Ell
Tag marked respect, the distinguished
consideration awarded Gen. JOHN W.
GEARY, the heroic soldier, the statesman
of undoubted ability, paid by all the he
roes of the battle of Gettysburg, at the
recent reunion, was enough to assure us
that the man has not been over.estl.
mated in this Commonwealth by the peo
ple. - 'When we saw battle- scarred heroes,
men 'who played grand parts bit that
greatest of all battles of_ the rebelon,
bowing their heads before his record, we
felt that he was worthy confidence, and
that the Republican party had honored
itself in making such selection to lead us
to victory in the struggle of the State be
tween money and patriotism. GEARY'S
name will live forever in the history of
the country. Should we now prove un
grateful to his claims upon us a citizen, a
soldier, a statesman, a philanthropist and
a successful administrative officer ?
Ole TUESDAY next, the citizens of this
city will be called upon to decide the very
important question of "a public park or
no public park." and it is to be hoped
that there will be a full vote out on the
occasion. The erroneous impression pre
vails that the commission to have charge
of the project, provided the people may
vote it their pleasure to have a park at
public expense, has been already appoint
ed and the entire matter fixed up in ad
vance of popular expression: The old
park commission expired with the act of
Assembly providing for a reference of the
matter to the.people, and a new one will
have to be appointed after the election, if
the project carries, and khe entire work
gone over from the start. We
make this statement, believing that
several public spirited gentlemen have
been grossly wronged in personal charges
made in the discussion of the Park
question.
WE COMMEND the annexed resolution,
adopted by the Democratic State Conven
tion of Massachusetts, to their friends in
this Commonwealth, who have thus tar
declined to "acquiesce in settled results."
When our own Democracy shall consent
to "postpone fruitless opposition to ac
complished facto" indefinitely, they will
have better reason than now to hope for
some "effective action upon the pressing
problems of today. " Hear the wiser
partizans of Massachusetts:,
Resolved, That the Democratic party of
Massachusetts have no "new theories to
advance upon national subjects. Recent
events, as well as the experience of our
earlier history, serve to convince us, that
the farther the natitat wanders from the
old and cherished principles of Democ
racy the more argent grows the need of
a return to them. but we nevertheless
deem It a political duty to acquiesce in
settled results, and postpone fruitless
opposition to the accomplished facts of
yesterday, in order to secure effective
action upon the pressing problems of
to-day.
SINCE the opposition press have been
sorely exercised over the alleged inter
ference, by the President, with the course
of the civil authority in New York in the
ease of the Texan assassin lately in the
ustody of the Marshal of that district, it ,
D.:
ill be a grateful reliete them to know
tno such ' interference was actually
had. The prisoner was in the Federal
custody and was directed to be held there,
while the Marshal himself was ordered
to make use of all legal means to prevent
his own arrest. Here is the text of the
President's much misrepresented letter :
• NEw Yong, August 12, 1889.
1 General P. C. Barlow, United States Mar.

JONATHAN ON THE THAMES.
We won't crow as much as we could
have done if the Harvard crew had won ;
the race, but we almost. feel. Inclined to
imitate our • Democratic brethren who
jubilantly put up a rooster if a defeat has
not turned out to be as bad as they had
expected. Yesterday, we enumerated
the various concessions' which the Amer
icans were obliged to make in order to
attain their object of having a race at all.
Remembering thede, and recalling ,the
fact that Englishmen were offering large
odds in favor of the Oxford crew, we think
we need feel little chagrin at a result
which was se nearly a victory. Indeed,
when we reflect on the circumstances of
the case, and since, according to a cable
gram, the Harvards, in a race of nearly
five miles, with a crew acknowledged to
be the best ever seen in England, were
beaten by only six seconds, we think we
May, while lamenting the absence of vic
evir
to' y, feel very proud, indeed, of what has
b en done.
e have no doubts as to the fairness of
the race, and see no reason to believe
that the rumors, said to have been rife on
Wall street yesterday, were anything but
the usual tricks of the, speculators on that
thoroughfare, who 'Would have been act
ing contrary' to all precedent if they had
allowed so brilliant an opportunity for
falsifying dispatches, and for specula
tions on the popular prejudices, to pass
by without taking advantage of it. As to
the hint of poison having been adminis
tered to one of the American crew, we do
not believe it, nor shall we until we have
more substantial grounds to rest such a
belief upon.
