EFMPEPiS dpOLOG Y,

1t is hardly worth while to waste much in
genuity in assigning motives for Gov. KEN
per's letter giving what may be called, for
want of better word, his views in regard to
a second reelection of Gen. Grant. He seems
to be man of limited intelligence and unlim-
tied personal vanity, with stronger taste for
public life than is justified by his capacity for
it,. He has evidently been greatly pleased by
the gossip current in Richmond that he and
his friend Col. Mosby were arranging third
term movement which would carry the South
ern Conservatives in body over to Gen.
Grant, and seizes the opportunity to define
his position. In that fussy luxurance of die
ton so dear to men of his caliber, he wraps
his intentions away out Of sight, and leaves
no hint of any purpose he may have IN future
But as there is good deal too much leisure
at this time in the South, his letter will be
read and talked about in many thousand bar
rooms and on countless pavements in the twi-
light, by citizens with open collars and tilted
chairs, and hearts devoted to the public good.
"Kemper's position" is thus made matter of
public interest and as long as Kemper walls it
in mystery he is sure of wide and gratifying
nOtOriety.
He is, of course, opposed to third term on
principle but in view of certain contingen-
cies. if Gen. Grant would come out strong
against the Civil Rights bill and then some
how get nominated against some miscreant
who is in favor of it, and then If the Con-
servative party, as q whole, should go for
Grant, then Kemper would also go for him,
"but with protest on his lips against the
third term principle This is no new posi-
ton for Kemper He said some time ago to
his friend Mosby, and was so greatly pleased
with the saying that he prints it anew, at
"were better to elect Grant the third and the
seventh term than go under Hughes and his
negroes This is the only point of Mr..
Kemper's manifesto. His friend Col. Mosby
may be presumed to have brought from
the White House the assurance "tbat
" Grant is no more niger than you
cor me-" Indeed, the impression was
general among the Conservatives in Washing
ton that the President would have vetoed the
Civil Rights bill if it had been passed by
Congress. Acting upon this suppOsition, the
Governor declares that though he does not
believe in third terms as a regular thing and
does not like the Presidents financial action.

ASHAMED OF THEIR OBN UORK

Since the exposure of the real meaning of
the recent additions made and attempted to
be made to the power of the courts in the
District of Columbia, several Members of
Congress have shown the greatest eagerness
to disavow all connection with measures
which the good sense of the country pointedly
condemns. Mr.. Carpenter has made an elab-
crate explanation of what he wanted to ac-
complsh by his bill, and has declared that
it could not apply to libel suits, and that
nothing was further from his thought than
to give it any such bearing; but
he has singularly forgotten to mention that
Messrs. Bayard and Wadleigh pointed out in
the course of the debate just how it would
work, and asked for an amendment, to which
the Senate would not agree. So, too Judge
Poland protests of his bill that it has nothing
to do with libels and newspapers, and he can
not imagine how anybody should be wicked
enough to twist it to purposes of persecution.
Bless his innocent heart there is no guile
under his brass buttons The Judiciary amend
ment just shaped itself. Congressman voted
themselves the power to harry their critics
purely by accident and ignorance. They are
all surprised at the result, and somewhat in
credulous. They all exclaim, at was not I.n
The fact that sundry of them had been threaten
ing a Law OF this kind all Winter is merely CO.
incidence The fact that prosecution under
the new act for libel committed in Michigan
has already been instituted at Washington is
another coincidence. The whole thing appa-
rently has come about without human agency,
and no doubt some of our Purest and Best
regard 1t as a judgment of heaven upon O
scurrilous and abusive press.
We are not surprised that it should be 90

