WE invite the attention Of Nevada
Republicans to the brief paragraph given
below from the New York Times. They
will learn from it how Mr.. Garfield has
stood on the silver question. 1t will be
observed chat he is warmly commended
by the Times for his bold stand at all
times against what that journal is pleased
to denominate "a dishonest silver dollar"
Read, gentlemen, read, and then ask
yourselves whether this is the kind of
mar that Nevada desires to see in the
chief Office Of the Republic:
In guiding. shaping and perfecting Ma
tional legislation on the financial question,
he tGarfeld) has ever been a sagacious
and unfinching advocate Of hard money,
and . persistent foe Of imitation. whether
in the shape Of q deprecated paper or .

THE REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE
FOR vICE-PRESIDENT.

Two years ago, says the Sun, Chester
A. Arthur was removed by Hayes and
sherman from the Office of the Collector
of the Port of New York, on the direct
charge Of insficiency, with the implied
charge of dishonesty.
In his message to the Senate of January
81. 1879, Mr.. Hayes said
with my information Of the facts Of the
case. and with q deep sense Of the respons-
ible obligation imposed upon me by the
Constitution, to take care that the laws be
faithfully executed, / regard it as my plain
duty 10 suspend the officers in question,
and TO make the nominations now before
the Senate, in order that this important
Office may be honestly and efficiently adj
ministered.
In order that the custom laws might be
faithfully executed, Mr.. Hayes found
himself compelled, by a deep sense OF
duty, to remove Chester A. Arthur.
In order that the Custom-house might
be efficiently managed, Mr.. Hayes re-
garded it as his plain duty to emove
Chester A. Arthur.
In order that the Office might be hon.
estly administered, he felt obliged to re-
move Chester A. Arthur.
In Mr.. Hayes view, the then Collector
Of the Port of New York was neither a
faithful, q competent, nor an honest off,
Ger of the Government.
What was John Sherman's opinion Of
General Arthur at that time!
In a letter to Hayes, dated January
%, 1879, Mr.. Sherman said:
II to secure the removal Of an officer, it
is necessary to establish the actual com
mission Of o crime by proofs demanded in
. court Of justice, then it is clear that the
case against Mr.. Arthur is not made out,
especially If his answer is held to be con-
elusive without reference to the proofs OF
the public records and rendered TO the
committee and the Senate. But if it is to
be held that, to procure the removal OF Mr..
Arthur, it is sufficient to reasonably estab-
lish that gross abuses OF administration
have continued and increased during his
incumbency; that many persons have been
regularly paid on the rolls who rendered
little or no service; that the expenses Of
his Office have increased, while collections
have been diminishing; that brides, or
g~ratuities in the nature OF brides, have
been received by his subordinates in sew
eral branches Of the Custom-house; that
efforts to correct these abuses have not met
his support, and that he has not given to
the duties of the Office the requisite dill
gence and attention, then it is submitted
that the case is made out. This form OF
proof the Department is prepared to sub
NIT.
In short, John Sherman claimed to have
proof in his possession that Chester A.
Arthur was either a fool, incapable Of
watching the thieves whom he cherished
in his office, or a rascal who winked at
their crimes. Indeed, he plainly insin-
uated that nothing except the actual legal
evidence of Arthur's c~riminality was
wanting to put that official into prison
instead of retirement.
What a qualification it must be to Gen.
Arthur and to his many warm friends tc
find this very same John Sherman and
Rutherford B. Hayes now supporting hin
for Vice President OF the United States

The Personages Of "EndymiOn." "


Prom then. Y. world.
So many requests have been receiv-
ed by the Uorid for the republication
Of the key to the characters in Lord
Beaconsfeld's new novel of "Endv-
mon" that we now print it more fully
and accuratel V than before. 1t must
be remembered, however, that with
the exception Of two or three person
ages none of the characters introduced
from real life into this curious book
by Lord Beaconsfcld can be said to be
painted by him with the intent of max.
ing portraits. Most Of his pcrsonages
are made up of odds and ends taken
from the leading trait, of two or more
celebrated individuals. Mr.. Jennings
truly cabled to the World that these
odds and ends are so tossed and tum-
bled together" that it will always be
easy for Lord Bcaconsfcld, should he
think fit so TO do, TO deny that he
meant to make deliberate portrait of
any particular person in any part Of
the book, excepting always as we have
already observed, in two or three in.
stances such as Ste. Barbe aud Sidney
Wilton, for example. Bearing this
in mind, the reader of "Endymion"
will doubtless find his enjoyment Of
the book enhanced by the discreet use
of the following key:
Endymion Ferrars-Benjamin Dis.

Myre Ferrars (his sister ).-Eugenie,
Empres, Of the French.

AFRAID OF BEING CHEATED.

The uneducated mind does not see
through those forms hy which business
is transacted. There is a well.known
story of two honest Dutch neighbors.
One of them, Hans, borrowed twenty
dollars from the other, Jacob.
"Must | give you n writing, for dis,
JacobY said honest Hans, rs he pock-
eted the money.
yah, dat is what they do, dinks. "
Hans scrawled something which
meant that he had borrowed twenty
dollars from Jacob, and would repay
him as soon as he could. lie handed
it to Jacob.
mo, I don't keep this" answered
Jacob, scratching his head, as if
in doubt. "You must keep it so dat
you'll know you owe me de money"
A similar perplexity as to written
promise TO pay, once sent an honest
but ignorant hosier out of court
room, in hot haste, lest he should be
cheated. In the early days of Indi-
ana, the lawyer used to follow the
courts. Riding the circuit" it was
called, and it demanded horses that
could struggle through mud.roads and
swim over deep rapid streams.
During the court session, n lawyer
bargained for pony for twenty-five
dollars, on credit of six months.
The next day the owner brought the
pony, but required security for the
payment of the price. The lawyer
Centre Democrat. [volume] (Bellefonte, Pa.) 1848-1989, 1880-12-16

drew note at the top of sheet Of
foolscap and signed it. His brother
lawyers, some twenty in number, sign
ed it, and then the court-thrce judges
wrote down their names.
The lawyer presented the thorough
ly signed note to the man and was
surprised to hear him say: "Do you
think am fool, to let you get the
court and all the lawyers on your side?
| see you mean to cheat me out of my
pony
Up jumped the alarmed man, ran
out Of court, mounted the pony and
galloped for home as fast as the horse
could carry him.

Sarah Bernhardt and her Precious
Coffin.
From the New York World.


Richard whitoins's Pari. Letter TO New York World
Sarah Bernhardt objects strongly to
the imputation of singularity, and yet,
if it were not rude to contradict a
lady, one would have to admit that
she sometimes does eccentric things.
Her latest proceeding is to have her
self photographed in her coffin The
coffin has long been part of the fur.
niture of her home and very beauti-
ful thing it is. 1t is enough to make
one long for death II was originally
present from friend, who has
spared no pains in making it worthy
of the lady's acceptance, and it has
since been largely embellished by the
recipient. 1t was a fancy of hers,
which she shares, or might have shared
with the late Admiral Lord Nelson,
and with others of the great, to have
her last lodging constantly in view,
and, as it were, under repairs at the
hands of the prospective tenant
Whenever she has had bit of lace to
spare or a new idea in quilting or
embroidery she has put it into the
coffin. For long time she used it as
her bed, but that practice was finally
abandoned, at the earnest solicitation
of the doctors, as tending to hasten
the approach of the moment when she
would have TO take it for good aud
all. Musing of late on that moment
and its incidents, it occurred to her
that it would be a good thing to leave
