The New York World of Thursday,
commenting on Greeley's letter of ac-
.ceptance, says:
If mere talent for composition were
the chief qualification for President,
there is many a reporter or our me-
tropolitan joGrnals who would have
higher claims to that Office than even
Charles Francis Adams. Skill in phrase
making is trivial accomplishments; and
yet this is the only thing in which Mr..
Greeley eXcels. He has no steadinesS
of Judgment; no administrative capa-
city; he is easily gulled by fiatterers; if
elected, he would be as constantly in
hot water as he was during the brief
period he served in Congress. when he
was regarded as nuisance by the men,
bers of both parties. His officious re-
writing of the Cincinnati platform,
which he acknowledges is succinctly
and ably expressed, is such display OF
weak literary vanity, and such parad-
ing of his ability to write good Eng
Iish, as shows that he was not born to
/ be statesman. Craftsmanship deals
with things, not with phrases. If Mr..
Greeley approves and accepts the
Cincinnati platform, which he praises
and applauds, why need he have re-
written it in his letter of acceptance
1t is an offensive assumption of superb
liority to the committee who drafted the
resolutions, and "smells of the shop
in which Mr.. Greeley has SO long work
| ed, His elaborate rewriting of the
| tCIncinnati platform is such an assump-
ton of superiority in minor matter,
as the committee that prepared the res
olutions will naturally resent; at all
events, it is most unexampled thing
| in a letter of acceptance.
The platform as he has newly framed
it, cont1adicts and puts to shame the
record of his public life. 1t is an abject
remuneration of almost everything
(which he has spent his life in advocat-
ing. This stiff bid for Democratic votes
at the sacrifice of consistency, stamps
Thin as demagogue. He has virtual
| iy given up everything for which he
has been contending for the last forty
years, political philosophy and all. 1t
would be curious to append to each ar
tticle of the Cincinnati platform, as he
| has refashioned ii, contradicting quota
tions from his own writing on the same
points. The contrast might not make
him blush; but it would convince the
country that Mr.. Greeley is ready to
tmake any saerifceof principle and con-
sistency, to crafty his ambition OF
spending four years in the White House
as the dispenser of offices. His letter
lof acceptance, though well enough
written, is, in tone and substance, a
stump speech, such as no candidate ever
before offered to the people on a similar
occasion. This abject appeal for Dem
ocratic votes can do him no good; the
motive for abjuring his previous opin-
ions is too easily seen through.

A Story of Woman's Constancy.


The Marion, Co., Mirror says: Five
years ago Ira F. Holland, a young and
energetic man, settled down in the
county of Calhoun, Michigan, near the
city Of Marshall, and applied himself
to farming. Young Holland was in
industrious and economical, and SEEM
ed on the fair road to competence, if
not wealth. 1t was the haoit of Ira to
visit a Mr.. Bingly, who resided in the
city of Marshall, and who ws.s one of
its wealthiest residents, and to deposit
with him all his surplus money. In
this manner afrer a couple of years,
young Holland had accumulated some
$1,000, which amount remained in the
hands of Mr.. Bingley. He met the
daughter OF the latter, young and very
beautiful girl, who was most fiivorably
impressed with his manly bearing.
Young Holland fell deeply in love with
the fair Alice almost at the fist meet
ing. With every subsequent meeting
his passion increased, and after three
months acquaintance he received the
assurance from the maiden's lips that
his passion was returned. But his
hopes were doomed to a terrible disap-
pOintment. The young couple return
ed home from a delightful ramble one
day. As they entered the house OF
Miss Bingley they were met by the
father, who was in high state of ex-
element. He ordered young Holland
from the house, placing in his hands
the amount of money left with him,
and sternly orbade further intercourse
with the family. On the following day
Holland was arrested on the charge OF
horse-stealing, and the trial ELECTED suffi-
cient proof to sentence his:i to peniten-
tiary. 1t appeared that a valuable
span ofhorses had been stolen from the
barn Of Mr.. Bingley, and had been sold
in the city of Grand Rapids by a young
man who answered exactly to the ap-
pearance of young Holland, who had
been absent from home at the time OF
the sale-On business of his own as he
stated it. but which of course, was not
credited by the court. In consideration
of his excellent character before the
crime, the court was lenient, and return.
ed sentence of three years, imprison.
ment. Holland was hasted away tC
prison amid his protestations of limo
cence, and without an opportunity oi
speaking a word to his betrGthed
Wearily dragged on the months to the
convict, but at last his term of sentence
expired, and he issued forth from the
prison doors bowed down and heart
broken man, his hair whitened before
its time by the great mental anguish he
had endured. He came to Cleveland
and there he met Alice Bingley. She
tired of the scenes amid which she had
suffered so much removed to Cleveland
and was living with her mothers sister
She had adhered with all a woman's
devotedness to memory of her convict
lover, and had never deemed him gull
ty of the crime charged to him. The
long separated couple were married, and
Immediately took there way to Kansas
intending to commence life together in
that section.
