INFLATIONISTS ABSURDITIES. | ~ The official report of Comptroller Knox sets forth that since the passage of the specie resumption act of last January, tlie amount of reduetion in tlie volume of greenbacks has ‘been $6,228,420, and that against this reduction there has been an increase in thevolume of the bank note circulation of $1,185,525; or in other words there has, in that time, been a net ‘increase in our paper money of 75?1,557,105.'—'— This, says the Fort Wayne Sentinel,is a result of the dreadfual policy of coftraction adopted by the republican congress of which the Ohio democrats complain so bitterly, and which eventually is to paralyze every industry in’ the land. This c(mtradicvti(‘)n of terms, this calling expansion by the name of contraction, is the capital of ‘those inflationists who have made Such egregious asses of themselves, Itis true that since June 1874, the banks'in the country have involuntarily surrendered $15,000,000 of their circulation and by that much, less the . increase ‘mentioned. above, has there been a contraction of the currency of the natiop, but this reduction was not at, all “compulsory: It was the voluntary act of the banks themselves and was _indeed m_l " over accumulation = of \ bank notes which could not be used.

DEATH OF THOMAS B, FLORENCE. Hon. Thomas B. Florence died. in Washington last Saturday night-of an illness ‘lasting something- more- than one year.

For nine years he was Secretary of the Comptrollers ot the i’ub,.lic Schools of Pennsylvania.— In 1850 he was elected to Congress from;Philadelphid, and s‘ei‘\jed continuquslyr until 1859, actingias a member of the committees on Naval. Affairs and Invalid Pensions. .

Mr. Florence was not a man of-gi'ea-t‘»abil»ity; but he was a very practical legislator and a useful'public servant. Ie was generous, kind-hearted antl liberal to a fault. We knew him intimately and well. ITe.was somewhat eccentric in his'ways, and often espoused measures that.astonished his friends. ~ He manifested a total disregard for consisten: ey, “bat everybody had such a liking for “Tom Florence, the widows’ and orphansf -'fl'iend,"’ that no one ever felt like censuring him for his vagaries.— May he rest in peace.: B R

ALBION LOCAL. Ml e T OUR FOURTH. & @ Tearing that there would not be enough to go around, we of the county seat took our share of the glorious Fourth on the third, and it tasted just as good. The morning was welcomed ‘with bells and horns and booming anwils, much to the’ annoyance of those who love to hug their pillows in the early. morning hours. The day was threatening throughout, and occasionally a. shower enlivened the enjoy‘ments of the day. There were probably 3,000 people in town, and it has convinced ourfolks that we can get up just as good a fourth of July as any other town in the county. At the appointed hour the people, flocked to the Court _House which was soon packed full.— } Nelson Prentiss, Esq., the President of the day, called the audience to order, after which the Rev. William Bo‘nar, chaplain o:mﬁ%ﬁered up an _appropriate prayer, followed by James ‘M. Denny, Esq., who read the Declara‘tion of Independence. 5. E. Alvord, ' Esq., was then introduced as the ora“tor of the day and delivered a fine ad- ' dress, replete with eloquence and beauty.. Alvord’s oration, by unanimous request of ;he'audiencé, will be published, as it ought to be, for no finer effqrt was .ever made in Albion on such an occasion. - The. dinner, under the auspices of the Preésbyterian - Church, was a grand success. Every- _ tlniijg was cleaned up in the sl}'ape of eatables, and I have no doubt that a very. handsoma gum of money was I‘(_3-' alized. ’mo had charge of the dinner deserve alk\possible praise for the efficiency and vim with which they all went to work and kept at it until long after dark. To. mention names would bé invidious, wheres all 'did so admirably; and’all who partook of their tables had but the one aceount to relate of these glorious wé- | men of ours. Tired and jaded, deprived of enjoying the day as the rest of us did, they had the satisfaction that night, as they laid their weary bodies on restful beds, to know that they had done their duty fully, nobly and satisfactorily. In the afternoon the Fantastics came into town under lead of T. M. Eells, and a sorrier set of ragamuffins it would be hard to scare up. "Fal,staff, as he’mu_stered his “tattered prodigals™ near Coventry, ‘could not have shown such a motley muster of odds and ends. The march of these mounted monsters created the wildest ‘merriment and laughter. Never -has Albidon- witnessed such a procession through- its streets; and so admirable was_the whole incongruous, outlandish- Yahoo make-up :that it was .imnpossible not to grin and roar with laughter. Some vehicles which might have been made before the flood, and 'some old jacks and crowbaits that no doubt came out of: the ark, added a happy variety to the motley make up of the procession. Mrs. 'Til'tion, and Mr. Beecher received an honorable place in the cavalcade, and elicited no ‘little sport from the crowd.. Altogether, this feature of the day was a -great success. The heavy rain in the evening prevented’the balloon ascension and'display of fire-works.” No accidents happened to mar the enjoynients of the dJday, and nothing was needed to have made a grand success of the entire programme but a clear -day and night. lam of the opinion of old John Adams. The Fourth of ‘July should be celebrated*with cannon and drums, music and all manner of innocent enjoyments. It should be a ‘day for fun and pleasure as well as for ‘patriotic feeling and'thanksgiving.— That generation has passed entirely away, and we should celebrate itheir heroism and virtue not only by patriotic speeches and songs, but by such amusements as are calenlated to put away for‘the day the cares and troubles of our every day life. = One'or two young men, who got too patriotic on whisky, were taken in hand by the Marshal and locked up in Jjail. Gilbert, the tonguey Kendallville ‘auctioneer, was on hand with a load of cheap articles which he disposed of ‘at paying figures. Gold chains and rings and lockets were sold very eheap, ‘and no. doubt some of the <buyers ‘thought they were getting fine bargains. At least Gilbert fold them so. We noticed agood many people from Cromwell and vicinity in town, the railroad affording facilities not hitherto enjoyed by the people in the west‘ern part of the county to come over here on suéh occasions. - '

