The London Times says it-is time for the .English government to address a vigorous remonstrance to the United States government against allowing public meetings to be held in this country by dynamiters, and the advocacy of dynamite as a means of wariarein American journals. Only the mother day our English friends gave us a ship, and we thought those relations between the two governments, which are sometimes called fraternal and reciprocal, were to be sacredly mainstained. But now we are to receive a strong remonstrance. Send it along and we will give it the same courteous reception shown to a polite request recently sentto England, which, while it was in a measure for the relief of an assassin, was none the less deserving of better consideration than it was awarded, especially by a government which feels so kindly toward our own as to present us with a ship. Perhaps, however, we ought to beware of the
English when they come bearing gifts.
Gladstone once said Ireland would never gain any concessions from the English government, except through terrorism, and he certainly knows the English people and their style of governing as well as any man living. Recent events events seem to bear out the truth of the remark. El Mahdi obtained no consideration until Hicks Pasha and his command were wiped from the face of the earth. Then a peace commissioner, Gordon, was sent out. He has offered to make El Mahdi sultan of Karfodan, remit taxes, and promises there will be no interference with slavery. The dynamiters, apparently taking the cue from this instancy of the efficacy of violent measures in treating with the English government, and no doubt appreciating the opportunity for making themselves the more troublesome by reason of the Egyptian war occupying the attention of the government, have resumed operations. England, however, would rather yield to ten El Mahdi's than once to the Irish people.
The information that the product of the American hog will not hurt anyone in Germany or France who eats it, having been officially obtained, the question now arises, what are we going to do about it? Retaliation is about the only couise open. Inasmuch as we are possessed of far stronger, reasons for excluding the stuff sent here from Germany and France and called by courtesy wine, than those countries have been able to produce for excluding our pork, why not adopt that policy It is a question of policy, considered principally in the light of commercial interests. Evidently we can not accomplish anything by mild protests and pleadings for fair treatment. Therefore retaliation will work to a double purpose. It .. will make those countries as itiad as they have made us, and that is no small consideration, and then it will keep out of the country a vast quantity of vile wine, the absence of which
will be beneficial in a sanitary point of view besides aiding the manufacturers of American wines. Let us retaliate.
Dana of the Sun, who is the shrewdest politician in the democratic party, in an interview in the New York Herald hints the nomination of Tilden, and of course, the tail of the 1876 ticket. He says it is surprising how democrats in all parts of the country are insisting upon the old ticket. The rumpus about the tariff has strengthened this feeling, says Mr. Dana, and it is with a sort of disgust for the men who have put the party in such a plight over the question that the people are calling for Uncle Sammy. If the old man was renominated the tariff question would be "pushed into the obscurity proper to theoretical abstractions." In fact Mr. Dana now thinks that the convention "will nominate Tilden and then wait for his reply before proceeding any further." We thought we had fully appreciated the sorry state of the party but this is even worse than we suspected* The party weary, disgusted and disheartened, is to throw away all pretentions of having any principles and say to an old schemer, tottering on the edge of the grave: "We know you are cunning and sly take us and do what you please with us. And Sammy will whisper "Reform."

Chairman Morrison speaking of his purpose regarding tariff legislation says: "I want to reduce tariff taxation. I am not caring much about the revenues. They can take care of themselves and I do not regard it as a calamity that the public debt is being reduced."
This is frank, at least. The object— and it is the same which lurks behind the efforts of our Democratic lriends who are advocating a reduction ©f the tariff no matter how they use words to cover their views—is to remove the protection afforded by the present tariff to home industries. Mr. Morrison made the above declaration of his principles when asked as to the result of several conferences held by the leading men in his party at Washing ton. These conferences were to agree upon a bill which could be reported from the ways and means committee with a reasonable prospect of combining the vote of the Democrat .- majority in the house. There MV protection Democrats, a few luo. incidental" protectionists, more still for "reveue only" and quite a number of avowed free trade men in the ranks.
The chief object of all at present is to elect a president. None yet clings to his own convictions. There may be some who went to Washington last fall with settled views as to tariff legislation, but the fever that has consumed the party as an organized body for these many years soon weakens the moral courage of the average Demo' crat and he sinks his purpose of legislating for the good of the people that the party may catch some puff of wind that will carry it into power.
Mr. Morrison, is of all things, a blunt man. He, of course, is filled with the ambition that besets every other mem ber of his party who has risen to more than local importance but his abiding purpose regarding the tariff leads him to make such frank admissions as the one quoted above. He does not care for the revenue. He wants protection removed. That is the sum total of the intention of his party, and so it will be even should it in national convention declare

