WBDNB8DAY KVBanNO, JUNE U, IB04. 8llnr What Ue Sec. Pennsylvania presents Samuel J. Ilnn ctell as her candidate for prosldent nnd presents him slncerely.and her delegation will support hltn faithfully, but neither thev nor Mr llandall dealre the cenven tlen te Accept him if it does net consider him te be the best and strongest cnndl data. At least they should net have this desire, and we credit thorn with wlshlnK what they ought te wish. Hut because Mr. llandall Is Pennsylvania's candidate, Pennsylvania Demecrats are net thereby forbidden te cast their glance upon ether candidates or te con sider the probable strength they will have before the convention or the people. The Philadelphia Press seems te think that because the Intklmei:nci:ii once mere, by the way, unwarrantably attributing Its utterances te "the chairman of the Democratic state com cem com mlttce "recognizes the probable ever, shadowing strength of Governer Cleve land before the convention, It there by shows disloyalty te Mr. llan dall. The iNTKLLiOEKCtiii proposes always te obtain the respect of its readers for its geed judgment and sense, if it can, and docs net intend te sacrifice their esteem and Its self respect by an exhibition of such profound stupidity, as it would manifest in ignoring the fact that the veice of the state et New Yerk will be potential in the Democratic national convention If it presents a can can didate of Buch excellent repute before the country as the Democratic governor of its state. We see no evidence any where outside this state of any feeling of dissatisfaction with Cleveland's name, and if he has his state unitedly he clearly can have the nomination. There would be discontent with Tilden felt by an influential but doubtless a minority section or the party; and Flower, another prominent New Yerk candidate, would hardly be accepted by the convention with hisstnte at his back; but against Cleveland we see no prospect of pretest; nnd se seeing, we se say. Why He Is Opposed. The se called, mere or leas, Independ. ents of Pennsylvania cannot understand why the Independent Republicans of New Yerk nnd New England de net support Mr. Blaine's nomination. This is only another proof that the Independ ents of thisstate are bogus. If they were genuine they would net only appreciate the position of the better class of Republicans in ether states, but they would onderso it and coeperato with them. Fer Mr. Blaine stands for nothing thnt the Independents have professedly urged and advocated. He is an eager, vindictive, unscrupulous and rapacious speilsman, who has no regard for and has never been the friend of what is called civil service reform by Its Inventors. He is a demagogue, without any real political principles or convic tions, and always ready te aban don his professions when he can make for himself, or his friends, or his nartv bv ilnlnc fin. fNi promulgation and abandonment of the surplus division scneme ; and ins course en international affairs, the Chinese and silver questions prove this. Ills mallg mnt attacks en the Seuth, and his at tempts iu turn te wheedle and conciliate it ; his jobbery in the speaker's chair nnd the hosannas with which nearly all the individual and combined public thieves iu the country hall his nomination ; his friendship with the Star Reute gang and their faithful reciprocity ; his blat ant appeals te the soldier element, and his own personal subterfuges during the war ; his coarse, bullying and sensa tional metheda,ull,have deserved as they have wen for him the contempt and op position of right minded men. If the Independents of this statu are net counted among these, it is their mis fortune as well as their fuult. An Lusoldlerly (Jencral. There is a story going the rounds of the press te the effect that Gen. Sheridan became very much incensed lately be cause a railroad conductor en ttie Lim ited express, P. R. R., would net accent his pass en that train ; upon which no passes are taken, net even that or the president of the company; that Sheri dan only paid his fare under compu'sieii of a threat te put him off, and that he indignantly reported the conductor te the company ; that he received a letter from President RebertB, who returned the money, nnd apologized for the con ductor's rudeness ; and that the con ductor was promoted by the company for bis fidelity. The latter part of the story, if tuie, and the conductor's action are the only portion of it that reflect nny credit en thoae concerned. If General Sheridan could net understand and appreciate an empleye's strict obedience te erdtrs aud the necessity for discipline In a railroad's operations well as In an army, he should have been taught a lessen that lie needs te learn ; and Ills complaint te the rail read company afforded an opportunity which Its president ought te have he Im proved. Coeling en Him. If Mr. Blaine cannot get the Irish pce pie te support him he will have n lene lotet Star Reute thieves te boom his cause. Ilenry Ward Beechereven re pudlates him, and Mr. Beecher is sup posed te have a strong nteraach. The Independent opposes him ; and the Inde pendent has in the past swallowed any thing that was labeled Republicanism. The New Yerk World reporters have been interviewing the terajwrance pee pie, nnd they will have none of Blaine. They have also talked with the members of the beer brewer's association of New Yerk nnd New Jersey, who had their annual dinner yesterday, in New Yerk, nnd they repudlate Blaine, he. cause they had the general peer opinion of his honesty. In fact Blaine's chnrau terlstlca can only recommend him warm lyte the thleves of the country, who doubtless are for him, He showed him self in the Mulligan business te be an expert robber ; and has se fervently es (abi 'wl liii reputation ferdisYmesty that ene cannot be charged with slander in charging lilra with dishonesty. Ills Republican associates cannot entertain a very profound conviction of his Integ rity, and the record of his chief advocates does net give them the opportunity te glve him a valuable certificate of char acter. It leeks as though Mr. Blaine would have te start up an Irish Angle phobia dynamite campaign te raise any sort of an excitement In the campaign and get for himself anything llke a warm support. Ik a bar room light in a Perry county, Pa., village, the ether night, between n let of disappointed Stalwarts and ex cited friends of Blaine, there was as much bleed shed as at Copiah or Dan ville. Will the United States Senate appoint a committee te investigate it.

