The grand old party may seek to shirk

'l’he Baltimore papers state that the
Young Democratic Association is engaged

all such practices.
The Illinois State Journal prints a num

There be leaders and leaders, but save
us from blind guides. As the Brooklyn
Eagle remarks: “There is a big ditch that
intersects the road leading to the Presi
dential goal of 1884, and either party is
liable to tall into it. It is all the more im
portant to revive the memory of this fact
since the number ot blind leaders on both
sides seems to be unusually large."
A Massachusetts Democrat claims to
expect Butler's nomination for President,
and says he would draw a great deal of
support from the Republicans. Being
asked to be more particular he said: “I

glove with Butler, admire him, and are
willing to aid in whipping the crowd that
now rules the Republican party."
I’he District ot Columbia has gained an
unenviable reputation as the only part of
tla country where a proper, decent and
honest jury cannot be obtained, and the
record ot the past few days willfully bear
out the statement. Whisky bottles and
drunkep jurors have disgraced the trial,
and its only redeeming feature is the
dignity and fairness with which Judge
Wylie has held the scales of justice.
There is now a distinct prospect of a re
sumption of diplomatic relations between
England and Mexico. It was in October,
1860. just twelve months before the tri
partite convention between England,
France and Spain, that the foreign Minis
ters quitted Mexico, and since then,
except during the unfortunate Maxi
milliau’s reign. England has not held
direct communication with the Mexican
Governments The coming Mexico
be a country that England will not care
to turn her nose up at.
Archbishop Croke, who was supposed
to have been severely snubbed by the
Pojie at their recent interview in Rome
with respect to the position the Arch
bishop had taken up in Irish polities, has
apparently resolved to retaliate by apolo
gizing te his countrymen for His Holi
n. hs._ Shortly after his return to Dublin
the Archbishop was met by a delegation
which presented him with a memorial
thanking him for the patriotic efforts he
had made on behalf of Ireland, and sym
pathizing with him in his present situa
tion as regards the head of the Church.
In a delicious vein of patronage, the
Archbishop replied: “I am very sure His
Holiness meant extremely well.”
A Winning Ticket.
The “grand old party” is in sore straits.
Its great leaders are in obscurity. Men
of mediocre talents are at the head of the j
rival factions. Mr. Conkling gravely re- I
marked that the Democrats were about to |
take control of affairs. General Grant,
who heard this statement, sat in stolid
silence and ventured no contradiction.
John Sherman, who has long itched for
the Presidency, refused the best possib' •
chance he had for the nomination and put
np a fifth rate politician for the Governor
ship in Ohio.
The Republican organs have a subdued
tone about them. Their old time brag is
missing. They are sober, and not a few
of them advocate mildly a policy of re
form. Altogether the “grand old party”
is not in a happy frame of mind. The
would-be aspirants for the highest honors
of the party are silent or despair of mak
ing their claims good. “Harmony’ at any
cost," is the slogan of the wily politicians
who would maintain tbeir lease of power,
but harmony makes but little progress.
The outlook is dreary in the extreme.
We sympathize with the “grand old
party,” and in proof of our good will sug
gest that the factions cease quarrelling
and unite on the following tried and true
statesmen as their standard bearers in
1884:
FOR president:
STEPHEN W. DORSEY,
of the United States.
FOR vice president:
THOMAS JEFFERSON BRADY,
of Indiana.
What could be better? Here are two
worthies, who, to use the chaste diction
of Mr. Roscoe Conkling, “have been pil
loried at the cross-roads of public opin
ion,” but who, by the verdict of a "Wash
ington jury, have been set free and been
given certificates of respectability.
“Dorsey and Brady.” There’s magic in
the conjunction and presage of victory.
Rally round the Hag!
The Washington correspondent of the
New York WorZd, noting the star route
verdict, remarks: “Ex-Senator Dorsey
has written to John A. Martin, ot Kansas,
that he does not recognize him as Secre
tary’ of the Republican National Commit
tee. Dorsey says he himself is still Sec
retary of that committee, and that he
means to exercise the powers and privi
leges of the position. This fact illustrates
perfectly the present position of the star
route defendants. They consider prosecu
tion at an end, and say even Kellogg’s
simple indictment for bribery will never
be tried. The whole matter will be allow
ed to drop—even the civil suits to recover
money improperly paid the contractors.
