In the death of Bishop Gallelier, New

A UNITED PARTY.
The election of Speaker Crisp on Mender
was s decisive atep In this direction,
unites tbe democratic party In ConxrrBi and
throughout the rouutry. It It a victory for
conservative democracy, n victory for com
mon seme. It Is oot s persons trlnmpb for
Crisp, Hill or Tammany, nor for Smltb L
Brown or Robinson, but a 'riuirpb for tbe
whole party. Us effect will bs to destroy all
ollqaes, all raufwumpa, crooks Isms sad
hybrid local factions of every strips. Tbs
conservative forest of democracy now itan
united os a truly notional party and appeal
to tbs sober oonunon eense of the American
people, who have had enou*h of narrow
minded extremists—Herald.
Tbe Herald holds the opinion that the
election of Speaker Crisp will mark tbe
brightest day the Democrats have seen
for many years. Taxation for revenue
only is the cue, and with moderation
and conservatism as the trump cards,
there remains no reason why the record
of the 52nd Congress shonld not stand
In vivid contrast with the “Ulllon dol
lar” one.
The Democratic rag-bag will be turn
ed iuslde out In eearch of a suitable
standard bearer who will offer the aaau-
rance of vlotqry In 1892. Crisp Is a con
servative, calm, cool leader, pledged to
such measures of reform as tbe time is
ripe for, and that will be feasible and
popular.
When hi* gsrel fell it called to order a
united Democratic party, zealous In
tariff reform and pledged to an Improve
ment in the fin- nolol conditions of the
oonntry.
KATBKtt PLACOIU.
Harrison's message to the 32nd Con
gress, reviewed In extanio, was not a
robust document, nor was tho various
subjects handled with any exceptions!
tact or ability, but It Is'rather a rehash
of pre*a descriptions of certain occur
rences that claimed popular notice dur
ing tbb by-gone year.
HI* methods of treating foreign and
diplomatlo relations are novel and with
out preoedent. There la no sturdiness of
conviction apparent, bnt a shuffling eva
sion of the questloni In hand, cloaking
them under an avalanehe uf glittering
generalities.
For a man, occupying tho dignity be
does, tbe message is an abortive product
of a mind trammelled and polionod by
the most malignant typo of partisanship.
Blaine evidently had little to do with
tbo construction of this frail effort and
if he did.it was a shrewd .finesse on the
pnrt of the “plumed knight" to guillo
tine politically the drivelling figure-head
now enjoying tho most exalted civic
honor within the gift of the people.
THESE DECEMBER MORNINGS.
The crisp air these froety mornings
contains tho very elixir of life; It ie the
«rine of the gods, served on Ice end with
out glass. It sends the blood coursing
through the veins and exhilarate* the
mind oa rare old wine.
Nature hoe adopted tbe "free coinage
of silver," and aoatten It over the earth
with s prodigal hand. Every bare tree
that stands out os a silhouette against
the aky wears a silver fringe, every dry
blade of grass Is transformed Into a sil
ver spear, end the loot leaf on tho tree
has become a silvery shining heart
With a touoh of the magic wand of
Jock Frost, Dams Nature become* trans
formed from a rural oonntry mold, with
all her crudities Apparent, into s beauti
ful belle of tho boll, with glittering pen
dente of diamonds, a crown of pearls,
and a robe of filmy silver.
Germany has lost no time in getting
square with Franco and Russia for their
recent coquetries. She has not declared
armed war against those nations. For
war in these day* is apt to act like a
boomerang, and governments are sby of
It. Bat she may have chosen quite ae
effective a means of harming her foes
by forming the new and formidable
Zollnreln described In U. Jacques St.
Cere’s Herald’s dispatches. “France must
have her Industrial Sedan," onoesald Bis
marck. Tbo new league may not prove
so disastrous to France as Bismarck
might wish, hut It win oost her a good
many millions.
The Indisputable truth 1* that ou all
the issue* betwteu parties the record of
Crisp Is ee pronounced and unimpeacli
able as that of Mills, while * majority of
th* members who know them both con
sider Crisp a better organizer and leader
of hot parliamentary contests, a safer
and better presiding officer for tho
House,
“Tlisrv’a nothin* hair so sweet la I .Ik

-New Yolk Herald.
The Wilmington, (N. C.),
devote* a column to the linguistic eaeo-
prdes of noted authors,.showing that
they like kindred of n more vulgar mould
may “some time nod.” The genesis of
some of the errors that are now In cur-
rent me may frequently be traced back
to loo iguuntuce of grammatical rules
on the port of some literary celebrity,
whose name gave currency to tbe error.
Take, for example, a man like William
Makepeace Thackery, one of the glories
of hls country and one of the highest
manifestations of genius In the literary
world. He ha* had few equals as •
writer of admirable, clear ana finished
English. Yet this muter of Anglo-
Saxon blundered sometimes, not Ignor
antly. but careleuly. Then cannot leu
gifted mortal* slip up occuionally?
