When a great party choses a?stan-dard-bearer,
if it Iiom faith in its princi
ples and means to stand honestly and
manfully' by them, it will select a man
who fairly reptesents the organization
and is known to be in sympathy with
i's spirit nnd purposes. H.isthe Dem
ocratic party this in nominating Gen
eral Huncock Dili it not sincerely and
in good iuith in selecting a Union Gen
eral for its candidate? If it really ad
mires and honors him for his loyalty,
how is it tliait is so hrgelyv repre
sented iu Congiess by rebel brigadier.il
Wherever the p.irty has been strong
enough to be able to act freely and ac
cording to its true inclinations, it lias

or who were known, sympathizers with

not to represent Democratic principle
but to disjiuise them, and becausR the
party managers know that no candi
date identitied with the historj
of the party during the last
twenty years could be elected. Hence
they threw overboard their really rep-rei-entative
statesmen and adopted a
professional soldier without a civil rec
ord, and who has never been known
either in the Democratic councils or
the councils of the nation. This course
as dishonest, insincere and cowardly
It was an. acknowledgment that they
knew they could not succeed if tliey
marched under their true colors. It
was, in short, a mere trick to win the
election under false pretenses. Who is
so shallow as to believp that the South
ern delegates, repiesenting constituen
cies that for the last eight years had
never sent a Union man to Congress,
could have been persuaded to vote for
General Hancock at Cincinnati upon
any other consideration except that ot
absolute political nece-sit? Nothing
short of tie clear pieception of this
odious necessity could have secured the
votes of the solid South. for an officer
of tho Federal army. The people who
ostracised General Longstreet for doing
iu sincerity and honor what they hypo
critically professed to do that is for
accepting the results of reconstruction
and who have' more recently lidi
culed and denounced him.for taking
office at the hands of President Haves,
cannot expect to be credited fordisin
terested motives when they pretend
'hat General Hancock is their enthu
siastic choice for the Presidency. . Dan
iel Dougherty, in nominating the iuc
cessful candidate before the Conven
tion, did indeed promise in behalf of
the South "the wild, sweet music of the
Rebel cheer" should be heard in the
canvass on behalf of tho Union Gei
eral, and that "the divided tribes who
have lome down from ihe mountain of
secession will rofl in one mighty and
undivided stream for theregenerationof
this nation."' Bat we cannot help be
lieving thatthero would be more heart
iness in that "wild, sweet music" if
the cheer were for Jell. Davis; and
there is too much reason to suspect
that the "regeneration" to which the
"tribes osesession"look forward means
another reconstruction under the aus-pit&sofex-Coiifederattpoliticiaiis,