Bliss, Merrick and Ker will be discharged
without delay. This was the theory enun
ciated at a serenade tendered to Inger
soll, Carpenter and Dorsey to-night
by a lot of fellows who had been
drinking at Dorsey’s expense
in the “Star Route” restaurant opposite
the court house. The prosecution is dazed
with surprise. Only yesterday Brewster
wrote to Judge Wyliethatin ease the jury
disagreed he would like another sum
moned at once. Mr. Brewster says that
all indictments will be tried and some of
the thieves will finally be caught. Mean
while Dorsey talks about a scrap-book he
has carefully kept full of libellous clip
pings from the great newspapers of the
country, and of libel suits to be founded
upon them. The press, according to the
report, is to be sued by cities, beginning
with New York. Dorsey has lots of money
left, but Brady is poor. Dorsey’s account
for liquor sold at the Star Route restau
rant, which he declared free to all comers
to-day, tills both sides of all the shutters,”
At Harvard Gov. Butler would have
appeared officially and “therefore,” re
marks the New York Evening Post, “his
presence would have meant nothing in
particular except the continuance of a
custom; but at Williams he will appear
as an example to the young men specially
selected for that purpose by President
Carter, which suggests many curious and
interesting reflections touching the rela
tions of our educational institutions to
elementary morality. Butler’s chief
contribution to political morality is his
maintenance, in 1868, when he was advo
cating a repudiation of the national debt,
thal ‘the State had no conscience.’ We
wonder it any professors of ethics have
begun to teach this yet.”
'l’he old-farm house in which Poe wrote
“The Raven,” and in which in the same
room he watched beside the deathbed of
his wife, at Fordham, N. Y., was recently
sold to a gentleman of Stamford, Conn.,
with grounds attached, for $5,700. Since
Poe left the house it has been in various
hands, but has always been known as the
Poe cottage. On one of the cherry trees
in the garden is carved the name of Ed
gar A. Poe, in letters which have become
elongated with the growth of the tree. In -
front of the house and running toward a
knoll crowned with trees, is a grass plot
which the poet’s young wife’s mother
used to clip with a pair of scissors until
it was as smooth as velvet.
Editor Hastings takes high moral
ground in the New York Commercial Ad
vertiser, when he observes; “All that the
star-route trials have accomplished, it
would seem, has been to bring disgrace
upon the country and the judiciary, and
to add largely- to the bank account of
lawyers, detectives and to the current ex
penses ot the government. It was a put
up job by a hanger-on about Washington
—the original inventor of the Credit Mo
bliler scandal against Garfield. And
Wayne MacVeagh used this vile instru
ment to smirch the Republican party that
he might win laurels as a reformer.”
Henry Hudnall, President of Mahone's
School Board in Richmont, recently- ap
pointed by the Cameron State Board, was
hissed a few nights ago by persons in the
audience while he was attempting to
make a speech in delivering diplomas to
gradutes of the high school. His speech
was omitted and the diplomas were pre
sented without formality. One of the two
colored members of the school board, with
his wife and daughter, occupied a private
box in the building during the exercises.
The New York World hypothetically re
marks: “If Dorsey had been convicted by
the bibulous and delirious star route jury
he could have consoled himself as did the
poor negro in the lockup when the tem
perance man interrogated him. -What
brought you here?’ inquired the tem
perance advocate, seeking for statistics.
‘Two policemans. sah.’LfcYes, I know, but
did liquor have anything to do with your
being here?’ ‘Oh, yes, sah; dey was bof
drunk.’ ’’•
A clerk in the Pension Office has a poor
opininion of the veracity of its pensioners.
He says he believes there are 10,000 sol
diers' widows who eitherlive in adultery
or lie rather than surrender the $8 they are
entitled to as long as they’ remain unmar
ried. “I have frequently known them to
bring along their children,” he says,
“when they make the shameful avowal
that they are not wives." This is a broad
indictment.
There appears to be a suspicion among
the rural brethren of both political parties
in Ohio that there is an understanding be
tween Cincinnati and Cleveland to help
each other out in getting the pick at the
offices. At the Republican convention
Cleveland voted for a Cincinnati man for
Governor, and Cincinnati returned the
favor by going solid for a Cleveland man
for Lieutenant Governor.
Mr. Parnell is reported to have said re
garding the Pope's blow at him: “I don’t
know what it will do for me in the next
world, but it has made my fortune in
this." His testimonial fund is rapidly
nearing the intended sum of $125,000,
while before the Pope's circular was
issued there was little prospect of it ever
reaching $50,000.
