A WORD TO hEPUBLICANS.
,f
The lapse of time antj the CXLiTB.-
prtli nary nature of the' events that
have transpired since the appearance
of the Republican party in 'organized
form, -sometimes make it necessary
and nrotitahic to review its early
history. The necessity for, such a
lEEE=
—G;...rg , re,
review exists at this tithe. :We are
now about to enter upon another
local struggle for the mastery in
Pennsylvania. If there ever were
cogent reasons for the. maintenance
of the rule of the partY In our Com-
monwealth, such ressdns are, as
pressing to-day as ever. Deltioeratic
rule.,luis . ever proved reactionary ;
Republican rule is.progreasive. Dem
ocratic policy weighted the Common
wealth with Alcbt, with next to noth
ing to show fov.it; Republican policy
has redeemed and ;caneeled about
one-half of that -ddbt burden, and
made provision fOr. the extinguish 7 '
Ment of about two-thirds of it. Dem
ocratic rule depressed State credit to
a ruinous degree; Republican policy
has raised ,State credit to highest
point., of health.
TWenty-flvo years ago there was
no Republican party as we know it
to-day. The elements existed, but.
they lacked organized form and,
therefore, force. It became necessary
to combine those elements and give'
farm, force and direetion to the new.
party. It became nece4iary to seleet
some man_ who represented the pro
gressive political ideas of• that tinie,
and to. make that man a leader And
rallyingpaint. It was then that this
Mau was sought 'where he' was most
likely to be found, in.j,the. locality
where those progressiVe ideas had
acquire& most force'. and had the
greatest following. The choice fell
upon David Wilmot, a man of the
people, who had the courage of his
opinions, and who represented, emi;
hentiy, the Republican idea. His
selection was a necessity; but his
acceptance of the candidacy for the
executive office of the State was a
sacrifice. No man better understoOd
that defeat Was certain. But it was
necessary to crystallize the elements.
of .political progress, and he - obeyed
the law "Of party origin an&growth.
lie made„the campaign single=handed s ,
and thus became in fact the founder
of the Republican party in Pennsyl
vania. To .the old Wilmot district
the harken honors of that campaign
belong. The chief fur ction of the .
party in that district e •er since has
been to 'reinforce the; party in the
,State. It . has ezerciael-that function

