Lord Roscoe Quoted Against Himself

Unfortunately for himself, Mr.. Conk-
ling is on record in sharp criticism of
his own position. In a speech in the
Senate in 1872, he said:
"The President has been made the OBJ
ject of gross assault because he would
not yield to demands-sometimes sordid
and vile-touching patronage. =
Do not Senators as well as Presidents
need to be delivered from temptation
May not Senators as well as Presidents
be tempted to scheme and intrigue and
play the demagogue and defame other
departments of government, and neglect
their duties and employ patronage and
even worse means, all to secure a re-
election or higher place. n 4 4
Have not passionate discords, unseemly
contentious, enmities, pernicious dis
turbances and bad legislation grown out
of the ambition of members of one or
the other house of Congress ? The worst
broils in our politics have festered in
Congress, and who does not know their
cause ?"
Again, in letter to Congressman
Griswold (Rep., N. W on August gath,
1871, Mr.. Conkling said:
"Shall Republicans in the face of the
enemy refuse to stand by their cause,
which in effect is to desert to the other
side, merely because lOaves have not
come to their baskets or fishes to their
nets? Men stand talking about Federal
patronage and differences among leaders
and personal feelings between individuals
and the like. What do the people care
about them2 OF what public conse-
quence are the personal aims, objects
and mishaps of individuals?'

The Revised New Testament and
Companion Volume.

We have received from |. K. Funk &
Co., publishers, New York, a copy of
the Oxford edition of the Revised Neao
Testament. also copy of The C0mpan-
ion to the Revised Version of the NeO
Testament, by Albert Roberts, D. D.,
member of the English Committee of
Revisers, and by a member of the
American Committee of Revision. The
Companion having been prepared care
fully by members of both revision COM
mittees, carries official weight. 1t shows
what changes have been made and also
the reasons which influenced the revisers
in making them. Without this COM
panion volume 1t will be difficult to
Judge of the merits of the revision of
the Companion.
DR.. Deems says:
The Companion to the Revised Yer
sion seems to me almost indispensable.
Even scholars, who were not at the
meeting of the Revisers, would have a
wearisOme work in seeking to discover
all the changes made, and to ordinary
feaders very much of the labor would
be lost. 1t is important to know the
spirit which animated, and the rules
which directed, the labors of the Re-
yisers, as we'll as the critical reasons
which determined certain important
emendations. All this is set forth by
DR.. Roberts with admirable perspicuity
No one who is not an accomplished
scholar could write such statement So
plainly. 1t will be of inestimable value
to laymen. Those who have any intelli-
gent interest in the Holy Scriptures will
find this little book Accordingly interest
ing. l shall urge every member of the
church of which | am pastor to give it a
careful reading, and purpose to intro
duce it as a text book in our Bible
classes"
Price, in paper cover, twenty-five
cents. The price of the Revised New
Testament, in paper cover, fifteen cents

A Rosy VIEW OF TExAs.-Capt John
Mcclure, prominent citizen of Wheel
ing, w. Va, who has just returned
from tour of Texas, gives a glowing
description of the outlook in the Lone
Star State. He says immigration is still
going into Texas, and the country is
steadily settling up. Lands are advanc-
ing in price and a great deal of building
is going on. The crops look very pro-
missing. Corn was tasseling out when
he left. There viii be large cotton
crop. Between Taylor, in Williamson
county, and San Antonio, Captain Nc
Clure passed through county almost
exclusively settled by Germans. 1t is
one of the thriftiest counties in the
State, and is noted for its excellent
schools. The Texas railroads are being
well built and are reaching out from
centre to circumference in every direc-
ton, like the spokes of wheel.

THE BoYToN CAsE.-In the United
States Senate, recently, a report was
presented from the Secretary of
State in regard TO the case of
Michael P. Boyton, who was ar
rested in Dublin, Ireland, in March
last, under the coercion act, and is
now held in British custody. Boyton
first claimed to have been born in the
United States, but afterwards protested
that, whist he was born in Ireland, he
was brought to this country whilst a
child, and that his father became a natu-
rallied citizen whilst the son was still
minor. Mr.. Blaine says the most dill.
gent inquiry has so far failed to establish
BOyton's assertions, or that he is entitled
to protection as a citizen of the United
States. though cit is clear that he honest
ly believed himself a citizen of the
United States, and has lived and acted
in that belief" Mr.. Blaine says he
views Boyton's case in all its lights as
one of hardship, and intimates an inten
ton to urge on the President an appeal
to the friendly benevolence of the British
Government in his behalf.

The term of Customs Collector Mer-
rift, of New York, would not have ex-
PRED until July 20, 1882, had he not
been superseded by NJ. Robertson.
There are no such charges against Mr..
Merritt as were brought against Collec-
tor Arthur dishonesty and inefici-
ency"-when Hayes and Sherman kicked
him out In fact, there could be none,
consistently, for the Robertson nomina-
ton was accompanied by that of Mr..
Merritt to the Consul Generalship at
London, which is a sufficient voucher
for his good record in the New
York Collectorship. 1t is the exigencies
of contending factions that bring about
these frequent and otherwise uncalled for
changes in this office. Collector Arthur,
Grant man, stood in the path of Secre-
tary Sherman's Presidential ambition,
and ne was forthwith kicked out of
Office. Collector Merritt does not answer
the requirements for 1884 of the Blaine
Garfield faction, and so he "steps down
and out. The political power of the
Office completely oYershadows its public
character and makes it the foot ball of
ambitious and combative politicians, and
at present threatens to make it the cause
Of the disruption of great party.

