whom he had colled: that the whole

"Thirty thousand, one hundred and fifty-five dollars," was the answer. - "Less than $2,000 move are wanted," said Mr. Thorpel "What do you say to that?"' "Two hundred dollars more for me!" was tlje response from one of the heaviest of tfae subscribers; and then the supplementary subscriptions, large and small, came pouring in for ten minutes faster than the Treasurer could record them. As soon as there was a short pause he summed up the amount again, and rising to his feet, quietly MuL; 'tv "Thirty-two thousand, four hundred and sixty dollars f 460 for shrinkage!" The scene that followed can oulv be

f imagined by those who know what an

metrbus a church debt is to a. devoted congregation, and who are familiar with the ways in Wkk)b Methedists are wont to express their feelings. "I preceive," said Mr. Thorpe, rising to his feet, after the tempest had subsided, "that all these pledges are to be Said to-morrow, at noon, at the. First atiooal Bank. It is easy to guess who is at the bottom .of all tins bust nees, and I see him now, standing near the door. ' "No scenes forme,"' whispered the banker to his minister. "I'm going. Make my excuses." And he slipped out of the door and walked quickly away. "Walter Franklin is the man," continued the parson, "and he is leaving the house this moment. Will some one bring him back ?" But that was a vain suggestion. Mr.

' "Uncle Tom's Cabin." John P. Jewett was asked how he came to publish Mrs. Stowe's "Uuele Tom's Cabin." :; "I suspqet it was principally because I . was. raWdahti-siavery man, although the fact that I had previously been the publisher of -a book by the Rev. Henry "Ward Beecher may hate had something to do with it. After a careful examination I concluded that the story would not only repay the cost of publication in book form, but would yield some profit. Possibly I was helped to that conclusion by my firm conviction that the volume would prove a strong anti-slavery document. At all events I. expressed a willingness to publish it, and the next thing was to arrange the terms. Prof. -Stowe was in favor of selling the manuscript for a sum down. 1 tell wife,' said he to me, that if she can get a good black silk dress or $50 in money for the story,? he had better take it' " "Do you believe that you could have bought the stor for $50 ?" "I believe I could haye bought it for $25. "So large were the orders for the book that from the day I first 'began to

print me cigiu presses never siuppeu, day or night, save Sunday, for six months, and even then there were complaints, that tie' volume did not appear fast enough. In a little while I was able to inform Prof, and Mrs. StoweN that their percentage alroady amounted to $10,000, and although my contract with them required me to give a note only I would pay them that sum ia cash." "" " '' "How did they receive.your information?" "They seemed a little dazed by the news. The sum was so vastly beyond t&?til:C tl'U expected, or had heretofore possessed, that it appeared to them like a great fortune. When they called at my office I handed Prof. Stowe my check for $10,000, payabje to his order.4 "How many copies, of 'Uncle Tom' did you publish?"

Why He Wanted Office. A gentleman who hod seen much ot public life, once told the following story to illustrate how men are willing to serve the-State if they, thereby, may serve themselves. Tho. reasons given were certainly as sensible as those under -which many of our Congressmen and legislators are chosen, and the man was very likely a more honest man than most politicians. In a certain town not far from Boston, there lived a largo family, of several generations, by the narae-of C . At one of the elections, wherein members of the Legislature wore chosen.

William O was a candidate. The whole family, were present distributing votes for him. "Won't yoa vote for William?" asked one of tho family of a citizen. "Why should I? . I never heard that William had any qualification for n Legislator."' "Well," replied the relative, "I'll toll you how 'tis. William's got a leetla behindhand, and wants to shin trie his

Not a single, defalcation of State rand has Occurred tCatl this time, and the affairs of the' State Ore in a better 'cmtditfdu to-day than ever before in our history. The State of Iowa Is absolutely fi oo from CebC, which cannot be said of any other State In the Union, save only one. and bf that even I am hot absolutely sure. Dear in mind that during this time we passed through the War ot the Rebellion, vrnen the expenditures- were neceesarily largolv Increased, for Iowa furnished nearly t'O.OCW soldiers to flght for our Government, a larger proportion than any other Htate. It Is a proud wcord, my feUow-olttana, that we have to refer to. a State cf quite 3,000,000 ot people, and owing no man a dollar! Such it statement cannot he made bv any Democrate State In the Union and probaMy never will be. Thts, too, while we have carried on our extensive internal improvements, which are equal to those of any of our sister States. We have expended oyer 10,000,0u0 in public buildings, and have -most of them of the best character. . The only public buildings tho State had when the Republicans succeeded to control waa the old i &pitol at Iowa city; the Mount Pleasant Insane Hospital, had been commenced, and the Fore Madison, penitentiary (that necessary adjunct to the Democratic party. ) AH others' are new and valuable, and all paid for. There is another fact in this connection to which I desire to refer you, and that is the State taxes. An examination yhich have just made shows the average of State tax levies, which includes all the oxpenaesof the State Government, to have been less than si 1-2U mills for the past twenty-oifrht years, and that upon a valuation of only one-third the actraal value of the property a rate much less than that of any other State in the Northwest the several litate tax levies being as follows:

