by the Legislature of that btate to euc

S. Benate, and John Z. George was elect

succeed Bruce, the colored Senator from
that Strvte. Both are men of ability j
and high personal character, but having j
been identified with the "Lost Cause,"
the loyal yell about confederate briga- j

uny of his big crowd around last week in
-any pa ft- cf the State; at least not at

The rhiladelphia Record Almanac

-i very neat production and shows com
mendable care in its preparation. It
contains a .large number of well execu- !
icd engravings representing pcenes in j
the national history of the country, and t
i n-pleto with historical facts, political
statistics, and otf er useful information.
The litcord claims an average daily cir
culation cf over 64,000 copies, and ior
one cent, its price per copf. or S3 n y'eari
furnishes more news and general infor
mation than any other paper in the
United State. Its editorial department

its erects as a newspajer the liccord

It alTords us pleasure to once more
remark that away down east, in the
State of Maine, peace still continues to
lrevail, and that her two Governors and
two Legislatures are getting along as
well as could be expected. Towards
ihe close of last week, Davis, the Re
publican Governor, was deluded into the
belief that the b'.oody Greenback! and
Dtmo-irats intended marching upon
Augusta and seizing the State capitol.
Galling guns Mere planted around the
building, and all the available military
railed out. The hoax was soon discov
ered, the scare subsided, and order again
reigned alonr the KcnnebeCj On Tues
day evening tbe Supreme Court decided
that the Fusion Legislature was not a
legal body, whereupon Smith, rusiouifrt,
!2clare 1, if reports be true, that he had
got through playing Governor and in-
tended to go home. By the time the

. . tv. .u x.- k i the same theme that engaged Mr. O - .
thrt ah of the present month, in which Conor m hit etter tQ the Newark ciub. ;

.f . V. a anybodv's contrary view of the question; ;
it has received from the Democratic and . J . tllIIM4 mmi-XclT :
Greenback leaders of Maine." What
B'.aino calls a "political tragedy" was
the action of Gov. Garcelon and his
Council in simply enforcing the election
laws of Maine passed by Republican i
Legislatures, not in the way that Be-
publican Governors had'enforced them
that is to say, against Democrats only j
and for the purpose of enabling Repub- j
i licans to reap the benefits of their de-
fects but enforcing them impartially j
. ,, . . ,, .. T. !
against the members of all parties. It

turned out that the Republicans suffer
ed the most, but that was not Governor '
Garcelon s fault, but the fault of the
Republicans themselves who made the
laws. It is a refreshing thing to hear
Blaine declaiming about the "painful
and appalling" features of this Maine
quarrel. Didn't this same trimmer,
Blaine, as well a hid colleague in the
Senate, old Hannibal Hamlin, aid and
assist in every possible way to consum
mate the fraud which reverseda popular
majority for Tilden of over two hundred
and fifty thousand, and
nullified the
' entire vote of two States ? There was
! nothing "painful and appalling," in
Blaine's estimation, in sanctioning such
h gigantic fraud as that when he and
his political friends were to reap the
! lu.it-K.fW t( it- Vn1 tiivl- tTiia "ntnmprl
knight," as Bob Ingersoll styled him, is
pained and appalled because a Demo
cratic Governor and his Greenback
; Council enforced the Maine election
j laws enacted at various times by Repub
: lican Legislatures. Hypocrisy certainly
t could not put on a more brazen front.
From the action last week of quite a
j large number of Republican County
I Committees, in various parts of the
State, in electing delegates to Don
( Cameron's third term State Convention,
which will meet at Harnburg next
Wednesday, we are afraid that the tail
will wag the dog, and not the clog the
tail ; or, in other words, that the con
vention will run Cameron instead of
Cameron running the couveniton. A
spirit of rebellion against a third term
of Grantism has developed itself with ;
remarkable unanimity in the Republican j
household from the Delaware to the ;
Ohio, and from Bradford county in the !
North to the Maryland lino. The Re- '
pubUcans almost everywhere in the '
State have instructed, and are still in- j
strict big, their delegates to the cor.ven- 1
ti to vote for Blaine as their ear.di- j
c-(te for I 'reside-lit, snd it looks now us j
ifthy would control the convention. ,
If this should prove to be the result.
f'ameronism in this State will at last
!;":ae found a grave from which there
can be no resurrection. Cameron's
(Grant balloon went up btautifully at
j Uii, ,)r?irinin7 carrying, as wru then
aniKuiiiced and believed, tho forty-six
delegates from Philadelphia, but its
ballast has of late csfajed so rapidly
that it will rrobablv pass off into the
regions of space and never again be
heard of. We are sorry for the political
wrecking of the son of Simon and for
tho ''deep damnation" of Grant's sud
den taking off as a candidate by the
Uhtine men of this Slate, but cannot
fail to recognize thfact that Cameron's
discomfiture at Ilarrisburg next Wed-
ncday, if it takes place, will sound
G rant's iolitical death-knell. We had
other and quite different hopes, but
such, aro the glorious unee rtair.ties of
political life. A slice of bread is apt to
fall upon the buttered side.

