His ResOlute Efforts.

From the Lancaster Examiner and Express,
Aug. Ii, 1878,
We express but the sentiment of all
right-minded, considerate, paying citi-
zens, of both parties, when we extend to
Mayor MacGonigle thanks for having call
ed the attention of councils and the public
in general to the illegal and extravagant
acts of the street committee OF rather the
ring which has been running it and the
tool called the street commissioner. We
hope the mayor will not stop at protest
ing" and calling the attention of councils
to their extravaganza and illegal proceed
ings, but will, if necessary, proceed by in
junction to restrain them, and also hold
the ringlcaders individually liable when
they shall run the city in debt. 1t is no
torious that there has been in this depart
ment at least RECKLEssNEss AND ExTRAvA-
aANCE IF NOT CORRUPTION, and so far as
we are concerned WE SHALL SUSTAIN
THE MAYOR in his efforts to compel an
observance, at all events, of the forms of
law, and we hope he will not hesitate
when occasion requires to call the attention
of councils and the public to the short
comings of those in authority.

A grand banquet in honor of Senator
JOHN p. JOKES, of Nevada, was given at
Delmonico's by ex-senator S. w. Dorsey,

sented a marvel of decorative skill. Each

a memento of the dinner in the form of an
elegantly-designcd menu, finished in gold,
and having on the opposite leaf a beauti-
full bird, dressed in national feathers On the

How to Elect Democratic President.
From the Cincinnati Commercial, Rep.
The third term lunatics seem to think
that if Conkling can carry New York and
Logan Illinois. a Cameron has carried
Pennsylvania, the thing is done the rest
of the country is to be whooped up and
driven like drove of cattle by the ring
sters into the Grant pen. They make a
mistake. The nomination OF Grant by the
Republicans would be equivalent to the
election of the Democratic candidate for
the presidency.
[And yet MIR. Boring was made the Re-
publican candidate for mayor in this city
by exactly the same influences that mis-
represented the Republican sentiment of
Lancaster at Harrisburg. and cast it's vote
for third term.-EDs. INTELL1GENCER.

The Warren Ledger explains that the
reason General Harrison Allen voted all
sorts of ways in the late state convention
is ''that he is too great a man to implicitly
obey instructions from his small-fry con-
stituents."
The Meadville Repu6licn has heard that
the result Of the state convention does not
generally give satisfaction to the party,
and it therefore undertakes to have
enough opinion of its own to say "that
the Endorsement of Grant for third term
is the sentiment of the Republicans of this
state no one believes" This is bold
utterance.

He Has been Looked After.
Philadelphia Times.

The machine leaders of Lancaster have
adopted the plan of obtaining the sigma
lures of all the Republicans in the city to
a pledge to vote for Boring for mayor, lest
many of the innocent sheep should stray
from the fold. The organ publishes the
names as they are furnished, but thus far
Mr.. Michael Snyder hasn't subscribed his
allegiance to his own candidate. Consider
ing that he is one of " the best workers in
the ward," he should be looked after.

Postmaster JAMES H. MARSHALL

POSTMASTER JAMES H. MARSHALL,
who expects Democratic Senateto con-
firm him over Cameron's objection, is
making himself exceedingly officious in
bulldozing Republicans who are opposed
to Boring. Mr.. Marshall's orders from
Washington are that Office-holders shall
take no part in political campaigns, and
if the medicine that he prescribes for
himself proves fatal, he can blame moth
ing but his own indiscretiOn.

Tom COchran's Delusive Cry.

The cry of party that is raised in every
municipal contest is the last hope of the
politicians who are conscious that their rec
ord will not bear the scrutiny of honest
men. 1t is the invariable battle-cry of
rings and jobbers when the taxpayers re-
volt against them, and thousands of we'll
meaning citizens allow themselves to be
deluded by the cunning party call.

MINOR TOPICS.

MINO6 TOTIC6e
The West Chester RepS6lieon says: "a
bill has been introduced to establish the
heinous system of polygamy. It is sincere
ly to be hoped it will be promptly passed
and its provisions rigidly enforced" What
a miserable old woman tho Republican is
getting to be.
THE regular" nomination Of Mr.. Bor-
ing by convention which gave Joseph
Samson the highest vote for school director
and not a single one for Mr.. Brosius. an
outgoing member, is not calculated to
claim much respect from anybody even on
the low ground of partisan fealty.

