Hnnce Ter (loeso nnd Unndcr. The Philadelphia Press, which pro claimed, en tlie advent of tlie scandal about Cleveland, that It was entirely tee decent te print nny such utery or te con duct a campaign en any such foundation, has been terribly restless uverBlnce under Its self-Imposed restraint, and brinks nway from It te day with n half column of stuff about the matter, with editerliil cemmeut thrown In.' It still essays te hang en te the shadow of Its decency b declaring that It never has published the original story and never will. I's virtue will always1 be strong enough te rest content with the story's sub stance nnd any ornamental trimmings that may subsequently have attached te It. The Press Is open new for the dish in nil lis modified, Improved nnd embellished forms. The Press Is n virtu ous nnd discreet journal. It regards the private life of the Democratic candidate as very Interesting reading. The private life of Blaine, Is, however, of no interest it thinks, and It preserves about it a most profound nud prudent silence. The Philadelphia 2Yme.i assumes a virtuous stand, differing from the Press In that It consistently maintains that the prlvate llfe of neither candidate is public property ; or rather, ad it puts it the stories about both Cleveland and Blaine are campaign lies, unworthy of mention ;and ltdeneuncea tlie Democrat" f 3r their retaliation en the Republicans with stories of Blalne's youth in return for the stories of Cleveland's. It reems te us that the Times takes a somewhat tee elevated position. If it will kindly consent te rempmber that men are human, and will consider that never yet did the average man turn his ether cheek te the smlter, as he should de te obey the law laid down in the Bible and by the preacher, It will find that while it must be admitted that defamation should net be met by defamation, it always will be while the world lasts, when the average man is tlie ncter that the editor, staudlne above tin average plane and waving back thesi who would repel charge with counter c large, does net take a tenable pesitu n if he alms te be n leader of men. He cannot get theru up te his altitude in n political campaign. Nothing is surer thau that ir Cleveland's personal life and habits are te be uncovered, anil a flue teeth comb ruu through his hair te develop its possible tenants, Mr. Blaine's life nnd habits will undergo a like scru- ,U. -.1 ...I... 1 l.l.. ,t I, In .,.,.,. MUJ. UlU WUJ, lUUIVlll lib lb III 41 lull. I imm sense way, should they net V Wh 1 should the exalted sentiment if the Timts control the opponents of Blaine te silence, if silence were possible ? Who brieves, in practical life, in being kicked without kicking back or in being denounced without denouncing? The preachers may ; but net all of them even, by a geed many. It was a preacher who started this f caudal about Cleve land en its rounds, one Ball of Buffalo. Mr. Ball may be a very estimable man ; but the chances are that he is net These extraordinarily censorious peeplt , who are constantly lifting up their hands in holy horror, and poking their notes into noisome places, are net general! very estimable folk. They may ln' righteously according te their own l.lm, bit they manage te make themselves eilraerdiunril disagreeable te their ft I lows. We imagine that the Itev. Mr. Ball of Buffalo, Is net a popular man, and tha he could net be elected te the council', of his town. Mr. Cleveland", however, who is in his Judgment a bad man, was elected mayor of Buffalo and governor of New Yerk, receiving great majorities of the vote of Buffalo, and far mor mer than his party vote. This ought te be sulllcient assurance te the people that the people or Mr. Hall's town de net wee with Mr. Ball that Mr. Cleveland is an immoral man. who is unworthy te held ellice. Gov Cleveland's strength and lus place In this canvass spring from the great confidence reposed in him by the city of Buffalo nnd the state of New Yerk. Their judgment ought te be eon elusive as te his character. But it Is al leged that In making it up they disre garded his relations with the ether fex. as net properly