The toilsome march is ended. The tired feet are at rest. The weary hands are (bided Upon the tranquil breast. The son, so long o'erclouded, Kinks brightly in the west. And we who loved her trnly, ' Can find nocanse to weep. That after all life's trials So calmly she should sleep As if around ber pillow The angels guard did keep. For her Is no more sorrow, Kor her is no more pain, No weary, hopeless waiting,. Nor watching all In vain ; But heaven's endless glory A saint's Immortal gain. Ma. Hkxbt Faiwixl, 1 f.m Mas.

So concluded till morn 'neath a strange roof to dwell, . And retired, after copious feeding. He unrobed, and the pillows adjusted with care. Ensconced himself snug 'neath the bed clothes. And indulged in sweet slumber, after a short prayer. That nothing happen to mar his repose. What sound breaks his slumbers ! what forms meets his view! As thus blankly he gazes around him. He sees the good landlord, and gentlemen Who with martial bearing surround him; MUood sir," spoke the foreman, "You'r a stranger, some how. And the likes o' such never here venter. For though public our house, we never allow But the good and the worthy to enter. We know not your calling, perhaps not your right name, Henceforth for your sapper and lodging We'll confiscate your clothes, that you play us no game. Or the morrow's payment be dodging." The stranger assented, with dubious smile; No further they carried their probing. So be watched them depart, with keen anj guish the while. That topereat had been his unrobing. And again courted slumber to banish bis But in Tain, though dreams sought bis pillow. They were not refreshing, and brought no repose-Thus be lay like a wind'shaken willow; ' Now tost lor a moment, then widely awake. As his dreams brought him rest, or false warning, Ob, gladly he hailed tbe soft, grayish streak Of light, that announced the morning. And lightly he sprang from his couch of un rest, The visions of night still around him. He looked first east and then looked west. To fathom thegloon that bad bound him ; And then be bethought of a morning stroll, . That bis senses no farther should scatter. When a friendly glass on theopposite wall Suggested what was the matter. Three wearisome hoars wound their length around. Ere the good landlord thought to be stir ing, . . - While his worthy guest learned the lesson profound. That at fate there is no nse demurring; How be managed the tedious hours to be guile. Let only the walls give answer, ' 1 But Imagine yourself In his place the while, And keep back the oaths, if you can sir. The four blank walls, could they speak, I wot. I fTbey would tell the tale o'er and o'er, sirs. That the over-sound rating the landlord got. Was rehearsed to them before, sirs. My patient friends, should it serve yon well, Give heed at my moral at parting. Whenever you stop at the Union Hotel, . Keep well in your clothes at the starting. Whene'r youjput op at the tavern and sap. Think of the stranger's fate so appalling. Nor seek for repose till you firetshall disclose Whence you came from, your age, and your calling. . Tie e'er the best way, I will here pause to say. Would yoa keep aloof from all danger, Should you chance to dwell in the Union Ho tel, To announce that you are no stranger. KINGSVILLE. OUR NEW YORK LETTER. The Election—Wednesday Night Still Uncertain—Anticipations of Trouble —Other Matters. THE ELECTION. Nothing is talked of or heard of in the city, bat tbe election. It passed .off here very quietly, there being but few fights, and no rioting whatever. The night before the election, there tvas a little trouble in Desbrosses Street, in which one man was killed and two or three wounded. A color ed club from Jersey City hd participated in a Republican parade, and were on their way home. , Now, it has been the rule in this city, that an Irishman had & perfect right to beat and maltreat a negro, when ever and wherever he chose, and it hss- never been expected that the Ethiopian would resist. Consequently a party of Irish Democrats assaulted these negroes with a shower of brickbats and stones, and made the usual rush upon them. They were as tonished. The negroes most of them had served in the army drew np in order, and poured a volley into their ranks from re volvers, and then charged upon them with knives. This was so complete a reversal of all rule and precedent, that the Irishmen did not understand it. To kill nagur." was good