18 IT Dom:ixe, *
A* if by concert., or at the inst iga! ion of a
superior power, several Democratic papers
lui ak out in declarationa obviously intended
to lelieve the party from the responsibility of
making a thorough revision of the tariff this
?oar. Ono points on' that the condition of the
Treasury, with gold going out of the country
and larg.' additions every month to tho poper
circulation and revenue* -scarcely equal to Bp
propriations, must render it extremely difficult
for a Democratic Condies* lo revise the tariff
iu accordance with its belief*! and pledges.
What it might have done with safety, it is
said, when the Treasury held a large surplus.
and the revenue exceeded expenditures, ami
gold was coming in. cannot now he done with?
out the greatost risk under Ihe altered condi?
tions. In effeot. the people who care for Free
Trade more than for anything else are warned
that they may get no prog read in that direc?
tion unless silver pm chases can lil st be ".topped.
Moro cantiotisl... but with the .--ame obvious
intent, " The New-York Times" editorially
argues that tariff reform is iii present )e*s Im?
portant than a settlement of the silver Ques?
tion. "Mr. Cleveland," it mys, "cannot help
detering that this imperative condition to order
and prosperity shall b'' prompt!"" fulfilled be?
fore tho mor." complex took of tariff reform is
taken up." It then startles the souls of aident
reformers by inch declarations as these:
Thc tariff l.* nat n "natter of lawMdlate arni nial

lt is an interesting admission thal the " evils"
of a Protective Tariff "can be endured another
year or two if Bt*ceasaiy.'' When one remem
bera bow often the McKinley Lill bas been
pronounced abaolntcly unendurable, how often
it has been aoaerted thai this odious measure
crushed agriculture and prostrated all surfs of
industries, and robbed the people of from
(700,000,000 to il,000,000,000 yearly, it
*ci'in> amazingly eool to remark thal this state
of things can I.e endured for another year Ol
tsvo. Ilavo the-." Ires Traders never believed
any of their charges against ibis moot maligned
measure? Or have they become convinced, as
other people have been by tho marvellous pros*
pei i's pali/.-d tinco tl).' McKinley tariff went
into effect, that the longer they I-t it al ii"
the longer Iheir Administration will have the
advantigo of active trade, thriving Industries
and rising wages?
Straight ocrosa the pathway stands the ugly
and threatening barrier of a currency demoral?
isation, says "The Times." lint by what po>
?ible distortion of reasoning can it be said that
this grave evil, only apprehended as y?t but
by no means certain t-> bo realix-d, can be a
barrier to the removal of those " outrageous
and intolerable burdens.'' amounting to from
9700,000,000 to 81,000,000,000 yearly, which
the people have to Liar? If the Free Traders
have been telling any truth whatever in all
these \ears, if they have even supposed them?
selves to be telling any truth, they must look
upon the removal of tariff burdens as a cer?
tain and wonderfullv powerful stimulus to pub?
lic prosperity, sufficient far to outweigh any
disadvantages or losse* which can result from
the present outgo of gold.
These Utterances ot Democratic, journals go
far to support the impression that Mr. Cleve?
land and his closest advisers have found the
tariff question s, dangerous to touch that lli.\
.ni' *tnving bard ti manufacture an excuse foi
deferring all action thereon. liven in their
own minds, perhaps, they aie not yet ready to
admit that the McKinley Lill has brought a
prosperity so general and mi gratifying that
they cannot afford to disturb it. Hut thai ia
tho way the people will surely Interpret theil
action or refusal to act, if they follow the
course foi eshadow eil I.y some Democratic
journals. _
Till: UII.I.-MUREUY COLDNESS.
A painful but apparently well-grounded
rumor i*- afloat in Albany which ciediis 8en
ait.i-elect Murphy with having designs upon
ihe p iwci and prestige of his Senatorial brother
Hill. Pei haps the rumor should occasion no
surprise, sinoe it is a proverb that Iwo of a
tiade cannot agree. Doth of these gentlemen
ire machinists by trade; their methods are the
?atti', their aims are ihe same. Wit li both
politics is a game, and Loth play it primarily
in the interest of their own individual, seliish
ambition. Nevertheless, the rumor in ques?
tion will OOcasion a good deal of amazement
and questioning. These two of a trade have
agreed so long that the public had grown to
believe that they were going to prove an ex?
ception to the rule.
The appointment by Governor Flower of
Mr. Van Vket to thc piesdencv of the Civil
Service Board means the triumph of Murphy
it the expense cf Hill. In order to make this
plate?a place of considerable consequence?for
Van Vie.t n close friend vi Hill was sitcri
lood. Naturally, thc talk in Albany is of a
Mnrphy-rioivcr combination. Let such an at?
tempt be successful]* made aud what would
become of HUI? lt might occur io him that
the time had arrived in his active career for
tiiin i.) turn his back UOOfl politics and devote
himself exclusively to the law. Still, this i?
aol quita certain, for BS we all know David
s full of resources and has plenty of plink,
.licked Ly g./od staving qualities. Hut if Mur
)hy and Flower tami him il is difficult to sec
iow he can make good their loss. ,\., nui
\ I hauy correspondent points out, "Hill m?n
kith ono kr one, disappearing from places of
power in the State administration, and men
doner to Governor Flower or to Mr. Murphy
are tabing their plates." Of course Hill ap?
preciates ihe precise political significance of
every appointment and removal which the Gov?
ernor makes, and thus far. if we mistake not,
he has not, said or done anything indicative
of dissatisfaction. I* he biding his time, or
has he become ton vim ed thiit hi* future as
a political bo-.s js till behind him?
This thing i* certain?tbat Governor Flower,
ono of the most ambitions of men. never would
consent to desert Hill fol Murphy unlcs* he
felt sure that HUI was the going and Murphy
the coming man in the Democratic politics
of this State. If, is fair to .'issiune that Mr.
Flower will be a candidate L>r renomination
next year, and that the buzzing of the Presi?
dential bee in his bonnet will Ix* among the
sounds of spring and early summer in 1800.
Win. is likely to do the mote to give him a
lift in the direction lie would go? The an?
swer furnished In the Van Vint and other
appointments i-. Murphy.
Ir was given out after ihe a-t ut" Trojan's
election to the Senate Ihat lie did not intend to
antagonize the Cleveland Administration. A*
for Hill, no such olive branch has been tendered
by him, or by any one in his behalf, so far as
is known. It would not be surprising if Flower
and Murphy had decided to hold up the hands
of Cleveland, with the nndeistanding, of c mrse,
that their xivi.es should not go unrewarded.
On ihe whole, there is good reason t? suspect
thai Senator Hill i* not enjoying himself these
days, and especially that he is a prey to re?
flections touching the uncertainty of the white
man. _____