The Chattanooga Times is disgusted
with the quarrels and rivalries of In
diana Democrats and says: “Indiana had
better step aside. The Democrats there
closely resemble those of Ohio. Their
finest performances are the killing off of
heads of factions, the tableau consisting
of suicide by the slayer."
The Cleveland Plain Dealer says that
the present will probably be the greatest
year tor railway construction excepting
1881. Up to the present time there have
been 1,216 miles of new track laid, against
1,018 miles during the corresponding
period last year and 1,264 miles in 1881.
Self-Care.
It is an encouraging sign of modern in
telligence that the maintenance of health I
is at length beginning to assume a place
among the moral duties of life. It has
been a long time in reaching that high I
rank, and even now its position is rather !
tacitly acknowledged than than warmly I
espoused. We still smile leniently on I
sins against the body—we chide very
softly the heedjessness which contracts a
cold, or strains a muscle, or overtaxes
the brain, or injures the digestive powers;
and it we know that these things have
been done in the interests of other people,
or of other duties, we still pay them a
secret tribute yf approval in our hearts i
while condemning them wiih our lips.
Neither do we yet rank very high
among the virtues, those positive efforts
of self-care which result in. increased
strength and fuller vitality. “It is all
very well,” we say, “to study and obey
the laws of health, to exercise the facul
ties just enough to develop them, and not
enough to exhaust them, to breathe pure
air, to dress warmly, to eat moderately,
to secure time enough for sleep, for
leisure, for refreshment of various kinds
—all this is well, but it is only done for
self, after all, and cannot command any
very warm approval.” Yet, were we but
wise enough to trace the workings and
the results of this very self-care that we
now hold so cheap,our faint praise would
change to enthusiastic admiration, and,
instead of passively accepting it as a
good thing, we should earnestly urge it
as a primary duty on every intelligent
person.
Life underlies all action, death termi
nates it. Every one admits this, but few
seem to realize that between fullness of
life and death exist innumerable shades
or degrees; that just in proportion to the
wealth of vitality that any one possesses
w ill be his powers in various directions.
We rightly condemn suicide, but we for
get that every drop drained from the cup
oi life to diminish its affluence partakes
of the same character. It we have no
right to take the whole, what can give us
the right to take a part? We admit the
duty of self-preservation, but w hat do we
mean by it? Simply to keep ourselves
just alive, or to keep adding to our vitali
ty by every possible means and so en
hancing our powers of action ?
Let us see for a moment the difference
to the community at large between self
neglect and self-care. He who neglects
himself is to that extent weak. If he ex
haust his energies, they diminish. If he
strain them still more by continued en
deavor, they grow’ yet feebler. Discour
agement follows, difficulties surround
him, and he has no adequate strength
to cope with them, still less has he any
reserve ot power for active enjoy
ment or to promote the happiness
of others. His family must endure his
irritability and share his poverty. His
friends must partake of his unhappiness,
and many lives will be laid under con
tribution in various ways to keep the last
spark alive in him. Perhaps he began by
a sense of obligation to others and a wil
lingness to sacrifice much for their sakes,
but he has mistaken the road, and has in
volved those for whom he toiled in his
own misery.
On the other hand, look at the man who,
by self-care, has maintained his health
and happiness. He has a sense of power
and delights in its exercise. Conscious
of past successes and confident of future
ones, he takes up his future work with
glad energy, and has a reserve of force
sufficient to make relaxation pleasurable.
How does all this act upon others? He is
able to maintain his family in comfort,
to educate his children, to raise the
tide of life in each one, and so to hand
down to posterity valuable and happy
citizens. His own abundant vitality and
cheerfulness bring joy to every circle he
enters, and his simple presence is a direct
source of pleasure. More than this, he
maintains the powers of doing good in
many other ways, w hile his feebler neigh
bor uses up his whole vitality in earning
a bare existence. We know w’ell what is
implied by a reserved fund of money or of
time, over the actual needs of our daily
life—how they can be applied to a hun
dred objects of comfort and pleasure
to our families, or of welfare to the com
munity. But it rarely occurs to us that
the same thing applies, in even a more ef
fective and permanent manner, to our
vital powers. To have a surplus of strength
is at once to have many opportunities put
into our hands, and he w’ho, by a system
atic self-care, maintains this surplus is in
just that proportion prepared to be help
ful and valuable to society.
Governor Butler has written to the
Massachusetts State Board of Charities

to the trial for murder that must follow’

“I can say this much, and I fell in dutv
bound to say it. Dorsey made a splendid
Senator and Brady has been of great use
to the Republican party. Where there is
so much smoke there must lie some fire,
and I would not say that knavery and
trickery have entered into the business. I
will say th s, however.that I do not believe
either Dorsey or Brady had a hand in it.
