Joe Murphy, entertained the bi-weekly
card club last evening in Il handsome
manner at their residence, on Neosho
street. Cards, music, refreshments and
other delightful pasnmes were the order
of the evening, which passed in the
plcasantest possible manner. The cour-
age shown by the ''boys" in thus throw
ing open to public inspection their at
tractiye home during leap year, is
worthy at once of praise and emulation.

cal friends might influence him to dc.
part from it wrote beseeching him to
stand fast upon the defense he had
made TO me. That he did not take this
advice is the bitterest regret of his life.
But "the party" would not let him
take it. The accusation struck at the
highest heads in the House and the
Senate. They had but one answer, and
that was positive denial of the fact
that any stock had ever been taken by
them and on that line they expected
Mr.. Ames TO swear them through.
General Garfield, for the benefit of 9th.
ers and to his own great injury, united
in making this false defence. Their
witness failed them and they were all
convicted. After the report of the
committee | wrote TO Mr.. Blaine the
letter which has been extensively pub
lished and which was an effort to put
General Garfield back upon the true
ground which he never ought to have
abandoned. But il was too late.
| regret sincerely that Gen. Garfield
is a candidate or that he should be
placed in any position which calls for
criticism on his conduct as public
man. But | have said nothing that
will be new to him, for in many forms,
at many times, in sundry ways, publicly
and privately, | have given this same
construction of his acts and exhorted
him to come out from the evil and
corrupt fellowship which drags him
down while it pretends to elevate him.
! hope that on all the issues the
friends of liberty and justice and law
and honest government will make
themselves heard by the nation so
clearly that at the next election the
popular condemnation of the anti.con.
stitutional faction will be overwhelm.

well as pray that the country be not
swindled again.
Faithfully and hopefully yours,

Judge Black on Garfield.

Prum the New York sun.
The picture which Judge Black is
said TO have drawn of Gartields moral
character, in the Philadelphia Press, is
a very remarkable one. He appears TO
be acquainted with two Garfields having
the same Christian names, one of them
very good and one of them very bad,
one of them an estimable private citi.
zen and one OF them a most disreputa.
BILE politician. The first one never
swore falsely, and never helped forward
an election fraud while the second one
was Credit Mobilierist, a corrupt con.
gressman, an alder and abettor of the
Louisiana forgeries, and one of the in.
famous eight on the electoral commits.
sion who gave those forgeries the force
and effect of law and OF fact.
Judge Black also states that the Gar.
field whom he knows privately Is an
outand-out free-trader, and is in his
heart rs good Democrat as the Judge
himself while the other Garfield is a
prohibitory tariff man, and a thorough.
going Republican partisan, who long
since gave the key OF his conscience
to his party"
WO soy an1st OG NNo Hltn OF
this name, for il is manifestly i'm mpossible
for two such opposite characters TO exist
in the same person. Judge Black, how.
ever, seems TO think otherwise, and to
have made up his mind that man may
be honest in some relations when he Is
a scoundrel in others that the ''hands"
which take brides in Congress may be
considered "cleann outside, and the
man who lies under oath may yet be
deemed very respectable citizen.
But II Judge Black does not draw at
bribery and perjury the line of distinc.
tion--and we emphatically deny that
there Is any such distinction-be between
public and private morals. where will he
draw III II is, however, with the pub.
lie character of James A. Garfield that
both he and we are required to deal in
this canvass, and OF him we understand
Judge Black to affirm, upon The
strength Of long and intimate ac.
quaintance, that there Is no crime he
would not commit, and scarcely any
that he has not committed, to serve the
party that serves him.