There is yet another matter for our congratulation as members of the Republican Sart which we all should know, and that is 1st since the people of the State gave control of its affairs to the Republican party our publio schools have had most marvelous growth. By examination of the publio record I find that the total number of schoolhouses in Iowa in 1S53, the last year of Democracy, was but 1,0.0. estimated to be worth 1TU,5IU. a trifle over SlSO each, and vnly 107 of vfhloh were brick or stone.

In proof that It has not changed, 1 ask you to read the very first plank m its last national platform of 'but three years ago. "i. We pledge ourselves anew to the constitutional doatrines and traditions of tho Demooratio party, as illustrated by the teachings and example of a long line of Democratic statesmen and patriots, and embodied in the platform of tho last national oonventlon of the party." This is the feast to .which you are invited the standing menu of Demociacy.

to and taken from the ranks of the people themselves, he seized his pen and affixed to the bill the name of Abraham Lincoln, and the Homestead bill became the law of the land.

To the Republican party, and that party -only, are the people indebtedlf or this benef-'

icout and just measure, and for that oat alone it merits perpetual existence, and for its extreme opposition to it the Democratic party deserves external execration. Yet this same party endeavors to make us believe it rs the friend of the people; whon pledged by its own disputed and uncontrovertible record it has always voted otherwise.

What baa the Homestead bill done for Iowa? Who knows the happy homes in our

own ueauuuu ptara mauo so unaer toe visions of the Renubllcah measure?

I have not the tlcivres at command as

into effect nearly 000,000 homestead entries have beeu made in the United States upon whioh are living to-day at the lowest calculation over two and a half millions ot peoSte, 'a population equal to the six States of lunesota, California, Oregon, Nevada, .Coloradojuid FldlldO. " The reports of tho Interior Department at Washington show that up to one year ago the number of 00103 ot homestead lands were tin.SOH.ftj? more acres than contained in the nine States of New Hampshire, Bhode Island, Connecticut, New York, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland,. Vermont and Massaebnsetta. Thiuk of it a moment my fellowcitizens, the gladsome results which have followed the enactment of this measure, a population greater than that of our own good State, and, having reflected, then toll me, are you prepared by your votes to give indorsement to the Demooratio party which bent all its energies in the endeavor to defeat the granting Of homesteads to men who were not able to purchase homes, and yet glories in the doctie and traditions of its own history. Heretofore I called your attention to the proud position in Iowa in respect to onr condition to-day, and especially the marvelous manner In which the financial concerns of the State have been managed. Not a dollar of State indebtedness Compare it with our neighbors of Missouri, a State possessing equal natural advantages with our own, and a little larger in population, but which has been unfortunate for meat of its lif e,iu that it has been under control of this same ancient and reactionary Democratic party, which is only fruitful in promises of reform, but yet never redeems in performance, The State debt in 1S65, when the Bepublican party was placed in power, was over 34,00.),( 0 . During the six years in which that party held control it was reduced onehalf in volume, leaving it about 17,CW,000 when the Democrats wero reinstated. Since that time only about one million has been paid, thus compelling the people to contribute largely of their substance in order to meet the interest charges alone. Would any of you prefer Democratic management in Iowa? Yet this same party calls loudly for reform, and wants you and me to vote for its candidates, that it may improve Uu condition of the different States, Answering for Iowa, I do not hesitate to give the verdict of the people, as it wtil be rendered in October, and that by one of the largest majorities given even In this State of large majorities: "The Demooratio party has been weighed in tho balance and found wauting. We dare not exchange a known good for a vacancy."

