Ireland four years
ago, he saw but a few cases, and he in
quired particularly for them, where alb
sOlute restraint was necessary. In all
these places the great lever of power
was that of the utmost kindness, love,
and patience. TO us this looks like
common sense, and we wish the people
of this country could be induced to
give the matter better consideration,
and then act with the refined humanity
of the age. Kindness and love was the
doctrine of our Savior, and who shall
say lie was not right?

A Coming Railroad War.

A dispatch from Concord, N. H., re-
ports a strong probability that there
will soon be inaugurated in that state
one of the most important railway con-
tests that ever occurred in New En-
gland. 1t will involve the old issues of
connecting lines of road from Chicago
to Boston via Central Vermont, avoid
ing Concord. The Central Vermont is
backed up by the Grand Trunk and
chiefly opposed by the Northern rail-
road of New Hampshire and the Con-
neeticut River road.
