Tiik general sympathy felt for Ser
geant Mason on account of the severity
of hi- sentence for shooting at Guiteau,
as i.oticed elsewhere, springs from the
fact that Guiteau is held in universal
execration by the American people.
Mason's duty was to assist in protecting
Guiteau, assassin though lie be, from
the blind fury of the populace, if neces
sary, instead of which he deliberately
fhot at him, just as lie, GuHeau, fatally
bliot at Gaiiie'd. If Mr. Arthur should
pardon him, however, we presume the
country could stand the shock.
Soie time ago we referred to astrin
gent bill, then before the Legislature of
Iowa, forbidding the issuing of free
passes on the railroads of that State.

Tiif. indictment against Dorsey,

document. It contains but one count

Edward Ker, Esq., who was lately an
Assistant to the Democratic District
Attorney of riiil'a and specially ap
pointed by Mr. Brewster, Attorney Gen
eral of the United States, to assist in
the preparation of the Star route cases.
Dorsey and Brady will be defended by
some of the ablest criminal lawyers in
the count r, among whom will be E. B.

sel for the prosecution several years ago
in th" celebrated trial of Matt. Ward,
a young rowdy belonging to an aristo

So fa it as we have observed the ex
pression of opinion by the Democratic
press, regarding the next State conven
tion, it is undoubtedly against holding
it at as early a day as has generally been
the case with perhaps two exceptions,
the convention at Erie in September '75
being one of them. Our own opinion
is that the convention ought to be held
not more than three months before the
election, which would be in the fore
part of August. The demand for an
early convention is always placed upon
the ground that sufficient time must be
given before the election for the pur
pose of effecting a thorongh party or
ganization in the different counties.
Conceding this to be true, we have only
to say that a chairman of a county
committee who canrt perform his duties
in that respect inside of three months,
so as to have the Democrats in his coun
ty eager and reedy for the fray, ought
to resign his position in favor of some
one who can. Two essential things are
required intelligent and honest dele
gates to the convention men who can
look abroad over the whole State for
candidates, and not confine their politi
cal vision to a circumscribed, or to use a
better word, a home circle ; then the
candidates must be such that no Demd
crat when he votes for them will do
so under a sort of protest. They must
be men whose characters are pure and
unassailable, and for whom a vote can
be cast with a cloar conscience. "We
are also of the decided opinion, as we
have always heretofore been, that the
convention should meet at Ilarrisburg.
"We never yet heard a good reason why
a State convention should be held else
where, It has frequently been done, we
know, but we could never see its pro
priety, or that any possible advantage
was gained by it.
Gen Jacob D. Cox, of Ohio, who
filled the office of Secretary of the Inte
rior during a portion of Grant's first
term, read a paper one day last weak be

