says:

The lenders of the Democratic party— thoftf who secured the nomination of Mr. Landers, were not of the number who opposed Dr. De La Mntyr on the contrary his indorsement was favored by even Mr. English and all who were capable of comprehending th, condition of the State. Mr. Landers and the class of gentlemen with whom he is in close communion, re gard it as a great misfortune. The defeat was secured by the votes of Democrats who Know no "difference between a Jacksou Democrat and a Greeley Democrat: between an inflation "Democrat and a hard monev Democrat. They knew Dr. Do la Matyr as not only not a Democrat in name, but a Christian. The bitterest terms iti which he was ever mentioned in the Hendricks Club was "The Christian Statesman:*1 The truth of the matter is, he has violated no obligation, he has brokeu no promise, and those best acquainted with th# fact know that the party stands in greater need of his influence in this campaign than ever before. There was a faint hope expressed, when it was ascertained that Byflcld would received the nomination, that he could be 'Induced to withdraw. But that hope is vain. He belongs to the seldom die and never resign class of politicians.

Although Mr. Landers regards it as a great misfortune, he will find it a greater misfortune to bear up under the terrible defeat which awaits him. He, as a representative of soft-money principles, and English a« the hardest of hard-money wen, gives to. Indiana Democracy a curious combination.

The old Bourbon element would rather vote for Porter than sacrifice their cher i$he,d lifelong principles ou the honest hani money question. "Plan" Buchanan, a few days ago, in speaking of tins Democratic traitorship towards De La Matyr. said: "Are vou aw.irv that four years airo the

speaking about the

result of changing the power of the government from the North to the South, says:

The probable result of giving the South the supremacy in the government issomething that is being seriously considered by the North, an£ as the campaign progresses, must be thought of and discussed more and more.

Three or four points may be presented, about which there is no dispute or ques tion. The people of the South believe that the amendments to the Constitution were adopted wrongfully, and by doubtful legal methods. As those amendments took from them millions of dollars in socalled property, and humiliated them by exalting the black man, it is natural that they should wish the hateful enactments annulled. This could probably be ac complished by a reorganization of the Supreme Court, and, though its final success is doubtful, the disturbance which would be caused by the attempt would be very unfortunate for the country.

Although it would seem that thirty years would suffice to eradicate every vestige of the Rebellion, yet, the South cherishes a feeling against the North that she has been the victim of a cruel wrong.

No sooner would the power be vested in the South than she would assert a supremacy, the result of which would be the most disastrous the world has ever seen.

The Republican party cannot afford to be lukewarm in this matter. Give supremacy of government to the South, and the chances are ten to one that she would want payment for her slaves and pensions for her soldiers, reimbursement for destroyed property and a claim against the United States for her war debt.

We should ask ourselves what party it was that seceded from the Union, and for years waged a civil, relentless war, and created a debt of billions of dollars for its suppression.

What party was it that produced all the traitors of the United States? What party fought against the Union in the great civil war and gave from the North "aid and comfort" to the rebels in the South? What party denounced Abraham Lincoln,now of the silent'dead, calling him a tyrant and usurper, worthy of death? What party afterwards caused his death?

What party opposed the war, yet in Vigo county had armed men drilling in its usages for the purpose of killing their neighbors?

What party, in 1862, speaking of Lincoln, said, that "resistance to tyrants was obedience to God"?

What party produced Booth, Harold, Atzerot, Payne and the murderers of Chrisholm? What party has produced all advocates of nullification, conspiracy, civil war, and states rights since the days of John C. Calhoun.

What party originated in Indiana, and especially in Vigo County, the Sons of Liberty, and Knights of the Golden Circle?

What party advocated a compromise of the war of the Rebellion with Rebels then in arms?

What party in Ohio, when Vallandingham was in the zenith of his rebel glory, threatened that 200,000 Democrats, under Pugh would rise in rebellion, rescue him, and drive the tyrant Abe Lincoln from the throne?

