Shortly after the accession OF Mr..
Arthur to the Presidency Stalwart
Senator, dining ut Chicago with num-
Der Of gentlemen, was asked by 1ne OF
them II Arthur would carry out Gar
fields policy" al think it very likely
that he will" replied the Seuator.
"Garfiells only policy was to make war
on Republicans who were not his polili
cal friends aud to III Ike il lively for the
New York Senators. l think Arthur
will carry ont that policy 80 far as tho
New York Senators are concerned any

that his friends. anu not his enemies,

Tho TRriT Qus.tIon.

The. Republican party has free
traders, but 1t j. largely composed of
protectionists aud its policy is thor
oughly protective. Ths Democratic
party. on the other hand, has protec-
tionists, but it is largely composed Of
free traders, aud its policy is thoroughly
free. All Republicans know this fact.
All Democrats know this fact Now let
us see how this great issue Of the tariff
will be determined. a.t -..I s-..
The above is truthful statement
from the Richmond STATE, and now let
US sec II the leaders Of ths Democratic
party in Congress, have the honesty
and nerve to stand by its principles
and traditions, or whether, ,as corpora
tion tools, they will follow the lead of
those truculent members Of the party
who. i'll the last Presidential campaign,
when charged with hostility to that
abominable system, the only object
and result Of which, is to "lnrd.fat
monOpolists," like pusillauimous Peter,
thrice denied his Lord and Master be-
cause by the purity of his life and
teachings he had fallen under the ban
Of the corporations, monopolists and
scaliawsgs generally who in those days
Jared sumptuously, rioting in the ~eaIIh
Of p!undered people. ...... ...
From all such leaders, Good Lord
deliver us ! Let us have those to di-
rect. who. having knowledge OF the
just demands of the people. possess the
moral aud physical back. bone to stand
mp boldly i'll their defense. regardless
Of what becomes of the spoils OF office.
II such men can be placed at the head
Of the Democratic party and its adher-
enis fail to sustain them, then defeat
can only be only attributed TO indiffer-
ence, resulting from a demoralizing
familiarity with political aud social cor
ruption, and they will richly deserve a
continuance of the injustice from which
they suffer.

TIE body Of Albert Dickhut. young
m..n who was lost in the California
Coast range, about thirty miles from
Germantown, on the Srd instant, was
found recently, in what is known as
Grindstone Canyon, and within half a
mile OF where his party had cnmpcd.
II wRs found where he had fallen, and
40 doubt was hurt; and then died from
exposure, as the weather has been very
cold. His mule was also found, about
100 yards from where the body lay. bn.
alive, and evidently stayed all this time
with its dead master. AS the body had
been exposed about two weeks, it was
deem0d best to harry it where found.
MIR. Dickhut was within few days OF
thirty wars old.

Ir is reported from Washington that
the feeling in favor Of revision OF the
tariff, is daily growing stronger in Con-
gress. Judge Kelly. Chairman of the
Ways and Means committee. has modi-
fed his extreme views to the extent OF
admitting that revision is needed, aud
he intends to draft bill to that effect.
Low tariff members suy this contem-
plated move Of Kelley is II smart dodge
Of the protectionists to head of the
growing sentiment in favor OF revision.
Everything that emanates from the
protecticnists is suspected by the other
side, and the bill for tariff revision in-
troduced by Kelley, will DO as seriously
antagonized as though it embraced the
extreme OF the protection doctrine.
II is generally conceded that a majority
Of both houses favor revision, bu. there
are diverse views as to tho means and
methods that should be employed in
making it.

The distressing news is flashed across
the continent that President Arthur is
not going to marry Miss Freelinghuysen,
after all. This is very sad, indeed, but
the necessity Of narrowing the feelings
of people at this distance with such
melancholy announcements is by no
means apparent. However, now that
our sympathetic emotions have been
tapped, nothing can prevent them from
stopping over. II the aforesaid damsel
is still on the sunuyside Of forty, aud

REA5AN, Postmaster General OF the
Coniederacy and its Secretary aud
Treasurer, says: THE charge OF jeff
Davis stealing two and n half millions
is absurd and uufounded. For the last
seven years of it's life the Confederacy
did not have SO much money except in
Europe. When it was evident the col.
lapse had come, the money chests were
opened and the major portion OF the
coin was distributed i pro rata among the
troops in Washington and Georgia. each
person getting $40. There was about
S6G, in gold. So, ,OOo in silver coin
and $4,000 in silver bricks" This
story is confirmed 10y Other Confeder-

said:

II was. IL was over in South Caro-

sent me q challenge and 1 selected