the party, and through the party' to

the Wilmot district, have czetisibuted
,
litae to its volume, and its verdicts
at the polls have done littlf4o swell
its tides. In all times i t of fictional
quarrel the venlict of the Ilepubli
cans of this district haS been waited
for: with great interest, and it has
seldom been disappointing.
It is 4atural, therefore, Mara this
tune, when the spirit of factionlis oh
ftreperous, that RPpu:hliimns should I
turn th'ir eyes toward! the - distrieit
where the party. was Cradled, and
where the faith - has been preserved
in its purity. It is natural that Re.
,publicans should -seek a standard
bearer among the men wilA offered
their - great leader as a sacrifice In
order that the party might be organ
ized and go out to do its great work.
And we regard it as a wed-earned
and well-deserved 'compliment to the
people of this district that-the name
of 4Senator Wm. T. DANICS has been
so widely. mentioned in connection
with the candidacy for .Lieutenant-
Governor. A' thorough Republican,
who ha's the courage of his opinions,
who isr:no man's -man, but, the peo
ples only, and whose sterling worth
and 'unquestioned probityarje marked'
characteristics, he as 'nearly repre 7
sentS \ the sturdy Republican idea as
any man that could be named. • His
selection would 136 regarded as an
•
earnest of the return of. tie party to
its original policy of offering its best
men-for the suffrages'of the people;
Few men could be'fl,amed who would
give so much strength to the ticket.
Inv, , this case right, *expediency . , and
sound Republican policy would be
fused and made as•one.and the dom
inating force of such a union cannot
be doubted.
The Republican party has'now an
opportunity to exercise that higher,
wisdom which alone can perpetuate
party life. It is no - longer a question
of personal arirbitions or of ulterior
aims, it is a qiiestion of party unity ;
"and" as party; unity is the secret of
party life; it a fundamental ques
tion. We believe that . the selection
of Senator Davies for the second
plice on the ticket - would be a re
sponse to the demand of the'bestand
truest Republicanism in the State.
It would not ,only be a desirved iee;
Ognition of the worth of the man,
but of the claims of the.old_ Wilmot
district to the recognition of the
party. in the State. The intluende of
such. a selection would be to silence
the, voice of faction and encourage
the people to 4o forward in the spirit
which aniumteil- them of old.
THE PASTY or rEsissioA.Y.
31r. Henry }Patterson informed the
Dernocracy at the recent celebration
of the birthday of Andrew Jackson;
that they must realize that "there
has, been a lane," and that the
"party must dome into 'power, if . at
all, as 'the party of to-day; not of
yesterday." •
Wiaterson 'says a great many fool
ish things ; but his.. remarks on this
occasion contained a number of good
things and several wile suggestions,
to 'his fellow sufferers. Some of the .
1
rocks upon which his party had split
were pointed a out, and the practice,
so common among his party le‘ders,
of running the party' , directly upon
those rocks was 'condemned. , But
the best thing ; in his speech was his
definition ;of his patty as "the . " party
of yesterday."
For the past twenty-five yeaks the
Democratic party has at no time been
up with the spirit of the'age ; but it
has been waiting, years behind the
to-clay in politics, for the next cen•
tury to catch up with it and roll it
into the
. present. It has been the
party not of progress, but of obstrue.
throwing : impediments in the
path of progressive legislation, and
by itsilliberal, impolitic conserva
tism it has driven thousands. away
from its fcild.
After slavery had been condemned
by the enlightened spirit of Ameri
can eitizens and its extension had
been prohibited by. the sentiment of
a large majority of the people 'of the
country, the institution .was steadily
sustained and its extension into the
mterritories insisted upon. by the De-
',Deistic party. Upcip that issue the
party opposed the progress ..of the
newer, better sentiment of Justice
and humanity which finally tiquinph-
ed, and gave us in fact what we had
before been only in name, a free
country.
The tactics observed by the De
mocracy- in this case have been fol-
lowed ever since. .A4l through the
war the progressive measures such
as issuing paper currency and levy
ing drafts were vigorously opposed ;
and afterward the enfranchisement
of , negroes, the resumption of
speAe paymepts; and other legislative
acts demanded by the ever changing
necessities of the present, : wore in
their turn subjected to disapproval.
They now 'generally-acknowledge
the injustice of slavery;.the proprie
ty of the suspension of specie pay
ments during the war ; and the pros
perous result of resumption which
was no strongly opposed by them.
Year -after year they advance and
occupy the old positions of . the Re
publicans, sometimes oneyear behind,
and sometimes ten, Init , always'be
hind. Therellas been no time when
they have taken a progressive step
on any impoitant question, unless the
step had preViously been .t_aken by
their opponents. They have 'followed
along in a slip-shod way o' an old
path, sometimes changing a course,
but never reaching any different point
than the one which their progressive
antagonist occupied years before.
They make no newcanqiis, but grum
blingly occupy old ones which have
.I*come useless to the Republicans
because of age
-; No wonder a large majority of the
_ .
young . men join the RePubto lll o4l4
laugh at the_pretentions of this slow
going party that lain nolracticni of
the spirit of the age; ,ntid cannot
hear the demand for _pope* which
everywhere in this colntryis urging
Amprovement and advance. It is
,he
yond question that three-fourths of
the young_ men are joining the Re
publicans, and some papers say nine.'
tenths; _ and - this will continue as
long as` the parties remain Uncikenged.
The love of progress end the hatred
of inaction which every true Awed
can boy feels, and the desire he has
to be identified with organizations
that
. typify the , stirring, active, pro
gressive spirit which he possesses,
will privent him from joining the
Democratic party until there is an
entire.change in its conduct.
If the party expects to be popular
among the young men; and has any
desire to be suecessful t it will do well
to consider Mr. Watterson's timely
suggestions. We cannot see noT act
with a party of yesterday ; but took
to the party of the present that
meets the questions of to-day and is
alive to its issues. Yesterday is gone
and the party , whica lives for it will
find that it is nlwayi oce day ; too
late.
ON Friday last, Henry Wadsworth
ongfellow, America's poet laureate,
died at his residence in Cambridge,
Mass, after a short illness. Among
the literary men whom this country
has produced Longfellow stands first
in fame and ability, and not only
here but in England, the gifted au
thor of Evangeline Is recognized as
one of the great poets of the country
and is given rank with Tennyson.
All over 'the world and especiallly in
every . cultivated - American home will
Longfellow's- death 'throw a shade o
sadness, and none who have read his 1
poems will hear the i3..d news with- I
out feeling thata friend is gone.
His life was one of the happiest and
most useful which is possible for
man to live, and as it is examined, its
beautiful symmetry, its perfect i•eace
fulriesss and its grand - manliness are
rich with useful lessons for all. He
did not die as so -many poets have,
when his life was only half lived ; but
was spared till more than three score
years and ten had pained l .and
every year of his manhood— was
rich with the achievements -of
a noble worker When he 1 died
••Ift count of years was fan :
. Illy allotted task was wrought,"
and it was nobly, manfully
wrought. Thousands of homes
are happier and purer for the work
which he did ; and he leaves behind
him a history and a name which will
'be remembered until American poe
try is forgotten. The homes which
he filled with music and the hearts
which were in some measure spirit- 1
ualized by his poetry are numberless, '
anfl at home and abroad, the influ- i
ence of his labor in 'elevating and
purifying mankind is recognized.
He was a grand, noble hearted man
whose, sour was- full of melody and
whose thoughts were always beauti
fully expressed. Among his poemsl
a . critic can find few if any which he
would dare call poor. All were
well done and told the rare scholar
ship and poetic inspiration which he
possessed. In the death of Longfel
lOw America loses her most famous
scholar, and the world one of.its best
poets. He will always be gratefully,
reverently remembered, and the com
'went he passed on ebannin g will be
applied to him by all who read his
works.

