"a Dead Cock In the Pit"

Several years ago the editor OF the
Utica Herald was Republican MEM
ber of Congress He was in the
House during the investigation of
Gen. Garfeld's tran usaction with
Oakes Ames. He for med his judg-
ment of Garfield's guilt with every
facility for getting at the truth Of
the matter. Congressman Roberts's
Judgment was that Garfield was
bribed. In his newspaper he freely
expressed that opinion, and called
loudly on the Republican party to
cast off the unfaithfu servant. In
the classic phraseology employed by
Uticans, he styled Garfield "a dead
cock in the pit"
We have reprinted some of the re-
marks about Garfeld's case which
the Hon. Ellis II. Roberts of the
Utica Herald made in 1873. They
are very interesting. Mr.. Roberts
was strongly of the opinion that
public interests required the repudia-
ton of Colfax and Garfield by the
Republican party. =" For heavens
sake !" he said, in the classic Utica
way, "let us bury our dead out OF
sight, that they may not offend the
public nostrils."
Since Gen. Garfield was nomi-
mated at Chicago the Hon. Ellis II.
Roberts has stood in deplorable
attitude. He can say no word in
phrase of the character of the Re-
publican candidate tor President
without giving the lie TO the delib-
crate expression of his own opinion
at the time of the scandal. Some OF
his Democratic neighbors ridicule
Mr.. Roberts in his present plight.
Others maliciously try TO make his
position even more uncomfortable
than il is. Not long ago the Demo
Gratis of Utica endeavdred to procure
the republication in the Herald of
Mr.. Roberts's remar ks on Garfield
in 1873 by paying for their insertion
as an advertisement at the usual
rates. Mr.. Roberts, in his counting
room, was forced to decline the
paragraphs which he had written as
editor, on the ground that they were
improper matter to print i'll the
Utica Herald, even as an advertise.
mentl
We see nothing ludicrous in Mr.
Ellis II. Roberts humiliation and
unhappiness'-N. y. Sun.

The denial of Commissioner Wal
ker, Chief of the Census Bureau, at
Washington, knocks iu the head all
the finely spun yarns Of the Repubh-
can in regard to the erroneousness of
the census in South Carolina while
the fact that the Republicans run no
ticket in Alabama gives a dynamite
shock to its collations in regard in cleo
tion frauds in that State. Is 1t any
wonder that the Democrats should
have majority of $4,000 in that
great State when the Republicans let
the election go by default, as they did
in Delaware in 1878?

DICK HARRINGTON, Esq, may be
somewhat of an orator his voice may
be good, and his sentences round and
well formed, even musical, and their
utterances may excite the blood Of the
young Radical clubbists and cause the
buck negroes to clap and cheer; but
for all that no rejecting, intelligent
man can read his speech on Wednes-
day night as published in the papers
OF his own party, without. feeling the
blush of shame mantle the cheek at
the ignorance Of its author of the
Constitution of the United States and
the whole system of our Republican
form Of government, or set Har-
ringtou down as one of the most de-
ceptious and dangerous demagogues
in the country. There is no wonder
that the government became SO bad
under Grants administration, when
he surrounded himself with such
political romancers as Dick Harring-
ton, who really does not seem to have
read the Constitution, much less to
have studied it, if we judge him by
his deliberate utterances here to a
crowd of young whites and negroes.
If, on the other hand, Harrington got
his conceptions of what he would
have the government from his con-
sorting with Grant, Babcock, Boss
Sheppard and Williams, there could
be nothing better expected from
Grants Cabinet than the wretched
government he administered to the
people of the South with the use Of
negro soldiers and the bayonet to sus-
tain the carpet baggers, while they
robbed the States and run them in
debt 80 deeply that no negro is able
or willing to pay tax thus made neces-
sary, and vote.
Harrington wants strong govern.

