In the interest Of Justice.

Attention ig called to the statement
of facts on another page in relation TO
the charge made in yesterdays Repub-
lcan against Captain William II. Burke
of this city. That attack, involving as
it did not only a suppression OF 1acts
which would, if given in connection
with the charge itself, have illumined
its true character but also the gratui-
tous wounding of a high spirited ana
sensitive gentleman who is not now.
candidate for office and who is there
fore not before the public for criticism
Is aracteristic of the man who penned
It. and in Keeping with his habltuai
methods. All that we ask is that those
who read the accusation will in fair
ness also read the defense. Then let
the public judge.
As for the Scranton Republican
latest abuse of Mr.. Connell and Colonel
Ripple, that needs at this time no spec
ial attention since it is simply IL re-
hashing of oft-repeated ISLANDERS ut
tered by a man who enjoys. it would
seem. a certain inapproachable apti-
tude in the use of falsehoods billings
gate, braggadocio and smut. III the
public wishes to make comparisons OF
it's own between the public or private
records of Mr. Connell or Colonel Rip
pie on the one hand, and Mr.. Scranton
on the other it is doubtless sufficiently
familiar with the facts in the premises
to do this without assistance from The
Tribune. Todays primaries will afford
It good opportunity to give expression
to it's verdict in this issue; and we. for
our part, are entirely willing to submit
the case to that tribunal without fur
ther argument.

acrid criticism Of the London Times.
which In discussing the ambassadors
Edinburgh speech remarks that "as all
this amounts to calling in question the
wisdom of one-half of his countryEen.
and that the half which has been win
| ming largely az recent elections. it is
probable that Mr.. Bayard's remarks
are fairly described as injudicious.
He is held here in the highest
respect. and we all know quite
well that he did not really intend
to interfere at all with party contests
in America. At the same time il is
quite easy to understand the point of
view of the Republicans. who say that
an ambassador representing the whoie
nation ought not to offer observations
which make him the mouthpiece of one
section only. We should have been
greatly surprised had the representative
of any European power delivered such
speeches as those now in question; and
even in Mr.. Bayard's case there was
some little establishment. 1t seems. in
deed, that he has transgressed the rules
of his own diplomatic service. and that
q regulation signed by himself has ac-
tually been unearthed, which forbids
the very style of criticism in which he
has indulged.'
II would unquestionably be unwise
to renew in congress the silly talk
about impcaching Mr.. Bayard. That
would simply expose American diplo-
macy to new ridicule. But it is demanded
by important public considerations that
his open and indefensible indiscretion
should receive official censure. This Is
not so material with regard to Mr.. Bay
ard himself, for he soon will be relieved
from his present responsibility, as it is
with reference II the future Failure
to express official disapproval of his Of
fense would invite its future repetition:
and that is prospect which American
craftsmanship may well wish to avert.
-
Several able college professors are
wasting ink in the endeavor to nrove
that the Monroe doctrine. at the time it
was first formulated, didn' mean much
of anything. Suppose we gram that,
for the sake Of an argument. That
doesn't signify that we have no right to
make it mean something now. We are
not living in the past.

Congressman William A. Stone, of AL.
legheny, as is well known, Is Senator
Quay's first choice for something or other
and Colonel Stones friends say that tha,

will not be- very highly indorsed by Lieu
tenant Governor Lyon, who has ambition
in the same direction and thinks he is in
line OF promotion.

Some Democratic organs appear to be
unable to draw the distinction between
patriotism and jingoism. If these papers
had existed at the time when an eminent
American statesman gave expression to
the sentiment Our Country-May she al
ways be right: but right or wrong, our
country" they would forthwith have
dubbed him a lingo.

