A GREATLY ovERRATEp PARTY

The Mail and Express, one of the few
decent papers in New York, supporting
MIR. BLAINE, assuming rs do all Ropub.
lican papers and orators, that the Re.
publican party destroyed slavery. then
proceeds TO remark that "the Mormon
organs feel and know that the Republi-
cans mean to destroy the surviving
twin relic Of harbarism."
This is the old cry. Why hasn't this
twin relic" been destroyed ere thisY
The Republican party has been In power
for quarter of acentury,ln its platforms
al least the sworn foe of Mormonism.
and yet this new and corrupt creed has
grown all this time with amazing
strength and swiftness, aud to-day
laughs at the puerile philippines of the
Republican Statesmen and tho Repuh-
lican press.
This reform is Just like all other re-
forms by the Republican party-in
mturo. They are always meaning to do
something. 1t is constantly their pur-
pose TO do 10 aud so and accomplish
great things, but tho rotten spots still
inject the body polite aud the putre-
faction isyoarly spreading and threaten
ing the very yitals of the Government.

Mormonism ere this, il the best evi
dence that IL never intends TO destroy

pretended devotion TO reform of anv

LET US KNOW THE WORST.

/ The cholera at Marseilles and Toulon
and through the South of France seems
after all to have been much worse cpi-
demic than the public was allowed to
suppose from the daily accounts sent ia
. the press. At no time did the cable dis
patches indicate greater mortality
lhan twenty to twenty-five daily at Mar
settles. and less number even at Ton
Ion. Twenty-Five daily out of popula-
ton of 10000 or 100000 was not such a
desperate state of affairs, and the other
nations appeared to take that view of it.
1t looked from the reports as if the
disease was not Of a virulcnt type, or at
least not widespread.
This view of the case has been upset
by the report Of CoNsrL MASON to our
State department, published yesterday.
MIR. MASON says that the death rate has
been at about sixty day from the first
appearance Of the cholera, ranging be
tween fifty and sixty, and now fallen to
about forty daily. In other words. IL is
shown by Consul MAsoN'S report that
the mortality has been twice as large rs
the press dispatches chronicled and
really of an alarming nature.
This is manifestly most rcprehensi-
bic manner Of dealing with this plague.
II the Epidemic was virulent or wide
spread and carrying of, double the
number of victims reported daily, the
public were certainly entitled to know
that fact. To attempt to allay fears and
prevent possibly IN other quarters more
vigorous precautionary measures was
criminal and crime against the
