.... jjjyy gQtild not ’ bolievo in a bettor way, / andhenco havo fought with jaiglit and

main against tho ideas andonoroachments pf their morelibeml Northern brethren.

lin t a how light is dawning. Becopt events, made mbro pregnant. with the

„ results of the lost oloction, havo shown that a unified South against the rest of tho Union -in sentiment and principle, was not in accord with our national oner ness, neither would it induce a healthy growth in that seotion of the country in which too long for thdir own good sec tionalism and its attending evil ‘ results have kept" aloof thoso who would Jiavo benefited them.

A convention has rocontl^ boon sitting *- a t Montgomery, Ala., haVing for its ob

ject an organizod effort to induce immigration from tho North. I t is never too late to make amepds for past^rrors, and it is to bo sincerely hoped that the futilo efforts of the ldifctwbn^ tbrb-pstablisli the former regime of vassalage

. has brought its lesson of wisdom.- Personal rights and full froedbta under

' ourt?overnmont, have passed to a period from which there is no return, and the question uppermost is to assimilate an el-

V emenfc, changgd/rom one position to the othor, so as to bring about the best good

- to all. The people of tho South aro beginning to realize that it is time to throw off their formor lethargy and to take on more enterprise such as has given impetus and distinction to other ports of our country. .

We sincerely cherish the hopo that a now era is dawning on our brethron of the South. Could thoy but cast off their -own oxolusivonoes and admit -all - classes of society on the same terms as.are found at the Northj there would bo no cause for the cry of sectionalism, envy or malice. Let tho good work goT~forward.

JTlie age is progressive, and why not this century; so near its olpso, seo the closer

- drawing of every section of our Union into,a consolidation of.sentiment and reciprocity, deep, .pototifcâii'd ' abiding as the ages?.

At the caucus of the Democratic^mom- bors-olect of the Now Jersey Legislature* hold recently in New York, tlio general

—-work of the winter was outlinocLl_ILrin" eluded the rodistriotmg of tho State so as to insnro a Democratic Legislature

for all time to comb^’ thp repeal of tho looal-option part of tho high/Iioenfie-local, option law, thb ropeal of the,-jiiiy commission law and tho~re-invefltment of the Governor with certain appointive powers

: „ of which ho was divested last winter.All time to comp” , is a loner period/

and is in'conflict with the plafls „pf _fcho Prohibitionists, jpiowover, the redistrict-, ing of tiie State is a. political matter of

• comparatively small concern to the average citizon. ^Cho r6poal of the jurycom-

-:a—jnieaion iiotrwould be a calamity to the Stato', capoomlly if tho old mothod of selocting jurors was restored. There weijo localities where/ previous to this year, it was absolutely" impossible to obtain justice in cases of violation of the. liquor laws. ^Respectable citizens might complain until they were tired and offl-

‘ f 'Cials insolently laughed at them; Democratic shorifls selected grand jurors favor-

: felo to the liquor interest and on ordinary evidence they would refuse to indict. I f tho evidence brougli^fdrwft|d. xcitiz<^ or law and oi^der Bobioties was" too over-, whelming to be ignored then a Democratic prosecutor, would .manage- to fratno a defective "indictment that would bo thrown out of court by a friendly Judge, or, if it came to trial, the sheriff had provided a panel; of petit jtirots suitable for the ocosion, and rum would bome out on top. /Where every officer of* the court .—judgo, prosooutor, grand and .petit jurors And constables—-was in 'sympathy

^ •

with lawless rumsellers, how could justice bp expected ? Tho jpry commission law ohanged this and mado it possible for good men to get on grand, and petit jurios. Tho change, though but just inaugurated, has proved most beneficial. A “ packed” jury, "undor this syBtbin is about impbssiblo, and those 'wlio Tiave' thb right upon" thoir mdohavb mubH l i ^ ' to fear than under the old ‘regime.

There' aro thousands of Democrats in New Jersoy who do not belipve.that rum rules their party J there is n chance that this winter w ilftur- nish them abundant evidence to tEb'cdnr trary, an,d ^Vhon it appears thoro will-bo thoijsands who will "leave the. ranks to savo thoir manhood and teach thoir leaders alesaon.* - ^ ■■ ' .

