FEED. DOUGLASS.

Fred. Douglass has been making quite an extensive tour through this State in the interest of the Republican party. His history is a remarkable one. A slave, a fugitive, at one time mobbed and left for dead despised by every one, forsaken by pll, yet in the face of all this he has pushed through the world until to-day he is an honored man. The old man surely shed tears of joy when Senator Bruce was called on to preside at the Chicago Convention.

The Piter ocean of last Saturday, speaking of the triumphs of this man says, that the histrfry of Fred. Douglass should be noted as a part of .to-day's history.

It says that "The mill* of the god* frrlnd xlowtv, But they Rrlnrt exrmllng line." No living man can appreciate this trite but true sentiment more forcibly than Frederick Douglass. At Pendleton, Indiana, ih September, 18421, a breathless fugitive, he was mobbed by the citizens and left for dead upon the ground, for advocating Republican doctrines. Thirtyseven years after, in Pendleton, Indiana, upon almost the identical spot, the same man, a distinguished citizen, holding an honorable office, advocated and defended the same principles from a platform in the presence of five thousand 'hearers. Several men who saw the mob maltreating the colored man in 184S sat upon the platform from which he spoke in 1880, ami the good woman who dressed his wounds and saved his life by careful nursing, was perhaps his most attentive listener.

PTOLIC SERVANTS.

No one will gainsay the proposition that the position in which every public man is placed is a most trying one. Placed in a position where any sums of money can be used to bring about a desired object, public men are the recipients of numerous honors which eventually lead to political or social ruin.

It is a time that public men have the misfortune to objects which the unprincipled and unbrideled press uste targets, which tliey pierce without Impunity with their shafts of malignity

and false­

hood. That public men apftVot to be censured, far from what we consider to be the duty of all good citizens. Rut when men begin fb'fling the slime ioV politica! putridity at the character of ho^iept and upright men, then ftM that the public reaction brands the vjlifler with an Iron of universal disgust and dlshcnestyf The press, as w#1l as indivlduals, has a perfect right^to go Into thc|Sa«! every public man, and if -Ms character is not such%s would merit the confidence of the people, they have a right to know it, but this does not permit the press or any individual tojerash a pian by the right of slanderous and unfounded charges with out anr founrt«tfon^" ***»&*•

In this campaign our Democratic Press hare sought to smirch the character of Geo. QtrftelB Hi him with min»naS'jobs and of men that think of public spoils in and about Washington city, In which, as these Detm ocrats very well know. Gen*. Garfield had not the slightest couaection. Personal abuse has taken the place largely of political argument, and fearful attacks upon character are now induiged in that would. If justly d«Mt with in courts of law, send their authors to the jails. This i* all bad, vcjrjrbad. and brings our Democratic liberty frequently tinder the censorship of Eropean critic#, whofc, laws, rigidly enforced, pnoiaii without fail socb N&iainoos vulgarities when sued upon for damages or criminally prosecuted. But there no evil wHhout an attendant good, we

often find the base indulgence of per* tonal abuse the keynote of political oppo gition, #esides, it has its influence In ^restraining public men from gross conduct In .their private and official relations. And again, it marks unmistakably the mastiff wJiojiL taJe feared, and the whiffle dog that barks innocuously at the trav eler's heels.

One

fact experience has de

inonstra^ed—that perepnal„$bu«^ unless based upon substantial chargos, isineffect ive, and comes home to roost- It does little, if any, damage to the abused, but reeoils, in public opinion, upon the ac cusees, putting him on trial as a malicious vilifier. ___________

Attorney-General Devens' Xnncie (Ind.)

.it. Speech. General Charles Devens, of Massachusetts, Attorney-General of the United States, addressed a vast assemblage of enthusiastic Repbulicans in the CourtHouse yard, at Muueie. Ind., on the 6th. The following is substantially whathesaid:

Mr FKI.U»w-CiTTZKy?: I am to-day laboring with a severe cold, and will deliver to j*ou but a plain talk. 1 have a plain story ui Klve. with one exception this Is theflrsttime I nave ever stood upon a platform to discuss political issues since the campaign of Henry Clay, and this is my first appearance In the field in the present catmiss. Why do I come here to talk to-day? Because we are citizen-* of a common country. Nothing else would give me a right to come heforeyou, the people of Indiana. I come a stranger among you, except one, the gentleman who introduced me, Judge March. Although 1 come before you a stranger. I know you will hear me, for we are fellow-citl-zens, having the same eominon interest. Although your election to take place In October is one which concerns State otilccrs particularly, it materially affects the whole country. We therefore will not discuss State issues will not discuss Judge Porter, wh6m I know to be one of the ablest and most excellent men. Your election I will not discuss, howover Important it may be upon the Presidential result I believe—I know—if Indiana could get a free, full and fair ballot she is overwhelmingly Republican. But there is danger. Our opponents are antagonistic to free and untrarameled ballots. The framers of the Constitution so arranged matters that the people must select the ehief magistrate every four years, and thus they take up and discuss as often the political issues anew, 'these framers expected parties they made

R.

