In tlie Heuse yesterday, upon n motion te suspend the rules and pnss the bill providing for restoring the old rate of duty en raw wool, Mr. Moirlsen and Mr. Randall were equally act! vp, the reports tell us, In drumming up the Dem ecrats te vote for adjournment rather than te proceed te the consideration of the mntn preposition. This does net Imply a disposition todedgo the question of tariff reduction, nor that Mr. Morri son nnd Mr. llandall are In nccerd upon this phase of the economic issite which divides Congress and belh parties. But as Mr. Morrison has a comprehensive tariff bill elaborated, as Mr. HamUll Is opposed te tariff legislation at this ses- Blen of Congress, and as Mr. Converse's proposed bill for restoring the former duties en raw wools, does net provide for making corresponding changes in the remainder of the wool schedule, and would disarrange the cntlie schedule, there were manifest reasons why it was net practicable, te consider it yesterday, separately and disconnected from the main subject of which It is only one phase. The same reasons substantially, which deprived the vote taken yesterday, of Blgnilicance en the main issue, it new seems probable, will prevent the split In the Democratic ranks in Congress, which has been se frequently foretold during the last few days, if it does net, indeed, altogether prevent tariff legislation this winter. There are some eutgivings that a Democratic caucus will be called, te affirm the Morrison bill nnd te read out of the party all these who ate net willing te support it. Tiiis kind of talk is ridl culeus. There is no issue involved in the Morrison bill, upon which the Deme cratie party has made such nnauthoil nnautheil tatlve deliverance that it is te be made the touchstone of party fealty. Even assuming that the doctrine of "tariff for revenue only " Is the true party faith, the Morrison hill does net embody that doctrine, at all ; it Is a "protective " tariff as essentially as the present sched ule, differing from it in detail and net in principle It is idle te say that an opin ion as te the amount of duty te be laid upon any particular article Imported Is te determine, whether a man Is a Deme crat or net. Greater questions thau the tariff notably the financial measures of the past twenty years have caused wider differences of opinion than new exist among Domecrata ever the tariff sohedule ; and still the party has survived and has net felt called uihjii te expel leaders and state organizations who were right upon the fundamental principles. Mr. Ilurd and some ethers delight te inform the public that there is a national convention approaching, which will lay down the law and determiue the stntus of members of the party; but, with the ex perience of lSbO in mind, as the time for the national convention approaches, nothing becomes clearer than that that body will net adept anj platform at the behest of the Deme er.its of Iowa and Kansas which will im peril the chances of the party in Indiana, UUie, Virginia, Pennsylvania, New Jer H9y,Xew Yerk and Connecticut, where the presidential battle is te be fought. The Democracy of these states are in aubjtautal ugreeuient ujkhi the Ohie plank of 1S83 ; it deals with principles, ' net details. Ne national platform has ever yet embraced a tariff schedule aud no essential party principle ever gets down te that.any mere then it would (lx the price of a liquor liceusa or the rate of tobacco tax. Such details are for individual congressmen, In their indl vidual capacity and as local representa tlves.te deal with; and if the Democratic members cannot all agree upon them they can disagree without disrupting the party. m mm Died a Natural Death. It is new considered a certainty that the Committee of One Hundred in Philadelphia will disband. The defeat of Mr. Page last year aud the election of the straight ring Republican nominees in February have discouraged the mem bers of the commutce aud convinced them that further attemp's ou their part te regulate the politics of t hat city will be ineffective. During the existeuce of this body it did some geed work , its members labored unselfishly and spent their money liberally nnd patriotically, and In the ex ample of interesting themselves In politics without making themselves candidates for effice, they commanded the emula tion of geed citizens of all parties. Tli.it their inlluence should have come te an early end seems te be in accordance with the experience of nil third party move "ments in American politics; and se long as the people of municipalities will, In the main, divide In local politics en the bread llne3 of national par tlsanshlp, independent movements will be effectlve only for temporary pur poses. These they serve well, but when they have been met and answered the committees nnd reform associations disband and wait another opportunity te reappear In auether form. The Commit tee of One Hundred was a partisan organization composed entirely of Ite publlcans, the first object of which was te reform Its own party within its own lines, nnd only wheu that failed did It seek ether alllllatlens. When Us power te accomplish Republican reform was broken and the Democrats were wtllinu te concede- se much te the reform aentl ment as te make nominations that Invited and commanded its support, the lines between the Demecracy and the Committee of Oue Hundred were broken down, and the timid partisans who are for reform only when it elects Republi cans, feared te fellow where It led. There is ene way that the Democrats of Philadelphia can profit inore by the dls dls baudmeut of the commlttee than they ever obtained advantage from its exist once ; that is by exercising enru te nom nem nom luale candidates who will stand for what the committee strove after. The number .of independent voters in muulelpal affairs la increasing; the party wli'c'i deserves them will get them oventually, without any special organization or agreement between them ; tlie Commit tee of One Hundred may die, but the spirit of reform will survive, and the Philadelphia Democracy will be stupidly criminal if they de net adept and ueur tsh It and let It guide them in their future organization aud nominations. PuusiDKKT AiiTiitMl lias made the net uncommon but rarely successful at tempt te ride two horses in his final announcement of the appointment te the Phlladel phla Tedcral etllces. He has re appointed Kerns, as marshal, whom nobody objected te; he has reappointed Valontiue as U. S. district attorney, against whom there really never was any determined opposition, Mr. Quay only trifling with another name as iv foil te his serious purpesss te cipture the patrenage of the pansien etllsa for e 10 of lis favorites, with whom he sought todlsplace the present incumbent, Gen. Slckel, who Is net enough of a practical politician te suit Quay. Over thl3 place the real cmtest has been waged, Cen gressmen Kelley, Harmer aud O'Neill being pitted against Quay ; and the latter has shown his Indisputably greater Inlluence at the WhLe Hunts. It is te bi presumed tlu' the president is te have adequate re turn in Pennsylvania supoert of his renomlnatien ; this is the Pennsylvania way. Kelley, and even Senater Mitchell, threaten obstinate opposition te the con Urination, and if Mitchell were n stronger man than he is he might rally the ntiti ntiti administratien forces in the Senate te the test of strength that would severely try them, and which would involve con sequences as wide reaching as these of the Garfield-Conkling quarrel. The moral .of It all is that the most funda mental principle of the party in power still remains the spoils sy stem Tun bltiug winds of Mareh are net cold enough te chill the baeeballlst's enthusi asm. Avcnoine outraged or unrequited leve with a pistol is a practice that should be mere, honored in the breach thau iu the obscrvauce.

The assertion may scorn toiiewhat paradoxical but It is nevertheless true, that there is inore powder turned Iu times of peace, than in time- et war. Tin build ing of the Hoesao tunnel required mero powder than the war of tlie rebellion As civilization advances and the tuilleniuui of universal peace among nations draws nearer, powder will grew less and less sug geative of a life destroying agent.
