Planters are again complaining OF
sheep-killing dogs. Dogs have des-

Our remedy is a double-barrel gun,

The. alarm in and around Trenton
about smallpox was without much

case of varioloin. The authorities,

fears have disappeared and our sister

A Cyclone.

The astonishing revolution at the
North which gave the control OF thirty
millions Of people into democratic
hands. has been called a political cy-
clone. The name j. significant. and
should be indicative Of the work TO be
done by the Democrats.
In tropical countries there are GER
tain years when ell things droop, and
wither. and stagnate. All thing, that
are dry become parched to ashes; al
thing. that are moist become fostering
corruption, The atmosphere reeks
miasmia ami death. Men and animals
stand gapeing for air, though each
breath inhales poison.
Then all eyes are fixed upon the hori-
zon. all hearts yearn for the appearance
Of tie little cloud no bigger than The
size Of a mans hand''-which shall
rapidly swell into a black roaring, rush
in2. whirling. crashing storm,-a cyclone
that sweeps everything before it. A
few may be hurt, a few may be ruined,
but the general effect is marvellous.
The land breaths again, vegetation
springs forth ike magic, the earth is
purified, the birds begin 10 sing, and all
is well.
Now, The twenty years Of uninterrupt-
ed power by the Republicans have
gradually polluted the country filling
all channels OF government with reek-
ing corruption.-whose stencil ascended
to the clouds, and blackened the Ameri-
can name around the globe. Such re-
| suits almost inevitably follow a long
lease of power to any party, Blu a1e
particularly certain to flow from contin-
uous Republican administration, because
that party being by nature aud by IN
reckless. and arbitrary has long felt that
it might adopt any course. or any ism,
and condone any fraud with utter impu-
nity. Ii seized the Presidency III 70
BY fraud. it ousted Democratic members
of Congress by shameless exercise of
power to strengthen i~tsclf.it joined with
the Prohibitionists in Maine, Kansas,
and Iowa and the Anti-Pros. in North
Carolina. 1t Joined with the Repudia-
tionists in Virginia, and against the
same class in Tennessee. 1t joined the
Greenbackers III several States, and
howled against them in all the other
States. And the object, of course, was
simply to maintain its grip upon the
200, 900 fat offices.
1t is not to be denied that the Demo-
Gratis have tried many similar discredit-
able ~eXpedients to carry their point.
But it is equally true that the National
policy OF the Democratic party is more
conservative, constitutional, economi-
cal, and trustworthy than the party or
faction, now in power.
Hence the people have arisen en-
nasse. and swept the land with a revo-
lution-a cyclone! Let us hope that
within a short period the whole world
will admit that America has been true
to herself and her best interests, by the
change.

The Investigation into the facts at
tending the loss Of the Jeanette. now in
progress at Washington. has developed
plenty of proof that Lieut.. belong was
unfit for his post, a. commander OF the
expedition. The trouble probably arose
from the tremendous popular hurrah
with which the JedHette was started on
her long and p~erilouS cruise. The news
paper praise, the fuss and parade on
leaving san Francisco. etc. seemed %
turn his head. He became a martinez.
or petty despot: and lorded it over his
fellow officers in Il needlessly offensive
way. He began by requiring everybody
to strip naked for eXamination-a very
offensive thing 10 deceptly raised peo-
pie. Lieut.. Danenhonr objected; and
belong thenceforward treated him
coldly, and finally removed him from
office, and placed Melville, who was not
a commissioned officer, in charge. 1t is
testified that even when the ship lad
sank. and when the three boats were in
/ great peril from the storm, belong
| stopped he boat to wait for Melville's
boat. and demand t. know why he had
let Danenhower take tn. ittlicr. De
Long also grew offended at Mr.. Coliins.
II of the minor officers. and frequently
annoyed him,-once making him throw
! away one of his two overcoats. lie al
so suspended Mr.. Newcomb from duty.
and thus lowered linn before the sailors.
Ii is known that DeIong had become
50 cross that when the ship sank. the
other officers did not even venture to
ask him Il they might uy to save IL OF
the extra whale boats.
This WAS carrying Discipline too far.
Commanders ike Napoleon and Lee
knew that Where extreme sacrifices are
to lee undertaken. there must bc a
blending oIauthority and equality.-the
leader sharing the rerils and approcia-
ting the feelings OF hi, men though al
ways careful to show that he is Their
master as well as their comrade.
