If the editor of the

Journal

attended

that meeting, and remained on the ground fur anv length of time, lie knows that the audience "dwindled to small proportions" after the lirst forty-live niin-

Dan's

speech. The orator

did not succeed in holding the attention of hi* hearers, because he gave them very little that lie had not given them on previous occasions. More ihan four-fifths of all that he said was spoken iv him in every speech that he made in this District during his brief canvass before his nomination and lie imd told the same story, in the same words, a dozen or more limes since his nomination. No man, whatever may be iiis ability, or however great his oratorical powers, can hold an audience, in Terre llaute, bv rehashing a dish that iias already been served up to them .several times. This fact may protilably be remembered by speakers of both parlies.

The _\V»- lu/ectic Mai/a'.ine,

a Baltimore

periodical, makes some comparisons in The Green Table"' of its August number

between the Revolutionary records of -New Kngland and Maryland. The wri:er think- the people—especially the wri,eis and speakers—of the latter State have been hithertoaltogether too modest, bev seldom allude, he says, to the glorious and inspiring deeds of their forefathers, "while the incidents of early New England history, or at least the creditable ones, are perpetually on the lips of New Kngland orators, and chanted by .\'ev Kngland poets to audiences who listen with never-llagging delight." He iereis to the much-vaunted exploit of the k'.oston tea party, who assumed the disJiii«e of Indians, and under cover of darkne» threw overboard the obnoxious

tea, and intimates that the darkness, disguise, and mystery were necessitated by the timidity and torvism prevailing in the city. Contrasting this with ihe tea-burning at Annapolis in the same year, he says: "Hero the course 10 be taken was publicly and calmly discussed in open assembly: the resolution 11 rived at was openly announced and carried out in the face of day, the owner of the vessel himself applying the torch. I hi:. w:ii the -Maryland way of doing the thing, and lo our mind the calm judicial Jiyiiitv of the procedure, the unanimitv uf -.entimenl, the absence alike of passion

j-iiil of concealment are far worthier of commemoration and admiration than the :u*L of men who. even for a patriotic purpose, had to assume the garb of conspirators and do a deed of darkness." The Philadelphia iVcs.. suggests thai such reelections as the-'-e, whether .just or not. are in very bail taste. Massachusetts, however vain c.f her own record, attempts 110 disparagement of other sections. 11 the .onttary, the Iiterat 111 0 of New England leetns with tributes of juai-e 10 the daring and seif-saerilicing patriotism of

A APK MA\ INCIDENT.

Ambitious Mamma al'lei- an I111ugiiuin l.onl.

Not many davs ago there was a rather loud woman down here, avs the (.'a/x Jliiq II lire', rich and vulgar, swooping around with her daughter and putting 011 more airs than you eould grind out of a hand organ. One man, who was disgusted at the aristocratic pretensions of the 'couple, thought he would have a little fun at their expense. So one dav be pointed out a good-looking fellow who was passing the hotel, and mentioned

the woman, in a

mui

"SJ

of careless, otl-

iiaud way, that the good-looking fellow was a lord, who had just arrived in the .•Mintiv. and was stopping for a while at ap« May. This woman, you understand, I more tha tat she rope

•vaiited an introduction, s,, could set her daughter at work tc in ibis scion of a noble house. -1 ranger was presented the next evenm in the parlor, and this designing liein if a mamma began iiim. ^he kepi 011 exclaiming how much she had always admired the English nobility. J.111I bow much she longed to see them in their own beautiful homes and then she. aked thi- man ii he did n•( -onietiines long tor his island home, and bate the society of the vulgar Americans, and sigh tor hit high-born companions. At last the man turned around and ^hemust nave made a mi-take: he didn't led cent for aristocracy he had and home, for he came from and he had no high-born companions, miles* sotne of his iriends were born in a yarret. So this woman rose right up -nil pranced out to the fellow who introduced her to the aristocrat, and she said: ".See here! I though! von said that man was a lord

A FEW "WORDS OF WARNING.

