Republican Tactics.

Chicago has been chosen as the place
fer holding the next national Republi-
can convention, which is called to meet
an the Sd day Of June next. The key
note to their campaign thunder has
been sounded by the national commit
tee and the representatives OF the
Union league. These politicians, like
drowning men catching at stfaws, have
seized upon the recent decision of the
Supreme court Of the United States in
declaring the civil rights bill uncanati-
tutiOnal, as pretext for again raising
the bloody flag, after these many years
of peace and quiet throughout the land.
Under the leadership of the notorious
Gorham and the traitor Malone, they
have been diligently manufacturing
kuklux outrages to order. For the par
pose Of creating war Of races through
out the southern States they have sen
enemies of the worst character am
the negroes of that section to rsype'
end -ecrgaEizs tho Union league, and
uncer the pretext Of protecting the ne
gro "A tho enjoyment Of his civil rights,
inci.e the ignorant blacks to outrages
and riotous conduct, and from these
disturbances send to the northern press
f.ctements calculated to fire the people
o. tho north against the south, and thus
get nps sectional campaign. On this
hangs ths hopes of the Republican par
ty for success. The power and utility
Of these secret organizations in politics
they fully understand. Ia the strait
10 which the party ID driven at the
Present. it will not scrrple at anything
even to endanger tho perpetuity Of tbs
republic itself. That they have no rea
love for the Negro no one will pretend
fusthsr than to serve to keep and main
tain them in power. They would a
readily take the Cinnamon for their al
iy, is they could but utilize him for th
came purpOFe. This fac. was fully &c
rnonesra.e2 by the party action en- tn
Chinese restriction bills. The Repub
l.can politicians fear to go before th
country or the square issue rendered [
them by the election Of Carlisle az
the laws proposed by the Democrat
leaders for the regulation of the raj
road mOnopolies, revision of the tari
and reformation of the civil ssrvic,
Their only hope to escape these issue
is to cncite sectional hostilities and 4
rect public attention to the south All
utter the cry, "we saved the Union" t
blind the eyes Of the people to tt
source Of wrong which is plunderin
and robbing them OF their substance.

A HanpY Ending.

Shortly before o'clock the other
morning milk-wagon with red wheels
turned into Charlotte avenue from
Woodward At the same moment a
mUk-wagOn with view Of the Iosc-
mite on the cover turned into Charlotte
from Park
They met.
The driver Of one had long nose aud
a melancholy look. The driver Of the
other had fat face and was minus two
front teeth.
They stopped.
The driver of one turned red and
green, and his eyes flashed and his
hair stood up, and there was murder in
his eve. The driver of the other seemed
to sink down into his boots, and he
looked wildly around for club.
"You hyena!N yelled the first.
You calf!' was the prompt reply
At that moment a policeman cameup
and remarked that if there was any row
going on he wanted to take a hand in,
I'm crush him. howlcd the one

Then the melancholy driver of the
milk-wagOn with the red wheels told a
story. He had courtcd a girl in the
suburbs for five years. They loved and
were engaged They were to have been
married this fall, but ne with the YoSe-
mite landscape came along. wearing a
new brand Of paper collar, smoking a
seyenty-tiye-cent pipe and using real
hair oil on his locks, and he won the
girls admiration and affection, She
had left the old for the new.
And I'll pulyerize HIM howled the
rejected.
And til leave him corpse chirped
the accepted,
By and by they agreed to leave the
settlement Of the ease to the officer, and
both made a solemn promise to abide
his decision.
"Wo,l. said the officer after deliberat-
Ing awhile, "a girl should marry where
she loves She evidently prefers a man
with two teeth gone to one with long
nose Still, the rejected has taken her
on two excursions, given her fifty

"My decision is that YOU must allow

There was war Of words over the
decision, but the one finally gave in,
and the other accepted, and tie milk
changed cans and the men shook hands,

the officer, 'Why should two men fight

The object of IN extended education
is to regulate and assis, the growth of
all the faculties with reference to the
perfection of the individual, but this
must also be in subordination to the re-
lnlions of the individual to the sooict y
in which his lifo's work Is found The
perfection OF the individual is not his
ideal perfection, but only his perfection
with reference what he is to do. The
practical question in the higher educa-
ton Is therefore the question of the
agencies by which this result is to be

The Philosophy Of Summer Vacations.


Those exceptional beings who have
caught the true secret OF going away
from home to keep cool and have Il
good time do not move in battalions
upon a given and conspicuous point.
They strike out in lightly-equipped
squads and bring up in uuadvcrtised
picturesque retreats where 1t isn't nee
essary to bother about clothes and
where nature isn't stared out of coun-
tenancc by the braAen and insis,cnt de-
vices OF civilization. There are yet
such places in plenty for those who
care to discover and occupy them, and
the roads that lead to them are not long
nor difficult nor expensive. The phil
osophy OF summer vacation, rightly com.
pretended, does not depend upon the
mere distance which one is able to place
between himself and daily contact with
the heat and burden of his particular
