H.. ! forth the order that everybody J i ha.' a seat in the present Congress Democrat as well as Rcj ublican should be re-elected. It was the machinery which nominated Poland in Vermont, Garfield and Parsons in 'Ohio Tinflpv in APww1mnf a -.l j U1UO UUUei 111 l-latIlUse,t3, ailtl ; salary-crrabbers and Credit-Afobilier- ites in other places. The machinery ; luis brought out the loud-sounding Kelley in Pennsylvania. The ma chinery is for Matt Carpenter in Wis consin. The machinery support Kellogg in Louisiana and Chamber lain, the former "pal" of Moses, the "Robber Governor," in South Caro lina. Rut not only does the machi nery support the bail, but it punishes the good. It defeated Will.ird for the nomination in Vermont, because he had the ncrvo to oppose the sala- , , , , , r, v'-gi-ab and to denounce the Credit Mobilier. It ha-j accepted Walter I' helps in ew Jersey, who has not Jlinched in ooposing misrule, because . , , , . ,7 . . it cannot help itself but it tried to beat him. If we examine into the machinery wo will find that it is principally composed of the ofHee-holdiiig class, i Kepublican America has to-day m re , civil servants than the grandest em pire of them all. It has more office : holders than Germany or Russia. Wo ' are far ahead of England. The full : strength of the bread and butter army is said to bo S' 1,000 against i)o,owu in j-mgiami ami o.,utu in ' ' (!crm. any. Ihcse are thomachiucrv for the most part. And that machinery ' has neither a conscience nor a soul. , If it is amazed at anything it is the ; audacity of the people in daring to inqniro into its actions. If the Re I publican party is to be judged by its machinerv it would f.-ivo lullv in rhr eves of the world. Rut bad Rc,ml- 1 licans havo been pun shed. Poland, ! the author of the gag-la has been ! . i i , , -n j , ! beaten in Vermont; the majority of Garfield has boon reduced from 11,- vvv to .J,;oo; l'arsons, who was a 1 l i iriii lesser criminal, was defeated; Ren I Rutler is in danger; Kelley is not j j yet elected. Of tho thirty-six mem- ! bers of tho Forty-second Congress who returned their backpay, nine have been re-elected; of tho two hundred and seven who kept their back-pay, only one so far has been returned. Rut these results have in every instance been accomplished by j Republicans acting in opposition to j and outside of the Republican part-, j All this simply proves that while j the machincrj of the party has be come rotten and corrupt tho masses ot the Republicans arc unaffected. They have punished Republican rogues in defiance of the party or ganization. Tho argument, there- i j fore, is one that cannot be used with an7 degree of propriety bv tho partv ! hacks. It is, on the contrary, the j argument of all arguments which tbcj siicuitl avoiJ because it con- . . tains their condemnation. S. V.

THE FIRST THOUSAND DOLLARS. The first thousand dollars that a young man, after going out into the world to act for himself, earns and save3 will generally settle the ques tion of business life for him. There may be exceptions to this statement: yet, for a rule we think that it will hold true. The first condition is that the young man actually earns the thousand dollars in question. lie does not iuherit this sum. It does not come to him by a streak of good te lesuu oi a lortuuato m venture in tue purcjiase aim siuo oi a hundred, shares of of stock.

The direct consequence to him is steady, j democrats in the next Congress, ho continuous, and solid discipline in i Relieves, will avow their principles the habits of industry in patient, persistent, forecasting and self-denying effort, breaking up all the ten dencies to indolence and frivolitv. and making him an earnest and wfr.tchful economist of time. He not only learns how to work, but ho al so acquires the love of work; more- over he learns the value of the sum his which hd has thus saved out of earnings. He has toiled for it; he has thus observed its kIow increase from time to time; and in his esti mate it represents so many months ; or years of practical labor.

A "Wash ington special to the 'Inlcr-Orran&nyti Attorney General Williams, in con versation to-dav, savshe believes the Xolitical sentiment of the Republi cans ha3 not undergone any perma nent change. There was great dis satisfaction at some measures of the Republican party, and that was de veloped at the recent election. It is an easy thing.ho thinks, to find fault , 111 f I i I lift If IfMlliliitAii 1 1 , 4 ivi mmk i an1 taJi thcir 'Aixml on a!1 tUc lc'm ing issues of the day, and he believes that when the party's position comes to be defined it will fall by it. He has no idea that the Democrats can satisfy the country on these nubjects any better than thcRcpublicans havo done. Grant, he says, feels cheerful over the defeat. The Attorney Gen cralj in speaking of the third term agitation, says he has always be lieved the discussion to bo mere moonshine; that it was nothing more than clap-trap, gotten up for effect on the recent election.

Grant does not seem disheart- ened at the election defeat, but is firmer than ever in adhering to the policy which he has laid down ia his annual messages. The Watch on the Nile.