EDITOR KOCVILLE REPUBLICAN: I

propose in the present paper to digress somewhat from the line pursued in my former articles, for the purpose of reviewing sonic of the vagaries which trouble the minds of some very honest,

'mistaken

Di: KODAK

but very

friends. These men repudiate

the idea of reputation, but deprecate the return to specie payment. They fear that if greenbacks should become equal in value to gold, the creditors of the government would receive better money than thegovernment received of them. They are therefore, in favor of inflation, in order that greenbacks may depreciate in value, say to fifty cents to the dollar. They argue that this would stimulate industry and enterprise and relieve the debtor c:la-:s, while the wages of labor would be increased in a proportion beyond the increased price of the necessaries and luxuries of life. But they do not stop here thev cannot resist the op|iortunity to betray their hostility to capital and to those who furnished us the sinews of war to put down the rebellion. I have recently read an address on "National Finances," bv a gentleman of our county and from his array of ligu res and other evidences of his researches, he proves conclusively that somebody i? deplorably responsible for overlooking so profound a financial genius, and in selecting as "first lord of the Treasury a man of such mean abilities as (Jeorye S. Koutwell! As I would not criticise ibis

The author savs labor must tight capital. This presupposes that capital and labor are antagonistic. Is this proposition true? I deny it, and assert the contrary. What can labor effect without capital? or, what can capital effect without labor? The two go together in order to make either productive. Labor is the key to unlock the treasuries of wealth, not only of the mines of California, Colorado and Montana, but of the forests of Maine and Michigan, of the cotton fields of Mississippi, the sugar fields of Louisiana, and the rice fields of South Carolinia, as well as all the trades, pursuits and enterprises which distinguish our age and country. O11 the other hand capital alone furnishes the means of rewarding labor. If there were no capital whence would the laborer receive his wages? But the author wants to water our currency and make it thinner, in order to make the laborer rich and the capitalist poor. He thinks that by doubling the volume of currency it would effect a kind of Agrarianism—a redistribution of property. This is.justabout as sensible as all the rest of the document. The prcf.ision of figures immediately antecedent lo this propositional seems to have muddled the author's brain lo the extent of rendering him oblivious of events of the past in our recent exper ience. He says if the volume ot money in the country should be doubled (meaning greenbacks) prices of all commodities, having generally a uniform value, would be doubled. A day's work that, under the first volume of money would command one dollar, would, under the double volume, command two dollars." Now is this proposition true? If it is not the whole superstructure falls to the ground. Fortunately the proposition is sostated that its truth or falsehood is susceptible of demonstration. When our greenback currency was at its

mum

The proper estimate of labor is the amount of the necessaries and luxuries of life that a given amount of labor will purchase. But did the laborer get for his wages, even in greenbacks at one hundred and and sixty-five per cent, discount, twofold more Ihan he receives now? Then unskilled labor ranged from SI .j(J to S'2

•jl)

per day, owing to the kind of work, and the locality now it ranges from SI 20 to S2 00 per day. Then the mechanic got from S2 ."0 lo $3 00 per dav, now begets the same, or perhaps five per cent. less. But how was it then when he went toTniy the necessaries of life? Calico sold from o7 A to 4-3 els. per yard the same quality of goods can now be bought for fVoiu to 12 cents per yard. Brown muslin then sold at tj.j to 8-3 cents per yard now the same quality sells for 1 3 to Itlr cts. p«r yard. Londsdale muslin then cold for 73 to WO cts. per yard now it sells for '_'U cents. Factory .Jeans then sold for SI 75 $2 00 per yard now you can get a better article for 75 cents. Coffee sold for -3.3 to (5.3 cents per pound now at from 22 to 2S cents. Sugar ranged from oO to 40 cents per pound now from 14 to lOs cents.— There was still a greater difference in imported fabrics which always sympathize with gold. Then the laborer and mechanic paid from SG 00 to $8 00 per hundred for flour now from $ Ot) to S" 2-3. The farmer then got from $9 00 to SlO HO per hundred for his hogs now from $S (lO toSS 30. For his cattle he got then from 3 to cents per pound begets the same I now. The wages of women then and I

now are the same, while they can now I Jm-uti bat*. 1 get three limes a much goods of the NATION A same quality for their wages a-- thev could then.

