There is Little Use in lying,
FOR SENATOR,

HENRY G. CONRAD, Esq, who is seek
ing practice at the law in this city,
said before a crowd of negroes and
whites that Samuel j. Tilden stands
convicted perjurer.'
LEVI Z. BIRD, Esq, who has learned
more wisdom at the bar and by expert
ence, no doubt, found there was little
gained by falsehood; before crowd of
negroes and whites, declared he believed
Samuel j. Tilden ''was an honest man,
There is no calling that gentleman
can enter,i in which character for adherinp
closely to truth is more valuable than in
the law. When the community find that
a lawyer will not lie; that he will speak
the truth even when it is not to his ad-
vantage, such man is not likely to be
mistrusted; his opinion is valuable and
will command respect.
We do not think Mr.. Conrad was
aware of the enormity of the oflensc he
was committing; but then he is a MEN,
Der of the bar; he should know what the
words convicted periurer," means. and
ought not to have used them. lie has
damaged his party by the use Of this false
declaration, just as he may damage tho
cause of cliant by an lrnguarded utter
ance that is wholly false, and that ever,
intelligent reader knows is false. Non,
bllt ignorant negroes are deluded by such
utterances, and it is not to the credit @
any christian man to deceive these boo
creatures. 1t may be said that this re
mark was applauded. So it may hay,
been; but SO was the remark of Mr.. Cox
RAD, to which every respectable whit,
mechanic in the city fatly objects. TIL
ignorant and prejudiced lauded it be
cause they thought it smart. And SO Nh
conrad went out of his meeting happ
with his effort little imagining that hi
remark was blow at many of our bes
cltlzens who are quite as competent t
make laws as other citizens, altboug
they may have been ''stair builders, q
car builders, or house builders. or sbi,
builders, or stove makers, or car whe,
moulders, or spoke makers, or morocco

The shoemaker of Natick' ought

In what is Mr.. Forney better than the
highwayman? He wants our money, and
that is all the highwayman wants. For
ney threatens to use our soldiers unlees
we allow him and his party to take mo-
ney out of our pockets indirectly, and the
accomplished bandit does the same. There
is money in our votes-while the soldiers
| aim at the people of the South, Forney
exclaims give us your votes, you rebels
The highwayman, with his pistol at your
head, exclaims with an oath, give me your
money, you scoundrel! Until some resis-
| tance is made both these characters bear
the demeanor of polite gentlemen. But
they are very similar. All will remember
the stories told of Hare, the great robber-
how generous he was to the poor. But
such as Forney, as Mrs. st. Clair For
rest well knows, do not gather from the
rich only-they seek to get their support
from the poor through unseen processes
but the effect is the same. Forney's party
assess millions upon the poor whites to
spend on negro education; but as Mayor
Whiteley said last night. only a few thou
sand of these vast collections are spent for
education-it is found in the pockets of
the carpet-baggers and scalawags; and tire
poor have to suffer and toll on in igno-
ranc, and after all Forney still calls them
rebels. Out upon such speakers. They
do not deserve to be listened to. They
scout Reform, and we'll they may since
the people have discovered their detesta-

this morning announces the organi-
cation of n Republican Reform
club, the result of the meeting "A,
Delmonico's, about six weeks ago.
The club is antsgonistic TO the Tn.
ion League Club, but is formed in
the interest Of reform. Its platform
favors the resumption of specie pay
ments and civil service retrench-
ment. The President OF the Club is
the Honorable James Elliott.
Among the promotes are Jackson
Schultz, Hon. VIM. +. Dodge and
many other prominent citizens. The
mem bership is between three and
four hundred. The Times says, edi-
toriaily, that the Club is not in the
interest of any party movement. Ii
says it will work inside the Re-
publican organization and bring TO
bear on Cincinnati the higher Re-

People who have any concern at
all for royalty across tue water will
be pleased to know that the Prince
Of Wales has passed through the
Eastern jungles unscathei and now
reposes in the select company of
his suite at Lisbon. Tbs Prince
did some noble things for his realm
while in India. among which was,
the killing of q royal Bengal with
his own hands. The English peo-
pie must feel proud of this. 1t was
q wonderful thing for q Prince OF
the blood to do. There iss striking
difference between Wales and Dom
Pedro. One goes on . junketing
expedition for fun. at heavy govern
ment expense. while the other dis
robes himself OF all imperial char
acteristics and travels for the benefit
Of his people only. Dom Pedro is
o democrat. while the Prince is the
personitication Of European aris-
tocracy.
