SATURDAY MORNING, APRIL 20.
Conkling should hire a small room and
board himself. Then he wouldn’t have to
take his chances of entertaining an inter
viewer unawares.
The secret of this agreeable change in the
weather is announced from Boston. The
wind ceased blowing from the East. A
New York Herald weather map couldn’t
put the matter more plainly.
The newspapers of the stale speak very
highly of the fitness of Hon. D. Waldo
Lincoln for the presidency of the Boston
and Albany railroad corporation. His con
specuous qualifications for this important
post left no room for doubt as to the course
of the corporation In the event of President
Chapin’s resignation.
Theodobe Tilton makes a statement to
the effect that he knows of no efforts towards
a reconciliation between himself and Mrs.
Tilton, and that he had nothing to do with
the publication, preparation or origination
of her “quickened conscience” letter. The
newspaper attempt to revive the scandal has
fallen flat, and it would seem that the gen
eral public will take very little interest In
what Plymouth Church may or may not do
about it.
The European dispatches serve to confuse
rather than enlighten the seeker after in
formation as to the prospect of a settlement
between England and Russia. The prospect
for a congress seems to be a little better; but
the sending of troops from India to Malta
has an exceedingly warlike suggestion. It is
slated, however, that the supporters of the
government regard it as only a natural ac
companiment of the other precautionary
measures, and not indicative of a belligerent
inclination. The opponents of the govern
ment regard it as another step in the
development of a warlike policy.
Democratic Prospects.
We publish today in another column a
severe but just article from the New York
Sun on the lamentable lack of brains under
the bats of the acknowledged Democratic
leaders. When the result of the electoral
commission’s sittings was first an
nounced to the public the Democratic
masses were inclined to think that they had
been sold out by their leaders; but the course
pursued by the Democratic spokesmen since
that time has had the effect of causing the
majority of the party to adopt the more char
itable conclusion that their leaders were sim
ply outwitted in the game by which the
question of the presidential succession was
decided. It will be remembered that the
once-reverend Garfield explained that tbe
reason why the Republicans succeeded in
getting the presidency for Hayes was that
they “held tbe cards.” It is true that they
got possession of the cards, but it is also true
that all tbe winning cards were at one time
in the possession of the Democrats. Be
fore the electoral commission was
created tbe Republicans claimed that
the president of the Senate bad
power to decide which electoral votes
should be counted and which should not,
and on the validity of this claim they bung
their only hope of being able to inaugurate
Hayes. While tbe proposition for an elec
toral commission was under discussion
Senators Conkling, Endmunds and other
leaders of tbe Republican party made
strong speeches in which they held that
tbe president of tbe Senate bad not tbe
power claimed for him by Chandler and
the other manager in behalf of Hayes.
Then was the time when tbe Democratic
party “held tbe cards.” Tbe Democratic
leaders should have taken the position that
the president of tbe Senate had power to act
ouly as teller iu tbe electoral count, should
have quoted the strong speeches of tbe Re
publican leaders In support of that position,
and should have rejected tbe proposed elec
toral commission. The Inevitable result
would have been tbe inauguration of Til
den. But the men who acted In behalf
of the Democratic party were unable
to appreciate the advantages of tbe
occasion, and with unconscious and happy
stupidity they walked Into a trap which tbe
