from the old world tell us of tho rapldlr
falling health of lion. James G. Blalnc.tlie
most able and brilliant Republican leader
of till time. For twenty ter.rs atnlRuty
power In Contreii, he led partv hosts on to
many a hard won Tlctory; on over? Im
portant party question his voice was first
and foremost In those heard from the ros
trum, until party fealty and James Uialne
were recogalied as one. There Is to day,
bo Republican who can take and hold the
place of Blaine for brilliant statesmanship.
He is to the Republican party what Jeffer
son, Jackson, Tllden and banning were
to Democracy.
The hbal issue uxtwkem tiie two
great political parties Js how to set and
keep the offices.
Thb Mills TAitirr bill will come up
before Congress on Tuesday next, when It
Is expected that Mr. Mills, who has been
seriously prostrated for some time, will be
able to appear and defend his measure.
There Is probably no Democrat In the
House better able to cope with the opposi
tion on the Impoitant measure than Is Mr.
Mills, who has labored ions and assiduous
ly in perfecting all Icatuies of ills tariff
MIL la case of a relapse, however, the
arduous duty will fall on Congressman
Scott, of this Stat. This gentleman, al
though known to be astute and potent In
committee work, and an effective If not a
ready speaker In debate,has still to demon
strate his fitness to catry a parliamentary
load as beayr as that under which poor Jr.
Mills has broken down.

Pennsylvania cannot let tho coal that Is for

and enma of slavery. But there never was
such robberj of labor; such starving ot
men, vomen and children; such merciless
exactions of avarice; such disregard of
Ban's duty toman; such starvation dis

South as upon the miners and miners'
families of Pennsylvania. If there Is no
political cower In Pennsylvania to rise and
remedy this terrible evil of outrage on hu

that State, consequent on the unchecked
avarice andextorllon of those who have to
labor, where it cannot escape save tlirotich

