The intense interest which prevailed
here, in the various State elections, has
given way 10 feeling of serene salts
faction among democrats, and CORE
spending depression in the ranks of
the administration republicans. More
interest was felt here in Virginia than
in any other state, because it was
thought to have a more important
bearing upon the approaching presiden-
tial election. The result there is not
very encouraging to the President,
whose only really distinct policy has
been the alliance with Malone. 1t
now looks as though the Arthur dele
cation promised by Malone, to the re-
publican national convention would not
be such a powerful factor in the DELHI
erations Of that body as was once an
ticipatcd. The little Virginia trickster
and trader, for whom the republicans
in the senate and in the administration
paid such big price, is irretrieveably
crushed. Taking the results over the
country as whole, the general feeling
here is that Mr.. Arthur's boom has
been punctured. His chances for a
denomination are now considered lust
about as slim as would be his hope of
election if nominated. For weeks the
administration organ here has been
prcclaiming that the only hope of the
republicans for success in "a was in
carrying Virginia and North Carolina.
That hope has now become one of the
most forlorn prospects a political party
ever contemplated, and the leaders fully
realize it notwithstanding all their eff
forts at whistling to keep mp the cour-
age of the rank and file.
According to the signs cropping out
here there will be strong attempt
made at the approaching Congress to
erect two new States out of the Terri
tory of Dakota. This movement pro-
ceeds from a bitter sectional warfare
that has grown up between Northern
and Southern Dakota, the latter of
which has recently framed new con-
stltutlon preparatory to her admission.
The northern men declare that the
convention that framed this constitu-
ton was fraud upon the people, mas
much as not one in twenty of the voters
Of the Territory were given opportunity
to vote upon the question of its author
ization. Meantime the capitol build
ing at Bismarck is rapidly approaching
completion, at cost of about a quar-
ter Of million of dollars. exclusive of

THE ELECTIONS.

There is not much to add to our
election news of last week, and neither
party has any great cause for "crow.
ing" The Democrats got little the
best of it. The defeat of Billy Ma
hone in Virginia is good thing, and
no true Democrat cares much about
Butler. We lost Pennsylvania by
about 1900, and saved New York by
the skin Of our teeth, when we might
have had 80 or 100000 majority, if it
had not been for the "cussedness" of
such men as "Boss" Kelley. The
elections show one thing, that if the
Democrats want to win next year,
they must be up and doing, and quit
fighting among themselves. If they
do this, the republican party must 60.

The Democratic Column.

The democrats now control 20 states
and the republicans IL. A short ses-
sion Of the new congress, and good,
honest reform work will increase the
democratic strength in each one of
these. Then let the democrats nomi-
nate a tried and true democrat for the
presidency and the great victory long
looked for will be won, and by so
decided a vote that there can be no
possibility of a reversal of the popular
will. In the states reckoned as DEM
ocratlc we have not included Kansas
Or Michigan, which are as much DEM
ocratic as is Massachusetts to-day
Those states have democratic govern
ors, but there is no permanent demo-
cratic supremacy in either Of them, and
they are more than likely to swing
back fairly and squarely into the re-
publican column at the next presidenti-
al election. Without them the demo-
Gratis have almost complete sway in 23
states, which cast 250 electoral votes,
or 40 more than majority of all the
votes in the electoral college. With
the possible exception of Ohio, where
the democrats, under the lead of an
able and upright statesman, are in
complete possession of the government
for the first time in Az years, there is
not state in the list which the DEM
ocrats cannot carry next year if they
are but true to themselves and those
great principles which Thomas Jeffer-
son laid down for their guidance. If
they persist in chasing after dema-
gogues and will O. the wisp politicians,
and in casting aside principle for ex-
pediency, they will give the rotten re-
publican party another lease of life.

Arab Pasha in Exile.

Mr.. A. M, Broadley has lately re-
ceived from his former clients, Arab
Pasha and his companions in exile, says
the London Times, several letters CIV
ing an account of their condition. Nah
mould Sami Pasha, the nationalists
prime minister, writes that he is now
in good health, and devotes all his time
to the study of the English language, in
which he has already made SO much
progress that ho hopes to be able to
correspond in 1t in six months. Toulba
Pasha writes in less cheerful tone.
The climate of Ceylon, he says, aggra-
Yates his chronic asthma, and he de-
spairs of living long unless he can
change his place of abode. Arab writes
more frequently than any of the rest,
his letters are models Of elegant Arabic
writings, and the sentiments he ex-
presses are moderate and digniiied. He
says he is determined to respect the pa
role he has given, and trusts the British
government will show n reciprocity of
conduct toward him. He considers his
parole to have been given to England,
and accordingly he looks only to Eng
land for the carrying out Of any stipu-
lation existing in his favor. In his last
letter, which is signed both in Arabic
and English characters, "Ahmcd Arab,
the Egyptia, No. $50 Natural, Colom-
bo, Ceylon," he says: 1--WE all regret
to inform you that the Egyptian gov
eminent has not kept its promise made
to Lord Dutferin of defraying the nee
essary expenses Of the wives Of four of
us from Egypt to Ceylon. In our pres
ent circumstances we are unable to in
cur the cost ourselves, and this matter
causes us pain and anxiety. We shall
appeal to the British government on
this subject" Arab himself directed
this letter in clear and bold round
hand, and the progress he has made in
English in the midst of the troubles GER
tainly attests both his intelligence and
his determination. The children of Ali
Fehmy Pasha, Mahmoud Fehmy Pasha,
and Abdelai Pasha are receiving an
English education in the government
schools.

The Rochester Robin.
BY BENZ. r. TAYLOR.

IA Rochester robin has built its nest on thu
main frame OF an engine Of the New York

Rochester and Dewitt, but the robin occupies

A Rochester robin aghted one day
On bar or brace of the wonderful thing
That mills the swift miles like grain in its way.
And flies like bird, though 1t never takes
wing.
And the Rochester robin said TO herself,
what place for nest, 30 strong and SO
warm,
AS nea, as n pin and as shiny as deli,
Up out OF the danger, in out Of the Storm"
And her mate by the roadside struck up the
old lay
He sang for the apple.trce blossoms to
The grlish white blossoms In pink applique,
France.
The heart of tho engine was cold as a cave,
Ihe furnace door grim as the crate of O
And dumb as the church under Switzerland's
wave,
Like tulip of gold the glitterins bell.
Then the stoker swung wide the furnace door,
said,
Summer weather to-day" Then rumble and
roar
Played the waters hot pulse in white clouds
overhead.
II am sure 1t will rain" he sang to his mate,
1T thundcrs and lightens, but work right
along,
The house but half done and the season SO
late
How cloudy it growsl" So he kept up the
song.
And the twain fell to work, bore tlmbers OF
straw,
And fibers Of wood caught on thistle and
And wrought them all in by the Lords "higher
With threads of the laces some maiden had
worn.
Then S clang swung the bell and the warblo was
And the crazy sparks flew as if the storm
tore
The small consultations inside and asunder,
While the engine along the steel parallels
The birds watched it all with innocent
wonder
"Who ever saw stars in the day time be.

Then she cried, and he said. 1.-THE gale is go
think the whole world must be blowing
awayv
She, trusting, replied, Cannot last very
long"
And kept on her work far sweeter than play.
To and fro, far and near, their frey world went,
The cup Of their loves trimming over with
life,
And the engineer stood at his window intent
And watched the steel rails the red breast
and wife,
And declared by his engine and honor no