Shearman, one of Beecher’s lawyers, stated at a meeting of Plymouth Church the!other evening that “they had won a victory!” “That Mr. Beecher’s letters were the proudest feature of Mr. Beecher’s case!” It is the let‘ters of Mr. Beecher that have caused his overthrow in the public estimation. Without those letters Mr. Tilton stood not a ghost of a chance against Beecher. ' Tilton gets no damages, ‘but Beecher certainly has suffered terrible damage. But the end is not yet by any means.: At ene time the jury stood six to sizx, and when they came in finally they stood nine to three.

i RETROSPECT,! L ] ~The greatest trial of this age and country — Tilton vs. Beecher —has come to the lame and impotent conclusion that has been anticipated ever since the close of the evidence. The jury has failed to agree on a verdict. Nobody, says the Chicago T'ribune, is résponsible® for this . unsatisfactory termindtion exeept the parties to the suit, and the relative measuge of their responsibility cannot yet be%etermined. Never was there abler or mg_r'e persistent effort on ali sides to arrive at truth and justice, in compliance with the-arbitrary technical requirements of the law, and to the satisfaction of the public. The struggle lastel six months lacking two days. After some preliminary proceedings, the case: was called for trial on-Monday morning, January 4,‘and the jury was ‘discharged on the morning of July 2. One hundred and eleven witnesses were examined, the testimony of some of them occupying several days; The summing-up for the defense consumed fourteen days, and Mr. Beach addressed the jury on the part of the plaintiff seven days. Judge Neilson’s charge was brief, pointed, and‘intelligent: and he has presided over the trial throughout, though beset by countless complications, technicalities, ang, obstacles, with great fairness, impartiality, and learning that have given him the position.of a model Judge. The counsel on both sides included the very highest legal ability in the ccuntry, and they found a fertile fiell in the intensity of the issue, the accomplishments and eloquence of many of the witnesses; and the freedom which the. Court afforded edch of them to tell his story in his own way. The jury was composed of men . conceded on all sides to be persons of more than ordinary intelligence. They could not agree after an earnest consilltation of eight days and nights. Thus nothing was lacking which time, money, and ability‘could command to bring the issue’to a final and satisfactory termination. Yet there has been a failure, and the issue of veracity between Tilton and Beecher stands just where it did when the trial began. :

HOW IS _THIS DISAGREEMENT TO BE . - _ CONSTRUED? It does not mean that Mr. Beecher is undo,ubbtedly guilty; it does not mean that he is clearly innocent. It would be a distortion of law. and a strain upon i{:dmmgn sense to claim a vindication for Mr. Beecher because the jur’_\} Tailed to assess damages upon him for. the benefit. of Mr. Tilton. The jury stood 9 to 3; this does not mean that Mr." Beecher is nine parts innocent and three parts guilty. It was a question of fact, and not any question of law, which puzzled the jury. It was impossible to arrive at-a unanimous conviction that Mr. Beecher was innocent of the crime of adultery, or that he was guilty as charged by the plaintiff, and the disagreement of the twelve men is a reflex of public sentiment, of which they are fair average representatives. Their numerical division is purely fortuitotis, and may or may not typify the public division on the question. . > . BEECHER'S ADVANTAGES..

