THE way to thoroughly establish the

lHk way 10 thoroughly estaDlish the
credit of a state is to make such an exhibit
of its resources as will entirely satisfy the
financial world of its ability to pay its obi
cations as they mature. Voting to pay
debt when it natures adds nothing to the
public credit so long as the financial exhib-
it shows an utter inability to pay. There
is nothing gained by substituting promise
for promise, or building financial castles in
the air; but the sooner people come
right down to the hard-pan of cash pay
ment, and demonstrate their ability to
meet their obligations as they mature, the
sooner will they cfiectually establish their
credit, and place their securities on par
with those of other states. All the fund
ing bills in the world, with all the bravado
of cash payment that may accompany
them, will never lift state security one
inch in the scale of its true market value.
On the contrary, the effect of all such in
sufficient measures is, and of necessity
must be, to depress the scale of its value.

No Democrat would mark out better
course for it than these distinguished Re-
publican insurgents are directing it into,
and no Democrat could ask for it more
avengng process than it is making.-jS.
Louis Republican.
This is the comforting assurance which
the Schurz-Brown organ of Missouri gives
the Democracy of the country, in its refer
ence to the Anti-Grant movement about to
eliminate in the Cincinnati Convention and
this is the ''avenging process" to which the
great Democratic party of the country is TO
come at last. 1t is to place itself under
the leadership of such men as Carl schurz,
Gratz Brown and company, with such a
forlon hope of Republican insurgents as
these men can gather around them, and
march to the ''avenging process" with a
vengeance. No Democrat, we are assured,
could mark out a better course, or one full
Ter of promise to the party. "Mount our
political donkey, and your fortunes are
made" is the comforting assurance of these
party insurgents. To ride any other ami
NAL, is to continue under the same i'll
starred guidance that has led to defeat after
defeat in the Democratic ranks.
But has it occurred to these blind lead
ers of the blind that no party detection of
this kind has ever been successful in this,
or any other country, where the popular
will determines the popular triumph of po-
litical parties. In some instances, it is
true, such organizations have resulted in
changing the relative strength of parties,
and throwing the election into other hands
than would have secured it, had no such
organization been effected; but in no
instance has such movement been
crowned with success, with or without
the alliance of a third party. The people
rarely, if ever, have any faith in "political
insurgents, those who break away from
party alliance with no higher purpose than
to get office by climbing up some other
way" 1t is only those who rise in revolt
or opposition to some oppressive civil or
political authority, in reference to which
the great mass of the people are a unit in
sentiment and sympathy, who can have
any well-grounded assurance of success.
Those who are merely insubordinate and
rebellious in the ranks of a party organiza-
ton, rarely have any popular sympathy,
and more rarely meet with any popular
success. The world looks upon them as
either mulish and impractical, or as seek
ing success by questionable if not disrepu-
table means.

THERE are many tests by which true
greatness can be measured, but none more
certain than that which unmerted public
abuse furnishes. To re the best abused
public man in the country, and not to SO
chaie and fret under it as to lose either
flesh or temper, is the highest evidence that
any man can have that he is :" truly great.n
Hard rubbing has the same effect upon
such man as the burr-stone has upon
pure steel-it gives a brighter polish to
him, as well as higher value in the worlds
estimation. Let the yillifers of General
Grant apply this test to him. They must
admit that no man has ever stood rubbing
better, however unwilling they may be to
acknowledge the effect it has had on him.
1t is hard to ruffie the temper of one who
never allows himself to be outfanked by
his enemies.

GOVERNOR PALMER, of Illinois, has
peremptorily declined the overtures made
to him by the Gratz Brown Republicans
and passive policy Democrats, to accept the
nomination for the Presidency from the
Cincinnati convention, stating most emphat-
ically that he is warm personal friend of
General Grant, and that he intends to sup
port his administration during his present
term and the next, if he is renominated.
Gov. Palmer is too old bird to be caught
by this Cincinnati chaff. <