politics were rent asunder and tho people

POLITICAL H0TE8.
From the New York Age: It Is report
ed that Mr. Chauncev M. Depew will soon
eive to the press a letter refusing to allow
the use of bis name as a Presidential can
didate. From tho Chicago Herald: The major
Uy of the Republican party in Iowa does
not want Allison. Iowa Is a prohibition
State. Allison Is an antl-pruhlbltlontst,
u nas aeciareu mrnseii as such once or
twice. All that can be said of the delega.
Uon to Chicago is that It will voto for
Allison until It sees a good chance to flop,
and then It will flop
There has been a maiked change In
Democratic politics of late years In New
York. Four years asro the ereu leaders In
the Democratic party In that State were
Samuel J. Tllden, Daniel Mannlng.Hubert
O. Thompson and John Kelly. These men
are now in their graves, and in their places
stand Grover Cleveland, David Bennett
Hill, Manrlce J. Power'and Richard Crok
er. From tho Buffalo Meat: Mr. Depew
is the first choice of the majority or the
Republicans In this section. What effect
that will have upon bis chances of nomina
Uon If he should be a candidate remains
to be seen. What effect the enthusiastic
snpport of western New Yoik Republicans
woull have upon his chances of election
should he bo nominated likewise remains
to be seen. But It Is very clear that he has
a decided boom hereabouts.
From the IKashlngton Critic: Those
New York Democrats who try to persuade
themselves into the belief that President
Cleveland will not be a candidate for re
nomination at St. Louis, are quietly feeling
toe public pulse as to a boom for Secretary
YThltney. They assert that Whitney Is
Cleveland's choice as bis successor, and
that the Empire State would respond with
an overwhelming majority for the popular
Secretary of the Navy.
Front the Boston Daily Advertiser
The tone of the Republican press through
the country is generally favorable to a
Presidential ticket made up or Depew and
Harrison, they being from States which
Will undoubtedly decide the contest, and
Mr. Depew seeming to many the roost
available candidate to secure the vote or
New York. Personally and polltically.very
little If any, criticism could bo made upon
this ticket, even by Us opponents.
OUR PHILADELPHIA LETTER.
Philadelphia. Ta.. April 0, '83
The recent Issne of the Advocate was
a sockdollager. It did the hlfalutlng grand.
Eight pages I somewhat on a scale of the
Metropolitan press, and for a town of 3C03
inhabitants. No wonder that Its editor
takes such a " pardonable pride " In scall-
lag the attention of the public to such an
achievement. The business men and enter
prise that contributed to this, are certainly
deserving of success. It denotes the pro
gressive. On Friday morning last week, in Cathe
dral cemetery, a woman and Infant were
found dead. The woman had given birth
to the child daring the early morning hours.
The cause of death la each case was from
exposure and non-attendance. The case Is
a heart-rending one; it has Its horrible
hearings, and the pity of It appealed to the
stoutest hearts. The identity of the poor
woman was a mystery until the following
Sunday morning, when the city detectives
traced the woman to her late home. She
was a married woman the wife of a worth
leu fellow, who failed to snpport her as a
husband should. It Is supposed that dur
iag the afternoon of Thursday she entered
the cemetery In the usual way, and spent
all sight-In the dismally suggestive place;
having no one to place any dependence
VfM ht kr jsoor relatives, she. It U sup-
means to Secure relief
from her troubles. Poor soul, let us hope
she has found tiiat relief most devoutly to
be wished for by all that are weary and
heavy laden. It seems almost Impossible
that, in the midst of wealth and charllahlo
Institutions, such a thing could happen.
But It has happened, and carries vtlth It Us
solemn reflections and Inquiries as to the
why and wherefor.
The " boys " declare that It makes their
heads swim; tlmt It Is a veritable explosion
more destructive than dvnamlte,thls license
court. An explosion of dynamite would
came no greater sensation or consternation
amongst the whtskv and beer peopla than
do tho four judges who pass upon merits of
license applicants, and by their many re
fusals red ui o the number for place by more
than 75 per cent.
"Our Public Lands for the People" Is a
good subject, and was very ably handled by
Hon. II'. M. Rapshcr. It proved to be the
feature of the Advocate. It is full of
merit, and deals with solid facts; Its argu
mentativeness Is convincing and Incuntro
vcrtablc. While It recognizes the right of
property, it yet propagates that Idea which
Involves a higher right the right to live
and the opportunity to make a Hying hon
orably. What could be more convincing
as to the propriety of this higher right than
that clear and lucid application, Illustrated
by Lady Mathcson's sole ownership of the
Island of Lewis. Her tenants were legally
and solely at her mercy and If they cannot
pay her the rents she demands they can go
Into the ocean and submit to those conse
quences. Is It not monstrous to think and
feel that because one was not born with a
sllverspoon In the mouth that there must
be submission to every and any Indignities
offered by those fomnate one's who in
herited or acquired by conniving, etc. No
wonder that Cardinal Manning, tho great
Catholic divine of England, was moved to
say in the nineteenth century In pleading
for the worthless: "H'ill any thoughtful
man say that In such a state a father, see
ing a wife sinking by want and toll, and
his children famishing for lack of bread, Is
free from tho strong temptation to find
unlawfully the food which society refuses
cxceptl on vcr odious conditions to give
him lawfully. Add to this tho sense of In
justice when, without fault of his own, he
Is brought down lowant. And as men are
human, there comes In a sting of resent
ment when he sees on every side an abund
ance of food and clothing lis those who
never labor and never lack." Remember,
this is the language and feeling of a most
eminent divine orthodox in the fullest de
gree. Had a lesser Individual made this
declaration, the "savior of socloty" hounds
would have belched fortn their invectives
on all sides. Braie words are these of
Cardinal Manning, and braver indeed are
the men who dare fearlessly preach the
doctrine of the rights or all meu. There is
a good sign as to such questlous the edu
cated men, deep thinkers or the age, are
taking hold of them and developing them
so as to make them respectable. This lat
ent force will yet wake itself felt, by mold
ing and creating public feeling and opinion,
so as to produce a remedy that will have
underneath it tho justice for which alone
man craves. "I am a man. and everything
human to me Is as my own," are tho words
of an emancipated slave. I hone to see
more contributions to tho columns of The
Advocate from the clear and reasoning
mind of Mr. Rapsher, they will educate,
and they will convince, for their basis Is
justice, that justice which finds Its lodge
ment In the natural rights of man.
.IKell, the Federal officials of Philadelphia
are again being subjected to an investiga
tion, conducted by a special committee of
the U. S. Senate. These republicans are a
pitiable, sickly set of fellows they cry and
bowl like stuck pigs because of the ottlccs
they had but now haye not. The special
mission of this committee, no dsubt, Is to

Gently and tenderly, last week, lovim
hands .bore to his last resting place on eaith
all that was mortal of Father John Drum
coole, the founder of the Mission of the
Immaculate Conception for Poor Boys, on
l.atmettc place, in this city. lie was onb
an numoie priest; but In the long list of
saints which adorn the calenders of ihe
Church of Rome, from St. Peter to Plus,
noi one worthlnerof canonization can he
found than John Drumgoole. Not among
tue ncu and the great did this priest's mis
ston lie; unt among the wretched waifs, by
man forsaken, whom the priest and the Le-
Vlte passed by; the Inheritors of sin and
crime, the children of the lost. No apparent
glory here; none of the world's applattae; no
money nor flno clothes; nothing but the
Afaster's approval of his work, for that he
lived and died. It Is over twenty years slnre
he marked out the bounds of hit mission
l he old cathedral on Prince street, where
Bishop Dubois and Bishop Ilughes labored
for many years, Is in the centre of a crime
Infested neighborhood, where sin crown mi:

Five Points stretches Its tentacles, sllmv
and dark, up Mott street, filled with Chin,
ese vacahonds, Italian UxaronI and brig
ands, rag-pickers and opium Joints; Crosby
and Elizabeth streels. full of beggars,
swindlers and thieves; on the north and
east, Bleecker, Houston. Bond, Sullivan
and numerous other streets of minor Im
portance, reeklni with all sorts of Infamv.
ijonu street, the paradise of swindlers, and
Houston street. Ili mmnlnir.fTmiiml r

hood swat mi with ihottsinds of rsgied
unkempt a-abs of both sexes, who neie
born In sin. who never liranl tt mm r
Christ or God, exceot when uttered by pro
fane lips; who, while still or tender age,
drank and swore and gambled and stole,
and who looked with pride and hope
towards the day when they might earn a
commltmer.t to the penitentiary, or per
haps crown a lite of shame with the nlory
of standing beneath the gallows. Rather
an unpromising Held this, but It was heie
John Drumgoole been his work. Th
roung priest came to Bishop McCloskey,
lis face beaming with hone. nrt i,,m 1,1.

