Col. r. G. lngersoll, in his speech in the
Hail of Cooper Union, New York, Saturday
night, said:
Il admi, that the grea, republican party,
in its efforts to do right, has sometimes done
wrong. l admit that the democratic party
sometimes, in lis efforts to get office, ha. by
mistake done right. Laughter) You see
l am disposed to be perfectly fair. laugh
teri 1t takes an awful deal of labor TO
make a good republican. The republican
party is the preservation of all the martyr
dom and sacrifice Of the world. If YOU want
to raise 4 republican you mus, first have a
school house. II you want to make good
democrat let him alone. Iaughier) Most
men are republicans because they love some
thing, and most men are democrats because
they hate something.

There was quite lively scene on
Pettingal's wharf Tuesday afternoon, when
the American ship Charlotte White was
getting ready for sea. One of the sailors,
a stout. burly, hard looking ticket, who had
received his advance, refused to go on board.
The tug was hitched on and the bow about
ten feet from the wharf when the mate threw
a rope with slip knot in the end, on shore
and sung out "slip it around him and we'll
haul him in" The tar, seeing his danger,
made dart for liberty, but was quickly
seized BY half dozen men. He resisted
stoutly and it was with considerable difficult
ty they managed to get the loop under his
arm pits. A long pull and strong one
jerked the refractory sailor off the wharf
into the water. "Souse him." sang out the
mate and as they lowered him for another
dip he put up his hands and chung on the
rope like grim death until like Grounded
rat he was hauled up, wiser but wetter
man. He found few sympathizing friends
on the wharf, who stigmatized such treat
ment as ''brutal" but the verdict of the ma
jority was "served him right."-St. John
Nees.

DO you observe the impressive silence
of Mr.. 1ilden?
The Democratic party is sick now.
The thing TO do is to put j, out of its agony.
Vote against q party tina; begins to
break its pledges before the campaign is
over.
The Democrats have an issue at last
They are solid for the reputation of their
own platform.
What is Hancock running on' He has
kicked over his platform. He must be run
ming on Ibis shape"
-Hancock's local issue is no longer iso-
lated in his native town. II is up" in ev-
cry town in the North, and il is making a
dreadful racket
Not Hancock W9rkingmen's club is
visible anywhere in the country. The reason
is plain No workingman can vote for Han
cock and tariff for revenue only" and
not vote for q reduction of his own wages.
Hancock and English both have a
grievance against the National Democratic
platform. One plank Of il snatehes the
tariff issue from Hancock's native town and
converts if into a stumbling block. Another
plank declares war on "cormorants," and
thus threatens ruin TO English's thriving
business No wonder they are both kicking
1t in pieces.
I'VE must have another subscription
from you now to help our campaign fund !;
We need II even more nov than we did for
Indiana, you know" Such was the Demo-
cratic appeal to a prominent merchant the
other day. Not one penny more vas his
reply; Il may give money to nurse the sick.
but am not such fool as to throw away
my money trying to resurrect the dead"
Henry Watterson, chairman of the
Platform Committee of the National Demo
cratic Convention, says the tariff for reyen-
ue only" plank was put in the platform after
an all-night session, and was left there after
every clause, every line, every word was
subjected to the closest scrutiny for an en-
tire day. 1T was then, as perfected, brough,
before the Convention, and, not one vote
dissenting. declared to be the platform of the
party" He thinks this removes all respon-
sibility from his shoulders, and he is right.
The party made q unanimous pledge for
free trade, and its Northern wing is now
unanimously trying to make the country
believe that when it said free trade, it meant
protection.

This is the way the Boston TrareiIey
puts il: Intimidation a; the South, fraud
in Indiana, bribery in Maine, false counts
in Alabama. tissue ballots in South Caro-
lima, double dealing on the tariff question
in New Jersey, Illegal naturalization in New
York, false pretenoes in their platform, SLAM
ders on the stump, lying in their newspapers,
violence al the polls, and knayery every

Stand by the Republican Party and its
Principles.

Editor Of the Eiseorth Ameriean. am
glad to see old Hancock County has been
true to the Republican party and its princi-
piles, and rolled up her usual majority. al
though some Of the counties in your State
did not do what they ought to have dong.
But | believe now they see the danger in
casting their lot with the solid South, and
will rally again around the old flag and give
ten thousand majority for Gen. Garfield and
the Republican Fnrty. Stand by this party
because it is a party of progress and the
friend Of the laboring man ana the OPP
pressed. Stand by this party because it
crushed on, one of the most gigantic rebell-
ions that was ever known TO any Country.
Stand by this party because il battered
ted it from the statute book. and placed the
ballot in the hands Of four million of down
trodden, oppressed people. Stand by this
party because II pcnsioned the soldier. the
widow and TIE orphan. Stand by this party
because il passed the hest currency bill that
was ever known and our currency will pass
because il protects the stars and stripes at
home and abroad. and caused the English
Government TO bow to our demands against
them for the work Of thu pirate Alabama.
Stand by this party because it built the
Union Pacific Railroad and linked the
golden States Of the Pacific with the me
,ropolis of the Atlantic. and passed the
homestead bill which has dotted our beauti
fll prairies Of the far west with thousands
Of free and happy homes. If this party
should remain in power, We may expect TO
see in the future great, free and happy
country What has the solid South and
her Northern alias done? They did all in
their power for four long years to destroy
this Government. and to build Govern
ment upon its ruin, with human slavery It's
corner stone. They hoisted the black flag
| Of treason and trailcd the old stars and
! stripes in the dust. They fitted out the
pirate Alabama which swept our commerce
from the sea. They hung Union men and
| shot down Provost Narshals. and resisted
the draft. They tried TO burn Northern
cities. and they saturated clothing with the
| yellow fever black -yomi,. and sent them
/ among the dcfcncelcss women and children.
| They assassinated the best President that
\ ever lived. whose memory thousands and
millions OF people now revere. They have
| filed the cemeteries with the brave bows who
went forward to sustain the Union They
/ have cost the Government billions of money.
4 They starved twenty thousand brave men in
/ the prison hell OF Andcrsonyilc. No, one
Of them have admitted they did wrong, bu,
still mourn over the lost cause and look for
/ the time when their acts will be indicated
through Congress and the Supreme Court.
l. !, possible that the good citizens OF Maine
will cas-, their vote With such a party' |
| think not, and when the sun disappears at
night on the second day Of November
! Maine will be redeemed. and her vote will

A novel way of catching a swarm OF
bees was unintentionally tried at Decatur,
Mich, the other day by young man who
is not likely to repeat the experiment if he
can help it. He ran toward the swarm
with green bough in his hand, over which
the queen bee poised, and then alighted up
on his hat. In twinkling the Others follow
