l The 4dUonce has plain-spoken article on | the subject of "Jesuitism at West Point.'' It contends that ''Romanism has great deal more to do with the command of the army of the United States than is commonly supposed. | It is largely, if not chiefly, a religious ques- tion, rather, sectarian question, which is raised, although under cover, when strong op- position in army circles is made to the placing | at the head of the National Military Academy man like General Howard. A few facts will illustrate. For many years the family of Gen. eral Schofield have been ardent Roman Cath olics. Within few years the General him. self passed from High Church Episcopacy to pronounced Romanism. General Sherman may not be Roman Catholic, but his wife lovely woman and a power behind the throne-is widely known for her enthusiastic devotion to Romanism, and is a favorite of the Pope. General Sheridan, if not particu- larly deyout. is in his sympathies Catholic. Among the officers high in the staff depart ment is strong representation also of Ca tholcism. All through the war, and for years subsequently,, the Assistant Adjutant- General, who had most to do with the transfer of off cers and their assignment to their several posts, was vehement Roman Catholic
 We have frequently called the attention of our readers to the great benefits conferred by Mutual Building and Loan Associations. The second annual report of the Paterson (New Jersey) association again indicates what those benefits are. In two years it has grown to membership of 447 persons, who hold l, ,794 shares, on which monthly payments of $1 are to be made until each share amounts. to S2Oo About $35, ,OO0 has been received and lent to the members, of which $31, 13O is on unincumbered real estate, valued at the present time at $70,6 $50. The members bor- rowing on real estate have already repaid $4, 22O on their loans, in premiums and monthly dues. The first series of shares was issued in November, 1878, the second in January, 1879, and the third in January 1880. On the first series $26 per share has been paid in monthly installments, and a profit of $3.1 10 has been earned; on the sec ond series SPA per share has been paid, and 8 profit of $2.78 has been earned; on the third series SIP has been paid, and the profit has been 65 cents. Averaging the time the have earned 12.62 per cent. those of 1879 I2. 65 per cent, and those of 1880 11.16 per cent. When is such an association going to be formed in New Haven?

The question whether it is right to use corn for fuel is just now somewhat discussed in Minnesota. The supply of fuel has been short in many places, because the winter set in earlier than usual, with uncommon severi- ty, before the coal dealers had laid in their stocks, and the railroads were occupied with
 grain transportation to the extent of their capacity. The prairie farmers in that region must depend on the railroads for their wood also. Some of them have succeeded tolera- ply in burning hay, but it is at the best an unsatisfactory fuel But corn makes con venient, clean and easily managed fuel, and at Minnesota prices cheaper than wood or coal. The only objection to using it is the sentimental one that there are people in the world who would be glad of it for food.
 But so long as people can't get it, and would
 not if it were not burned, there is more sen- timent than sense in this objection. If the corn were not burned it would be more likely to be worse than wasted in making whiskey than used for making bread. It is said that
 corn enough can be raised on two or three acres of land to supply an ordinary fam fly with fuel for year, and that at the pres. ent price in Minnesota, about fifteen cents a bushel, it is cheaper than wood at eight dol lars cord The corn which will keep a farmers fires going for year would not, if sold, begin to buy coal or wood enough to take it's place.

Consistency,s a Jewel.

Mr.. Hayes vetoes the deputy marshais
bill for the reason, as nearly as we can
make it out. that the bill does not make
the deputy marshals which 1t assumes
to make. Deputy marshals Mr.. Hayes
likes. He thinks that when the United
States marshals are allowed to appoint
deputies to guard congressional cleo
tion the best thing is done that can be
done for the Republican party to which
the marshals belong. But when deputy
marshals are otherwise appointed, and In
stich way as to keep the Republican
party from getting the lions share OF
them, Mr.. Hayes is convinced that they
are not the proper creatures for the
United States to appoint as guardians OF
elections. And yet Mr.. Hayes, so he
says, is in favor of appointing officers to
SUPERVISE the electianS without regard To
party. Apparently there is contraalc'
ton here. We cannot explain; we can
not explain why Mr.. Hayes, when given
an opportunity to approve bill appoint
ING non-partisan deputy marshals, fans
to approve it, when they are just I'M
kind he wants; nor why he prefers tn
old method of appointing deputy mar
shals which ensured their being parti
sans. Mr.. Hayes is difficult man t.

sition is even more than usually Difficult
to reconcile with belief in MIR. Hayes

The DcmOcracy'S Views.

The general canvass made 10y the dele
Gates from this congressional district to
the Cincinnati convention is very salts
factory in its results. 1t is much more
valuable than the expression OF delega-
ted body of smaller numbers and less rep
rcscntativc character than those who are
represented in the expressions of opinion
which we publish. 1t is timely, because
made after the Republican nominations
and Just on the eve OF the Democratic
convention, when the party views might
be presumed to have crystallized on It's
favorite candidate, if there be any. Its
results are highly satisfactory because
they show the party here to be confident,
aggressive and determined. Moreover,
il is manifest that the Democracy are
not sticklcrs for any particular man,
but will most heartily ratify and enthu-
siasticalIy support any possible nominal
tion ut Cincinnati.
For reasons with which our readers are
familiar, public sentiment here is very
largely against the eXpediency of Mr..
Tiltlen'S denomination, and we have no
reason 10 believe that the Democracy of
this section will be confronted with the
embarrassment of his nomination. For
reasons equally well-known Mr.. Seymour
is the favorite of the party here; and
since he appears to he out of the question,
by his own volition and peremptory
declination, Mr.. Bayard seems to lead all
others in popular favor, because he seems
to most nearly combine that stainless
public record and those admirable fire
side virtues which the people find in
Iloratio Seymour. Generals Hancock
and Mcclellan have an enthusiastic SUP
port Judge Field, Judge Black, Mr..
Randall, Joel Parker, Potter or Payne
would, any of them meet with hearty ap-
probation. and even some of the strong
Western men who are urged for second
place would he gratefully received for
first.
No man goes into the Cincinnati con-
vention with anything like the strength
that either Grant or Blaine led off at
Chicago, and hence the nominee must
finally be chosen 10y general concur
renee of the friends of dozen candidates
who are likely to get votes at the start
Under these circumstances and by the
operation of the two-thirds rule, no can.
ddate can be selected who has evoked
active antagonism or whose nomination
would create any general disaffection.
The party nowhere, therefore, is in
better position to ratify the nomination
thus effected than the ten thousand
Democrats of Lancaster county, who
only ask for candidate without a stair
and platform that has no worm-eateI
timber in its construction.
