. SPEAKER ‘KERE has - addressed 'a letter to J. H. Reall, of Philadelphia, declining to permit his namg.-»?*bg used in connection witlht the National ticketi this y%ar, and giving his adherance to' the clainms of Governor Hendricks as Indiana’s choice for the Presideney. The letter was not designed, for.publication, and Mr. Kerr is nnderstbod tohe somewhat annoyed at the use made of a private letter.

It 1s REPORTED from Washington that @ one-armed man, attending one of the gallery doors: in the House of Representatives, was asked a few days . 'since if he was one of those Confeder+ates who displaced a crippled Union soldier. “No, sir,”The replied, “I was - in the Union‘army and lost that at . “Shiléh,” pointing to his émpty sleeve. - <A Cenfederate, appointed by .the Re- * publicans of the last Congress, was removed to give me the place.y ' -

- DAX VOoRrRHEES was McKee’s prineipal counsel in the ‘famous crooked whisky trial. According to all accounts, Dailiel delivered himself of a rousing speech. J. B. McCullagh;, MeKee's managing editor, thus telegraphed the Terre Haute Sunday Expyess: “The Wibash wins the ribbons for argument and eloquence. Voorhees’s speech in the McKee case to-day equals anything that the schoolbooks tell us of Curran in Ireland, Brougham in England, and Webster, Prentiss and-Choate in America. |lt was a cavalry charge set to the music of impassioned oratory. “All honor to.the littlé city of Terre Hauté” Notwithstanding all this, the jury concluded that Mr. McKee had better serve a term in the penitentiary. e

. TaLk about “democratic sympathy” for Jeff Davis! Could a more emphatic refutation of the charge be desired than this emphatic declaration /by the Lebanon (Ind.) Pioneer of last - week? Listen: “The Patriot also says that Jefferson Davis should have - heen hung. We think so,too,and why _ - did you not hang him? The soldiers * .exppcted it, the rebels expected it, ! -nm himself expected it; and the democratic party is not responsible ; for this error, . Davis an¢ a hundred \ others should have paid the penalty .. on the gibbet. . Widows and orphans - jeried aloud for vengeance. ' The in- " valid and maimed. soldier asked for : their éxecution.. The hope of a great government demanded it.” It wen't take many such fiery blasts from dem- * ‘ocratic organms to dry up republican _ twaddle about democratic sympathy * for Jeff Davis. Well donke, Bro. Haret e

CONCERNING the probable action of Congress on the finance question, Mr. Josephi O’Connor writes to the World : The main body of the Republicans . will probably defend the Resumption act of last year and advocate the bill presented by Hale, of Maine, for car rying out the policy laid down in that. measure. It is not yet entirely safe to say what will be the policy of thé main body of the. Democrats, but ev_erything looks well for sound measures. As a practical matter affecting the financial prospects of the country 3t is of little importance what they decide, since their action is subject to review by a Qostile Senate and-expos-“ed to the President’s veto. ' Their condauct! is, therefore, to be considered ‘mainly as affecting, their recofd and determining their attitude before the ‘eountry daring the coming Presidential canvass. With such a fair oppor.tunity for doing what is right at little risk, it would be -inconceivable folly. .on their part to make a blunder. ..

- REVISION OF THE TARIFF. = '{ When Speaker Kerr desigriated Col. Morrison as chairman of the committee of Ways and Means—the most important committee of the Houserthere were many who questioned tl;tie propriety .of the appointment upon the ground of Mr. Morrison’s sup_p_oé@d inexperience and his lack of “prominenee” as a congressional “leade-,fl’ Becayse Mr.- Morrison had not made much display during former sessions of Congress, by way of useless oratory and unavailable. motions, it was- asumed that he was urqualified for the responsible position to which he had been assigned. ~[THE BANNER commended the selection, confident that a man of Speaker Xeir’s great experience and profound knowledge of men -would not commit a blunder in amat‘ter of such transcendent importance.

