A Comparison.

There was time il the early history
of the government when an officer high
in public place thought it his duty to
avoid the bare possibility of suspicion
that he was using his Office for personal
aggrandizement. When John Quincy
Adams retired from the presidential
chair in 1870, his Massachusetts con.
stituency rendered him a congressional
seat. At about that time, with Jack
sons accession to the presidency, the
battle of the administration against the
Bank Of the United States was III full
progress. Mr.. Adams owned some o!
the stock of the bauk, and knowing that
as a member of Congress he would be
called upon TO vote with reference to the
renewal OF the banks charter, like an
honorable and honest man, he disposed
Of his stock at the earliest opportunity.
This was done three days before be took
his seat in Congress because, as he wrote
in litter at the time, as | might be

concerning the bank, and was favorable
to it, wished to divest myself OF all
personal interest in it,
Compare this purity of purpose that
Influenced the act OF Mr.. Adams with
the malodOrous conduct of Mr.. Blaine

MIR. Ditmar, young student OF tho

satisfaction than most professionals would
have done. He made two decisions which
were objected to. One was when he put
out Bradley on third strike, when the
Dali was foul tip. 1t was also claimed
that HoffOrd was declared out at second
when he was safe. The decisions caused
little fuss, however, and the game passed
