ANOTHER PROCLAMATION.

The Citizens Committee announce them
selves as Democrats and Conservatives. and
they proclaim their ".fealtg 10 The Dentocratic-
Conservative fdith."
Then why not place at the head Of their
ticket the Democratic Conservative nominees
for State Treasurer and for Congress?
Perhaps, the placing Of tbs names Of Ellis,
Burke and Gibson at the head of their ticket
would mar ell negotiations with the Custom
| House Radicals, as well as with the Radical
| National r. B. magnates.
| But, proclaim the committee: 1--WE have
been charged with seeklng political alliances
opposed and inimical to the Democratic
Conservative party. We state this to be un-
equivocally untrue. Our oficinl publications.
ALONE disproue this allegation"
| This Ia singular way OF dsproving the
charge of privately negotiating with the
| Custom House Radicals. The only proof to
the contrary relied upon by the committee,
is that this fact is not recorded in their official
publications.
| Indeed, the private eonclave Of the Citizens
Committee with Jack Wharton, Jim Lewis
| ct id on'7se genus, cannot be proven by any
pronunciamento of the committee; therefore,
| the fact In not O fact. This is startling logic
| But have the committee forgotten "that
card," In which they admit the concave but
merely deny the inferences and the details
Enough of caviling. The committee did
negotiate with the Custom-House leaders.
| They did SO as leaders OF the Citizens Asso-
citation, and they met the Radical leaders as
such. The committee were not SO silly as to
interview merely private individuals Of Radi-
cal persuasion, but they attempted to place
| the lever exactly where the lever would ope-
| rate more efYecttlally. If The conctnue ends IN
| q combination, there will be an alliance be-
tween the Radical leaders of the Custom
House end the Democratic Conservative
leaders OF the Citizens AssociatIon-an alli-
litical2 The Citizens Committee say not, as
they have no pretension to head political
party.
This, however, Is q mere play Of words.
Gall them o political party, q political faction,
q political organization. or O. political asso-
citation: and the substance remains the same
| a political body dealing In poll Issuing
full fledged political tickets dealing in rep
| resentative and senatorial matters.
The upshot of the whole concern Is, that d
Citizens Conservative Association was
| formed expressly to exercise an influence In the
selection Of Democratic-Conser cand-
| dates inside Of Democratic Conservative
| ranks. and now, parleyng with our common
| enemies, and disputing our title to Conserrn-
iirc appellation, the leaders Of the Citizens
Committee seem disposed to wage war against
the Democratic Conservative party itself,
even to the manifest mperilling of our Legis-
lative and Congressional interests.
Let all Conservative Democrats beware;
they are being led into moro than question
able paths

The old proverb, "a guilty conscience needs
no accuser,' has met with an apt illustration
recently In two cases having no connection
whater with each other BY o singular coin
oidence, both In the Billings and Hayden mur-
der cases, the former for the murder OF his
wife and the latter for the murder Of his mis-
tress, the clues upon which the prosecutions
have been renewed were suggested in both
cases by the prisoners themselves. The Rev.
Mr.. Hayden volunteered the state
ment ON his first trial that he had
purchased all ounce Of arsenic In
MiddIetown and hidden 1t In his barn. This
led to the disinterment of Mary Stannard S
body and the discovery of poison in her
stomach. In his interview with the juror
Blood. who stood alone for conviction, Jesse
Billings asked him why the prosecution
hadn't dug up his wife's body and examined
her head for the remainder Of the lead In the
22o-grain bullet, and this suggestion was
acted upon, and the result Is that Billings has
been held without bail for re-trial.

That hoary headed hater Of the South,
Wendell Phillips, has been nominated for
Congress by the Nationals in Massachusetts,
and has accepted. He earnestly indorses
Butler Of course. Their views are alike upon
many questions. Both favored the Paris
Commune, and both hold Socialistic doc
trines. 1t Is not surprising, therefore, that
Phillips should advocate Buffers election and
allow the use Of his name to assist that move
ment. Beacon Hill is greatly astonished,
however. Phillips is the favorite orator of
the Boston aristocracy, and their Indignation
Is great to find him actively sustaining their
mortal enemy.

That fraternal contest between the brothers
Wood, in the Troy district Of New York, is
not to come off, after all. Mr.. William Arson
Wood, the Democratic candidate, has with
drawn, and Mr. Walter A. Wood. the Repub-
lican candidate, Is the only member of the
family now In the field. A great many pro-
phecies, to the effect that a member Of the
family would represent the district In any
event, are imperled by this action, and
voters who intended to stradde are much
disconnected by 1t. Their votes for "W. a
Wood" will no longer be cast for the winner,
in any event.

Jim Anderson writes on September 27,
1878, from indianapolis to q friend, "Ask --
IL he thinks he could work me into the Sen
tinet office, should [ desire to stay here; or
what would be better, on the New Orleans
DEMOCRAT?" Probably we would be better
authority on that question than Jims anony-
nous friend. We do not see why Jim should
pick us out as the victim of his wiles. We
have already worked about as much Of him
into our columns as we could stand We fear
Jim's last chance is gone-the epidemic Is
about over. Now, If he had spoken @ little

tung, we saw the dead actually heapcd

a man lying dead with the edge of u

something very dark, and on going near
learned it was the husks of millet mixed
with old cotton wadding. People are
now pulling down their houses for fuel,
for coal is too dear for them.

tastes like what it is--dust. Soft stone
is sold at from half to third of a cent

Hugh Latimer'S BOldneSs.

FROM his first entrance into the min
istry, Latimer was esteemed a pestilent
fcllOw-they called him a "seditiOus
fellow''-by unjust persons in author
ity; and to such men he was ever, in
deed, highly troublesome. At this
early period his preaching was so cf-
fective that it was even then said of
it, 4" None except the stiff-neckcd and
uncircumcised ever went away from it
without being affected with high dctcs-
tation of sin, and moved to all godli-
ness and virtue"
An instance is related of his early
plainness of speech which is interest
iEg as an illustration of his fearless in
dependence, and also because it attract
cd the attention of Cardinal WOlsey to
him, and directly led to his future adj
vancemcnt. He was preaching before
the University of Cambridge on a Ger
tain occasion, when the Bishop of Ely
came into the church, curious to hear
the young preacher. The Bishops ell
trance caused some stir, and Latimcr
paused till the prelate was seated and
the commotion had subsidized. When
he recommended he entirely changed
the subject of his sermon, and, instead
of pursuing his original theme, began
to draw an ideal picture of what
Bishop ought to be, the features of
which were strik;ngly unlike those of
his episcopal auditor, and the reverse
of tlattering to him. The Bishop in
dignantly complained TO Wolsey, who
sent for Latimer and inquired what he
had said. Latimcr frankly repeated
the substance of his sermon, whereup-
on other conversation followed, which
showed Wolsey very clearly the nature
of the man with whom he was speak
ing; and, instead of responding to the
Bishops accusation by silencing the
audacious preacher, he gave him a IL
cense to preach in any church in En-
gland, coupling it with the remark:
+" If the Bishop of Ely cannot abide
such doctrine as you have repeated,
you shall preach it to his beard, let him
say what he will. Charles D. Deshlcr,
IN Harper's Magazine for vunc.
