The Baltimore Gazette says THE ruin or
prosperity of Republic depends upon the
manner in which its Government is admins
tered, and that Government is best of all whose
presence is least seen in the conduct of affairs,
and whose hand is least felt. But no Govern
ment is so much to be dreaded as that of fac
ton. By the very necessity of its being it must
be despotic, if it would retain its hold of pow
er and corrupt, if it would secure the allegi-
ance of its supporters. Against such Gov
erumcnt, it is the duty Of all good men to COM
bine What grander motive can the Demo
Gratis have for subordinating old prcjudices and
cherished party ties to the exigcncies Of the
time and the occasion?'

WEDNESDAY, JULY s, 1872.

The Radical leaders think they are using
powerful argument against the Conservatives,
when they quote the writings and speeches of
Mr.. Greeley, before, during and sometimes,
since the late war. Have they seen OF heard
of any Conservative who advocates no'o, the
sentiments he then condemned The Conser-
natives and Democrats do not enter into de-
fence of ideas formerly expressed, and which
met with their disapprobation. But they will
support Mr.. Greeley because he is opposed
now to the course and policy at the present ad-
miuistration, and stands upon and will carry
out, as far as he can, the excellent political
principles of the Cincinnati Convention, and
endeavor to effect a Reform in the Govern
ment. These surely are sufficient reasons to
Justify their course, and to excite their energy.
They are looking to the future good and to the
best interests Of their country for the time that
is to come. It is an honest and patriotic effort
in behalf of peace, harmony and prosperity,
which impels them to unite in bringing about
the election Of MIR. Greeley.

AFIENDlsI MAN-In Albany, New York, a

ShiIfard, had an alteration while the wor k of
casting was going on which had fearful re.

foot and burned it. Shifard ran to tub Of
water and plunged his foot into it, and some
what eased the pain. He then returned and
taking position in the passagcway between
the molten iron knocked Sheehey down.
According to the allegations which Sheehey
makes, Shilfard, after Knocking him down, pick"
ed up the ladle containing molten iron and pour
ed its contents, upon Sheehey's body from his
chin down, and then struck him with the lsdle.
Sheehey was rendered frantic by the terrible
agony which he experienced, and ran to the
door, when he was seized and his burning
garments torn from him by other persons pres
eut. The whole fore part of his body was
burned in terrible manner, SO that the flesh

an honest man. IF he will carry out his
pledges he was satisfied If he does not, he

run some risk. The democrats have nothing
