- THE SCHOOL QUESTION. Simply to keep the readers of THE BANNER duly. posted on the “great issues” before the people, and not because we attach any considerable importance to the matter itself, we deem: it ineumbent upon' us to present to our readers a brief summ'a’ry.cifv-‘ the “rige and progress” of what is generally denomlinated the anti-sectarian school isstie. . .} -g, S 0 5e During the latter part of September, President Grant attended a mliitary gathering in the city of Des Moines, Towa. -As a matter of course, the President was expected to make a speech. To nieet this expectation, Mr. Grant prepa,regl and delivered a short*address in-which he took occasion te say that the next great contest to be decided by “the people of the United States would T®a contest between. intelligence and ignorance. Incidentally, lie gavé his hearers to understand that the common schools of this country were in-'g»lan»geif of being subverted by the intrigues and machinations of the Pope of Rome. The papers at once seized 131)011 this presidential utterance and gave it.an importance which, in our judgment, it never merited. Grant's pets (those. who are enjoying llis‘dfiicizzl patron-: ~age) painted to the Des Moinés speech as the key-note for thé campaign of 1876 and as being a I'eln';u'ka,}.fle evidence of Grant’s sagacious statesmanship! This performance was dbpbtle_ss intended to re-instate Mr. Grant in the.confidence of his own party and to give him prestige as a presidfmtial candidate for the coveted. third term. ".["he apparent popularity of this adroit movement did not escape -the attention of republican politicians. Not to be outstripped in this race for popular favor by mfzms of appeals to sectarian prejudice, €x-Speaker . Blaine, Grant’s most formidable rival for the Presidency, two or three weeks since camg forward with a- plan to avert the 'impending danget. In a letter “dated October 2()t>li,__l)ilt now. first pre‘sented to the light, Mr. Blaine proposes that the constifution of the United

States shall befafnended so that “no “State shall piss any law respecting. “an establishment of religion or pro“hibiting the free exercise- thereof; “and 1o money .raised by_ taxation in “any State for fihe support of public “schools or derived from any public “fund therefor shall ever be under, the “coutrol of ~any religious sect; nor “shall any -money so raised ever be “divided between religious sects and “denominations.” . PR In his recent _message, Presideixt Grant urged the adoption of an unsectarian. school ‘amendment. Mr. Blaine has-already acted ‘upon this suggestion by introducing such an amendment, and as the Dehioc_rafs seem desirous of avoiding a protracted struggle over this hollow .mea‘sure, the probabilities are that it will be speedily disposed of. If that.will forever take the “issue” out or the hands of scheming' politicians and designing demagogues, the whole counti'y will have cause to-rejoice over the event. : BELLIGERENT MATTHEW. The Chicago:-7'7ibune having charged the Hon, Matt. H. Carpenter, of ‘Wisconsin, with.having been a member of the whisky ring while in the.

to the editor he says: *lf your charges “are true ‘T am a disgraced man; if “not, you are; and which is the villain “we will submit to the determination “of .a jury where the difference be“tween truth and falrsehoo;d is i'écog“nized. If youéan establish my guilt I “ought to be disgraced, and am willing “to be; if you cannot; you ought to be, “however unwilling you -may: be.” The proposition so.sententiously expressed seems. to be “eminently‘-fair. The ex-Senator adds: “I will net take “yau to Washington, nor'Nové:Scotia, “nor Cuba, nor Cheyenne under the “Poland gag law!!! But will sue in #the: United States Circuit Court for “the northern district of Illinois, and “you may as well be collecting your “evidence upon the subject.” Mr, Carpenter hasaddvessed a similar note to the Chicago Evening Journal which had also charged him with conmection with the Milwaukee whisky ring. Notwithstanding this loud talk by indig= nant Matthew, philosopher Joe of the Tribune seems tO be at’ perfeét ease and gives no signs of fear o'l_' apprehension.. Matt. once threatened to sue the thcago Times fovlibe},but Storey got him out of the notion by simply writing him: “Don’t. make a d—-d fool of yourself.” . o

