Garfield on the Leisure Of Boyhood


A, the commencement exercises Of Hiram
College, Ohio, on Thursday, Gen. Garfield
in the course Of an address, said -
While have been sitting here this after
noon, watching your faces and listening to
the very interesting addresses which have
Just been delivered, il has occurred TO me
the best thing you have, that all men envy
l mean all men who have reached the mer-
idian Of life-it is, perhaps, the thing that
you care for less, and that il your leisure.
The leisure you have to think the leisure
you have to be let alone; the leisure you
have to throw the plummet with your hands
and sound their depths and find what is
below the leisure you have to work about
the towers Of yourselves and find how strong
they are or how weak they are, and deter
mine what needs building up and determine
how to shape them, that you may be made
the final being that You are TO be. Oh,
these hours Of building. If the Supreme
Being Of the universe would look down
upon the world, to find the most interesting
object, il would be the unfinished, uniformed
character Of young men, of young women.
Those behind me have probably in the main
settled such questions. Those who have
passed into middle manhood and middle
womanhood are about what they shall al.
ways be, and there is little left of interest or
curiosity as 10 our development bu, to your
young, uniformed natures no man know the
possibilities that lay treasured up in your
hearts and intellects, and while YOU are
working up these possibilities with that
splendid leisure you are the most envied Of
| all classes Of men and women in the world.
congratulate you on your leisure; ! COM
mend you to keep it as your gold, as your
wealth, as your means, out Of which you can
demand all possible treasures that God laid
down when he formed your nature and I'M
yelled and developed the possibility Of your
| future"

the year 1880 one Of serious disaster to a
large part of New Jersey. About Long

numbers. Hardly blade OF grass is stand

Letter from Washington.

WASHINGTON. u. G., June IL, 1850.
General Garfield is veil known 10 the peo-
pie Of the eountr, by reputation. and as they
become better acquainted with his public
service. on the battlefield and during h.
long term in Congress. the, wall better un-
ders;and hi. true worth, and appreciate the
wisdom Of our Representative. in choosing
him As our standard bearer. Mr.. Garfield,
views Of ha, President should be are best
represented in his speech nominating Secre
tAry Sherman. After describing the work
Of the Republican party in developing our
national industries, in oyerthroving rebel
lion, in re-establishing the Union upon the
basis Of the equality Of all men before the
Law, and in settling the financial problems
created by the e1eg-ncies Of the War. Gen
eral Garfield said I'VE want a man whose
life and opinion embody all these achieve
menis. We want a man who. standing as
1t we're on = mountain height, sees behind
him all the achievements and in his heart
all the love for the glorie. OF the past, looks
forward TO meet the dangers 10 come" The
man who expressed and felt the opinions
above is surely the right man a, this time,
TO lead the Republican hosts to victory.
And predic, that when the achievements.
and public services Of General Garfield be-
come known to the masses Of the people, be
will be the mos, popular candidate since
Linooln's time. His nomination MAS the
result Of no bargain OF political intrigue.
Delegates we're sent in favor Of three prom
inent candidates. But the fight for prefer
ence became so bitter that the delegates saw
that q nomination Of either Of the three gen.
tleman would have resulted in hard feeling
and apathy on the part Of his rivals. They
then rose above the factional and unnatural
| feeling into which the Convention had sunk
and nominated q man who has united the
party frmer than it has been for years. a
man in whose support the Grant and Blaine
and Sherman leaders cordially unite. With
such enthusiasm and harmony of purpose
among its leaders, and with the powerful
aid Of the Democratic record for the past five
years. the resul, in November is decided
beforehand. The confidence Of the people
in the Republican party is Is firm as ever
and they will continue it in power.
The Democrats have passed their mar.
shals bill. the one with the rider" TO it.
The Republicans opposed it only by speeches
to go upon record. Since Garheld's nomin-
alton. ve don't fear harmful effects from the
operations Of these Democratic mon parts.
an" laws. The Election supervisors bill
will probably pass, but If it does it will b
vetoed. The President has no idea Of al.
lowing the Democrats to cripple him in the
exercise Of his authority BY employing en-
tirely new men to execute the election laws
Oh no!
The Senator'S who attended the Chicago
Convention were IN their seats again yester
day. Senator Hoar was smiling - i
pleased with the result of the Convention.

Fusion.

Fusion l. now an accomplished fact
in this state. and We think every one
should be pleased. When there is
mere alliance. neither party to the ALI
ance will confess 10 any responsibility
for the doings of the concern. The adj
ADMINISTRATION of 1879 was blot on the
fair fame of the State. and Democrats
charge it of to the Greenbackers and
the Greenbackers say il was all owing
10 the Democrats. The final yillainy
OF classifying returns and undertaking 10
seat Legislature never elected, Is BAN
died from one party 10 the other. You
eYpostulate with an honest Greenbacker
and he will say il was all owning to
Pillsbury and Garcelon. Expostulaie
with an honest Democrat, aud he viii
say it was the work of Fogg, and Eos
ter, and their class of men.
Now, however, they have fused. They
nominate the same man for Governor,
and viii nominate the same men for 9TH
er Offices. They are now one party,
and every man who votes with them en-
d0rses the errors Of the whole party.
There will be no escaping the responsible
ity after this. A citizen who believes
in honest money cannot vote with them,
without surrendering his principles. A
citizen who believes in the supremacy
Of the government and its power and
duty TO protect the humblest person, can
not vote with them without DENYING hi.
conscience.
We are glad to have the issue fairly
presented at last. We don't want to
hear hard money democrats SAYING any
more that they preserve their hard mon.
ey principles. and will not vote for a
greenbacker. Nor do we want to heal
greenbackers of republican anteeedent,
saying any more, that they are no dem
Ocrs;s, and won't vote with them.
hard money democrats now vote at all
they must vote with the Republicans. Oh
With soft money men. If greenbacker
vote ct all, they must vote with Repub'
Leans or. with the men they have 81
long denounced, for their treason.
We may be sorry for their dilemma
We hope they will side with us. But W.
ere glad they can no longer straddle. bu
must decide to stand BY their principles
or abandon them.
