After this they will, perhaps, see that even' where the white men of all parties are 1 alike bent upon engrossing the omces, it ia a matter of tital concern to them 1 that the laws should be made'and ad ministered by their - political friends, ( rather than by those whose political creed is embodiedain the maxim that "this ia a while man's government."

It urges several forcible reasons in sup port of iU suggestions, but. one cannot fail tube amused to notice the sem- : blaike of childlike simplicity and innocence assumed b7 this' ( expe rienced old diplomatist of the quill. Do but attend for a moment: ' s "There are but two ways of conduct-, irig an important political canvass. One is by secret manipulations -by -going about , in private among capital ists, monopolists and speculators and ' raising a big campaign fund, and by the skilful distribution of a number of new two dollar bills. 'l'he other is by open, public aud joint debate," etc. As if a joint canva-sa ou the stump would dis, J pense wilh the trickery, manipulation and corruption of tho managers who work bchi ml the scenes! : As regards the campaign in Ohio, we heartily concur with the Herald in fa voring a mode of discutisiomwhich will give all possible publicity to the princi ples, precepts and purposes of the Re publicans of that state. But it is far from, being a fact that these political debates before the people ' minister to the geuuine enlightenment or Improve merit of the hearers. Almost erer member of an audience . collected for such an occasion resorts tor the place of meeting as the devoted partisan of oae of the speaker, resolved in advance to holdup the hands of his favorite In every conceivable way aad Woeglect no stratagem which will operate, to the prejudice, of "the other aide.'"

A wtoui danger aad abuse connected with these public debates is the ten dency to identify cause and speaier, to transfer to ono the virtues, or fasten on it the innrwitiei belonging to the 6tb er. We learn "how aw ful goodness Is' her port, how lofty aad 'sublime, waea upheld by some "chief of the eloquent war," but even virtue may stand abashed under the bold invectives of a Voltaire or aa logersoll, while uncer brilliant champkmahip tie will even prrow haugaly and tare u out of counten ance All will concede the unfairness of jwdgiog a cause , by the ability of its ripcoeeUie aay easst but tt is signal ly wroo ana ds3;eroo , to coasait a vital pyUUcal, issue to the pn4eioa ci an otkajrpueets.

But does not thu "prove too much." If it is the natural duty of people to continue the same surroundings and condition in which they irst found themselves, then what we have considered tbe barba rous delusiveness of the Chinese is really a national virtue. Finally our friend, lapsing into- poetry, which is the proverbial anti-thesis of truth, calls upon bhakspere's mighty sHf to aid him, but he should have remembered that the thrifty bard was himself "spa cious in the possession, of djrt," and willing to say the best for the rent es tate of England, not forgetting to men tion its safe insular situation. But se riously, we dfd not know that it was customary with Britons to await inva sion. In the past they have, for the most part adopted that wiser policy which regards a timely attack as the best of all defences. But cow, thete parliamentary committee, by a vote ot 6 to 4, disadvise the establishment of additional means of access to France, while the Chamber of Deputies of the latter country, nothing fearing,' urge with natural eagerness and impetuosi ty the immediate construction ef a con necting bridge or tunnel v The political symposium arranged by the New York Times, at which "covers were laid" for four hundred, gives au unusual Interest to the "mklsumer number" of that candid and able jour nal. The question diseuaaed by tie three hundred and more citizens, who accepted the invitation to this fesbt of reason was the preference of the peo ple, the great body of the political voting yeomanry, Republicans and Democrats respectively, as to tbe next presidential candidate. The Tiuitu fe licitates itself that it has got lo the bot tom of the matter; that it has addressed its questions to those best -qualified to answer by their knowledge of the facts and by controlling inducements to speak the truth. Tbe Tunes opines that these sages of politics "cannot.afford" to an swer incorrectly at the expense of their own reputation for sincerity and sa gacity. But it must be. remembered that they only ( (or chiefly) desire to maintain that reputation among those party friends whose good opinion they value which, for the most part is best' Accomplished by pandering to partisan prejudice and interest- And so; with a wink, "sly, devliah sly," to his political pals, we may occasionally rind the corre spondent sitting down and making capi tal as he imagines at least jut of such a great and memorable occasion. As to the estimate of popular seuti meats in other stales we cannot speak, but the Democratic statement of Kcpub- ncan prejuuices in ionn Carolina is a sample, the work is sadly .deficient in ability or honesty, or both. Nothing but malignity of the deepest dye could rep resent the controlling element in our state as being K?publicao oftici vis held together by the cohesive power of pub lic plender and centered on General Grant as the representative of the "the spoils system."

But alss, the exigences of politics know not conscience. With the growing 'boom" in favor of Mr. Tilden, tbe great American ring-smasher, comes the necessity of the contrast,. as rr arked as possible, in the conduct of officials on the Republican side, here is to be the great off-set to the Be publican advantage on the tariff ques tion, and, in the face of discrediting circumstances which in an 'indifferent matter would at once determine the Sun againat this ill-concocted slander, the ingenuity of the editor is exercised to its utmost to give coherency and probability to the story of this accom plice blackened by his confession, an acknowledged adept in fraud, and be trayer of his associates, who waits un til the lips of his refuter are sealed in death before he gives utterance to his lies. Not long ago the Democratic press was overworked in lauding the zeal and integrity of Garfield and McVeagh in bringing to justice "the star route thieves;" for .then such start ling developments of "radical rascali ty'' were to bo made as would gratify the greediest of parly scandal-mongers. But, lo, the "powerful rogues are ac quitted! aud entirely overlooking what wou'd have beeu the foolhardy audaci ty of thcae officials in pursuing crimi nals who held iu their hands the life aud death of their accusers, this .very same press are now the most busy coad jutors of the Mar Jioule defendants in fastening the origfaiuation of their crimes on those public prbsecitions w hose feat I ess v i rti'.J,bcy h ad j nfluenced to such lofty tteiuper io the past! fTbat Mr. Dana should have given currency to a story so silly and incredible as that which he has ; been formulating for I)or8ey ia ni alter which every friend of hia uiut lament, not only for its immediate effect; but also for Its exam ple.

