IT Is needless to remark that John
l.. Sullivan, the champion bru;ser and
head-crusher, is a Democrat, and his
fsats of pugilisn have made him a
great favorite in the party. When
with a flourish of brass bands ard ten
thousand attendants he was install led
in the rum business in Boston, he had
reaCh he'd the very acme Of Democratic
perfection, and had he kept Oh the
course he was pursuing he no doubt
would have become a strong political
rival Of Ben. Butler. But a change
has come over Mr.. Sullivan He tells
a reporter that he is heartily sick Of the
rum business and that he intends to
get out of it as soon as possible, when
he will no doubt devote his whole at
tention to the more manly and refined
business of smashing heads. RI this
decision of Mr.. Sullivan is carried out
he will have knocked ou his political
prospects in one round, and the Demo.
craCy Of Massachusetts which was be-.
ginning to regard him as the coming
man, will drop him with the words: a
bruiser yon may be, but our candidate
you cannot be.

wednesday,:

LaCeS and Gems have alb
sorbed more attention than
any other article of woman's
attire. Ancient lace wa S
made in six varieties,the old
est being "Cut work" " that
sprang from embroidery in
the twelfth century and real
ly formed a connecting link
between that and lace proper.
The small openings that
were cut out at first in Linen
Embroidery, in various COM
mon shapes, mostly that Of
t he Maltese Cross, We're
made larger and filled with
open-work stitches. This
hlled-in work, so much richer
and newer than any then
known, was directly appro-
priated for altar drapery, and
being merged into the Italian
Reticella, was finally super
ceded by the latter, which is
recognized at the first needle
made lace, the Venetian be-
ing the finest produced. 1t
was really the invention of
Italian nuns, and was extern
sively made in all the con-
vents Of Italy. Another day
we may talk about Point
Lace.
We opened yesterday a

The New Jersey Republicans.

The Republicans of New Jersey did
a good days work yesterday, by nomi.
mating Judge Dixon for Governor.
j Judge Dixon is an Englishman by
birth, but he is nothing the worse Of
that, after being schooled in American
/ institutions for thirty-six out of the
forty-four years of his life. He was
never a member of the New Jersey
Legislature, nor member of Congress,
and is consequently clear of any share
in the political johbery which attaches
to Mr.. Abbot: his Democratic opponent.
The only Office he has held is that Of a
Justice of the Supreme Court, being
appointed to that Office by Governor
Bedle, a Democrat, in 1875 Having
served out his term Of seven years with
distinguished honor and credit. In 1882,
he was re-appointed, by Governor Lud
low, also Democrat.
1t is said that he will resign his office
and throw all his energies into the
campaign, which, from present appear
ances, will result in his election.
The platform upon which he has been
placed has the true Republican ring
President Arthur is paid a deserved
compliment and there is no hesitation
in declaringin favor of a protective
tariff-one that will protect the work
ingmen and the great manufacturing
interests Of the State. With such II
candidate and such a declaration OF
principles the result in New Jersey
should not be considered doubtful.

1T Is A great pity that these German
national festivities cannot be held in
this country without being attended with
so many Objectionable features that are
repulsive to that state of morality that
insures good order, good society and
good government. 1t is also pity that
the Germans cannot be permitted to
hold purely German festivity in their
own way. The Germans, though fond
Of their national beverage which they
take i'll moderation when left to them
selves, are really not to blame for the
disgusting scenes of debauchery which
follow their celebration of a nationaI
custom in this country. Americans
and other nationalities only show thei r
weakness when they attempt to pat
tern after 'he Germans and losing con-
'rol Of themselves 60 off into extremes
that are li,gracetul.
IL Is a fact tha, although the Volks.
f. st is a German institution it is a rare
thing to find "A German intoxicated
this part, we are free to say, seems to
be left to the full enjoyment of our
American and Irish citizens, and we
will venture tha assertion that no class
Of people are more disgusted with the
sXcesses growing out of the Nolks-tes I
than the honest Germans the emselves.
Let those who are 20 ready to find fault
with Gerln;Si festivities hesitate and
lay the blame where 1t properly be.

LOUISIANA DEMOCRATS.
Exciting Scene az a Caucus of the state
Committee.-The Chairman Declares
the Proceedings Revolutionary. =

New ORLEANS, Oct 23.-The McEnery fac
tion of the Louisiana democratic state COM
mittee held caucus in this city yesterday and
determined to oust the present chairman, John
Fitzpatrick, who is opposed to McEnery. At
the meeting of the committee in the afternoon,
Fitzpatrick presiding, amid deafsning noise
and confusion Gen. Jastremski of Baton
Rouge moved that the committee reorganize
The chairman said that he held Office until the
next State convention and ruled the motion
out of order. General Jastremski appealed
and called for the yeas and nays, and was sus-
tanned by vote of 40 to 81. The chair decided
the motion lost a two-thirds vote being re-
quired. Mr.. Fitzpatrick said: 81 am chair
man and cannot be run out by crowd. This
is revolutionary and declare the meeting of
the State central committee adjourned"
While this was transpiring there was great
turmoil and confusion. A country member
here snatched the secretary's papers, but Mr..
Fitzpatrick declared they were the property of
the committee. Mr.. Fitzpatrick and twenty
five or thirty members then Withdrew.
congressman King, by permission spoke
against the present proceedings. He said he
did not think that Mr.. Eustace was elected
and wanted a committee of five, to wait upon
the bolters and try to effect reconciliation. A
committee was finally appointed to inform the
absent members of the time of the meeting of
the committee, so that they could return and
be present. The meeting then adjourned un-
til today.
The boting members, after their withdraw
al, held meeting, at which a resolution was
adopted to draw up an address to the citizens
of the State setting forth the proceedings of
the committee and their revolutionary action.