entering Inte the ques tlonef his fitness for ellice; and if it be Slid that this ought te he considered m electing a president, then we say that the same measure should be applied te Mr Blaine ; and that It will be, whether it should or should net be, abstractly con sidered; nnd regardless of the effect upon delicate noses. We de net hanker for the odor, but will need no smelling bottle te bear a full hand in the fray. The Kenards or Literary Laber. It is a curious fact that men in literar pursuits) rarely succeed in piling up a fortune. Ner Is this nlwajsdue te tht peer compensation afforded their labor Given salaries the most princely, a rain day would find them without an uni brella. The causa of the Imiecunteus. condition of the " literary feller " is net hard te discover. Se long does he fens' his eyes en the light that was never yet seen en laud or sen," that the practi cal problem of amassing dollars never occurs te him ; or If the thought dees Buggest Itself, he drives It away as an unpleasant Interruption te Ills duj dreamlng. Oliver Goldsmith, the lightest sentence from whose pen glisteued with gems of thought, never had a penny te rub azalust another. Burns gloried in his Impecunleslty. Massinger and Steele died peer nnd neglected. Indeed, many of the brightest minds In all ages have bjeu compelled te leek for subsistence te these whose shrewdness In money mak. lug supplied their entire lack of intel lectual development. "Why It Is that devotion te llteraiv pursuits has the inevitable tendency te weaken the money-holding power in mau, let psychologists Inquire. Tew of the bright writers whose iiersenalities urohldentbo staff of the great metre pelitnn newspapers are further along In the struggle for competence than they were ten years age. With them the UViemlan pplrlt Is larcely ifeu'liu, 1 and they llve for the present nlenc, consider ing that " Biittlclent for the day is the evil thereof." Here Is Jehn Habberton, for Instance, who made n munificent sum of money a3 the author of "Helen's Babies." llonew has nothing but his salary en tlie New Yerk Jhr,ihl; his shekels have silently stolen nway in accomedations for friends and doubtless In extravagances and ill-advised sptcu In Ien. "Oath "and Je. Heward nnd newspaper cei respondents of like variety, are drifting around the country with little mere than, as the latter naively said, " a pair of suspenders te each suit of clothes." These men nre unquestionably bright, can edit the financial column of n great paper, lead you an excellent homily en the necessity of frugal habits ; but there is llttle likelihood el their estates realizing millions at their decease. Whether or net te be a litterateur, Is te Iks without tlie money-keeping faculty, it is an un deniable l" ft that few literary men be come wealthy ns the result of their brain labors. Cvm. Scum opened the campaign in Brooklyn last night at a mns;mi'ptmg et the Independent Republicans, in the opera house, nnd delivered a strong speech, showing the ground itjeu wlnh the Independent Republicans would sup port Cleveland nnd oppose Blaine. TI.e issue as he made it was distinctly bi tween official honesty and d!shiu.c3t. He declared that Blaine's public life was a record of official power offering itself for prostitution te make money ; and that Blaine's wealth acquired by suchprac tices steed as an insurmountable barrier te his receiving the votes of these eiti zens who demanded integrity in their public servants. He quote 1 the letters te Fisher, in the Mulliga i vr e as read by Blaine nnd admitted by him, and asked hew similar 'e:ters signed " Geerge Washington " and "Abraham Lincoln " would sound 'e the people's ears. Blaine stele these 1-tters from Mulligan and afterwards e id Mieni in tie Heui' but refused te let anj one see them. lie may have real tiem and copied them aright, or lie may 'uivetdited and ultered them ; but as liey stand and as he fathered them, the would never have been signed by Wash ington or 1. 1 1 coin or iu public servant above the grade et Rjbinn C'j.indler Kellogg, Brady and all thnt well marked class of public robbers.