eloquent description by Chas. B. Lore,
Esq, Of what our government was,
and what the Democrats will make it
again if they succeed in electing Han.
cock and get rid of Executive embar.
rassments and such as they met in
Hayes and his vetoes, without losing
their power in Congress. Harring
toms ideas of strong government, i
they represent Grant, and we hav,
never heard such before, and there
fore judge that Harrington did ge
Grants ideas while indulging in hi
cups while managing the series q
flank movements, that were only de
feated by the owner Of that celebrate,
safe and its contents which it is sal
Harrington coveted. If this be 8
the country may we'll congratulat
itself on the narrow escape it made i
not having the third term candidat
fastened upon it, for surely Dick Hal
rington's ideas of Government if car
ried out would give us a governmen
infinitely more to be dreaded than tha
of Russia the Granl Turk, or the SUI

Harrington ridicules the power @
the Republic that was strong enougl
to bring Britannia to her knees on Ian
and sea- ;and make the British red coat

ceive and appreciate the difference be-
tween the State and Federal govern
ments, oil not governed at all as Re
public. In fact, if Harrington's ideas
were carried out wo should have i'm
perialism at once and without the en-
barrasmsnts that the Emperors of the
Old World find to the exercise of auto
cratic authority. On the contrary,
the chief imperialist at Washington
might have ready at hand willing
satrap in overy State to do his bid
ding, with q hundred Thousand Office
holders as his pimps and spies, and
hundreds Of Judges as SO many lackies
to carry out his purposes.
No wonder thero were so many
journalists opposed to Grant, Conk-
ling, Logan and Cameron, and their
scheme for a third term and an imper-
ial government. Harrington's ideas
are those of Grant and Conkling and
Cameron and Logan, and they would
have a government at Washington to
exercise equal powers in the States
that Delaware exercised over "Big
Frank" and the would-be safe burg
lars. MIR. Harrington would have a
Bastile erected in every State, and
whom a man could not be convicted by
jury of his oountrymen in State
Court. he would have him snatched up
as our own Levy Court was some
years ago and tried by jury sum-
moned to covict, as they were then.
Such is the only inference to be drawn
from the conglomerate mass of con-
tradictory and illogical ideas that per-
wade the speech of Dick Harrington,
Esq, in his attempt to reply to the
conservative remarks and excellent
suggestions of Mr.. Lore. There is
little wonder that "Dick" was secuted
by every honorable and educated law
yer that practised as the Bar of the
District Court, in Washington, and
that he found no work there su liable
10 an intellect SO cultivated in ideas
and schemes that would seem to set all
constitution and law at defiance.
The power Of that government that
humbled England under the lead of
the jackson, the Irishman's son; and
that under Scott and Taylor and Han.
cock with handful Of men marched
to the City Of Mexico and invaded the
halls Of the Montezumas; and won
and held in spite of the protests Of
England and the growls of Spain,
Texas, California, New Mexico and
Arizona, that subjected eleven
gallant States, which of themselves
could defy any nation Of Europe, is
not strong enough for the stay-at-
home Harrington and his negro fol.
lowers, who with the courtly Bird and
his Guards would put white men un.
der the feet of negroes by deprlving
them Of their votes in Delaware az
we'll as in Louisiana. Harrington S
speech deserves the scorn and con,
tempt Of every man of sense and it is
not surprising that the best men Of the
Republican party condemn and utter
ly repudiate its sentiments.

PHILADELPHIA is discussing the
question of taxation; the point be-
ing whether it is wise to reduce the
tax rate from $2.l2 to 81. In Will
mington the Republicans came nigh
running our tax rate up to the rate
the Republican city of "brotherly
love" now have it. But the Demo-
cratic Council, in eighteen months
reduced it to $l.l0, and if they are
successful at the election next
month in securing the approval of
the people by an endorsement at the
polls, they will endeavor to reduce
it next year to Sl.00 on the Sl00.
That is what the fight will be for in
September in all the Wards. The
Republican press contended that a
reduction of the tax was not posi-
BILE. The Democrats have proved
that it is possible by giving us a
better government, and more i'm
provements with less money than
their opponents did. Vote the
Democratic ticket and give them a
chance to reduce the tax rate
further. You saved money last
year in the payment of your taxes
through it, and in honor you are
bound, if you are wise, to vote for it

You'd the sphere of the senses the germ theory

this mortal body does not put on interruption
but feeds the useful cabbage and the pota-
