- Henry Ward Beechcr made a Re-
publican speech In Brooklyn Monday
evening which he thus gently handled
his opponents: ~ don't undertake to
express discsteem of any of the names Of
men that arc proposed to he set in the
golden candlestick of the Democratic
party at its Convention in Cincinnati.
It may be that our eminent citizen Of
New York laughter and Kisses will be
kindled there, and if he should be elect
ed President, let US all pray for the Di-
vine blessing upon him, for he will Ger,
tainly need it. Laughter Or should
the mantle of choice fall upon Mr.. SEN
ator Bayard, of Deleware, say freely
that nobler man could not be presented
by the Democratic party. Applause.
It would assuage my sorrow, if we missed
clecting our own man to see it fall to
him. Or there is General Hancock, il
lustrious in the war Applause and a
notable candidate. And there is the coy
Seymour Laughter, who, like maiden,
modestly refuses to answer until he is
proposed to great laughter, and Thur
man, who, think, would make them a
better President than he has politician
a strong man, and yet liable to weakness
es." Laughter.

TILDEN,s WITHDRAWAL.

!. Alta meeting of the New York delega.
ton IN Cincinnati, on the Goth iinstant,
Mr.. r. w. Peckham, one of the delegates,
presented Mr.. Tilden's letter declining
the nomination for the Presidency. This
letter manifests a noble and. patriotic
spirit. gItpresents distinct issue for the
ensuing political contest, which is para
mount to all other issues: whether the
people shall elect their rulers, or bribed
and corrupt returning boards. Mr.. Tilden
holds that to condone the frauds that
placed the Republicans in power at the
last election is to constitute bribery, fraud,
corruption and force superior to the will
Of the people, and to destroy free and
representative government. 1t may be
said that Mr.. Tilden's declination of
denomination is owing to sense of
inability to secure it; this may be so,
and if so, shows that Mr.. Tilden, although
defrauded by the most nefarious means
of the highest honor free people could
bestow, was willing for the sake of the
harmony and success of his party, to
retire from the political contest, and
leave history to do him justice.
If Mr.. Tilden should exert his power
and influence for the election of the
nominees of the Convention, he will de-
monstrate his patriotism, and prove that
he is more devoted to principle and the
establishment and perpetuation of free
government than to the advancement of
his personal ambition. If Mr.. Tilden
had continued his candidacy, it would
have very much embarrassed the Con-
yention, and might have led to the defeat
of the nominee. Mr.. Tilden's with
drawal was evidently to secure the har-
mony and peace of the party, and thus
insure success, and for this he must
receive the commendation Of his party.

RADICAL ISLANDERS REFUTED.

The article which we publish from the
New York Times, written by its Charles
ton correspondent, was evidently designed
for foreign and not home consumption
otherwise, it would not contain the nu.
merous misstatements of facts which ap-
pear in it. There are no "vassals in
the party to obey the commands of any
man, and there is no leader of the party
sufficiently strong to effect successful
bolt, even ii he desired so to do, and as
to any considerable number of Democrats
voting the Republican ticket, if a good
ticket could be nominated, the statement
is simply absurd, as there is not Repub-
lican in the State who could obtain the
confidence and support of a corporals
guard of Democrats for any one of the
State officers. The assertion Of the cor
respondent that the feeling in Anderson
end other counties named is most bitter,
and that an independent movement is
freely discussed, is utterly without foun'
dation, so far as it refers to Anderson,
Anderson, whatever may have been the
preferences of the people before the Con-
vention, stands to-day united and will
give to the State ticket this Fall larger
majority than in 1876. There were pref
erences among the people as to the can
didates for the State Offices and as to the
locality from which the nominees should
be selected, but when the State Conven'
ton expressed its choice, that choice was
tie choice of the Democracy of Anderson.
AS to indepeadentism, it is not only not
talked Of bat not desired, and if any
leader, whoever he May be, should be
guilty of the folly OF attempting any sHeh

THE CORRUPT CANDIDATE.

