THE INDIANA STATE SENTINEL, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 2, 1880.

"WEDNESDAY, JUNE 2.

There are a great many gamblers in tie Republican party, but not one coald be found with microscope or telescope who would bet eyen that the Republican party can carry Indiana for any Republican candi date in 1880 not one. Tve Negro National Republican Commit tee, whatever that may be, baa leaned an ad dress advocating the nomination of Senator Bruce for the Vice Presidency. It is supposed that the demand is t ade to give re spectability to Grant or Blaine. Tte following statistics, relating to the exports of domestic provisions and tallow from the United States tor the month of April, are farni3hei by I. N. "Whiter, acting

Tee recent annual convocation o! the Masonic Grand Lodge of Indiana in this city was one of the moet important, and in many regards the most satisfactory ever beld. The address of Hon. Ballany S. Sutton, Grand Master of the Htate, is regarded as an able paper, meeting every demand and evincing a clear comprehension of every question con nected with the growth and prosperity of the order. There are now in the State 5Ö5 Lodges, with a membership amounting to 23,000. Such an organization, having for its supreme object, benevolence, requires for Its laccesäfal management abilities of the first order, large-heartedness, generous impulses, and nobility of head and heart. The late Grand Master, B. 8. Litton, Esq., Illustrated these qualities in an eminent degree, and es a consequence, the order was never in a more healthful condition. "With Grant for a candidate the Republican party will have no surprises to fear, and no record to defend. Nothing can be said which Is not already known. That man does not live who has lc hU possession a secret which, if revealed, would damage tirant. This is a great thing to be aMe to say of a man before .his nomination. jlobe-Iemocrat. This is about the first instance on record wherein, ts an illustration, a culprit defies public opinion because he had been sentenced to the penitentiary for crimes that tad b s come notorious. Such a rascal has no "surprises to fear" because "nothing could be said cf tim which is not already known." Grant's administrations have been exposed. The world knows all about his debaucheries the thieves he fostered, protected and defendedand since he was not impeached his Impudence is regarded as a virtue. Possibly nothing can "damage Grant," but we submit that because a man is crime-proof he is not therefore the best man for PresiTee Woman's National Suffrage Convention has done ita work and diflbanded. The effect of this movement may be seen in the throwing open to women all avenues to respectable employment. It is within the memory of men yet living when 6he was thought out of place as a teacher in the public schools. Yesterday we had a call from a majestic woman, learned in jurisprudence, and admitted to the practice cf law in the Supreme Court at the National Capital. He takes a great responsibility who eays this advancement degrades her or disrupts society. Presently woman will vote. The strongest prejudices are giving away before her rational and enlightened demands. When she is armed with the ballot, some of the sex will exercise the privilege wisely, some foalishly but she will be elevated. She will be brought to realizs that she is a reasonable creature, in the full possession of a God-given intellect; and when mankind awakens to the fact that woman is no longer an article of property, but that Ehe belongs to herself ia her own for reservation or bestowal the world will be the better for it. REPUBLICANISM. The P.epublican party is just now where it ought to be. It is not only divided, but it is fighting itself biting itself. It is so fall of venom that it la turning upon itself. It is cot pleased with its own rattleB. The head is arrayed against the tail. The great boaconstrictors Blaine, Grant and Sherman are in a deadly straggle. Grant is for the Empire; Blaine is for railroad cubBidies and corruptions generally, and Sherman, trusting to Federal patronage, Is, as ever, for making money by syndicates and the National Backs, Grant is reticent, Blaine is blatent, 'Bhermaa Is methodical. An Bteal, accept bribes, and indulge in Republican cussedness to gain their ends. Grant debauched every department of the Government. He was the friend of thieves. Me accepted all sorts of bribes, from a bull pup to a palace. Blaine sold his votes and Influence to put money in his pocket, while Sherman putting himself cn rajqwt with Louisiana liars and perjurers, beetle-browed villains, bartered Federal offices for perjuries. Hayes paid the contract price, and put Sherman at the head of the Treasury, and the amount of money he has made by it will be known only when the matter is thoroughly investigated. Roecoe Conkling, the man whom Calico Sprague taught the Rhode Island quickstep, by which he; made his escape from Narragansatt Pier, rules New York. Don Cameron, whose old father Is now fighting the Widow Oliver, inherited he right to rule the Republican clans of Pennsylvania, and Cotswold Lion Logan, whose military record is as black as his hide, are trying to bulldoze the Republican party into the support of the third term heresy; and, strange to say, are making considerable headway. As a result, the tail of the Republican party rattles while the bead bites. We like the spectacle exceedingly. When onehalf of the Republican party seeks to destroy the other half it ia j mir to conclude -that both halves will be pretty thoroughly used up in the melee, so that nothing will remain at all formidable to the public welfare, The Cincinnati Com

