Tbe 1 wlat oh Ibe Party. HoaiHy and McLean are worrying the Democracy in Ohio; in New York it ie Jqhn Kelly; in Massachusetts Butler has so firm a hold that it woold be hard to shake him off; In New Jersey a disgraceful convention has named for Governor a man ol malo dorous character and there are threats of slaughter; in Pennsylvania the State admlnislration ring has tilled the State with disgust; in Indiana the party is distracted by the rival ambitions of Hendricka and McDonald; in the South and West the growing manufactures are giving the party managers a world of tariff trouble; everywhere the party Is plagued by Its record. All these things are distracting. But the one question which gives the party most uneasiness Is the mnch dis cussed and still unsettled question of Til den's candidacy. Mr. Dana says the old man Is out of the field. Mr. Dana is liber ally suspected of wanting to clear the field with a view of entering It himself. He Is booming Holman, but Holman is thought to be Dana's blind. Mr. Watteraon says Tilden is out. Mr. Watteraon has a con tract to crown McDonald. But they are all afraid of Tilden, and this accounts tor the tricks they plBy on him. It is worthy of notice that inquiries turn more upon Tiiden's desire for the nomina tion than his ability to get it. Everybody seems to feel that if he wants it he will get it; and after that?what? Can he be elect ed? He was not elected in 1870, when he had tbe advantage of not being so- well known as ho is now. But the country has grown since 1870. and perhaps it has grown down to Mr. Tiiden's standard. The only way to determine this important question is to nominate Mr. Tilden. We regret to seo that the party is not unanimous for Tilden. The lack of a oneness ef purpose, so to speak, touching this dead-and-alive issue is what is sorely perplexing the Democratic party, to the overshadowing ol all questions. It is a queerspectacle, this utter helplessrera of a great party in tie presence of an old man. The Anylnni naungement. ItTui Intsluokkccs has passed some criticisms upon the management of the In sane Asylum. Democratic politicians and Democratic newspapers havo charged that in this, as in tke criticisms on the Uni versity management the Ixtiixioksckb was moved by a desire to Injure the Demo cratic party. The motive is of less moment than the facts. The questions for the re sponsible political party to consider is, Are the accusations well founded? Are these institutions well founded ? The Xktbixigkmckr is willing to weaken the Democratic party in open, honorable warfare. As a newspaper, under soino ob ligations to the public, the Iktblugencbk is much more concerned about the proper management ef those institutions which are supported by public money, and which ought to be maintained in the public inter est or not at all. Being "by the people" they ought to be "for tke people," or we would better do away with them. Let ua see what the Morgantown New Dominion, a Democratic newspaper, has to say about the insane Asylum: Under the ex ?:lng organization of the Weston Asylum it is, andean be. little else than a great jail. So one can superintend live or six hundred pstients and sttiie same lime become tbe business executive ot a great institution like that. The businsss de partment Is sclHcient to occupy ths entire time and strength of one man. And the medial department, 1/ properly conducted, would require the labors ot a corps of expe rienced pltyslclans. Yet Dr. Blamtls saddled with the entire load, and yet ths Republican critics arenot happy that he does not appear sufficient to do the work of ten men, Here is an admission that the Insane Asylum is not conducted as it ought to be. Everybody will admit that it ought to be something more and better than a "great jail"; that there ought to be a sufficient corps of experienced physicians; and that unless the medical department is properly conducted the Insane Asylum is a melan choly failure. These defects are properly attributed to the "existing organization," and for this the Democratic party is responsible. That party has bad a majority in the Legisla ture. It has elected the executive, and has the appointing power in ils own hands. Beeponaibility the world over goes with power. A party can not expect to enjoy the sweets of place without accepting the wormwood and gall of misadminlstratlon. The Democratic party in West Virginia will help itself more by trying to right the wrong it has done than by Imputing sinis ter motives to those who call attention to its sins. The IirriM,iOKXCKit is encouraged to believe that the people have resolved to resume control of their affairs. JOUM MltOWM AuaiM. Movements ol "Old OseawMomle" ?a HhIim bjr Jailer Arle-UlHlnr tbe Kfiro Child. It', r. Oriat to PkUvMpMe Tlmn. To the last will and testament of John Brown, as it is recorded in the office of the County Clerk at Charleetown, Wsst Vir ginia, the following codicil Is attached: J'1 wish myfr