Yesterday was emphaticauy Blaine day in

Yesterday was enphatically Blaine day IN
New YORK. and democrats win doubtless gather
from IT'S Incidents that the republicans VIII give
up New YORK state 10 Cleveland when the official
returns 50 declare, and not before. or the three
great demonstrations, the monster parade was the
least significant. as II was more in the line OF the
traditional political display. And the banquet
brilliantly successful as it was, takes second place
II the days events IL was the ministerial recep-
tiOn OF the morning which constituted the chief
feature 1t Is very easy 10 underestimate the effect
upon the church-gOing population OF a large body
OF clergymen formally endorsing the republican
ticket IN the name of religion, morality and the
sacTednesS OF home This action may not have
much influence In the clubs but in other quarters
where votes are prayers, the resolutions will have
some weight.
But the pIOpriety and even the expedlercy Of
such demonstrations may well be questioned one
great pledge OF the safety OF political fnstitu
tons IS jealous separation OF church and state.
Yesterdays reception was held oStensibly in the
naine or religion and morals but IL was essentially
political; and the interest, dangers and evil of such
q demonstration were shown at the very close OF
the remarks OF DR.. Burchard. the spokesman OF the
deputaton, who declared that the antecedents of
the democratic party have been rum, Romanism
and rebellion" IL needs great political sagacity
TO the peru OF such utterances and TO Mr. Blaine,
OF al men, just II this time, they must have been
unwelc0mc. Mr. Blaine has indeed dwelt earn
rebellion, but he has distinctly put aside rum
ga local ISSUE" and, so far from antagOnzing what
the Protestant divine alluded TO under the Often
siye name OF - ROmanisnl,' he has had kind word
for those who worship God in the communion of
the Catholic church.
On the other hand, Mr.. Beecher's ELUSIVE cham
pionshtp OF Gov Cleveland and his morals has
doubtless been more embarrassing than serviceabie
To the democratic presidential candidate.
Assistant Secretary Co0ns recent action to the
effect that clerks who persistently run into debt
and make no proper effort toward discnarging
their just obligations shall be recommended for dis
mssal. is strictly in the line Of policy and practice
laid down While in Office by President Jackson, who
not understood 10 be civil service refOrrner,
within the modern meaning OF that term. The
writer OF this paragraph has in his possession an
account made out against an employee OF the
Treasury department In the year 1886, upon the
back OF which is the following endorsement in the
unmistakabe chirOgraphy or "Old Hickory him

exalted as to forbid him from listening To COM

A BABBARoUs SrKPMorHER.-Mrs. So
phie Hinton, OF Monee, Will County,
Illinois. Was arrested last Friday by
Officer Williams, of the Humane Socie-
ty. She is charged with cruelty to a
child. She 10 stepmother to little boy
two years old and girl five years cid.
Recently the little girl begged for food
at different houses in the village, and
teld such tale of cruelty at the hands
OF Mrs. Hinton that it led to an investi-
RatioH az to the condition of the boy.
The little fellow was found locked in an
clubhouse, where he had been placed by
the mother. He Was naked and almost
dead frem starvation, and 90 weak that
he could not stand. Officer Williams
says the chlld's body was literally oov-
cred With scars and bruises, while
gaping wounds showed a recent beating.
The little one was otherwise horribly
manned, in q manner that cannot be
described. He had been so long with
out food that he had eaten the grass
which grew under the side of the shed,
and the bay which formed his bed on
the ground. Hs was taken to neigh
boris house, where for a moment he
was left in the doorway. A dish sat ON
the ground near by, out of which the
house dog fed. Seeing some scraps in
shis dish, the little fellow crawled to il,
and, when found a moment later, he was
ravenously eating what the dog had re-
fused. Seeing the lady of the house
coming toward him, and probably
thinking she was his fiendish step
mother, he made a feeble outcry ana
raised Ais small hands rs if to ward of
blows. Herman Hinton. the child's
father. works on the railroad, and comes
home but once month. On his CON-
plant the woman was arrested. At her
hearing before Justice Estabrook, of
Monee, Mrs. Hinton said the child's
father had told her to get rid of the
child, and she had taken this way Of do
ing it. She came from Germany a few
years ago. She is the mother of two
children, whether by a former husband
or not is not known. The little boy is
almost idiotic, and DR.. Schroeder, of Mo-
nee, says the child will never recover
from its barbarous treatment. Mrs.
Hinton was held for fur her hearing in
$500 bonds to await the result of the
ohild's injuries.

TuDon uARRiAeH.

The narrative Of the various propoesis
for the hand Of Queen Elizabeth forms
an instructive page of history. IL throws
hight not only on the social uauners and
Customs OF the day, aud on Eiizaoeth's
Own character, bat on the foreiEa policy
of England and the state Of affairs on
the Continent. The rddors. from first
90 last, made more ado about their mat
rimonial relations than any other family
that ever sat ON the English throne.
There was hardly year In the century
that followed Henry Wis accession
when the marriage QUESTION. ia one
form or smother. Was not prominent in
the minds of English politicians, If not
OF the English people. Dynastic mar
rlaees. discussed or contracted on purely
political grounds, we're the order of the
day. The great monarchies of Europe
we're establishing themselves upon the
ruins OF feudalism. and matrimonial
alliances were the favorite means adopt
ed for the consolidation of empires
Henry VII. followed the example set
him by Ferdinand, by Maximilian and
by Charles VIII. Territorial objects
could aot we'll have been 30 prominent
In the mind of his successor, and the
passions of Henry VIII. were gener-
ally too strong for his political ambi-
ton.
His daughters found az great difficulty
IN discovering suitable husbands as he
did In supplying hiDself with suitable
wives. The unfortunate example of
Mary doubtless had the effect of max
ing Elizabeth more cautious. More
nearly resembling her grandfather than
her father IN this, as in several other
respects, she had no scruple in keeping
some of her suitors on the rack almost
as long as Catherine of Araeon had
suffered from the selfish intrieues of
Ferdinand and Henry VIII. Elizabeth
was as devoid of heart as she Was of
religion; but, in justice to her, il may
probably be allowed that none of those
whose so called affections she trified
with suffered more than a political dis
appointment. The mutual protestations
recurring on every occasion were as hol-
low as the state ceremonial with Which