But, as it was solid for the rar.u from Maine, it oxeitcs no qualms iu the breasts of the Pharisaical Blaine henchmcu. Mil?. Garfield and family promptly sent their congratulations te Blaine. The family of Jehn Brown have net yet sent iu their felicitatiens te Legan. It was iu 1859, in Congress, that Legan de nounced "the ministers of Ged or pre tended ministers of Ged who attended a meeting whiah passed resolutions of sympathy with that traitor, thief and scoundrel," Jehn Brown. Ji'Den Advocate Gexehai. Swaim is te taste of the delights of a court martial.

The Yeung Men's Democratic assecia tien, of Philadelphia, which hasdone very excellent work in behalf of sound principle and for the practical promotion of Deme cratie buccess, proposes te extend its use fulness by appealing te the young men of the party generally throughout the state I te tem a chain of kindred association?, wbleh would assuredly be of great aid and benefit te the party, especially from the faet that oae association would be able te reccive at all times reliable information from the ethers with regard te the general political condition of the respective locali ties, aud te obtain the sympathetic action and co-operation of a large body of or. gauized Democrats.

The New Yerk Independent, the most widely circulated nnd lulluentlal Republi can literary, rollgleusaud political weekly in the country, Bays it will net support the ticket nominated at Chicago. " It cemmauds uoither our euthusiasm nor our convictions. Our oenvlotlons wero net transferred by Pewell Clayten, with his dreve of Arkansas delegates. Our enthusiasm is net kindled by gush and dash and ' magnetlam,' Tbe lovel head and downright oeusoionco of the Itopubll Itepubll cau party demaud dovetiou te principle. Dovetiou te party is uet eneugh. Blaine aud Legan nre lit oemrades. They wero the two mejt objectiouahlo candidates bofero the convention, nnd it was natural that they should combine and conquer. They ropresent ihoself seeking, demagogical olemout, which uses a party for potseual preferment. Ne ene suspects them of an earnest desire for a single reform. They nre net known as advocates of a pure civil service, of frugal expendi tures of the public funds or of the purification of political methods. On the ether hand, they have the reputation of beiug bhrewd nnd unscrupulous party die taters. Their oheson, eager friend, who have engineered their success, have been the star routers of the West aud the bumuers of the East, whom Mr. Arthur llung away when he became president. We have no heart te go into Mr. Blaine'a personal record ; but we regard it as net that ct a mm who is fit te be the candi date of the Itopublie u party. We cau adviae ue vete for men who represent uet tbe consclence of our pat ty, but the profits or the prrjudices of its camp followers. If Heme power could glve tbe Democrats grnce te uominate nn unexceptionable can didate, llke Bayard or Cloveland, they would niake the olectiou of Blaine impos sible. We understand that Mr. Maine's campaign will be conducted with all the vigor which shrewdness and money cau oemmaud ; that it will beuusurpassed for its noise, flre, enthusiasm, precessions nnd terchlights ; that it will exhaust every dovice of tbe roost accomplished traders nnd manipulators of votes ; and yet we bolievo it will fall. The tioket may carry some western states by tremendous majorities ; but a gced Democratic candi date will sweep New Yerk by a majerty almost hke that of Clovelaud two jears age, Massachusetts and Connecticut nnd New llampshire would fellow. e said befoie the convention that Mr. Blaine could net be electcd. We were uet making threats then ; new we add that he ought net be elected. The consclence of the true Republicans, who leve its fai;h niore than Its fishes, will surely defeat its unworthy