"Hox. Wix. D. KELLEY's 'mission upen eartli at the present time appears 10 be a dishonest attempt to lure greenTsack republicansaway from Cooper in--1o the embrace of Hayes. These honst dupes ought to: have their eyes opened by ﬂfe duplicity of their’ disomest leaders. g o i

Fox the first fifty years of the postal service, down to 1829, the receipts were 826,880,000, and the expeuditures. were £25,246,000; that is, the Postoffice Department was self-sustaining. Now, the postal _receipts are nearly $30.,000,000 a year, but thete is an annual deficit of about $8,000,000, which ihe people aré forced to make good. '

For the decade ending in 1830 the detected frauds on the'revenue, as ex: hibited in the total fines, penalties andl forfeitures, wefe in'all $9,537. For the decade ending with 1860, they were $177,339. For the decade énding with 1870, they were $4,219,980. - For ihe five years 1869-73, they were s4,§ 381,139, Yet in these years the temptation to fraud, as measured by the, reduction -in the rates of duties, was at least 20 per cent. less than in the previous decade.

REPUBLICAN FARMERS should recollect, when going to the ballot-box in November, that the Ilayes orators and organ-grinders sneeringly allude 9 Governor-elect Williams as a “Kan.garco,” just because he prefers to dress plainly and had his hands hard‘ened by honest toil on his farm. This-‘stuck-up codfish aristocracy can scarcei¥ find words mean enough to express their contempt for the plain farmer who so handsomely “seooped out” the polished lawyer, Ben.ﬁzglarrisozg. B

~ THE ARMY AT THE POLLS, - - The proofs gather that the desperate men at Washington are preparing . to carry the elections in the South.by force of arms, and by the flagrant use of the army of the United States,which belongs to all parties, in the service of one party. The evidences of deliberate conspiracy come to light every day. The evidences are not simply’ those of a systematic purpose, but al-. so of along prepared and carefully ‘matured plan of operations. Those who have looked into this matter closely are fairly appalled at the traces eiferywﬁeré apparent of ‘a deeplaid plot, widely ramifying, long incubated. They remember with a shudder that when . the first preparations ‘were made for this conspiraey, Grant himself was a candidate for a third termn. They remember, moreover, that, ‘but tor the explosion of the whisky ring, and the exposure of his immediate associates by a reforming and retrenching democratic Congress, Grant himself would have been nominated for' that third term,and would have run for himself “the machine” he is now running for Itayes. They discover a shocking resemblance be- | twveen this White House conspiracy and the initial steps of the “ conspi- | racy of the Elysee,” by means of which on the 2d of December, 1851, Prince | Louis Napoleon Bonaparie and his confederates, Morny, Persigny, St. Arnvaud, Fleury and Maupas, struck down the French Republic, and on its corpse erected the monstrous structure of a military despotism. The cabinet changes, by which, in a gradJual way, ‘independent, conscientious men have .been: supplanted by unscrupulous tools,or fanatical partisains, or unprincipled manipulators; the ' changes in the command; the effective and the locale of the army; the careful bundling together of legal subterfuges; ‘the bitter and unscrupulous appeal to' the worst passions and meanest prejudices of the human race;

the cloud of lies and -calumnies flung into the air in every direction; all these things march exactly like the events antecedent to the infamous and blaody coup d’etat-of December, Do

Cameron' will answer very well for Morny. If not quite so bold, heis fully as unscrupulous, fully as much a practical politicijgn,‘ fully as‘well versed in the profitable purchase ‘and sale of *“those fractional and volatile interests in trading adventures which go by the name of shares.” It is Don’s notion that a “Government” may be made up as a “ticket” is, and elected in the

same ivay, and Grant approves the end which Don proposes, even while -unable to employ the means suggested in the same skillful way. . : In the conspiraey of the coup d’etut, regiménts that could not be trusted, officers suspected of independence were sent to distant posts, and:others fit for the work in hand were put in their stead. We see the same thing here; and - now, in the traaslation of Schofield, the promotion of Ruger, the march of the negro cavalry from the Texas frontier into Louisiana,and oth-

er similar changes. The gradual cabinet shiftings, which put Taft in place. of Delano, Cameron in place.of Belknap, Mortill in place of Bristow, and Tyner in place of Jewell, all. indicate the fitting together of a machine for a

‘specific object. The deputy Marshals iu_command of the army are exactly copied from the ‘French “commissaries” whom the conspirators of the Elysee sent into, the provinges, “ men of dire repute, and armed with terri ble powers.” T This is the machinery under which the coming Grant-Hayes election is to be held, in imitation of Napoleon’s Plebiscite —an election held under the sword—an .election- at which it only needs the raised finger of a deputy United States Marshal—of one of these men of dire repute, to proclaim mar-. tial law. oLt &

