Holy Thursday in France is devoted
to what is commonly known as the
"visit to the tombs;" this implies not a
pilgrimage to the cemetries, but to the
imitation sepulchres erected by piety in
the various churches commemorative of
Christs death. There is commendable
rivalry among the several parish churches
as to which shall be first in honoring the
fete st. Roch is certainly the church
most patronized by the faithful and visit
ors; its altar contributes many ad.
vantages in the way of effect; the music
also is remarkably excellent; the cere-
mony too of the washing of the feet I"
is very interesting. In the choir chanting
of the Gloria in Excelsis, sudden stop is
made; the organ gives a few wai1ing
notes, bells toll, and both remain silent
till Easter Sunday. The bells on this
occasion are said to have gone to Rome.
Till then, the affairs are stripped Of their
ornaments and the churches display only
trappings of woe.

l was amused by the Secretary's de-
scription of the troubles a young Indian
must undergo who wants to work for his
living and tries to be a farmer. The
Government provides white man to
teach him the rudiments of his trade.
The Indians ponies are with much in
finite difficulty persuaded to wear har-
ness and pull q plough. The cornfeld is
marked out, and the young fellow is in
structed how to hold and drive. When
he is able to make few burrows unas-
sisted, the white farmer goes off to teach
some other agricultural aspirant. Then
the sisters, cousins and aunts of the in
dustrious brave come from the village
to taunt him for making squaw
of himself by doing a squaw's work,
and to offer him some of their gar
ments as his proper apparel. The chances
are that he forgets his team to make
angry retorts to their sarcastic remarks,
the ponies run away, the plough is
broken, and he abandons the field to lead
his old life, gorging himself with Gov
ernment beef as long as his weekly ra-
tions last, and going hungry the rest of
the time.

Republicans N ust submit.

New York, 3.-The Times: Careful
research into the records of the Senate
shows that it has always been the custo N
of that body, when the presiding officer
has been removed by death, or by reason
of the expiration of his term, since the
last session, to choose a President pro
tenn, before newly elected sell ators are
sworn in. This may now seem wicked
peryersion of right and justice, and there
are parties who think the republicans
should make fight for the organization
of the Senate, but the records are clear
and indisputable, and they should settle
the case. Debate over the matter will
not alter the facts of history.
Washington, "a republican sens-
torial caucus is called for Sa urdsy
morning, at 10 o'clock, to devise a plan
for organization. Democrats will meet
at the same hour, ana some compromise
is expected. Most of the democratic
senators here oppose q conpromise, and
hold that under the law and custom the
organization Of tho Senate is within DEM
ocratic control. Some democrats, how
ever. prefer, if possible, to agree quietly
In advance. 1t is stated that Peudleton
and Garland were among the latter class,
but say they expect to abide by the
caucus dictum. Both sides desire to
avoid partisan contest, but it is not i'm :
probable one may occur. The president
Of the.Senate will be so close to the Presi-
dency Of the United States, only one life
intervening, that both parties are anxious
to possess the Office, and think it is worth
a struggle.

CANADA +" AND" MEXICO.

II is unfortunate that the annexation "
of Canada, or, as We should prefer to say, its
admission into the Union some day, always
gets mixed up in discussion with the very
different question about Mexico. Part of
this confusion of ideas is bred from sinister
design. We firmly believe that the Grant
clique have still in mind the southern repub-
lie as field for their illegitimate ambition,
displayed by them so plainly in the San Do
mingo affair. These gentry do not care Whit
about Canada. There is no chance for them
there. What they want is an American de-
pendency, satrapy, in fact, which will af-
ford at the same time revival of the bygone
days Of good stealing, and a corner, an enter
ing wedge for those ideas Of personal, unre-
publican government over turbulent popu-
lation which they are anxious TO exemplily
by an imperial dynasty in the United States.
Whenever the name of Canada is started,
therefore, there is always some one TO chime
in with Mexico, as If the two things were in
separable as the north and south poles of
magnet. In reality they are SO unlike
that they are best kept apart altogether for
the sake of clearness of comprehension.
We can imagine the United States remain
ing perfectly content for ages without the
acquisition of that awkward tail TO the up.
per continent known as Mexico, as it could
without the acquisition of detached islands
like Cuba. But if any one will look at or
call TO mind the familiar map, he will see
that Canada is necessary TO the rounded and
symmetrical development of the United
States. Maine runs far up into the British
provinces Canada. West runs far down into
the Lake States to cut them apart. The
railways, the telegraphs, and the waterways
Of both parties naturally go through and
over the purely artificial lines of demarca-
tion, and are intolerably hampered by GUS
toms and other regulations, be these as lib.
eral as they may. On the Pacific Coast the
case Is II anything worse in It's elements.

