The Platform of the Xew York Dem
ocratic Convention.
This document will he acceptable
to the Democratic Party of the coun
try. There have been apparently
some discordent ingredients in the
party but they do not appear in the
plutform of the New York Democrats.
They commend the Administration of
of Mr. Cleveland as wise and states
manlike, and deserving the confidence
of the people. They favor civil ser
vice reform hut not us the Republi
cans claim it to keep their adherents in
office and exclude Democrats. They
claima|re-organizatiou of the commis
sion so that it shn 1 ! he h, sympathy
with the Administration. We under
stand their views to be, that in select
ing persons for office the constitution
al power, of the Executive and heads
of Departments to make appoint
ments to office shall not be impair
ed so as to keep their opponents
in office. It. has been our opinion,
from the beginning of this policy,
that to properly maintain the princi
ples of the Democratic Part} - holders
of office should be in sympathy with
it. Any other idea is violative of the
decision of the people who at the
polls put the Democrats in power.
They don't deserve to he in power if
they cannot furnish officials capable
of tilling any appointment creditably
and satisfactorily. We do not doubt
that there are Republicans who can
do this, 1ml no party can maintain it
self by keeping such Republicans in
office to tlie exclusion of Democrats,
especially when the Republicans have
enjoyed the emoluments Of all offices
for 25 years. The civil service is obey
ed when competent men are placed in
office and if the Democratic Party can't
furnish them it don't deserve.to be in
power.
The New’ York Democratic conven
tion does not object to the issue of
silver coin if there is any practical meas
ure of agreement with other nations
to make gold and silver of equal value,
but until that can be accomplished it
thinks the policy is to stop the com
pulsory coinage of silver dollars and in
this, we think the business men of the
country will comply with its views.
On the question of the tariff the con
vention says:
The National Democratic platform
pledges the party to revise the tariff
in a spirit of fairnesss to all interests,
white it declares in favor of a reduc
tion of taxation and enlargement of
the free list in order to lessen the cost
of production. It commits the party
to due regard of existing interests as
the “plain dictate of justice,” and de
clares that American labor shall not
be deprived of its ability to compete
successfully with foreign, and that the
proposed duties shall be sufficient to
cover any increased cost of produc
tion. which may exist in consequence
of higher rate of wages prevailing in
this country. This convention calls
for a revision of the tariff upon the
principles thus laid down in order
that the market for our products be
enlarged, and that industry may be
lelieved from unnecessary burdens
and serious obstacles, which have par-
atized its operations and narrowed up
the field for remunerate experiment of
labor and capital offered by the
exhaustless natural resources of this
country.
We copy one more paragraph as fol
lows:
NO PROHIBITION.
We oppose all sumptuary laws that
interfere with the constitutional right
of personal liberty ami favor the en
actment of such excise laws as shall be
alike just to all, considering the claims
of all and protecting their individual
rights.
The platform was adopted without
a dissenting voice.
Up Town Meetings in Augusta.
—For about two weeks previous to
the 28th of September, large tent
meetings have been held up town in
Augusta. The Rev. W. A. Candler,
the Rev. A. G. Haygood and other
eloquent preachers have ministered
to large congregations. The interest
was kept up the whole time, and ma
ny have been converted and joined
the different churches in the city.
Rev Mam Jones' great tent arrived on
the 2tith and was spread out on (ireen
street, where it underwent complete
re|>airs. This tent is centrally and
conveniently placed. With plank
floors and good seats it is comfortable
and will accommodate several thou
sand without inconvenience.
The campaign of England is in full
blast. It would seem, from all the
late accounts, that Gladstone's voice
is greatlv impaired and his eloquence
in speaking cannot exert its former
influence. But his name ami rule is
still imperial. We cannot undertake
to reveal the mysteries of English pol
itics but it is yet probable that uuder
Gladstone's councils the Liberals will
prevail.
A dispatch to the Atlanta Constitu
tion from St. Joseph, Mo., dated Sept.
28th, says : Thousands of people at
tended the various services held here
to-day. Messrs. Jones and Small made
addresses which moved the great au
diences to tears. The interest felt in
the meetings is widespread and ex
tending.
A young iady in Jacksonville, Fla.,
has written to President Cleveland
proposing marriage. She says she is
only a temporary resident in Florida,
and is satisfied that she is peculiarly
fitted to be the mistress of the white
house. At last accounts the Presi
dent had not accepted the proposal.
Rebellion in Canada—A num-
ber of subordinates have been found
guilty and sentenced to be hung for
the rebellion in Canada. This seems
to be unfavorable for Ueil. Great
efforts are being made to save bis life
lie having been found guilty and sen'
tenced to death.

From “Sir Eustace Grey.”
BY GEORGE CRABBK.
Pilgrim, burthened with thy sin.
Come the way to Zion’s gate;
There, till Mercy let thee in,
Knock, and weep, and watch, ami wait.
