Fear Of Exposure.
Portland Standard.

The reason Grant wants Radical
success is because he fears exposure
in case of Democratic success. There
is q history hidden in the manage
ment of the National affairs, which
he and his crowd will never allow to
see daylight, and when Hancock is
elected. the people will see such q
scattering of prominent Radicals for
foreign countries as never has been
witnessed before, besides it is more
than probable they will distroy The
bridge behind them. Twenty years

GRANTEES and Galfields, and Sher-
mans, and Conklings, the whisky
ring, Robesons and the Belknaps,
and the Shephards and all the other
thieves, and plunderers, have made
common cause in this struggle and if
necessary to defeat the peoples will,
they will rob the graves of the dead
soldiers and the Treasury of the
United States. If the people of this
country Are capable of self-govern-
ment and ever expect n change OF
Administration, they must make it

Will be forever powerless to do so.
The end of the Republic has come
when q man proved guilty by his
own party of bribery, corruption
and dishonesty can be elevated to
the Presidency. The form of the
Republic may exist, but the liberties
of the people are gone forever.

The PARTY WHICH SAVED THE
UNION. In n speech at Bellville, H.
linois, ex-senator Lyman Trumbull,
candidate for Governor on the Dem
ocratic ticket, in relation to the Re-
publican claim that that party won
the battles of the Union, remarked: ::
But l have not done with this
false claim of the Republican party.
I propose to-day to bury it so deep
with facts and figures that only the
dupes of demagosues can longer be
beguiled by it. The Democratic
State of Missouri alone, in which
Mr.. Lincoln received but 17,O2S
votes in 1860, furnished 1919, Ill men
to the Union army-a greater num-
Der than was furnished by all the
Republican States of Vermont,
Rhode Island, Minnesota, Nebraska
and Kansas put together. Neither
Michigan, Wisconsin or Iowa fur
nished as many troops to the Union
as Missouri. John A. Dix and Dan
iel S. Dickinson, of New York,
Lewis Carr, of Michigan, and Ste
phenA Douglas, of this State, all life
long Democrats and leaders of the
party, the moment Fort Sumpter was
fired upon, came out in public
speeches for the Union"
Following up this representation
of the facts in the case, ex-senator
Trumbull made this strong point
In 1860 Mr.. Lincoln received a total
vote of 1,S66,322, and there were
enlisted during the war 2,678,967
volunteers. If the Republicans
alone suppressed the rebellion,
somebody ought to explain how
1,S66,322 voters supplied 2,67S,967
men of military age.

A Bogus Interview.


A few mornings since the Asuocis
ated Press Aashhed over the countsY
an interview with General Grant, :
which the ex-Presidsnt spoke IN
mind freely OF General Hancock y y
citizen, as a military man and = =
political aspirant. For the first tims
the nation learned that in the esli-
nation Of General Grant, General
Hancock was possessed Of only mill
tary ability sufficient for the conn
mand of q corps. For the first time
we learned that Grant looked upcn
Hancock as one more noted for weak
ness than strength Of charactsr.
For the first time We find that Grant
locke upon Hancock ~ . man insane
on the subject Of the Presidency, as
q man whoif elected President would
be as putty in the hands Of the
South, IS vain, pompous individual
whom the people cannot afford 70
place in the high position for which
he is candidate. Every intelligent
man and woman pronounced this in
terview a fraud-a weak and silly
trick of the enemy--as soon AZ read.
Itgave thelie direct to al that Grant
had previously said Of Hancock. It
placed him in the position Of . man
who deliberately stulti6ed himself.
It was 90 ludicrously absurd that
even Grants enemies would not ~
lieve him guilty Of giving ntteranoe
to it. It hardly needed contradi6-
ton. 1t was 90 silly. 80 foolish, ~,
self.contradictory, 80 unlike General
Grant. But the Republican press
seized upon it with such avidity and
manifested q decided disposition 70
sacrifice the General in the hops of
iniuring Hancock, that he felt that
his self-respect demanded denial,
and he made it in Language not 70 b
misunderstood. He said, / nevor
made use Of such words; I never ut
tered such thoughts. and / hope i

How TO SWEET PICKLE PEARS
Elsie wants q recipe for picking
pears. We prepare seven pounds OF
fruit, peeling and quartering if large;
if small, we cut in half. Cook the
pears in syrup made Of four pounds
of sugar and one pint of vinegar,
also put in some sticks Of cinnamon
and some cloves. Some like to stick
a Glove in each piece of pear. Take
out the fruit when done tender and
boil down the syrup till it is rather
thick and pour over the fruit in q jar.
It may be that it will be necessary to
cook it over again. After week,
it is we'll to watch if there is any
tendency to ferment. If for immed-
late use, we do not use that much
sugar, and do not cook it down SO
much. Plums that are firm are nice
preserved this way. Ground spices
make the preserves look dark, so we
use them whole. Some pears are so
tough that they must be cooked In
clear water awhile, hut, generally,
il is sufficient to cook in the syrup.
We think this is the only way pears
are good, and always use this recipe.

