The Democracy of the Future
Great arc the tribulations of the opposi
tion. The recent campaign of slander and
false pretenses having ended in overwhelm
jag defeat, the organs of-the demoralized
I' actions which played themselves out so ef
textually at Cincinnati and Baltimore last
;;.honer arc. already casting about to find
:toniething which they facbtiously call "a
prinLiple" around which to rally their dis
heartened and demoralied followers. The
T. - Id; is no doubt of absorbing interest to
those engaged in it, for upon their success
depends their very existence as an organized
oiTosition party, And their frantic efforts
are a source of no little interested amuse
ment to the calm observer of political af
fairs.
While the lesser lights of the Democratic
and " Liberal" press arc busily making
what capital they can out of the llodoc war,
C., edit Mobilier, the incrase .of salaries,
and Mr. Curtis's resignation, the more pre
tentious organs arc fully conscious of the
fact that these leads of the political mine,
howeverindustriously worked, will hardly
IA ovc productive enough to carry any party
succes:,fuliy through the next Presidential
campaign. They see that the merely nega
ti-,•e, make-shift policy of finding fault with
um Republican party and denouncing the
.Icis of its few unworthy misrepresentative
men 1.611 not assist therri to regain the pop
uktr confidence which they' have forfeited
1.),. years of disloyal conduct and corrupt
proct ices. Great parties do not grow stiong
'At negations. I positive policy is wanted;
and the Democratic doctors are just bow
011,ily searching for that indispensable arti
cle. Ent it looks at this present writing as
lititigh the search would be a fruitless one,
f.,r the elements to be united are as antao
hi,tic as Tire and water. Not only are the
1 lemocrats and the " Liberals" working for
.1 1 :11 ;tent avowed ends, but all their previous
, tciations and training have been Of the
!no- opp6site character. More than this
cvtn, the Democratic party itself is made
up of the most ineougruous material, and
on the enunciation of any political doctrine
I :lore politivc than simpleoppoi%ition to Re
publicans, these conflicting elements of the
Democratic cauldron at once begin to bub-
I.le and boil.
' For instance, here is the New York4or/d,
the foremost champion of the Democratic
name and organization, flatly proclaiming
That free-trade alone must be the future
toy battle cry; whereupon the New York
Baas, an old worshiper at the shrine of
envy Qlay and the " American doctrine,"
brains to sputter and ask pertinent and
highly exasperating •questions. How our
Pennsylvania Democrats will receive this
new party shibboleth of the World may be
easily imagined. And the paper " founded
by Horace Greeley," the great knight of
protection, always without fear if not above
pi un, gt, e F ts 1L to mut political fellow
:.hip, when fhe lOW has wrought its will
nun
- turned the only organized opposition
into a purely free-trade party? We don't
, know, and we suspect the World don't care,
'for it speaks of all protectionists with un
measured hatred and contempt. Just con-
Eider this recent double-leaded fulmination:
" We fellowship all genuine free-traders;
we scorn political association with any pro
tectionist, Every citizen who is unequivo
cally for free-trade is a good-enongli Demo
crat for us; no protectionist can be a Dem
ocrat at all. The political philosophy of
Nvilich free-trade is the outgrowth includes
:dl that is fundamental in Democratic Policy.
" We repeat, with added emphasis, that
evt ry vigorous free-trader is a good-enough
Democrat; and that no protectionist can be
anything more than a sham Democrat—a
kistard, and not a son. We are impatient
to see the chaff winnowed out, and all the
wheat brought together. We stake all our
hopes on making the Democracy an out
atid-outt - thick-and-thin, aggressive (if you
please, intolerant), free-trade party, subordi
nating all issues to this, and thereby draw
ing twit:4of, all ei!izens wile have a true ap
preciation of this l great principle." .
It is evident there is trouble ahead for the
Democracy, and especially for the Pennsyl
vania Deinocrais. The great metropolitan
organ-tells the 4 that they are bastards, and
not sons cind It Is tound / Ito kick them' out
of the ;arty. That i 1 ally appreciates their
position is evident, for it talks about " the
Pennsylvania. influence which has ham
strung the Democratic party -in every Presi
dentin]. election, and :prevented its boldly
f inscribing free-trade on its banners." N i ow,
isn't this a pretty kettle of fish for our Dent
- (-Trfiv i tt What'say they? Are they prepared
to see ilia party of their love, of their lpes,
of their. prayers, turned by this New4York
magician into the free-trade party of the
future? , If they are , not, they had better

