Monticello wants an Independent greenback paper.—Rochester Inde pendent. The Democrat is sufficiently greenback for them ; and the above is more a suggestion than an actual statement of facts. Judge Whittaker, before whom the Louisiana bandit, Anderson, was tried, convicted and sentenced to the peni•atiary, has commenced suit against Secretary Sherman for charging him with being a defaulter to the government to the amount of $600,000 while he was collector at New Orleans Judge Wbittake can’t be hooted down by the lies of Johnny Sherman and his claquers.

A lady who eight years ha* been a teacher in one of the public schools of St. Louis died a few days ago. She was the only child of a widowed mother, and►was dearly loved by the many pupils she had taught in her classes. In recounting her devoiion to her scholars, and her conscientious, blameless career the Post says: “Her life was undoubtedly sacrificed in her efforts to fulfill faithfully her duty as a teacher.”

The Valparaiso Messenger says: It has been suggested th At Valparaiso would be the most proper and suitable place at which to hold the next Democratic Congressional Convention. It is easy of access from all parts of the District by railroad, and its hotel accommodations are firstclass in every respect. We hope the committee will see proper to give Valpo the preference, and Valpo will endeavor to treat the Convention in right royal style. It is getting to be a little dangerous to discharge servants in St. Louis, unless the insurance companies are willing to take the risks. A gentleman had occasion to rid himself of a negro boy on Monday morning, and that night his residence was discovered to be on fire in four different places. The discharged servant had made his plans to mete out his revenge for the loss of his place, but the plot was discovered in time to save the family, who would have perished in the flamesPresident Lee in his remarks on the prospects of the 1., D. & C. R. R. before the City Council of Delphi on Tuesday of last week, made the following statement: It is a moral certainty that the building of this road will be followed by the construction if a narrow gauge on the line of the canal from Toledo to Attica and thence St. Louis. We will then be placed much in the position of Chicago nt present, fi-ora whence the freight tariff to the seaboard,owing to competition, is but seventeen cents per hundred, or less than one hi If the rates paid here. Mr. Lewis J. Jennings, for many years editor-iB-ehief of theNewYorw Times and now the london correspondent of the New York World, surmises that one of the objects of the Wall Street Shylocks in crying down silver is to shake out the bonds from European holders at a low price. He says the European holders are now selling them as fast as possible, and that no one is buying. He wants to know of the World, therefore, how is it they are “absorbed” so easily in New York? If they are deemed good enough for investment by American buyers, he asks, why should they be told that they are unsafe for European buyers? The hue and cry against silver is a sharp trick of the Wall Street Shylocks to “bull” the market, "nothing more, nothing less.” Gold has steadily run down until it is lower than at any time since the suspension of specie payments in 1862. The silver bill has not therefore me& hopes and predictions of the fthylocks in its influence upon the gold market. All sorts of dire calamities were prophesied. Gold was to go up, and a general collapse was to folIpw. There was to be consternation in all the money centers of Europe and America. Just the opposite of ail ihis, however, has happened. Gold has declined, only a few bonds have been returned, exports are in excess of imports and the balance of trade is our favor. All these facts trouble the Shylocks and their organs, and they endeavor to account for them by saying that it was not the Bland bill that became the law. But this subterfuge will not satisfy thinking peo« pie. The hue and cry raised by the Shylocks and their organs was in all regards dishonest- Their purpose was to keep business depressd and continue the shrinkage of values, that those who control money might increase their gains by multiplying the misfor* *.unes of the people. The senate amendments were in that direction* and Hays’ veto had the same purpose. But the people triumphed, though the Victory was shorn of some of its trophies by the senate, and John Sherman may, to some extent, make the great measure of relief less potential for good than was intended by those who demanded for silver all the privileges conferred upon gold. One good effect upon public sentiment will be secured by the false predictions of the Hhylock organs; they will not be believed in future when they antagonize the welfare of the country by their veuul mendacity.

