The New Hampshire republican state

The New Hampshire republican state
convention was called to order at IL
O'Clock in Whites opera house. Concord,
by Henry II. Huse, chairman of the state
committee. Hon. Daniel Barnard OF
Franklin was chosen president, with a
long list of vice presidents. Mr.. Barnard,
on assuming the chair,reyiewed the causes
leading to the war, the organization of the
republican party and the good work it had
accomplished during an existence Of
twenty years, and so brought it down to
the present day. Referring to the party's
nominee for president, he paid him a high
compliment and declared that he would
be the next chief magistrate. or the
democrats he said, the democratic party,
Notwithstanding their history, have come
again from the cotton fields of the south.
united with the discordant. elements of
the north in common cause to get the
control of the government, which they
so ANONYMOUSLY surrendered in 1860.
| Their platform is to be constructed from
the spells of office, should they be so for
tunate rs to meet with success. In con-
clusion Nj. Barnard said, in view of the
record of the two parties such as impartial
history has written in the condition of the
country, and the prospective and probable
results which would follow the restora
ton Of the democratic party to power, we
might with due reverence say with the
prophet of old, IF the Lord be God
follow Him, but if Baal, then follow him. "
Hon. Charles II. Bell of Exeter was
nominated by reclamation for governor.

Gen. Logan in Il recent speech defined
the democracy as u faction Of obstruction
lists that "have not supported single
measure for the restoration of the Union,
the credit of the nation, or the prosperity
of the people," A pretty vigorous
arrangement that, and one not easily
answered.
A man in Hampton county, South
Carolina named Holmes, northern
republican, who settled there after the
war and built up the thriving town of
Almeda, on the Port Royal railroad, and
who has treated negroes like human
beings, has been notified to desist or abide
the consequences.
Mr.. Larkin j. Mead is busy in his
Florentine studio modelling the colossal
figure representing the Mississippi river
which is to be presented to Central Park

white marble.
The democrats of Indiana are exceed
ingly inharnonious and their canvass is
in danger of breaking into pieces before
October. Mr.. Hendricks appears to be
disinolned to exert himself for ticket in
the fate of which he feels that he hash I
the slightest interest in the world. Mr..
Barnum, chairman of the national com
mittee, made stealthy visit to Mr.. Eng.
fish ut Indianapolis but further than the
inviting of Mr.. Hendricks to make some
speeches in Indiana the latter was not
consulted as to the plans for the campaign
He has thousands of personal and polltca
friends in his state where Mr.. English has
one. He was the first, last and only
choice for first place of the Indiana dele
cation at Cincinnati, and as soon as it was
seen that he WAS to be sacrificed in order
to secure Mr.. Englishs money for the
campaign, subsequent proceedings inter
ested the Hendricks men no more.

The New York Times has been unearth-
ing the wing investigation of 1912 into
the extravaganza and waste of the Van
Buren, and Jackson administrations. They
show. what every one conversant with the
history of the government knows, that
every generation has had its full share of
corruption and Observation-Disclosures from
the very start. The methods of federal
administration have steadily improved in
the last eighty years; each change does
something to ferret out abuses and expose
extravaganza There are, for instance,
few worse chapters in the reckless waste
of money, if any one chooses to examine
them, than the allowances to foreign
ministers in the first third of the century.
but successive exposures redressed the
evil. just us the investigations of the 44th
congress have done their share IN improv-
ing the political atmosphere At Washing
n.-Repabtican.

From Our Regular Correspondent
Washington Letter.
WASHINGTON, d. C.. Sept. 4, 1880

