How the p tom T.il Out of Spring.

VaASstSSt
At the mouth OF Cottonwood Creek, in
Gentle Valley and about ten miles east Of
Oxford, there are some bali dozen warm
springs. Ono Of these has been used for
bathing purposes for many years by those
living In the vicinity, and alEo by pleasure
seekers. 1t was about 100 feet in diane
ter and circular in form and very deep,
and the temperature Of the water made it
delightful Tor bathing purposes. On
Wednesday night last the people living
near 1t were startled by loud roaring
noise like the rushing Of q huge body OF
water over a cataract, and in the morning
it was found that the bottom had dropped
out Of their bath tub. All that remained
Of the spring was hole in the shape Of
gigantic basin about fifty feet deep and
containing about four feet Of boiling wa
ter at the bottom.

Manitestly It is the purpose of the lead
ers of the Republican party to keep alive
the sectional issue in politics as a factor
around which partisan prejudice and per
sonal hatred may r%cvolye in the next
national contest, There are a few thought
full Republicans who have not supposed
1t possible-cousidering the strained eff
forts during the last ten years to keep
alive, as n distinctive issue. the animosi.
ties of a civil war which closed twenty
years ago-that any further attempt could
be made to arouse the passions of men
upon questions which a whole generation
OF voters, having no personal reccollections
Of the war for the union, know very little
about, aud indeed care very little about,
except as they, in common with all good
citizens Of the republic, rejoice over the
successful issue of the contest and a union
preserved. But the voice Of Republican
leadership is again for war. The speeches
of Senator Sherman and others wLo have
taken the stump in Ohio, Iowa and Penn
sylvania, filled with exaggeration, malice
and bitterness, and the platform OF Iowa
Republicans, savage in its denunciations
of men and its appeal to sectional pre-
JUDGE, show a deliberate purpose to keep
the country in an agonizing fever Of part
san strife, scarcely less fatal TO all prosper
ity and permanent peace than war itself.
Is it not a fair criticism of such leader
ship, blinded as it is by the malevolence
Of craftsmanship, and controlled wholly by
the personal ambition of men who seem
to have no adequate conception of sound
craftsmanship, and of the real needs of a
nation Of peace with the world, to say
that a party SO conducted, confesses itself
without capacity to formulate measures
and advocate principles in harmony with
the advancing spirit of the age2 As a
matter Of simple policy it would seem as
if Republican leaders themselves would
see that the course they are pursuing
must be fatal to their party, but their own
blind zeal appears to make them obllylous
of results and of the real sentiment pre-
vailing in the rank and file of the party.
Thousands of Republicans who have sin
cerely stood by their party from principle,
are weary of sectional agitation. Be
%lieving, as from their point of view they
may, that the party has in many ways
served the country well in the past, yet
they see the folly of dragging old and
dead issues, like ~carcasses of dead men,
into the paths of living and moving gen
e%rations whose duties relate to the present
and the future, and they will turn their
backs 10 the wild apostles Of graveyard
politics, and 60 with any IartY which
stands boldly. face to face. with the living
questions of the day.

Ihe Burlington Free Press has good

to n pringdeld Republican note on de-
foresting in New England, whether
ermont has lost much timber in the
