GARFIELD.

From Punch.
So fit to die With courage calm
Armed to con 'front.' the threatening dart.
Better than ski. e such high heart
And helpfuler than healing balm
So fit to live! With power cool
Equipped to fill his function great.
TO crush the knaves who shame the State,
Place-seeking pests of honest rule.
Equal to either fate he'll prove.
May Heavens high will incline the scale
The way our prayers would fain avail
To weight ito long life aud love!

motive is a life at variance with the world and
with ITSELF" and in the delineaton of an unhappy

goodness and love- tn warted by the cruelty of cir

such a theme, but it has been eifectually resisted

The story Of yesterday in the Senate

Senate now stands, to use the language
Of Senator Edmunds, in an equlpoise Of
political forces--thirty-eight Democrats
and thirty-eight Republicans. Fair
being paired with Platt and Johnston
with Dawes, the Senate yesterday stood
thirty-six to thirty-six. David Davis,
elected Senator by Democrats In ILL.,
nois, might naturally have been ex-
pected, II o candidate at all, to be .
Democratic candidate. But he could
not be elected as Democrat, 1t will be
seen, even II he had voted. Such vote
for himself would have resulted In q
tie. he therefore made his bargain
with the Republicans. From this 1t
resulted that there were thirty.six Re-
publican votes cast for Davis. Davis
not voting al all, and Bayard Of course
refusing to vote on q question affecting

nothing long, has been elected Presi

consequently eS-oticis Vice Pres dent

Bayard refused to vote for himself,
and that gave the Republicans the
majority needed to uDseat him and
elect Davie. This exhibition of per-
sonal chivalry was very fine. We
admire 1t greatly. Neverthe ess, as AN
acute critic remarked that the chiyal-
rio charge at Balaklava was not war.
SO We may say that the conduct ol
Senator Bay ard was not politics.
However, we are very glad to set
the Democracy relieved OF an otficia
share of the responsibility for the Ad
minlstration Of President Arthur
Sentiment cannot alter facts, and one
unquestionable fact is that Arthur
Administration will not be one o.
which any true Democrat can ap.
pro4e.
The Star is very excellent news
paper but it has not been careful Of
its dgures. As David Davis received
SO votes and Sena:or Bayard "a, 81
must be inferred that had Mr.. BayarG
voted for himself he would still have
been In q minority.

THE PURCHASING POWER of the
Stalwarts shows itself equal to the
emergencies. First Mahene and then
Davis succumbs. If this policy is to
be continued when will Stalwartism
cease to govern. Guiteau's bullet has
set precedent. The pistol of a
''crank" may destroy the work of the
ballot and make elections useless
'rildon was cheated out of his election
by the Stalwarts ; Hayes was put il
to do their bidding Garfield was pu
out Of the way because he rebelle,
against rascality, and now the Cabi
net that the country hoped to Sc
purify the political atmosphere a
Washington is to be turned out tha
Stalwartism may flourish.
