NR. DdVID 4. WELLS.

w. II. Barnum, when he laid in his stock
of mules last Spring. did not mean to pur-
chase Mr.. David 4. Wells, and Mr.. Wells, we
venture to saw was quite unconscious that
he was part of the purchase. But Mr.. Bar
num bourht Democratic party, and Mr.. Wells,
somewhat to his own disgust, no doubt, finds
himself part of that party. Beng 'aileu
upon To help men who buy votes IN Con
necticut ard cast fraudulent votes IN New
York, he comes. Known As defender OF the
nubIfc faith he comes to help those whose
platforn is reputation. Knowing. as his best
financial friends in this and other cities have
declared. that Democratic success would be
most dangerous to commercial prosperity
and the public credit, yet Mr.. Wells, who
has "A reputation rs student OF the
methods by which commercial prosperity and
public credit may be promoted, comes To help
democratic success II was said that negroes
had no rights which white men were bound to
respect. Apparently Mr.. Wells has no con
victions which Democratic managers are bound
to respect. They may threaten the public
faith. and Mr.. Wells will help they may de-
mond rcpudiation, and Mr.. Wells will help !;
nav. they may sell at public auction a seat IN
the United States Senate for his own state
and still Mr.. Wells will help the party. APP
parently he belongs to that party in the
strictcst SENSE and though he knew 1t not,
was part of the concern bought up by Mr.
Barnum when he was III the mule business
last Spring.
1t is a little difficult to speak seriously of a
man in Mr. Weiss position. Eating ones
words is not particularly impressive ana
dignified feat. When Mr. Wells wrote last
Spring, manfully advocating resumption, pitt
lrssly ridculng Hendricks and his soft-money
followers, and Indignantly dcnOunclng the ms
cradle cheats devised by Democrats IN caucus
ne did not suppose that he would 50 soon he
compelled to devour Robinson Crusoe and his
island. and no end of spicy letters besides. But
here is the distinguished gentleman duly adj
vcrtised to opprar before the NcwIork pub
lie in the great and unparalleled feat OF
throwing himself outside of himself lie will
procecd in public to eat not only his own words,
but his convictions and his reputation We are
really sorry that so good reputation should
he dcyourcd, but how can men trust Mr.. wells
hereafter as "A champion of honest money and
nub G faith He is sincere, no doubt, but
captain who sincerely and blunderlngy leads
his followers over into the camp OF the enemy
i, not apt to have many followers thereafter.
II he fancics that he, IA man OF some regard
for public faith, can purge and purify the
Democratic party, we beg him to remember
that. though little leaven may leayen the
whole lump, 1t is important that the lump
should not be too large, and quite neces-
sary that it should be dough. Apparently Mr..
Wells imagines that ne can make good bread
by putting his yeast into mud-hoe. Mud
il not dough- and the Democratic party is
material out of which it is not possible to
raise anything but initiation and reputation.

In the interest of that fair dealing toward
the South which TIE TRIBUNE has always
stliven to maintain, we present this morning
letter telegraphed by Wade Hampton in reply
TO the recent letter of Gov. Chamberlain.
Gen. HamptOns letter is entitled to all the
credit due to high-minded gentleman who
would not consciously miSlepreSent the facts,
but it must be remembered that he Is also
a partisan far more vehement than Gov. Cham
berlain, and is arguing in his own behalf He
denies most emphatically almost every state
ment made by Gov. Chamberlain, and declares
that the only object of his canvass is to secure
peace and honest government. He denies the
existence of domestic violence, and yet insists
that there have been great disturbances on the
part of negroes. He denies that IT was i'm
practicable to convene the Legislature and
asserts that during his shotgun canvass" he
has not seen ga single gun or Sabcr III
" the possession" of the rifle clubs, while
the colored militia attend public meet
ings with loaded rifles. He shifts the
blame of the Ellcnton riot upon the blacks
and attempts an explanation OF the course OF
the Democrats toward Gov. Chamberlain that
will satisfy no one. Gov. Chamberlain came
too near the nomination which Wade Hampton
himself received to make any depreciation OF
him at all consistent. The notion seriously
advanced that the Legislature might have
been convened, while bloody riot was in
progress and more perhaps were impending,
will have as little weight. Nevertheless we
gladly give gallant man fair hearing.

the Republicans have been busy with the can
vass of the State, an outline OF which we
present in another column. This estimate Is
made on the last vote for Controller, on which
Mr.. Robnson's plurality was $1,000, ana
clearly indicates, after making every allowance
for the Democrats, Republican gain of more
than 10000 over last year, which would insure
the State by nearly 10000 majority. The mar
Gin is not as wide as 1T might be, but there Is
every reason to believe that it will grow
wider and not narrower The Republican tide
is rising every day.

of the Missouri war scrip, in Mr.. Evartss

A cruel sea captain comes to his own after
slipping twice through the meshes of the law.
The charges made against this Capt. Grindle
would seem almost too horrible to be true if
1t were not for the fact that the first jury by
which he was tried, though it could not
legally convict him, took public occasion to
express its opinion of him, and that the last
Jury were almost unanimous for conviction
from the start. Capt. Grindle ought to be put
where he can do the least harm, and that is
not on the deck of an honest ship

To-day and tomorrow are the final days of
registration in the cities and villages of this
State outside of New-York and Brooklyn.
There should be not only an earnest and sys-
tcmatic effort to secure full registration, but
the Republicans of the interior should take
care that it is an honest one. A letter from
staff correspondent, printed elsewhere, en-
bodies report which has already come to us
from wcl-informed Republicans i'll other sec
tons, that the frauds which seem now to have
been made impossible in Ncw-YOrk, were to
be rcattempted on wider field throughout
the State. If the registration is keenly watched,
the new Democratic plan of committing frauds
that,Reform may come, will be fooled for the
second time, and fair and full election be
assured. There can he no more important work
for the final hours of the campaign than this.
See to it that it is well done

One of the best features of the Philadelphia
Exhibition is to be saved to us after all. The
Commission has determined to return TO the
original scheme of awards, which was, in brief,
the distribution of discriminating reports, and
not the indiscriminate flinging about of
bronze medals. The committee that was at
work. rewriting, altering, cutting, and enarg-
ing the careful criticisms of the best special
lists of Europe and America, now find their oc-
cupatiOn gone. except in an occasional strug-
gle with some European English. The wisdom
of the Commission in retracing its msstep is
greatly to be commended. The Worlds Fairs
of the future will gain by it,