SPEAKING of the Blaine-Grant unsectarian school amendment, the ITarrisburg Patriot very appropriately remarks: ~ “The great difficulty that lies in the way of this ‘schbol question is that all parties are substantially agreed upon it and a controver'By cannot be maintained for want: of something to dispute about. No State has ever attempted to do the things Mr. Blaine’s proposed amendment - seeks to provide against; and no party in any State would object to a constitutional restriction of this kind, It-is very much like a constitutional affirmation. of the drainage of the great lakes through the medium of the river St. Lawrence. It will go on any way with or without -constitutional sanc-: tion. But after Mr. Blaine’s amendment i\s'.adopted,‘ fairly engrossed, and goes into effect, how will it be ‘about reading theßible in the public schools ? Will not the stupid. sectarians still. find cause of grievance, and demagogues be as ready as ever to fan the flames of religious. intolerance for their own selfish purpoges?”

AN EARNEST, 'mm.’;‘?ss PROSECUTOR—- ; NOT WANTED. . The most exciting topic in political circles during the pa%f, eight days has been the action of the President .in causing the dismissal of ex-U, 8. Senator John B. Henderson, who has conducted the prosecution against the whisky ring in St. Louis. It appears from statements emanating from the White House that |Mr. Henderson, though a leading Republican, had long since ceased to be on friendly terms fith Grant, but thatl the latter interposed no objection to Mr. Henderson’s appointment Dby Attorney-General Pierrepont, recognizing his eminent fithess for the’ perfiorgnaxxce of the duties entrusted tohis care. It is universally concedeiL that Mr, Ilenderson has managed ?the"-}czises g'aga'.inst dishonest revenue officers withh consx_m.imate skill and ability, and that if permitted to complete the job, every offender would have been brought to FERbICE e :

The’ cause for the President’s dismissal of Mr. Henderson may be found in the words embodied in the subjoined ‘extract f‘Lom’t‘lmtzggntleman’s plea before the St. Louis court: This is the Dblot. lhpon our Government—that it. is possible for such thingg te exist. They could not exist in England, France, or any other civilized Government, ttlut are peculiar to our boasted: Republie. It is party, party, party, that damns our country, and he who has the nerve to resist the behests of pm'Jty is. worthy of: more credit than the bravest of old Roman soldiers. Under thé name of party every fraud and infamy within the;range of possibilities is perpetrated. Itis to be hoped and prayed that the time is' coming when a man who: has the imperious fprce of character to* resist the dictates of party will be locked up to as a hero. ' But, we may go to the Dbottom,| corruption may feast in.all our instlltut’ions, and our nation may decay and fall before we learn this grand truth. - I respect party: when it is compos)ed of honest men, organized for honest purposes; but, when ‘it is composeji of mien banded together to perpetrate frauds upon ‘the Government to serve the personal ends of its leaders, then, away with it! I’ll.none of it.- |"'What right had Babcoek to go to Douglass to induce ‘him to.withdraw lis agents? Douglass was placed in hfis position to see thawthe revenue laws of the Government were properly enforced; what ‘business, then, ;hafcé: Douglass: with him? When.an official goes into office,. he should be free and independent of all influences, except that of law, :u},d if he I'eco"§nizes any. other master/then this Government is tumbling down. What right has the Pres‘ident to interfere with Commissioner Douglass in the 1)1,'?1)&' discharge of his duties, or with the Treasury? None; and Douglass showed*alamentable weakness of character when he listened tg Babcock’s dictates.! He should either have insisted that his: orders as they existed be carried out or should have resigned his office. Douglass now determined that his only. course was to change the Supervisors {all over the country, and this would necessarily expose fraud. On Jan. 20,1875, he telegraphed ITogue: “You are hereby ordered to report in person to Supervisor Tutton, who supersedes MecDonald in St. Louis.” This- was one of the first moves toward the change. On Feb. 3, 1875, a telegram signed “Sylph” was sent from here to Babcock, saying; - “We & have official information that the enemy weakens. Rush things.” This was Joyce’s writing, and the “enemy” referred to were those persons who were favoring the change of Supervisors. = A couple of days later, Douglass telegraphed Brooks: *“the order telling you to ‘report to Tutton is suspended.” * Now, why did Douglass -bend the supple hinges of the knee and permit any interference by the President? This was Douglass’ own bus--iness, and he stood responsible for it under his official oath. "He was bound to listen to no dictation from the President, Babcock, or any other ofticer, and it was his| duty to see that the order was carried out or either resign. : [0 Bad