INDIAN SumMEß.—This haleyon period of our autumn will always in some way, be associated with the Indian. -It is red and yellow and dusky like him. "The memory of him pervades the woods. His plumes and moccasins and blankets of skins forms just the costume the season demands. It was doubtless his chosen _period. The gods smiled upon him then if ever. ‘The time of the chase, the season of the buck and the doe, and of the ripening of all forest fruits; the time Wl;éxi all men are incipient hunters, ¥hen the first frosts-have given pungency to the air, when to be abroad on tlie-hills or in- the wocds is a delight that both old and young feel—if the red aborigine ever bad his sunamer of fullness and -contentment, it must have been at this season, and it very fitly bears his name. | =~

IN 1845, Commodore Wilkes, returning from his exploring expedition around the globe, brought home with him a few exotic plants. They ‘were temporarily put in charge of the Gom-* mittee on the Library, a sum of money was appropriated, and a corner of public land designated for this temporary end.- This was the beginning of the “Botanic Garden,” whence M, C’s get their beuquets. Last | year there was appropriated for the use of this concern the sum of $20,046. The custody of Commodore Wilkes’ exotics, all of which could probably have been bought for $250, has cost the people of the United States thé clever! sum of $372,000. : PR L T

~ THE RADICALS rejoice greatly over the defeat of Holman. It is natural enough for therr;%to do so. The Fort Wayne Sentinel says: Mr. Holinan has gained a national reputation as “the watch dog of the treasury.” His presence in Congress has been the means -of saving the national treasury many millions of dollars. He has been a perpetual menace to Zthieves, . rings; lobbyists, and_public- Yampires of all descriptions. He bas been the steady, unrelenting foe of subsidies and land grants. Every thief and public.rgbber in the land will rejoice with the radicals over Judge Holman’s defeat. .

OUR NEW YORK LETTER.

NEw Yorxk, Oct. 13th. - ' THE WESTERN ELECTIONS, _ The returns from the West are rosy tinted for the Democrats. | If they | should be verified by the official figures, it will be one of the most en‘couraging victories ever won in politics. Indiana has had the constant attention of the republican partv for || months; the whole power of the Administration has been thrown into the State to carry it iagainst the Democ- | racy, but, notwi}‘,hstanding‘ all their efforts, facilitategi by unstinted supplies of money and speakers, they have not. been able to stem the tide of popular indignation against the radical managers. The State gives an ingreased majority over the vote of "72 for the Democrats. © This ‘makes the election of Tilden and Hendricks sure. The elections that have already heen held this year, show an increased democratic vote of over two hundred thousand. This is an indication of the drift of public opinion, and nothing that the Republicans can do, will stem the tide. Their mighty effortin Indiana has used up all of their means, and their defeat ‘has frightened their friends so that they will not advance’ the funds that will be necessary to carry on their campaign with aceus‘tomed vigor. The bankers and. Na- . tional Banks who have been in the : habit of aiding this party in a very material manner have not come forward, and the- office-holders were ‘obliged to furnish the amount usually collected from that source. Theironly remaining chance now is to make an--other 'illegal assessment upon. the GoVer’nment’ employes, which will only enable the Republican National €ommittee to accomplish the routine business. The New York Herald which has, all along, advocated the election of Hayes and Wheeler, says that the | Democrats now havg;: the chances in their favor, and that with cauation, courage; and hard work, the election of their candidates is a foregone conclu-. sion. The shriek that went up from the 7'¢mes” officé, when. Indiana was assured-to the Democrats, was cracked with rage, and the editorial upon the situation,in the paper of the following morning, was laborious, stupid ands ‘without consolation to.its most sanguine readers.. A reporter of thé World, who visited the Republican headquarters, said that although the leaders told the crowd that good news was coming constantly, they walked about inthe mrost dejected manner and seized the dispatches as they came in and perused them with anxiety displayed from every feature. They had staked their all upon the turning of a card, and luck was against them. The Herald further said, in the article giving up the November elections, if the Democracy used caution, ete.,that the reason for the disastrous defeat of Tuesday last. was the use of the war issues forced into the campaign by the leaders, and summed up the result in the following terse paragraph: - “Substantially their campaign with the ‘bloody shirt’ is a defeat. It was a erate enterprise, set on foot by t’lpf}g-;fi: wing of the party, which dysumed command and had its own sweet will,in the campaign. It was-the DNan battle of the Chandlers, Mortons, Logans—the ‘war horses’ of the Republican side; and the subordinate leaders, not even excepting poor Mr. Schurz at the last, fell obediently into line and fought it out, and substantially ‘got.beaten. Undoubtedly they deserved it; but will it teach the republican party no lesson ?” i tod e S AM,

