AN ESTEEMED contemporary desires to
know how it would be possible to make the
New York Euening Post any duller than it
is. Perhaps the quickest way would be
to widen the columns.

A REPUBLICAN, PAPER down in North
Carolina contends that the negroes are en-
titled to three-fourths of the Federal pa

UNCLE TIMOTHY HOWE has had NOV
ing of the spirit at Paris, and has treated
the Monetary Conference to one Of his bril-
liant eruptions. In anticipation of the
great orators well known humor when he
tackles grave public question the Nation
says:
We have no doubt his remarks helped the
Conference to the conclusion, which they
will speedily embody in an adjournment
sine die that there has been nothing serious
in this meeting on the part of the United
States from the beginning. 1t has been a
cal in its origin, and of somewhat the same
nature rs good campaign song or torch
light procession.
For once we depart from our established
rule, and remark that an esteemed contempo
rary has been guilty of making first class
observation.

THE Richmond State says that at is re-
frcshing to find the tables turned at last
and that the whites are now being driven
from land in the West they had seized upon
instead of the Indians, the United States
troops protecting the original and legal
owners of the soil. 1t had so long been the
fashion of You take the buzzard and I'll
take the turkey, or I'll take the turkey and
you the buzzard, white man never saying
turkey to Indian once that Poor Lo will
begin to think there is some justice left fol
him in this white mans world after all. !.
Our friend is premature. In about thirty
days after the Indian agent has arrived on
the premises Lo will be hunting around
for enough turkey meat to protect the bones
from the rain.

ROTTEN POTATOES and unsavory cab
bagcs have come prominently into play in
London as curious episode in the election
of chaplain for the Church of st. Saviour,
Southwark. Among the voters were II
number of Irishmen, and out of the mixture
was evolved n free fight. The police were
successful in stopping clively interchange
of cabbagcs and potatoes, but could not
silence the shouting and hooting of the bel
ligerents To render the whole affair u
complete tissue of inconsistencies the cause
of the riot was q poem or hymn written by
one of the candidates, in which he
mellifluOusly bade the holy bells to swing
their solemn music and roll the darkness of
the world away. The critical crowd con-
sidcrcd these lines to exhibit leaning
toward Catholicism, and the violent ami
mosties were stimulated ut the election
into this singular demonstration.

the strength of their position that they
officially frowned down the proposed law
for prohibition.
We think We can here discern n new sec
tional issue, but 1t will be fought out be-
tween different contestants than appeared in
the old one, and with quite different weap-
ons. 1t will be solid South against
solid North, all Republicans. This manifest
propensity on the part of Southern Republic
cans to kick out of harness and do all the
drinking they officially please will arouse
an intense bitterness among their Northern
brethren, who can with great difficulty be
driven to q bar, much less made to drink.
Perhaps there are not one hundred Republi-
cans In the Northern States, New Jersey ex-
cludcd (where whiskey is required for ma
laria,) who can truthfully allcge that they
have made the personal acquaintance OF
strong drink. The party has always been
proud of its record in this respect. Its illus
trious past is not to be tarnished at this
late hour. Bitter intcrnecinc strife may be
looked for. Either Republicans of the
North must shake North Carolina, or tho
latter must shake the Republican party. II
Is absurd to think that the tail can wag Tho
dog. But sectionalism has broken ont will
great deal of its old vigor.
