There is little hammering and twisting OF

sides, the new version is the work of eminent
men representing nearly every important Pro-
testant denomination, and is not open to the

ccmmends it ut the start to the entire English

afford new hooks upon which to hang the old
shreds Of dOctrinal controversies, but it was not

people discovered that hr WAS not pleasing TO
the shallow theorists vino know how to pIupo~r

anything. and the result was u general conf
dcncc that the President would prove a pracii-
cal statesman, armed with faculty for getting
things done Now come the followers of
Cohking, Gorham and Brady and their abuse
is mean enough and indecent enough to help
the President materially. If it has no other
effect it will at least convince respectable Re
publicans that a particularly foul set of crca-
lures has been tying To boss the Republican
party and to prostitute it To their private USES.
Lies enough TO furnish forth Democratic Ma
tional Committee have been told about the
President within a fortnight, by persons who
claim TO have done n vast deal To secure his
election. And yet, with the stupidity of men
who are too angry and too mean To Reason.
these same persons pretend to have known. even
willie they were working with all their might to
elect him, that the President was n corrupt and
dishonest man. According to their own story,
they hoped that he would prove base enough To
divide plumber with them, but, since he will not
do what they demand, nor shelter any of them
from justice, they rush forward with pious in
dignation to dcuOuncc him.
Once for all, this sort of SANDER is beneath
contempt 1t will only injure the base polit-
clans and corrupt knaves who resort to it, The
character of James A. Garfield was tested as in
a furnace seven times heated during the Presi-
dental contest, and it came out without "A

they cannot control the Offices or plumber the
Government if they supported him in the
belief that he was corrupt and unworthy,
thereby proved that they were dishonest scoun-
drels who have no claim upon the attention of
decent men. AS for Senator Conkling himself,
if he supported the President AZ his organs now
assert, in the belief that General Garfield had
entered into shameless bargain so to parcel
cat the offices as to reward him, he ut least
merits nothing but defeat and contempt, what
ever may be the truth rs to the President. The
