It is claimed by some Democrats that , their puty U the ''wcrkingtuan's par ty." One might suppose from the-im-jmrtunate clack F small politicians vwliosc. capacity is just about iequal to such an idea, that the Democratic party ,etnbracGs most, of the workinsmoai of .the country, and that the llepubliean party .is hostile to all the interests,; cf ; labor. It is a; well established fact, however, that the principal strength of tho Republican party is and always has been amonj the industrial classes, y In the rural districts, in the thrifty por tions of the North and Kast, in all parts of the country where intelligent and skillful laborJ abounds,' there the llepubliean party, is very strong" and carries all before it. Go, however, to the great cities, to tho .hauuta ofj idle vDCss and vice," to thetlcnse populations who live in any way but by steady, hon est labor, and there the Democratic par ity has its chief strength ; there itcouots on its greatest an i surest majorities. Who does not know that this is true ? According to the New York World tf he Democratic party is great on voting ignorant masses; it might have added .that its party is- great tu voting idle inasses, too. Democrats probably claim to be a "workingnjn's party" because sthcir political demagogues are so for ward iq talking about the hardships of labor, and in proposing various absurd tund chimerical schemes for men tp live jn violation of the first Jaw of their be ing that Is without work. This is about all they have to rest their claim jpf being a "workiograan's party" upon And this is too shallow a pretense to catch the votes of intelligent working men ; hence the Democratic party throughout the cgun try finds itself con ,tinua!ly in a minority. Singular Phenomenon. On Fri day night last the ; residents of the ixjrthem part of town witnessed a show, er that was, at least, remarkable, and so tar, has not been explained. It was raining hard at tho time, with little or no wind, when a peculiar substance was discovered to be settling down with the rum. In color and appearance, it re sembled flower of sulphur, and some who tasted it pronounced it to be that Bubstance, but Mrs. O. J, Oarr showed us that such was not the case: she Collected a quantity which was floating . on the water caught in a barret, and - patting it on tho fire it burned without yny oi tnc suipnar lumes. ims strange shower continued for an hour or more. and" fell in. such quantities as to be plainly seen on sidewalks and floating on all the standing water.. Some of it fell as far up town as Marion Square, where it was observed by Mrs Cullow, but the heaviest was seen in the neighborhood of Mr. J. E. Strong's. Unfortunately, no attempt was made to collect any oi the mysterious substance ..at first, but we hive a small quantity that stood sometime on a water barrel, and , if any one whb ean, will ascertain the analysis, they are welcome to the specimen. Such occurrences are by no means unknown, but they are far from being common in these parts. Stales- man. - f Taxation of ..Church Property, The question 'as to whether the town lots in a Uhnrch yard which arc not ac tnally coverd by the Church buildings, are liable to taxation, was argued be"- fore Judge Upton, in chambers, yester day, in the case of The First Raptis Church of Portland vs. Albert Zeiber, Sheriff of Multnomah ounty. The law of this State says that houses of worship and the lots on which 'they stand, when used for religious purposes only, are exrmpt from tnxatiou. The enclosure in which' the Ilaptist Church stands coniprises lour town lots, on one of which the Church edifice stands the Assessor assessed the oljhcr three as liable to be taxed. The case above mentioned was brought to restrain the Sheriff - from collecting sueh'tax The case is a new 6n2, the question having never been raised before in this State, and as most, if not all, the Churches in this city owning lots which are used as Church j yards, desired a test case for all, this has excited considerable inter est. Mr. C. C. Ball arpeared on be Tialf of 1 the Baptist Church, and ex Governor A. C. Gibba on the part of the Sheriff After hearing the . arguments of the counsel, ; the Court ordered that the Sheriff be re Btraincd until farther "orders a3, the final decree of the Court cannot be Kivcn until the regular term time. But the question may be regarded as fin ally settled. v Oregon Democratic papers will never ceaso bragging about "great gains" in Connecticut, a State in which their pjrty has elected the Governor by 732 majority, against 1,765 majority for the same persons two years ago. The Port land organ has- had something like n dozen "leaders," moro or less, on this promising ubject, and doubtless will iurnish many more. . ' ! llrevitics. Persia tinS 4 called Old Krack witz. Economy is the easy chair of old age.-' "A fat man's ticket was run at a re cent t Iowa election,' but it got very lit tle support. A ecu tlemnn asked a friend, in a knowing injmucr, ''Pray, did you ever sec a. pat-tish !" ''No,", wa3 the res ponse, ' but I've seen a rope-walk." A yankee editor remarks that he has ately seen a.cpuple of sisters who had to be told everything together, for they could not be told apart. A Western contemporary thinks that women would not make good statesmen, because the "question of the ase" wouid always trouble them. A XetpfiYorkj hotch reently startled its guests by putting ,fm ice pie" in the bill of fare:1';; Investigation proved that miuee;pie was intended. v Ike's last trick was to throw Mrs. Partington's old gaiter into the alley, and call the old lady down from the third floor to see an ulligaitcr. Josh Rillincs says: " Love is sed tew bo blind; but 1 know lots of phcl- lows in love who can see twice az moch in their sweet-hearts az I kan." The members of the Mississippi Legislature are economical in one re spect, at least, lliey have voted them selves one dollar a year each for post age. . .