It cannot be denied, however, that there were other considerations besides the direct issue of the innocence or guilt of Mr. Beecher, and the twelve men asked to try that issue could no more escape their ‘influence _than those outside the court-room. All of these considerations were fayorable to Mr. Beecher. ~First and foremost was the exalted position of the defendant which included- the service he has rendered the cause of religion, the presumable purity of his former life, his great power of eloquence and personal ‘magnetism, and the united and enthusiastic partnership of his, -own powerful, wealthy’ church.— Scarcely second to these influences in his behalf was the contemptible attitude in which the plaintiff.appeared, and. the free-love smirch which the defense were able to put upon him and seme of his associates. Tilton Awas necessarily confined td a suit for damages. Unfortunately there is no practical reeognition of a punishment for adultéry as a c¢rime in this country. The man whose bed is defiled has but one of three resources. Ile ‘may take vengeance in his own hands, kill his wife’s seducer, and ‘run his ‘chanlces of proving seduction when he ‘is tried for murder; in case he cap prove it; the outraged husband 1s usually acquitted on the ground of “emotional insanity” without the jury leaving their seats. Tilton excluded ‘himself from this course by the delgy of years. He might also have rid himself of his, and brought public disgrace ‘upon her seducer if he had gone into the divorce courts and proved his case. But he shut himself out from this, also, by condoning his wife’s offense and living with her for thres or four

years after his alleged discovery ,of‘l her infidelity. There only remained, therefore, a suit against Beecher for | money damages, and this was thecase that went before the jury. It is aform of ‘lawsuit which is regarded with: distrust in all -eases—and in most of them itis held in contempt; but in this there were particular reasons for regarding the plaintiff’s suit with disfavor. He came before the jury, to put it plainly, as a conscious cuckold. His case rested upon'his own confesy sion that he had known his wife’s cerimé for years before he took any steps to avenge himself; that he had. sought “grace, mercy, and peace” at the hands of his wife’s seducer; that he had enjoyed the benefits of Beecher's money, whether -deliberately or not; that he had not kept himself clear of disteputable free-love associations; and that he had only taken steps towards punishing his wife’s paramour when public opinion forced him to it in his own vindication. It was then -that the only punishment he could seek to put upon Beecher ‘was to ask that a court and jury compel the defendant to pay over $lOO,OOO in money to a man who confessed ‘himself contemptible in law and be- | fore the world.. . g

WHAT MIGHT HAVE BEEN. ‘ This was the place in which the issue between Tilton and Beecher came before the jury, and it could not fail, if they were himan, to influence their deliberations. - Had Beecher not been Beecher, and’ Tilton had sued him at law (as the only way to reach him) immediately upon a confession. of his wife’s seduction, there is not a reasonable doubt that the evidence produced” by the' plaintiff, and ‘the damning letters which defendant had written, would have insured a verdict for vindictive damages in fewer hours than the jury has taken of days to ‘Teach a permanent; disagréement.— This brings us up to the only eonstruction we can put upon the verdict. The jury says, in effecf:' “We are unable to agree that Mr. Beeeher is innocent, but we do noﬁ believe Tilton is entitled to-any sympathy. We cannot vindicate Beecher, but we shall not avenge Tilton.” : :

