Republican Stealings.

The inordinate glee of the "grand old
party" organs, over the fact that the
money in the Treasury vaults panned out
all right when counted, will be toned
down somewhat when the constantly-in-
creasing record of defalcations under Re-
publican misrule is completed and made
public. The recently-discovered shortage
of $4,000 in the assistant-treasurer's s
Office at New Orleans, calls to mind the
$675, 900 defalcation in that city in 1867.
Then there are the stealings of the whisky
ring, the star route ring, the navy ring,
Howgate, ct aI., to be accounted for. 1t
is not SO much the money in the Treas
ury that the public is worrying over, as
the money that isn't there. Wait until
the books are thoroughly overhauled.-

A child's apprehension of religious
things is illustrated by an incident re-
lated by Chicago clergyman. "I hap
pened to know" he says, "a little girl
who has been so carefully trained in the
matter OF reverence for sacred things as
a minister's child could be. She had
been told that God was everywhere-was
with her night and day, outdoors and
indoors-and she seemed to understand
it. But on one occasion her little pug
dog was following her closely when she
did not want him with her. She stopped
as she was about to 60 through a door
and said with great emphasis: "Now,
Ponto, you go back. It's bad enough to
have God tagging around after me every
where without having YOu.'

A PICTURE.

In one Of Hawthorne's "Twice Told
Tales" but hundred times read, there
is one that impresses itself on the mind
more than the others. 1t is the one that
is known as the Prophetic Picture" 1t
tells OF painter passing through quiet,
peaceful town on his wanderings, and in
this town he found a young and
happy couple, across whose path
no shadow had rs yet fallen. The
man was in youth, and was filled
with youths strength and hope and
courage. The future looked bright and
held out hopes of long happiness, for the
past, the past that in most lives is filled
with shadows, unrealized hopes and am
bitions, pleasant dreams that have be-
came frightful Nightmares, had not came.
The bride was in those wears when
womanhood and maidenhood blend in
most pleasing harmony, and before the
cares of life had fallen heavily upon her
Upon her lily cheek was the blush of
the red rose, her eyes were lightened
with laughter, and in her heart were
the songs of JOY and gladness.
for as yet she knew not sorrow. 1t was
thus that the painter saw the happy
couple; but he painted them not as he
saw them. In their faces he saw the
future, for the look of destiny was there,
and that look of destiny he put upon his
canvas. The faces in the picture were
far more solemn than the faces of
those young people, for in them could be
seen care and sorrow and regret. Was
1t strange that they were not pleased
with their portraits, they who were SO
young and happy, and without care? To
the artist they expressed their disappoint-
ment, but he told them to wait until the
years rolled by, and in the future thev
would find the portrait true. And
SO it was; and that which
seemed harsh and unreal in youth.
was true and real in after life
And thus it is with man; the ioy and
hope of youth, in age are replaced with
sorrow and regret, more intense with
some than with others, but present to all.

they bear their fruits and their fruits are
bitter. The thing that is done without
heed may be the thing that will do most
harm, and he who has done it, upon him
will it rebound. 1t is the Biblical doc
trine that he who sows the wind will reap
the whirlwind. No matter on what the
ory these things are done, no matter in
accordance with what belief, they bear
the same fruits, for their seeds are wrong
doing, sown in carelessness. There NAV

tares will predominate, for it is their ma

are grown; and from a belief that God

have scrubs only if he breeds scrub

wav to produce runners is to breed rum

and the intermixing of the two produces

FEAR DISEASES.

The prevalence of cholera in Spain,
and the anticipation of the epidemic in
France, have attracted general attention
to the character of the disease now re-
ported as existing at Marseilles. 1t is
denied that the disease is cholera, but
what physicians pronounce a typhoid
type of cholerine. The latter is what
is known as ''fear" disease, in MOTTO
ing which one Of our exchanges good
medical authority pronounces akin to
the sudden cramping pain which young
soldiers feel in their first engagement
the bravest of them owning up to this
involuntary doubling up" as by collie,
when the bullets begin to whistle and
the shells to scream overhead. The
typhoid conditions are supposed now
adays to be due to bad air to sleep in
and polluted water to drink. Asiatic
cholera, on the contrary, it is pretty
generally held by physicians, must be
conveyed to the individual or the local
ity from an already infected place, and
is generally supposed to be brought by
individuals and not to travel through
the air or go through it unless carried
in clothing, etc. With ordinary pru-
dencc or extraordinary, such as was
exercised by that heroic correspondent
in Marseilles last year, who did not
even dip a toothbrush in the local water,
it ought to be easy to check the typhoid
cholerine. "rhe prison to which we
doom ourselves, no prison is" and the
poison to which we doom ourselves by
fright and foreboding need not be a
poison unless we choose. This know
ledge should act as sedative-a sort
of mental paregoric. But of course it
must be accompanied by prudence.
When the air is purified by having
houses and neighborhoods untainted
and absolutely clean, when the water is
either pure in itself or made safe by
boiling, the scares should diminish and
carry with them the dangers in this
species of insurance from fright.
However, plausible or reasonable the
theory to explain the existence of these
"fear" diseases, certain it is,that clean
illness and pure atmosphere are not
favorable conditions for any epidemic
whether cholera or cholerine. A reason
able regard to diet, personal and local
cleanliness, and proper sanitary pre-
cautions in and about the large centres
of population should be reliable safe
guards against the prevalence of any
epidemic akin to cholera in our Amer
lean cities.