Such is the least to which the lahyrer, '.the mechanic, and the people generally I are invited by this astute politico economist—who would carry us back to the days ot 18(:! anil 18(54. Awav with such harlatanisial The above facts are worth :in a million theories. No man is

so simple as to lie unable to comprehend their teachings. The laboring man, the mechanic and the farmer have nothiii? lo gain, and all to lose, by inflation of the currency. If this policv were to

be adopted, ali the surplus volume of the new issue would go direct Iv into the hands ot ihe capitalists in pavnient of their bonds, and they but too well know how to use it to their own advantage, and at the expense of labor, as our pas? experience shows.

And. in enutii iaiing this truth, it is m.t to be inferred that labor and capital are unfriendly to each other: but that undue advantage results in J'avor of capital by inllation, in proportion that the beam of the lever is increa'ei},in length. My meaning will lie hwter understood bv an illustration: A has Si.000 in gold: has non,-. A sell- his gold for°-j) per

cent, premium and receives Sl.oOO in greenbacks, to operate upon in business. Hhicli, il either, is benefited bv the innation, through which A reafize* SoOO additional capital? The be all ideal, but the pleasure of tli normal or healthv

ouse that finances, when the

at anv

gain to A

may

is even deprived of intatuation. The condition of the ciirrencv conforms

,„.f in Ppi'oximates the standard of 1.1 gold alue. is ij

condition best adapted

to the general prosperity of society. 1 1 1 a to the laboring classes. Hence weseea state ot prosperity prevailing at this time as ve approach specie payments, in the a^ erage transcending almost anv former

period in our history. Indeed, it would be difficult to select a time in the {fast when a day's work would purchase so much of the necessaries and comforts of life as at the present time. It is, therefore, to say the least, a disreputable employment and a criminal misapplication of time in any man, to labor to render the people unhappy and discontented with their situation, when in fact they were never so- well lo do before. Hie fulsome eulogy 4estowed "by the Indianapolis

Sentinel,

which publishes the document

referred lo, should cause every patriot to ponder whither he is tending, when he so far loses his bearings as to be intluenced by such an agency.

011

STEIN,

1. lit so! red,

address

is exhib

ited in the low demagogism of an attempt to array different classes against each other—capital against labor, the debtor against the creditor class. Yet we can afford to pass this by, if an examination shall result in proving the correctness of its theories.

Esq., and

adopted without opposition^ The first sots forth precisely what Protectionista are seeking, as follows

ciple of fair and just protection to home industry, not only as applied to wool and woolens, but to other branches of production and manufactures, opening the way for competition, for fair wages, for increase of home trade, home market, healthy foreign trade, and the best good of the people.

The next resolution correctly states what we earnestly believe to be the real origin of the l'ree Trade movement, and its natural effects, should it ever be the misfortune of the country to become infatuated enough to yield to its demands 2,

jRe-iolcal.

That, we recognize the Free

Trade movement as a struggle on the part of our British competitors for the control and possession of our markets bv breaking down our new industries, which control would be disastrous to our industry and finances.

I11 the third resolution the Free Traders are called upon to haul down their false colors and come out as the open and undisguised enemies of well remunerated labor: l.

Ilemved,

Traders to take open ground for free trade and low wages—the latter being the inevitable result of their theory—and no longer claim or pretend to be the friends of the workingman, when in fact they are lus enemies, and their success will reduce him to the pauper pay of the British factory workmen, or deprive him wholly of employment.

The last resolution gives a fair challenge to the manufacturers of Europe, who desire to supply our markets, to meet us on a fair fooling, instead of attempting to undermine our industries and to cripple our labor in an underhand manner, while bearing none of our burdens and taking little or nothing of our home products: 4.

Resolved,

mart-

befor the contraction complained of by our Parke County,financier, though not double the present volume, a gold dollar was worth two dollars and sixtyfive cents in greenbacks. Let us inquire who profited by this state of things, the capitalist, or the laborer? "Which got rich by reason of the inflation, the laborer, or the man who speculated in stocks and produce and merchandise? We have only to refer back to 1.3(53 and 1SC4, and the whole problem is solved, without theory, or speculation, or a confusion of meaningless columns of figures.

We commend these resolutions to the attention of laboring men everywhere. They are the avowed sentiments of solid business men of the West aud South. They equally express the voice of intelligent agriculturists all over the land. They were not drawn up by politicians or passed by a political convention. They are the voice of men of all parties^North and South, consulting their highest interests as business men.