Knock ! He knows the sinner’s cry;
Weep! He loves the mourner’s tears;
Watch! for saving grace is nigh ;
Wait! till heavenly light appears.
Hark! it is the Bridegroom's voice;
Welcome, pilgrim, to thy rest ;
Now within the gates rejoice,
Safe and sealed, bought and blessed.
Safe—from all the lures of vice ;
Sealed—by signs the chosen know ;
Bought—by Lore, and Life the price ;
Bless'd—the mighty debt to owe.
Holy Pilgrim ! what for thee
In a world like this remain ?
From thv guarded breast shall flee
Fear and shame and doubt and pain.
Fear -the hope of Heaven shall fly ;
Shame—from Glory's view retire ;
Doubt—in certain rapture die ;
Pain—in endless bliss expire.
TRUTH—WHAT IS IT?
When Pilate asked Christ, what is
truth ? it seems he did not wait for an
answer, or if he did, it was never re
corded.
Truth is that which can be demon
strated as clear as a mathematical
proposition ; it is that which can be
made so clear that there can lie no
room for doubt; it is thut. which is a
fact, a reality, a law of nature.
There are all kinds of truths, and
they stand out in their respective
spheres, independent and separate
from eacli other.
We have uiorul truths; spiritual
truths; physical truths; scientific
truths; natural truths, and the truths
of observation and feeling. As no
two minds are alike then upon all
questions of abstract reasoning in
morals, faith, belief, and hope, there
will be differences of opinion, and
what to one mind may be a settled
and undisputed truth, will to another
mind, be an absurdity, a superstition,
or a conventionality of society.
Truths that can be illustrated, dem
onstrated, or proven to the eye, are
uever doubted. They are recognized
as settled facts, and so accepted. Like
an army beaten in battle, there is
nothing left but to surrender, when
there is no retreat.
But in the general acceptation of
the term, truth, takeson u wide range
and applies to belief, conduct, appear
ances, and all the social relations in
life. Viewed from that standpoint we
can arrive at what should be recog
nized as truth, or the governing prin
ciple of life.
It has been said by some writer—
“The mind's eye is perhaps no better
fitted for the full radiance of truth,
than is the body's for that of the sun.’"
That may be true in a degree. The
question might arise could one gener-
otion take in all truth, and if it could,
could it use or digest it morally or
physically. We think not.
The mind grows and develops with
every generation, and the moral and
physical discoveries or reasonings are
suited to that generation.
Should the sun burst upon the
morning with its noonday brightness
and heat, it would be death to vege
tation, but gradually risiugand bright
ening and spreading its heat, nature
adjusts itself for the brightest and
hottest rays. So with mental life and
development. What is truth for one
generation may not be truth for an
other. The Jew of to-day is not the
Jew of two or three thousand years
ago, with his narrow, ignorant and
selfish idea of his God, and he a spe
cial people. Had the religious truth
of to-day burst with its full force up
on the minds of Moses or Solomon,
how different Jehovah would have
been portrayed in the sacred writings.
How different those writings would
have been.
The Gentile would not have been to
him the heathen he was nor he a pecu
liar people to the Gentile. Jehovah
would have been the father of the
whole world, and the temple at Jeru
salem free to all to worship in. Truth
has grown upon the Jewish mind
agd so it has grown upon all minds,
day by day, year by year, gen
eration by generation, and century
by century.
Socially and morally speaking.
Truth is the foundation upon which
all confidence, trust, honor, nnd hope
can be built, for it is the cement, the
strong chain which binds society to
gether. “It is the band of union and
the basis of human happiness. With
out it, there is no reliance upon lan
guage, no confidence in friendship, no
security in promises or oaths.”
A truthful man is feared; a liar is
not. The first has power to free or
condemn ; the second is powerless in
a court of justice. The love of truth
will make a man true to himself:
••Thin &tx>ve nil, to thine own self Ik? true.
Ami It must follow as the night the day.
Thou cans’t not then Ue false to any man.”

Washington Letter.
From Our Regular Correspondent
Washington, Sept. 28, 1885.
There has been scarcely a ripple to
break the political calm during the 1
past week. The bitter contests wag- j
ed in Ohio, Virginiaand New York are j
not felt here. This is unusual for it
has been the habit of previous admin- i
istrations to throw themselves into the !
midst of such contests with all their
patronage, prestige and influence.
President Cleveland however has said
that he will take no active part in the .
state elections and his Cabinet have j
shown a determination to imitate
his example. But this refusal to enter |
the fray must not be construed into
any lack of interest in Democratic
success. It is-the belief of the Presi
dent and liis constitutional advisers
that they have a work before them of
the grandest scope, and that the cause
of.true Democracy in state elections
will be best promoted by the general
government in an example of rigid at
tention to the work that strictly be
longs to it.
