JVDOK BIACK to GIFTS
The gist of Judge Black's defense of
Belknap was that be had only followed
the example of bis superiors in return
ing"' official favor for gifts. Tho fol
lowing extract ranks with Charles
Siimnor'a great arraignment of Grant
forgilUUking: ;
1 dp not myself believe that prosonts
aro propor when taken by a publio
officer from a person who may by any
possibility in the future have an inter
est fn the officer's performance ot bis
duties. ' I think so bocause, in the firet
place, "a gift blindctb. the eye and
pervertetta the judgment of the right
eous " and also bocause, in the next
place, them gifts may bo used to cover
extential bribery'. I do not boliove
that the institutions of this country aro
perfectly safe in the bands of men who
habitually rocuivo presents from their
friends and constituents, or from any
body. ' But I say now that there is no
law which makes it a crime or misde
meanor; and that Is not all, there is
no code ot morals known to the public
men ot this ago, or to tho men who
now bold, office, which condemns it
It our fathers could have foresoon the
fatal degeneracy of their sons, porhaps
they niight have mado some provision
to prevent It ; but they inserted noth
ing to prohibit It either in their con
stitution or their statutes, and you can
not in your judicial capacity supply
the. c'ikuj omissus.
"I give you an office and you givo
me another office," or "I give you offleo
and you give me money;" what of
that? If the exchange was preceded
by a contract which mode one the con
sideration of the other, that is bribery
and corruption, but if there was no
contract of that kind the coso is other
wise ; and so It has been held in the
case of the greatest njd winest and best
men we have over had in this country.
Thcro was a time in 1825 when Mr.
Clay hold in his hand tho Presidency
of the United Sutos and could give it
to whom ho pleased. lie handed it
over to John Qnincy Adams, against
whom there was a large majority of
the States and the people. Ue did it
in opposition to Instructions almost
unanimous from his constituents, and
in the face of hia own reeordod opinion
that Mr. Adams was not a proper per
son to bo chief magistrate of tho coun
try. The first thing that Mr. Adams
did attor ho went Into office was to ap
point Mr. Cluy Socrctary of State.
Did tlieso two men bribe Ono another?
They were charged with making mer
chandise ot(the highcstoSivos under the
government. JhuefunitO which both
of thorn mado aa-ainst the charge oi
bribery was precisely tha same that
we mado hero, namely, that no proof
could be produced to show tbe previ
ous existence of a corrupt contract;
and the general public acquitted them
on that ground alono.
, Remember 1 do not hold up this
transaction as an example of publio
virtue. I admire much more the high
toned behavior ot Mr. Bayard twenty
five years earlier. Ho did not vote
for Mr. Jefferson, but be bad it in his
power to protract the election In the
House of Representatives so that Mr.
Jefferson and Col. Burr would both of;
them have boon defeated. For good
and sufficient publio reasons he deter
mined that he would not use that pow
er, but would retire from the contest
and allow Mr. Jefferson's friends to
elect him.' After a few days Mr. Ad
ams, the then incumbent of the Presi
dential chair, offered him the mission
to Franco. Ilosaid: "No; I cannot
got to my post ol duty until Mr. Jeff
erson shall ba) inaugurated, and then
he will have tho power to recall me.
I will not hold any office under him, as
I would virtually bo holding this oflico,
lest it might be inferred that 1 have
received a reward for tny action in tbe
Presidential election." . .
The most distinguished man per
haps that this country evor produced
certainly the greatest orator one
who was gifted with the most exquis
itely organized intelloot that ever was
bestowed upon any of the children ol
men was appointed Socrotary of Stato
by General Taylor. Ho said that ho
could not live upon the salary iu away
that would accord with bis tasto and
habits, and he invited his friends to
make present to him, and thoy did
centnbutoamong thorn $100,000, which
they invested, and gave him tha inter
est of it for tho remainder of bis life.
Was that bribery ? It was givon by
merchants who were pleased with his
advocacy of tho bank, by manufactur
ers whose interests be had promotod
by supporting a protective tariff, por
haps also by lovers of the Constitution
who admirod bim for tho noble defonse
be had mado of its principles. But
thore was no evidonce and no reason
to believe, and nobody overdid believe,
that it was given as a consideration
for the previous services or in pursu
ance of a contract for future services.
