Jtilg JUnntbtc Jfournal. Aajuata, Saturday Morn'f, Mar. 8, 1879. The Caucus To-Night The republicans of Augusta should not fail to attend the caucus at (iranite Hall this evening, to nominate a republican can didate for Mayor. It is desirable that there be a full attendance, so that we may act with one mind aud one spirit at the polls next Monday. Let all parts of the city be represented. The determination is to have a straight republican candidate— to meet the oppo sition face to face under the old republi can banner. This iias been all along the sentiment of the most of republicans, and that feeling was greatly intensified by the outrage perpetrated by the democratic al dermen upon Postmaster Hamlen at the dictation of the Young Men's Democratic Club. There is virtually but one opinion among republicans since that outrage was committed, that is, that a straight republi can nomination must be made and should be supported at the polls by every effort that the republican party can put forth. A reform in relation to drinking houses and tippling shops, is most earnestly de manded. They have ruled the city gov ernment the last year; let us have a gov ernment the coming year that will rule thorn and drive them out of existence. The rum-shops grow under democratic government: we must overthrow demo cratic supremacy in the city and the clos ing up of the rum-shops will follow. Let us set in motion to-night a move ment which will take the control of the city from the hands of the Young Men's Democratic Club, and place it in hands that will make the reform which the good name and the welfare of our city most urgently require. The Portland Transcript, which U not u political paper, makes the following re-1 mark■ upon the reform legislature “It i* rather damaging to the reputation of the legislature as a body of reformers that while eager to ent down the salaries of public ofleere they held on to their own unconstitu tional perquisite of double mileage. This neglect of duty caused the session to come to “a most lame and impotent conclusion," and places in e ludicrous light the scrupulosity of members concerning jack-knives. Gov. Gar celon tarns out to be more of a reformer titan the Biembers bargained for.” The way the reformers reduced the ap propriation* till* year may be seen from the fallowing statement: Appropriations for 187b, $1,339,028.50. 1878, #1,295,653.82. Increase in 1879 over 1878. $33,375.18 If our farmers, laborers anil tax-pavers ctu> rend any improvement in this showing they are more stupid titan we think they are. Why ia the country to lte cursed by an extra session of Congress? There is a sim ple question. Here Is the plain answer Because the democratic politicians insist ed on loading down the appropriation bills with political matter which had no more business there than it has in the almanac. That ia all there ia to it. Let the blame fall where it belong*.—Bouton Herald. Mr. Wm. M. Rust of the Progressive Age. send* out a loud wail in his last! paper because the democrats and green becker* are so reluctant to “jine drives.” If be should happen to fail to lie elected Mayor next Monday, what a doleful time hi* reader* will have for several, weeks thereafter. Stalwart repulicanism has very largely increased in Augusta within a week. Not many republicans will have to be asked to ge the poll* next Monday. The ward cau cuses which have been held showed un common activity and interest in the result of the coming election. The Young Men's Democratic Club be- i gan to rule this city last March. The citizens have made up their minds that it is about time to have a city government not under the control of these young The fuller the returns come in from the Pennsylvania municipal elections, the more apparent becomes the failing strength of the greenbackers. In some places where thsy were quite numerous last fall they make the slimmest showing.