SENATOR M’DONALD

Hm a Brief Interview Wit* Jay Gewld, aaA Telle Him «• Laave Hinßeeaa. [Washington Correspondence Chicago Ttaea.] It is Judge Thurman’s intention at an early day to press the consideration of his bill forcing the Union Pacific railroad to give the government good security for its indebtedness. Under the ruling of the supreme court the interest is not due until the maturity of the bonds. When this time comes it is folly to suppose that the government will ever realize the enormous sum that will be due at that period, for the reason that the accumulated interest and amount of principal will aggregate a much larger sum than the entire road and its proper :ies are worth. The Union Pacific railroad company, after having had the use of the road and its immense profits for years, would throw up the road to the government rather than pay their indebtedness. Jay Gould is underst >od to be close pressed in carrying the stock of this road, and he is here watching very closely any legislation looking toward forcing the road to pay its dues to the government. Any such result would undoubtedly depress the stock, and possibly prove his ruin. has been a successful operator with the legislature at Albany, and he has tranrferred his Albany tactics here. His mode is to come directly to his men, and employ no third party or agents. Senator M’Donal J, whois a member of the judiciary committee, before whieh the legislation on the subject of the Union Pacific is pending, went to his room the other day, and he discovered a litt'e man in black curled up in his most comfortable easy chair before the open grate. The little, keen, black whiskered, darkly attired visitor arose with a monehalant air when Senator M’Donald entered, and said: “You are Senator M’Douald, I presume?” “Yes," said M’Donald. “My name is Jay Gould, of New York,” said the visitor. “Ah!” was the reply. “You are a member of the senate judiciary committee, are you not?” “I am.” said M’Donald. “I have very heavy interests pending before your committee.” said Gould, with great emphasis upon the word “heavy.” And then with a sinister grin he added: “I have come to see you about them,” slowly and carefully emphasizing the word “see,” as he looked M’Donald straight In the face. Gould’s manner put M’Donald upon his guard at once. He arose and said in a frigidly tone of voice, “Mr. Gould, you can not see or talk to me upon the subject of Union Pacific interests except in the judiciary committee room and before the committ e.” Gould laughed in reply, in a sort of contemptuous way, as If he had no faith in M’Donald’s protestations, and begun in a wheedling way, after the fashion of the old gentleman in black to talk about his interests, how much they were involved, when M’Donald put an end te the conversation bv putting on his hat and coat as he said: “Mr. Gould, I am going out of this room. I shall not listen to you, and I think you had better go, too.” This ended the conversation, as Gould saw thut M’Donald was in earned.

A STRANGE SUIT.

A Man Sum a Church for Alienating the Affections of His Wife and Receives *2,500 Damages [Bryan, Ohio.] An interesting case has just been closed in the court of common pleas of this county. The case involved the authority of church or state. Joseph Lichty brought suit against John Holdeman and others in SIO,OOO damages for enticing his wife to abstain from marital relations to him.— It appears from the evidence that all the parti-ss were members of the denomination called “Church of God,” a branch of the Mennonites. In May, 1875, the society of which John Lichty and his wife were members, for divers reasons not shown in court, excommunicated him and placed him under the ban termed “avoidance.”— This means that remaining members shall shun and ayoid the erring or excommunicated brother until he repent and is again received into the church. It makes it the duty of the wife, she being a member, not to eat at tne same table with her husband, nor talk with him except when of absolute necessity; neither to sleep with him, under penalty of being expelled from the church and being forever lost for disobedience. She could, however, keep house for lim and family, which consisted of four children. This she did for a year, he in the meantime patiently and kindly trying to induce her to act the wifely part with him. But on different occasions, wlien he had nearly succeeded in winning her back to him, these priests or teachers would st p in and warn her that she <*ould not take such a step without the consent of the church, and that if she did her soul would be forever lost. He then rented his farm and moved away, to be from under this influence, thinking his wife would go with him; but this influence was brought to bear upon her, and she would not leave her society.

Thus did these men on the one hand seize upon tbo strongest cor. 1 , of the human heart, religious zeal and faith, to keep this wife from her husband, that they might, on the other hand, grasp the cords of human affection and love to make a man bow to the church in which he did not worship. They were willing to break up a family which had been maintained in peace and love for sixteen year*, to compel this man to do their bidding. They made their own defence in court, not believing in lawyers. The Bible was their law book, from which they read in parts from Numbers to Revelation. Simon Mennil, of Holland, who lived in the sixteenth century, was their commentator. By the Bible they sought to justify their course, and, under the plea of religious tolerence, guaranteed by the constitution, claimed a verdict In their favor. It is perhaps saie to say that such a people and such a defense was nevee before seen or heard in the courts of this country. It was the sixteenth and nineteenth century face to face. The testimony being all in, and the arguments having been made, ths case went to the jury, who soon brought in a verdict giving $2,500 damages to the plaintiff. The case has excited much interest.

A certain Justice of the Peace over in Starke courty has a way of marry Ing a couple peculiar to himself. He anys: “Arise Hal and Tom,grab hands! Hitched ? Fork over two dollars, and ity all right,” and that is all there is to It. There are “no cards and no cake.”

Temperance and the Bible.

Take down your Bible and hunt up the following: Who was the first drunkard? —Genesis ix., 20, 21. Who took the first temperenee pledge?—Judges xfiL, 13, 14. Who first pledged himself ?—Daniel 1., 8* Was he My wiser thereby ?—Daniel L, 15, 20. Can a drunkard enter the kingdom of heaven?—First Cor., vi„ 9,10. Where was the first temperance society held ?—Jer. xxxv., 6, 8. What blessings did God pronounce upon the first temperance society?— Jer. xxxv., 81,19. Is temperance a vice?—Gi. v., 23. When is it a virtue?—Second Peter, 1., 5, 7.

Cincinnati Enquirer: We have read with care the speech of Governor Hendricks before the Democratic State Convention at Indianapolis, and with pleasure we can say that it is an open, straightforward, manly expression of principles, and is fully in aceord with the glorious democracy of Indiana. Ohio and Indiana are now In harmony on the only question that divides the people of the United States into parties. The platform of principles announced by the Indianapolis convention speaks the real voice of the people of the West and South and will soon be taken up by the plundered and oppressed masses in the East. Now, it is in older that the organs of the British capitalists and their brethren in crime ih the East should begin to denouced and blackguard Tom Hendricks as a swindler and repudiator.
