POLITICAL LOGIC. ,

Mr.. Uraer said in his speech the other night
that his opponent, Mr. Peter, was a gentle
man beyond reproacb, but he was sorry to see
him in such bad company as Bannon and Cor
man." A man is judged by the company he
keeps; unless this old adage be changed to
harmonic with Mr.. Urner's strange reasoning
the trio must either be gentlemen beyond re-
proach or bad company. Whatever is in that
the speaker did not say, he knew, which is
very doubtful. Mr.. Urner has shown incon-
sstency in this remark He would either at
tempt to make the people believe that he is too
much of gentleman to speak derogatory of
his opponents character, or he would express
a sympathy for his opponents weakness in
falling in with bad company which is prob
ably disliked by some Of the same party thai
his opponent-Mr Peter--is of; thinking at
the same time 10 throw this hatred agains, Mr..
Peter Mr.. Urner has right that no one
doubts to weaken his opponent all that he
can, but his inconsistency is what is spoken Of
He takes associates-for the present it is
admitted they are associates-and makes vir-
tue of one and vice of the other; he shows
himself no gentleman one way or another,
either in traducing the character of his oppo-
nent without proof or an impostor on the
confidence of the people to make them dis
satisfied with their party leaders.
Next, is the trio above mentioned associates
Here is a question of veracity between Mr..
German and Mr.. Urner Mr.. German has
publicly said that Mr. Peter is not an asso-
ciate of his nor ever has been. Mr.. Urner
asserts the contrary of this question. Mr..
Urner says Mr.. Peter is a gentleman; if he is
he is worthy Of belief, and Mr.. Peter says he is
not an associate of Mr.. German. The pre-
ponderance of testimony in the case makes
Mr.. Urner's words untruthful, and he has
made the overweight against himself the
power of conviction by his feigned sympathy.
Urner had better take time in the future TO see
where he is coming out before he starts in an
argument.
Neither is this the time to discuss State
matters. II Mr.. Urner was elected what could
he do in State politics?

Of Louis q Hopson, was found in the Poto-
moe, near the south draw of the Long Bridge

all recognition, should be carried TO the
Eighth precinct station-house, where an in
quest would be held, subsequently postponed,
however, until o'clock in the afternoon.

and formerly a citizen or Bradford Rock

and when leaving the house he said TO bis
mother he "would be corpse within an
hour"
Not returning at the usual time the family
we're alarmed, and notified the police, who
have been looking for him ever since. AT ESQ
o clock that evening his father went 10 the
sta,ion-house aud identified the remains
though In this he was materially assisted by a
copy OF n letter found In his pocket written
to Miss Jennie Sands. who lives on Rhode
Island avenue, near Fourteenth street, together
with photograph Of the young lady aud a
lock Of her hair
On the envelope were the words. "Bury
this with me" The letter told over the stor,
OF bis love, upbraided the lady for her cold

Recently Attorney General Devens sent a
letter to the District Attorney in South Caro-
lima stating that it was CLEANED that promi-
nent Democrats in the coming election in that
State would use intimidation, and urged that
all means be provided to insure the purity of
elections. Purity of election in Republican
parlance means the election of a Republican
wherever fraud lying and false counting can
be triumphant. Hayes is the result of pure
election. But to make the farce more trans
parent it has been discovered that the rumor
was pre-arranged humbug and was started
by political adventurer in the employ of the
Hayes party What desperation Such is
what we must put down, and the most telling
censure for such miserable cunning is for all
Democrats to brand it through the ballot.

On Tuesday elections we're held in Indiana,
Ohio and West Virginia The returns from
Indiana and Ohio are not yet complete, but
indicate Democratic gains, whilst West Vir-
is solidly Democratic. Iowa, which also had
an election on Tuesday, is Republican. In
Ohio the Democas gain Congressman, and
in Indiana we have six Democrats to five Re-
publcans and two Nationals, whereas the
present representation is four Democrats to
nine Republicans. The result shows loss of
five seats to the Republicans, and gain of
three to the Democrats with two Indepen-
dents who are disafected Democrats.
