COMMUNICATIONS.
Crowding the rIourners.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL AND COURIER:
 It is no wonder good Dr. Porter reproved the boys for their mirth on Wednesday even- ing. It was unseemly, indecorous and insult ing. The procession when it came along by the college, either because the shades of the old patriots who shouldered their muskets to save the country that heparty the procession represented has labored to ruin were thick along the path, or that the places where Democratic spirits are vended were fewer along this part of the route, or because the evening was chilly, or because churches are so thick about there, or Ohio and Indiana
 were so heavy to carry around, or the Divin- ity Hall, Peabody Museum, Art Gallery, etc., were so redolent of the sacredness of liberty and intelligence, or because the second of November is already looking like an open grave to the Hancock movement (to say the least), the procession was very solemn in deed. Mir. Editor, it was so like a funeral the mirth of the boys jared on my nerves, and I'm glad Dr. Porter has tried to check such conduct It seemed very much out of taste to make such noises when setch pro- cession was passing.

A Plen for ConsistencY.

To the Editor of the JOURNAL COURIER:
 Can you inform me what Hobart B. Bige- low has done during the last two years to for felt the eulogistic commendation which he received from the Democratic organ, the Register, and the then fiery Greenback organ in the mayoralty campaign of only two years ago? Pretended Democrats are sought after to preside over Democratic meetings, and some of them have already received Democratic nominations who voted for this man in 1878 in preference to supporting the regular nominations of the party to which they claimed allegiance. Has Mir. Bigelow pursued any different methods in this cam paign from others that he should be stigma tized and slandered? I fail to see any. It affords me sincere pleasure in this canvass to see reminder of these circumstances brought to the attention of the public, having always been a consistent supporter of the Demo- cratic party and never guilty of supporting Mir. Bigelow in the past and don't propose to do so in the future, but believing that

The Nation contains this gratifying bit of news: ''We are able to announce that active steps are being taken for reorganization of the old Civil Service Reform Association. We believe the work will be completed and the result announced immediately after the elec- tion, and those who have already expressed their willingness to contribute money re- ceive notice personally of the readiness of the society to receive it. AS we understand it, no direct political action or influence by the society is contemplated or indeed would be possible on the part of a non-partisan l body. It will confine itself to efforts to create public opinion favorable to such a change in the administrative machinery of the government as will take the subordinate l offices out of politics."

It is stated that the English government has resolved to push to the utmost it's en- deavor to control the trouble in Ireland by legal proceedings against the men promi- nently identified with the Land League move ment. Fifteen persons are named as the of- lenders who are to be immediately arrested on the charge of conspiracy, and six of these persons are members of Parliament, repre- senting Irish constituencies. MT. Parnell' s name is of course at the head of the list. It is also stated that the government will have the cases tried in England if this is legally possible, as it is said to be. This is very important step.

Those who are accusing Republican en- ployers of bulldozing their workmen will find something to their advantage in the following sensible words from the Boston Herotd AS a rule, the American employers of labor are not given to bulldozing tactics of this sort, and American workingmen are not healthful subjects upon which to attempt coercive in huence in respect to the ballot. Especially is this true in times of prosperous activity like the present With manufactories of nearly
 all kinds pressed to their utmost capacity many of them with orders ahead that will
 keep them humming for six months or year the workmen know that they are in no danger of discharge for exercising their right to vote as they please. If Republican mill master should see fit to turn of capable yorkmen for this cause, there are plenty of Democrats or purely business bosses who 1 would be glad to obtain their services No- 1 body who knows how to work, and IS willing | to work, need now remain idle. If man
 who employs 300 or l ,000 hands really feels
 that his interest, which, in this sense, is that
 of his workmen also, requires continuation of the present governmental status we do
 not know that there is any requirement that he should keep his opinion to himself. Ills
 vorkmen are presumably as capable of un- 1 standing their interests as he is of knowing 1 his own. and the same motive may influence
 them both, without dictation on the one side | or submission on the other.
