THE MODERN EDITION OF BALAAM’S ASS.
Ever since Blaine and his friend,
have charged the republican defeat
to the Rev. Dr. Burchard, that gen
tleman has been writing letters to
explain that he didn’t mean to say
what he did say in his famous allit
eration, ‘‘Rum, Romanism and Re
bellion.” In a late letter, however,
he takes a more hopeful view of the
situation. He says: “While, there
fore, I’exceedingly regret their mis
use and misapplication, I still main
tain that the alliterative expressions
have a truthful and intended appli
cation, and who shall say that they
may not have .been overrated foi
Somebody has evidently been
stiffening the old gentleman’s back
bone. Whether the expressions
were overrated or not, they certain
ly did the democratic cause good,
and if Dr. Burchard wants to trave!
Mr. Cleveland ought to send him
around the world to visit American
Consuls as Grant sent Dr. New
man.
The New York Times thinks that
Dr. Burchard did himself good, and
that he will soon draw large congie-
gations. It says:
Granting, purely lor the sake of
argument, that Mr. Burchard is an
ass, what are we to think of the cle
ver politicians who employed him
without first carefully measuring his
ears?
In spite of the abuse which Mr.
Burchard is receiving, he need nol
feel dismayed. It is entirely possi
ble that he will before long draw a
larger audience than any other New
York preacher, and it may soon be
necessary to build him a larger meet
ing house. Should he prefer to
leave the pulpit for the platform,
Mr. Burchard could undoubtedly
make a fortune in a short time bv
lecturing. He might write a course
of lectures entitled, say, “Rum and
Romanism,” “Ale and Aglican
ism,” “Gin and,the Greek Church,
and “Cider and Congregational
ism.” By tracing the close relations
between these various religions and
the retrospective beverages men
tioned in connection with them, he
could open a new field of theologi
cal controversy, and win lasting
fania. He might add to these four
lectures a fifth, entitled “Pure Wa
ter and Presbyterianism,” and show
by contrast that his own particular
denomination is the only one that is
free from mixture with ardent spir

New York, Nov. 20-—Several
thousand people filled the Brooklyn
rink this evening for the purpose of
jubilation upon the election ol
Cleveland and Hendricks, and
listen to the speeches from the
vice president elect, and from Rev.
Henry Ward Beecher as-well. *
Young Spreckle’s attempt upon
the life of M. H. DeYoung, of the
San Francisco chronicle, was a de
termined one. He spoke to De
Young while the latter’s back was
turned, appaiently for the purpose
of getting him to turn. As De
Young faced about Spreckels fired
the first shot, which lodged in the
arm. As DeYoung turned to run,
the second shot broke his shouldei
blade. Another shot was fired af
ter DeYoung fell, but a package of
books in his arm saved him
Spreck’es was shot by one
of the clerks in the office, but not
seriousiy hurt. He was arrested
and subsequently released on $5,-
000 bail, his lather going his se
curity.
Mr. Burchard should not be cast
down. The name of his great pro
totype, Balaam, has lasted for at
least 3,000 years, and if there is any
virtue in alliteration Balaam and
Burchard will be associated together
forever.

CLEVELAND.
We would like to see a change
made in the constitution of our
state, so as to convene the legisla
ture in July or August, instead of
November. The advantages would
be two-fold—first, it would be at
leisure season of the year, when but
little is doing; second, as a conse
quence, a better and abler class of
men could then be found to accept
this duty. In many counties it
hard to find a man, in every way-
competent, who is willing to sacri
fice his time and labor at the most
trying season of the year, and as
consequence, the people are often
forced to put up with very ordinary
stock. But did this body convene
in the summer months, when all
business is stagnated and nothing
very pressing upon the public, they
could readily pick from their ablest
citizens. By this suggestion we in
tend no reflection upon the present
body of law makers now in session
in Atlanta, for it is generally admit
ted that they are the k best body of
men that has convened in years.
They are dispatching business with
rapidity and wisdom, and we confi
dently look lor some long-needed
laws at their hands. , As the negro
is now out of politics in Georgia,
we hope they will: discharge their
duties without giving one eye on
the vote of Cuffee, as has been the
policy in the past. We trust that
some member will take up our sug
gestion about the change of time for
meeting, and see that it is voted
upon. They could not take abetter
step for the advancement
Georgia.
It is said that Dr. Felton is the
ablest man in the Georgia legisla
ture. This is not''sayinga great
deal for the Doc. We are afraid his
ableness will not do him much good,
since he dodged voting for Joseph
E. Brown for United 9tates Sena
tor. Joe never forgets such little
things, and whei> the time comes
will let the Doc. hear from him.