Illuminating Oils

interest to every person within the Com•
yeti •••• can't, -The domestic use of petrole•

t..rrible in their effects, 'that anything in

challenges the instant attention 'of every
householtfer. , Hardly a newspaper is . printed

diaster caused by the use of unpafe oils, or
the careless misuse of safe ones. Accidents
resulting from this last cause—the careless

It would seem that the act , whichc we pub
lish licrmaith, if rigidly enforced silt should
lie, will put a stop to the sale of all burning
fluids of a specially dangerotis character.—
s will be seen, it prohibits the sale, of 'any
iroduct of petroleum to be used in lamps
for illuminating purposes of a lower fire
test than 110 degrees. The effect 'of this
proviSion will be to completely bar the use
of all patent fluids made from benzine or
ga9olitie, except in the manufacture of gas
to be buined through pipes like ordinary
gas. It Provides for the inspection , and
branding of all oils of this nature exposed
for sale in this State, and for the seizure of
all found in the bands of retail dealers
which do not come up to the test. Tlie pen-,
alties for a violation of the law, whether by
the inspector or dealer, are severe, but all
ho reflect upon the evil it is intended to
suppress, will agree they aro not too exem
plary. A special clause gives any person
sustaining damage to person or property by
reason of the use of oil not coming up to
the legal standard an action for damages-1

Michigan, and was carried to the Supreme
Court, where the Chief Justice decided that
portion of the law to be unconstitutional
except so far as it related to the District of
Columbia and the Territories. While it is
no doubt true that legislation upon this sub
ject by Congress, making the law uniform
in all the States, Would prorriote the general
safety of the people and facilitate trade in
illuminating Oils, such legislation is rendered
impossible by this ,couseitutioual objection,
and the whole matter is relegated to the
State and local authorities. Important as
the subject is, it hi one upon N 4 Well; few

OUR WASHINGTON. LETTER.
WASHINGTON, April 22,.187g.
14rdee, alias Rev. J. Raid Barney, who
proposed a few days since that Uncle Sam's
special servants should contribute toward
his support $lO each, was arraigned to-day
before the bar of the Police Court. Thro'
the advice of his attorney, Hon. A. G. Rid
dle, he waived an examination, and he new
awaits the action of the grand jury. His
bail was fixed at $20,000. A young
man by the name of Sutton, who is sup
posed to have bgen'atonfederate of his, also
waived an examination, and was told for
$5,000 bail. It is thought that these two
aspirants for wealth will be summarily dealt
with by our courts, and be afforded a safe
retreat at'the Albany penitentiary. Several
Postmasters who have been duped by this
swindle were here as witnesses. The Post
master from Binghamton, whose generous
impulse and patriotism led him to send the
reverend gentleman an X, appeared to feel
very cheap when in court.
The geological corps, under Prof. Hay
den, will leave for\he Far West the first of
nest month, to be gone until the first of No -, 1
vember. h numbers twenty in all, consist- 1
ing in the most part of scientists, the re
mainder being cOmmon helpers, whose sal
aries are regulated according to their re
spective labors. While this survey is di
rectly under tle supervision of the Secreta
ry of the Int_ rior, and the appointments
properly belong to that Dephrtinent, the
Secretary however refuses to control any of
its management, and in only one instance
has he indorsed to Prof:Hayden an appli
cation for an appointment. There are more
than 1,600 applications for the twenty pla
ces, nearly all strongly recommended by
Senators and Representatives. One appli
cant to-day, whom your correspondent wits
nessed, was a friend of Senator Bciutwell,
and, directly from him. He seemed very
indignant when he was informed that all
the
,positions were filled; and that his appli
cation would not be favairably , considered.
The applicant assured the Professor that he
would ask Senator B. to go to Secretary
Delano in his behalf. The Professor very
-------
abruptly rie ; plied, " You can do as yoir - like.
I say yoP tin't go." The Interior Depart
ment has received many letters from men
of science from diflerent parts of the coun
try urgently reauestin. t---- ---, --- SI - -
to accompany the expedition, and render all
the aid in their power to the Government
without pay. It, is suggested by your cor
respondent that another - year there should
be no appropriation made by Congress, and
that a volunteer force be sought of gentle-
Then of science who are sufficiently well-to
do to render Uncle Sam the requisite service
'without pay.
Since the election in Virginia last fall
there has been a better feeling manifested
toward Northern emigrants. Many of those
who have heretofore been foremost in tie
noun4:l ing the Administration and unwill
ing t accept anything from the bands of
the It publican party, are now eager to help
along this party with a view to an immedi
ate and rapid settlement of their State.---,
Real estate agents, both in Washington and
Alexandria, have been quite busy the past
winter, and thus far this spring. They are
in daily receipt of letters of inquiriesifrom
parties North who at some future Aline in
tend to change their cold abodes for the
more congenial climate South.
A finely dressed young man of about
twenty-five summers, known as Gen. Ryan,
has been in Washington about a year. He
is accredited with being engaged in enlist
ing men for a Cuban expedition, and ac
cording to his own report he has a reserve
force of more than three thousand awaiting
his orders, all anxious to follow him to vic
tory. A few days since he addressed a let
ter to the War Department offering his ser
vices and the services of 1,000 of his force
in fighting the Modocs. As T t et he has re
ceived no reply.
The feeling hero - against the Modocs in
Lettisiana is equally as intense as against
those in California; and it is regretted that
the President does not use a little mbre of
his war power in exterminating, if neces
sary, the first named Modocs. Let the strong
arm of the Government be felt as the spirit
of "Old Hickory" would dictate.
Orders_for fifteen millions of now postal
cards have already, been received by the
Post Office Department. Philadelphia alone
wants one million. Only one-third of that
number will be ready by the first of May,
and ,it will take some days after that time
btlfore they will go into the market. 4

