Their Faith la Maine.
Abettt the only thing left te comfort
the Ilenubllcans, In the treneral condom-
BaUoaef their ticket, is the conOdence
they feel that Dlatne la equal te the nc
cemttlea of thecanvas3,and can run their
craft into pert if there ia any way of
getting her there This opinion of
Blaine's transcendant political skill in
leadership is apparently very generally
held, and Democrats unlte with Repub
licans In declaring that Blalne will
make a very lively and offenslvo cam
paign out of it.' Senater McDonald who
has appeared at timcaasaposslbleDemo
cratle candidate for president, but is net
new very extensively contemplated in
that light, expresses his conildencein
Blaine's rcat nullities and thinks he Is
going te stir tlie nation with a dynamlte
display that will cause a wild Irish
rush from the Democratic party te his
standard.
We think that Senater McDonald's
attribution of brains te Blaine does net
comport with his belief that therolste
be any such effort en his part te attract
the Irish vote. We leek upon such an
essay as a very likely undertaken en the
part of Blaine, and by the same token
we de net leek upon him nsii man of
strong mind. That would be n scheme
very natural te his smart abilities nwl
rash tendencies. He may adept it if he
finds his canvass desperate otherwise ;
preferring te go down amid the cannon's
rear than be starved into capitulation.
That Is certainly his disposition : and the
general Idea that we are going te have u
lively campaign with plenty of pyro
technics In It is probably correct.
Blaine's Impudence and boldness may
be equal te changing the defensive cam
palgn with which he opens into an effen.
8ive one, though it is net new te be seen
hew he will accomplish this transforma
tion. With a theatrical character such
as he is, however, there Is no foretelling
the course he may take. lie may de
something extravagant at any time that
will net probably be wise, but yet will be
exciting, Just ns nre the unexpected an
tics of the circus clown. If Air. Blaine
Btaeuld go for the Irish vete he would
get seme of it, and would lese mero of
his own strength than he would get of
ours ; but he might very readily stir up
a great excitement aud arouse things
generally the world ever.
All the Same.
E. K. Martin, esq., told his court
heuse audience, met te ratify Blaine's
nomination the ether night, that the
" noble impulse " which Carl Schurz
gave te " civil service reform " under
Huycs, received the most cordial syra
pathy and support from Gartleld aud his
great prime minister, Blalne ; they
took up the work exactly where Hayf s
left it ; and the; strongest antagonisms
both afterward encountered were be
cause they tried faithfully te execute
the will that Schurz had written and
Dlayes had signed in which was embodied
the precious but then unpopular legacy
of civil service reform."
The fact is that one of the first acts of
fj.irfiplrl's iidmlnistmtfnn. te which hn
was instigated by Blaine, was thore-1
meval, without cause, of the customs
house officers at New Yerk, who had
been appointed by Hayes, in furtherance
of what he and Carl Schurz called
"civil Bervlce reform." This net of the
Garfield administration wasone efdu
plicity, treachery aud hypocrisy, and
wa3 In bold violation of what Schurz
regarded as civil service reform.
Mr. Martin either knows this te be
the case, or he don't ; but te that audi
once, which, like Reltuehl and Jehnsen,
had net rend the platform and did net
care what was in it, it may be assumed
that it did net matter whether Martin
was fooled or was trying te feel them.
The Stewarts mid the Stalwarts.
A pungent correspondent of the West
Chester Lecal .A'cica reminds the liepub
llcan readeis of that newspaper that the
nomination of Mr. Blaine was only made
pessible by the Independents' determined
nnd successful opposition te the dictation
of the " bosses" In 1SS2 In this atat ;
and asks the people of the whelu country
" te thank the Independent Republicans I
of Pennsylvania who In 1SS2 by their
courage and determination in resisting
wrong brought the Stalwart faction and i
their accepted bosses' te a true n-.il
Izatlen of their position and the ntcs i
ty for submission te the will of tli pee
pie," by the defeat of Beaver. Tlieie
Hcems te be a similar disposition main
fested by the Independents ull ever the
state te rub brlue into the striped backs
of the Stalwarts. In this city, for in
stance, they grabbed tin orgunmtieii
of the ratification meeting, and made
the late belters the head nnd front of it.
TheBO-called Independents of IVunsyl
vanla may bu pardoned their zeal, how
ever. They have geed reason for their
satisfaction. It is well known that all
through the senatorial contest of 18'
they had the sympathy of GarlMd aud
Blalne In their resistance te Olivet's
election ; nnd the Stewart movement of
18S2 had Blaine's moral support. He re
fused te ceme into the state aud speak
for Beaver ; he desired his defeat j for
he knew that would give him control of
the organization here and of the next
delegation te the national convention ;
and he haa net been disappointed. His
friends have reaped where they sewed,
nnd It is natural thut they should feel
llke celebrating their harvest home.
Conscientious Editors
The New Yerk Times and Pout, the
Bosten .Mi'ertfser nnd the Springfield
Jffnu&ifcan seem te be Journals having
the courage of their convictions, since
they maintain the opposition te Blalne
after Ills nomination which they nud
befoie, although they are Republican
newspapers. Jeurnnls with weaker
handling, or weaker timber, such its the
Philadelphia Teleyrapli, support Blalne
because he ia the candidate of the Re
publican party, whose success they affect
te believe te be mere Important te
the country than it ia that ita qndl-
datea should be geed and flt.'.m
This is the way nearly all, politicians
reason because they are politicians' nnd
it is the politician's nature. It is alie
the party editor's nature He has been
howling for his party se long that he
can't step It, even when he has te howl
against its candidate ; nnd ns a further
reason for his sticking te his ticket he
has the prcssure upon him of his sub
scribers, who nearly unanimously nre
for their party, right or wrong. It
requlrcs a vast amount of ceurage In n
party organ te be entirely Independent
and few there be who enter in at that
straight gate.
Net nil the waters of Malno could wash
ene small part of the stain away from the
recerd of Blalne.

