.oLTrsCAL Etiquette.

The Democratic newspapers are in great
,ribu,ation because Of President Grants cO's-
duct. lie is meddling in the elections. He
has the impertinence to express preference
for the candidates Of the real Republican
party in different sections. This is contrary
to the Democratic idea Of Presidential Ell
uuette and decorum. Yes, it is a matter OF
history that the Democratic Presidents, who
supervised the affairs Of this nation for 50
MANY wears, religicnsly and rigidly, re-
Trained from all interference in the elections
throughout the country. They never ex-
pressed any desire for the election Of a ticket
in State in preference TO some other, and,
Of course, never used their official influence
to advance their wishes. II is a very lad
and wicked business, no doubt, If Grant has
really interested himself in influencing a
pending election in favor of the real RePub-
Iican party anywhere, and against the ny
brids-the soreheads, and their loving allies,
the Democrats. Particularly does this charge
weigh with crushing force against Mr.. Grant
when made by the representatives-the lineal
hut nearly run out, or played out, defendants Of
that ancient political organization, known IN
history rs the Democratic party. Mr.. Grant,
enjoys the inestimable advantage Of their ex-
ample, and If he don't follow il, he is justly
amenable to Democratic criticism.
The fever that seems to be raging among
our Democratic friends about Grants ill-con-
duct in this matter of interference in the cleo
,ions is q pretty good indication to the other
sort Of people, as to the quality Of the issue
between the contending factions, or what is
understood to be the contending faction, of the
Republican party in Missouri and some other
States. We confess that we have heretofore
been somewhat in doubt as to "who. was who
in Missouri, but the recent vehement as
saults by the Democratic press all over the
country upon President Grant, for what they
allege, he has done and is doing to influence
the election of the regular Republican ticket,
rather determines the matter in our mind.

To comment upon a woman with intended
depreciatory purpose has never been consid-
cred manly performance, but to envelop
the attack in a tissue of untruth in order
to render it more effective makes the
offence infinitely worse. The London
Guardian of the 18th ult., takes a
paper to task for its Justification, and
tells plain story to its confusion. The
the mother of Eugene, it is true, WAS Span
ish, Montijo- ''Plebeian," but menu
ler of one of the proudest and most aristo-
cratic houses; her father was not Irish, but
Scotch; neither was he "plebeian," for the
Kirkpatricks of Closeburn, as may be seen in
in "Burke's Peerage," are. or rather were.
what is called "principaP' family in Scot
land; they possessed lands in Nithsdale as
early as the beginning of the ninth century,
and they are alluded to in contemporary
documents As ''the martial Lairds of Close
burn" In fact, the "half Irish plebeian" is
really "nobly born Scotch-wOman."

the Accused.
BOSTON, Oct. 16-Tremont Temple was
crowded = the morning service to-day, as it
was generally supposed that Mr.. TitUn and
lager-beer would be among the subjects
which the Rev. j. ID. Fulton would consider.
Before the sermon, he referred to those sub
jects, and said he had been to New York
since "Wednesday, and found that there was
no Boston merchant who could testify that he
(Fulton) drank lager-beer in a Bovery sa-
loon. Mr.. Fulton said he found the So
called Boston merchant was a Snowman, and
the charge was that he drank the beer
during his college DAYS, fifteen years ago.
1t was alleged to have occurred in DR.. Armi-
tage's church, and DR.. Armitage testified
that he tFulton) was never in bis church till
two years ago.
In the course Of his prayer Mr.. Fulton re-
ferred to the matter several times, and pray
cd most earnestly for his enemies, and asked
especial blessings On Mr.. Tilton and the
Snowman. He announced that in the even
ing he should treat the matter at length,