The Progressive Age, in commenting on the action of the democratic and greenback State committee, warn* the faithful of the cuoeeqnence*. The Age want* fusion. Its article, evidently, wa» written before the se rion* unplea*antne*i amid which the Maine LegUlature, on Wednesday finally adjourned, The following, from the Age, i* of interest in this connection: There was a meeting of the greenback and •f the democratic State committees at Augus ta, last week, that of the latter bring held Tuesday evening, and the former Wednesday Hewing. The democrat! committee took no aotfoa a* to calling a State convention. Tbs SoUtieal situation w as talked over, and wild there was no formal expression against uUtag with the greenback committee in is raltf s call for a union convention, the gen-1 eral impression of the members, which they had derived from h somewhat general con sultation, was that it was not adv isable to at tempt to hold such a convention this year, while it was at the same time thought best to aim to bring about a general aliiaace in the other counties similar to that which was had in Waldo, Penobscot and Somerset counties last year. It was thought that by another year the importance of the union upon a gen eral ticket would be more elearly seen and more easily effected. In the meeting of the greenback commit tee the views expressed w ere quite diverse. While it was argued that a union of all the opposition upon a single presidential ticket, next year in opposition to that of the repub licans, would be vitally necessary and that the union must be upon that of the two opposition parties which would stand the best chance of winning, the majority opinion seemed to be that it was unnecessary to take that question into consideration. It was ar gued the greenback party w as fast increasing by converts from both the old parties, and that the democratic party would be finally driven to disband and become absorbed in the greenback party, as a choice between that al ternative and allowing the republicans to suc ceed. The proposition to have an alliance with the democrats in city and town elections was advocated by some and opposed by some. It was finally voted to call a straight green back convention in Portland, the fifth of June to nominate a candidate for governor, and there seemed to be no doubt of the re-nomi nation of Mr. Smith, the candidate last year. The Speakership Contested. The Democrats not Si re of a Qlori m even—the Aspirants and the Green backers. [.Special to the Tribune.] Washington, March 5.—The President's proclamation calling Congress together in ex tra session in two weeks, plunges the demo crats of the House at once into the midst of the contest for the Speakership, and causes them to look about witli no little anxiety to ascertain whether they hare an actual ma jority or not. There have been elected already 147 demo crats. One of them, Mr. Schleicher, has since died, and two of them, Mr. Aeklcn, and Mr. Blind, are sick, with little prospect of their sufficiently recovering to he able to par ticipate in the organization of the House. The casualties, as they say in the army, will reduce the democratic strength to 144 or three less than a quorum. These figures are not to be sure, those given out by the democrats themselves, lmt are those contained in the Tribune Almanac, and which are not disput ed bv some of the best informed politicians in Washington. The highest number of dem ocratic representatives now living claimed by an\ one whose opinion is worth having, is 147 or. deducting the two sick men, 145. This even Mould leave the democrats with less than a quorum iu a full house of 293 mem bers. And just here arises a very important ques tion which may play a very important part in the coming contest. What constitutes a quorum—a majority of representatives from the districts, or a majority of those who have been elected? If the former theory is accept ed, then the man who is elected Speaker insist have 147 votes in order to he sure of an elec tion, because the minority may defeat him by sitting still and destroying the quorum, if the latter theory prevails, then 145 members make a quorum, because no election having yet taken plate in California, only 239 rep resentatives have yet been chosen. Speaker Grow early in the war made a rul ing that seems to sustain this last theory. Mr. Yallamlighani having raised the question on account of the absence of representatives from the Southern States, Mr. Grow said that a quorum of the House consisted of a ma jority of the members who had been elected, it being a notorious fact that no representa tives had been chosen in the Southern States. Even accepting this as the law, the demo crats will lack one of having a majority in the House on the first day of the session, un less Messrs. Acklen and Bland recover, of which there is little hope, or unless the va cancies in the Westchester District of New York and the Border District of Texas are filled, which is impossible. This condition of affairs causes the great est uneasiness among the democrats; and one of the oldest members of the House on that side expresses the opinion to-day that there will be a very sharp struggle, and per haps a long delay, in organizing the body after it meets. The only wav to avoid this is for the democrats to secure the co-opera tion of a few of the greenbackers, who, as the importance of their votes becomes mani fest, will probably be less likely to leave their own party without receiving the most sub stantial consideration. The importance of the question whether the democrats will be aide to organize the next House at all or not, and the intense interest that is felt in it, make the contest between rival democratic candidates for the Speakership seem of secondary moment. The two principal aspirants are Speaker Randall and Mr. Blackburn, with the chances decidedly in favor of the former. Mr. Ran dall's long service in the House, compared w ith that of his chief competitor, the prestige which his two terms in the chair have given him. andtheopportunitieshe has had to place members of the last Congress under obligations to him, are all in his favor. On the other hand, some of his appointments and some of his rulings have made bitter enemies of a few of the most influential men in his party. The balance is unquestionably in bis favor, and he will probably be re-elected, un less the regular nominee of the democratic party is beaten. 