sport, but to have a 1'nagur" kill them was not so amusing. Such of them as were able fled ingloriously, and the negroes proceeded very quietly on their way. The:, "nigger" fa getting to have rights which red-nosed men are bound to respect. They were at the polls all day Tuesday and voted the game as other peo ple, much to the disgust of the thousands of naturalized Irish who hold this city in their hands. . , , , , ,. Tuesday night was an eventful night in this city. A drenching .rain that had been falling all day continued all the night. Bat it had no effect upon the eager and ex cited populace. The headquarters ot the National Republican Committee were at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, and as early as eren o'clock -the -streets in the vicinity were crowded with an excited mass of peo ple, awaiting news of the result. . Twenty third street, Fifth avenue, and the street adjacent were packed with a throng, with and without umbrellas, all eager to hear the retum and know who was to be tht next President. The doors of the oqrnmit' tea rOom were guarded by policemen to keep ant tbe impatient throng who had money, ot wbftt was more, opinions, staked npon the result, s At eight o'clock the news commenced coming in. It was all one way. New York oity has gone Democratic by majorities which no one anticipated, and the Repub licans looked blue, 'and many of them went home feeling that chaos had oome again, and that there was no hope for anything in this world. Following this came the re turns from Indiana, showing a complete and overwhelming Democratic victory in that State, and there was another exodus ot Republicans. ' Then I )eft the Fifth Avenue Hotel and went down to Tammany Hall and Irving Hall, the headqnaiters of the Democracy. The scene was quite different. All was jubilation and joy. There was more drunk enness, more unreasoning, unmeaning jubi lation than I ever saw before or ever want to see again. Men who expect places under Tilden, men who have promises of positions in the event of a Democratic success, were reeling drunk in the hope of the victory which they believed they had achieved, and they did not conceal their exultation. The rum-mills in the vicinity were packed with them, and the entire territory, was made as complete a pandemonium as the most malicious devil that MUtou ever paint ed could have desired. And so through the whole of Tuesday night. The Democratic quarters of the city were awake and, drunk. Wednesday morning a change came over the splrrt-ofjheir dreams. New York had gone Democratic, so had Indiana, but they woke up to the realization of the fact that to elect Tilden the Southern States -were necessary, and there were grave doubts as to whether he had got them all. Florida looked badly for them South Carolina was in doubt, North Carolina was ditto, and Louisiana looked certain for Hayes. The Democracy suddenly got sober and began to behave itself. The exultation of the drunken night before settled down into the sobriety of a doubt. It was not impossible that Hayes was elected after all, and pos sibly they had been counting chickens be fore they were hatched. WEDNESDAY NIGHT STILL UNCERTAIN. Ten thousand men who had been pro mised positions under Tilden began to look blue. The news dime that Florida had gone for Hayes, and that Louisiana and South Carolina had gone likewise. Evident ly they had rejoiced before their time. Thursday morning, Florida, South Caro lina, Louisiana Hayes! Hayes, 185 votes just enough to elect. Democracy blue, and a little animation observable among repub licans. But the bets! Immediately the Democratic papers commenced "'ssuing false bulletins. Reports came in all day that t hese States had gone for Tilden, and crowds of people thronged about the various news paper offices to see the latest. And in the pool-rooms up-town, the old gamblers who had put their money upon Tilden, took ad vantage of these tying bulletins they were displayed in their interest to quietly hedge by having others bet upon Tilden, While they, by the help of other outside friends, were quietly making themselves good by placing their money on Hayes. Whatever may be the result, and at this writing it is impossible to say, this is what the Demo cratic gamblers are doing. ANTICIPATION OF TROUBLE. The Democracy have already forshadow ed their purpose. In the event of Hayes election, they intend to claim that it was effected