From the st. James Gazette.


Among MANY minor reforms which deserve
attention when London possesses better gov
eminent than it enjoys at present is that of the
language used in the public streets. The
coarsest expressions are constantly banded about
with an utter disregard Of common decency. On
such occasions as that OF yesterday. when large
crowds assembled to see the Lord Mayors
show. it is really a serious nuisance to re-
spectacle persons to be placed in a position from
which they cannot eXtrlcate themselves where
they are condemned to listen to language that
shocks their ears and outrages their feelings.
This is especially the case as regards women
and children-whose presence so far from eyer-
cising refining influence on the London
rough" seems rather TO produce the opposite
effect upon his temperament. and to render him
more coarse in his utterances than when he has
less need of self-restraint. Nor is the rough
alone an offender In this respect. Working men.
drivers of vehicles. public and private. and
others who would be indignant If classed with
the trough" frequently make use Of express
siOns. when addressing each other even in
friendly spirit. of truly Objectionable nature.
Until education remedies the evil ii might. per-
haps. be lessened by little wholesome inter-
ference on the part Of the police.

That new poet of more than ordinary talent
and promise has appeared in the person of our
townsman. Mr., Bonef, is we'll attested by the
very favorable manner in which his efforts have
been received by tho critics as we'll as by the
public at large.I To the readers of this journal
Mr.. Boner needs no Introduction, and his work
ne praise. since, quite respectable proportion
and some Of the very best of the three score
and odd titles constituting the contents of the
modest volume before Us originally appeared in
its columns. An undertOne Of sadness runs
through most of his efforts, and many
OF them are marked by this characteristic
to degree almost mOlOtOnous in effect,
but breathing everywhere a sentiment of deep
reverence for God and all His works. a strong
feeling of love and sympathy for humanity, and
hopeful. earnest aspirations for a higher and
purcr life. Occasionally, however, a theme calls
out touches OF quaint. delicate humOr, which
show that. though attuned to notes of sor-
row. his Tyre is capable of yielding bright and
lively strains when the mood inspires. But Mr..
BOner appears at his best when painting scenes
from nature. as he knew and enjoyed her in his
younger days among the fragrant pines Of North
Carolina. Of which state he is native born. This
IS Illustrated in the opening poem OF the taste
fully printed volume. entitled 'M0onriSe in the
Pines wherein the spirit and sentiment OF a
southern summer night are finely portrayed. It
first appeared in The STAR. but its readers will,
we feel sure. enjoy the opportunity Of reading
portions of it again:

The sultry day is ending,
The clouds are fading away.
Orange with purple is blending
= And purple is turning to gray;
The gray grows darker ana denser
Till it and the earth are one;

And the brief warm night is begun.
Now darkness heavy. oppressive
And Silent completes the gloom.

Win fragrance Of perfume,
For the land Is enmeShed and aDlaZe
With vines that blossom ard trail.

And feStoonlng the fences OF rail.

Heat-ightning flares and glOWS,
Niyidly tinting the Clouds that lie

As mystical light might shine
From under an ebon curtain
Before terrible Shrine.
And the slumbrous night grows late.
The midnight hush is deep.
Under the pines wait
For the moon; and the pine trees Teep
Great drops OF dew, that fall
Like footsteps here and there.
And they sadly whisper and call
10 each other high n the air.
They rustic and whisper like ghosts,
They sigh like souls in pain,
Like the movement Of stealthy hosts

The Springfield Republican believes
the recent attack upon the character of
OssawatOmie Brown in the North
American Review, by Chicago clergy
man, is the result of purpose to defeat
the placing of a statue of John Brown
in one of the Kansas inches at the Ma
tiOnal Capitol. 1t is to be hoped such
will not be the effect. In the history of
the Kansas struggle no man did more
to insure the adoption of constitution
by the state that prohibited the holding
Of slaves than John Brown. No other
person is better entitled to remem-
brance in the National CapitOl.-CleVe-
land Herald.
We ought to abandon the idea of pla-
cling in the National Capitol statue of
the old horse thief and murderer; a
man who was hung in Virginia for vio-
lence and murder; whose aim was to
precipitate civil war in 1859, time Of
profound peace. We are surprised that
any patriotic American citizen should
favor a statue for such a man.

