Tiik Now York Evening I'ost thinks ' that however tlic campaign may end, greater caution will heroafter ho observed in making nominations. Tnti State canvass lias begun, several appointments liavo been filled and today, Senator Hampton and others will speak at AValhnlla. Thk Spring Hold Republican nominates President Arthur as successor to Mr. Blainoin cnso the latter withdraws from tho eouyass. Candidate St. John, of tho prohibition party, counts coiiiUontly on receiving ono million votes. If ho do, Blaino will bo largoly tho loser. Thk SpringtioUl Republican believes tlmt if Blaine wins, tho Republican conventions of the future will go from bad to woVso. An exchange commenting upon the above says: "Will the Republican explain how u convention can do worse than tho National liepublican Convention of 1884?" Sensible! _ The Republicans in New York, wo are glad to eay, are Warring among thomsolves now, and serious efforts are now boing mado to kick out of ofllco tho Chairman of the Ronublican Stato Exccutivo Coirnnitlcc. He is chargcd with being unfriendly to Mr. Blaine ami lus cause. Some Republican postmasters in Indiana arc Quietly suppressing Democratic newspapers, instoad of delivering them. Tho Indianapolis Telegraphy a German paper, got tired of it, and sent around a detectivo who bought some of tho papers with tho wrappers all on from the postmaster at Garrett, Ind., for paper rags. A United States marshal has gono to Garrett to arrest tho postmastor. Democuats in Now York report tho outlook as growing bettor mul better every day for Cleveland. Ono of the signs is the formidable Independent movement tlmt has sprung up in the business oxchanges, where Clovcland and Hondricks clubs are being formed. The one in the Produce Exchange mtm&ors 7,30 members. Two hundroil Republican members of the Stock Exchange have signed tho call for tho organization of an Iudopondent Cleveland club in the exchange. Tiik Young Republican Club, of Brooklyn, a few nights ntro. vntfvi support lilaipo and to engago actively in tho national canvass. Though the majority of the club favors Mr. Blaine's eloctlon, a large and very highly respectable minority aro desperately opposed to him, and will make their vigorous opposition folt not only in Brooklyn, but throughout tho State of Acw York.

This with tho Democratic and Greenback tusion, tho Pro; hibition tickot in tho Hold, tho dofcction of largo immbors of old lino RcpubliI cans from lilaine, roudors tho Stato a very doubtful ono and oven gives tho uomocrauc ami Uroonback fusionists hope of parrying tho doctoral voto in November. Some church pressuro has boon | brought to boar upon Ilenry Ward Beechcr becauso of his cloclarod purpose to support Governor Clovoland for tho Presidency. In reply to fathorly and Christian counsel of prominent members of Plymouth church, ho said:1 "I deny tho right of ony one in Plymouth church or out of it to question i my motives in politics, and if tho majority of tho church members fool that my courso is injurious to tho I church, my resignation is at tlifetr (lis posal." The veteran pastor intimated that ho was independent enough to livo without Plymouth church, and niulcr the circumstances would not submit to dictation. Hurrah for Boccher1 ?m i ?? Judge J. N. Scott, of Indianapolis, Ind., and a brother-in-law of Senator Benjamin Harrison, has declared for Clovelaud. Ho has always boon a Republican. In his letter to the president of the Indepcndont Republican Club ho says: "After much hesitation and long and maturo consideration, mv nnni'OA So ? T 1 11 "j xuiiiou in HU)Y UIVIU" III IJ1U.

We arc glad that the efforts to cffect a compromise and conciliation between the half-breed and stalwart fathers lias signally failod. It, was hoped that a meeting could bo arranged between (vtiinii mill iJIUIIIU| IIIIL II, 1111II.11 y 11118cnrried, and gloomy Blaine i8 in statu quo. It is now said that Arthur had not stated that ho would call, and that Blaine's managers sent a proposition to Arthur which they believed would tlx matters all right and acted as if everything were settled. Now they are discomforted, but say that a meeting will yet bo arranged. The Arthur mon laugh at the predicament of the Blaine managers and intimate that llwvo will bo no mootiiiff. ISx-Oavernor Cornell's friends arc glad that the arrangement miscarricd and are working to prevent a new one. A tueaty, oil'ensivo and defensive, has been signed, sealed and ratified between James G.

For certain considerations Mr. Cameron is to come to lllaine's rescue in the approaching election, and to assure him a victory in Pennsylvania, Blaine wants Cameron's money, inlluencc and manipulation in Ohio, and in pursuance of the contract entered into, he will have it. What will bo the outcome of it, tho future alono can tell. We hope it will prove a miserable failure, and that on the ides of November next Blaine & Co. will be buried under tho weight of public indignation. ? | Caul Sciiuk/. made bis first appoaranco in Ohio at Cleveland last Thursday evening find wns? nwotori .? ? * < _ . 0 , ? n . uui^u uv aii nil- I mouse audience.

