In Ills Diocese Attracted Mnch Attention. Bishop John IL Watterson, of the Roman Cathollo Church, was a guest at the Denlon House last night Bishop Watterson has become prominent throughout the coun try and especially In Roman Catholic cir cles on account of his stand upon the temperance question. He Is the one who decided that saloon-keepers were Ineligible to hold office in Catholic societies in his diocese, which decision was the subject of much comment both In the Catholic press and dally newspapers. Bishop Watterson Is very radical In his temperance views and an uncompromising; advocate of total abtlnence. He has been to Chicago, where he delivered some addresses and stopped in this city en route to his home. He preached the sermon at the 10:30 o'clock mass at St. John's Cathedral yesterday morning. It was reported that the purposa of his visit to this city was to confer with Bishop Chatard In reference to the organization of a Cathollo temperance society here. This report was denied by both the bishops last night Bishop Chatard said that Bishop "Watterson had called upon him yesterday evening, but the call was a purely social one ana had no significance in relation to Bishop Watterson's temperance views or Dlans. The visiting bishop only remained a fchort time with Bishop Chatard. During his stay he called on the most or the cathollo clergy of this city and was visited by a number or his mends here. As to the Important temperance ruling which he has established in the diocese of Columbus (Ohio), he said last night: "It seems to me as If this question has been run into satiety, it has been discussed so much in the pres.-. Yet at the same time I believe it is meeting approbation all over the country, and yes. I can say more, with enthusiasm. I do not know that the other dioceses of the country intend to follow that of Columbus. I have never heard or leen Informed as to that, but I should think from the general filing the Question Is creating that there will be others falling into nna in a snort time." "Did your visit to this city have any thing to do with the adoption of the movement In this diocese?" "No," replied the bishop. "My visit here is merely accidental. I stopped over on my way nome to croiumDUs. l preached at St. John's Cathedral this morning to relieve one or me clergymen. CAMPAIGNING ON SUNDAY. Ex-Mayor Sullivan at Make and Eliza beth Streets. Some of the good Democratic brethren. who devote six-sevenths of the week to business and politics and the other seventh to rest and proper devotional exercises, have. It Is Paid, suspended this routine on account of the emergencies of the cam paign. It was even said last night that ex-Mayor T. L. Sullivan, who has always observed the Sabbath personally, though not officially, broke the commandment which enjoins rest on the seventh day. and charged up this remissness not to his conscience, but to the Democratic county com mittee. Mr. Sullivan, it is stated, held services at Stevens's Hall, corner of Blake and Elizabeth streets, yesterday morning, and spread before his hearers the gospel of Democracy, while his pastor, Rev. Mr. Carstensen, was preaching at that hour the true gospel at St Paul's Church. It is hoped, on account of Mr. Sullivan's standing in the church, that the report is ex aggerated, and yet as much as it may be deplored, the report comes on good authority. . As campaigning for Democratic votes this year la the hardest, sort of work. Mr. Sul livan will have much trouble In satisfying nis conscience tnat he observed Sunday, Ktcu i, as a uay ox rest.

