Morton and Schurr. In the present campaign Senator Morton and the Hon. Carl Sechurz'represent two distinct elements in the republican party. Mr. 'Morton is the leading exponent of Grantism—of the spirit and sentiment which have ruled the party "and controlled the government fgr.t,hg past eight years. Mr. Schurz, on the contrary, embodies the tendencies to l‘efogjnl, retrenchment and economy which have occasionally manifested tliemselves, only to be extinguished by the opposing element. It is well to contrast the pleas put forth by these distinguished gentle-’ men in their advocacy of Hayes’ election. Mr. Morton, in arecent speech, uttered the following words: G “ So-far from official morals deteriorating, the public service becoming debauching, and the country standing on the brink of ruin, I pronounce this and :all kindred statements which make up the body and trimmings of democratic platforms and speeches, to be unmitigated bosh and demagoguery, andthat the very opposite is the truth. The truth is, that although defalcations and mlefeasances sometimes occur, and- always: will, there is more official integrity, the revenues are more faithfully collected, and the public service better performed, than at any former periods’ ‘ Carl Schurz, on the contrary,in a late speech, said: .§* . ' “ One great meriég(}én. Grant’s administration may c¢laim. It has demonstrated the vicfous tendencies of our present civil service system so strongly that even ‘the dullest. mind must perceive them. We have clearly séen how this system will endanger the integrity of good men by its temptations, and stimulate bad men only to become worse. We have been foreibly made aware of the necessity not only of a change, but. of a thorough and lasting change, and that such a thorough change c:t&mot be put off much longer without danger.”
-~ Thus, says the IFort Wayne Sentinel, we find Morton and Schurz as completely at variance as they wgr'je.'four years ago, upon the one essential point of the campaigh. Mr. Morton tells us that the administration of Gen. Grant is the purest we have ever had, and we all know that ig-false. Mr. Schurz says it is tlie most corrum', in our history, and we all know that is true. Mr. Morton asserts that we already have pure government, and therefore says that we should keep the republican party in power.” If his premises were correct, his' conclusions are’ certainly logically drawn. Mr. Schurz, howevyer, says that we now liave a rotten, corrupt, profligate administration, and argues that we shall keep ithe samé element in power, in order to improve the aspect of affairs. In other words, Logan, Morton, Chandler, Cameron, Carpenter, Spencer; Butler and Conkling, have well nigh ruin--ed the country, with Grant as President. Now, fellow-citizens, let us elect Hdyes in order thiat Morton, Logan, Chandler, Cameron, Spencer, Butler and Conkling may reform the government, / e
The total loss to the Government from defaleations by Republican officials. from 1863 to June 19, 1876, aggregates $5,2000,595.93, or nearly a million dollars a year. Reform is necessary. T =
Gen. -Kilpatrick publicly confessed } in a speech at Indianapolis the other week that he wrote that letter to Goy. Hayes, of Ohio, calling upon the Republican National. Committee for money, or Indiana was lost. - The “bloody shirt” must be flaunted in the eyes of democratic soldiers, and money used to buy up the “greenback party,” orall is lost, cries Gen. Kilpat rick. This corrupt proposal comes from a Hayes stumper in Tndiana and is indited to the nominee of the republiean part, . osaiar )
A NIGHT OF TERROR.
We lived in Easterbrook, in a little ‘cottage near Cary’s woods. My mother had been deal for years, and my grandmother tosk care of me. She was not a very old woman, but feeble, having suffered’ from some organic disease all ber life. I was very fond of her. . - S ;
My father always seemed to me one of the noblest men thateverlived. He was in humble ‘lircumstances, only a _porter in a large mercantile firm; but everybody trustel him,he was so honest, and capable ind good. : I was nearly eleven years old, when my father came home one day with a bundle in Lis hand. Ile seemed very much elated, and his dark eyes shone with pleasure as he told grandmother how much confidence the firm for whom he worked reposed in him. “They havegiven me sl,ooo.in gold to carry up to Bristow,to-morrow,” he said, as he setithe heavy package on the kitchen table. *“l warrant you hever saw so much momey in your life, “r{lgther,’f he added‘ as she came to his side. } ‘
“I am ‘certain I wever - did,” said grandmother, thuching tlie edge of the bog. = “I'hould be nervons. if it was going to be here long.” ' “Only te-night we can fancy we are rich, for at nine to-morrow I start off, and I think'T’ll-take little Tom with me.” - i B
“QOh, father,” I cried in ecstacy. 1 had never beéen to Biristov.bubfoncein my life, and then the visit had been one of unalloyed pleasure. “Yes. I think I'll harness old Dob for the boy, instead of going horseback by myself, Now we must find a safe place for the money.” : “Put | it. b¢hind my pillow,” said grandmother. ‘But,then,indeed, who would know 'it? Nobody will ever come here to reb us.” .
