RENSSELAER REPUBLICAN. M. BITTERS. Editor. ff m pay Mowsiso. Mat tl| 1880."

The Democratic Congressional nominating convention, for ibia district, will be held at Montioello, Wednesday, Jane 16th. The spring races of the Delphi Trotting Association will commence on the Pth of Jane. Five hundred dollars in cash premiums are offered. Congressional matters have been ■nnaually quiet for the past two weeks. The people seem to have settled down to the conviction that Simon P. Thompson will be the nominee, and so mote it be. The Cincinnati Commercial says “If a. woman is competent to be 'postmaster, she is competent to bo postmaster-general. If Mr, Hayes wants to cover himself with a circus tent of immortal glory he will fill 'Mr. Key’s chair with dimity iostead of doeskin.” ' )

Even the mongrel Greeobsckers have lost confidence mUticle Jimmy and are seriously contemplating the starting of a Greenback “organ” in Rensselaer. But it is generally voted that the person or persons who woo’d invest any means in a Greenback paper irt this place,would be fit subjects for a lunatic asylum. Dsn Yo'orhees’ exodu* investigation cost the government about til per head for every colored person, including women and childred, that has moved into Indiana from North Carolina during the past year. The total expense foots op abont $45,000. And what has Daniel or the Democratic party accomplished? The General Conference of the M. E. Church, now in session in Cincinnati,consists of 397 members, 245 ministers, and 15$ laymen, representing 95 annual conferences, situated in all of the grand divisions of the Globe, except Sooth America, and this will cease to be an exception belore th’e close ol another quadrennial. ,

A number of Democrats have been talking about employing three or four men to take Uncle Jimmy down to the river and give him a halfday’s scrubbing, but so far they have been unable to find any person who is willing to take the job for any reasonable «um of money. They gay he still carries a lot of White county mnd between his toes, and that the stench of his pedal extremities will discount rotten codfish a hundred per cent. Prof. D. Eckley Ilnnter, who was a rebel sympathizer during the dark hours of the rebellion, has been laboring recently to capture the Republican nomination for Superintendent ofPublic Instruction. With others we embrace this opportunity to sit down on him. Our policy is that those who opposed the Re* publican party in the perpetuity of the Nation are unworthy of its suppoft in the procurement of office and positions ot honor.

Uncle Jimmy does not deny that during the time hepabiished a paper in Monlieello, White county merged from a Democratic majority of two hundred and fifty to two hundred Republican majority. Neither does he deny that by “polyfoxing” with the Greeubackers in this county he has crippled the Democratic party and merited their condemnation. As a journalist Uncle Jimmy is a weak brother, and on account of his extreme egotism there is nopossibility of his'political spinal column being stiffened. James W hangdoodleMeEwen,tbe green backside man of the Sentinel, the political) W audering Jew, has furnished his handful of readers for three weeks with a column of demented twaddle about “Bitters and Ringsters,” that is as devoid of truth as its author's brain is of good sense. Notwithstanding its incomprehcnsibleness, if it contained the ahadow of a single fact it might be considered nothing more, but the average reader is unable to peruse it carefully and retain the equilibrium of his stomach. For this reason we positively have bo*. read either ai tide entire. Of all the “bogwash” that ever appeared in the columns of any newspaper, it excels in filthiness. It is common for editora to take a little personal or political bout occasionally, but there is no pleasure in stirring np the old stink pot ot the Sentinel. As a citizen Raid a few days ago—- “ Whenever a gentleman kicks a skunk he is sore to get the worst of the bargain.”

From a small clerkship in abranch 4 office of the Pennsylvania railroad company, Col. Thomas Scott retires from the service of the corporation u its president with an ample fortune and a serious paralysis, both Acquired by unremitting toil and faithful performance of duty in every position he has held. To those who inquire what, after all, has he gained by working himself to a forced retirement fWm active duties in bad health, the answer is •oggested in another4]nestH>n as to whst any maß can gain more in this life than the success of his plans aajd'the exercise of his ability in a

field worthy of and requiring alt It* •cope? Colonel Scott is no doubt aware (hat health ia a mere accident to a busy man, which a very ■light miscalculation may destroy. But if he baa to reflect that ho haa been imprudent in the use of hia own physical powers he can also enjoy the knowledge that the strength he baa wasted hars contributed to the direct benefit of every stockholder of the Pennsylvania railroad and its innumerable brandies, that bis fame ia world wide, hia genina for affairs everywhere recognized, his success acknowledged and hia example illustrative of what should enter into the calculation of every young man of ambition to get on in the world to a prominent position of power and influence. ?~

Various Democratic journals are telling their readers that because our national convention meets in about a fortnight very little time is left to settle those differences that “now threaten to rend the Republican party asunder.” Those differences they do not state or make plain to the vision of tho public, but they want to support Democratic confidence by the irasginatien that they do exist in some form somewhere. “Those differences” amount to the single elcmeut in the Republican party opposed to the nomination of General Grant on the ground that a third term precedent would be a bad one to establish. Apart from this iluru rover was a political parly in any country more in perfect harmony in nil its workings than the Republican party of the United States. There aannot really be said to be ranch opposition to Grant in the Republican party. Every pntriotie Republican remembers too distinctly the events of the rebellion to have anything like a personal feeling against Grant. Rather the tendency ia to regard him in the light of a great soldier, a patriot and one who possesses.the admirable qualities of firmness and consistency, and to admit his claims to popularity. But the idea ot a third term so harshly violates the unwritten but binding law of the republic, that it is hateful to them and so extremely hateful to some as to be intolerable. This is mainly the reason why we do not waut Grant as a candidate this year.

