Address or the Republicans Cons.'s' ■tonal .Corm/floe. To the Republieans ef the United Stales: The Executive and Legislative Depart. meats of the National Government and two-thirds of the State governments have been committed to your keeping, Seer power carries with it grave responsibilities. The people, as is their right, l hold you to a strict, accountability for the exercise of this great trust. Elections are soon to be held for the National House of Repre sentativeii. These elections will determine the political complexion of the popular branch of Congress. They will, too, de termine the political character of several State governments. And these results will be accepted as the verdict of the peo ple upon the ideas. principles and policies of the Republican party, end upon the Administration. To these measures and character of the National resporuribilities, and to the gravity of these issues, your thoughtful consideration is invoked. In the present juncture it behooves the Republican party not to forget Its origin, nor its history. Amid the difticulties that beset it, and the responsibilities and labor, which the needs of the country In the new and untried condition of affairsimpoees, it should remember that it was born of the nation's necessities, end thus far it has grandly met the exigencies forrhich it was formed. Having lamed Ashittuphantly tivough three great eras of its hbrtory, it is now summoned to enter upon its fourth. Gathering, therefore, inspiration from past successes, it should grapple hopefully, and with unshrinking confidence, with the duties of the present and near future. Recurring to their origin, Republicans will remember, when the land was the theatre of a stern and irrepressible con flict between the demons of slavery and caste and the spirit of liberty and equality, when the slave power held great interests and powerful organizations in its grasp I and ruled the nation with. imperial sway, that the founders of the party instructed by passing events, with oonvictions deep ened and zeal quickened by the teachings of history and of holy writ, and inspired by the deathless words Of the patriots, statesmen, and heroes of °Ur earlier time, rose to the exigencies of the hour, opposed the haughty ambitions, the maddening passions, the cruel prejudices, and the dis organiziug theories of the dominating majority, and, although long overborne by numbers, still struggled on amid jeers, insults, mobs, blows, and leseesinationa, till under the lead of Abraham Lincoln they achieved success and grasped the sceptre of political power. Entering upon its second era, appalling responsibilities at once arose. The slave musters, in the pride and arrogance or power, instantly plunged the nation into the fire and blood of civil war. Rut the Republican party rose with the crisis. It raised money in unstinted measure, or ganized vast armies, created powerful navies, fought bloody battles, crushed the most gigantic rebellion of all recorded hie- tory, and saved a nation's life. It was then, amid the clash of arms, that the publican party saw that slaver i y was the relentless and unappeasable foe of the count y, was the inspiration, the heart and soul of that civil war, and that its death would be the annihilation of the rebel lion, the unity of the RepUblie, and the development of free institutions. Against cowardly fears, selfish instincts, and un reasoning passions and prejudice*, it pm, nouneed the deeps gf that hideous and horrid syetern of human bondage, though it was upheld by the aggregated interest* of three thousand millions of dollars, hedged about by the accumulated pissions and prejudices, prides and ambitions of seven generations, and entrenched within the social, political, and ecclesiastical or ganizations and affiliations of life. By a series of executive and legislative acts it broke the chains and lifted from the depths Of *Ott/hie:id op to the summits of ul!w k ., hood four and a half millions of httple bondmaxi, and stood before the nations' with their riven fetters in one hand and their title deeds to freedom in the other. The war entlei; the rebelliett eubdued, the boadmen emancipated, the iippubliaaa party entered upon. the third era of its eventful histOry.

Por surely they can not fail to see that the Democratic,, party, by its policy during the closing years of its power, and by its blind and unrelent hig opposition to reformatory meastires while out ofpower, even now, as if ataitten by judicial blindness, refusing to accept the constitutional, amendments as lived and , ffnal, has demonstrated its utter inoapa.. city fir such a trust ' Accustomed to success even against fearful odds, and underrating perhaps the intrinsic difficulties of the pending issues, many 'Republicans looked to General Grant's Administration with high-raised expectations Ofcchnie, they have been impatient, and not always sat tsthict w 4 zesalta, Bat while these expectations her Ra¢ been fully realized in the action of either the President or of Congress, much has been achieved; enouglr, at any' • rate, to satisfy them that the difficult prob lems will be wrought ont and the OM for results immaaplisbed. • General Grant mune into office pledged to maintain inviolate the publiclaith, 're.duce the national debt.,, dizidaisti taxation, tittliOate the wormier, ieform ithuies in the civil , and Military service t and own_ Seiti odder In the States lately in rebellion.

