When JOIN TYLER, Influenced by an i'm
sane ambition, betrayed the Wing party,
Mr.. CLAY and the leaders Of his day cut
loose from the traitor, refused to hold inter-
course with him, and turned him over TO tho
corporal's squad Ofmcrccnarics who madcu
the Presidents body guard in Congress and
the Custom Houses. When the Republicans
quarrcllcd with obstinate ANDREW JOHNSON,
they did not stop to count how many votes
would be lost or gained by the contest.
Right or wrong, they were bold, outspoken,
and rcsolutc They impcachod him; and,
though defeated in that extreme resort, they
rallied the party and swept the country at
the ensuing Presidential election.
These lessons are fun Of instruction to
timid and trimming politicians. who do not
know the virtue Of moral courage, and are
incapable OF estimating its effect ON the
popular mind. They may he supplemented

COSKLtNG took the Rochester Convention

MI BLAiNE might have prontcd by such
wcli-known facts. and put himself forward
prominently to autagunizc the Administra-
ton, with which he has no sympathy, and
which at the bottom of his heart he dctcsts
more than the EXTREMIST Bourbon Democrat
can do. He has lost an opportunity which
will not soon rccur, and instead Of strength
cning his hand as leader in Maine, has
weakened his hold materially. Thousands
of anti-llANEs Republicans among the rank
aLd Tile, who dunut sock or expect Office and
are Independent, will slough of, and prob
ably join the Nationals when they see the
party chiefs wanting in real manhood, and
afraid To put themselves on record against
the Fraud In the White House merely from
the dread that the machine ticket might
lose a few votes. On occasion, Mr.. BLAINE
can be aggrce -ivc. even beyond necessity;
in this instance he has not shown the cour-
age of his convictions and has fallen back
WHEN he should have moved firmly forward.

The HAYEs-SnERNfiS-EvA Administra-
tion have done many shameful things.
But perhaps the mcanc-t n well a. the
most tyrannical act they ever performed
was their effort last summer 10 drive Mr.
CuRNELL out Of the Naval ONCE unless he
would resign the Craftsmanship OF the Re
publican state Committee.
Mr.. CORNrLL was placed at the head Of
the committee under peculiar crcum-
stances. At the Saratoga Convention OF
1876 he was a candidate for Governor, but
withdrew in favor Of Mr. MORGAN before n
vote was taken. He was then made Chair
man of the State Committee. and tool, charge
Of the Republican campaign; and through
out the contest he laborod most diligently
to elect Mr. MORGAN. and to secure the
thirty-ilvc votes oi New York for KrrHER-
TuRD b. HAYES.
Notwithstanding these services IN the
Presidential contest scarcely had HAYES
got we'll fixed in the White House. and

fully alleged for this ruid ON CORNELL was
that he was a friend Of Senator CoNKLGNG.
Not dccming this n sufficient cause for
Abandoning two trusts. neither Of which

last to both.
final dcspairing effort was made TO pro-
vent CoRNELL's ai'iXing his name TO the
usual notice suinmOning last years State
Convention. and attending in person and
calling the Convention to order HAYES and

and could not be allowed. But in spite
Of their opportunities and threats, lie
signed the call and attended the ConVon-

Well. the Fraudulent Administration has
done its worst on CORSELI. We do not
