VIOLENT and spa.modic efforts to start

made. AS might be expected they inva.
riably prove futile. The objects sought by
such movement have been iavorite aims
of the democratic party for years, and ii
they cannot be accomplished within the
ianks of an already powerful and fully
equipped organization, the people know
full well it would be time thrown away to
attempt their accomplishment by kind Of
a side-show arrangement. The principal
reason OF the failures of the democracy will
be found to be the want Of unanimity
among the leaders and masses as evidenced
by the existence from time to time of their

succeeding.

ARGENT communication from Washing
ton, appearing in reputable journal, gives
the capital city of the nation "a fearful
b asst" to use common expression. The
statement is made boldly and emphatically
that the novelties IN Washington life are
disgusting and startling. The writer pro-
ceeds to insist that unless man has swim
died the government or made land grab,
or has been divorced, il is very hard for him
to be much thought of, and the capacity to
live on ones debts, as THAcKERAY expresses
it, is passport. A great many thing
under which men sink elsewhere, give them
lift socially in Washington, Such facts
are hardly to be believed. but they are re-
pested so often and from such reliable
sources AS to force us 10 admit, though with
regret, that the American capital is one of
the corruptest in the world.

The OImstead Parallel.

Meeting of the Commissioners Yesterday
 atorange to Inspect the Layout.
 The railroad commissioners on the Olm- stead Parallel, latter known as the New York, Connecticut and Eastern Railroad company, met yesterday at the Derby depot, in the town of Orange, at 10 a. m. Engineer Schubarth and Attorney H. R. Parrott, of Bridgeport, met them there. The Select men of Orange and officials of the borough of West Haven were also on hand when the party started on their westward journey. The programme for the day was to inspect the line to Milford, reaching there in time for dinner, after which proceed to the Housatonic river, and thence to Bridgeport. The first point of objection will be represen- tetives of towns on the line, and by the con- missioners to the numerous grade crossings The line of the road was surveyed at time when the subject of grade crossings had received comparatively very little attention and the lines will run as lines always have been run in this State until within the last two years. Recent leg islation. although it authorizes the railroad commissioners to allow grade crossings when in their judgment done practically, prohibits such crossings where they can be possibly avoided, and the commissioners, complying with the spirit of this legislation, have given notice to the Olmstead as well ss to the Hartford and Harlem that the number of grade crossings must be greatly reduced. This will compel the Olmstebd people to make alterations in this line,
