veterans on his way to attend the Army of
the Tennessee reunion, "let me tell you
little army story. l was at Vicksburg.
When the work there got down to pretty
close range the Johnnies showed us what
kind of sharpshooters they had They
were clever fellows. those sharpshooters
and they would pick man off as quick
as wink If he once showed his head up.
They were always on the lookout for that
sort Of game, and even at night It wasn't
safe for man to get up on top of the
earthworks
I'm our company was an Irishman. Tim
MCCARTHY, and Of all the dared he
was the worst ever saw. lie was pas.
sionatel, fond of smoking. and If any
body would give him cigar at night he
would light 1t and climb up on the works
and puff away. OF course the ashes would
obscure the fire, but every once in awhile
he would knock the ashes off, leaving the
bright fire for the sharpshooters to
aim at
At first noticed that with all his
dare-deviltry there was something OF
method In his madness, for he would
never climb up until the ashes had formed
over the fire Then when he knocked
the ashes off he would hold the cigar al
arms length. Whenever he did this
crack. crack, crack. went the guns of the
JOhnnies and we could hear the bullets
whistling over our heads. But after awhile
he became so reckless that he would knock
the ashes off his cigar while holding II In
his mouth. Nobody ever saw such nerve
as that man had. but not bullet ever
touched him, though several went through
his hat and marked his clothing

American ladies don't look up to Paris
with the old respect They feel instinct
lively that something is going wrong at
the head of the fashion world The truth
Is that there Is no longer any center here,
no one person who gives the tone to dress
as did ugenie under the empire OF
course. as an american prefer to find
france under republic rather than under
monarchy of any kind, but that arts is
gradually ceaslng to be the pope of the
miil.ners and dressmakers Of the civil
led world is unquestionably true, and Is
fue TO the fact that a president. or rather
: PRESIDENTS WIFE has pushed from the
hronc the queen and the empress
Doubtless the luxury of the Parisienno
Is not so great now as II was under the
empire. but the falling off In the homo
trade is partly compensated by the In.
crease In foreign customer. In Paris
alone the drcssmaking trade represents
the movement OF $50 900, 900 year and
gives employment TO some 20, 600 women,
aud many Of the elegant society women
spend from $50. 900 to $50. 900 q year on

/ 1t is becoming more apparent every day
that the conversion Of many of the Mug
wumps from Republication was not sin
cere. There are many Of them who are
already trying 10 get back IL the ranks OF
! the party, while good many others are
anxious TO be invited back and treated
| like prodigal sons. The better class of
the Mugwumps those who have charac-
ter sufficient to lift them above party
aflliations-appear to be very well con-
tented with the position they occupy, and
Will doubtless maintain their lndepen-
dence in the future.
1t has heretofore proved to be danger
Gus thing for one to be a haIf-hearted
Mugwump. A majority Of the Republi-
cans who took the New Departure" in
1872, and tie whole number OF these was
not very large, soon crawled buck INTO
the ranks Of the party, and when they
once got safely back they became the Bit
terest OF the bitter. They tried to Guido
the most rabid Republicans, or to out
HerOd Herod.
The Mugwumps cf 1884 now occupy a
very dangerous position, If they fail to
show the traits of manhood for which
they have been credited. If they recede
from the high ground they have taken
they are lost. The Republican party is as
corrupt as it mas ever been. The old
bosses are at it's head in every State. Its
campaigns are carried on by the same old
machine methods. The Mugwumps who
10 bacE into the party must abandon their
professed ideas of reform. They viii be
looked upon as having made themselves
ridiculous by protesting to have high
principles which they did not possess.
No doubt there arc many of them who
have tired of the reform mama which has
been bestowed by tho administration and
who sigh for the flesh pots Of the Repub-
llcan Egypt
There are a good many very influential
Mugwumps, however, who do not pro
pose to return 10 political bondage. They
will never again be slaves of the Repub-
lican party and its corrupt bosses. They
may be Just now in the wilderness OF
doubt, but they can see at least the out
lines of honest government and admins
tratiVe reform.
Savannah morning news. [volume] (Savannah) 1868-1887, 1885-09-27

