Thomas Carlyle, whose death is
announced in our news columns, has
for many years been the most striking
and. perhaps, the NEST picturesque
figure in contemporary literature.
Rugged in face and form, he impress.
ed his remarkable personality on
everything he wrote, and. especially
in Frederick the Great" and "The
French Revolution" exhibited a
boldness of thought and contempt
for traditions which fairly took away
the breath of the critics. and sent a
thrill of something like terror thro.
ughout the literary world. Essenti,
ally radical, he refused to be bound
by any fixed laws, and praised the
"strong man" and the ardent patriot
in almost the same breath; but, I'M
DERIVING all his work, was grim adj
miration of the sterner qualities of the
human will and intellect, which he
was never at any pains to conceal or
repress. His style of writing-jerky,
involved, and often much exaggera-
'ted-was so peculiar that it helped to
intensity the sense of novelty which
his utterances at first conveyed. but,
in course of time, it came to be regar-
ded as being what it doubtless was

Personally. Carlyle was most inter-
esting character. Rough and uncouth
in exterior, and often surly, even to
his best friends, he was one of the
tenderest of husbands, and after the
death of his wife, which occurred
some years ago, he exhibited up to
the last moroseness and irritabillty
which greatly tried the patience of
those with whom he was brought in
contact. During many years of his
life he was almost recluse, and form
ed as few friendships as possible. AID
parently. he had supreme contempt
for the opinion of others. and seemed
to delight in extorting all the adiRl-
ratio n he received. With all his de
fects and eccentricities, however, he
was brave and loyal man, and by
his fierce assaults on cOnventionaliSm
undoubtedly did good work for liter
allure. But for Carlyle, indeed, many

Hill, of Georgia, astonished his
Democratic friends in the Senate a
few days ago, in his remarks on the
Ingalls, resolution on the electoral
count. He declared that, though he
would vote for a reference, he knew
as did every other inte lligent man,
woman, and child in this broad land
that General Garfield had been
elected President of the United
States, and that he would be inaugu-
rated no matter what these two
bodies should do.
There appears to be number of
Democrats whs still believe that
Hancock received majority of the
popular vote cast last November, and
in the absence of figures, refuse to
think otherwise. The following are
the figures taken from the official
count: Garfield. 4,450,92 Hancock.

Weaver received 307 .740 votes, max
ing total of 9,206,549. In 1876 the
grand total of the popular vote was
8,40l ,497. This shows an increase in
1880 of 805,052, which was divided
among the three parties as follows /;
Republican gain, All, 1853; Demo>
cratic gain, 161 1896; Greenback gain,
226,003. There is doubtless a great
deal of satisfaction for our Green back
friends, in the fact, that although
they did not succeed in electlng their
man, they outstripped the Demo
Gratis by over so per cent. in the in.
crease of their vote over 1876.
This heartless levity comes from
the New York Tribune: The Dem
ecratic hunt for a policy is about as
ludicrOus as the Dutchman's attempt
to find his boy. Said the latter: 81
loose my poy, and ven look for him

him stood up, he stood up. put my
arms aroun' his neck, and it wasn't
him." The success of the Democrats
in finding n policy is about as bril-
liant. They hunt all around for one.
and when they think they have
found it they consult over 1t and hold
a party weep, and just as they con.
clude to adopt it they discover that
after all it isn't the policy they want.

Gladstone's Coup D'etat.

on Thursday last, as recorded by our
cable dispatches, the Irish obstruc-
tionists we're, on motion of Mr..
Gladstone, removed from the House
of Commons by force, by the Ser
geat-at.arms and his deputies. The
Liberals and the Conservatives were
united in this, the lines being clearly
drawn-Great Britain against Ire
land. The event was so startling a
departure from the traditionds of the
English Parliament, that it seems to
smack of revolutionary periods, the
turbulent times of Cromwell, and of

that General Garfield gave him to
understand that Senator Blaine

term of the New Castle. Del, county
Court, the chief justice, in his charge
to the grand jury, made special and
severe reference to the lecture of Col.

"What Shall We Do to be Saved ?"

impression that under the law rela.

and should be indicted.