mercial seys 'The Third Termers are not capable of reason. Ihey want to use a great military name to set up a Boss Government, in which we should have vulgar imitations of royal state Presidential four-in-hands; houses built for the Senators by the States; back pay grabs; salaries doubled; money poured out in jobbing schemes in all sections; whisky ringsters elevated to an aristocracy; street paving plunderers given the deepest assurances of Executive favor; Boss Tweedism made National and self-perpetuating. The purposes of these gamesters are not obscure. They are well understood in Ohio, and we say to the bosses who have been bred in the shoddy politics of the war, that if they do succeed in degrading the Republican party to submission, they will hear their doom announced by this State on the second Tuesday of October next and don't forget it" There is no mistaking the significance of such political literature as the Commercial lets loose upon third-term Republicans, but, strange to say, when these anti-third term Republicans bring forward Blaine, Sherman or Edmunds, the third-termers point to the records, and show pretty conclusively that Grant, with all of his debaucheries, is their superior. B such processes the wrong is sometimes made to defeat the wrong, crime to expose crime, as is the case when one criminal turns upon his confederates and permits jutice tobe done. The Republican party has succeeded in accumulating more infamy than any other party that ever existed. It stands forth as a colossal lie. Its deformities defy caricature. It is a monstrosity that challenges classification an agglomeration of isms and hates. Its miseicn has been to blight and to blast all things of good report. It is now engaged in a deadly strife with itself. The country contemplates the internecine fight with entire composure. Let it go on.

CINCINNATI AND CHICAGO. Every day intensifies the anxiety of the American people with regard to the action of the two Rreat political parlies now preparing for tte most notable political campaign in the history of the country. We do not refer to the bitterness that may be engendered In this instance; we mate no allusion to the tactics that may be employed. We refer rather to the platforms, the policies and the measures that will form the bjsis of the strangle for supremacy in American affairs. The demand for cool-beaded, patriotic cir cumspect deliberation was never more exacting than it will be during the coming campaign. If all foresbado wings of events are cot the merest fiction, then the people may now, as well as at a later date, make up their minds with a large degree of certainty as to what measures will be enunciated at Cincinnati and Chicago for their consideration and actionAt Chicago third termism will be indorsed, and Grant will be its embodiment and expo, nont, The Independent Republicans of Michigan, as well as of other States, declare that Grant "for a third term will be contrary to a long established precedent, justly deemed a most important bulwark of Amercan liberty," and that Grant's "administra tion of the Government while President was subject to tcandals which the people are un willing to see repeatsd." But third-termiem has now been thoroughly discussed before the American people, and still Grant and thirdtermers lead, and the admission is generally made by those in a position to know whereof they epeak.that the Chicago Convention will nominate Grant, and thereby Indorse the heresy. The Michigan Republicans do not hesitate to tay that Grant's nomination "will impair, if it does not destroy, all hop of Republican success." But third-term-ism is sot the only infamy that will be indorsed at Chicago. The Republican Convention will Indorse and the party will defend the montrous proposition of having troops at the polls, to overawe American citizens, when exercising the right of suffrage. It is a favorite idea of the Republican party. Coupled with third-termism, it brirgi the Empire centralizition and the destruction of the Republic into the boldest prominence. The P.epnblicans who profess to eee great danger Ina third-term, advocate stationing troops at the poll;, and of clothing Deputy Marshals with power to arrest American citizjns without warrant, and of imprisoning them without trial when seeking to exercise the right of suffrage. In