SENATOR THOMAS F. BAYARD, of Delaware, strikes the key-note of true reform. Some time since he made 4 speech in Raleigh, North Carolina, in response to a serenade, during the eourse of which he asked the people of that State to act upon the principle that party trickery was not politics, but that duty to country was next to devotion to God. 'He wanted the men of the South united, not for southern preponderance or southern control, but to secure the first great principle of a happy union-—the equality of the States. He urged them to cultivate good. will between the sections, and hoped the people of all the States would do likewise. = . -

_ THE. result of the Mississippi election has justified the wisdom and fore~sight of Hon. L. Q. C. Larmar, who: went into the democratic State ‘con- - vention of that State, and succeeded in engrafting upen the platform ofhis party a careful and tolerant recognition of the political right of the colored people. His policy met with “some opposition from men who were disposed to draw the-“color line” outside of the constitutional guide-posts, but it was accepted by the bulk of the ~ democratic party and cordially acted ~upon. The resnlt has been that a very . considerable negro vote has been polled for democratic candidates and the .

» THOSE FRENCH ASSIGNATS, .MR. EpITOR:~—In my reading of essays ondinance, I occasionally come across the term “French ‘Assignats.” As that “circulating medium” is said to be a good mirror for those favoring the inflation theory, you would gonfer a favor upon myself and several others by giving a brief histoty of its introduction and disappearance. . "~

e . . . SPARTA FARMER. Acecording to the best and most authentic information, the French assignats were based on the theory of the financier John Law, who held that the best money system was.au irredeemable eurrency ‘based upon objects of value, as land: and real property, not to exceed in amount of circulation the casli value of the property. Under this theory the assignats were issued “as a paper curreney secured especially by the public lands which were assigned for their redemption as well as by the solemn pledge of the public 'faith and credit. PigiroiiKelley, Ben Butler, Wendell Phillips and’ Sam Carey propose, in our country, a.similar financial system, viz: greenbacks, instead of being convertible into gold and silver, shall rest perpetually on the “credit of the mation.”.

-On the assembling of the Frenclr Constituent Assembly in 1789, one of the first measures ‘was the adoption of the proposition of Talleyrand to confiscate the entire church property of the Kingdom, one part to be reserved far the use of the clergy and the rest to be applied to the uses of the State. The entire worth of the confiscated propérty. that fell to the State was estimated at two milliards of francs, or about four hundred million dollars. But it was not an easy matter to con‘vert this vast amount of real estate into money for the iise of thée bankrupt treasury, :and accordingly in the same year, asfsi_gnats‘ based on " this property were issued to tl'le"gxtexxt of four hundred million francs. This ‘currency “bore five per cent. interest and was declared a legal tender. But the amount was -too small, and the next year Mirabéau proposed to the national assembly that the issue be doubled, The- proposition was warmly opposed, but the manufacture of paper money once begun there was no resisting ‘the-tide of inflation.— Mirabeau’s proposition was. adopted, and ata dash new assignats to the amount of eight hundred miliion francs were issued. At the same time it Was solemnly resolved that the issues of .paper money should not exceed twelve hundfed_mi‘l'lioii's; The assignats no longer bore interest, and they thus befame the irredeemable legal currency of the French nation.

'Within. two months after the first. issue the assignats began to depreciaté, notwithstanding the- double pledge of the public lands and the national credit. Specie sx;xddenly disappeared from circulation. - But a few million of the assignats were-convert-ed from time to time into land and’ were, cahcelled. In the year 1792 a new issue of a thousand millions was authorized, and the limit of the total emissions was fixed' at twenty-four hundred millions.of francs. The assignats declined thirty per cent., and the money was refused in the markets ‘of Paris in exchange for the- necessaries of life. it 1793 the finance, minister reported that the assignats. incirculation amounted to twenty-three ‘huridred million francs. As the public domains on which they wetre based amounted in value to three thousand | millions, the value of the lands’still” exceeded by seven hundred millions the issues of assignats.. Eight hundred millions more were accordingly issued. ; bge L :