YORK TOWNSHIP SPECIALS

- EDITOR BANNER:— The election passed off quietly in this township. Mr. Kimmellreceived a rousing majority. We feel grateful to the Democrats of this township for their aid in bringing about this result, and rejoice to think thétime is near at hand when party strife will be ignored in our local elections. :

We were in Ligonier on Saturday last, and were sorry to learn that our much esteemed friend, Samuel Ohlwine, of Sparta township, was being assailed with a fearful storm of slander and abuse by some parties erlp whom we ought to expect much better things, simply because he had the independence to openly support Tousley. for Judge, and Eagles for Sheriff. How odd it is to think that they should censure Mr. Ohlwine, and one or two others only,when there were hundreds of other Republicans in this county who voted for the above named gentlémen, and went on their way in peace. That doesn’t pan out exactly right; does it? Mr. Ohlwine has always been favorably known as one of our most garnest: workers in the republican party in this qounty, and especially 1n Sparta 'town:ship.v . He has worked for the interests of the republican party when those unprincipled, whining whiffets who are now on the rampage barking at his heels and saying he isn’t fit to belong to the republican party, were. working for themselves or snugly stowed away in their beds or cradles, dreaming pleasant dreams or meditating how they might advance their fingncial interests, I think if they would stop. and consider one minute, they would feel ashamed of themselves. o :

~ Sinee they have gone so far as to say that Mr. Ohlwine is not. fit to belong to the republican party;l will now ask, without any show of effrontery however, if they expect to go on and slander Mr, Ohlwine, and not trample on the rights and privileges of from four to six hundred otler “sensitive” individuals who cast their ballots for Tousley and Eagles the same as MF. Oblwine did? Itlooks to me as though they were condemning others for what some of them practiced themselves. . FREEMAN.

WHEN Horace Greeley was nominated, in 1872, “Brick” Pomeroy refuse€d to support him, unless he was paid a certain sum of money, necessary at that time to keep his LaCrosse Democrat office out of the Sheriff’s hands. The demand was not complied with. Then “Brick sent an emissary to Leng Branch to negotiate with General Grant, but he did not consider the matter worthy of attention. Pomeroy has the reputation of blowing hot and cold, just as he is said to do.—Zeba-: non Ploneers . v : A ]esl 4 e i

EAST SPARTA \NKLINGS.

A number of Spartans started for the Centennial on Sundaylast. Among ti_m number were Wi, Hitler, Wm. Sehlabach, Nelson Earnhart and several others. }

. The Rev. M. R. Zorger, of Whitley county, preached at the Sparta school house, last Saturday evening..and also on Sunday morning and evening, at ‘which times he delivered three very interesting discourses,. < ~.Mr, John Sturnbaugh, one of our substantial farme:s, is preparing to erect a fine barn the coming spring.

. 'The farmers#in this vicinity have commenced eribbing their corn. - There will be a vety small yield of clover-seed in this vicinity this season. The crop will not' average one bushel per acre. _ ‘

Broadway Church (Christian) is visited regularly by its very efficient pastor, Elder Peter Winenrenner, ot Noblesville. -He flled an appoint-’ ment there three weeks ago, at whidh time his discourse wag founded on a portion of Scripture taken from the first chapter of Genesis, The Elder did justice o the subject, as is his ‘wont, to do. We consider the Elder one of our most sincere and earnest workers, and one who wins friends to the cause wherever he preaches. lOur éqtelfprising,Tl'dstee, Mr. Earnhart, h_ai eontracted with Mr. Henry Klick’ for the erestion of .a brick school-house ;on Broadway, for the small sum of! $B5O, aid we are of the opinion that it is very eheap at these figures. “Mr. Klick is-a boss *contractor and carpenter, and is bound to rénder satisfaction. inﬁvevery- particular. You see we are bound not to be behind our sister townships in educational - matters. - Suceess,- say we, to the common schools. . 5

The election passed off,as quietly as <j could be expe’ct*}d, and Mr. Kimmell received a véry‘ respectublé majority | for Representative. We do not think it is democratic in the last to say that we, as Republieans, feel duly grateful to our democratic neighbors for aiding us in securing Mr. -Khjlmell’s election. : i . Mr, Jacob Baker was elected {'rustee over Mr. John Earnhart by a majority of twelve. This isa very small majority, considering. th}tt the township went one hundred and three republican.; But let that be as it may; if Mr. Baker looks as well to the interests of our township affairs in the future as Mr. Earnhart has in ‘the past, we will have no reason to complain. =~ edpa o - We were surprised to learn that there ‘was a man in' Cromwell who ‘weng so far as to tantalize and make sport of Mr. Earnhart when he first, learned of the latter’s defeat. Wedid not think that there was a person in Cromwell but what had some respect for oldage. You must not think that all who voted for Mr. Jacob Baker are enemies of Mr. Earnhart; and it is the same on the other hand. Barring the above' mentioned unmanly conduct, Mr. Earnhart was treated w_‘ith due respect.. e Oct. 16, 76, SPARTAN,