by fraud, and to dispute it. The Herald this morning gave the keynote of their purpose in prognosticating a civil war if the election shall be decided by a single vote. The Democracy of New York, backed up by the solid South, intend, if the elec tion is decided for Hayes by a majority of one or two States, to put in a claim of fraud and dispute it. That this is their purpose is evident-from the expressions that have been made on the streets and in their news papers, whenever the returns indicated the success of the Republican ticket. Desper ate men can make trouble, but it is difficult to see what they can do when the Govern ment happens to be in tbe hands of the conservative class of the people', whose only interest is in favor of law and order and opposed to the Mexicanizing process of de ciding elections by revolutionary methods. If this is attempted it will come to an igno minious end. The United States is not Mexico, and Mexican processes will not have support. If Hayes is elected he will be inaugurated, and woe be to the faction that stands in the way. OTHER MATTERS. There is no use of writing of other mat ters, for there is nothing but the election thought of or spoken of. Busine?s is en tirely suspended, and nothing is thought of or talked of but the election. When that is over I will try to write you something of general interest. Just now the city is a buzzing mass of enquirers after election PIETRO. Apples. How sorrowful to think the old fashioned "apple cut" is now falling into desuetude! At least, it must be a primative place in deed where it is now kept up, or can be en joyed as of old. It cannot breath the at mosphere of the electric telegraph, and its "news" was somewhat differently collected and sent out. It was a nictnre worthy the genious and fidelity of a DtiU-h painter; but 1 aouot 11 any artist nas ever painieu it. There sat the hired man. with his coat off, astride the chair and apple parer, forking in the fruit, which he turned swiftly around witb'his right hand, while holding the knife on his left. The scalpea ana aenua A ,triDles usually fell into an ancient wash- f.nh and the boys and pirls, or old and young together, sat in circle, quartering and eon'ng them in piepans or in wooden bowls. After the work was all ended, and a barrel or .more had been prepared to dry, t.hfl tram a; the frolic, and the merriment. began. While the elders were present, the party was a trifle more sober, and "i.ip took the place or iun. it was on one 01 ine occasions, 01 which Mr. uurrougn speaks, "where so many things were cut and dried besides aDDles." Strangely stimulating is the fruit! The activity it gives to the blood is fairly conta gious. I suspect a good many of the shrewd sayings ot our wise forefathers, which survive orally in every neighborhood, owe their spur and sparkle to the juicy ap ple, or the juice which came from it, which was the. omnipresent drink. I have a young lady friend who always beats me at a favorite game after the apples appear, though before they arrive I am occasionally the victor. In the United States there are nearly one million acres devoted to apples. In Pliny's time there were said to be twenty-two va rieties of apples known to the Romans; but we who live to-day have the benefit of over two hundred kinds. - To think that all these diverse varieties, from the king to the gold en sweet, came from the harsh and acrid crab, and are largely the result of patient culture devoted to specific ends, shows what elasticacy lies burned in Nature, and only awaits thegenious of man or the favor of fate. -In England, ' where they have poorer oysters than we have, they also have poorer apples. The fruit requires the al ternation of cool winters and warm sun shine, and draws its elixir and lusciousness from a favoring soil. The result is, Amer ican applet form an immense export trade, and are eagerly sougnt abroad. I am told there is a farmer in Ulster county. New York, who devotes two hundred acres to one kind of apple the Newton pippin. This orchard is picked every year by hand, the fruit is carefully barreled, and the whole crop goes to the English market, wherait brings the highest price. It is said that there is no such a variety as a distinc tively "sweet apple" known in England. Appleton's From the Coal Trade Journal. What We Find in Coal. Prof, William F. Roberts says: "The coal itself, even where it is most abundant, constitutes