But-there was still not enough money in circulation to satisfy the demands of business. - New issues to the amount of twelve hundred millions were made and sevefe penallaws were passed to prévent the depreciation of the cutrency. Six years’imprisonmeént was the penalty for exchanging assignats for silver under their normal ‘worth. ‘The price of wheat was fixed at a maximum and the refusal to sell wheat for assignats was actually declared a capital offense.. But in spite of every legal precattion a silver franc was worth three paper.ones in June, 1793, and in August it was worth six. After the fall of Robespierre the minister of finance proposed resumption of specie payments as the only means of relief. © But the convention disagreed with him. In 1795 the assignats in circulation amounted to. $3,800,000,000.° The public officials resigned. Desertions threatened. the very existence of an army which was paid in this trash. When the directory of Barras came into power - they found not-a dollar in the treasury and not a piece of furniture in the public offices. The assignats that were printed during the night supplied the gov“ernment necessities for the following day. A new species of currency to supercede the assignats, called .mandats, was now invented with the same basis of the public lands. = By this means the conversion of money into the public lands was facilitated. They were made legal tenders, and severe penal laws ag4inst their exchange for gold and silver below their nominal worth were adopted. The Bourse. was closed to prevent speculation in thenew paper money. But every expedient was in vain.. The value of the mandats fell from one hundred to eighteen francs on the day of their issue. But when the sale of lands took place and purchasers increased the mandats rese again to thirty, forty and once to eighty-three francs. Sometimes the fluctuations varied from fifty to one hundred per cent. in one day. But the mandats soon went the way gf their predecessors. The people;&sed to take them at any price. in exohange for necessaries of life, 'and they were at last repudiated by the government itself. On the 16th of July, 1796, the government decreed ‘that the mandats could be taken dt their specie value. The paper money wa destroyed at a blow. Gold and silver began to ciroulate, and in & year’s time specie payments wero resumed. But the extent of thedistress Y rseat bt skt L I b b o e ki bl

< ! MISBISSIPPI'S VICTORY. | ~'The honest people of Mississippi | have achieved a glorious victory in their late election, and when the real condition of political affairs in that State is understood we need not wonder that they were desperatelv in .earnest in the matter. A correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial, in a recent communication, says that in one county in Mississippi the taxes are eight per cent. on a cash valuation of the property, and in: another they are-ten per cent. -These‘counties contain but a small proportion of whites, and are controlled by negroes. He} names another county .under negro rule, where the entire property of the three thousand radical voters was not “suffieient to make good the bond: of the radical sheriff. That officer had to bargain ;with. Conservatives in order to give.the necessary security. Is it any wonder with such a condition of things as this, remarks the Indian- ' apolis Sentinel, that the white people of Mississippi made strong efforts to carry the last.election? Is it surprising that they strained every nerve to defeat. the scoundrels that had banded together to rob them of property and home? ‘No people on earth, having the, spirit of men, will sit down -and se¢ their property confiscated without making an effort, to prevent it. Did a similar state of affairs exist in Indiana; think you the people would make no effort to loosen the cords with which they were bound? Happily for Mississippi, and happily for the country, the people of that State regained possession of its government at the late elegtion. The confiscating of prpperty» ulfder pretext of levying taxes’is, therefore, at an end in Mississippi. South (arolinais new the only place where ignorant negroes, thieving carpet-baggers and pestiferous scalawags rule the State, and if President Grant will'keep the federal soldiers away, at the next election she, too, will throw off the yoke that has borne so heavily on her people since they have been under radical rule. -« o R

' Horrible Marine Disasters. During the past week we have had news of two singularly horrible marine disasters. Between eight and nine o’clock on the evening of the 4th inst,, the steamsilip Pacific struck a rock (or collided with another vessel) about 40 miles off cape Flattery, between Victoria and San Francisco, and went to the bottom, carrying down With her every soul on board save a passenger named Henry F. Jelley, who floated on the pilot house for thirty-eight hours, and "was finally rescued by a sailing vessel. The total number lost is set down at 200, thouglh it is possible that afew others beside . Jelley: were saved. At one o’clock of Tuesday morning, the steamship City of Waco, while anchored- off the bar, at Galveston, Texas, iit company with fift}eeq‘_other"vessels, took fire and burned to the water’s edge in a short time. The crew and passengers, numbering some fifty, took to the four life boats and left the ship at three ol’clock"A. M., drifting thraugh the fleet which, it seems, was unable to render them any aid, on account of the h_igfi, rough sea, a rain storm prevailing at the time. So these 48 or 50, men,.women and children, in open bbats, were blown out into the open ‘merciless deep, and up to this writing nothing has' been seen or heard of them. It is believed that all have found graves in the Gulf. o " —There is little room to hope that any of the passengers or crew of the steamer City of Waco, which burned off ‘Galveston harbor, have escaped. Officers of ships lying in the immediate vicinity of the burning vessel declare that the work of destruction was -very rapid, and:that the entire hull was wrapped in flames in a few minutes after the fire was first discovered, giving those on board only the fearful alternative of death by fire or water. Another survivor of the lost steamer Pacific lias been rescued from a .raft after floating two:days at the mercy of the waves. -He says the steamer was run down by a ship under full sail, and the aditional fact that a large ship carrying a signal of distress was seen in the locality by -another vgs’sel’. -goes to confirm his statement.. It may also prove .that the disabled vessel was instrumental in saving some of the unfortunates who had) taken to the boats or rafts when the Pacific went down. .

