Boston Herald: On the whole. we pre-
snme that our Democratic contemporaries
who feel obliged to throw mud on Garfield,
believe that he is an honest man. We GER
tainly have no party prejudice in his favor,
bat we consider him one.of the most honest,
liberal and patriotic men in Congress repre-
senting in the Republican party what Bayard
represents in the Democratic, and in every
way worthy of respect and confidence. If
the Democrats will nominate candidate
equally good, we shall be pleased to give
them credit for it, and we shall not worry
over the result.

DETROIT Post: Mr.. Blaine has proved
himself leader of extraordinary resources
and remarkable skill. Wherever he appears
hereafter he will be greeted with popular en-
thusiasm, and such acerbities as have been
provoked during the contest will disappear.
The State of Michigan, which Loyalty sup
ported his standard so long as there was the
shadow of chance for success, will greet
him when he shall visit its boundaries, with
such an enthusiastic ovation as no other
man can evoke. And he will WELD that in
fiuence in the national councils which is ac-
corded to leader whose constituency is not
confined to the narrow limits of State or

Husbands and Wives.

Mr.. Redundancy has noticed-That the boy
who is most afraid of the girls is the first to ba
corralled in matrimony. That the little boys
prefer boys to girls. They soon change, never
to go back to their early love. That the little
girls love girls best. That they don't get over
their preference so soon as the boys do, soma
of them never. That women love the men be.
cause they love everything they have to take
care Of That men love the women because
they can't help it. That the wife loves the
husband so we'll that she has no thoughts for
other men. That the husband SO loves his
wife that he loves all women for her sake
That girls who have gwen over all hopes of
matrimony or who never had any, love to fiirt
with married men. That the married man is
apt to think himself all killing among the fair
sex, simply because he has found one woman
fool enough to marry him. That homely hus-
bands are the best; they never forget the COM
pliment paid them by their wives,in accepting
them. That homely wives are the truest;
they know how to make the most of what they
have. Lightning seldom strikes in the same
place, and homely woman feels that a simi-
lar law governs question popping. That the
woman who marries does we'll. That the wo-
man who does not marry does better nine
times out of ten. That the fellow who makes
the most conquests has the least time to brag
That the man who thinks the girls are all in
love with him is happy after his way. That
the man who loves all the girls is happy after the
true way. That the least he says about his love
for other women the smoother will be his mat
rimonial career. That it is time to stop for