T h e S i tu a t io n .In tho political field of NeWv Jersey

thoro is biiP pYop osition that grows dearer every'day: Upon tho courso of tho coming Legislature dbpends tho rooult of thb gubornatorial.election noxt fall.

I t may bo superfluous to remark that Now, Jersoy ia Dombci'atio. I t is not tliat tho Democratic majority is so large, for it is only a triflo over two per cent, of the entire vote-; but the Btubborn fact is that this trifling majority js exceedingly tenacious, and ‘ stays * right there year after year. Nothing but a popular revulsion over materially oliangos it, and these revulsions havo never in recent years occurred when a President or Governor was to be elooted. Two years ago the infamous Domocratio Legislature was tho means’of ‘disgiiMiig thpusandsôf Democrats, and, in consequence, last year’s legislative body was Btrongly Republican. Again the samo conditions oxiift, but now tho influence is likely to reach the, Governor's chair.

In tho coming Legislature there will -bo a Democratic majority. That majority waa seoured in the rum districts fry making tho repeal of Republioan temperanco laws tho g?eat issue of the campaign. In tho .first jubilation of sucoes^tho.legisla- tbraTelebli’ from thesbl!dlstri6tS declared tiieir intention of sweeping.^ from the statute books every vestige of these ob^ noxious laws.h Tliey did “not comprehend tlio situation. Local option had been adopted alreadyin four , counties, ono of wlueh0Bonds a solid Democratic delegation to ’jTrpntonT For onco these and many othor Domocruts ’ dropped their party and declared that tho local option- high license law was a goodmoasQjo and must stand, or, at least, ita main features should not be changed, h Herb was trouble at onco, and in tho weeks that have elapsed since the November oloction, the cloud in the Democratic horizon has not diminished. The Democracy is divided and through this division there is likely to bo somo interesting times at Trenton this winter. I f wise counsel prevails local option will not be seriously tampered with, but the Democracy will be weakened thereby in Essex, Hudson, Passaic and some other quarters ; if rnm comes to the front, udos its lash in caucus and carries out tho threat made by Essex members, thero will he a “ bear gardon” at Tronton that will rival' tho noted one oM 887rand in tho Domooraoy will loseits grip on New Jersey for 1889. Thon if a man liko Henry M. Nevius, of Monmouth, heads the Republican ticket next fall, January, ,1890, will see hjm seated iu the Governor’s chair.

Fallen in His Own Party.If the eight or nine columns printed

in the New York World of last Friday of the opinions of his party-concerning MiC Cleveland aro. any criterion, there is tho most indubitable evidence that he never was fitted for the big!* position he occupied in his party .....

Presidont Cleveland' was' an apoidont That as an accidental President he could not rise to the requirements of his position even) the bettor, men in his party, and those who were not hold to fealty by reward or hope bf roward, saw, and realized that in liim thoy had made the grossest of blunders. - V

‘The greater blunder, however, was in permitting his henohmen to carry his banner with suOh resistless force into thp St. Louis Convention. The absenoe of a national leader, ono who could have commanded the highest respect of thb best men in the party, gave his officebearers a great advantage. . . . .

They little knew the deep undercurrent of dislike and distrust that had set against the aspirant for renewed honors, and but for tho sake of tho party which had juat rehirned tb powpr, there would havo boon even a jnnch greater revolt. I t was a terribly sacrifice to make—thp banishment o/ the party to another quarter century or more of political annihilation. • ■ ’ - <

These 'reasons were a t once; the moat cogent and conclusive as given in tho IVorlil. lh i brief : Ho is a mugwump; he is a hypocrite on tho Civil Service ; ho is not a straight party man ; heîs too English, you ,know ;’ho is too, friendly to Southern brigadiers; ho vetoed foo many pension s ; ho is popriy equipped for his phtco ; too stubborn antfconceited j kept an 'ola Ifossil in the State d'e- partment; fished on Memorial J)ay ; believed in free trade j ignored the • big men in his party ; false to his principles ; showed ingratitude to tho workers; of doubtful loyalty, and many other arraignments that show that he was Neither a man of his party nor a man with the peo- p ie./

