THE New York Sun says Of the i'm
msculstenominee of the Chicago con-
yention:
We should be glad to think that
Mr.. Garfield had not been concerned
in improper and fraudulent transsc-
tions; we should be glad to think he
had not taken bribes and committed
perjury. Bat the evidence, we are
sorry to say, IS so strong against him as
to make belief in his innocence an i'm
possibility. So against our will, we
have to believe him guilty.

PIKRREPoET's platform has aroused
the Indignation of the Pacific coast
people by its pitiful weakness on the
the Chinese question. The utterance
promises nothing and offers no relief
whatever to that section, and is con-
.demned as idiotic by all the leading
Pacific coast papers.

States District Attorney TOWNSEND. He
was requested in a very civil manner by a
reporter in attendance to permit him to
copy certain paper, which was refused,
not because the publication of the paper
would be improper, but for the ligh-toned
reason that the press had Criticised" him,
and he would not go out of his way TO
oblige it--au observation which implies
that if the press had spoken swectly of him
he would have gone anywhere to repay the
pleasant compliment
1t may not be very important, but no
doubt it will be highly satisfactory to our
readers to know who Recorder SEARS is
how he came TO be thus dignifed with an
opportunity to exhibit his ill-breeding aud
what manner of man he is anyway He
appears TO be rare specimen of that class
of the genus homo who fails TO impress upon
others n sense of his Importance to degree
equal to that which he has established
within himself "A pigmy, though perched
" on Alps, is but pigmy still"

RECORDER SEARS.

Since the opening of the WHITAKER in
vestigation at West Point, and the uncivil
manner in which the recorder snubbed U. S.
District Attorney TOWNSEND, who had been
instructed by the War Department to repair
to the scene of the investigation and see
that Cadet WHITAKER had fair play more
or less curiosity has been excited as to who
this Recorder SEARS is, and how he became
80 distinguished in his relations to the in
vestigation. That he is there, no doubt can
be raised but how he came there is as
much mystery as with the scientist when
he split boulder aud found imbedded in
its very centre q beautifully colored and
perfectly formed chronological specimen
That the beauty was there was n dead GER
tainty, but how I've came there was what
puzzled scientific research.
Now we are indebted to the New York
Hcrad for n solution of this puzzle 1t
breaks in upon the SEARS mystery with q
very full and intelligent explanation Of the
matter. 1t appears that Mr.. CLINTON b.
SEARS, lieutenani,is Recorder of the Court
engaged upon theWHrTAKER case, and, like
another famous functionary of justice, he
seems to be unduly anxious as to the way
in which he shall be written down or up.
This gentleman was graduated from the
Military Academy, to which he was ap-
pointed after years service in regiment
Of Ohio volunteers His commission is in
the engineer service and his position is
that Of assistant professor Of natural phil
osophy at West Point In none of these
facts can we perceive any reason 10 believe
that he is made Of any other material than
The ordinary human clay. Many other
men volunteered about the time he did;
many Others have received an education at
the public expense, aud many others have
taught school; but we do not believe the
majority of men in whose history these
facts occur would consider them as justify
ing the toDloftical demeanor of this officer
in making scene in court because dis
tinguishcd lawyer desired TO call the atten-
ton Of the body to the fact that he was
present TO represent the War Department
at the request Of the President of the
United States.
The curt aud unclyl manner in which
Recorder SEARS received the legal repre-
sentative Of the War Department seems 10
be in accord with the habit of that dis
tinguished official. He assumed an atti-
tude toward the press kindred to that
which marked his conduct toward United
