The stuff so far published i1 all Koaad and fury, signifying nothing. "Jol" are breaking out all over the preliminary work of tLerbiladfiphiatTit?nnia! baow for 'tis their nature, a one miht say to follow af;er appropriations. There is something like ten millions of dollars to "lay out' on the sliow and it iieeden't be vurpri3ing if there b some pretty tall stealing. Kor a lit!l3 while at least, perhaps out-Md is had bc-tt r look on and see bow the brethren run tHnra, and if the stealing 1 rot too general the country nijht was e a littlo. The present Massachusetts legislature, Uocse and senate, have expunged tLo n-äo-latlon censuring CbarlesSuinner for bis bat-tle-fl.tg resolution. It was the body elected with Grant which put tbU singular piece of legislation upon record, and it was the body elected last fall which expunged it. At this rule the next body elected will return the great senator to the place be baa honored for twenty years. The costly Moth, gave the irrepressible Cox a chance to make one of bis inimitably satirical speeches in tho House the other day. A few of the most telling pointj are presented elsewhere. The ay the little gentleman punctured the plea for extravagance should be a lesson to lax members for all tiiae, but it won't. There is nothing the avtrage member forgets so soon as tho value of money wheu th povernment own it. Mr. Dawes, cnalrman of the house committee of ways and ruea,3, electrified his republican friends by Lis little speech ou the financial condition of the government, not less than Matt. Carpenter did in his arraignment of the administration inths Louisiana case. The defections cf tbeso party eadera are not new, but tLey show the inevitablo -tendency cf the rogues to make tho party toe bot for tlio loss abandoned members to stay in. Mr. Dawes with a cold and unsparing candor points out that at the end of the year the treasury balance would be some twenty millions, but ttOTarious drains upon it in tho shape of appropriations for the Indian Bareau.Southern Claims and others, which will reduce it to half that sum. As lor increased taxation, the people will not submit to it, and that is tho end of it. His plan of relief is simpiy economy and retrenchment. In the course ot his remarks, Mr. Dawes animadverted vey sharply upon the wasteful extravagance of tho government. The party organs will cf course have their hov1 over it. Tho result of the recent strike in thi3 city will be mora far reaching than at first sup posed. Particular care has been taken to watch tne comments or tue state press on the printer's outbreak and the points repro duced in these columns attest the abhorrence in which the striking principle is held by the entire press of tho state. Out ' of one hundred or more intelligent journals, there are but two or tbreo which gave any countenance to the vicious prin ciple whK:n the striking printers represent, It is very rarely that the press is found so completely united upon any point. Aetna! knowledge of the evils involved have led the editors to speak out boldly and help awaken the working men to the dangerous ' position in which unprincipled men may put them. These papers had no motive to give a biased opinion; they have not been solicited, ttey were not themselves annoyeJ "by the union to any great extent. Being mostly country papers em ploying cut a few prlntrcs and those as a general thing fixtures, thcyhavono persona' interest in the matter. Again, these out spoken journals are not the representatives of capital, but on the contrary are thorough sympathizers with labor and the labor interest. Their opinions are therefore the .honest expression ot a calm judgment. And the united judgment of disinterested men is not likely to be wrong. It is, indeed, certain to bo right. No sophistical defense can stand against the sense of right and justice as it exists in :J1 minds outside of such aa are warped by special influences. There is therefore an impressive lesson in this voice of the press that men who are dis posed to be thoughtiul and candid cannot refuio to study. Rattermilk and bullocks bood are the elixers of life which we have been seeing these many generations at least that's what may be inferred from the statement 01 a so Der uoston paper which never prints anything moio exciting than the live stock report. This saga ciocs sheet, relatw that a Mr. Stickney, -who proudly flintrs his name to the world, , has been at the butcher's abuttoir for treatment. That he went there emaciated to a skeleton, but after a period of blood drinking, ho has been completely restored in health, and gained enormously in flesh. I lis method was simply to drink a goblet half filled with wann blood fresh for the slaughtered beast. This regime was continued ton weeks, when Mr. Stickney retired a porfes'.ly restored and rejuvenated man. This gantleman says that ten or twelve other patients at the same place are picking up with ciual rapidity. A consumptive whj went there on the verge of the gravo is now able to swing an axe and "knock down J abulia;!:." A woman apparently an it cur-1