counsel for a man indicted for larceny
that his client was convicted on cir

his term. Cox, his attorney, would dis
cover evidence clear and undoubted of

POOR JIMMIE BLAINE RATHER SUG
GESTIVE "CCLTCRED" MASSACHU
SETTS, ETC.
Regular Correspondence of THE Freeman.
Philadelphia, March 13, 1882.
Dear Henry Allow me to inter
view you, by putting to you a few in
terrogotaries. Did you ever indulge in
the mysterious game familiarly known
as "iofcer," but more affectionately
known by its devotees as, the game of
draw? Have you ever, like the "Mill
Boy of the Slashes," the inventor of the
game, sat behind a "bob-tail flush," or
felt the supreme confidence of a good
Christian man when fortified by a hand
that held "four aces ?" This great Am
erican game has become so popular iu
England that the whole realm of Vic
toria has fallen a prey to its blandish
ments. London journals inform us that
our English cousins have become infat
uated with the game, and that the
craze over is wild. All of which honor,
if it is an honor, is due to the great
"American Gift-Taker." While the
ex-Fresident himself is not the inventor
of the "game of draw," he sent a repre
sentative toEngland who knew more
about "poker than he did about diplo
macy ;" and although the ex-Minister
may have been the direct instrument,
yet the ex-President is responsible. The
American Minister taueht the English
Prince of Wales the modus ojjtrnndi'ot
the American game, and the Prince
proved to be an apt pupil under his com
petent instructor. The game of "draw
poker" became the shibboleth of the
Frince'a popularity, and the game is
now a popular amusement, counting its
victims among women as well as men,
and reaching every grade of society.
The retired chieftain can comtemplate
the consequences of his work, now that
the realm of the English Queen has fall
en a prey to the blandishments of the
desolating game of "draw." The half
breeds seem never to have considered
the breadth and depth of this Stalwart
assault upon the morals of an unoffend
ing nation. It was a hapless day vhen
the American Minister introduced the
game of "poker" in England, Many
were the sins of commission as well as
of omission laid at the door of ex-Preai-dent
Grant's administratioui yet few
people are aware of the grave conse
quences of the appointment of General
Schenck as Minister to the Court of St.
James.
THE DEVIL TO BE INVESTIGATED.
I am rejoiced to learn that "Old
Scratch" is going to catch it at last.
The old fellow has been having it pret
ty much his own way for a long time,
but he will soon be brought to bay. The
Rev. Moses Hull, of Erie, is going to in
vestigate the Devil. The Reverand
gentleman is determined to show when
and how the Devil was made and what
is finally to become of him, Good for
the Rev. Moses Hill ! I am rejoiced, as
will be the people of the whole world,
to gain a knowledge on these points.
The origin, habits and destiny of that
old fellow have long been in obscuritv.
Ho is a mischievous, troublesome oid
cuss, and it is full time that he should
be investigated.
DECIDEDLY PROBLEMATICAL.
It Is much to be feared that unless the
distinguished Keifer and his trusted
lieutenants Robeson and Randall, man
age things better, that Grant will con
tinue on the retired list without a pen
sion. It would seem that the passage
of the Grant retirement bill through the
House is decidedly problematical. In
all seriousness the status of the Grant
bill is not what it ought to be for the
man who whipped the Confederacy single-handed
and alone, and is left by his
ungrateful count to wrestle with pov
erty in his old age. If all indications
can be relied on, Keifer is enduring the
pangs of purchased greatness. He is
now called upon to render a substantial
return for the exertion of the Stalwart
influences, which made him Speaker, by
landing Grant high and dry on a pen
sion of $13,500 per year. But there are
some troublesome elements to be placa
ted before he can do so. So far as Mr.
Keifer himself is concerned, he has no
conscientious scruple! as to voting this
handsome pension to the man who saved
the country single-handed and alone,
but Gen. Sherman is not well disposed
toward Grant, being stricken, it is said,
with the aesthetic impulse of jealousy.
Th3 jealous General lias also a brother
John who, although he voted for the
bill in the Senate, is religiously opposed
to the retirement of the great gift-taker.
There are also other individuals not un
known to fame from Ohio, and who
have influence in politics and represent
in that State a formidable Stalwart in
fluence. Keifer did all the Stalwarts
had any right to demand when he pack
ed the military committee for Grant.
He is not able to deliver the House,
which exhibits a desire to kick over the
crmmittee and prance around its pros
trate remains. So the condition of the
retirement bill in the House is decided
ly problematical.
CAMERON, RANDALL A CO,
The indications are that the coming
Democratic campaign in Pennsylvania
is to he conducted by Cameron and Ran
dall as a partnership affair against the
Independent Republicans. The Demo
cratic candidates to be put up are not
to be offensive to Mr. Cameron. He, it j
appears, is to be the Democratic cam- j
paign manager for the State of Pennsyl- j
vania as well as the Republican cam- j
paign manager. A uemocratic caucus
for selecting a national committee, pro
posed Governor Cnrtin as a member of
that committee, but it was objected to
for the reason that it would make Mr.
Cameron mad. The placing of Mr.
Curtin on the Democratic national com
mittee would madden Mr. Cameron, but
the placing of Mr. Randall in his stead
on the committee would gladden Mr.
Cameron. The Cameron Democrats
prevailed and Mr. Randall was chosen.
So it appears that Senator Don Camer
on is the Democratic campaign mana
ger for thetate of Pennsylvania as well
as manager for his own party. The
Pennsylvania Democrats don't seem to
be afraid of making Senator Mitchell
mad, as they didn't consult him. When
it was said that the selection of Curtin
would surely make Cameron mad, two
Democrats had the unblushing effron
tery to say, "Then let us take Mr. Cur
tin," but the Cameron Democrats pre
vailed, Curtin was dropped and Randall
taken. Besides having Mr. Randall on
the national committee, that he may be
elected its chairman, and thus have the
directing of it through the gubernator
ial campaign. The contest in the form
ation of the new Democratic city com
mittees sharper and fiercer then any
thing of the kind known for years. The
fact that this committee will have the
control of the Philadelphia Democracy
during the gubernatorial campaign dis
tinguishes the interests and issues at
stake beyond those that are merely inci
dental in what are known as 'off years,'
SHERMAN'S PETTY TniEVERIEB EX
PLANATORY EPISTLES.
Ex-Secretary of tne Treasury, now U.
S. Senator. John Sherman, has been
busy writing epistles marked "confi
dential" to his personal friends, who
promptly give them to the press, in a
futile attempt to make the public be
lieve he was innocent of the irregulari
ties in the disjosal of the contingent
fund charged against him. There is al
so such an odium attaching to Senator
Windom when he was at the head of
the Treasury Department in carefully
suppressing testimony before the inves
tigating committee, that he will also be
issuing explanatory epistles. During