Great inter ests and powerful combinations sought to so reconstruct the South as to place the power in the hands of the late slavehold ing class, and leave the helpless freedmen in the abject condition of practical serf.. dom. Seldom in history has there been imposed upon any body of men a work of greater magnitude or difficulty. The Re publicans might have shrunk from and avoided it. They were sorely tempted to do so. But they resisted the temptation of official power and patronage, the threats of Executive dictation, and all other acl verse influences, and with sublime fidelity and courage addressed themselves to the • herculean task. To aid in : reorganizing disordered' in dustries, caring for, protecting, and in structing the emancipated bondmen in the new duties of their charged condition, the Republicans established the Freedmen's Bureau, which, by the wise expenditure of few million of dollars, did an incalculable work for order, peace, and the rehabilita- tion of Southern society. To reconstruct rebellions 6tates on the solid basis of equal rights, they gave. suffrage to the freedmen in the reconstruction measures. To secure citizenship and civil rights to a wronged and hated race, they proposed and adopt ed the fourteenth amendment, and enact ed the bill of civil rights. To establish by irreversible guarantees equal political rights and privileges, they adopted the fifteenth amendment, and as a crowning act for freedom they provided by law for' the enforcement of those amendments thus newly enshrined within the Constitution. Thus the Republicans, against the sternest opposition, against misrepresentation, against appalling obstacles, have strug gled on until the rebel States, reconstruct ed on the basis of impartial liberty, have been restored, and the sublime doctrine of the Declaration of Independence made assured and practical ,xealities. In the progress of the ages it has been given to few, in any form or by any modes, to achieve a work so vast, so grand, so' bent.- Relent, so sure, to be reconled by history, and applauded and remembered by coin in&geneTations. acheived this grand work, hav ing passed through these three eras of its history, the Republicn party,. entering on its fourth era, was summoned to deal with questions relating to the national debt, the currency, finances, and taxation, to reforms in the military, naval, and In dian service, and whatever remaining burdens and legacies were left by the war. Concerning these questions there are ap parent diversities of interest and real differences of opinion. The solutions of of them are embarrassed by grave difficul ties. They require time as well as fman cial skill and .practical statesmanship for their adjustment • Differences of opinion on matters so recondite and complex, in an organization embracing so many men of large intelligen trainedto habits of independent thouat, expression, and modes of actions, are inevitable. They are indeed to be expected aruLdesired, for fnam - stich freedom hf dig* ensainn truth is elicited and proper modes of action are ,deduced. The men, therefore, who stood so firmly while in a minority, amid the denunciations, arrogance, and scorn of power; the men who met the stern exigen ces oi civil war with such heroic courage, who assailed the slave power and extirpt ted the skive system; the men who grap pled so successfully with the perplexing and j pregnant issues of reconstruction, lifted helpless freedom up to citizenship, exhaited them to the heights of civil and political rights and privileges, and made the nation free in fact as well as in name, should not shrink from the less moment ous and less embarrassing questions now before them. Patriotism, principle, the continued ex istence, reputation, and renown of the Re publican party, and a due sense of self-re spect and pride of character demand that Republicans now, as in the -past, should have faith in their rapacity to ,rarry for— ward to Completion reforms so auspiciously begun. It came into being as an organi zation of reform and progress, and should be ever ready to accept the living issues of the hour and march abreast with the spirit of the age. Unaided it has fought the battles of reform with constancy and courage. Nor in the work still before it can it hope for aid from those who still :cling to the traditions of the past, pride themselves on their conservatism, and who, during the conflicts of the past twenty years have resisted all reform, and mourn ed over every effete and hateful abuse as subject to