'" The I'artj's Harmony. (Senater Wallace flceins te be generally pointed te aa tlie chairman of tlie Demo cratic national commlttce ; nnd no better selection could be made, nor ene e geed. Mr. Randall, who has been named for the place, says that he could net accept If unanimously tendered him. Doubtless heheB ue inclination for the honor, but If hejiad, he would net feel Inclined te compete with Mr. Wailace for it, net only because he recognizes the particular fitness of Mr. Wailace for the place by reason of hlsinatural aptitude for It and the training he has had In its duties, whlle chairman se long of the Pennsylvania committee, but also because he Js indebted te Mr. Wailace for" the effective and earnest support he gave his candl dacy at Chicago. Thcse leaders have learned that the best read te indi vidual success is the one which gives the best results te their party and their country, and In travelling It, harmony of effort among these proclaiming common political objects Is a prima essential. They are cordially in cooperation new in the Btreng pull that Is te be made te restore their party te Its control of the government of the country. There Is a general party feeling that calls upon all the party servants te work together, and there will be no opportunity afforded te any Democrat hopeful of future stand ing In the party te balk the party pre gress. Ner is there such disposition any. where. General Butler and Jehn Kelly have come back from the convention sere ever the small consideration with which their vleivd were received there ; bat neither they nor their frieuds will be found lagging in the Djmecratlc march. They have no audi disposition, ami would net have the opportunity if they had the will. The masses will be solidly for the ticket and with them the leaders will go. We have ourselves always en tertained a high opinion of Jehu Kelly's honesty and party fealty, and we de net doubt that his Influence with his organi zation will be used te temper its feeling te a hearty support of the ickut. Gen eral Butler U a politician of a different type, and it is only safe te conclude of him that liejjvlll never stiay from a fold without ii following. As he wilt net have that in this campaign, we ex pect te And him Bhertly in loving rec onciliation under the banner of Cleveland and Hendricks. Senater Wallace is just the man te herd the Democratic Heck. lie ha3 the tact, shrewdness and energy needed for the pest of chairman. Mr. Barnum has net been a distinguished success in the place, judged by the result of his work. Theie wasa wholly inexcusable sacrifice of the electoral vote of New Yerk, in the last campaign, which should, have been worked off, and would have been if Mr. "Wallace had b?en in the chairmanship then, as it is said General Hancock wished him te be. The Democracy lest the vote of New Yerk, when it was in its hand, because the cities of New Yerk and Brooklyn did net give the proper Democratic vote. It was there te be gathered, but was net obtained. Jehn Kelly has been popularly held respensi ble for the defection; but it certainly Wds none of his work. Daniel Dougherty, who nominated llauceck at Cincinnati, and favored his nomination again, sas that " Tammauy Hall will be in tins as Bhe has been in every presidential cam paign, faithful te the Democracy ; " and he declares that he regards the accu satlen that Mr. Kelly or Tammauy was unfaithful te General Hancock as a alander, and he thinks that General Hancock regards it in the same light, also. We have no doubt he does, and that he lias full knowledge of the source whence the disaster came ; us the chair man of the national cemmittee might have known if he did net. It is a hard task te correct a popular belief, however erroneous, and Jehu Kelly will probably centiuue te be looked upon as a black sheep whatever he does ; an impression that lias been greatly strengthened by what wecenceive te have beeu a blind lng of ills judgment by his prejudices iu his attitude its Chicago towards Cliive -land. Ilia followers, however, wetv bahlnd him in it, ami new need te be handled tenderly te be brought Inte Hue with the partj as it will be Ills aim te bring them. Under the chairmanship of Mr. Wailace they and all ether malcontents will be en ceuraged te come in. mere win i no thought of ostracism, but the intelligent and zealous effort will be te (III up the columns with all the old soldiers, and te muster iu all the recruits who offer te enlist. Mr. Wallace will net be the feel te Eiiy, lis some silly people have already said, that the Democracy will be us well off without the support of Kelly or Dana or Butler or any ether of these who had their honest judgment reversed at Chicago. Mr. Wallace will want the help of these men, and will ask for it and get it, Opinion or I'liveluiul. Mr. Shetumn S. lingers, of New Yerk, was lately a reform Republican, but like the Pennsylvania reformers of the same persuasion, his reform wai typified by Blaine, and te Blaine's Hag he clings, But In Ills reform days, two years age, he was for Cleveland for governor, and theu Bald of him : floUamanef absolute integrity, that dlreets him te oeuohulona which are almost invariably just, tin will make ene of the best governors the state has ever hed. He la honest, oeurageous nnd llnu almost te obstinacy. Ue will take ue aotleu except after thorough consideration, and he willexoeuto his ileoisien in spite of cavil or outside pressuru. Ilmve no hoslta heslta hoslta tlen in saying I will vete for Mr. Olevo. land. "Whether or no Mr. Rogers entertains the name opinion still, we unknot advised, but If he does he must feel that the country will still be safe if his friend Blalne is beaten by his old candidate Cleveland. In vlew of Mr. ltegeia' present advocacy of Blaine, we de net cite him us u man of sound judgment of the quality of a candidate for governor or president ; se that his eulegluui upon Cleveland Is only valuable as represent ing the opinion which hni generally been formed 'of Governer Cleveland, which secured his election te that olllce and his nomination for president, and which is relied upon te secure his elec tion te the presidency. It Is evident that nil the men who thought of Cleveland as Mr. Itegers did two years age, have net changed that opinion te-day ; else Cloveland would net have ascended be high since, with nothing te promote him but the geed opinion of his fellew-cltlzenr. Mr. Itegers quite felicitously dellueated his character in the words we have quoted from him ; and they arc a stteng foundation en which te build the expec tation of his coming success. Ne one, net even Mr. llegers, ever said the same of Blalne. ' m HremvAYMAN Jenes has ordcred the Republican occupants of the state stnge coach te "stnnd ami tlollver."

A tenantlcss grave In the potter's Held is Norristewu's latest sensation. Less than a week age the grave was closed ever the gashed remains of Jehn May, the German shoeraakor of Conshehookeii,who, after murdering his 15-year old daughter, stabbed hlmself te death. The body has been surreptitiously disinterred, and after undergoing lurther mutilation has been earricd fiem its lust resting place, wblthcr only the grave robbers knew. This last net was added te the tragedy early Wednesday morning or late the night before The grave, which is the only -new ene In poverty's burial ground, was placed bcslde the fence en the eastern side of the pottei's field. It Is obeut thirty feet from the only hcadstone that Is te be seen In all the place. On the further slde of the rough wicket fence is the corufleld of Jeseph O'Urlen. His 12-year-old son was Iu the cornfield near the grave yard Wed nesday morning, when he noticed three laths teru from the wloket fence, and was surprised te sce bleed stains en the fence rails. Leeking te the ground he thou discovered the footprints of two men en the plowed earth. Ue followed the feet steps ler about ten or twenty paces and traced a track of blced which had evident ly trickled steadily down. He went back te the fence nnd crept through the rails. An open grave instantly caught his eye. Reside the mound of earth which had been thrown up near the gaping grave was a long, whlte pine box, the lid of which had been forced opeu. The box was empty. Peels of bleed stained the ground around, and near by was a human heart. The little fellow ran ever te his father's house and told of what he had seen. Shortly afterward a orewd of men sur rounded the spot. It was apparent te all that nn eutrage had been committed under circumstances of disgusting bru tallty. Ttie rude celli n iu whleh the German shoemaker had been burled, had been dug from the grave. The lid had beeu forced open by an old rusty hlnge that was found near by, nreuud oue eud of which were tied several rags with which the grave gravo grave rebbers protected their bauds in prying off the lid. The body was geue, but before being taken away from the spot it bed been dieeraboweled. Peels of bleed surrounded the grave and marked a track toward the place where the fence was broken, as if the body had been dragged thoie, and thenca across the corn field. The robbers hud left sticking in the mound of earth the shovel with whieh they had opened the grave. A part of the handle was breken, but en the portion of It wblah remained were stamped the letters ' r. ec K." This affords tue only clew te the perpetrators of the dastardly act. The police officials of Norristewu, who devoted all day Wtdneiday ten thorough inves'ign inves'ign tlen of the case, are convinced that the crime was uet committed by residents of that borough. The chief of police be lieves that after leaving O'Brien's oernlldd the burden was earried out High strcet te Sandy street, and that it was then dragged a short distance down an un graded thoreughfaro called Ferd street, te a spot where a wagon "Vas In waitiug, which carried the body toUenshohookcn. "That place," the chief said tea lluerd reporter, " is eutside of our borough although our petters' field is open te the peer of Cen- shoheckeii. Everything convinces me that the men who committed this eutrage came from there. Iu the first place I am satis tied that the body was net taken for scleu tide