TUE —Nashville American says that President GARFIELD'S assassination is the first national event which has called forth from the women of th , - South a wide auchprofoun4 sympathy. ',this,, it says, is a sign of restoration worth all the rest, and also "a fact highly.creditable to the man who could inspire Southern feminine instincts, long dead to the beat of any national chord, or for the North any sym pathetic chord, with such a feeling." SENATOR CONGER appeals in .God's name for help for the Michigan sufferers. Among the pathetic incidents of the fire it is related that a local relief committee met a farmer traveling eastward with an did „horse and wagon containing four boxes. The boxes contained the charred remains of his wife and six children. He had lost everything. The situation is most distressing, :and the unhappy people f i f the devastAed region should receive prompt and liberal aid. , mitTioN of the Satanic press, says the Lebanon Courier; cannot see General GItANT takihg any part in public affairs without ruarling at . him likal a cross grained cur..

T ey seem to have forgotten that in th t document the one great central th ught in the minds of the people Was grasped. crystalized and given forth in lan guage more forciLle and . eloquent than they could have given it them selYes. They seem to -forget also that it ejtained. a specific and un qualified a l vowal that,the line of poli cy, faintly outlined by :the brief ad. ministration' of the lamented GAltt . be rigidly and 'inflexibly adhered to. They likewise seem to oblivious to the fact that never in the past have peripatetic correspond ents of vaccilating newspapers, corn- billed with street-corner Statesmen, been able l to select a Cabinet for a President, that proved satisfactory to the people, or that was accepted by the Executive. Learning nothing by experience; they do not realize that if General GARFIELD bad lived the success of his administration must hae depended wholly upon the support given it by the people, and more especially by that portion 61 the people that made by their suffrages, 04 Chief Executive of the Nation. :General Annuli can no more .car' i ry to a successful consum- mation the policy outlined by the lamente.l dead, without the same support from his party and the peo ple, than i could the late' President GARSIEp himself., . . No PfCsident has ever entered up- on the diScharge-of the responsible duties of his. high office under such solemn circumstances as did CUES TER Al Anl'unt. In our judgment no President was ever more entitled to be sustained by public . Sympathy and n'fair unbiased judgment. Honor and interest alike dictate such course. Gel]. ARTHUR is a man o strong individuality; and 'he wil make his own distinct impress upo public affairs. He will himself be President, but in stamping his own force upon the administyition, he will, no doubt, be guided by the same high ideals which rallied the country so heartily around General GARFIELD. Let the people therefore, accord him the same latitude and priTileges they fmtly oivl*rtleed W predecessor. From his future path wily in the public service should be 'moved the slightest suspicion. He should receive the united and hearty support of the whole party. Let the loyal confidence of a whole Nation strengthen his hands: Let all doubts be bushed all doubters sent to the rear. Who. shall constitute the Pres ident's'Cabinet, an& thereby his ad- Visers, is of less moment to the pia rde at large, than the ~policy 'to be adopted and carried forward—not withstanding croakers insist the con trary. The people expect mnah from President ARTHUR, and we have no hesitancy in predicting that they will not be disappointed. Be has already demonstrated his ability as an execu tive officer irkpositions of resposibili ty ; he is in thoinugh accord with our institutions, and he desires to do right. The public' -must do its part to assist him in . his work , by giving him its full confidence -if it desires the prosperity of the whole country, and the carrying forward of the great reforins so auspiciously begun. ' THE BARREL AT WILLIAMSPORT Those who carefully read thework of the late Demlicratic State Conven tion at Williamsport, will not be long in discovering - that once more the power of the barrel" in politics has had a most perfect illustration. And, the public will not be lOng in arriv ing at t4e conclusion that the man of wealth iis j gerierally more success ful as a candidate before a Democrat ic Convention, than lire his less favor ed competitors in this respect. As the PlOadelphia North American puts it : i The party keeps true to its modern traditions. "It frames platforms denouncing in unmeasured terms all sorts of monopoly, and then puts a blOated monopolist upon them and invests him with the party stand ards. We are glad to believe that Mr. ORANGE NOBLE is a good citizen and - neighbor. We make no war upon the man. The fact that he, has by the modes familiar to monopoly the world over accumulated a few millions, more or less, does not ex- cite either our envy or our apprehen sions. 'We [lke to see Men prosper, and we like prosperous men. But after I.llf a century of outcry against bloated wealth and monopoly, and in behalf of "honest ,poverty," . should like to see the Democratic party nominate , a man for an import ant office.: somewhere"who . in some sense 'represents that middle estate which can be -tailed neither poverty a friendly re .: 1u tlt© riva DF,I T • nor riches. But that will not happen. There is a call formen who are willing and able to furnish the sinews of war, and whenever- a Democratic conven-. tioh assembles, that call is obstreper: oils and drowns every other. We all know what it did in 1876 in a nation al way, though that was not the first time the potency of a plethoric barrel r had 'been - demonstrated in Democratic political management. It has had pretty consiant.rdemon stration ever 'since. It was domOn strated when BOOKWALTER was able to push aside rill competitors the other day- in Ohio, and it Was dem onstrated again on Wedßesday at Williamsport. There were Other and .important considerations that natur ally boTe upon the selection of a can didate, but the potency of the barrel asserted itself and swept them' all away. The other. candidates may console themselveswith the reflection that wealth is rated an accident of life, and that 'as a test it leave's every other 'consideration far behind in the I',race_ fOr political preferment; It is to be hoped that Mr.. NOBLE can understand the platforin upon which he 'stands, though if he. under. takes to interpret it in -the light of what' his•party has done for Pennsyl .vania- in 'past times, it is probable that he will give up in despair. We should like to see him or anybody else interpret the substance of the sixth. resolution in the light of the administration of State affairs, by the Democrats prior to 1861, for we have to go: back so far as that to find a purely Demoeratic administration. .The party has b'een telling the peo ple what it would do -if they would g trust it with power once more for twenty years. But history informs the people of ' . what -it did do when it had the. plenary power. The evidence of Democratic economy was allebt of about forty millions, with arrears of interest. What bad it to show for the debt ? What'assets did it delis'-er up to its successor with which. to 'provide for the discharge of that-in debtedness? What useless offices did it ever lop off when the incum bents were Democrats? How did it provide for the maintenance of State credit so as to reduce the interest charge on the debt ? How and wheri did .it restrain monopolies? And when - did it ever administer the at fairs of the Commonwealth without 'reference to the interests of the old canal ring? Perhaps .Mr. XOBLE will explain some of these things. • • .