BY HENKT M. FIELD, EDITOR NEW YORtf
"EVANGELIST."
The great convention at Chicago, to
which the politicians have been looking
I forward with such eagerness for months
past, has come and gone, leaving many
surpries behind it Like some pre
ceding conventions, it has confounded
the calculations of the wisest political
seers, who havp found all their prophe
cies fulsilied, their sagacity proved to
be folly, and their towering ambitions
brought to naught In some -'respects
the result has been not unlike that'inH
the samo city twenty years ago when"!
the nomination of Mr. Seward was de
feated, and Abraham Lincoln for the
first time appeared as a striking
figure in American politics. Now, as
then the aspiring hopes of those who
stood foremost and, as they thought,
almost alone iu the race, are disap
pointed; and in place of the expectant
"heirs to the succession," ofte comes to
the front who, like Lincoln, is a stal
wart "son of the fore.st," whom the
leaders had left quite out of their cal
culations. Of coursp the eyes of the country
are at once turned upon the new can
didate, and a million voices ask, who
and what is he? In thii case it can
not be pretended that lie is "a dark
horse," in the sense that he was
before quite unknown. On the con
trary, fgw of our public men have been
more prominently before the country
from the lime that he entered the army
at the beginning of the war, through
his military career, and his long service
in Congress, till the hour of his nom
ination at Chicago. For seventeen
years he lias been a member of the
House of Representatives, in a position
where a man very soon finds his level;
where the strcng naturally comn to the
front, while the weak as naturally fall
to the rear. Such a position is one to
expose a man's weakness and incapaci
ty if it does not shoyrhisabiitv and-character.-
vjv k record lie hasr
made for himself in this position is a
part of the history of the country.
But we do not propose to speak of
Gen. Garfield as the public know him,
but as we know him, giving our own
personal expressions for what they are
worth. While the "Evangelist" takes
no part in political contests, yet it is
not indifferent to the character of our
public men, and feels it to be a duty to
contribute, as far as possible, to the in
formation of its readers, in rccard to
those for whom their votes are asked.
With Gen. Garfield we have had a per
Rjnal acquaintance fop many rear.
He is a graduate of our Alma Mater,
and we have met hirn at Commence
ments, as well as in Vashiugton. Not
long ago he told us very simply and
modestly the story of his eaijy life, of
his struggles how to get an education;
how after studying in Ohio, he decided
to come to an Eastern College, and
wrote to several Presidents to ask for
information; and how the kind letter
he received from Dr. Hopkins decided
him to go to Williums College. It was a
happy choice. Entering the junior
class, ho was there but two years, but
during that time he had the invalua
ble instiuction of that eminent teacher;
and probably there is no man livingJ
for whom he feels more sincere veuera
tion a feeling of mingled respect and
affection than his old teacher, so hon
ored and beloved, Pre-iident Mark Hop
kins. Iu College he was onp of the fore
most. We have seen it stated in some
fat
paper that the richer students looked
down on hftu because of his poverty.
But this we piust believe to be a puie
invention. At any rate, if a few smil
ed at the rough figure and coarse gar
ments of the uncouth Westerner, he
soon inspired u diferent feeling. There
is no purer democracy in tne worm
than in an American College no p'atp
where youn" men who are "stuck up,"
as the phta.se i, elated by their wealth
or social position, are sooner "taken
down." Money counts for little when
brought in comparison, or in contrast
with personal qualities. The thing
whiih Collpge studeuts respect ruo.t at e
muscle and brains, physical strength
and intellectual capacity. Garfield had
both. He could hold his own any
where on the ball-goniul, or in a rough
and-tunible, as well as in the class
room. If anybody affected to "look
down" upon him, the supercilious youth
would soon be taught to "look up'
from his own position lying flit on his
back. But he commanded respect not
only by his strength and courage, but
by his standing iu his class. Ho was
a good scholar, and especially a good
debater; and when to these qualities it
be added that he was also a devout
Christian, it may well be supposed that
his personal influence was excellent.
The deference which College boys fee!
for physical prowess, gives those who
possesses this only an evil ascendency.
There is no moro dangerous man in
such an institution than a great, hulk
ing fellow, who, with his strength of
limb, is vu'gar and profane a coarse,
swearing, swaggering bully. Such a(
man sometimes demoralizes a whole
College. But when one conis among
young men, a giant in strength,
jet pure of heart and clean of tongue;
his physical qualities give a prodigious
momentum to his religious iutlueuce.
Graduating in 18G, the young stu
dent returned to Ohio to encage in
teaching, aiid occasionally iu preachinjr,
for the family belonged to the sect f
Disciples, or Canipbel'iteo, which re
quires no onlination, and no course f
theological study; and as he had spc
ial "gifts" for speaking in public, he
"exercised his gifts" in the gatherings
of his brethren. It was at this tin e
that he married a lady who, though ex
tremely modest and retiring, is well
known to be highly educated, and full
uf the best womanly sense as well as
womanly feeling. She has had a great
influence over his subsequent career;
and it is to the honor of the man that
he ascribes much of his success to hi
wife. From these peaceful nid do
mestic scenes, and this quiet life, lie
was called by the breaking out of the
war. The moment the country was in
danger, and had need of her sons, he
entered the field, and rose to distinc
tion. To this portion of his career we
have no need to refer, as the chronicleis
will recount it in the fullest details.
We shall never forget an evening
which he spent with us at Willard's in
Washington, at the closo of the war,
" "--o. . . !-. attul .!.
interesting account of the Battle of
Ciiicamauga, in which he had taken
part The description was so minute
and so vivid, that it has remained in
our memory, leaving an impression
more di.stitict than vvo have of any
other battle of the war. He
was the chief of staff of Gen. Rose
crann. and when the army was defeat
ed.
and retiring in hot haste from the
field, he heard the sound of cannon in
the "distance, which told him that Gen.
Thomas, who commanded the left, was
still fighting to save the fortunes of the
day, and turning his horse, he rode
straight to that part of tho field, think
ing peihaps, like Napoleon at Marengo,
tint "though one battle was lost, that
there was time to gain another, and re
mained with that great commander till
his stubborn resistence saved the army.
Since the war Gen. Garfield's place
has been ill Congress, where he has
been seen and known of alf who have
visited Washington. There he has
gradually risen to the position of the
leader of his party in tho House of
Representatives, not by pushing or am
bition, but by the natural ascendency
accorded to superior ability. No man
cou.d command such a position, and
hold it, without talents of a higher or
der, the possession of which is now con
ceded to him by all not only tliose
of his own but of the opposite arty.
But no degree of sutcss has ev er
changed the man. He lias always been
the same simple in character and
mode.it in manner, though with the
consciousness of strength which comes
with long experience of his power, yet
with an utter absence of arrogance and
pretension. He is pre-eminently the
man of the people. Born in a very
humble home, among the poor, all his
L sympathies are with them. He has no
more pi ide than Lincoln had. Indeed
there are many points of rosemblence
in the characters, as well as in the ca
reers, of the two men.
And now if we were to sum up in ono
word the imprevsion which he makes
upon us, it would be that of his thor
ough maylixkss. He is every inch a
man. There is something manly iu
his very phvsique. Tall in person,
broad-chested and strong-limbed, he has
the figure of an athlete. His head is
large, and the expression of his face
one of mingled intelligence and kindli
ness. He has an open countenance
one in which we can detect no lines of
craft and cunning, but which shows a
frank and open nature, that scorns
guile and trickery and deceit. If there

