WE ate pleased to state that the difficulties between the Liberal Republicans and the Democrats cf Cincinnati have ‘been amicably adjusted and that both ele ‘ments are now united upon one municipal ticket. The difficulty arose out of the perverscness of some Hunker Democrats and the arrogance ot certain impracticable Liberals—two clasees of politicians that aré eminently qualified to occupy back seats in the synagogue. . -

Tue case of Adam Earl, who acknow! edged in public print that he paid four or five thousand dollars to secure an early and favorable decision on & certain rail. road case, by the Supreme Court of Indiana, and who, together with several other parties, were cited before that tri’ bunal for purposes of investigation, was disposed of Wednesday of last week.— The evidence then and there submitted by Earl et. al. fully excnerates the several Judges of our Supreme Court from being improperly influenced in rendeting their decision, !

. What For? . We are at a loss to know why the Lig onier BANNER gade the remark it did in its last issue in reference to our condem - nation of the late ‘“congressional steal.” ,The course of this paper, while it has, at all timeg differed with the sheet spoken of, has not been of that character, as to lead to the inference that it was not al ways on the side of right, as we understood it. In other words, we hope always to be in that condition that we can condemn a wrong, no matter whom it may affect ? Can the Banner say as much ?— Warsaw Indianian. falles |

Well, yes; we think it entirely safe to say that we can. And the proof is at hand, also. For instance: We; did not vote for nor support Billy Williams, who voted for the big steal, while the Indianian was bis enthusiastic supporter. The editor of that sheet had ample knowledge of Billy’s propeneities for plunder, yet he was unsparingly vindictive in his denunciation of General Hascall, who had the independence and pluck to say before the public'what the editor of the Indianian knew in his heart to be true with regard to Billy. Again: The competitor of this same “thief” Billy Williams (as he is now called) in the contest of last year, was the Hon. M. C. Kerr, an honest, faithful and _industrious servant of the people. The : incorruptibility of this able man was well understood by the Indianian, but nota word of praise for his untiring efforts in behalf of the people has ever appeared in the columns of that sheet, and his defeat’ . wag labored for with all the zeal that its editor covld command., - The Indianian need not for a moment suppose that we were actuated, in making ~ the observations to which reference is made, by a desire to disparage its vigorous blows at the congressional plunderers; ~far from it. We are gratified to notice a disposition on the part of its editor to denounce fraud at the risk ot hurting the “feelings” of & political associate, That is the point we desired him to reach long sgo; and thongh he comes straggling along rather late in the day, we extend to

' OFFICIAL STEALING. ; The rottenness in'high places is being shown up every few days by our leading papers in such a way as/almost to make one despair of ever seeing an honest man elected, or if elected, to see him escape the taint of the ever-increasing looseness of principle evinced in our officials. A’ man can be elected to the Presidency with the best knowledge of its salary and per - | quisites and take, without a qualm of con science, double that amount. He consid~ers himself, in his inaugural, justified in all his acts by his re-election, and, taking this as a starting point, we have not yet geen all that we shall'see. , The men who voted him-the increase of salary, voted themselves an increase by means that would have shamed almost any other set of men on the face of the earth. The worst feature of it all is, that men: who voted against the steal conceive they have a right to take the money, now that it has been voted to them. The hardearned money of the people, given without a grudge to pay the debt of their beloved country, is squandered by the very ones who were elected to be its conservators. The wildest claims of the late campaign, as to corription, have been more than met by subsequent disclosures, and these suggest that “the half has not been | t01d.,” : : :