Bis Appearance, Bis Manner. His Conversation
and His Business Ways.
Edmund Hudson in the Washington Capital
1 stopped in Albany a few hours
in order that I might pay my re
spects to the President-elect and
see for myself what manner of man
this memorable campaign of 18S4
has crowned with the greatest
earthly honors. At 4 o’clock
the afternoon I found the Governor
sitting in the vast and splendid ex
ecutive chamber in the new Cap
itol building. How many kings or
emperors ever received their sub
jects I wonder in such a noble
apartment as this in which the
chief ruler of the Empire State
meets his fellow citizens? The
White House will seem to him very
poor and cheap in comparison
when he comes to occupy it. Per
haps the contrast will be great
enough to make him an earnest ad
vocate of a new Executive Mansion
or a rebuilt one at any rate. That
would be something to be thankful
for if it should happen.
The Governor sits in a cane
seated swivel chair before one of
number of large red-topped desks
—the others belonging to his secre
taries. Troops of visitors are con
stantly passing through the chanv
ber, and those who care to do so
walk up to him and pay their re
spects. He asks no one to sit, but
when there are ladies in the party
he rises and shakes hands and ex
changes a few pleasant words with
them. The Governor’s greeting is
a pleasant one, but very simple and
with no excess of _ cordiality of
voice or manner. His voice, one
notices instantly, has none of the
suave and fascinating quality of
Mr. Blaine’s. It is not a voice that
has been used to magnetize or at
tract men or women. It is not the
voice of a man who asks favors of
others, nor is it the voice of an ora
tor. But there is criticism and em
phasis in it, and, while not a soft
voice, it is not hard nor rough.
The first impression one gets of
Governor Cleveland is that he is a
young man. There is a bald place
one sees afterward that goes well
down on the back of his head, but
the face is the face of a man in the
freshest health; a man full of life,
who has never greatly abused him
self nor overdrawn upon his vital
ity. Tall and stout he is, it must
be confessed, hut not an obese man
and while one would not expect
him to prefer an active life, his
lower of work must be enormous,
rle looks like a man who could
work for twenty-four hours without
rest and then begin a new day s
work, if need be, with more vigor
than the average man possesses
after a good night’s sleep.
In conversation the Governor
speaks with a good deal of anima-
tion, and the strongest impression
one gets from him is of great firm
ness and force in adhering to 1
course once it is adopted# One
would say, “Here is a man, surely,
who cannot be driven, but who will
do the driving himself whenever
be necessary.” One might ask
good deal of such a man, hut to de
mand, I should think, would be
losing business.
No man who has read Mr. Blaine’s
last speech will cease to thank an
allwise Providence that his country
has been saved from the clutches of
a hypocrite, and a bad, dangerous
man. To be convinced that ..be is
both a hypocrite and a demagogue,
one only needs to read his letter
ol acceptance and then
his speech. In the one he speaks
in the kindest terms of the south;
in the other he abuses and slanders
the south as none ever has, not ex
cepting Benjamin Spoons. That
he is a bad and dangerous man, one
only needs to reflect that since re
pudiation by his fellow-citizens, he
coolly, deliberately and premeditat-
edly endeavors to array one sec
tion of his country against the oth
er—to again revive all the bitter
prejudice of the late bitter war, and
to bring strife and dissentions where
there is now peace and good will.
The man who can thus, because
defeated, strike an assassin’s blow
at his country’s peace is unworthy
the respect or recognition of any
honest patriot, north or south. We
who have known Mr. Blaine by
reputation can now well under
stand why the honest men of his
own party, those who knew him
longest and best, so heartily de
nounced and repudiated him.
Though it is hard* to understand
how a man of Mr. ’Blaine’s admit
ted intelligence, however politically
corrupt, could get his consent, in
one short speech, to blast and dark-
that page in his country’s histo-
which the historian would have
been compelled to assign him.] But,
thank God, Mr. Blaine’s nefarious
attempt to arouse sectional strife
has fallen still-born. No intelligent
will be misled'? by his false
statements, and no honest man
urmedby his silly pratings. And
what’s more gratifying than all, is
that no sooner was his speech pub
lished than its every word and sen
timent was repudiated by the hon
est press ot the north. We cannot
we are sorry he made it, for
we honestly believe that such a
peech, made under such circum
stances and by such a personage,
which has been so promptly and
universally condemned by all hon
est northern men, will do more than
any other one thing to break down
the remaining prejudice against the
south. And all hail, to the day
when that boon shall; come! Again
and again the south has said to her
northern brethren, let the dead past
remain buried. There was a time
when we differed, but it was an
honest difference, and that differ
ence has been settled, forever set
tled, upon tne bloody battle-field.
We have accepted the result in
good faith, and are now as trus and
loyal to the union as you.

The Entire Return* Reedy For SlgnAture,
Albany, N. Y. Nov. 20.—The
state board of canvassers met at
o’clock this afternoon. Ex-Senator
Conklmg was present a few min
utes. A protest to the effect that
54 green electoral ballots had been
cast in Delaware county for the re
publican electors was read, and on
motion of Attorney-General O’Brien
was ordered to be entered in the
proceedings, and tha return was
passed and received, The Kings
county returns showded a discrep
ancy, but this was explained by the
county clerk, and the return was
prepared. The discrepancy in
Richmond county was explained by
the county clerk, Cornelius A. Hart.
He presented the sheets and stated
that tjie error in the return before
the board was owing to the omission
on the part of the copyists, to insert
the names and votes of two Butler
electors, Thp mistake was not ap

□earing only the totals, and * com 1

when your feet are cold do not pot them
on the grate fender or stove hearth to

air coming up around your feet, when
vour shoes are damp, for such tests no