Therefore, and therefore alono, he was
held to be innocent
The manager from Massachusetts
Mr. Hoar said, speaking of lho Union
1'acifio railroad, that every foot oi that
road bad been founded in corruption
and built with tho wages ol iniquity.
That is true; and it is equally well
known that tbe managers of that cor
rupt concern gave lnrgo amounts ot
vnoir buk'k ana noniis to tne wile ol a
Senator who was l tor ward elected
vice-Presidont The wife received it
with tho full consent of tbo husband.
Though ho had voted for the charter
of the corporation and afterward voted
to extend its privileges and always
vindicated it by bis speeches on
this floor, there was no proof that
the spetchos arid and votes wore
tho consideration givon for the bonds
and the stock. The absence of that
proof loft bim in the lull possession
of the character which he had earned
by his previous lifo, his popularity
mouiioa no leather, bo livod respected
and honored, and died In tbe ordor oi
sanctity.
, Tbe members of tbo House of Ben
roeeototlros. who received the same
stock and bonds from tbe agonU of
tns aama company considered them
selves as fully acquitted when tbt com
mittee failed to find that there bad
bees any corrupt contract, and such
was tbe view of tho House when fori
that reason it refused to pass a voto of
consuro.
If Mr. Lincoln hud been impeached
und evidence .had beu . introduced
ngainst Uim, liko tho trulm you have
bore, to show tnat ins wile with or
without his knowledge took a present
from some contractor or aome officer,
who wonld have listened to it with
patience f M r. Lincoln could not havo
come Into this court with a higher
character than Genoral Belknup.
Judgo Davia would havo sworn lor
him that ho was all his life-time scru
pulously honest' The govornor of bis
States, and any number of cx-govor-
nors, and tho Senators in Congress
would have testified to the same fact
but he could not have had a character
one whit better than that which is mado
out by tionoral Belknap, and by tbo
force of that cbaractor tha aceusation
would havo boon awetit away liko
chaff upon lho summer thrashing-floor.
Nobody would havo thought uf o con
viction. ' '
That tho present chief tuugislruto
has taken large gifts from bis friends
is a fact as well known as any other
in tbe history ot the oountry. llo did
it oponly without an attempt at con
cealment or denial. Ho not only ro
coivod monoy and land and bouses und
geods amounting In tho aggregato to
an enormous sum, but he conformed
tbo policy of bis Administration to tha
interests and wishos of the donors.
Nay, ho did more than that; ho ap
pointed tho inon who brought him
these gifts to the highest offices which
he could bestow in return. Does any
body assort that General Grant was
guilty of an iinpeachublo crime in tak
ing theso prosonts oven though tho re
ceipt of tbem was followed by oflloiul
favors 'extended to tho giversf Do
wo not alt regard hintatill as ono of
the greatest heroes and sagos the world
has produced T Instead of being im
peached and ignominiously removed
frcm office be was fluttered and re
elected. This all happens justly upon
tho legal principle which commands
you to presumo everything in favor ot
tnnoccnoe. ' General Grant's woalthy
friends in Now York gave him monoy
not with any ovil design upon his in
tegrity, but becauso it was a pleasure
to themselves ; and the President ap
pointed tbem to office afterward not
bocauso they had bought his favor, but
becauso he thought the public good re
quired it ' This is tho just and legal
conclusion in ovory caso where there
is no proof of a bargain and no dis
tinct evidence of an Intent to influence
and bo influenced corruptly. Is the
law a respecter ot persons f Does not
a presumption which applies to the
President in tho plenitude of his power
apply with cquu) force and even with
stronger reasons to his fallen minister?
1 f tho liouao oi Representatives con
sidered this subject coolly and tamo to
thd deliberate conclusion that tho re
ception of a gift by a publio officer was
either in itsolf a punishable crimo or
evidence of a crimo it was a sin and a
shame to drag the Secretary of War
before this tribunal after ho became a
privato citison, whilo they allowed the
Prosidont to finish bis career in wicked
nosswithoutinterruption. Were those
gallant gentlemen afraid to tako the
chief magistrate by the throat, or did
they suppose that the Senate would
uso one measure of justioe for Grant
and another for Bolknap? No, they
did no such injustice either to you or
to thomBolvos. They thought thoy
could produce satisfactory evidonce to
show that tho gift to Bulknap was
something more than ' a gift, that it
was a bribe paid in pursuance of a con-
tract or In consideration of official
favors bestowed or promised. That is
what they allege in tho articles. But
having ultorly failed to prove it they
ought in honor and conscience to give
up the cose,
II tho giving or receiving of presents
is noccsHarily and in ils own nature al
ways criminal, and if the power to im
peach for It survives tbo torm of office,
why havo they overlooked tho offenso
of Judge Hoar who gave the President
a library of costly literature and law T
They might prove that tho giver of
that present was afterward commis
sioned by the recoiver as Attorney
General and nominated for Judge of
the Supreme court; and they might
argue with some show of reason that
those appointments being jnst hoc were
also propter hie. Duf tbo inference
would havo boon false ; for Judgo Hoar
in making tho gilt acted merely upon
tho impulses of a goncrous hoart, and
tho Prosidont promoted him because
he was the best man for tbe offices ho
put him in. Such boing tho natural
and the legal presumption in that case
why should it not also be made In this
case?
