Reflect A Little

Why üon't -Mr. Blaine agree wlth the defendaut to push along the libel suH ? His haste In uing the Indiunapolis paper makes itstrauge tlial he should want to delay the trial uulil after the election. It was scandalous to publish the article eveu if it was true, bulsincu Mr. Blaine has excited thecurioslty of the country on the subject, let all the lacts come out, liurt wliorn tuey raay.- Jackson Patriot. Ah ! Indeedy ! But doesn't it just glimmer across yoiy abstruse visión tliat Mr. Blaine ha pushedlhiiigs - much faster tlian the derendants wanted it pushed, or the deuiocruts either' Tlie wish was father to the thought above wiitten, and the Patriot's great desire to strike Mr. Blaine lias led it into a premature and uiitruthful assertion. In the meantime, Mr. Patriot, why doesn't Mr. Cleveland sue somebody for libel ? The gates are wkle open- several responsible papers liave laid themselves liable by publishing a statement of that indivulual's disgraceful and shanieful escapades. Don't j'ou really think it would be a standing shame and black disgrace upon the peuple of the American nsition to elévate to the cliief magistracy of this republic, a man so steeped in licentious. ness as the caudidate of the opposition is openly asierted to be? Is not the very thought repngnant to every good citizen every lover of pure hoDies? uvery man wlio respect virtue nid decency f every man wlio has any att'ection lor the mother wbo bore him f or the sisters who are deur I to hini ? or the daughters who look up to ! him for protection? or the wife whose lite is as deur to him as his own y Think of it! Bring the matter to your own home ! AVould you invite such u man to tninu-le wlth your fainily, even thou;li lie weie president?