purposes. The hacking manner in which the internal organs were roraeved de net indicate that the body could have eeen taken for dissection, and tue method of lifting the cefllu from the grave shows me that It was net dene by professional body soatcbers. I believe that there was no ether metive for the deed than revenge or spite. OK I I'll ON THIS UALI.UWH. The I'rline Yat Which Albeit aillci Was r zncutcd. Albert Miles, colored, who murdered his wife in a fit of jealous rage nt Deadman's Hir.d, ou the Mississippi river, seme thirty miles below Natchez, en the 20th of Sep timber, 1982, suffered the death penalty Wednesday. The execution was a private cne and took place within the fail yard and was witnessed only by officers of the law and mcmbeis of tbe presH. He was escorted from his cell by the efilcars and two minis ters. Ue manifested but llttle fear and made a short speech In a firm voice, re iterating his hopes for forgiveness and salvation. The ministers then prayed with him and theu tbe rope was placed about his neck and the trap sprung. His neck was broken nud he died iu a few minutes. Tbe murderous net was committed near a etiurch whither Milca and his wife had geno te attend service They had quar reled and Miles was sullen nud ill uatured, and during the sei vloe became Impatient, and ordered his wile te leave the church with him and return home. This she re fiitcd te de, be he left her, and as he came out was heard by thcse standing eutside nt the deer te utter oaths and threats against his wife. When the sorvlce was through she met him at the deer and started home with him. They had geno only a few yards when the crowd heard screams nnd saw Miles fbeiug. Several rushed te the assistance of the wemau, who had by that tlme fallen te the ground, and was almost lifeless from stabs in the breast. Others pursued the murderer and seen captured him. The wemau lived only a short tirae and her husband was brought te the Natchez jail for safe koeplng. After being oenviolcd, Miles, with four or live ether prisoners, managed te get out of confinement June 1 by tuunellng under the foundation of the j ill. His confeder ates eacaped ever the iil fence by means of the gallows adjacent thereto erected ler Miles execution in May, but when Miles attompted te ellmb up the gallows his heart failed him and he bceame dazed nnd his recapture was easily effected.

Se firm and "clean" and independent In his high ofllcehasGov. Cleveland shown hlmself te be that he is denounced as net being a Demecrat by his Democratic opponents. This denunciation springs from the faets that he has uet hesitated te prefer the publle welfare te the mere in terest of his party. Last autumn, when tbe Democratic district attorney of Quoeus county was eharged with misconduct, the governor heard the ncoimtleu and the (lefeuse, aud decided that it was his duty te remeve tbe officer. He was nsked by his party frieuds te defer thetemeval until after the olectlon, as etherwise the party would leso the district by the opposition of the atterney's frieuds. The governor understood his duty, and removed the etll cer seme days bofero the election, and the party did leso the district. This kind of courage aud dovotien te public duty In the teeth of the most virulent opposition of traders of his own party is unusual in any public man, and it chews precisely the executive quality which is demanded at a tlme when every form of speculation and fraud presses upon the public treasury under tbe specious plea of party advantage. Iho nrgument that iu an election it is net n man but a party that is supported, and that the Democratic party is less te be trusted than the Republican is futile at a tune when the Republican party has nominated a caudidate whom a great body el the most conscientious Republicans cauuet support, and the Democratic party has nominated a candidate whom a great body of the most venal Domeorats practi cally belt Distrust of the Democratic party springs from the enduct of the very Democrats who madly oppose Gov. Cleve land because they knew that they cauuet ue him. The mere party argument is vain also because no honorable man will be whipped iu te vete for a candidate whom he believes te be pers mally dis qualified for the presidency en the ground that n party ought te be sustained. Ne honest Republican weu d sustain his party for such a reason, and the honest Repub licans who propose te vete for Mr. Bialue will de se because they de net believe, na tbe protesting Republicans de beheve, that he made bis ulllcial action' subserve a per senal ndvautage Nothing is mero hope less thau an attempt te persuade tuch Republicans te sustain their party by voting for nn unworthy caudidate. Should they help te reward such a candidate by conferring upon him the highest official honor in the world they could net reason ably expect the nomination uf a werthier candidate at thn ueit election, and they oeuld net consistently oppeso the oleetion of any candidate whom their party might select. The time te defeat unfit nemina. tiens is wheu they are made, cot next time. The nominatieu of Gov.