As an antidote to the gloomy prophe- ;
of Charles CTOonor.
reeentlv nub- 1
recently puo-
to meet the ioints raised by Mr. O "Con
or, and presents forcible reasons why
his pessimist view of the situation should
not ?ain popular prevalence. Great re
forms alwavs move slowly, and though
we gee the uprooting of governmental
evils and political wrongs with snail-like
sometimes crab-1 ike pace, toward the
victory of popular liberty, if we do but
look back to the great advance made in
our position within a dozen years it wili
be seen that the experience or the past
has a hopeful lesson for the future. The ;
clouds have been as dark and the situa- ;
. . a ivrr r,i.
tion as threatening as Mr. O'Conor pic-
, tured. but he does not seem to have seen
the rifts of light that have since broken
through and dispersed the gloom where
' Judge Black s clearer eye now reaches,
i Up to the time that his own magnificent
j protest was heard in the supreme court
in the Mil liken case, that the remnant
: of civil liberty left us should be spared
. by the judicatory into whose hands was
, then committed the destiny of the na
j tion, there had been steady progress, un-
stayed by law. towards a subversion of
' our system. That case and his victory

i liberty, and the overthrow of the infa
mous system of military commissions.
I was the vernal equinox in our history.
The brooks were not unlocked from the
i ice fetters at once, nor the March winds
j temiTed, nor did the trees all of a hud
i den burst into bloom and the birds set
to singinsr. But the time was at hand
when a change was sue to come and
; too events were happening that were
I big with the promise of better things.
! Mark the progress that Democracy
' has mail since the time when Judge
j Black says the outlook for t lie republic
; was more hopeless than that of Vrome
; theus. State after State has been wrest-
ed from Republican control until the
I opposition are not left in charge of more
than half of thein, and only intestine
troubles can defeat the Democrat ic nomi
nee for President. The lobby has bee n
almost utterly scourged from the capi

the winds, and. whatever the theory
of the Republicans, surely we have com- :
pelled them to decanter practices. i
It remains for the Democracy to fin-.
i.sli the work so auspiciously ben, and ;
when the contest iooJL-. nopeleos and ra- ;
vens of in omen croak despair, it is well ;
f-.f the voices of men who have seen the j
darker days, like Judge Black, and led ;
us up from them, to remind the falter- I
ing of how far we have already come j
from Kgypt on the way to the promised i
land.
Grant has been in Havana for about ;
ten days and; on Thursday night of last ;
week was pretty well shaken by an i
earthquake, which paid its respe-ct3 to j
that city as well as to Cuba gene-rally.
The shaking up at Havana was a very !
trifling affair, however, when compared
with t lse political earthquake that!
Blaine's friends got up in this State last !
week, which has shaken Grant com-
pletely out of his boot Its effects for !
a few days were very shocking upon the '
third tcim crowd, and even yet its miit-
t ring thu.'iders can be heard in certain i
1
its of the State. Grant will leave ,
Havana ab-.i:t the 12th ef February fir I
Vera Cruz, and from there intends go- '
ing to the city ef Mexico. His son )
Fred accompanies li im. as he did all
l ist sumtntr, when Tom Kiaham's ,
"greatest man the Almighty ever made."'
visited Southern Furope and Asia. '.
Grant's son is an officer in the army,
and it would be interesting to know i
whether there is any truth in the state
ment t hat he never failed to draw h is j
pay while traveling in foreign countries. ;
Ho played that game for some time
after he left West Point and was en- j
gaged with John Sherman's nephew in j
the banking business in Washington, f
and also acting as master of ceremonies ;
at the White House, and the presuinp- j
tion is that he continues to do so. The j
New York Sun could shed a great deal
of light on this subject. '
The Church of St. Peter, Hat ton
Garden, London, nu the luth inst., had
been decorated for the. festivals of Christ
mas and the Epiphany, and t lie 10 o'
clock Mass wa3 leing celebrated by
Father Packanowski, a Polish priest.
Just at the elevation of the Host a pis
ted shot was fired at the priest by a man
in the body of the church and the bullet
lodged in the altar. The acolyte who
wa:: serving M is immediately fled into
the sacristy and locked the door b hind
him, so the pri si ; f.;oiu was un
able to enter. Ib-re his assailant tired
two more shots. Tho priest then sought
refuge by g--ing b -hind the abar, where
lie was foiiowed by the wo'dd-be-mur-derer,
and succeeded in getting round
to the front of the church .'id making
hisescp.pt. Two more shots were fired
after him, one of them piercing the back
of a chair. The man ru-hed to the
back of the a'tar and seizing some of the
massive candlesticks dashed them to the
ground, breaking them i'lio fragments
and doing othe damage which will take
JL" 1,000 to replace. Hie He v. Henry

her, and then marrying Miss lily. The
plan was partially successful, for he
married Mrs. Myers, and then destroyed
her by iison; but he had talked to Miss

resulted in his condemnation to the gal

further effort to harm him, and the kit
tens, then full grown, njoyed an old

the rat is let out and runs about the room,
