Bead tbe startling disclosures ot
fraud portrayed on our ouUido this
woek.
Democrats, remember that tho votos
cast this year not only count for 1879,
but lor the Frosidontial contest of
1880. How important, therefore, to
go to the election this Fall.
Tho names of quite a number of
candidates appear in our columns this
week who are willing to accopt tip
buzzard of serving the people for tho
foes oi the oflloes to which they aspire.
A Booming Majority. Tho Demo
cratic majority in Kentucky, notwith
standing tho light voto polled, is
greater than it was two years ago
when McCrcury was elcctod Governor
over Harlan. A special to the Cincin
noil Enquirer says it will reach 40,000.
Vonderpul Relations. The Pitti-
burgh Telegraph says : "Jos. G. Blaine
is a cousin of Tom Ewing, whose sis
ter is tbe sister-in-law of John Sher
man, nncle of the wife of Senator Don
Cameron, whose sistor is the wife of
Wayne MacVoagh, of Pennsylvania."
A HlBERABL! DeMAOOOUK. 1 1 18 DO-
ticoable that Senator Anthony hasn't
dropped a single tear over the afflic
tions of soldiers at the Capitol, since it
was shown that he hunted the boys-
in-blue out of the Rhode Island Cus
tom House in order to put in his ablo
bodied, stay-at-home relations.
Wednesday, August 27th, is the last
ibsuo, according to our party rules, In
which the names of candidates for
connty offices can appear. All had
hotter be on band by the 20th, so as
to be on the safe side. Bettor be
week too soon than a week too late.
Solid No. Oni The Democrats
carried everything before them in
Kentucky, on the 6th inat Last year
tbe Greenbackers elected five of tbe
seven membors ot the Legislature.
This year tbo Democrats olect the
wholo (even. The vote throughout
the State was light; but it looks now
as though the Democratic majority'
would be larger than ever. Commun
ism seems to have no foothold in tho
State of Clay.
Startling Frauds Our first and
fourth pagos are dodicatod this woek

ever perpetrated by men nnder oath
in any Government. The names of
the thievos are given as well as tho

"Toi Foolirt." Wo notice that
there are still soma crazy people out
sido of oaf Asylums. For instance:
A number of Radical editors have rais
ed this question : "Will Wallace vote
for Barr for State Treasurer?" It is
currently repotted tbat theoditor who
sports a great name JOHN BANIS
TER GIBSON Kinsloicot the Lock
Haven Republican, Is the proprietor of
the brain which raised this silly in
quiry., lie is a combination of cox
comb, snob, and hypocrite, and relies
upon people who are disfranchised of
all his qualifications toahovehira along,
The fact that he raised this quontion,
ia conclusive with throe-fourths of tbe
voters In this Commonwealth, who
know tho editor In question, and that
whatheitab be knows to be not
trae ; and lie knows he lias. Senator
Wallaca ia just aa likely to commit
uicide (and who believes that) be
tween this and election day, at to not
rotator Barr. He never playi the
aneak on his party, aociety, or the'
Church. He is no Ishmttlite.
JUVOS CHURCH.
Tbo name of this eminent jurist ia
being brought' forward -iiy -leaJirrg
Democrats in tbe Kant fur President,
and in New York be is named lor Gov
ernor. Tbe enterprising editor of tbo Wauli
ington Pott remarks:
Tbo Mew York Sun has kindly un
dertaken to inform us who Sanfnrd H
Church Is. So Indeed have filly other
journals, with surprising celerity and
enthusiasm. But as tha Sun has com
pressed its inlormation within limits
tbat boar some relation to our availa