The fact has become, mosfi glaringly apparent [that the National Capitai has never boforo been • so poorly provi/le<l with a head as during tiie last four years. Lacking ail knowledge of governmental affairs, he yet Jiad the stubborn audacity to push himself,as a ^ rea tile^ e r on reforms. Even th^ greatest of our znpn have approached these questions, w i% tho ' greatest concern. The idea"of a Civil Servioo seform from a man whp

Bcarooly know tho -way to Washington j or thp regulation of our revenues advocated £y a man whp sbarcely knew tho first operation of a tw*iff, was gropoeter- ons in the extremb. •/' • ;1 The gra^t wonder is that so many Intelligent inOU voted for him Imowing his unfitness. irOT^bnljrbFnooounted for tliatih’ him 'thoy fonnd the' only *avail“ able candidate, ono on whom they relied for another accidental victory, f

Among tiie reforms suggested in this Stato is the abolishing of boards of TProe- holdors and substituting therefor a board of three County Cojmmipioriers^fbrêaoh county. Thja modeof managing county affairs prevails iu mây Stages,and is entirely satisfactory. Our(\)oajds aremueh, too oumbersomo, and three Commissioners, giving all their time to the work, would bo bettor for tho interests of the county. ,• . ; . ~ , 1 ;■_ -i,---------------- -—: ; ' *

JuBt as The J ournal intimated soon after-eloction, Gen. Harrison will listen quietly an#! patiently to those whose ad- vieb'is worthy and who have a right to speak, but ho will bide his time in takifag action and in giving to the pubjio an o u t line of his .decisions.

The Republicans in the United States Sonate are pressing action on the now tariff schedule. They havo decided in caucus do continue in session with a brief holiday recess until tho bill is disposed of. If there is to bo an omission, they intend the responsibility shall .be with tho Domocratio House."

Tho man I called upon was a slim, blno oyod chap, who sold daily papers, candy, cigars, stationery, toya and all sorts of knick- knacks, and run a watch and clock doctoring counter l?osides. Wo .fell to talking about the tr jc k s 'p f tho trade; how churges .were

' . mado, fo r triv ial derdngemonts, and how prices wero charged, not In proportion to tho work performed* bub according to how much tho wutchmakor th o ugh t ho could..collect To mako a long story short, that slim, blue

v oyed watch tinkce ond I entered into a com-■ pact to test the honesty of the watchsmltha

of Boston, and X was to -tako m y w atch around town, a n d -boo w hat ailed it. I paid him fo r cleaning tho interior o f tho watch

f and then started out. .My first vcnturo was in a 'little store on

■ W ashington Btreot. A broad - shouldered youth, w ith a dark facoând a bjg nosof-toflk] oft th e s is ter of m y pfo, lifted up its sh irt and looked in. Tho scrutiny'waa long and thorough. . ; . ,

“ Your watch Is ve ry d irty ,” said 'be. “ I . must cloan i t boforo 1 can ropair. it.” >This

* information was very consoling to mo fo r the reason th a t I had ju s t paid m y^nonoyfortho cleaning. Still,. I consented, and dophrtod w i th a “ chedk” in m y hand.

In throe days I callod again. ItHvas done... Tho roller pin was broken. I t was necessary

to put in a new ono. That was $1.60. Tho cleaning was $1, .making tbo to tal $2.G0. I paid tho bill dndw ent back to m y bluo oyod down caster. Ho looked a t tho watch.

“ W hat did you pay fo r thia job!” ho asked. “ Two fifty." I

. “ Howl W hat for?*“ I t waa dirty ; th a t cost tL , Tho roller pin

was gone?^Bfcew ono cost $1.60 moro,”Tho man was mad. I f I told you ju s t w hat

ho said, thero would be joy In shool over tho fac t th a t a soul-was lost. H o took ' out tho roller pin and showed i t to mo. I t was an

• ordinary brass pin such as you can buy for five conts ft paper in "any storp of Boston.

‘ Tho head had been filed off. 5 Also tho point. %B ut tho pin was thero and it bad cost mo $1.50.

* -I thought i t was a p r^ tty good profit on the Investment. -•

“ Can you nlTgjrd to try them againP’ asked t m y jowolor.

