SEVEN years ago, October 20, 1869, Horace Greeley wrote an open letter. addressed*to Mr. Tilden, and said: “This I will' say for yéuw, that lam confident you have never “sought to enrich yourself by politics or-at the expense of the public; that whatever of wealth you have acquired or enjoyed was earned in your profession as a dawyer, and that your instincts and vour infleence, partisanship apart; fave generally been felt on the side of economy in public expenditures ‘and uprightness in the conduect of pubdicjaffairs.” Wt

WHAT Dbetter preparation for Tesumptien than the saving of thirty millions of dollars per annum ? This saving the Democrats in Congress have succeeded in effecting in spite of the persistent and untiring opposition of the Republicans. Twenty millions more could and would have been sayed if there had been a democraticmajority in. the Senate and a Democrat in the Presidential chair. If this government is ever to resume it must do it by pursuing the very poliey of retrenchment “instituted by the Democrats in Congress. This fact will be admitted by men "of every shade of opinion ‘on ‘the financial question. Sinice, then, the Democrats have sfu‘co';] cessfully inaugurated that policy and sirrce the Republicans are committed against it, the people can look with' hope and confidence only to the former fora true and honest movement toward resumption, | ? o

“Gov. HAYES not only fails to repus | diate Grant and Grantism, but by-si-lent acquiescence in the boldest and’ most violent attempt at military interference with the . freedom.,of elec: tion and the most deliberate and flagrant violation of law in the assess ment of department clerks for the phirpose of raising a campaign corruption fund that have yet characterized this most shameless of partisan administrations, he virtually surrenders himself to the .very temi)er and spirit which' have brought the. republican party into public contempt and odiitm. It is now plain enough, the Harrisburg Patriot avers, that the men who manage Grant have obtained complete mastery over Hayes.

~ One of the few Liberals in New York who have made up their minds to.vote for Hayes apd-¥Wheeler, has lately - written a letter—<the Hayes Liberals always do write Jettérs/goas. to let the world know tH# there i one more-~in “which h@ gives his| reasons fqrhi&jon‘.- They miy be! easily summonéd up insehis one' @ his remarks: “It is better to avoid maladministration than to expose 1t 1818 “well “that the- Liberals ‘tgké sdome method of explaining tolthe party,which they, foresware four _years ago, and which has grown worse, not better, in the mean time, for their conduct cerfainly stands in need of explanatior, bt so frank 'and ingenious'a’statement as this was scarcely Tooked for. “Better to.avoid maladministration than ‘to"expose it.” In_ other words, a m'ﬂd‘i‘éctitude is to be prefetred to a vigorous honesty; a man who keeps himself from stealing ‘And steers clear of mistakes is more to be trusted than the man who is not only horest himself, but compels oth-: ers to be honest; a man, who so long as e can show an administration of “his own free from the taint of fraud, is content to preserve a calm neutrality between tax-payers and thieves, is to be pfeferred to a man who has bold“Iy made war upon thieves wherever he has found them, and has pursued ‘them even inte the places.of refuge of his own party-as in those of the other! “Better to avoid maladministration thiah to expose it.” With what pleasure the rogues must accept this new dictum of the Liberal faith! If there is one thing the Rings dislike, it is being egposed. The Tweed Ring was greatly opposed to being exposed by Mr. Tilden, and so- wag the Canal Ring when Mr. Tilden had Wegojpe ‘Governor, Mr. Tilden, however, did not stop to donsider what might be “better” than exposing maladministration. He saw what his duty was, and went ahead ‘and did it, like a brave and true man. He did not hesitate a moment, any more than he-will hesitate when it becomes his duty, as President of the DUnited States, to ‘drive the money changers from our temple at Washington and bring back to its proper phase what has become a den of thieves, No doubt the Rings then will think: that almost anything’ is better than to “expose maladministration.” The Whisky Bing, the Grant Ring, the Belknap Ring, the Babcock, Shepherd, Delano, Williams, Robeson, and all the other countless rings will ‘be of that same opinion. ‘

This Liberal’s advice would have been more judicious if it had been in the passive, He ought to have said, “It is better to avoid maladministration than to be exposed in it,” _And he ought to have given his advice eight years ago. It is too late for President Grant, and President Tilden won’t need it, .