I A GYPSY'S CONVERTS

REV. nOD.VEY SMITH'S EVAXELICAL WORK IlEGIXS TO TELL. The Forcefnlneaa of III Comparisons Hundreds Join the Church At Rev. 31 r. Comfort's Church. Central-avenue M. E. Church was packed to the last seat in the gallery yesterday morning to hear the English gypsy evan gelist. Rev. Rodney Smith, who seemed to be at his best. According to his custom, he preceded his sermon with a gospel hymn. 'When Our Ship Comes Sailing Home," which was sung with great effect His text was the injunction of Christ to the fisherman of Galilee: "Launch out Into the deep and let down your nets for a draught" No adequate Idea of the sermons of Mr. Smith can be conveyed by literal reports of his words, which are apt in forcefulness. illustration and analogy, for he preaches with greater force and effectiveness by gesture, manner and Intonation of voice. The leading tl ought of the sermon was that in both personal experience and church work there must be a going forward, that men can afford to take all the risks in. the performance of duty. As showing hi3 effectiveness In Illustration of this truth, one of his stories may be cited. Off the York shire coast of a life-saving station, a ship was seen going to pieces in a frightful storm. The men on shore manned a boat for the rescue. It was launched In the angry waves, running high. Every oar was broken to spllntr, and the boat was tossed on shore. Again k.xd again It was manned and equipped, and finally put out to the foundering ship, which was finally reached, the crew taken aboard and in great danger landed safely. Calling the roll, the captain found one was missing. "Man the boat again; who will volunteer with me for the rescue?" cried the captain. "Do not ven ture," begged the captain's mother. "My other son who went to sea never came back. You can never go out to the ship and return. But they went in great peril, found the missing man, took, him on board and started for the shore. Nearlng It every eye was strained, and a voice louder than the rest cried out from land: "Did you find the missing man?" The captain answered back to the shore: "Yes, and it Is Willie, your missing boy." At the close of the morning sermon a number of people united with the church. In the afternoon the Sabbath school lesson was suspended, and the gypsy evangelist took charge, preaching a brief sermon. Over one hundred were converted. It was a most Impressive scene. At the nl&nt service the great auditorium was full and scores were turned away for want of room. The topic at night was Paul's plea before Felix. It was an exposition of great force. There were thirty to forty conversions at the night services. The meetings are to con tinue during every night of the week. REV. MR. COMFOItT'S SKRMOX. He Speaks of the Real Essence of the C. E. "Watchword. At Downey-avenue Church, In Irvlngton, the pastor, Rev. J. W. Comfort announced as his topic "Christ for tb.3 world, the world for Christ." He referred to the lead ing thought in the minds of many thousands of Christian Endeavorers who have been gathered together In our city this week. It Is published, he said, in their literature; it sounds as the refrain of their music; it ?s the strong tone in their speeches, and the indomitable idea of their lives. Christ does not stand for one age or one people alone, but for all ages and all peoples. It was hard for the Jews to believe that the Messiah would save- any out of the Hebrew faith, and it Is Just as hard for some Christians to believe Jesus will save anyone but those of th!r own religious order. But Jesus said: "I, If I be lifted up from the earth, will draw all men unto me." It Is easy enough to say "Christ for the world. the world for canst," and to make it tne watchword of a Christian convention, the motto of a missionary society, the text of an appeal, the plea, of a church, but it Is not po easy to work out the details or it In our lives In such a way that we shall be workers together with God. "The story of the ages," the preacher continued, "has been a story of expansion of thought larger hope broader faith a better appreciation of what 'redemption' means from God's standpoint, and of what the worth of all human souls is in the sight of Jesus Christ. I believe that the world is advancing towards Jesus Christ I believe that Jesus confidently expected that it would do so. There are more Christians in the world to-day than ever, and I believe that Christianity Itself Is a greater power than ever. There may be less of snow, nut mere is a aeeper sincerity, me trend of the best religious thought and the spirit of the gospel Is 'Christ for the world, the world for Christ.' " AMUSEMENTS.

