WHAT did the President mean when, In
his letter accepting the nomination, he said
that the officer should be secure in his
tenure as long as his personal character re-
"mained uutarnished and the performance
"of his duties satisfactory" Was that a
Pickwickian expression, or was IL the earn
est of an honest and sincere purposcr II
the former then 1t Is easy TO account for the
changes he has made in important public
trusts but If the latter, how can he justify
the removal of men from positions whose
personal characters remain untarnished and
against the discharge of whose duties in q
satisfactory manner no reasonable question
has been raised? Answer us that.

THE New York Commercial 1drertiser has
had its political diyining-rod at work, and
now comedies with THE NATIONAL REPuD-

perverse regard for his political enemies. 1t
remarks in this connection as follows:
One Of the striking features Of the present
Administration Is Its fondness for Liberal Re-
publicans, Democrats, aud eH-rebeis. Eighty
per cent Of the men appointed 10 office since
President HAYES took possession Of the White
House have been voting the Democratic ticket

b. JOHNSON BARBOUR is a specimen in
dependent candidate for Congress in the
Southern States. He Is running in the
eighth Virginia district, and Is being
boosted along by the influence Of the Ad-
ministration in its devious desire to break up
the Democracy by means Of Cancellation.
This conciliation policy, it should be under

Democrats with Executive patronage and
second, failing to purchase, to take up some
such man as Mr.. BARBOUR as an independ-
ent. BARBOUR was elected to Congress in
1865, but was refused admittauce with
other Southern Representatives on accoun,
of his disloyal record. The wheels of time
have wrought a wonderful change since
then. Verify, Cancellation, unlike honesty

IT is too much the habit in this country
and especially among Northern Republicans
to devote exclusive attention to the details
and personal interests of political affairs of
u strictly local character. Thus the New

to the exclusion of the consideration of
more important subjects. 1t is true those
removals are of great Importance AZ ndica-

Remarkable Success,


The success of the leading literary
Paper of the West, the Chicago
Ledger, is truly remarkable. Since
its introduction to the reading public,
six Yeas ago, the Ledger has steadily
advanced in favor, and is now ac-
knowledgcd second to nc paper Of the
kind in the country. Its circulation
is national, and has been obtained
through the efforts of its publishers
10 produce a paper Of high moral
character, and at the same time sell it
at a price consistent with the presen.
hard times. That they have succeed
ed, and well, too, the thousands Of
readers Of the Ledger scattered from
Maine to Texas and from Oregon to
Florida will bear testimony. The
Chicago Ledger IS a large forty-eight
.c,lumn weekly paper. which contains
stories both complete and continued.
in each number, written by tie best
authors of the day, and a great variety
of information interesting to every
one. The subscription price OF the
Ledger is only 81, so per year, postage
paid, and it is equal in every particu-
lar to other papers of tie same char
acter which sell for 50 a year. Three
copies of this valuable paper will be
sent to any one who sends 10 cents
and their address to the Ledger, Chi
cago, Iii.