The editor of tho Port then con
tinues :
"The extent of 'the surprise' oreated
by our question, and tbe dense ignor
ance which it implied, seems to have
been disproportioned to the intelli
gence elicited. It is quite possible that
tbe very question we asked has not
yot been answered. Wo did not Book
to know uho Judgo Church was, or
where he lived, or what his official rank
was. Tbe directory would have told
us that, and one of New York's gor
geous legislative manuals for tbe cur
rent year would havo boon choke-full
of information on the subject it we
had needed it. What we throbbed to
know was, why Sanford K. Church,
Chief Justice of tho Now York Court
of Appeals, stood liko Saul, so many
heads and shoulders above his Demo
cratic brethren aa a possible Presiden
tial candidate. Every three or four
years when Presidential possibilities
have been canvassed, an interested
world bos been asked to wait a lew
minutes nntil somebody could run up
to Albany and dig np one Sanford E.
Church, who was known by a select
few to be buried there. It he could
only be Induced to run, the party could
at once disponso with doubts and fears
with doubt and love as well as no
other favorito could stand for a mo
ment in tho presence oi Sanford E.
Church. It occurred to us, thorofore,
to ask, no more for our own than for
the information of thousands of other
Democrats who want to see the boat
man nominated, what Judge Church
had dono that rendered him so availa
ble. Tbe reply is, ho is an accomp
lished scholar, an ablo lawyer, and a
great man. We take it tbat every ac
complished scholar and ablo lawyer is
a great man, but it does not follow that
tho happy possessor of those qualifica
tions is always an available candidate
for the Presidency. Tbat Judge Church
presides witb singular urbanity shows
tbat bo is also good man ; but that
can be said of many judge. Mr. Ev
arta is said to be a great lawyer, but
we do not consider bim any more fit for
the Presidency than tho Fraud he
helped create and now serves. Caleb
Cushing was the most accomplished
scholar in the United States, and bad
no superior as a lawyer. But iow
thought him tit for the Presidency.
Still, Sanford E. Church may be all of
these, as well as all tbat these others
were not He may be, as wo have of
ten hoard him apostrophised, "the best
and ablest Democrat in tbe great State
of New York;" be may be, beside, the
most popular man who could bo nam
ed in connection with the contest of
1880 ; and yet a great many people
will be foolish enough to inquire how
be has become so. What has he ever
done for bis party ? Not many years
ago, we remember, he was beseeched
by Democrats inside and outside of
the State to lead tbe Democratic ticket
as a candidate for Governor, and al
though It was declared that no othor
man could heal the dissensions then
threatening not only the success, but
the very life of the party, he declined.
He was too poor, we beliove, to even
much as save his Slate to th Democ
racy and the Union.
If he ia a groat lawyer, a whole-
souled patriot, an accomplished scholar,
and can carry New York at any time
against anybody, thero never was
greater need of him than now. H
should be nominated for Governor at
once. We are sure we hope he is all
tbat ia claimed fur bim. We do not
object to bim because be is unduly ad
mired. It was no spirit of hostility to
his candidacy that inspired our ques
tions or baa led to these observations.
We are only seeking important in
formation. If the Judge ia nominated
for President by the National Domo
oratio Convention we shall most cor
tainly support bim. It is not impos
sible that we may urge him aa our fa
vorite for a nomination. Before we
do either tbe one or the othor, bow
ever, we want to clearly understand
what right he has to seek the prize at
all. What baa he done for his party
in the years that are gonof
A Prooresbivi Mar, John Mc
Kay, a Brooklyn shoemaker, aged 22,
was arraigned in the Court of that city
last week for bigamy, and before tbe
oase closod no loss than three wivet
turned np, claiming bim as their "law
fully wodded husband." He has boen
a regular attendant of Besoher's church
for Alteon years. John should not be
persecuted for what bo has been practi
cally taught by bis pastor, and the
Court in that city assumes a groat deal
of unwarranted authority whon It at
tempts to intei fore with the progressive
ideas of the age aa laid down by the
Beechor persuasion.
Good for Luzerne. The editor of
Wilka-Barre Leader says ; "The Indi
cations are that D. O. Barr, tha Dom
oe ratio candidal for Stat Treasurer,
will poll a rousing vol in this and
Lackawanna counties. Peter Sutton
ia doubtless a clever old gentleman, but
lew of th cltiaena of those two coun
ties will throw away their votes upon
bim."

