Thn Fmfrlic Debt Qneatlwm. The Journal, in a long and senseless iiacussion upon the green beck question. If It can be regarded a discussion af an important a subject, makes the following comments: “We begged the Skntinxl, which we supposed knfwwhat Democratic piluciptw and measures were, at least In this State, to inform ua how iu party proposed to redeem the public debt with greenbacks any (hater than it has been dene heretetore, unless by anas* sad enlarged Issue of them; but it has not ventured to answer. We have also inquired of our neighbor whether the Democratic party la prepared to advocate increased taxation Cor the purpose of railing more greenback! to be employed in paying the interest-bearing debt. To this question it gives no response.” These inquiries of the radleal organ have been answered a hundred times. If a radical CoDgrsm had retrenched and ecenouUzed the public expenditures there would have been a large surplus, which could have been applied In the redemption of the public debt. The five hundred milHooa of 5 20’s already due at the eptlon of the Oevenunent could have been redeemed, without an enlarged Issue of greenbacks, if the public finances had been managed with sagacity and the public expenditures had been reduced to a standard which they could have been, and would have been if economy had characterized the administration of public affairs. We have often demonstrated how the Intereet bearing debt could have been paid within a few years without Increased taxation, or adding a dollar ta the currency, hence the Deasacracy are net prepared ta advocate a policy that is not necessary, M would not be necessary under a Democratic administration to speedily diminish the public debt, and With Ua redemption a diminution of the public burdens. It can bo oosfly shown that with tho taxation and volume of paper currency which the party in power has aiweed and authorized, the public debt, with strict economy and JutUfiaMe retrenchment in tho management of public affairs, could bo wiped out within a few yean, and leave the people comparatively free from public burdens. The radical party had the opportunity to do tbte, but failed to take advantage of It. Extravagance and economy have been the rule since the radicals obtained control of the Government, and tho hungry crew will never let ge their bold upon the Treasury ea long an their party la continued in power. Radicalism has' been tried la the balnneee and leu ad wanting. There le no hope far a return to a cheap and pure Government without a radical change In its adminIstradca, and this thepeople can accomplish at theballot boxes next November, If

they will It.

Well Put. The Columbus Journal, the State organ af the radicals of Ohio, commenting on an article In the Cmeionstl Oaeette favoring the appointment of Hen. William S. G roes beck as Secretary of the Treasury, puts in the follow-

ing reply:

"The Cincinnati Gazette favors the seieotion of Wm. 8. Groesbeck for Secretary of the Treasury, because he is an honest man. The Presiding Eider of the Methodist church In this district is an honest man, and yet we are net quite <lear that be la just the maa tosek A for Secretary of the Treasury. Our p rind pal book-keeper we believe to be an honest maa, and yet, because he manages our own accounts satisfactorily, we do not Insist that he ahould be cboaen to take charge of the accounts of the United States Government. Henry Ward Beecher is an honest and able maa, but his pre-eminent 11 Intis for the position of Secretary of the Treasury has not hitherto occurred

to any one.

“ We are not awaro that because a man la a good lawyer, a flan theologian, or a Mae Greek scholar, that he te wsweetelly a great financier. Evidence of ability la one direction not evidence af ability ta aH directions. A first class stone mason would not probably make a first-dais surgeon-general, and an afate lawyer might be found wanting la the position ot Secretary of the .Navy, or Secretary of the Treasury.” Now, let the Journal apply its res* which is clear and well put, to the case et General Grant. That paper and the whole radical press eon tend tbst he te n greet General, but dees the evidewce of hta ability in that direction fnmlah evidence ef bte ability as n statesman? If we were engaged In war, hie experience end success in lamer onafllrts might justify the Government to employ him at the bead of our armies, but as no sane man would go to a etone mason to have a pair of boots or shoes made, or to n lawyer to lay the brick on hts house, so it would bo equally as absurd to presume that beoanae a maa la a good General he would make a competent and safe statesman. The masoning Is eoaad and conclusive, and the American people would be guilty of a great folly if in this mow state ef Kstienal affairs, they psas by tried and experteneed statesman to imtwl the head of the Government a maa who admits bis utter in com potency and Ignorance of governmental affairs.

Saltpetre won't save the radleal* to Colfax’s district.

A Gloomy Plcturo. The New Yoi k Tribune, ot tke 13th instant, paints the following gloomy picture: “2A« reduction of our debt hat ceated The imI report adds ten milliont to iu total; o-d, while this is probably factitious, It 1» clear that there has been no duninution since the 1st of January. The reserve of coin in the Treasury has already begun to decline. It has exceeded one hundred millions net; it is now but seventy mUMoes In excess of the ouutaoding gold certificates. Tale to to be drawn down directly by the payment of eight millions of Mexican war debt, thirty millions of interest, and, probably, eeven millions of purchase money lor Alaska, it is not piobable tbat there will be fifty millions of coin in the Treatury on tseicta of July next above the amount deposited there oy private owners and balanced by gold ceitificatea of deposit. And it to morally certain that the debt will be heavier four months hence than It to to-day.” We presume that the statements of the Tribune on this matter are about correct. Yet what step have the radical party taken towards retrenchment and economy? That other able Republican paper, the New York Timet, well remarks: “Everybody knows that upon the eve of an Impoitant election rival parties vie with eacn other very vigorously in promiting reforms. In this sense the presidential campaign may be said to have opened already. * * The Republicans are in power, and can at once inaugurate these great ref era*. They may not he able thoroughly to accomplish ail of them, but they can do enough to show that they are earnest and sincere to promising them. They have the decided advantage of their opponents In this respect; They need net rely on mere premises—they can give practical proof of their purpose to carry them into effect. Let them not neglect to take advantage ot their

opportunity.”

