POETRY.
Fame.
BY ALICE CAR

Fame guards the wreath we call crown
With other wreaths of fire,
And dragging this or that man down
Will not raise you the higher!
Fear not too much the open seas,
Nor yet yourself misdoubt;
Clear the bright wake of geniuses,
Then steadily steer out.
That wicked men in league should be
To push your craft aside,
Is not the hint of modesty,
But the paor conceit Of pride.

THE actien of the Constitutional Con-
vention in refusing to permit the present
election officers in Philadelphia to conduct
cember, for the adoption or rejection of
the new Constitution, vindicates all that
has been said by the Democratic party
against the frauds that have been perpe-
trated by the corrupt ring OF that city
under cover of the infamous registry law
1t is also pointed rebuke to Radical
Legislature which has persistently refused,
at the impudent dictation of VIM. b.
Mann, to change or modify the law in the
interests of fair and honest election.
] Whether Harry White, who has always
been its apologist in the Senate and opposed
to its amendment, voted in the Conven-
tion in favor OF or against the proposition
of Ignoring the present election officers in
this particular instance, we do not know.
Coming from a body of high-minded, intel
ligent men, unswayed by party feeling and
! sohcitous only for an honest and uncor-
rupted response from the ballot-boxes in
that rlng-ridden city, it is an emphatic
and manly condemnation of White and
his allies in the Legislature, who have
been more concerned for ring supremacy
and fraudulent elections in PHILADELPHIA
/ than that the honest vote of her citizens
should be protected and fairly proclaimed.
The Convention having thus squarely re-
pudated the Philadelphia registry law
and all its iniquities, Wm. B. Mann, who
is its father, and the Radical members of
the Legislature who sustained and defend
ed it, can now realize the fact that an
election law Purposely designed against
the purity of the ballot-box must and will
disappear before the wrath of an indignant
people.

THE late election in this county having
sent Thomas Griffith E.where the wood bine
twineth," we had right to suppose that
his friends would permit his political re-
mains to rest .undisturbed. The Herald
of last week, however, resurrected him and
once more brought him to the front. In
referring to our statement, that Griffith
had gone to St. Nicholas on the Sunday
before the election and purchased two kegs
Of lager beer, and then and there used
their contents for elsctioneering purposes,
that paper makes the distinct charge that
what was imputed to Griffith was really
done by his opponent, A. d. Criste, on the
Sunday precious to the one spoken of
The Herald says: ''T'he aoriler seems to be
ignorant Of the fact that aohat he CHARGES
.Nr. Griffith Nth hdUing done, soas done by
4. d. Criste the Sunday prior to the one
en- question" The man who wrote this
sentence knew at the time that he was utter
ing wilful, deliberate falsehooo. We,have
the authority of Mr.. Criste for saying that
during the campaign he made but one visit
to st. Nicholas, and that Was in September,
on Saturday. that Samuel Henry, John
7, Harris, Republican candidate for Sher-
III, and Thomas Davis, Chairman OF the
Republican County Committee, were there
ON the same day-and that on the sec0nd
Sunday previous to the election, on which
day the Herald locates him (Criste) at St.
Nicholas buying two kegs of lager beer,
he went to church at Summitville in the
morning and was at his home in Munster
during the balance of the day Having
made this statement, our readers can form
their own opinion of the veracity of the
man who presides over the editorial depart
Inent of the Herald.
1t is said, also, in the same article, that
we grossly slandered and misrepresented
Mr.. Griffith throughout the campaign" ,"
y e deny it and appeal to the record. If
% expose the electioneerihg devices of a
candidate constitutes a SANDER against him.
we adthit the charge, but no man outside
of a lunatic asylum will so eonstrue ii.
We never uttered tithe of what we ought
to have said in reference to his naodus op-
N5andi during the campaign Ifthe whole
truth had been stated, it would have been
