An ingenious swindle is being practiced in some parts of the country by which one dollar hills are tuade to return a large interest to the manipulators. A one dollar and afire dollar greenback, or of some national bank currency, are carelessly torn in two in the middle, and the half of the one and half of the five are pasted together. Unless closely scrutinised they will be apt to be taken for fives. Thus with sue dollars the swindler will make a profit of four out of the two fives which ne manufactures.

The meetings will continue for the next ten days in the same church. They are free to all, and all are cdrdially invited to attend.

Look to Tonr Ice

The Scientific American, in speaking on this subject, says: Whence comes our ice supply? Often from shaUow reservoirs in the midst or neighborhood of large towns purposely made to receive surface drainage from ajl around, under the erroneous idea that no harm willensue, as freezing is supposed to purify and render harmless what otherwise might be objectionable. Great quantities of ice are taken from canals, from creeks, from stagnant ponds, and from streams that are either the natural or artificial recipients of surface drainage, of the outpourings of sewers, and of uncleanliness from various sources. The danger from ice taken from improper places is not only from that winch is arunk, but from itd use in refrigerators and preservators, where milk, bntter, fruits, vegetables and meats are subject to its saturating influence as it vaporizes. Several instances have fallen unaer the doctors' observation where the disease, by the most careful investigation, coula not be traced to any other source. If we accept as a fact the statement positively made in the London Lancet, that it never originates de novo, bnt proceeds from a special and specific poison, which is capable of diffusion to a great extent, and which preserves its noxous qualities for a long period, even if buried for many months, we cannot reject the hypothesis of ice infection.

On this theory swamps and shallow ponds, and streams in which drainage is permitted to flow, and drawn off in summer, aVe not only dangerous to the immediate neighborhood, but may send disease and sickness wherever the ice is transported. This is Anew peril which can easily be guarded against. See to it that the ice you use is nothing but pure frozen living water.

The Art of Talking.

If we notice closely we shall find the people who are the most popular in social life are those who understand not only how to talk themselves, but how to make others talk. This is a very valuable gift. To be able so to direct conversation as to draw out the opinions and quicken the thoughts ot those with whom you talk—this is an accomplishment indeed. It makes each a contributor to.the enjoyment of ail, and leaves with each a pleasant sense of having said something which others were glad to hear. There is a good deal of this sort of conversation missionary work waiting to be done, and the time which we spend chattering about the weather might be very profitably devoted to it. It should be borne in mind that there is scarce^ any one of average intelligence who cannot, if he is'drawn out, talk interestingly and instructively about at least one thing, the thing with which he is practically most familiar- or which is connected with his regular labor. Whoever talks thus much with specialists upon their chosen department of labor or thought will get together a fand of valuable information not to be learned from books.

LETTER OF ACCEPTANCE.

OF GENERAL CHESTER JL. ARTHUR.

NEW YORK, July 15, 1880.

DEAR SIR—I accept the position assigned me by the great party whose action you announced. This acceptance implies the approval of the principles declared by the Convention, but recent usage permits me to add some expressions of my own views.

The right and duty to secure honesty and order in popular elections is a matter so vital that it must stand in the front. The authority of the National Government to preserve from fraud and foroe elections at which its own officers are chosen is a chief point on which the two parties are plainly and intensely opposed. Acts of Congress for ten years have, in New Ycyk and elsewhere, done much to curb violence and wrong to which the ballot and count have been again and again subjected, sometimes despoiling great cities, sometimes stifling the voice of a whole State, often seating, not only in Congress, but on the bench and in Legislatures, numbers of men never chosen by the people. The Democratic party, since gaining possession of the two houses of Congress has made these just laws the object of bitter, ceaseless assault, and despite all resistance, has hedged them with restric ns and cunn'n^ly contrived to baffle and paralyze them. This aggressive majority boldly attempted to extort from the Executive the approval of various enactments destructive of these election laws, by revolutionary threats that a constitutional exercise of the veto power would be punished by withholding the appropriations necessary to carry on the Government. And these threats were actually carried out by refusing the needed appropriations, and b}* forcing an extra session of Congress, lasting for months., and resulting in concessions to this usurping demand which are likely in