What party from tlit days of John C. Calhoun to the 28th day of July, 1880 contend that the United States is a league of soperated Sovereignities, and that Na tion should be spelled with a little "n"?

We candidly ask every reader if such a party should have the supermacy of this government.

Kind Words.

Here are four good reasons why we should use kind words when we speak to others: 1. Because they always cheer hiin to whom they are addressed. They soothe him if he is wretched they comfort him if he is sad. 2. Thero are words enough of the opposite kind flying in all directions—sour words, cross words, fretful words, irritating words. Now let kind words have a chance to get abroad, since so many and so different are on the wing. 8. Kind words bless him that uses them. A sweet sound on the tongue tends to make the heart mellow. Kind words react upon the kind feelings which prompted them, and make them more kind. They add fresh fuel to the fire of benevolent emotion in the soul. 4. Kind words Ixget kind feelings. People love to: the face and hear the voice of such a man.

Kind words are, therefore, of great value. As good old George Herbert says, Good words are worth much and cost little."

Vfords Containing Five Regular Towels. There area number of words in the English language each of which contains all the five regular vowels, but it wonld puwtle almost any one to think of more than one or two at short, notice. The

may be noted as a peculiar word, for it contains the loiter "i*' five times. Mississippi and Tennessee are each spelled with only four letters of the alphabet, although one contains eleven and the other nine. Sch nappe* a word of one syllable and eight letters, contains but one vowel. There are no words in the English language of more than eight Syllables and of thosfe containing that number may be mentioned incomprehensibility.

Speech at Ohitf.

Paines-

Early In July the Soldiers' Monument at Painesriile, Ohio, was dedicated with imposing ceremonies. There was a large military and civic procession, and ches were made by General Gar-

General J. D. Cox and otherf. The following was General Garfield's speech:

FKLUJW-COTZKKS: I cannot well respond ou such an occasion, in the sight of such a monument to such a cause, sustained by such men. While I listened to what my friend said, two questions have been sweeping through my heart one, what does the monument mean, the other, what will the monument teach? Let me ask you for a moment to help me answer, what does the monument mean? Oh, it means a world of memories and a world of deeds, a world of tears and a world of glories, l'ou know, thousands know what it is to offer up yoir life to the country, and that is no small thins: as every soldier knows. Let me put this question to you for the moment. Suppose your country in the. awfully-embodied form of majestic law, should stand above you and say, "1 want your- life come up here on the platform and ofTer it." How many would walk up before that majestic presence and say: Here I am, take this life, use it for your preat needs." And yet almost one thousand million men made that answer, and the monument stands yonder to commemorate their answer. That one of its meanings. But my friends let me try you a little further. To give up life is much, for it is to give up wire, home and uaibitiou. But let me test you this way further. Suppose the awfully majestic form should call out to you: "1 ask you to give up health, to drag yourself not dead but half alive through a memorable existence for long years until you periSh and die in your crippled, hopeless condition. 1 ask you to volunteer to do that, and it calls for a higher reach of patriotism and self-saeritice.'* But hundreds of thousand? of you soldiers did that. That is what the monument means also. But let me ask you to go one step further. Suppose your country should say: "Come here on this platform. and in my name and for my sake consent to bo idiots. Consent that your very brain and intellect shall be broken down into hopeless idiocy for my sake." How many could be found to make thut venture? And yet thousands, with tueir eyes wide open to the horrible consequences, obeyed that call. And let me tell ljow MW.OOo of our soldiers were prisoners of war, and for many of t.iemi. when udeithwns sUilkng- near, t&raine cl-mbing up iiito their heaus and ii"ey tnreatening ail tiiat was lefi .f their inul.ccts, the gates of ncir prison stood open ev e.y day if they would desert their liag and enaat under the ilagof the enemy and out ot l.-0,000 uot two per ec.it. ever received libe u'.ion from deathj st. r\ ai ion and idiocy. Ail :at mijrht come of iti. m. but they took a.l thwe horrors, nil these sale iu„'S preference to b«e' upon ihe il of their country and tne glory of its truth. ti. eut xl, was ever Ft:h a measure of patriotism reached by any man on this earth before. That is what your monument means.