THE POOR SOLDIER.
Reviving aa far as poosiblo all the
vencmtiia hatred of tbo days of robes
lion and civil war, the Radical-Republican
party is constantly prating in its
platiorms and from the rostrum about
the unfair treatment ot maimed and
crippled soldiers who have held posi
tions in the Sonato and House ot Rep
resentatives at Washington, and who
have beeu discharged since the Democ
racy came iuto power in Congress. In
the firnt plAceTTuese fftaiforms, organs
and speakers he; there are moro
maimed and disabled Union soldiers in
the employ of tho Senate and House
to-day, than tburo ever bus boon be
fore ; tbe soldiers' roll in both LTouscs
being filled with bona fide veterans.
The recent removal of a non-legged
soldier in the Senate has caused a fresh
outburst and contributed a whole plank
to tho platform ot the Pennsylvania
Radicals. The truth ot the matter Is,
tbe individual in question, was romov
ed for Insubordination and his place
filled by another Republican, at tho
request of Senator Don Cameron. The
new man Is certainly a veteran soldier,
for Cameron loves the veterans. Thon,
too, Quay's resolutions or plank Jin tho
State platform was just a trifle incon
sistent, when the fact is re-callod, that
just a few days previous to the assem
bling of the Republican Stale Convon
tion he discharged from the Slate depart
ment a one-armed soldier to make room for
a ttay at home ward politician. Be
sides, it may bo well enough to in
quire if this non-legged soldier dis
charged from a position in tbo Senato,
did not in all probability lose his logs
by a shot fired from a cannonier of
Longstroct's Division, an ex-Confeder
ate gentleman now holding a lucrative
offlco under lbs Government by the
original grace of Grant and tho con
tinued favur of His Frauduloncy de

Bad, Bad I All Bad 1 1 The Potls-
ville Chronicle, in alluding to the do
volopments of the Wallace Committee,
remarks : "Senator Wallace has stirred
up something of a hornot's nost among
the Republicans ot Iowa. It appears
from tho testimony of Mr. Gorham,
Secretary of tbe Republican National
Committoo, that ton thousand dollars
were sent to Chairman Hatton, of the
Republican Slate Committee of Iowa,
for tho purposo of preserving tbo pun
ty of tbe ballot-box -in tbat stalwart
Republican State, and securing tho re
turn to Congress of a solid Republican
delegation, But so far from protect
ing the purity ot the ballot, two or
throe Democrats and Groonbackors
were elected to Congress, and now
some of tbe most influential Republi
cans aro beginning to riso up and en
quire what Mr. Hutton did with that
ten thousand dollars. It is not sur
prising that such irregularities should
result from tho delugo of official ras
cality and corruption at Washington
which has swept away all tbo barriers
of publio and official honesty. As the
old cock crows the young one loarns."
Tno8E Loyal Fellows. The Wash
ington Post, in alluding to tbe Ohio
canvass, remarks : "What has become
of th 'leyal' party that was howling
at tbe 'Confederate Democracy' in Ohio
a little while ago? Has Citizen Fos
ter's crowd abandoned the notion of
running this canvass on war issues ?
After boasting that there was 'blood
enough in the old shirt lor another
campaign,' aro the 'loyal' going to fold
that banner? Why this weakening?
Whence this flattening out ? Will not
Citizen Foster mount tbe stump to
brand Ewing and Rice as 'red-handed
traitors f Will he not crush thorn
with tbe awful epithet, 'Confederate
Democrats?' He could prove that they
wore very moan Confederates during
the war, while be was as remote as
possible, and loyally engaged in buying
and soiling snoop's pelts and things. It
saddena us that we hear no more of
this 'loyal' party, whose members al
ways vote at they shoot."
Till Lincoln Memorial Man. No
man not even Booober's praise was
sounded londor by the virtuous and
loyal millions ten yoars ago than tbat
of tha Rov. Newman Hall, the noted
English Congregational pulpit orator,
who has obtained a decreo of divorce
from bia wife on account of bor adul
tery with one Richardson, a stable
keeper. The case has boen on trial
dunng a weok past and created
great sensation. Tbe wifo brought
counter charges of tho same charactor
against bor husband. Mr. Hall ad
mitted during the trial that he bad
abandoned a previous action of a simi
lar nature bocauso ho fearod it would
bo an obstacle to bis efforts to raise
funds for a new chapel and fur tbe
"Lincoln Memorial Tower," a monu
mentcommeuiorativo of Abraham Lin
ooln.