Anothor distinguished gentleman held
tho office of Attorney General and was
afterward by a kind ot translation sent
to tho court of St. James, whore ho
now resides as tho American plenipo
tentiary. Buforo ho got these high
places he not only admitted but pro
claimed that bo had subscribed 120,.
000 to a fund for the benefit of tho
President. 'Who' can provo that theso
acts were corrupt? Or who will dura
to assort It without proof?
more it anomor class ot cases, more
numorous than those, in which tho
law and publio opinion indulgo officers
in giving and recoiving money for their
personal purposes. A high-placed
gentleman wants to bo continued in
powor and to that end a certain num-
bor of popular votos is required, llo
demands from bis subordinates monoy
enough to got the votes and hecnlorcos
tho ordor by tho distinct notification
that whosoever refuses to contribnlo
will bo dismissed from his place
Theso very post-traders wore forced to
moko, onormous contributions in that
way and tho aggregate sum thus raised
for an Important election amounts to
many millions of dollars. Is this crlm
inal ? Certainly It ia, if you adopt tho
principlo of tho managers that ovory
voluntary paymont by an officer ia
ipso facto crime. Ia It corrupt? I
do not aay go, Jjut f you any that
ueiknap could not receive money from
juarsh without boing corrupt then you
condemn to ultor Infamy tho system
to which I reler. It pervades lho
wbolo cxoaitivo administration. If it
Do corrupt, then all the officers of the
government are thriving by corrup
tion alone. They can keen their nlaoes
if they pay for thorn in this way ; If
not, not lty that dishonest means
alone can thoy hope to gain promo-
nun. n imoiin man. to use tha Hirni-i
' -o-.v
of C'urrnn applied to a similar condi
tion of things in untitber country, Is
like a dead body iu a mill-pond ; he
Ilea quietly and .nLncurely at tho -bottom
at long aa there is any aounilncss
iu him ; but hit bulk expands with tho
gusea which corruption onvolves; "ho
becomes buoyant by putrefaction and
ri-'s as he mis." Kurcly it la not prop
er to say that this system Is corrupt
seeing that all tho great and good men
now in tbo oxeoutivu departments con
stantly practice it. Whether it is an
ovil that ought to be abolished or a
virtue to bo encouraged, is corluinly a
question on wliieli there la aomo differ
ence of opinion. Wliut I ussort is that
tbora is no law which forbids it, nor
no rulo of morality among publio offi
cers which, condemns it. That being
tho enso, is it not horrible to convict
this party who bos -certainly 'done
nothing worse ?
WHITE HOVSK DC AN DAI.
The editor of the Philadelphia Timet,
in alluding to the ' lamily Jars" which
occasionally tako place in tho White
House, over tho "crooked whisky"
dealers, records the following :
Slowly as tbo "White House coin
piicity" in the whisky frauds eotnos
out, it appears rapidly enough. Tho
country may prefer to know the whole
Uoroules of tho thing from tbo actual
sight of a foot only, but it more of tbo
body of it must be exposed, the unoov
oring is at-rftOt interesting, however
painful. Tho testimony of ox-Trouitu-
ry Solicitor Hluford Wilson before tho
llouso ccnmitleo on the St. Louis
whisky trials is only to tho same dis-
graceful fuels already exposed, of tho
tampering by a favored army officer
and trusted uttucho of the Prosidont
with official documonts that happened
to point to himself. In the present
caso, llabcock is shown to have put
W. II." into one of Wilson's exhorts
lions to tho government prosecutor to
sparo no guilty man. Tbo interpola
tion must have boon a very stupid
trick, if tho design was to show Wil
son in the light of an enemy to tho
W bite llouso. For there was a Solici
tor's lottor-presB copy of tho original
showing tho fact of addition and forg
ory. But stupid or not, it seems to
havo hurt its author with tho Prosi
dent much loss than its object. Wil
son could not clear himsolf of suspicion
in that qnarter, thouirh ono would
think ho had gamo enough of a smaller
kind to occupy his timo wilboutueing
anxious to bunt in tho direction of tho
White House. Babcock certainly did
not have to leave it on tho sight by
lho President of the audacious "W. H."