read and write. The parents of 1856 are

cOlOred as white; as the cOlOTed people
have but One-thiTty-fifth of the pOpula-
tiOn, five times their quota of the con

THE Republicans have such fear of
Mr.. Tilden that they habitually attrib-
ute to him three-fOurths of the political
events that occur in the country. Ac-
eOrding to them he is always engaged
in nominating candidates that suit him,
and defeating those that do not. They
see his hand in every political pie. He
Is always present to their guilty con-
sciences. The last thing he has done, it
seems, was to work for the defeat of
Ben Butler in Massachusetts. This is a
pretty old lie. 1t appeared as a piece of
news in the Boston Journal some time
ago, and a piece of news is most always
venerable before the Journal gets hold
of it.-N. Y. Sun.

REPUBLICAN, journals are aiding Ma
hone of Virginia to inaugurate "bloOdy
shirt" crusade by yelpiDg about the
revival Of the shotgun policy" "in-
timidation," etc. These papers are
magnifying the DanVille riots; saying
the Democrats inaugurated them in
DanYille and other places. If any man
knows the facts about these "Outrages''
it is a man who lives in the State and
saw how the campaign was conducted,
and we presume that testimony from a
Republican Congressman of that State
ought to be conclusive and stop the
senseless chatter of the able Republican
editors who have been running the out
rage" business into the ground. Con-
gresham Dezendorf, of Virginia, is a
straight Republican. and as good Re-
publican as any man in the party and he
says in reference to these riots and
alleged outTages:
The Readjuster boss wanted the coun-
try to believe that the so-ealled riot at
DanVille was the cause of his defeat and
that the white people of Virginia had
inaugurated bloody crusade against
the blacks. No baser slander was ever
uttered against any people. 1t was a
peaceful and fair election. The Dan
Vile riot was the Legitimate 0utgrowth

THE Albany Argus says: THE fact
that the President is proposed for nOmi-
nation is not now questioned. The fact
that the latest Republican vote in this
state is made an argument for his nOmi-
nation is not questioned. His friends
assume that he will have no difficulty in
getting the nomination. Such assump-
ton is part of their case, and should not
be put at a value beyond that fact. With
the President will be the patronage and
the rotten borough organic ttiOns of Re-
publicanism in the South. The Pennsyl-
yania and New York machines will be
with him-subject to the necessity to
elect delegates in the districts. The in
terest of the official class and the thrift
of the cOurtiers of power will be on his
side. The repute of the President as a
trading politician will operate in his
favor also. Every one of these adVan-
tages, however, has a darker side. They
are all reasons in themselves which re-
pei reform Republicans"

THE Republican party will probably
be able to raise many millions of dol
lars for the Presidential campaign next
year. Indications are that the election
of 1884 is to be duel to the death be-
tween pampered monOpOlies and special
privilegists on the one side, and Repub-
liean government on the other. The
people will be called upon to decide
whether they will allow a minority
party to perpetuate itself in power
through the might of money, OF will in
sist on the right of the majority of legal
voters to change their public officers.

London has II terminal railway sta
tiOns from which no fewer than 2,2O2
trains depart daily. Nearly 1900 of
those leave between 10 a. IN. and 10 D.
m; 800 trains leave daily from one sta
tiOn. Referring to tho underground
railway, this wonderful line forms a
complete belt, or inner circle, around
the whole of the inner part of London.
Between harrington and MOOrgate
streets, SOS trains run every week day
nearly twenty-fOur trains an hour, or
one nearly every three minutes. The
Metropolitan Underground Railway Co.
conveys about 10000 passengers annu-
ally, or nearly 100000 per week. Great
and mighty are thy works, oh London.

