f Ureal Failure,
Great men, like insignificant ones,
often commit blunders. Of the form
er, Grant is establishing a nationul
reputation for himself. He ig the
greatest failure of tho ago. lie is a
disgrace to the Slato if not to his par
ty. Cases in point: But recently
tho General Assembly of the Presby
terian Church was in session at Balti
more. As usual, with all largo bod
ies, the Assembly contained n number
of men who wore more concerned
nbont going to Washington to sco
Grant than to labor in a direct line of
thoir calling and duty. After a three
days' offort tbe doraagoguo provailcd
over tho Christian, and nrrangemonts
were entered into beforo adjourning
to proceed to Washington to see "tho
best Government tbo world ever saw."
Tbe body repaired thither, but did
not soo the $100,000 President, lie
was loo drunk for exhibition. But
Secretary of Stato Fish received tho
body. Tbo reception w-as thus vory
fishy.
- Shortly after retiring to Long
Branch ho was telegraphed from Cov
ington, Ky., to tbo. effect that his
father was at tho point of death.
But a number ono horso raco was on
hand at Long Branch, and four days
elapsed beforo "tho Govornmont" was
in r i.n to repair where duty culled it.
Grant reached tbo bedside of his futh
er just eight hours after boexpircd.
Next bo was to bo in Philadelphia
on tbo Fourth of July to hand the
Kswwnount Park over to tho Ccr.ton
nial Commissioners. That loyal city
was literally "on ond" to witness the
Jtoyal dollvory. But, after a long
wuit, Secretary of War, Belknap, ap
peared on tho stago as a substitute
and announced tbo delivery. Tho
dodgo was "too thin." Loyally ro
coivod a chill, hot as tbo day was.
Tbe newspapers announced that the
President was at Long Branch mourn
ing for his biographer. On the other
hand wo bavo it from tho Branch
that "tbo Government" was on tho
raco courso half tho day, and was
carried homo in tho ovoning on a
stretcher, DRUNK. '
Is it not a dingraco that the pooplo
of tho United States ato compelled to
puy A man f 100,000 yoar fur dis-,gi-ioing

The lllmannered Shah.
For two wookt past Europe bas
beoD convulsed by tho presence of
llvo Shah the Emperor of tbe Per
sian Empire to whom tbe crowned
beads of Europo have extended their
hospitalities. Tbe reflnod Europeans
soon learned aAcr the arrival of the
Slmh and his suite that good manners
wore not extensively cultivated in
Persia. A correspondent of the New
iork Herald arrived at Berlin, the
capital of Prussia, just aftor tho Tor
sinns had loft. Wo will lot him tell
what ho learned uftor his arrival. Tho

It is true that tho growth of tho
country since the cIoho of tho lust

tory of tho world. But unfortunately
wilh oor increase of wealth and reve-

decrease of oftlciul morality. Ono of
tlio results of this inverse pmirross ot
national wealth and official morality
is witnessed in tho immense Increase

The painful news reaches us from
Washington that the most serious re
monstrances havo boon tnndo against
tho appointment of John A Bingham,
of Ohio, as Minister to Japan, not on
account of his connection with the
Credit Mobilcr scandal, hut because
of bis Inteiupcrato habits. Ever sinoo
mo hanging ot Sirs. Surratt, this vice
as bocn growing npon him, nntil it
has now bocoino open and notorious.
ttuiuscd a rcnominulion lust summer
by tho peoplo of his Congressional dis
trict, Mr. Bingham has been promotod
to tho higher dignity of representing
this nation at the capitnl of Japan's
thirty millions of population. In view
of tho fact that Mr. Do Iiongowcd his
removal to charges similar to those
now mado amiinsi his succcessor. it Is
mposgiblo to account for the appoint
ment. It wotild seem'ns if wo wore
nxiotis to reveal our worst vices to a
coplo anxious to stndy American
ivilization. It is singularly improp
er tha'. a man who is constantly under
10 influence ot liquor should bo com
missioned to disgust, by his habits,
tho kooncflt and most progressive Pco-
plo of Asia. If Japan regards it as an
n stilt, tho blame must rest upon tho
power that commHsionod tbo now