In addition to this consideration, Col. Morrison’s speeches during the canvass of 1874 revealed a high order.of sound, practical sense, and furnished ample proof of his eminent fitness to devisé a judicious system of national législation. e -~ While ‘such “leaders” as Randall, Cox,and Blaine have wasted time in a useless and mischievous -debate on lamnesty, Jeff. Davis and -Andersonville, Col. Morrison has quietly and industriously applied himself. to ‘the .-'i}n‘(:lstigfi‘tion of s‘up'je‘cts in \'&/lxi:éll the people gre deeply and v?;ally‘.interést-, ed. Calling to his assistance that eminent political e_éon'omisf, David -A. Wells, he has prepared a revised, reduced and simplified tariff bill,:the essential points of which are thus indicated by the Chicago Tritune: (1)

The {r'eé list is largely extended on ] raw materials, such as drugs, cheniicidls, dyes, eic., whereby manut‘adtur--‘ ers are.eénabled to produce cheaper | goods. (2) On pretty much all man- | ufactures the tax on consumers is reduced a general average of about onethird. - 'The duties ljow range from 40 to 60 pel_; cent.; undet the I'éfbl'lned tariff -they will range from 25/to 40 per cent. This reduétibn 'is,‘.quite{ moderate under the ‘cil_'cu_msfancgs,-!, (3) A purely- revenue ‘impost of 4 | cents a pound on coffee and 10 cents’a pound on tea is proposed te be levied, i which is in accordance withrthe strong recomimendations of »the President “and‘Secretary of the Treasary. " The | former tax on.those articles) Was, 6 cents a pound on ‘coffee and 12 cents on tea. Secretary Bristow explained l‘ how the Government -l_mfs‘;lost:’tw,elv,e <‘ to fifteen millions a year' of revenue by "the repeal of. the duties in 1872 without conferring any benefit oh the _consumers, because foreign” Govern‘ments inereased the export tax on tea { and coffee to correspond with the reduction ef import tax by our Government. Thebill greatly simplifies the mode of estimating the new duties on a_great .many articles.'. i\\’herew‘er. weight canrbe-substituted for valuation“it is done: The object is to prei vent frauds by undervaluations, false invoices, adulterations, and cheating generally. In this way the duties “will be far more honestly and cheaply collected.. | . - i The bill was in‘t’rodu\ced in the House last Monday.. While monopolists and extreme protectionists, as-a matter of ‘course, are boisterously hostile to its provisions, revemie reformers of all shades concede it to be a vast improve‘ment on the present ¢ppressive and -unjust system and scale of duties. Mr. Morrison’s task in framing the «Dbill i was not an easy one. In the language of the’ World, he “has to vcmfs’ider, first, the duty of raising revénue; second, the duty of raising it in the best possible ‘manner. ~_Wei'efiflle Senate democratic, his task might be easier. As it is; he must be first governed by a sound, judgment as to what reforms the Senate can be induced to consent to. Ile cannot wisely be governed by the purpose of making his -scheme comprise all possible reforms; Tor can the practical statesman ever disregard the fact that all possible reforms, can meither be accomplished lall-together nor at once.” . It can scarcely be expected that_partisanship will be sufficiently abjured in the consideration of 'th;‘is question. so as to prompt action solely upon the merits of the measu‘ref;‘ yet there arereasons to believe that both Houses will promptly ratify. Mr. Morrison’s noble - work. ~ “Its enactment,” the Chicago 7ribune: with commendable candor says, “will powerfully tend to revive manu'facturixig ir_ndus-try by cheapening the cost of production, and thereby enablin g our manufactuy- | ers to export their surplus goods to foreign countries. We can have no ‘real or reliable improvement in the times until this be done; nor is it possible to resume specie payments until we largely increaseour exportation of . manufactures.” = | it R

One of the recent appointees of the party in power at. Washington, seven years atter the assassination of Abraham Tsincoln, christened his own son with the murderer’s name. [n regard to this, as conservative a paper as the New York 7ribune says: **Mr. Morrison, neither you, nor your spe’ak'eg, nor your party can affgrd to appoint to office a-man who seven years after ‘Mr. Lincoln’s murder christened his own son with the murderer’s name.”

' We clip the above from last week’s Albion New E7a. The gentleman referred to is Dr: Hamilton, clerk of the | committee of Ways and Means, whom some malicious driveler had accused of naming one of his children John Wilkes Booth. This malicious. fabrication having obtaihed extensive circutation, an authoritative contradiction was finally deemed essential to the vindication of eternal truth. The child in question had ‘been named simply John \\’flkes, Aafter an uncle. _Before the Era<gave publicity to its item, the N. Y. Tribune had made the following amende, a repetition of which now devolves upon the Era: _ “Mr. Morrisson’s clerk of the Committee of Ways and Means has entered at last a denial of the report which has been eurrent for some time in Washington and through the press of the country, and had ecome to be gen_erally believed, that he had christened ‘ason by the name of John Wilkes Booth. - It appears that he only gave g{s son the name of John Wilkes, and ‘that the addition of Booth was made in what we must regard as a rather geMyveinofijYhy his neighmWsamm&mr the contra%@mfiw elieve that such base-