We ask our readjiers to carefully study . every sentenjce in the above quotation, and to judge for themselves whethér the President is justified in dispensing with the services of a faithful attorney who has done all in his power to mete ouf punishment to the rascals wlo have defrauded the government of its revenue and shamefully corrupted the public service. Col. Broadhead has been designated as Henderson’s sucdess_or. "~ .Though a good lawyer and a staunch Democrat, no one expects that it will be possible for him to conduet the prosecution with the skill of his{firedecessor. 1t will require weeks |beforehe can fa‘miliarize himself Wi!th the case, which has: just become dpubly -interesting since the indic‘tniéht and arrest of Col. Babeock, Grants private secretary and bosom friend.. -

The Wworst feature about Henderson’s dismissal is that it .was efiectfd right on the heels| of Babcock’s indictment by the St. Louis grand jury. Are we not justified in inferring that Grant did not wisfi to include Babcock when he ostentatiously declared: “Let no guilty man escape!” 7

J. B. STILLSON, the talented «corre'spondent of the New York ff_Vorld,’ truthfully remarks that Grant’s follies are even worse than hissins. Hé has succeeded from time to time in getting his brother-in-law Corbin, his brother-in-law Casefy, his brother Orvil into disreputable scrapes in con-’ nection with his [(the President’s). name; and now his own son Fred, who was scandaloué]y and undeservedly promoted, after his exit from ‘West Point, to an afimy rank to which one of several veterans was by juSti(ze and the usages of the service entitled, is named as one of three who reeeived $500,000 worth of stock of a silver mining company in iquprad"o, for their influence'towards-bTeaking up a company which had the legal right to the mine.

THE IRREPRESSIBLE PINCHBACK, Notwithstanding his repeated repulses, the notorious and irrepressible Louisiana darkey, Pinchback, comes tb the front once more with his rotten claim to a seatin the Senate of the United ' States. The facts that both branches of Congress have declared the Legislature which elected him was a usurpation and a fraud, and that the infamous judge who issued the midnight decree on which the legality of the Legislature was based, was driven from the bench to escape impéachment, are matters of small moment to Pinch. He founds his claim to admission won diffetent grounds. In the close relations of parties in’;the Senate of the United States, he thinks his vote is needed to strengthen the; republican “majority. But herein lies the trouble with his case. 'When the republican majority in the Senate was strong, that majority did not wish to insult public opinion by his admigsion over the violated laws and constitution of Louisiana. Now, when his vote is needed, the republiecan majority is too weak to' admit him. . His devoted’ champion, Senator Morton; cannot muster a partisan majority in faver of his admission. Eonsrlit i

A PENNSYLVANIA exchange is of opinion that thie joint proposition of President Grant gnd ex-Speakerßlaine, to amend the federal constitution so as to forever guard against the perversion of the school fund for sectarian purposes, “is inspired by'thé same fell spirit which instigated- the church burnings of 1844, and the secret Know Nothing ‘orggnizations of ten years later. There is not the slightest danger of a teaction in favor of church domination in this country..” If the early colonies grew out of their traditional attachment to church! authority and church establishment, if is not likely that the people will again submit to that kind of discipline. Such is not the tendency of the age. If danger to the political or educational institutions of the country ever should arise, their defenders will not be found among‘the r'niserablel bigots and dem‘agogues‘w&h() are filling the air with their noisy bellowings about the schools.” = = = < c

AT a religious meeting in Boston, a few days since, the mortifying spectacle of mingling politics with religious bodies was seen. Bishop Gilbert Haven, of the Methodist church, (the convention was composed of societies of this chureh,) made! a speech in. which he said that the public safety required that General Grant should be ‘re-nominated for a third term. This sentiment of the Bishop was unanimously: approved by the two hundred ministers present. We may then take it for granted that the Methodists of thdt section: are in favor of a third term. We hope our Methodist® brethren- of the west are not so joined to their idols.—Vincennes Sun.

