Christ v as pi •d pi :• do today owned by idieat who at from. ap;ng a riel is is trnh of dews vest there- mercantile Ex-minator lien Harrison, of Indi- ana, who heads the ticket, had a graml-father. This grandfather was that eminent soldier and statesman, William Henry Harrison, ninth Pres ident of these United States of ours. Ex-Senator Harrison’s great-grand father was a distinguished member of the Continental Congress from Virgin ia, one of the signers of the Declara tion of Independence, twice a member of Congress, ami three times Governor of Virginia. Ben Harrison himself is an able lawyer, an insignificant party politician, and he made a good Union soldier. He succeeded, in 3SSI, Joe McDonald in the United Stages Senate, where he remained du ring the expiration of his term in 1SS7. As a Senator, however, his re cord is somewhat one-legged. It was his brains, or rather the lack of these, that were to blame. And Levi P. Morton? He comes from equally honorable and blue- blooded stock. As head of one of the largest banking concerns in the coun- i i v, be has naturally had additional greatness foisted upon him. He has served well in several political mis sions, notably in the Alabama Arbi tration affair at Geneva. Mr. Morton is an exceedingly versatile gentleman. During his career as Minister to Kranee under the Garfield-Arthur ad ministration, liis versatility was ad mirably evidenced. He was as much at bis case with the President in the • as with the grisettes in the i li'.s-cliantants Jon the boulevards, while tbesumptuousnessof “Monsieur Morton’s” banquets, the magnificence of bis fetes-cliampctres and of his equipages, daz7.1ed even the brilliant Parisians themselves. Morever Mr. Morton is n born financier, albeit of that type which is somewhat at a dis count just now. He is a rabid pro tectionist Yes; both are very good men; but it is principles the country is looking to just now, and the political princi- of these gentlemen are not of the innot place ir masthead. Afe regret that Mr. Tfun ison's mini lie is a good man enough in bis way; but not good enough to lank with tin army of tile victorious. His cause is bad; and it won’t take much to heal him. John Sherman has bad bis last chalice, sure enough. But the way lie set himself to the task of winning was a caution to raw and untrained candidates. Even bis iron nerves were shaken by the terrible strain of last week. The defeated Presidential candi dates may console themselves by re membering the words of Bismarck to Prince Alexander when the latter was about to accept the Bulgarian crown— that it would always be a nice remin iscence for him. The prayers offered at tli ■ Chicago convention were, so it is announced, first revised by a committee appointed for that purpose. Sincejtlic Jlurchard calamity the Republicans have been shy of ministerial effusions, and they want to know beforehand what is go ing to be said. kind the country demands. They will therefore be easily snowed under next November, in spite of the fierce fight •'•oir immense bank accounts will en able them to make. They are both warm friends of Mr. Blaine, and can didates of his own creation. Should their election be possible—which it most certainly is not—Mr. Blaine, and he only, would be the chief en gineer of the political machine for the four years following March 4, 18a9.

Whereupon the brutal driver half beat the animal to death. A reporter witnessed the scene, and very properly had the teamster arres ted. Tho cruel wretch was according ly pinned like a spider to the wall. His horse—which hod more sense than liis driver apparently—tugged at a too heavy load. He strained the breeching to back the team against the sidewalk, but couldn’t doit quick ly enough. Then came thwack, thwack; each one with an oath and each one raising a welt on the poor beast.

OUR ADVANTAGES- A correspondent of the Manufac turers' Record thus tersely nets forth to intending immigrants some of tha advantages of Georgia: We can make a bale of cotton to the acre.

But each one caused almost a stampede. The bloody shirt brigade have evident y not fgrgbttni Bull Run. ..They all hail their eye on tile main chunce.

The great party of which lentdlu was the chief corner-stone has degenerated into a company of free booters. It makes merchandise of everything that it touches.

Hence, probably, the failure. From 10 to 25 bushels of wheat can be made to the acre. All varieties of vegetables can be successfully raised here. Stock raising is very profitable here, and is fast coming to the front as one of our most important enterprise*. All kinds of grasses can be success fully grown here.

