BRECKINRIDGE DEFEATED. At last the election is over in t'ol. rreekinridge's district and his defeat is announced. If true, it is well, well for the country now and well for its future, t’ol. I’reck in ridge might. not have been the worse offender against virtue and honesty among 1 those who were sent as represenatiVes i of t he people to make t heir count ry's ; laws anh preserve her honor. Ihit ; from his own confession we know 1 enough to make us hide our faces in ! shame and wish it had not been. To niP'otitico himself a candidate for reeh cl ion to t'ongress at a time when his name was a by-word of re proach ami scorn was in itself dis counting virt lie, and asking his con stituents to place a premium on im morality and vice. The heated canvass through which lie has just passed brought prominent ly out the magnetism of the man. and his power to controi men. Hut woman was against him : vir tue and truth were against him. and outraged confidence struck the blow that laid him aside as a public servant. Let ISrcckinridge t urn aside to other walks of life, or sink in retire incut to prove to the world that he is. as he says, a penitent.

Now that there has been a shaking up hy the revision of t he tarilT. they find their I rue level and go to t heir own.

FROM WASHINGTON. A N wsy Letter From the Nation’s Headquarters. jt orrcspomlclie" of Tin: Li:iioi;i;. | i Washington, Sept IT. — Every student of politics is aware what a little thing il sometimes takes to start t he polit ieians to wagging their tongues in a manner that would put the most iiidtislrous sewing society! to shame. This is so everywhere more or less, hut is part leiilarly so in Washington. Just now the lounger around the lobbies of the Washing ton hotels frequented by politicians ; would imagine from the talk, if lie | didn’t happen to know belter, that il was only a few months before the convening of the nat ional eon vent ions to nominate I’resident ial tickets. And all ef this talk started from an opinion expressed by Congressman Wilson, of W. Ya.. in a! interview with a reporter of a Loudon paper several days ago. That opinion was merely that he did not believe Hivsi- dcnl Cleveland desired to he again nominated. Seems simple enough. Any man might hold and express the same opinion, or the reverse, pist as lie would an opinion upon any other subject about which there was doubt. Hut lo. when the opinion is cabled to Washington it creates a eommolioii among the politicians. Heads are put together. and a new deluge of opinions poured out. Hue politician will assure you that Mr. W ilson’s re lations with Mr-Cleveland are such as to make his opinion an authentic notice of t he Ial I er s intention; all ot her. that the opinion wa- put forth to ascertain t he sentiment of I he deni oeratie party towards Mr. C s candi dacy etc., etc., to an extent that would till your paper, and what docs it all amount to? Nothing, Imt idle gossip. Mr. Cleveland may or may not become I he candidate of his party in llf>. hut it i> absolutely certain that the quest ion cannot be deter mined Mi I St 11 hy any one except Mr. < ‘leveland himself. Considerable talk has been occa sioned by t he recent activity of l he American I’roteetive Association in Washington. within three weeks live new councils have been established, making twelve in all now here, and it is staled that several composed exclusively of negroes are being or ganized: also, a branch of the Wom an s \. |*. \.
