THE DOCTRINE of AVAILABILITY

IN the nomination Of General Scott the
wings have again affirmed the doctrine
Of !. availability.' They have sacrificed
hotor, friendship, principles-in fact,
everything that is valuabe-to introduce
another Mexican hero before the people to
captivate them with the glory Of army, and
blind them to his untitness for civil office
by the success if not the brilliancy Of his
military exploits. In 1910, they brought
out Gen. Harrison, but he had served the
casntry in several civil capa cities. and had
N feast some idea OF the duties he was
10 perform. A fatal honor for him! The
wing Office hunters worried him to death.
ln 1914, they tried an eminent statesman
one whom the whole country admired,
and to whom the whis party was devoted
" attached. That campaign was contest
ed upon principle. and the glorious demo
cracy triumphed. Conscious of their
weakness, the wings nominate ed in 1913 the
hero of war they bitterly opposed. The
war was popular. General Taylor had
fought gallantiy for his country, and the
sraititude Of the people elected him. Fatal
honor to him! 1t is said he died of cher
res and cold mild. And no doubt the
ph ysicisns affixed learned name to his
disease, but the whig office hunters worried
him t" death. They gave him no peace
day or night.
He confessed his un6tness. He sur
rendere. his power to his cabinet officers,
and pretty business they made of it.

amount they obtained must have been
from $4,000 to $4,000. and thinks
there must be more still left in the spot
whence this was dug. But the men are

might lead tothe discovery Of the exact
scene Of their operations. The story
reads a good deal like romance.

failure to make any such charge to Mr Kerr

In addition to this the Times publishes
a Communication from Greensboroush,
signed "a Citizen," in which an attempt
Is made to produce the impression that
Gov Reid wrote the Communication
referred to. signed "A Democrat giving

! We come forward at once to stamp this
charge as false. Gov. Reid neither wrote
the Communication referred to, nor had
he, as we feel confident. any knowledge

not in his hand writing. as any gentleman
who chooses to examine it can see tor
