It is useless for democratic organs to

by the British press for the success of
the democratic ticket, or to endeavor
to blind the people as to its signifi-

by the consideration when they 60 the

speaking, question of free trade

WHY did Mr.. Blaine cav in his
Twenty Years in Congress, that after
a two years trial of low tariff the peo.

Mr.. Blaine never put such a sentence
in type. This is probably what is re-.

Of things somewhat similar to the

yielding to the demands of the free
traders, committed tbe.grevious mis-

widespread disaster, and which
taught the American people-that is
those of them who are capable of be-

In presenting some cogent reasons
for The rejection Of the nomination
Of Mr.. Lamar, the Albany Law
Journal says, by process Of re-
construction Mr.. Lamar has been
admitted TO Congress aud Cabinets.
Against this we have nothing to say
These are political Offices in which it
10 eminently fl that the South should
be represented. But the Supreme
Court bench 10 not n political place
II is the one place in our scheme OF
government supp ,sed to be devoid
Of political feeling, bias, aud aspir-
alton 1t is the final safeguard to
our nation in the time Of the great
est strain upon our institutions, a
barrier against cncoachmeut and
revolution. To put upon this bench
a secessionist, who is not even re
poptcnt and who can not see that
he did wrong, is dangerous stretch
Of leniency and violent shock to
tho patriotic feeling Of loyal people
Mr. Lamar says Davis MAS no trail

himself. II that in bis way Of argu-
ing he is an unsafe man to judge
Of what is treason, and an unsafe
man TO be iutrusted with the sacred
duty imposed on him by this Office
A Supreme Court Justice ought to
know what constitutes treason, be-
cause he may be called on to pass
on the cases Of Anarchists OF some
time. There must be plenty Of loya
men, even of the South, at least mel
whose swords and voices were mol
raised to destory the Government
from whom satisfactory selection
might be made. We hope not to bt

New Years Weather.

j. William Tborne, OF Salisbury
township, Chester Co., writes to the
West Chester Village Record u.
follows: Tho winter Of 1878 will
be moderate one. Thoro will bc
but few cold days; scarcely any iu
which the.the mercury in the ther.
m omoter will stand at or below zero
there will not be more than three OF
four weeks of good sleighing, mosI
likely not that. The Delaware river
at Philadelphia will not be 80 firmly
frozen over as to obstruct navigation
There will not bo more tUsn one
heavy snow fall; most likely not any
that will obstruct tho highways
Spring will open more than unus-
ually early. Oats will be sown and
potatoes planted before the end ol
y March. - TAsEs VII be no irGsis sisr,ivE' u
oXspril Or May sufficiently severe to
ipjure the fruit. The summer fol-
lowing will be moderately warm with
enough rain to insure good crops of
grain and grass generally. The
crops Of wheat and corn will be more
than usually heavy. Apples, peach
es, pears and cherries will be abun-
dant and of good gu ,lity.
The basis of these predictions is
the well-known Astronomical fact
that the earth, the sun and the moon
occupy nearly the same relative posi-
tion every 10 years, and that the
heat Of the sun, the attraction Of tho
sun and moon and the revolution Of
the sun on it's axis, are tho chief
cause Of the movements in the earth's
atmosphere. 1t is true that the lar
ger planets exert q perturbing ipAu.
ence sufficient to modify those at-
mospheric phenomena resulting from
the. san and moon But this per-
turbing influence is scarcely felt
except when the attractive force OF
several planets 10 exerted in the
same or nearly the same direction.
Whatever the amount of this pertur-
baton it is suspec,ible Of calculation,
and no doubt will be determined in
no far future time.