ticket, either by refusing te give their votes te tbe candidate or by transferring their vetes te the Democratic ticket, or, possibly, te a third tlcket net yet previded for." 1II.A.INK AT UOS1K. Described lj One el IIU Noigtter. F. F. Pdlsbury, of Maine, a clese neigh bor of Mr. Blaine, said at a meeting of tbe Bay State club in Bosten tbe ether night : " I think lam pretty well acquainted with the lleu. James G. Blaine. I have ouceuutcrod him en the stump, and have fought political battles with him in Maiue. I have studied his methods aud character, and I think I understand him prettv well. I am free te accord te Mr. Blaine that be has no equal ns a politician in this country and he is prolific in his resources and tact and sharpness In politics. But beyond that I have never yet seen a Republican who could say mero for Illaine. Ne Re publican could ever cive me a sound reason why Blaiue should command the respect of the people of this country. I new ask, what has he denn eutside of his acts as n peliticiau te command respect ; what act of statesmanship V With what great measure has he beeu allied ? Ne ene can tell. What has he dene in states manship, in business or in religion, if you please, that untitled him te this sup port ? "In tbe matter of Christian religion, James G. Blaiue carae te Augusta a Catholic, and carried his Uible ana rosary te church, but when he went into politics thu Catholie church was net popular enough and he apostatized and went into the Con gregational church, en the condition that he should net be called te make prayer in church. (Cheers.) What Is his war re cord that it should entitle him te the con fidence of the people, although he was formest in the proceedings that led te the war '.' He was the first te be drafted in his district. But prier te that an organization had'been effected in Augusta te protect men awninst the draft, each member piy lug C25 te the fund te hire a substitute if drafted. Mr. Blaine, out of that fund hired n substitute named Uradferd. A soft place was found for the mau te re main at his pest in Augusta instead of going te the front. After a while he was detected in selliug for mouey certain cer tltleates, nnd he was kept in jail until the clese of thu war. That oeustitutcd Mr. Blaine'a service in the Held. (Loud Laughter.) After the war had closed tbe men who had bceu drawn claimed that the towns nud cities should pay the ex pontes they had beeu put te, aud Augusta generously voted te pay these men the money they had paid for substitutes, nud Mr. Blaiue get his bend for $200. But this is uet the end. Afterwards a ronelu tlen was put bofero the common council of Augusta te pay Mr. Hlalue $200, the amount he had paid fur a uubstitutc, nnd it waa voted and passed, and he wm paid.

The Qmelte need net nssure its roadera that it holds the turne opinion of the nomination of Jamej G. Blaine made at Chicago en Friday.

It Is an Inderse meet of everything which the party has itself admitted te be objectlonablo aud has nvowed its dotermlnntlon te romevo.

The bishop spoke te thu laity pertinently upeu the quuatieu of support te theso wlise lines have fallen in desolate places, nnd asked the question Hew mauy congregations in the laud previde n salary that enables the rector te lay by semething for the day wiieu waut comes. In this diocese thore is ene clergyman who receives $3,000, aud 40 who reccive lesi thau $1,000 The bishop referred te classes of labor which received far mero than Ged'a eervanta, and reasoned from it that these who have ue lack in this world's goods should net lies'. -tate te previde liberally for thoae who have net. Te men thoroughly fu.nished unto uvery geed word aud work, this whole subject of elcricai support deserves the undivided attention et this dioccse. The report montieued the deaths of Rev. Ilenj. W.