the prngTcsl of the Investigation the j
fact of Mr. Windom having suppressed
damaging evidence against Mr. Sher
man was developed. This development
that Mr. Windom bad suppressed cer
tain important portions of the statement
made by Mr. O. L. Pitney, the custo
dian of the contingent fund, caused the
committee to summon Mr. Pitney before
it as a witness, whose statement respec
ting the manner in which the ex-Secre-tarys
political bead-qnarter3 in Washing
ton for conducting his campaign for the
Presidential nomination at Chicago, is
such as wiil require a thicker coat of
whitewash than that recently so vigor
ously applied by one of his retained jour
nalistic news purvevora to cleanse his
reputation. Mr. Pitney's statement
leaves both ex-Secretaries Snerraan and
Windom in a most unenviable light.
Pitney's statement exposes the meanest
and most contemptible svstem of petty
thieving from the public treasury that
can be conceived or. Sherman's thiev
ing appears the more comtemptible and
picayunish when it is well known that
he is a millionaire, Mr. Pitnev's sworn
statement cannot be controverted. It
is a lengthy and comprehensive one,
and gives details of Sherman's petty pil
ferings from the contingent fund which
are very damaging to a millionaire hold
ing the high position of Secretarv of the
Treasury. The statement of Pitney,
late custodian of the Treasury contin
gent fund is a Jmost flagrant expose of
the method employed to keep the two
aesthetical gentlemen who last held the
Treasury portfolio supplied with bo
quets by buying them with the contin
gent fund and charging them as ice.
"Where will such official thieves as
Sherman and Windom die when they go
to." These two "economical" finan
ciers, who have recently been at the
head of the Treasury and entered pub
lic life without a bank account, now
count their gains by many millions.
THE DISTINCTION OF THE LETTER G.
"Quiz" says : No one has noticed
how much distinction has been accord
ed of late to the letter G. It seems to
go in couples. In England there is
Gladstone and Granville ; in France
there is Gambetta and Gievy, and in
America we have Grant and Garfield.
As Grant faded from sight the letter G.
grew lurid on the literary horizon with
the terrible name of Guiteau. "Quiz"
thinks that the latter name will not be
forgotten.
POOR JIMMIE BLAINE.
It is sad that Jimmie in his'eulogy on
Garfield should take such nn warrantable
liberties with ancient and modern his
tory. The soft cadences of his mellow
voice had scarcely died away in the fret
ted roof of the Capitol till he was sum
moned to the bar of criticism in various
quarters. Befoie many of the men and
women of America had read with vary
ing emotions the carefully pruned para
graphs of his essay, the St. Louis Daily
Post editor challenged his biblical lore.
He says : "No man who misquotes
scripture as badly as Blaine did shall
have my vote. " Gen. Rosecrans sharply
criticises him for charging that the dead
Garfield found the army of the Cumber
land torn by dissensions and by his magic
touch brought harmony out of wrangling
and confusion. Public iconoclasts have
dashed and tumbled Jimmie's master
niece to earth anil not oTlicflo.t o a
hacking off its rounded and polished or
naments. The editor of the Macon
Messenger says : "Mr. Blaine's attempt
to make Garfield a heroic soldier by rea
son of his unimportant collision "with
Humphrey Marshall, exhibits a want of
familiarity with facts, or a disregard of
them, which might have been considered
ridiculous on any other occasion." It
says further : "There were ierhtps no
two men in the United States less fitted
to make soldiers than Garfield and Mar
shall." At the end of that skirmish
at long range, reeulting in casualties
hardly exceeding twenty disabled on
both sides, "Humphrey Marshall ran
seven miles one way and landed in the
Confederate Congress, and James A.
Garfield ran fifteen miles the other wav,
and found rest and shelter in the United
States Congress." This is the truth of
history. If out of this military heroes
can be made, had we not best tro back
and raise the statues of Napoleon and
Wellington an inch or two higher in the
temple of fame? Neither Gai field nor
Marshall will live in history as great
warriors. Neither was the proper t imber
out of which to make a great soldier. If
Gen. Rosecrans was tardy in his military
operations, he was certainly verv prompt
in emphatically characterizing Mr. Gar
field's letter as untruthful. Gen. Rose
crans resented Mr. Blaine's assault with
a promptness singularly at variance with
his military sluggishness. Mr. Iilaine
has done more to discredit the memory
of his dead fiiend than to honor it.
When two such distinguished doctors
differ as granny Hoar and Jr red. Grant,
who shall decide ? Hoar says Conkling
is unfit to be judge, and Col. Grant says
he is eminently fitted for the position.
Conkling's reason for declining the
gown is a good one. If by some consti
tutional quibble Guiteau's case should
come before him, he could not in the
gown face the man that put the gown
upon him. The Stalwarts draw well in
the "lottery of assassination." Conk
ling a gown. Grant a pension, Sargeant
a ministership, and Jack Logan's son a
paymastership in the army.
The most solemn farce that has latelv
been enacted at Washington was a dozen
or so officers of various grades ringed
out in full uniform with swords, snshes,
epaulets, and all the paraphrenalia of
dress parade, to try Sergeant Mason for
shooting at Guiteau. Not one of them
probably could give a correct definition
of the crime with which the prisoner
was charged, or the weight of evidence
necessary for conviction ; but there they
sat, clearing the room now and then of
spectators for the purpose of consulta
tion. There was no excuse for trying
Mason by a court-martial. He was
guilty of nly a slight offense against
military law, but had committed a grave
offense against the laws of the District
of Columbia, and on a spot clearly within
the jurisdiction of its courts.
RATHER SUGGESTIVE.
John Sherman's former colleague, ex
Senator Thurman, retires to private life
poorer than when he went into public
life. Twenty years ago, Blaine, Sher
man, Allison, Windom and Wilson were
all Republican members of the House
together. They were all poor at that
time very poor. Blaine is now a mil
lionaire ; Allison is a millionaire ; Wil
son is a millionaire ; Windom is a mil
lionaire and Sherman is trebly a million
aire. There is much food for reflection
in the fact that these gentlemen man
aged to become wealthy on the same
salary that Mr. Thurman grew poor on.
"CULTURED" MASSACHUSETTS.
An industrious statistician has been
engaged in comparing sexual crimes in
"cultivated" Massachusetts for the last
four years, and the exhibit is anything
but complimentary to the morality of
the Bay State. Illegitimate births and
divorces increased much more rapidly
than did the population of the State.
The labors of the free lovers in Massa
chusetts have not been in vain in a State
which has always been ready to look into
the morals of the rest of the world. At
the meet ing of the New England Free
Love League the other day in Boston, it
resolved that polygamy as practiced by
the Mormonsshould be endorsed. Claim
ing to be a veritable vestal in chastity,
the home of the Pilgrim Fathers is de
veloping into a pariah. G. N. S.

