Rising at four or Ave, even in winter,
he often built his own fire, and then
worked upon his correspondence and
his journal. while the main part OF
the day was given to public affairs,
these being reluctantly interrupted
TO receive q stream Of visitors. In
the evening he worked again some
times going TO bed at eight or nine
even in summer. His recreations
were few-bsthing in the Potomac

as it was. For social life he bad

Rev. H. w. Beecher says: The

Rev. H. w. Beecher says: The
Republican party needs very strong
rebuke. It had q lesson when Cleve-
land was elected governor, it was a
rebuke of the methods adopted to
beat Cornell. 1 think it was very
wholesome lesson; 1 don't think it
will do any harm to try it on larger
scale and give Cleveland the presi
dency. He has made good COVER
nor, and he will be very likely to make
a good president. 1 had no personal
objection to Folger; 1 think he was
very fit man for the governorship,
but the time had come when party
methods should be rebuked 80 that
even politicians should feel the re-
buke. Well, 1 think they did. Great
good came out of the rebuke. We
are in a better political condition be-
cause of its occurrence. We may not
hit quite so hard this time, but /
think we shall hit hard enough to get
things political shaken up considera-
bly,, and that is what we want as Re
publicans. / don't go back on my
Republicanism one lots, but / do
want to see a change in the methods
Of the party and this everlasting cor
ruption that is constantly cropping
up put out Of the way. 1 think we
are on the night track for doing it.

The College Graduate.
Waterbury American.

Conventions may meet, Presidents
be nominated, booms be broken, but
it matters little to the young men
who are let loose every year, in in
creasing numbers, from the commence
ment platforms of the country's
various colleges. Presidential year
or no Presidential year, the end of
June means the same thing to these
young fellows Of bright hopes, stout
hearts small knowledg and less expert
ence.
And still they come, and still
paternal and maternal anxieties
centeris the mimic stage upon which
the make their exit, and to home cir
Gle the great events the newspapers
20 to such fuss about seem but un-
interesting trivialities. While friends
see 80 much the unfeeling newspaper
world thinks q little taking down will
do the young fellow good. So the
annual jokes, about the college grad
uate who wants to be q journalism
with big ~" and has to put up
with being q reporter with diminu-
tive "r," are trotted out and made to
do duty once more.
To the newspaper man the young
fellow with diploma is q conceited
ass, who thinks he can run the uni
verse, and who is in great luck II he
can find fve-dollar-a-week job.
Which is right, The newspaper man
or thegraduate 7 Both are generally
wrong. The young graduate knows
more and is less conceited than the
able newspaper man thinks; the
young graduate knows less than he
thinks he does, and is more conceited
than he is himself aware of. But
after all, the general run Of college
graduates are pretty good fellows at
bottom, little green and fresh, but
not nearly so much 80 as most OBJ
servers are inclined to think.

The Old Ticket.

The old ticket has been renomina
ted. Tilden is there by substitute,
for he undoubtedly prefers Cleveland
TO any other man, and Hendricks ia
there in person, hearty, vigorous and
apparently younger than he was eight
years ago. The nomination OF
Hendricks gives the ticket strength
that il could have got IN no other
way. Tho governor embodies the
sentiment of.the people in behalf OF
such rebuke Of the great fraud oi
'76, that the lesson may not be for
gotten. The crime will be recalled
with additional indignation through
out the campaign, and can not fail TO
have considerable effect upon the
result. The governor was by all odds
the most popular man in the conven-
ton. He will carry Indiana like a
whirlwind, and the whole country
will feel an inspiration in his candi-
dacy. The nomination is peculiarly
happy in its relations with Tammany
hall, Hendricks having been the
candidate of that organization for
the first position beyond all Others.
We beg to present to Kelly and his
compatriots our sincerest congratula-
tions. Cleveland is an excellent
man. The people Of Buffalo, who
knew him best had confidence in
him for many years. The people OF
the state have the utmost respect for
him, for he has striven to do his en-
tire duty as governor, and succeeded as
we'll as any man could. No democrat
can refuse to support him and still
be faithful to his professions and
party. Cleveland was the choice Of
the independent republicans far more
than any other man. This will certain
ly help him to considerable extent,
but not as much as the independents
believed. AS the lines are drawn
towards the campaign it will be found
that the friends OF the protesting
perfer to remain with
the old party rather than go else
where. The same rule will, however,
control thousands of protesting
democrats in this city, 80 that it will
be now, as heretofore, mainly con-
test between two great parties

