purity of character and intellectual train
ing fit him for honorable and arduous
Judicial work. If he shall decline the
profIercd honor, preforring the freedom
and profit Of professional work, he will
but exercise the citizens privilege. He
has given the best years Of his life to the
public service, and has won fame which
can never be eclipsed. Never will dis
honorable act be laid at his door. Moth
ing in all his career has been more re-
markable or admirable than his retcence
and composure amid the storm of detrac-
ton which has ragged around
him since the 25th of last March,
for, be it remembered that since
that day tho only words to which
he has ever given public utterance are
those contained in the letter to Governor
Cornell in which he resigned his seat in
the Senate.
The small opposition made to the con-
firmaton for this high station shows the
real place he holds in general estimation.
If he should decline the commission
there would be general feeling of deep
regret, which would not be confined to
any party, much less TO any faction.

Metropolitan Industrial League.

The friends of protection to American
industry are moving in behalf of their
cause. The Metropolitan Industrial
League, of New York is called to meet
at the Fifth Avenue Hotel on Tuesday
next, 9TH instant.
The call is signed by large number of
leading manufacturers, and the object of
the meeting is stated to be the formation
of a permanent central organization to
exert proper influence in the present
emergency and at all other times when
American industries are assailcd.
The Democratic party was defeated in
1880 as much on account of its tariff-for-
reyenue-only" plank as any other one
thing, 1t tried to offset this among the
laboring classes by the Morey letter
forgery. In no campaign since 1860 has
any party so touched the sympathies,
feelings, and interests Of the great masses
of mechanics and workingmen as ours
did in 1850, If our pledges of that year
are not remembered and kept we shall be
punished hereafter for our delinquency.
OfCourse changes can be made in the tariff
without any injury to the industrial
classes, The people will look to see only
such changes made, The sincerity of the
general cutlery against the Morey letter
is also soon to be tested. 1t would be u
fraud to protect American labor against
pauper wages abroad and then allow the
importation Of Chinese laborers who are
satisfied with any wages they can get,
and who are always the lowest bidders
for work.

Pacific Coast Fan.

A San Francisco rough named Hamilton recently
assisted the keeper ofa brothel to murder man
in her house for having testified before the grand
jury at Portland, Oregon. A Portland paper says
OF him: lie was notorious rough and as brutal
as Carrie Bradley. One of his fayorite sports was
to engage q stranger in conversation in Il bar
room, drink with him, get on familiar
terms and then poke nun at the man,
who would usually return his sallics Of wit.
At this Hamilton would work himself into pas
sion, seize tumber breal; of the smooth rim on
the edge Of the bar, and then, holding the base of
tho tumbler in his hand. would cash the face of
his new formed acquaintance. leaving marks to
be carried for life, This he did on several occa-
sons just because bo liked to sec men carry sears
from wounds which he inflicted" He evidently