Hqw have they taken advantage of the opportunity to “Inaugurate great reforms” and “give practical proof of their purpose to carry them into effect?” We will let the same Re-

publican paper tell:

“The fact that Congress, under present circumstances, to wllllrg even to entertain a proposition to lend fifteen millions of dollars to aid to opening a tunnel for gold mining to Nevada—the whole affair being private property—1* not encouraging. Why should it not lend money to establish a paper mill or a cotton factory, just aa well? betting aside the fact (which Congress ought never to forget) that the financial condition of the country readers all such schemes preposterous and unwise, the fundamental principle that (be Goverameat should eenfine its action rigidly to matters to which the public interest to directly Involved, to violated by the bUl in que*. la every direction.

Thai he to toe universal choice of the Democracy, we do not for a moment doubt, and all concede that he above all others can deal the death blow to the hydra-headed monster of radicalism la thto District. The General, If he should be nominated, cun not be beaten by such as Orth. He can combine every conservative elsmeat la the District upon himself and and at the same time will add untold strength to the various county tickets. He will make a vigorous canvass—expose toe uojuet and oppressive policy of the bondholders—make radical ears tingle with shame at toe conduct ot their leaders, and lay bare the black aad damning record of Orth and hto corrupt sstelites, both in Congress and at home while setting the wires for hi* o 1 nomination. He to emphatically the man to redeem our District.— Cratofordtville Mevievo.

CafitoF to bleb Klmti? A few days ago the Indianapolis Journal declared ta pedtive terms tost the Republican* were In favor at paying tha 5-20 bond* with greenbacks. It appears, however, that the central organ only represents a faction In lb party upon tbat question. The New York Timet, of a recent date, eontains the following InUUigenee from this State, which puts a different fees upon the matter.

It saye:

The Democrats complain tbst the financial pUnk in the Republican platform 1s not sufflcientiy clear aad itroog. They may be abie ta see iu force more distinctly by listening to the speeches and newspapers of the party. Even in the Western States—ta llltaoto, Indian* aad everywhere else—they have taken the moet decided ground against any form of repudiation, and in favor of maintaining the national credit by redeeming to* astleasl hands in foe esr reney of Uu world. Our ladlann correspondent writes that Hon. Mr. Orth, who has Been nominated for Congress, delivered a speech to toe neminsting Convention, denouncing repudiation in whatever shop* M might be proposed, in unmeasured terms, and declaring emphatically that, K hto eonntituents expected him to veto for any measures tending in that direction, he would refuae to represent them ta the halto of Congress. Wears glad to see that the Republicans are everywhere expressing themselves In such terms on this vital isMniha* too Democrat* earn net remain in doubt as to the position of the party. The national bonds are to be redeemed ta the “currency of the world,” ah? Tbat means. In plnin English, the national debt to to be redeemed fa gold. And the Timet saye the Republicans are everywhere so expressing themselves on what It regards a “vital issue” that there ean no longer he any doubt as to die position of the radical party upon that question. Even that blubber Obth, whose only qualification for the place he balds is that he can blow like a porpoise, in hto speech accepting n (esieminaUob for Congress, emphatically declared to hto constituents that rather than to vote for any measure even tending In the direction of repudiation, ——fc as payieg the 5 20s fa greenbacks for instance, he would refuse to represent them. Virtuous Orth I The radicals are going baek upon their State platform. In February last the Republican State Convention, “amid the wildest enthusiasm,” declared that all the bonds Issued for the public debt should be paid to legal tenders, monly called green backs, except when, by their express terms, they provide otherwise.” Now they lulat^hty must be paid “ta the eurreney of the world,” or gold. How do you like that, greenback Republicans? Will you tide with Orth A Co. upon a* vital aa issue? Ttoe Platform. The New York World, in an article upon “Democratio tewmeay,” thus refers to the platform of the National Convention: “With regard to the platform, we have not > the slfgbtert (bar that the convention will get inton wrangle. There Is Indeed one autgect on which there u considerable difference of opinion In the Demaerftlc party, W* ef conns allude to toe payshUUy efttief twenty bonds <a gnM.