ends, James W.Campbell, Sheriff, and John A, Avis, jailer, as a re turn for their kindness, each to have a Sharp a rifle of those belonging to me, or it n0QL ,5!? be ">en each a pistol." Sheriff Campbell Is long since dead, and the announcement in to-day's Tima of the decease of Captain Avis, "tbe jailer of John no related to me as recently as last vear concerning the last moments of his cele brated captive. At the time of this conver sation Captain Avis was a Justice of the Peace in Charleetown. Notwithstanding the ravages of rheumatism and the quite evident feebleness with which he h.ta, ,?lxty-four years ho waa on duty at bla office, over the Cborlestown market house, and talked freely of his famous prisoner. He said that the Super intendent of the, United States Armoryat Harper'sFerry had, in accord with Brown's bequest, given him one of the csptiired rifles and a pistol as well. The former was seized by a Union eoldlsr during the war and the latter is in the posssasion of his ^nten"^ATifc*grfdMteo1 West In &!l" ?rpMD'Kf'iok the Government in Colorado. "That you people who re ported brutal treatment ol Brown by mo Th'/wTO"* ",ld "<? evidenced by y ?!?,Uo,n B">m raa(le ol me in His will, and it la further confirmed by the fact thit upon the morning of IBe dav for the hinging of Cook and Ooppee, two of Brown a companion** in arms, they tossed op a cbip. rfet and dry, to determine which one should have me to fix the rope around Muck. Md Cook woB." The manner, look and talk pf the old man were sufficieni proof of a natural kindly disposition. I asked Captain A via whether or not it was true that John Brown, on the day of bia execution, atopped and kiased a little negro ahiW.aa Groeley asaerta in hia bia tory and as Whittier baa put into rhyme: John Brown, of Omwatomio, they lead him out to ale. And lo! a poor ?U?e mother with her JltUe child prinnfd nlsh; Then the hold blue oyes Brew tender, and the old harsh faoe grew mild, And he Hopped between the Jeering ranks and klMod the negro's child. 1 He aaid that Brown was taken from tho jail to the scaffold in a apring wagon, in which were the driver, the Sheriff, two guards and himaelf, that he was beaide the priaoner from tho time he walked out of the cell until the fatal drop was sprung; that the slory haa no baaia in fact what ever. No doubt the origin of this pretty i piece of sentiment is duo to its plausibility . ?to the fact that the rough and grizzly yet tenderand blue-eyed father might do just auch a thing, thua paying bis last respects j to a race for whoso doliveranee ho and three of his aona faced and met death. , ,7slhe f880?'on t0 ?*' | fold,' contiuued Avis, "the only thing that I can remember Brown saying was, 'You have a beautiful country.' On the scaffold I adjusted the rope, and juet beforo the High Sheriff gave the signal I asked Brown if he bad anything to Bay. Hia reply, the last words he ever uttered; was: "No; be quick." Now that Captain Avis is dead, Richard Parker, of Winchester, the Judge who tried Brown; Andrew Turner, of ujiarlea town, who asaisted the Diatrict Attorney in the prosecution, and one juror, whoao name I do not know, are the only persons ofliciallv identified with tho trial, prison life and execution of "Old Oasawatomio" who survive the aesaullsof time. Even the old jail has disappeared before the de cay of yeara and the strides of progress, and a new and decidedly docile-looking build ing, more resembling a pleasant dwelling than a dark dungeon, atanda juet across the street from the house wheiein justice is judicially administered. DEATH IN CHE CAUP. Disease More Fatal limn the Buliel-h* tercftllnir CouipariMOus. Quarterly Set Uw. The historian of the Napoleonic ware haa many threads jo weave into his narra tive, and the thread of sickness is apt to show, perhaps, less conspicuously than Its importance deserves. But the hiatorian of medicine and of epidemic diaeaaes sup plies hia omiesionfl; and it is indeed a ghaatly narrative that he gives. The hor | rora of typhus and dysentery in the Rua l sian campaign of 1812, and in such sieges as that of Tongau in the year following, I aro beyond all description. Nothing in the i modern world for which the will of an in dividual can be held accountable over came so near to realizing the monstrous imagination of Macbeth: 0/ Natures germenittralVaU together, Even till destruction alckeu"? Of the army numbering 600,000 that cross ed the Vistula in the Spring of 1812 only some bands of stragglers found their way back, without arms, their clothes in rags, and spreading typhus us they went. ?The Third Army Corps, commanded byl<ey, was forty-three thousand strong when it set out, and when it re-entered Poland all that remained of it was a rag ged group of Bome twenty persons Bur rounding the Marshal. Oao of th m nasthe Sugeon deKerckhove, who afterword wrote the medical history of the campaign. In Vilna, out of a total of 80,000 French pris oners, 25.000 died of lyphus, and