I believe them both to lie honest men.

Georgia’s Niagara—The Experiences of
Disproportionert Tourists.
Being compelled by bail health to leave
our home in a beautiful city by the sea,
we were induced to try the air of Upper
Georgia, and selected Athens from all
other places suggested, and we were iwt
disappointed; for how beautiful she is, with
her dear old red hills, tine schools, lovely
homes, and beautiful women! Kinder
and more hospitable people the world
never saw. During our stay in that city
we heard grand descriptions of the beau
ties of Tallulah, and were told it would
never do to return to the coast without
seeing the grandest place in Georgia.
They were enthusiastic in their descrip
tion of the place, and we became animat
ed with the desire to see for ourselves the
wondertul beauties described, and so.
bidding our friends good-bye, we were
soon on our way to the mountains. We
reached Tallulah at 8 o’clock p. m., and
went up to the Johnson House, and there
met “mine hostess,” who is a charming
lady, understanding to perfection the art
of making her guests feeling perfectly at
home. A supper was soon served, and
having made plans for an early start in
our rambles the next day, we retired.
Breakfast was cooked to a “T,” and after
perfectly satisfying and fortifying the “in
ner man,” we started out. We were
a party of five. One of the
ladies weighing one hundred and ninety,
another one hundred and fifty, the re
maining one, a frail, delicate looking lady,
weighing one hundred pounds. The two
gentlemen of the party were opposite in
size and weight—the smaller one, whose
weight was about one hundred and
twtenty-tive, and the other would tip the
beam at one hundred and ninety- We
were particularly fortunate in having for
a guide and companion that excellent
gentleman, Mr. R. L. Moss, of Athens.
We started, but all protested that the
delicate lady should not accompany them,
for as they were a strong party and could
accomplish so"*hiany descents she would
never be able to stand it. But after some
coaxing on her part they consented, with
the soothing remark that “it would be
sure to make her sick." The first sight
we saw was the “Devil’s Pulpit.” Well
named. Who but his Satanic Majesty
could have occupied such a place? The
pulpit, a ledge of rock jutting out from
the stone cliff, from the top of which to
the water below is a distance of 450 feet.
From this point we had a fine view of the
Tempestia Fall and cliffs. We thought
the sight very grand and one that could
not be surpassed. We soon saw our mis
take We made our first descent,
and managed it remarkably well.
Here we got our first good
view of this tall. How wonderful
it was! How grand those high stone
walls on either side! How beautiful the
shading! No artist’s pencil could catch
the lovely tints. We stood gazing in rap
ture upon the lovely scene, and as our
minds recalled the descriptions we had
heard we felt the “half had not been told.”
We then began our second descent, which
was accomplished with more difficulty.
Just here we saw the disadvantages of
heavv weight. The fat lady had acciden
tally fallen to the care of the fat gentle
man. He was one of those nervous per
sons who could never descend such
places, or walk on the edge of precipices,
or look down a chasm without giddiness.
He was trying manfully to overcome the
weakness, but as the path became moi e
difficult and the descent greater he be
came much frightened, and, trembling in
every limb, he exclaimed, “I can’s stand
it; let us return.” The tat lady echoed
his words. This we never could "consent
to, and after some coaxing we persuaded
them to go a little further. It was too
ridiculous to see the frightened man try
ing to assist the much frightened fat lady,
and trying in vain to check with his hand
kerchief the profuse perspiration which
seemed, from once having had a begin
ning, to know no end. He had much dif
ficulty in keeping his feet, clutching at
every tree, twig or tuft of grass within
reach. His head was swimming, hands
trembling, legs shaking and face the color
of a beet. Still, when he caught the eye
ofany one of the party, he would make" a
desperate attempt at a smile, but the at
tempt often proved a total failure; still he
tried to keep up appearances and make
believe he was having a good time. To
add to his discomfort, the fat lady who
was so much taken up with her own diffi
culties, had had no time to notice his ago
ny, and would Call out so beseechingly,
“Oh, do help me; please give me your
hand;” and our poor hero would make the
attempt, and say sweetly, “Certainly,”
but how it was to be done he could not
tell. If he fell it would be terrible, for he
was dressed in the latest style and wore
tights—and tights they were. Had he
slipped, we shuddered to think of the con
sequences. Some of us were quite exer
cised on the subject. But we finally reach
ed the desired view. How repaid we felt
—with the exception of the fat couple,
who were panting and blowing at a furious
rate, and flourishing their already wet
handkerchiefs, they seemed too busy and
too lull for utterance. But we. in our in
tense admiration for the wonderful beauty
of the scene, soon forgot the perspiring
couple. We could think of noth
ing else but the grandeur be
fore us. How can the pen of
poor frail man describe such a scene!