And the wine at the banquet will be
old wine; it will be very old wine; it
will be the oldest wine of Heaven; it
will be the wine that was trodden out
from the red clusters on the day when
Jesus trod the ~winepress alone. Wine
already more than 1S centuries old.
And no will deride us as to what
we were in this world. No one will
bring us our imperfections here,
our sins here. All our earthly
imperfections completely covered
up and hidden. Mephibosheth's feet
under the table. Kingly fare.
Kingly vesture. Kingly companion
ship. We shall reign forever and
ever. 1 think that banquet will
mean more to those who had it ard in
this world than to those who had it
easy. The banquet in David's palace
meant more to Mephibosheth than to
any one else, because he had been
poo and crippled and despised and re-
jected. And hat man who in this
world is blind will better appreciate
the light of Heaven than we who in
this world who had good eyesight
And that man who in this world was
deal will better appreciate the music
of Heaven than we who in this world
had good hearing. And those will
have a higher appreciation of the
Easy locomotion of that land who in
this world were Mephiboseths.

coming into port and the cap

people were so anxious to get
the tidings, he stepped out on
the prov of the ship and shouted to
the people long before he got up to the
dock, 'Freel" and they cried it, and
they houted it, and they sang it
through the land, Free! freer' So to-
day l would like to sound the news of
your present and your eternal cmanci-

Fifty years ago / stood on this ground.
What wond'rous change time hath
brought around.
Wonderful Stream, the river of time,
Makes wonderful changes in every cline.
Many, many sad changes have we seen,
As the fifty years did intervene.
Wars and pestilence in our fair land.
Hopes wrecked by Times destroying
hand.
l had come to this place to see once more
Had been fifty years since seen before.
came to look tue old graveyard DER,
To find the graves of friends gone before.
While looking over the graves around,
Found many graves sunkeu down.
Not a tombstone or other mark here
To tell the grave of friend once dear.
l searched about, but found them not.
How desolate seems this desolGte spot.
Not friend or other grave discover,
Whose this or that the sod doth cover.
What are these few old bricks we here
find?
Long ago placed round grave by friend
kind.
But now has no living friend. we trow,
Else this grave not SO neglected now.
A few stones here scattered about,
In this cemetery now turned out.
1t has fallen into strangers hand,
Who only care for it as their land.
Many our kind friends lie buried here,
While in the world to kindred dear.
Some layed here i father to rest;
Some a mother who the home so blest.
Brother and sister lay side by side;
In vain to find their graves here tried.
How many tears hath here been she'd,
While taking the last look at the dead.
How many hopes are buried here?
How many friends to some one dear?
And how many hearts with sorrow rent,
And grief to macy souls have sent?
Pint nou oil nnknoun in SiIanoa ciaon
While stars at night constant vigil keep.
The wbip-poor-will, liz song OF distress,
Lends to this spot more loneliness.
BY day the mournful cooling of the dove
Forest misunderstanding in trees above.
Beasts now roam ever this ground at
will,
Trampling the grass on this sacred hill.
Thus this graveyard is now trampled DER,
The resting place of dead known no more.
Not a friendly hand is left to Irvine
Love garlands round once q sacred
shrine.
Lexington here buried her first dead,
But many long years since then hath fled.
And cad recollections come to mind,
OF friends whose graves we cannot find.
But God knows the resting place OF all
Who sleep here beneath n dismal pail.
They shall break their tenements of
clay,
And come forth again to light of day.
II will be the resurrection then
Each friend will know each friend again.
Well meet again, as in days of yore,
To part again, we hope, no more.

Women are the real heroes of the
world. Thousands on thousands of them
endure the dragging torture of the ills
peculiar to w~omankind i'll the silence of
home. They suffer on and on-wecks,
months, years. The story of weakness
and torture is written III the drawn
features, in the sallow skin, III the list
less eyes, in the lines of care and worry
OH the face.
Unborn modesty seals their lips. They
prefer pain to humiliation. Custom has
made them believe the only hope of
relief lies in the exposure of examina-

Take ten cases of "female weakness"
and in nine of them 'loca1 treatment"
