idea ot bringing iuto our modern [iol
ities the divisions that existed be
tween tile Cavalier an 1 tne Puritan
is full of matter for retieetiou.
vVe presume that if tne modern
Cavaliers aud the Puritans are to
flgut. tueir battles over again we inns
regard General Grant as the new
Cromwell. Grant nos inmy points
of reseinolance to Cromwell. He i~

soldier. He believes the few things

his military system into polities.
Every movement he has made as
President is based upon the idea 01

Tlie Texas I'anUe—anund Views.
It has been whispered about of late
that Tom Hcutt will not press his
Texas Pacific Railway bill before
Congress this winter. The election
of Mr. Kerr, adeterminedopponentol
subsidies iu auy guise, as .Speaker,
will doubtless strengthen that deter
mination. The eon test for the S i-a k
ership was in some degree Tout
Scon’s battle, and he was most de
cidedly worsted. While the South
ern members, and indeed all who are
not (lecuuiarilv interested iu some
way in the present Pacific railroad,
are in favor of a Southern route, and
are confident the Texas Pacific must
be built, sooner or later, there has
arisen a growing distrust of Tom
8e *tt, and a want of confidence in ids
pledges, which will ren ler it ver>
difficult for him to secure tile legis
lation he asks. Could the Southern
members of Congress be convinced
that he really iuteuds to build a
Southern Pacific road, and not a feed
er to Western cities, their unanl
mous support could undoubtedly be
secured, but. not otherwise. The re
cent decision of the Supreme Court
of th- United States iu the case of
the Union Pacific will be another
Slumming block in Tom Scott’s path.
It is very evident that notonlv will
the Government have to meet the
accrued interest on the Union Pacific
bonds, but princi(ial as well, when
they come due, for by that time the
stockholders can afford to abandon
the road. Congress will therefore be
chary of endorsing the bonds of auy
railroad In the future.—Washington

A Child’s Ideas.— Warren, a little
five-year-older in a neighboring town,
whose mother is in the daily iiabit of
reading the Bible to him. asked of a
young lady visitor. "Who do you
love best in the Bible?” The visitor
replied, “God; don’t you?” "No!”
said Warren; “I love Noah best.”
“Why?” Because he built a ship.”
After a short pause ho continued. “I
tell you what I mean to do; I’m going
to get a cannon and fire it off, and
make a hole in the clouds, and ask
God to let Noah down by a string.”
The same night Warren was severely
attacked with croup. The visitor
was in the sick chamber, sympathiz
ing with her little friend, when he
looked up at her, and in an almost
inaudible voice, from the hoarseness
of croup, he said, “I tell you what;
If this thing keeps up, I guess I’ll go
up to Noah, instead of his coming
down to me.” Cute, for five years

New Vo-tK, Deo. 13.— : The Tribune
publishes uu interview with ex-Seua
tor Scliurz, in which Mr. Heliuiz posi
tlvely denies that he had anything to
ilo with the proßeeutions ngiiust the
j Whiskey Ring in St, Louis. The re
i port that he conspired with Hender
son or uny one else to bring abou!
the prosecution of Avery, he pne
uounces baseless, and declares lie has
hud no eoiumuuiciitiou with Hender
son for nearly a year. He never
charged Babcock with being in com
plieity with the Whiskey Ring, aim
exptesses his sincere belief that the
President is personal y clean of all
(simplicity.
He lays ihe blame on persons vvlm
have abused the President’s confi
dence. When Gen. McDonald was
appointed Supervisor, he with tunny
others protested against it, believing
that it would lend to corrupt the ser
vice.

are more numerous, numbering 14,-
986,157. These notes are retained by
the bank when received, the l ight to

Bank of France is paying out gold as
liberally as if no stringency m the

have nearly disap|>eared, yet there
are 1.342,70i of them. It is thought
that the great proportion of these are

Washington, Deo. 13.—At the last
session of the Senate the vote upon
seating Pinchbeck on his credentials
was postponed to tho second Mondu\
in December. This was a subterfuge,
as it turns out tliut that action of last
session does not make it an order ol
tho day, as it would have done hail
tho session been continuous. If it
comes up to-morrow, it must be by u
preliminary vote to take it up. Thb
the friends of Pinchback do not de
sire, as Senators Alcorn, Logan, Dor
sey and Cragin, who would vote fm
Id in if present, are not iu their seats.
Pinchback Is apprehensive of a Re
publican purpose, by one subterfuge
and another, to postpone action until
| after the adjournment of the Louis
iana Legislature, when, by tho ap
pointment of a person more accepta
ble to them, the next Congressional
election can bo carried and two Re
publican Senators secured. Plnoh
baek is determined to have a vote as
early as possible.

New York, Dee., 12.--A London
special to the Herald says the mes
sage of President Grant hits been
chiefly influential in determining the
purpose of the Government concern
ing the complication in Cuba. It bus
outwardly removed existing suspi
cians that trouble was impending. It
has also relieved American bonds
from a presure and heaviness that
was felt by those who are engaged in
their manipulation. It may be ad
ded, however, that these securities
are still feverishly hold, because of
the suggestions of the President con
cerning the school question and
openingof new political issues. On
the whole, tho message has been well
received, especially that portion of it
which treats of the finances of the
Government and tho possibility that
at no distant day tho currency will
bo reduced to a basis that|will corres
