That England has lost one of Der nobestworthies
in the death of the Duke Of Wellington, none will
deny. He had vast and various abilities and an
extraordinary power Of combination by which, in
almost every instance, the success was insured be-
fore the attempt was begun. His mind was Of an
original and solid cast, admirably balanced and
combining the comprehensiyeness of reason with
the penetration of instinct. Its controlling element
was strong sterling sense, that of itself rendered
him a wise counsellor and asafe leader. He never
had great personal popularity. Whilst he extorted
the respect and confidence of his troops, accustom-
ing them, as he did 10 look upon the day of battle
as one of assured victory, he never regarded by
his soldiers with personal affection, much less en-
thusiasm, like that which Nelson or Napoleon in
spired. Inciyilife he had no hold whatever upon
the popular heart There was no liberality in his
notions and maxims Of civil policy. He had no
great faith in the progress Of humanity, no lively
feeling in the strength andmajesty of moral power

Our counsels are against this practice, for rea-
sons of both morality and policy; and we are glad
to perceive that the New York Tribune, earnest
ly opposes it. That paper says:
"For several years the Sham Democracy carried
this city by the money which Wings were allured
into betting with them, The plan of Operations
was this: The managers would bet as much as they
thought necessary-say $50, OO0-in such sums as
they cond pick up, and then go to desperate, UNI
principled men and tell them I'VE have $1,000 bet
on this election. Help us win and you shall have
thought proper to give. Thus four or five hundred
reckless politicians virtually told Get in ten
or fifteen illegal votes, each of you, and you Shall
have 300 for your dexterty.' And thus the
Wings were repeatedly beaten by frauds for which
they were made TO pay the entire cost. Had there
been no bets made on the election of 1874 New
York would have voted for Henry Clay and cleo
ted him. Gigantic frauds defeated him; and the
basis of these frauds was betting.
IT,rhe purblind, the tiInid, the incredulous, now
begin to see that Gen. Scott is to be elected. The
uprising of the people in his behalf within the last
three weeks, has been unprecedented. The en-
thusiasm of his supporters issill on the increase;
the confidence of success, even among those who
believed from the first, gains force daily. He can
only be beaten by corruption and fraudulent yo-
ting; and these can only be got up on sufficiently
gigantic scale through betting. Whoever makes a
bet on the result contributes indirectly to corrupt
the eanpass and defeat Gen.liSeott. Rhat Wig
tciH deliberately do thati"
We ask our Wing friends to give their serious
attention to the above, and TO avoid betting. At
best it is but gambling, but it is also attended by
effects disastrous to our interests. 81 ist
We think it was DR.. johnson who said that bet
ting was the FOOLS argument; but it appears the
knave also knows how to apply it to his use.