taxation, the revennes oft e •fiscal year ending 80th of June, 1870, were nearly four hundred and nine millions of dollars against less than three hundred and seventy-one millions for the year end ing 30th of June, 1889, showing again of nearly thirty-eight millions of dollars. On Vie other hand, the expenses of the fiscal year, 1870, were less than those of 1889 by more than twenty-nine millions'of dollars, thus showing an increased revenue and saving in expenditures of more than sixty seven millions of dollars in the first fiscal year of General Grant's administration. In the last sixteen months of Mr. Johnson's administration, the receipts from customs and internal revenue were less than three hundred and seventy-two millions of dol lars. During the first sixteen months of General Grant's administration they were more than four hundred and sixty-nine millions, showing an increase of nearly ninety-seven milliOns of dollars. Republicans will remember that during the last two years of Mr. Johnson's ad ministration he removed Republicans ap pointed by Mr. Lincoln and others who adhered to the principles of the Republican party, and appointed Democrats where he could do so. The character of these ap pointments and the demoralizing influence which his opinions and tsmduct had upon them were seen in the loss of scores of millions of dollars of revenue in these years. The large gain in the collection is mainly due to the determined and avowed purpose of Gen. Grant to secure an honest administration of the revenue laws and the appointmeut Of Republicans to office earn estly devoted to his economical policy. During the recent session of Congress taxes have been reduced more than $75,- 000,000. The taxes have been -removed from transportation by canals and rail ways, from sales by dealers and. manufac turers. The income tax has been reduced to 21 per cent. on all Meanies above $2,000, and it is to expire at the end of two years. The tax on tea has been reduced from 25 to 15 cents per pound; on coffee from 5 to 3 cents, and the tax on sugar and molasses has been reduced in the aggregate $12,- 000,000 per annum. By this reduction of taxation the industries of the people and the necessaries of life have been relieved of burdens amounting to millions. The funding bill is an important financial measure, which contemplates the saving of interest upon the public debt by the ex change of outstanding six per cent. bonds for those of a lower rate of interest, to the amount of twenty-six Millions and a half a year. 'While a reduction in taxes trans fers the burden of the debt from one year to another, from one generation to another, a reduction in the rate of interest is an actual saving to the country, not only for the present:generation, but for all time. And yet these important and beneficial j financial measures, intended to lighten the public burdens, received little countenance and support from. the Democratic party, whose 'responsibilities for the war, its taxation, are so fearfully large. Not faultless, but high, noble, and glori ous, is the record of the Republican party. HistorY, will note it, and the world will gratefully remember it. In the light of this brief review of its achievements for patriotism, liberty, justice, and humanity, should not Republicans, one and all, cling to their grand organization, rectify its mistakes, correct its errors, and keep it true to its past traditions and in ,harmony with the enlightened and progressive spirit of the age? So doing, may they not perpetuate their power until their benefi cent principles shall become the accepted policy of the nation? HENRY WILSON, Chairman of the Congressional Republi can Committee. A3fES H. PLATT, Secretary THE POWER OF A WORD.-A mother on the green hills of Vermont was holding by the right hand a son, sixteen years old, mad with the love of the sea. And as he stood by the garden gate one morning she said: "Edward, they tell me—for I neve r saw the ocean—that the great temptation of a seamen 's life is drink. Promise me, before you quit your mother's hand, that you.will never drink." "And," said he, (for he told me the story,)—"l gave the promise, and I went the globe over, Cal cutta and the Mediterranean, San Fran cisco and the Cape of Good Hope, the north pole and South: I saw them all in forty.years, and I never saw a glass filled with sparkling liquor that my mother's form by the gate did not rise up before me, and to-day lam innocent of the taste of liquor.; Was not that sweet evidence of the power of a single word?