“ Y es; g o ahead .”Ho lifted up tho hairspring, hitched i t over

tho movement and told me, to go. I wont. I w ent blundering into a storo on Tromont

' street. . '. “ W hat ails itf” asked I. : ‘ \

Tho old m an a t the desk p u t on his eyo'glqsa, took o u t a pair of tweezers, and in a second- tho watch was going.

“ Nothing,” said be. .; “ W hat’s the bill?”

“ N o t a cent.” ; " ' - . .., ,V... I <pioosapu^fcho-spring bapk whor©4t was

t boforo,” said 1 Ho rofused, and I had to go back to my old friend, who hitched u p the hairspring . Then Ijw o tit io a storo near

.« Pnrkîinra.nnd.passod out tho watch again. Ho laughed a t it.' “You havo got a bad IroUcr pin,” said bo.

“ I know it, but a brass pin is good enough fo r mo. I think m y ha ir spring is broken.” Hp pcopod again.

“ I t is. Yon must leave tho watch w ith m o uiitil Saturday, whon I w ill havo a now-ono.”*

“ Wlirtt will tho bill bo*” ■. -“ About $ 2.50”“AU right.? I got around the coma*, saw

.him tako his tweezers and lif t up the Spring,- saw him grin a $2.50 srailo, and thon I went

away. When I camo Saturday ho was ready fo r mo. —A fter I had paid tho bill ho said:

‘.‘Y our watch was vory dirty. 1 havo , cleaned i t u|> for you,'fmfc will not chargo

you anything.” When I told him th a t I had seen him lif t up tho spring and p u t tho watch’

.. -on tho rack ho got mod and said I wnsapoli- J-ician and called mo other names which I did

• "not like. I asked him to comeout nnd fight.Ho would not accept. As ho had tho monoy,1 I could seo nothing for mo to do bu t submit. I submitted o f courso.

W hen I talked i t over w ith my friend bo said ho would try a now dodgo and b o o how i t worked. I t was ra ther oxpensivo, b u t tbo

"canso of scienCoiwas'at stako and tho sacrifice was worthy- of tho objoct. Ho tb^k out the whole internal arrangements, so I could bco tho bnckbono and kidnoysof m yw dtcb. This done, ho carefully removed ono of tho jewels

‘ from tho under sido of tho movement and put tho works back again. My watch was dead, I wont to a smith on Hurrispn avonuo.

. Ho told mo just w hat Hilcd m y watch and said It/would cost 83 for euro. AH* right. Hq could go ahead. When I Jtoolr -my watch back to ray partner In th'o secret X was in-

. formed th a t tho man had put Tn a nico joWCl, -*■ as good as tho old ono, and tha t Lhad paid

a fa ir price fo r tho j6b . , .-I was not satisfied. Again ho removed tho

jowol, and again I wont out, th is tim o to another m an on W ashington streot. Horo I learn od that' a jowcl Was gone, anil th a t it would cost mo ?2 for a now ono. Ho looked hungry, and so ho got tho job. Two days lator I returned to my frftnd \yith tho watch. Ho'dissected the job. Tho placo lately occu pied by a jewel was filled by a b it pf tin with a hole in i t Tho watch was going, b u t in a

, fow weeks it would stop, and I should havo to contract another bill. 1 took tho watch back to tho man wbp bad mado tho tin jowol,. and said; _ U

“ I forgot to mention ■ it, bu t I think my,- watch is dirty . Will you clean it?”

“Yes, i t is dirty;” said'llo, with a happy look iu,his face, “but I did no t feel liko doin^ -

Aiu. Whon ho saw J tha t my friend had replaced tho jowol. ho looked blank. 7:, ** “ W hat do you think of it?” I asked. . " “Think? w hy, 1 th ink i t isd ir ty .”

“ But how about tliat jewel you p u t in?” -s - “ Hero i t is,” said ho, pointing to tho jowol

my friend had placed thero instead or tno tin , “and it is a fino oho, too.” • I le t o u t n t him. I f ho had been possessed jtfLany spark, of courago ho would havo com olout aud Whipped mo then and thero. B ut ho was a cow ard,. and would hot figh t W hat was still worso ho would not give up tho money.