Positivi Knouoh. An exchange
remarks : " 'Uncle Jake' Ziogler, tbo
author ol 'Zieglor's Manual of Parlia
mentary Practice,' says of ex-Speakor
Hall in his Butler Herald: 'He knows
aa little about Parliamentary law as
any man of prominence in the Stato,
and would sooner violate a rule at any
lime than enforce it' This it rather a
sevor oriticiam on a man who bat
presided over the Senate cf Pennsyl

A GOOD THING.
Tho editor of tho Johnstown Tribune,
ftiraharnnosn, often ussunjcs wonderful
proportions. The editor of the Cam
bria Freeman last week took him on a
fly, while on board ot u Campbell, in
tbia way : "Tiro Johnstown Tribune at
Friday last, in relorring to a W anb
ington dispatch which staled that let
ters had boen received there from
prominent Peunsylvauians suggesting
the names of several citizens ot this
State, 'ox-Congrcssinan Campbell' wi-
ing among tho number, in connection
with the vacant mission lo England,
and believing that Jacob M. Campbell,
of Johnstown, was tho 'ex-Congress
man Campbell' referred to in the dis
patch, puis itself to the trouble ot say
ing most emphatically that 'he ((ion
oral C.) is not an applicant for tho
Mission to the Court of St. James.'
Tho Tribune don't understand tho dis
patch. Tho ex-Congressman Camp-
boll referred to is James 11. Cuuipboll,
who was raisod in Sunbury and after
hia admission to the bar settled in
Philadelphia, was olectod to Congress
from that city for two lorms, we think,
and was afterward appointed Minister
to Denmark. Ho is a man of consid
erable ability, but not onough to fit
him for the English Mission. Although
tho Tribune thinks that General Camp
bell 'cannot help but feel ftattorod by
having his namo prosenlod in such
goodly company for so important it
position,' we differ with it and will do
General C. the justice to say that in
our judgment he correctly understands
just what public position ho iscapubluof
filling, and that if ho C3tild find out a
man who had written a letter to his
friend Hayos recommending bim for
Minister to England, and if ho could
docny him into a private r:om, ho
would give him a pieco of his mind in
a few short, vigorous and sulphurous
sentences, tbat would causo each par
ticular hair of his bead to stand on
ond. Whatevor elso General O. may
bo, ho Is not a Uartrnnft who can't
soo himself as othors boo him, and is
always ready for anything from a for.
eign mission, or a seat in the Cabinet,
down to tbo Philadelphia Postmaster
ship."
That thoro la a Natloaal Conttltutioa tlierooan
bono doubt. Tho Damoorata appoal to It aa
guaranteeing btato rlcnta. llut toe lonlelcrato
wing oontooda tbat tho Statoa aro aoreroigo, aad
therefore nolieaa righto independent of the Cjo-
alltntlon. In feet, the State righto atend flrit,
Cooatitutloa or BO Conatitutlon. Aerra American,
In answer to tbo foregoing Bluff,
tbo Philadelphia Record chides this
way :
"Our stalwart contemporary cannot
havo studied tho history of this coun
try to much purposo if it lias not
loarnod that tbo States oxistod before
the Constitution, and that all tbo
powors conferred upon tbo Nutional
Government wore expressly delegated
by tho States. It is woll tbat this
controversy ovor tbo reservod rights
of tho Stales has arisen, for, witb a lit
tie moro frankness on tbo part of those
who aro socking to create tho impres
sion that a now rebellion is at band,
tho result cannot but bo productive of
good. The frankness is needed on the
part of the Republican", who porsist
in declaring that tha old doctrino of
State sovereignty or the right of nulli
fication and secession is in dispute.
Tbo deception here is so bald that it
cannot win. There exists no moro
reason fur excitement and passion ovor
the question of national regulations of
olections than with regard to tho
policy of protoction. And yot the Re
publican loadors and journals are lash
ing thomsulves into fury and aro de
nouncing tbe Confederate brigadiers in
unmeasured terms. The North Ameri
can, the Press and tho Evening Bulletin