“No, unless Itun off withif myself,” he said, laughing. % : %0, Robert, don't ever speak! of such a thing in joke!” exclaimed grandmother. i S
“But, my dear mother, think what a thousand dollars in gold would be to us. We could buy a farm out West, Ol'—-—” M Grandmother’s hand came down on the table. She was a little woman, but her brown eyes flashed, and ‘the dishes rattled as she said:
“Stop, Robert, stop! Do you remember that Tom is here ? and I dof’t want him to hear such words if. they atre only jesting.” = .. ; ; “Of course, of eourse, mother; I was very silly. . But come, we’ll settle the matter of hiding it at once, for I am going over to Jim’s to get his harness; mine is broken. And, Tom, remember, lad, that father would be burnt at the stake rather than keep one’ dollar that didn’t belong to him.” o I was very mueh impressed by this conversation, and spent a long . time building castles:in the air. That was my favorite employment when a boy, and I have not forgstten it yet.. T went outside our cottage,under the big maple, and my thoughts kept reverting to the fortune at that. moment hidden in the house behind my. grandmothet’s piilow. To me it seemed boundless. G o i
O, if I could only open the box and get a peep at the'yellow gold! I tried to imagine how it looked; what sort of bundles it was done up . in; and what grand things so much money ‘would . buy. The little cottage, that had always seemed so commonplace, had acquired a new importance. It was no longer the abode of poverty, but what seemed to .me great wealth.
From these reveries I was aroused by my father, who’came round from the stable with old Dob, the whitefaced horse, whom I remembered as a pony, on whose back I had been lifted when a tiny boy, wiile my sick mother sat near and smiled at my delight. “Lend a hand, Tom; go and bring ‘me my hat and the long whip,” said my father, preparing to- mount, I brought the desired articles. ; “Now, Tommy, don’t you stir from’ the house,” he added, all ready} to start; “and if ’'m not home by the: time the clock strikes nine, shut the doors and lock them, and go to bed. It’s a long distance, and I may be devained:” ol . o He rode: off, and I stood watching him, now in the sunlight and now .in the shadow, as the boughs ot the great trees opened or closed about him. Grandmother cleared off the supper table, and took her knitting outside of the door. Dear old lady, I ean see her now, the white, soft hair smoothly! banded across the white brow; her cap-strings stirred by {he pleasant wind, her hands deftly guiding the needles, the kitten at her feet, playing, ‘with the bali of blue yarn that had rolled from her lap. e ‘- She talked to mre that night of many things—things I have never forgotten —and referred constantly to my dead mother.. I think in her heart she was troubled at what my father had said, for fear it had in some way influenced e e ;
Présently, as the twilight eame on, she rolled up her yarn, laid aside her’ knitting, and we went into the cottage, It was not long before the cloek stiuck nine. ' Grandmother seemed reckless. I had never seen her in that state before. - She watehed from the window and the door eontinually, and said, repeatedly: - = “I wish'your father would come.— Some way, I ean’t bear to have him go to Jimisy y i i $
I knew the reason why. Though he was the best of fathers;he was not strictly a temperance man, and they made wine on the farm at uncle Jim’s, and had it in their cellar, very strong and old. A glass would upset father, and two make him very wild. ITe knew its effect, however, and that it invariably made him cross, so there was not muech danger,l thquglgt, though grandmother did worry so. - | At half-past nine I shut and locked the doors and windows, after listening a long time for the sound of the horse’s feet. I knew my father would rap on my window, when he came, and I also! waked easily, 50 I went to bed full of happy apticipatipns, and wasisoon sound asleep. = - S a
I-have no idea what time it was after that, when I suddenly started up in bed, wide awake, with g creeping liorror in my veins, such as T had never felt before. I was trembling’in every Limb, but instantly: my grandmother’s voice reagsured me, saying: “Is that you, Robert #” . ; “Y es, mother,” saida muffled voice outside. : : | Grandmother had lighted her candle; I heard her go through the little kitch~ en, and draw the bolts, ' i Then there was a strange noise, and the light was out. = Grandmother sereamed as if frightened. e “The money!” I heard him say. “Tell me where it is]” “00, Robert, what have you been doing?” my grandmother eried. “Arve you playing a trick on me? Haveyoy been drinking? You know the *niogby' is behind my pillow.” e ! Again the candle was lighte'é.,;fi heard the sharp scratch and explosio of a match, then there was another shriek, louder than the jugfqn_ i ?&fih; 2 e 3 e B bbb Rt S
and something heavy fell on tl;,é floor. ~ Whatever I am now, I was a coward
then, to the ends of my fingers. My grandmother’s convulsive shriek,“You, have killed me!” rang in my ears but one secohd, the next, my window was open, and I had let myself out and fled on the wings of terror.through the blackness of the night. S Sl How long I ran on, and on, and on, " like ‘the wind, 1 cannot tell. Some‘times I fancied that the mam who had. murdered my grandmother, the man I had honored and loved so dearly, was | on my.track. I seemed to see it all; 1 my father had been tempted to drink; he had taken something stronger than wine, and it had crazed him. The thought was so awful that,as.it came over me now and then, I-felt like fainting. My feet were seratched and torn, but I never knew the pain. The solemn sky, with its canopy of | stars, seemed to me like an open, yawning grave. My father,—my honorable father—to do a deed so shameful! My heart seemed bursting with its agony. The scalding tears ran down my face unwiped. I choked with sobs. Where should I.go? ‘ I had emergéd from the awful shadows of the woods. “The moon gave trees and landscapes an ‘unearthly, glimmering white as it'slowly rose.
