gentleman,
Look over the young mon who gather In the
association palace on Twenty-third street,
aud note their dress and appearance. They
are lot OF comparatively well-to do young
men, and are men whose early training and
natural incllnations would have led them into
q Christian life. 1t is a good thing to keep
them safely within the fold. But the poorer
class, the artisans, tho apprentices, the me-
chanics, the laborers, are not reached. IL Is
fact that there are large numbers OF young
men who are intellectually the equals
OF any member of the association
who are debarred from Its privileges because
they are not able to dress well enough 70 enter
the "society" that meets In that building. III
that association was organized on principles
adapted TO reach the most needy masses, iu-
stead OF one central palace worth half mil.
lion, there would be n hundred small estab-
llshments situated conveniently about tho
city.
Other clergymen were interviewed with
much the same result.
1t will occur TO many who read this that
1t is to the credit Of these associations that
their rooms are attractive and their ten
dency to become religious clubs merely can
not detract from them.

GENERAL GRANT is reported to have
said recently that Blaine and Sherman had
as good chances in 1884 for nominations to
the Presidency as ever. He may have in
tended it for sarcasm. But there is no
doubt that either gentleman may have
"hopes" If Sherman is nominated for
Governor of Ohio and should be elected
next fall he would undoubtedly be the
foremost candidate in the National Con-
vention next year. Ohio is still battle
field State, and about the only one of any
Importance as an indicator. If Sherman
can carry it this year he can carry it next
year.
Mr.. Blaine still retains large following,
always will, and is as strong throughout
the North as any Republican can be. If he

VINCENTs DEFALCATIoN.
MIR. Shelley's Views as to the Responsibility

New York, Feb 5-Congressman Shelley,
of Alabama, who is in the city, expresses the
opinion that Wolfe, whose name has been
used in connection with the default of State
Treasurer Vincent, is in no sense response
BILE. The business OF Wolfe is the buying
and selling of cotton futures or orders, and
is regarded as a legitimate business Mr.
Shelley holds that there was no improperly
in receiving orders from q man as we'll
known as Vincent, any more than from any
any other business man. He says, fur
thermore, that rumor obtained
general circulation that Vincent was specu-
latiug, and as lit was alleged he had been
successful, no one objected and no steps
were taken to inquire into the propriety OF
such speculation. until the revelation of his
defacation. He also said Vincent was fond
OF card-playing, and that he played for high
stakes. IF this is trne," SAYS Mr.. Shelley,
"the persons who PLAYED with him, whether
State, county, or bank officials, or private
citizens, could be implicated in his default
with as much propriety as Wolfe"

Wolfe's property. The committee has
gwen out no suspicion of guilty knowledge
on the part of other firms here through
whom Vincent dealt. The telegraph COM
pany has not given up the dispatches called
for by the committee.
The amount of the States claim against