tho dis ease carried off 8,000 of the poor Jews liv ing in the town. In the Hospital of St. Ig natius an eye-witn?salssaid to have seen one. OI the wards filled three times over with fifty typhus pationts and three times emptied of fifty dead <iodies. A? a contrast to theee unSfligated hor rors let us take the proportion of sickness and mortality among the German troops in the Franco-German war. The Germans croesed the Rhine iu the summer and autumn of 1870'to the number of 913,907. Of these there perished, from one cause or another, -14.890, including 17,572 who were killed in battle, 10,710 who died in the hospital pf their wounds, and 12,253 who (lied of sickness and pestilence. Tho rela tively small amount oi sickness in tho cam paign is referred to with just pride by Prof. Virchow, in an address from which we take the figures, and which we shall notice further. It will be better appreciated by comparing the figures, for the Crimean war and for the American civil war. In the former the French lost in all 95.015 men; of these only 10,240 fell hefore the enemy, about tho same number died of ?heir wounds, and the enormoUB residue of <5,000 fell victims to camp sick ness and pestilence. In the Ameri can civil war it is estimated that 97,000 deaths occurred in battle or subsequently from wounds received, and that 184,000 died of sickness. "What immeasurable suffering and pain!" exclaims Virchow. What a sea ot bloed and tears la con tained in these figures! How much, too, of defective practice, of prejudice, of erron eous opinion!" The lesson of these calam ities, ho shows, was not thrown away upon the citizens of the United States; their gi gantic medical history of the war has been a mine of specific information and of prac tical experience for the military surgery and hygiene of later times. When the Germans entered on the war with France, EayB Prof. Vircbow, they had the well-di gesied experience of two recent campaigns of their own; tbey had also the inestima ble experiences of the Americans, and, fin ally, they had German science?"wir hatten die deutsche Wissenschaft." Nlateaud Henr*bx Prom. The Marshall Herald baa suggested the name of Judge John J. Jackson, asaemi nent Democratic Congressional candidate. The Morgantown New Dominion is guilty of rank treason when it thinks Tilden "old and decrepit?unfit lor the strain of a campaign." The Marshall Herald continues to fly the name of Thomas F. Bayard, of Dela ware at tho head of its columns for Presi dent in 1884. The Bellaire Tribune has started in on its third year of usefulness. It is a bright, progressive little paper, and is appreciated by its people. Morgantown wanlsto entertain the next Democratic State convention. The A'? Dominion promises to have the "Athens" do herself proud on the occasion. Editor Kockbold, ol the Wirt Tranicrint, has altered in site and improved the make up of his paper, making it one of the neat est and most interesting State exchanges. And now It is understood that Editor Pe terson contemplates adding to his paper a daily edition. Newspapom in tills State seem to be booming. The more the mer rier. The State press for the past month has been filled with stories about big tomatoes and potatoes, with au occasional snake story. They show no improvement over those of former years. The Parkeisburg Sentirul has decided that there iB no contest us to the propri etary right to the use of the streets of that Since. "The hogs are the owners anJ ouncil is their friend." The Phiiippi Republican says that as charge after charge of mismanagement in the affairs of the University and Asylum have been made, an investigation without any whitewashing would bo the proper thing. The Martinsburg Herald completes ils third year and ?nters upon another with renewed evidences of success. Tho Utrahl is a well written, carefully corrected, hard hitting Republican newspaper which de servee the confidence of Its growing con stituency. It may be relied on to express a manly opinion on every matter of public Interest. The Kanawha QateUe says that "there Is a whisper moving about to the effect that there la a dark horse in tiie Gubernatorial stable that will astonish the natives by his a peed when at the list moment he is pat on the track." The Gautlt, probably, haa hot heard that Camden, Kenna & Co.,have saved the Democracy any trouble about thia little matter by trotting out that a weep atake winner, Henry G. Mr. George Puroell, formerly editor of the Kingwood Atvut, but who receDtly purchaaea the Clarkeburg Newt, haa asso ciated with him Mr. George Unstable, of Harrison county. They have a good pa per and start out auspiciously. Pledging their best energies to the work, they de serve the generous and cordial co-opera tion of all the good people of. Harrison county who desire a clean family paper. Mr. Taney, the former editor of the Newt, has the Intblliokncr's best wishes for his future success. HoreJEvldenca. B. B. Hartuan & Co. Oiborn.