The history of recent years abounds in evidence that in many ways and many places, especially where their number has been great enough to endanger Democratic control, the ver}- men whose elevation to citizenshipHthis increase of repre sentation was effected have been debarred and robbed of their voicc aud their vote. It is true that tiie State statute and the Constitution in so many words denies or abridges the exercise of their political rights, but the modes employed to bar their way are no less effectual. It is a suggestive twd startling thought that the increased power derived from the enfranchisement sf a race, now denied its share in governing the country, wielded by those who lately sought the overthrow of the Government, is now the sole reliance to defeat the party which represented the sovereignty and nationality of the Ameriican people in the greatest crisis of our history. The Republicans cherish none of the resentments which may have animated them during the actual conflict of arms. They long for a full and real reconciliation between the sections which were needlessly and lamentably at strife. They sincerely offer the hand of good will, but they ask in return a pledge of good faith. They deeply feel that that party whose career is so illustrious in great and patriotic achievements will not fulfill its destiny until peace and prosperity are established in all the land nor until liberty of thought, conscience, and action, and equality of opportunity, shall be not merely cold formalities of statute, but living birthbrights, which the humble may confidently claim, and the powerful may not deny.

The resolution referring to public service seems to be deserviug of approval. Surely no man should be incumbent of an office the duties of which he is for any cause unfit to perform, who is lacking in ability, fidelity, or integrity which a proper administration of such an office deihands. This sentiment would doubtless meet with geueral acquiescence, but opinion has been widely divided upon the wisdom and practicability of various reformatory schemes whicn have been suggested, and of certain proposed regulations governing appointments to public office. The efficiency of such regulations has been distrusted, mainly because they have seemed toAxalt mere educational and abstract testy above general business capacity, and even special fitness for particular work in hand. It seems tome that rules which should be applied to the management of the public service may properly conform, in the main, to such as regulate the conduct of successful private business. Original appointments should be based upon ascertained fitness. The tenure of office should be stable. Positions of responsibility should so far as practicable be filled by promotion of worthy and efficient officers. The investigation of all complaints and punishment of all official misconduct should be prompt and thorough. These views which I have long held, repeatedly declared, and uniformly applied when called upon to act. I find embodied in this resolution, which, of course, I approve. I will add that by the acceptance of om*. whether high or low, one does not, in my judgment, es cape any of bis responsibilities as a citizen, or lose or impair any of his rights as

a citizen* and that he should enjov absolute liberty to think and speak and act in political matters according to his own will

many States to subject the niajority/promises, but upon its history. Its subseto the lawless will of a" minsrity. Ominous signs of public disapproval alone subdued this arrogant power into a sullen surrender for the time being of part of its demands. The Republican party has strongly approved stern refusal of its representatives to suffer overthrow of statutes believed to be salutary and just. It has always insisted, and now insists, that the Government of the United State! of America is empowered and in duty bound to effectually protect the elections denoted by the Constitution as National. More than this, the Republican party holds, as the cardinal point iu its creed, that the Government should, by every means known to the Constitution, protect all American citizens everywhere in the full enjoyment of their civil and political rights. As a great part of its work of reconstruction, the Republican party gave the ballot to the emancipated slave as his right and defense. A large increase in the number of members of Congress and of the Electoral College from the former slave-hollkng States was the immediate result.

The value of popnlar education can hardly be overstated. Although its interests must of necessity be chicffy confided to voluntary effort and the individual acton of the several States, they should be encouraged, so far as the Constitution

Sfationalby

ennits, generous cooperation of the Government. The interests of the whole country demaud that the advantages of our common school system should be brought within reach of every citizen, and that no revenue of the Nation or of the States should be devoted to the support pf sectarian schools.