Tliequestion as to who should be the
successor of Prof. Hilgard as Super
intendent of the Coast Survey, has
been the subject of mature considera
tion on tlie part of the President ever
since the first irregularities in that
bureau were discovered. There are
so many and such weighty interests
involved that it was a difficult ques
tion to decide.who would be the best
man for tlie place. It requires a man
of good executive ability as well as of
eminent scientific qualities. It ap
peared to the President that these
qualities were united in the person of
Prof. Alexander Agassiz, and he ac
cordinglv, through the Secretary of
the Treasury, wrote to him asking
him to assume the superintendency
of the Coast Survey Bureau.
Prof. Agassiz's name was tlie choice
of the President himself. No one
recommended him for the position,
but his selection was the result of a
desire of the Administration to secure
the services of the very best men possi
ble and asa recognition of his eminent
scientific attainments. It is under
stood that in the letter the President
sent to the Professor he strongly urg
ed him to give the country the benefit
of his knowledge in the practical man
ner which would be open to him
through the bureau were he to accept
the superintendency.
Prof. Agassiz is a man of large
wealth and influence and one of the
’most prominent scientists in the Uni
ted States. He is a son of the late
Prof. Louis Jean Rudolph Agassiz, the
great Swiss naturalist und geologist,
who took up his residence in this
country in 1848 and died here in 1873.
The son ably filled the father's place,
and is authority on most scientific
subjects.
A party of District Democrats went
to the White House last week and
made a strong appeal for the appoint
ment of a fellow citizen to the office of
Recorder of deeds in the place of Fred
Douglass. They had no prejudice a-
gainst Mr. Douglass on account of
his color, but he was one of the most
offensive partisans they ever set eyes
upon and ought to go. The gentle
man recommended for the place was
of old and aristocratic connections,
with considerable influence in Vir
ginia and universally popular in
the District. He was in every way
qualified and would perform the du
ties of the office in such a manner as
would do honor to the President and
himself. Mr. Cleveland is very famil
iar with this speech and hears it sev
eral times every day. He listened
patiently for a while, then got out of
his chair, pushed his big hands way
down into his pockets, and, wander
ing toward the library windows, look
ed down over the Potomac flats in an
abstracted manner. Pretty soon he
turned and asked impulsively:
“You think there ought to be a
change in that office?”
“Yes, sir,” replied the chorus.
“Very well; give me the name of a
colored man competent to fill it and
I’ll appoint him to-day.”
The silence that followed was pain
ful. The President returned to his
desk anil commenced reading some
letters that lay open before him. The
“delegation” consulted; it was easy to
see that their anxiety about a change
was quenched, and, explaining to the
President that they were not prepar
ed to recommend any colored man
that evening, filed out of the library
and down the stairs.

, LqffDOX, September 28..■-Rebecca Jar
jrett, of tbs Solvation Array; Thomas
William Stead, editor of the Pall Mall
Gazette; Sampson Jacques, one of the
•toff of that paper; Mrs. Coombe, Mrs.
Bramwell Boothe, of the Salvation
Army, and Louise Morey, defendants
in the abduction ease of Eliza Arm
strong, were committed for trial to
day. Mr. Russell, counsel for Mrs.
Jarrett, reserve* his line of defence.
During the proceedings, Mr. Stead,
acting as his own counsel, read a doc
ument containing his line of defence.
He claimed that the end which he
had in view in carrying out his scheme
justified the means he resorted to. He
admitted that he might have been
mislead by the statements of Mrs.
Jarrett, who, if she procured the girl
Eliza by fajse-pretences, as was testi
fied to by Mrs. Armstrong, liad ob
tained the money from 1dm fraudulent
ly. The Magistrate frequenty pro
tested against portions of the docu
ment, stating that the matter was
irrelevant. The Magistrate summed
up the case strongly against defend
ants, and said that nothing could jus
tified their doings, nor the publica
tions of the nauseous articles In the
Pall Moll Gazette. He acquitted
Bnuaweil Booth and Mrs. Coombe of
the charge of indecent assault, but
committed them, as well as the rest of
the prisoners, on other charges.
Ap to Roumelia there are so many
different statements about Russia’s
position on that question, that no
tone can tell what it is. She was re-
ipprted op being opposed to Prince Al
exander, so much as to cause the
Prince to complain that the Czar
would not answer either of three let
ters he addressed to him, and the
news up to the 23th, represents him
os favorable to the union of Roumelia
and Bulgaria. Turkey has been so
conservative as to be praised by the
Powers. It is Btated that her course
has saved the Powers from embarrass
ment. . ^
The French attacked the Hovas at
faraofet, Madagascar. The French
tinder Admiral Biot, after two hours
fighting, fell back with the loss of
thirty killed and wounded. The po
sition of the Hovas was strongly en
trenched. We make this statement
from a London dispatch of the 29th
ult.
Lon do*, September 27.—The Turk
ish losses iu the ten days’ fighting
at Dvakna were 900 men. The Al
