The recent snow storm which visited
this vicinity, was probably the worst one
of the season. It is pretty generally
conceded that more snow fell during its

greater than two inches. The atmos-
pheric dampness seemed to have hump

not heard of any great loss. Mr.. Hat

Blaine's Policy a Peaceful One.

Chicago Tribune.
Blaine proposes by peaceful means to supplant
European influence and trade wherever he can on
the American continent by the influence and trade
of the United States. 1t is easy to understand
why the English should deplore the successful in
auguration of such policy and would therefore
prefer to see Mr.. Blaine defeated. But the very
same reason which the English have for opposing
his election is the very best reason in the world
why the Americans should elect him. England
may be the loser by Mr.. Blaine's policy, but the
United States will be the gamer. Mr.. Blaine's
ambition does not contemplate conquest, nor ac-
QUESTION of territory, nor complications of any
kind with foreign Governments. But he looks
forward to the development of more intimate Pc.
ltical and trade relations among the nations of
the American continent. England is not to be
driven out by the sword, but the geographical ad-
vantages and material resources of the United
States are to be developed and improved by Gov
eminent support to the end that the people of this
country may enjoy them in the fullest extent
England may not like that prospect; but is there
anything about it which is calculated to excite
the opposition of the American people?

The Men Who Will Get Hurt.

NeU York Tribune
Of all Democratic blunders, it is the strangest
and the biggest to suppose that the Republicans
shrink from an overhauling of the campaign of
1875. The truth is that the Republicans are
ready for that entertainment at any time They
would like nothing better than to have occasion
to deal with that business thoroughly. There are
men in the country who understand full we'll that
the true inwardness of the campaign of 1876 never
has been known to the public, and never will be,
probably, unless the Democrats themselves invite
d. an opening of the old mine. Republicans would
particularly like to consider what frauds were
committed in that campaign, and by whom; what
sums of money were spent, and for what what
forged and false returns were made, and at whose
instigation; how many electoral votes the Demo-
cratic party really secured, which had behind
them votes of the people; what votes were stolen,
and what attempts to steal votes were made, by
cipher dispatshss asSEst III
ed, and why it failed. Whenever that investiga-
ton is opened again, if ever, it will brand with
unutterable and inefaceable disgrace the FORE
heads of some men who do not now dream that
thew are in danger

How Public Men Are Slandered.

Brooklyn Times.
The Rev. j. G.. Butler, D. D., of the Memorial
Lutheran church, Washington, one of the Oldest
pastors in the Capital and for six years Chaplain
of the House of representatives, writes as follows
in the Lutheran Observer:
"For six years, during the Speakership of Mr..
Blaine-Mr. Logan being prominent member of
the House-I had the honor of serving in the
Chaplaincy of Congress. That Mr.. Blaine is a
scholarly gentleman, an able and brilliant Amer
lean statesman, a born leader and organizer, and
a magnetic man, everybody knows who has OBJ
served or met him. How we'll I remember the
worn, pale face of Mr.. Blaine, as we bore the re-
mains of the fallen President from the Capitol
Then he supposed that he had retired forever to
private life. But the people again summon him
to the front. He is man of the people. Gen.
Logan, with his great war record behind him,
stands for courage, patriotism, integrity, and for
his thorough devotion to his convictions of right
and duty"
These gentlemen will scarcely know themselves
in the pen portraits of the American press to be
drawn between this and next November. The
SANDERS heaped upon our public men are humilia-
ting to all right thinking people. None of us are
immaculate. We Americans are given to speak
ing evil of our rulers and especially of those who
are chosen as candidates for high places by their
-~SSPecuVe parties. Some of us have lived long
enough among public men ut the Capital to dis
count very heavily the average mud finger-
These gentlemen are honorable and noble, as well
as able and patriotic, ana worthy the confidence
of their fellow. citizens

Lincoln did not serve his time out, jackson was

EJudge Kelley, of Pennsylvania, sailed for
Europe this week to spend couple of months,
but will return in September to take the stump for
Blaine and Logan. He is deeply interested in the
campaign, of which he thinks the tariff will be the
decisive ISSUE and he has no doubt that it will re-
suit in brilliant Republican victory. Abiding
to the despairing cry for Tilden, Judge Kelley
says: "These extraordinary jealous Democrats
remind me of the Scots who carried their general at
the head of their forces after he had been killed.
from fear that If the fact of his death should be-
come generally known the army would become de-
moralized."

pay and emoluments from the time he was court
martialed, after the battle of Bull Run. Gen.
Logan, Republican candidate for the Vice-Presi-

of Gen. Fitzpatrick, and the Confederate cavalry
corps under Gen. Stuart This was the first reg
ular Resulted disastrously to the rebel
arms-Stuart being completely defeated and
routed, losing heavily in killed, wounded and
prisoners. The Union troopers also captured
several rebel battle-fags, many stands of arms,
horses, etc, as trophies of their nrowess