B.

a

Government, a Nation, a Constitution. They contemplated that the people should come together and determine who should be their chief executive. They knew the tenure of power was short, and after each administration it would return to the source from whence it came—to the people. What are the issues before thapeople? Vou were, during the last three years, told that, the great issue would be the so-called fraud, by which Hayes was declared President of the United States. That issue has dropped out in some way. Even their candidate has not the face to declare Hayes a usurper. That cry was to cover up other frauds of which they were guilty. I am not going over the frauds and murders perpetrated in South Carolina. They are enough to make any man sick. The KukJux klan was followed by the Mississippi klan, which was enforced against not only the colored man, but any who presumed to vote the Republican ticket. By this recourse in the State elections in South Carolina and Louisiana, the apparent vote showed a Demo* cratlc majority. When It was shown that some of these States were not carried by the Democrats, then wo were told that fraud was committed. What fraud conld have been greater than the one committed by this party in 1878? The official returns show an unfor the present President ent by the gallant son ol

reseni rrraiueui, gallant son of

doubted majority and the message sent Michigan, that "R. B. F1 and eighty-live electoral votes," was true. Rut a deep feud was thus engendered some? thing must be done to oppose that feeling. It was held by some statesmen to be the duty of the Vice-President,- others held it to be the duty of the House and Senate, .to settle this question, and, if necessary, go behind the re* turns and declare who was rightfully entitled to the Presidency. As an expedient a bill was passed -creating an Electoral Commission. The debate, decisions, and passage of this bill' show that the Commission was to have all t|ie owers which Congress had, and no more, iike other solemn tribunals, it was to judge of its own powers. If this had not been fully, understood, the bill could not bavu been passed. There could have been no misunderstanding. Senator Thurman, of Ohio, understood It Just as did Senator Edmunds, of Vermont. No one could be deceived by it. Yet this IB the fraud alleged. The present President of the United States had a clear majority, notwithstanding efforts made to report behind the returns. After the Commission was created the opposition resorted to a new plan to bribe the commissioners not to go behind the returns. Thus they attempted to decide that the arent vote was not the true vote. All these failed, as did the miserable trick of Oregon. The Constitution of the United Slates suys the votes shall be opened and uountwi in the House of Representatives. It is necessary that sofae ono be vested with the power declare who shall count these votes, whether the House or Vioe-Presldent. Congress met, ard all adinlttod that tbo question was grave. Then came the question, How shall we deter* mine what rights these tribunals have? The States vote for President as States. Now, gentlemen, that sounds tike State-rights doo*. trine. Well, in so far as that the States have aright to act, where is the man who would believe that the Senate or House could go behind the Supreme Court or Returning Board of the State and still consider himself a consistent State-rights man? The Commission decided in the same way as did the State authorities. The present President was declared elected by every form of law. How it can hurt his title when every form of law was complied with is dlffloult to understand. It beoams at last an absurdity to maintain the discussion longer. The mass of Tilden's own party bad to dismiss the matter as fairly won by and due to Hayes. 1 would not stand here and occupy your time on dead issues if I did not desire you to understand that no man ever stood with his title more clear than does Hayes.

Hayes has one hundred

I will now disenss something lees historical. In 1876 the election was attended with great difficulties. Then business was prostrated, men were out of work, and this condition of affairs was charged to the Republican party. How is it now? Gentlemen, you know how it is. It is not necessary for me to go into der tails, into statistics or our enormous exports, etc., for you know no people ever enjoyed greater prosperity. I will not claim this all for the Kcpublicanparty, but the party is one of the turencies. It has pressed forward a safe financial system to the funding of the National debt. Neither party has a right to claim the resources of the country as a result of its management of affairs. It required no Wise head to sec the cause of the disaster of 1873. Our speculations, trading, wild schemes, and irredeemable currency had done its work, and then we had been called upon to pay an enormous debt for putting down a rebellion. We could not extricate ourself from this condition. These disasters occur, as every elderly man knows, every seven, eight, ntnc or ten years. We arc then called upon to cotisMfer whether or not a wise economy ia not necessary. We must endeavor to get on a better and safer plan. It was charged in 18»« that the Republican party had contracted the currency, when It had been actually increased fSS,000.000. it was said we couid xtricate ourselves by issuing more currency. Thirty millions more was Issued, hut it did not have the desired relief. It was found that the only way was to return to specie, the solid basis.