Republicans had set for them. Since tbe
Inauguration of Hayes tbe course of tbe
Democratic leaders has been as unsatisfac
tory to the party as their stupendous blunder
was unwelcome. Tako any Intelligent mem
ber of tbe party, who is not hampered by
eonslderailous concerning bls Individual
political ambitions, and ask him wbat would
have been tbe proper course for tbe Demo-
crats in Congress to pursue towards the ad
ministration, and he would without hesita
tion mark out a better and more manly pol
icy than that which our Congressmen have
followed. The main features of that policy
would have been somewhat as follows: No
childish opposition to the administration in
any good work, but a hearty support; no
bargaining with the administration for any
object whatever; no taking sides with either
faction of the Republican party on any
question of dispute, except when dictated
solely by regard for the public good; no
accepting of offices or favors from the
administration; and tbe total ostracism of
any self-styled Democrat who should
accept an office or a favor from the
administration. If such a policy had been
adopted and pursued by the Democrats in
Congress the party would have found itself
in 1880 united and able to win the contest
with ease. But the policy—or rather the
want of policy—of tbe Democratic Congress
men, their readiness to make bargains with
Hayes, their greed for such favors as he was
willing to bestow for considerations which
they could give, their willingness to be used
as tools for tbe concealing of tbe methods
employed by the Republicans in obtaining
tbe necessary electoral votes for Hayes—all
these things have put the Democratic masses
in a mood which indicates rather that they will
make little effort to win the next Presiden
tial contest than that they will take up the
fight in a spirit that will make success a cer
tainty. To be cheated out of a victory in
consequence of tbe big beadedness of their
leaders was dispiriting enough. To be hu
miliated by the discreditable policy pursued
by these men since the presidency was lost
through their stupidity is enough to take
about all of the remaining spirit out of the
rank and file of the party.
NOTE AND COMMENT.
And now alleged Spring lamb with mint,
on tbe table, has become a lamb-mint-table
fact.
“Economy is the road to wealth,” and we
begin to suspect that it is tbe one which has
no turning.
Perhaps it is only a theological ruse of the
devil to make Beecher change his mind on
the subject of hell.
See here I Let’s drop this William and
Mary business till the Theodore and Eliza
beth affair is settled.
Bismarck writes with a pencil fifteen
inches long,—from which we infer that
Evarts writes with a ten-foot pole.
Hardly have we passed the season of poems
on the Beautiful Snow, when out comes a
new poem on “The Maiden’s No.” We
command a halt!
“Senator Burnside drives a T cart.” In
order to properly carry out the idea he
should wear a P jacket and an I glass, and
be an L of a fellow generally.
A fashion item says that coat sleevesjare
still very popular,—which effectually knocks
our cherished plan of getting another sea
son’s wear out of tbe old linen duster.
If Beecher had been a country parson,
starved on a diet of lean souls and ground
down by donations and that, sort of thing,
perhaps he wouldn’t have been so frisky.
“Against this long and tortuous career 1
oppose my uniform and unimpeachable
truthfulness,” says Beecher. Uis uniform?
—but, come to think, be has recently been
made a militia chaplain.
“Several thousand years ago seven persons
engaged in a deadly combat in what is now
Lyons, Ky. Their skeletons, just unearthed,
show by the attitudes that they were fighting
when they died.”. But why continue to pub
lish items calculated to retard southern emi
gration? Let by-gones be by-gones; what
the country wants is reconciliation —genuine
recocyiation.
ECHOES OF THE DAI.