Lucius Robinson, of 'Elmira, is
talked of Or the Democratic mains-
Lion for Governor. We believe there
is a tradition that on a former occa
sion Mr. Robinson was a candidate,
and that after election his political
scalp' was carried by the Tammany
sachem to the- great hall of his tribe
where a boisterous dance was held
over the gory trophy. This was not
many years ago and it seems almost
incredible that the good old gentle
man's hair should have become long
enough to .. mske him presentable as a
candidate• If it is, however, there is
.no doubt that_John Kelly's scalping

Among the recently patented de
vices for interpreting the hearts of
young ladies is the sugar device. If
your best girl always remembers the
amount of sugar you- like in your
coffee, and forgets the wishes of other
young men upon the same important
subject, then you are justified in ask
ing the momentous question at least,
so says the Press. Now far the effi
cacy of this test might be impaired

Where one young: man has given the

him of the thousand to place entire
confidence in this test. It can only
be confidently trusted where other
things are equal.

if the paper must die, we prefer that

The huge circus and menagerie, posters

As the days lengthen the "loekers-bn"
who have been in daily attendance at the

fashionable turn-onts on the avenues are

While the pressure for place has been
unusually strong, and hotels and boarding
houses have been well patronized, the
harvest has not been' altogether golden.
As ,usual, unpaid board-bills and carpet

only mementos of the friendly. visit of
these patri.its. Experience, it would
seem, brings with,it no lesson of profit to
either party ; as year follows year, the
same scenes are enacted and the' same

Beyond the introduction of bills, the
legislative work at the Capitol appears to
be progressing slowly,- although it is said
the committees to which the various ap
propriation bills have been assigned are
well on with their work and will soon be
ready to report. While awaiting the as
of these committees, both House and
Senate during the past and present week
employe - 1 their time by indulging in a lit
tle discussion over the ‘ MormOn and Chi
nese questions. The bill prohibiting
polygamy and the immigration - of, the
almond-eyed orientali for the next twenty
years, after considerable discussion, have
been finally passed 'by both bodies and
are now only awaiting _the signature of
the President to become a law.
As regards Mormonism, there is in this
atmosphere seemingly but one voice ;
while on the Chinese question there. is
quite a diversity of opinion. The enact=
went of a law with a - view of preventing
the immigration of any natintdityis held
by many to be unjust and 4degal, and not
at all' in harmony with what has been
held as the policy of, the American goir
arum:sit. The Memnon Church, it is said,
fought with great tenacity the passage of
the bill providing for the obliteration of
that institution; of
money, it was said, re sent from the
Church to Washington, together with a