LOSS OF THE PRoTEUs.
Additional Report from lieutenant Gar
hngion-A Lot of Clothing and kations
Left for Greeley.

WASHINGTON, O3t. 23.-Lieutenant CARING
ton has made supplementary report in
answer to General Hazen's questions. Before
leaving the wreck of the Proteus ha and Lieu
tenant Caldwell and their men worked 81
hours in the running ice, carrying stores from
the foes to the shore He had insufficient
food and was without sleep, but they went
back to the land at the risk of their lives over
and over again. In the end only two barrels
of canned meats and few scattered cans were
abandoned, and the ice foe on which these
were had Aoated off two or more miles. Lieu
tenant Darlington left clothing for six months
and about 600 rations for Greeley's party at
Cape Sabine. He stripped his own men to the
barest necessities, one suit of clothing, one
change of underclothing, and so on in proper
tion. He took hardly enough to last through
the journey which he was obliged to make to
Upernavik in open boats, and when he reached
his destination some OF his men were exhaust
ed because they were forced to do the necessary
hard work and to suffer the exposure on two
and sometimes only one meal day. They
were unable to add to their stores by shooting
or capturing game, for game was not plenty,
and the whole party had only one shotgun
and Sc rounds of cartridges.
In answer to the question why he did not
wait for the Yantic at Littleton Island, Gar
lington says he understood from Wildes, the
captain of the Yantic, that he would probably
not venture across Melville bay to the island.
Knowing this, and desiring to communicate
with the government as soon as possible, Gar
lington determined to retreat South without
delay. He reasoned that to wait for the Yantic
two weeks to see If she did not come would
make it necessary to feed his men on the sup
plies that had been left for Greeley. Thenii
he could not retreat, he would be obliged to
consume Greeley's provisions, so that officer,
on reaching the place, would find, instead OF
food, only some more starving men for COM
paDy. Believing that the Yantic could not
come, and seeing what might be the result OF
staving. Darlington left record of his in
tended movements and started South to reach
civilization and help for Greeley as soon as
possible. 1t might be possible, he thought, to
get vessel and supplies and start back again,
but every hour was precious, and therefore he
did not delay for the uncertain coming of the
Yantic.

Increase of Money in the Country.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 23.-The director of the
mint has prepared tables showing the amount
of specie and paper circula tion of the United
States in the Treasury and in the banks,
and in general circulation on October l. The
6asfs Of the isst national banf Statement. pub
lished some time in July, there was an actual
net increase of money of all kinds in the hands
OF the people on October / last of $19, ,115, ,635
as compared with similar statement made on
October l, 1882. 1t is to be remembered that
the effects upon the national bank circulation
of the calls of 3 per cent. bonds were not seen
in the bank statement of July last. The calls
had not then begun to operate The comp
troller of the currency has demanded another
statement of the condition of the national
banks, which will show the amount of con.
traction in national bank currency, and make
an exact statement possible as to whether or
not during the year there has been any actual
net contraction of the currency. The comp
troller's preliminary figures of the contraction
OF the banking currency resulting from the
two calls of 8 per cents. which will mature on
December and December Is, are $4, SOC, 900
for the first call, and $8,000000 for the second
call. On this basis there will be a total ma
tional bank contraction on December 10, not
included in the tables of Mr.. Burchard, of
$l2,000,000. This, on the basis of Mr.. Bur-
chard's figures, would still leave an actual
net increase in the total circulation for the
twelve months of about $7000,000.
The Proposed Change iH Mail Service.
The commission appointed to readjust the
mail service will, it is said, reach conclusions,
which, if adopted, will require the expendi-
ture of million dollars. The commission is
said to be of the opinion that the delivery of
mail matter at both intermediate and termi-
nal points on railroads should be in charge of
the government. At present the mail matter
is delivered by the railroad companies at term
inal points at distance within one mile OF the
stations and at intermediate pOintS to within
forty rods of the stations. If the pest offices
are outside of these limits the government
pays the difference in the cost of transporta-
tion. The argument upon which this recon-
mendation will be based, if made, is that the
mails will be safer in the hands of government
agents. At present the mails are delivered by
depot hands without cost TO the government.
No serious complaints, however, have ever
been made OF the loss of mail matter in the
hands of the railroad companies

Dick, of Dicks Hotel, Houlahan, of the
Grand Central, Edward Taylor, Edward Troy,
Patrick Campbell. Mrs. Patrick Callahan, Pat
rick Carroll, Glover Warner and one Clark
were arrested on Oct. 10th, and gave bonds for
their appearance in court ON Oct. Goth. The
court was to have been held in the Town Hail.
but it having leaked out that the spy system
had been adopted to obtain evidence against
the arrested dealers, somebody took the trouble
to lock the doors of thu hall. Nothing daunt-
ed, however, court was opened on the front
steps, and all the formalities of Justices
court gone through with At certain stage
of the proceedings it was ascertained that he
chief witness was missing and could nowhere
be found. Search was made and court ad-
iourned for dinner. Then a new source of
trouble arose; every hotel in the village was
closed to the lawyers and witnesses of the
prosecution, and crackers and cheese, bought
by one of the defendants, was all that could be
obtained for a meal. Later, further post
ponement of the court was had. The absent
witness, it seems, was a person from out of
town, sent as spy to trap the hotel keepers
into violation of the Sunday Law. Thinking
he had succeeded, he reported his action to the
county commissioners, who ordered the ar
rests The defendants, or their friends, spirit
ed him away at the moment he was most
wanted, and today warrant granted by JUS
tica Hall of Bridgeport was issued to compel
his attendance. The hearing in the liquor
cases will proceed tomorrow.
