majority.
Ir it is really true that Connolly ban
confessed, and that Tweed intends pub
lishing the names of republican legis
lators of New-York whoso votes were
bought, with the sums paid to each
one, some highly interesting reading
may bo looked for.
The politicians of Kentucky arc be

Mil. Octai.o.na First has recently
entered the marriage stale in Holmes
county, Ohio. According to the scrip
tures, " the first shall be last and the
' last shall be first." Hut by this mar
riage contract, the first shall be First
and the last shall be First, too.
The words most frequently in the
mouths of the democrats who advorato
the white-flag-unoonditional-surrender-policy,
are: " Let in unite with repub
licans like Sumner, Trumbull and
1 Scliura, aud thus beat Grant ; let us go
' over to those men and accept their in-
structions say, when they bid us,
' the democratic party is vile, Ins been
' wrong persistently in the past, and will
1 never be worthy of the confidence of
' the American people in tho future"
The passives would have the party get
down upon iu kncc3 and entreat those
men to permit democrats to voto for the
politician they may iudicato a tho per
son who should bo president. Hut now
comes Senator Trumbull, one of the Po
called liberal republicans, and hiiys. " I
1 will not bo a candidate for president

' would he a Ui.-astcr to the countrv
4 greater than tho evils of the prc.-cnt con
' dition ofaff.iirs. I will have nothing lo
1 do with the passive dodge of the dem
1 ocrats." What now is to be done
Trumbull has turned his back upon us
and Sumner has also expressed his de
termination to fight his battle against
Grant insido the republican party
Schurz, aloue, is left as an encourage
meut to the anxious passive heart, and
ho is continually running from one po-
eition to another, talking wisely but
indicating no fixed purpose for the fu
ture. Tho passive suitor for the heart
and hand of liberal republicanism has
beon rejected. Ho will not be permit
ted to even sleep on her door mat. Ifc
has not only been refu-ed but also

Such bitterucs of feeling had been
reached that, at last accounts, the school

was found necessary to have policemen
present during the serous of the school
to preserve order. Hible reading in
the public schools has been a vexed

prominent Southern politician, tho partic

day or two, wilh Senator Trumbull,
ol Illinois. My Informant, who is him
self an ex-Unltcl States senator, states
thHt he met Judge Trumbull in the li
brary of Oonres, and that after ex
changing friendly salutations, ho asked
tho senator whether he would consent to
tho use of his namo as a consorvativo
candidate for tho presidency against
General Grant. Tho Illinois statesman
replied with moro than usual emphasis:
" No sir, I would not. "
" And why not ?"
"Formany rcaions. " Judge Trumbull
said in substanco: " In tho first place I
am satisfied whero I am. I consider a
oat in tho senate of the United States a
position in which I an bo moro useful
than any othor, and I believe it to bo as
honorable as any under the government
Ifits duttos bo efficiently and properly
discharged. In tho noxt place, I do not
agree with the progratnmo which has
been inarkod out by those who refuse to
support tho candidacy of the president
for rc-clcctlon. I am conscious of tho
need of many reforms, and I am daily
striving to accomplish them. But I do
not believe that n revolution of
parties at this time would
bo salutary. I o not boliovo either tho
peoploof thu North or South are ready
to profit by such h change
" And why not V
"Heeause tho peoplo of the South have
really accepted nothing and are not willing
to co-opera to with tho liberals of the North
in settling tho practical relations of so
ciety on n sure aud goncrous basis. I
know thnt the South has much to com
plain of. Dut so hnvo tbo liberal republi
cans. It is not tho rebel clement, perhaps,
but it is the nature of things that the South
should not realize the complete overthrow
of tho old order and tho necessity for a
complete change of tho domestic policy

"Don't you think Gen. Grant mediates
the permanent usurpation of tho executi vo

"No, I do not. My opinion is that Gen
Grant is, in tho main, a conservative man
Ho has mnde mistakes. Hut I can not sny
they justify his removal."
"What uro your personal relations.'"
" ery friondly. I have opposed some of
his ineaiurej; but 1 have no personal feel
ing against him, nnd indeed, this is one of
tho reasons why it is disagreeable to have
my name mentioned in tho connection
you name."
"The southern Democracy would sup
port you with pleasure."
"You arc mistaken. Tho democracy is
yet too strong in numbers to disband, for
that Is tho meaning of tho passive policy.
Throo millions of domocratel votes cannot
afford to sell themselves to two or three
hundred thousand republican voters, and
that fora mess of pottage which tho repub

"No, not exactly. Tht new departure

adopted the platform of 1808, they would
have been fllll more disastrously

The poet, Longfellow, has astonished
tho literary world by publishing, unherald
ed, a new poem. It is entitled " Tho Di
vino Tragedy," und, in tho languago
of the Now York Tribune, "is found
ed on the liltory of the man
of sorrow" m related In the
artless naratlves of tho Kvangollsts, and
alms only to reprodueo, In tho light of
the Imagination, tho significant facts
which form tho gospol of Christian ox
porienco. Tho poet has performed his
task In the 'cbasta and awful spirit of
dovotion.' No presumptuous endeavor is
made to adorn tho sevoro simplicity of the
voncrablo rccerd with tho graces of mod
ern composition. The very words of tho
popular version have been retained, to a
largo extent, and whero their placo Is sup
plied by the languago of tho poet, tho
unity of spirit is preserved by the Scrip
tural cast of expression. A sacred antique
flavor is thus Imparted to tho wholo drama
which betrays the air of 1 Jordan' groves
of palm' quito as much as of the classic
shades of Cambridge
We have space only for tho final scene
of the tragedy, In which the.poet employs
a rovercnt touch, not rashly Intruding up
on mystorsis " which tho angels dosiro to
look into," and adding nothing to tho sa
cred narrative beyond the license of sym
pathetic imagination.

THE llosroN KADIUAL CL01I.
Tills club has recently held a meeting,
n which Mr. Cranch read a poem entitled
"Tho lllrd and tho Hell," in which ho de
nounced the "creeds and formulas.''
Dr. Oartol said it seemed to him the great
test question about any truth was, "Can
It bo sung ? can It bo set to music ?" The
words of Jesus were of themselves rhyth
mical ; they were a song of hope, a chant
of courage; but this test would make sad
work of dogmatic thoology. We should
have trouble to sing Calvinism. Election
is not musical, nor is everlasting punish
ment melodious.
John Dwight Insisted that Calvinism
could be sung. The St. Mattbow Passion
Music of Iiach, one of tho loftiest and
most inspired utterances of musical
genius, ho said, was literally a singing of
Calvinism in all its details.
Mr. Samuel Longfellow remarked that
the Free Iloliglonlsts had given them
selves to nature and woro ready to trust to
tho ideas and emotions native to tho human
pirit.
Then Sir. I'ottor recurred to Dr. Uar-
tol's statemont thatlCalvInism could not bo
sung and asked on which shelf wo were to
put "l'nradlso Lost."
Dr. Hartol said that he roferred only to
tho dogmas of Calvinism. Kvory faith
can be sung, but not every dogma, and tho
flvo points of Calvin ho found as unmusi.
cal as tbo Five Points of New York.
Mr. Towno bolievod that great works
and great truths slug tbcmsolovs as natur :
ally as the morning stars sang our crea
tion. In Calvin can bo found thoughts
breathing a pure ipirltual melody; and
sir. r.merson sots there Is no such Irans-

not that tho secret of Its mighty ofTcct up

friendship takes on tho form of ideality.

they fall from them they bceomo less lo