Belva Lockwood, one of the andidates for the Presidency, wants “to dismiss the army and rule by love.” Unreasoning Belva! Such a sway would require a far bigger anay than any tliat lias ever yet marched and fought. Referring to Mrs. Lockwood’s pro position to this end, the New York Sun says: “It will be interesting, however, sec Mrs. Lockwood addressing man kind from tlie platform laid down years ago by Mr. Samuel Taylor Cole ridge : As a poet, Mr. Dana ought to have known that the platform in question was laid down by Sir Walter Scott and tliat it forms part of “The Lay the Last Minstrel.” THEIR STANDPOINT* The Philadelphia Record is of opin ion that, after sifting out of the Re publican platform the undisputed proposition of public policy as to which there is no material variance an-o.ig political parties, there i> very little left. In the hoich-potch of roar ing rigmarole there is a fairly clear declaration in favor of making needed reduction of taxation by the repeal of tu>D internal taxes, and by an increase of tariff duties to check imports o£ arti cles produced in the country. The imposition to place wool on the free 'ist is condemned, and the Mills bill its entirety is denounced. As a further set-off to the Democratic pol icy of tax reduction, increased expen diture is recommended for the reha bilitation of our merchant marine, for larger naval force, for more fortifi cations, more guns, more pensions, more internal improvements, and for inter-oceanic canals. There is a hint national expenditure for free schools, but no absolute committal to that policy. In a word, the Republican party goes to tho country as opposing tax reduction except upon whisky and toj bacco, or the alternative plan of re ducing revenue by increasing tariff duties to the prohibitive point on goods that may be produced in this country. They would also obviate the necessity of tax reduction by ’arger S nditure. ere is a plain issue, easily under stood, and there is nothing else in question. The fustian of opposing “combina tions” and “trusts” while supporting tlie policy of discrimination which makes combinations and trusts possi ble; prating about a merchant ma rine and in the same breath opposing free ships, and affecting to be con cerned for the interests of labor whilst insisting upon the maintenance of a system which robs tlie employe for the benefit of the employer, will pass ith intelligent men for what it is worth. Polyagray gets its usual knock civil service reform its usual platitude, anil the foreign policy of the Cleve land administration indiscriminate dispraise. But these are matters of routine and are of no account. The 8ignificaat omission of the plat form is the customary coddling word for the prohibitionists. The temper ance poker is red-hot, and the platform builders were afraid to touch it. Except for its stand on the tariff question the platform is weak. On the tariff question—while wc believe it to be hopelessly wrong—we are reatly to admit the candor of the plat form utterance. The party has there by declared itself unreservedly in fa voring of using the power of taxation, intended to keep the wheels of govern ment going, to keep other wheels go ing at the general expense in the pur suance of a policy of deliberate favor itism. Every monopolist jn this land and every vote controlled by monopoly will come forward to support the tick et launched upon this national declar ation of partisan belief and intention.

In its comments up the Republi can nominees the Charleston News & Courier says the candidates are suited to the platform and the platform is suited to the party. i. . In Harrison we have the monopo listic idea that human flesh and blood are cheap and that the honest work ingman is to l>e deprived of-his fair wages even though it be necessary to flood the country with heathen. - In Morton we bare the personification of the money power in politics. With out qualification other than bis great riches and bis reputation ss . good dinner-giver while abroad” Mr.'Mor- ton has been selected on the.theory of practical politics, that “Jones pays the freight,” and may be able to con trol a certain vote in New..

The man who was so ashamed of liis bumble origin that he tried'to buy the shingle, which once hung at the door of his shop-eUQp in Vermont, in order to destroy it, )S not the kind of man that will attract any large lib ber of honest workingmen to his sqp.- S ort.

The Prince of Wales is, as a rule, ons of the best dressed men in Eng land, bnt he is this summer criticised for wearing at the races a dreadful snuff-colored suit and hat His lorm is too portly and bi< back too broad for such freaks. Out West they aw talking of t&e 17-year locusts, which eat up the com ing crops; but here in the South the talk is of the 17-year old girls just graduating, who eat np the paternal pocket-kook with both grace and gusto. Be a little . hone in this kind of waather. member that your horse can’t step out of the twees and run into geta cool ing toddy. Seek the shade; go slow; let the good beast lire his span.

The Methotl'ist church at SL Jelins- bury. Vt.. had a debt of $708 and the jxiKtor wanted it removed. So a few Sundays when the congregation went to church they saw behind the pul pit a big Macktjunrd, on which was drawn a mountain. The mountain was divided into apparent geological strata, and each stratum was marked according to size with •*$1.” “$3,” and so on up to $o0. Tlie jiastcr said that he wanted to <>eo tho mountain of debt wiped out, and as subscriptions were an nounccd from the congregation the cor responding figures and sections were wiped from the board; and in twenty- five minutes tlie whole mountain had disappeared and there was $G0 to spare. .oSSQSil This is the Top of the Genuine Pearl Top Lamp Chimney.

Will some kind soul inform us why it Is that all the people who go to theatres don’t somo time, by accident, take ft Into their heads to go on tlie same night? Why Is It that in the course of a week it often happens that the house is just evenly filled every night? Why is it tliat the receipts of a whole week do not vary 1 more than ten or twelve, and seldom I more than fifty, dollars on the night ? In a city like New York or Londou a piece often has a run of six montiis or a year, , with full houses all tlie time, but very very few, if any, turned away. How is I it that audiences of just such a particu- i lar size*will distribute themselves over 1 such a large period? What law is it tliat regulates tho attendance at the and makes the audiences almost uniform? Gilt Edge Palace Store kespectfully, T max JOSEPH, Broad St Store closes at 6 p. m.
