OULANGER was once under contract to deliver lectures in America; but he thought suicide was better than that, and we guess he was right. [7 IS WELL to watch the praise of 3 Hill; the governor’ WE DO NOT believe the statement that Mr. Sullivan is counting ties in Australia, because the gentleman has the utmost contempt for mathematics. OULD IT oe strange if the Cleveland Democrats should knife the Hon, Billy Sheehan? Billy knifed them, and it’s a poor blade that cuts only one way. MUST remember that with Flower at the crank of the machine some of the cogs would be likely to work for Grover,and how would Senator Hill go to work to help it? THE REMARK that hell is paved with good intentions is obviously in- correct. Tammany hall having a monopoly of the contracts there, it follows that hell has no pavements whatever. F IT WAS wrong for Tammany to bolt Lucius Robinson would it be profitable for the opponents of Tammany to bolt Mr. Flower? Con- sider this thing, gentlemen of the county Democracy.

GLADSTONE will retract no word spoken against Parnell; byt neither will he restrain one of the regrets that are inevitable with Parnell’s death. Just one error stood between Parnell and greatness, ang Mr. Gladstone is consistent in both his condemnation and his grief. PARNELL. THE DOWNFALL of Parnell shows how unsafe itis for « man outside the court circles to be a libertine. Kings are not punished politically for that sinfulness; Parnells are. Kings, moreover, live, and Parnells die. It is a curious reflection, and how far back in history it runs! But Parnell crowns’ his sacrifices for Ireland with his death, He is not refused that privilege. No event could unify the friends of Ireland as that event does. It gives the dead leader a glory that he might have coveted—perhaps he did. It closes a career that did more for Ireland than that of any other man—a record so bright that the one blot on it is gone, not to reappear. What Irish throat will not grow hoarse for Pamell to-day? What Irish eyes that are not filled with tears? JONES-GODKIN EGOTISM. WHEN A MAN mugwumps he confesses that he has lost faith in himself. He repudiates the party with which he has fought and all the principles belonging thereto. For of course no just man is going to desert his colors because of the ticket-making and the various details of a single campaign. Campaigns are bricf and parties are long; and de- sertion, in parties as in an army, is not for a day but for all time. The record is there, and no subse- quent loyalty can sponge out the fact that the deserter, or the mug- wump, thinks he is better than the majority of his party and is there- fore willing, when the majority think themselves better than one man, to give aid and comfort to the enemy. In the army such men are hanged. In political life a | Worse punishment seems to be in- evitable. HARMONY WITHOUT THE CLUB. THE AF ‘TIONS are never to be lightly considered; and when Cleveland and Hill meet on a common platform, under the Tammany flag, and clasp hands across the bloody chasm, it is not surprising that there should be a wild cheer, broken with convulsive but joyous sobs. They have been so alienated! They have alter- nately had such reason to doubt the loyalty of the men to whom the flag belongs! They have themselves fought so often against the flag as well as against each other! But on this occasion they were one and inseparable, and “nothing occurred to mar the harmony of the occasion.” Not a knife showed. Nota club. Not a revolver. All of the weapons were in repose in the boot and down the back. It was sweet and Spothing. It must be viewed with tenderness and awe. Oi'm watchin’ these wrong-inded INVOKE ASSISTANCE, ROSWELL. HE LOYALTY of Governor Hill to Mr. Flower is questioned. It is urged that if Mr. Flower is ‘elected he will detract somewhat from the governor's glory; whereas if he is defeated it will be said by the Democracy outside of this state, “Sce here! Cleveland lost New York and Hill carried it twice by handsome majorities. “Flower is a millionaire, but he lost the state too, Who is this little man: at Albany who carries the most important state without money, and ig elected to the scnate without the expenditure of a dollar?” The question might easily assume force and magnitude in the national convention ; and in the face of the defeat and the loss of patronage even the Stecklers, the Brooklyn Democ- racy, the Smith Weeds, the Voorhis men, the “counties” and the other malcontents of the party might unite with Tammany hall on David as their only way out of the wilderness. We know that Governor Ilill is intéhsely loyal to himself, and perhaps he gives a little of that virtue to Mr. Flower; but the Jefferson county statesman had better pray on general principles to be delivered from his friends as well as his enemies. comicbooks.com