Some OF the political cranks who pro-
fess TO see signs of the breaking up of the
Solid South are bound to turn up every
few months and relieve themselves of
some of their pent up wisdom. Unfortu-
nately they almost Invariably meet some
innocent reporter or correspondent who
drinks in the apparent words of prophecy,
as well as the facts on which the predlc-
tions are supposed to be based, and who
hastens to place them before an anxious
country.
A prominent Southern oficiap has
recently been at Washington, and has
shown those who would listen to him ia st
how the alleged disafectlon among the
Southern Democrats is said to be taking
shape, and how the revolt, especially in
Louisiana, that is to throw some one or
more of the Southern States back into the
hands Of the Republicans, is to be organ
lied.
This self-constituted wiseacre seems to
found his predictions almost entirely
on the fact that q few OF the
wOuld-be political bosses of the
Eustis class are disgruntled on account of
the hrm position the administration has
taken in reforming the civil service. Re
liable reports from every part OF the
South, however, show that there 10 no
Democratic disaffection that amounts to
anything. The party is strengthened,
rather than weakened by the complaints
Of soreheads and spoilsmen, and the Re
publican party is certainly weaker than
II has ever been. There is scarcely a
doubt that the Democrats will gain a
sweeping Victory in Virginia In Novem-
Der. That will, doubtless, be the finish
ing stroke to the Republican party in the
South.
The Southern people have seen too much
OF Republican rule, and suffered too much
from it, ever TO be willing to submit TO il
again. Southern Democrats may quarrel
among themselves, but few OF them Will
be found who will contribute directly or
indirectly to Republican success. 1t did
not take the Republicans long during the
last campaign TO discover that they had
very little chance of csrrying any
/ Southern State. The Hon. Church Howe
was so soon convinced OF the hopelessness
OF his mission TO the South that he viz
tually abandoned his headquarters at
Nashville some weeks before the election.
/ and carried back North the main bulk OF
the Doodle with which he was intrusted
by the Republican Campaign Committee
/ for use In that section. 30 break IN the
/ solid south need be looked for AS long as
\ political parties remain as they are.
From present indications they will not
undergo much change for several years
Savannah morning news. [volume] (Savannah) 1868-1887, 1885-09-27

The Administration influence.
Under Republican rule there were few
il any Republican conventions held Ia
the more important states, in which the
influence of the administration was not
eXerted in behalf Of some favorite aspi-
rant. Presidents, Vice Presidents, Cabi
net officials, heads Of departments, GUS
toms officials and all other Federal ohl-
GERS. and state officers from Governors
down, were members Of gigantic rings,
who were banded together for the pur -
! pose Of perPetuating their own power,
first, in their own party, and, secondly,
as against the Democratic party.
Appointments we're almost invariably
made in the interest Of these rings, and
few indeed were the officials who were
made such on account Of their fitness
alone.
Arthur, VINO was decidedly the most
dignided personally, and decent politi-
cally, fall the Republican Presidents we
have had since the war, did not scruple
in the least to use the influence and the
patronage Of his Office to promote the
fortunes and usefulness Of his personal
adherents.
The demoralizing effects Of the practice
above noted are well known. Not only
was the government looked upon as great
party machine, but its corrupt example
tended to demoralize the whole country,
until it became a maxim in many sections
that everything is fair in love, war and
politics"
The people OF the United States should
congratulate themselves that the above
state Of affairs, which would eventually
have led to anarchy had it been continued,
is at an end, thanks to the Democratic
victory Of 1884. spoilsmen in high places
under the national government, no longer
band together to unfairly defeat their OPP
ponents, either in the party conventions
in the elections. Even the enemies
the administration are forced to admit
that 1t had no hand in manipulating the
Democratic convention in New York, aud
no one will be SO rash and regardless OF
truth as to assert that 1t has interfered in
the party cOunsels OF any State.
Mr.. Cleveland received the Presidency
as a public trust, and he had, perhaps,
higher and nobler views,as to its responsi-
bilities and duties, than any of the Illus
triOus Presidents who have preceded him.
In administering the agairs Of the nation
and in dispensing the patronage of the
government he has held the scales evenly
between man and man, looking above
every other consideration TO the fitness OF
those who were candidates Cor official sta
tions. He has been oautiously-some
think too slowly-carrying out this great
policy OF doing away with par
tisanshiD in the public service, and
his progress has been substantial
if not rapid. Such a work cannot be per-
fected in a week, or a month, or a year;
but it is certain that it VIII be perfected -.
and that the time will come when all wise
and intelligent citizens of the Union will
look upon partisanship as q positive dis
qualification for public Office. Unless the
signs Of the times are grossly deceptive,
there is bright political future in store
for the American people.
