hs se.t Of Senator Hosr. Either there ls
much feeling against the latter gentleman
,moue Mr.. Bishop's friends, or else his enc

hottest Massachusetts ever saw. Il

HENRY WARD BEEcHER, anent the noml-
nation of Folger, says: "Wheu Christ was
cruciied, Herod aud Plate were friends, SO
when Cornell was defeated; avarice and re-
yeuse met and kissed. May Dy right hand
forget its cunning If vote to put man IN
his place for the sake of avarice or revenge,
and the leaders can't blind me by putting up
a good man to vote for. l would have you
say TO Folger, You are mere catspaw, used
to put the face of responsibility on an act
that is Internal We will not consent to the
meddlipg in local and State matters by the
general government" e'alas i'7 e.ai

The same result followed the Star-ronte
trial at Philadelphia as at Washington; the
pimp was found guilty while the principal
escaped. OF the five defendants in the case
iust now concluded in Philadelphia only one,
Joseph r. Black, is found guilty, and even
he has the benefit of the jury's recommends
ton to mercy. Yet Black is one of the least
important and least responsible of all the
ro9ues against whom indictments have been
found. Black was a tool OF shrewder men,
some of whom have not even been brought
into court at all. Much of the evidence
against him was procured by his own testi-
mony. Never thelsss, the principals escape
while the agent suffers.
SAYS the Albany IN. ~ Evening Journal,
a very ardent Republican paper: The Re-
publican organisation of the State sends
greeting to Don Cameron in PsnnsJivania,
10 William Malone in Virginia, to Jay
HubbeIl in Michigan, to Chauncey L. Finley
in Missouri, to Stephen W. Dorsey in Arkan-
sss-and under the captaincy OF John +.
Smyth begins campaign for the Offices. OF
the result of such csmpaign-made by
regular army from whose ranks all doubters,
all yisionsries, all men with scruples, all
men disposed 10 cavil at penitentiary otenses
'for the good of the party" have been
drummed out-we repeat, there can be no
possible doubt"
Ex-SENAroR JAMES NJ. OAKLEY, prom
inent Democrat of Queens county, N. T.,
makes the positive statement that certain
friends of the Hon. James G. Blaine have
offered him (Oakley) $4,000 and his cam
paign expenses if he will run as candidate
against Congressman Perry Belmont; and
that they further agreed to give him an sd
ditional $40, 600 in case he defeated Mr.. Bel
mont. Mr.. Oakley says he promptly re-
fused 10 lend bimself to any such dishonora'
BILE scheme" Mr.. Blaine was very much wor-
ried BY Mr.. Belmont's persistence in get
ting at the bottom facts during the Ship
perd Peruvian investigat but 1t Is hardly
possible he will approve of the means sought
10 be adopted by his adherents 10 accom-
plish the defeat OF Mr.. Belmont, who, during
his brief congre ssional service, has given
evidence OF decided ability and industry.
According TO the Republican Campaign
Book. the most important and praiseworthy
act in President Gsrfeld's career, in the eyes
of the party managers, was his letter to Hub
bell. asking ho8the departments were doing,
and encouraging Brady to squeezs the Star
reuters. II is shown that the corrupt" De-
mocracy is responsible for the vicious law
forbidding the assessment OF government em-
ployes. The rebel brigadiers-nay, even
Wade Hampton and JEFF DaVis-appear as
angels of light in comparison with Mr.. u.
w Curtis and his friends. Mr.. Curtis is al
luded to as a bulldozer, willful hbeler,
ballot box suffer, supporter OF the South
era oligarchy, and, on the whole, anything
but nice young man for a small tea-Party,
while reform aud free trade are classed with
secession and slavery.
HE most ludierous incident of the cam
paigu," says the w sshington Post, "ss 1t Ii
conducted by Hubbell & Co., is the circula
ton of document No. 10, entitled "A Corrup
Ballo,-Box and Prostituted Ballot Thu
first section of this formidable pamPhie
contains the thrilling story of Gen. Chal
mers's conquest of the Shoestring District
which has a population OF 10000 black
and 81 coo whites" We thus have this pre-
MYSTERIOUS committee collecting money b,
bulldozing devices to put into Chalmers
district, ia order TO elect him to Congress
while the very mails that carry the funds 10
that purpose contain the garbied evidenc
and speeehes in the Lyneh-Chalmer
case intended to show that Chalmers is on
of the most despicable characters ever see
in public life. This is the first time In his
tory that any committee has undertaken
a. sams time 10 use q man as an awful ex
.n,nla and TO elect him to Congress-
,.;rt him a. a sample devil OF diabolics
n.r,v while gathering funds TO secure n
return to the place whence they and thei
friends had driven him. Is there any Re
nubl;cau Who feels proud Of this business
L. there one who is not ashamed oil 1t?
