IHE aREAT RooK Or THE YEAR.

There has been q wonderful demand
lately from Republicans for q fall and
reliable book Of the campaign. Books
are plentiful, but these do not respond
to the wants Of intelligent voters, who
naturally desire the best Il Is possible
to obtain, and It Is true that In this
description Of literature there should
be no second class. The best Is always
the one desirable. According to our
view, just the work wanted has bat
now been issued from the press OF
Messrs. Jones Brothers 4 Co., Of Sc.
Louis. Il seems to respond to the
wants Of all who wish to be fully In
formed. It is . perfect cyelopedia Of
political knowledge, comprising ex-
tended biographies Of Blaine and LO-
gan, a summary Of proceedings Of the
convention that nominated them, q
cOmpend Of political statistics, full his
tory Of the tariff legislation In the
United States, history Of all political
parties from the foundation Of the gov
eminent to the presenttime, tabulated
summaries Of facts and figures con
nected with every Presidential elsc-
ton, lives and administrations Of al
the Presidsuts-the whole beautifully
illustrated, and constituting q voters
handbook Of inestimable value. The

Democratic party.
We warn whoever may undertake
it that they will not only fail, bul
that they will Justly incur the re.
sponsibility of dragging our inter.
est, that needs friendly support
from both parties, into a position
that cannot but be disastrous to it.
We advise all our Democratic
planters to stand firm, and not to
be deluded by any projected alli-
ance of protected Industries" We
have amongst us Republican plant
ers, and some who are in the molt,
ing state, shedding Democratic
feathers to grow Blaine plumes.
We do not ask them, as planters,
to change their political principles
or affiliations. for a planter may be
IA Republican or a Democrat, as his
convictions lead him; but we, and
We think nine-tenths of the people
interested in sugar, object to any
body OF men, not elected or select
ed by us, assuming to act for us
and undertaking to speak for the
sugar interest. and compromise our
individual political preferences,
whether for the Democratic or Re-
publican party.
We ourselves, and a majority of
the planters of this parish are
Democrats. aud intend to support
the Democratic National ticket, and
we have authorized no one to speak
for us-anu wish no one to assume
to do SO.

Gov. Cleveland IS letter, accepting
the Democratic nomination for
President. is an ably written docu-
ment, and is commendable for its
brevity and simplicity. He accepts
the platform of principles adopted
by the party. He regards tue Office
of President as essentially executive
in character. He recognizes party
organizations as n necessity, but
protests against one party fasten-
Jag its control upon the country
aud perpetuating it by improper
methods. The following extracts
are especially commendable:
When an election to office shall
be the selection by the voters of one
of their number to assume for n
time a public trust, instead of his
dedication to the profession of poll
tics; when the holders of the ballot,
quickened 10y sense of duty, shall
avense the truth betrayed and
pledges broken, and when the suf-
frage has been altogether free and
interrupted, the full realization OF
II government by the people will be
ut hahd; and of the means to this
end, not one would, in my JUDI
ment be more effective than an
amendment to the Constitution dis
qualifying the President from re-
election.
| believe that the public temper
is such that the voters of the land
are prepared to support the party
which gives the best promise of adj
ministering the government in the
honest, simple and plain manner
which is consistent with its charac-
ter and purposes. They have learn
ed that mystery and concealment in
the management OF their affairs
cover tricks and betrayal. The
statesmanship-they require consists
in honesty and frusality, prompt
response to the needs of the people
as they arise. and the vigilant pro-
lection of all their varied interests.
Ii l should be called to the Chief
Magistracy of the nation, by the
suffrages of my fellow-citizens, /
will assume the dutia of that high
Office with solemn determination
t. dedicate every effort to the coun-
.ry's good. and with all humble re-
ia ce upon the favor and supper,
of the Supreme Being, who, I be-
lieve, will always bless honest hui
man endeavor in the conscientious
discharge of public duty.

So can'st thou wonder-thou most lovely

Should 1 have found thy witching

In every moment of distracting care,
Even thy slightest word hath power

Very nymph seem'st thou, with thy

In truth thy azure eyes WELD every

Versatile thy discourse whites away
Innumerable moments fraught with

None can compare with thee, sweet

Should cruel fate now part us, what

Even nations wealth would tire my

All-all is worthless, if have not you.

Dallas tTexas) Herald: Do the
Irish Catholics know that Mr.
Blaine was editor of the kennebee
Journal, a Know-Nothing paper,
when that party attempted to OK
clude foreigners and Catholics from
voting or holding office in this
country? Do they know lie was
the author of the Madigan circular,
and circulated it as Chairman oil
the State Republican Committee
which advised all honest voters to
oppose a gentleman for Congress
because he was a Catholic? Do
they know that in his letter of ac-
ceptance he declares he will favor q
movement to prevent Irishmen from
emigrating to this country? These
are plain truths, uncontroyerted
and undeniable.
