Arrangements for the Chicago Conven-
ton.
CHICAGO, May Interpretations at the Ex-
position building for the Republican National
Convention have progressed so far that nothing
remains to be done except putting in the seats
and decorations. The original designs for de-
corations have been abandoned. The whole
south half of the building is partitioned off from
top to bottom. On the northern wall of the
hall will be a large portrait of Lincoln and
the memorable words with malice toward
none and charity for ALL Hanging from the
centre OF the roof of the hall will be double
mead OF Washington and above the officers of
the convention on the stage will hang a ten
foot draped portrait of Zachariah Chandler.
The headquarters of the Maine delegation will
be at the Matterson House, Massachusetts, at
the Gardner House. /"

THE HOUR OF CONFESSION AND RE
PESTANCE.

Pope says: a man should never be
ashamed TO own he has been in the wrong
which is but saying in other words that he
is wiser to-day than lie was Yesterday
While the entire democratic party should
confess their multitudinous wrongs COM
mitted during the canvass just ended, the
leaders and manipulntors Of the masses
should go down in sack-cloth and ashes
and confess o series Of crimes committed by
themselves in wUntonuess and wickedness,
following their confessions with sincere re-
pentance. The canvass rs conducted by
BARNUM and his coparceners in infamy has
sunk the gauge Of political controversy to
the standard Of cruel calumny, dirty bill
ingsgate aud wicked crime from the earliest
inception of the campaign down to its
very close. If the acts chat have been
done by the democratic leaders, presses
and orators had been committed under the
ordinary relations Of business and social
life every prominent member Of the demo-
cratic party identified with the wrongs and
iufamics of the campaign would be rcle-
gated TO perpetual disgrace in respectable
society. Neither BARNUM nor HEWITT
nor RANDALL nor any other of General
GARFIELD's calumniators would be toll
Grated for an hour in decent society had
they violated the rites and proprieties of
social life as they have those OF political re-
lutiOn.
The assaults made upon General GAR
FIELD by his opponents have been the most
bitter cruel aud caluminous ever intro.
duced into American politics. With pre-
vious life of toll, effort, uprightness and
purity, in which lie has battled difficulties,
overcome the embarrassments of humble
condition and the restraints which poverty
imposes upon its victim, General GARFIELD
has steadily and persistently struggled on
up the hill of difficulty, until he was about
to step upon its very apex, an upright, just
aud good man, enjoying the respect Of his
countrymen aud the sincere love Of those
who knew him best But the moment that
he was named by the republican party for
the highest prize of human honor the pois-
oned arrows of calumny which "the whitest
virtue strikes were hurled at him unceas-
ingly down 10 the very hour when the peo-
pie deposited their ballots which are to
decide the future destinies Of the nation.
National Republican., 1880-11-03
TIE GKANn nEsIfIT.

Although the result cannot be reduced to
absolute maiorities, enough is known to
establish the fact beyond question that the
republicans have carried the day triumph
antly, and have elected their candidates
for president and vice-president, aud have,
as we confidently believe and claim, sue.
ceedcd in changing the character Of the
American congress from democratic TO re-
publican. This is ample for the occasion.
1t secures the future of this nation in the
care Of those who saved its life from the
bloody hand Of rebellion. 1t establishes n
solid north against solid south. 1t gives
to the citizen everywhere some guarantee
in the future that his rights will be re-
spected and preserved, under circumstances
where lie will be permitted to vote and
have his vote honestly counted. This one
achievement is worth all the effort that has
been made in this struggle. 1t does more !;
it secures to the industries of the country
both foster care and protection it pre-
serves financial policy which secures con-
fidence at home aud abroad it guarantees
to the people the souudest aud best cur
rency known to the civilized world.
All this is assured to the country as q re-
ward of republican fidelity and earnest
work. Let the country rejoice. Let the
republicans everywhere be exceeding
glad, for they have won glorious victory
in the midst of contest the most calum-
nious, mendacious and criminal on the part
of their adversaries ever known to Ameri-
can politics. The right has triumphed.
Wickedncss and crime have been signally
rebulied. The nation is safe in the hands
of its friends. The victory is ample as
an earnest that southern methods aud
northern calumnies and crimes cannot
triumph in this country when the people
of the north become aroused.
The details of the battle and its ap-
parent results will be found on the first
page. When the battlefield is cleared oI
its smoke and results become more def
nitely established in detail, we shall take
occasion to discuss the conflict moro calmly
and fully. For the present we are con
tented and happy.
National Republican., 1880-11-03
The Districts Interest in 1t.

Although the people Of this District were
unable to take direct part in the choice of
q president of the United States, they were
really more interested in the result than the
citizens Of any other part of the union. We
mean not only that their sympathics were
enlisted to a greater extent because this is the
capital city Of the nation, but that their ma.
terial interests were to be affected by tho re-
suit to degree entirely unknown by the resi-.
donts of other portions of the country.
To the average voter of Philadelphia the
choice of president is matter of int crest
purely Of a political aud Of nearly an abstract
character. He is excited during the contest
very much as he Is excited by debate MS to
the character of Mary Stuart or Queen
Elizabeth The day after the election he
goes about his usual business, and, beyond a
mild speculation as to the new cabinet and
who will get the local offices, he puts away
his excitement until the next contest occurs,
because his direct personal interest has ceased
with the decision. He expects no Office, prob
ably lie does not even know an Office. holder
and the patronage or custom of oifice.holders
Is of no moment to him. Ho absolutely has
no dealings with the general government uu.
less he happens to be an importer or = liquor
dealer.
In Washington each one Of these conditions
is reversed. The city Is a city of otlicc.holders
or expectant ofice.holders aud their depend
onts. To change the political character of the
administration would induce social and
business change here almost equal to that
occasoned by tho destruction of slavery in q
souh hern state. II would be ms great II disnstei
to Washington life and business as an outbreak
of vel ow fever There would be ten thou
sand homes broken up, there would be ten
thousand houses vacated, there would be two
thousand houses forced to sale. Merchants
and mechanics would lose the custom of all
these families. Dressmakers, seamstresses
milliners, washerwomen, servants, etc, would
find their patrons aud employers suddenly
Withdrawn.
or course such an exodus would take place
simultaneously with an influx Of new peopl,
who would come to take the vacant places in
the departments, and doubtless in year or Sc
the new relations would begin to be as profit
able to Washington as those now existing
But It would take somo slime to readjust th,
lines. The new Oilice.holders wonld be strange
to tho city. They would come AT first with
out their families, 1t would bo at least ont
summer aud fall before many of them woult
begin housekeeping So it is possible ths
the boarding.houses aud lodging-houses would
have little boom. They would not be II
funds to buy furniture and rent houses, mucl
less purchase houses. They would need Il
have time to settle themselves in their new
duties, to be sure that they were competent
aud that they liked their positions.
When the time came to go to housekeeping
and settle themselves into permanent citzenl
the new people would have new relations t'
form with storekeepers aud mechanics. The
