RENSSELAER UNION - " .« —- Thursday. July 13. 1878.

MR. RAYES' LETTER OF ACCEPTANCE.

Gotefnor Have* has written hia fbrmal i«tt«r of acceptance of the republican nomination for president; In addition to endorsing the Cincinnati platform in toto, he t-eviews tbs sih or civil service plank at considerable length, and explicitly autos his opposition to the doctrine that to the Victors belong the spoils, lie says that under the operations of this pernicions system, wbioh all parties have adopted iu practice, the appointed oflieea have degenerated into rewards for shrtices to parly leaders, i hereby destroying the independence of tlfe Separate departments of the government, tending to extravagance and incapacity, and becoming a temptation to dishonesty. In short it every way degrades the civil service, and the character of the government. Although the subject was not made an article of faith in the platform, Mr. Hayes announces his conviction that the one presidential term idea is best, every thing considered, and that in case he is elected to the presiden-

lial office it is hia “inflexible purpose not to be a candidate for election to a second term.'* This announcement is extraordinary, and we believe without precedent. With n ambers of voters it will have great weightin deciding their course of action with respect to presiden* tial tickets. It will undoubtedly make many votes for the republican party. He pronounces unreservedly and, unmistakably in favor of “the resumption of specie payments,’* and promises, if elected, to “approve every measure to accomplish the desired end, and oppose any step backward.” There is no shuffling nor dodging the issue here. He meets the question fairly, squarely, and makes a better platform on this issue than the convention did. As a natter of conrse “the condition of the Southern States” comes in for a review. Perhaps all that is necessary to remark in this connection is that Mr, Hayes is in full accord with the most advanced ideas of bis party. He thinks' an amendment to the Constitution will be necessary foplace at rest all discussion of the free school question. Taken altogether this letter of acceptance indicates that Mr. Hayes is not likely to be the mere tool in the hande of others, which democratic journals have-predicted. Ho will estrange no votes, by it.

PRESIDENT GRANT'S SINGULAR CONDUCT.

President Grant lias taken the hir teeth, and is running at a gait of recklessness which is calculated to appal even the most stubborn of flis apologists. His contempt of public sentiment is latterly manifesting itself in the most pronounced and apparently unaccountable banner. A number of the most efficient officers have been compelled to tender their resignations aud others removed, without any ascribed reason, and seemingly for no other purpose than to make room for men of objectionable or even bad antecedents. Mr. Jewell was caused to tender his resignation as postmaster general, and Hft James N. Tyner, a congressional salary-grabber whom the republicans of the Ilth district declined to nominate for congress, is tendered the vacant portfolio. Mr. Pratt has felt it necessary to tender bis resignation as commissioner of internal revenue, for what appeared to him unwarrantable interference. Mr. Yaryan, one of the most efficient agents in the revenue service, has been removed; so also has Mr. Dyer, the United States district attorney at St. Louie. Jt is well knowif' throughout the country that Mr. Bristow could not remain in the cabinet. The trouble with Messrs. Bristow, Pratt, Dyer and Yaryan appears to have grown out of the too literal interpretation of President Grant's famous expression, “Let no guilty man en«spe,” uttered in connection with the whiskey-ring trials. Taking in oonncotiou the course pursued towards these gentlemen and the pardons which have already been issued to a number of those who were convicted >in these trials, and surpieion is aroused that an oppo- ***•. #® rse would have better pleased the exeetitirw heart.

The Valparaiso Fidetle Stoops to | misrepresent The Union upon its statement of Mr. Calkins’ congressional prospkeis. IS lie h action is despicable, and it passes ordinary ! oomprehehsidh to understand how a gentleinau with the reputation tor fairness editor has estabgentleman of nicediecrimination, who has occupied with credit the judicial bench—could betray himself for the bare possibility of partisan advantage in a campaign of so little excitement. Certainly our article received no more than a casual glance, else the Fidetle would not have said that we “flgured Major Calkins’ probable “majority at from 1,000 to 1,200 ” On the oontrsry, he must work hard and industriously for bis election, if Dr. Haymond is nominated by the democracy, as he probably will be. Our republican friends in Indiana will find no time for idling this year. If they wish j to succeed, they mast commence early and never slack their endeavors. With Mr. Orth heading their tioket, and his reputation compromised as it is, they have a donbtful struggle awaiting them.

Our neighbor at Remington, Mr. Kitt, announces in the last issue of his paper that unless at the end of the present volume of the Record bis circulation shall be largely increased he will discontinue its publication and turn his attention to job printing. He remarks that the Record has received an unexceptionably good support for a place of that size, but that the town does not appear to be large enough to make the publication of a newspaper in it a paying business. The Union is sorry to hear this statement made. Bro. Kitt has labored, industriously, publishes an excellent loc&l paper, and deserves a liberal patronage. It is to be hoped Remington people will make extra exertion to sustain this enterprise, which is a credit to their town, and the value of which they will sorely appreciate should it be necessary to discontinue its . publication. Times are very hard, and money is difficult to pbtain, but a good, lively newspaper, as the Record is, ought to be assisted through the squslly weather.