IMPALING Ml BLAINE. UAIU. SOIUHtZ ON THE MAINE I.EAUEIl ThA Udirntitleu Thnt Would rollet te r.leetlen et Ihs illnan ntitetmn IVny Itrputiliuni Should ltrject lilm, The ludopeudont Republicans of Broek lyu held a mass meeting In the Gran 1 opera heuse Tuesday uight. The place w is crowded. Tbe platform was oj'.upled by a number of prominent Independents. The principal speech of the uveulng was made by Carl Scaurs. After leading oevomt of the Mulligan Utters nnd reviewing Mr. Blalne's roeord ami the defense made for him in the mat ter of these transactienc, Mr. Schurz aid : If von want te knew what the result of Mr. Blalne's cleotlen would be, step nnd observo what the result of his mere nomi nation alreaily has been. What de you cee '.' Men high in standing who but yes lrnl.iv worn nhneked at such things as Mr. Blaiue has done, who theugtit that the prople would and ought te brand thorn with thelr emphatic 'disapproval, new meekly apolegiriug for the same things and dismissing them as lit lit lit tlocceeutricitios of genius. Nay, s.mieef them grew fairlv facetious at the "Phati see.'," or "saints," or "dude," or "gen tle hcimits," who deneunce corruption te day as they themselves denounced it yesterday. Indeed. "Pharisees" and "saints." What, then, are the strange and extravagant things which these Phariees aud saints demand and which after Mr. Blaine's nomination have sud denly beceme se ridiculous ? De they ask that a candidate for the presidency should be tbe i!eal man and the embodiment of all the human virtues ? That he should part his hair in the middle aud wear lavender gloves .' Ne, net that. But these strange c.eatures, these "Pharisees" nnd "dudes" insist that a man, te be elected president of the United States, should be a man of integrity; that be should have a just sense of official hjuer; that he should uet be one with a record of prostituted etficial power, such as, the Mulligan letters and the investiga tien show, upju lus back. That is all. Why, bow ridiculous this Is, te be sure. Have veu ever heard anything se outlandish ? Well, fellow citizens, when you se grave men, men of public etacdmg, sud denly disposed te laugh at ether men, who te-day refuse te honor bad radioed which yesterday they all in common con demned, it is net altogether amusiug. It is a rather serious symptom of the moral effect Mr. Blaine's mere nomination ha already produced. But it is euly e: e of many. Tbe Republican party ence preudl and justly called ttwif the party of moral ideas. Where are 'hose moral ideas new ? What is the answer of tbe thorough paced partisan when y.iu remind him of "the party of moral ideas" of the past and point at the record et his candidate :' "Hang moral ideas, we are for the party." And he will tell you further that, what ever may beceme of your moral ideas, you are in honor bound te be for the party tee. The Republican party was a party of free men and velunteers r rem the nigs ani from the Democrats they came, proud of having cut their party tics, and they gathered around the anti slavery banner, for this they thought the cause of rijht. And new the spokesman of the same party tells you that he who opposes tbe candi dates of his party because he conscien tiously believes it wrong te support them commits a dishonorable act. Tne Duty of tbe Citizen. As a member of a party I de net ceaie te be a citizen. Upen all circumstances the duties which I ewe as a citizen te my country are superior te tbe duties which I can possibly ewe te any party. When I go as a delegate te a party convention I consult with ethers as te what may be bst for party action. When as a voter I go te the polls, I consult my own consciecc censciecc consciecc abeut what is best for the country's we: fare. And if I conscientiously find that what tbe party demands is net for the eecx) of the country, then it is ne: only my right out my amy as a ctisen te vete aaic&t it. Who will gainsay this ? But new wc are told cot euly that a dclegate te a conven tion has no right te oppose his party nominees, but that an ordinary member of the party is by his honor forbidden te de se. A new cede of political honor is invented which forbids us te be honest. There was en outcry once in this country against the English principle : "Occeabub ject, always a subjjet " ItuecaiB the Blaine party wants te improve upon this by the proclamation : " Oace a party raamber, always a party aiavt ' And what is worse, we see men who knew that all we say is true, and who but yesterday eaid it them selves, stula their consciences and wear the b.ulg'j of that slavery. But if the raere nomination of Mr. Blame has accomplished this,' what would ba the eiltcte of lus election te the i-retidcucy '.' Iraairine that event te have taken plie) Ii.iaine then ene of the elder men amjng ui'AitheId fanhleced uotieas of better times te meet a company of yeuntr, able, active and aspiring politicians and te dis course te them about their duties as pub pub leo men. He would, of course, mention foremost among these duties unseltlsb li'votieu te the publie Interest, scrupulous honesty and