THE REPUBLICAN VICTORY.

We clip the following from the Lon
don NesUs of Nov. s.
President Cleveland has been defeat.
ed, and the choice of the people for the
new President has fallen upon Gener-
al Harrison, the republican candidate.
This result was not entirely unexpect-
ed. 1t has been evident for the pact
few weeks that the fortunes of the
fight were beginning TO go against the
democratic party and their candidate.
When the President took the unusual
step of dismissing the British Minister
FIR an apparent interference in his own
behalf, it was evident that he and his
friends felt the political situation to be
critical. They probably hoped to in
fluence votes by course which had
the appearance of great vigor and reso-
luton. and which was not likely to
lead TO any very embarrassing conse
quences. Our New York correspOn-
dent says that the result is great sur
prise and disappointment to the demo-
Gratis, and it is entirely contrary to the
expectation (which was very general
ly entertained till within al
week or two ago. The |
democrats have been SO jubilant ever
since they carried Mr.. Cleveland in |
1884, they have expressed such entire |
confidence in the continuance of their |
supremacy. that the world has been
misled. For the past three years and
eleven months We have been constant
ly assured that the republican party
was even broken sup and scattered.
When the democratic National Conven-
ton met and nominated Mr.. Cleveland
it was with the most complete and
confidence i'm his success.
The nomination of General Harrison
by the republican convention was
spoken of as i'm itself almost recogni-
ton of their probable defeat; and all
the political forecasts which have been
sent across the Atlantic until very
lately have treated President Cleve-
and's election for second term as a
foregone conclusion. The fact seems
% &c that as New York is the chief
point of contact between the United |
States and the European world. politi- .
,ians on this side inevitably see United ,
States politics through New York |
pectacles. Yet this election has once I
more shown, what previous ones had :
aught us till 1854, that the city of
New York is in no sense representa-. f,
i've Of the great Republic which lies
,ehind it. Mr.. Cleveland has large
majority in New York City, yet he is /,
n a considerable minority i'm New
FORK State. 1t had been so ip many :
previous elections, and Tuesdays vot-
ng seems to show that the 1884 elec- 3
ion, in which for once New York City /.
vas on the side of the majority-or
ather the majority were on the side of
New York City-was altogether an ex-
eptional one. Some of the New York "
papers talk of his having been defeat
d by party treachery, and our New ,
York correspondent says that the New
York democrats sacrificed Mr.. Cleve-
and in order to save the City and S
state candidates. This is, of course.

He Got an Answer.
From the Ne,u York Tribune

From the NetU York Tribune.
One of the public characters of Washington
is the old newswoman who has her stand at the
corner OF F and Fifteenth streets, opposite the
treasury. She numbers among her customers
many well-known men, and between making
inquiries about their health at every sale of a
paper and driving off the newsboys who seek to
encroach on her monopoly of the corner. she is
kept pretty busy. A blessing goes with every
paper, but when an old customer forgets or re-
fuses to make his regular purchase, the Ian
guage is more vigorous than that commonly
used in giving thanks for a favor. The old
woman is said to be well off, but she makes no
parade of her wealth, and her appearance often
causes unsuspecting strangers to buy out OF
what they imagine is pure charity.
One raw, clustering day when the rain was
pouring down in torrents, a gentleman who
was passing with a government official was
struck by her evident distress and stopped to
make inquiry.
MY poor woman" he said ''you ought not
to be out in such weather. I'll buy all your pa
pers and you can go home. What is your name,
my good woman, and where do YOU iive?''

Gold Tea" In the Senate.
From the Neg YORK. Times.

From the Nel1 York Times.
Senator Frye is sometimes laughed at because
ne opposed the sale of whisky in the Senate
restaurant and compelled resort to the subter-
fuge of cold tea, or whisky served in a tea
cup. But the senator's protest against the open
sale of spirituous liquors is only one of the
Signs OF developing criticism OF the use OF
liquor IN an open way about congress. His posi-
tion Is great advance upon that of the mass of
congressman in service here twenty five years
ago. At that time whisky was not more OBJ
by an old empIoye that at the beginning of the
Thirty-eighth congress the room Of one of the
principal clerks of the House was always sup
piled with at least bottle Of whisky, that stood
out upon table free to all corners as soon as
the superior clerk had given the signal by TAX
ing the first drink. Three prominent men from
as many different states made this room q
'badging' resort, and it was not a rare sight
to see champagne opened by the case for the
promotion of some interests in the House, the
celebrated congressman making it point to be
on hand whenever the champage was fixing.
This liquor was supplied by men who were dis
posed to keep the members Of the house in good
humor, and to subdue any violent opposition
that might otherwise be developed. Two of the
celebrated drunkards of that time have gone to
place where there can be no use for lobbyists.
The third is still here, but has reformed, and
has ''razzledazzle" time of it at long intervals
Champagne is still to be had in the restaurants
OF both houses and whisky without disguise in
one OF them. But in the open committee rooms
the whisky bottle has given way to the ice
pitcher, which neither cheers nor inebriates.
The habitual drunkard member is now almost
as extinct the dodo, and the free drink of 1884
is a spiritual "Reminiscences.
