From the Doylestown Intelligencel

From the Doylsstown Intelligencer
of December first:
William Washington, of New
Brunswick, n j., is colored gentle
man. William has always been
known among his friends rs an ad-
mirer of the gentler sex, but his latest
achievement In this respect has won
him unlocked for fame. He has
hitherto confined his attentions to
ladies of highly colored compilations.
but now a tender heart encased IN
pure white skin has fallen n victim to
his charms. The tender heart in
question is owned by Miss Lizzie
Fisher, beautiful young girl of
German parentage. Her first meet
ing with William was confined to
sweet Smiles, the sscond resulted in
mutual admiration, and the third
evoked a proposal for a wslk.
The walk took place, and resulted
in an agreement for the longer
journey of life. Together they
sought Justice of the Peace Enoch
Hardy, who, for a consideration,
Lizzie associates freely with the
colored people in her vicinity, snd
declares that her husband is a man to
be proud of. Some citizens of the
town, however, do not like the com
bination, and threaten to disturb
Williams matrimonial falicities by
calling the attention OF tho authori
ties to the compact.

Two Pictures.

They are both instantaneous pic
lures sun-pictures, sketched by that
wonderful instrument, the eve, and
hung IN that invisible picture gallery

them a sad history intervenes. The
first Is a bright sketch, done IN hfe's
roseate morning. 1t is beautiful
home, amid green lawns and shade
trees, and gardens and conservatory
are filed with choicest flowers. But
its chief charm IL the genial, ener-
getIc, Christian master, with his
bovy of beautiful children. The large
manufactures across the way are the

Of God, he rose from poverty to his
enviable position. The bright happy
children are carefully trained in the
ways of wisdom, while they enjoy al
the advantages which abundant
wealth affords.

1t is pity that the Northwest cannot take
advantage of the experience of the rest of

very expensive affair. The only true and
profitable way to do is to concentrate the

WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.-COnfereeS on
the Dakota, Montana and New Mexico
admission bill were in session short
time this morning and adjourned until
2 O'Clock without coming to an agree
ment. Another meeting of the con-
ferees on the territorial bill was held
this afternoon which resulted in de-
ciSlon to report to the two houses that
the conference was unable to agree. 1t
is gathered that the house of repreSen-
tatives was willing to make concessions
i'll the direction of admitting South
Dakota without further delay, if the
senators could concede the admission of
New Mexico, but no agreement could
be reached on this basis. and it is prob
able that the house cOnfereeS will ask
for instructions from the house before
any further steps are taken.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Feb. 7.-There
admission of the territories is not so
roSeate in anticipation. Tomorrow as
soon as Mr.. Springer announces to the
house that the conferees have failed to
agree, Judge Baker, of New York, will
move that the house recede from its
amendment to the senate bill and pass
that bill. That means the admission of
South Dakota alone. The result will be
big hullabaloo. but there is no likeli-
hood OF anything being done. Mean
time Senator Platt will inform the SEN
ate that nothing has been accomplished
and the senate Will recommit the bill to
Platt's committee, there to await such
action as the house may take. 1t is
plain that the Republicans have been
delaying this matter, just as they de-
layed action last summer on the tariff
bill, until it is too late to accomplish
anything. An extra session looms up,
and the Republicans evidently intend
to take to themselves all the glory of

HILL AND CLEVELAND.

Did President CLEVELAND Intention

question agitating Washington society.
The. reception was given in honor of
Gov. HILL, who was guest of the Sec
retary of the navy. The president and
his wife were invited, but found it more
convenient to go to New York on
visit than to be wearing their Sunday
clothes in honor of the distinguished
New Yorker. There are. those who i'm
agine that Mr.. Gle yEI.AND had pur-
pose beyond building up lucrative
law practice in selecting New York
city for his future home. There is no
suggestion that he intends to enter into
active politics. as JOHN QUINCY ADAMS
did upon his retirement from the presi-
dency, but it is intimated that he goes
out of the White house full of resent
ment towards the New York gang, who
betrayed him in the last election. By
putting these things together, the polit-
ical gossipers have it that Mr. CLEvE-
LAND is laying for DAVID BENNETT

PURIFYING TIE CAUCUS.

While. viewed from one standpoint,
there is crying necessity for such
bill as Senator TRUAx introduced in the
Legislature yesterday, yet seen from an
other, it wears such an air of absurdity
that one is inclined to suppose that
the legislature will laugh it to scorn.
That the caucus system is rotten to the
core, and is the source of more political
corruption than all other causes COM
bined, is admitted. And yet when we
undertake to control or regulate it by
Legislation, we give the caucus legal
recognition that it doesn't merit. 1t
would be fortunate if caucuses could be
conducted in the manner indicated in
the TRUAX bill. 1t is particularly de-
Sirable that all the voting shall
be done viva voce, for then the oppor
tunities for skulduggery would be very
much lessened. But the difficulty in
applying legislation as remedy for
the caucus evil is that political parties
are organizations unknown to the law,
and the caucus is simply piece of
party machinery. By elevating it to
the dignity contemplated by the TRUAx
bill, we not only complicate our cleo
tions, already too complicated, but we
bring party organization up to legal
status, totally at variance with our
ideas of republican institutions. Be-
sides, the operations of such a law
ould extend to a ridiculous limit. Any
two voters can get together and agree
to bring out a candidate for an office.
Their meeting would be a caucus, and
must be governed by the provisions of
this law
And yet no one can deny the neces-
sity for reform of the caucus system.
Itself inherently corrupt, it is corrupt
ing all the streams of our political life.
If legislation has practicable remedy,
we would urge its application. But in
a community where the force of public
sentiment is not strong enough to crush,
out the caucus evil by rejecting all
candidates who are nominated through
corrupt influences, we fail to see where
or how public sentiment is to be
aroused strong enough to insure the in
forcement of laws directed against it.
If there is not sufficient independence
among the masses to compel honest
methods in nominating conventions,
then laws intended to purify the caucus
system will be of no avail.

DEGENERATED ROYALTY.

There is no accessive admiration for
the ruling systems over the water when
one attempts catalogue of the special
features noted about palaces. On the
one hand are seen about all the diseases
that could be inherited or induced by
excessive indulgence in debasing prac-
tees, such as epilepsy, scrofula, gout.
dipsomania, insanity, etc.; and on the
other all the mental traits that dis
figure life-deceit, trickery, cruelty,
avarice ane lack of parental reverence.
There are occasional spurts of sturdy
qualities, and some of the ladies have
set exemplary patterns in morals, not
in dress; but on the whole as people
and trained baton swingers, the palace
denizens do not compare favorably
with the highest officeholders in this
country.