;We suppose that the Americans will
now have to pass through one of the
severest social ordeals which falls to the
lot of man, and that is a series of dinners
and other entertainments, an outburst of
hospitality in fact from the friends of
their conquerors. That they will bear
up well under this infliction, we do not
hesitate to predict. It it all could be
made to end in infusing into the English
mind the idea that it would now be em
inently proper for them to offer to send a
crew over to race a Harvard crew in
American waters without a coxswain,
next year, we think the Yankee boys
"would feel almost repaid for their glorious
defeat. -
A SHARP REPROOF FOR PARTISAN
General ROSECRAISS had too sincere a
regard for his sacred obligations to his
creditors and his family, to accept any
nomination for office, as the standard.:
bearer of the party of repudiation. His
etter of declination has just been given
to the public. The rumor in Ohio rune
that this document had been for some
days in the hands of the Democratic
Committee, to which it was officially ad
dressed, but that these gentlemen were
so awkwardly gravelled by its most un
welcome purport as to induce their delay
of publication until they found a longer
concealment to be impracticable. It may
be a slander to accuse them of any inten-
Lion to suppress the letter altogether, but
—looking at the mysterious delay of which
we have spoken, and at the letter itself as
it now stands in type, arraigning and
condemning the Democracy for its dis
regard of all the teachings of political
experience and for its inexcusable depar
ture from the doctrines maintained by its
earlier leaders—we can no longer wonder
at the quandary of these rebuked parti
sans, with sneh an elephant on their
hands.
We reprint in another column, the
most brilliant gems from this letter; the
fall text would occupy more than two
columns of the Gazette% and, generous as
we always are, we feel that this would be
devoting:too much space for the admoni
tory instruction of a party which will
-
never appreciate our good advice, or
thank us for any efforts to recall the Dem
ocracy from the crooked ways which are
leading them down to political ruin.
The extracts which we have made, faith
fully reveal the spirit of the entire letter.
The Ohio Democracy may not welcome
this exposition of wise political doctrines,
but they ought, above all things, to regret
their failure to secure its author for their
candidate. Had the platform which, in
the same hem; with the nomination now
declined, was adopted by their Conven
tion, been framed in any faithful corres
pondence with opinions which were then
as well known to leading politicians of
both parties In Ohio as they are now to
the popular masses by this publication;
had the Democratic engineers paid to
General ROSECRANEI the moderate com
pliment of supposing him to be an honest
man, and not, , as one of themselves, a,
mere trickster who would cheerfully sub
mit to any dogmas, no matter how, offen
!live to hisj ndgment, or incompatible with
the record of a long and nonorablecareer;
had they .not attempted,-as 4ouble.
game, hewing their platform after - the

dices and of acquiescing in accomplished
facts, but at the same time expecting to
secure its acceptance through the person
al popularity of the nominee, and
through a general impression that his of
ficial conduct would in some way counter
act and restrain the mischievous avowals
of the Convention; had, in short, the
Democracy been honest for once, them
selves, and regarded their candidate as
equally so, they would have squared
their own uttekances by his well-known
opinions, and it is likely that the nomina
tion would not only have been accepted,
but it might have led to victory in Oc
tober.
Undoubtedly, the platform and the
nomination were alike made known to
Gen. Rosgatmis at the same time. It is
not to be supposed that, when he tele
graphed back his declination, he was in
any respect ignorant of the exact charac
ter - of the Democratic resolutions. He
thus perceived the attempted fraud and
spurned it, with brief, curt promptitude
in his telegram, but with dignity and
crushing force in the extended letter.
The party may now realize their mistake
—what they have lost, and how they have
lost it. The personal popularity of a dis
tinguished Union soldier, supported by
such opinions as he has now avowed, and
supplemented by a platform which should
have faithtully conformed to these ideas,
would \ have given to the Ohio Democracy
that which' they have not now—a to very
tolerable prospect for success at the polls.
We need not direct attention to the ex
tracts which we have made from his
letter. No comments are required. The
document speaks for itself. We have
only to remind our readers that it is
written by a Democratic nominee, who
declines to be their candidate, to the
official representatives of a great party in
Ohio. Considering this, the fitness of his
rebuke will be better understood.
FOLLY.
THE DEMOCRATIC CHICKAMAUGA
IN OHIO. •
The movement of the opposition in
Ohio, to capture Gen. Illsecrans as their
candidate for Governor, has resulted un
fortunately for that excellent party. De
clining the doubtful honor, 1 letter is a
long-winded lecture upon Democratic
back•slidings, with some sent ible admo
nitions upon the future cour e required
to save the party from con plete ruin.
