DMHdr haSf hdf' in ffe f next fh Gon n
gress than in any Congress for the
last half century. Everywhere
men are becoming more liberal and
less intolerant We do not mean to
say that party lines and party dis
tinctions are to be forgotten. This
will never be and ought not.
But men are becoming more respect
full toward those who differ with
them, and are recognizing that there
is such thing as an honest differ
ence Of opinion. This tendency has
become more marked and has found
a more emphatic expression since
the terrible affection of our beloved
Pr sident. His atfiiction, which has
aroused such universal sympathy, has
been made the occasion for the ex-
preston of this sentiment, but we
do not believe that it produced it.
It broke down the barriers and pres
sented an opportunity for US all to
stand on common ground, but we
suspect that public sentiment was
very ripe for it. We have known
brothers to disagree, quarrel and
remain at enmity with each other for
years. Their passions would cool
down, however, sooner or later,
and they would long for reconcilia-
ton, each one, perhaps, being too
proud to make the first advance, but
both anxious for the restoration of
fraternal relations. Finally some
great family affection overtakes one
of them, which softens their proud
hearts and assuages all bitterness.
They were ready for it before this
great affection broke down the
barriers and furnished a pretext.
This is the case of the American
people. They wanted reconciliation
but were too proud to take the mi
tiatory step. Affection came. The
great head of the nation is brought
to the very verge of the grave. Angry
passions are subdued, differences
forgotten, and once more we are all
brothers.

To our mind, untutored, as we are
IN the medical profession, it
appears as if the surgeons, when
they performed the last operation on
the President, last Monday, began
without distinct understanding of
all they were going to accomplish
They were certain that they intended
to facilitate the flow of pus. Tuis
they knew they intended. But there
were mysterious preparations for the
operation which lead us to believe that
they believed they might do some
thing more than to merely make an
incision to better drain the wound.
We suspect that they thought they
might accidentally, that they rather
hoped, that they would come up W th
the ball and would, in such an event,
take it out, as a matter of course.
We suspect that they are not alto
gether easy about it, and that while
they do not regard its presence in
the Presidents body as very danger
Gus, i'll they would feel better with
it out. They said nothing about
this unless they discussed it among
themselves, and they may never have
thought of it, but it appears evident
to us that they thought more than
they have said to the outside world.

Our esteemed contemporary, the
Nashville American, hopes that the
Democrats in Congress will set the
Republicans an example of consider
ing contested election eases on their
merits. That would be something OF
a refreshing character. It would
augur the near approach of the
political millennium. 1t would be
SONS thing so unusual from ordinary
events as to closely border on the
ttAare 'etxanfb ffkgH rfaltd WIFI UfB
action of the Democratic House of
Representatives in the Hull-Bisbee
case. What a contrast. It almost
takes ones breath to think of it.
We trust that the Democrats will
take the advice of our able Nashville
friend. It is good advice, and if ac-
cepted and acted upon it will do
good. 1t is good enough for Re-
pubhcans to accept, too, and we have
no doubt they will do it. It costs
something of an effort to do right
sometimes, but it is worth all it
costs.

The Century Co.'S New Quarters,

The Century Company-formerly
Scribner & Co.-will vacate its old
quarters in Broadway, over Charles
Scribner's Sons, early in September.
1t has taken ten years lease of the
fifth floor of the handsome new
building on the north side of Union
Square, The space at its command
is III the form of an L, with the base
on Eighteenth street, and is equal,
altogether, to a space nearly one
hundred feet wide by two hundred
feet long. Three steam elevators,
front and rear, bring these high
quarters In easy communication
with the pavement. The pub
lication Offices will overlook
Union Square. Adjoining them will

SECRETARY BLAINE is doubtless
right in not making a direct answer
to Hartmanns counsel, as to what
the government will do in reference
to the extradition of the renegade
Nihilist. But there ought to be,
and we presume there is, no question
as to what will be done in case of
extradition. Ii there is no doubt
about his identity, and he is guilty
of what he himself has boosted of, as
we understand, he should be sur
rendered to the Russian authorities
the moment the demand is made.
The United states cannot afford to
become a Botany Bay, for
the criminal classes of Eur ope.

protection from arrest.
IT took the Democrats of MissIs-
sippi three days to nominate a can
didate for governor, and having no
time left in which to get up new
platform, they simply adopted their
old one of four years ago. 1t guar
antees the protection OF all men IN
the enjoyment OF equal rights, and
permits no discrimination on account
of race, color or previous condition
of servitude. We presume it had
the same meaning four years ago
that it does now, and since its first
adoption. We have seen it ex-
planned by the acts Of the party. We
have heard something of it in the
celebrated "shoe-string district,
where enough ballots were thrown
out last fall on frivolous technicalities
and silly pretexts to elect Genera
Chalmers to Congress over Hon
John R. Lynch. Lynch is colorec
Republican of high character ano

" issuing their reprints OF the Brit
ish Reviews for July. The Edin-
burgh Review, just out, will be found
a very valuable number. We can
only briefly note the principal con
tents. The first paper gives an in
teresting account of the organization,
belief, and results of " Methodism,"
which it considers one of the great
bulwarks Of the faith among the
middle classes in England. Then fol-
lows a paper on Caesars Cams
paigns IN Britain" Sweden IN
der Gustavus Ill" treats of some
importan passages in the consti-
tutional history Of Sweden, as illus
trated by the recent Investigations of
French writer's. The Society of
Antiquaries gives an account of the
origin of the society, of its struggles
for life, what it has prepared to do,
and what it has accomplished. "Japan
Revolutionized" is review Of books
by Sir E. J. Reed and Miss Bird
with many quotations. The Revised
Version of the New Testament
treats of the various translation'
hitherto made, explains the plan O
the last one, and makes large mum
Der of minute criticisms, expressing
on the whole, disappointment. There
are interesting reviews Of "Shad
wells Life of Lord Clyde, AMI
: "Philippsen's Henry ". and Phllil

The first ward gang are bad lot. The other
night they went through farmers wagon, re-
lieving him OF his small keg OF family beer and
other eteeteras, consoling the owner during the
process of unloading his wagon by showing him
several fine specimens.of revovers. They are q
queer lot, too, and have odd ways of doing all
things. Their latest idea is dance; but the
lady Of the house considered proper for their terp
sichorean reyels declined the distinguished
honor Most people subside after being sat
down on; but the gang are not like most men.
Indeed, little opposition only develops their re-
sources. And the wished for consent has been
given. They wrote her letter. 1t was curl
osity among epstes. The author has the art Of
fonetic spelling down fne--finer than the Tri-
bune by odds. The author, too, is born diplo-
mat. He begins with "let the past bury its
dead" is perfectly willing to be forgiven for all
past transgressions. Then he tells her her daugh.
ter is "tOo fly" and should drop "bull.headed
dutchmen," and finally winds up with a threat
that she'd better let the dance be given at her
house, singing himself in quintriplicate "the
gang" The hour is fixed, the fiddler hired, and
the dance will take place with the latest flour
ishes. The astronomers Of the city government
will probably attend without invitations.

The most serious accident that has happened
on the Rock Island road for some years took
place on Thursday night just west Of Tiskilwa
where three coaches following the baggage car
were dtched and sleeper thrown partially oil
the track by broken rail. Almost Immediately
after being thrown from the track the coaches
took fire from broken lamps. One was consumed;
the other nearly so. About q dozen passengers
are reported badly injured, and many more
bruised. One woman named Kirby, of Ohio,
was so badly burned that she died next morning
No one from this city was on the train, and no
one from this county, so far as We can learn,
among the injured. The injured were provided
for by the company at Ilskilwa.