Even Democratic newspapers in this city ad?
mit thai the condition of affairs In tho Coroners'

Coroners neglects his duties in the ni"-t shame

prolonged and deplorable extent. The public

PAXSY A XD Ell li AX.
Either In a spiril of noble emulation of the
'rench Chamber of Depution or because in*
tpired by the circumstance that in a little
non* than a month thc Democratic party will

t ha* n,t enjoyed f, i more than timi) years,
mr own National House of It?*prc-icntativi i on

Bakes them ?ensitive and I ruchy and excites

ratio member from Iowa, ss ho has distin

he pansy as the National emblem, attempted
0 defeat tome items in an appropriation lull
i.v raiting points of order. Mr. blanchard, a
icinociatic member from Louisiana, intimated
hilt the Iowa horticulturist was put up t.. that
ort of thing by the sly, economical Holman.
Ihe insinuation roused the ire of the hort!*
ultnrist. The pansy suddenly rose t., the
eight of a lunflower. With a flowing gesture

will not have a monopoly of this sort of thing.
A LONDON DAY.
The fortnight of extreme cold with which
human kind in this latitude was favored last
month could only be adequately appreciated
after such a day as yesterday. The low tem?
perature then was not only tolerable, but even
invigorating and exhilarating in comparison
with the higher temperature of a genuine
I.uiuloii day. with a stagnant, humid atmos
phere .inti a suffocating fog rairharged with an
accumulation of city smoke. Through the
dens* medium of Impenetrable mist and noxious
fog the retrospect of thi' cold fortnight, with
ifs clear light, div air and Wholesome ionic foi
enfeebled lunga and pulse isa* refracted as a
hie ting unappreciated at the time, but none
the h's, leal.
The New-York climate is not without it*
flaws, but it is ordinarily exempt from th"
characteristic evils of London weather. Such
a fog a* that of yeaterday i* so rare as t ,
excite a*tonishmenl and dismay here, but i' is
a very common experience in English cities
Turner was perhaps the only Englishman who
ever found it picturesque. Ile loved the worst
London weather, and was content to in,unit to
hi* housetop where he could dian- Inspiration
fi,un endless vista, of fog, without form and
Void. The mole prailii.il instinct of investi?
gators of unitary science has discerned the
brooding presence of tickness and mortality in
these prevailing f >gs. The death-rate is al
ways highest tn London during inch visita?
tions. Dining the memorable winter of
l?7!?-s0. when the fog did nol liff for week*,
th" mortality was as high a* it ever was din?
ing the sevcresl outbreak of cholera. "This j>
pneumonia weather!" was an exclamation fie
quently beard yesterday in the tfrecta of N, tv
Voik. which were as dark at noon as thev are
ordinarily al dusk. It was mote iricntuic than
the contention.il comments of the weather

wind**wepl city during tin- greater put of the
year, and almost invariably during th., winter.
With its thousands ?,f < himneya discharging
smoke and "ther products of combustion into
the atmosphere, it requires the most favorable
r nditiona fur tho dispersion of *umt, rorbonir
oxide and sulphurous gases. When the wm,I
dies on* and a dense sea ("^ settle-i upon th"
town, the ful breath ?,f all th"*,' thousand*)
,,f .billin") s mingles with the n,i*t and in
rrcriB-es th" volume of watery vapor in Hie

substitute is found for coal combustion in heat?
ing bouses and keeping factory wheels in
motion.
Disagreeable as was yesterday's experience
ni New-York, not a little txrnsolation ran be
drawn from the fact thal while the aim, sphere
;* ordinarily humid iiml filled with tbe fumes
.,f combustion, the wind* are constant and thc
conditions seldom admit <>f ? visitation ol
genuine London fog. It is al hast one of the
redeeming features of a cliinat" which receives
at iill times undue censure and too little ap.
predation) thal ii offers exemption from fog.
