Mr. nlaine's Rslsxi.n.

One Of the most indefensible grounds
Of opposition to Mr.. Blaine is that of
his religion. In these days of liberal
and religious federation the discussion
Of this question is unworthy of an in
telligent people. Were Mr.. Blaine him
self . Catholic some over-z Jealous profess
sors of religion, whs reflect no credit
upon the cause Of christianity, could go
no farther In hunting up an unjustifi-
able reason for opposing him. The
simple truth Of the whole matter is that
Mr.. Blaine and his wife are and always
have been acceptable members Of the
Congregational church, one of the most
orthodox Of religious denominations
Nobody denies nor has any desire to
deny that Mr.. Blaine's mother was a
Catholic, and we will venture to say
that she was devout and good one. In
her life, rs a mother, as a wife and as a
neighbor, she was, according to all &C
counts, q model woman, and she has
gone to reap her reward in place
where no questions will be asked about
her religious creed.
To discuss her religious character in
any other light than that she was .
christian woman simply because she
was o Catholic Is a shame and an out
rage, and the press and the people who
do it for the sake Of political capital
shsuld blush with shame. Such a
question Is raised only by those who
have very little religion themselves.
II we were all to be prescribed oil &C.
count Of the religion Of our forefathers
what would become Of US all ? Nearly
every man and woman in the United
States have descended from either
Catholic or Pagan stock, and we are
rather inclined to think that those
who are now discussing Mr.. Blaine's
religion are more Pagan than Catholic.
There is no more doubt of Mr.. Blaine's
religious utilization than there was OF
Garfeld's, or, indeed, of any other can
didate for the Presidency since the gov
ernment was founded.

4 Frame 70 FIJI.

The New York World, the leading
Democratic paper of New York, has the
figure of a square moulded frame in its
editorial columns, and it says all the
representatives of the Democratic party
to the National Convention in Chicago
will have to do will be to fill the frame
with the picture of the man who can
be elected President of the United
States. Certain general principles are
required, however, to entitle the man
sought for to place in the frame. The
man must come up to the Jeffersonism
requirement of honesty, capability and
devotion to the constitution.
He must get the votes of all the hide
pendents. He must be Democrat who
was not opposed to the war for the
Union He must not be free trader, and
he must be man certain to carry the
State of New York. This is asking
more in candidate than will be found
in one in the Democratic party.
We know the man who will fill thu
bill, lacking two req uired qualification,
that are not required in his case. First
he will not get the votes of the Indepen
dent Republicans, nor will he need then
and second he is not a Democrat, Meth
er is that requisite in good President
This name is James G. Blaine, and h
will come nearer filling the Worlds
frame than any man that can be found
in the Democratic party. We woult
advise the National Democratic Conven
tion to fill the frame with the pictur,
of James G. Blaine and make his cleo
ton unanimous.

Petty Law Breakers.

In spite of law, decency or the ordi-
nances of the city, there are persons
good, law abiding citizens in other re-
spects, who will persist in driving
horses and carriages over curbs and
k-laid pavements, especially in out
lying portions of the city, where a
point in time can be gained by driving
across an open lot, regardless of pave
ment and curb. Even heavy wagons,
loaded with coal and laden carts have
been driven across newly laid pave
ments, crushing the brick into pieces
and almost running the sidewalk
William Canby's pavement at Rodney
street and Delaware avenue is an 10.
stance Of the manner in which some
people disregard the law. Mr.. Candy,
not for any personal benefit it would
be for himself. but for the benefit il
would be to others, went to the expense
OF putting down curb and laying a six.
foot wide pavement on the sidewalk.
In doing 80 he crossed by-road across
a lot from Delaware avenue, and OF
course, If the law was observed, stopped
the use Of it, especially for horse and
vehicle travel. He took further pre-
caution by erecting a couple of posts,
with sign boards on them, forbiddine
persons with wheeled vehicles from
crossing the pavement, and though this
has stopped some, there are others who
defy Mr.. Candy, the police, law, and
everything else. As it is here, so it i.
in other parts of the city. Peopl,
who should know better, and do know
better, persist in driving over sidewalks
Mayor Wales would be doing the pub
lie great favor by instructing and re
quiring his police to summarily arres
any man who persists in violating tn
laws and ordinances of the city in tn
manner stated.

Young ladies past the age of fifteen.
and from that delicate and interesting
age all the way up to forty, and per.
haps even later, are generally supposed
to be, more or less, on the lookout for
husbands.
Nice dresses and pretty bonnets.
music and dancing, and the polite ac.
coInplishments, in society where these
are cultivated, and very much of what
il called society, are supposed to have
this object in view.
We. do not say how just this is; but
such is undoubtedly the popular idea.
1t is believed that nine out of ten of
all young unmarried ladies' would not
object to a good husband.
But the supply of good husbands is
not equal to the demand.
Consequently, we haye some hun,
dreds of thousands OF old aaids-nuns
who have taken no wells or vows, and
who do not live in converts, but who
are none the less living in state OF
celibacy.
The surplus of women makes the
celibacy of many . necessity. The uu
| worthiness of men is the cause of 8
, greater number.
We see thousands of men around u,
whose married state is a constant mar
/ vel to us.
We cannot conceive how they eve
induced any woman to have them.
| Rough In their manners, careless II
their morals, slovenly In appearance
and filthy in habits, how can these me,
be the fit husbands of tender, delicate
loving women
Still, such men do get married. w,
! N ha
Sometimes they are complained of fo
beating, bruising or stabbing thei
wives. Sometimes it is a suit for di
vorce. But there are thousands of sue
cases that are never heard of. Many
proud, sensitive woman dies of
brutal usband, aud the world neve
knows it.
| Until the standard Of husbandly vii
tues Is raised. and the market bette
Supplied, women will do well to prepar
for the struggle of life without thei
help.
There is too much marrying in haste
and, of consequence, too much repent
ing at leisure. Marriage, which de
velops all that rs lovely, sometime
brings out the worst qualities in men
Many woman at forty exceeds th
Promise of girlhood but how few ar
the men who do not fall very far shor
! of the hopes Of youth
II Probably the chief motive to many
marriage Ia never avowed, and scarcel,
suspected.
Women are such angels of charity
that they marry bad men out q pur
benevolence, in the hope of maxim
them better. They know how mucj
men need their society and influence
and how much worse they would b
without them; and 80 they yive Oh m
selves up, for better or worse, sacrifice
J on the altar of charity. -