Such changes should be made in the present tariff and system of taxation as will relieve any overburdened industry or class, and enable our manufacturers and artisians to compete successfully with those of other lanas.

The Government should aid works of internal improvement National iu their character, and should promote development of our water courses and harbors wherever the general interest of commerce require.

Four years ago, as now, the Nation stood at the threshold of a Presidential election, and the Republican party in soliciting a continuance of its ascendency founded its hopes of success, not upon its

quent course has been such as to strengthen the claims which it then made to tho confidence and support of the country. On the other hand, considerations more urgent than have ever before existed forbid the accession of its opponents to power. Their success, if success attend them, must, chiefly come from the united support of that section which sought forcible disruption of the Union, and which, according to all teachings of our past history, will demand ascendency in the councils of the party to whose triumph it will have made ny far the largest contribution.

There is Jthe gravest reason for appro hension that exorbitant claims upon the public treasury, by no means limited to hundreds of millions already covered by bills introduced in Congress the past four years, would be succeSiully urged if the Democratic party should succeed in supplementing its present control of the National Legislature by electing the Executive also.

There is danger in intrusting the control of the whole law-making power of the Government to a party winch has in almost every Southern State repudiated ob ligations quite as sacred as those to which the taith of the Nation now stands pledged.

I do not doubt that success awaits tho Republican party, and that its triumph will assure a just, economical aud natri" otic administration. I am, respectfully,

The resumption of specie payments, one of the fruits of Republican policy,has brought the return of abundant prosperity* and the settlement of many distracting questions. The restoration of sound money, the largest reduction of our public debt and of a burden 'of interest, the high advancement of public credit, all attest the ability and courage of the Republican party to deal with such financial problems as may hereafter demand a solution. Our paper currency is now as good as gold, and silver is performing its legitimate function .for purposes of purpo change. The principles whicn should govern the relations of these elements of currency are simple and clear. There must be no deteriorated coin, no depreciated paper. And every dollar, whether of metal or paper, shoula stand the test of the worlds fixed standard.

Your obedient servant, C. A. Ajirnun.

He denied the report that he had comr plained of Conkllng and Logan having deceived him. He had no letter from, cither of them, either before or after the convention, since his return to America.'' He said of all men, Conkling and Logan were the last for him to find fault with,, and he felt more proud of the 812 that* stood bp him than if he had received the nomination by unfair means.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., July 16.—Consider- '•$ able interest was occasioned here to-day^-by the appearance of Eugene V. Debs,, City Clerk of Terre Haute, in company* -ip* with attorn^Vs of the Brotherhood of--'|^: Locomotive Firemen, who demanded tlplfr officc of Grand Secretary and Treasuferviy' fromW. N. Sayre, his authority being a letter from F. W. Arnold, of Columbus,^ Ohio, Grand Master, ordering the change* and the removal of the office to Terre? Haute. Sayre had no intimation of hi%H.i peremptory removal, and was badly cut** up, but after an interview he gave up the' office and books and papers without*^ trouble. The attorneys for the brother- 'J hood state that the office is turned over in good shape, and that every dollar is accounted for. When the matter is settled"/ Mr. Sayre promises to make a statement' of the causes leading to his removal, and says it will create a sensation. He says he has been beaten by a d—d scoundrel, but declines to go further into particulars. This does not refer to Mr. Debs, however.' Sayre will go to New York and take a position offered him by Governor McClel lan, of New Jersey, by whom he was formerly employed on the Ohio "and Mississippi Road as civil engineer. He has., been Secretary of the brotherhood since its organization in 1874. Debs goes to Columbus to consult Arnold, and then tor«n^ Cleveland to see Grand Chief Engineer? Arthur. The Fireman*$ Monthly, reorganized, will be removed from Dayton' to Terre Haute. The convention which' meets in Chicago in October next will.' elect a permanent Secretary and Treasurer.