My friend broke tho main spring this tipno. I t was n o t much of a job, and ho did not tako

„• off Over mi inch, which stopped tho,. watch, and tha t was enough. Au old follow a t the W est End was my next vicfim. Ho know w hat ailed tho' watch a t a glance. Thomain- spring was broken. A now ono would .cost him fifty cents. ‘ I t was ^wor th fifty cents to

“ p u t i t in, o r $ l inalL .‘ -• r “ 0 . K .,” said I,Two,days after this! m y friend and I were

looking over my watch. From tw o or threo peculiar fllomarks on tho spring wo knew a t once th a t all ho had done was to shorten up $ho old spring and mako it servo fo r a: now one, which was tho work o f nob' o v e r ja minute. That W est End shop was $1 ift. -

_By this timo m y hdventures among tbo w atch men woro pretty woli kuown. I tr ie d m y old dodges and soveral now ones on perhaps half a dozen, but tho men told mo tho real troublo ond charged ino a fair prieo, so I had no reason for finding-"fault.

' they por form this duty with considerable zeal. Each passongor Is allowod sixteen inches of space, and as a rulo Cvepy Londonor will insist on his sixieon inches., ..

Tho ra te of omnibus faro is ‘ something likfl- n penny (two cents) a milo on somo lines and less .than tha t on others, You cah'rido, from tho A lbert memorial in Hydo P ark, ettst- ward, to Regent Circus, nearly two-miles, for two conts, but thoro is also a halfpenny ’bus. From Charing Cross to and ‘ over Westminster bridgo, you can rldo for one cent, in fact th a t sum Ib th e only fa re ehargod on this lino. Tho vehicle carrics just ton passongors, so tha t tho company recoivcs ton cents for each trifJ. Tho ’buses s ta rt full from each terminus nnd seldom pick up passengers on tho way.

tho delightful veteran ac to r who has ju s t loft us, William W arren, of Boston, ho to ld rad a story’ of himself tha t b c o mod to mo a finer' .piece of dignified hum ility than anything ho bad oyer ohactcd on tho boards. A fter tbo death of a well .known Bostonian, somo years sinco, Mr. W arren, who had been ono of his“ friends, was invited to bo a pall boarer a t tho funeral. “On going to tbo placo appointed,” ho said, “ I lcahied for tho first tlmo th a t my companion in tho funeral procession was to bo Hr. Robert C. Winthrop. I wont a t onco to the gontlorann who had chargo of the a rrangements, ttnd said to him decisively, ‘This must n o t bo! Tho thing is utterly Inappropriate.—Mr, W iutlirop is an hislorlc cbanuK ter; ho boars an historic name, and has added dignity tp it by his own career. I am a strolling actor; tho Boston public is accustomed to soeing me in allm anner of grotesquo costurnos and ludicrous positions. I should bo wholly out of placo' bbsido M r!'W inthrop on an occasion liko this, and evcr^y one who lobked on us would feel i t as I do.’ Accordingly, the arrangem ent was completed.” When I osketT“ Did Mr. W luthrop over kn6w> about th is circumstance?*’ bo said, thoughtfully, “ I cannot say, bu t I suspect th a t bo did.... The noxt timg wo m et in tho street, ho raised his hat to mo with g reat courtesy, although wo woro not previously acquainted, arid wo mot, with tho' samo greeting, several times afterward.-” - • • •

I am fa r from thinking th a t this pioco of gonerouH solf humiliation was needed, but whether it wns or not, how flno tho situation, how'nlmosb Shakespearian tho recognition 6f a. subtle human propriotyi Who does not liko to think of tliesotw o men of 'similar years nnd dissimilar lives, bo th such Woll known figures on tho streets of Boston, and passing cach other from day to day with.thlsv silent and dignified greeting,;as expressive as tho ceremonious Bnuff box of colonial times. Y et surely thoro is KomcthiUg-curious npd almost tindesirablo in a profession which can' suggest to ono of its most honored ornaments such self depreciation pa th ia A blacksmith," a shoemaker, would havo had no such fooling, but would havo walked sido by sido with tbo inoet em inent citizen without any thought ofi incongruity, so strong is tho forco of ro-. publicah institutions. Can it bo that, as an actor once pointed out to mo, men o f his vo* cation -very rarely voto, and so feel themselves no. pa rt of tlw.political^ communityf— Ilaiper’s Bazhr.