- NO VICTORY FOR EITHER SIDE. Mr. Beecher’s partisans and Mr. Tilton’s partisans will both claim the result as a victory"for their man. The claim‘is about equally absurd on both sides,' but perhaps more so' on the Beecher side than on the other. » The sympathy of the whole religious and moral community, the disinclination of all respectable people to convict him, the power of his church, the ability and devotion of his counsel, his own exalted position;* and the suspicion and contempt attached to his accuser, would undoubtedly have carried a verdict in favor of -Mr. Beecher if there had been thie harest opportunity for it. Wk o ; DUTY: OF )11{.‘?131«:15011131{'. e A disagreement of-the jury is not a viégﬁcation of Mr;: ‘Beecher; on the contrary, it is an inflication thatthere are. good grounds, :?fter a full hearing of the case, forthose who believe him guilty. Tt 1;)%): Beecher, therefore, to take the next step. His duty is clear and unmistakable. He appeared - before the ‘Grand Jury and had Tilton and Motlton indicted for slander and libel nearly a year ago, and before Tilton instituted his eivil suit against him. Those indictments ought really to have taken.precedence in the order of the trial; that they did not was still another concession to Mr. Beecher. But it is the duty of the Prdsecutixpg-AttomeY 'to press them now, and itis the duty of Mr. Beecher as prosecuting witness to demand that they be tried at the earliest practicable moment.. His failure to do this will leave the blot which the : s : S disagreement of the jury in-the civil suit has put upon him. The criminal proceedings will open the door to all the evidence w_hiéh was suppressed, and the conviction of Tilton will be the complete vindication of Beecher, or the acquittal of Tilton . will be the molal conviction of Beecher. -

“The World” on Beecher’s Acquittal. The N. Y. Worild, which from the very beginning of the great scandal .suit has been unsparing in its denun- ! | ciation of Theodore Tilton, concludes an able review-of the trial in this language: “But it by no means follows from this that the’defendant stands restored, by this d‘i';agreement, tol the place which he oceupied in the respect | and confidence of the American people before this;dlsgustiﬁg scandal began. On the contrary, while this. trial has developed absolutely nothing to justify the accusers of Mr. Béecher in their gross chief accusation against him, it has revealed a thousand things which more than justify the profound distrust long felt by thousands of thoughtful and conservative minds of the mor‘al methods and the religious theories of Mr. Beecher and’of Mr. Beecher’s { school. Mr. Beecher stands substantially acquitted to-day of adultery with Mrs. Tilton ; but he stands also to-day substantially convicted of enabling Mr.. Tilton to bring such an accusation against himself with: plausibility, by his loose and heedless disregard of the | conditions “which sober and law-re-specting men observe in the formation -and establishment of their social and | personal relations in life. If we ac- | cept Mr. Beecher’s own account of the origin of all this scandal, it conviets him of consulting only his own personal sentiments and convenienée in an emergency which really Anvolved much wider interests. ‘He was plainly held and bound to regard that accusa--tion as an attack upon the great social sanctities of his’profesqﬂ&znd as such to repel it instantly and, indignantly. Instead of doing this hé fell to arguing, sympathizing and ¢ompromising “with his assailants, writing them let--ters in an unknown tongue, and sup- . plying them with the material of the’ monstrous mud-voleano which has been vomiting itself over the whole country for' months past. The skill of the able lawyers who have defended him before Judge Neilson's court | was scarcely needed to overthrow the specific charge brought against him in that court. But not even these able lawyers can clear him in the public opinion of the American-people of the | hardly less grave and the more widely | mischievous offense of dealing with a. | public outrage-as if it were a private

The city of San Jose de Cucuta, in Colombia, South America, was almost totally destroyed by an earthquake on the morning of the 9th of' June. The shock commenced at about half past 11 o’clock A. M., and continued | about fifteen seconds, yet in that short spacé of time a city of 12,000 inhabi-' tants was almost totaily destroyed. The frightened inhabitants rushed into the streets, and for a short time the air. t‘i‘ts filled with the shrieks and groans of the people. Houses had been thrown from their foundations, literally turned upside down, and the scene presented was one'of indeserib-: able horror. Presently the’ shock ceased and the air was filled with an immense cloud of dust, which veiled from sight the terrible prospect and rendered- respiration difficult. A si~

lence as profound as that of the grave succeeded. - This lasted less than two | minutes; but the time was sufficient for the grim messenger, for many died from suffocation. 'A wind suddenly carried.away the dust, and the terrible work of the earthquake was bro’t to view.