the maintenance of the highest standard or official houer. Yeu must net be surprised if an answer Hke ihia comes back : " Old friend, you are behind tbe times. That was geed talk jears age, but only Pharisees and dudes speak eonew and they, jeu should knew, ar very ridiculous persons. As for us, we are going into politics te make moaey. We tee various channels of usnfulneiw tbtre and we are net going te be dead heads In anything that efTera itaelf." "Bur," you object, "the people will never lulernte ucb a thing." What will the answer be ? "Yeu are behind the tuneH attain, oil friend Years ace the people might net have tolerated it, but new they de. They rather like it. De jeu kneff the story of James O. Blaine ? His eiM was clear enough Kvorybedy knew that lie had been ' en the make ' whoa he w.is speaker of tbe Heuse. There were Ui Mulligan letters and the testimony and the faet that he had made a large for tune without any business. There could be ue doubt about it. Aud what happened? Tlie Republicau party nominated him for the prcsidoiiey. And Mr. Kvarts made a long speech for him, with soverai Jokes in it. And theso who protested agalust it were laughed at as dudes and Pharlsecs, And he was oleoted president and called the great ropreeentatlve American. Yeu tee the American people like this sort of thing. This is the way te wealth and te publie honor at the same time, as in James G. Blaine's case. That is what we want, tee. It is the read te the presb deney. And some of us may get there in tlie same way. Let us be 'en tbe make ' thou." What would you answer ? Would net in case or Mr. Blaine's election all this be true, overy word of it ? But mere would be true ; and here 1 ask for the nttoutlen of business men. De j en think that tbe oentaglon of that example would remaln oeullned te the political field? De you think that the sanotieu and encouragement, aye, the glorification, whleh being en the make " would rcoeive by the popular vete for Mr. Blaine, would net be noticed by your eashlers and your boek-koopoia and your salesmen and your clerks ? Will net mauy of them ask thomselres why they should he mero conscientious In the dlsobarge of their hiulness duties nnd the use of thelr business oppeitunltles than the man whom the American peeple honored with the presidency was in the use of h soeportunl tles as spoaker et the Henso of ltoprotoa lteprotoa ltopretoa tatlves?

By his own word, written aud spoken words authentic beyen l cavil, words Imprinted en the t fficul records of the government Mr. B'.a.ne has con vinced me, and, I trus has oon eon oen vtncod you. that his dcfc.v as a candidate Ter the presidency is at th tune the se. prcme duty of American eii.eetiship. Te vmdlcate the honor of the An.cric.iu r.ame it should be done by a phenomenal ma jority, that the world ma knew he. v streugly the American he.ut beats for righteousness nnd honest government. Aud te repair the honor of the Republican party it should be done by lb publi can votes. Yes, te r, pair the lien ir of the Republican party it should be doue by lle publican votes te mike it known that while a strange d.'bauchnient ofe Ubcci.ce permitted such a uonunatieu te be made the true Republic in heart nvelwd at it, te uude by its own act the d.. -.graceful mischief. Hie Uf mm-.- ille CnuillilKte. The Democratic party has uever pre edited a candidate whom auy friend of geed government, D.'tu icratic or Repub lican, could see step into tbe j residential chair with greater leeliu; of security than Grever Cleveland. The time, therelere, is uncommonly prep.ti.ms fe.- a cb u.;e of power, en account of the safety with which it can be etl'ected. And here I may re mark, by the way, that the scandalous stories recently circulated about Mr. Cleveland's private character haw, te my knowledge, been careful v inquired into by several parties separately by men of high standing in Buffalo, by a cleiical ccuUc man en the editorial s'aiT of the Independ ent aud by ethers and that the reports of all of them, as they have ceme te roe, acree in pronouncing these stories mon strous calumnies en tUe mm, winch will recoil en tbe inventors. The pub'ic will undoubtedly hear mero from the investt gaters through tbe press. With this con viction I stand here speaking of Governer Cleveland. I beg Republicans te retnom retnem ber that when Mr. C'levelan.l was elected governor of New erk two years at;e, it was tbreuch Republican support that lie received his onormeus majority. And I am sure every Republican in New Yerk whose object was uet mere party ad vantage, but an honest, able aud fearless idministratleu of public aflairs for tbe public geed, has ever sinci ceneratu'atetl himself upon tbe support he nave that Democratic candid ite. Te be su'e, while receiving the hearty approbation and ap plause of tint friei ds 'f reA government, Governer t'levelard also made enemies The bitterest a -ljug them were thegre8dy politicians for whom he was i r-.K enough a partisan because he was se g.d a gevermr ; and l.e vase uued a governor just because he was net a geed cneu.:b part'san for them.