That aH|e and sturdy Grant journal, the Chicago Inter Ocean, cries out that the “machine” in Republican politics is being used to defeat the nomination of General Grant. This occurs in one column of its editorial page, while in another a frantic appeal is made for the binding effect of onit rule and the force of instructions by state conventions to district delegates. To the most careless citizen it most beplain that here occnrs an inconsistency. The most offensive function of machine politics just now in the Republican party is the attempt to enforce unit rule, and to condemn the machine

and insist on unit rule as a principle of .political usage more important than the influence of the popular will on the action of a national convention, is stultifying in a Grant journal, particularly as the harshness of “machine unit rule” has all been exercised this year in favor of Grant. It is false to allege that the machine has anywhere been used to forward Blaine interests where the popular preferenoe has been for some other candidate. There can be no sound objection to that kind of nnit rule agreed npon among delegates to organize and discipline their forces in the direction of the sentiment felt iu the districts. But any unit rule that attempts to force the vote of a dele gate away from the candidate wanted by the di«triet he represents, is a fraud and an injury. It is no more than truth to say that wherever state conventions have instructed for Blaine the action has been merely formal and in entire consonance with the will of the Re publicans represented by the instructed delegates. If this were not the csße the instructions would not be binding. There has been no instance of trying to tie up delegates for Blaine similar to the attempts made in Pennsylvania and New York, and which must break and fail because of their injustice to the majorities demanding Blaine in both States. Nothing of the kind has been necessary, because Biaine is too popular to require it; and because he is so popular in Illinois the Inter Ocean has been swerved in fright from its original level-headed editorial direction. The masses of the north want Blaine, and more of the south than anybody expected.

If possible we avoid engaging iu political discussions on the street, but la»t Saturday evening while in conversation with a Greenback fellow citizen the vexed question of finance naturally came to the surface, being introduced by a mention of the Weaver bill. We are sorry that so many soldiers have not yet been fully advised as to the import of this nefarious soheroe to rob the National treasury. It would be worse than the salary grab,'and the. crime greater in proportion to the amount of money taken. The Weaver bill is only another Greenback for the inflation of the currency,

and it >• peculiarly adapted to catch the soldier vote, or ao many of them as do not fully comprehend the trick or may be saflfeiently unscrupulous to receive money* from the gevdimmeut net justly due. The object of this bill ia te compel the government to nay out of her treasury to all soldiers and sailor* the difference in vslne between greenbacks and geld coin, during the time of their service. This would give to every enlisted man » sum nearly equal to that already received and several millions of greenbacks would have to be created to meet the demands. At the commencement of the rebellion Union soldiers were paid sll per month, principal ly in coin. When it became necessary to nae depreciated greenbacks the wAges were raised gradually to sl6 per month, and the government paid every dollar she agreed to' pay her soldiers. As we said above, the biil is simply the machinations of the leaders of the Fiat party, who are endeavoring throngh the aid of the soldiers to flood the country again with depreciated paper money, but we are glad to learn that ►oldiers generally will not consent to become a party to such an extensive salary grab. Wo have now’ the nearest approach to a sound currency that wo ever had, and in this matter we should be willing to let good enough alone. Psper money can be profitably issued by the government, but It should be carefully limited in amount, and so guarded by coin reserves, that it will be, withont doubt or question, always maintained at par. The paper dollar should have no false pretenses, but a promise to pay money, and nothing less nor more, depending for its credit aud value otdy upon sure and prompt fulfillment of that promise on demand. We want no fiat money, but vre want coin and paper money that rests noon the scoured promise of government or of corporations that it can be converted into coin when needed. We hope no soldier will be so forgetful of his patriotism as to lend any encouragement to this wholesale robbery. If any fought tor money alone they received all tho government agreed to pay. Tboso who fonght as patriots will not seek to impoverish the government they helped to sustain.

