The Pennsylvanians.

The Republicans of Pennsylvania will
observe that there are some Democrats
in that State. The revolutionary action
of the President in only allowing Mr..
Sullivan to hang on to revenue collec-
torship for twelve years very naturally
aroused terrible feeling among the men
who wanted Sullivan to continue holding
on. That great tribune of the people,
Mr. Bayne, was ready to die for the lib
critics of Sullivan. "Boss Mitchell was
ready to perish in the flames of great
political conilagration sooner than allow
Boss Cameron to dictate any more than
he did. The masses of the Republican
party are not quite sure why it is right for
Senator Mitchell to dictate and wrong
for Senator Cameron to recommend.
They do not quite understand how it
will reform the civil service for Congress-
man Bayne to interfere with the Presi-
dents appointments to Office, or why
Reform spokesman is so much better
than one of the old kind. Then
they remember how wrong it was last
year for anybody to oppose a President.
They heard great deal of the sacred
ness of the Presidential prerogative, and
they were told that petty Senators and
Congressman who got in the way of a
Presidents imperial progress ought to be
crushed beneath the wheels of the politi-
cal car of Juggernaut on which he rode.
If they did not all agree with the
Dnopion t1nnthn,1u fha,, ,NrA,Noon1
silencing opposition to Presiden-
tial Gar, they are somewhat be-
wildered to find the knavish and
obsequious courtiers of the Garfield
court transformed into Nihilistic ene-
mics of the mild and matter-of-fact
President of to-day. As wo said, the
Republicans who have been asked to fol-
low after these political tumblers and
harlequins now see the Democratic pro-
cession forming. The old Bourbon war
horses are prancing. The band begins
TO play. This will have the eff
feet to open the eyes of such
as have been browsing The people
of Pennsylvania do not yet want Demo-
cratic Free Trade rule. They of course
greatly desire to be avenged for the deep
damnation of Collector Sullivan's taking
of, but they will not glut their vengeance
until there is no longer Democratic
party. The Republican procession will
now form, and it will be great deal the
longest. Not for any man will it rally,
but for the party of the Union and the
party of Protection to American Labor.
With or without leaders, it will scale the
heights where victory resides. Bread
and-Butter Reformers, adieu.

The Naval Appropriation nuI.

The House Committee on Naval Affairs yester-
day had under consideration the naval appro-
priation bill. 1t was decided to oppose the pas
sage OF the bill in its present shape, and to use
every effort TO increase certain appropriations.
The only part of the bill that Will receive the sup
port of members of the Committee on Naval
Affairs is the second section, which empowers the
Secretary of the Navy TO dispose of all stores and
supplies that shall be found by boards of ap.
praisers to be unseryiceable for use in the Navy.
The committee will move TO strike out all the
legislation which the bill contains, and will
strenuously, oppose the clause which provides
that hereafter all promotions to the grade
of rear admiral on the active list shalt
be made by selection from the grades Of
commodore and captain, and no more promotions
TO the grade of commodore shall be made.
Among the remaining changes which the com
mttee will urge are the following: To amend tho
clause making appropriations for the civil cstab-
lishment ut navy-yards md stations under the
Bureau of Ordnance by striking out 81, 600 aud in
scrting In lieu thereof SIS 600; to amend the clause
respecting tie Washington navy. yard so as to pro-
vide for the maintenance Of that yard for general
naval work. In ills present shape the bill makes
the maintenance of the yard discretionary with
the Secretary of the Navy. The committee will
also endeavor TO amend the bill so that the Secre.
tary Of the Navy will be required to complete all
Of The unfinished monitors, and amendments
viii be offered providing for IN increase In the
appropriation sufficient 10 cover the additional

William Lloyd Garrison had to hide away
in garret in Boston to set the type for
his Liberator. To-day National Colored
