TIE new councils will be largely COM
posed Of new men. Some of the old
members were retired ut the primaries
and others at the general election. Few
experienced members go back in either
branch. The volunteer liremen, whose
grievances entered so largely into the
elections, lose some friends and gain
some. Fresh men will doubtless provide
some fresh measures. We trust they
will not be "tOO freSh.''

THE views Of the INTELLIGENCER
have at no time undergone any change
concerning the use OF money at elections,
and during the late campaign, as often
before and as we now repeat, it has been
ready to join with our contemporaries
and the city Democracy are willing to
unite with both the Republican factions
in any sincere organized effort to put
stop to it in every shape and form con
demned by law or Objectionable to sound
morals. So far as we are informed, by
report or observation, there was less buy
ing and selling of votcs-under any pre-
tense-in Lancaster yesterday than gen
orally occurs, the expenditures of the
political parties being mainly for their
"poll committees" Many members of
these worked faithfully yesterday, and
in their labOrS and exposure earned their
stipend but many more claimed and
got money for 'labors" which
amounted to nothing except casting
their votes for the party to which they
loudly shout their allegiance. The pay
ment of such men for such services is
only degree less Objectionable and de-
moralizing than to pay men for voting
against their conScienccs-if this class of
floating and purciasable voters can be
said to have consciences. The way to stop
the whole business ,as we have said before
and after elections, is for the politicians,
who are rs much plagued with it as the
| people, to agree to end it. \ concerted,
sincere agreement on their part will
terminate it and, although in a minor
i;y ard therefore not entitled nor able to
complete the work, the Democracy oi
this city and county are ready to join in
the beginning of the task and TO stay
will it until it is finished.

But If this method be the true one, that OF the
best artists of the day is false If her conception OF
Rosalnd be the true one not less false is the view OF
Rosalinds character cherished by every lover OF
Shakespeare. If wanted to use hard word, should
say that Mrs. Langtry, with all her elegant
coquetry of manner had vugarizcd Rosdlind. But
as do not want to use a hard word will say only
that she has failed to impart to the maiden OF
Shakespeare the advantages even OF that knowledge
of modern drawing rooms which Mrs. Langtry her
self possesses in high degree. She knows well
what court life is. So did ROsdInd, but why should
such picture of it be offered us on the stage as the
actress herself would acknowledge to be impossible
