AFTER some years of doubt and uncer-
launches out into tho sea of practical facts
and applies the common rules of profit and
loss to the business of maintaining IL politi-
cal institution known as a Boss" In
this it simply echoes the melancholy strain
of the Democracy of that State who in
dulged in the luxury of u Boss at the OK
pcnsc OF the State government control and
Federal supremacy. Hear the wall
The Republican party is learning how
much 1t costs TO keep /" Boss" With the
Senate of the United States suddenly given
over to the opposition. with the party badly
divided In this State. with the possibility of
II loss of the State Legislature in the fall
elections, and n very serious check to the
supremacy of the party throughout the
Union, Republicans are finding that the
role which they have permitted Mr.. Cons-
ling to play is fcnrfully expensive one for
the party,
As a matter of fact, however, the above
interesting wall may be put down under the
head of applied mathematics. They don't
care up in that locality how much actual
cost is required to hold on to the machine,
so long rs the machine is held together with
the power and patronage implied. But the
case becomes different, the taxes become
fruitless, as it were, when the stakes raised
are poured down rat holes of various kinds,
such as party disscnsons and the cavities
caused by want of public confidence in the
face of bribery and fraud. 1t isn't the ex-
pensc of a Boss per sc, but the cost of finding
that he pays no dividends.

THE sTAY-AT-HOME crowd that finds
itself short, both in time and tin, can enjoy
Il lovely bit of travel by getting aboard the
F-strect line going westward, and sticking
to the ship to its final mOOring in George
town. The craft pursucs II wandering course
through good deal of alphabet and some
geography In the way of avenues, but it
comes out all right in beautiful spot in
view of the massive pile of the rising Catho-
lie college. Beneath the evening skies the
handsome edificcs along the track take on
new and unusual lustrc; what is ordinarily
undeniably brick, though brick at its best,
glows under the low, descending rays with
u peculiar richness of tint, heightened by
the contrast of the abundant foliage that
CLEANS in the sunset sheen. AS twilight
comes on with slow, soft advances, the
transacted streets, in the increased stiffness,
ruralizc into long drawn aislcs of grcenery,
and the pretty vcrandas, wrcathcd in vines,
half reveal, half disclose pleasant domestic
groups. In the growing darkness the town
assumes the best aspect of rural suburb,
blending the charms of town and country,
while the falling dew sends out upon the
evening breeze watts of perfume from the
many gardens. TO those who care to read
Alright the scenes spread before them, and
mete out the full measure of gratitude for
the common blessings that lie close about
the prosaic paths of everyday experience,
this modest little tour will repay an abund-
ant interest to the cinvestment of an evening
hour.

A VERY CURIOUS and interesting mania
just been discovered in New York. 1t con-
sists in an uncomfortable desire to take
small girls by the hand, supposing of course
that they have the attractions to warrant
such proceeding, and, without asking any
questions, whisk them off for day s ramblc
in the park or trip to Harlem Bridge.
A few days since, he was leading along a
.youngster, who didn't seem to be exactly
willing captive, as it were for she held
back and cry or two came from her mouth.
Surprising that something was wrong an
expressman with the euphonious name of
Edwards, who CHANGED at that moment to
be driving by, stopped his wagon, and forcing
these twain to get in, drove them off to the
station house where he stated the case. 1t was
slated kidnapping, and yesterday came to
trial. The old gentleman alleged that the
expressman had violently knocked him
down and extracted $50 from his pocket,
and this is very reasonable, because we hap
pen to know that a gentleman of good habits
will have about that sum in his clothes
when he takes girl to Central Park for the
day. Inferentially, the jehu was guilty.
But the old man called in the children of
his neighbOrhood as his witnesses and their
parents came along to see fair play. One
mechanic complained that the defendant
had marched his girl of on one occasion re-
Gently and never brought her back till
evening.
"Was she all safc?" timidly qucricd the
old man.
"Yes. "
"Didn't she say she had had good timer"
" Yes, but"
And here the yOungster, who had been
thus violently abducted, showed signs of
delight at the memory of that jolly June
day when she rambled off with the lonesome
old fellow to the park. Plenty of other
witnesses were ready by their eyes to testify
that the defendant had treated them kindly
and won their young hearts 1t was simply
a case where man, old and harmless, prob
ably bereft of all he once loved ON earth,
thought u child's only mission was to be
happy, and his mission consisted in making
them so without much regard to the con-
ventonalities of asking ma.
The world is full of just such cases and
they do credit to human nature. Possibly
the instinct may not always be cultivated
to such an extent but the almost universal
passion, when we look at child, is to tote
IL OFF to the park put it at the business end
of stick of candy and watch it laugh at tho
contortions of the elephants front tail. There
is one flaw in the old mans theory. He
seems to draw the line somewhere about
ten years of age and beyond that he never
carries girls away without the formalty o.

The POLICY of the Administration in the
Virginia conflict, while not definite enough
on the surface to SUIT either of the anti
Democratic wings, is still sufficiently clear
for all purposes of translation. The attitude
assumed by the President doubtless involves
moro shrewdncss than audacity; but there
are political situations in which the highest
type of valor is the most deliberate discrc-
tion. We are inclined to view the state of
affairs in Virginia as belonging to that class
of situations.

