Sciiuiiz, at Nashville, has created quite a commo tion in tho radical party, and tho sen ator is now being denounced along tho whole line as a recreant to his political principles. An Jionest politician can a . louj. remain in the radical party. " I Always Liste.v to Gov. Ogles 1 by with pleasure, " said Qov. Palmer in his speech to tho republican state convention the other day, "for when ho ' gets to sweating there is no person in ' the state equal to him. " Sweat is Oglesby's strong point. He cau talk, and sweat, and paugh, smell to ! with great ability. He reeks to heaven when he orates. The time has come, " savs the Chicago Tribune, " when the republi- ' can party must exhibit faith in the ' wi-dom and justice of their own ' acts. " Ab well ask the plunderer, or murUercr, ur miscellaneous rascal to be lieve in the justice of his acts. Even the hypocritical pretence on the part of republicans of belief in the goodness of their inexcusable sinfulness has become tiresome to tho deceut element of the party, who are commencinK to slowly withdrawn the covering from tho mysterious meal tub of radical iniquity.

This is a freo country, for women as ,wcll as, men, and if Mrs. Woodhull chooses to get mar ricd and divorced, and to got married and divorced ngain,cach time to a differ ent spocinicn oi tho genus homo, and then to live under tho pamo roof with both, nobody can say her nay, even if she wcro to ropcat the operation half a dozen times instead of twico. But wc do insist that it is an insult to tho moral senso ot society and tho rchncmont of tho age for Mrs. Woodhull and her co-workers to counsel and expect oth er women to dolikowisc, Tho reformers who run tho iVcelcly would reform tho world backwards, not by such slow growths as it labored-, through to reach tbc present era of light and knowledge, but,bent on swift dcstruction,they would tear down tho most Bacrcd and tho most powerful of all tho landmarks of civili zation, the institution of marriage, sure that in its fall tho blackness of darkness would envelop the moral world. Ouit Munn, who was president of tho lato radical stato .convention, is an ora tor of a peculiar kind. Lacking a well-filled store houso of ideas, ho ekes out tho deficiency by a plentiful abund- anco of words, and with "woven paces, " flying arms and piercing voico as saults, the attention of his audiences, and at tho conclusion of his harangues leaves them impressed with the belief that they havo been listening J.o sound and witnessing fury that signifies noth ing. On taking tho chair in the radical convention Ihe'olEer day, Major Munn made one of his characteristic speeches and won considerable applause. In therCQurse of his harranguo he declared that the"go-rato republican party ' could ncver-r-r die or bo crushed out. ' The effort to crush it would bo like an 1 effort to crush tho Bocky mountains 1 an attempt to crush tho mountains r would blister tho hand that made tho ' attempt. So the republican party pro ' poso to blister the democratio ' party this fall, and tan them next fall." Tho attempt to crush tho Rocky mountains would, Major Munn says, blister tho hand that made tho at tempt; and the logical conclusion must he,.that,.tiiiico tho radical party is as difficult to crush, as tho Bocky. moun tains, the hand that attempted to crush that party 'would bo also blistered. This is not, however, the major's con clusion. The republican party, ho assert), propose to blister the democrat ic party this fall and Ian them next lecauso an effort to crush tho republi can party would bo like an attempt to rush the.Kooky mountains, which at tempt would blister tho hand that made All this is as clear as mud. A school boy who would bungle in speech ike Major Munn should have another part of his persou than his hand blis tered. The Pkoiua DkmoOiiat says that tho nomination of Gen. Boveridgo by the republican stato convention for congress from the state at large was signal victory of Springfield over Pco ria ou tho capitol removal question "Now," adds the Democrat, " if tho ' way sensibly aud nominate somo such 1 man as Tom Turner, Tom Hoync, or ' General Cameron, who were 'fast friends of Peoria, they will ' carry tho military track (by ati over whelming majority." The"j5emocri has taught itself to believe that all Ucstions, moral, social, religious and political, have been merged in tho question of tho removal of tho state capitol from Springfield to Peoria. Any man who has lived at Springfield, or ucen so rccticss ot the truth as to praise that city, is in tho eyes of the Democrat unworthy )f countenanco but all tho " Peoria men " aro excol- lent citizens, entitled to the miff. r ,. i-. .i .i. it..... , . . ,i be boosted into places of honor, and profit. Not because it lovea Turner n n lit or llqyne or tamoron, but beoaujo Turner and Hoyno nnd Cameron were on Peoria'H Hide in the capitol removal fight, tho Democrat ouggests them as the men from whom a congressional candidato Bhould bo Beleotcd by the domocrats. If Springfield is as unreas onable as Peoria would not the Spring- tioldiaus go back on auy Jnend of Peo na ? Of courso Springfield ought not w bo bo foolish, but it would be.

