TIE TRUE AND THE FALSE.-We
think .ge are ever ready to accord merit
to those with whom we differ though
we cannot see how that portion of the
press of Virginia, which in some cases
is opposed to Col. w e. Cameron, can
cOnscientiously speak of him In such
high terms. There are few men we
think in public life that will bear rigid
test of merit.
Col Holiday, in our opinion prosti-
tuted his manhood to his ambition in
no small degree when he wrote that
fatal letter defining his position as E
Gubernatorial candidate.
VIM. E Cameron lost the confidence
of almost all, except blind partisans,
when, in an evil moment he gave up
his true record, deliberately made-gave
up his party and his people to unite his
fortunes to those of VIM. Malone for q
consideratiOn-Offfce. He is truly the
polished and cultured Cameron. All the
more reason, therefore, why we cannot
take him to our heart under such cir
cumstances. And those who profess to
admire the character of the man either
do not understand what true gentility
is or are very easily imposed upon with
a spurious article.
We hold that mans principles are
the only test of his merit. If he is in
consistent, unstable-first on one side
and then on the other, he is unworthy
of confidence, and those who put their
trust in such will find. when it is too
late possibly, that they have been dis
appointed and deceived in their man.

A Letter from Senator COnkling.
FIFTH AVENUE HOTEL,

NEW YORK, July 5, 1881.
My Dear SIR I'm the adherence
with which all decent men alike shud-
der at the attempt to murder the Presi-
dent, have given thought to matter
to which your attention may or may not
have been turned. Our criminal code
treats premeditated homicide in all cases
alike, Irrespective of the victim; murder
being visited by the greatest penalty
Perhaps no distinction between one case
and another could be founded on the
public relations held by the person slain.
But in the case of an attempt to murder,
b. Dad distinction can be made between
asaailing I've life of an individual and
value to the whole people. The shock
mands that the defini ion of the punish-
ment of assaults aimed at high execu-
tive officers, whether successful or not,
should be made thoroughly rigorous
A man who attempts the life of the
President, if morally responsible, COM
mits an offence which the nation ought
to guard against and punish by the ex.
ertion of all the power that civilized ma
tions may employ. Isuggest this as de.
serving consideration. My profound
sympalhies are with the President and
with all of you every hour. Conflict of
reports keeps hope and fear striving
with each other, with nothing stable,
except faith, and trust that the worst is
over and passed. I wish you would ex-
press to the Preside t my deepest sym
pathy in this hour, which should hush
all discords and enlist all prayers for his
safe deliverance. Please also give to
Mrs. Garfield my most respectful condo.
lence, trusting that all will be well.
Cordially yours,
ROSCOE CONKLING.
To Wayne McVeagh, Attorney GenI.