One million of dollars were appropriated
by Congress last session tb furnish head
stones. for soldiers' graves (250,000) in the

The Supreme Court is about, to adjourn
till its nest term in October. It will hear
no further arguments now, but, like &hap
anaconda after swallowing a whole ox, it
will digest at leisure and in dignified repose
the questions propounded during the
,past
session. This tribunal now consists of ten
Justices, who divide among themselves the'
labor of preparing decisions upon the eases
submitted. They live in the city, and min
gle quietly' in social circles; but little is ever
heard of them except among people who
have to, do with higher-law questions. -, Chief Justice Chase walks the A'-enue daily
with a step manifestly growing weaker every
'day.. His face is now covered, with a heavy
gray beard which renders it' stmiewhat Offi

rapidly closing. ,
The money market, after being strangely
manipulated by speCtdators, has at last re
lazed, end the feeling here is ;general that
the 'dead-point of , danger has passed with,
out any serious clistOter. Gold has fallen?
and currency is flowing to the great money
centers. The demand for gold to pay dtt
-6" on imports is less than fonnirlY, +Altai
indicates a diminished foreign import. On
the other hand, the mbar - pi which our se
vere winter placed transportation has
been feint - wed, and now agricultural
staples are being exported at a greatly in
creased rate. Here then we have a fantia-'
mental condition of permanent ease in the
money market—selling m4re abroad and
buying less.
The Secretary of the Civil Service _Board
of the Treasury Department will report soon
that STI applicants for chAships have been
examined in that Department. Since there
are only 41 t aearicies to till, there can pos
sibly be but one chance out of about 14.
The Congressional Prime' can find .no
law anthorizing the COnunissioner of Agri
culture.to print 2,500 copies of the annual
report, 'as was 11°1)0. Tice usual number
ordered by the Senate will be printed. It is
now proposed,to publish the statistical mat
ter of the annual report in an extra monthly
report, in May, In this way the important
results of the year will he presented in some
shape to the public without waiting until
the next session of congress.
The monthly report of the Agricultural
Department will contain a carefully pre
pared digest of the reports from the county
correspondents in regard to the epizootic
influenza which swept across this country
during the last fall and winter. It first ap
peared in Mercer county, Pennsylvania, in
August, and appeared about the middle of
September at several isolated points in New
Jersey, Pennsylvania, Maryland, Not tit Car
olina, Virginia, West Virginia, and Illinois.
This was in advance of its main line of
movement. It went around the continent
to Texas and California within two months,
and is expected in Oregon and Washington
Territories. Its greatest injury was due to
either neglect or quackery. Many fine ani
mals " died of the doctor," in the express
ive language of a loCal newspaper scribbler.
The policy of the Administration in re
fusing to enter the ring of the gold specula
tors in Wall
,street has demonstrated its
soundness by its results. The New York
clique had boasted that.if they could get
gold above 120 they would be out of reach
of the Government; they would be-as inde
pendent as the fellow up to his neck in 'Wat
er, who tot niali to "go to thunder with
his_old tub, for it wasn't going to be much
of a shower nohow." But all that Secretary
Richardson had to do was to let those fel
lows cut their own throats. The Treasury
is in a better condition than it has been for
weeks, and is retiring the re-issued green
backs so gradually that their withdrawal
has not in any way affected business.
The general idea that is beginning to pre
vail in regard to the treatment of our de
mented red brother is that a' little phlebot
omy would be decidedly beneficial to his,.
Constitution. Perhaps it Would, but we
must not forget that he sees only the dark
and repulsive side of civilization. Reis the
victim of both fraud and violence; he is the
victim of scoundrels of both high and low
degrees; he sees his hunting grounds nar
rowed daily by the advancing tide of settle
ments, and renswis often like a staring. lu
natic-. What can we do? In the first place,
we must tie his hands to prevent his injur
ing ourselves; then we must apply the
straight-jacket, and try anti-phlogistic
treatment- to reduce his circulation and
bring him to subjection. This accomplish
