The CITY Of Columbus Disaster.
Our Washington dispatches say that
the circumstances connected with the
loss Of the City OF Columbus are to be in
vestigated at once. 1t is proper that
there should be an early investiga-
ton. There is general anxiety to know
who, if any one, is responsible for the
disaster. The story that the quarter
master dashed the wheel and aban-
doned his post for short
time is not credited by captains Of
coasting steamers now in port. The
agents in this city Of the line to which the
lost steamer belonged say that the story
is not reasonable. They point out the
fact that the pilot house was
warmed by steam and the quarter
master had no occasion to
90 elsewhere to get warm. They say,
also. that it is improbable that both the
officer of the deck and the quartermaster
should have been absent from their posts.
Admitting that the story that both OF
these men were absent from their posts is
not worthy Of belief, and assuming that
both men were attending strictly to their
duties. is it not difficult to account for
the accident? The night was clear.
Cav Head light, and even the shore
could be seen. The vessel was
over two miles out of her course. If the
officer of the deck knew the locality could
he not have seen that the vessel was run
ming towards danger some time before
she struck on the rocks: 1t is to
he hoped that the investigation will make
clear that which is now clOuded in mys-
terry. and that it will appear that the dis
aster was not due to negligence.

SENATOR BROWN.
An Incident in His Career

WASHINGTON Cor. PhikadeIDhid Record.
Eyes, he's a good lawyer" said Geor-
gian, while white-bearded Joe Brown was
speaking in the Senate on pOlygamy the
other day, 'and a good politician, al
though he will never be President. He is
an illustration of the growth possible to
every man in this country. His father, a
poor farmer in the poorest part of Geor-
gia, was not able to give him and his
brothers much education. He has edu-
Gated himself When he was elected
Governor of Georgia, in 1857, he sent a
special message TO the Legislature eX-
pressing his inability to understand how
a bank with liabilities exceeding its avail
able assets could make its books balance.
A friend had to explain dOuble-entry
bookkeeping to him before he could under
stand this perplexing problem. He is
shrewd. though, and of course he has
made great progress since. l remember
a characteristic incident which occurred
in 1876, when Brown was getting into
the Republican party and making
stump speeches throughout Georgia in
cracking up reconstruction. Two or
three young lawyers, including myself,
thought to catch the old man by pOking
some questions as to the cOnstitutionality
of the reconstruction acts at him. We
prepared something like a dozen ques-
lions, which we gave to the District
Judge. We didn't like to ask them d.
rectlv ourselves. l remember he spoke
in the old Court House, and he spoke
well, too. When he got through the Dis
trict Judge said he would like to ask him
few questions. Old Brown said he
would be glad to answer them, washing
his hands meanwhile in invisible water,
as he always does, you know, when he
rises to speak. The old man read them
slowly, and then said, in his deliberate,
distinct way: Gentlemen, l would
answer each of these questions in the
Affirmative We smiled the smile Of tri-
umph. The Governor had established the
unconstitutionalIty of the very acts he
was defending. But, gentlemen said
the Governor, washing his hands again,
what are you going to do about it?' This
was unansWerable."

Conferences of CoIored Men

There is a dissatisfied and unsettled
feeling among the leading negroes in
Florida with respect to their relations
with the Republican party. They think
that they are not treated with the con-
sideration, in the division of patron
age. to which they are entitled,
and they are contemplating
new departure. Quite a large number
of them will meet in conference at Gaines
Vile on the 5th of next month, to deter
mine upon a course of action that prom
fses increased advantages for their race.
1t is probable that the movers IN this con-
ference have a grievance OF some KIND or
an axe to grind, and, doubtless, all VINO
expect to attend it are Influenced by a
selfish motive. Whatever the causes may
be. however, which suggested the confer
enee. il is certain that this and other SIM
liar conferences which have been held in
different parts of the country lately, indi-
cate that influences are at work gradu-
allv changing the character of the polltI-
cal ideas of the negroes, and weakening
their allegiance to the Republican party.
A faction of the negroes in all the
States may at first assume an independent
attitude and seek concessions in exchange
for their voting strength, but eventually
a very large part of the negro vote viii be
controlled BY the Democratic party.
When that time comes doubtless there
win be marked party changes IN every
state where there is large negro popu-
lation.

Like a Whale.


Over thirty years ago the Chapman fam
iIy. well known on the Pacific coast, had
a floating theatre on the Mississippi river.
Uncle George Chapman and wife were
fond of relating stOies of their experience
of their floating playhouse. Mrs. Chap
man often asserted that the happlest days
other life were spent in the floating theatre.
Among other things she related that
on one occasion. while the play OF ''Ham-
let' was in progress, an actor playing the
part of POlonius, who was waiting his
cue to go upon the stage, made use Of his
spare moments in angling. He had just
cot a famous bite when he was called to
the stage, upon which he ran, holding his
line behind him in his hand. Presently
that part was reached in which Hamlet
saws. "Methinks it is like weasel" lit
is backed like a wease," replies Polonius.
'.Or like a whale?" questions Hamlet.
every much like a whale" returns Polo
MUS, AS he pronounced these words the
actor felt that he had hooked his game,
and, suddenly giving his whole attention
to his line, he hauled upon the stage, be-
fore the eyes of the astOnished audience,
famous catfish, all alive and kicking. The
fish brought down the house, and also
Hamlet. to whom the landing of the SEM
blance Of whale was an incident most
unexpected.

