IhiS'lBV- i-' oa n TiAtr-fnofir lnfn cffiffi politics- The th.rd party m dra r0l jth the Bepublican and Demo- cra .c rants; probably more from the nner than the latter, for it seems to be a Republican characteristic to buck and bolt tho ticket on general principles wlieuever a new ism heaves in sight. Tho American people have, by a sort of inevitable necessity, divided into two groat and dominant parties Federal and Tory in the earlier days sot tho republic; "Whig and Demo cratic later; Democratic and Republi can now. This division leaves no place for an organized third party. Such a party has never been, and never can be, a success. Some local question may carry enough people to temporary organization to secure a local and temporary triumph, but it is necessarily shortlived. Between I the two crreat political national 1 parties there is always a large float ing vote, composed of quiet, conserva tive, non-partisan people, sometimes not voting at all, again voting which ever side may, in their individual judgment, best conserve tho public interest This non-partisan floating element is composed of the best men of the nation, usually intelligent, rep resenting tho property of the country, non-office seeking, and not easily moved to onthusiasm by any ordinary political event It forms the balance wheel that controls the executive movement of party machinery. It is the vote that both parties are con stantly looking to to strengthen their organization and snpport their candi dates. Party nominating conventions are looking to this vote and bidding for it It places political parties upon their good behavior, and keeps them amesurably honest whilo in office. When a party becomes too strong it becomes insolent, it abuses its power, it plunders and robs with ruthless hand. Instance the Democratic par ty under Tweed in New York; in stance tho Republican party under Grant's second term. Now and then this great middle class swings over to the one or the other side, and when it does move it moves with the power of a glacier and the swiftness of a tor nado. To whichever side this voto goes there comes a victory, as when the log-cabin and hard-cider cam paign swept Van Buren out of polit ical existence; as when tho Demo cratic tidal wave of '74 rebuked the Babcocks and Bolknaps of Grant's favorites. Party organization seems to bo a ne cessity. It carries with it a responsi bility greater than the individual can feel, but no third party can bo per manently successful. NEW TO-DAY. Wing Lee Co.

It is kuown that tin s, in case ot a leaking vessel, sometimes charge au exorbitant rate for service, and it occurred to the captain of the Buriny Brothers that if the condition of bis ship was known he would be heavily charged by the tug, so, when the tnjj came near, all tho crew were c rdcrcd to scatter and appear as though nothing whatever was the matter. The plan succeeded. Captain Master?, after a frier dly dicker with the tnj;, came in under the usual charges, and when the tug was fast to the ship, set the crew again to working the pumas. How that tugboatman felt wbeu he had lost the fortune which was in his grasp, will never bo known. His language, however, is said by 0110 of the crew, to have bean "hawful." 6'. F. Chronicle, 15.