be anything in physiognomy if wo
can read the mind in the face we
s iv, This is a true, brave, honest man,
who would serve his country iu any
station, legislative or executive, with
thesame manly couragewhich heshowed
in the field.
But there is moro in his countenance)
even than inte li;emo and simplicity of
character. There is another thing
liich goes with true manliness grea't
sweetness and gentleness, something
which shows under a frame of iron a
heart which wo do not always find
fritted with sterner qualities. - itja a
face, in short, which indicates one who
is brave as a lion and gentle as a wo
nnn. Such is the hero of the hour
We repeat he is "every inch a man"
big-brained, big-breasted, and big
heirted, a man to love as a compLL
ion, and to follow as a leader.
Such is he who, iu the full vigor of
his manhood he is not yet fifty is
nominated for President of the United
States. Should ho be elected to that
o'fice, we are sure that he would car
ry into his new position the same qual
ities which he has shown hitherto, and
that as tho head of the government, he
would pursue the same stnightforward
course, and maintain the manly sim
plicity and integrity of tho early days
of the Republic
The Prussian Wends, tho remnant
of a Slavic race ohlc established in
Germany retain some of the grossest
suiers:itions of their pagan ancestors.
The belief is general among them
that the heart or liver of a dead infant
or maiden of tender v ears, brewed vith
certain herbs into a beverage, will cure
diseases or inspire the passion of lovo
in the consumers. The practical re
sult of this belief is the constantly re
current violation of the grave's sancti'
ty and the mutilation of the corpses se-cr.-tly
disinterred. Recent y the graves
in tho new cemetery of Weissensec
were broken open during thonigh the
coffins contained in them forml, and
tho bodies of an unmarried girl and a.
male infant discovered nest morning
by the guardians of the burial ground,
mangled in the most revolting manner,
the cavito of the4chest, in both cases,
having been completely emptied of its
contents. A rigid search for the. per'
pstrators of this ghastly offense is le
ing instituted by the gendarmerie of
the Weissensee district, but with small
hope of success, an the superstitious
savages who have, upon several occa
sions within tho last few years, comy
mitted similar outrages, have hitherto
invariably escaped detection.
Wonderful changes are taking p'aco
in Palestine. Mr. Schick, surveyor of
nuildings in Jerusalem, in a late report
says ruined houses have been restored
or rebuilt by individuals or companies,
and buildings on the Peabody plan
have been erected by associations.
The streets are now lighted, and for an
Eastern cit) kept exceptionally clean,
and the acqueduct from the pools of
Solomon has been restored, and the
water brought thence to the city. Tan
neries and slaughter houses have been
removed outside the city. The sani
tary department is under control of a
German physician. Bethlehem and
Nazareth aro eagerly emulating tho
progress of Jerusalem, and in the latter
city windows are now quite frequent.
The persecuted Jews from the varijas
countries of Europ-, with plenty o
means, are seeking homes in Palestine,
and still gieater iiuiirLvements will be
seen in the near future. The restora

Ei-Gov. Young, Dem.of Ohio, was
asked the other day what he thought of
the nomination of Eugil-h of Indiana,
for vice president Ho replied:
Well, that is a confounded thin nom
ination. The party has been howling
about national banks and bloated bond
huldeisfor ear and now they take
the worst national banker and most
bloated bondholder in Indiana to finish
rh"ir ticket. English is personally
very unpopular in the state,, for the
reason that l.e is stingy, narrow mind
i! I, and rold uearted. The soft-money
people out Mieiv, and there are lots o
them, halo him ou account of his finan
cial ideas. He has a big banal, but
the chips will never fly out of it to
tickle the lioys with. If ho ever gives,,
it will be in the same proportion that
he gave to the Chicago sufferers, SI.
No, .sir; Indiana his been in doubt for
some time until this nomination, but
now she is sure for a republican victory.