en let 44 the Senator, his already given
his appears to be occupying the
attention of.tbat body to a very madder
able eztent. Daring the past two-weeks
it has been . among the principal subjects
of discussion, bat among all the views
that have so far been presented, there are
none that appear more dear and compre-
bends* than those of• Senator Cameron.
The speech of the Senator shows a famil
iarity with and ; thorongb understandh3g
of this question which, in very - many re
spects, is of so much importance to the
people ot Pennsylvaniu. . While the views
allvenced by the Senator will doubtless
have s very considerable waight in the
presentadjustnient Of s this mach-legislated
question, they will also show that the
&miter is in possession of a knowledge
of the general legislative wants and inter
ests of the country, all of which the oppo.
sition presi would very gladly deny if
they 'could.
On Wednesday of this week General
and Mrs. Grant arrived in 'the city, and
have up to ttVrefent time heed the
guests of Pres ident Arthur. Prom the
very elegant manner in which the ex-
Pres:dent and wife have been entertained
by their . old -friends, it is evident that
warm friendships are still in existence ;.
and from the demonstrations of welcome
by the masses whenever the General ap
pears in public, it is evident that tbere is
still existing a 'warm friendihip in the
hearts of the people. Whatever may be
dof the Administrations of President
Grant in the remembrance of the past,
there arises no unpleasant odors of "lit
erary bureaus" established in the interest
of Presidential aspirants at the expense
of the government, and charged to the
"ale-holders," Ileandles" and stationery
account of the Treasury Department. It
was reserved for- the sugar-coated civil
service adminis t ration of President Hayes
to develop intellects sufficiently gigantic
to inaugUrate this kind of business. The
genuine welcome extended by President
Arthur to the a-President is evidence
upon his part that his elevation to the
chief magistracy of the nation does not
with him inspire a disposition . to encom
pass the downfall and destruction of his
Mons's-
The latest rumor in circulation with
regard to the political situation in Penn
sylvania is that General Beaver, of Centre
county, and Senator Davies, of Bradford
county, will without question ?delve; the
nomination of the Republican party for
Governor and Lieutenant Governor of the
State at the forthcoming State Conven
tion. With regard. to Senator Davies,
while be is well and favorably known
throughout the State, it may be said that
in Northern Pennsylvania there is no one
more popular with the people than the
Senator. In the political circleS of his
home he has lone been know . 2 and recog
nized as a Republican who has always
stood firmly by the principles of his party
and by his friends. Congratulations 'are
not just yet in order, but we maybe al.
lowei to say that a better or more suita
ble nomination could not be made—and
we don't jnaulge with either lemon or
sugar.
In the coming Cabinet changes. it is an
*sabred fact that Senator Teller, of Colo
rado, will be nominated for Secretary of
the Interior. It is also said by thOse who
ought to know that General Beale, who
was Minister to Russia under. President
Grant, will be nominated for Secretary of
the 'Navy. These prognostications will
doubtless prove true, - unless Mr. Arthur
has imbibed some of Mr. Rayes's way of
doing business, which is not &t all proba-

LONGFELLOW DEAD.
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, the
pbet, Friday, yielded up his - life peace
fully and calmly in the midst of his
family in Cambridge. His , gentle
heart had scarcely ceased its pulsa
tion .when, the sorrowful fact was
made known to the Ca
mbridge
, denizens of
by seventy-five strokes upon
the telegraph. alarm, that number be
ing the sum of his earthly years.
For many rnatiths his failing health
has compelled an almost complete
withdrawal from society, - and during
that period he= has remained at his
historic home, declining all invita:
tions, his thoughts centering Upon his
own immediate friends and neighbors.
. His last appearance -1n public was
on the occasion of the '2soth anniver
isary of the settlement of Camblidge,
-in.Decernber,'lBo, when, at the morn--
ing exercises at the Sanders Theatre;
he made a brief addieSs 'to the chil
dren of the public. schools, ,who, at.
the conclusion of the programme,
gathered about him eager to grasp
his honored hand. . •
lIIS' FATAL; ILLNESS.
His first severe illness began last
Saturday. On that day .he spent
some time in walking and sitting up
on the piazza, and upon his return to
bis room he was attacked with chills,
accompanied _by,vomiting.. All day
Sunday he complained' of severe
stomach pains, and opiates' were ad
ministered to allay -the; trouble and, .
induce sleep. His condition seemed
somewhat improved until, :Monday,
when. dangerous' . symptoms became •
manifest and the family were.serious
-4Y alarmed. Tuesday ni - orning the..
aymptons assumed an, aggravated
form, and it became evident to ithe •
household that his death was near.
Wednesday and Thursday ;there was
slight improvement, there° being a
.disposition to sleep almost constantly.
During'the afternoon and evening. of
Thursday he talked a good deal about
carious topics, and seemed to recover
a large portion of his • usual bright

and cheerful disposition*. • Later in
the night hesbecanie partially unto`