MAHoNE's wall over his suppression
lays out an Irish wake. What troubles
him is the impending fate Of the poor
negroes, who were to be saved from
slaughter and led to the haven of forty
dollars and a mule, by following the
standard of the little rebel repudiatOr.
He gets scant consolation from the Re-
publican papers of the North, but we
suppose he can swing the United States
Senate as he pleases. That's some COM
fort left. Dezendorf's letter is a scath-
ing reply in advance to- all of MahOne's
les and slanders.-Pitts. Post.

AT Columbus last week, Friday, was
organized the Democratic Press AssO-
citation Of Ohio, where we met thirty or
forty of the brethren, who desire to cuI-
tivate more fraternal relations, with
a view to better cooperation and mutual
protection. 1t is a commendable move
ment, and every Democratic editorial
proprietor in Ohio should become an
earnest, active member, especially those
who desire the restoration of the Demo-
Cratic party to power and constitutional
justice and economy to prevail. 1t is
time Star route rule was ended and
squelched.

MALONE is the leader and the idol of
the Republican party. He gave that
party its majority in the Senate. With
out Malone and Riddleberger in that
body, there would be no Republican
majority. Arthur's administration gave
Malone all the aid in Virginia possible.
Arthur expects MahOne's aid to get the
Republican nomination for President.
The party, too, wants an issue, and Ma
hone is furnishing it. He is, then, the
MOsby leader of the Republican party,
The Republican party has. become the
MshOne-MOsby party. John Sherman
approves; Charles Foster will assist,
and Mckinley and the rest will hur-
rah for Saint MahOne!

THE PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION.

Next year will doubtless be warmly
contested. The party in power will not
yield without struggle. for the leaders
we'll know that once out, it is doubtful
if they ever regain power. Hence, it is
that they will strive to hold possession
of the government.
The Republican leaders we'll know
that they held power by means obtained
from being in power. The millions
swaggled through Star routes, whisky
rings, Credit MObilier, etc, along with
the campaign exactions from govern
ment employees, have furnished vast
sums for carrying elections. Hence we
say, when once out of power, the Repub-
lican party will be in a sickly condition.
No doubt the Presidential election
next year will be warmly contested and
Democrats should bear this well in
mind. The whole number of electoral
votes is 4O1, of which majority is 201.
The crushing defeat of Malone in ViT-
ginia raises strong presumption that
all the Southern States will go Demo
cratic next year. The unwillingness of
considerable body of the cOlOred vOt-
ers to any longer follow the lead of Re-
publicans who have so often deceived
them has a tendency to confirm this
opinion. The aggregate electoral votes
of the sixteen Southern States is 1853.
This is 4S short of the needed POI. Where
in the North can the 4S votes be found?
Let us name those States which, with
good candidate for President, and no
laundering in Congress or elsewhere,
will be reasonably certain to cast their
VOtaS for tho namOprafic nominaa.

THE PhiIadelphia Times remarks:


The political party composed of Edi-
tor GOTham and the late VIM. Malone,
of Virginia, has just been holding a con-
sultatiOn at Petersburg to decide what
it will do with these United States. The
first half of the party telegraphs that
the other half is in as good spirits as
could be expected after the result of the
late election, and that it will never,
never say die as long as there is an
Office to distribute in the Old Dominion.
The public is warned in advance that
Mr.. Malone is about to uncOrk the walls
of his wrath in an address with which
he expects to annihilate his Bourbon
enemies. He proposes to wait in dig
nified way upon the Republican National
Committee at its meeting in December
and give the members of that body to
understand just what number of cleo
tOral votes he can deliver to the Repub-
lican candidate for President next fall,
and ascertain if the committee are in a
trading frame of mind. Whatever the
committee may decide in the matter the
Republican candidate should make his
calculations to be elected without any
votes from the GOrham-MahOne cOmbi-
nation if he expects to be elected at all.
