The Morning Star. By WILLIA7I II. BERNARD, WILMINGTON, N. C. Thursday Evening, March 8, 1883. EVENING EDITION. EASILY SATISFlED-BEFORn IN 1884. The Republican papers appear to be easily satisfied. They are now surveying the work of the late Con gress, and they conclude that the Re publican party is in a better condi tion than when the 47th Congress be gan its first session. This is indeed very remarkable when we remember that during its term a political cyclone passed over the North, the result of which is seen in the overwhelming majority of the Democrats in the next House. This was brought about by the manifest corruption in that party, and because of the extrava gance and indisposition of that party to relieve the people of the enormous taxes that were oppressing them and sapping the country. These were the main factors in the great defeat that amounted to a revolution. The first session of the Congress witnessed an increase of Government expenses of nearly 75 million dollars. It saw that party forming an alliance with an open repudiationist a man who had been elected, as he declared, a Democrat, and yet he was willing for a certain consideration to desert his party and act with the.eneray. It saw this unholy and disreputable and damning alliance a far worse combination than that charged in the years agone between Mr. Clay and the Adams party Black George and Blifil, according to John Ran dolph, referring to Fielding's novel, "History of a Foundling." It saw all this and more, and yet the Repub lican party is better off now than it was before all this happened. Who with a grain of sense can believe this? The late session has not done much to restore the confidence of the country to that party. In the face of the judgment of the American people as rendered at the polls the Republicans in the Congress were absolutely goarded by the pricks of the Democrats to do something for the relief of the tax-payers. The purpose of the Republicans was clear ly to do nothing to reduce the tariff, but. jatber to increase it. We have quoted time and again from leading Protection papers in which it was admitted that it was their plan to get the internal taxes abolished in order that the high taxes under the tariff might be retained. We copied from a leading Protection paper a paper devoted exclusively to the advocacy, of a high tariff in which it was emphatically declared that if the Republicans had gone to work first to abolish the tax on whiskey, Jbc., that they would have secured the permanency of the high tariff for all time. ' It -was ap parent from this, and for he ap pointing of a packed Commission that the sole purpose of the Repub licans in the Congress was not to - re duce or readjust thft f Morrill, vrar tariff nnder which the cimntr&fbad groaned for over twentylyeara.- The thousands of millions of dollars, ac cording to Prof essor Sumner, of Yale College, lost to the country by this tariff was a mere trifle in the estiraa tion of the Protectionists. The peo ple were to be bled henceforth that a small number might grow rich. Trifr lias been a failure . to meet public expectation. It is true that the discussions during the session forced action and brought about some relief, bat the Republican par ty as such deserves no credit for which was done. The records of Congress show that but for Vance and Beck, Carlisle and Tucker, Mor gan and Lamar, and other able re formers among the Democrats there would have been no start in tariff reform, and the old war tariff with its open robberies and oppressions would have remained riveted upon thf neonle as so manv chains. And x 1 ----- still the Republican papers compla cently announce that their party w left in a better condition at the close of the late Congress than it was in t.li a hcrinninD- of that Congress. It e o - was very bad off, all knew, and it would have been difficult to make its condition worse. It is hard to be lieve that its chances for success in 1884 have been improved by the la bors af the 47th Congress. We find an editorial in the ablest Republican weekly in the country the Philadelphia American that discusses calmly the condition of its party and the outlook. It sees the necessity of a change within and to that end points out certain reforms, In the course of the discussion it says plainly: "A time of sober second-thought set in with the Credit Mobilier disclosures; and the Republican party has had its warning that it must secure a purer leadership or take the consequences. In this respect the Democracy has the advantage. It may be said that its men differ only because they have had le83.opportunity and leas tempta tion. Be it so. Still the