A Ueuiocrntte Oplulen.
Mr. Henry Watterson writes for the
Courier-Journal (Dem.) Louisville :
"James Gillespie Hlaine, long leved iu
seoret, but held at arm's length for pru pru
dence sake, is named as the candidate for
president of the United Statci. Mr. Blaine
is a type, and a pioturesque type, of all
that is bad and all that is bold in the
party of which for years the ie.il, he is
uew both the actual and nominal chief.
lle is a man, as it is a party, without
conviction and without restraint. He is a
man, as it is a party, thoroughly unpnn
clpled, aggressive, rovengeful aud adapt
able He Is a man, as it la a party, of
varied, many colored, woof, capable of
extreme gonerosity and brutal seUishucss
all things by turns and nothing long.
In the mlddle ages he lleurished There
was a time when iu bpain he went by the
name of Oil Iilas, and he is still
remembered in Italy as Frn Diavole. In
his veins courses the lightning bleed of
the Arabs. In his personality he is a
oress between u Cersicau and a Yankee.
All that is emotional in the Republican
character and that is demineerlug in
Republlcau instincts, all that is grasping
and consciencoless in Republican arms
and methods, is fittingly and fully re pre
duced iu this brilliant adventurer, who
has areused within the besom of his
political associates, despite tne danger, a
species of blind adoration."
A Weuli Nomination.
A very general cauvass among Republi
can oengrossmon made by a Philadelphia
Recerd correspondent with the assurance
that no names would be published In con
nection with their opinions, shows that a
majority regard the tioket as the weakest
that could have been nominated at Chicago.
They soe that it will net star.d a four
mouth's examination under the light
thrown en it by the Indopeudont press.
They ienerally coucede that the Indepen
dent Republicau vete is already lest te
Hlaine, and will say that if the Democrats
de net uominate a man for whom the
Indopeudents can conscientiously vete
the Independents will either ueruluatu nu

mitteooutho directory of worship. Tne
topert was adopted anil is as fellows :
" The cemmittee te which was referred
the ' D, rectory of Weiship ' with in
structions te give au expression of opinion
restricting its claims, present the
following succinct repert :
"1. Frem an examination of the work it
is evident that the ' Directory' Is con
structed ou the basis of the book ontltled
an - Order of Worship for the Reformed
Church.' Whilst the changes are mauy
and important, -et both the distinctive
llfe and the devotional language or the
eldor production characterize this uew
book of worship,
"2. The changes consist partly in omis emis
sions of words and phrases iu the offices
for baptism, the holy commuuieu and
continuation, which te many wcre ob.
jcctiouable, partly iu the substitution of
one formula of au aet of worship, te an
other, for example, the declaration of
pardon ; partly iu the moditlcatieu of the
lauguaKO changes, howevor, whieh po pe
kcsh diil'erent degrees of oxcellcncc.
":!. The doctrinal principles pertainiug te
siu and redemption, the porseu of Christ,
the church and saints, and the last thiuus ;
also, the liturgical spirit animating 'he
directory, are all iu hearty sympathy with
the Heidelberg catechism uud holy Scrip
ture On the score of doctrinal truth it is
net epeu te juet criticism.
"1 The book has lu it nearly all the best
elements of common worship as dovelopcd
in the history of the church ; namely, the
confessioii of absolution, the creed, Lord's
prayer and decalugue, the Gleria in Kx
celiit. Gleria Iitri, Tmagien, Te Veum,
aud the litany. Whilst the rubrics may
be said te be somewhat at fault, yet free
dom is nocerdod te mluisters and poeplo te
use theso llturgic olemonts according te
tbe order which they may prefer.
''5 Whilst seme things both ns te subject
matter aud form tire wanting whieh many
would like te have iu this uew book, nnd
whilst seme thiugs nre in it which de net
commend thomselvos te the Judgment and
taste of all, yet takeu as a whele the Di
rectory of Worship is a work which is far
in ndvauce of any liturgy en which tLe
whele church, east nud west, has ever
united, aud may be pronounced, iu this
view, a great positive galu.
"0. Being the oemmon basis en which nil
theological aud liturgical tondenoics
among us have In geed faith agreed te
stand, the book having grown forth from
our (urnest controversies, constitutes nu
opeoh of progress In our history of theology
nud worship ; aud if we are faithful te tlie
obligations Imposed by this opeoh it will
prove an unifying and edilyiug ferce
among all the congregations of the Re
formed church, east nnd west, north nnd
eentli.
"Your cemmittee limits this report te
seme of the pesitlvn aspjets of the dlrec
tery. We deem it noither wIbe nor orderly
te make comparisons or te deal In nogative
oritleisms.
"Fer the reasons given, ns well as for
ethers whieh we de net think It important
te Include, we recommend that Lauo.ister

"Jletelved, That the Dlreotery of Wor