dis cussing the danger of having troops at the polls to overawe voters, Hon. Tom Ewlng, in a recent speech in the House of Rspresantativts, said: To chow that that Jealousy of the use of troops at the polls baa not died out in the British heart, I mention, Mr. Speaker, that at the late exciting elections in Great Britain, although they occurred at the time of the annual drills, orders were Issued that the militia should not convene until after the elections were entirely over. Is the reason of this Jealousy of the use of troops at the polls any lees strong as applied to as and our Institutions than to those of Great Britain? Not at all. The law-the people's collected will is made and declared by the people's representatives. King and Presiden. alike must bow to it. But if the executive int terfere with and control the election of legislators "Vie becomes at once the maaer of the laws and the master of the people. Hence it has always been an axiom In politics that free government can only be' preserved against executive power by utterly and resolutely forbidding the slightest display of such power at the polling places when the peopia are choosing their representatives. Mr. Speaker, we Americans have even greater reasons than the British to forbid the presence of troops at the polls. They have an executive for life, with succession of b'ood, and the sovereign can have no motive to control parliamentary ejection, other than a desire to carry out some policy of administration. Eut wim us, as members of Congress are chosen in almost all the Btates on the same day, at the same ballot-box, and on the same ticket with the Presidential electors, not only has the President a motive to interfere In the desire to carry out a favorite policy, bot he has a stronger and more propelling motive In the desire to re-elect himself. Some gentleman on the other side said In this debate that we should not impute to Mr. Hayes that he would ose the army wrongfully. Sir, if George Washington were President he should not have, as I am sure he weuld not exercise, the power to use troops at the polls. Possibly the present executive would not pu1 the army to such base uses: but you know our next President might not besuch a goodygoody as Mr. Hayes ts. He might be a man of ordinary flesh and blood of ordinary ambition and willfulness. Patrick Henry warned his countrymen a century ago that "there

never was an age or country where the right

and liberties of the people were placed on the sole chance of their rulers being good men without a consequent loss of liberty." My friend Mr.McCold, of Iowa, said in this debate that "American troops at American polls, to protect American citizens, have no alarms for me." And another gentleman, I think it was my friend from New Jersey (Mr, Robeson), aald that "American bayonets think." However much It may think, the bayonet, whether carried by Christian or Turk, Russian serf or American freeman, obey. Bid the bayonet obey less because it thought, when the Republican soldier, Colonel Sumner, dispersed the free Ftate Legislature In Kansas, or when Ie Trobrland dispersed the Legislature of Louisiana, or when Roger prevented the Legislature of bouth Carolina from assembling? No, no, Mr. Speaker, the spirit of obedience, which la enseutUl to any discipline, makes the soldier, like his musket, a mere Instrument in the hands of whomso ever has supreme command. Mr. Speaker, as I sat listening for two days to the speeches on the Republican side of the House, and noticed the eiigerness of one and all to vindicate the act of C jngress which sanc tions the use of tiocps at the polls, I question ed whether the love of liberty Is not decaying in our midst. How can that sentiment exist, and what is it worth, if we are willing to aee every safeguard of liberty destroyed? The dread of the use of troops at elections was rooted in the hearts of our forefathers ere they touched the sands of Jamestown or the rock of Plymouth. Interference with elections was one of the charges which cost Richard II. his crown. An act to prohibit sucli executive nterference was passed in the reign of Edward I. 500 years ago. In I'll, at an election for a mem ber of Parliament for the borough of West minster, three magistrates of the city, apprehending a riot, sent for a detachment of soldiers and had tbera stationed near the polls in St. raul's church-yard, Covent Garden. It was not claimed or pretended that the troops were brought to or In sight of the polls, or that their presence in the neighborhood had the slightest effect on the elections; but Parliament, then being in session, at oace declared the election void; and further declared "that the presence of regular band of armed soldiers at an election of members to serve in Parliament Is a hi?h infringement of the lib erties of the subject, a manifest violation of the freedom of elections, and an open defiance of the Constitution and laws of the Kingdom." The Houee also brouRbt to Its bar the three magistrates who scut