A Journalistic Judas,

There is no place within the gift of Democrat
that will not be Immediately filled by a Democrat,
and in not single instance will the test for the
appointment be other than that Of party SERVICE
pure and simple. This may seem broad and
sweeping statement but the pity of it Is IT is so
absolutely true that no intelligent person will
have the hardhood to deny it. 1t is not merely
charged by Republicans or assumed by the public (;
1t is openly and shamelessly admitted by the
Democrats themselves; by the very hypocrites
who less than a fortnight ago were rendiug tho
air with their clamor against the prostitution of
the public service by making parlisanship the
test for office. No Republican now holding an
Office that will become subject TO the disposal of
Democratic governor or u Democratic Congress
has the slightest hope or expectation of keeping
his place; and no Democratic governor or Con-
gresham would dare retain him, whatever his
merits or his claims. 1t Is right here at the very
threshold OF its entrance upon power, that the
Democratic party encounters the first test of its
sincerity, and it is significant of its utter shame
lessness that II does not wait even to be tempted
but proclaims even now its premedtated deceit
and bald hypocrisy.-Ne0 York Tribune.
OF course the Tribune editor knew all
this before as well as he does since the
election. The Democrats may we'll re-
ply to him in the following words, which
are recorded in the twenty-seventh chap
ter of Matthew, third and fourth verses I:
Then Judas which had betrayed him, when he
saw that he was condemned, repented himself,
and brought again the thirty pieces of silver to
the chief priests and elders,
Saying, have sinned in that have betrayed
the innocent blood. And they said. what is that
to us2 See thou to that.
The verse which follows relates an act
which this modern Judas has not the
grace to initiate. 1t reads thus:
And he cast down the pieces Of silver in the
temple, and departed, and went and hanged him

A bourbon Outrage.

In Tate County, Mississippi, which is
the second Congressional district, 400
tickets were voted for j. r. Chalmers,
and so certified by the county board.
These votes have been denied him by
the secretary of state, because on the
tally-list the mistake was made, or fraud
committed, of writing ]. r. Chambless
instead of J. r. Chalmers. This fact is
not disputed; but the secretary of state
followed the unsigned and non-essential
tally-list instead of the certified footings.
The governor has accordingly issued the
certificate of election to Manning, the
Bourbon nominee, who WAS defeated by
more than a thousand votes 1t remains
to be seen whether the next Bourbon
House will sustain this barefaced count
ing out of 1,400 ballots with General
Chalmers's name printed on them.

An Exceedingly interesting Work.

DR.. NJ. NJ. Dc Meza, who has been resident Of
Washington for fourteen years, and who was once
the private secretary of Santa Anna has in course
of publication an interesting work on the Shoot
ing of Maximilianat Quertaro and other matters,
in connection with the reign Of the Austrian
Prince In Mexico. He looks upon the execution Of
Macmillan as act of cruelty, totally uncalled
for on the part Of Juarez. DR.. De Meza favored
republic in Mexico, and was the mediator be-
tween Santa Anna and Maximillan when the
latter agreed to abdoate the throne and become
president of the republic for four years, with
Santa Anna at the head of the army. The book
will be ali exceedingly interesting one. parlicu-
larly to the Spanish speaking people, showing as
1t does many inside facts in connection with the
sad tragedy never before published. Dr. De Meza
is well posted ON the affairs of Mexico and South
America, having but lately returned from ex-
tensive tour in that section Of the American Con-

AT Montgomery, Ala, on Saturday, the
official count of the vote for governor in
the last election was made by the speaker
of the house and the president of the
senate in the presence of both houses.
1t gives O'Neal, Democrat, 100,59l and
Sheffield, Independent, 46,9S6. Of course
:" the vote for governor has no reference
to the votes cast. 1t is only footing up
of the Bourbon false returns from the
several counties. Nobody seriously pre-
tends that voting has anything to do
with elections in Alabama.

Virginia mad tho Tariff.

We hope the Bourbons of Virginia will come out
openly and boldly for free trade, and not try to
ride both sides of the sapling with the futile and
cidcntaf protection" We-the Readjusters of Vir-
ginia-are for "a protective tariff, with incidental
revenue" We, also, are the only consistent and
persistent practical workers for the repeal of the
internal revenue system, for. If the principle of
protection is not right and is not enforced In our
Tariff then there should be tarif at ALL and all
our taxes should be internal, as then they must DC.

