The Republican Candidates.

We clip the following timelY afticle
from recent number Of the long Island
Farmer an old and highly influential
Republican journal, published at Jamai-
ca, the home of John A. King. It's truths
are indisputablc.
There is a great amount Of small talk,
just at present, about Jahn G. Fremont.
and every babbler spouts away as if it
were an easy talk to overthrow the facts
OF History. Before the nomination of
Fremont, the leading Democrats of the
Country had spoken their sentiments
freely as to his ability. honesty. and high
reputation, these were not their honest
opinions, declared before his prospects for
the White House were as bright as at
present, but now when he is likely to de-
feat the old Federalist, who has become
the chosen leader of the modern Democra-
cy, the tune is changed and t" the noble
gallant and intelligent gentlemen, scholar
and discoverer," of whom a distinguished
Democrat Of Ohio, in Congress in 1853,
said:
"He Is a small man, bit Is he Is gal-
liant as any mass of stuff Of the same size
as ever was wrapped in coat; and sir he
met combination Of enemies such as very
few of the public servants Of this Repub-
lie have met. He has garnered up rep
utation by deeds of almost unparalleled
peril" This man is suddenly and violent

Maxims and Rules of Life.


Remember that every person, however
low, has rights and feelings.
In all your contentious, let peace be
rather your object than triumph.
Value triumph only as the means OF
peace.
Do not attempt to frlghten your chill
dren and interiors by passion : it does
more harm to your own character than
it does good to them; thesame thing is bet
ter done by frmness and persuasion.
Find fault when you must find fault, in
private, Hpossible; and some time after
the offence, rather than at the time.

when they are blamed without witnesses