- As afirm' believer ifn the doctrine that no guilty man should escape; THE 1 BaxNER takes pleasure in stating that the St. Louis court has given additional evidence of its determination to deal out equal and exact justice to all men implicated in the perpetrdtion of frauds upon the government. In the case of William McKee, senior proprietor of the St. Louis Globe-Demi-ocrat, whose trial on the charge of complicity in thé egormous whiskyfrauds has attracted widespread attention and interest during _the" past two weeks, the jury on .I\lofxdzty les turned a verdict of “Guilty” of t-hé offense charged in the indictment. The defense was conducted with extraordinary vigor .n_nfd' ability, though tire. impression wus. quiteg?general among ‘the friends and well-wishers, of Mr. McKee that a grave error was committed by his eounsel in éntering a demurrer (to the iindictn,lentf"upml a point .purely - technical - and wiuflly apart from the merits of the case. The verdict of »the:jury was wholly ‘unexpected by Mr. McKee and his council and friends, who had confi“dently relied upon either a disagree‘ment of thg jury ora verdict of ac‘quittal. Great excitement prevailed | in St. Louis, public sympathy seem- \ ingly running largely in McKee’s favor. Mr. . McKee'is a man of great \ wealth and of considerable personal | popularity. It i 8 tb be regretted that i a man of his previous character and standing should have iso yielded to t temptatipn as to become a party to the rascallyfrauds perpetrated against l' the government. ' A term of several years in the penitentiary may serve to l remind him that ?1011esty ls after all | the best policy. | .

A Long-Hidden Murderer is Discovel ‘ | ered. : Fioe _John Cunningham, who is at present under sentence at the Cleveland work-house, .is suspected of having murdered a woman at. Phillipsburg, N. J., some -years ago. Previous to his arrest, it is said, Cunningham frequently quarreled with his wife and daughter, “and . during one of these quarrels the wife was overheard accusing him of having murdered a woman. = The detectives, acting on this clue, succeeded in éliciting reluctant and partial statements from both the wifeand daughter. The wifeacknowledged to having assisted ~her husband in getting away after the deed had been committed.. Cunningham, on being questioned concerning the myrder, manifested.his feelings in such a manner as to indicate that he is familiar with its circumstances. Officers from Phillipsburg arrived at Cleveland last Friday to investigate the case.

At Indianapolis, last Tuesday, sentence was passed by Judge Gresham, of the United States Court, upon a bateh of whisky-ringsters, who were given terms of imprisonment ranging from three years down to six months, with fines similarly graded. Some of the convicted officials invoked judicial leniency on the score of pfevious services as soldiérs in the Union army, but the Court, so far from discovering any extennating circumstances in this fact, took the ground that the erimes were aggravated instead, as the offenders were paid by the Government to detect the frauds in which they participated,—to prevent that which.they had abetted and encouraged. The convicted Supervisor, though asseverating his innocence to the last, was Pronounced the guiltiest of the lot, and received the heaviest penalty.

Another evidence of the steady growth of American manufactyres is found in the fact that the agent of the Bordeg City Mills, of Fall River, Massachusetts, who has just returned from England, reports/finding a better market there than in this country, and has made arrangements for shipping regularly twenty-five thousand pieces a week to that market,, It is such facts as this that are making the English manunfacturers -squeal for a protective tariff, i Another sickening tale of horror comes from Cleveland, O.

.STATE POLITICS. The Floyd eounty Republicans have declared for Morton for President. Tn-Bartholomew county candidates for local offices are already announcing ‘their readiness to gather in the loaves and fishes. = * - h The absurd proposition to make Frank Landers a candidate for Governor is very generally discountenaneced by the democyatic press.