3IRS. MARY MILLER RECOVERS THE POWER OF SPEECH AT CHURCH. For Fonr Yenr She Hntl Been Vnnhle to Speak Sang; Her Favorite Hymn. Mrs. Mary Miller, living at No. 229 North New Jersey street sang the words of her favorite hymn yesterday morning under circumstances most remarkable. For the first time In over four years she heard the sound of her own voice and realized that a great happiness had come upon her. The experience of Mrs. Miller Is believed to be almost miraculous by her friends. Four years ago, as a result of an unusually severe attack of grip, Mrs. Miller suffered a loss of speech. For several weeks she was deprived of the use of her vocal organs, but after a course of rigid medical treatment found herself able to whisper. Yesterday her voice returned In a manner most singular. Mrs. Miller had despaired of a cure, and until two months ago her physician gave her no hope. From the time that the misfortune came upon her until she regained the use of the vocal organs she received constant treatment for the ailment. At one time two years ago. but for a brief period only, Mrs. Miller was able to speak In an audible tone. The relief was temporary, however. In her younger days and until she suffered the distressing .allliction Mrs. Miller sang a great deal and possessed a clear soprano voice. She was a member of one of the city church choirs and sang regularly each Sunday until attacked by the malady which deprived her of the power of song. Yesterday morning she attended the ser vice at the First Baptist Church. She was accompanied by Mrs. J. M. and Mrs. Charles Sutton, of No. & v est v ermont street, both ladies being intimate acquaintances and familiar with her voice defect The three ladles occupied a pew well to ward the front and listened to the sermon of Rev. O. W. Vanosdel, of Galesburg, 111. The pastor spoke eloquently and Mr3. Mil ler was greatly Impressed with his remarks. At the conclusion of the sermon, Mr. Vanosdel announced the closing hymn, "He Leadeth Me." Although unable to Join in the congregational singing, Mrs. Miller always carried a hymn book, and, as the pastor announced the closing song. she turned to the page in r.er book. Mie recognized In the title one of her favorite selections, and a feeling of regret that she could not voice tha familiar words filled her mind. The concrecration arose and the or'ganlst began playing the brief prelude. As the notes of the instrument nooded the house, Mrs. Miller felt a strange feeling steal over her. A certain bouyancy of spirit that she could not resist, impelled her to follow the words. Her lips moved, but no sound came from them until the concluding words of the first chorus were reached. "By His own He leadeth me," sang the congregation, the clear notes of the so pranos swelling far above tne rest men Mrs. Miller sank down to the seat pale and in an apparent swoon. In a voice, clearly audible to herself, she had articulated the words, "by His own hand He leadeth me, but could carry them no further. The shock at hearing her. own voice rendered her weak and trembling. Mrs. Charlef. Sutton, who stood at Mrs. Miller's side, saw her sink down and grew alarmed. Her friend was very pale and was pitifully nervous. Mrs. Sutton spoke to her. inquiring if she was ill. "No." sail Mrs. Miller, with a gasp, "I am not 111. but I have found my voice. I have been praying for It so long." The effect of the words upon Mrs. Sutton was startling in the extreme. A few minutes before her friend had been unable to speak above a whisper, and now she was conversing in an audible tone. Although the scene was somewhat dramatic, the concrreeatlon was not disturbed and the song was continued to the close. With scarcely strength enough to stand Mrs. Miller heard Ihe benediction, and then with the assistance of her friends left the church. The happy woman was fairly ecstatic over her discovery. For a time -&he was almost afraid to trust herself to speak, so fearful was she that it might prove a dream or some fanciful Imagination. By degrees she assured herself that she could really speak, and then indulged In her new-found happiness to her heart's content. When seen last night she was very hoarse, but was vet in the possession of her voice. "I am so glad." she said, "that I can talk again. It's the most fortunate thing that could happen to me. My throat is very sore to-night, but 1 suppose it is Decause I have been talking so much to-day. Shortly after I left the church considerable blood came from my throat, but I have suffered no other inconvenience. The strangest thine about this is that my voice is not natural. I scarcely recognize it as my own voice, and my friends say that it Is not mine. I don't care for that as long Q3 I can talk." Mrs. Miller 1s a comely widow of forty one vears. Her family Includes a grown s-m and dauKhter. a young lady