WASHINGTON, ID. C., Sept. 4. 1880.
The systematic electionoering tactics Of
the thoroughly disciplined republican
party is beginning to tell in this cam
paign. The morale of the party. which
was meme the best Immediately after the
Chicago nomination. has been improved
and invigorated to the height of enthusi-
asm. From all sources come to the
republican headquarters here reports that
their phalanxes are strong and steady. or
only broken to admit new recruits from
the enemy From most trustworthy
tabulated reports that have been shown
me. the prospect of carrying New York
and Indiana seem every way encouraging.
On the democratic side there is q
curious lack of activity, though there
may be change during the coming
month. Buffers speech in Boston prob
ably marks the real opening of their
canvass. which will apparently consist
principally in an arraignment of the
republicans for great but undescri bed
corruption. The existence of this cor
ruption the details of which have not
hitherto been given--is deduced PRIOR
from the length of time the party has
been in power. The democrats are evil
IDENTIFY bothered a good deal by the pre-
vailing material prosperity, and theil
| raforapoao tO II ara uarv niOus and show
more recognition of the benificence o.
providence than they have generally
received credit for.
The Tammany hall and Tilden demo
cratic committees have made II lottery o
the New York city Legislative offices. Tit
prizes for nominations for assembly dis
tricts were drawn on Wednesday. Tht
numbers were placed on strips of pape
and John Kelly and Hubert o. Thompson
representing their respective factions, eacf
alternately drew slip which secured tt
his faction the control of the nomination
in that district. The success of anti
Tammany in securing the nomination o
candidates in eight districts formerl.
carried by Tsmmany hall, as against tn
nomination of four Tammany candidate
in districts formerly carried by the Irving
hall organization, suggest that the draw
ing at Westminster hotel was a sur
thing gone" on the part of the Tildel
men.
In case of democratic national victory
vast possibilities open up for the lottery Q
spols. The leaders have no anxiet.
about appointments. Cabinet positions
foreign MISSIONS collectorships, and tn
post Offices could be disposed Of by lot o
rattle. and even the funds in the treasur
might be thrown in as capital prize

Bishop Elder of Cincinnati has created
sensation among his Catholic flock by
declaring that no banged or frizzed hair
will be allowed among the women of his
congregation.
The democracy pirate good deal about
the great number of soldiers who are
rushing to Hancock's support Here is a
sample of the rush: At the reunion of
the thirty sixth Massachusetts regiment,
on Thursday last, careful inquiry revealed
only two Hancock men among two hun
dred veterans.
Acting Signal Officer Howgate's anxiety
to secure his own appointment in place of
Myer by asking commercial bodies over
his own name to urge The selection of him
upon the president has resulted in his
summary suspension from duty by the
war department. Charges of NAL admin
istration of funds on the part of Howgate
are denied by Adjutant- General Dunn,
and as he is in many respects a worthy
officer he was allowed to be /" relieved at
his own request"
The death of Charles I. jackson, the
distinguished physician and scientist, re-
calls one of Oliver Wendell Holmes s bon
mOts. DR.. Jackson, as our readers are
aware, regarded the use of anesthesia as
the great discovery of his life. His claim
was fercely disputed by fellow phys-
clan, and Holmes. commenting upon the
controversy. suggested that the best way
amicably to settle matters would be to
erect monument, with the diplomatic
inscription, Here's to ether"
The Boston Journals Washington cor
respondent says: Zone of the South
Carolina enumerators has written to Gen.
Walker asking permission to withdraw
certain papers for the correction of what
he calls an error of two hundred names
Gen. Walker declines to comply with this
request, as there is no possible reason for
mistake of that kind. The insertion oil
two hundred additional names could only
have been done by intent; this is the the
DRY of the bureau. By computation
which has been made it appears that,
should all the census enumerators of that
state have made similar mistake, the
population would have been increased Al
per cent,
The three large Jesuit schools in Paris
have entirely evacuated and the authori
ties have walled up the doors of the
chapels of the establishments. New civil
directors are already installed in the
vacant posts. With regard to other
schools affected by the March DEGREES, it
is rumored the government and various
unauthorized religious confr .ternities
have agreed upon the terms of a letter
which is to take the place of a demand
for authorization hitherto required by law.
BY this letter the heads of schools will
bind themselves to hold aloof from politi-
cal questi ms and not take an attitude OF
hostility toward the present order of
things. On the presentation of this letter
to the authorities the government will
consider the congregations legally author
lied.

bitterness as utterly depraved, treasonable
and loathsome. Mr.. Butler, too, want, ,
change. He admits that the republican
party was once respectable. hut il has
fallen away from its pristine virtue, and
now deserves only TO be destroyed. Iii
an interesting fact in this connection tina,
the republican party became respectable.
in Mr.. Buffers opinion, just when il
began to provide for Mr.. Bu'ler, and its
virtue went out of it when il was definitely
ascertained that it would provide for him
no longer. Democratic candidates in
general want a change. 1t is useless and
would be untrue to accuse them of
insincerity. They do exceedingly want d.
change, and they are pretty numerous,
but there are not so manI of them tina,
they can fairly call themselves the
people" In saying that the people want
a change they mistake small part for
