The malady under which John Mccullough
suffered was necessarily fatal, so that the hope
ful reports Of his condition which appeared last
week deceived no one but those who wished to
- bind. Yesterday the inevitable end came
amer lapse Of about two weeks from the time
when he was taken home from the insane
asylum to die.
II would be too partial an estimate of the de-
Ceased to rank him among actors OF the very
nrst class. He was not . Booth, Q Forrest or a
SalvfnL But by hard work Joined to fine
natural qualifications he attained high place
In his profession, and In certain parts that fitted
his powers he could bear comparison with any
actor that treads the stage. At this time it may
be said, not unkindly, that his early and dis
tressing death furnishes q striking illustration
of the truth Of a recent remark Of Salvini on the
dangers which Turk in an ambition on the part
Of the actor to shine in society. Mccullough,
relying on an iron constitution, "burned the
candle at both ends" and hence now lies in his
coffin at an age when his arr and his fame were
but just maturing.

frost, the questions of the winter have begun to
be discussed, and 1t has become apparent al
ready that the democrats cannot too quickly
appoint steering committee" TO regulate their
progress. The spirit OF dissension is already
abroad, and great tact will have to be employed
the party is to be kept united. The first strug-
gle will come in the organization of the House.
Mr. Carlisles reelection is conceded, but the
party is not 80 well agreed on how the import
ant committee places may best be filled by
him. II he were 10 retire Mr.. Randall from his
commanding position at the head of the appro-
priations committee there would be trouble at
once, as there will be also if any step be taken
TO relegste Mr.. Bland to a back seat. And yet
If these two members are clothed with the
powers they held in the last Congress, many
will hold that reform In the tariff and the cur
rency is fatally blocked at the start.
Manton Marble has spent the summer and
fall, 1t seems, hobnobbing confidentially with
royalty and ministers on the silver question.
Whether he has been able to do more than
those who In one capacity and another have
been sent to Europe before TO induce the trans
Atlantic nations to adopt our views on this
matter, yet remains q diplomatic secret. All
we can do Is TO wait and see what the President
has to say about 1t in bis message to Congress.
Meanwhile 1t is best not to be too sanguine.
Possibly Mr. Marble has had q more gracious
reception than his predecessors, but until some
more definite information as to the results of
his missiSu appears, one may entertain a sus-
picion that Mr.. Marbles European travels, like
the South American commissions rambles,
were Of very limited value to the state.
John Kelly has formally relinquished his
leadership Of Tammany Hall and retired %
private life, owing to his shattered health.
Kelly has been by no means q model politician,
In an elevated use of that word, but even his
enemies have admitted his personal honesty
and morality. His great failing lay close to his
distinguishing merit. He was courageous to
obstinacy and vigorous to tyranny. These
characteristics served a useful purpose when a
daring leader was needed to rescue Tammany
