A Model Democrat.
New York Tnbunel


 Governor Hill made a speech at the Delmonico Andrew Jackson dinner last evening. But those who are in the se- cret assert that this speech in question was not the speech he had originally prepared for delivery on this high party occasion.

 MT. President and Gentlemen: I am Democrat; thou, Tlden, art a Demo crat; be, Sterling, Is a Democrat: We, on our sido of the table, are Democrats: they, Tamm6nyites, are Democrats. Let our aims, brother Democrats, be to see to II that government of Democrats, oy Democrats and for Democrats may not perish from the earth-from the earth which we want.

Well spoken.

The hOstiles, We are informed, are worn out and want to surrender. IL is the old, old story, over again. After
 nearly year of murder, outrage and plunder, these ravaging beasts find themselves hard pressed and desire to be taken into training again, Until such tune ss they feel once more ready to pur- sue their bloody work. There can be but one possible course to follow with these heEds, whenever they come into the power of white men and that is very simple one-the end of a rope. We will not, for moment, SO far insult General Crook, as to believe that he would again attempt any treaty or half measures with these red-handed murderers. The peo- pie of this territory have exhibited marvellous patience under great ana ire quent provocation, have heard them- selves publicly branded as outlaws, have seen their families butshered and their property destroyed. They have seen all this and have stayed their hands. There Is, however, one ihinS which would prove the last straw to break the back of their endurance and that would be the attempt to barley with these mOn- sters III human shape, who have wraught all this havoc.-TOmbstOne Eptaph.

A Cautions Judge.
rFrom tLe Detroit Free Prcss.


 A resident of the State of Michigan having murdered a whole family and been convicted by due process of law and sentenced to imprisonment for twenty-f five years, thus appealed to the court.
 "Your Honor, l WAS in jail one year pending this conviction. That time should be taken from my sentence"
 The Judge agreed to thIs, and the prisoner contInUed:
 "I planned this crime sixteen years ago. Justice demands that my term be shortened that much"
 This was also agreed to, and the prisoner said:
 This only leaves me eight years to serve, and as l can gain year and a half on this. and as my friends are sure to move for pardon, 1t would seem foolish to go to .he expense of sending me to Jackson"
 Thereupon :he Judge became indig- nant, and not only refused to sbste the original sentence, but stated that be would not put his name to the petition for pardon.
 While a murderer seems to have more rights than an innocent man, he should exercise little judgment and modera- tion in the prisoners box.

WAsHISGroS, Jan. lS.-COmmittees from the several travellers associations have been making arguments before the Commerce Committee Ot the Senate and House m support of bills that have been introduced by Senator Logan and Rep resentstive Beach to prohibit the assess ment of taxes Tn the shape of license fees upon them by the States and cities in which they sell by sample. There was decision in the Supreme Court to- day which caused them al to pack up and take the first train for home. The State of Michigan imposes a tax of S3UO year upon drummers. A traveller from whisky house Tn Chicago brought akuit m the courts of that State to secure return of the fee he paid. The case was deIrded against hIm in each of the State courts m which 1t WAS tried, and he brought 1t to the United States Su- preme Court upon a writ of error. This court to-day reversed tine decision and decided that all such laws are uncon- stitutiOnal as Congress alone hSd power to regulate. inter State commerce. The decision applies tO every State and Ter ritury, and the drummer5 will no long CT be compelled to pay license m other States than those in which they reside.

 The very cream of what may be terme d the colored aristOcracy of the city wss out in full force one night recently at a kettledrum and ball held in the nato- rum on Broad street, the scene of many fa- hioDsble festivities. The entertain ment was given privately by nineteen representatives of families of the most prominent colored caterers Tn the city, who were the paiTonesces of the affair. It was gotten up. in the general style of the old exclusive assemblies, and only the "very incest people" and the oldest families" were invited. No names were admitted on the list except of caterers n the very best circles. Some of the belles and beauties were veritable Cleo pstras and Hebes, and, taken all in all, showed more points of true and mixed race beauty than could have been en- countered at most of the balls or large social festivities where the beaux and swells ot the evening usually officiate at the supper table. As they enter ed the beauties divested themselves of their rich wraps and opera closks, displaying full evening dress. In some instances they took of their fur-lined overshoes and put on white satin dance ing slippers. Trains were generally worn, and most of the dresses were cut low, sometimes showing handsome or naments on the neck. There were some very stunning dresses, with punches of ribOns in the latest style. A great many flowers were worn, and some car ried bouquets. The men were all in full evening dress, some with the latest style of silk facing on their dress coats, others with white vests, and few with diamond studs. A number of the more matronly figures looked very effective with fresh white gloves covering their arms partially, but with the neck and shoulders exposed. Some of the young ladies wore articles of attire painted and embroidered by themselves. There were twenty pieces on the dancing pro grsmme, winding up with the Virginia reel.
