We print elsewhere a sagacious letter ad- dressed by Hon. Clarkson N. Potter to Sen- ator Kernan in relation to the policy of the demoorstic party. Mr. Potter has a just estimate of the superiority of great political ideas to the trite and vapid inanities which form the staple of party platforms. In- stead of threshing over the old straw Mr. Potter would put new seed into the ground, in the hope that more grain could be got from the harvest than the oft-threshed party straw can ever yield. The great need of our politics is fresh and progressive ideas, and ifthe democratic party could be lifted out of the old ruts and brought to adopt a policy abreast with the times the country would turn to it with hope and confidence. There have been such momentous changes in the condition of the country and of the world since our government ‘was organized that the garments of our national childhood are no longer suited to the present needs of the country. Mr. Potter calls attention to some, but we think not all, of the changes required by the altered circumstances of the Republic ; but if his tone of political thought were adopted the extent of the needed changes would be fairly brought before the only tribunal which can decide such questions. It is ab- surd to think that a great and expanding nation can always be kept in a chrysalis state, and the views of Mr. Potter deserve the careful consideration of intelligent men put of the democratic party as well as in it. Hayzs Savtes Buame.—Be it remembered that the only candidate for the Presidency before the Cincinnati Convention who has been honored with a despatch of recognition by Hayes is Blaine. Hayes was nominated as a reformer. Blaine was beaten because he was not a reformer. The first thing Hayes does is to salute Blaine, and acknowl- edge him almost in terms as the leader of the next administration. Considering that Hayes’ was nominated~ by the friends of Bristow, Morton and Conkling, it would be well for these gentlemen to put this fact in their pipes and smoke it. Tne Presipent’s Lrrriz Speece support- ing Hayes, which appeared in the Hxratp yesterday morning exclusively, was a gem in its way. Grant is becoming a good speaker, and, when Logan goes into the Cabinet of Hayes, would .be just the man to elect as 8 Senator in his place. Tue Bristow Bussix has broken.

VisIT OF THE BRAZILIAN IMPERIAL PARTY TO THE EXHIDITION—TUE CENTENNIAL GUARDS— ATTRACTIONS OF THE ADIRONDAC HUNTERS’ CAMP IN THE LANDSVOWNE RAVINE. Puapenrnia, June 20, 1876, Probably no‘class of men connected with the Exhibi- tion have been more abused by hypercritical corre. Spondents or more misrepresented by witty critics than | the Centenmal Guards, These uniformed servants of the entertainers and tho entortained at the Exhibition | have been accused of every form of incapacity, from rudeness to ignorance, until the general public has come to regard them as the most useless and unnec- essary of supernumeraries, It was probably true at the opening of the Exhibition that among the 900 men onthe hastily organized force were many worth- | Jess persons, but avery brief trial was sufficient to demonstrate that fact, and the work of “weediug out" | soon became quite extensive. Ignorance of the grounds and the location of buildings formed the staple of well grounded complainis by visitors against these men, as ® largo majority of the appointees knew nothing what- ever of tho details of the Exhibition before being placed ‘on duty and were not adepts in mastering the requisite information. But aside from the anavordable ev incident to the large number of appointments where- | by men who should never have been recommended by Tespectable persons and others who knew as little of the Exhibition as any other strangers, tho fact is ap- Parent that the Centennial Guard, as now composed, ts one of the most intelligent and taithful bodies of men in the country, The popular idea that theso guards are chiefly mon who werodriven to work after a probation of strect corner lounging or through fail- uro in busiaess is wholiy erroneous, for a rigid inquiry has shown that there is scarcely a man in the whole force wno bas not a trade, pro- fession or business spectaity which, in ordinary times, could be made remunerative. Further than that, a large proportion of these guards are men of educa- tion, talout and capability, while very many of tnem have been men of prominence and large wealth. The flood of broken fortunes which, after the panic, swept over the country with such resistless force has doubt- leas spent its forec, but at the Centeunial grounds may any day be seen some of the victims of its devustation., Here tn blue uniforms aromen who, only a fow years Ago, counted their income by tons of thousands, but bow are right glad of an opportunity of earning their $2aday. Several of the merchants, a number of the manulacturers, lumbermen and coal dealers, with a sprinkling of importers and jobbors of a few years ago, many of whom weathered the squall of the financial storm, but afterward went down in the furry of the tempest, now walk tueir beats en the Centennial grounds, grateful tor the chance of carning an honest penny. Among tho restcan be found iawyers, physi clans, one minister, bank cashiers, officials of once successful corporatior and any quantity of clerks, bookkeepers, salesmen and skilled hanics, They have come from all points of the compass, and, with- out exception, have produced the very hghest Trecommendations—these bearing the signatures of United States Senators, Congressmen, Cab- inet officers, Mayors, preachers and business men of | the most undoubted Intogrity and honor, and showing | that the applicants come to Philadelphia not because of lack of tutent or ability, but because of the dulness of xeneral business. The army 1s also. represented colonels, majors and captains, some of whom are gi uates West Point. Yale, Harvard and other eal: leges have their graduates in the force, but it is im- possible to make a corroct estimate ef the number of these who have beon titted for or have held high social | positions, as “it 1s only by accidental and not often welcome recognitions of old acquaintances that their history can be discovered. Compelled io yield under adverse circumstances, they have mado the best of their unpleasant situations, and, of course, dislike to reter to or be reminded of the painful past. The proportion of Ponnsylvanians in the body 1s compar: atively small, and ts largely made up of persons who have iuiled in business or been unable. to obiin em- ploy went tor their tatents or skiil in the iron ond coal regions. The South and West contribute mauy excel- lent men, and the valance are mostif trom New York, New Jersey and Delaware, Tho work of the guards on tho grounds consists of six hours at their posts and six hours on reserve dusy | 9 roxt or recreation, but they are only permitted to leave the grounds on special passes, which each guard re- cvives every four days. These pusses give the five | hours during the day and eleven snd a baif hours at that, uithough their pay 18 only night, me Is so divided that they have abun: their to profil by the instructive objects everywhere to be seen at the Exhibition.
