UYlT IRE DEMocRICT'S PEINCEPLESl

WHAT IRE DFMOCR1CT'S PEINCTPLESl
The party pietends to have principles. It's
stump speakers, its newspapers, It's representa-
tiyes at Andrew jackson dinners, rs occasion
offers. direct special attention to them. The
Cincinnati platform of 1850 pledged those for
whom it was prepared to the constitutional doc
trincs and traditions of the Democratic party
as illustrated by the teachings aud exam plies Of
"a long line of Democratic statesmen and
"patriots." But the trouble with all these ex-
ponents of Democracy is that they resolutely
decline to 90 into particulars. They shun de
tall They point with pride to Democratic
principles, but signally fail to specify what
those principles are. The result is that the
student of our politics who fam would learn
from Democratic leaders what the principles
of their party really are, is no better of than
the listener at a scientific gathering who hears
"a paper in which lac is particularly interested
read" by title Artemus Ward WAS accus-
toned TO inform his audience, in the course Of
one of his lectures, I've got gifts of elOqucnce,
@but don't happen to have them about me this
evening" The general public, rendered scep-
teal by the course of Democracy during the
last quarter Of q century, is inclined to con-
clude that if that party still is the proprietor
of principles it never happens to have them
about itself these days.
This truth is enforced by a reference TO the

Engineer Mclvilles official report OF the land
ing of two of the boats crews of the Inflated
Jeanette and his subsequent search for Lieu
tenant De Long is a thrilling narrative OF heart
rending suffering and persistent pluck. 1t Is
conlplete vindicatiOn of his own course. Before
the boats were separated by the gale, orders
had been given in view of the emergency for
each party to make its way to the nearest set
Element before waiting for anybody. Engineer
Melville would not have been justified in in
stituting search for his companions lmmedi-
ately after he landed, even if he had known
where to look for them il that wlde-reachlng
delta. When he did receive tidings of the ter
rible plight of De Longs party he seems to
have done all that he could to render aid, and
to have made prOtracted search until the de-
sertion of the natives and the exhaustion OF his
supplies left him helpless with no alternative
eycelt retreat to the settlement. The Engineer
Is q brave man who has done his duty and his
heroism grit and sagacity have been cOnsPIcu-
ous. The details of the landing and search arc
in accord with the general outline which we
published a few DAYS ago. The party III the

That llustrious robbcr of banks and breaker of
jaiIs, popularity known as Billy the KID" once
more IS in the hands of justice The Kid lately
escaped from the jail at Albany under circum-
stances which did more credit to the zeal and pluck
Of his friends than to the skill and ldety OF the
officers Of that institution. One bright afternoon
the Kid walked out of his narrow cell INTO the
bonndless air OF liberty and had he been content TO
rest from his professional labors and remain IN
retirement ne might have been free to-day bnt
finding himself in Minneapolis. the desire to see the
workings of the banking system of that part OF the
great Northwest proved too much for him. Inc
result of his investigation was an Introduction to
the Chief Of Police of Minneapolis who paid HIM
marked attentions, and cordially invited him to SIT
for his photograph. The Kid respectfully but firmly
declined TO have his picture taken and his persist
ence in his decllnation led the Chief of Police to
form tine shrewd conclusion that gentleman who
was so DESTROYS to escape fame must be distin-
guished character. The scruples Of the KID were
overcome. hi, identity was established and the
Sheriff of Albany County promptly telegraphed to.
II is TO he hoped that arrangements will now be
made to keep tie Kid in private life fol long term
of years.

One of the most interesting subjects dis
cusscd Yesterday at the meeting OF the State
Charities Aid Association was loan relief.
This system of bonevoence has been most
fully developed III this city in the Sixteenth
Ward, but it is so sensible that it commendS
itself Immediately to all those who are inter
ested in practical charity, and it will doubt
less soon become Widespread. The method Is
to lend money to the poor who need It, tax
ing from them security, generally indorSed by
the employers Payment is received Ill money
or work. In this way the worthy, sef-respect-
ing poor are helped, and in the relief there is
10 tendency toward making paupers 1t is a
good dctcctor of fraud too, for the wants OF
many applicants disappear when an equivalent
is asked and the borrower is required to sign
his name. The small loss which the aSsoci-
alton in this city has sustained is encouraging.
In London the loss upon leans is per cent.
Here it is not so large.