CMtnTbrtirigly a'lds that the best -part 01 ttl wonderful restoration istliHjts c6ts, r.oth, leg beingj without money and without price. Apropos ot this wonderful thing, a Minnesota pHpr relates the opposite eiTect oftlooi. 'A physician at St. l'aul, holdlrga pest mortem examination, scratched his finger slightly oa the bone of the subject,' and 'the -result was almost fataL II.s hand was swelled to an alarming oxtent, and death pc? mr.d imminent, when an amidol o was found. The principle of tho last incident is well known, and the virtue cT tho fin-t has been told in story for tnanj- a hundred years. , The roromances of tho iniddio agos aro filled with cases in which moaarchs and Great personages have been revived" by draughts of warm blood, but goncrally humau blood, from beautiful women, cr heal thy babes. The builock is much bttter and will moot with less opposition by thoso dis posed to trst the no vol elixir. It will bo Dleaaut uaws to taeauiet inmalob ol the various prisons and peniteutiar'tcs in this favored laud to learn that the ccurtof appeals of New York, consisting of seven learned law-makers, have disagreed with the lower court in the famous carLook murder case, and that they'havo reversed the decision, awarding Mrs. Putnam 13,000 damages for ihe death of hc-r husband. It is too soon for tho reader to bavo forgotten the atrocious story. Mr, Futnam got into a btroet car w ith a lady at oue street, and left it wouuded to death a few blocks farther on. A bully on this car persisted in insulting the Lidiea in Mr. Putnam's care. He rc.eni,ed it. Tho car stopped. The bully, Foster, grabbed the drivers car-hock and smashed bU victims skull. The court decreed the railroad company liable, and assessed 5ö,000 fine, and . the superior or court of appeals decide the verdict not sustained by the testimony. That the evidence did not show tho driver culpable of negligence? You'd be surprised to learn perhaps that the chief of this celebrated bench, is a perpetual candidate for the presidency of the United States which his tiamo it is Churche San ford? , : ! ! Mr. Dawes has enlivened the dreary waste of party debate in the house a great many times by thoroughiy honest expositions of the; short-comings of tho party and its leadera, and his last work of this sort w ill be found to what Inferior vo his 'previous performances. The main points of the speech are presented elsewhere, and to it the reader !s referred and asked to. make his own comtrxutg. Mr. Dawes as the oldest mt 'berof tbo present Congres probably understands tho conditions which impede the cuttingdown of departmental expenses, better than any man in the country. He has not hesitated to l'Aako ueo of this knowledge, and tho effect can not prove other than wholesome to Congress and tho country at large. Dealing simply with the facts, we fiud that by the beaker's exhibit, the financial condition of the government has been growing werse and worse from year to year and the figures clinch this in the following fashion for tho last few years: YiaiB. Expenditures. Debt paid. 1H),IJMM ll,(Ht t'.iK'O.K'O Nothing. 1S70 ....f-X'iM'Ol'.OU isri , 1 6 2S...M...M lSjOM .. 1S"1 irr.:.!,! iSAVKXVKiU oW.UUyJD These figures aro not always accessible to tho enquiring student, and had they been put forth by a member of auy other than the republican party, they would have been promptly and vehemently denied. During those halcyon days of plenty, when the treasury bulletins, over Mr. Uoutwell's sign manual, informed the country of tha decrease of . the debt, Mr. iVxwcs shows that the funds were taken from ir :ii(ioary balances or a cooked surplus. Untier the very best possiblo showing from tho f guns furnished, the treasury department will be short something over ?52,000,009 in July - next. In every detail tho exhibit of the national treasury ii shown at a disadvantage art' tho only remedy is a large addition to taxation with an equal reduction of ex- , penditures. The latter is fought tooth and nail by the rings that run the government, and wo may prepare for a vast increase of tho taxes on commcrcirl articles, such as tea, coffee.calt and fabrics. Mr. Dawes' voice, however, as chairman of the ways and means committee, will be found useful in opposing this remedy. Ho thinks it would bo a disgrace to the country in time of peace to in create taxation, nor any less discreditable to borrow money to carry on the govern ment, or pay the interest on the debt. His nlan is the knife and he shows where it may be used with most, wholesome effect. The go eminent swarms with super-numeraries in every branch of the service and at very point ot the compass, and fifty millions may be savod'by prunnig thebo wasteful branches of extravagance. Bnt reading over the calm, earnest, and dig nified statement of the chairman of the wajb and means committee, are you not struck with admiration for the well, let us call it after Ihe manner of men "cheek" wHh which our senior senator