may be regarded, this day and hour, as a

A demi mondalne of Washington obtained
a front seat in tbe Senate gallery one day
last week, and dropped from her Coign of

desk of a dignified Senator beneath. He

arms, and that stern official led tbe fair and
frail one out of tbe gallery by her liny, shell
like car.— Washington Letter.
The crime ot Mr. Beecher has preached a
sermon more impressive than any ever de
livered from his pulpit. He has written a
testimony to be read of all men, showing
the danger of departing from the old land
marks of religion that have been placed on
tbe highway of life by men whose wind and
example the world will uot willingly let die,
and whose wisdom, despite ihe attacks of
infidelity and rationalism and socialism and
all the isms of latter day philosophers, now
shines in bolder relief than ever before. —

The Want of Brains in tbe Democratic
Party.
New York Sun.
The Democratic leaders feel so sure of the
Presidency at tho next election that they
think it matters not wbat course they pur
sue in tbe intermediate time. They con
sider that they start out iu the contest with
a solid South in their favor, and that against
such tremendous odds it will be in vain for
the Republican hosts to contend.
That the Democrats have greatly the ad
vautag. in tbe preference for their party
throughout all the old slave states is unde
niable; yet hardly any odds are so great
that they cannot be thrown away. Tbe dis
satisfaction among the Democratic masses
at tbe failure to inaugurate Mr. Tilden is
not only general but Intense. We know
that it is common in this state for Demo
crats to say: “What is the use of going to
the polls?" We elected one man, and then
couldn’t get him in.” And tbe distrust felt
toward all those who were concerned in
throwing away tbe election by agreeing to
the electoral commission seems likely to be
permanent.
If a majority of the Democrats in Con
gress are iound, no matter how, consenting
to tbe retention of the Presidency by Mr.
Hayes at the end of the term, it would uot
surprise us to find the Democratic voters so
disgusted with the want of brains, or the
want of fidelity, or both, in the Kaders, that
they would let the next Presidential election
go by default.
Tne Republican party is not dead yet.
THE LATE WILLIAM M. TWEED.
An Incident of Ills Career Related by a
Resident of Cincinnati.
Cincinnati Enquirer.
A gentleman ot this city, formerly a resi
dent of New York, yesterday related to an
Enquirer representative an Incident of the
career of the late Boss Tweed. “I bad,” said
the gentleman,“an up-town office,for the care
of which I had engaged an Irishman re
cently arrived in this country, who made his
visits regularly each morning, sweeping the
office, building fires, etc. He was a quiet,
industrious fellow, but four months over the
waters, and evidently with but few friends
or acquaintances in the city. One day he
failed to come, but in his place came
another man, who performed the morning
duties, staling that Pat was sick. The next
morning be camo again, and tbe next
and the next, until I concluded that Pat
was really sick and might be in want, and
so concluded to look him up, which I did. I
found him down in the “Swamp,” living in
tbe fourth story of a tenement building, bis
family occupying but a single room, and
evidently in absolute poverty, having had,
as I soon after learned, but the small sum
paid for the care of my office—an hour’s
work per day—for the sustenance of himself
and family. I inquired after bis condition,
and finding that be was really sick, offered
him money and any assistance I could ren
der him. “Ob, no,” said be. “I don’t
need anything now; tbe Boss has been here.”
“Who is the Boss?” said I. “I don’t know
his other name,” he said, only they call him
the Boss, and he is a very kind gentleman,
and says I shan’t suffer for anything while
I’m sick.”
While we were talking tbe Boss entered.
He was a large, tine looking man, quiet,
dignified, and well dressed, and I thought at
first a clergyman. He was accompanied by
some men carrying a good bed, table, and
other furniture, to make the room look com
fortable, and a quantity of provisions—flour,
meat, sugar, tea, etc. —enough to last
the family for a considerable time. He paid
no attention to me, but entered into conver
sation with the sick man and theu with tbe
wife, who, overcome with gratitnde, seized
bis band and covered it with kisses and
tears of gratitude, meanwhile showering
upon him her thanks and blessings. He
continued his conversation with them, ad
vising and telling them they should want
for nothing, and was about leaving when I
addressed him, assuring him of my
gratitude on behalf of the unfortunate mau
and proposing to share with b|m the
care of tbe invalid and bis family
as far as my means would allow, stating at
the lame time iny relations with tbe man
in question. “Your |offer," he replied, “is
very kind aud one uot at all ^common, but
I have taken charge of tbe matter, and you
need give yourself no further trouble. They
shall want lor nothing,” and without fur
ther remark be departed. 1 continued, how
ever, to send Pat bls little weekly salary un
til he recovered, when he returned lo my
employ. One day I questioned him in regard
to bis benefactor, when be told me bad
learned that his name was Tweed, com
monly known as tbe “Boss,” aud, said he,
“be is the Boss for kindness, for he never
let me want for anything while I was sick.”
Wbat Tweed’s object was In this,or whether
it was anything more than simple generosity,
1 don’t pretend to say, Tbe man had only
been over four months, aud would uot be a
voter lor four and one-half years,and it could
uot have been bis vote that the “Boss” was
working for at so early a day In bls lite in
America.