To the Parents and Teachers of Noble : County. . : The State Educational Committee earnestly ‘desire that the 59th anniversary of the admission of Indiana to the Union, on the 11th day of De.cember next, shall be observed in every school -house- within the State. ‘While it commemorates this special event it is also designed to interest the children in the Centennial Anniversary now aproaching; to educate them to the underlying principles of our republican government and the duties of American citizenship, and to enable them td contribute their mite in labor and money towards promoting'the success -of the great exposition. It is 'proposed -that each teacher shall arrangegfoy some kind of entertainment—recitations, exhibitions or .spel'ling_, exercises will be appropriate—charging a small admission fee. Shool Trustees are earnestly requested to.‘co-opérate with the'teaqhers. The parents, too, should see that the work is undertaken in their respective distrigts and should unite to malke the occ%‘ofn one which shall be, if possible, a‘memorable event in the child’s life. Let it be remembered that the raising of money, although it is to be devoted to the noble purpose of exhibiting to the world the immeénse resources and.educational advantages of our great State, is of secondary importance compared with the instruction of the ehildren, assuggested. These entertainments should be liberly patronized. The proceeds may be remittéed to S. M, Ridenour, Treasurer of the State Centennial Fi nance Committe, at Indianapolis, who will return a receipt for the same.

.~ INCIDENTS OF TRAVEL. . To the Editor of the National Banner: ~ We have this day (Nov. 9) returned from a pleasant and instructive journey, extending through Lagrange, Sturgis, Three Rivers and Elkhart, where we miet friends whom we were very glad to see. At Elkhart we attended the county Teachers’ Institute. Here weye collected two or three hundred school teachers, for the purpose of receiving ‘instructions in the art and science of teaching from Professors and teachers: of greater experience. We wish to say that the suggestions made, the ‘good appearance and attention of this numerous assemblage of teachers, who were soon_to go out and take charge of the public sehidols of Elkhart county, made our nervous system thrill with joy and hope for the success of humanity. Our imagination extended all over our nd?l)le' State, and we wished that all the counties might have as good a prospect as Elkhart for efficient instructors. S

-Having taken passage on the:mnight express, we arrived in: Chicago ' early Saturday morning. Here we perambulated the city by means of foot conveyance and the convenience of street cars.. In our walk on Madison street, starting from Wabash avenue, we met a man having the appearance of a countryman who said -he thought he knew us, but soon acknowledged his mistake. He ascertained our name and learned that our residence was in Lagrangé county, Indiana. He then requested to know. the name of our county seat, which we informed him was L'éxg'ra._nge. We then walked on leisurally about two squares and a half, when we were met by a man who .came down a pair of stairs, and who grasped our hand and shook it fervently, saying, “Why,don’t you kriow me? My name is Clark. I was in the pump business in Lagrange and 'know you well.” He desired us to accompany him a few steps to see a #sinking house.” We consented, and, f'avs we passed "alofig, soon met a stranger to both of us, apparently, who showed us: some éé;rds with numbers on and which he invited my friend and myself to buy, claiming that we could win a great. fortune’ by investing therein. ~ As we had no desire to ‘make a fortune dishonestly, and could easily enough see in these mancuvers -8 plo' to Tob us, we informed these prete%:xded friends ‘that their scheme would be unsuccessful this time; that their running and skulking would not pay. Their character and plans were well known. We jeered them; told them they could not come it, after all their trouble, and we. made -as much noise as on any former occasion, which made the rogues look very red in the face. - ‘The police did naot censure us, nor threaten us with arrest, but said we served the gamblers right. We have since thought often of the invitation 1o go and see the sinking house, and would like to advise all, ¢ld and young, not to enter it. : <

