THE CAUCUS.

The Republican Central Committee
of Milwaukee county has created a
subcommittee whose duty it has been
made to devise scheme by which Re-
publican caueuses can be made ex-
pressive OF genuine Republican senti-
ment. That committee has been as
signed a hopeless task. A caucus ex-
preston of the genuine Republican
sentiment of given locality cannot
be secured save by a general attend
ance of Republican voters who assem-
BILE to give expression to their views
without solicitation on the part of Of
fce-seekers and interested politicians,
and that would be condition of things
that does not seem likely to occur.
Instead of an expression of healthy
and genuine political opinion the eau
Gus, as rule, is but an endorsement
of the DEGREES, of the local politicians
who are most active in drumming up
few of their friends for that pur-
pose. A Republican exchange has
we'll said that the caucus is like moth
ing that is in heaven above, or the
earth beneath, or the waters under
the earth: that it stands at the foot Of
the shining ladder of political ambi-
ton demanding tribute from all who
seek to climb; that it is anything but
a free and legitimate expression of
the public will. and therefore ought
to be reformed. 1t has generally be-
come so evident that the result of a
caucus is but a registration and APP
prevail of the decree of little knot of
active politicians that many of the
best citizens and taxpayers, out of
sheer disgust, remain away, and then
if they are so presuming as to crlticise
the work of the caucus they are told
by the bosses that they have no bust
ness to find fault il they do not at
tend the caucus!

the position of Secretary of the Treas.

have been secured for the State, at a

have been secured by former admins
trations had they not been too inGo-

PremOnitions Of Autumn.

There was no other sound except the
song of the cricket, which is but an
audible stiffness; for though 1t be very
loud and heard atar, yet the mind does
not take note of ii as a sound, 80 en-
lrely does it mingle and lose its indl-
viduality among the characteristics OF
coming Autumn. Alas for the sum-
mer! The grass is still verdant on
the hills and in the valleys, the foil
age of the tree is as dense as ever, and
as green; the flowers are abundant
along the margin of the river, and on
the hedge rows, and deep among the
woods; the days, too, are as lerVld US
they were u month ago, and yet III
every breath of wind and in every
beam of sunshine there is an autumn
al influence. know not how to de-
scribe it. Methinks there is a sort OF
GOODNESS amid all the heat, and amild-
ness in the brightest OF the sunshine.
A breeze cannot stir without thrilling
NE with the breath OF Autumn, and l
behold the pensiye glory in the far
golden CLEANS among the shadows OF
the trees. The flowers, even the bright
est of them--the golden rods and the
gorgeous cardinaIs--have their gentle
sadness amid their pomp. Pensive
Autumn is expressed in the glow Of
every one of them. l have felt this in
luence earlier in some years than in
Others. Sometimes Autumn may be
perceived in the carly days Of July.
There is no Other feeling than that
caused by this faint, doubtful, yet real
perception, or rather prophecy, of this
years decay, so deliciously sweet and
sad at the same time. -Nathanid Haw-
WOlae.
