Don't strike fhe Innocent.

The Commercial has no heavy blow for
the guilty wretches of its party. But it
lets out food of invective upon "the
nation" In referring to Belknap's s
crime it says:
"The blow falls broad upon the nation.
1t is the nations punishment for the
offence of the whole people. All have
pressed forward in the race of oxtrava-
CANT living. luxurious manners and rec6-
less expenditure, careless how they were
secured. Homer has been sold, as in
tegrity was sacrificed, and now We are
summoned to look at the result. Ii the
providence of God has called us to a
simpler and truer life, there is a blessing
indeed in the instrument that deals this
wound
Now it happens that "the nation" had
nothing to do with the crimes of the
Radical party. "The nation" did not 20
to Long Branch" to "press forward in
the race of extravaganza" Grant and
his Radical admirers were there, and
endeavored to allure others. But the
people, especially the Democratic people,
had nothing to do with these crimes
they were not in the Whisky Ring and
they constitute (emitting the negroes,l
about two-thirds of the people, and helr

on until your mind has opened little
by reflection. Don't strike the limo

The revelation of Secretary Bclknap's
official corruption was brought about
through the action of one of those insig-
nificant committees on expenditures in
the various departments W hich it was the
custom of the former Congresses to ne.
glect entirely. These committees, which
have not come together for years, were
set to work in accordance with the plan
of operations marked out by Mesrs. Kerr
and Morrison, to test fairly and unosten.
tatiously the course of the Administra.
ton. Each one of them is composed of
five members, three Democrats and two
Republicans.

How Grant Helps and * rps up the
Swindlers.
LET NO GUILTY MAN ESCAPE

LET NO GUILTY MAN ESCAPE"
The Philadelphia Telegraph, n Repub-
lican paper opposed to Grants third
term projects, thus pins together Grant S
conduct in many cases where his ap-
pointees have committed scandalo ous Of
fences for which they had to be turned
out of Office TO silence the clamor of pub
lie opinion. Had any of the old Demo-
cratic Presidents done asGrant has done,
in a single instance of these many cases,
he would not have had q shadow of
chance for a second nomination much
less a third. In fact events prove that
Grant and the Radical Party have been
holding up premiums to scoundrels to
follow the course Of swindling that is
reflected on with just severely in this
cursory reference. We invite the at
tention of the Republican and the CONNER.
cial to this memoranda of the acts of
their champion statesmen.
Happily, in the country's entire histo-
ry, there has been no similar disgrace
openly brought upon himself and the ma
ton by any official of such eminence as
that brought upon himself and the ma
tion by William w. Belknap. We should
like to believe that it is the last, that his
crime is the coping stone of that vast ed .
lice OF political corruption which the
country has been building since the close
of the late civil war. But we dare NOT
hope 30. We know we have sown the
wind with liberal hand, and by all the
cruel and inexorable certainty that such
sowing gives, we know that we shall reap
Al@ ,-tw W.
cast, and we have gathered in the terri
ble harvest in political frauds of all
Kinds. We sowed the wind in nepotism
in rewarding politicians with the highest
Offices simply because they were politi.
clans, and we reaped the whirlwind in
Credit Mobilier, in Back Pay, and in
jayne and Sanborn swindles. We turn
ed Boss Shepperd out of the District
King to get rid of him, and our Chiei
Executive at once renominated him fol
the place from which he had been push

turned Richardson from the Treasury in
which he had soiled his fame for hon

The Every Evening and Republican find
a great deal to complain of in the Demo.
cratic House of Representatives. 1t is
composed of men of small calibre and
works entirely too slow for these papers.
1t may be moving little cautiously and
with some timidity; but it appears to be
working surely. The committees have a
heavy work on their hands and perhaps
they do not mean to half do their work
before it is submitted. Mr.. Randall s
reports in opposition to the Radical party
resulted in a saving TO the government
of about S12, ,O0O, 900 annually; and this
is only a beginning for his committee
Mr.. Clymer's report has not been very
slow nor has 1t lacked thoroughness
Hoar, of Massachusetts,, sought to de-
lay it and save Belknap from impeach-
ment; but they did not succeed.

Another characteristic of young men is
independence. They think for themselves,
in the main, more than childhood can,
more than manhood generally does. They
may, and often do, make mistakes but we
sometimes feel that it is better to fall into a
little error occasionally, when thinking for
O 1e's life, than to keep mechanically and
imitatively right. "As living dog is bet
ter than q dead lion," 30 he who has a root
in himself is likely to recover from his or
rors and fOllies.
An lndepend srt man is real man, and
real men are what is required in this world.
1t is easy for a man to lose bis soul in the
forms around him. To know any of these
as realities, we must begin by being real in
in our own will, conscience, and personal
energy. Then we may go on through eter-
nifty, gradually deeper and deeper, into
endless diversties of direction, aud into a
region of inexhaustible realities.