From Chicago we went to the city of Joliet, where we. remained with friends till Monday morning?_ It happened on Sunday that we attended the Catholic chureh, :which was so full that scarcety a square foot of space was unogcupied by attentive worshipers, while many others stood about the doors, unable to. gain entrance. Having been efucated a Protestant, we could not be interested in the theatrical. performance and unknown language used in the first part of their worship, but the sermon was excel lent. The priest spoke on the subject of Charity, which he said was greater than faith. He said that slanderers were thieyes; that they took from others their good name, thus showing ‘their, want of charity, and that it would. be better for the community if long-tongued tattlers” were imprisoned for life. He also said that those who cursed and damned each other could not be good Catholics, and that -all such would certainly go to hell. ‘The drunkard was placed in the same grade as the slanderer and the curser, as he deprived himself of the iipbility to be useful and was a nuisance to society and a disgrace to the Catholic Church. ,/The true Catholic Christian must do good to all and harm to no one. Then he spoke of the lottery and the gambler--those who desire to ebtain money and goods from others without making return of value for value. These practices encouraged loafing, or idleness, depraved the mind ‘and encouraged all dishonesty, while it resulted in no good to mankind. The gambler, also, was a nuisance dnd a disgrace to the Catholic Church, and would c_érbainly go to hell, unless he’ repent and turn from his wickedness. In these, and many other things, we were compelled to agree with the speaker, on 'accounfi of the Q‘thlll‘é ness of his remagrks. We remarked to a man who said he had come twelve miles to the meeting that we had heard a truthful sermon,. to which he consented and said he hoped it would do his people some good. " Yes, we think such a sermon would do even ‘our Protestant brethren'some good. . From Joliet we returned to Chicago tc’m Monday morning, where we finish‘ed our ‘business and returned to Goshen, arriving at thelatter pointabout ten #'clock P.M. We visited friends. here and arrived in Ligonier about ten o’clock A.». of Tuesday. i As we rapidly approached Lig :nier, our heart was filled with pleasant emotions. It seemed like coming home. We thought of the many courtesies shown us, and otliers, by business men. We have dn interest in ‘Ligonier, not that we own any yeal’ ‘estate thiere, but a small share of the business is ours; also the right to inStruct or amuse ourself there, We are proud to say that Ligonier will compare favorably with. any other ‘town of its size in Northern Indiana. But, alas! the sinking house is there, with all its wretchedness and despair.. We thank the Catholic priest for his excellent discourse on Charity, also the Chicago gamblers for the hint concormitng the sinking houss, nod would, e DR . e sbip Caleutia, rom Quebés for

STARTLING FIGURES, ! 540,000,000 Gallons of Spirituons and Malt Liguors used Annu- + - ally in the United states.

. During the past week, the South Bend Register Says, the National Health ' Association of the United States has been holding its sessions in Baltimore and its proceedings were parficipated in by gentlemen of undoubted talent and experiencein their i profession, men who have established world-wide repiitations in medicine, cliemistry and kindred sciences and to whom the world looks for information on matters connected with the healing art, etc. Among the subjects. discussed there was no question that possesses more interest to the country at large nor has a more direet infiu-. ence on the happiness and welfare of a'con'xmunity, than a paper on alcoholic drinks prepared by Prof. H. O. Hitcheock, of Kalamazoo, President ~of the State Board of Health of Mi‘c.h'igan, and read by Dr. Hunt, 'of New York City. The followinginteresting, facts and statistics are taken from this paper and should be pondered over seriously by every citizen who has the true and best interests:of his country at heart. There are manufactured in the United States about 100,000,000 gallons distilled spirits annually,' which gives three gallons to every man, woman and child in the country; 400,000,000 gallons brewed 'liquofrs, or twelve gallons to ‘every ‘man, woman and child, and 20,000,000 -gallons of wines, whish added to the same amount imported from Europe, makes 40,000,000, or one gallon to every man, woman and child. This makéds a grand total of 540,000,000 gallons,.of spirituous and malt.liquors used annually ‘in the United States, and would fill a laKe one mile square and 215 feet deep. An enormous amount surely. The value of the business of retail liquor dealers in the. | country in 1865 was $1,483,491,765, or equivalent ‘to each man, woman and child in the country contributing $4B to this fund of blood and tears and misery. No wonder it is asserted that al- . coholic drinks have an influence on the health of a community. The writer says that experiments prove:that, aleehol poisons the blood, arrests the development, as well as hastens the decay, of the vital principle of the blood. Taking Lord Shaftsbury’s percentage for England, and there are 22,485 insane persons in this country’ whose infirmity is directiy traceable to aleohol. Of the 40,880 idiotic per—sons in the United States, 18,270 were brought to this condition Dy strong drink alone. A. S.Fiske, A. M., in ‘a paper published sone time since says that between 80 and 90 per cent. of our criminals connect their dewnfall with-the use of aleohol. This. ingidious poison also brings 40,000 to 50,000 annually to a grave of dishonpr, and | leaves an inheritance of crime and poverty -to those- depending upon them. ¢ i o el i 3