Hendricks on the Great Vietory. . Governor Hendricks, in response to a serenade at Indianapolis last Thursday evering, said: . ;' My FELLOW-CITIZENS: We have just closed what I regard as the greatest controversy almost ever had in the world. Considering the number of persons interested within our own State in this contest; considering the interest that is felt in every State of the Union as to the result of the vote; considering the number of men that ' have participated actively in the field, ‘and considering the grandeur of the .result itself, I consider it unsurpassed in the political strifes and contests of the world. I believe that we have occasion to be satisfied, to be gratified at ’ the election made of my suceessor in the office of Governor.. I believe that Mr. Williams will prove to be an efficient and most excellent officer for the people of Indiana. e has not had some of the advantages that some other of the-public men.of the State of Indiana have enjoyed; but practically he is well informed in regard to .the affairs of the State for many years. I believe for twenty years-Mr. Williams has been identified with the legislation of this State, and during those twenty years he has said much; he has voted often; he has introduced many bills, and, my countrymen, do you recollect of a single objection during the heated contest that has been made to any | word he uttered, to any vote he gave, or to any bill he introduced during the twenty years?, Mr. Williams has that sort of information that he will be a benefit to the State of Indiana, and Lam glad to recognize in an honest man my own suecessor. My fel-low-ecitizens, the work does not stop to-night. It goes on yet for another month. I believe we follow the leadership of a chieftain- worthy to be followed. We follow a man who has shown in his past record that he is a true reformer. I believe that Governor Tilden is worthy of your support. “and of mine. I'here is nothing in the history of the Deémocracy of Indiana of which I am prouder than this fact. Governor Tilden was not the first choice of the Indiana Demacracy for the Presidency. But wheninNational Convention the Democragy of every section united upon him-as the best and most available candidate, then the Indiana Demoecracy loaked the question squarely ip the face, and they .came up togethei;. shoulder to shoulder, step to step, and they have under his leadership so far as it was felt, in the State ‘contest, they have ‘made the most sublime, determined and grand contest for the right that has ever been made, in my opinion, ‘

in the politics of the world. , Let us go on and make Novemberin Indiana even more glorious than October is. Let them know in every section of this Union that the Indiana Democracy, while they fight the State battle with a gallantry and determination never seen before, let them know tha{ in the National contest Indiana wil present more than her 200,000 voters in support of the National platform of the democratic party.

| Growih of Offictal Extravagance. ‘Eor the fiscal year ending June 30, 1875, as per “Financial Report” for that year, page 417, the total cost of ‘collecting $102,995,242.45 was $3,621,182.16; while for: precisely the same services - for the fiscal year ending June 30, 1872, (and not including expenses of assessing or store-keepers, compensation in either year), as per “TFinancial Report for 'that year, page 231, the total cost of collecting $14,- ' 833,885.48 more of internal revenue taxes was $2,683,177,24, or a difference: infavor of 1872 of $938,004.92, there being many more collectors and other. ‘revenue officers in 1872 than in 1875, which conclusively shows that, notwithstanding the continued boast of reduction in internal revenue expenses by therepublican party, as taxation decreases and the people seem to throw off the yolk of radicalism, the' number and expenses of this:powerful army of internal revenue officials increases, and all for the purpese of enchaining the people longeér in" this terrible systém of supporting an im‘pudent and overbearing set of office--holders, whose' only qualification for ‘position is their claim of the number of votes they control. In support of which fact, an examination of the following by Mr. Pratt; late Commissioners of Interual Revenue, will pay perusal. In his annual report:for 1875, page 45, hesays: “I have given much consideration to the question whether the plan of wholesale liqguor dealers’ packages being gunaged by United States gaugers could not be dispensed with, and am of the opinion that it is not only feasible and economical,/but will be a better check upon fraud than néw obfains under the present System. 1t is es&mate}i that the expense heretofore fncurred by the ggvernment forgauging at wholesale liquor-dealers’ establishments amounted to about one-fourth ' the éntire cost paid for gauging, or more than $250,000.”

On Thursday morning, October 12, a terrible accident happened on the Great Westerr road, near Princeton, Canada. The train was deliberately ditched by scoundrels, and totally wrecked, except: one slefper.- The wreck took fire and! .oceasioned some loss of life, no passengers being among the killed, how-. ever. The American express mess- | enger, James W. Andrews, of Detroit, and the baggageman, George Wright, of Suspension Bridge, were ‘burned to death amid the ruins of the car. The engineer, William Cooper, whose wife and family of four children live at Clifton, was killed, and the fireman, J. Irwin, of Detroit, met the same sad fate. Tt is reported That Cooper was scald- | -ed to death by the escaping stéam from his ruined engine, and that the | fireman was crushed by the tender.
