We are in favor of iull and fair Investi.
gation of the official doings of every off,
Ger and department Of the Government.
We have repeatedly, in the columns OF
the STAR, urged and advocated such in
yestigations. The good OF the Common
wealth requires it. The public interests
demand it. 1t should be frequent, thor
ough and impartial.
But, while thus urging and advocating
such fair and candid Investigations, we
can not commend Investigations that are
plainly instigated by either personal or
political hatred, malice, and all un-
charitableness. From them we have all
been taught TO pray TO be delivered.
Such investigations are only evil and
that continually.
ofsuch nature was the prying, inquis-
ltive resolution presented in the House
by Representative Blackburn, calling

sther place, or places. than the seat Of
Government. There was no averment
that any such acts had been thus per-
formed; no intimation Of error or impro-

alton that any mischief to or neglect OF
the public service had accrued by 80
doing such acts. 1t was manifestiy q

Gov. COKE, of Texas, has just been
elected to the United States Senate from
that State. He was inaugurated as
Governor only two weeks ago. And in
his inaugural address he uttered senti-
ments OF patriotic wisdom well worthy
Of his high position, deprecating that
spirit of sectionalism that would imperil
''the glorious integrity of Texas" and
appealed to the Texans to act as Ameri-
can citizens who take pride in the whole
Union as their common country. We
would welcome such man to the United
States Senate, no matter which party
may send him; and are particularly
pleased that, with such views, he comes
from Texas.

accompanied by the portrait OF the lsay

A collateral result Of this note was
that Two or three oil the best phoLograPn-

their hands tnan they coald attend TO.
The direct result was sixty-fye letteis

expected variety, and desli ous TO gratlfy
| tnat sense OF hunor which even The
serious nature of his quest could not re-
press, the young man replied to each OF

Io final decision, personal-not eXactly

command steady, persistent adhe-

majority.
The gallant, the heroic Blaine, who
would have rallied a host wonderful
in numbers, numerous almost as if
they had come out Of the ground to
attend the election, was the first in
the field for Hayes, after the wires
had ceased to click the announce
ment of the nomination, and sent a
despatch of allegiance to the ticket
Here is the despatch. Read it 3:
WASHINGTON, June 10 To Governor
r. b. Hayes, Columbus, Ohio | offer you
nv sincerest congratulations on your nomi-
nation. 1t will be alike my highest plea
sure as well as my first political duty to do
the utmost in my power, TO promote your
election. The earliest moments of my re-
turning and confirmed health will be de-
voted to securing you as large a vote in
Maine as she would have given for myself.
J. G.. BLAINE"
Where the banner of Blaine floats
the Republicans will rally, and where
the name of Hayes is emblazoned
the people viii ballot for his election
successfully.
The convention adopted the follow
ing platform
When in the economy Of Providence
this land was to be purged of human
slavery, and when the strength of the
Government of the people, by the peo
pie, for the people was to be demon
strsted, the Republican party came
into power; its deeds have passed into
history, and We look back to them with
pride. incited by their memories and
high AIMS for tie good of our country
and mankind, and looking to the future
with unta!tering courage, hope and pur-
pose, we, the representatives OF the
party, in the National Convention as
sembIed, make the following declara-
tion of principles:
First The United States of America
is nation, not league. BY the COM
bined workings of the National and
State Governments under their respec-
tive constitutions the rights of every
citizen are secured at home and pro-
tected abroad, and the common welfare
promoted.
Second. The Republican party has
preserved those governments to the
huudredth anniversary Of the nations
birth, aud they now embodlmeuts of
the great truths spoken at its cradle,
that sll men are created equal, that
they are endowed by their Creator with
certain inaiieaable rights, among which
are life, liberty, and the pursuit of hap
piness; that for the attainment of these
ends governments have been instituted
asaoug men deriving their Just powers
fom the consent of the governed; IN
til those truths are cheerfully obeyed,
il needed TO vigorously enforce, tue
work of the Republican party is un-
finished.
Thrd. The permanent paeifcation of
the Southern section of the Union, the
complete protection of all its citizens in
the free enjoyment of all their rights,
are duties 10 which the Republican
party are saeredly pledged. ! he power
to provide for the enforcement of the