TWO SUPPRESSED TELEGRAMS.
INTERESTING REMINISCENCES OF THE BEIOX
OF IDWIN M. STANTON.
Theexeitement over the recpntly published
Garfield-RospTar.s letters, which continue
to form a topic of conversation just now,
brines to the surface a hitherto forgotten
fact which will tend to further illustrate the
friendship and affection which existed be
tween Garfield and Rosecrans nearly a vear
after the date of the letter published fn" the
Sun was written. It will be remembered
that Gpn. Garfield was elected a delegate
from Ohio to the Baltimore convention in
1SR4, which nominated Prpsidpnt Lincoln.
After that hart bepn effeetpn Garfield, re
membpring his old gpnpral, telpgraphed to
Rosrcrans, who was thpn in St. Louis, as
follows : "Vicp Presidency going a begging,
will you accept ?" Genpral Rospcrans hand
ed the telegram to a well known major gen
eral who was in his office at the time, and
said: "What would yon advise?" Ilis
friend advised him to wire bis acceptance,
" which was done. This answer was never
received by General Garfield, and it was af
terward ascertained that it hart hppn up
: pressed by Stanton, then Secretarv of War,
who vised every telegram at that time. As
a consequence Andrew Johnson received
the nomination which General Rosecrans
I would undoubtedly have received had his
answer reached Garfield, and the following
i events r.f Lincoln's death would have placed
! him in the President's chair, which was sub
j seqnently filled by Johnson. The snppres
' sion of the telegram lost General Rosecrans
; the Presidency. With referpnee to the sup
pression of telpgrams the following authen
; tic statement is given bv a prominent par
; ticipator in the occurrence. Just prior to
tne Da:tie ot reiierfcksburg, while General
Burnside was in command. General Rufns
A. Ingalls, who was quartermaster of the
army of the Potomac, and another distin
guished General desired to telegraph to Sen
ator Nesmith, of Oregon, then in Washing
ton, a private matter. They were well
aware of the espionage of the'War Depart-
i merit, ami ,now to convey the desired infor
j motion to their frU-nd puzzled them for a
while. A brilliant idea seized them, howev
i er, to send it in the Chenook toneue, which
they, being oid Pacific coast officers, were
j conversant with. They were also aware
that Senator Xesmith understood it. The
! dispatch was accordingly sent in that tongue,
! directed totlin Senator and signed "Ingalls."
j It fell Into Stanton's hands. All the experts
and linguists in the country were handed
; the mysterious telegram ; none could read it.
I Stanton became suspicions, and worried and
j desperate, and finally sent to New York for
i experts. Noue could translate it. After
' four days had elapsed Stanton addressed a
( note to the Senator to call at the War De
i partment, and on his arrival handed him the
telegram and demanded to know its purport.
Nesmith, who, as well known, was a thor
; ough U ar Democrat and a friend of Lincoln,
looked at the date of the dispatch and after
reading its contents assumed his Senatorial
dignity, and went for Stanton in a severe
tonsue-lashlng, and refused to tell hira the
contents. Nesmith immediately went over
to the White House and protested against
Stanton. Old Abe asked what was the na
ture of the dispatch from "liufe." Nesmith,
, translating It, read as follows : "We are go
ing to have a bpttle in a few davs. Are all
out of whisky. Come flown and bring some,
and we wili have a ni"e little gameof poker."
Lincoln laughed heartily and said: "Go
down. I will give you a pass for yourself and
friends." Nesmith with a partv went down,
taking sufficient commissary alone, and for
several days enjoyed liiniself. While thev
were all sitting in the tent on night engaged
in the seductive American game of pnker
the orderly brought in a telegram for Gen.
Ingalls, which read as follows : "Gen. In
galls, if you ever send a dispatch in such
language again, you will he cashiered from
the service. E. M. Stahton." Ingalls tossed
the message to NesmiMi, who, on reading it
replied. "Stanton ain't President of the Uni
ted States yet by a d d sight." Wasging-

