FEEBLE ATTEMPTS AT FAuLT-rINDING.

The Democratic newspapers have sought, with
very poor success, to find subject for criticism in
Mr.. Coursey's excellent and manly letter Of ac-
ceptance. In fact, Mr. Coursey wrote a plain,
straightforward, honest letter. and our opponents,
accustomed to the sidewise, backward, serpen-
tine policy of their party leaders, are somewhat
dazed at its appearance. They have grown into
the too common belief that the candidate for
Office desires, and needs, to deceive the people,
and that his public communications should be
characterized by adroit subterfuge, double
dealing, and hypocrisy. On the contrary, Mr.
Coursey addressing himself to few subjects
such as the occasion made appropriate, express
ed the candid thoughts of an upright and public
spirited citizen.
As TO Mr., Courseys knowledge of State history,
it is hardly worth while to hang ain attempt at
criticism. on so slender a peg as the assertion
that his letter is at fanlt in that respect Canli-
dates for Governor. sail Mr.. Coursey, have rarely
been taken from the rural districts and the COM
mon walks of life. Now, this is true. Governor
salisbury is a resident of Dover, and physician.
His opponent, Mr. Riddle, is large inanufac-
turer. Governor Cannon was an active ener-
bciN pusulee- man, ehEaSeu III thelcdilflt lHE-
suits, but not in the common acceptance Of the
term working man. Governor loss was a
farmer, hut lie conducted his operations on a
large scale by slave labor. and, il we are correct
was never workman in his own fields Cover
nor Tharp on the other hand. trds from the
rural districts and like Mr. Courscy, rlain
citizen, used to hard work and without having
had the best advantages of education. But lie
made. it is safe to say. quite as good Governor,
as others more favored by fortune, in the extent
Of their early education. So that, in fact Mr.
| Coursey's statement as to our recent Governors
is substantially accurate.
The degree of popular acceptance with which
the honorable and most creditable letter Of oui
excellent candidate has been receiyelis sufficient
snswer TO the pu,!y criticisms to which We have
referred. The good citizens Of the State sup

WIFE MURDER AND SUICIDE IN ILLINOIS,
The Illinois State journal contains the blowing
account OF a double tragedy which occurred
near Lincoln, i'm that State, about a week ago:
some of the most horrible tragediesbccurrei
about four miles west OF Lincoln that has ever
horrified the people of Logan county. The per-
petratOr Of this crime was one of til wealthy
and respected persons Of the county. He was a
farmer, living near Salt Greek, by TIL name of
John l.. Phipps, and was married to Jiss Kate
Buckles late last fall. Their matrimOial affairs
were not pleasant; the disparity Of heir ages
was great-but this was not all. He had
an extremely jealous disposition On the
18th instant he told his hired mn that he
wished he would "watch OUT fir thieves,
for he expected some there ths evening.
then climbed to the top OF a haystak. and ap-
peared to be watching for somebody Upon re-
turning to the house he met the maragain, and
asked him if he had seen any me. Being
answered no +, he asked If any of thexomen had
been out, and was answered that Ms. Buckles
(Mr. Phippss mother-in-law) had Ieen to the
well. Mr.. and Mrs. Phipps soon reted to their
room for the night. In few mSnents Mrs.
Buckles and the hired man were stStled by the
report Of q pistol, which was sooDOllOwed by
another, and Mrs. Phipps rushed fSm the bed
room into the kitchen and fell upn the floor.
On going to the room, Mr.. Phipps 'as found on
the floor dead, the bullet having passed through
his head from a revolver in his Owrhands. The
wife was also shot through the baclof the head,
and died next morning. She VT unable to
speak coherently during the night,
