The Reason WHY

Instead of folding The drapery of his
couch about him and lying down to pleas,
ant dreams, Thurlow Weed continues to
write for the Tribune. His last, dated
November Sd, contains this passage;
1.-THE republican party is being dis
honored every day by the IIubbell COM
mlttee at Washington. 1t is deep re-
proach that system of plumber of that
kind should he going on at the very mo-
ment when the republicans are disclaiming
it. To show the inconsistency of the adj
ministration, it allows the Hubbell COM
mittee to 20 on with Its eXactions while il
continues to prosecute GeAeral n. M. Cur
It's for doing, two years ago, Just what
General Arthur did for twelve years
There IL too much reason to believe that
one OF our best men has been sacrificed in
Judge Folgar, who, but for the prevailing
opinion that his nomination was brought
about by the interference of the Federal
government, would have been strong
candidate, as, il elected, he would make an
excellent governor. lfhe should be beaten,
no one would doubt that his defeat was at
trlbutaDle to the influence referred to,
against which there is strong popular
protest. General Arthur has been so long
accustomed to party manipulations that
he could not keep his hands of. If there
had been less time devoted to presidential
iunketing and to the classification of the
presidents private papers, and fewer cabi
net meetings on railroads and in hotels
the present outlook of the republican party
would have been much more satisfactory

A Remarkable Voyage.

Two intrepid young oarsmen, Messrs. Ba-
rucci and Ferrari, have Just accomplished
remarkable voyage. They started from
Rome, each in his row.boat, or rather skin,
and descending the Tbcr to the Mediter-
ranean sea, crossed 1t TO the mouth of the
Rhone. They then assembled this river to
the Saone, from whence they passed into
the canal du Centre, the river Loire. the
canals Briare and LONG until they met
the Seine, which they descended to Paris,
arriving here on the 10th of Octo.
Der, just exactly three months from the
day on which they started. They were
greeted on their arrival by large number
o. Italians and the members OF the "Socie o
Nautique de la Marne," who warmly con.
graduated them on the successful termina.
ton of their picturesque and dangerous
voyage. The skiils in which this long Jour.
ney was made are barely fifteen feet long,
They have perfectly water.tight deck GOV.
ering at both ends of the boat leaving only
a, sufficient space in the centre for
the oarsmen TO sit, This space is
furnished with canvas SO arranged that Il
can at VIII be drawn around the rower's
bust, Thus equipped, they dciied the
rough sea which, without this precaution,
would inevitably have swaniped them. As
may DO easily imagined, there was but little
room in such tiny vessels for the slowing
away Of baggage. This indispensable
nuisance was prosaically sent on by rail to
the various cities at which the gentlemen
stopped. Only u few cordlals and other
necessary articles, in case of accident, were
taken on board with them. Tho two boats
were named Scylla and Charybdis, which
names OF dire omen did not prevent them
from accomplishing u successful voyage.

The Passion Play Again

is announced that the Passion Play
will be presented in this city during the
winterunder the supervision of the author,
Salmi Morse. The authors of the announce.
ment are likely to find that they have
promised more than they can perform.
The sentiment of the community, as ex.
pressed in the prevention of Mr.. Abbey's
undertaking two years ago, is unalterablv
opposed to any dramatic personation of tho
character of Jesus Christ, and although n
yerltable saint might be chosen to
take the part, the play would still
DO revolving. The mayor of the
city will hardly venture, and probably
will not be inclined to disregard the pre-.
valllng desire of the people of New York
to have the presentation of the Passion
Play prohibited. The persons engaged in
the enterprise will do well to ascertain
whether they can obtain license for their
play before they incur the expense of con-
verttng the old armory building in Twenty
third street into theatre, or, like the adj.
venturer who erected structure near
Central park for the introduction of Span-
ish bull'hghts, they may find after thew
have parted with their money that an OF.
tertainment may be too outrageous to re-
ceive tolerance in New York. The time is
not likely to come when this community
will abandon its belief that the character Of
Jesus Christ is too sacred for representation
upon the mimic stage New York Herald.

THE London Saturday Review has got us
down to a fine point when itcomes to speak
of our little national debt, about which no.
body in this country concerns himself.
English views of America are always inter.
esting. The Review remarks; "The United
States might well DO excused for looking
upon their debt with Unconcern, Geo
graphically they are so distant from Europe
that they may regard themselves as sale
from aggression, and therefore exempt from
the necessity of keeping up great anna
ments. Moreover, the growth of popula-
ton and wealth is so rapid that in gcner'
alton or so they could reasonably reckon
upon the debt becoming relatively so light
as no longer to be a matter of serious con-
cern,n