JOAQUIN MILLER, THE POET OP THK PLAINS. SOMOI or THE !JltllIU! 11 X JdiQl'IN Mutes. Pub- iistieu iijr uoucris urus., uoRion. Ton pooms aro contained in this volume. Tlioir nhtnes aro "Arlzonlan," "With Wal ker In Nlcarngun," "Oallfornlan," "Tho Last Taschastas," "Ina," 'Tho Talo of tho Tall Alcalde," "Kit Canon's Ride," "Hums and Byron," "Myrrh," and "Even So." In somo respects Mr. Millor Is tho most original poet tho United Statos has pro duced. For tha intorost which ho oxcites ho does not depend upon tho introduction of vulgar bits of realism that havo mado tho roputatlon of ono or two vorslflors who aroontlrolydostltulo of his depth nnd strength of naturo. In "Kit Carson's Ride," he appears In an exceptional llcht. That poem Is not typical of his power. Itii a moro caprlco. a flash In tho pan. tho fitful representation of ono mood of his mind, and that notaYoryporraanontmood. Tho poem ontltlod "With Walker In Nic arauga" is much moro a roprosontatlvo production, illustrating, as it docs, tho no bleness, tho swoctnesj, tho passionato lovo of women and of nature which aro charac teristic of Mr. Millor, blont with that in genuous adoration that an ardent boy fools lor tho man whom hoorocts into a hero. For thoso reasons wo Incllno to consider tho ptoin wo havo thus especially men tioned, as tho purest and strongest In tho book. It Is disordered with no dark and illegitimate passion, as moro than ono of the other poems aro. Tho broath that blows, now vigorously, now tendorly through it, is always sweet, frogrant and healthy. The descriptions of naturo are maoo with a loving, lingering, warm and conscientious nana, ximt this is so, will, wo think, bo dlscomed in tho appended quotation : How wound wo through tho solid wood, With all its broad boughs hung in green, wuu mencn-mosses trail a boiwcen How waked tho spotted beasts of prey, Deep sleeping from tho faco of dav, And dash'd them llko a troubled llood Down somo defllo and denser wood I And snakes, long, litho nnd bountiful As green and graceful-bough'd bamboo, Did twist And twine thorn through nnd through Tho boughs that hung red-fruited full. One, monstcr-sized, nbovo me hung, Closo oved mo with Its britrht nlnlV eves. Tlion raised his folds, and swny'd nnd swung, Then oped his wi3o mouth with surprise Ho writhed and curved, nnd raised nnd lower'd His folds llko liftings of tho tide, And sank so low I touched his sido. As I rodo by, with my broad sword. Tho trees shook hands high ovorhcad, And bow'd and intertwined across Tho narrow way, whilo leaves and moss And luscious fruit, gold-huod and red, Through nil tho canopy of green, Let not ono sunshaft shoot between. Birds hung and swung, green robed nnd red, Or droop'd in curved lines dreamily, Rtinbows roverscd, from treo to treoj Or sang low-banging overhead Sang low, as if they sang and slopt, Sang faint, llko somo far waterfall, And took no noto of us at all. Though nuts that In tho way woro spread, Hid crush and crucklo as wo slept. Wild lilies, tall as maidens are, As sweet of breath, us pearly fair, As fair us faith, ns puro us truth, Full thick boioro our every tread, As in asacrillco to ruth, And nil tho air with perfumo flll'd Moro sweet than over man distilled. Tho ripened fruit a fragranco shed And hung in hand-reach overhead. In nest of blossoms on tho shoot, The bonding shoot that boro tho fruit.

