Mrs. TiItOn's Confession.

If Mrs. Tilton Is to be condemned,
abhorred and pierced with every edi-
torial quill in the land for having
again injected her disgusting story
into the minds of our people, and pol
luting the currents Of society, which
were getting md or some OF the ar
pearances, if not the effects OF the
Brooklyn scandal, what shall be said
of some of us who with fulsome ex-
pressions of disgust at the revival OF
the unseemly subject, run with great
haste to pick up such disgusting de-
tails, and give them the most promin-
ent place in our columns?
Let us be consistent brethren; either
it is wise to publish them, or it is not.
If it is desirable that they be sup
pressed and not discussed, will that
lie likely to be accomplished by pub,
fishing and discussing them ourselves
and advising others not to read or say
anything about them?

casually to his host that the fleet was
on its way, under secret orders, to
take possession of Perrin, the island
rock which commands the entrance to

success to the GRAND, but secretly sent
away a dispatch boat, and when the
French reached Perrin, in the morning
they found the Union Jack flying over

A Word to Clergymen.

Friend, stop that cough! Do not
neglect a Common Cold even for a
day. 1t may end in Consumption
and death. Rev. N. II. DowNs'
ELMER has cured thousands, both old
and young; and it will cure you, if
taken freely and in season. This
Elixer has been before the American
people FoRTY-sIx YEARS, and has new
er failed to give relief to all who have
used it. 1t has won its way by Ac-
TUAL SERVICE, until it has become a
household friend in thousands OF our
best families. Regular physicians use
and Recommend it. Clcrgymen and
public speakers are it's best patrons.
Railroad employees, much exposed TO
colds, coughs, etc, should always use
it. Farmers, Lawyers, Merchants
and everybody, old and young, speak
highly in It's praise.

Secretary Sherman's letter to his
Republican, friends Of Ohio goes direct
ly to the point. He recognizes that
the political duty Of the times is to
carry in Republican House of repre-
sentatives, and he rightly urges that
all subordinate considerations should
give way to this, The statements he
makes bearing upon this primary OBJ
legation are worthy of most careful
attention. "This is Republican Adj
ministration' what other man has a
better right to pronounce such an
opinion? Has Mr.. Howe, or Mr..
Conkling, Or any other Senator who
has mainly been spending his
time in grumbling while the Secretary
has been accomplishing more for the
interests of the country than either
branch of Congress? Nor is his own
standard Of Republicanism to be ques-
toned. John Sherman, from The time
he was defeated for the Speakership
because he had Endorsed an abolition
book, down to the present moment, has
always marched in the Republican adj
vanced lines. What he says, there
fore, of the general attitude of the Adj
ministration may be relied upon. His
observations, also, with regard to the
distribution of Offices and the connec-
ton of officers with elections, should
be taken in the fair discriminating
spirit in which they are made.
Whether the President las acted upon
these matters wisely or unwisely, or,
what is more probable, has been judic-
ious with regard to some of them and
lndiscreet to the others, the whole sub
ject is of minor consequence at this
time to the Republican masses. 1t is
all-importsut that the financial policy
policy Of the Administration should
be energetically upheld. The bring
ing out of the nation on the safe
ground of resumption next January,
with the illimitable field of prosperity
spreading before it, all depends upon
the popular support which the Admin
istration receives this sum mer. The
best Of announcements in this respect,
as well as in all other respects, will, of
course, manifest itself in the will, the
great lines of Republican duty centre
upon that point; and We trust that the
Secretary Sherman's letter will serve
as valuable reminder everywhere
else, as well as in Ohio.

TrAnlps.

Whether we are, or not treating
this class with 100 cowardly and
time serving policy is question which
begins to occupy the minds of honest
conservators Of the public's safety,
who live by such honest labor as the
world is amply supplied with. When
applied to for charity, it is natural to
respond if attended with appearance
of hunger, or suffering Of any kind.
1t is difficult for one TO turn hungry
man from his door, even il he be a
criminal. But while all call in the
name Of honest and unavoidable want
a community may entertain so many
devils unawares, that by fattening
public enemy, it may rise up against
it. The occupation Of tramp, how
ever disguised, has become life en-
ployment. 1t already ranks among
the trades and professions, and by
feeding those who follow it, we by
so much, feed Incidence end vice
which always grow and thrive at the
expense of their opposites.
or course 1t lie easier to dispose Of
each individual case by feeding and
sheltering the applicant which is, per-
haps, too often done through fear of
his revenge if refused or that he may
be really and honestly in want. But
has it ever occurred to our readers
how wonderfully loafers and sloths
thrive under this disguise, and how
alarmingly they multiply? Or how,
from a slight danger to one household
it may prove to be danger TO which
society in general will be exposed?
But some constitutional lawyer
tells us that the trouble is in dealing
with them until they have committed
some crime. If that is 80, then the
foundations of society ought to be
taken mp and relald. We mean, if
idleness, loungirg about. singly, in
pairs. or in groups, invading peaceful
homes,-~with rough outlandish dress,
and frightful manners and demanding
with threatening mien the best the
house affords OF the tender wife, while
the strong man is away, honestly toll
Ing for the security he has right to
expect, are not crimes, and cannot be
so declared by law, then we say So
ciety ought to be reconstructed and
permitted to begin, de noUo.
z The right to preserve the peace
and security of society is one Of its
most vital and most ancently recog-
nized elements. 1t has right to de-
iuand that eacl, man shall contribute
a reasonable care, industry and ex-
ample. That each should earn his
living by the "sweat of his brow" is a
decree elder than Blackstone or Kent.
And If society has right to enforce
that, it has right TO suppress a life
of vile idleness and vagrancy. If So
ciety has a right to demand industry
of its Individual members, it has q
right to enforce it. Law is founded
in common consent we are told, and
if SO, the sooner law is enacted,
either to drive the votaries of willing
idleness to work by punishment, or
10 provide workshops or ''poor farms
and compel them to work. We be-
lieye these are getting to be the COM
mon sentiments of the people OF this
state, which they will ask the coming
session Of our legislature to take into
consideration. We shall insist, until
otherwise convinced, that a communal
ty is under no obligation to encourage
u vicious element to its own detriment
or destruction.
