The Democrats who vote for Jackson for

President Arthur ordered q new pair
of trousers ON Monday. The celebrity
with which the human mind rscoYers
from the shock of disappointment is one
OF those beautiful provisions of nature
which go SO far toward mitigating the
ills OF life.
The Republican party seems to have
had q run on schoolmasters-Garfield,
Arthur and Blaine Mrs. Garfield was

St. Louis Globe Democrat: The Yam
kee Doodle states composing the solid
north have 24S electoral Votes-fortY-
seYen more than enough to make Mr..
Blaine president. The Dixie states
have 153 electoral votes. and the Demo
cratic nominee must get iOrty-eight
votes from Goods country" beFore he
can go to the white house. He can't
get them. That settles it.
The candidate for whom George VIM.
Curtis voted in convention got Al votes.
Mr.. Blaine received 544 on this ballot
and all of them afterwards. Mr.. ATthur's
final vote was 207. The total against
Mr.. Curtis on the ballot was TIC, against
Al. Curtis, himself, co0iesses that this
overwhelming msjority was honest.
The trouble with Ourtis lie he is not q

1t seems to talk as though Its advice
were much needed. This is startling
people in the north have been told that
the Democrats in the south, including
the great editor of the Louisville
COurrier-Jour were all pure and
spoiless.
The New Orleans PIcayune remarks
that the opposition of Harper's Weekly
is likely to win votes for Blaine in the
south, and adds: ION May IS. 1876.
Harper's Weekly said that Blaine's
statement In the house was 'as thorough
. refutation as was ever made, and, IN
the absence OF other evidence, leaves
him unspotted.' There has not been q
scintiils of other evidence all the evil
dence was out before that date.'' Is
The young Morning Call. of st. Louis,
hits out from the shoulder in this way
"St. LOUIS Is represented in congress by
three wooden heads, elected by the
Democracy of this city. They are fine
representatives of the class of people
whose chief idea of bubble improvements
is big stone wall built all around the
city, and who refer TO all those who
come here from other cities for the pur-
pose OF making Investments as for
eigners.'"
The Democratic state convention 10
New York did not satisfy anybody. The
St. Louis Republican takes It up
tenderly, thus: 1.-THE Democrats of New
York referred the question of tho tariff
TO the nationa; convention at Chicago.
This course was more prudent than he
rOic. 1t puts the question OF the cleo
ton Of q Democrat TO the presidency
above all other issues. This
Ia effect gives New York no more in
fluence in determining the character Of
the national platform than will be exer.
cised by the least powerful Of The states
We should have been glad to see the
Empire state declare decided policy
on the subject of the revenues" frj