Thoy brought tho belt steed of tho band, Thoy swung a bright sword at my sldo, Ho mado mo mount and by him ride, And from that hour to tho ond 1 novor folt tho ncod of frlond. Mr. Miller nlso possesses tho power of making a plcturo stand out with wondor ful distinctness. As ovidence, road tho subjolnod description of ono of his Nlca raugan episodes : Far in tho wildest qulnlno wood Wo found a city old so old Its vory walls woro turn'd to mould, And statoly trcos upon them stood. No history has niontlon'd it, No map has givon it a placo ; Tho last dim traco of trlbo and race The world's forgctfulncss is tit. It held one structuro grand and moss'd, Mighty ns nny castlo sung, And old whon oldest Ind was young, With threshold Christian nover cross'd; A temple bulldcd to tho sun, Along whoso sombro altar-stono Brown bleeding virgins had been itrown Llko loaves, whon leaves aro crisp and dun, In ages cro tho Sphinx was born, Or Babylon had birth or morn. My chief led up tho marblo stop Ho over led, broad blado in hand When down tho stones, with doublo hand Clutch'd to his blade, a savage leapt, Hot bont to bartor lifo for llfo. Tho chieftain drovo his bowlo knifo Full through his thick and broad breast bone, And broko tho point against the stono, Tho dark stono of tho tomplo wall. I saw him looso his hold and fall Full length with head hung down tho step ; i law run uown a ruuuy uoou Of rushing pulsing human blood. Then from tho crowd a womon cropt A -.I i.r...' i .i i .1 - i ' 4iuu iwsB u iuu t;ury jiuiius unu lavu, And smoto herself. Then ono bv ono Tho dark crowd cropt and did tho same, men noro mo uoau man irom the place. .uown aarucn d aisles mo brown priests came, So picture-like, with sandall'd feet And long gray dismal grass-wovo gowns, So Hko tho pictures ot old time, And stood all still and dark of frowns, At blood upon tho stono and street, a. w9 '?'? """V uanu w sword And boldly spoko somo bitter word ; Hut thoy wcro stubborn still, and stood Dark frownlnc as a winter wood. And mutt'rlng something of tho crime Of blood upon tho tomplo stono, As if tho ilrst that it had known. Wo turned toward tho massive door With clash of stool at heel, and with Somo swords all red and ready drawn. I traced the sharn cdiro of in v sword Along tho marblo wall and floor t or crack or crovico j moro was none. From ono vast mount of marblo stono Tho mighty tomplo had boon corod i liy nut-brown children ot tho sun, When stars wero newly bright and blithe Of song along tho rim of dawn, w iniguiy maruio inonoiuui Something of tho characteristics wo have specified aro also visiblo in tbo concluding passages of this poem. Thoso passages nro rather long, but sinco they present somo of Mr. Miller's host qualities in a very attractive light, wo glvo full ploy to tho qnotation : Years after, sheltor'd front the sun Beneath a Sacramento bay, A black Muchacho by mo lay Along tho long grass crisp and dun, ills brown mulo browsing by ms siue, And told with all a. peon's prido How ho once fought, how long and well, Broad breast to breast, red hand to hand, Against a foe for his fair land, And now tno norco invaaer ion ; And artless told mo how ho died. To die with hand and brow unbound Ho gavo his gems and jsword sword j Thus at last tho warrior found Somo freedom for his stcol's rownrd.