By a subtle chemistry that no man knows all the blood Bhed by our brethren, all the lives devoted, all the grief felt, at last has crystalized itself into granite and rendered immortal the great truth for which they died, and it stands there to-day. This is what your monument means.

How what docs it teach? Why, I remember the story of one of the old conquerors of Greece, who, when he had traveled in his boyhood over the battlefields whfere Miltiades won victories and set up trophies, returning said: "These trophies of Miltiades will never let me sleep." Why something had taught him from the chiseled shore a. lo9eon he could never forget. And, fellow-citizens, that silent sentinel that crowns the granite column will look down upon the boys that will walk theso streets for generations to come, and will not lot them Bleep when their country calls them. More than the dead bugler on the Holds, from his dead lips will go out a call that the children of Lake County will hoar after tho grave has oovered all. That is the teaching of your monument that is its lesson, and it is a lesson of ondurance for what we believe, and it is a lesson of sacrifices for what we think a lesson of heroism for what we mean to sustain, and that lesson cannot be lost to a pooplo liko this. It is not a lesson of revenge, not a lesson of wrath. It is tho grand, sweet, broad lesson of the immortality of truth that we hope will soon cover as with a grand shekinah of light and glory in all parts of this ropublic fiom the lakes to tho gulf.

I oneo entered a house in old Massachusetts, where ovor its doors were two crossed swords. One was the sword carried by the grandfather of its owner on tho field of Bunker Hill. The other sword was ea-rl -d by the English grandsire of the wife on the same tlekl and on the the other side of tho contliot. Under those crossed swords in the rostored harmony, domestic peace, the children lived happy, contented, froe and united tinder the light of our republican liberties. I trust the time is not far distant when undor croesed swords and locked shields of Americans, North and South, our people shall sleep in peace and riso in libcrtv, love and harmony under the union of our nag of stars and stripes.

General Sheridan is not a politician, nor has ho ever been suspected of aiming at civil office. His honesty is unquestioned as his frankness, nor was he by affiliation or nature inimical to the South. He was a soldier who was justly indignant at the outrages and terrorism committed upon the negroes and tho white Union men of the South, whose devotion to the cause of freedom caused them more sacrifices and sufferings than their brethren at the North, and who, at the close of the war, found themselves unprotected by the Government and turned over to the mercy of their bitterest enemies. What that mercy was is told in the volumes of testimony taken before tho KuKlux Investigating Committee, which reveals a record of horrors and cruelties unparalleled in *ny civilized country of modern times. Acting upon the information furnished by General Sheridan, General Grant urged upon President Johnson to declare martial law in Texas and Louisiana in orvler to enforce the laws and give comparative security to all classes of citizens. His recommendation was rejected. General Sheridan was removed and General Hancock appointed to the command.

General Hancock, by political affiliations, belonged to the Democrats, and shared that sentiment which in the regular army, before the war, made the Souther! aristocratic caste socially predominant. He deferred to the ex-rebel sentiment at once, attd his sympathies were entirely with the haughty, fashionable and aristocratic class,' as against tho Union men, who were lower the social scale, and the negroes. On assuming command, he proclaimed the supremacy of the civil ovor the military authorities, and the ex-rebels took him at his word. The outrages against Unionists and negroes increased in number and virulence. Not only did General Hancock make no attempt to stop them, but he even stooped to use the military power, contrary to his proeiama tion, in removing Union officers

The law disfranchising rebel soldiers was revoked by an order issued fust before an election, in which General Hancock declared his dissent from the construction of the Reconstruction act. and authorized' the registrars to put their own interpretation upon it. Lawlessness and violence accompanied his role in Lomsutr-, until finally he was relieved at his request, for the more comfortable and less troublesome task of dealsng with hostile Indiaas in -partrB ~r:t of Dakota.