NEW ENGLAND STATES.

Here, in Radical New England, we
find more than two Democrats to
three Republicans. Of over 600, 900
votes, Hayes majority was less than
81 900. If we deduct the 10000 in
Maine which has now totally disap-
peared, there is but little over 70, 900
Republican majority in all New Eng
land. When we talk about the
" Solid North" we must omil the
six rather prominent States named
above. 1t seems that about forty
five per cent of the voters of these
States do not stand in with the only
party that can save the country.

he had diminished his tone TO !
nearly inaudible pianissimo, to con-
tinue the attitude, as if he was play

the bow entirely from the violin,
holding it in the air, and producing
no tone whatever; while his aud
fence, in raptures, at the softness Of
his really inaudible signs, made ear
trumpets of their hands and bent
forward, eager TO catch the sound
which did not exist. Then the vio-
linist, as if suddenly awakening from
trance, bowed to the enrapturod

The First Sleeping-Car

A writer in the Davenport (Iowa)
Democrat, thus tells the story Of the
first sleeping car and its FIRST public
appearances: I" remember the data,
Of it's very first appearance -Septem-.
ber 16, 1858. / was on my way
West, aud had arrived at Toledo
early in the morning behind time.
and had two hours to pass before
the departure Of the train from
Chicago, in the waiting-room. /
had noticed q rather queer-looking
countryman, and somewhat to my
surprise he accosted me with TIE in
quiry, Wouldn't you like to see
something new?' OF course /
would, aud I accompanied him ont
through the depot, among innuinsr-
able cars, one OF which he opened,
and after lighting several lamps. in
vited me to enter. Well, il was
something new--a large car filled
with u double tier OF beds hunks,
properly speaking. The man WAS
Woodruff, the now well-known
sleeping-car patentee, and this Was
the first sleeping car and its first ap-
pearance in public. Mr.. Woodruff
had, during several years past, been
obliged to accompany his wife, :
chronic invalid, from Ohio to Phila-
delphia for medical treatment, and
her suffsrings on the journey had
eonstanfly suggested the possibility
of more comfortable conveyance,
that at last he had conceived the
idea of portable and adjustable
berths, and buying an old car. he
had worked out his idea, and had,
only an hour previously. brought il u
for a trial trip, which was to b
made that night.

HAWAIIAN POLITICS.

There has been quite stir in Hawaiian
politics of late, and principally owing to
the appearance upon the scene of Mr..
CELSIUS Cesar Moreno, gentleman not
wholly unknown upon this coast. He
seems to have persuaded somebody in
China that he could do as he liked with
the Hawaiian Government, and to have
undertaken to procure the passage of laws
making large concessions to opium deal
ers He also undertook to obtain subsidy
for the line of China steamers Of which the
He Chung is said to be the pioneer.
Curiously enough he succeeded in gaining
the ear and confidence of the King, who
was actually persuaded to dismiss his
Cabinet, and to appoint new one, in
which Mr.. Moreno figured as Secretary of

THE CONTEST IN MAINE.

The election in Maine is held on the
second Monday In September, that is to
say, a week from next Monday. The
prospect is as healthy for the Republicans
as it could possibly be. There is in fact
no longer any doubt about anything but
the size of their majority. The Demo-
cratic fusion with the Greenbacksrs has
proved conspicuous failure. Maine is
not good soil for the Greenbacker nonsense,
nor is Scion Chase, it's apostle, powerful
pleader, seeing that he has signally failed
to exhibit the least knowledge OF finance
in his own affairs. The Democrats have
tried to get over the Garcelon outrage by
boldly defending it, but they could not
have adopted more fatal method. They
have only succeeded in deepening the dis
gust and Indignation of the people, and in
convincing them that it would never do to
trust the control of the Government to a
party so dishonest in its practices, and so
shamelessly Indifferent to the claims Of
true democratic doctrine. The fusionists
are doomed to terrible defeat, and the
only anxiety of the Republican leaders is
as to the extent OF the victory already as
sured to the Iafty.

TEE CID STORY.