The woist service that could have been
done to the memory of General Garfield was
to revive the discussion of his relations with
, General Rosecrans, whose chief of staff he
was whpn that fine soldier commanded the
Army of the Cumberland. The statement
was made a long while ago that Rosecrans'
removal from his command was due to Gar
field's influence, but both of them denied
this and when the subject was recalled by
Blame's eulogium General Kosacrans was
ratl.er disposed to defend Garfield from the
assumption of meddle-someness and quoted
a letter in which Garfield wrote to him long
before : "I have never been untrue to you in
thought, word or deed, lana or any othpr
liar to the contrary notw ithstanding. " Tne
publication of this single sentence may have
been well meant, but it prodnepd the effpet
that might have bepn expected. The editor
of the New York 6'im in a dangerous man to
assail. He has a fatally accurate memory
and while rarely attacking without cause he
will defend himself relentlesstv. Ilis meth

"FF.JIAI.F. COMPLAINTS."
Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y. : Dear
Sir I was sick for six years, and could
scarcely walk about the house. My breath
was short and I suffered from pain In the
breast and stomach all the time ; also from
palpitation and an internal fever, or burning
sensation, and experienced frequent smoth
ering or choking sensations. I also suffered
from pain low down across my bowels and
in my hack, and was much reduced in flesh.
I have used your -'Golden Medical Discove
ry" and "Favorite Prescription." and feel
that I am well. Verv respectfully,

A Ltfe Savtko Kiss. A very pretty story
is told by the Eouisville Courier-Journal to
the effect that an infant child of Joseph
Meyer, of that city, had apparently died after
a brief illness, and the mourning family and
friends were around it, when the child's
brother, about ten years old, bent over the
little one's body and kissed the pallid lips.
The baby's mouth was slightly open and in
kissing her the boy's breath was blown down
her throat. The little lips suddenly moved,
there were several sudden gasps, and respi
ration was resumed. At last accounts the
child was alive and is still improving.
Oxe Experience from Mast. I had
been sick and miserable so long and had
caused my husband so much trouble and ex
pense, no one seemed to know what ailed
me. that 1 was completely disheartened and
discouraged. In this frame of mind I got a
bottle of Hop Bitters and used them unknown
to my family. 1 soon began to Improve and
gained so fast that my hushand and family
thought it strange and unnatural, but when
I told them what had helped me, they said,
"Hurrah for Hop Bitters ! long may they
prosper, for thev have made mother well and
us happy." The Mother.
