The phi1adelphia Press, ~in retracting some
criticisms made by its Harrisburg correspondent
upon Senator Scott, says: "Tho SIMPLEX fact Tint
Sonntor Scott has been an active and influential
advocate Of the cause OF the Centennial would
havo been sufficient to silence a1l genoral criti-
cism upon his public character and conduct IT wo
had not other reasons to approve his general
course as servant Of the people," IN other
words, Senator Scott might steal. plunaer, and
immerso himself up to the ears in corruption,
and this courBo would be approved, because llo
is an advocate Of the Centennial The high
moral tone which tho Press givos to tho Conten-
nial, and its efficacy as means Of abBo]utiout

ANOTHER TRAITOR ESCAPED.

Again hi. Hesing Ia brought to the verge Of

ho recommended his hunt for traitors with re-
nowcd enorgy, and at last succeeded In running
AID, Stout, Of tho Sixteenth Ward, to Ills holo.
Having accomplished this, ho summoned all l,ia
followers IN that ward surrounded the hole,
and scnt In doputatton to capture tue trattoroua
Stout, and bring him ont for Immediate slaughter
and burial In ono OF tho political grayos
which hia undertaken, Tom Foloy, dug tho

poraonal liberty, tint ho WAS IN honest and foar~
less American citizen, and that ho had not loBt
tho confidence Of the pooplo who elected him,
and tint ho did not voto for Dixon. Thomas
Foley took his spade undor his arm nnd his Ian
torn in his hand aud mournfully wonded his way

the thought TINT those WHO had thus decided
were not truo American citizcnH. Tho great Bis

Once more THE TRIBUNE extends it's sympathy to
Mr. Hoeing and proffors its aid. There arc othor

Tho first thing for AIr. Hesing to do, aA is party

Springfield at which lafgo number Of tho
patriotic ofllcoholdors in the State wero present
Tho meeting VAS atrikingly harmonious. and all
were agreed that inside tho Republican organi-
zation alone could political reform be efrcotcd.
Tho Grangers were traated moss graciouBly, and
wero assured that, owing to tho instinctivo and
inherent hatred Of tho Republican party to aris-
tocracies and monopoiics, it could alone bo
trusted to keep railroad corporations within
bounds, md to protect the agricultural interosts
Of tho State against them.
Several Of the eloquent patriots who addressed
the meeting placed their continued allegiance
to the Republican party upon itB "glorous
past" We freely confess to IT, There aro certain
physical, intellectual, and stomachio conditions
in Which We can imagine TINT mon might be
placed whero the "glorious past" argument
would provo very impressive. In condition Of

disturbed by cares, digestion unimpaired, business

tund, woll-fcd, and prosperous citizen would, III
his easy-chair, bo ploased to dreamily and favor
ably contemplate the "glorious past" OF tho
Republican party. This would be natural, and
We have no fault to find with it. hut no suggest
to our friends, the Springfield orators whother

publican party would not bo in order. Tho
question, soems to us, is not 30 much what the

Tho man who is afflicted with pair OF tight
boots, which oramp him into an agony Of per-
