Gently returned from CALIFORNIA; De
mocrat OF the straightest and. strictest
sect, by the bye i HERALD plenipo-
potentiary yesterday gained some
points indicative of the way things are
going in the Golden State, points which
the Associated Press never mentions,
because, perhaps, it forgets them. The
gentleman referred to says the Demo
cratic party was ne:er SO we'll organized
or in better fighting condition than
now. Cleveland clubs are numerous
and there are daily accessions to them;
Butler will have a very small vote, the
working men realizing the necessity of
making the best use of their ballots and
not throwing them away upon man
who stands no chance of election, and
being unwilling to cast them for can
didate who pays the laborers in
the coal mines OF West Vir-
ginia in which r he is interested.
the startling sum Of sixty cents per
day The Prohibition vote will amount
to nothing, and the contest will be as
nearly as possible squarely between the
Democratic and Republican parties.
Our informant, while not permitting
himself TO be unduly influenced by his
natural desire for the success of Cleve-
land and Hendricks, is confident that
the electors representing those gentle
men will cast the vote of the State, and
that their majority viii not be uncer-
tain or equivocal.
One would think from the dispatches
daily transmitted to and fro through
the country, that Blaine was the only
man who stands any Kind of chance
in the race. The difference between
such reports and those Of reliable OBJ /
servers everywhere is somewhat note
worthy, and suggests the point as to

THE LIBERAL cosrMrrrm,

The Liberal Territorial committee
held meeting in this city yesterday,
and went through the usual fo.malites
pertaining to such proceedings, the
principal business transacted being the
calling of convention for the purpose
of nominating candidate for Delegate
to the Forty-ninth Congress.
There can be nothing demanding CEN
sure in all this; there is but little in it
deserving of comment even. Perhaps
we ought to say'that it is really crafty
ing to ,havemen who at least claim to be
skilled in the practical usuages of the
country array themselves againstethe
local majority, since it is only by OPP
position that men On either side are put
upon their mettle, and that which is
within them in the way of good or bad,
as the case may be, developed. The
dull monotony OF being unopposed
never brings out many of those traits
in the human character which might be
made beneficial not only to those OPP
posed, but to the opposers and their
kind.
Let the Liberals act as q party of men
gifted with intelligence and freighted
with what they consider mission of
great consequence to their fellow men in
this Territory; let them select an able,
patriotic and public-spirited man as the
one for whom their ballots shall be cast
let them adopt as their platform decla-
ration of principles embodying their
honest sentiments and convictions as to
what should and what should not be
done; without abusive or unnecessarily
severe language; and then we will have
a good, honest, straightforward con-
test, and the better man OF the two con.
testants will be apt to win

BLAINE's LETTER.

Mr.. Blaine's letter explaining his mar
riage is document which inspires but
one sentiment in the breasts of right
thinking people-that of sincere regret.
That the gentleman should thus tacitly
if not actually admit that his family
affairs were not only irregular, but are
matters of public concern in connection
with his candidature for the Presi-
dency, is to stoop very low indeed; and
to refer to the Dissertation of his sons
grave in such connection is only bid
for popular sympathy deserving IN
mitigated contempt If there were
those so lost to humane instincts and
common decency as to perpetrate so
vile an outrage over the sepulchre OF
the dead, the act was little less das-
tardly than that OF the father making
use OF it at such n time, when
his expectation by doing so is
plainly the gaining Of votes. Mr..
Blaine's family affairs are a mat
ter OF no concern TO the public, SO
long as the family itself IS satisfied; the
unearthing of any such thing by any
man or any newspaper is one of the
most uncalled-for and reprehensible
things Imaginable, and by.common con-
sent was referred to the court where the
action for libel is to be tried. But for
him to permit his domestic relations
and ,aisfortunes to be paraded through
the country as campaign material
shows that he is an unfit man to occupy
any position OF public trust, unless, in
deed, his friend, the Congressional
dude, William Walter Phelps, "gave
him away" by publishing confidential
letter-a circumstance not at all proba-
Bile. In that case, Mr.. Blaine will be
able to repeat with emphasize God
save me from my friends" at-

THE MEMPHIS Scimitar, said to be a
Democratic evening daily paper, has re-
moved the Democratic National ticket
from the head of its editorial page, and
refuses to further support Cleveland
and Hendricks. The Scinitar says:
The Democratic party has utterly failed to
qualify itself for the control and administers
ton of the affairs OF this great republic Con-
sentative men in the party south worked
with the utmost vigor to nationalize the
party, and put it on the line OF, progress The
efforts of these intelligent gentlemen only
retired them to q back seat The party In
the south has drifted under the Influence of
the old secession element. The old leaders
who, either in ignorance or from selfish am
bition, betrayed the south and involved her
in the ruin of a civil war, are again to the
front.
There are some important matters of
detail lacking For instance the cost Of
making the removal spoken OF is not
stated; the amount paid the Sc:a,itar
is not even limited at. and the probable
effect Of the .Tcimitar's detection is no.
suggested.

Don't Find Fault.

To be able 20 show the failures OF

YES. Any one can tell when a train is
off the track, but every one cannot put
it back. 1t requires skill and patience
to do that. A child can burn building
which required years of patient toll to
construct. There are those who fiatter
themselves that they enjoy high de-
gree of piety, because they oppose the
popular religion OF the day. But infidels
do as much as that. If you would give
ev idence of genuine New Testament pi-
ETY., you must build up as well as tear
down. When you show others that they
are wrong, show them also more ex.
cellent way. If existing church organi.
cations fail to do. their work, they
sh ould assist In establishing better.
You may shun responsibilities and
take things easy by standing outside
and finding fault, but the temple Of
God will never 60 up In that way. II
you do not like the scaffold on which
your brethren are building, instead OF
tearing theirs down build up o better

A week or 30 ago q well known bust

When the Wilmington man entered

gentleman, who looked at him smiling

of the conductor If he was acquainted