country will pre fer sDoliation to SDoiled roods. It will take men Jike Mr. Bayard. Mr. Lamar, Mr. MacDon'ald. Mr! Pendleton. Mr. Hewitt and Mr. Carlisle, in preference' to party hacks and riogsters,' who are distinctly the worse for a prolonged, lease oi piace and power. The Democrats have taken to heart the lessons of political adversity. They have retired to fitting obscurity the men who led the party only to contempt and defeat If the men'who now lead are no better than the Republican leaders gen erally. they at least have the grace to seem . .. r . . . :.: Deuer, woicn goes a greaw way iu puuuw. "It must have a purer leadership." How is this to be secured? Look over the field, and what signs are discovered in the political heavens? Are not the new men electedto the Senate by the Republicans as in ferior as those sent into retirement? Is not Arthur still a power with the party "of high moral ideas" and very disgraceful practices? Cameron and the bosses are only lying low. Tbey are not so beaten that they will not be powerful agents in 1884. So where will the reform come from? What new leadership will spring up? In 1884 you will see the men who were prominent in 1880, also promi nent in the conventions of 1884. You will find that the reign of Plutocracy will be as supreme then as it was in the last Presidential campaign. You will see next year more money used by the moneyed kings, with which to corrupt the people and debauch "the ballot than has ever been known in the history of our country. You will see the most. flagitious and im moral methods employed by the party of boasted intelligence, great wealth and high pretentions in order to secure their ends, and you will find their papers either justifying them or winking at them. We believe that tens of thousands of Republicans in the Northwest who voted for Garfield -will vote for the next Democratic candidate for the Presidency. We believe that they will prefer an honest tax reformer, a firm advocate of economy in public expenditures, and a vigorous op ponent of centralization to a Protec tionist With Hamiltonian leanings. But what ever happens there is no ground for expecting any true re form either in the methods or prin ciples of the Republican party long i tried and found so lamentably want- ! SENATE BEPOBT. It is not without interest to note the report of the Senate Com mittee on Commerce on ' the River and Harbor bills. That Committee is composed of nine members . ma jority - of whom are Republicans. Senator Ransom is of the Commit tee. They all signed a report in which they state that the bill came from :.the House , only forty-eight hours before the close of the session and " that Jit , contained .203 items. Owjng to a want of time and parlia mentary objections it was found im possible o consider these items. And yet it is manifest that the Committee all favoredlne -bill in the main, and LAA-iui.. -I- t . $8,000J000.-JThey wonld not ask for thcanDrotiriations because thev had not been able to make the needed ex- animation in detail. But they - . and it- is very significant: "The importance of the. annual nriation for rivers and harbors can appro , ds of communication hetweetf the different parU t tha .,t,.., ua tiutj afrZi -vp- . i - i tuut securities of commerce acrainst ODDresaive rates of transportation by railroad compa- rVe are deeply impressed with the im portance or continuiog the worita . aua re- ana it.mav jEaieiy j?e saia j"ar -pairs in our rivers and harbors already the equaf of any man in ' tlie':i present commenced and of the danger of great loss General Assembly. - The actioiiof 10 iae uorerDmeoi u iarae wuru arc iu terrupted." So the bill failed. But the Senate Committee did not fail to set forth clearly that they recognized the im portance of the work, and that if it was "interrupted it might prove "of great loss.to tbe Government." Is it not then to be regretted tnat t t.,. n Mfl axa t . take time to provide against such an "interruption" and" such: a "great loss?" The Northern Republican papers rejoiced in tbe prospect of seeing important public works either seriously crippled or so interrupted in their progress as to bring loss upon the Government. The truth is the South would be benefited. Hence the spasm of neglect and economy. If the figures printed in our ex changes are correct the American railroads do not pay very well as in vestments. Tbe census of 1880 places their cost at over four thousand mil lions, and gives their gross earnings at more than 580 millions. Ihis is less than 3 per cent, on their cost. The dividends declared were not more than 2 per cent. Of course some roads paid much" more, and others