are daily fighting the war ovor again,
and in their mad gleo over a feigned
issue of a second rebellion they aro al
ready figuring up the Republican
gains. Tboy should calm their fears.
There exists no danger of a now rebell
ion, unless it bo a revolt of tbo peoplo
against tho mendacity tbat would play
with their passions and their fears."
Our Bird Wins Aoaih. Tho Phil
adelphia 'J'tmej relates tho following:
"Tbe German Government dislikes
dreadfully to loose its hold over a Ger
man, and not a fow emigrants to this
country havo bad serious trouble about
claims for military service which tho
authoritiea of the Fatherland insisted
tboy still had a right to prefer. One
of the notable casos of Ibis fort has
just boen settled. A German named
lioissolicr camo to this country from
Scbloswig Holstoin ovor twenty-five
years ago, and settled in St Louis,
where two sons wore born to him.
During their boyhood the father re
turned to Gormnny and look thorn
with him, but tbey did not remain long,
and before eithor bad attained tbo ago
of twonty ono wore in St Louis en
gaged in business. Some ti mo ago no
tice was sorved upon thorn that thoy
owed military sorvico to the Gorman
Government, and the demand was
made that thoy should return and per
form it. As may be supposed, they
were in no haste to respond, and soon
after notico cuino tbat they bad boon
conscripted. Safe in St. Louis, con
scription had few torrors for them, but
tho Gorman Government had othor
weapons in reserve. Tbe father has
considerable property, part ol which
would eventually come to the sons,
and tho authoritiea triod to compel
tboir return by taking steps to confis
cate their proepectivo share of their
father's wealth. By this time tbe
young mon concluded to appeal to our
government Rid soo if something
couldn't be done about It Secretary
Evarts took hold of tho matter earn
estly, and the result is tho backdown
of the Gorman authorities from their
position and another victory lor the
American eagle."
A Stalwart Son We learn from
our exchanges that one Silas M. Pat
terson, a son of ex-Sonalor Patterson,
ot South Carolina, late of Juniata
county, Pa., has turned up in Chicago
in an unenviable rolo. Ho reached
Chicago from San Francisco a lew
weeks ago and began to live In swell
style. Bearing personal letters from
Secretary Sherman, Socrotary McCrs
ry, General Devon, General Key and
otbors, be soon placed himself in the
good graces of William Henry Smith,
Collector Harvey and all th Govern
ment pooplo. The other day he told
Mr. Smith that he had just lost 11,800
bolting on tbe wrong horse, w.is dead
broke, expected a draft from Socrota
ry Shorman and would like, meantime,
lo borrow a tomporary loan on tome
family diamonds which luckily he had
with him. Ton scapegrace got thrco
or four thousand dollars on tbe dig
monds, which Warren Knight, a pawn
broker now claims to have loaned Pat
toraon. Tho lattor has disappeared.
Fatalities. Seashore bathing, like
Fourth of July celebrations, have their
falalilios. Not a wook has passed
since tho bathing toast in openod but
w are called upon to record the death,
by drowning, of from three to flvo per
sons. If suicido Is Intended, it is the
most magnificent manner of loaving
this Continent ever adopted ; other
wise it it sublime foolishness, because
there is no more real danger ol drown
ing than of being shot.
THAT BRILLIANT WAR
RECORD.
Soon alter tho .adjournment of the
Radical State Convention, tho party
leaders set about and made "a brilliant
war record" lor Samuel Butler, their
nominee lor Stuto Troasuror. A West
Chestor correspondent ol the Harris-
burg Patriot, who has been acquainted
with Mr. Butler, "from his youth up,1
says :
"In a recent issuo of your paper you
ask in what reirimeul did ho servo ?
IliTs information can readily bo had.
Thoro is a little story connected witb
this company which in tho present
aspect of affairs might not be unintor
ostin. The incident is Seldom if over
alluded to, and bits been almost fur-