~ Ex-Auditor of Sfate Wildman is now proposed for chairman of the Republican State Central Committee. Jim is not a slouch at such business. The Mishawaka Enterprise wants Ben Harrison for. Governor, and ‘Colfax for President. -It has no objection, however, to Morton for the latter posi\tion. o : The lebanon Pionerr, ihe Benton county Democrat, and the Goshen Democrat have hoisted this ticket: TFor President, Thomas A. Hendricks. For Vice President, Andrew G. C-Lirti_n. Mr. Simon Hirseh, the classical editor of the Clay County Deutsche Zeitung, enjoys the distinction of being the only soft money advocate ;amé)_ng the ,enktire Ger‘max} new’spaper fraternity of Indiana: : 7 The. Bartholomew County Democrat has reached the conclusion.that since Judge Holman peyemptorily refuses to entertain gubernatorial-advances, the Demoecracy cannot do better than to assign Judge Geo. A, Bicknell, of New Albany, to that post of honor. The Columbus Demoerat recognizes in Elijah S. Al\fm'd, of Indianapolis, the right sort of man to be placed at the head of the Democratic State Central Committee. Father Alvord has the requisite experience, shrewdness, and stamps to render. himself useful in that line of duty. : 3

If the present ‘Attofney-Geneml,' Buskirk, is to be retired, as proposed by a number of democratic papers, the Deémoetacy ‘could not'do a more creditable thing than to nominate Sol. Claypool—a man of fine legal attainments, -of staunch integrity, and of unquestioned honesty.. -~ "A desperate effort is being made in LiPorte county to retrieve thé lost fortunes of the republican party by a conspicuous display of the *bloody shirt.” .Major Calkins, whose congressional aspirations were ruthlessly interfered with in 1874, is at the head of this gory movement. ST ~ The Columbus Democrat evidently has n’t forgotten the era of cat-skin-ning, if 'we may be permitted to judge from the following: “ We see that R. "J. Bright is spoken of as a candidate for the chaifmanship of the Democratic State Central Committee. The demoecratic party of Indiana is not quite ready to commit hari-kari, 2 The Independents, who hold their State ‘Convention about the middie of this -month, will probalily nominate James Buchanan or Frank Landers for Governor. The former;is working like a beaver to organize greenback clubs:all over the State. Tlleis most successful in localities where the subject of finance is least undérstood.

= The LaPorte Herald sees no reason why Godlove S. Orth, our minister to Vienna, would not i}l;i.ke about as strong a candidate gfimlr Governor as the Republicans could nominate. The Herald thinks Orth’s ability to converse fluently in the German language would he of great advantage during the canvass.: Yes, come to think of it, it would be quite “bandy” for Mr. Orth to explain in faultless German what possessed him to become a rabid Know-Nothing about the year 1854. Judge Gresham, in the United States ‘Court, at Indianapolis, the other week very justly rebuked an attempt made to prejudice a case on trial “before him, by showing that one of the witnesses was in the Confederate army. lie does not believe that because a man ‘'wore ‘t.he gray that lie is bound to commit perjury. This just shows the difference between a brave soldier and a truckling politician. = Judge Gresham was a . brave soldier, and has generous spirit toward the misguided soldiers of the South. |

Itis ru mored that Gen. TOmßrowne{ whom the temperance ‘Republicans defeated' for Governor in 1872, has yielded sufficiently to the entreatges of his friends to encourage the hope that he will accept a nomination for Congress @n the Distriet now represented by the invineible Holman. Teom was President of the _éonventi_on which nominated ITolman’s competitor in '74, and in his speech fo_n that occasion declared that if Claypool did not lay Holman on the shelf, a courtmartial should be convened to condemn the derelict candidate to death. Well, HHoiman had semething over 2,000 votes to spare, but we have not heaid of Claypool being shot. The question now is, wiil Tom' make the race with the same conditions hanging over his head that were imposed upon poor Claypool ? ! .

SDO s . Great Damage Done on the Borders . of the Ohio. : " ¢ LOUISVILLE, Kv., Jan. 20.—The.recent flood from the Ohio has overfiown in and around Louisville, New Albany, Jeffersonville and Southern Indiana, and is great and most damaging. The Ohio ceased swelling last night, and this evening is receding slowly. The absence of a flood-gate at the outlet of the creek in: Louisville allowed a large quantity of water from the river to rush in. . In parts of the ecity, yards, cellars, and ‘lower stories of houses, and even the shops, were filled with water, but no loss of life or serious damage to property has occurred. In Sputhern Indiana the flood caused considerable damage to private property, and on the Ohio & Mississippi and Louisville & Indianapolis Railroads passengers from Chjcago have been taken over circuitous routes, go“ing first to Mitchell, thence to Jeffersonyville, thence to North Vernon, and from there to Cincinnati, The most serious washawayon the Louisville & Indianapolis Road is between.