or twenty. The latter is an accomplished musician. Mr3. Miller 13 an expert whistler, nnJ. though she could not speak or sing, she has found a great deal of comfort In whistling to her daughter's accompaniments on the piano. The daughter was called to Noblesville on Saturday night by the death of a friend, and does not know of her mother's good fortune.. Jefferson Vs. Wilmn. To the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal: Mr. Wilson In his British address to the Chamber of Commerce in London spoke of the Idea of assimilating America to China in the equation of a protective tariff that would exclude the world from us. He has also posed as a Jeffersonian Democrat Tested by Jefferson himself on both these items, let us see If he 13 consistent In a letter written by Jefferson, dated Paris, Oct 13, 1TS3. to Hogcndorp (vide Jefferson's Works. VoL 1, Page 342, et sequltur) he says: "You ask what I think on the expediency of encouraging our States to be commercial? Were I to Indulge my own theory I should wish them to practice neither commerce nor navigation; to stand, with respect to Europe, on the footing of China. We should thus avoid wars and . our citizens would be husbandmen. Whenever, indeed, our numbers should so increase as that our produce would overstock the markets of those nations who should come to seek It the farmers must either employ the surplus of their times In manufactures or the surplus of our hands must be employed In manufactures or navigation. But that day would. I think, be distant and we should long keep our workmen In Europe, while Kurope should be drawing rough materials, and even subsistence, from America. But this 13 theory only, and a theory which the servants of America are not at liberty to follow. Our people have a decided taste for navigation and commerce. They take this from their mothsr country, ind their servants are in duty bound to calculate all these measures on this datum. We wish to do it by throwing open all the doors of commerce and knocking off its shackles. But this cannot be done for othera unless they will do it for us, and there Is no great probability that Europe will do this. I suppose we shall be obliged to adopt a system which may shaeklo them in our ports, as they do us in theirs." Here see protective tariff and reciprocity, both of which are now obnoxious to modern Democracy, but were surely In the head and heart of Thomas Jefferson when he was planning for the greatness and outcome of his native country. Would he hava spoken otherwise had he been the Wilson of West Virginia? Wilson is greeted with the cheers of the British; Jt-ffvraon lived to hate Britain, as see his thought In the first part of the letter from which the above quotation 1 made. The rvoxle of America had better repudiate Wilson and cling to Jcffer-on. J NO. W. RAY. Indianapolis, Oct li

ST0MES OF JACKSON

EX-SEXATOR JONES, OF IOWA, RECALLS THE LOXG, LOXG AGO. ne Was the Godfather of Wisconsin He Xnnied that State, Also Iowa, and Was n Power In the Land. Detroit Letter in New York Commercial Advertiser. Ex-Senator George William Jones, of Dubuque, la,, the man who stood sponsor to Wisconsin "and Iowa and named both States, . and a contemporary of President Jackson, was In this city the other day, and to a Commercial Advertiser correspondent thus talked about ,the times when he was a Senator In Washington: "I graduated from the Transylvania University at Lexington, Ky., in July, 1S25," said Mr. Jones. 'Henry Clay was my college guardian. While at college I was the sergeant of Gen. Andrew Jackson's body guard, and well do I remember the manner in which ha traveled. He came Into Lexington followed by 10,000 citizens as escorts. He had his own large family carriage, drawn by four bloftded horses; there wera two negro men on the driver's seat and one negro who acted as - outrider. When riding in the carriage he would call to the outrider, order him to dismount and he would' get on the horse himself. It was an Imposing spectacle, showing how affairs wera often conducted in quite a regal manner in those days. I shall never forget the reception accorded him on that occasion. When riding on horseback we conversed together and I told him about a classmate of his whom I knew. "Next spring I was sergeant of the bodyguard which acted as escort to Lafayette, the French patriot who took such a strong part in the struggle for American independence, and who was then traveling all over the country, having been Invited htre by the United States Congress in testimony of the high esteem In which he was held by this government and as an evidence of the graitude entertained toward him for past services. There were thousands of persons In the Lexington body-guard. After graduating from college I entered a law office and applied myself to the study of Blackstone and other legal