There was our safety. We havedooe it, and find ourselves on a fine foundation, it was not a primrose idea. It was the result of much wise financiering hy John Sherman that it was so successfully canted out. The greenback was a promise to nay. It stated that the United State* would pay

SI.

coin to this country nas itcen steady ever since. When the Republican mrty has taken this great responsibhit and said public confttlencesbaH be restore.], and this prediction has proven true, are you not willing to trust it further in the guidance of National affairs? Have you not the confldcnce still to think the Republican party has the ability to conduct the affairs of our country? The five and six per cent, bonds were funded with four per cents, and the four-per-cents are now ten and eleven above par. When the Republican party came into power our anuuai inteiest wt.s 000,000. It Is now reduced to if Congress had consented to let us withdraw our six-per-cent." IKindS and substitute lour percent. I bayc no hesitation in saying the interest could have been reduced or 4-10,0.41,OIXJ annually. Thiscrcdit of tnp country is felt by the people in the diminished taxation and private matters sreneratly. When the Government pays a high rate of interest, so will individuals when the public pays a low rate money can be secured by the private borrowers at a low rate. I don't know bow it Is in this country, but throughout the West in general men are reducing their debts and interest, and many a poor man whose land had been incumbered by mortgage by this reduced rate has been enabled to lift the mortgage. This is the effect of specie payment upon our debt. 1 ask my Greenback-flat friends to reconsider the position they have taken, and consider if these propositions are not true, and that the true policy is to always maintain a currency that represents intrinsic worth. There can be no honest dollur that is not made by honest labor. None such can exist unless they have within themselves the equal value of honest labor. The printing press cannot do this. Labor alone is the base of capital. The progress of inflation is in the direction that prices rise while the purchasing power of money falls. The effect of inflation during the war was to increase the price of commodoties to twice their original value, while wages increased in a ratio only two-thirds as great. Thus is it se jn that wages do not rise in the same ratio that prices do, and hence the falsity of the grecnbactc theory. When we think ol' the great debt of the nited States which we are now struKgiing to meet at the rate of $ 100,000,000 per year, I ask you to stop and coflP* slder who made that debt? I agree In one sense the Republican party made it. Wu would not see the country suffer nor the Union broken up.

The Democrats are responsible for it. They are the cause. I ought not, either, to charge it alone upon that party in the South. Had there been no disposition in the North to countenance the rebellion it would have collapsed two years before it did. Indeed, but for the support it received in the North, it oould not have lived a year. The Northern Democrats were ready to rejoice in every defeat. They sought to paralyze the energies of patriotic States. They said there could ne no coercion, and thus they encouraged secession. In 1864 the Democratic party met in convention, and masquerading then, as now, under George B. McClellan, declared the war a failure and demanded instant peace. The war a failure 1 when the strong hand had just been placed on Richmond! What that Democratic resolution cost in money we can hardlvgues s, but it continued the war a year. Many a brave soldier has never returned to his home. Many a loving mother looked anxiously out from her lonely cabin for that son who never came again. What number of brave and useful lives it cost we do not know, but we do know it gave courage to every man In arms against us. It would be unjust, then, to charge altogether on the South the debt of the country. The debts of the South have been repudiated by the million. Will they bo more careful of ours? I ask you again, are you willing to confide this country to that party which tried to destroy it? And you cannot afford to do it. Is there anything in your agricultural or industrial interests to prompt you to place the Government in the hands of these Democrats? The revenues of the country, of the Nation, must be raised by Indirect taxation. No capitation shall be levied on States and districts except in proportion to representation in Congress. In the revenues of a great Government like this, with t'oi t.veight millions of people, it is obvious that large sums of money must always be raised, and this must be done, too, only oy a protective tariff nothing more, nothing less. No one contends for prohibitory tnriff. We want only to manufacture on the same terms as other countiies. What has been the success of this system? It has developed our manufacturing interests. Duties are shown to be lurgely paid by forelgn manufacturers. Can there be any otjection to this? As duties must be laid and taxes paid, what reason can be given why the burden should not be made just as light us

possible on our people,

Industries?

