THE IRISH AND THE GERMANS.

Views of Southern Democratic Organ Con-
corning Naturalized Citizens.
OgIethorpe (Ga.) Echo.
We shall always contend that when an Irish
man comes to America and puts on the raiment
of American freedom, he takes off the rags of
Irish oppression. We want him to wash IN
American water, with American soap, and have
every fragment Of his civil raiment cut from
American cloth. We don't want the mask OF
the oath of allegiance covering the face Of Irish
disloyalty and rebellion. If the Germans and
Irishmen want to reform their respective coun-
tries, let them do so at home, remain there for
that purpose and do thunder the sanction Of Irish
and German citizenship. We don't want them
to quit their country and take on The power,
freedom and independence Of ours, to reform
their own with. We don't want an Irish citizen
to dictate an American President, who, when
elected, shall declare war against their former
oppressors and fight battles with American
blood and treasure to redeem Irish liberty We
are willing to protect him while in the borders
of this government If any of the enemies of his
peace attempt to pursue him here. Germans
who sever their allegiance to the crown and
take the oath of allegiance to the American gov
eminent are American citizens, and ought motto
attempt to Germanize the home of their adop-
ton. We are willing to have hash for the Amer
lean dish, but we neither want all garlic for the
one flavor nor all potatoes for the one substance.
A few potatoes, a little garlie-very little. A
little hog will be better suited to the new coun-
try. The sooner the foreign element who seek
to shape our government on their ideas learn
that they have an odor of which they must
cleanse themselves before they can be really
neutral the better will their condition be. We
people of the South are strangers to these ele
ments in a political sense. We meet them so
cially and all is well with us. We only feel the
insolence as 1t crops out in national politics We
have, however, in our midst corresponding
element that of the negro who seeks to make
in dealing with him we are reminded of the ele-
ment under discussion. We are not likely, there
fore, to sympathize with the assumption Of for
eigpers, for such they are in heart and habit and
glance,

A Complicated Case.

CINCINNATI, Sept. 9-B. II. Evers, an English
man, was before United States Commissioner
Harper, to-day, on the charge of smuggling, pre-
ferred by M s. Baldwin and @ p. Urber, of
Chicago. He was released on his own recogni-
zance, Commissioner Harper intimating that in
his opinion an improper use was being made of
the United States authorities. EYerss arrest
was made Saturday or Sunday, on a telegram
from Chicago, which directed that his trunk be
taken in charge This was done, but afterward
the trunk was taken in replevin by Baldwin, of
Chicago who made charge of swindling. Other
parties-Geo. A. Phillips ". II. Marshal, Field
Pitson- asking for receiver of the lands Of
which Edward alias Byron H. Evers holds the
deeds, Judge Maxwell appointed Edward H.
Pelton receiver, and he also claimed the trunk,
which was said to hold the deeds. He opened the
trunk and took certain papers out. Evers has
caused a warrant to be issued for the arrest of
Baldwin and Furber on charge of perjury, but
has not been able to serve it Eyers says he
represents an English syndicate owning large
body of land in Mississippi; that Baldwin was
sub-agent who was discharged, and now seeks
to obtain redress in this way.

The Sum- in another editorial article, referring
to Mr.. Dorsheimers biography of Grover Cleye-
land, says sThe complaint of the New York
Times in reviewing this book is that Mr.. DORIS
heimer has not made enough of his subject On
the contrary if any fault is to be found, it seems
to US that he hasmade too much of him. Mr..
Cleveland Is intellectually very commonplace
man, of limited education and no large expert
ence of affairs, while of society and social
usages he knows next to nothing. Though he
has lived in Buffalo for many years, he has al
most no acquaintances there among the families
of the city. 1t is not too much to say that prob
ably he has never entered, in a social way, the
houses of half dozen families in Buffalo The
incidents in his career are very few, and some OF
them are very disagree6ble, These Mr.. Dor
sheimer has passed over with skillful literary
generalities, while on every point that should be
put to the credit Of his subject he has dwelt as
effectively as possible. Mr.. Dorsheimer is a
very skillful literary artist, well as states
man of capacity, and of most honorable record
of public service. He has made tho best show
ing practicable of Mr.. Clevelands biography.
The defects are all in the subject, not in the au-
thor The work ought to be praised for its solid
qualities rather than blamed

Our contemporary ought to understand that
the fault is entirely in the man. and not in the
newspapers. An incompetent, undeserving and
immoral candidate having been nominated for
the presidency, it becomes q matter Of public
duty that the facts should be made known, so
that voters may act at the polls with their eyes
open, and with shficient means Of arriving at al
intelligent judgment about their votes. When
ever an adventurer in politics is nominated upon
the strong issue Of superior purity and elevation
of Oh 'acter, while ALI the time he is a man of
GROSS and deprayed tastes and habits, it is to be

Enghehmen Not Favorable to Mr.. Blaine.

From the point of view of the American Re
publicans who support his candidature for the
presidency, Mr.. Blaine is patriot of the most
Incorporating kind. In him they recognize a
protector Of their native industries and the ad-
yecatA Of an eperoaching foreign policy. Not
unnaturally Englishmen cannot see Mr.. Blaine
in the same favorable light They have no sym
pathies with the American protective tariff; ard
when it is considered that Mr. Blaine's vigorous
foreign policy as described, includes the pro-
lection of Irish-Ameriean dynamiters, no more
need be said on that head.