We dare not make the attempt. We
thought of every adjective of a descriptive
nature, such as lovely, beautiful, grand,
sublime, but it was all these, and some
thing more. Our minds tried to recall in
vain some words by which to express it.
We felt for the old maid who, when she
first beheld Niagara, threw up her hands
and exclaimed, “Oh, how neat!” She
knew nothing could express her feelings,
and so she used the first words that came
to her. There was one more descent to
make to get a good view of the next fall
(Hurricane), so we turned to the tired fat
couple, who had by this time grown calm
er, and asked timidly if they were ready
to go.
We saw resolution of the firmest kind
in each eye as they replied emphatically,
“No, they would remain where they were
and wait.” None of us were brave
enough to urge, so leaving them we went
down and through “Reed’s Gap,” and
stood on the gray flat rocks directly
over the white foaming water. We had
there a most exquisite view. We seated
ourselves and enjoyed it to the utmost.
How small we felt, and how insignificant!
How grand was nature, and how great
must be nature’s God! One of the ladies
of the party, who had traveled over
Europe, and had seen many wonderful
sights, declared she had never
seen anything to equal this,
and when she returned to her
Northern home, she would tell them there
what a treat was waiting for them in old
Georgia. Mr. Moss thinks, as do many
others, that this will be the Niagara of the
South, and he is rapidly making prepara
tion for the accommodation of visitors
this summer. He has a fine large hotel
nearly, completed; it has many rooms and
well ’ arran ,ed, and will accommodate
many guests. He contemplates building
another one later, which will be larger
still.
After enjoying the lieautitul view of the
falls and being entirely rested, we return
ed to the fat couple who were by this time
rested.
On our arrival they begged piteously
that we should return," which we decided
to do. The owner of the tights had by
this time “cut his wisdom tooth,” and hail
decided to “change partners.” so he
maneuvered around until the fat lady
had gotten ahead and he then played a
“lone hand.” Looking neither to the right
or left, he began to ascend where he had
had so much trouble descending. He was
wise in getting behind the rest of the par
ty, for as we got to one of the worst and
steepest places, his former partner,
realizing her utter helplessness,
I turned " around with a beseeching
I look in her black eyes, and called to him
j to come and assist her. We looked at him
to see if he was equal to it, but saw it was
“no go ,, — she had called in vain. With
his lips he answered in a would-be cheery
manner: “I would with pleasure, if I only
could get to you.” But with his eyes he
said plainly" how thankful I am that I
can’t, for he had learned self-preservation
is the first law of nature. But turning
again to the dear fat soul, we wondered
irAo was equal to the emergency. When
lo! we saw the delicate, slender young
man undertake the mighty deed.
We looked on in awe. What if she should
i fall back? It would kill her; if forward,
i it would annihilate him; but we read in
his face a determination to do and dare
all. for now was the time to immortalize
himself. So bravely planting his foot
against a root, and his back to a rock, he
was ready to say “This rock shall fly from
its firm base as soou as I.” With a look
in his eye that men have when they at
tempt daring deeds, he bravely clutched
her arm and hand, and with the effort
that Sampson made when he bowed
against the pillar that held up the house
where all of the lords of the I’hillistines
had gathered, so he bowed and strained,
and lo! the deed was done—she rose in
her lofty majesty safely on the other side.
The slender gentleman was a hero from
that hour.
We have all heard from childhood’s
hour the old saying that “every dog
should have his day." and in this "ease it
was verified. "When the party left in the
morning fo*- their ramble, the stout ones
looked at the little delicate lady and slen
der gentleman, with a look of compassion
and pity. Now as they returned to the
cottage" the look had decidedly changed,
washed out, perhaps, by perspiration, and
in its place was envy. The slender cou
ple were as cool, calm and tidy as when
they first started. As for the others, well,
we won’t describe them. They retired to
their rooms immediately, and even the
ever refreshing cup of tea was ignored, i
Like Father Ryan, they wanted “rest, only j
rest.”
Thus ended our first day at the falls. >
In our next we will give you a more min
ute description oftbepointsofinterest. My