“KNOWN BY THE COMPANY HRE KEEPS.” Is there any proverb which more commends itsélf to sound common sense than that a man is known by the company he keeps? Thestanding excuse offered for General Grant has been that he was:surrounded and in- - fluenced by bad associates, as-though it were not the duty of a President to shyin bad company. Casey, Spencer, Butler, McDonald, Shepherd, Belknap, Babcock and others, who have been Grant’s close associates, are thoroughly disreputable, and the party managers' under whom they throve have possession of the Hayes canvass. The head of that eanvass, as Chairman of the Rgpublican National] Committee, 18 Secretary of the Interior. Mr. Chandler, who is se notoriously dissolute that he is known in Washington as “ Bibulous Zack,” was a disgrace while in the Senate on account of his habits, and his reputation is also very bad as a member of rings, and an adept in all the erooked ways of partisanship,although he is an experienced party manager. The idea of reform to follow the success of a eanvass copducted by a man who has earned such a reputation is contradictory of all human experience. ‘On the other hand the head of the democratic canvass is Abram S. Hewitt, a merchant of New York City, long and well known for business ability and personal integrity, and son-in-law of Peter Cooper. He represents the business interests in Congress, and has added largely to his reputation in the session just closed.

THE FEDERAL CONSTITUTION. Article 14, Section 4 of the Constitution redads as follows: “The validity .of the public debt of the United States authorized by law, including debts incurred for payment of pensions and bounties for servieces in, supressing insurrection or -rebellion, shall not be questioned. But neither the United States, nor any State shall "assume or pay any debt or obligation ineurred in aid in insurrection or rebellion against the United States, or any claim for the loss or emancipation of any slave; but all such debts, ogligations,and claims shall be held illegal-and void” = . '

~lThe above provision of the Constitution forever disposes of the pretence that there are. any persons in .the United States who expect to secure the payment of the war debt of tlie Southern Confederacy.

.SomE of the Washington officials (those receiving above $1,200 a year), are taxed 20 per cent. for party purposes, and others 10 per cent.. This is where the great corruption fund is supplied, aud is the natural source of the corruption of which the people have so much cause to complain. If the average salary be $2,000, 10 per cent. would yield $20,000,000, and thé vaetnment employes would be just as well off with 10 per cent. reduction, if not compelled to contribute to this “corruption” fund, ‘and”’ the people would have" nearly ' $20,000,000 less Bk Lo By, 1 AT At

To the Editor of The National Bannér:: ' © . . A stranger.upon visiting-eur town and passing along the streets will be. struck with the:little hosts of people: assembled upon every corner, engaged in heated and excited discussions upon the political aspect of 'the domin- ’ ant parties of the country. - Should he stop to listen and satisfy his curiosity as to the cause of so much anxiety, he } would fail to find the continuity of the issues held up to reason and judgment in a convincing light. If he could, with the skill of an artist, picture the thoughts of each ae they are made manifest, he would portray upon canvass a medléy that would not only astonish all lookers-on; but the actors themselves. In_the center of this ‘medley of thought would be seen congpicuously the energetic and enthusiastic admirer of Tilden—Simon Ochs, who never fails-to. catch every opportunity to put in a good word for Til- | den and reform. A little to his right might be seen Mr. Fosdick, imperatively demanding of Simon proof fdr'i his statement that Grant’s adminis‘tration is corrupt. To his left and a little in front would be seen the Methodist minister, whispering in Simon’s ear that Grant and- his hosts are as unstained of corruption as the angel’s | gown of spotless white. Simon as- ‘ serts his authority and is about to ex‘pel him, when the rev. gentleman -complacgnily hows himself behind the group. .

! SCHOOL OF CORRUPTION. " Those who are. able to éomﬁrehend the true situation of the present administration, and can formulate their conclusions without bias or prejudice to pither party, fi'ankly confess the enormous m;'mption practised by the leaders of the Grapt administration. Within the folds and fostering eare of the republican party a school of politicians have grown up whose conceptions of the administration of governmental affairs are peculation, plunder and knavery. The party, truly, has been a great school in which the elements tended to shape characters averse to honest and pure government. Good republicans, as well as demaoerats, admit this fact, and admitting it, demand @ change. Then, inasmueh as both parties agree upon this fact, the question of difference arises as to the mode of eliminating that which is the chief source of corruption. Those republicans who admit that there is a necessity for change and reform claim that the election of Tilden to the Presidency would not be the means to an end, :and that Hayes only can bring about the desired change 8o much coveted by both parties. On the other kand, the Democrats deny that Hayes is a man of sufficient power of comprehension to grasp the magnitude of the work essential to a thorough reform, and eyen if his conception is vast enough to take in the field of operation, he lacks the strepgth of character to fight the hosts of corpupt rings that are preying upon the vitals of tiie nation.