Progress of Railroad Construction.

The New York Commercial Bulletin
gives detailed statement of railroad OPP
erations in the United States during the
twelve months ending April /, 1881.
From this data it appears that the num-
Der of miles actually constructed
amounts to s lib, the number of roads
being 134 The number of miles pro-
jected amounts to Il, 277, the number of
roads being 1872. Thirty projected
roads are capitalized to the amount of
$6S, 635, 900, the total mileage being
1884 For each mile of road
there is issued, therefore, about $17,-
625 Of capital stock. The number
Of miles of road constructed in 1880
amounted to 6.241; in 1879 to 4, 721; in
1878 to 2,6S7; in 1877 to 2,281; in 1876
to 2,712; in 1875 to LIB; in 1874 to
, los; in 1873 to 4,1O7; in 1872 to 5,979;
in 1871 to 1879; in 1870 to 500; in 1869
TO 4,615. 1t thus appears that railroad
construction is again approaching the
magnitude it reached just before the
great panic More miles were built in
1871 than in any other year. There were
only % miles in operation in 1880; in
1881 70 miles were constructed. The

of President Garfield in his controversy
with Mr.. Conkling. The Independent
Republican Association has already

lister to Denmark, all of whom handled
Mr.. Conkling quite roughly.

General II. V. BoYnton, of the Gin
cinnati Gazette, appears to have taken
upon himself the Office of censor in mat
ters relating to the history of the civil
war. A short time ago at a reunion Of
the Union Army of the Tennessee, held at
Cincinnati, General Sherman recounted
the history of the battle of Shiloh in
such way as to lay the blame of the
Federal defeat on General G. F. Smith,
now dead. General Boynton came with
official records and put the blame on
Sherman himself. In Badeau's Life Of
Grant, just published the biographer
denies that an order was ever issued by
Gen. Mcclellan, then in chief command,
for the arrest Of Grant, accused OF
drunkenness and disorderlY conduct.
Boynton comes again with the records
and shows such an order was issued IN
1852. This is history, but it viii be

General Wickham and General Peter
B. Starke, two of the most prominent
Republican leaders of Virginia, insist
upon straight Republican ticket being
run in the coming State contest. Their
theory is that, with the Democratic party
divided between Funders and Readjust-
ers, each having full ticket in the field,
the Republicans can carry the State and
enter into full possession thereof with
out alliance with or obligations to any
outsiders. There being no national ques-
ton at issue this year to rally Democrats
to the support of one ticket. as was the case
last fall, it is believed by the straight-out
Republicans that the Democracy will di-
vide itself into about two equal factions.

ConkliHg's Purpose-A New Party.
Some people are beginning to think
that there was method in Conklings
madness, and that he did not, to use
homely expression, simply bite of his
nose to spite his face" 1t is now asserted
by those who profess to know his views
that bis steps were taken after mature
deliberation, and with q view to political
ends yet to be developed. A Washing
ton correspondent of the New York
EUening Post telegraphs to that paper as
follows: "a friend of Mr. Conkling tells
me that it is foolish to characterize Conk-
ings step as sctuated by sudden pique.
1t is not child's play or the sulking of
spoilt child. know Of my personal
knowledge ne said, that the step was
taken on mature elaboration in full view
of all possible consequences, and with
far-reaching political designs. I be-
lieve that Ccnkling is Indifferent
to a reelection. / think a split in
the Republican party is inevitable,
and that it has won its last national vic
tory. Garfield can never be renominat-
ed by a united party, nor can Blaine win
the prize. The signs Of the times por-
tend a new party based on some living
issue, and comprehensive enough to get
the support Of the South and a few
Northern States. Conkling, by uniting
with David Davis and Tilden, for in
stance, could lay the foundations of
formidable movement which might bear
Presidential fruit in 1884.
This may all be true, but it strikes us
that any new party headed by the South
hater, Roscoe Conkling, will have to be
very comprehensive indeed to obtain
any support from the South. Both
sides in the Radical family quarrel, so
long as they keep up the fight, have our
best wishes, but our sympathies and
affiliations go no further.

It is the opinion of ex-Goy. Bross, Il
Illinois, that there is less drunkenness in
Chicago to day, with nearly 100000 in
habitants, than there was when he first
went there thirtY-three years ago, and
when she had a population of only about
Is. 900. Whether this be true or not,
there is far less drunkenness in proper
ton to population in all parts of the
country than there was twenty-five or
thirty years ago. This is doubtless due
in large degree to the increased use of
beer, light wines, soda and mineral waters.
but it is also largely due to more en-
Hghtened public sentiment and higher
moral tone than prevailed then.

he could find no more effective tool than
Grantism. By declaring himself still
for the nomination of Grant and by en-
deavoring to hold the Grant faction to-
gether for service in 1884. he challenges
the administration to continue the fight