Furthermore, ho is nearly always ready to back up his opinions with money, if necessary, and whenever he goes into a stock speculation ho has a largo following if ho so chooses.

Gonoral . Duller ipthe subject'of this eloquent denunciation. and it was penned by tho giftod Clms. A. Dana. Mr. Dana says of him: Hated by some, condemned by mdTny and distrusted by all, this bad man, with his crookcd ways,' foul methods, distorted mind and yioked heart, glories in these moral dnformi* ties, flaunts them constantly boforo tho public eye and traffics in them as political merchandise.

To t his complexion have wo come at last. To-dny, this same great daily, edited by tho same Dana, is tho champion of Butler's cause, and advocates hisc'.aims and fitness for an election to tho Chief Magistracy of the nation. Ah, indeed! Have we to this complexion como at hist? It was once the proud boast of the Sun that it shone for all, but today it shines only for tho "bad man, with his crooked ways, foul methods, distorted mind and wickcd heart." Aro tho moving spirits of tho Sun possessed of unbalanced minds, or has a bargain been struck) or why is it that a leading metropolitan journal is made to stultify itself beforo tho country after this manner? I'erhaps, after all, a truo theory for tho whole matter may be found in tho fact that Mr.' Dana hns more hate than conscience. Hating Mr. Cloveland and dosplsing Mr. lilnine, ho naturally seeks for some candidate to whom his support and iullucnco may freely bo given. Shutting his eyes to tho past record of his mail and forgetting his own past utterances, ho sails headlong On with the name and ensign of tho Hero of Now Orleans at his mast-head. Wo hopo for Mr. Dana's sake, and for tho sako oi ueccncy, lor (ho good unci wellbeing of journalism, tlmt the Sun will drop (he Butler cause. An Appeal to the People. The National Democratic Executive Committee has issued an addross to tho people on the political situation, and j after calling attention to tho promises and pledges of reform made by the Democratic party and what it is contending for, rofers to the fact that tho Republican party, in its desperato effort to elect lilaino and continuo in power, has the powerful aid of an immense army of government officials and employees upon whom it levies assessments, organized bodies of men who have grown rich by a high protective tariff and want that tariff perpetuated, a host of unscrupulous contractors and jobbers who have grown wealthy upon public plunder, who freely contribute funds to avoid risk of beinjj called to account for the evil methods by which their woalth was obtained, and tho corporations which havo seized upon the public domain, and who know they will be compelled to surrender tho lands they hold if tho Democratic party comes into power, anil arc therefore willing1 to contribute freely to keep tho Republican party in power. From tho sources tho Republicans aro drawing tho campaign fund which is to be in supporting Blain. The address concludes: This 'comniittco has not troops of office holdors at its command. It will notagrco to sell the future legislation of Congress for money paUl;iiow into its pasty treasury. It will notpromiso immunity to thioves. . It will not contract to uphold any corrupt bargain heretoforo made by tho Republican partv with any corporuI tion for all tho wealth which such cor poration can offer. It appeals to the people against one and all of thoso opponents thus corruptly banded togel nor against tho frioiule of good government. Tho number of all these opponents is small but their wealth is great and it will bo unscrupulously used. An activo and vigorous campaign mnst bo mado against them. Their paid advocatos must bo met ancl dofeatod in debato upon tho platform and in discussion in nowspapers.

I am now in excellent health. 1 am confident that tho Lung Restorer saved my life and my neighbors are of the same opinion. It is the best Lung Remedy ever made in my opinion. Dr. II. promised me tliat. he would write to the manufacturers and tell them of the wonderful cure It made in my case. Statement of Mr. ttciij. F. Hearnond. Early in November, 1881, whilo sowing on the machine, my wife was taken with a aororc t>k lior oi<lo> -wlaicli >vuo SUUU followed by hemorrhages from her lungs and a severe cough. Fever commenced, she could neither eat nor sleep, and iu a few weeks she was reduced to a living skeleton. T' attending physician told mo that he ciH.ught one of her lungs was entirely gone. She could not retain the most delicato nourishment on her stomach. I then agreed with Dr. Sullivan, my family physician, to call Dr. llolloway in consultation. They made a final examination of tho patient and pronounced the case hopeless. Dr. llolloway then suggested tho Rrcwcr's uiiiig iu;sm)n;v as .a last resort, i sent tor a bottle and gave her a close. I found that she could retain St on her stomach and after about the third dose, I began to notice some improvement in her condition. I continued the medicine regularly, and by the time she had taken two bottles, she was able to walk about the house. She is now in better health than she has enjoyed for several years. I believe that Lung Restorer saved her life. We have a family of six children, some of them grown."
