IT is pleasing to see with what
cheerfulness and self-confdence, the
brainey editor of the Philadelphia
Press undertakes to form a new Cab
met for the President, and to relieve
him of the trouble of having any
opinions of his own. If it wasn't
for Smith-Charles Emery Smith
of the Press, we don't see how the
President could struggle along, or
the country, and the Republican
party be saved. Wasn't it Smith
who saved the Republican party of
Pennsylvania last year, by placing
it under the guardianship of Patti
o and the reform" Democracy [?
And can't he save the National Re-
publican party b. the same process,
If allowed TO do so? Without Smith,
and Smiths advice, and Smiths
tactics, and Smiths control, the Be-
publican party will 90 to the dogs.
The President is efete, his Cabinet
is a conglomeratien of brainless old
fogies, and only by heroic doses of
Smiths reform panacea, can tbs
country be saved. HSmith was to
die-perish the thought-the Presi-
dent might neglect his in~junctions,
his Cabinet might remain unehang.
ed, the present administrative policy
might be continued, and the country
would assuredly go to the demnition
bow-wows.
Good people all ! pray that Smith
Charles Emery Smith-may live
long sad prosper, and also for more
power ~ his goose quill, for you
know not what may befall you,
-sheuld be be .cut off in the flower of
his youth, and through his untimely
end, the Philadelphia Rrssz cease to
be q power in the politics OF the
State, and of the Nation.

THE old folly of attempting to fix
the hours of labor by Legislation, has
again been revived at Harrisburg.
If it is competent to establish by
law that eight hours shall be ac-
counted a days work, then it follows
that five hours, or fifteen hours, may
also be fixed upon, according to the
within of each succeeding legislature.
The only result of this folly, if con-
summated, would be that labor
would be employed by the hour, in
stead of by the day. Those who la
bored eight hours would be paid for
it, those who labored ten hours
would be paid for ten. The attempt
to compel by law, the payment Of
ten hours wages for eight hours
work, is simply folly.

Hoosier statesman's views.

Senator Voorhees, of Indiana is a
great talker. He is one of those men
who would not say anything unless he
talked, and might talk considerable
and yet not say anything. He has been
talking to the Washington correspOn-
dent of the Boston Traveller, and con
veyed the remarkable information that
EX-SenatOrs Hendricks and Mcdonald
are very friendly in spite of all reports
to the contrary. He dispOses of the
"bOOm" for "the old ticket" by saving
that Mr.. Hendricks is not anxious for
the old ticket of 1876, and is not can
didate for either the first or the second
place on the ticket. In view of that
gentleman's position in 1880, this is
certainly piece of news. 1t is clear
that the "Tall Sycamore of the Wa
BASH is Mcdonald man, for after dis
posing of Hendricks in this summary
manner, he proceeds to say that Nc
Donald is a candidate for president in
the fullest sense of the word. After
saying that the eX-senators are Just as
friendly as they have been for the past
thirty years-and they have been warm
personal friends all the time,-he says
"While | am friendly to both and a
great admirer of both, | am satisfied
that Mr.. Mcdonald is the choice not
only of the democrats of Indiana, but
of the whole country. If he is nOmi-
mated and tariff-for-reve -onl V
plank is kept ont of the platform, the
ticket will be elected beyond peradven-
turc."
Voorhees, has come out as moder-
ate prOtectiOnist since the election
of 1850, and as Mcdonald leans the
same way, it is easy to observe how
the lndianian arrives ut his deductions.
But he has never been regarded as IA
very wise and safe counsellor, aud his
greatest service has been performed on
the stump, where his vociferous voice
and commanding presence has great
weight with the sturdy yeomanry who
vote the democratic ticket.

the cash accounts. The company be-
came aware of the over-issue about two
months ago and Mr.. Ravens removal
was quietly effected, and his place was
filed by James II. Williams of Bellows
Falls. 1t is said that Haven became
heavily embarrassed, and filed out
blank certificates of stock signed by
the president in blanks and left in his
hands to facilitate transfers, and sold
them to Charles Clement or his agents.
Clement bought for the sake of driving
John b. Page from the presidency of
the road, and when he discovered the
fraud took security on Ravens proper
ty. The company is secured against
loss, and Mr.. Haven is alone RESPONSE
ble for the transactions in question, all
of his property being attached on
the suit. Mr.. Haven is a deacon in a
Congregational church, has been very
active in all Christian and moral work
and was chosen vice president at the
recent general convention at Newport.
He managed the Bates house at Rut-
land as a temperance hotel, and made
it the best hotel in the state.

The democrats of Ohio have nomi-
mated Judge Hoadley of Cincinnati for
governor. as was forecaSted by the
nomination of Judge Foraker by the
republicans. Hoadley previous to lS76
was republican, and his first identiii-
cation with his present political assoc
ciates was in the defence of the Cronin
electoral college in Oregon. He is a
Tildcn man, and was selected as the
president of the national convention at
Cincinnati in 1850. He is Il man OF
large wealth, having reported income
of 5000, 600 Il year, which is not Obiec-
tionablc to the party workers-provid-
ing he allows himself to he freely as
scsscd. He appeared as counsel for the
liquor dealers against both the Pond
hill aud the Scott law, which will give
him the support of the liquor interest.
Inasmuch as the republican candidate
stands on temperance platform, the
contest will he largely on this issue.
Senator Thurman is reported as say
ing. rs he left the convention. ''The
ticket cannot be elected, and does not
deserve to he" Whatever the influ
cncc of Tilden may he in Ohio politics,
that influence, and money if need he,
will Ice used for the success of Hoad-
ley, which will assure a warm cam
paign and doubtful result.