The Outlook for 1881. In 1880 there were 369 electoral votes, and it required 185 to elect Garfield and Arthur had 214. In 1884, through the increase of representation under the new census, there will be 401 electoral votes, of which 201 will constitute a majority. If the States should vote then as they voted in 1880, the division would be as follows:

item? Areyonreaay ror mis repast,.Again, the Demooratio horn-blowers talk to us of its earnest desire for the betterment of the condition of the laboring dosses of

Host of us can remember when this vast region of country west of the Mississippi river waa a wilderness, and after its purchase it was said to have been a bad investment it wo-ild never be settled, and would vastly increase the cost of Government because of the extension of our border line. Answer was

made all through the over-crowded East, Why not give it away to actual settlers? And we recall the cry that went up from tho factories and warehouses and citios of the

older States: "Homes for the homeless'

lands for the landless." Petitions were prepared and ciroulnted, receiving the signatures of hundreds of thousands of workingmen, asking the Government to permit thom to move upon the unoccupied domain and

They received no encouragement from the Democrstio administration, and it was

notunuu arcer tno Republican party came Into being that even a bill was Introduced for such purpose. Mr. Grow, a Republican member of the House of Representatives.

early in 1855 introduced a bill pro iding for

nomesteaa entries in tne unoccupica ana unsold public lauds. It met the determined

opposition of the Demot-ratio party, being

aenouncea as -uriconsuwroionar ana -per-nlcious," and was finally defeated by Democratic votes, every member of that party but ten voting against it, and every Republican voting for it Again in 1850it came up for action in the House, wherein, by tho favorable election of 1S58, the Republicans had now a majority, and, although igain the subject, of violent Democratic hostility, it finally passed, the Republicans alt voting for the bill, and the Democrats nearly ail voting against it Tho bill was sent to the Senate, where by tho vote of Vice Prerident Breckinridge it was defeated. At tho next session of Congress, in Maroh, lfift), the bill was again introduced, waa promptly passed bv the Republicans in the House, aud every vote against it was a Demooratio vote. ft then wont to the Senate, and the Republicans again passed it. and sent it down the avenue to the White House, where presided Mr. llu'-iianan, the last of the Democratic Presidents, and, being presented to him, was vetoed.

But further. We remember the election of

1600, when the pooplo of tho United States gave such grand indorsement to the principles advocated by tho Republican party, prominent among which was tho idea of the Homestead bill, which was cxchisively a Bepublicun measure. At the assembling of Congress the bill was again introduced and discussed, but despite the opposition of the Democratic members it triumphantly passed both houses of Congress, was enrolled and signed bv a Republican Speaker and a Be. publican Vice president and, being presented at tho White House, where net a representative ot the people, a man bolonging

With 171 sure electoral votes,

Republicans would have to secure just

States in order to carry the Presidency.

New York alone would do it with six votes to spare. If New York were gained, as it was in 1880, every other

doubtful State wighli be yielded to the Democrats. Or if Connecticut, Indiana and New Jersey were gained, the Republicans could win without New

York. Or, again, if they secured California and Florida, in both of whioh

they have an -excellent chance, they could safely lose New Jersey. Or, still

again, if they carried. Connecticut, California, Florida and Virginia, they could win without Indiana, New York and New Jersey. We have classed as doubtful all that may fairly be embraced in the list. Three months ago Ohio might with some show of reason have been challenged. If it were lost to the Republicans this year, as there seemed then some reason to fear, it might be regarded as doubtful next But Ohio has now straightened up and may fairly be counted among the sure Republican States. Of those which the Democrats

carried in 1S80 the Jeputolicans nave a

good outlook in California, New Jersey and Florida- As the Republicans have but thirty votes to gain among the doubtful States, while the Democrats have seventy-two, it is clear that the chances are on the Republican side. Philadelphia Press.

of the same number as Carey's, and that the eldest boy answered to the description given of him at tie tune when fie appeared as a witness in the Dublin trials, tended to confirm their suspicions Between Madeira and this port the steward and Williams made it their especial business to find out conclusively whether the man

was the notorious character tney oeueveo

him to be. They had plenty ot opportunities for doing this, as Cnrey and his wife freely indulged te liquor throughout tho voyage, and the secret w is wormed out of the children without rt uoh 'difficulty, so that a few days before the arrival of the Kinfauns Castln iu Tabl'5 Bay all doubt

were removed as to Mr. Power s identity. He had an unlimited supply of ready cash, and both hts wife and children were treated to anything they might desire.