It affects every kind of trade and basines; if comes directly home to every merchant and manufacturer, every mechanic, every farmer, every every laborer of every kind. How is it met by the parties? No one needs to " be told where the Republican party stands. The declar arations of its platforms from the first moment of its existence are all comis tent, clear, plain and explicit. Every man who reads them can understand what they mean. There has never yet been any occasion for any candidate of the party in his "keynote"- speech to interpret" ' or explain them'. "All who read may understand, but there ia no necessity to read 'party declarations to understand where the the lwepublicau party stands on the tariff question. 'V Labor in Europe. is every where from one and a half to three times cheaper than here.' Tbecouat quence is that we cannot compete with that kind of labor uuleawe reduce -our labor to the same level. The Re publican party is not willing to do that. The laborer in this country is a part of the governing power. He is a voter. He has a voice in the government. Aside, therefore, from all humanitarian reasons, we. want Lira to have a chance for self-elevation. We want . him to eat meat and be comfortable. We want him to gather knowledge and be kooU citizen, love his country, and be able and willing to take care of it. Aud for this reason it ia that we say if we cannot go into the markets of the world without being subjected to au unjust and degrading, competition, we will make ourselves ' independent of thosn markets by making markets , of our own. Instead of reading our raw cot ton across the ocean to be there manu factured , and sent back to us, we will have cotton mills here, Wc will mine our own cost, develop our own materi als, manufacture our own iron and steel, build our own railways! with our own products, and thus have, division of labor, diversity of employment home markets and domestic commerce. This has been the policy of the Republican party in the past; we intend to coutinu.e in the future. The wisdom of it is best known by its results. ( Under its influ ence the material prosperity of the country has been men that it is abso lutely without a parallel except in the political growth we have enjoyed dur ing the same period. Whea the Dem cratic party went out of power, the credit of this nation had been so im paired that sit per cent government securities coald be sold in the market of the world only-with difficulty, even t ruinous rates of discount; but' to-day our securities stand more ' than three per cent.1 higher in the san;e markets than those f Eogtaod. ' - " . Bat) where stand our .Democratic friends in regard to this matter.' There was a lime in the days of the old Dem ocracy waea they did not jheaitate to declare squarely for absolute free trad. In 1876, aad again ia 1SS0, they said they waated a tariff for revenue only. In 1S76 there were other instics iiTo'vcd in the campaign. Out ia that wa made the leadiag imae. It was thvr oaghly discatsexl, and our frtciH did not hiaiUte to tell us thilthey hud not abaa4oaed tbe faith of their fitbrr-; that they were for free tride, and that was what their reastatkjus meant. The verdict of the people was that they did not want any more tree trade.! Nuee then oar Democratic frieods have been tryie better their eiteaUon ia thh refard.

If! am not mistaken, the jury at that trial stoojl nine for conviction and three for acquittal' Aud who are the men who were for acquittal? It will be sufficient to speak of one of them. The foreman of that was Mr. William Dickson. Ue is a Democrat, aud a Democrat of in telligence and standing 'in his party. He was for Tilden and reform in 1876. I have been informed that he was then president of tho Tilden and Hendricks club iu Washington city, and I have heard it said that he enjoyed the prom ise of Mr. Tildeu that, as a reward for hU services he was to be marshal of the District of Colombia when Mr. Tilden got to be president. He will doubtless be for the old ticket and his marshal ship in 1S81. Eut certainly the inter ests of justice would be safe with this distinguished Democrat -on the jury.1 and tho foreiuau of it. But how did he slaud? 'lie was for acquittal, and not ouly was he for acquittal, but it would see 111 that he was for acquital for revenue only for he has since been in dicted by tho graud jury of the District of Columbia for having been bribed and corrupted in that interest. If, there fore, there was a failure of justice in the first case it was because of a cor rupt Tildeu reform Democrat. 1 don't Ibiuk I need ; say anything more in answer to thii irrelevant stuff, aud yet there is one other mailer that 1 want to i refer to. I hope Judge Hoadly will not .givo me provocation to itler to i'. aaiu. 1 hope he will not, fur his own sake- If hV could but know, aud appreciate how right minded, sensitively honorable meu, without re gard to political bias, regard the part takeu by liiiu in the settlement of the presidential tontroveray of 1876, he would never agaiu peak in public of tbe theft ofUbe presidency. Judge Hoadly ought to undcrslaud thul every -body knows there wa no theft of the presidency, aud 110 .attempt at theft, except only iu tbe Oregon case, and lhat in the interest of Mr. Tilden Jiulg Hoadly had charge of this case. He mi doubt believed he was right, and presented it in good iaith, for be is an honorable man. .But that does not change the aspect of tbe case it was iii attempted theft nevertheless and Ihe only attempt at theft in all that troublesome controversy. All the bal ance of lhat infamous business was cruel a.-wa!iiia(aou, bloody murder, and horrible butchery. It was the work Of the ku'-klux, tiro "w bite leagut, the bull-whip, aud the shotgun, instru uieiita.lilic.i which were at that time ac knowledged agencies of the Democratic party in the great wrk of making a solid south.