faced the ccr ntry end eulogized the administration as the most economical, and the civil service the beat and cheapest on the planet? The Connecticut republicans have " gono batk" on Grant. They came together ad novor whereascd once In his laudation. They didn't even point with pride" to the "achievements" of the administration or the " record" of the party. Indeed, by all the preconceived signsand; tokens these nut-meg republicans have broken the faith and can not stand in the temple of the faithful in any cthor Ii2ht than sore heads of tha mofet "frightful kind. Even wheu they tried to uso the syrup of party servitude, they poured out gall. In commending the president's non-iu-tarferenco In the Texas business they made the most marked condemnation of his Louisiana outrage. These wooden republi cans, emboldened by the late expressed desire und of the president to ''unload," go further stiilo a treasouabla' chori by

glorifying the non-interference of Federal

thorlty or officials in state elections, as well as In' Louisiana.' Mr. Carpenter; said something "6ft fie sort In the senate the other day and was denounced a traitor for iL That loyal personage Mr.. Morton remarking with touching pathos that such a policy would deluge the South in blood. There is nothing . like blooi aud thunder for hurrying Oliver to the front. He reveU in gore. Possibly, because he hasn't much himself. ; The Connecticut republicans demand a non-interference with the eurrency and suggest a close cat in the expenditures as a mean3 tf grace and economy, hitherto unknown to thQ great rvartr. The Connecticut republicans tell the truth in their platform, and are to that extent alone in tho Hold. Tha platform, which is not a platform according to the old notions, virtually admits that thero is no longer any principle holding its members together, and that tha voter is at liberty to vote whero he pleases but that if he votes with the paity, ho will have the same old rot served up with all the condiments of tho season. It is not surprising that the "Washington folks are palsied by this chi.m which fortokens the split up of the party, aud it is very probable that there are others than democjats aud liberals who will benrGenoral Ilawley's defeat for the senate with fortitude and resignation. ' The editor of Harper's Weekly has a van tage ground of observation not afforded all the political writers of the day. Mr. Geo. Wm. Curtis, is as much of a partisan as an honest man can bo, and he has come to the conclusion that the parties that claim existence, represent nothing dear to or deserved by the people. Here is a marked utterance iroin a recent discussion of the political sit uation, which very aptly touches the rea condition of things: "The political situation 'is remarkable. The republican party, in 'unquestioned possession of the government, 'has no policy upon any of the most pressing questions before the country. The demo'cratic party, suprefluous and hopeless, Is 'not even a skillful opposition, bnt, with a folly that would be inconceivable except 'for fourteen years' experience of it, nomi'natcs Fernando YVood for Speaker, and re sists the rivil eights bill. There .was never 'a time within the memory of men now ac'tive in public affairs, when party ties were 'so relaxed." The Sentinel has been ire pressing this point on its readers for months; and the people are giving it heed, all ove; the land. . There are none who seek, to ignore or dcay it, save self-seeking pol iticians, bent on their own selfish gain. The blind who refuse to 6ee the pres ent "tendency of the times will meet some very disagreeable surprises in the course of time. The chaps who put their trust in caucuses and conventions will find themselves leaning on very rotten support. The country is about to be governed, for a few years now, by officials selected by the majority in open day, fairly and above board, not by caucuses or rings. Mr. Curtis has como to eee this and whoever mingles much with men can not fail to have it brought home. Caucus craft is precisely as arbitrary and undemocratic as king-craft, and this country has been ridden too far by it. Let us practice something like freedom of choice just to see how it will pro. "We may perchance find honest men to fill our offices. Instead of petering out, as its envious rivals have been prophesying, the Chicago Inter-Ocean has changed form from a bunlius folio, to a magnificent quarto, very similar la plan and make-up to the 2Cew York Tribune. The col umns are wider and the sheet considerably larger than the other Chicago dailies, aud when the machinery works smoothly there is no reason why the paper should not be as presentable as its ew lorlc protrotypc. . The Inter-Ocean is growing iu strength daily, and is a very much better paper now than its best friends ever imagined it could be made six months ago. Were it not for Its dlsheartenln; political subserviency, there is the "makings' of a journalistic power iu the oddly named sheet. TO WHOM IT MAY COXCERX.