The Prohibitionists held their
national convention at Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania.
Ex.-Gov. st. John of Kansas was
nominated as o candidate for the
presidency and VIM. Daniel Of Mary
land for vicepresident. The conyen
ton adopted lengthy platform
proclaiming their principles. They
oppose both the Republican and
Democratic parties, and charge them
with competing for the liquor infu-
ence and vote of the country. They
contend for tariff for revenue, the
government economically admins
tered and home industries incident
ally protected-that all money coin
and paper, shall be made, issued
and regulated by the general govern
ment, and be legal tender for all
debts public and private. They
contend also for woman suffrage and
for the abolition of the tax on
liquors and tobacco-as "the vices
of men are not a proper subject of
taxation"

New Orleans Exposition.

A portion OF the district and hon
orary commissioners 10 the Worlds
Exposition met in consultation a,
Austin on the 18th ult.
The meeting was presided over by
Commissioner Elliott, who delivered
quite a lengthy address, He said
the district commissioners had in
their zeal for the cause far surpassed
his most sanguine expectations, and
were doing splendid work for the
state. Some 10 or 20 county socie
ties had been organized. The exhib-
it on the part Of the ladies' of the
state, he confidently believed, would
eclipse anything ever before seen
here. He alluded to the work Of the
Dallas ladies, $50 strong, who were
doing their best in a spirit of gener-
ous rivalry to beat the ladies' OF Fort
Worth, as the ladies Of Galveston
were trying to surpass their sisters
of the Bayou city, and as he hoped
would be the case between the fair
inhabitants of Austin and San Anto-
MO. In Dallas the ladies are having
a complete suit Of fine furniture made
of native Texas wood. He spoke Of
the generosity of Galveston in offer
ing to put up fine building 80 that
Texas will have building of her
own, and in order to furnish apart
ments for state headquarters in ele-
giant style. The large firm of San
ger Bros. at Dallas, with princely
kindness, had donated $4,000 to this
end. Elegant carpets, costly furni-
ture and superb decorations. will
greet the eye of the Texan as he Wis
its the building set apart for the
Lone Star State. The railroads, too,
were not behiud in lending helping
hand, and it was announced with
great pleasure that the Texas roads
would carry all articles sent for exhi-
bition from this state and in the in
terest of Texas free OF charge and re-
turn them gratis also.
In addition to this aid, the press of
the state needed thanks for their
earnest advocacy of all measures like
ly to promote home interests and Sc.
cure for Texas leading place among
her sister states.
The appropriation of $4,000 was
not enough, for there was much to be
done and great expense involved.
The exposition has assumed larger
than men ever dreamed
of. Colonel Elliott, in conclusion,
expressed the hope that the county
associations would cooperate vigor-
ously in the work, as much depends
on their action.
Governor Ireland being present
was called on for a speech and began
by saying that he knew the assembly
didn't want to have a speech from
him. but he would briefly state few
points. He was gratiiied at the
that had been paid thus far,
and was well satisfied Texas would
take no secondary rank, but would
loom grandly to the front. He re-
GREETED, however, the small appro-
priation made, and wished it had been
much larger.
A resolution was, after much dis
cussion, adopted asking the railroads
TO give all honorary commissioners
passes, including the trip to New Or
leans. .ds r.
Resolutions were also adopted en-
lorsing and approving the course Of

The advocates of whiskey selling
call a prohibitory law sumptuary /;
and say it is wrong TO enact Sump-
tuary laws. If it is wrong to prohi-
bit the selling Of whiskey because it
is sumptuary, it is wrong for the
same reason to enact a law TO fine a
man for getting drunk. There is as
much authority and justice in an act
prohibiting the sale Of whiskey as in
an act prohibiting drunkenness.