SOME good friends sadly smile and ask
Why keep up the fight against the Washing
ton Gas Light Company, when there seems
no hope of a successful issue, since Congre SIS
will not act Even if we were bound to
consider the chances of ultimate success, we
should say that there is no telling what per-
sistent agitation may accomplish. The little
anti-slavery society, by irritating its foes,
brought about gigantic war that indirectly
effected the very aim 1t had in view. So we, by
pressing this subject home on the attention
of everybody, may sooner even than we ex-
pect see cataclysm that will upset the pres
ent monopoly before II has time TO make
struggle. All that is necessary is the repeal
of its charter for gross abuse of franchise.
Short Of this, there is always good TO be ac-
complished by agitation against an ever pre-
sent evil. Since the present fight began
there has been reduction in rates, and also.
we think, in the amount of bills rendered in
many instances. Corporations are only bold
and staggering on the exterior; secretly
they are cowardly, as capital always is, and
shrink from giving any opening for pointed
attack. 1t is salutary for the gas company
to know that it is vigilantly watched and
will be unsparingly denounced on every op.
portunity.

THE " stalwart " organ Of this city was
moved to great wrath because Mr.. Lockwood,
of the Interior Department, spoke out in
meetin' to the effect that the clerks under
him had been narrowed with harrows of iron,
or as he put it less poetically, with fine
tooth comb, in the matter of political assess-
ments and really could not bear an assess
ment for any other purpose. 1t seems the
organ thinks the clerks should be like the
Ghost in +" Hamlet, - forbid to tell the secrets
of their prison house, and should be bled to
death for partisan purposes without wincing
or crying out If we admit the vicious
postulate that clerks are appointed solely in
the interests of party, they ought of course
to submit uncomplainingly TO pay for the
success of their party. 1t will need new
moral sense among the Stalwarts to make then
perceive that clerks are appointed to serv.
the public without regard to party, and tha,
taking any part of their scanty pittance fol
campaign purposes is nothing more or less
than blackmail, of the kind that used tc
prevail among feudal robbers, even when il
is not that sin which the catechsm tells III
cries to iheaven for vengeance, namely, de
frauding laborers of their wages.
The Sunday herald. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1866-1887, 1881-02-06

THE argument for civil service corruption
reduced to its best estate is this parties are
formed for the advancement of certain prin-
ciples among the most effective ways of
attaining success is to prostitute the civil
service TO partisan purposes by levying forced
contributions and making every clerk a
worker for his party instead of for the
Government. Qt is sometimes said that a
man ought not to be in Office if he does not
believe in the tenets of the dominant party,
but that is too plainly absurd.) What does
the above argument amount to more than
that most insidious of all pernicious doc
trines, " The end must justify the means,
which has been invoked for every foul deed
since time began, from, 1.-The massacre O
Glencoe to the treachery of Judas. Let the
question of political tenure of Office be dis
cnssed on its own merits, not with regard t.
the ends TO he attained by it, and it mus
appear as odious as what we have befor,
compared it to, the poisoning of wells or tn
slaughter of non.combatants in warfare.

PUBIC opinion is awaking to the fact that
indiscriminate generosity on the part of Con-
gress and the people is making the District
Mecca for paupers of all sorts, as well as a
kind of Botany Bay for criminals. Machine
charities run on the plan of what satirical
writer calls the Better Samaritan, who seeks
to create the very evil he wants to allay, and
lavish giving of money for no better purpose
than to compound with conscience, which
tells us the poor need to be taught self help
not helplessness, are producing their natural
results, until appropriations for rightful and
beneficial purposes have to be cut down t.
keep upa swollen poor rate, in which may b,
included for present purposes the free schools