THE GROWTH OF CHARACTER, Mr. Hayes is a man of honest motives, we readily confess, but is he the man to steer the ship of reformation ? Has he the strength of character and the firmness egsential to the true reformer? Strong characters are not ‘made in ‘a day, they are things of sjow growth and require certain -circumstances for their development. The strong and sturdy oak of the forest requires a soil peculiar t¢ its growth, without which it would ever remain a weak and scrubby oak. So it is with man, . He is the growth of the seil in which he moves, and if his contact or surroundings are weak and unsuited to his growth, he will always be intellectually weak and morally unstable. Take a man that has been trained to intellectual pursuits apart from the friction of the world and you will find the element of firmness wholly wanting when he is brought in contact with the world where danger confronts him, The édication of the Spartan was based upon that fact, and. their object being to make brave and patriotic men, their system. was one that constantly brought, the. pupil in contact with the ' outside world, and made to confront danger that might at any time threaten the Spartan government. The result of such a system ©of training produced the braye Leonidas and his followers, who laid down their lives for their country’s cause at the pass of Thermopyl® when met by the vast army of Persia. Had Napoleon been brought up on German soil and among German ideas, he never would have been the general that he was. He was the oatgrowth of political ideas born and .matured upon French soil,:the friction of which among the French, intensified by their iracible natures were indispensible to the making of a Bonaparte. England could never produce a Bismarck, because the elements essential to the making of such characiers are want ing in' England, rleither could she haye produced a Washington, nor America a Wellington. In the study of great men .'we !are always charmed ‘mouided their eharacters, and which were,, Take another view of the mate ter, if you please. Men are educated’

‘i “Taw“preparatory to making law< yers of them, but he who comes out. of a law school thinking himself to be: a lawyer because of. his education in Jaw, will find that the term lawyer .comprehends mueh more than a mere ‘knowledge of law. He who has a dif-. %hltegpe to”try does not go to @& _young and inexperienced man of lawfor advice, but will select him who by ‘tong practice and contact with diffi_cult questions has become strong, firm ‘and defiant. Though the young man: 'may know just as much law, and per“haps more than the experienced lawyer, - but the elements .of ' strength which practice along can give are’ wanting, and conisequently he is not’ considered the safe man to employ. To come down a step lower and take another view of the matter: The horseman who has, a horse train, aiid desiring to employ a good man for that purpose, will not be satisfied with the theoretical man, He must know what experience the man has had in the training of horses before he will consider for a moment his proposition, If the man tells him .B §

have taken a thorough course of study in the art and science of horse training, but have had no.experience as yet upon the field, he is at once told, you are not the man I want. The man I employ to take charge of my horse must be one of experience, one that has learned his art by associating ‘with horsemen, and byjactual contact with horses upon the turf, The merchant never asks for a theoretical book-keeper, but a ' practical man in that science. He wants one that has come in contact with daily business life, and thus, as it were, by gradual aceretion has made himself a thorqugh and reliable book-keeper. _ : CORRUPT RINGS. : Now, suppose ench individual imagined himself in the place of the government, and looks at the affair from a personal business point of view, what will he see?” Rings innumerapie, that by long practice have become tllO}'oiggply,iq}'gayli‘zed, and are formidable in __t/lite‘i,r position. - They are the cradles of corruption, the chronic sores of administration, the harbor of perjurers and peculators, the curse of our Republic,a-blighting shame to-the dignity of an American citizen.. To scatter these strong and powerful cembinations and render them powerless, requires a man of firm and pogitive character—a man ‘who dares to do right in the face of strong opposition, It is desired to employ a man to'perform this gigantic work, to bring back the arteries of government to their normal state and render each function of the civil service pure, and instill therein honest rule. Two men present themselves for us to employ—Samuel J. Tilden, of New York, and R. B. Hayes, of Ohio. Let us look at.them from a business point of view, just as if we were about to employ them to perform this great work for us individually. Let us serutinize the training and character of each, and learn thereby the one most desirable to be employed, ; S

HON, #. B, HAYES.

Mr. Hayes, of Ohio, we find to be a man of good reputation. : He is alawyer by profession. He has been brought up under the influences of passive ideas. He became what he is in a soil of calmness. His surroundjngs were more that of his own nature than conflicting elements. - The external influengeg We}]e ‘i};gylt};icient to the development of a posifiye gharacter, hence Mr, Hayes is a negative man, This fact becomes more prominent when we view him as a lawyer at the Cincinnati- Bar. Having grown to full manhood under the influences of a passive environment, and leavin'g guch a soil to grapple with an environment more po;_nplex at the Cincinnati Bar, his mental forge proyed too weak to enter fully into the excitement and friction of ideas’ which success in business demanded, and ' his efforts were a series of failures, which soon compelled him to return to the more congenial atmosphere of his rural towpn. He went to the army, wasa | good soldier, py doubt. But there was nothing to make higp more positive and self-reliant, but op the goptrary, if anything the army discipline tended to make him more passive, because of his subordinate character. That is, he was under orders, and constantly subjeet to orders from his superiors in office. His thinking was done by othexs, 30 to speak, and the very nature of sueh a faet is to yender one more passive and more dependent, - He was made Governor of Ohio, but in that office he has been a mere figure-head. Notwithstanding the clamor of the press against the Ohio canal ring, and its asking the intervention of* the Governor, he has chosen ‘tv remain passiye, The ring, to be sure, is not 80 large, but yef it eoptrols all the publie works of Qhio. Fhers has been a constant and growing dissatisfaction against such proceedings, but Hayes never attempted to remove the evil; because he lacked aggressiveness and force of character essential to attack the ring. Now, in taking & full survey of Hayes, we certainly cannot .gay that we find in him the experience fitting Lim for the work we have on hand, Let us now suryey briefly our next man, 1 . SAMUEL J. TILDEN. How is it with him? Has he bad experience, and is 'he well qualified? } Does he come well recommended? My, Tilden has been schooled and brought ap ynger the influence of the most powerful politica] opgapizations. He became one of the foremost prac: titioners at the New York Bar—the stropgest Bar in' the United States. He has been a success. in all his undertakings—failure is foreign to him. He is a man of decided and positive opinions, passive in nothing, but firm in all things. Fle pttacked the corrupt Tammany ring with fearjessness and with such vigor and persistency that caused the thieves to tremble for fear. His success in breaking the cor: rupt Tweed ring and punishing the thieves, caused the people of New I;';rk fo elect him vaemorw by more than 50,000 majority over s strong and | meﬁ’m that he m’icg& do. ‘with the canal sing what he had done for the city of New York, in desfroy‘the Tweed thievery. His success jép seforsies i he 6t ot Now Yok md ‘the State proves him to.be 4 man of