In looking through the columns of

In looking, through the columns of
the last edition of the the Sunday
american, we find the following:
A we'll authenticated report comes
from Annapolis that the Governor
has at last determined to begin lhe
contest within very short time, and
that he will resort to no half meas.
ures to achieve his purpose. His re-
cent examinations Of the books of
the Comptroller of the Treasury are
to serve as a basis for his warfare
against the "bosses." He proposes
at some early day to lay the result of
his investigation before the public,
in the form, either of proclamation
or letter, to some of his political
friends. He has not made any new
discoveries, but he thinks that the
people of the State ore not aware of
everything that is known to a limited
circle. His inquiries have disclosed
that the tax levied for the sinking
fund has been applied to other pur-
poses. and instead Of being used for
the redemption of the bonds issued
by the State, has been used to defray
the expenses of conducting the State
government. He has further found
that, although the law prohibits
members of the legislature from ac-
cepting perquisites. there were ap.
pointed, towards the end of the last
session of the legislature, from twelve
to twenty members of the two houses,
who, for a few days. work received
$3.50 each ; that persons appointed as
subordinate officers of the two houses
in February, at the middle of the
session or toward its end, were paid
the full salary. as if they had served
from the beginning of the session.
These and other matters of similar
import are to be given to the public
by the governor. and he thinks they
will create a stir. His object, of
course, Is to secure q comptroller or
treasurer. and thus have majority
of the board Of public works, and to
select a majority of the members of
the legislature.
Judging from present indications
the next Democratic campaign will
be o lively one.

Mr.. Congor, of Michigan, over the
bill for the relief of Mrs. Page. In
the Senate Saturday the day was
mainly devoted to the passage of
private bills ca the calendar, a num-
Der of which were disposed of. The
Bicknell resolution for counting the
electoral vote was taken up as the
first business in the House, and was
finally adopted, with but little oppo-
sition from the Republicans. There
was some debate about the legality
of counting the vote of Georgia, but
the resolution declares that the Vice
President shall merely declare the
vote was cast according to the certif-
icate received by him, and that if it
was counted it would give the person
for when it was cast such and such
a total number of votes. The ap.
portionment bill was again debated,
but no action on it was reached.
Senators Hamlin and Thurman and
Representatives Crowley and House
were Monday appointed tellers to
count the electoral vote. In the Sem
ate scene occurred between Senators
Conkling and Butler, the latter accu
sing Mr.. Conkling of making false
statements during the recent cam>
paign about the South Carolina GEN.
sus. Mr.. Conkling, stating that he
did not mind Senator Buffers "va-
porings" in the least, declined to re-
ply to the assault until future day.
The Pension Appropriation bill was
taken up, and was still under debate
at the hour of adjournment. "A
number of bills and resolutions were
introduced in the House, but the
main portion of the session was devO-
ted to an attempt on the part of Mr..
Reagan to rush the River and Har
Dor Appropriation bill through under
suspension of the rules. The at
tempt was failure. both Republi-
cans and Democrats joining in oppo-
sing it. and the bill was laid aside to
come up in the regular order of bust
ness. The credentials of Senator's
elect Arthur P. German, of Mary
land, and Philetus Sawyer, of Wis
consin, were presented in the Senate
on Tuesday and filed. The consider
ton of the Pension Appropriation
bill was concluded in committee of
the whole, and the bill was reported
to the Senate, where it was laid aside
before final action upon it was reach.
ed. The River and Harbor and
the Legislative, Executive and Judi
cial Appropriation bills were reported
to the House from the committees to
which they referred. A struggle
ensued over which bill should be
considered in committee of the
whole, during which the confusion
was so great that the sergeant alarms
was ordered to compel all members
to resume their seats and cease talk
ing. The order was carried out, and
the Legislative bill was taken up by
committee of the whole. The bill
appropriates SIT, ISL 600, and was still
under consideration at the hour of
adjournment. In both houses res
olutions of respect 10 the memory of
the late Representative Eyarts w.
Farr, of New Hampshire, were
adopted, and eulogistic addresses de
liyered.