The House hill to promote the efficiency OF
the Life Saving Service was discussed in the
Senate yesterday, and objection was made to
those features of it which would involve addl-
tiOnal expense tits trte to say it, but the Liie-
Saving Service is most admirable and should be
extended and more efficiently sustained. Inc
pay of the men should he increased and made
more certain. The compensation OF the super
in.endents ought to be more, because such
officers to make them most useful need that sea-
faring experience which would command good
wages elsewhere The pay of the surfmcn Will
probably be fairly adjusted under the provi-
sions of the bill as it stands The objection to
pensioning disabled men. that it would be diff
cult to decide when the extent of the injuries
would entitle them to this consideration, does
not seem a strong one, although there may he
other reasons against establishing anything
like a civil pension list in this country.

action invites is that no reason save
political reason can be given for making
the change, and that the quality OF the
political reason appears in the statement that
Mr.. Van Horn is an earnest Garfield Repubh-
can, while Mr.. Pierce is an earnest Stalwart,
and was a strong supporter of the third term

New York, Feb. 15.-The ship Glen
morag arrived to-day, having picked up
n boat with eleven of the crew and two
passengers of the steamer Bahama, of
Porto Rico for New York. John S.
Scott, a cabin passenger, says the Ba-
hama left st. Johns on the 4th of Feb
ruary. On February 9th they cou
tered a hurricane which threw the
steamer on beam ends. 1t was con-
cluded to abandon the ship and two
boats were lowered. The captains boat
contained II persons. 1t vas swamped
shortly after leaving the ship, and two
or three were seen to swim back to the
vessel, but it was impossible to tell if
they succeeded in getting on board.
Three of the crew refused to leave the
ship, prefering to take chances in re-
naming as the two boats were so heav-
lily laden. Our boat contained R. Will
liams, first officer; R. Ross, second Off
Ger; Ii. j. Fear and myself.

Tho Now Emancipation Act.

Upon q special order of business yes
ter, Mrs. Packard was invited to ad-
dress the council committee of the
whole upon the bill introduced at her
request, concerning the identity of
women.
The lobby was filled at an early hour
by our citizens, a large proportion being
ladies, who waited with some interest
the plea for the passage of the bill.
The bill has been thoroughly re-
viewed in the columns of the LEADER,
and its readers are therefore, well &C
quainted with the provisions of the
proposed measure, and their acquaint-
ance has been increased by receptions
given by Mrs. Packard, at which the
points of the proposed enactment were
thoroughly presented by the ~exponents
of the bill. Hence there is need of no
review of the bill, nor of Mrs. Pack
ards argument in favor of the move, as
both are familiar.

Official Report Of the Commissioner
Upon the Epidemic,
Cause OF the Disease and Manner for
Its Extinction.


Washington, Feb. 15.-The secre
tary of the treasury sent to the senate
to-day the manuscript of the commits
sion's report on the cattle plague. 1t is
a most exhaustive history Of the plague,
and the consideration, and treat
ment for the extinction of the living
plague. The commission consider it
necessary that the authority entrusted
with that work be clothed with the fol-
lowing powers by law
To abolish or regulate the markets
and store cattle Unidentified; to prohibit
all exposure of cattle on the highways
OF in unfenced or insecure places in the
infected districts, or Of suspected cattle
on the lot adjoining or occupied by
healthy cattle, or bordering on the
highways; to prohibit the pasturage of
more than one herd on one pasture, I'M
less under special license; to disenfect
all premises, fodder and other articles
that have been presumably exposed to
infection; to institute and enforce such
minor rules as shall be demanded by
the peculiar conditions of the particular
cases in the infected districts; to enjoin
the slaughter at the fat markets in the
infected districts of all cattle entering
those markets; to prohibit all o
ment of cattle in the infected districts,
except under special license; to inspect
all cattle in the suspected districts; to
slaughter all infected cattle and in ex-
%ceptional cases those that have been
exposed to infection; to have to con-
demned cattle appraised and the own
ers literally Unidentified.
In order to carry out these
suggestions, the commissioners rec
ommend a liberal appropriation by con-
gress, to be disbursed by some deslgna-
ted federal officer. In case the work
is delegated to the different states.
The commission desires that a liberal
appropriation will be made from the
federal exchequer sufficient to cover
the greater part of the outlay, and that
this be paid over to the executive of the
infected state on the approval of the
veterinary surgeon, or organization de-
signed for that purpose. The commits
sion consisted Of James Law, E. F.
Thayer and j. II. Saunders.