Samuel Butler enlisted in tbo mili
tia of 1 8u'2. He was a private in com
pany D, Second regiment The exact
ditto ot the organization and discharge
of the company 1 do not know. Tbo dif.
feront companies of tbo regiment were
organized September II 13, 1802 ; (Soo
Hales Instory r. v., vol. 0, pages 1,
151, 1,152). It will thus be seen his

ton ami nineteen days, ino company
ot wnicn no was a member was coin
niunded by Gooigo II. Thomas, then
and now u resident of West Chester
and had a roll of about ninety enlisted
men. ino company was taken into
Maryland, in the vicinity of lingers
town (Williamspirt, 1 beiicve, was tho
namo ot the place). Wliilo lying in
camp a report was circulated that a
detachment of Les's army was within
a milo or two ot camp. Orders wore
given to march tbo men to a point a
snort uistanco away, aim as was sup
posed irom mom in lino ol batllo tor

men out and informed thorn of tho
supposed stuto of affairs. Addressing
them, ho said ho did not feel justified
in taking them whore the.r licet xcould
be in danger, and ho would put it to a
voto ol the company whether or not
they should advance, tie then an
non need that all wbo did not wish to
go should stop out. Kvory man excep
two stepped out. lliose two men
ncithor of whom was Samuel Butlor,
fell in tho rear of another company
and marched to tho point indicated. Il
is scarcely necessary to mention tho
names of thoso two mon ; Bufilce it to
say that one of thorn is a pruinincr.

THE DECA Y OF JiO YALTY.
Kvidonoo wrcumultitw! tbat the
French peoplo havo about mado up
their niiniln that they aro through wilh
tho shams of royalty. Tho ficanciers
of tho Chamber of Itoputioa havo pro.
pa rod a roBolutioti providing fur tbe
ealeofwhat aro known an tho crown jo w
els which aro of great vatuo and historic
intoroHt Thoy havo been Biicceatlully
preserved and carried through all
tho revolutions which have d.Hturbed
Franco. Thoy inctudo crowns and
procious atonoa dating from the reigne
of the Cepotian King emblems of
decayod royalty rich with the epoiln
of time. Whon EmproBs Eugenie fled
to England In 1870 sho carried away
a lotot valuablo jewels which had been
presented to bor by her husband and
the potentates of Kuropo. The crown
jowols proper woro loft in tho keoping
of tho Bank of Franco. Not long ago
thero was talk of an action againnt tho
ox Km press to rocovor the valuables
which shecarried toEngland.th theory
being that thoy were ttivto and not
personal property. The iconoclastic
First Napoloon onco eenlontiously re
mark od, whon be stole tho twelve
silver apostles from a (ierman church,
that tho proper thing to do with thoso
apostles was to melt thorn up, coin thorn
into francs and send them about doit.g
good. The Pronch people couldn't do
a bot tor tbln;f than cover their usolcas
crown jewols into tho general Treasury.
Tin Indiana Wan. Mr. Tutor Sut
ton, the National candidate for State
Treasurer is an oil oporalor, merchant,
Ac., Wealthy and of course a truo
representative of the borny handed
sons of toil, lie always voted the Re