The New York Bwliejia has begun a
crusade against the mining stock market
in that city, and, as usual in such cases,
sets out with telling exhibit of the
immense difference between the value Of
the various properties and their selling
prices and capitalized showings Nothing
Is easier than this kind OF exploitation.
It has been done in this State So often and
so thoroughly that if there was any logic
III the case the whole stock speculation
business ought to have been blown to fin
ders years ago. But somehow these crush
ing tables of figures never produce the eff
fects anticipated from them. The public
perhaps read them, and perhaps do not.
Ii they appear on falling market they
may tend to increase the depression, but if
they appear on rising market they are
simply ignored When the people who
gamble have lost all their money it is very
easy to persuade them that they were
bound 10 lose it, or that they were SWIM
died out OF it. But when they are ex-
pee ing to make money out OF the weak
pess or folly Of their fellow creatures, no
warnings or exposures can turn them from
their course. In gambling it is not
So much that the people are deceived as to
the real nature OF the operations It is
that the majority are perfectly willing to
enrich themselves at the expense Of their
ncighbors The atrocious maxim, "no
=" friendship in business, has usually been
acted upon in these stock transactions, and
rs the initiated know, TO an extent, in this
and the neighboring State, well calculated
to destroy all belief in the existence OF a
"better side to human nature. There is
no ground for supposing that the people of
the East are differently constituted, and
therefore if boom is once started there
they will all go into it with the usual
hot enthusiasm, utterly regardless OF what
the mines really represent, and intent
only upon 1.-THE gamble" The New York
Bultetia deceives itself il it thinks that
the tide OF rash speculation can be
stemmed with figures. People who gam
bic do not care what is behind the ex-
citement of the moment They are only
concerned to know whether they can turn
that excitement to instant profit So long
as immense sums do in fact change hands
upon the events of the stock exchange it
moreover makes no difference whether
those events are representative or non. rep
resentative. No stock Spectator cares
anything for the actual value OF mining
properties so long as they possess standing
in the Board That is the best evidence OF
their practical utility to such people, and
10 these bogus reports about cross-cuts and
diamond. drill borings, and assays, are in
all respects as good as genuine statements
and proofs. Once let the mining stock
mania get hold of Wall street, and it will
bscome as uncomfortable as it has ever
been on California street, and prudent and
cautious men viii find all their warnings
disregarded so long as anything is left to
bet on and to scramble over.

State for Foreign Affairs. This, however,
was more than the ruling spirits OF the
Islands could stand, and they Instantly
called mass meeting, and passed indig-
nant resolutions against the appointment
of Moreno, chiefly upon the ground that
he was ian alien adventurer. This kind
of denunciation is rendered amusing by
the reflection that three fourths of the peo-
pie who made this fuss are certainly aliens
themselves, and not impossibly adventurers
also. At least il has been asserted on very
good authority that the foreign residents
of Hawaii who have made themselves
prominent in the affairs of the kingdom
have usually been more distinguished by
sharp eye to the main chance than by
what is commonly called public spirit.
However, the pressure brought to bear
upon the king was more than he could
withstand, and so he revoked Mr.. Moreno's
appointment, and it is said that the angry
residents gave the ex-Minister notice to
quit as soon as he could conveniently do
So The Opium bill, and another law
called the Free Rum bill, both of which
it is claimed would have given mischievous
monopolies to the Chinese, have failed to
become operative, but the Legislature did
actually vote the Chinese steamer line a
subsidy of S24, 600 for one year. and it is
believed that this will prove to have been
great mistake. A marked apprehension
of Chinese thrift and enterprise evidently
exists at Hawaii, and not without reason.
The indolent islanders are no match for
the indomitable Mongolians, and if they
are to be kept from perishing they
must certainly be protected against SO
formidable competition. The defeat of
the Opium bill appears to be fortunate for
this State, for the Chinese of Hongkong
contemplated the transfer of the manu-
facture of that drug to the Sandwich
Islands, and would have been able
from so convenient a point to have en-.
gagged in wholesale smuggling operations.
Mr. CELSIUS Caesar Moreno certainly created
a remarkable sensation in very short
space of time, and though he has not taken
much by his bold diplomacy in the long
run, it is clear that he must have succeeded
in winning the confidence of great many
people before he could have done what he
did. As professional adventurer, which
is what he appears to be, it must be adj
mitted that he flies at high game, and that
he is not likely to lose any good thing in
sight for the lack of effrontery and persist
ence. As it is he has failed rather dis
maliy, but with little more tact and
subtlety such qualifications as he possesses
might easily have landed him in clover,
and even have impressed upon a simple
world the conviction of his greatness. In
deed Mr.. CELSIUS Caesar Moreno does not
even now appear so absurdly as did Leuis
Napoleon after the Strasburg fiasco and
yet when Louis Napoleon had swept the
streets of Paris with his musketry few
years later, very few ventured to laugh,
and nobody thought him ridiculous any
more for eighteen years.