but an insignificant portion of the whole thickness of the carboniferous strata ot the ancient coal formation. Most of the ooal seams rest upon an under-clay, containing stigmaria, the fossil rootlets of the plant called sigillaria. Professor Gop part examined the coal-fields of Germany, and stated that he detected in a bed of pure coal the remains of plants of every familv, then known to occur, fossil in the coal. I11 some places almost all the plants were ea lamtics, in others ferns. In a cut for a railway in Lancashire, England, iu the dis tance of 100 foet, iix fossil trees were dis covered, standing in vertical position to the dip of the strata, which was fifteen de grees south ; the roots were imbedded in an argillaceous shale underlying a seam of coal about eight inches thick. Beneath the coal seam and around the base of the trees more than a bushel of fossil cones, supposed to lie the fruit of llie lepidoden dron, were gathered. In the carboniferous strata of t'oalbrook Dale, and in other coal fields, these fossi! cones are met with, some of which are five inches long. One of the trees found in the out measured fif teen and a half feet at the base, and seven and a half feet at eleven feet, its discover ed height. In the New Castle, Bristol and other coal fields these vertical stems are called by the miners coal-pipes. These cylindrical casts of fossil ' trees, now form ing solid sandstone, after the coal is mined trora underneath, sometimes slide sutliln ly down and cause fatal accidents. The lofty cliffs known at South Joggins, on the sea-coast of Nova Scotia, afford admirable sections of the coal-bearing strata contain ing fossils of the forests of the carbonifer ous period. Large trunks of trees are seen standing at right angles to the dip of the sandstone strata, showing that they were, before this strata was deposited, standing in an upright position. Now they incline at an angle of 150 degrees from the verti cal line. The vertical heights of these cliffs is from 150 to 200 feet. At low tide a fine horizontal section of the strata is exposed to view on the beach. Lyell and Dawson in 1852 made a detailed examination of one portion of the strata 1.400 feet thick, where the coal seams are most frequent, and found evidence of root-bearing soils at sixty-eight different levels, clearly showing sixty-eight fossil forests, ranged one above the other, in this coal field in the above mentioned thickness of strata. TWO TOO MANY. An Old Trapper's Story. BY SEVEN AND NINE. What wur the closest 'scape I ever hed from the Injuns? Wall, young fellar, I reckon there s so many on era it's mighty hard to purticulurize, like. Did I iver tell ye 'bout the time I got away from the Crows, upon the Yallerstun? Didn't? Wal, that wur clost enuf, I kin tell ye. It war nigh onto thirty years ago that I wur trappin' round Chimley Rock, all alone by myself. I wur a mighty ventersum lad them days, and cared nothing at all about the risk as long as beavers wur plenty, and 'pears to me I never see game so thick as 'twur that year. I'd made myself a camp on a little island in the river, and was haying the best of luck; didn't see an Injun or the sign of one for two months, and got careless, like. Wal, in visitin' my traps one afternoon, I seen bar "sign" not a grizzly. I know too much to go arter one ot them fellars with out a kumrade no, this wur a thunderin' big black bar, from his tracks, and I made up my mind to trail him in the mornin'. I started out soon arter sunup, and fol lowed the trail till late in the afternoon, and I lost it in the shingle. 'Twur gittin' late, and I concluded to go back to camp. As near as I could judge i wur about eight miles from camp, but not more'n a mile from the river, for the trail hed run kinder parallel to it. ve see. ihurwur a spnne clost by where I Jeft the trail, and I stop ped to get a drink before starting. I wur jest risiug ui. xroiu tuc water, wueu 1 ueeru a twig snap, and looking up I see five durn ed red niggers a coming right to'ard me, and not more than thirty rod off, either. I lit out of that mighty suddint, you can bet, and of course the minit they seen they wur disktvered they give a yell, and come tear in after me. My jints were a blamed sight more supple them days than they be now, and the way I legged it wasn't slow, I reck on. 1 made lur tne river, imnKing meooe I cud give em the slip and git across, and then I knew I cud