Judging from the emphatic declarations of a number of prominent Methodist ministers throughout the country, Bishop Haven’s untimely and inappropriate suggestion meets with very little encouragement. Notoriety the Bishop has gained, hut public endorsement he cannot; obtain. The third term tallacy is too odious to enlist. the ‘active sympathy of any considerable portion of the clergy. - Eire

A GREAT LAND SWINDLE. - : v — 2 Thirty Millions’ worth of Missouri Lands Fraadulently Sold. St. Lovurs, December 13.—A stupendous land swindle has just been unearthed- in Southeastern Missouri. It appears that deeds to lands in Northern Arkansas and Southern Missouri have been forged for some years past, and that agencies for this work were established ir} Cincinnati, Pittsburg, Philadelphia, New York, and Manchester, England. Itis estimated that.deeds to over 12,000,000 acres of land have been disposed of, the valuation being $25,000,000 to $30,000,000.. The land operated upon is owned by non-residents, and as the records were mostly destroyed during Jfhe war the‘ring had every facility to carry out the enormous swindle. The deeds have been spld ‘all over the United States and England. The Grand Jury of Shannon county, Mo, have indicted Dr. Thomas K. Harmon, David 'S. Bingham and James T. Lawton for complicity in the fraud. Lawton seems to have been the leader of the swindlers and operated extensively in England. : . S — & @ G— !

THE PRESIDENT'S BLUNDER.

Piens Comments .jn Mr. Headerson's : _ Dismissal. The President has not done a wise thing in removing Mr. Henderson, Assistant Government Counsel in the prosecution of the whisky cases at St. Louis. Mr. Henderson is an aecomplished lawyer, and is thoroughly acquainted with the proceedings of the wlrisky ring. His offense was using language in an argument which.reflected on the President. This’ may have been very unjust, but the President eould well have afforded to overlook it. ‘The remoyal of Mr. Henderson while in the full tide of successfully prosecuting the whisky thieves is ill-timed and ill-advised.—lndian-apolis Journal (Rep.). | e

~The President is determined to “let no guilty man escape.” Ex-Senator Henderson was employed as special counsel to assist Mr. Dyer, United States Attorney at St. Louis, in the prosecution of ‘the whisky cases. In this professional capacity the Ex-Sen-ator took. occasion:to allude to the President in terms regarded as /distespectful by the Administration. Mi. Henderson is accordingly discharged from further serviee. As Mr. Henderson was employed by the. Ggvernment, and as his employment was subject to the sanction of the President, his remarks were undoubtedly unprofegsional. IHe was talking against his client. But this fact does not militate against the truth of what he said. He was unquestionably as fully entitled to the discharge as the President to his ecriticisms.—Cincinnati Enquirer. , : v

The main topic of comment continues to. be Grant’s interference to save Babcock. Granting that Henderson’s speech was. uncailed-fér, nearly every prominent Republican in Congress, and several in the Cabinet, have been heard to characterize Grant’s action under all the circamstances as the most fatal blunder he ever committed.. This is the opinion of Bristow, Blaine, ‘Toster of Ohio, Morton, Jewell, ‘ex-Congressman Wilson, of Indiana, Senators Christiancy, McMillan, Wedleigh, Edmunds, Dawes, Frelinghuysen, and even Conkling. Hardly any Republican considers the action well advised, ;md‘most‘of them denounce it as being all the way from a bull-headed blunder to a stupid indecency.— Washington Dispatch. . ,

_ 1t is .a question who has a right to be considered the .worst friend of President ‘Grant. But there can be no question that he is his own worst enemy. Ilis interference, to remoye the efficient counsel who has brought one whisky thief after another to conviction. in St.' Louis; based upon the alleged use by that counsel of language disrespectful ‘to himself, will do more not only to prejudice the public opinion of the coundry against his private secretary, but to disseminate among inconsiderate people a strong impression of his own complicity in these matters, than any or than all other things that have occurred since-these trials began. It is difficult to understand how Secretary Bristow can reconcile it with his own self-respect to remain in the Cabinet after this removal has been forced upon him, It is impossible to understand how he or any of President Grant’s advisers ' can reconcile their acquiescence in it with respect for the President or care for his good name. —N. Y. World. ;i e