1II" quiet and determined attitude of the Greenbackers and National*, who are prepar ing to nominate and support a candidate of their own for the Speakership, adds to the democratic perplexity. The Greenbackers claim to have twenty-one men pledged to en ter the caucus with them; and this number, if they hold together, will he sufficient to make the election of any other than a compromise candidate impossible. The republicans number 128 members of the House, and so far as can lie foreseen, will be aide to tiring out their full vote on the first day of the session. These, with the 21 Greenbackers, will make a total of 149 mem bers; a majority of a full House, who. either by combining upon a candidate in opposition t« the one placed in nomination by the demo crats or by refraining from voting, can make it possible to prevent an organization until con sessions satisfactory to one or both of the two parties are made. Considerable speculation is indulged in here to-night us to what would be the result, not only in regard to the organ ization of the next House, hut as affecting the future of the democratic partv. should the Na tionals persuade Mr. Bright of Tennessee, to enter their caucus and become their nominee for the Speakership. Mr. Bright is a pro nounced soft-money democrat. He has al ready served four terms in Congress, is a man of acknowledged ability and a representative native-born Southern gentleman. Should such a step be taken by the Nationals, and should it result in the election of Mr. Bright, it might go far toward breaking up the solid South on present political Issues, and would utterly demoralize the democratic party, while it would bring again to the front as Na tional i sues in 18*0 the questions of inflation or contraction, hard' or soft money, green backs or gold. For the Journal. The Mask Thrown off. It is not quite fourteen years since the most wicked and fiendship rebellion known to his tory was overthrown in this country, when Jeff Davis its principal organizer and chief leader, was ignominious I v caught attempting to flee from hi* country in female apparel. The battle cry upon the Union aide for four years, was, •'We’ll bang Jeff Davis to u sour apple tree.” No one wav even weak enough for a moment to suppose that when caught, any thing aave death as a traitor and felon awaited him. For deeds of cruelty, for acts of inhuman treatment, no warfare records a parallel. Jeff Davis was the prime factor, and chief perpetrator of all this infamy. No other Government of earth would have saved his life, and to draw it mildly, we believe this Government seriously blundered by its len iency to the wicked, perjured old traitor. Still he might have lived in seclusion and perhaps never done much harm; but those who were followers with him in treason, are hack occupying seats in Congress, mak ing laws for the country they would have de stroyed, and only a few days since, in the United States Senate, Lamar of Mississippi took occasion to pronounce a eulogy upou Jeff Davis, in which he stated that he was to be placed side by side with Washington!! We conclude that even the mildest kind of loyalty must have for once thanked God for the pretence of Senator Chandler of Michi gan in the Senate on that occasion, for nev er was humanity more completely excoriated than was I.nniar and his associates by the old liouiaii from Michigan. The purpose of the leading politicians of the South is plainly shown now, and the time for action should not be delayed upon the part of loyal people. Lamar and his like, hare thrown down the gauntlet. They mean to rally the South under the idea that they were right and the North wrung during the late war. hence they select the President of the late Confederacy as the man of all others whose character and statesmanship is to be held up to the rising generation for an ex ample. Well, so let it be, and under this sign the loyal North will again oonguer. loo long have we been silent over mutter* relating to the war. “Bloody Shirt," shrieked from traitorous mouths, and sometimes re-eclioed by conservative, dough faced men at the North, has kept the republi can party in many localities silent to such an extent that it has almost been regarded us w rong to say anything in praise of the course the I'nion people took in the struggle. At the same time the Southern leaders have on all occasions lost no opportunity to boast of what they did, and to keep up the idea among the people, tint their cause was just. They teach this to the rising generation, and do everything in their power to cause them to hate the general government, while they in culcate in their minds the most ultra of States Bights notions. The course for loyal people to pursue is plain. Let the cry of Lamar be heralded over the North, let there be organization everywhere, let the spirit of 1HC1 once more be aroused, and such a victory will be rolled up us will teach pardoned traitors that to for give is one thing, hut to forget is another. The republican party is forced to the rally ing cry by Lamar and liis allies, that cry be ing, “the rights of citizenship everywhere throughout our borders." If there are States at the South with republican majorities by a fair vote, let us see to it that such States are organized, and this vote honestly cast at all future elections. Forewarned is forearmed. Will we act in season? Lotaltt. TIIU lAFUTt LAMP.

