A HOpeful Repuhllcan. =

A Republican from Christiana Hun
dred writes to the REPUBLICAN under
date of the 9th instant as follows
l was pleased to see your editorial In
to.days issue, reminding the Republi-
cans, especially the leaders, of their
lukewarmness. Now is the accepted
time for every one to put forth their ut
most endeavors, and work assidiously
from now until the eve of election day,
and show the gentlemen of the Demo.
cratic persuasion, that we can and will
carry this county this time. With the
leaders now before us, and the promise
OF more TO follow after our nominations
are over, there is no doubt in my mind
that the weather has been cool and
pleasant for some of our friends now in
comparison to what we will make it for
them on election day, or rather when
they count the returns. Thanks to the
generosity of the gentlemen composing
the last Legislature. They very magnani
mously id not deprive us of the right TO
hold meetings, provided we go along
singly and quietly, and therefore why
not call meeting and show the opposi-
tiop that the Republican party in New
Castle County is not dead nor discour.

Outllye0.

Alas! we outlive everything in time,
Childhood, that land of shadows and
dreams, goes first.
The doubts and fears of youth no lon
ger haunt us. Before we knew our
power, or ever had measured exactly
the space we should occupy in the histo-
ry Of our time, aud the esteem of society
what an infnitude of these doubts and
fears distracted us!
We were 30 uncertain of ourselves, If
we were sensitive and without much
assertion; or If of the more sanguine
kind, we made 40 many bold fights
which ended in ignominious tumbles
into the gutter before we learned the
exact strength of our opinions, and
what We could do and what we could
not!
The invitations to high places which
gave ns 30 much anxious consideration
about the correct shibboleth.-the
triumphs which were pain rather than
pleasure because of shyness and mod. g.
ty-the bright, burning hopes which
seemed as if they would go on forever
like the sun and stars-and which ended
In smoke and smudge.
And then our love affairs
The sleepless nights We have had be
cause she was cross or he was cold be.
cause she flirted in the corner with Tom
and he gave his arm to the supper-room
to Janet
And in return, the wild, unreasoning
delight when the idol of the moment
graciously winked its precious eyes
and gave a sign OF understanding our
prayer
IL has all passed.
And we have outlived our love for
Tom, Or married Jane-which certain
cynics say comes TO much the Same
thing.
AT all events. if we have married, we
have outlived fear, and know the best
and worst of our portion.
In like manner, il we go on dong
enough, we outlive the proud JOY of tul-
filled ambition.

- Sensational story.

BOSTON, Sept. 10.-A sensational
story comes from Tapleyville, which
partakes somewhat of the nature of the
absurd delusions of witchcraft days. 1t
appears that young woman was about
to be married aud the wedding dress
had been made, when her betrothed
suddenly died. His intended bride was
overcome with grief and became q vic
tim Of morbid hysteria. The wedding
dress, handsome garment, had been
purchased for her by her lover. From
the date of his death, the young woman
came gradually to believe that the pres-
ence of the deceased was continually
about her and that the marriage was
still to be con. ummated. She assumed
such mental condition that her rela-
tiyes, becoming alarmed, caused the
dress to be sold to another girl in Tap
ieyVil.e for 800. No sooner was the un-
fortunate garment fairly transferred.
than its new posssssor began to bseome
q prey to similar morbid fancies, which
led her to believe that she would leadan
impure life, should the dress remain
longer at her home. The first girl in
the meantime recovered from her de-
mentia and was once more in her natu-
raj mental condition, when back came
the dress from number two, with the
message that she could keep it in her
posses sion no loE ger. On the return of
the garment to its original possessor the
symptoms returned with redoubled force
and again she saw the form of her in
tended husband constantly about her.
The residents, finding no sufficiently
strong minded female to take the gar
ment, turned it over to the police and it
is now in the Danvers Station. It ia
said that both girls have recovered.
The question of what should be done
with the dress has been left with law.