ed, sometliing may be done for the wretched
survivors of the race.
Considerable feeling is manifested in legal
circles in regard to the ;publication in a
New York journal of a discussion of the
United States Suprerhe Court ten daps prior
to its delivery. The spirit of journalism is
daily becoming more aggressive, and the
means by which it obtains the latest ness - s
is in many cases by no means justifiablel—
The s custodians of unpublished government
papers arc beset in a great variety of was's.
Women, wine, and money are freely plied
upon the official gentleman, Who, if not
made of unusually good material, is very
apt to give out contraband information.—
The anxiety of the different papers to get
of the latest news, prompts to the exertion
of all sorts of strategy in order to attain the
point. Under such a tremendous thumb
screw process it a difficult matter to keep
any offichil secrets at all.
ITEMS OF GENERAL INTEREST.
Baltimore is organizing a Alunicipal Re
form Association. •
Congressman Co; of New York, won'
accept his back pay.
Several county treasurers in South Caro
ling have been arrested on the charge 01
fraud.
The order of Patrons of Husbandry has
extended its operations into the far South.
The farmers of Mississippi, Tennessee, Al
abama and Georgia are organizing into
granges, and evince a lively interest in the
movement of the tillers of the soil in the
Northwest, the first named State having al
ready ono hundred granges.
Commissioner Douglass has issued orders
to all•assessors of internal revenue to turn
over all papers in their respective districts
to the collectors, except those showing the
list of persons indebted, which will be sent
to the Department. This order is issued
preparatory to abolishing the office of as
sessor, which will be done on May 20, in
accordance with the late act of Congress.
After that date assessments will be made at
the Internal Revenue Office.
Hon. E. B. Washburne, United States
Minister at Paris, last Tuesday presented to
Baron d'ltajulba, the Brazilian Ambassador,
on behalf of the American Government,
twoleases of silver plate in recognition of
the ability and impartiality with which he
discharged his duties as a member of the
Geneva Board of Arbitration. The Baron,
in reply to Mr. Washburne's remarks, grace
fully acknowledged the compliment bestow
ed upon him by the United States Govern
ment.
The judgment of the Court of Inquiry
into.the Atlantic disaster was given at Hal
ifax by Collector M'Donald. He commend
ed the conduct of the ship's officers after
she struck, but condemned the management
from the time she bore up for Halifax at 1
p. m. on the 81st. of March, especially the
conduct of her captain in leaving the deck
at midnight. The captain's certificate might
be canceled, but in consideration of his' ef
forts to save life, it should, only berevoked
for two years. John Brown, the fourth offi
cer, is to be suspended three months for
disobedience of orders.
Notice is given that the postal cards will
be issued on the Ist of May, after which
they will be on sale at all the leading post
offices. These cards are an innovation in
this'country, but as they will afford penny
postage for a large class of corresOndence,
they will in time.become popular with the
public and profitable to the Government.—
That they will immediately come into gen
eral use cannot be expected, as they do not
secure that privacy to mail communications
to 'which we have been accustomed; but
they will certainly grow in favor—because
of the saving in postage—for receipts, ac
knowledgments, invitations, orders, and
other correspondence of business and ' social
life, whore such publicity as they occasion
will not be a matter of concern.
The late accounts of the earthquake at-
San Salvador confirm the reports of the en
tire destruction of. the city. One solitary
edifice of wood was left uninjured. The
only other buildings not completely leveled
miththe earth were the 'Government House
and the Hotel de Parquo, both built of stone.
Fifty corpses were east up from their graves
in the neighboring cemetery, and lay till
morning—companions of the dead among
the ruins. More than 50 dead find 150
wounded had been gathered from the debris
of the town; and although the loss of life
from the earthquake wa probably not as
extensive as it was at first said to be, it was
so great, and the destruction so complete,,
as to inspire wonder at' the temerity of the
authorities Ache, had resolved to rebuild the
city on of site Which has been afreeted by'
eight serious earthquakes since theyear 1575.