for the troop?, and compelled them on their knees to beg pardon for their oßense against the rcajeMy of British law. In his lofty and eloquent rebuke of the magistrates, tte Speaker of the House of Comix ons, Mr. Arthur Onslow, said: "77ii country i. frrr liccfime thi Hon f. r, vh ich thi. üoiiw can never be but frm t the frcctloiit of cUcliiin Ui it!" At Cincinnati the Democratic party, in becoming terms, will denounce third termism, the policy of having troops at the polls, partisan Deputy Marshals for nefarious purposes, and every other blighting enrsa that the Republican party baa formulated and advocated since it Las bad existence. The Democratic party will seek to strengthen the bond of union, and. the tdoptlon of such mcasurep, and the enforcement of such a policy as will perpetuate tie Republic with all its sacred guarantees of liberty. CLIPPINGS. It is now said that almost the entire delegation from Virginia to the Cincinnati Convention is in favor ot the nomination of Senator Bayard. Ti'K ntteburg Post says: "It was quite unnecessary for General Grant to authorize a country editor to Kay that he had not withdrawn. Nobody ever dreamed of his declin ing, resigning, or withdrawing." Commenting on Senator David Davis letter, the Montgomery (Ala.) Advertiser says: "In the hands of such a statesman and patriot as David Davis as Ch'.ef Executive of the Repub lic, the liberties of the people and an honest, economical and cons'.itutioual administration of the Government would be assured." The Pittsburg Post thinks it nothing strange that Mr. and Mrs. Hayes have slept in George Washington's bed at Mount Vernon, for Lincoln, Buchanan and several others have done the same thing. But Mr. and Mrs. Hayes have been sleeping in Samuel J. Tilden'sbed at the White House for some three years. That Is something nobody else has done. "Gath" is authority for the statement that Hon. John J. Patterson, ex-Senator from Bouth Carolina, tays he told Blaine several months ego that his only chance ot getting the Pennsj Ivanla vote was not to antagonize the Camerons; and perhaps, if Grant was not available, they would voluntarily come to his support. "From the moment Blaine undertook to undermine the Camerons," says Mr. Patterson, "his cause wai lost in Pennsylvania." The Boston Herald says: "Carl Fchurr's Indian policy 1 very simple, but it will be hard work to get an administration to carry it out for four successive years. He saya there are three things to be done 'First, to keep good faith with the Indians, so that they may learn to trust us; second, to educate their young, and, third, to settle them upon lands In severalty, seeming them by as good titles as those of white men.' If the Iudlan wn a auper In Hlndoostan or Zulaland, he might expect some consideration from us; but Mr. Schurz will never live to see this Nation keeping faith with red men who own lands we want and are strong enough to steal."

HON. SAMUEL . FEKKLNS.

A Fitting Tribute to the Memory of the Dead Judge. Full Tixt cf the Memorial Adopted by the State Bar Association. Before calling of the docket, Wednesday morning, the Supreme Court took action on the death of Jude Perkins. A large number of the members of the legal profession, from different parts cf the State, were present. The memorial adopted by the Bar Association, at a meeting held shortly after th death of Judga Perkins, was presented to the Court by Napoleon B. Taylor, Ejq , of the Indianapolis bar, to whom that duty had been assigned. Its presentation was prefaced with the following remarks by Mr. Taylor: May it Please Your Honors: To be able to speak with candor. In terms of praise of a professioual brother, gives pleasure. The worthy member of the legal profusion, without exception, while in liie commands tbe blithest respect and fullest conn Jenes, and generally shares In the rewards that are due to arid bestowed upon the meritorious, In evry calling. When such a one has passed from his labors to that rest which awaits us all. it has been a custom, loug established and sacredly observed, to make a public declaration ot the esteem In which he was held by his professional brethren, and to place upon the records of the Courts a memorial of hi merit and sesvices that may be as lustiug as those records themselves. Ths custom is not peculiar to our profession of the law, but is largely practict-d by those who follow oilier pursuits and form divisions of the grand army of laborers in the interest and advancement of humanity and of human aflalrs. With us it Is esteemed a duty not only, but a debt also, due the memory of the departed, and a solace to bis surviving family and filends as well as a sharp incentive to noble emulation aed Jofty endeavor on tho part of those of bis professional brethern who survive, and to such as afterward engage in the stndv and practice of the law, to cheer theru la the arduous work with the hope that they, too, may win like honor and reuown, and, at the end, the end, tne name recorded and durable