POLITICAL PORM Reports have beeiemade that.tbe Repub licans and Independents in the FloridiLeg islature were strong enough to control that i body. Thy is doubtless untrue, '•but the fact that there was some ground for the rumor shows *hat an advance, lib l fral ideis have made in the State. A few more elee lions will probably see Florida again a- safe Republican State. 9 The Delaware Legislature is composed of nine Senators and twenty-seven .Represeri tatives, all Democrats.

Their zeal in naming. candidates and then in enumerating their disqualifications speaks well for their industry if not for their fore sight. .11tanWhile the Republican Party. is hard at work scraping off barnacles and considering reforni measures and giving more attention to proving that it is worthy to be trusted longer with pinionr than to who shall :be its candidate in 1.884: - 4--Tri 7 btZne. Onepf the most singular things relating to the Tats unpleasantness in the Republi can houselold is the unanimous declaration on the part of t . the r Democratic ,press that the party ought neye'r to heal, tile breach: The affection of • tha*verage Demrat. for the Independents almost equals that of a she-bear loiter tender offspring.; Unless the Independents stay out, say these affec tionate guardians, they will ber,taken is and done for. In our opinion; if 'the Indepen dents do . not stay out, the Democrats will be taken in and done for. Hence these prayers for war.--North American. Some of the Ohio Democrats are hugging the fond delusion that that State is solidly fixed in their yarti's cohimn. They demdn strate the claim by figures "that speak for themselves," and if a Dethilrat is stronKon any point it is on figures. According to their calculation everyone who voted the Democratic. ticket last October is always go ing to vote it hereafter, all. the Republicans who stayed at home then are gobig to' keep away from the polls in the futnre, and the conditions which made this year. a bad one for the Republican party are to be 'perma nent. It's a nice argument and a comfort iug conclusion—for the Democrats. PENNSYLVANIA PARAGRAPHS. A Reading man swallowed two hundred, oysters at a sitting a feW 'nights ago.