There was the 'school house where I had been so happy. I could never .go there again. Father would be caught, —hung,—and through all my life the blight of the-murderer would be upon my name. g : :
I walked swiftly on, down the first rodd I came to. It was the highway, and led to my uncle Jim’s. To this dayr I cannot bring myself to walk that road. I seé myself, barefooted, hatless,—l had kept my trousers on? that I might rise and let my father in,
—NOoW running, now creeping over the rough way, frightened, struck with Irorror, and trembling with shame. . The gray tints of the coming morning! gathered in the sky.

Againl rose to my feet, and ran on. I was met with the dew, and, in my. anguish, the sweet scents of the wayside roses soothed me, though oncelor twice I
thought I was dying, the contraction of my throat was so terrible. i Suddenly a horseman came in sight. Through my tears T seemed to see the white face of old Dob. Nearer and nearer it came. I think I stood like one ‘turned to stone when my father’s familiar voice fell on my ear. = . ~ - “Is that Tommy? Tommy,is that yanghiooo o oy : The revulsion of feeling was too much for me. Tlreeled,and knew noth; ing more till I found myself in bed; weak and sick, and my father seated beside me. 2 . .
“My poor little fellow?” he said, pityingly ; and then 1 heard the strange story of that dreadful night. My father found his brother in great trouble. Two of the family had been 'taken down withr the scarlet fever, and his ;wife was away. So my father had re‘mained with him allynight. My uncle had a servant in his employ whom he had always considered trustworthy, and who must in some way have overheard my father speak of the money hidden in the house. i
It was a temptation the ihan could not withstand, when my fatheg sent him to notify his mother that he would not-return at all. .
I anr happy to add that the money was soon recovered, and the rogue thrown in prison. My grandmother, who was only shu'nned,wzf_s able to testify to his identity, and everything came to a happy ending, though to this day I think of that night’s trial with a shudder.—Mys..

Farmer Wiliams ‘rm-' Governor. 1t the gubernatorial chair of Indiana has ever been filled by a farmer, we don’t know when'it was. Heretofore both parties have invariably nominated lawyers for the position, requisite qualifications. But this year,thank: fortune, the democracy looked around for a farmer, and lo! and behold! ‘thely espied the tall form of “ Blue Jeans” Williams, a life-long tille of the soil, and promptly nominated him for Governor. He is a plain, practical, unassuming man,honest as the day’s long, economical by education-.and nature, with a head fuall of the very kind of' knowledge and wisdom needed in the chief executive officer of the State. The Republicans still: insist that only: lawyers ought tobe Governots, and therefore offer L.awyer larrison as their candidate. If the farmers go ‘back on old “Blue Jeans” this time, ‘there’s ‘mno telling when tltey wil} get ‘another chance to be r_epfesented in
the office of Governor. lis defeat would deter both parties in the future from looking through corn fields-and between two plow handles for the material out of ‘which to makea Govecnor. e :
'O"nly two years ago Gen. Ben. Harrison thought the war was: over and impressed his views on an audience ‘a% Danville to that effect. “He reminded his hearers that the war was ovet, that it was the first duty to restore the waste places, to forget the animosities engendered in the hour of strife, and to.join hands with the vanquishedfc‘)e in restoring prosperity ‘to . our common country. In the audience which listened to Gen. Harrison were men of all parties and all shades of opinion, and all applauded his “patriotic.”- But now gentlemen Ben.is the Republican candidate for Governor, and he waves the “bloody shirt” as valaintly as does Morton.. This is the only stock in trade with his party. \ On the living issues of to-day the' re‘publican -party is certain to go dow i\ ‘ It-is defeated unléss fighting the war over can save it.