Gentlemen: Last Friday, on my trip from Iu dianapolis to this place, I met on the same train as myself John Flshback.of the Sentinel, and in a somewhat lengthy conversation with him on the present strike of your Vnlon, he informed mcthathehad the promise of Governor Hen dricks that he (Fishback) might delay the state printing for which he has contracted for a period of six months, in order to break the strikers. Perhaps Governor Hend ricks has go promised, and perhaps not. I have only tha word of John Fishback that he has done so. mat t lsnuscx so reported him to me 1 am ready to mane amuavn. would It not be well to ask Gov. 11. to rise and explain wheth er be has promised the Indianapolis publishers to use ulNlnnuenco against any class of work ingmen who are peacefully trying to better their condition. If lie has done as Fishback says he has, it Is time the printers' and other trades union men of Indiana Knew it. Yours truly, P. J. Cunningham. The above note appeared in the Union of yester day in connection with some comments reflect ing upon Governor Hendricks. In Justice to that gentleman, I desire to say that the portion of it In relation to the promise of the governor, that the state printing might be delayed for six months, or any other time, Is sot true. I did not see Governor Hendricks during the time of the strike and had no conversation with him upon that subject. Neither did I tell "P. J. Cunnlgham" that I had such a promise. Joint Fishback. ..

The American Bee Journal says: (To test the difference between keeping bees near a town of 8.000 inhabit ants, and having thorn wholly in the country, we last year took an average stock to board with a farming frtend, and it gather ed just four times as much honey as the best of our in-town stocks. We nave a bee keeping acquaintance who lives on the edge of an extensive cranberry swamp, and his bees do better than those of any other apiary in the whole region. In very early spring, and even late in the fall, the bees appeared to find something to do in the swamp. Our Minnesota friends owe their extraordinary success to the vast stretches of basswood near which they live. We would say to all who contemplate going into bee-keeping as 1 business, chooso your locality wisely. It will pay on a small scale to keep bees in many places, where it would hardly be ad visable to keep them extensively. . ', Mrs. Outlaw, of Little-Kock. coal oil for iindiiug sUeut tomb.

At the last city election tho ' democrats elected their mayor. This has frightened the "ring." and they are now begginjr tor only one term.

I ' k The Indianapolis Sentinel, in speaking of the election of Governor Booth, of California, and Governor Han ey, of Kansas, to the United States senate by . the legislature of their respective states, says: " Indiana must send a man of the same kind to succeed the partisan whose time expires presently." , The Sentinel is right. Indiana must send a man to the United States senate who will represent .the people in that body. :.:.-..- 6PrjtrrcALissr. '. rFrom the Brownstown Banner ) We can say we believe Mrs. Keigwin to be free from deception and treachery in her mediumistic powers, and if our spiritualists were as gcneroui as they are enthusiastic, they would not hesitate to contribute tho fee required to secure her presence in our town.