much less. But are these state ments reliable ? It is well known that many roads are fearfully wa tered,andthe cost given is altogether fabulous. The average for the whole United States would be $4 7,000 a mile as the cost. The American Re gister has this to say: "Railways have not actually cost, experts insist, in dollars actually expended, more than $15,000 per mile. The statistics above given are the voluntary statements of em ployes of the corporations. They never for get to add the sum of watered stock to that of actual capital invested. In truth West ern railways did not cost the professional Milnrnif TMs.lr.M! an o vai-o M t 10 AOA r4r I mile. The people should not be required to pay tolls on watered railway or telegraph stock; but how to right the wrong is an in quiry that perplexes law-givers. Even tbejstrongest sympathizers in the North among American papers do not like the attitude of Parnell in the House of Commons. His speech in reply to Forster is regarded gene rally as lamentably deficient if not damaging. The Philadelphia Ameri can, for instance, is always favorable to the Irish in its criticism. Bnt in its issue of the 3d inst., it says: "When Mr. Parnell rose in the House of Commons to reply to the interpellation of Mr. Forster, and to give an account of his informal but real government of Ireland, he showed either that be was seriously em barrassed by facts which bad come to his cognizance, or that he did not realize the importance of his opportunity. He reply was 'a thing of shreds and. patches. It fastened itself to details of no special im portance,, and harped upon these ad nau seam. jlr. Darnell and the Land League have been occupying a false posi tion from the start. Either they believe in 'Ireland for the Irish," or they accept her position inside the British Empire under some sort of arrangement. If the former, they cannot sit in Parliament; if the latter, they are responsible to it as having ac cepted it as the channel of their public ut terances. A Wisconsin farmer and his wife wished to get rid of a boy aged 12, they had hired. Tbey stripped him nearly naked and turned him out into the cold to perish. The papers give the sequel: "Early in the morning they aroused the neighbors with a story that ' the waif had run away unknown to them, and that they t eared ne would be round dead.

A Pittsburgh iron manufac turer tells a Philadelphia Press re porter that on the whole he thinks the settlement of the tariff question for the present will have a favorable effect on business; but he is of the opinion that at the coming May con- terence ot tne iron ana steel manu facturers it will be found "necessary to have a material reduction in the present scale of wages." Certainly. That is the expedient these men al ways adopt at once and think of what further is to be done later. Baltimore Daij, Dem. Mr. R. P, Porter need not have exerted himself to prove that wages are higher in" the United States than in England, for that is not denied. What Mr. Porter should show is that the American can buy more than the Englishman with his week's wages.

M aihuigton Post, Dem. it IMPORTANT BIBLICAL DIS COVERY. Letter from R S. Poole to the London Daily News. M." Naville writes from Tel-el- Maschuta to announce that the exca vations undertaken by him ou that site for the Jlgyptian Jbxploration Fund have already yielded a result of the first historical and geographi- cal importance. This site, (Tel-el- Maschuta), roughly midway between Asmaina ana -i ei-ei-JveDir, is provea by an inscription dug up by M. Na ville to be at once the. Pithom and the Succoth of the Bible. Pithom was the sacred name descriptive of tbe lemple, and buccoth (luku) the civil appellation. We read of Pit hom as one of the cities built by the Israelites during the oppression, (Ex. i., 11.) aud Succoth was their first station in the march of the exo dus, (Ex. xii., 37: xiii., 20.) The dis covery not only places Pithom-Snc-coth on the map, but in doing so gives us at last a hxed point in tbe route of the Israelites ont of kgypt. A full discussion of -the results of this discovery would be premature, but it may be remarked that it greatly modifies Dr. Brugsch's at tempt to reconstruct the primitive geography of the Delta, which, like a broken geographical puzzle, will now be put together. It. must not, however, be forgotten that with the help ,of his collection of literary doc uments the labor is comparatively easy. It is to be hoped that the work to which M. Naville has de voted his great knowledge will not languish for want of funds. Hith erto it has been supported single- handed by Sir Erasmus Wilson. THE IMP OR TANCE COMMA.