THE BOYS IN BLUE ! '. ' s g e SISt g 4 3 3 Honor to Whom Honor is Dues Away With Partisan Discrimination. | . BUBLER, Ind., Sept. 27, 1876. - ~ Sixteen years ago' the sectionalism between the fanatics in the North,and the States-rights men of the South plunged this nation into a fearful and horrible war. It was a war of 'sec‘tional hate; a war in which slavery }, ‘was, the remote, but not the immediate cause. Men from all sections and of all parties responded to the call “to arms.” The young men of the North, and many silver-haired fathers, left their family altars to save their country by laying down their lives upon’ the shrine 'of their liberties. To them life-without honor, without freedom, ‘was of no consequence. It wasnota ~war of paf’ti'e‘s, as some would ha:ye‘_usr believe, for, in the noble army of ¢the ‘North, there were numbered Republi- | cans and Democrats, who fought side by side for one result. - They did not hesitate to fight for —one common: cause. Thesectionalism of party haté did not show itself between the republican and'democratic soldier of the’ North. Their motives were the maintenance of the Union. But now, that the Uhio(jn has been preserved by the blood of brave Democrats as, well as | Republicans, the 'republican leaders deny honor to the democratic soldiers by questioning their loyalty and éven | their valor during the war. A/ few days ago that party of “high- moral ideas” called a soldiers’ reunion to be held at Fndianapolis. It wasthought| t 6 be a nnion in common for all soldiers, of aI% parties ; areunion forithe’ ‘purpose of renewing old friendship ‘and memories of the past; a reunion | of sentiment that inspires patriotism and love of liberty, was expecfed,’ but net, areunion for the purpose .of infusing into the breasts of. the soldiers | -present thé'fire of hatred and strife that blazéd so fiercely sixteen years ago. It .was nof supposed that mens who fought for a united country would -call a meeting of Its surviving soldiery to . kindle angw the sectional hates that sweep them into the vortex of a most fierce and gigantic war; a ’sec_:-' tionalism that arrayed brothers, fathers and sons in arms Aagain&_ each other; a sectionalism poisoned with the most deadly virus. For four years: the clashing of arms was felt in every household in the land.: The fdged father and mother had sent their only son to maintain’ their country’s honor at the cost of his life, if need be. To wipe from the Union that deadly p"é)ii,son that plunged us into a grei‘it-__ war, by which hundreds and thogsands of homes were robbed of all most dear and precious,we toiled four long years. The seefional agitators that kindled the almost unquerchable. fire, /“"i;er_e ‘not to be séen in the front. Between them and the storm of shot and shell stood the formidable wall of soldiery of the land, shielding their homes from the dreadful carnage of war and prostrated liberty. The ,sacrifice. of thousands — brave boys" of both partiesf—were demanded ’ere the coun-. try’s valor, and its Union, was pronounced a_'éuccess. ‘They.vfpught,-bledfi ‘and died upon the battle-fields of the Sunny South, that we might enjoy’ freedom, and nationality “worth the name of a great republic like ours. After all this, who of common sense’ would dare inatgurate another spirit of hate, revenge and sectional fallacy _that is destined to arouse all the animosities of sixteen yearsago? - s . Butall our hopes of a.re-union for | noblb_ and gf@nd ptl}‘posés have been frustrated, and we now behold the re--1 union dragged into disgrace and burning shame by the demagoguery of the republican leaders for base. and selfish ends. No soldier of true fidelity to his country can tead without a shame, the: = e | * RESOLUTIONS PASSED. ©~ = " That convention of déluded patri-otism.-had the effrontery of” sending broad-cast 'over the land a. series of resolves ‘of which the following is a specimen: | ’ 1 -
: “Resoled, By the soldiers and sailors of the United States in convention as‘sembled, that this American Nation is of God and the peopley that it is worth all the sacrifices we have made or cany make, and that. its value can only be measured’ by what we, the people, are -ready to give forit.” This does not upon its face look very bad, but by reading further, we leara that “by the people,” they mean ‘the republican party, and that to God and the republican party; the United States owes its existence. Alé'o,'fthey mean _that “ the sacrifices made,” were not made by demoscratic soldiers, but by the loyal Republicans alone. They gave no -credits to any one save the loyal blue,whom they think is by polities a republican. : They also say “that industry and free government go hand in hand ; that prospérity comes not alone, but 4s the child of the republican institution, and depends upon republican sué_géss."' Only think of the child of republican institutions; or they might have said in less disguised language:i ‘T‘?l‘Phe”%'hild of thé_ republican party.” ' I#ave no doubt “the corrupt ¥ings and diShonest prace (tices of the ré’pumiéa:&)iéty; loomed up before the writer of that resolution, and remirided him of the bastard pmmi .of the repubiican party. The only son | of old mother republican stands up: bravely as the greatest stumbling block in the way of honest and*industrious government. If the corruption so rifein the land is the best conception of which_ thé old’ mother is_ capable, it is'to be hoped that shewill ‘soficeive no more. But being imbued with the desite of a Roman to perpetuate their offspring to inherit thein legacy, thisg mother of a republican party, i’ conjunetion with its' fathers, Morton, (Chandler and Butler, demur to the | proceedings of divopcement pending