It we were required to state in the fewest possible words the disbetween the Republican and Democratic parlies, we should say that tho former is the party ot justice anil equal rights, and ihe latter the party of tolerance and class rule. Words go for little in politics. Platforms and resolutions are easily m and easily disoard* ed. The acts of a party arc what we must look to as the exponent of its real principles. Judging the two political parties by their acts, we fifd the Republican party in variably arraying itself on the side of fair play, equal rights, and evenhanded justice, and the Democracy as surely on the side of political intolerance and injustice. The most conspicuous evidence ot this appears in the treatment ot the colored race by the two parties. Without going back of the time when the Democratic party bent all its energies to the work of sustaining and defending slavery, we need only to look at the more.recent treatment which the negro has received, and at the present attitude of the two parties tow’ard him. The Republican parly uot only emancipated him from slavery and struck from his limbs the manacles that fettered him so long, but it has steadily aimed to make a man and a citizen of him—a useful, intelligent and productive citizen. This has been the object and tendency of all Republican legislation relative to the colored race. It ha* endeavored to protect the colored man against his late masters and present enemies; it has encouraged his efforts to obtain an education;- it has aimed to secure his civil and political equality before tho law; in short, it has sieadily aimed to mako a man and citizen tis him. Precisely the op posite have been the temper and conduct of the Democratic party. It would really seem as if that party could never outgrow its hatred ot tiie negro, begotten and bred under the old slavery system. It begrudges him his political rights, his civil rights, his schools, ht* manly ambition to get along in the world, his 'ittle plans for sfelf advancement —in a word—it begrudges him bis liberty, and wili die ill the last ditch rather than give a hearty recognition to hia political equality. The Republican party ia the party of justice, fair play and equal rights. The Democratic party ia the party of intolerance, injnstice and class role.—lndianapolis Journal.

Senator Voorhees is in trouble again He seemi to havo a talent for getting into trouble. When-he started out on the Southern exodus investigation, it was with a view of proving that the Republican party was responsible for the immigration of negroes from the South to the North. This he failed to do, and it got him into trouble. Then, he esßayed to provo that colored citizens had no constitutional right to move from a Southern to a Northern State. Of course he failed in that, and got into more trouble. Then he got into still deeper trouble by the disclosure of the fact that his investigation had oost 145,000 of the people's money. And now he is in the worst look of alt by the abseoundingof his coramitteeclerk, a Georgia Democrat, with all the papers belonging to the committee. Senator Voorhees has sent a deputy sergeant at-arms after the elerk, at the public expense. In matters of this kind the Wabash Senator is very liberal.—lnd. JoarnsL.

INGERSOLL, THE PLAGIARIST.

lW.tart.KW.U~te-} That Robert G. Iwgeraoll l*. in .tor of the will not be disputed by his most ardent etftmies. H* clothes the hideous doctrine* of Atheism and infidelity with the most glittering rhetoric and brilliantly rounded periods. * It is in the wonderful charm of Col. Ingersoll’s oratory and the magnetism of hie presence that the only danger lies. It ia this that may efctlbtoee the young and lead astray thb weakminded—nothing more. A little research shows the silver*toi%n4d infidel an inconoclaet to have advanced nothing new, but on the contrary to have only reiterated the beat sayings of the infidel writers of the past two hnndred years. A recent writer has shown that if

every infidel oration and lecture of 1 Ingeraoll was to be blotted out ot existence they could easily be re placed by selections from the atheist and infidel authors of. the past. His fainons lecture, “The Mistakes of Moses,” is shown to be almost a literal tran«cription of James Watson’s little pamphlet called the “Donbis of Infidels,” published In London in 1838, but now rarely seen. Hi* numerous and famous epigrams and w’itty shafts directed against the Bible are stolen bodily from long forgotten authors. The discussion on Infidelity between Grant and Holyoke in London, in 1853, has supplied him with many. His great saying that “he would go to hell with reason, rather than to heaven without it,” ia taken verbatim* from Baron Ilolbach a noted French infidel author of the last century. The renowned lecture on “Ghosts,” which has drawn thousands to hear it ia found to be twothirds cribbed from a book called “The Syatctn of Nature,” by an obscure English author. His lecture on tho ’‘Gods” admitted to be the best one of the entire list is ctilled from the very alums of Infidel wriff ings and its pungent and foul allusions to Christianity are all taken from a book that was suppressed in France and has long been out of print, and only found on the shelves ot the antiqnary—namely “The Life of the Gods” by Eugeno Baptist Parnry. His renowned aphorism, “An Honest God the Noblest Work ot Man,” is taken from a book by Charles Blodnt, and published in London, in 1663. Those are only a portion of the eloquent scoffer’s levying on the brains of others for his own use without due credit. lugersoll asserts that “any mail who does not do his own tliiuging is a slave.” This is an assertion lie has also borrcfwed, yett*. shows him to bn tho most abject slave to the thoughts and writings of those w’lio long ago upheld this same iconoclastic creed. Ingersoll’s power for evil rests only on Smoothly turned periods and bitter scoffs that am as empty as the tinkle ot cymbals. His borrowed thoughts arc often entwined with the showiest flowers of oratory, and have borne transplanting well, but they will live no longer when uttered by him than they did when written l>y their originates, in the long, long ago. Infidelity is nothing new, scoffing at Christianity can present nothing new, and now that the followers of this grand orator, Ingeraoll, find that they have been fed only on old husks, they will .soon grow weary, and seek for sometVing absolutely new.

Wonder whether he holds (he constitution to be constitutional?—Goshen Times. Thq above is true, but it only applies to his eagerness to give opinions to Democratic editors on Democratic party questions. This paper asked Woolen’s opinion on a certain question, and he did not have the common courtesy, or decency, to even acknowledge the letter.