stuck into an honest letter. And what
is to bo thought of such a fact, ovonat
this late day ? According to Wilson,
tho first coolness between the White
House and the Treasury was when
Bubeock bocamo implicated in tho
frauds. Till then the Prosidont show
ed no lack of co-operation in prosecu
ting them. . And when told by Wil
son, who naturally wanted to make
some defenso against unjust suspicion,
that Babcock was suspected, partly on
tho score of his "Sylph" correspond
ence, which Porter had explained by a
very silly story of a woman, tho Pres
ident, it is said, "indignantly denied
the story, and brushed it away with a
contemptuous gesture," omphasizing
hia faith in Babcock's Innoconce, be
cause, "if guilty, bo was the most
guilty wretch in tho country." This
may be vory good friendship, but what
sort of statesmanship is it ?
CUSTER AND JUS MEN.
A study of the battle-field of the
Littlo Big Horn has revealed tho story
of Custor's splendid fight as plainly as
it is likely evor to be known. The
position of the bodies of our slain sol
diers shows that the attack was mado
by throe columns, at threo different
points. One column was commandod
by Major Reno, the second by Captain
lientoen and the third by Custor. Of
the movements of tho first two com
mands wo were already informed. It
is now evident that Custor, with fivo
companies, marched northward threo
miles from the Indian village, and on
the opposite side of the river. He
tbon mado an attempt to cross and at
tack tho village, but was opposed by
tho savages, and thus cut off from com-
munication with Rone and Beuteen,
who had crossed below, at the point
whore tho forces separated. Custor't
only salvation then was to retroat in
tho direction of the advancing infantry
of Gibbon. Ho divided his littlo force
into two parts, and oach made dospor-
ate resistance to the onslaughts of tho
Indians. The eloquent field tells the
direction taken by each company,
whore the first fatal shot took effect,
whoro tho skirmish line was formed
and swept away, where a final junction
of tho survivors and the last gallant
stand were made, and whoro, surround
ed by bis brothers and best loved com
rades, the hemic commander succumbed
braver than the bruvost among the
vory last to die.
A Post Mas-tub Purchask. Tho
Warren Leilyrr says
"It sooms that tho applntmont ul
Colonol Walkor to tho pnstmastorship
al line was tbo result of a purchase on
the part of his friend, C. M. Rood, who
offered to give threo thousand dollars
to tho campaign fund, and more it
noccusary. Col. Walkor would do woll to
stand down the hall ; but ho will not,
nor will ho bo asked to do so while
Rood will havo an honor thrust upon him
Money obtains appointments in those
degenerate days, under Grant, arid
Hayos endorses Grant. Does it Bcom
right to endorse such a system ? Here
is a warning to postmasters. Givo
liberally to tho campaign fund or stand
as'ulo lor some ono who has a conplo ol
inousttim that can go toward the pur
chase ol votos for Hayes and Whoclor.
Why should the spirit of Republican
man bo proud ? Will honost mon rat

is Iniquity in tho administration, and
the purpose ia to continuo It undor
Hayes. Will the honest voter ondorso

or upon a friend, like Reed. The Krlo

VAUKE GOODWIN ON TILDES.
In a long Setter to tbe Now York
7Vtounf, Mr. ParkoGoodwiii,son-in-lttW
of William C. Bryant, and all hia life a
worker in and fbr tho Republican party,
until its corruption (breed him to seek
now political alliances, thus spouks of
tho Democratic aundidntu fur tha Presi
dency i
Who, then, is Samuel J. Tilden?