unidoubted ability, and’ well “qualified ‘to take upon himself our work. He has had vast experience in doing just such work as we desire to have done, and hence commmmdw%» ) us that Tilden §8 the man ane n%

Judicial Convention.

Declaration in’ Favor of a Non- . Partisan Judieiary.

. D, Moody, Esq., for Prosecutor,

'The Demoeratic Judicial Convention for the 35th Circuit, was held at Waterloo on Wednesday, Sept, 6, '~ ‘The convention was called to order at 11 e'clock, A. »,, by J.B, Stoll,whereupon ex-Senatur Noyes, of Steuben, was elected chairman, and D, Y, Husselman, of Waterloo, degignated as secretary, - £ A committeenf three, consisting of Messrs, Williams, Phillips and Powers, was appointed to apportion the votes of the severg}'oounties composing the cireyit, This committee subsequently reported that ypon the basis of the vote cast for Gov, Hendricks in 1872, the counties were entjtled to the following representation: Noble, 45 votes; PeKalb, 38; Stenben, 19, The report was adopted, '~ = "~ A recess was ordered until 1 o’clock P. M ] ¥l

Upon the re-assembling of the cdnvention, Col, Williams, of Noble county, presented the preamble and resolutions "adopted by the Noble county Democracy on the 25th ult., favoring a non-partisan judiciary, and recoms mending that no nomination be made for Judge, but that Hon. Hiram S. Tousley be recommended to all the peovle of the Circuit as a gyitable person to occupy that position, ; Mr. Powers read a letter from Jos. A. Woodhull, of Angola, announcing himself a candidate for the nomination for Judge, but at the same time expressing a readiness to acquiesce in the decision of the convention.

~ C. A. 0. McClellan, Esq., addressed the convention af gome length, advocating a nomination, in view of the fact that a meritorious gentleman presented himself as a candidate. Mr. McClellan spoke with congiderable force and eloquence |n support of his position and in opposition to the adoption of the Noble county resalutions. Mr. Phillips, of DeKalb, replied by ‘saying if it was right not to nominate ‘a candidate against Judge Best four years ago, it was certainly right and proper not to. nominate in 1876, when an lAndpp,em;ent,, non-partisan candidate was already befgre the fngop}e: H. G. Zimmerman, Esq., 0 L.ig.(_mi'e'r, also replied to Mr. McClellan, offering a number of reasons why the non-par- ‘ tisan principle ghonld be adhered to 'in the selection of judges of our courts, ‘and pointing to the propriety ofleaving the field to Judge Tousley, whose election. was earnestly desired by a large majority of the people of Noble | county, irrespective of partyf . | Ex-Senator Noyes, temporarily va--cating the chair, said the adoption of i the rego]ntions under consideration, in their present shape, wonld certainly 'meet with disfavor in Steuben connty.

Mr, McClellan then moved that that portion of the resolution which recommended Judge Tousley as a gentleman peculiarly suited for the office of Judge, be stricken out. : Col. Williams protested against this proposition, and in an earnest and effectiye manner advocated the ratification of the preambles and resolution as adopted by the Noble county Democracy. ' - A vote by counties. was then ordered on Mr. McClelian’s motion to strike out. 'Noble and DeKalb counties voted solidly against striking out, and Steuben solidly in favor. The Noble county preambles and resolution were then '.qf(_ldpted by the following: vote;, For adoption, iyokle and DeKalb, 83' votes; against adoption, Steuben 19. . : PROSECUTING ATTORNEY. = . D. H.