The Democracy and X(fin-Sectal‘ia’h 7 el ' Sehools. : - A special from’, Washington says that the Democrats are generally accepting the idea that th\ey should fall ‘in with the President’s suggestion of a constitutional amendment prohibiting the stpport of sectarian schools with public money, and at a ‘meeting of the democratic asséciation of the District of Columbia last’ Saturday night, the first step -toward such a movement was taken by the introduetion of resolutions stating that the free “school system of the United States is the brightest star in the galaxy of the republic, and that -on its maintenance and perpetuity . depend the present and future of the American people; that the democratic party always hds, and at all times hereafter: will resist-all attempts looking to a‘ division of the publie school fund, no matter for what purpose; that the democratic party has been, now is, ‘and always will be, in favor of free ~schools; a free press, free speech, free trade, and gold and silver as the only constitutional money of the nation, ‘paper money being the illegitimate. offspring of the republican party. It (is well-known ‘to the nation at large that the only fatal blow ever attempted to be struck at the free schools of this country was by the republican party in Congress, when it endeavored to mix white and black children in the same schools; that no State shall | muke any law respecting an establish~ment of any religion or fimhiblting the free exercise thereof, and that no’ money raised by taxation for the support of the public schools or derived, from -‘any public fund therefor shall ever be under the control of any religious sect, nor shall any money so raised ever be divided between the religious sects or denominations. - e ] < P— ' INDEPENDENT STATE CONVEN- | TION. s i The People to be Heard.

" By a decision of the Sapreme Court, it is 'made to appear that an ihdictment for giving intoxicating liquor to a person in the habit of getting intoxicated, will not be sustained by evidencé that what was called - “lagér beer,” was given. . :

A rumor that the Directors of the Western Union Telegraph Company had decided to redice the salaries of their employes upon a sliding scale, from five to. twenty-five per cent., has created a great deal of excitement among the operators all over the country. . ' ] i

- Five hundred and sevenfyw’ess’:el_s entered Michigan City harbor (luri}llg the past season, and the lumber traflic at that point hasigrown to be something immense, and is still increasing. That larbor is now an undoubted success, and together with their fine railroad ifl;terests‘ and other advantages will be the final redemption of the place. o

A man found a stranger in bed swith his wife the -other day, but instead of shooting the intruder, or getting drunk, or going crazy over the matter, he invited his wife and her new bedfellow to accompany -him to a lawyer’s office, where his wife’s honor was preserved and his'own dighity maintained'by the payment to him of $lOO, for which amouiit he promptly receipted to the stranger. .The: latter gazed in dismay, while the husband and wife left the scene, chuckling no doubt at the success of their little game.—FK7kthart Observer. : g i