In reply, good friends of tha Con
ference, lot me speak to you from per
sonal knowledge. I have been inti
mately acquainted with Mr. Tilden for
nearly tiirty yours, and though 1 have
often differed with him politically,
sometimes even lumoutlng his strong
reliuneoon purty agencies, I havo never
had the sliirhtost occasion to suspect
his ahsoluto integrity of purpose and
siucority of conviction. In all tho re
lations of private life ho is purity itself-
At the same time he bas always been
a public-spirited citizen, taking an ac
tive part in whatever concerned tho
welfare and progress of the community
in which ho lived. His devotion, in
deed, to publio affairs began while he
was still a youth, and his early dis
cussions of intricate questions ol finance
attracted tbo attention of maturor
minds by their singular penetration
and judgmont. Professionally, he bos
tukun rank with Van Huron, Brady,
O'Conor, Graham, Evarts, Kirklund,
and other foremost lawyors, and In a
peculiar class of cases heavy and com
plicated railroad litigations ha Is ad
mitted to bo facile prince. His coun
sel, whon Important and decisive action
was Involved, bus boon deemed inval
uable. In still higher relations Mr.
Tildon socms to mo to combine, more
than any other man now bcloro tbo
public, hardly excepting Mr. Adams of
Massachusetts, the two grout kinds of
quality, theoretic and practical, which
form the true statesmen; a profound un
derstanding of tho philosophic grounds
of political opinion, and the sagacious
tact and energy of the man of business.
This union of theoretic Insight with
practical capacity bas boon singularly
shown in his administration of the at
fairs ol this State Now York is the
largest Commonwealth of the Union,
tho largost iu population, in Agricul
tural products, in manufacturing enter
prise, in commercial capital in a word.
in the diversify and importance of its
business relations; and the Governor
ship here is not a mere clericul funo-
tion, confined to tho appointment of
notaries and tbo sii;ninir of commis
sions, as in many of tho newer western
States, but an onerous, intricate, and
responsible trust. The Governor is in
vested with the veto, which makes
him a part of tho legislative power,
whilo his executive connection with
tho complicated business of tho quaran
lino, tho suit works, tho State prisons
and charities, and an immense system
of canuls, imposes uon him tho most
varied and difficult duties. Mr. Tilden
in his short tenure of the placo has
evinced a masterly fitness for all its
duties. Ho bas defeated a multitude
of ill-considered and improper bills,
rectified many minor errors of Admin
iatration, overthrown a fraudulent and
giganlio conspiracy, and reducod taxa
tion from over 115,000,000 in 1875 to
loss than 18,000,000 in 1876, with an
assurance that if the changes he ha
suggested are followed, tho decrease
will be two or three millions more in
18771
THE WORD OF PROMISE TO-.
THE EAR,.
Tho following well-written review
of Hayes' letter of acceptance, is ex
traded from tho Philadelphia Times,
and is worthy of a perusal by all, as
boing tho view taken from nn Inde
pendent standpoint :
Rutherford B. Hayos, the Presiden
tial candidate created by Morton, Conk-
ling and Camoron, and through whom
thoy expoct to part the raimont of Re
publicaniam in the future, bas given
bis first ossny to the public,
in rosy promisee Mr. Jlayea is an
artist. Being the creation of Morton
and Conkling and Cameron, they can
afford him the widost latitudo to bring
tho garlands of victory as their crowns,
aud tbey did not evon betray concern
when Carl Schura sat with their can
didate, and held hia ear fur tbe old
timo promise that tho masters had
brokon to his hope, as thoy hurled him
over tho Republican battlements and
proclaimed hkm as outsido of all healthy
political organizations, They wel
corned all that the luxuriant fancy of
the Gorman orator could give to the
letter of acceptance by way of adorn
ment, and did not so much as cherish
a fear that all may nut bo woll when
tho fruits of victory arc to bo gathered
Long before tho 'Cincinnati council
tho harvest that Mr. Sehurs believed
to be but blossoming a woek ago, bad
boon parted by the men who made
iiiiuionora u. iiayos. it or ton is as
secure to-day in hia Premiership under
the Republican reform administration
as if Carl Schura had never whispered
at Columbus ; Cameron, the youngor,
is as sale for the Treasury portfolio as
phghtod faith can make It, with un
limited power to reward his friends
and punish bis enemies; Conkling bas
tbo absolute control of the vast patron
ago of tho administration in New York,
with special authority to make Curtis
bite tbe dust as soon as the shouts of
victory go up from tho Republican
multitude, and Bristow, tho pationt ox
that trode lho corn for the speculators
of Cincinnati, will find no placo to lay
his bead whon the Hayes reform shall
come to be exhibited undor the direc
tion of tho loaders who have cboson
their agent to do for them what they
could not dare to do luomsolves.