The Democratic house has declined up to this time to pass the resolution appropriating money for the expense of the senate committee investigating the Danville riot, and the work of the committee has-been suspended. When the investigation of the Dailville riot and the Copiah county murders was ordered, the Democrats in the senate treated the matter with an affected air of disdain, and protested that the Republicans were welcome to inquire into the acts of the Democracy in thesouth. The disclosures so far made have not, however, borne out the predictions that nothing which could reflect upon the party would be found, and we are not surprised that the house is neglecting to provide for the expense of further investigations. There has been no pretense of a defense offered, except that the "black rascals" at Danville were "impudent." There is no room for the old plea, and it used to carry considerable weight with thinking people in the north, that the evils complained were brought aboutny the presence of the unscrupulous carpet-bagger. That individulal, who no doubt suffered severely for his temerity in adventuring into the south, is no longer an important factor in the political campaigns in that section. The fhen who to-day are opposing bourbon rule are southern born and bred and they are the ones who, like Matthews, are killed for voting the Republican ticket. All evidence obtained is from those Whose records in the confederacy, either in the civil or military branch of that socalled government, is quite as good as the most ardent supporters of the late cause. In fact the best evidence to an unprejudiced mind is obtained from the bourbons themselves. The following is a fair sample of it and is from evidence taken in the Copiab affair: 'Robinson said he was the coroner when Matthews was urdered. He held no inquest. T. P. Ware asked him to have one, but he thought it was not necessary. Asked bow he knew who killed Matthews, he replied: I asked Wheeler, and he told me there was no use in putting the county to the expense of summoning a jury. He killed Matthews, and I might put it so In my verdict. So I did. Dodds and Harris (Democrats), lawyers, said there was no need of an inquiry." "'Don't you generally nave homicides committed to Jail?" was the next question. 'Well, yes but tliere was no concealment. Wheeler admitted he did it,' "'Well, now,' insinuatingly Inquired Mr. Hoar, 'what is the general character of the Democracy of the county T* "The witness had his answer ready: •Quiet and peaceable.'" •y
It is stated that a movement is on foot in Dakota to have the name of Bismarck changed to Lasker.
VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
Xhe Temperance Question in the- Next Campaign In Indiana—.What Will the Republican Party do? :W' To the Editor of the Express.
Sra:—The time when the republican paity of this state will forms its platform for the fall campaign Is fast approaching. There are questions of state policy of but little less iuterest to the public welfare than that of the general'government and among these will be the temperance question. The temperance question, embracing the questions of the constitutional prohibition, local option and licence regulation, should in no sence be a strictly partisan question. Though all Agree that by far the largest active temperance element is in the republican party, yet there is a very large temperance element In the democratic and national parties, which is earnestly demanding that something be done to protect the people from the evils of Intemperance. In fact there Is a very large voting element of the state earnestly demanding by petition and otherwise, reardless of party affiliations, that the legslature shall pass the prohibitory amendment to a direct vote of the people, and the political party that will respect this element, In good faith. In the coming campaign, will be acting the part of wisdom. The Republican party should by no means Ignore the fact that there Is a strong pressure now being made on the part of restless and extreme prohibitionists to form an Independent prohibition party, with a full ticket in the field, this falL I know this element is not of the most staunch and influential element of the temperance people of the state and this clammor for separate party action results from the fact that the'amendment was not submitted to a vote at the last session of the legislature. They seem to think that they were by some party trick or corruption swindled out of the amendments, and they fear It will be so again.
But temperance' Republicans generally believe the party was acting In good faith in the last campaign in adopting a submission plank In their platform, and that It will, in the coming campaign, In equally good faith, declare in favor of the next legislature passing the amendment, the agreeing to and submission of the same by the next succeeding legislature, and that pending tlie passage, agreement' and submission of the amendment, tjte legislature will adopt such laws, in accordance with the present constitution, as will, as far as can be, protect the people from intemperance.
It is not my object now to attempt to prove that the liquor traffic for beverage purposes is an evil, and that It should be abolished. These are self evident propositions, and need no proof. The questions to be answered are how and when shall we get rid of the evil?
The following propositions appear to me to be so plain and Just that every Republican can heartily endorse without any conflict with previous personal or partisan principles. A political organization based wholly on capital, ana. designed to work exclusively in the interest of a class utterly regardless of all other interests is dangerous to the commonwealth and the Liquor League of America is such a political organization, and that its arrogance and dictation in demanding legislation for its sole benefit regardless of the lives and and morals and the material interests of the people, should receive our most unqualified condemnation and reposing implicit confidence#n the virtue and intelligence of the people, we are in favor of the agreement to and the submission of an amendment to the constitution to a direct vote of the people, prohibiting the traffic in intoxicating liquors for beverage purposes, and that pending the passage and submission of such an amendment we are in favor of such legislation consistent with the present constitution, as shall protect, so far as can be done, society against the evils of tippling houses.
In my opinion such a plank in the Republican platform, or something similar to it, would receive„the hearty support of temperance Republicans, and at the same time draw a large support from temperance men of other parties. Such a course will counteract the efforts now being made to form a party with prohibition alone as aprinciple.
It will be observed that this principle makes a direct Issue against the Liquor league as a dangerous political organization. It also makes the direot issue that the people have a right to be heard at the ballot-box on the question of constitutional prohibition. It also asks the passage of such laws as will protect the lives, morals and material interests of the public.
This course would necessarily drive' the opposing party into a direct defence of the liquor league, and to a direct denial of the right of the people to decide this question by a direct vote, or to the adoption of a similar position. No party dare come before the people of this state with a platform in direct oposition to these
treat
principles, as above set forth. I how we will be told by weak-kneed and non-committal politicians that thejtem-