CHICAGO, Sept. 11.-Congressma
Finerty. in an article in his paper,
| Citizen, this week, says that, without
surrendering principle that he has
held, without accepting any party "col-
lar" without abandoning the people
who elected him, on the ground of
American citizenship and American
glory he declares his preference for
Blaine. He declares against Cleveland
because he has "proved himself an enc.
my of the working man, the ally of
monopolists, the self constituted Judge
Of the constitutioDality of measures In.
| tended to benefit the people, the bare
faced dodger of the vital question of
protection to American Industries and
the chappion of foreign interest on
this con tinent."
Mr.. Finerty says he will never be
found voting for any dubious American
who has the support of the Times. the
Telegraph, the Standard and the News,
of London. He supports Blaine be.
cause, in declaring openly for protection
against Europe, and free commerce
with American neighbors ON and below
our Southern frontier, he advocates that
true American policy, and the only one,
by which this country cannot only re-
main great, free aud prosperous, but
also by which she can spread her infiu-
ence on the two cis-atlantic continents.
and maintain the letter of that Monroe
doctrine, which says to Europe, Hands
off, and of which Blaine is the truest
and most gifted living exponent. With
him at the head of the nation, there
would be no fear that the Panama canal
should degenerate into European water
way.
Mr.. Finerty further supports Blaine
because of his vigorous foreign policy a
policy that the tragical end of President
Garfield curbed before 1T had attained
development. He also supports Blaine
because England abhors him, and be-
cause his election, although he Is not
firebrand or promoter of unnecessary
warfare, would be q slap in her face.
Finally, Mr.. Finerty declares against
Grover Cleveland becauses his nomina-
tion by the Democrats was direct in
suit, and so intended, to the backbone
OF the Democratic party North Of the
Ohio. and challenge to the manhood
and the political courage of eyery
American. of whatever race, who earns
his livelihood by honest labor.

why Not Adver t,se In Dun r,mes.

why MOT A0veY t18o In Du m T. I'm en-?
Since the very nature of an advei tise-
nlent Is to secure more business and
greater returns, 1t would seem "a if the
above question was practically unneces-
sary, yet our experience, thus far,
proves the opposite. There is u large
class of advertisers who, when dull
times approach, instead of exercising
the usual sagacity exhibited at other
seasons, tie an additional knot in their
purse strings, withdraw their names
from the public, and then sit down to
lament their sad fate and wonder why
$50 little is going on"
We have, on several occasions, en-
deavored to expose the fallacy of such q
course, and point out its ruinous con-
sequences, yet neither the example of
the wise and prudent who heed not dull
times, and consequently are not afflic.
ted with them like others, nor their own
III success, have as yet convinced them
Of their error
1t may be laid down az an indisputa-
bic fact, that IT In good times it is neces-
sary to advertise to secure business, in
dull times it is all the more so And
why S mrly because the fact of ad.
Vertising at all is proof conclusive that
SUCH d COURSE Will anu uOe5 Drlng DuS1-
ness hence, the more one patronizes
the press the greater will be his reve.
nue., and the more certain his success.
Many men are dependent entirely upon
advertising for success. Suppose they
were to refuse to advertise at all ?
Dull tunes" would be the inevitable
result, and no one would wonder at
their failure.
Some seasons of the year are far bet
ter adapted to certain particular classes
of advertising than others, still the
general advertiser can never afford TO
withdraw himself from the public even
for single day and the judicious one
never will. Persistency and energy are
always requisite, and their fruits can
be gathered by no other incentives,
much less by inaction and lamentation.
If, then, you find, gentlemen adverti.
sers, that business is dull or profits are
growing beautifully less, instead of
thrusting all the blame upon the poor
public, look closely to see if it is not
rather in your own self, and if convin-
eed of this, act as you would at any
other time and send us your advertise
ment, and then zee If it does not fully
carry out the truth of the above re-
markA