Industrial interests are the prime objects to be considered. Why, then, change the Administration? Have you a feeling that the opposition party will do better? They charge that we are a sectional party, but we deny it. ton for the goojl of the igbt to maintain the Union for the same purpose. To-day the results of the rebellion are to the benefit of the South, if they would only look at it right. The* effect of the revolution was to make Great Britain a freer land. The victory or the Union was a victory for the whole people, lor the South as well as for the North, since we are one. The crops now in the South are demonstrating the fact that free labor is attended with better results than slave laUor. Instead of trying to keep up a cruel war in the South, il its leaders had tried to keep np pence, and encourage mutual union, the result would be a blessing. But they will not do this, liy fraud and intimidation, they have kept up this strife, and by it they have made theSouth solid They say to the North: Vou are the, lighting party. Vou keep up sectionalism. Is that a wsctional party which strlKes down and crushes out corruption? Take the thing as it stands to-day. Head the report or the election in Alabama. Every party must be ruled, of course, by the majority of that party. The South is ruled by tissue ballots and bullets. It ia aolld from this. It is a placs where you or 1 could not discuss political issues. What wa* the termination of the political meetings held in Alabama wnlle Hayes was a candidate? They were all dispersed by roughs and bummere. General Weaver, Greenback candidate for President, went down there and staid a few days, and was dismissed without insult, 1 believe, though unable to be heard. Randall was driven away amidst insult and threats. 1 prefer to take the reports of these men, sincc they are not of my party. Those who enter the Southern soil must either bow donw or be crashed down. And gentlemen of thefouth have the face to stand up and say the elections are fair. I do not desire to take their evidence in the matter. As I have asked my Greenback friends to consider their position I want them to consider their rights as freemen to v.4c. and that as they vote their ballots may be fairly oCftinted. I asa them to reconsider their position, and determined whether the party that sntres the rights of all is not the Republican party? Vou cannot trftk? with, the rights of any other man and have your own f-afe. Wrongs done to others will always return t» thetirst aggressor. Is there any encouragement for toe freemen of the North to trust their votes In the hands of this party? Will it be attended by benefits to your Interest as common citizens, as freemen of a Nation? Fair elections is the demand of one of be resolutions r.t their platform. Howthey can look each other in the fn« without laughing at the absurdity of this resolution 1 cannm understand. Ine Democrats who cry for a free and fair ballot set themteives squarely in favor of a bill which would have deprived the United tttatea of its supervision of the election of its own lawmakers, the ConarnMfttnetu especially l'rom the South. There BI no one who wishes to deprive the South of anr rights.

We honor Hancock but we must leave the path he would have us walk. AVhilc we regret to part from such iuor. wc must, with resolution, keep ever on. The candidate whom wo have nominated was a volunteer, butsurel) no man will put the regular soldier above the volunteer. 1 don't institute comparison between biavemen. If he did his duty faithfully, honorably, well, he is my brother. The Republican party stand today as on trial before the people.

We do not fear that trial. Wo are ready to stand before that bar, and hold up our hand and await the decision of a just people. Wo havo been the triumphant parly since 18*10. Wo havo honored the Nation, in the election of such Chief Magistrates as Lincoln, Grant. Hayes. Undaunted in danger, undismaved in disaster,.forgiving, is James A. Garlield. Today we otter him to the people of the United States as the fourth candidate of the Republican nnrty, and if there is any man In this community who feels that ho is not a noble example of a man I do not envy (flui.

Upon the bloody battleground of Chiekamauga he stood bravely by the gnu. For sixteen years Garlield has been ir. Congress. Search him through and through, examine those features, and say does he not contain those elements that make up the model in .n? The people kn iw his desire on every Mibjcet. His opinions are not secret ones. Whatever be hi.« opinions, remember his direct ions alA ays prompt them. There is not a working man but. recognizes him as friend, a brother, lie is known to atl. No better man could have been •elected. We must sueee d. What dangers li,• before us if the Detune alie p.itty succeeds we readily foresee. Let us try no doubtful e.vpeiiineiits. l.ut, us not surrender. Let the vote*of Indiana be recorded for the Republican nominee, and hit election be assured.