Tax Radical Organ Pettifogging.—The Indiana Journal tries to smooth over Us position, and that of its party, that while it is perfeettv right end proper to psy off the creditors of the State, who lent us gold, in green- M . a backs, it is also perfectly right and proper to — pay off the eredftor* ef the General Government, who tent ua grsswbooks. In goid—tost Is, while one set of creditors should bo paid what te cqoal to about sixty cants on too dollar on toetr Investment, to* other set should be paid about two hundred cents on the dollar on theirs. Tnese are too simple facte in the ease, and no amount of pettifogging on toe part of tho radical organ ean make it appear otherwise; and U thebtato’s foreign bondholders asked, aa the Journal says they did, to be paid their dues in legal tenders, it shows that they had no faith ta to* party in power, and that they war* willing to toko anything ter

the 8tale’s promises to pay.

The Journal says it would require forty per cent additional taxation to pay the State’s bondholders In gold. Yes, and It will take forty per cent additional taxation to pay toe national bondholders In gold. But the Journal team* willing enough that the latter additional taxation should he levied.—Aetc Al-

tbe affairs of tke Government, or they nr* gone up goslings. Sharply, it takas Beast Butler to task for stating that “we are true when we ought te bb in the midst of ■ campaign,” nod eaye that the Beset and the men who voted with him to postpone tho eontid ■ration ef toe tax btii until noxt December, “have bo relish for tost version of legislative duty which implies hard, porsLteat,Judicious work ta providing for tho wants of tho Government end tho country. According to Mr. Butler’s theory, members of Congress go to Washington to play politics—to roar about impeachment, rave about corruption, rant about the President, end enact the demagogue generally. Anything in the shape of practi cal legislation aad rent reform is to him a

nuisance.”

The Times closes Its articie thus; “Not in this manner is the Republican Interest in toe campaign to be promoted. Mr. Butler may Imagine that ’to save toe country to the men who have fought for it for to* last eight yean,’ tt is only necessary to mount the stump and pour forth partisan slang with all the heat aad bitterness of war-time. He te evidently persuaded that he, and such as ha, may carry the country by the sheer force of shouting aad impudence. We hope the delusion te not prevalent for it tends unmistakably to defeat and disgrace. The tactics of Mr. Butler served well some time ago. But the Republican party moat make up its miad to an entirely different mod* of carrying on toe present canvass. The time U peat when gong-beating, aad much thootfag, and fierce gesticulation will enable the parte to achieve great vietones. It to *■ He total in Congress now. He pretentions will he measured by its policy, and its policy by Ua fruite; and toeae will be fewer sod more wortklao- then they ought to be, unless both House and Senate mead their ways daring the next month.” Tteo Last Maaanotewooire Horrws MwFdSF cwrenamed am* Owmfeoa by m Cnnrch fosacew. No case ot mnrdar ta the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, since that ef Dr. Parkman, has excited such painful latere*t as that ef Cornelius Holmes, perpetrated in to* town of Kingston, on too night of Mag 26. Tho two cares have a resemblance In common with toe character of the parties, aad stilt more ta toe ctreumetantiailty cf the evidence fixing the guUt upon to* secured. Andrews has confessed his gtalt after deatai had become vain, and seta up to* preposterous plea of having acted la Mlf-defonre. lb* docoored (Holmes) was found an tho following morning in n grove of pi net, hto hood battered and crushed in the moot horrtbto teamor, an if tho ruthtere had lifted a heavy stone ta both hand* and repeatedly brought It down on too skull of his ristim with ail tho violence of which ho was capable.

At first no one could be suspected. The neighbor* all knew each other, and not bore a character calculated to axelia ovon the faintest suspicion. The murdered men had last been seen at the house of Bamuoi Andrews, a triend, and a deacon of the Congregational Cnursh—a maa who wet without reproach in tea eeesmunity. It could not b* that be had followed from his own door his own friend and brutally stoned him to death. Yet on him snspMon soon fixed, and round him ciieunutaaere hare wov* a network of evidence from which ho seem* unlikely toeeoape. Soeeo operativoe had aeon him go ta to* direction of toe river with a bundle Md return without it. By a singular chaaee, owing to the high water In toe river, to* loosened contents of to* bundle, thrown Into toe water to be carried into deep ooeao, were caught Md held by ererbantf ng willow breaches ujiil they were found Md secured. They proved to re shreos of clothing covered with blood, Md out ef them wee made, without difficulty, a nearly eompieto cost. A pair of rubbers were also found, with pine needles sticking to them. When there facto were brought to light it wee remembered that Andrew*, on the evening ef the murder, although he hsd appointed a religious meeting ai his ewa house, was Inexplicably absent. Hie explanation was tost he was at work ta his garden. Bicod was found on ku vest. He sold he hou been killing chickens. Microscopical red chemical examination proved that It was human blooj with wnich he was stained. Then some ladies recalled that they had met Md spoken with him Ig the eventer, an heM with hie hands to a fence rail white he stood with them.

Tbe almplr, manly offer of to* orav* soldier touched the signora deeply, Md *h* was almost tempted to give him the premia* he asked far; but her innate truthfulness rebelled at thla, and oM told him frankly toe true state of her feeling* ior him. “I do not lova you aa a wife ahuuld,” *M arid, “Md I will not wreag you by marrying you. 1 love you oaiy as aaUter might love a brother.