mention. it bus bten tbe fortune of but o;ie member of our profession In ;thls ; State to attain and hold, for tuch a length of time, so high rank In her Judiciary km Hon. Kimuc-1 E Perkins. TliatOi.e was lion. Iaac Blacklord, ho lor more that thirty-five yearn, continuous v. filled a seat upon the bench of this Court : and. , tnt-r ins retirement irora it, was, in tue year i--i, coiiimii-sioiit u odo oi me judges oi the United Slates Court of Claims, at the cityot Washington, and died thre, on the 8It dv oi Decern her, ISii), while holding thut oJfic. Ou tho 21st day of January, in the year 1S1(, Samuel K. i'erkins waa appointed by Hon. James Whitcomb, who was th-n Governor of t ins state, a Jmigoof this Court, to succeed Hon. Jeremiah Sullivan, whose term of offic hsd expired. Governor Whitcomb was a lawver of hlah standing in his profession, and Judge Sullivan whs re it -ii ded as a nnu of ppotless intecrlty, and esteemed ono of the ablest Jurists in the Common wealth. The npi oiDiinent. thc-re-foie, of Mr. I'erkins to suceted Judge Builiyan i was looreu upon as n very nigh compliment' This appointment reached lo tho end or th next General At-seinbJy, and on the dav of January, In the year Ii7, Judge PerklLS was appointed and commissioned a Judge of this Court lor the term or seven vears, from the end of the General Assembly then In session. The Constitution of 1S1C was in force at that time, and, by its provisions, the Jutfaes of this Court weie uppointcd by the Governor, by aDd with the advles and consent of the Senate, and tho full term of their appointment was one year longer than it is under our present ConstHut cn. lU-fote tlia expiration of this term of seven years, for whh i' he had been appointed, the Constitution of 1S52 (our present Constitution) was adopted nnd went into lorce. This Constitution changed the zrode of selecting Judges. It Introduced the system of choosing them by popuiar vote, and under its provisions an election for Judges of this Court was held on the trr-elfth day of October of that year, and Juda i'erkins, who had received the nomination of the Democratic party over Hon. Isaac B!acFford, was elected for the full term or six years. At the State election, on the 12th day of Oc tober, In the year 1S58, Judgs Perkins, who had again received the nomination of his party for this high, omce, was re-elected lor the further term 01 six years. This term expired on the 3rd day of Jannary, lSäö, and Judge Perkins, who was defeated with his party t the general election in October, istll, 1 etlred from the bench and resumed the practice of the law in the city of Indianapolis, and continued in the practice until tho 21th day of August in th year 1S72, when bo was appointed by Ills Excellency, Conrad Baker, the then Governor of tblsState, to succeed Hon. Frederick ILud, who bad repl?ned, on the beech of the Superior Court of Marion County. Jndn9 Perkins accepted this appoinlment, and, at the State electiou in the ensuing October, he was elected, without opposition, for a full term of four years. This highly honorable, and, Irring that time, very laborious position, w filled by Judge Perkins until the close of Ihe year 1870, and on tne 3d. day of January, 1877, fie passed to th Bench of this Court, to wn ich he hnd been elected at the State election in tbe month of October, 1ST, where he continued to serve until the date of his death-the 17th day of December, 1879. His service as a Judge cf this Court was continuous from the 2ht day of January, 1S46, to the 3d day of January, I6t5, lacking a few days ODly of nineteen years, and which added to his last service, wanted but a small fraction of twenty-two years; and if he had lived until the end of the term for which he was last elected, and a part of which he bad served, would have covered near the lull fourth of a century. Although the period of Judge Perkins' service, as a J udre of this Court, was eiceeded in length by that of Judge Blackford, vet. in the maiked changes, and in tlia Ktranimpnd stir. I rioz events which took place and followed each other in quick buccesMon, and in the new, important and olflicuit questions that came up to bo examined and passed upon.lt far surpassed, in interest and importance, that comprised in the term of Judge Blackford. Or the industry which distinguished Judge Perkins' career on the benca, and the ability displayed by birn in the discharge of his high trust, during n'.l this lime, it is not necessary for me to speak. The opluloDs prepared and delivered by him, contained in thirty-nine volumes of our State reports, which aie fa miliar to Your Honors and to tbe members of the legal profession in this State, are sutticieut evidence ot that labor, research and talent. Bat the memorial which I hold In ray hand, lo be presented to this Court, speaks of these matters, and of all others attecting bis relations in life necessary to be inentioued or referred to In this presentation. In words forcible, distinct and impartial, and which become tb occasion. He