dent that the old hero himself was one of the
worst victims, fact sufficiently attested
by the present calamitous collapse of
his fortunes. In all the fierce heat
of political warfare, no one has
ever questioned the personal integrity of Gen
eral Grant. 1t is sad and sorrowful to think
of him with broken health, and reduced to
almost poverty in his old age, and there will
arise everywhere an increased demand that
Congress shall at once pass law to put his
name upon the retired list Of the army, with
the rank and pay he gave up when he as
suned the duties of the presidency. The
News of last night well says; at is shame
that the American people should allow the
great General who crushed armed rebellion
and saved this Union, to be thus distressed,
when an act Of common decency would put
him on the retired list, with the rank and pay
of the office he once so worthily filled. Twenty
years ago there was no price this Nation
would not have given for Grants services"

THE DEMOoRATIo DILEMMA.

Mr.. Watterson is in the last stages of Ran
dallphobia. Here is the way he raves when
the paroxysm seizes him:
"a nice little trundle-bed those Democrats
are making for themselves who see nothing
but social call in Mr.. Randall's raid upon
revenue reform. Just wait till Mr.. Clevelands
Cabinet appears, and see whether there are
any protectionists in it. Next wait for the
Presidents message, and the report Of his
Secretary of the Treasury, and see whether
there is any protection in them. Then run
over the tally-sheet containing the names Of
those who are in such hurry to heroic Mr.
Randall because he lost Pennsylvania by
&c. 1000"
Mr.. Watterson, in all probability, will be
disappointed in the new administration. Now
that the respon sibility will rest upon the
Democratic party, it is not so anxious for pro-
gressive free trade as it once was, nor is it SO
uncompromisingly hostile to 'the rohber
tariff" It ought to be plain enough that the
tective legislation is largely responsible for
the present depressed condition of trade and
manufacture. This has been especially no.
ticeable since the last session of Con-
gress, when such desperate attack
was made by Democratic congressman
on the policy of protection. The vote taken
in May last, when 153 Democrats voted for
the Morrison horizontal reduction bill, did
more than anything else to paralyze business
in all its branches Manufacturers were
alarmed, and few had the nerve TO keep up
their business to the old limit, not knowing
what would be the outcome Of the agitation.
Then came the ambiguous declaration Of the
Democratic platform, which was interpreted
by free traders to favor them, and by others
to suit themselves. Workingmen in some
States were persuaded that their welfare
would be enhanced by the adoption of free
trade, or revenue reform, as the more conser
vative styled it. But this did not quiet the
fears of manufacturers, who, as advised by
Mr. Watterson, have been Coming in out Of
the wet" and ''hugging the shore" The
effect, as might have been expected, has been
to close many establishments and to shorten
time or reduce force in others, the law Of self
protection being strongly implanted in the
breast of mankind generally. Viewing the
distress wrought it is not probable that the
administration will intensity it by unquali-
fiedly indorsing the policy that caused it.
More than likely there will be Representatives of
the protective idea in the Cabinet, and if not
it will not let the party commit suicide to
please men like Watterson, Morrison and
Hurd

committed to their hands, These gentlemen
are old and respected citizens. They are

where confidence is the first essential We

longer, seemingly willing captives at the
wheels of the whisky and beer wagons of the
liquor power. All they have and are as citi-
zens, as husbands as fathers, as property
holders, and as tax payers, is vitality bound up
in the supremacy and maintenance of law.
They cannot afford to be parties to willful
and persistent transgression of any part of it.
They have openly and VIGOROUSLY bargained
with law-breakers, compounded crime and
misdemeanor. How can they expect the con-
sequences to be trammeledP If men with
oaths to execute the law willfully arrange for
its violation, who shall set bounds to the dis
astrous consequences, as certain to ensue as

against the thirteenth amendment. In
other words, he was in favor of maintaining
human slavery, with all the degradation
that was heaped on colored men, all the awful
pollution that was forced on colored mothers.
1t is sickening to witness the spectacle of this
man sinking away from his infamous record,
made in the expectation of personal profit Oh
account of his subserviency to the party lash,
or made in the still more infamous belief in
the righteousness of human slavery Through
the political slime Of years he has crawled up
to the vice-presidency. Are his garments
white today Has he won the gratitude
of the colored racer Has he on
any occasion dared to say that the "natural
rights" of the colored man shall be respected

dared take such stand against his party2
What is Democratic guaranty worth2
Thomas A. Hendricks voted against the thir-
tenth amendment two years after Repub-
lican President had freed the slaves This
same man voted against and worked against
the adoption of the fourteenth and fifteenth
amendments, writing letters urging their re-
lection by the State of Indiana. In his ban
quet speech at Shelbyville in February 1868,
MIR. Hendricks gave utterance to such senti-
ments as these
''Our Union cannot be restored with fra
ternal relations among the people North
and South until Aboitionism is baried-never
again to be resu1rected."
This was the sentiment of Mr.. Hendricks at
time when Republicans were shedding their
blood in behalf of human freedom, and every
man fighting for human slavery was Demo
GRAFT. Again he says;
''The last browning act of this Congress is
to be the enactment of law to organize $780,
600 negroes into regiments. Every
man who votes for that bill, and the President
when he signs it, offers direct and gross in
suit to every man in whose veins flows the
blood of our race-an insult that the proud
men of Indiana will not forgive. A voice
Kill all the niggers.] [Applause.]
"You may hear the prayers in your
churches; your sons may go out to the battle
field, but your country is not te.besFestored as
it was until Abolitionism is Buried never to
be resurrected."
In 1866, when the fifteenth amendment
was under consideration in the Senate, he
said;
eve do not let them vote, and unless you
compel us to do it, we propose never to do
it, We do not want to make all the
colored people voters am free to say that
do not. L do not want to make any Of them
voters"
AT every step Mr.. Hendricks has opposed the
advancement of the colored man, and in every
step he has been in harmony with his party.
He opposed the Emancipation Proclamation.
He opposed the Thirteenth Amendment.
He opposed admitting negroes to citizenship,
opposed giving them the ballot and even allow
ing them the poor privilege of riding in street
cars. His patronage of them, now that they
have the ballot wherewith to affect the per-
sonal interests of Thomas A. Hendricks, ought
to put him far beneath even the contempt
of dignifed, self respecting colored men.

$25, 900 toward carrying on the work Of quar-

we expect 100000 from Congress, which
will leave $50, 900 to be raised by the general
public. Congress might as well pay the whole
bill, if it pays any of it. The public can af-
ford to raise 100000 as we'll as it can the

THE Boston Journal thinks 'they have a
queer way of doing things out in Indiana, in
view of the fact that 50, 100000 have been
appropriated to build State-house, and that
the prospect is that the cost will be $130, 900
less than the appropriation. That is what is
expected; but the building is not yet COM
pleted, and a big pressure will be brought
against the next Legislature It is Demo
cratic. And then, we don't know what sort
of building it will be, when it is done.

Mr.. JOSEPH HATToN, the well-known English
correspondent OF several Eastern papers, argues
at some length in recent letter that the Lon
don Punch is not only a moral and earnest paper,
but that it has always had pure tone of yenera-
ton for religion. Mr.. Hatton seems to labor I'M
der the singular misapprehension that Punch is
looked upon in this country as giddy and frivo-
lous, or even humorous sheet. On the contrary,
it is the firm impression gathered from such
specimens of the paper as have been scattered
about that Punch is nothing if not religious, if
deep solemnity is any token.

AS we have had occasion to remark before,
the Journal fails to see any justice in singing

active alliance with the Liquor League, and it
was the saloons which helped him to defeat