We quote a few passages, whi ih serve to
show very clearly what good : easons the
General had, for declining a t omination
by that school of politicians. says :
The country requires, and the Demo •
cratic party ought to be a partyJof princi
ple, a party of life, of action anti of pro
gress. "Fossils" and fault-ft:iders do
not properly belong to the party, and, if
found in it, ought to go on the retired
list.
Leaving to its opponents of all shades
and grades all narrow and sectional`
grounds, all monopolies and favoritism
based on class, creed, race, color, or na
tional origin, the Democratic party of the
United States ought to hold high the ban
ner of universal freedom, impartial justice
and equality before the law of ill who
live beneath the flag of our country. * *
Based on these laws of our I , le and
growth; and repudiating the doctrine that
"might makes right," American t'emoc
racy hOlds that liberty consists n the
obedience of all to just laws. Thai these
laws should be the fewest and sit splest
possible, leaving the utmost indit idual
freedom of thought and action consistent
with equal rights and impartial jt stice,
and where individual action must t e reg
ulated by law, seeking always "the great
est goad to the greatest number."
This is the democracy I believe in, and
to which I am proud to belong.
• • * * * * *
No local declaration inviting a popular
prejudgment of any legal question about
the terms of payment of the'National
bonds should impair the priceless value of
the public credit at a time when it is im
portant to create the speediest means of
ridding the country of these enormous
oppressions, but every Democratic plat
form should tend to raise higher and
higher the public credit, and to satisfy
the people of Europe that the Democratic
is the last party in the United States that
proposes to whine or act reluctantly
about paying the public debt, even though
present holders should have bought it
belowits fair value.
2. An irredeemable paper currency, or
one perpetually fluctuating in value, is a
gigantic fraud on the people—a concen
tration of the evils of false weights, false
measures, and worse, injurious to all
classes, but especially to thou who live
by labor.
The Democracy should assert, with re
newed vigor and determination, its old
deelaration in favor of a specie basis and
a paper currency, convertible at par into
coin at the will of the holder, and should
take prompt and efficacious measures, to
raise our bonds to where the security
they offer and the interest they bear
ought to place them, so as to draw green
backs after them to par, with the least
possible delay. This will relieve all
classes, especially the laboring, and, aug
menting the valuation of our circulation
25 per cent., give a healthy and vigorous
impulse to every department of business
and industry. • * • *
Whosoever obtains votes under false
pretenses is a baser knave than he who
obtains goods under false pretenses, and,
on account of the greater difficulty of de
tecting and measuring the evil done, de
serves severer punishment and reproba
tion. • • * * * *
7. The Democratic doctrine of suffrage
requires distinct reaffirmation.
Democracy has always held that suf
frage is not a natural right of every hu
man being, nor of a particular sex or race,
but a particular privilege, and who should
exercise it a question to be decided by
what will produce "the greatest good to
the greatest number," and therefore as far
as possible, to be determined locally,
where lies„the great body of the rights of
the people.
Bala these local discussions the Dem
ocratic idea favors a broad rather than a
narrow basil of suffrage. It is not un
mindful or regardless of the rights of vio
nians:jof property and inferior races; but
Vire; s.effe4ve and advantageous

prefers giving the
right of voting to manliood and qualifi
cations, which will tend to create bonds of
political brotherhood between the rich
and poor, based on mutual interests, and
to avert conflicts between capital and
labor.
The caucus system. invented by the
Democracy as a practical way of finding
out who is a proper person to be voted for
where a constituency is too large to know
each other personally, and in spite of its
glaring imperfections and corruptions
now adopted by all parties, should be
Improved by the Democracy and care
fully regulated by wise provisions of law.
These views I believe to be explicitly
or implicitly held by three-fourths of our
voting population, and only require dis
tinct Democratic enunciation to elicit a
substantial response from the people, who
well know that neither a public policy
based on passions, nor RadiCalism, per se,
can long rule without ruining the coun
try, and would be glad to combine for
the public good on grounds that would
restore our State and National Adminis
trations to the spirit and practice of De
mocratic•Repnblican simplicity.
Should there be Democrats whose men
tal organization or temper does not per
mit them - to recognize existing facts, or
coaform their action to great popular
changes, let them, for the public good,
abdicate the leadership, and leave the ener
gies of the people free to act in the line of
life and progress.