It . class that President ular fitness 'it,socksste ,so tender •vated is its THE cry for aid which still comes from the desolated districts of 3lichigan should meet with;a prompt and generous re sponse.

But without saying that this would be unjust to the Times, it may be said that if a capacity for inventing opprobrious epithets were an indication of superior taste, the vilest master of the purest Billingsgate might be worthier of respect than the Times.— Rochester Democrat.

He is simply a plainl ii) d ; successful business 1 man -who has fou i ght his ow* way in the world, and achieved what he aimed at by industry, pekse4erance and honorable dealing with all !Men. That is the kind of a . man in whom the people are never 'deceive when t ey place , them in posi tions of resposib lity and honor. • ' THE Philadelphia North American is Opposed to the Republicans of Virginia supporting the MAtiolvE ticket. It coun sels them to support the DeMocratic tick et, and says •by - so doing the " old party of 13curbonism will be transformed by the entrance of sa large a Republican ele ment, and proper management of this golden opportunity , will make Virginia ,a Republicau State iu the Presidential fight of 1884.." After giving such advice the North American should have added the following valuable recipe : To convert forty gallons of Bourbi t in whisky nto French brandy, worth $l6 per gallon. drop a half - dozen grapes , into the Iliquid throughstin bung-bolo of the cask con tainingt. The transformation will take place= t once, and the palatableness of the liquid will be added to an' hundred fold. ,CHA r aLEs DUDLEY WAILNErt, in.bis ad drrssreeently delivered before the Social . Science Association; . said .the only, really admirable thing that he finds in modern journalism is the bhOrt and sharp editorials and paragraphs that are beconi ing such a feature of the Americanpress. He says : " I think we may claim a stipe: riority over English dailies in our habit of brief, pointed editorial paragraphing. It is life of the editorial page. A cul tivation of these, the printing of long editorials only when the elucidation of a subject demands length; and the use of the space thus saved for more 'interesting reading, is probably the line'of our edito rial evolution." All of which goeS to show that cIIAIILES has learned much by his no doubt weekly perusal of the Itr.rott= TED: GENERAL.

Such a man always wins his own way before the-peo ple, and this is now what General BAILY is doing with fine effect. FIVE weeks from last Tuesday will be the , election. It is .a short time left for considerable work which must be done to give the Republican party a victory which it now needs in a double sense ,to 'insure its : hotior.and reputation. Since the death of Piesideiit GARFIELD, the enernics of the Republican party 'will endeavor to convert that sorrow into . 'a motive for striking, at its existence; but the man whQ prufeNses . to revere the memory of that illustrious statesmen can do it no greater indignity than to vote. against' a pahyWhieli he, while living, loved as he did his life. SAYS the .NorilL American : ".The friends of the protective tariff have good reason to be especially satisfied with the record of President Arrrnurt on that sub ject,.vhich will he found, by those who care to, examine it, to be. strongly identi fied with the rigorous interpretation of all the ad valorem duties of the - tariff in a spirit.favorable to American manufactures'' and trade generally. He has had a prae ticalexperieneel in that subject in a high official position - , and is there(Ore better posted than Presidentsusually are." THOSE who are now so ready and ar: dentinkliscussing the questiodas to what President Arthur will do, will; it is sup posed, concede him the conimon right ex ercised by all his predecessors in the same office, of forming his own policy and se lecting his own, advisers, This ought to be conceded.at least.