was blessed with length of days. The days of the years of his life reached almost the allotted time ot threescore years and ten; and hi labors continued until near tbe end. It can hardly be deemed exaggeration for me to siy that he fell like a soldier died at blspot crowned with the honors of his profession, and holding at the t'me its highest trust In the State. At a meeting of the Bar Association of the city of Indianapolis, culled after bis death, which was beld in tbe Court House on the lth day of December, In the year lsry, and participated In by the members of the bar of this State then In that city, this memorial was adopted. By a resolution passed at that meeting, it was made ray duty to present this memorial to this Court, and to ask that it be spread upon ita records, which 1 now do. with tne wish that those records and this memorial may be as lasting as the ases. Tbe memorial referred to in the foregoing remarks, and preeented to the Court, is in these words: Again, in the history of the State, death haa entered the Supreme Court and made vacant a seat upnn Its beuch. The late Chief Justice Is dead. We meet to do suitable honor to the name and memory, and mourn the death of Judge Perkins. His eminent success is an encouragement, his death an admonition. Endowed with strong and active faculties, he pursued the purposes of bis life with fortitude and determination, and at the close of bis career he stood among the distinguished or a frofession in which distinction must be merle cl to be achieved. He was successful In life, and attained exalted .position and enjoyed the admiration and approval cf his countrymen, not only because of his excellent natural endowments, but also because his faculties were cultivated and developed by diligent labor, and beautified by extensive and useful learning, and also be

cause his motives were pure and hU conduct upright. In tbi w have a lewvn and an encouragement. The people gave him high honor and made It as ecdurlr g as the laws and the recjrds of the State. His name Is foivr Interwoven in oar Judicial history. So long as society hall remain organized under tbe government Of law will the student ot laws consult his opinions and decisions. Through coming generations will bis learning and laoor lnmueuce both the legislator and tbe judge, lie was an able and a faithful Judge, and brought honor on our profession. We will cherish his memory. In his death we are adraonlshed that no earthly distinction can defeat or postpone tbe "inevitable hour." "The paths of glory lead but to the grave." To his lamlly and kindred we extend our sympathy. J udee Biddle, on behalf of the Court, made the folic-wing response: We, members of this Bench, are in full sympathy with the memorial of the Br, and the more intimate Irlends, in mourning for the dead. He has gone, but his works remain. No one has done more or did it better than the deceased. He came to the Bench early, and remained late. Death found bini entoying the highest honors. Judge Perkins occupied this Bench dunug that interesting transitory period while the mode of administering J untie was passing from the common law practice to the present code ot procedure, and by bit ability.

Whatever difference of opinion among patriots there might have been then, that the cours9 of Jade Perkins was feaness. independent and upright is not now doubted by any. His name deserves to live while constitutional liberty is secure: while equal laws are respected; while the administration of Justice is honored, and as long as the homage of the living is due to tbe worth of the dead. uur lut-iuuiiai huau oe written amonest the records of this Court at the close of the"iabors of the deceased to bear ierp-tual testimony of the esteem and honor iu which he id held by tbe members or the bench and bar who survive him, and who knew him so long and so well. The remarks of the speaker and the response of the Court were listened to with marked attention by those present, and all seemed impressed with the solemnity of the occasion. Parsonages Subject to Taxation. Auditor Maneon Thursday submitted the following opinion in answer to a communication : N. Dunule, Esq., Auditor Carroll County: Dear Sir In your communication of the 2Mb lust, you submit the following questions, askirgau answer: 1. Is a parsonage taxable when built on same lot that church stands upon, the same beicg owned and used only for a church parsonsge? ?. Are buildings and lots belonging to benevolent Institutions, where the third and lourtn floors are used lor lodge purposes, taxable? In answer to the first question, I will say that lam of the opinion, under the decision of our Supreme Court, that parsonages are taxable. (!