From the Owen county Journal. The name of Mr. Hughes East is favorably mentioned in connection with the office of treasurer of state. Mr. East is a citizen of our neighbor countyGreene and has been closely identified with the. interests of the people of this section for manv rears. . He Is a stock dealer and farmer and is spoken of among inat;ciass or our citizens as an honest, upright, capable man. Not an office seeker by habit or inclination, he has been prevailed on to permit the use of his name in connection with the stato -treasurer's cfiice, and should porridge rain in this part of Indiana, we hope Mr. East's plate will be found right side up. His Democracy is above reproach and his character and habits of life are such as should entitle him to the support of the farming community. - COMPLIMENTABV. fFrom the Soymour Times. Mr. Orth has in congress a financial bill, called the "Indiana plan." The Indianapolis Journal, which shapes the legislation of the state and nation, is the father of it. Congress had better go to the New England witch -burners at once for models to follow. Indiana legislation for the last twenty-four years has been nothing: but a villainous and disgusting rehash of the legislation of the witch-burners, which has filled that country with drunkards, with husbandless women, with insane people and idiots, and well nigh depopulated it of native born, well formed and healthy citizens. A THOROUO HBRED BOURBON. fFrom the Ledger-Standard. The Indianapolis Sentinel is anxious that Mr. Pratt, the senator from Indiana, shall be succeeded by a man after the style of Gov. Harvey, of Kansas. Goy. H. declares him self a radical, and the radical papers of Kansas claim that he Is sufficiently radical to suit them. We suppose they know the man and his antecedents. If they do, we desire to take as little stock as possible in that kind of politicians. In fact, we can name a dozen or more good, reliable democrats in Indiana that are honest, capable and faithful, and further than this we are not disposed to look, whatever the hybrid and mongrel politicians may think. ..." i - The Vert OtnEsT Woman.

THE NATIONAL GRANGE.

' ' " . J-r.jiw-. THE BOSTON ORANOB iD!Sr2ABcmET1 P.V. I'ORT ON 'IRAXSl'OHTATION NT CONslPKREl. SHAKING llANDS ALL AI'.OUND. The Chicago Tribune give this report othe last days proceeding of 'the National GranjreatSt. Louis: Tho National' Grat;. has been principally occupied to-day in saving farewell. The report ot tbo committor on , the Boston , Grangj : wa disccsei Rnd adopted last evening, buff n.tnit ted to tho public to-day. Tne,,e.isä has been "prejudged ever since . the ,-deliv ery of Master. Adams' addrW on the firs' day. The action of the Nation! Grange was rather with a view to suramin;? .Adam than on the real merits of the eae, which were not lerg'hily arpuM. Mr. Staple, delegate from Boston, waa tit p.fveni when the committee firt,t con.-idered th? ?ubj-ct. Alii, Master ot Mas-eachu'etts went alono before the commit fee, and submitted tho petitiriTT s: nt yon the other day. Mr. Allis complains th'at his position has been embarraing, Mr. Adams, in his adpres.i, placing Mm In an nttitndo of 'rebellion as regards tha order, n things the question should never hive km up, as ihe eastrrn memliers went info the Grange iu good faith, not suppling they were violating any rulfs of tho Order. Ha loft for honte to-nirht with Mr. Staples. The latter gentleman reached St. Louis last Wednesday nicht, sr;? since that time has fat in all the esMons t'-f iho National Grange. ITa ex prefcies th) opiion that the Uoton Grange matter ought to hare been entirei ignored; and pays that mot of the members of tie National Grance entertain the same view ot tho matter. The grange had coma into the orderin good faith, ar,i though someofthe members had city interests, ncarlv all of them had farms. Mr. Hovey, the seedsman, was a member," and he i directly interested in agriculture. Mr. Staples himself has a firm in the country; so have nearly all the members to whom so much objection has been made. Mr. Staples says, further, that the Bton grain dealers are just as much INTERESTED IN CHEAP TR VNSPOKTATION as the eastern farmers, and it was this that first drew them into the grange. ;Then a 1 - ' nuB ana cry was raised, ana me report was circulated all over the west that a graDge hau been formed in Boston composed only of merchants and grain-dealers. Mr. Adams came cast to attend a horticultural congress, and learning through third parties the way in which the era n go was formed, noteven consulting .with any of the members, came home and revoked the dispensation. Mr. Staples considers his Boston brethren to bave been most unjustly discriminated against, inasmuch as there are hundreds of granges all over the east, and in all the cities and towns of the west, whose -membership is no more directly agricultural than the membership of t he Boston grange. He says that it will probably re-organize and again apply for