against the National ticket. How can

XIIODE ISLAND TREASON.
Tha Baltimore (laatte, in alluding
to (.ho . knavery and .hypourisy of. the
New England Radical Statesmen, who
have assumed to regulate public affairs
for tbo South, North and Wost, fur tho
past twenty years, does it in this way :
Tho investigation tables seem lo bo
thoroughly turned and now the Provi
dence Plantations aro lo bo raked by
two Senate Committees, as with a fine
tooth comb. Tbo Constitution ot that
Stuto is throughly unreuublicun and
oligarchic in ia- piovisiiot s. Il ostra
cizes Hie poor foreigner as fully as it
it precluded bis right lo vote in express
terms. When the (rumors of tho 14th
and 15th Amendments were concocting
schemes against luo Mutes of tho South
and providing against exclusion of citl-
zons from voting on uccount of race,
coloror previous condition of servitude,
they were swut to nolo that exclusion
on account ol "nativity must not bo
prohibited, as it might infringo upon
tho Republican oligarchy in Rhode
Island. Under tho Uunslitution ol
that Stato tho right tu voto is given to
male cilizons ot luo United States ol
curtain ago, &c, wbo own real estate
worth a certain sum, us therein speel
fled, or which rents fur a certain sum
so sot forth, but all native bom citizens
of a certain age have the right to voto
it they pay a tax ot I per annum
though ihey havo no real estate and
thus the lot'cign-uorn citizen can only
vote if bo is a landholder while a native
as poor as Job's turkey can vole by
paying or having puid tor him a pull
tux of ono dollar. Tho humble citi
zens of Jiliode Island think this pro
vision in tho organic law ot tboir Slate
a violation of the roconl constitutional
amendments and havo culled upon
Congress to investigate it and Ibis is
ono of the subjects of inquiry which
tho Senato committees have in hand
Another cause of complaint against tbe
lund ol clamuuktm is the alleged viola
tion of sections 1751 nnd 1755 of tbo
Revised Statutes in relation lo tho ap
pointment of the soldiers and sailors
to civil offices in preference to citizens,
which was made imperative upon the
appointing power, where the soldier
or suilor applying for the place was
otherwise competent. Republicans of
It node island charge that these sec
tions luivc boon wantonly violated and
thoy claim that the horror expressed
by Republicans at tho removal of
Union soldiers by Democratic olucials
is a bald hypocrisy, fur the removal in
Hhodo Island of such soldiers by Re
publican officers is extensive nnd most
unwarrantable and cruel. It is also
alleged tbat Republican officials in that
stale set ut dehanco tho Presidential
ordorin regard to Civil-Service Reform
and are unrcbukod by their superior
oilicors.
'Those complaints and remonstrances
havo been made by a largo body of
L mon soldiers and sailors and Uongress
was most earnestly appealed to for re
dress and It will bo tho duty ot th
Sunale Committees to look into thoso
nutters and the Wallace Committoo
will add to lit labor un inquiry into
Iho fraudulent practices of the Rhode
Island electors in tho election of 187b.
It is, therefore, apparent that Little
lthody is to nave a good shaking up
and if the Senatorial Committees can
bavo a brief opportunity in tbe inter
vals of rest between their sessions at
Providence to witness tho movements
of tho great American editor in the
manly gamo ot polo amid the fashion of
JMowport no ono ought to begrudge it
them after tho toilsomo labors of the
lour months' extra session. All work
and no play muke oven Senators dull
boys' .

clares that tha John Sherman "boom"

it is only sporadic and that thore is no
necessity for quarantining against it
The editor in question is for Grant and

wishos to return tbe compliment, and
in this ho displays bis gratitude.
