is Spcmrc.

The Ner York Times, the ablcst Republic
can paper in the United States. in discuss
ing the work Of the POTTER Investigating
Committee speaks as follows:
"rhc only sufferers thu. far on the Republican side are
Mcssrs snrRv,N and MArunws neii,r oC nAon essential
~ Tie yanoe OF The isur'
This square concession by our esteemed
contemporary, that the hurt to Secretary
SHERMAN and to Senator MATTHEWS is NOR
tai, furnishes n happy illustration at once
of that journals sagacity aud of its frank
ness.
Let us consider for moment who Mcssrs
SHERMAN and MATTHEWS are, and what re-
lations they bear to Mr.. HAYES. Mr.. SHER-
MAN holds the place in the Cabinet which,
in the present condition Of affairs, is con-
sidercd by many the first Of all. He is from
Mr.. HAYES own State, and IS regarded
as having more confidential understandings
with the acting President than any other
member Of the Cabinet. STANLEY MAT
THEws is United States Senator from Mr.
HAYES state. and was VIGOROUSLY made
such through the active Interference Of MIR.
HAYES himself, and at the cost of sacrificing
his other particular friend Gen GARFIELD,
who had boon hopeful candidate for the
Office
Thus we see fatally wounded by the in
vcstigation the two chosen, foremost friends
Of Mr.. HAYES; and they hare sUgcred their
political death for acts done 10 max, him Hcs-
id.mt!
So much is accomplished. Thisbclongs to
the past The past, at least is secure.
Were the POTTER Committee to effect
nothing more, this achievement not only
iustiiles its appointment, not only saves
IL from ridicule and contcmpt-of which
there was at first 50 much allectatlOn
toward it-but crowns II with victory.
Considering the slippery footing ON which
Mr.. HAYES stands, if lie does not tumble
over with the fall OF men so closely linked to
him as Mr. MATTHEWS and Mr.. SHERMAN, it
will be u haiIbrcadth escape.
