AITFY INSANE PAUPEGS

The State Board of Charities has called the
attention of the public and of the Commissioners
of Charities and Correction, in this city, to the
burden imposed upon the insane asylums of the
State by the number of alien insane paupers
thrust upon them. They state as known fact
that senilc dementcd and idiOtic persons are
frequently deliberately sent to this country
q from Europe" for the purpose of getting rid
of them, and they want to know if the laws of
Congress or any other laws provide for return
"ing such unfortunate helpless persons to the
sports or countries whence they came; and if
not what additional laws, if any, arc needed TO
effect this In the first place it is necessary to
prove that what is alleged has actually taken
Mace. If the facts are as stated by the Board
Of Charities there cannot be much difficulty in
obtaining the necessary evidence. When that
evidence has been obtained representations may
ot once be made TO the Governments of the
countries from which the insane paupers COM
MANNED of are sent, and there can be no doubt
that mon such representations those foreign
Governments will take steps to abate the nui-
sanCc.
Action of this kind has already been had with
regard tothc deportation of paupers and persons
of bad character, and the case is, if possible
stronger in the present instance. AS a matter
of course, all such deportation of luhatics is in
the nature of an illicit proceeding. and no Gov
eminent either would or could cOuntenance it,
though local authorities sometimes commit I'M
scrupuous acts, in the effort to shift their proper
responsibilities on to the shoulders of strangers
and the freedom of emigration to the United
States from Europe has tended TO encourage
that kind of smuggling of late years. The cost
of transporting alien lunatics and idiots to the
poit of embarkaton is proper charge against
the Government of which they are subjects,
and can no doubt be collected in.regular form,
though probably not without delay. The whole
question, however, should be made the subject
of strong representations tt the Department OF

of the ups and downs Of the ROAD.
A telegram from Chicago states that ConVeh,
ton Hall is to be enlarged tor the Na'i"n',
Democratic Convention, and that IA rearraneeu
Il viii seat 10000 persons We hope an ell
tbusiastic dyed -in-the- wool Democrat Will oc-
cupy each one of these 10000 seats, ana that
the consequent love-feast may be merry as
,pa,r;aee bell. Our Democratic friends have so
l;ttle fun during or after a Presidential cam
paign that it is only fair that they should make
the most of their convention opportunities.
Mr.. Beecher tells the Baptist ministers that
he intends 70 stand by the old Republican nag
but not by Mr.. Blaine. Well, it an Impossible
feat. The Republican party, acting through It's
fairly chosen, fairly acting delegates, has
placed the old Republican flag in Mr.. Biaines
hands. The post Office address OF the flag
will be the hands of James G.. Blaine, until
further notice. Hence it is simply impossible
for Mr.. Beecher to stand by the flag without
standing by the fag-bearer. SO far as this
campaign is concerned they are one and insep-
cradle, and the man who holds differently might
as well say that ne stands by Plymouth Church,
but not by Mr. Beecher.
The news from Washington is that Demo-
Gratis are insisting that Mr. Tilden must speak
out promptly and let the party know whether
or not he is to be considered Presidential can
didate. The demand would seem to be an emil
ncntly proper one. 1t must occur to every
intelligent person that Mr.. Tilden is treating
his party badly. He stands by and declines to
commit himself, although he cannot but be
perfectly well aware that nc is currently
reported "on the highest authority" to be
and not to be willing to accept the
nomination. His little game, of course, is to
control the action of the National Convention
to name the candidate in case he himself re-
| fuses to stand.

Tie School Of Mines Quarterly for May has an
article by President F. A. p. Barnard on THE
Neurological System Of the Great Pyramid" III
which the theories of Piazz Smyth. Taylor, and
their followers are thoroughly analysed and re-
futcd. The sartcle written before president
Barnard had seen Mr.. Petries work on the Pyramid
measurements but it arrives mt similar conclusions
independently. President Barnard scouts the idea
that the Great Pyramid was intended 10 convey
message to postcrity of any kind He says on that
uoint: "Nothng can be more palpably evident
than that il was the determined purpose OF the
constructors of this monument not only not 20 In
close in its secret chambers any messages OF any
kind whatever to future generations, but to render
it practically impossible that anything shut up in
those chambers should ever be known to mankind
to the end of time" The whole paper is a whole
some corrective to the dangerous fascination of cur
rent Pyramid fantasies. President Barnard is of
opinion that the only religion represented in the
Great Pyramid is the worship of Isis, and thinks
the socalled lunar evidence in tie measurements
bears out this theory.

convention and the party Some OF them are
now talking impetuously of revolt. Against
whom and In whose behalf is this revolt to be
dircctedf Ordinarily movements OF this KIND
are organized in opposition to oficeholders ana
machine managers, and are conducted in the
interest of the people. Is there any evidence
that the will of the people has been openly de-
fed in the nomination of Mr.. Blaine Is there
any evidence that the delegates In effectlng
choice on the fourth ballot misrepresented the
constituencies which empowered them to act IN
their name1 These are important questions
for the Independent Republicans to consider
for unless they can convict the delegates OF the
high political misdemeanor Of defying and mis-
representing the Republican constituencies,
there can be no legitimate cause for revolt. IL
will be revolt against the intelligence and VIII
of the people; and that is very different from
revolt against political managers in the interest
of the people.
Now what are the plain facts of the Chicago
nomination Simply these-that the Repubil-
cans of the North wanted Mr.. Blaine, refused
to have anybody else, insisted upon having hini'
and instructed their delegates to vote for him.
The movement began in Pennsylvania with the
spread through all the great central States to
| California 1t was not an Oificeholders cam
paign. 1t was not a prearranged scheme Oh
powerful political bosses" 1t was popular
movement. The people had been profoundly
moved by the assassination of President Gar
field, and on the first opportunity which offered
itself they insisted upon naming as his sue
cessor his Secretary of State and intimate
political adviser. whom they had long recoS
nized as the foremost man OF his party.
Mr. Blaine in their judgment was not only
! the personal representative of the lamented
Garfield, but representative American with
! ideas and a character broad enough for the
whole country. The Blaine movement got
its impetus and life and enthusiasm by con-
tact with the people. Even in the Presidents
own State district after district declared for his
rival. and in the Utica Convention the Blaine
| mon lacked only half dozen votes OF clear
majority.
The Northern Republicans wanted Mr.. Blaine.
| That fact is az clear as the midday sun. The
nomination was brought about largely by the
action of district conventions fresh from the
people. There were no forged proxies or unit
rules. no methods Of political coercion or official
pressure, no dsreputabe tricks or dishonest
practices The nomination expressed the VIII
of the great mass of the Republican voters OF
| the Northern States. a revolt against 1t would
not be a revolt against political managers, but
against the people-an open and Migrant DELL
ance of popular and representative institutions.

TO OUR YOUNG REPUBLICAN FRIENDS.
Some of our yO6ng Republican friends are apt

that the party as Il whole in Massachusetts,

from the following extract from private let
