Let NO Guilty Man Escape.

The New York Herald cannot be
accused ofpartiality to President Grant.
But it is candid enough to say in re-
gard to him, in the light of of the re-
cent whisky developments at Washing
ton: :
The history of the celebrated phrase,
"Let no guilty man escape" as told by
Bluford Wilson under the pressure of
cross-examination is very much to the
credit Of the President. 1t shows that
he meant General Babcock. 1t shows
that he challenged investigation into
those who were nearest to him. Some
how, whenever the record of the Presi-
dent, SO far as personal honesty is con-
cerned, goes into the crucible Of inves-
tigation, the result makes us more
and more proud Of the hero of Appo-
mattox, of the man who, whatever his
faults, will live in our history as one of
its most illustrious figures.
No one who has followed the testi-
mony with any degree of care can dis
sent from this view of the case. The
Barnard letter, which called out
the order ''Let no guilty man escape, +"
mentioned General Babeock. 1t did
not convey the idea that he was neces-
sarily guilty, but simply that his name
was associated with the ring in St.
Louis, not whether to better shield
themselves, or because he was in con-
federation with them, was uncertain.
In the light Of subsequent develop

A Novel Passenger Car.

A project is on foot at the Ranlet car
shops which, if successfully carried out,
promises to revolutionize every style of
passenger cars now in use in the United
States. 1t consists of car the sides Of
which are built in an angular form. the
seat being located directly between the
two windows, and commanding, on a
slight curve, a view of theengine ahead
and all the surrounding scenery. Other
advantages to be gained from this style
of car are better ventilation than in any
other and means for avoiding the in
gress Of troublesome and disagreeable
cinders With the front window down
and the blind open, a good view of the
works of God and man may be had,
while with the back window raised and
the blind closed good breeze is con-
stantly flowing through, and the blind
keeps cinders from flying into the eyes
Of the passengers. Those who are well
experienced in the manufacture Of pas
senger cars have no hesitancy In declar-
ing this the greatest thing on record.

An interesting centennial event was
celebrated at Clover Lea, Va, last
week, it being the golden wedding of
probably the two nearest living relatives
of General Washington and Mrs. Mar
tina Curtis Washington. Colonel George
Washington Bassett is granddaughter
of Mrs. Washington, and his wife of
fifty years is grand-niece of General
Washington. The occasion drew to-
gether many friends, and the. presents
were numerous and handsome, one of
them being a purse with 800 ssTilden
centennial gold," whatever that may
be. Concerning this venerable and
high-born couple, the Richmond En-
quirer gives us the following informa-
ton: " Colonel Bassett is rs years OF
age, and Lady Bassett is 70, and both
are remarkably well preserved, and love
each other with the same devotion that
prompted them to unite their lives fifty
years ago. This statement would ap-
year indicate if they had been married
fifteen or twenty years, but whenpeople
have been together for fifty years, il
seems that you can say what you please
about them The Children Of Colonel
Bassett are scattered about the country
as follows: Two in Texas, ,one in South
Carolina, one in Illinois, one in West
Virginia, one in New Jersey and one
in Virginia. Il hsf sogs

Governor Tilden Steals q Sharp Idea from
Artemus Ward.

To the Editor of the Boston Globe:
S1R-Governor Tilden's letter of ac-
ceptance says:
What you want to do now is to cut
down your expenses and live within
your income. 1 would give all the leg
erdemain of finance and financiering,
would give the whole of it, for the
old homely maxim: "Live within your
income,
And further on:
If, however, the improvidence and
waste which have conducted us to a
period of fallen revenues oblige us to
supplement the results of economies and
retrenchments by some resort to loans
we should not hesitate.
1t struck us, when we first read this,
that we had read something of the same
sort before. 1t was Artemus Ward
who said, "Live within your means il
you have to borrow from your friends
to do it.'' Let the Democrats beware.
A man who VIII plagiarize a financial
idea and put it of for his own, will rob
the Treasury if he gets chance.

Nothing is more easy than to grow
rich. 1t Is to trust nobody-to befriend
none-to get everything, and save all
you get-to stint ourselves and every
body belonging to us-to be the friend
of no man, and have no man for our
friend-to heap interest upon interest,
cent upon cent-to be mean, miserable
and despised for some twenty or thirty
years-and riches will come as sure as
disease and disappointment. And when
pretty nearly enough wealth is collected
by disregard of all the charities of
the human heart, and at the expense of
every enjoyment, save that of wallowing
in filthy meanness-death comes to finish
the work-the body is buried in hole,
the heirs dance over it, and the spirit
goes-where? New York Commercial

The SixIh ward Contest.

EXTRAORDINARY EFFORTS FOR MR. McMEEANrIN
MONTY FLOWING LIKE wATER-How CAN
IT PAY?
Extraordinary efforts, Democrats say, have
been made, and are now in progress, to
elect McMenamin, in the Sixth Ward. So
many voters have been taken there and
eolonized that some of the Wards are strip
ped. Money is being plentifully used, the
eum being stated to a COMMERCIAL, this
morning, by a emCcrat, (but opposed to
McMenamln.) at So 600. This not only sup
plies "Sal" " Heritsge's rum-mill, but makes
cash plenty in all quarters. The amount,
we think, cannot be so great as 49, 000 but
undoubtedly a considerable sum is being
expended.
So great are exertions in McMenamin's
behalf that people begun to wonder how
they can be made to "pSy." A Councilman
gets dollar for each meeting he attends,
and unless he makes ''jCb" of his place,
that is all the profit there is in it. But if
money is poured out 20 freely there must
something else available for profit. Is it
contracts for culbing, paving, grading
quarrying stone, sewers, &c.,s &c, that
make the place so fat ;?
Itshould be remembered that Hepubli-
can vote in any ward of the city is a vote
against the McMenamin and Martin Farrell
ticket. The contest is not merely in the Sixth

MARTIN FARRELL TRIUMPHANT IN THE NINTH
wARD--NoMINATIoNs IN oTHER WARDS,
ETC.
The attempt to turn down Martin Farrell
failed, last evening. A meeting o fDemo-
Gratis of the Ward was held at the Old Acad-
emy, and the committee that had been ap-
pointed "to analyze the vote at the nomi-
naticn reported that twenty-six Illegal votes
we're cast thereat for Farrell, which being
deducted from his vote vote left
Barnhill a majority of five. Far
rell, however, was on hand, supported by
Councilman Ford, the Clerk OF Council
Lee, and others, prepared to prove that fif-
teen out of the twenty-eix had the right to
vote. This left him ahead, and the meeting
seeing that Farrell could not be thrown
over, adjourned sine die.
Martin Farrell says last evening termi-
mated favorably to him, but the Secretary
reports that resolution was passed de-
claring Bainhill the Democratic candidate

JOHN DAVIS NATURAL'z TIoN PAPERs-THE
FACTS IN THE CASE.
The following, clipped from the Herald
of this morning, though in the main correct,
is calculated to create quite different i'd
from the truth:
"Mr. Davis, the Republican candidate fer
Council in the Ninth Ward, was naturalized
yesterday. He has been voting in this Ward
for years"
The facts are that Mr.. Daviss father was
a naturalzed citizen, and Mr.. Davis, being
boy when his father was naturalized, had
the right to vote thereby, using his fathers
certificate at the polls to prove his righ's
But the certificate being old and having
once fallen into tub of water and becon 6
somewhat illegible, he thought it wol b
while to take out papers for himself, and &c
prevent any controversy over the old docu'
| ment.
Our reporter obtained the facts from a
friend of Mr.. Davis, and calling upon 8. r

forth were fully verified by him, and that i