RELIGIOUS INTELLIGENCE
The lamentable truth is conceded by
ministers and communicants of all evan
gelical denominations, that thousands of
new-comers to this city, especially from
foreign lands, are lost entire* to the
Churches from various causes. Prom
inent among the causes, is the neglect of
strangers to make themselves known to
the proper church authorities of their de
nominational profesilon, and neglecting
to bring certificates of dismission, and
the lack of using proper means by the
churches, in seeking out strangers and
obtaining infortnation upon this subject.
The question, however, is beginning to
be discussed, how to avoid this difficulty,
and it seems to be generally conceded
that the best course is for the chinch au
thorities on giving a certificate of dismis;
sion to send a notice of the fact to some min
ister residing in the place where the party
intends to reside, of the same faith, so
that the stranger may be waited upon and
solicited to hand in his certificate of dis
mission. The plan might be adopted in
this country and also be observed in
Europe. There is no doubt but that
multitudes might be saved to the
Church, if some systematic plan was
observed. This serves to introduce a
movement on foot . by Christ Episcopal
Church, Allegheny City, to reach Der
sons of foreign birth, who have been
raised and educated in the Church of Eng
land, or whose sympathies and prefer
ences at home were favorable to the
Established Church. To facilitate this
object a special service is to be held in
Christ Church, East Common, Alle
gheny, Sunday (to-morrow) evening, at
71 o'clock, to which all residents of both
cities and vicinity of foreign birth, who
were members of the Church of England,
or were accustomed to attend its services
in the Old Country, are particularly and
cordially invited to attend. The Rev. B.
F. Brooke, the talented Rector of that
Church, will be assisted on the occasion
by Bishop Kerfoot and several Presby
ters of the Diocese. It is proposed, in
connection with this service, to consider
the propriety of adopting suitable means
to provide special services for this class of
Churchmen, who have not been favored
in this respect, by reason of circum
stances indicated. The meeting promises
to be largely attended and interesting.
Rev. Robert Patterson. of Chicago,
formerly of the Reformed Presbyterian
Church, thinks that the superstition that
Rouse's version of the Psalms of David
should be the exclusive psalmody of the
Anglo-Saxon race, is of recent and
American origin. It was unknown one
hundred years ago in Britain. When he
was a child, in 1825, his nurse, a faithful
Covenanter, took him to a union Stin4ay
School at Letterkenny, and he sung,
"Salvation, 0 the joyful sound." This
school was supported in part by elders
and others of the Covenanting Church
in Ireland.
Hon. Henry S. Raymond, lately de
ceased, so widely and popularly known
as the editor of the New York Times, iu
early life was a professor of religion. and
intended as soon as he left college to enter
the ministry.
The Living Church argues that clergy.
men should have an annual vacation, and
both pastors and people would gain by
the respite.
Elder Knapp, the noted Baptist preach
er, is credited with the following prayer
in behalf of a Universalist preacher
named Brittain, at Bridgeport: "Lord,
shake the Universalist preacher over
hell! Riddle him over the hot embers!
Smite him! Send an awful tremor over
him! Fill his soul vvit v horror, that he
may frighten his folio ers back from
daninhtionl" Welutvn'tlearnedwhether
this prayer has been answered.
It is estimated that of the four hundred
students just graduated by twenty colle
ges under the charge of the -Methodist
Episcopal Church, between one-tenth and
one-fifth design to enter the min
istry. At least, says the Independent,
one hundred Methodists are graduating
Mother colleges, of whom ft . like propor
tion will enter the ministry.

eighteen thousand dollars have been paid,

raised eighteen thonsand dollars a year,
besides meeting current expenses. This
priest has lust been elected first Provin
cial of the new Jesuit Province of 'New

raising money is by aystematie _ efforts.
Congregations assume a responsibility,
and agree to raise a certain sum in a
given time, and the _clergy indicate the
plan by which the money, can be raised,
and then! the people meet the obligation
voluntarily. .
Rev. George Trask, the great Anti.to
bacco aliostle, writes to the Independent,
that he had been considered dead, but the
doctors ow tell him he has a new lease
of life, nd that he is to have the oppor
tunity to fight popular vices ten years
longer; but he says God knoweth. 'To
bacco users beware—Trask is not dead.
The Roman Catholics of ' Illinois are
considerably exercised in regard to the
administration of ecclesiastical affairs in
two of the dioceses, Alton and Chicago,
bah without bishops, through the death
of one and the insanity of the other. The
difficulty seems to be mainly because the
wishes ofthe Irish majority have not been
gratified with a selection of pastors. The
Alton administrator argues the point at
length, and then urges them to become
American in feeling, but in religion Ro- •
man Catholics.
We note with pleasure that the Amer