So that Mr. Gilley it satisfied that it would be time wasted to make further arrests. Last fall a roudy drove hia team over the bridge on the trot, taking the left-hand side, the driver smoking a cigar at the same time—thus breaking the city ordinances in three sepa rate particulars. There are some twenty persons at the city alms house, at the present time. General good health prevails there. The oldest per son there is Mrs. Donovan, an Irish lady, widow of the late Jerry Donovan, who has reached the remarkable age of one hundred and ftro years. Mrs. D. Is undoubtedly the oldest person in town. A correspondent in Farmington writes A little incident came under niy.knowledgc that I thought would be of interest to you. At a greenback caucus held in Temple prior to election, one of the soft money advocates arose and proposed that the caucus look into the feasibiltty of putting an article in the Warrant to impose n tax on government bonds. I believe it was voted down. That waa almost equal to the democratic board of Aldermen in Augusta executing l'reaident Hayes’ civil service order. The Augusta House will he closed to-day. Mr. \Vhitlu-d intends to take his family to Massachusetts, and will himself go West in quest of business.

A YEAR UNDER DEMOCRATIC RILE J The Appropriations Overdrawn Nearly $15,000. How Is Hint for Democratic Economy I Much bus been «aid of late In the Standard and the dear departed Democrat concerning economy in city expenditures. Now a few facts are more weighty than whole volumes of w ind. We have taken the pains to examine the City Treasurer’s hooks, and find that during the past year of democratic rule, the expendi tures have been so great that the appropria tions hare been overdrawn in nearly every department. The excess of payments to this date amount to more than nine thousand dol lars. We give the follow ing results of our ex amination of the Treasurer's books. The several appropriations have been over drawn as follows Contingent Fund, overdrawn, SHI 6.00 City officers, 700.00 Estimated amount due city offi cers, 1,000.00 Highway appropriation, over drawn, 303.00 Lighting Streets, overdrawn, 740.00 New Streets, 914.00 Printing, 390.00 Eire Department, 3,903.00 Police 910.00 The men connected with the Fire Depart ment have not yet been paid their annual salaries. This will add some twelve hundred dollars to the above figures nnd should there be the usual amount of unreported bills yet to come in, say three thousand dollars, we will have the neat little sum of 614,187 is excess of the appropriations, as the legacy which the Kkfoiiu Government of 1878 is to bequeath to our city Republican ^nomination*.

I.apham, whose excellent re ports of the proceedings of the legislature just adjourned have been _ quite extensively copied, relates to a most ludicrous incident that occurred the last day of the session 1 Wearv with waiting and anxious to get j away to-day, the members of both branches began to take measures for fixing upon some line of action by which the farce could bf brought to a close. Messages were conveyed back and forth, and finally it was agreed that a joint committee should wait upon the Gov ernor and inform him that they had got through w ith the business of the State, and were ready to adjourn, and ask if he had any further communication to make. They were met at the door of the ante-room by Hon. Mark Harden, the messenger to the governor and council, to whom they declared the ob ject of their visit. That official, with his usual suavity, informed the committee that he would make known their wishes to the Governor. He soon returned and informed the committee that the Governor was very busy, but would receive them in about Jiftetn sttuuitt. This was something unheard-of for r. joint committee of the legislature to be kept waiting at the door of the executive chamber for fifteen minutes, for an interview. Wrath sparkled in the eyes of the committee, ami they immediately scattered, and return ing to their respective branches, they report ed progress. After this rude rebuff, what little friendly feeling there was toward the Governor, on the part of some of the mem ber*. seemed to evaporate. t Crystal Wedding. The fifteenth anniversary of the marriage of Mr. snd Mrs. George O. Whipple of Hal lowell, was celebrated at their residence last Wednesday evening, fith inst., by a party of upwards of fifty of the friends of the worthy couple, who eatne laden with beautiful and useful gifts in crystal, silver, china, etc. The afllsir was a pleasant surprise to Mr. Whipple, who took no offence, however, at the invasion of his premises by the party. Rev. Mr. Grovenor performed the ceremony of strengthening the lies of wedlork, the same gentleman making the presentation speech in behalf of the donor* of the ‘‘wed ding gifts," to which Mr. W. responded ia a feeling manner. Congratulations were next in order. Ice-cream, cake and fruit were then served in abundance. Music and mirth prevailed, and all went “merry as a marriage bell” till the “wee sma' hours,” when the guests departed with wishes for long lives and continued happiness of the hsppy couple.

