senator wade.

There are Republican newspapers
that believe that the President is
guilty of crime, aud favor impeach-
Iment, but they hate the idea of Mr..
Wade becoming Acting President, and
this has no better ground than mere
personal feeling. No one need ever To
be at loss as to where to find Senator
Wade on any of the great questions
that have agitsted the country. Neith-
Ier has his honesty ever been seriously
doubted by friend or foe. He iSthere-,
fore the kind of a. man the people
needs in this country, when the Treas
ury is being robbed by corrupt rings,
who are protected by the Administra-
ton. The. people feel the need of the
services Of q brave, wise and thorough
iy honest man in the Presidential chair.
Such man is Mr.. Wade, and if he
should succeed Mr., Johnsous he will
save to the taxpayers between now
and the Attn of March fifty millions of
dollars, by turning out corruptionists
and filling their places with honest
men. Soreheads' and wbiskey rings
may bark at Mr.. Wade, but they can
not rob him Of the splendid reputation
be has fairly won for honesty and con-
Isistency as statesman, and strict in
tegrity as a man. The Chicago noni-
nation is not worthy Of consideration in
this connection. If it Is the viii of the
people he will be nominated. Ii not,
somebody else will be chosen. Of one
thing, however, people may rest as
sured: No doubtful man will be nom-
mated in that Convention for Vice
President. Our experience with Mr..
Johnson has settled that question. !
Furthermore, those who insinuate that
Mr.. Wade will do anything, whether
in office or out of it, to secure the NOM
ination of Vice President, either 10 not
know the man, or they wiilfully mis-
represent him. He is no wire worker.
He never did anything. to push himself
forward, aud those who know the man
are fully aware that he never viii. He

sugar suasion.

Rev. H. W. Beecher, discloscs his
dissent from the wisdom of Solomon in
the management of children. He would
not only "spare the rod," but give up
its use altogether. For therod he would
substitute the stick; not the stick Of
birch, but the stick of candy. Perhaps
it would be even better to employ a
cane-a sugar cane. But all sweets
are apt to turn sour in digestion. Here
is an extract from Brother Beecher's es-
say n5,
~" As for children, we tried the rod
on our own children, but are now try
ing the sugsr-plum with eur grandchild-
rsp. Thus far our success is remark
able. Family government has risen in
popularity. Children cry for it Our
children used to look with aversion on
the spot where We locked up the switch; ;
but now there is not in the whole house
place so favorite as the drawer where
is stored the sweet moral suasion. Good
conduct thrives. Obedience is at
premium! The viii is broken! The
children are governed without knowing
it! Blessings ON sugar-plumsll"

has been established on a novel plan:
No man can join unless he has been an
inveterate topper. The President and
chief officers were selected on account
of their prowess in conviVal circles. For

clearly proved, the culprit is to be dip

The campaign against him would be
fought by his latest Tweddle Hall
speeches. And if he could be per-
suayied into the droll contest he would
merely take his place by the side of
Mcclellan.
Mr.. Pendleton comes into the Con-
vention saying. 81 openly opposed the
war; you, my friends, opposed it secret
ly. I am perfectly willing to cast con-
tempt upon the war debt, by pay ing pa
per instead of gold. You can plead the
letter of the law and go with me. As
for Brother Seymour, he is fossil. !"
And with their unerring instinct for the
course which an honest and honorable
people detest, the chance undoubtedly
is, that the Democratic managers will
acquiesce in the nomination of Mr. PEN

land, Ohio, and in Wall Street, New
York, advertise that they have bought
the college scrip Of nine States, which
they mention, covering two millions
four hundred and eighty-two thousand
acres. Now if these monopolists had
become possessed of only every other
section, the monopoly would have been,
in one sense at least, no monopoly at all.
Especially important is it to guard
against this unbroken possession of land
when the same lies along the line Of
either an actual or prospective railroad.
The pioneer should not be compelled,
in case he seeks asettleme ment on the pub
lie domain, to go ten or twenty miles
back from the railway. Only one-half,
then, should be parted with by the Gov
ment to any except actual settlers.
Strict fidelity to these rules would
obviate all the real objections urged
against our present land grant system. p
Deeply sympathizing with the Chair
man of the House Committee on Public
Lands in his Iaudable endeavor to pre-
vent the squandering of our broad do
main, we most earnestly hope Congress
will not mistake the evils resulting from
loose legislation upon this subject for
inherent evils. The truth is that the
plan of making our wild lands help build
our national railroads, and found our
universities was most happy thought.
Carried out subject to the limitations
we have specified, it car not fail of be-
ing pre- eminently beneficial to the coun-
try. Each State may have a truly first
class college and the farmers of the in
terror may enjoy the luxury and profit
of railway facilities. The poverty of
educational advantages and wearisome
delays in travel experienced by the early
settlers of Illinois belong to the past.
The pioneers of our day may find their
wants anticipated by the consummate
wisdom of our national legislators. In-
stead of boarding our public land, as
miser does his gold, we have wisely
adopted the plan of selling part of it
TO enhance the value of what remains,
and promote the general prosperity Of
the entire country.

DEMOCRACY AND REPUTATION.

Another sign of the times is the pas
sage of the resolutions in the New York
Assembly recommending that the Gov
ernment bonds be taxed. Every men,
ber of the Democratic majority, except
three or four, voted for them, and every
Republican but two or three, voted
against them. This is direct approval
by the Democratic party in this State of
the Pendleton policy. 1t shows that
Mr.. Pendleton is very likely to be q
dangerous candidate for Mr.. Horatio
Seymour in the Democratic Convention.
We speak Of Mr.. Seymour as a candi-
date, although he has written two let
ters Withdrawing his name. But as
some Of his own party papers treat Mr..
Seymour's denial as Mr.. Toots used to
treat himself, as of no consequence, it
may be assumed that his withdrawal is
purely Pickwickian, and that Barkis
will be found willin' if an importunate
Convention insists.
Indeed, one of the most gratifying
spectacles that could be offered to the
lovers of blushing sincerity in public
life would be Horatio Seymour, at Tam
many Hall, on the 4th of July next,
declaring. with his hand upon his heart.
that he reluctantly yielded his most fer
vent and cherished desire Of private
life to the warm entreaty Of friends
whose wishes it was his duty to prefer
to his own. But unless he takes great
care he will be deprived of the opportu-
nifty. The Democratic party are very
likely TO demand q man of positive
opinions war man or peace man
a man like Hancock, who fought, or a
man like Pendleton, who denounced the
war, and was secessionist. But a
mere trimmer, who has nothing to
recommend him to either positive fac
ton of his party, except that he said he
preferred the salvation Of slavery to
that of the Union-does not Mr.. Sey-
mour think the chances Of such a candi-
date at least doubtful?
This decided expression o: opinion
in favor Of virtual reputation by the
Democratic majority of the New York
Legislature, shows that the National
Convention of the party will be ire
sistibly urged to declare itself in the
same way. Crafty managers may try to
avoid it, but the Convention will proba-
bly, do in the matter Of reputation what
that at Chicago in 1864 did in the mat
ter of the war. Whatever might have
been the wish of the managers, VAL
landigham and the peace Copperheads
had their way, and declared the war q
failure. The Chicago platform of 1864
virtually demanded surrender to the re-
bellion the New York platform of 1868
will virtually demand population The
Chicago Convention put soldier upon
thoir peace platform. But even Mr..
Seymour could hardly accommodate
himself to platform of Reputation
