Wing and Democratic Parties.

The line of succession for each of the
two great parties of to-day stands thus:
Federalists. Anti-Federalists
Loose Constructionists. Republicans.
National Republicans. Strict Construction It's.
Republicans. Democrats.
The Wings, however, constituted only
one OF the elements which entered into the
formation of the Republican party. The
Free Sellers, who were recruited from both
the Wing and Democratic parties. and
thousands of anti-slavery Democrats who
never belonged to the Free Soil party. were
part of the coalition out of which the Re-
publican organization grew. Most of the
Southern section of the Wings, moreover.

1894 and 1855, Joined the Democracy.
Slavery became the dominant issue at that
time, and on this question the parties d.
vlded in the readjustment of political
forces which began on national scale in
1851, when the Republican party of to-
day had its birth.
The name Republican which stands

tions was the party designation at the
time of Jefferson, who was one of the
founders of the Democracy. Strict Con.

beginning. From 1928 onward the disci-

Loco-foco was given to the Democracy. AT
first it was applied to a fraction Of the

question " neither the mans mind has not
become unsteady. His daring and abso-
lutely untruthful assertions at Dublin and
Cork are inexplicable, but behind this
madness there is method, for the rotunda
speech contained much which sought to
conciliate the mob, and laborers and arti-
sans of Ireland.
Notwithstanding Parnell's remarkable
reception at the Irish capital and along the
journey to Cork, evidences abound that the
cheering and shouting came almost solely
from the street. The solid public opinion
of Ireland has not yet declared itself, and
it is becoming less doubtful whether it will
ever do SO in Parnell's favor. 1t is coming
home to the Irish electors that however
successful Parnell may be, the English
leaders can never again negotiate with him,
and his admission that home rule cannot
be accomplished without English help i'm
presses many Irish politicians with the be-
lief that Parnell is an obstacle rather than
help to Irish aspirations. The want of
funds alone will soon produce paralysis
His purse is becoming empty. He cannot
touch the fund in Paris Nobody knows
how much or rather how little is left of the
amount intrusted to him for the payment
of the Irish members.
On the whole, Parnell's prospects are
much worse than they were a week ago.
His speeches betray the fact that he is
fieh hitting in the air. Defeat at Kilkenny
will give his cause staggering blow.
PAREELL SPEAKS AT POLITICAL MEETING.
Kilkenny, December 13th.-A mass
meeting in the interest of Scully, Pernell-
lite Parliame ntary candidate, was addressed
by Parnell to-day. He warned the electors
not to trust Sir John Pope Hennessey
candidate of the Mccarthy faction. Hen
Messy, he said, was well qualified to be
leader in the party of renegades, there be-
ing no party to which he had not belonged
save the Irish party.
Parnell spoke but briefly, showing signs
of great fatigue and his voice being so
hoarse as to be at times almost inaudible.
The reporters are intensely annoyed by
the mysterious changes he makes in his
plans. He has now abandoned the pro-
posed visit to Limerick, and will remain
in Kilkenny until after the election, not
withstsnding everything has been ar
rapced for bis visit

She Shows Remarkable Speed on Her
Trial Trip.
PHILADELPHIA, December 13th.-The new
cruiser Newark started out again yesterday
morning for trial trip. During the first
trial last Wednesday there was a break in
the machinery which necessitated repairs.
When she headed to sea Friday morning
there was stiff northwest gale. The off,
cial trial had been in progress three hours
when two bolts which had been repaired
broke again, and for the second time the
trial was stopped, greatly to the disappoint-
ment of all on board, as the cruiser was
doing magnifcently.
One Of the officers on board says that
during the three hours run she had logged
an average speed of 1877 knots, or about
twenty-three miles an hour, and the indi-
cations were that her horsepower would
be about 8 500.
The officer also said that she was one of
the steadiest ships in heavy sea he had
ever seen. In the run up to the shipysrds
from the breakwater. 103 miles were made
in five hours and five minutes with only
one engine working.

Best Time to Train a Colt.

The colt will learn more easily when
six months old than when year old. II
can also be controlled more easily. Hence
it is wise to handle the colt early. Its
early training should not stop at breaking
to halter. 1t should be handled until any
part of its body or limbs can be rubbed,
until it is accustomed to the bride, and
until it will drive as well as lead To
teach it all this, and to keep it from for
getting what it has learned, is little
trouble, but if the colt is of good stock..the
trouble is well paid for.

A fight took place in the Guadalupe
mountains, east of the San Bernardino

than five. A few days ago the Indian
scouts and soldiers from Fort Bowie were
recalled from that vicinity, as it was said
that there were no Apache outlaws there.

UNAVOIDABLE REPORT.
A Ship Canal Between Port Townsend
and Oak Bay Not feasible.

WAsHISeToN, December 13th.-Secretary
Proctor has sent to the House a report
from Captain Symons on the results of the
between Port Townsend bay, on the Puget
Sound, and Oak bay. Captain Symons re-
ports that q ship canal to connect the two
bays might be of considerable importance
in time of war, but the commerce which
would be benefited by the proposed canal,
and will be for some time, is not at ali
commensurate with the cost of the opening
and maintaining of the same.
If the proposed iron and steel works at
Irondale is established the benefits to be
derived from the canal in the future may
justify its being built, but he cannot at
present believe they will.