-ke ihlrty-eishtb Indiana Iteporis, page 31.) In answer to the second question, I am of the opinion that all of that, part of the building not used tor lodg purposes proper is taxaole. (See So Ind., rge 51.) Very IU specif ally Yours, M. D. MANsojV, Auditor of State. Etat Fair. The Executive Committee of the Board of Agriculture, composed of Messrs Bagan, Mutz, Barnesand ilerideth, met Wednesday and dispesed of considerable miscellaneous business la connection with the coming State Fair. A new lithograph poster was adopted and ordered, ; and all the necessary printing arranged for. The exhibit of grain at the Miller's International Exhibition at Cincinnati received proper attention and encouragement ta insure a success. The cumber of camples received up to this lime is not equal to expectation, a1 though a number have been promised on solicitation. The time now is quite limited, as ths exhltion will open on next Monday. The General Superintendent was directed to provide seats for the Exposition Baildirjg, and rent the same for entertainments. Why They Want Grant Nominated. T Boston Post.l . Different people have different reasons for supporting Grant for the Presidency. They support him because he was a successful General; because he wanted to annex San Domingo; because Charles Sumner stood in his way, and be tried to crush him; because Carl Schurz stood in bis way, and be tried tocru&hhim; because Jacob D. Cox believed in practicing what Grant preached, and be tried to crush him; because B. H. Bristow tried to crash the whisky ncg and Grant tried to crush him; because Grant resented every blow at the whisky rlDg as a blow at himself; because Grant looked out for his friends always at the public expense; because Grant stands by his friends, right or wrong, especially when they are wrims:; because Grant appointed Belknap and and Belknap sold post-traderships, and Grant saved him from impeachment; because, when Richardson resigned the Treasury portfolio in disgrace, Grant appointed him to a judgeship; because Grant never refused a preeent, and hardly ever failed to pay for it from tho public crib; because Grant has been entertained by kitgi, and we must entertain kiDga and their progeny to pay for it; because Grant's eight years' failure needs four a years' opportunity for redemption; because in addition to his own bad government he has teen bad government in foreign lands. These are the reasons why some men are shrieking for 1 Grant to come and reign over them. There are also a very few noble minded and patriotic men who support Grant's candidacy simply because they believe him to be the greatest and the purest statesman of tbe age. These few never hanker for the spo'lsof office; they are American citizens who place country above party or self aggrandizement; men witk whom the example and precapts of Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Mocrje and Jackson are of greater force than party feeling. Some of them are New Engländers, notably Nathaniel P. Banks, George S. Boutwell, Alexander IL Bice. General Walter Uaniman, and ex Senator Pattersm. 'Bill" Chandler. Here Is a picture of "Bill" Chandler, who is handling Blaine's chances at Chicago: He Is one of the brainiest of tbe delegates; His mind Is one of tne most fertile in devising expedients. He conducted the entire Republican proceedings in Florida when tbe State was captured for Hayes. He Is a small man, with dusty, stilt' brown hair, combed up high irom his sallow forehead, and then straight down over his enormous ears. His squirrelblack eyes are partly bid behind huge, olackrimtned eye-giasses. His huge, flaring nose stands out in bold prominence on hisbatcbetshaped face, that fails away into a shortcropped bean! and mustache. Anything that a bold, unscrupulous mind, gifted loa point of genius in all forms of political chicanery, can do will be surely done by Chandler. What is better, whatever he does he will hardly comprooalse himself or his aide. The Convention. (Globe-Democrat . Tbe proceedings ot the Illinois Convention at Springfield yesterday bore out the fullest expectations of the friends of General Grant, and at the ssme time left his ' enemies without the slightest cause for complaint. The Cook County quarrel was settled on an equiUble basis each aide being allowed ita fair share of delegates, and all agreeing to be bound by the action o! the Convention. A resolution declaring General Grant the Presidential' choice of the Republicans of Illinois was adopted by a majority of 79, amid the wild est enthusiasm. . v ..V "A faithful assistant." This is what the nurses term Dr. Bull's Baby Syrup. It Is the best assistant as it will preyent a "Crying Spell" of the baby.

"To cure a chronic or long-standing disease la truly a victory in the healing art; thai reasoning power that clearly discerns defect and supplies a remedy; that restores step by step by degrees the body which has been slowly attacked and weakened by an insidious disease, not only commands our respect but deserves our gratitude. Dr. Radway has furnished mankind with that wonderful remedy,' Radway's Sarsaparllilan Resolvent, which accomplishes this result, and suffering humanity, who drag out an existence of pain and disease, through long days and long nights, owe him their gratitude." iiedlcal Messenger.
