The editor of tho Timet, nllhough
but a few months in tho Stato, has
already made tho following difioovory:

publicana in all eot-tlona or the oounty will nee

proacnt Ditnoorutio tufpirauta fur oflloo.
This nllcgotion is hull truo., 'Hint
tho lladiculs in this Stuto always with
held thoir votos from Domocrntio aspi
rants for olllco, is truo, and every
school boy knows It. In Michigan it
may bo othorwiso. That tho Demo

truo. ' ':-('"
. Next his independence isdevclopod.
11 o says:
' We molt certainly will net our Influence, In the
rllit way, to defeat Iho nouiiuatluui of tbe Dem
ocratic tk-kut. ...
That is just what tho editor of tho
Journal is doing, but he does it like a
man, squarely and honostly. We hope
Democrats will now understand tho
position of tho Times editor.' His
indupondenco is a bold fraud, and ho
intends to use his position to defeat
the Domocralio nomineos, boonuso
thoy are such, just liko any othor
Radical editor. And tho Democrats
who a io iiroon enouirh to aid hitn in
doing so will bo sold. Again, be says:'

Wo deny it. lie may hnvo beon,
but not now.- If be intends to ro-
main, or improve bis nomocracy, he
has gono to the wrong placo. Men
who do not mako a profession of Do-
oiocracy seldom touch it. Besides,
tho editor of the Times is not a com-
notcnt witoesB. Not bavin? beon in
tho Stato over three months, It is im
possible for him to say who are and
who are not Democrats. Wo know
men who call themselves Democrats
who have not voted tho Democratic

The A'orth- Western Hospital.

the friends of tho North-Western Hos
pital every reason to boliove that he
would Sign mo uui lor iUBb prujuci.,
now goes back on his assurance and
rolusos to attach his signature. It is
moro than hinted in lact, pluinly
charged tbat the Governor's doublo-
dcaling in this matter is duo to the
influence of the Maekoy King, to whom
it is generally supposed bo owes his
nomination and eleotion. Tho King
have no idea of allowing some eJOO,
000 or moro to slip out oi their clutches
especially when, by tho provision of
the bill, thoy will have no share in
disbursing it. llio course ot Mover-

When tbo entire medical profession

urirent necessity, It is ratuor a pro-
sumptuous pioco of businoss for iho

A torriblo accident occurred at half
past ton o'clock lust night near Le

ng witn the soutn bound express pas
scngcr train, almost entirely wrecking
too latter, killing cloven persons out

so von others, somo of whom it is said
will die. Iho cars caught Gro and a
number of the injured . were badly
burned, whilo others wero scalded by
hot water Irom the locomotives boilers.
Although Lcmont is only about twen-
milcs south ot this city, tho acci

twclvo and ono o'clock this morning,
and then only to ptrticg who happen

An custom ponor arttuos throiitrh a
wholo oolumn says the Pittsburg 1'ost,
to susluln tho position that a Demo
cratio form of govornmont Is tho bout.
This would bava boon regarded on an
hands, somo rears ago, us a work ol
supererogation a pioao of unnecsosary
labor a moro onort ni an amuiuoun
writer to show his ability in setting
up a thoory, in order to exhibit bis
skill in knocking it over.
But ron v in this our day and gen
eration, tho signs of tho times are full
of omens, going to show thai even in
our own boasted lund of froomcn, it is
nooessury to broasO tho influences ol
and resist tho tendencies towards Im
perialism. Superficial thinkers and
caroloss obsorvera are too busy, each
one with bis pwn selfish plans for tho
accumulation of wonltn, to nood ino
indications of tho day, and dorido inoso
who would warn tho people of tbe ap
proaching dangor; while others care
naught lor llio principles mat no ov
theloundution of our systom, and bug
to Iboir boson.8 tbo flattering idea
thut all things will move along hii ugly
aud Bafely without any effort on thuir
part to koop tno macninory on toe
propor track. Others, again, havo no
hesitation in saying that so thoy aro
prosperous in their efforts to gather
pilos of wealth, thoy don't care w hat
is dono at Washington. All these
folks ore iu dorp error. Tba Indian,
tions point with unerring certainty
to the rapid growth of usurped power
on the part of tbo Gonerul Govern
ment; of a serious purpose to blot
Statu lines and Slate govornmont out
of existonce in short, to divort our
govornmont from what it was whon
it camo from tho bands of the mon
who formed it, and who so fur as
political wisdom is concerned may
truly bo said to havo boon undor tho
inlluonce ot inspiration ; and to maxe
it an Kmpiro, composed of provinces
which onco woro Slalos.
This would bo no new thing In tbo
world's history. It bus been doue,
and it may bo done again. Spain
once was composod ol sundry indo-
fiendont kingdoms, each possessed of
egislolive bodies," beforo whom her
kings woro compelled to yield, liui
Castile and Arragou wero melted
down Into Spain tho two limited
monarchies woro converted Into ono
consolidated Absolutism, and tho pco-
ilo became sluves, and havo so re
mained even until this day. No peo
ple ever yet permanently preserved
their freedom through centuries with
out watchfulness without a jealousy
of thuir rulers.
The tHU'erence.
The New York Hcrmld, in contrast
ing tho difference in the prominm on
cold between f ranco and luo united
States, makes tbe following wbolo6omo
remarks :
Franco, It is said, will soon resume
specie payments, though, in fact, sas-
lansion bus boon lilllo moro man nom-
nul in tbat country. - The pooplo thore
havo hardly known that specie pay
ments wire suspended, so small bus
boon tho premium on specio and so
lilllo the dill'ureiioe between gold and
paper. 1 hruuini all the terrible di
aiders and enormous cost of tbe war
wilb Germany and of the Commune
with the thousand million dollars of
ndcmniiy to pay Germany, and huv
ni; bsforo all this a national debt
nearly equal to thut of tho United
Slates at prosent, tbo premium on gold
novcr went up much, aud lo-duy is
only a fraction of ono por cent. The
tinted stales tins beon eight years al
peace, bus paid off all the floating in
dubtednces of the war and live bond
red millions of debt besidee, and is be
yond all question tho richest country
T . -.i !.!.... : .1 i.i

and yet the premuim remains at nt-
tocn per cent, and abovo. Why this
dilTerouce between tho two countries?
Would specio in tho Treasury hi ing
us to or near specie payments f Wo
have known the Treasury to have
as much, surplus gold as ino nniin oi
England in its vaults, and yet the gold
iireinium remained high, iho truth
is we are largely a debtor nation ; we
buy and borrow to a muoh greater
amount than we soli., franco, on the
contrary, soils moro than sho buys,
exports moro than she imports. As
a cousoquenco both the specio on hand
and all we can raiso from the mines is
mortiracod abroad. Hero is tho sccrot
oi the wholo mailer.