- These facts are appalling; they are | enough to arouse the attention of the well thinking of every section of the country. . e .

Tlhe fact is universally conceded ‘w that Ligonier possesses all the neces‘'sary qqnlitieé of 4 mztf‘.ufelctm‘ing,‘ town: In addition to this,its location ‘ makes it one of the most pleasaiit and healthful places in the State. Qur churches will speak for the good morals of our community, and our’school privileges promise soon to be second to none 'in the State. And besides this, our gedgraphieal position, and the unfrequency of cottiguous villages around us, gives us the advantages of a larger tfa.de, we venture to say, than is enjoyed by any other town of equal gize in Indiana. : These are facts which cannot be contreverted, but the -object of this artiele is'not to boast of what we are, butito endedvor to bring' to the minds of our industrious, live .and wide awake business men the impo_ytance ‘of an organization, the ob- ‘ ject of which should be the advancement of the business-interests of ou‘r'! town. An organization of this.kind, to meet for-two hours one night during each week, would bring our business men together, as well as all other live citizens of our town, and ‘in various ways be. produbtive of much good. Notwithstanding we have met with some temporary reverses in the establishment of manufacturies here, there is no reason why we should be discouraged. Mechanics from a dis-, tance could be .induced to locate here ‘ by receiving encouragement such as an ‘ organization of this kind would 'gii’e.j Propositions could and would be made { for a greater extension of bur manufacturing interest. Every enterpri_se‘ caleulated to improve the business in- ‘ terest. of our town could be discussed and acted upon. Other towns, with less natural facilities than we have, are rapidly developing into eities, and it is all done by the organization of the citizens of said villages. Theleading cities of our State have been made by active and hedrty co-opperation of their citizens, ahd while we may not .expect to rival Indianapolis or Fort ‘Wayne in point of wealth and business, yet we can, byéactive work, excel and put te shame some of the towns in our Stdte that are more than twice B ElgEs . o B e

We earnestly request that our business men, mechanics and citizens will take this proposition into careful considergtion and proceed at once to the organizatign of a Merchant’s and Mechanie’s. Board. Were this done on the first day of January, 1876; the proud inaugural of ‘our centennial year, would find our business improved, our many different interests better worked up, and our population measurably increased. -

best preparations of its kind in use, and is recommended by regular practitioners of medicine. ; It has a large sale, and can be found'in all our drug stores. A bottle or package should be found in every family, as its judicious use is almost certain to prevent a Bilious attack, if taken when the symptoms first show then‘rxgselves.’ i l

—The- Huntington Herald says: “Nothing to our mind is more advantageous to a town, or is anything calculated to make a better impression on the mind of the observer, than to take up a paper and find its advertising columns well filled with fresh and well gottén up advertisements, Merchants; as well as mechanics are’ sure to make 'mo‘n:ey and prosi)er by a judicious use of the advertising columns of a newspaper. 'Me"n’ ‘while sitting at their fireside, are often induced to divide their trade by the sight of an advertisement in their local paper, and ’on‘i coming to town have their minds made up as to just where they-are going to ‘invest their money or dispose of their product.” Tnr BANNER affords our fnerchants an excellent opportunity to -advertise. their goods in Noble county._ - -