fool em , and throw em off the trail among the rocks on that side. When I got down to the river bank 'twur dark, and gitting darker every minit, bein; as thur was a fog risin' from the water. I couldn't hear nothin of the Injuns, and I oegan to think mebbe they'd lost the trail. I hed a notion that they might hev a canoe cached thur, so I kimmenced look- in fur it. I orter known bettern to waste time that way; but I wur then thoughtless, jest like you be now, and I must hev fool ed around hunting for the durned canoe fur mebbe a quarter or an nour. Alltoonct I heel d the niggers coming down the bank. They'd struck the river a little above me. I wur badly skeered, I tell ye, fur thur wur no place to hide, and I knowed well enuff 'twan't no use strikin' back into the timmer. I'm a gone case, thinks I wiped out sure, when jest as I cum to thet konclusion I spied a thundering big log, or rather a bull tree, that hed been brought down by the spring floods, and jest lodged by one eend on the bank, the t'other eend reachin' out into the stream. It 'curred to me that if I could crawl out to the far eend and hug tie bark mighty tight, they codn't be likely to see me, 'specially as -'twas quite dark then, and if they went on down stream a lookin' fur me, I could take the back track and cross a mile or two above, whar I knowed thar wur a ford. Wal, I wa'nt long in gitting out to the far eend of the log, which wur partly un der water, but afloat. I straddled the log, with my legs in the water, and held my rifle acrosst it in front of me, and then bowed myself down and hugged the bark like a possum. Jist as I got settled, and wur a thinking what a durned nice thing it 'ud be if the stick 'ud only float off, down come the redskins to the edge of the bank, and stood thar, within fifty feet of me, a peering round, kinder puzzled like, as if they wur a wondering whar on airth I'd got to. Wal, thinks I, if they diskivver me now, they'll lift my har to a sartainty. They spoke to one another, but I didn't make out what they wur saying, though I know ed eir lingo tollable well. Dreckly one onemsr? a little louder, and my ears wur sl enu5. to ketch the words. H. peared to be the heat buck of the Party' and said to the other h. j tecIose "Where is the canoe - . ,, by; step on the log and find it. t. . One of em handed his gun to .. --alk one. and steoDin? on the loir beeran to v. out to'ard me. Perhaps I didn't hug bark and hold my breath as he stooped down, a'most over me, and kimmenced feelin' fur the canoe. He didn't 'pear to find it quick enuff to suit the fellars on the bank, and another of em jumped onto the log to help him. The jar set the durned thing afloat, and splash it cum right into the river, chucking the two red niggurs into the water. Twan't no time fur laughin', but I wura fit to bast when I seed how the old log throwed em cawallup into the water. Hows ever, they mighty quick got hold of the log again, and in a minit more there wur three of us sitting straddle of it, and a floating down stream with a mighty smart current. That wur a durned purty purdickament, wurn't it, young feller, floating down the Yallerstun straddle ot a log, 'long with two pison-sarpents of Injuns? The fellars on shore, when they fust seed the fix . we wur in, set up a laugh, 'sit they thort it wur a mighty good joke: but 'twarn't no laugh in' matter leastways to me, and my ship mate! 'peared to be of the same opinion. They called to their kurarades on the bank to hurry up and git the canoe and take em off. Meanwhile we had floated twj or three hundred rods down stream, and I wur a sitting straddle of the small eend, jest as quiet as a deer listening tor the bounds, and wondering how I wur goin' to git out of the scrape. All to onct one of the Injuns, in trving to shift his position on the log, rolled the thing partway over, and come durned near spillin me inter the water. In trving to save myself I must a made oonsideralml noise, for when I got fixed again I could hear em mutterin' to each other, and eed that they knowed thur wur somebody pr sumthing onto the log besides themselves. How the Injuns looked I couldn't tell, fur it wur so dark I couldn't see their faces; but they must have been worse skeered than I wur, for I knowed who they wur, but they didn't know who I wur. They kept on jabbering to each other, and at first I thort mebbe they wur goin to quit the float and streak it, but dreckly