Industrial Nrliool. Abstract of the Superintendent's report, made to tlie Hoard of Managers March oth Tlie quarter now closing has been more than usually prosperous. The health of the school has been remarkably good. The dis cipline has been thoroughly maintained, ami the improvement of the girls has been all that could reasonably be expected. The number at the beginning of the quarter was 31 j Present number, 32 Number committed. 2 returned from homes, 5 sent to homes, fi Olliers are seeking admission to the school. The success of the institution has surpassed the most sanguine hopes of its friends. Its prospects for usefulness were never better than at present, if an inadequate appropria tion shall not compel the trustees to dis charge the girls from their care prematurely; and thus scatter and destroy the fruits al ready in process of being garnered. In the amount of good the school has ac complished, and in the management of its finances, it may challenge a comparison with anv other Industrial School. The expense of tlie school at Lancaster, Mass., last year, was $24,422.21, according to tlie last report, with an average number of girls less than 100. The rout of our school last year was $4,tiO*.12, with an average number of 31 girls. In view of these facts, and the necessity of extraordinary ex)ienses in theearlv stage of any institution, the financial management of the school cannot be deemed extravagant.

With the revolver held across his waist coat, and pointing at uotiling in particular, Hyland backed out of the door and was gone.” So far as there was anything of moment connected with this affair, i henrd nothing more from liaird that night. I did net see Baird again till the week after Christmas. He then continued the histonr as follows: "Ear some weeks after flics* scenes in Langton's office they heard no more of Ryland. During the tine- hi* unhappy W’lfe continued in the same mental leth argj. input**)I v asking for her baby, but betratring no emotion and giving no sign ofrtolenee. I looked in at her lodgings about twice a week. Her doctor, Dr. Sherwood Freeman, nnd L quite agreed is to the ease. There was Httb» or no htipe of a mental rally uutil either the child as restored or her mind received some shock which should eonutertet the one occasioned by Its loss. In the meantime Eangton had, as soon as possible, instituted legal pro ceedings against Hyland. I don't know whs* lae nature of the proceedings was, but boheld out slight hope of speedy re lief: the case, it seems, was one full of difficulties at best, and the block in the court* tiled him with despair. “In about six weeks from the day 1 wa« in Lam {ton’s office, Kvland wrote to say the child was ill, and that he would deliver i it up on condition of getting a thousand pounds. rff ‘Ah! said Langton to me the evening he got the letter, ‘so the threats of law have beaten him down two hundred. The illneks of the child is a lie to force us to terms. T shall not answer that letter.' ‘‘Well, Melton as you may guess, 1 w as i by Utfa time greatlvinterested in the eases. legal and medical.

The chtM had P ally been 111 of"scarlet fever, aH*pnSidhTp care had hern taken of It. lmf neverthelpss, it had died, and was to he buried that day; and Langton and the va cant-eyed woman were setting off now to the cemetery. “Ryland would not allow the mother to approach her dying child, bnt when it was dead he seemed to think he might run snMoagly risk if ho did not allow the mother's attendance at the interment, and langton and she were now going. 1 ex amined her closely. but could observe no change; the channel® of her reason were frozen up, and in the same condition as on the day of her bereavement. 'May I go'.' 1 asked. “‘Certainly,’ said he: and in a liltte while the thpe of ns gut into a cab and drptie to the cemetery Ryland bad named. ‘‘The same unbroken shadow of mental gloom hung over the unhappy woman, hirinfftiie whole drive she never spoke a word. Her eyes were east down most of the time. Of the few occasii«B*. when she lifted them they sought Cangton's (ace, but there was no exdtomeut in them. it was plain from limit tmpeurancc that rea son was an cxild,’kM& the land reason had leftdndiiftd remained still unoccupied bv a«fli%lHVWkN«*|iirit of the void.

The three Umbrellas were all right. “‘No,’ answered Langton "1 don’t think we have left anything behind.' ‘In the cemeterv?' she asked. “‘Xo.’Iaaid. ‘No.’ ‘We have,’ she said, ‘I know it, I feel it-_ As we drove away now, I heard my ihild cry.

Let us go back for my darling 1 My babv son: Mv own! Mv ownV "She threw her arms out toward us with the anguish of a mother's broken heart on her face, and the knowledge of her childless fate in her eyes. Then all at once her body began swaying slightlv, and with a low moan she buried her fare in bar hands and burst into tears. “She had lost her child, but had re §ained its image, and her brain was healed. he had lost her child and regained his image, and her heart was broken.
