gay~ Our City Council is justly fame

Bsy~ Our City Council is justly famed
for its rapid transaction of business. 1t
is rare that its members deem it neces-
sary to set forth at length their reasons
for supporting any proposition they in =
troduce. Brief explanations are usual
ly considered sufficient to secure for
? any document all the attention its mer-
it's demand. Our community is nobly
served by Councilmen whose talents
qualify them for eminent positions. Do
their constituents reflect that in this
small body are gentlemen celebrated fol
their literary and legal attachments,
who have faithfully served them for
years, whose only reward is the con-
seriousness of having contributed to the
prosperity of their fellow citizens
Ripe scholars, men of excellent judg-
ment, experts on whose advice and by
whose aid important enterprises are
2 successfully conducted, year after year
4 patiently investigate reports and COM
munications bristling with figures, or
containing suggestions which require
deliberate reflection. Energetic men
who set wheels of Industry in motion,
find recreation in planning improve
ments to add to the value and attract
iveness of our surroundings. The hum.
blest member of onr municipal council
is Justly entitled to the hearty thank-
of the public for his devotion to theil
best interests. In these days, when
the motives of officials are too Otter
impugned and their acts belied, it i,
gratifying to bear testimony to the
unflagging industry, wise plans an(
sterling integrity of the gentlemen who
represent the people of Elizabeth il
their City Council. A close observe
of our Councilmen's doings, WHOSE
business during long period ha
qualified him to appreciate the magni
tude of their labors, deems it a pleas
ure, as it is his duty, to place on re
cord this tribute to their worth.

1t is rather late in the day for the
Ledger to wake up to the conscious
ness that there is a party, respectable
in numbers and influence in this
country, which inclines very strongly
to Senator MoRToN's opinion Of the
Democracy. Unpleasant as may be
the fact to the Ledger, there are per-
sons in this country who think the
conduct of the Democratic leaders
during the war fully as dishOnOrable
as it is represented by the extract
quoted above; and it is hardly wortl
while for the Ledger to get excited
about it, and charge them with being

Under this startling caption the
New Albany Ledger devotes a lengthy
editorial to Senator MORTON, and
seeks to fasten upon him that apro-
bious epithet. When we opened up
the ledger and our eyes fell upon the
taking title, we entered upon its
perusal with our mind prepared for
some startling revelation of ignoniny
or crime. We knew that the Ledger
editor did not regard the Elk Cover
nor and United States Senator as
model Of Christian excellence; but
we concluded that nothing but some
astounding proofs of his low estimate
of the Senator's character could in
duee him to exhaust himself on sueb
a labored editorial in these hot DAYS
We have finished the lengthy edito-
rial, and are relieved Of the grave
suspicious awakened by our cotempo-
rary. 1t is not for any high crimes
or misdemeanors committed against
the nation. religion, or society that
the Senator has been paraded before
the public, under the startling head
line Of "A BAD MAN, but he has
actually committed the grievous Of
Tense in his recent Ohio speech of
arraigning the Democratic party for
its own record. For this, and this
alone, the Ledger has waxed wroth in
dog days. The only thing which
the editor brings forward to prove its
charge is the following extract from
Senator MoRToN's speech at Will
mington, Ohio, last week: 94
But what, on the other hand has
the Democratic party to offer in con-

THAT was telling point made BY
Senator MoRToN in the opening para
graph Of his speech at Wilmington
last week. OF the two parties now
appealing for popular support, one
proudly points to its record; the other
implores that the past be forgotten.
One expects confidence to be placed
in its promises for the future, because
of It's conduct in days gone by; the
other asks to be trusted on its simple
professions, regardless Of the lessons
OF experience. Democracy retains its
old character and instincts, yet asks
that the fruits Of Its faith duIing a
great national crisis shall be kept out
of sight. Or, as Governor MORTON
says, with epigrammatic terseness;
1t does not invoke the pleasures OF
memory, but invites the blessings Of
oblivion. .

that he had other fish to fry. On this
point we find an intimation IN q little

when he was on his way to San
Francisco. II the course Of a few re-
marks which he made in response to
the courtesies rendered him, he an
nounced that his intention was to pro