Democratic Harmony.

There are yet few otherwise good
Democratic journals that are ardent
advocates of continuation Of the war
tariff. Some of them have been very die
tatorial and Incorporate in tone, and one
not well posted on the drift of popular
opinion on this subject would think, on
reading their Nominations, that any at
tempt on the part of the party to do any
thing in the direction of tariff
reform would inevitably lead
to disintegratiOn, and consequently
to irretrievable disaster. Some OF
these papers seem to be very uneasy lest
they should he ruled out of the party,
while a few appear to court that fate, ana
anxiousIy await the opportunity for
new political alignment. Neither class
is likely to be gratified. Both the great
political parties are marching right along
to the battle field of 1884. The Democracy
demands reform in every department OF
the public service, while the Republicans
are fighting for retention of the official
control OF the government, the loss OF
which means the total destruction OF the
party.
There is no material division in the
Democratic party. Whatever differences
of opinion there may be as to the advisa-
biIitv of making the tariff question pos
tive issue, probably not more than twen-
ty-five members of Congress are
really opposed to reduction
of the tariff. Mr.. Randall himself
is not essentially variant from
the majority of the party on
this subject, While leaning towards
the protective idea, he candidly
admitted that reform was necessary.
over half of the votes cast for Randall
were cast by avOwed advocates of tariff
reform. Cox was openly in faver of re-
form. Carlisle was chosen as represent
ing an active agitation Of the question.
1t has been discovered, as it might have
been known all the time. that the tariff
reformers are not in a dynamite conspiracy
against the business interests of the coun
try. They are not free traders, as has been
charged. They propose to act with moder-
alton and Judgment, but they propose to
act. not merely to advocate prin-
ciple. The party is gaining in the respect
and confidence of the Independents who
hold the balance of power. 1t is having
accessions by the hundreds. Leading Re
publicans are coming over boldly and not
a man has deserted its standard.
There is no intention to rule any Demo-
crat out of the party. It has platform
broad enough for all true Democrats to
stand on. There are only two parties in
the country. One is the Republican
party, openly IN favor of a tariff for pro-
lection. Tho other is the Democratic
party, openly in favor OF tariff reduction.
The issue between the two parties is
plain, and there is no reason to fear lack
of harmony in the Democratic ranks.

A Point Republican Organs are Try
ing to Make.

Racause two Democratic Representa-
tives have introduced bills to repeal the
civil service law, some of the Republican
oroans are sure that the Democratic party
l. onposed 10 the law. Mr.. Shaw, Of Hi
nois. introduced one of the bills, and Mr..
CLAW. Of kentucky, the other. Mr.. Sha"
saws that he did not consult with any one
respecting his bill. He is opposed to the
law. and TO any civil service law, and he
was guided by his convictions when ne
introduced his repeating bill.
Mr.. CLAW says that he is not opposed TO
a civil service law, but be does not Ike
certain features of the present law. FOR
instance. he does not think that an appli-
cant for a 5000 position should be com
nelled TO pass an examination IN algebra,
spherical trigOnometry and analytical
geometry. because the duties Vi
government employees of that class
do not require them to have knowledge
of subjects of that hind. He proposes TO
introduce a civil service bill which Will
retain the leading features Of the present
law.
Mr.. Shaw and Mr.. Clay do not repre-
sent the Democratic party if this matter.
They represent only themselves. If their
bills ever come up for consideration no
doubt they will receive fair amount Of
support. The truth is, the civil service
law is obnoxious to the politicians of both
parties. tt r0bs them Of some OF their
importance. The annOyances connected
with patronage are very great, but Con-
oressmen are willing toput up with them
for the sake of the power which patronage
riyes. II a COngressman's influence
amounts to nothing in the great depart
ments of the government, he ceases to be
REGARDED as Of much Importance 10 a very
large number Of his constituents.
The civil service law IS also
obnoxious to those who are looking for
places under the government. The great
BODY Of the people. however, those VINO
are not looking for office and who are not
disturbed about the dignity and import
ance Of Congressman, favor civil ser
vice law. The present law would not
have passed had it not been for the strong
public sentiment in favor Of it.
II is safe to assume that the bill OF
neither Mr.. Shaw nor Mr.. Clay will get
through Congress this session, if ever. 1t
is NOT improbable that the law will be
modified somewhat. What the sentiments
Of Congressmen with regard to the law
are will be pretty clearly developed when
the appropriation bill, making appropria-
tions for the civil service commission, is
considered.
