One of Mr.. Kelly's two papers (both
daily) remarks that "Colonel Mapleson is
getting to be man with a number of griev-
ances The latest is the critics. Accord
ing to his estimate there never was such q
company of artists in this country as Her
Majesty's, and yet they have been SO un-
justly criticised that he fears some of them
will be driven back to the more congenial
critical atmosphere of England or sunny
Italy. This is something terrible to contem-
plate but probably New York would sur
vive it,"
We are surprised that Mr.. Kelly's paper
does not see that Colonel Mapleson and Mr..
Kelly are, so to speak, in the same boat.
What it says Of Mapleson is just as true Of
Kelly. He thinks his political artists the
best in the world, and he is furious with
those who venture to criticise them. But
the difficulty with Mr.. Kelly's ticket is that
it is not good. That is the reason it is criti-
cised; and that is the reason it is not going
to be voted for. AS Mr.. Kelly's paper says,
"this is something terrible to contemplate, :"
but we agree that after all "New York will
survive it."

Everybody should take notice of the an
nouncements made for sport at Jerome
Park on Tuesday next. AS election day is
holiday, and one that is likely to be su-
premely dull to the citizen who only votes
once and does that early, the thoughtful
ness OF the Jockey Club in providing an
extra days racing to save the lives of all
those VINO would otherwise die of ennui is
worthy the consideration of the humane So
ciety. and should meet with an enthusiastic
recognition on the part of the public.
Jumpers are especially favored, as the pro-
gramme shows a mile and quarter handi-
cap over hurdles and a grand handicap
steeplechase on the long course, which
should be a picturesque and exciting race.

out freely it is believed that arrangements

Conining smart rogue in Ludlow Street
Jail is like shutting an old rat inside
cheese; he will gnaw his way out when he
wants to leave. Considering how difficult
it is, in the present state of our detective
police, to capture criminals, and how many
are the obstacles in the way of trial, it
seems the greatest of all pities that we
cannot keep within prison walls the few we
actually catch and convict. But evidently
capture and trial are waste of money un-
less We can do away with or greatly reform
the prison in Ludlow street. This insti-
tuition was last conspicuously before
the public when a notorious crimi-
nal cut hole through the wall and
slipped quietly into a neighboring tene-
ment house and was seen no more by his
anxious keeper. Now five convicted crimi-
nails have gone out in body at one time

The splendid quality of these generous
souls is, perhaps, most strikingly displayed
socially. They may have just lodged their
washerwoman, or explained to their re-
spective wives their inability to spare a
five-dollar bill for family necessities;

Generous Paupers.

Edmond About is credited with saying
that Baron Taylor was the most generous
pauper he ever knew, which proves conclu-

John Kelly's career as candidate for Gov
ernor in New York rapidly makes him the
rival of Kearney. Perhaps he envies the
unique success of that preposterous dema-
gogue, and thinks that our Atlantic coast
should have Kearney as well as the Pacific.
Like Kearney, he abuses everybody who
does not obey him. Like Kearney, every
editor who does not cover him with honey
and incense edits 'licentious press. I"

Native Americ anisIn in Politics.

We regret to see that our able contem po-
rary, the Tribune, feels the stress of politics
so severely that it makes the serious mis-
take of introducing religion as a political
element We observe an article in the
Tribune which convinces us that it has not
read the HERALD. II it's brilliant manager
had taken the trouble to do this he might
still, perhaps, have made the mis-
take of Juggling religion into this
heated canvass, but he would not
have taken the Herald as his text for what
seems to US somewhat poor sermon. The
HERALD, though it has found it necessary
in the public interest to oppose the Tam
many-republican combination in this city,
has taken especial pains to defend Mr.
Kelly against the imputation cast upon
him in other quarters of making use of his
influence as Catholic to further his politi-
Cal objects.
The Tribune imprudently recalls to the
recollection of voters of all classes the fact
that the republican party had in its origin
large admixture of native Americanism,
and thus arouses the suspicious and jeal-
ousies of those who regard that organiza-
ton as tyrannical and oppressive. 1t
serves no useful purpose to revive these
feelings. Mr.. Kelly, with oil his vio-
lence, has not done so, and we regret that
the Tribune should, out OF misguided
party zeal, lend itself to this. What
is the use? The Tribune wants to infame
the Catholic voters and drive them into the
arms of Mr.. Kelly. But does 1t not see
that in doing this it is pretty certain also
to array the Protestant voters in a body
against Mr.. Kelly and against his allies?
Let us keep religious differences entirely
out'of politics. That is the only safe way
and we regret exceedingly to see SO promi-
nont journal as the Tribune breaking
through this sound rule.

The death of Mr.. Chandler will be a loss
to the stalwart wing of the republican
party but that wing has this fall SO COM
pletely swallowed up the other, administers
tion and all, that it can afford the loss.
Mr.. Chandler began lite as dry goods
merchant, and during his very sue
cessful business career contracted a
fixed habit of paying all his debts,
which he carried into politics, together
with q keen wit, still keener eye
to success, and undoubted courage. As he
had always in business paid his own
debts, he was Jealous supporter of sound
money and as he thoroughly believed
that the republican party ought to rule the
country, he spared nothing to mako it SO,
of the National Committee, and when q
timid man in his place might have been
fatal to the republicans.
Mr.. Chandler had some peculiarities as a
politician which made him disliked by
many persons and sometimes exposed him
to ridicule. It used to be said of him in
Washington that he enjoyed nothing so
much in the Senate as ''holding the British
lion up by the tail" His craftsmanship
was OF the bulldog or sledgehammer kind
He was hearty hater, and he never con-
cealed his opinions. His most marked
success in public life was as Secretary of
the Interior. He took hold of that depart
though it had been his own private
concern. Soon after he became Secretary
he established what he called system of
civil service reform of his own. Con-
| gressman, personal friend, came to him
saying, 'Now, Chandler, must be re-
elected, and it is very important for me
that you should give my friend Jones q
good place at once. Hc is the best worker
have got in my district and he wants
something" "All right" replied the Sec
retary, 'you shall have it ut once" He
rang for the list of appointments in the dis
trict, and, handing it to the Congressman,
said, 'You see, the quota is tull, but that
don't matter; pick out any man you want
me to remove and I'll put your man in his
place at once" "But," said the Congress-
man, II can't do that If I ask you to turn
out any of these men I shall get myself into
hot water" "You don't mean to say that
you're asking me to get myself into hot
water for your" demanded Chandler; and
there the conversation ended. This was

which he weeded of incompetent and dis
honest officers with stern and vigorous
hand.
In person Mr.. Chandler was tall, loosely

the shoulders and slouching walk which
gave him figure as ungainly rs Lincoln's

features from commonplace. Though born
in New Hampshire he was typical Western

Mr. Kelly and the Aged Colored
Woman.

A little excerpt is going the rounds of
the press from sermon which Mr.. Moody,
the religious revivalist. preached last
Wednesday, praising an aged colored wo-
man for jumping at stone wall under the
delusion that the Lord had commanded her
to jump through it. We infer that if Mr..
Moody were resident of New York he
would find some points in the political
course of Mr.. John Kelly worthy of COM
mendation. The colored enthusiast con-
soled herself for scratched hands and q
bruised head by r. marking that "it was her