Smoothly as the Hayos letter glides
along before tho casual reader, whon
it is tasted by the obvious truths which
confront it, the absolute llttlonoss or
bald hypocrisy of ils chief features bo-
come painlully apparent His un
qualified and elaborate plodgos in favor
of civil service reform are tbe sovorost
strain upon the credulity of the nalion.
It tho men who nominated him for a
moment believed one-half he promises
in favor of civil service reform, he
would bo beaten fifty thousand in Ohio,
noarly twice that in Indiana, would
not figure much above scattering In
I'eiiiiBylvaina, and Now York, and
Vermont would be doubtful. Tho tens
of thousands of Federal offices In the
various States aro now oonfetjaedly
filled by the most debauchod form of
tbe system that Mr. Hayos promises
unconditionally to overthrow, and if It
were bcllcvod by his party loaders that
his promises were not mere songs to
moonshine isililieal dreamers, they i
would drive him froni tho ticket or re
sent bis arrogant Integrity by over
whelming defeat But they well know
that it la but tbe promise given to the
reform car to be broken to tho hope.
Of all men interested In the pending
canvass, tho Mortons and Conkliiiics
and Cauieroiia aud Grants and Bab
cocks and Kelloggs host understand
how. utterly meaningless aro tho poetic
platitudes of their candidate. That
Hayes would prefer Just such a gov
ernment as ho foreshadows in his letter,
wo do not doubt; but when he comes
to administer it, will he hurl tbe
swarm of Camoron plaeomon from
power In Pennsylvania? Will be
ompty out tho Conkling dependents
from end to end in the Kuipite Slate?
Will he ostracise the Morton tribes of
reckless oflleiala in Indiana? Will he
turn back tho hands in tho desolated
South anil destroy the Clayton, Spen
cer, llrueo, rauerson, uorsey aim
Pinehback hosts of plunderers? If
his pledge means anything in the lino
of honesty, it means that be will sweep
tho whole civil service out of place,
and ond tho degenerate power of Grant
by culling new officials to ovory public
trust, over the head of the leaders who
have disgraced the service by their
favorilcsand partisan henchmen. This
Mr. Haves dare not do; and more, ho
Iocs not mean to do it. Had be givon
an honest thought to the broad plodgu
ho has made to a nation that is sick
at heart with the greedy partisan
hacks, forced into place by tho men
who made Mr. Hayes a Presidential
candidate, ho would have paused be.
foroulteringsosballow a political deceit.
Equally unstatesmanlike is bis politi
cal sky-rocket on lho school question
Ho is of the littlo minds which grasp
such floating drillwood on tbe political
current. In bis own Stato, where bo
mado.it save him in an otherwise hope
less canvass, tbe fundamental law
teaches all that he bos evor taught on
the subject. It Is so in Pennsylvania,
and every other State whore there are
Constitutional provisions on tbe sub-
ject ; and there is not any party in any
Commonwealth to-day that would tako
issue on the subject if it could, or that
could do ao if it would. As well might
Mr. Hayes insist that the Bun shall not
be hindered in its westward course, or
that tbo stars shall not be whirled with
their spheres. It is simply the clap
trap or littleness; tbo wail of hcl pious
ness. It is a kin to his high-flown as
surance of peace" and protection to the
South, when ho knows that Socrctary
Camoron is now planning his campaign
in the reconstructed States, to win
four of them for Hayes, in defiance of
the ballot, by bayonets and Galling
guns. Si or does Socrotary Cameron
rush to the overthow of the ballot and
probably to the studied branch of tbe
peace of a whole section, without know
ing his reword. Ho is to win, and Mr.
Hayes is to pay- He is to wrest vic
tory from Die peoplo at tho cost of law
and of blood if need be, and Mr. Hayes
is to crown tbo chieftain witb the biirb
est honors of his administration.
Stripped of poetry and platitudes, of
blatant hypocrisy and stupid torn tool,
ory, such are the plain lessons of Mr.
Hayes' letter of acceptance.
Hold tik Fort. From all parts qf
the country comes cheering intelligence
lor tbe Democracy. Camp fires are
are soon on hill and in valley, and tbo
indications are that a sweeping victory
awaits tbe Democratic host. The lines
are advancing, massed for lho conflict
with banners unfurled and batteries
unmasked. Therelore, cheer up, boys,
