In South America—the laud
most favorable to the growth of
violent revolutions, they have, or
pretend to have a great love of pat­
riotism. There are no people ex­
isting elsewhere, that can surpass
them in the brutal pastime of cut­
ting each others throats and howl­
ing pro p o/ria at the same time.
In following this or that general,
they adopt his peculiar colors, and
adorn themselves with the ribl>on
corresponding, with all the sim­
plicity of babies, which, of itself
would be inoffensive, were it not
combined with the most blood­
thirsty disposition extant. This is
one of the peculiar phases of Chris­
tian civilization, as, we must re­
member that they nro eminently, a
Christian people, notwithstanding
the fact that, their patriotic sym­
bol is a piece of ribbon, upon the
high altar of which they would
sacrifice the souls and bodies of
their near relations. This is a true
picture, by an eye witness—our­
selves. They may be ignorant in
many ways, but their supreme de­
votion to the religion of Christ, and
their, almost, total subjection to
the priests, cannot lie questioned,
and woe to the wretch that would
attempt to live among them and
offer doubts as to the consistency
of either their religious or patriot­
ic principles.
In watching the course of the
elections here, we have become
impressed with the conviction that,
while we lack the bloodshed and
oft recurring revolution, we are, in
other ways decidedly similar to the
South Americans. They are led
like wolves to the slaughter, with
nothing more glorious as the re­
sult than the success of some
ambitious soldier, but we who claim,
and have as a fact, a higher state
of civdization, and greater facili­
ties for educating the masses, bil­
low in the lead of this or that dem-
agogue, just as blindly, and with
but a slight regard to existing evils
or the elements of good govern­
ment Instead of the revolution­
ary soldier, there Appears the in­
evitable, political, stump-speaker.
And what does he do with us?
Does he appeal to our intelligence?
Quite the reverse. He appeals to
nothing higher than our ignorance
and predjudice. "We may receive
a few facts, bnt they will be leav­
ened with & d overflowing batch of
n^endacity. Has his patty at any
time been guilty of wrong-doing,
or wasteful in the expenditure of
public money, or lax in bringing
its criminals to justice, or has it
oppressed the poor and fostered
the rich, or made the poor pay
heavy for the common necessities
o f life, by heavy taxation, while
the rich receive their costly dia­
monds from Europe and Africa,
almost free of tax? I f it has done
any of these things, you will not
hear anything on the subject from
him. He comes to praise liis par­

What the
highly intelligent stump-speaker,
with an office or some other emolu­
ment in view, don't know’, is sup­
posed to be beyond the comprehen­
sion of the average citizen, and as
to that portion on which he is well
informed, why, the less he tells,
the better it is, in his estimation,
for those most vitally interested
It is about time that the American
citizen should think a little more
about the condition of affairs in this
government. The facilities for ar­
riving at the facts in regard to the
various raids on the U. S. treas­
ury, nml the plunder thereof, are
as easily obtainable by one citizen
as another. Let us look into such
matters and consider them fairly,
then we will be as well up in the
financial affairs of the government
as the best stump-orator in the
country. There is but little pride
of citizenship or the spirit of intel­
ligent independence in the man
that will howl himself hoarse after
listening to tl»e spiritless meunder-

The New York Sun is edited by
a political fence-jumper, who is
suffering the tortures of a righte­
ous agony, owing to the fact that a
murderer was hung in Buffalo, on
one occasion when Grover Cleve­
land wns sheriff.
Certainly, this
was a high-handed outrage—an in­
terference with the civil and relig­
ious liberty of the Buffalo murder­
er, and totally at variance with the
doctrine laid down by the Ameri­
can Fathers, in that admirable
Declaration
of
Independence,
wherein it is set forth that, we have
the right to life—and according to
the principle advanced by Charles
A. Dana, to take life—liberty and
the pursuit of happiness.
The
courts found the murderer guilty
and compelled the sheriff to hang
him, but now, at this late day, up
rises Dana, who informs us that
Cleveland had no right to interfere
with this murderer in his pursuit
of happiness. How strongly we
become impressed with the despot­
ic tendencies of Cleveland; with
what lightning rapidity are onr
sympathies aroused for this un­
fortunate Buffalo murderer, cut oft’
in the prime of manhood and the
gala day of his usefulness; yet all
this sinks, unfathomablv, in ob­
scurity when contrasted with the
effulgent light of our admiration
for Ciiarles A. Dana, editor of the
New York Sun, the njxistleof a new
reform movement. Confined to a
position with one leg on each side
of the fence, we behold this high-
toned^?) journalist, a republican
to-day, a democrat to-morrow, and
a non-entity in tbe political scale
during the time of national con­
ventions. Here it is where we dis­
cover the animus for all the varied
vituperation, outpourings
and
heartliburnings of the debased po­
litical -scribe.
AVe believe that
there are, now, before the people,
seven candidates for the presiden­
cy. It will be in order to enroll
all the thieves, murderers, ct id
genus onmc, and nominate another,
ami it is also in order that Charles
A. Dana is the man most pre-emi­
nently fitted, by reason of his per­
sistent efforts in their behalf, as
illustrated by bis continued denun­
ciation of the hanging of a mur­
derer, to receive the nomination,
and to lead them, if it were possi­
ble, to a glorious regeneration.

There is not the slightest neces­

Unfortu­
nately, we have missed the distin­
guished honor of an introduction
to the able editor who spreads him­
self over the columns of the Stan­
dard, like an eagle without wings.
Notwithstanding our poverty in
this respect, we have been acquaint­
ed with him—on paper—for many
years.
Considerable time has
been wasted in bringing him to a
6ense of the inevitable. He is a-
bout bomb-proof, and steeped in n
pickle of doubt and procrastina­
tion. Salt-petre would not save
him, and a dose of dynamite would
be inadequate in raising him to
that level where the sinner beholds,
with retrospective dread, the errors
of his antecedent career.

reproof, consequently, more easily

We anticipate lively times dur­

election, there being seven candi­
dates in the field. With any show
oi strength in the cases outside of
the two larger parties, it will, no
doubt, be impossible for any can­
didate to receive a majority of all
the votes cast. The times are al­
ways better after an election than
just preceding; as, the interests
which appear to have been dis­
turbed, settle down into the old,
smooth-running groove.

citement of the battle being over,
the political cauldron ceases to