OUR DISTINGUISHED FRIEHD, General
Boynton. in one of his able specials to our
esteemed contemporary, the Cincinnati Gu
=etfe, after quoting the text of our recent
article denying current rumors of strained
relations between the President and Sccrc-
tary of State, says;
. A very evident purpose of THE CRiT1o
seems to he to try to drive Mr. MacNeagh
from the Cabinet, and the Importance OF
this new departure undoubtedly is to be al
tributed to such purpose.
We would respectfully inquire of our dis
tingushcd friend where he finds his "cvi-
dence' of "the very evident purpose
which he ascribcs to THE CRITIC? Surely
not in any uttcrance of ours. We have not
to our knowledge intimatcd anything of
the sort. If we were publishing a daily
royal octave volume like the Chicago
Times or Cincinnati Enquirer there would
be some chance for things to creep in unbc-
knownst, as il were, to the editor But in
the case of our own trim little sheet, such n
possibility is quite remote.
We have read everything that has ap-
pcarcd in THE CRITIC since we took charge
of it--including the advcrtiscmcnts-and
nothing has as yet met our eagle eye that
could be construed into "cvidcncc" of tho
every evident purpose which our distn-
gushcd friend processes to have discovered.
1t may be that we have overlooked some
thing which the mere acute vision of our
distinguished friend detected. As the late
A. Ward remarked Of the Joe Millcritc mil
lenium, it may have occurred, but if so, the
event escaped our observation.
Under these circumstances we deem it our
privilege to ask our distinguished friend to
point out to us the evidences which he
has discovered of our alleged every evident
purpose" We ask this information in order
that we may be able to proceed properly.
The editor of THE CRITIC does not desire
to "drive Mr.. MacVcagh from the Cabinet"
On the contrary. If anything has appeared
in our columns susceptible of Interpretation
as evidence of such desire, it has been the
unauthorized work of some writer for THE
CRITIC, smugglcd in at the moment ofgoing
to press, and thereby escaping the super
vision of the editor.
We don't hesitate to say that if anything
of the kind has been done the perpetratol
thereof would be summarily dismissed from
the staff of THE CRITIC. In order, there
fore, that we may proceed intclligently in
these important premises, we again request
our distinguished friend General Boynton t.
point out the article or paragraph whenc,
he derived, or supposed that he had dc
rived, his impression that it was our "vcr,
evident purpose TO "drivc Mr.. MacVcagl
out of the Cabinet"
For our own part we beg to rcassurc al
whom it may concern that we are incapabl
of cherishing such an intatuation. Gu
natural bent is the utmost reverse of tn
sanguine anyhow; and il occurs to us tina
no person not of morbidly sanguine temper
amcnt would think of attempting to "driv
from the Cabinet person whose comman,

WHITTAKER-not the colorcd cadet, but

He routed Pitney, but when Pitney went

AND NOW COMES Senator Strahan to tes-
tify that little Johnny Davenport promised
him United States marshaship if he would
desert Conkling and rally under the banner
of the Administration. Whereupon the ad-
herents of Mr.. Conkling elevate their white
and spotless hands in holy horror and bow
down their pure and guilcless hearts in un-
ntterable woe at the degcneracy of the times.
AS we understand it, Mr.. Conkling, when he
controlled the Federal patronage of New
York with something like the autocracy of
a car never employed it for the accom-
plishment of political ends, and never--no
never, awarded an Office for a political ser
vice. 1t is not only an egregious mistake,
but cruel slander, to suppose or to say that
when Mr.. Conkling controlled the Federal
patronage of New York there was such q
thing as a machine" On the other hand,
that bad and wicked institution is later
invention of loose and vile men like Judge
Robertson, William A. Wheeler and then
associates. But for che row that has been
kicked up the world might never have
known how guileless how truly good on
how white-souled Conkling and Platt really
are. STILL as Dick Crowley is said to have
remarked in an interview, the absence OF
popular indignation at the disclosures o
the Half-breed tactics Is incomprehensible.'
Perhaps, as we suggested yesterday, the
pensive public has fallen into the disreput
able habit of pulling down its lower cyclic
with its forefnger.

THE great Journalistic duel that was ad-

The above is one of the great efforts of the
powerful mind of Col John Cockerill, and APP
pears in the st. Louis Post Dispatch. We
feel authorized to assure our esteemed
friend that "the great journalistic duel" to
which he refers, bears many features OF
similitude to an equally celebrated afiaih of
honah that took place between Colonel John
Cockerill, of Cincinnati, and Majah Hodge,

SAN FRANCISCO. July 22.-In the
State Prison investigation to-day
w. p. Harkey, Sheriff of Sutter
county, testified that he went to
San Quentin to arrest one McNeal
on the day McNeal WAS to have
been liberated from the prison.
He arrested McNeal and was going
from the prison with him when the
Captain of the Yard took the pris-
oner and kept him some time.
Upon inquiring for the prisoner he
found that he had escaped by going
around the prison and fleeing to
the San Rafael hills. Harkey did
not connect Warden Ames with
the affair, He supposed the Cap
tain of the Yard coiluGed with Nc
Neal for the escape. Warnen Pack
man. of the Folsom Branch
Prison, said he was told
that Ames had agreed to
consult the Directors about
appointments at San Quentin.
Warden Ames was examined as to
bis duty and of the prison dIselp-
line. Gov. Perkins testified that
the name of the last Director ap-
pointed by him was canvassed aud
he gave his reason when the last
appointment was made. David
Porter gave history of the sale of
land to the State for brickyard.
He denied having said that it COST
him half he received for the land
to sell it to the Prison Directors.