REAPPOINTMENT or TIE POLICE COM
MTSSTONERS,

The Mayor has fulfilled the eager prophecies
of his enemies, and reapponted tthe convicted
Police Commissioners. The act Is accompanied
by a petty trick quite worthy of it, To obviate
ony question as to the right to reappolnt
men convicted of misdemeanOr In oihce, ne
does not apDoint Mr. Gardner to fill the
vacancy caused by the resignation of Mr..
Gardner, (as he puts it, or by
the removal of Mr.. Gardner as the
Governor puts it), bat appoints Mr. Gardner
to fill the vacancy caused by the resignation
of Mr.. Charlick. With equal consideration he
appoints Mr.. Charlck to fill the vacancy
caused by the resignation of Mr. Gardner.
The whole thing is good illustration OF
the old bad political school. THESE two men,
the most resOute and capable men on the Police
Board, were specially selected because of their
partisan positions To the places which should
he absolutely free from the remotest taint OF
nartisan bias. the Administration people in
sisted on forcing the head of their General
Committee, and the Democrats Sachem OF
Tammany. With the Police Board thus given
over to the control of two active, energetic
and able partisan managers, elections were
of course managed.' That the managers
should be convicted and put out of Office is
the only surprising thing in the whole matter
1t is not in the least surprising that the man
who originally appointed them should now by
a paltry trick put them back in the places
from which they had been expelled.
But tho community should be reasonable
about the matter. Messrs. Gardner and Char
lick have done nothing which was not ex-
pected of them; nothing for which they
were not appointed nothing which every
body did not know they were sure
to do when they were sworn into
office; nothing which every successive
Police Commissioners will not do until we can
fcforp altogether public sentiment on the
whole subject When the community demands
a bipartisan Police Board, we shall, after
some time, when obstructive Mayors are
out of the way. succeed in getting it.
Till then we shall be more fortunate than we
deserve if we have Commissioners whose
violations of the Election law can be as le-
niently described as were those of Messrs. Gard
ner and Charlick in Judge Brady's sentence /:
"The circumstances disclosed in this case, in
"my judgment, do not justify me in inficting
"any more than a fine because it was not
"insisted on the part of the prosecution that
ain this particular case there was any proof
"of wicked or willful intent to do wrong.n

4 FAILURE and An OPPORTUNITY.

The Democrats of New Hampshire and Con-
nectcut do not seem to understand that they
are the subjects of an experiment by the
people; that they are only temporarily
intrusted with power with view of discover
ing whether, after all, they are wise enough
to accept its responsibilities and discharge its
duties. 1t is an experiment that has been
tried on a small scale repeatedly during the
past fifteen years, but always with unsatisfac-
tory results. The Republican party has several
times been reminded of its responsibility to
the people and recalled to q sense of
its duty and obligations by temporary
reverses and as many times the experiment
of trusting the opposing party with just q
little taste of power has been ventured on.
The result has been invariably the same.
Temporary reverses have sobered the party of
the Administration, and taught its leaders to
correct their errors. 1t can be said of it,
indeed, that no party in the history of the
country was ever so sensitive to public
opinion, none ever SO readily obeyed the
helm of popular sentiment, as did the
Republican party for the first twelve
years of its existence. Whether that
record can be continued is an open
question On the other hand, the effect of the
most tri6ing successes upon the Democratic
party, instead of steadying them with the sense
of responsibility, has been rather to set them
crazy with the desire for spoils and intoxi-
cate them with the plunder There has been
no exception to this rule. The unpreju-
diced observer of our politics cannot help
remarking that in the sense of being discreet
prudent clear-headed, the present dominant
party has invariably shown itself superior to
its opponent
The Democratic successes in ew-Hampshire
and Connecticut were not due to any revival
of confidence In the Democratic party, or to
any change in the political sentiments of the
people of those States. The most ardent
Democrat will hardly undertake to make any
such claim. The causes OF the political over
turn in those two States were so plain
that the weakest of wayfariDg men could

between Mr.. Simmer or Mr.. Wilberforce and
Gen. Grant, and the General were running on
the straight Conservative ticket, he would be
compelled to vote reluctantly, to use MS own
expression, for :" the third-termer."
The Governor has also been much gratlfled
at the public notice given to his visit to the
President while in Washington. lie seems 10
think there was high degree OF moral cour-
age involved in the act, and has no hesitation
in saying that the interview "was credltaoie
"both to himself and the President" Each
of them INDUCED in a style of conversation
which the Governor characterizes as SQUARE
"and manly,n and yet tho Governor III reler-
ring to the interview appears to think that f"
was rather infra dig. for him to call on tnc
President. and he shelters himself 6ehlnd the
Conservative Platform to excuse the equiFocai
act. The tone of his explanation Is that Oh u
prosperous grocer who tells you he had poet
to dinner with him yesterday, and ADDS airiy'
/ like to know all sorts"
The letter is of no consequence except as
showing the kind of Influences at work to ef-
feet .h3 reelection of the President. and the
utter absence in the minds of the second
grade of politicians Of any idea that there Is
such thing as principle involved IN nomlna-
tions to high office, or any relation between
the candidate and his antecedents. Here Is
the Governor of an important State, one Oh
the few which have not fallen entirely lnto
the hands of the rascals who have plundered
and robbed the South, elected solely to oppose
the tendencies of the dominant party, whose
leader and representative is the President.

hold his tongue on the Civil Rights bill, and
seek Democratic nomination for third

nominee But this consideration will proba-
bly, not stand materially in his way In the
work of manipulating the Republican nomina-
ton in the meanwhile, and as Mr.. kcmper
has only advertised rather than committed
himself, there is no harm done on either side.

A SHORT PIPE.

some extent had been found inimical to do
nestle happiness. Careful housewives say that
the smoke gets into the curtains. Prudent
