WHERE WILL IT STOP?
Eking near the common boundary of
Berkshire, and Hampden counties,
Aia ,,, :achusetts, and towering high above
the bed of the Farmington River, there
a chain of precipices of naked granite
ri•,ing sheer from the river bed, of a
mile or more in extent, and terminating
at it Southern extremity in a beetling
.•liff five or six hundred feet high. This
mighty cliff overhangs its base about
t-ixty feet. Its top is strewed with granite
boulders of all shapes and sizes, vary,
in_ from a hundred weight to one hun
dred tons.
The boys will at once recognize in
this brief description a capital field for
rolling stones. Children of considerable
•frowth have 'o recognized it in the past,
..nd'sl ill so recognize it. Once upon a
anr a farmer, whose house was under
;he shadow of this cliff, conceived the
project of setting in motion a big bould
(r on the summit. He ,shouldered his
crowbar one day, and climbed up the
•aouthern declivity. Reaching the sum
mit he prepared to disturb the inertia of
the•boulder, weighing some forty tons,
and in a brief space of time had the sat
isfactionbfbeholdingit slowly approach
ing the edge of the precipice. This
boulder,-if it should roll direct, - would
inevitably thunder its way into the river.
The farmer so expected it to roll; but
as it leaped from the verge, and went
with a great rushing noise downward
through the air, it struck a projection
from the base, and shot with fearful
velocity in an oblique direction toward
his barn: Down the steep, granite
strewn declivity it thundered, and
through the barn it went with a terrible
crash, leaving but a mass of splintered
timbers in its track.
This incident is brought vividly to
mind by the course of the leading Cop
perhead papers in the North. The Chi
eligo Times, one of the ablest and bitter
e•?t of its claw, not limg ago declared in
favor of negro suffrage, and enforced its
declaration with argument always di
rect if not altogether catholic and can
did.
The Boston Pose took up the argument
and endorsed its conclusions frankly
and fully. The chief argument was
that without the full enfranchisement
of the negro he could not be got out of
polities ; and if ho were riot soon gotten
out of politics, the Democratic party
must die; therefore, the true policy of
the Democracy was to accept the situa
tion, take,a step in advance of the Re
publican party, and-decl,are for Univers
al Suffrage: '
This may he considered a selfish ay.
merit, and such it is. But men who put
party above mankind must he selfash l .
It was the setting of the hall in motion ;
and with this initial fact we have to do.
The National lntelligeneer•, the Presi
de nVs Washington organ pi:fretted/mice,
and its tender, the National Republican,
followed in the-wake of the bold editor
of the Chicago • paper. They accepted
the -ituation, and declared that the
President had taken the same ground
long before.
Meantirrie, the small fry newspapers
of that stripe, kicked and scolded.—
They had belabored the negro so lustily
during the campaign, and excited such
fears in the breasts of their readers
t ouching negro equality, that they found
it most embarassing to ; swallow their ra
vings with a' great gulp, and take the
brother from Africa to their heaving
bosoms. But by easy gradations they
de , eended from their stilts somewhat.
The Philadelphia Ape, the leading Cop
erhead paper in Pennsylvania recently
mentioned the fact that a colored man
had been elected to the legislature in
Massachusetts, and at once heartily en-
domed the election. The editor went
on to say: ".We believe that the
,color
of the skin is no badge of dishonor, and
when qualified by education to hold the
ballot • the man should be eligible to
office." Thus the ball receives new
impetus azi it passes from west to east,
and the only serious question presented
• is , .—WHERE WILL. IT STOP?
The intelligent reader will at om:f:. rec
ognize the parallel existing between
the Berkshire farmer's action and that
of the Chicago Times. The farmer did
not intend to destroy his harm.; The
Chicago Editor did not intend to tlYstroy
his party. But since his party has ex
isted for years by tvirtueof tlie prejudices
it has intensified against the colored
race, we cannot see how the destruction
of these prejudices can result in any
thing 1.. s than thit extinction of the
party which :has king drawn its life
from them.
In fact, the ob , ierverof - political affair.
'during the last ten years will not tail to
see that this eonce ,, ,ion of- the elective
franchise to the despised African by his
heretoforb enemies, 4 a completa aban
donment of the distinctive -party tenets ,
-which they clung to. a ii giVng up
of the entire struggle on their part ; and
a -virtual disbanding of the Democratic
part•.
So, while it is comparatively au euhy
matter to set a ball rolling, it is not easy
to determine -its final direction, or to
prevent the destruction which is liable
to ensue should any obstruellon deflect
it from the course rilarkeli out. The
man who tipped the boulder over
the precipice did not more, certainly
destroy his own property than the-Cop
perh er.d leaders have foredoomed Trt kin
PARTY.

BURNING OF THE' NEW IRONSIDE.—
The mammoth war steamer New Iron
sides lying at League Island took fire
last Saturday night, and was entirely
destroyed. The dames are said to have
originated near ofin the engine room,
by the upsetting of a stove. One of the
watchmen stated that he and one or tvP
others endeavored to extinguish tjo
flames when they broke out. Findi , g
that it was impossible to do so, wd
was sent the commanding officer, 'crib
dispatched a courier to the Command:it
of the Navy-Yard, who, upon the gni
val of the dispatch, ordered steams' to
be got up on the United States tu,boat
Pilgrim. A detatchment of 40 Wines
were ordered on board, and in les , than
an hour from the time the collier ar
rived the tug was alongside of the
ill
fated Ironsides. She immediatlY com
menced throwing streams of witer upon
the burning vessel with but title or no
effect. The fire burned tierces', and at
o'clock Sunday morning rile flames
shot up through the flooritg, and in
less than three hours the silos fell in
and the famous war steamer, together
with her valuable maehintry, was re

tug and steamers then withdrew. The

Messrs. Cramp & Sons In Philadel

and sailed Sept. 22, 1882, for Charleston