ierance question was the cause o*our detwo years ago, and that we must keep temperance out of politics. But such was not the case. There were other questions that entered into the canvass, esoeccially in Vigo county, causing our defeat, that will be entirely out of the canvass in the coming election. J. D. MITCHEII.

DEFYING A PRIESTS WRATH.
John Geary Buries His Son In a Catholic Cemetery and Is Kxeommunicated. JLafayette Special.
Three weeks ago to-day James Geary shot himself. The coroner's thorough investigation showed that the shooting was accidental, bnt the Rev. E. P. Walters, pastor of St. Mary's Catholic church, denied John Geary, father of the deceased, the privilere of burying the body in consecrated ground. The father insisted, and the priest resorted to the courts. A temporary restraining order was issued against Geary, bnt after a delay of two weeks he succeeded in having it dissolved, and the body was interred, yesterday, and a strong guard placed over it last night. To-aay the priest excommunicated John Geary, his family, and those Catholics who assisted in the burial of the body. He further interdicted the cemetery until the body should be removed. His order declared the graveyard desecrated and polluted. There are threats of friends of the police of disinterring the body, over which Greary keeps a strong guard, and for whicn he said to-night he would fight to the bitter end. At a late hour, to-night, a strong force of Greary's friends patrol the cemetery. A majority of the Catholics are against the priest. '-..J.,
A Somewhat Disconnected Story, Charleston News and Courier. In North Carolina there is a reptile known as the joint snake. When attacked it flies into pieces, each piece taking care of itself. A darkey attacked one of them the other day, and to his utter amazemet it broke all up, each section jumping off in a different direction. In the course of an houhe returned that way and was utterh amazed again to see it all together except the tail piece. After waiting a few minutes he saw the tail coming up to join the body, taking sharp, quick little jerks. It came nearer and nearer, until within a
few
thiB
wo
inches of
the three-quarter snake, when it gave a sudden jump and hitched on its proper place with a fuss resembling the popping of a cap. The darky knocked it to pieces several times, and each time it caflae together again. He carried his amusement too far, however, in throwing the tail part of the snake across the creek, just to see, he kud, "how long it would take itto catch up but it never caught up. The snake, with its three joints, was carried to the house, where a new tail is beginning to grow to replace the lost one. A gentleman who knows much about
singular species, says ahead

An Ancient Masonic Record. Philadelphia Special. A most important original Masonic record has been discovered, in the library of the Historical Society of Pennsylvania by Clifford P. MacCalla, junior warden of the grand lodge of Masons of Pennsylvania. The relic consists of the original ledger account of the first Masonic lodge organized in this city (St. John's lodge), from June 24, 1731, to June 24, 1738. Among the members of the lodge was Benjamin Franklin, who be came a member, according to the records, in February, 1731. The exact date of Franklin's admission to the order was not known until the discovery of this lodger. It is claimed it is the oldest Masonic lodge book in America, and one of the oldett in the world. It was presented to the Historical society by George T. Ingham, of Salem, N. J., on November 8, 1880. Mr. Ingham received the volume from a descendant of David Hall, who was the ps rtner of Benjamin Franklin in the printing and publishing business. Its great value consists in its corroborating all that has been claimed and proved in behalf of Philadelphia as being the "mother city of Masonry in America."