THE respects shown to the memory
Of Gen. Grant by the colored people
indicates that they as race valued and
appreciated his friendship for them.
This gratitude SO plainly manifested by
the presence of SO many Of them at his
funeral, refutes the idea that they are
incapable of sensibility, and intellectual
progress. The fact is that they have
always shown much more sensbility and
apprehension than was to have been
expected from race 50 long cramped
and manned by slavery, and they have
exhibited, since they became free, a
remarkable power of self-help, and an
ambition to rise, which Of itself is a
strong aid to advancement. In the
present instance they have displayed a
commendable realization of what they
owe to the dead soldier, and without
the least pretence of ostentation have
evinced their esteem and regret by acts
of homage none the less grateful for
their homely simplicity.

marked that Gin declaring offensive

of Gallatin and Webster and Harrison,
and in enforcing those views he acts
upon the soundest principles of REFORM

tirely correct, does it not follow as an

What sort of code of political ethics
is it which holds that what is sauce for
the Republican goose is not to be re-
garded as sauce for the Democratic
gander? If offensive partisanship be

a Democrat. Gallatin, Webster or Har-
rison, would laugh at the proposition
that it was defensible to turn out Re-

partisan only to turn iii Democrat in
spite of the fact that his offensive par
tisanship was known and read of all

SECRETARY WHITNEY he's at last

factory solution of the main question at
issue between the Department and Mr..
Roach. The vessels are accepted in
their unfinished state, and the contrac-
tor is TO get his money for them, after
his representatives have completed them
according to the stipnlations of the
contracts. What arrangement has been
entered into with reference to the Dol
phin we are not informed, as the COM
promise agreement apparently relates
to the cruisers alone. Probably the
dispatch boat will pass into the hands
of the Department when the cruisers
are finished and the last payments for
them are made. The Government may
make an ostentatious display of energy
7eizing the vessels and taking charge

,promise cannot be concealed.

There has been some pressure to have
them removed earlier, but an Eastern
Shore leader last week explained why
this should not be done. He said I:
"Their retention or removal could not
affect Mr.. Germans chances, for his
canvass has been made already. The
aspirant for political honors on our
shore who would make his campaign
as an opponent of the senior Senator
would be showed under. But if the
President were to remove tenure Of
office iucumbents before the expiration
of their term the Senate would not con-
firm them, and those who hope to get
the places do not want the Senate to
turn them down. As to the smaller
places, such as the postofices, they are
being cared for quite promptly, l
think"

PASSING MADISON SQUARE.
The Throng of Spectators-A Picturesque
Glimpse of the Line.

The Throng of Speetators-A Picturesque
Glimpse of the Line.
1t seemed that the last height at
tainable by human hands in imposing
and majestic display was reached when
the grandest military and civic pageant
of modern times, perhaps of all times,
swept slowly and solemnly across the
broad spaces of Madison Square, the
heart and centre of the city. At that
moment Madison Square was the CEN
tire and nucleus of the greatest aggre-
CATION Of people ever known in Amer
lea. The throng was simply incalcula-
BILE, vast beyond comprehension by
numbers of units. You might as well
speak of a prairie wheat field by the
number of heads of wheat as to speak
of the throng by individuals.
In and about Madison Square every
place that person could stand upon,
crouch upon, climb to or cling to was
occupied, and one could feel the weight
of the presence of the other hundreds
of thousands that one could not see.
For nine miles the narrow channel OF
the procession ran through two vast,
crushing, crowding and climbing masses
of human beings.
From the street edge, maintained by
the police, the compact crowd took all
space. They packed the tenements,
covered all steps, stoops and balconies,
and filled all windows. They hung
upon lamp posts, and telegraph posts
were black with them, and swarms of
people covered the roofs, some of them
looking down from a height of from
ten to twelve stories. Windows along
the line of march were eagerly rented
at enormous prices. Balconies and
temporary stands sold at prices that
were simply amazing, and chance to
stand upon flight of steps was worth
from 81 to s.. Some single windows
brought SIS, and one balcony capable
of holding twelve or fifteen people near
the Hotel Brunswick, brought $500.
Pedders in the crowd sold hundreds
of foot stools about eight inches high,
and they were eagerly snatched up at
fifty cents each. People who were for
tunate enough to secure one of these,
and so elevate themselves above the
dead level of the crowd, were much en-
We'd by those who could see only the
horsemen and the tops of the folded
flags. The lucky ones were kept busy
calling out the names of the organiza-
tons as they passed along. A person
Of ordinary height a few feet removed
from the line of march could see very
little. Here and there he caught the
flash of plume at the time he heard
the solemn music and the tread of
marching feet. 1t is probable that
thousands who stood for long hours
hardly saw the procession at all, and
added to the difficulty was the fact that