Further advices received fron‘rCu-{ cuca, the scene of the recent dreadful earthquake in South America, increase the horrors of the sitnation. Cucuca was a city in Ecuador, hqvixfg a’ﬁ)op,,ulation of twenty thousand, located in a.wide plain. Ten thousand of the inhabitants were killed at the outset by being swéllowed up, or by falling’ walls. - Many of the survivors were mare or less injured, and of these large numbers have since died. The people are without food, shelter, or medical assistance, wandering about the suburbs of the destroyed city. Fears are entertained that the putrefaction of the dead bodies of the victims will cause a plague. Nine other towns besides Cucuca were destroyed, and it, is estimated that the total loss of life. will aggregate at least 20,000. Subscriptions for ‘the relief ofithe sufferers are being made by the people of the unharmed districts. GREAT FLOODS IN FRANCE. :

- It is estimated that the destruction of property by inundations in the soxltlx-\f\'e?terll portion of France will amount to 800,000,000 francs. The number of persons who perished is estimated at 3,000. -President MacMahon continues his tour through the inundated district. The subscription list opened by him for the relief of sufferers in the valley of Garonne now foots up $150,000. B o FLOODS TN HUNGARY, = . = On Tuesday of last week Pesth, the capital of Hungary, was visited by a terriffic storm.. The dispateh says the lightning was incessant, and hail fell in such quantities that the roofs of houses aud surrounding hills were covered fwo feet thick with ice. The fall of rain was tremendous, the streets ‘becoming torrents, sweeping away buildings, vehicles and individuals. At least 100 persons are known to have! been killed by''the falling walls or drowned, and 500 are missing.

CHURUBUSCO SQUIBS. " The glorious Fourth was celebrated here on Saturday, the 3d inst., with all the'energy of the people. Large crowds of people gathered in town’ early in the morning, to commemorate the great day, in honor of our forefathers who fought so bravely and shed their precious blood that we to-day might. enjoy this glorious liberty. About 10 ;’o"clock the. crowd marched to the ‘grove, led by the band, where they’ .partook of their frugal dinner, which. they enjoyed hugely. But, lo! the distant thunder and the clouds foretold the near approach of danger, which caused a hasty retreat, and ere they reached the town I fear many of ‘their white robes were soiled with the heavy rain that fell. But on reaching town we heard the chime of a dinner bell at the Knox Hall, where the Baptist ladies, and others had gathered with all their goodies and prepared dinner for all, at thirty-five cents per meal,—and shelter, too—for the bene‘fit of their:new church. After dinner the rain had ceased and all were again’ in their glory. We proceeded a second time to the grove where we heard an elegant speech from Prof. Gandy, which ' put new aspirations in our breasts. Several gentlemen responded to toasts, as they were called upon by Prof. (landy, among whom was Doc. Morris whose remarks brought hearty ‘cheers from the people in honor of the Red, ‘White and Blue. After the speeches all returned to town and those wishing to do so partook of the thirty-five cent supper and waited to ‘ see the fire-works in the evening. But the rain descended again in torrents, in consequence of which this part of ‘the programmé proved almost a failure, but was really better than we anticipated owing to the inclemency of the weather. “Several quarrels occurred during the day, but there were ‘nofights. o i A M

The Democratic State convention of California met in San Francisco on the 80th ult. and nominated William Irwin for Governor.. The platform ‘adopted declares the party “opposed to unconstitutional - interference of the Federal Administration in the domestic affairs of States, by which one portion of the Union is ground with taxation to keep another portion of the Union in bankruptey and servitude,” and arrajgns the republican party for a.long catalogue of enormities. It declares, also, in fovor of hard money. ok : - Elkhart Councilmen put in their ‘Sundays playing croquet. =~ .

~ Advices from the Black Hills expedition show that investigations are proving the country to be richer in gold than has been heretofore’supposed. The earth down to the bed rock. in every direction is filled with particles, and the quartz shows rich veins. These advices are from responsible official sources: -

The Brooklyn jurors have received their per diem at the rate of two dol+ lars per day, but claim five extra. As that matter is in the hands of the supervisors -of Kings county, who are reputed friends of Mr. Beecher, their prospects . for securing their claims are not brilliant. They should have struck for higher wages long ago. ~ The Republicans of Towa held their convention’ on: Wednesday 'of last week and nominated a State ticket. headed by Samuel J: Kirkwood for Giovernor. The convention resolved that “the Republic is a.Nation, one and indissoluble,” and recognized gold and silver as the only reliable legal tenders ‘and favored the gradual attainment of a currency convertible with coin. : ;