[Br Ewan'. DEFLECTIONS ON TITTLE-TATTLE AND SCANDAL. Carlyle has very well compared human ity in a large city to "an Egyptian pitcher of tamed vipers, each — striving to get its head above the others." • • Many distinctions have been establish ed, all of them more or less true, but one of the most forcible is probably this, that. the true lady, like the true gentleman, in tuitively shrinks from meddling eolith what is none of her or his business. Lay this to heart, dear young reader; study it as a very practical truth, and no mere theory of a writer; that the amount of vulgarity in any mind is always in exact proportion to the degree in which that mind is oc cupied with the affairs of other people, especially of such people whose affairs are none of our own. Let the thought go with you through life, let it perch like a whispering spirit on the back of your chair at every tea-table; let it be with you ever, that just so far as you or any one engage in the diabolically fascinating amusement of talking about the neighbors, their pri vate affairs, love engagements, hopes and fears; just so far you are vrtnAu—decitl edly, absolutely, and actually mean and vulgar—and all the soap of explanation and vindication in the world will not wash it off. The instant you utter in a matter which is none of your business (especially in a merely personal and private matter) ene word which you would not have spoken of yourself—then just stop. For though your family be of the most illustrious, your fortune and education truly amiable, your "style" the most distiague, still if you are a living chronicle and register—a walking biography of every petty personality whom you meet—then it will go hard with you to make us believe that your mind is great or noble. This world, this life, is so constituted that we cannot avoid the petty, the mean, the personal. At every step it confronts us. But while some minds rejoice and burrow in it, revelling in all gossip, and tattle, and slander, and petty household isms, treating them all as the familiar loves of life, there are here and there some who avoid them; and despite the arguments of the gossipers and petty grubbers, it is al ways true that no persons get on better in this world than those who meddle the least with what does not conern them, or what is of no real importance. Chatter as much as you will on all gossip, that life is all made up of relations to other people, and that we cannot think rat/ilia—it al ways was and always will be a law on earth that the best, ay, and the happiest people were those who had the least unasr iszsa in them, and that the most pitiful mortals are those whose minds never rise above little personal relations. A snob is a jackass or other inferior an imal in a lion's skin. Be the animal a puppy, a swine, a tiger, a wolf; or what you will, he is always a snob. An ill-breci person is one in whom gross selfishness continually raw/Meta itself, and in Ahemfenars.s. or a t.u.regaru or me noel; es tablished for the comfort of others is frequently apparent. A brute is one in whom selfishness has become morbid and unhealthy, whose moral system is diseased, who gratuitously offends, and who is ac tually in his degree lunatic. A vulgar person is on,e whose mind tends naturally rather to the petty and .personal, - than toward that which is refined. The first step away from vulgarity is in letting other people alone; in not knowing the names of every engaged couple, in not re peating scandal to anybody, and in short, in not gobbling up, like a buzzard, all the foul and dirty, "spicy, 'personal items, and "rich revelations" iu which, to their shame be it said, so many men and women revel. We are perfectly aware that this turkey buzzardism or prying cariosity is not set down as a sin—but as there is nothing which causes more real suforeng on the face of the earth—ay, more murders, sui cides and tears—we ttor one are covincerl that if there is anything which is punished in a world to come, it it this very idetical dirty vice.

The wife of the dnznkard thus has a positive remedy against the person who sells her husband liquor, not only for violence she may suffer at the hands of the drunken husband, but for loss of time, and we believe under this law for loss of happiness. The child has the same right of action. • "We doubt if the Legislature could pw a a more sweeping act, and one more calcu lated to put every liquor dealer on his guard. For instance, ifa buiklingbe des troyed by fire, caused by the negligence or carelessness of an employee, when sub negligence or carelessness is the result of intoxication, all the owner of the destroy ed property need do, is to prove in civil courts that a certain liquor dealer supplied his careless servant with intoxicating fluid and to show the amount of loss, and he recovers, if the dealer is worth the amount, "the full measure of his damages asdecided by the court. If a man is.set up - 3n or in jured in person by an intoxicated penzen, he can recover the full measure of his damages from the dealer who furnished the liquor. • "If two men become intoxicated, and in the midst of a drunken row ane murders the other, the wife of the murdered man has a right of action against the dealer who supplied.the murderer and the mur dered with liquor; and the wife of the murderer also has a right of action against the dealer for any daumges:ahe may sus tain by reason oof the husband's crime. With such a law on the statute books, it becomes liquor dealers to be careful. 4 "This legislation is based upon the eamo principle as that which holds the owner ; 14 responsible for all the damage done by an ox "wont to push with the horn"or by any other vielous animal. As such owner is • presumed to know the character of his an.. final, and hence bound to keep hint Ono= fined; so the liquor seller, and his huidkord as partner, are held to knew the tembmey of intoxiaating liquors, and. time are re- 'Tensible for the oonsequerteenf whit they . sell. We think that from the days of Mossy to the present time, the einteTtantse of this principle-luta never been called in quettion: It simply holds a man respon ibis for hisown acts." • HADN'T TUB Boors.—The farmer who vote► with the free-trade pertiocracy, votes to put himself in the same Limalean:wit as the Juan who said he could owe hsivebought the Whole site of the city of Chicago ibr a pair of boots, but he mifortunately did 'not Ixotileiss the boots.