authorities. In 1S11, I forgot to say, I was drummer boy at Ste. Genevieve. Mo., and it is for this as well as for the services in the Black Hawk war that I am drawing a pension today. "The clerk of the United States District Court at Ste. Genevieve died. My brother-in-law and a number of prominent men recommended Col. Joseph E. Grafton for the office. In due time, however, I received a letter addressed to me, with the words, 'clerk of the District Court on the envelope. It was a formidable looking document and the postage on it was $2. It proved to be my appointment to the office. I held the ottice for four years. In the soring of 1S27 Dr. Linn came to me and told rJie to give up the position, as my health had suffered from confinement I told him I didn't want to give it up. " 'Well, then you'll lose Josephine for a sweatheart" he replied. "At this I reflected very seriously, but the argument was certainly unanswerable. " Til give it up. I'll go to Michigan Territory,' I replied. IN MICHIGAN IN 1827. "So I went In 1S27 to Sinslnaway mountains, which were in Michigan then, but are in Wisconsin now. I engaged in merchandising, farming and smelting, and lived on the coarsest food, with the result that soon my health became better. I rode fifteen miles a day on horseback also. The Black Hawk war breaking out In 1832, General Dodge sent his son and adjutant to me to ask me to be his ald-de-camp. I assented at once, for the Indians had killed my brother-in-law In a shocking, manner, They had cut him literally all to pieces, .and his heart was given to the boys to dll,v!da and eat. I was elected as colonel o the militia and was commissioned as such by Governor Porter, of Detroit My competitor was Cojonel William S. Hamilton, son of Alexander Hamilton, who was killed by Jiurr. This was after the war, of which I need not speak at length. I then organized a cavalrv company. One day a committee waited upon me and urged me to accept their recommendation to Governor Porter of my appointment as Chief Justice. I replied that I was not qualified, that I was not a lawyer of ability and that some other person more fitting should be found. The report of the meeting of the committee, when they recommended James Murphy,- was forwarded to the Governor, together with the statements about my refusal to accept the nomination. Stephen T. Mason, the secretary of the Governor, said to Governor Porter, as I afterward learneA that I was the choice of the meeting and should be appointed, as the citizens wanted such action. "Well, the Governor sent the appointment, and I acted as Chief Justice for three years, I was then nominated as a candidate for Congress. My competitors were Hon. William W. Woodbrldge, of Detroit, Morgan L. Martin and Hon. James D. Doty, all three of whom afterward went to Congress. When I arrived at Washington after my election a friend took me to call upon President Jackson. He introduced me as his friend. Jones, of Michigan. . " 'Jones,' said the President, 'if now he were from Missouri, I'd think I'd seen him before. I remember a Jones there.' " 'I'm the Jones,' I said. " 'Give me your hand, my young friend he said heartily. "I worked hard to get Michigan admitted as a State, and to separate Wisconsin. Fortunately, I was successful, and gave Wisconsin Its name. In connection with the appointees for the new Territory. I could tell you a little story. I wrote a certain letter to President Jackson. One dav Donaldson, his secretary, came to me. " 'The General wants to see you,' he said. " 'What General?' I asked, although I knew well. " 'General Jackson " 'Oh, you mean the President? " 'Yea " 'What does he want to see me about? " 'About a certain saucy letter you wrote him about making your own appointees. OH Hickory is foaming at the mouth, I tell you. " Til go over right off A HEARTY RECEPTION. "So I drove to the White House. General Jackson was seated before a big table with his feet on It and In his mouth was a pipe with a stem two feet long. He called out to me heartily: " 'Walk In and take a seat my son. I have received your letter. You claim you want all these offices for your constituents?' " 'I do. sir " 'Do you not know the office of a Governor of a Territory Is an important one? Dn you think you have any one who is qualified to fill such a position?' - " 'I do think that, sir "Who Is it?' he asked. " 'General Dodge " 'General Dodge. I don't know him. Where lz he?' " 'He is now colonel of cavalry in the Rocky mountains " 'That is the man your constituents want for Governor?' " 'Yes, sir; that is the man " 'You know this Is an unprecedented request? " 'I fear so " 'Hitherto these officers have all been appointed by the State? " 'YaS. sir " 'Well, my son. you shall have him. Notwithstanding my Cabinet opposes him, you shall have him, I promise you " 'How about th other officers, sir " 'Colonel, I can't give you the Judges, but go to the Secretary of State and he win show you the Judges who hav3 Leen recommended and you may see them and point out the choice of your constituents. Make out a list of the officers provided1 for in your bill separating Wisconsin "I thanked him and left, naturally elated over the Interview with Old Hickory. Then I went to see the Secretary of State and toM him what I wanted. ' "You can't see those papers he said. "'The President, told me I could look a; them.' He regarded me with amazement " 'Did he tell you that? " 'Yes "'All right; I'll show them to you, of course, but this is an unprecedented case.' "I looked over the list picked out fourteen men and they were the ones who were appointed. Wisconsin was established July 4. 183). I was elected twice afterward from Wisconsin. Michigan Territory in those early days embraced what is now Michigan, Wisconsin, low, Minnesota, Nebraska, the two Dakotas and Oregon, extending, as you sec, from the eastern part of the State of M!ch!,ran to the Pacific ocean. In 1SC8. two years later. I had estabbsh'd th terrltorv i of Iowa, which I named. Mr. Calhoun, of

South Carolina, opposed the separation of Iowa. I asked him upon what grounds. " 'Because it will become an Abolitionist Stat? he replied. " 'But there is not an Abolitionist there I argued. " 'Wait until you see how the other States

i will pour their population into Iowa he returned. 'There will be an inilux irom tne East. " Then you will not vote for the separation of Iowa? " 'I cannot OTHER RECOLLECTIONS. "Iowa did, indeed, become the strongest Republican State. President Van Buren gave me the same privileges for my constituents regarding the appointment of the officers that President Jackson had extended to me. About this time I was second in a duel which made quite a stir. Cilly, of Maine, was challenged by Graves, of Kentucky, for In those days all differences could be settled but one way. Cilly asked me to act as hl3 second, and I did so. The two men met; I gave the signal to fire, and at the third fire Cilly fell to the earth. I ran to him, but he only gasped once or twice and expired in my arms. "In December, 15CI9, I was appointed Surveyor-general by John Tyler's administration. In November, 1841, I was appointed clerk of the United States District Court at Mineral Point Wis. In 1S13 President Pierce restore.! me to the office of Surveyorgeneral. In IMS 1 was elected Iowa's first United States Senator and re-elected ia December, 12. President Buchanan appointed me as minister to Bogota, United States of Colombia, and I saw some exciting times while acting in that capacity. I was minister for three years. While In Bogota I gave a passport to one Aaron Guron, who wa3 an American citizen. He started for Venezuela, but was arrested and condemned to be shot I went to see the rebel leader. General Muspuera, and he finally sent the man to prison. Two weeks afterwards the president of the republic, his secretary and other high officials of the government were taken prisoners by the general and sentenced to be executed. Then all the ministers, myself included, went to the general and made speeches urging him not to take such extreme ac tion. He listened to the speeches and finally agreed to send the men to prison." Ex-Senator Jones related many other Interesting anecdotes, among them one which . occurred in Washington In 1S58. Governor Dodge, of Wisconsin, had placed $10,000 In the bank of Colonel Selden, treasurer of the United States. The Colonel's bank failed and the Governor was informed that he would have to lose the money. The Governor did not propose to submit to such an indignity, and in those times the custom provided a remedy for a gentleman who was aggrieved. Accordingly the irate Governor promptly challenged the Colonel. The latter did not know what to do. Senator Jones went to Governor Dodge and explained that the Colonel had twenty slaves he would turn over to him, but this would not do. So Senators Mason and Jones consulted. "Why not get Corcoran, who is rich, to buy the slaves?" was suggested. So Mason went to Corcoran, and the $10.000 was forthcoming, and blood between two such prominent personages was not spilled. Senator Jones took part In many duels as a second, and In his early days had a little affair of his own to look after. He was to have fought with an army officer named Williams. They met, but Williams apologized on the field of battle. For this he was asked to resign from the service, and did so. Ex-Senator Jones will remain here, perhaps, a fortnight. He is hale and hearty, notwithstanding his age, and has a remarkable memory for details. He is a Democrat, and although he has not taken an active part in politics for many a day, he watches with interest the national issues now before the people. PLAI.V FACTS