they stopped talking and began peeping to'ard whar I wur cached, like a cupple of cock-turkeys looking fur worms. Then one of em said : 'Don't you see something?" "Yes," answered the other; "dark lump liear perphas." And then the first speaker called out: "Whq's there?" I hed nothing to say, and I growed small so fast, trving to squeeze myself out of sight that my skin hung as loose' as a Mackinaw blanket oil a lodge Mle. They kept peep in' at me, and fin illy 1 heerd one sayp. "it's no bear it's a man. Look at his head!" Jist about then I wur so mad at myself fur gitting into such a-durned fix that I wished my head wur under the log, or any where else 'cent on my shoulders; but I sot np straight, for I knew they'd seen me, and 1 thort it warn t no use to play possum any longer. W al, when I straightened up. the Imun nearest me calls out again: " w no s there r" lamfu111 'lcre"8ys speaking in their own The minit I opened my meat-trap he laughed and says to the other niggur, "He s a pale face." The reeson he kanwml tw .,iv bekase I cudn't spek thur durned jaw. breaking lmgo zactly rWht. Then h tnm. ed to'ard me agTn and said, . " W hat are you doing there?" "Sitting down straddle ot the small eend," savs I. W hen 1 said this they bust into a n?h. or ruther more like a sort of a chuckle, Sat I warn't in no laughing hamor, just then. Then one of-the niggurs says to his kum rade: "He's a pale face; a lean dog, sleepin' on aiog; we did catch him good, and they both gave tbe war whoop. I tell you, young fellow, it made me feel skeery, for it did seem as if I wur scooped, sure. Then they told the other redskins on shore to get the canoe and be quick. The others ' answered them and ran down the shore, laughing, and trying to find the ca noe. 1 kinder made np my mind that some thing hed got to be done mighty quick, and my dandur began to rise. HJoine here, savs one 01 tne minus on the log, beckoning to me. "Come quick, before the others come. I want your scalp!" W al, when he sed that, I cudn't stand it no longer. My har wan't going to hang in no Injun lodge, not ef I could help it; so I throwed up my rifle, took aim at the red niggur and blazed away. . He arive a veil. jumped up like a buck, and fell splash into the water. As soon as 1 nred the Injuns on the bank screamed out the war whoop, and the other redskin on the log yelled out to em to come quick and bring his gun. I jumped up and crawled to him; he gather ed himself up and stood his ground. The fust thing I knowed he cum down on me all in a heap, breaking an old limb inter a dozen pieces over my head and shoulders lucky for me the limb wur rotten. His blow staggered me for a minit, bat I soon rekivered myself, and catching my rifle with both hands, I give him a side-wipe with the bar 1 that knocked him . off inter the water. As be cum up, I grabbed him by the har, and as he tried to git on the log, I jest held him under water. . Being on the log and he in the river, I ruther had him in a fix, and I jest kept bobbing him under. At first the bubbles come up like I wur filling a bottle with wa ter. Yon know when a bottle is full it won't bubble. WaL I kept on bobbin' his head under till he wouldn't bubble; then I jedged he wur full of water, so I let him go, and he went down to the bottom, and I didn't see no more of him. I was jest trvinsr to load my rifle when I heerd the Injuns push off their canoe, and the splashing of the water as they paddled to'ard me. Twur too late to load, and I knowed I couldn't a killed more'n one of em anyway. An idee kim into my noddle that mayhap I mought fool em again, so 1 shoved my rifle under the log and made it fast with a piece of a lariat I had tor a sling. Then I chucked away my coon-skin cap, and crawling clean to tne eend of the log, eased myself off inter the water, leav ing nothing outer the water 'cept my beatL Thar war a small limb - sticking out from the underside of the log, and I jest kept , . . . 1 , ,1 1 1 j : noil OI it wun doui nauus, auu never Bur red a muscle.