No wonder that the cry of reform rang through, the country. What is most shameful, is the fact that some of those even who joined in the cry are not above suspicion, Our larger city governments are not a whit behind the general government in this respect. State Legislatures follow the example in higher quarters, or anticipate it. The contagion spreads even to the lowest office in the gift of the people. Custom is, to many, the law, the unwritten law, and it is made to override all sense of right and wrong. - If we are to have reform, those who march under its banner must show that the cry comes not from the lips alone; that there is & determination, deep down in the beart, to bring back our country to the sense which pervaded the fathers 'at Valley Forge, and which was express. ed in all the writings of our venerated Washington. .We can make no progress as reformers if, when we have the power, we “make the promise to the ear and break it to the hope.” We must not have it said of ws, “Thou which teachest another, teachest thou not -thyself? thou that preachest a man should not steal, dost thou steal ? thou that makest: the boast of the law (of reform), through breuking the law dishonerest thou” thy profession ? It is in little things, in the smaller places, we fear, where corruption began its festering course and spread itself thro’ the body politic until the whole has become one leprous mass together, No stream can rise higher than its fountain head, and if the fountain be poisoned, what use to go down the course and strive to purge and purity the waters there ? The party of reform must go back, to prove their sincerity, to the Jeffersonian rule in examining cindidates for place and power—*ls he honest ?”—and it may be well to add in these perilous times “in little things.” It is only thus that the party of reform can lay any claim to the title, it must prove its faith by its works, The people will not be always blinded by profession when not followed up by prac. flee T LIBERAL.

Cheaper Transportation. We are pleased to record the fact that the U. 8. Senate, just before its adjourn~ ment, unanimously adopted ths resolution introduced by Mr.Windom, of Minnesota, of which mention was made in the BANNER of last weck. The resolution reads as follows : Resolved, That the select committee on transportation routes to the seaboard be authorized to sit at such places as they may designate during the recess, and to investigate and report upon the subject of transportation between the interior and the seaboard ; that they have power to employ a clerk and stenographer, and to send for persons and papers, and that fhe actual and necessary exjenses attending such investigations be paid out of the contingent fund of the Senate upon vouchers approved by the Chairman of said committee. i ! Before its adoption, Mr. Windem ex: plained the objects and purposes of the resolution. He asserted that it was an admitted fact that the present facilities for the interchange of products and commodities between the interior and the seaboard are'totally inadequate. Bitter complaints of extortion and oppression come from all parts of the country. The channels of cominerce are controlled by powerful monopolies which dictate their own terms to the people. The burdens they impose upon the consumer and producer are too grievous to be long endured. © While millions of bushels of corn and wheat are rotting in the fields of the West, thousands of people at the East are suffering for want of cheap bresd. The demeand of the people for redress can neither be evaded nor denied. To the great central portions of the republic the question has become of vital importance. With the farmer who sees the product of his summer’s toil consumed to warm his dwelling in the winter because it costs more than it will bring to transport it to’ market, this question overshadows all others. Party lines and party platforms sink into insignificance in the face of questions involving the right to live.— Congress will be compelled at an ecarly day to act on this subject,

THE appointment and éonﬁ;x—nation of Nicßvlas Filbeck as postmaster of Terre Haute will somewhat take the wind out the sails of the Ligonier BANNER, whose editor seemed to rejoice with exceeding great joy at Mr. Filbeck’s supposed failure. We congratulate Mr. Filbeck, and sympathize with the BANKER. — COrawfords} ville Journal,. e Now, Tom Benton, that’s just the way you allow yourself to be fooled. We penned that article in Nic's interest, con. fident that the advance copy sent to Pres. ident Grant would cause a -change in Nie's favor. And that little strategy of ours is just what saved his bacon. Do you see it, Tom ?

i The Assessment. ' Lma, March 17th. | . M=. Epitor:—ln all the views and constructions of the new assessment law that I have seen published, the most important item, in my mind, has been én tirely omitted,.viz: : that the law 1s for the whole State, not what one farm or a bundred farms would bring.at a fair, luntary sale, ‘but what all the real and Egrsonal property in ‘the State would bring at a fair, voluntary. sale between the first of April and the first of June. This i#'the only legitimate conclusion we can draw from the law, and when all ic ‘assessed at market value at once, oa this basig, the difference between the whole and Isolated estimates, would materially change the estimated value, and probably bring it full as low 'as former assessments.