If Boring's nomination had been left to
the Republican voters of the city, he would
have had about as much show as Grant
Cameron delegate to the state convention /;
and yet just as Tom Cochran had himself
elected to misrepresent the local sentiment
of his party at Harrisburg, he had Boring
nominated, and for the same purposes.

Arthur, Hayes and Sherman

The nomination of Arthur, of New York,
as the Republican candidate for President,
must be painful subject to AIessrs. Hayes
and Sherman, in view of the blow it gives to
civil service reform, for which, ut one time,
Hayes, at least, profcsscd to be sincere adj
vocate.
On the 3lst OF january, 1870, Mr. Hayes
wrote to Mr.. Arthur, on the occasion
of the latters dismissal from his office of col
lector of thcport of New York, saying "You
have made the custom-h house a centre of par
tisan political management" and also. "With
deep sense of my obligations under the
Constitution, / regard it as my plain duty to
suspend you in order that the Office may be
honestly administered"
Mr. Sherman, as Secretary of the Treasury,
was not less virulent in his denunciation of
the dismissed employee. Writing ON the same
day to Mr. Arthur, he says "Gross abuses of
administration have continued and increased
during your incumbency," and further: "Per-
sons have been regularly paid by you who
have rendered little or no service: the ex
penses of your office have increased, while its
receipts have diminished. Brides, or gratu
ties in the shape of brides, have been received
by your subordinates in several branches of
the custom house, and you have in no case
supported the effort to correct these abuses"
To see the man whom they so Justly CEN
sured endorsed by the Republican party must
be CALLING to both Hayes and Sherman, ifthcy
were sincere in their efforts to keep the affairs
ofthe government and machine politics separ-
ate and distinct. They may, however, comfort
themselves with the reflection that their nice
sense of honesty will never be wounded by
seeing their discharged employee presiding
over the deliberations of the United States
Senate

MIR. BRADLAUGH.-Upon Mr.. Bradlaugh's
refusing to take the test oath supposed to be
necessary for members of Parliament, he was
denied his seat. Mr.. John Bright, in speech
remarkable for sound sense, cited authorities
and established the fact that before the reign
of Elizabeth no oaths were required of men,
bers of Parliament, they being permitted to
take their seats without that ceremony. This,
however, was lost on that noisy body and upon
MIR. Bradlaugh's declining to swear, he was
committed to the Tower. The sober second
thought the Commons that they had
acted unwisely and had placed themselves in a
wrong position. They therefore, having taken
vote on the Labouchere BILL which enables
member to make an affirmation instead of
oath, decided the matter in Bradlaughs favor
by majority of tifty-four. Bradlaugh has
been quietly installed in his seat, and his case
is now to be carried for adjudication to the
Court of Queens Bench

Ii Has Fulfilled Its Mission.

General A. J.. Pearson, of Pennsylvania,
has severed his connection with the Union
Veterans National Committee In his letter
OF resignation addressed to General Grant,
chairman of the committee, lie says he has
reluctantly come to the conclusion that the
influence of the Republican party Is ended
and ought to end, that those who pretend to
keep up its organization are doing so for Of
flee and gain, and that its encourage ment of
sectional hate is a constant menace to the
Union. He adds
mo permanent issues worthy of being
called national issues divide the two parties
Free trade and protection are alike the acct
dent of localities, and hence we find free trade
Republicans in the West and East, with pro-
tectiYe Democrats in the Middle States. The
entire issue that divides the two opposing
parties is the issue of hate and usurpaton on
the side of the Republican party with militia
ny dictation Mt the polls. Against this dan
gerous policy the Democratic party has ar
rayed itself and has chosen as its standard
bearer the gallant General Winfield Scott
Hancock, who has placed himselfsquarely on
that issue by proclaiming that the right of
trial by jury, the habeas corpus the liberty
of the press, the freedom of speech the natu-
raj rights of persons and the rights of proper
ty must be preserved. In choosing between
these two parties | cannot see how q patriot
can blunder. Surely every soldier who fought
with Hancock to conquer peace will vote
with him and for him to make that peace ef-
fectual and permanent"