The following we take from the Boston Herald: "I advise no one who is interested in the Presidential election," said Wendell Phil lips the other night, to an audience of about 1,000 in Parker Memorial Hall, "to feel certain who is to be the next President of the United States nntil we nwh the ith day of March. I do not think that there any certainity whatever who will suc ceed Grant in that seat untU the 1st day of March. No matter what the papers may Ti 18 montn or next month, a descision i "0t be reached certainly before the middle of Febuary with anything of a character a man can trust. THANKS TO GRANT. "The first word, it seems to me. that to be uttered to-day, when we may indulge some hope that the Ohio Governor will suc ceed General Grant, the first words to be uttered to-day are the thanks of the nation to General Grant. If the Republic is safe. so that a loyal hand holds the helm for the next four years, we shall owe it to the far sighted statesmanship and fearless patriot ism of the present f resident applause J fearless in facing popular misunderstand ing and misconstruction as he was in facing the enemy's cannon; cautious in never overstepping the law, and prompt to the extreme verge of his constitutional author ity when it was necessary to save tne L nit ed States, there haa been no man iu that chair who has been so willing to take res? possibility as Grant since Andrew Jackson quitted it in taking responsibility promptly and initiating measures that were necea, sary to the salvation ot the Republic, In war his name will stand side by side with that of Andrew Jackson ; every year has added to his laurels, and this year, it he succeeds in what he has undertaken, will shroud his memory with the greenest laurel that any year 01 his life has watered. 1 think he has risen to the level of his duty on . every occasion. He has never been lound wanting when tne hour called, and from the time he took tha responsibility in Lonisana to the time he takes it to-day, his has been one unfaltering coarse of fear less, patriotic willingness, no matter what was the judgment of his fellow-citizens, to do his duty. I take great pleasure in saying that I maintain that the man among all other public men who best understands the significance of the present is the Presi dent of the United States. Every one of his acts which people have misrepresented . will shine in history, and he will aay.e run credit for his statesmanship and comprehension." THE SOUTHERN QUESTION. onsv tion, Mr. Phillips argued that it would not have been possible to rally the North for Hayes but for this vital issue t (he party had worn itself out in interest to as, but this question touched the chords in the hearts of the people of the North. Allud ing to the various political mistakes the Re publican party tolerated, ne said one was the universal right of bolting when any man had an attack of indigestion. But for the single issue that held the party togeth er it would have been in this contest little better than a mob undertaking to meet reg ular troops ron the one nana, the disor ganized, disintegrated, demoralized element of the Republican training school ; on the other, the determined, wejl-drilled, well-fed and well-officered troops that signify tha Democratio party. The Republican party just touches success aud nothing more. The leaders deserve none; they never laid down a method or a corner stone that had in it any power to carry the country. Among these leaders he excepted Blaine, Butler, Boutwell and Morton. They, he claimed, were always in the front rank of the party. Thev saw the dancers menacing it. Thv knew what was needed to bolster it up, but tOey oouia not accompnsn everytning. To my mind, continued Mr. Phillips, the point of departure in the Republican rank is very evident. The same issue is going on to day that went on in 1850 and 1854 in the Whig ranks. It is the same method by which Providence always replaces one par ty with another. Describing the fajl of the Whig party, and the causes that led to it, he proceeded to draw a parellel between it and the Republican party. It has put slave ry under, he said; it has disintegrated the South : it has given you the nation as it stands to-day, to a great extent, and in a large measure ,its work is done. Repre senting the untamable spirit of the South, desp.te its thrashing and the impossibility of compelling it to change its ideas, he compared its growth to our own, and show ed our necessarily similar material charac teristics. As a nation we are firm and un yielding. We pride ourselves upon our strength of will and tenacity of conviction. The South has, in a measure, developed in this respect the same ideas that we have. Do yon suppose, he asked, the Saxon blood of the South had its notions beaten oat of it by Gettysburg and Appomottox?