admission. Thete are Mr. Staples' views, and they deserve to have the same currency eiven the report of the committee He ridicules the idea that he and the few men associated with him ever entertained the idea of running Massachusetts politics. THE REPORT. , The following is the formal report of the committee on the Boston Grange : Your committee to whom w as referred that portion of Worthy Master Adams1 address having reference to tho Boston Grange beg leave to submit the following report:, In order to arrive at a correct conclusion as to alleged irregularities, wo proceeded to ascertain from means at our command testimony in regard to the following quedious: First Had any irregularities been committed ; it so, what were they? Second By whom had those irregularities been committed? Third What remedy shall we propose ? We find from the evidence submitted to us that some time in June, lbl'Z. Woithy Master Adams gave Brother Abbott, of Iowa, a commission as a national deputy, with instructions to organize subordinate granges in Massachusetts. This commission was accompanied by the usual instructions in printed form, a copy of which has been submitted to us, aud we fiud that tha deputies are strictly enjoined by them to admit none into the organization ot a subordinate grange but those who were actually farmers of good character. Some time in August, 173, Brother Abbott did organize a grange in Boston, called the Boston Grange, the members of whicb, so far as we can learn, were not of the class required by the instruqj tions of Brother Abbott. After a careful examination of tho testimony, the only occupations we could fix for this grange were grain-dealers, commission-men. a reporter and editor of a business paper, with only one exception, the present lecturer of a Boston grange, who stated to ns that he is carrying on a farm near Boston ; but his principal income was derived from the business he carried on in the city. And the committee here take occasion to say we bave found it very difficult to obtain positive information as to who were in reality tho first members of this organization, or their occupations, aud this, too, notwithstanding we have had Worthy Master Adams, Secretary Kelley, Lecturer Thompson, W. M. Allis, of the Boston state grange, and Brother Staples, the present lecturer of the Boston Grange, before us. "" We find that on or about September 8, IS73, W. M. Adams went to Boston, in consequonco cf reports which had reached him in regard to this grange, to examine as to their truth, and was so well satisfied that the material of which it was composed was neither such as was contemplated by our order, nor the instructions given to the deputy, that after his return to Washington, and in accordance with the views of two members of the executive committee, the third bein confined to bis bed by sickness, he issued a revocation 01 the dispensation, ritual, Aeand forwarded them to the secretary pf the National Grange at Washington. This revoke was signed by Worthy Master Adams, Worthy Secretary O. II. Kelley, and had the seal of the National Grange attached to It. Worthy Master Adams shortly afterwards recalled the commis sion which brother Abbott held to organize subordinate granges, the revocation to take effect on and after December 1, 187;!. Brother AblnHt subsequently acknowledged the receiptor this letter. The overseer of the Boston Grange wrote to William Adams a remonstrance aalast the demand for the dispensation, books, A.c. We cannot Und that any official notice wa taken by the grang of this demand. They, however, for a time suspended their wtrlc bometime In December the Boston Grange elected new otticejs, and In Jan nary, 1874, the worthy master of the Massachusetts state grange sent one of his depaties to install the officers then elected, and to give the master thereof the annual word for 1S7L Worthy Master Adams has written to WorthyMaster Allis in regard to withholding this word, and it is due to Brother Allis to state that be says he did not receive Worth v Adam's leite - on this subject until after the work was done. We rind that . , THE MASSACHUSETTS STATE GRANGE encouraged and sustained by a rusoluiiou passed at the regular meeting of the Boston Grange in Its acts ot insubordination and resistance of lawful authority, and therefore have rendered themselves liable to censnro by avilotionof their obligation to inculcate strict obedience to the lawtul edicts , and . proper authority. We lind ttiat the action of the Boston Grange in refusing to surrender its dispensation, and submit quietly to tho ruttDgs of our head, until thin meeting of the National (.-trance when they could have npplied lor redress by appeal from the action of Worthy-Master Adams, has been very . demoralizing and Injurious to th interest of our urder throughout the entire West and booth, and the good of the Order imperatively requires that such insubordination and persistent resistence to authority mutt be cheeked.
