stand. Those who look through the
spectacles of efete diplomacy may
be able to see it, others cannot.
The petty wars which have dis
tracted some of the American States,
have seriously interfered with our
South American commerce, and it is
q matter of interest to those of our
people who are engaged in agricul-
ture and manufacturing, that there
should be an end to them. The
voice of humanity is heard pleading
with eloquence irresistible in favor
of peace. What right has Great
Britain or Germany or France,
or any other country to
say that our country
shall not tender it's good offices in
the interest of peaeea It may be a
diplomatic pretext, but it is cow
ardly and lacks the merit of common
sense. It is utterly absurd and SUI.
premely foolish. To offer such an
excuse for opposition to the proposed
peace congress, is to admit that
there is no better, and an acknowl-
edement that the work is undone for
no other reason than it was begun

"THE GONG IN POLITICS."

Under this caption the st. Louis
Globe-Democrat treats of the an
nouncement that after Lent the
President is going to inaugurate q
series of dinner parties at the White
House. 1t says:
A French cook, well up in all the
picturesque details of the art, has
already been retained, and the mar
kets of the leading cities will be
ransacked for viands of the choicest
description. It is not yet known
what rules will govern the matter of
invitations. but it is safe to assume
that in the course of things every
man of prominence in politics will
get card; for underneath the idea
of hospitality in this instance there
evidently turks we'll defined notion
of business. The Pesident is prac-
teal man, and knows how it is him
self. He has seen many a man
captured with a good square meal
who could not be won through any
amount of patronage or silenced by
any degree of antagonism, and he
proposes to seek the friendship and
support of leading statesmen and
persons of influence by appealing to
their heads not only, but also by
satisfying their stomachs.
The plan is deeper and more cal
culating than it looks to be. Man is
a feeding animal. The opinions are
Influenced by the palate to a far
greater extent than is acknowledged.
Some writer's contend, with a good
show of illustration and deduction,
that the style of food has much to do
with the formation of character. To
tickle mans palate, therefore, is
| to draw his teeth, as it were; to put
him in generous humor, and make
him soft and pliable. The Congress
man who crosses his legs under the
Presidential table, and. tells yarns
over the Presidential champagne, is
not libly to be insistent about the
posteffices. It is a difficult thing te
disagree with a President who in
vites you to dinner, and laughs a
your jokes, and gives you conun
drums to guess. Mr.. Arthur evil

MIR. BLAINE'S CAUTIOUS CRITICS.

The operations of the State De-
partment in our government have
been so far removed from the popu-
lar eye, that the people know little
and care less about it than any other
department of the government. Not
that it is less important, for the head
of this department has always been
considered the position Of honor in
the cabinet, and it has been filed by
some of the most distinguished
the nation-Thomas Jefferson, James
Madison, John Quincy Adams, Hem
ry Clay, Martin Van Buren,, Daniel
Webster and Lewis Cass. But aside
from the perpetual scramble going
on for foreign appointments, the
clamor of the Office seeking mob
does not attract the same share of
public attention that is bestowed
upon the post>ofice and treasury
departments.
There is an impression, some
what general in its nature, that the
chief business of the Secretary
of State is to play the agreeable
to foreign potentates and to care
fully consider how not to offend
these exceedingly formal and pro
foundly dignifed gentlemen. The
result is, that the average Secretary
of State, to use the language of
another, is $50 afraid of doing
wrong that he cannot do right" and
there has been danger that this
would degenerate into sort of Dig
ni6ed snobbery, Hence, Mr.. Blaine's
plain, outspoken, direct, wide-awake
and vigorous policy, has been
regarded as innovation, and that
class of people who are oppressed
with q superabundance of dignity,
have been seriously disturbed. But
the people rather like the change.
They think the country can stand to
have Secretary of State, at least
once in great while, who has opins
ions, and who is as much devoted to
his own country as to any other.
Under Mr.. Blaine's administration
there was a shaking up of the dry
bones, and majority of the people
of the country knew that there was
such a thing as State Department
But while the people were pleased,
some of the grandmotherly dignita-
ries were shocked, and through their
organs have been treating us to col
umns of what they call criticism, but
which is more properly, captious
fault-fnding. For instance, in the
matter of the international peace
congress proposed by MIR. Blaine
and approved by President Arthur,
to be participated in by all the ma
tons of the Western Hemisphere,
these chronic directors oppose it,
because Europe was not con.
suited, and they are afraid
it would give offense to some
of the crowned heads of the earth.
We imagine that such an objection,
although it appears to be made in all
seriousness, will provoke broad
smile on the benevolent countenance
of our Uncle Samuel. Why the
United States should be deferred
from doing what is right, whether
taken from humane or CONNER.
cial standpoint by a craven fear of
the public functionaries of the old
world, is something that the practi--
cal common sense people of this

ster and Wilde
From the Woman's journal.


We say that the clergy are the ap
pointed guardians of public morals.
Yet, what clergyman, in preaching a
funeral discourse over an eminent or
opulent parishioner, ever admits that
he had a vice? Almost every Doc
tor of Divinity who now speaks pub
icly of Daniel Webster bows down
before ''the especial greatness of his
moral nature" and utterly ignores
or denies the questionable personal
habits which were matter of COM
mon notoriety thirty years ago. It
is needless to particularize about
these habits; they were almost as
notorious, though probably not so
great, as those of Aaron Burr; and
are, like his, now incapable of direct
proof, since at a mans hundredth
birthday it is hard to produce per,
sonal evidence of misdeeds. Yet
L have not seen reference to
these things among those clergy
men who now celebrate his tow
ering moral nature and it is left for
Iayman, literary man, a man of
tina world, like Henry Cabot Lodge,
manfully to recognize and deplore
these drawbacks to which the others
have shut their eyes. This is surely
no guardianship of the public morals.
One is almost led to ask" said a
business man to me the other day,
whether the clergy have really the
same moral standard with other
menu"
But the moral of all this goes fur
Their. Women are not distinctively
recognized as the guardians of the
public purity as are the clergy of the
public morals. Yet when q young
man comes among us whose only dis
tinction is that he has written Q thin
