An Irresistible Power.
N. Y. Star.
The National Democratic ticket
will be elected in Nov. next be
cause it represents, in lead-
candidates, an order of thought
lose and motive of a higher
Standard than has been generally
felt before in American politics. Of
such order of thought Mr. Cleve-
land and Hewitt are to be taken as
I representative types. Their acts
are based on convictions. They are
not with party, right- or
i are only with a party when it
j is, in their estimation, right. They
will not tolerate any iniquity inside
of their party, out of policy. They
embody a principle and act from a
principle. They stand ready to ex-
their functions in office if it
is the people's desire, but they value
the principle more than the office,
and there is a line they will not pass
for any considerations of place and
position. They are not to
speak their minds if abuses demand
it, within or without the party. They
hold that one's own house should be
kept as clean as their neighbor's
the opposite side of the street.
Minds like these attract others of
like equality and motive as assist
ants., An honest man with
capacity can have none other
than honest men about him; and
although on first taking the reins
he may be unable of all
defective natures, he will do so by

Vat the drone of beetle and bee, the

Nor proud, Imperial nor queen cups

Not these alone

One heaven bends above;
The lowliest head ofttimes hath sweetest rest;
