Bourbon Despotjsm.

1t Is not trivial thing for recognized leader of
men to libel his government and disparage the
work of its founders. And what a wretched struc-
turo we should have lift liable to be toppled
over or swept away by the defeat of party in pop
ular election Our history gives the lie TO all such
calumnies, and our intelligent! people owe it to
their own self respect aud patriotism to silence oil
such calumnintors. What an insult to
half the people of the United States is implied in
tho declaration that one party is pledged to ruin
the country, that the triumph of one party will
hand the material interests of the country over to
their sworn enemies. And yet such declarations
arc being freely made by some of the prominent
men who are now taking leading parts in the
Maine campaign, and will soon be heard in other
States.- Washington POSI-.
Without assuming to defend Mr.. Blaine
from the somewhat heated attack of our
neighbor, we venture the inquiry whether
smart effort was not made from 1861 to
1865 to topple over our structure because
of the election of Abraham Lincoln
What says "our history" to hMP
The Bourbon Democratic party sup.
presses the majority in half a dozen
States by deliberate policy of organized
crime. 1t it could add to those captive
States enough others to put it in power,
it would rule by the subversion of a Re.
publican form of government Its sue
cess under these conditions (and it has
no pretensons under any other) aoould
be "the country's ruin," because it would
be revolutionary and despotic. When
all legal voters vote, in this country the
Bourbon party will be extinguished. Its
sole principle now is undying hostility to
majority rule in those Southern States
wherein it is the minority. All who sus-
tain the rights of legal voters are its op.
ponents This is something more than .
courteous difference of opinion. 1t is q
struggle between despotism and the SOW
ereignty of the people.

If the editor of our entcrprising morn
ing contemporary will examine the files
of his paper prior to November, 1881, he
will realize with proper humility the
utter worthlessness of its opinions as to
the strength of parties in Virginia. A
similar reference to the files of the Ma
rIoNAL REPUBLICAN will teach him to re-
spect our judgment and give heed to our
warnings on the same subject.

The Sultan has not yet agreed to any
of England's propositions. He seems
bent upon keeping in good diplomatic
position. He can claim to be grateful
for English Intervention, or indignant at
English invasion, just as shall best suit
him and his concealed allies. His de-
fance of England and her meek attitude
toward him while waiting for his pleasure
to be made more apparent form the high
comedy element in the Egyptian drama.

The Pigeon Shoot.

Mr. McNeigh has been heard from. He
declines to shoot against Mr. Williams up
on any ground, except Mortonviile, Pa, or
Suffolk Park, Philadelphia, with provi-
sion very Unusually that each shooter trap
and pull for his opponent. This virtually
amounts TO a declination to shoot at all and
is but little more than we looked for from
Mr.. NcN-igh, as We are convinced he fears
Mr.. Williams As an opponent. The offer of
the Elkton men was fair and faultlesS, and
if he really desired to stake his morny on
such an ISSUE lie had no just ground for
demanding any other terms than those Off
cred. An offer has been received from Della
ware parties to match Radcliffe and Short
against Williams and Barnes for $3.50 Il side
The challenge has been accepted, and the
hackers Of the Cecil men now await bill
of particulars as to time, place, etc.

That Elopement.

We gave a detailed account of the elope-
ment case of William Murray, a married
man, father of Il family of children, and
Miss Sallie Laws, maiden of twenty-five
summers, and this her first hard fall from
the neighhorhood of Glasgow, Del, on SUM-
day, the 18th ultimo. Since their departure
nothing more has been heard from them,
all trace having been lost upon reaching
Baltimore. The statement made by Will
mingtOn papers that the guilty couple re-
manned at the Howard House here over
night OF Sunday is incorrect. The lady was
not seen here at all She must have taken
the train at Newark. Murray came here
in buggy, accompanied by little boy,
supposed tn he his SON. on Sabbath evening,
left his carriage and horse at the Howard
House stables, and took the l.3S train
soHth, upon which he no doubt met his
companion in flight. The owner of the car
riase came after his property on the follow
ing Monday and recovered il all sound
Murray is said to have had with him only
about 500. Mrs Murray is suffering more
from the loss of her child than the recreant
husband. She is making preparations to
sell of the property left on the place and
remove TO her fathers house. in Philadel-
phia. Murray has heretofore been regarded
AS an honest and upright tenant farmer,
and was prosperous. Miss Laws, whose
character until she fell in with Murray was
above reproach, is a daughter of a respect
able farmer, and her parents are naturally
deeply grieved in consequence of her mis-
taken course. Search will be continued for
her by her friends, aided by the police au-
thoritieS