| CENTENNIAL EXCURSION. bLlsérvafipns ot The Bainer Representativé at ~ - Philadelphia, Néw York and Washoi ' ' To the Hditor of The National Banner: - In my last communication, written at Philadelphia, 1 indicated thit we, as a party, intended visiting New Y ork and Washington cities before returning home, and which we did. At New York we stopped at the Fifth Avenue Hotel, which is equal in every way to the Colonnade, of Philadelphia. At both these houses our every reasonable want was bountifully supplied, and all sweetened Py the smiling countenances of the proprietors and attendants. At New York we spent two days sight-seeing. To one unaccuistomed to winding their way

through the intricate passages of a large city like. New York, thereisa sense of insecurity which pervades the mind that mai's the actual enjoyment of sight-seeing to a moderate degree; not that we were afraid of getting lost, though we confess we did not at all times know just where we were or what object ab‘s}brbed our attention. In a ity of this size' there are attractions to'shit the taste of every individual, from .those who occupy the lowest walks of life to those in the highest and most prominent public posml;ns‘. " “Although it rained mostof the time while we were in the great i American metropolis, the editorial party made the most of it and v'isiCed‘! many ‘- places of attraction, among which were Rast Park, Harper & Brothers’ publishing house, and AT Stewart’s retail store. with its thirteen hundred clerks. East River was then crossed, at Fulton Ferry, and Brooklyn inspected. lere are many fine | public buildings to interest the sightseer. We were surprised as welk as gratified at the plain external appearance of Plymouth Chureh. This building is 120 feet long, 80 wide and 40 high'; ‘is built of brick and situated in the heart of the residence portion of the eity. It has no téwer, or steeple, and it is evident that the drchitect and builders had an eye single to convenience and comfort,. rather than to gaudy external appearances. Notwithstanding the unpleasantness of the weather and the shortness of Qm' stay'in New York city, we were amply paid for the time spent thete. We left New York on Thursday, January 20th, at 12 o’clock, and arrived”in Washington in the evening. Heresour party was divided, some being quartered-at the Arlington House m;d others at the‘\\’il];‘n'dl—both firstclass hotels—whose managers seemed to vie with each other to see wlo could best entertain their portion of the exc‘ursion: party. In my last letter I said that we, as a party, were l well cared for at the Colonnade Hotel, in Philadelphia. So were we at New York, and also at Washington; and that you may see I am not exaggeriting (for to tell the truth seems alittle ] like fiction), I will give you a verbatim copy of the “bill of fare” for din- ' ner at New York:

I, like*Nebuchadnezzar, have given you the dream (bill of fare), but I do not think there are any like Belteshazzar who will be able to give the interpretation thereof, thouglyperhaps the expounder may be found in the person of the dauble-witted correspondent of the Chieago T'imes.. - But if such was the bill of fare, what do you think the fare itself was? lam sure that the most stupid gormandizer in all the editorial party could get a good, square meal and have sufficient, left for supper and breakfast, and in his best efiogts to deseribe it could only say that it was among. the indescribable things that is belter felt than told. ¥ :

On Friday morning President Grant gave us an audiénce, and we were introduced to His Exc‘ellefq’cy and lady, Mr. and Mrs. Fred Grant, Mrs; Morton and Mrs. John C. New, who assisted the President and lady in receiving their guests. We were very cordially received, the President, however, uttering Lut few words while the party were passing by and shaking bands with himself and lady. After passing through the whole House and seeing its internal arrangements, its furniture, and the green-house attached thereto, with its many blooming flowers,we were conducted to andthrough the entire Treasury Building, 4an"d §hown most satisfactorily its workings, - Hon. John' C. New 'bears his honors very modestly and is as courteous and genial a gentleman as one would desire to meet. Leaving this, we were conducted to the House. of Representatives and by unamimous consent allowed the privilege of the lower floor, where we had a fine opportunity of seéing Indiana’s most distinguished Representatives in Con-. gress. In the Seuate and House eulegles were ‘pronounced upon the life, clma}?};fifid public services of Hon.

‘full, or evéa pattial, description of which we cannot now give, but will only say that to be appreciated, it ‘must be seen.’ ; :

_ln the evening a reception was given the delegation at Willard’s Hall by the resident Indianians in Washington, which was a brilliant and successful affair. Senator McDonald presided and the Hon. O. P. Morton delivered the welcoming words. President Grant graced the occasion with his presence and delivered a speech, which, for brevity, -we never heard excelled. Short'and appropriate ‘l'emilrks iwere made by most all of JTudiana’s Congressmen, ‘fi'nd among whom our-own Congressman, Hon. J. H.
