The BLAINE HlPPopRoME.

Aside from any political or partisan
reasons or preiudices, we regret to see
Mr.. BLAINE making an exhibition of
himself In campaign hippodrome.
We shall regret to see MIR. CLEVELAND
attempt to do the same undigniied role
II ho undertakes to swing the circle.
II is an old tradition founded in rea-
son and suggesting its propriety and
wisdom ut once that the exalted posi-
ton of the Presidency should seek the
man. 1t does not look seemly in men
who aspire to the Whte.houso to work
and scramble for It after the manner of
professional politicians. 1t looks rs il
they were wanting in that dignity, that
imposing craftsmanship, that grand
personal equipoiso that ought to distin-
guish Presidents. Tho people ought Ia
call upon tho man, not tho man upon
the people.
1t Is all well enough for BUTLER t.
run around tho country and exhibit
himself. He Is never likely 10 be any
thing moro than popular free show,
and species of the ward politician OF
u large scale simply. No sense ofpop
ular proprioty would be shocked at any
thing that such an old, chronic dema
goguc might do.
1t is in keeping with BLAINE's charao
ter and past, indeed, that he should do
scend to demagogical campaigning
from the ear platforms and lie abou
every little county or hamlet where
the train happened to stop, but h,

ONE Of the most brazen pieces Of eff
lrontory attempted during this cam
paign is the effort to deceive the people
with the convention now in session in
Cincinnati as being composed of Irish
American Republicans. The delegates
from this State are types of nearly all
others who compose it. GEN. MALLoY,
an Old-time Republican, who never
voted the Democratic ticket, Federal
office holder, and who has very little ii
any Irish blood in his VEINS, is the lead
ing delegate from Texas, and his name
Is mentioned prominently in tho dis.
prtches from Cincinnati. Tho convcn-
ton was called only for the purpose of
decciving the Irish, and winning Il few
of them over, if possible, to the support
Of BLAINE and LOGAN. Its object is too
transparent to deceive anyone.