HOPE DEFERRED.
The tender trouble Of her eyes

The tender trouble Of her eyes
Is born Of hope deferredi the tears,
In witness of her grief, arise
From day to day, through all the years.
And often In her sleep at night
Are visions beautiful TO see.
Aud in the darkness there is light;
Aud this is half her misery.
For dreams of vain delight are ono
With weary waking thoughts ofpsin.
For when the happy night has gone
The dreary morning oomes again.
And Joy and sorrow fill her eyes,
When ifiendslurround her; sudden tears
When quiet and alone arise
From day TO day, through all the years.

What Man Did He Mean

A few days after the elections the editor Of THE
NATIONAL REPUBLICAN, with realizing sense of
the import of the returns, drew the following pic
ture of the statesman under whose banner the
Republican party could go forth united to battle
"a man of the highest order of intellect well
versed in the science of government, long accus-
toned to public affairs, learned in constitutional
law, sound to the core on equal rights trusted by
the most exacting on questions of currency and
revenue, so pure and upright that not an enemy
has thought Of questioning his integrity, free
from all part in any of the exciting controversies
in the party, conspicuous for sturdy indepen-
dence of character that would guarantee him
against any control by or leaning toward any
tactlon."-Nep York SUMS Washington Dispatch.

NEW YORK, Nov. 19--whon Mr.. Edison was
asked for an explanation Of the extraordinary
electric storm OF Friday he said there was differ
ence OF electric pressure in different parts Of the
earth. III the earth at New York was at zero and
the earth Of Boston was electrified there would be

OF course, part of the earth, and the superabun-

there had been 10000 wires there would have been

amount of current which must circulate between
areas of high and low electric pressure in the

Remonstrance Against a Bad Habit

Remonstrance Against a Bad Habit.
The Philadelphia Press is terribly cx-
ercised lest Collector Robertson, of New
York, is to be removed. 1t says there is
a demand for this in some quarters. 1t
AYERS that "the class of politicians who
have no understanding of the moral
forces in politics and who imagine that
when things are going wrong it is only
necessary to turn the screws tighter, are
eager for the control of the custom
house. In their eyes it is a place for
plunder and machine for power" The
Press Historically screams that "such a
suicidal course would be as mistaken in
politics as it would be indefensible in
morals" 1t pleads with Secretary Folger
to spare the head of Robertson, and tells
him that "if the attempt be made to ac-
complish the removal of any officer with
out adequate cause he ought to resist it
with all his power" &c, &c. Now this
all looks very grotesque from paper
which thinks it treason to have opposed
1.-THE class of politicians who persuaded
President Garfield to remove Merritt in
the middle of term without cause and
20 appoint Robertson, who knew nothing
of the duties of the place. We do not
believe the meanest of the Presidents
enemies have the least fear that Robert
son will be removed. But we believe the
whole pack would sing hcsannas to him
if he would remove without cause every
official who disagrees with them. We are
opposed to any removals from office
because of any mans course at
the elections. We are opposed to
my prescription of men for not
having supported the party nominees.
We are for universal amnesty and more
perfect union. We only refer to the
Press's querulous remonstrance against
what it must know is not contemplated
in order to deprecate its temper and its
cant. "The class of politicians who
have shown themselves SO ignorant of
"the moral forces in politics as to sup
pose that the custom-house is "a place
for plunder and a machine for power" are
these whom the Press delights to honor.
They have seized the custom-house
in New York city twice within the past
four years, in the middle of collectors
term, in the hope of using its patronage
to build up nonresident bosses, and for
them or their defenders to say that such
n course is indeiensible in morals" is
to attack the character of both Hayes and
Garfield.
The President is not bloodthrsty. He
is not thinking of the spoils which the
anti-spoils men have grabbed with such
energy, and the loss OF which they so
much dread, for the reason perhaps that
Suspicion always haunts the guilty mind
The thlcf doth fear each bush an officer.
The Press and kindred prints would
consult common decency by taking a
rest in their abuse of the President until
he commits some official act which shall
seem to them Objectionable. TO be shak-
ing their fists in his face and daring him
TO do what they think is wrong is to play
the bully, and to be q common nuisance,
