THE MOREY FORGERY.

When the Democratic managers con-
descend to utter and publish such pal
pable forgery as the pretended :" Morey
letter, it is the most outspoken cenfes-
sion of defeat that they could possibly
make. Commenting upon this piece of
laundering malignity, the New York
Herald says:
"We have waited some days to see if
General Garfield would make such de-
NAL of the authorship of this letter as
we are convinced he ought to make if he
did not write it. His denial over his
own name would, in our opinion, settle
the question. 1t would, in any case,
throw the burden of proof upon the
Democrats. who, for political ends, have
made it public. and would leave them.
until they brought such proof, under the
Just suspicion of having uttered for
gerry
To which it is only necessary to reply
that, Immediately on information of the
forgery, General Garfield telegraphed to
his Secretary. Major Swain, who was
then in New York, an indignant and
authoritative denunciation of the Morey
letter as a stupid forgery" This should
have ended and settled the matter. 1t
will, so far as intelligent and impartial
men are concerned. If the Democratic
party, not satisfied with getting on its
belly, in the gutter, thinks 1t can save
itself from defeat by diving into the
mud and smearng itself all over with
slime, it will meet the fate which has
always awaited that style of campaign
ing which the American people, at the
polls, get chance to rebuke and punish
such degradation of politics. We hope
the mud campaign will continue, and get
lower and lower, So far as Gartield's
chances are concerned. But he would
be sure Of a magnificent triumph with
out such aid. and American politics are
diSgraced by such praetices-futile as
they always have proved.

THE HELM uI STATE,

Look 1T the picture then and now. Then
there was a gigantic rebellion, which had
been fostered and encouraged by the former
Administration: not dollar in the Treas
ury; the national credit gone no army or
navy, arms or munitions of war: open re-
bellion triumphant in many of the States
and tire lson rampant in the rest In this
dreadful condition of affairs, the Republi-
can party commenced its record. which has
been growing brighter and more glorious
ever since, Never before has this country
enjoyed such n season Of prosperity; every
branch of industry is fully active: money of
the best quality is abundant; the tide of
gold is flowing towards u.s. and not from
us, As under Democratic rule; the balance
of trade is in our favor, and not against us,
as it invariably is under their rule. The
national debt, the legacy of the Democracy,
is fast disappearing, and the credit of the
Government is fully restored. Peace and
eontentment smile all over the land. This
beautiful picture is attracting to our shores
the oppressed and down trodden working
people of other lands. The Republican
policy makes them welcome. Let them

Lord BYRON.

Byron has no relation to the master
minds whose works reflect a nation or an
era, and who keep their own secrets.
His verse and prose are alike biographi-
cal, and the inequality of his style are
those of his career. 1t was natural for
him to pose as the spokesman of two
ages-as a critic, and as an author and
of two orders of society-as a peer and as
a poet of revolt. Sincere in both. he
could never forget the one character in
the other. = = = The fact of his be-
ing q nobleman helped to make him
famous; but it also helped to make him
hated. No doubt it half spoiled him in
making a show and the circumstance
has suggested the remark of a humorist,
feet gentleman as for q camel to pass
through the needles eye. But it also
exposed to the rancor of jealousy o man
who had everything but domestic happi-
ness to excite that most .corroding of lit
erary passions; and when he got out of
gear he became the quarry of Spencer's
''blatant beast" We find him at ono
munificent and careful about money 4;
calmly asleep amid a crowd of trembling
sailors, yet never going to ride without
a nervous caution; defying augury, yet
seriously disturbed by a gypsy's pratt
ting. He could be the most genial of
comrades, the most c~onsiderate of mas
tiers, and he secured the devotion Of his
servants, as of his friends; he was too
overbearing to form many equal friend
ships, and apt to be ungenerous to his
real rivals. His shifting attitude toward
Lady Byron, his wavering purposes, his
impulsive acts, are a part of the charac-
ter we trace through all his life andwork
strange mixture of magnanimity end
brutality, of laughter and fears, consist
emit in nothing but his passion and his
pride, yet redeeming all his defects by
his graces, and wearing a greatness that
his errors can only half obscure. Alter
the idol and horror of his contem-
poraries. Byron was, during his life,
feared and respected as the "grand Ma
of the realms of rhyme" In the
interval between 1S40-70, it was the fash
ion to talk of him as q s-entimentalist, a
romancer, a shallow wit, a nine days
wonder, q poet for green, unBnowing
= Now, however, he is
resuming his place: his spirit has come
again to our atmosphere and every bud
ding critic, as in 1920, feels called on to
a verdict on his genius and
character.-Professor Nichok.

Wonderful Mirages In Arizona.

The excursionist in Arizona, writes q
correspondent, in leaving his couch be-
fore sunrise, must not be surprised to see
lakes where the maps show no water, and
mountains turned bottomside upward in
the air, and such other illusions as aerial
castles, Notifications, railroads, forests
and all descriptions of architecture. It
was only a few weeks ago, between ella
Bend and Maricopa, that I witnessed a
most marvellous and and exquisite series
of transformations reflected by the phen-
of mirage. The Sierra de las
Estrella mountain had entirely disap-
peared, and in its place was a walled city
upon the margin of a beautiful lake. All
at once the city disappeared; q cas-
tellated mountain rose in the middle of
the lake and turned into a palace, which,
after balancing itself into the air, toppled
over and sank into the bosom of the tran
quill waters. Then arose a multiplicity
OF grotesque elevations, which rapidly
assumed the character of fairy islets, with
lakelets within themselves; then, owing
to the unequal densities and refracting
powers of the adjacent strata of air, the
islets became transformed into castles,
cathedrals, butresses, cubes, Notifications
and other rock systems of architecture,
which only survived, however, to vanish
on perfect completion. Again rose an
object which resembled a magnificent
opera house, or cathedral, with the re-
quisite description of gothic windows and
domes, balustrades, imposing arches and
door-ways and m~any-colored lamps. This
last picture gave way to an immense
tube, which seemed to be suspended in
the air until shivered into almost infn-
itesimal fragments, each of which as
sumed a variety of shapes, with serrated
borders, and soon vanished or became
truncated below the horizon. Then
arose an immense island, in shape not
unlike Alcatras; again it closely resell
bled Gibralter, lifted in the air, all the
while presenting al aspect as threaten
ing as either of the strongholds above
named. Then came the Pyramids, and.
anon, the Casa Grande, precisely as it
exists fifty miles away. Presently a
great broad white scarf seemed to have
been thrown over the last-named eleva-
ton, yet permitting a formation like the
picture of the Crock of Ages"