crip. Jit a lew nays In a little room don

wretched, gloomy place, but from that little
grain of mustard saed sprang the Mission

and his work. Ho lived to see the ft nil Ion
of his holy mission nnd to eint that re
ward, pi Ued by uojd Catholics above all
others, the Papal blessing. Quite, un
ostentatious; humble, trustful, houeful, he
lay pcucefully down lo test, and lo reap
his tlcli reward. It was a lesson not to bo
rurgottcn lo see the room In the stately
mansion wliero John Diuuigoole lived and
died. Through his hands passed millions,
but It all nent to the poor and the nee.lv,
or himself he never thought. The furni

win need no nobler monument.
A sensailon of the week has been the re
markable association discovered between
Luther Marsh, nne of our most eminent
and wealthy lawycis, and a female adyvii
l ttrcss, calling herself Madame Diss Debarr.
What can we sav and what can we do?
Mine. Diss Debarr, who claims lobe a gen
uine countess and tho left-handed daughter
of a king, professes the ability lo paint
spirit pictures. She lakes a plain piece of
canvass, holds It over your head, and be
fore you ran say Jack, much less Robinson,
she will give, you a portrait of any one
from Julius C'tcsar to Johu L. Sullivan
You sav you don't bellevo It. What or It?
Mr. Marsh says he has got one hundred of
the pictures; that he saw them materialize,
and as an evidence or his faith In the lady's
ahillt to raise the spirits, he has deeded
her his magnificent hnuso on Lexington
avenue, and uveivthlng In It. Il'lial can
one say when a witness like this stands up
ready to swear that all he says is true?
Madam Diss Debarr professes to be the
daughter of Lola Monies And tho King of
liavarla. The public ma look for a start
ling revelation In regard to this rcalter,
which will prove a noeht trlstc to Madame
Diss Debarr and a petard lo Mr. Marsh.
A shocking climax lo a double life cul
minated In inuiderlast week, which has in
volved three person In ruin. The wife will
go down broken-hearted to the grave, the
brother Is in his craw asasslnated by his
wlfo's brother, in Brooklwi licd a gentle
man and his sister by the. name or C! recti,
both persons or comfortable fortune. From
tho time of their mother's death the sister
kep house for her brother, nnd as their
means were ample their lives were pencil'
ful and happy. Near by was a neighbor by
the name of Roldenklrch, a handsome
young fellow of about twenty-four. Hw
wasa fiequent visitor atlheGreun mansion,
b :l as thfc re was a wide disparity between
Miss Green's ago and his own, sho being
forty and ho twenty-four, nothing was
thought of It at first At length tho brother
grew jealous, nnd thought there was some
thing wrong between the visitor nnd his
sister, and eventually forbid him the house:
but this made no difference to Uoldcnkireli
or the sister. He came just as before. Last
week Mr. Golilenkireh called at the Green
mansion, and was met at the door bv Mr.
Green, who forbade him to enter. Golden-
kitch pushed him on one side, and Green
shot him dead on the spot. It then ap
peared that Miss Green nnd Mr. Golden
klrch had been man led for five years. He
had concealed the fact of his marriage
i loin ins tamii , and she had never men
tloned it to her brother, though In dally In
tercourse with him during the whole period
of her marriage life; The fatal secret has
been dcarlv paid for, especially as there
appears to haye been paiilcular reason why
the marriage should not have been made
public, ihe mttidered man was upright
honest and industrious, and the la.h of
ample fortune,) forty years or age, and ac
countable to no one for her actions. The
murderer Is now In jail awaiting trial, and
the stilflien wife now hovers between life
and death.
Old John Afagulre, who fell dead at the
Anli-I'overty Meeting three weeks ago.
was refused christian burial on the ground
that he was a heiellc anil a follower of Dr.
McGlynn. They look old John lo Green,
wood, but he does not feel cotnf.nlnbln In
t ip "ocletv or a lot of heretic: I'rnln.tants.
and he wants lo have his rour bones dug up

aid of the courts lias been Invoked, and
Archbishop Corrlean and the Trustees ot

the Archbishop lias got old Join; In a

A funny ease was that of Gllson Rhlne

with a comply widow as his wife for over
twenty years. Two weeks ago he na
taken crazy, and acted so wildlv that his
wife ran out of Ihe house. Officers were
sent for. and the doctors examined him
and committed him to the lunatic nsvlitm,
Among the other tests, they put a bottle
of assaroedltan under his noc. and that
restored him to reason. It then annearnd
that his madness was assumed for the pnr
poifi of getting rid of the woman he was
l ving wun, and who was not his wire, nnd
al'o for the purpose of reinstating in his
home ins real wife whom he deserted for