The honest, intelligent voters of the
United States will never place in the seat
of Washington, Jefferson, Madison and
Jackson one whose moral character and
political integrity are as vulnerable as
as the following resolutions, adopted by
a large body of General Garfeld's con-
stituents, September z, 1876, correctly
represent that of the Chicago nominee
to be:
;: Resolued, That we arraign and denounce
James A. Garfield for his corrupt con-
nection with the Credit Mobilier, for his
false denials thereof before his constitu-
ents, for his perjured denials thereof be-
fore committee of his peers in Congress,
for fraud upon his constituents in circula-
ting among them pamphlet purporting
to set forth the finding of said committee
and the evidence against him, when in
fact material portions thereof were omit
ted and garbled. :.
Resolved, That we further arraign and
charge him with corrupt bribery in
selling his official influence as Chairman
of the Committee on Appropriations for
$1,000 to the DeGolyer Pavement Ring,
to aid them in securing contract from
the Board of Public Works of the Dis
trict of Columbia; selling his influence
to the said Ring in imposing upon the
people of said District a pavement W hich
is almost worthless at price three times
its cost, as sworn to by one of the con-
tractors selling his influence to aid said
Ring in securing contract, to procure
which it corruptly spent $4,000 g for
influence ~; selling his influence in a
matter that involved no question of law,
upon the shallow pretext that he was
acting as lawyer; selling his influence
in a manner so palpable and clear as to
be 80 found and declared by an impartial
and competent court upon an issue SOL
emnly tried.

the greatest living actress, alter an abb
sence OF some time, returns to Wheeling
on Tuesday and Wednesday evenings,
October 10Th and 20'h, when she will ap'
pear at the Opera House in two plays
never before seen here, viz: Mother and
Sou" and "Beak House." The former
play which was great success elsewhere
last season, is Of the best emotional type,
full Of tenderness, strong dramatic situa-
ton and beautiful feeling. In 1t Nine:
Janauschek presents her vivid creation OF
the Countess. In Bleak House the actress
gives her marvellous dual Interpretation OF
the opposing roles, Lady Dedlock and
Nortime. Seldom, II ever, have such hne
opportunities for witnessing grand dra-
matte pictures been offered our citizens,
and the house should be crowded both
nights. The new company engaged by
Janauschek has already won golden opin-
ions, while the notices OF Madame's per.
iormances speak Of her acting as better
than ever, II possible.

last night by snelbaker 4 Benton's Ma.

has seldom II ever been given there. The
leading features were the Great Clipper
Quartette, who introduced many new and
very taking points, and Miss Maggie Cline,
The phenomenal coptralto. All the features,
however, were most excellent and we can
certainly say with assurance that better
show was never presented ut the Academy
Of Music. The Majestic Consolidation
will remain all week.

THRY DtpS'r Go.-Last night meagre
number Of the "mourners," otherwise the
Young Mems Hancock and English Club,
turned out TO go to Washington, Pa but
they didn't 90. Captain Devries said he
would run a train provided sufficient
number would 20 out, but when the club
got 10 the train, headed by KTameT's
band, Il was discovered that not enough
to justify the excursion had turned out.
So, like the King OF France, who marched
up the hill and then marched down sgain,
the mourners looked at the cars they
could not ride in, and marched up street,
headed by Kramer's band and JEFF Davis
with an approved plug, serenading the
successful candidates who reside in this
city.
Mr.. Kepner, the "workingman's" candi.
date, responded to the serenade substan.
TALLY as follows: ~ have bad cold and
do not feel equal to the task OF addressing
you. Ohio county has done well. The
lesson In Maine has taught glorious les
son in this county. am really sorry for
those moral and intelligent gentlemen who
did not succeed in getting into the Legis-
lature. l do not see what the Legislature
will do without them and their tone, or
how 1t has got along 80 long without them.
Thank you"
The crowd was the most composite and
noisy one ever seen in the streets OF this
city, and their solitary yell was "hurrah
for Brown" It was the best effort at
whistling 10 keep mp courage on record.