FOR DEMOCRATS. A Seurohlntr and Accurate Analysis of the Party: Richmond (Va.) Times (Dem.) The Democratic voters of the State are apathetic and indifferent, and we believe that apathy prevails all over the United States. This apathy is not accidental. It proceeds from a radical cause. It has grown out of the fact that the Democratic party has come to be a great gathering of all sorts of people with all sorts of diverse and antagonistic views, and without one single aim in-view that all of its members are enthusiastically devoted to and anxious to see accomplished. That ia the literal fact, however humiliating a confession It may be. One set of so-called Democrats are seeking to make this government coin up all the silver in the world into legal-tender dollars, worth each less than to cents, while another set Is seeking to hold the government down in its coinage of the precious metals to the issue of gold dollars and sllver dollars which shall be of the same value. Here Is a difference In the purposes of two sets of men, each calling themselves Democrats, which Is as radical as the difference between sin and religion. One set, calling themselves Democrats, demand that In Imposing customs taxes the government shall impose the same rate of taxation upon all imports, so that each person taxed shall pay the same rate that all others pay, while another set, calling themselves Democrats, insist that the government shall Impose taxes upon some imports, but allow others to come In free according to the whims and humors of those who have the distribution and assignment of the favors and the burdens. In addition to these causes of apathy, which affect Democrats in all parts of the Union, the Virginia Democrats have the special cause of apathy that our State politics of the past few years has developed. The people have seen an era of ring rule and machine politics gradually grow up in the State under the corrupting Influence of money used in elections and cheating at the polls, which has utterly disgusted and disheartened the strong and active ele ments of the party. When they see their party s autnonties stun ballot boxes with false ballots every citizen asks himself: "Why should I vote? My vote will have no Influence upon the result. After all the voting is over the managers of the machine will put such and as majiy ballots into the boxes as will be necessary to make the result of the el??tlon what they desire that it should be. and I had. therefore. Just as well have not voted as to have voted." There has been no such combination of men seen in this country as what we now pall the Democratic party since the day that General Harrison ran for President on his "coon-skin, log-cabin, hard-cider" plat form, and that was to irlve everybody ev erything. It is impossible that any such comDinauon, representing such diverse and antagonistic views, can establish any strong hold upon the confidence of men, or enlist any active enthusiasm In securing the election of its candidates for office. CURRENCY OF OTHER DAYS. Sonic Monetary Inconveniences of the Old Continental Timer. Washington Star. Washington city never saw a "sharpshin." The old currency of other days never bought a drink r paid a laborer within the limits of the federal city. The new seat of government came in as the old currency went out Yet its history Is full of interest. The currency question was a burning one in the United States 110 years ego. Indeed, much of, the paper currency had come to be of such a plight that it seemed fit for nothing but burning. The . continental paper money which had largely contributed to wn liberty, had been disabled, like most of the soldiers, and sinking from par to l.OOO fur 1, hsd gone out of use. Says Geors Tucker: "The paper money, which, in the ftm years of the revolution, constituted the general currency of the country, had a great and varied Influence. It was at first an efficient as well as chief resource, and enabled the Congress to defray the expenses of war when they were without specie or any sure and speedy msans of obtaining it Even after the currency had depreciated, as was evident in 1776, it still was a valuable auxiliary to the government without revenue or the power of taxation, but if It rendered these benefits to the American people in the!r collective capacity It often proved most Injurious to individuals. As the depreciation, after it began, continued steadily to advance, until the paper lost all value, every one wzj compelled to pas3 the money at a less rate than he, had received it. In this way it operated as a general tax and the 09n was in a measure equalized. But between debtors and creditor the case was very different When this money was used for the payment of debts, as It commonly was from necessity, as well as choice, the depreciation fell solely upon the creditor class."