Indianapolis seems to beqa very desirable residence for counterfeiters. A pair of these .currency-expanders were released on their ownrecognizance; recently, by Judge Greshaim, whose reason for the singular proceeding was that he believed the laws do not authorize the imprisonment of that class of offenders in the county jail. He hopes that Congress may remedy this defect, and people who have suffered from the operations of such scamps: will be apt to join in the judge’s prayer with some fervency. Supplementary to our report, last week, of the burning of two hunian beings in “the cell” on the Elkhart .county Poor Farm, we reproduee the following from*the Auburn Courier: Mrs. Shrader; wife of Chas. Shrader, of this place, who has been'insane for two years back, ran ‘away from home" about two months ago, and was taken up by the people of Elkhart county and placed in the, poor-house. The superintendent of the Poor Farm sent word to this place immediately after she came there, but no one seemed at all interested and consequeuntly she has remained there since. Yesterday we learned from her relations here that the poor-house was!/burned and it was impessible to get her from the building. Her cries were heard until the roof fell in, and then she suffered the terrible death ofburning. .- - - % 5 Pl e ¢ Secretary Bristow’s Report. The report of Gen. Bristow, Secretary of the Treasury,shows that the total ‘net receipts of the year were $288,000,051.10, which added to: the balance in. the treasury June 30, 1874, of $150,731,694.63, made the available cash $438,%»731,745.‘73.. The disbursements of the. year amounted to $294029,329.32, leaving a balance in the treasury of $144,702,416.41. The receipts exceeded the estimate of the secretary, and the expenditures fell below it. For the first quarter of the year- ending . June 30, 1876, the receipts hafig‘been $81,156,145.14, ‘and the expen®fitures $84,047,543.76. During the remuaining three-quarters;of the year the revenues after deducting what is required for the sinking fund, will fall short $3,285,090.94. (For the suggeeding year the secretary estima.tes#reven,ue -of “$304,000,000 and an expenditure of -$269,265,000. -~ The reduction of the publie debt during the year amounted to $%14,399,514.84, and the debt itself foots up the total of $2,128,688,726.82. During the year there has‘been an apparent deficit in the gmount applied to the sinking fund. National bonds toithe amount.of $500,000,000, bearing interest at six per cent., have been refunded at five per cent. and the secretary suggests the possibility of refunding the Fainder of the six per cents. Mr, Bristow makes a long argument in favor-of the resumption of specie payments, showing that, according to the terms of the legal tender act and its' construetion by the: supreme court redemption in coin is contemplated. Resumption without further legislation he considers difficult, and therefore suggests the retirement of a number of legal tender notes by the issue of four per ceént. bonds. Up to November 1, 1875, 2,307 national banks had been organized, of which 2,087 were doing.business in October last. - The aggregate capital of these banks was $504,829,769 ; circulation, $318,350,379; deposits, $664,579,619 and loans, $980,%22.951. The amount of accommodation paper out October 1 was less than usual. = The rate of interest in New York for the six months ending October 31, 1875, was 2.6 per cent. on call loans and 5.1 per cent. on commercial paper. The issue of silver ¢oinage to take the place of fractional currency the secretary regards as useless so long as the premium on gold remains. _at its present figure. The effect of the incredse in duties made last Mareh it is ‘difficult to determine. . Thus far the result has been a decrease in rev--enue, especially in such as is derived from iron and wool. The secretary suggests a consolidation of customs districts as a measure of reform, and a simplification of the tarift. -He ulse | asks for the reimposition of the duty on sugar and coffee. Alluding to the - whisky ring, Mr. Bristow declares that ‘honesty and capacity in the custom _house and revenue offices would be great sources of income. 'The exports ‘of the last fiscal year were .valued at $513,442,711 ; the imports of $583,005,1000. 'The excess of the export of gold ‘over the amount imported was $71,mmmefi&ffim%flm ‘matters connected with his department at great length, the secretary @w%@%%m&fiw@ e 7 'sw’ ;;4‘ ’s,‘7\‘:"“&' ‘%3\2«l‘?’%‘Vé‘;»f&é‘%fi‘%‘?flffi%flz&%

CASTORIA.

It is a mistake to suppose that Castoria isnot adapted te groyv'ngpe_rioua as well as children.— Theéy only need #o increase the quantity. But children have so many complaints for which Castotia is adapted —like Wind Colie, Sour Stomach, Worms, Tetter, Teething and Cmnp_,'th_flt_ it is especially recommeénded for them: ¥ : Its effects are more certain than Castor Oil, It climtgihs; no alcohol and is as pleasant to takeas honey. Itnever gripes. By regulating the stomach and bowels the Castoria cocls the blood, expels worms and prevents feverishness, quiets the nerves and produces health—theh of course children car sieep in quibt aud mothe¥s can rest, : %

~ Castoria is recommended by all physicians and nurses who have tried it, and:it is having 4 rapidly increasing sale. It is prepared with great cave after thé recipe of Dr. Samuel Pitcher, of Mass., at the Laboratory of J. B. Rose & Co., 46 Dey Street, New York. : ch qr-Iy-3¢-te