It is reported by the Indianapolis Journal that Peter Cooper is likely to receive a majority of the votes in Wayne township, Marion county, for president. From present indications Benton county will poll a heavy vote, and perhaps give a majority for him. All over the State, especially in strong democratic precincts, the Cooper movement is daily gaining strength and importance. In Jasper county are quite a number of both democrats and republicans who lean far over iu that direction, and we are not sure if they had an active leader bat they might poll a majority next falL

Mr. Rollin Fowler, of Crown Point, called at the Valparaiso Vidette office on the 4th, directly from the Black Hills, having been gone a little more than three months, and reports not enough gold there to pay for digging. The Indians are numerous, well armed, and hostile, so that it is unsafe either to go there, remain, or oome away. He and a companion traveled nights and lay Concealed by day for more than two weeks. They were fired on, and hie companion received shots through his hat and glove. .And now the Evansville Journal demands that Mr. Orth step down and off from the republican ticket. But he won't do it, and the only effectual way to lift him is at the ballot box in October. As sure as honesty is a desirable virtue in politics, ought republicans to scratch his name when they come to vote. It is a disgrace upon the party that be was nominated, and his election will be a reproach upon the state. Div John Lamborn, who represented this district in the State senate several years ago, is now living in Sparta, Wisconsin. He is an ardent advocato of the new greenback party, and is publishing a newspaper called the Wisconsin ! Grcenba?k:

Hydrostatic Experiments.

Under the flame of the old |hw mill is an attractive place for flight bathing, wbioh is frequently Retorted to daring the lioated term now being experienced. The water is two or three feet deep, flows over in a broad sheet affording a magnificent shower-bath arrangement, and runs dowu to the river wrod or two away in a swift enrrent over a smooth bed of rock. Although very seductive to perspiring mortals, it is not exceptionally safe for those possessing false teeth, as aecidents that have oouurred within a week are ample evidence. The first gentleman to become a victim of misplaced confidence, bot satisfied with the luxury oi a bath alone, attempted to add a hydraulic sneeze thereto, when ont dropped a set of internal improvements, which was borne by tbe swift current out of reach and out of sight to become an objeot of centennial wonder to patriotic fishes. Another gentleman of confiding nature, who lives in an eastern county and was attending a term of the circuit court then in session, being an interested party in the suits against the Jasper County Ditching Company, was attracted by the limpid streams thatcame spouting through fissures in the flume, and perhaps ! having read newspaper accounts of | the manner which miners of Calij fornia, Nevada, and other districts I direct streams of water against hillsides to wash away the loose earth and gravel that overlay auriferous rock, being in an experimental mood concluded to put to practical test the power of hydrostatic pressure in cleaning off the debrie which had accumulated upon his teeth. Opening his mouth to its fullest extent he moved up so as to talce into it a generous stream. The result, so far as was necessary to forever rest any doubt in the miud of the experimenter respect* ing the adequacy of the agency to perform the effect-sought, was a complete success. A gold basis was reached much quicker than the most sanguine financier expects to arrive at it through any course of political «xperimenting yet suggested. Not only were all extraneous deposits borne away, but with them went the argentiferous foundation upon which they rested. Instantaneously everything moveablg was swept out, leaving the luckleks philosopher as toothless as in suckling infancy, and from thpt time until he started home his disf was confined to victuals of aqueobk' consistency.

Remington Record Items, July 7th.

Mr. Brook Cherry, railroad agent at Crete, Nebraska, is visiting his old home in Remington.... At the trotting races on the 4tb, Cap. Daw* son won first money, and in the pacing, Sleepy John did likewise. ....About three weeks ago Dr. M. G. Traugh was waiting for a south bouud train at Reynolds when he fell in with a young man who was seeking employment. He engaged him and all went smoothly until Thursday morning, when it was discovered that he had vamoosed the randv taking with him Mr. A. M. Trough's family horse. The thief is about 18 years and gave his name as James Clarkr. He was 'a quiet, industrious lad and appeared like an unassuming country boy.. . .Lase Black while arranging curtains to the windows in Exchange Hall, on last Saturday, was precipitated, by the breaking of a board on which he was stand: ing, against the window his head going through a pane of glass and holding him suspended on the railing for a time. He was severely cut on the side and shoulders, and considerably bruised, bat is able to be about on the streets.

Mr. Andrew K. Yeoman wrote to his father on the sth instant that his sister, Miss Jennie, whose sickness was mentioned in This Union last week, vu much worse and they had given np hope of her recovery. On the 7th he wrote again that she was somewhat better, and her physician said there waß a possible ehanoe for her yet. She is very IoW, indeed, and at one time bade her friends farewell, expecting to die in a few minutes. The letter of the 7th was written i two days after this occurrence.

STATE ITEMS.

LaFayette claims a population of 80,000. Tbe bar dockets for Clinton county cost $450 per annum. Those tor Jasper, SIOO. Republicans of Allen county have nominated W. H. Baird and H. N. Fitch for representatives. Lt Governor Leonidas Sexton was, on the 11th instant, nominated for congress by the republicans of the 4th district. The funeral of Harvey Bates, Sr. an old, wealthy and prominent citizen of Indianapolis, was held on the Bth instant. Johnny Short, a LaFayette hot air balloon voyager, met with a mishap daring an ascension on the 4th, by which he was precipitated to the ground and nearly killed. At last reports he was likely to recover. Dr. Charles G. Hartman was unanimously renominated for auditor, by the republicans of Pulaski county, on the Ist instant. They also renominated Mr. Teters for sheriff, and placed a fall tioket in the field. Hon. Godlove S. Ortli, republican candidate for governor, opened the campaign at Greencastle on Saturday. He proposes to make it hotter than a lime-kiln for Uncle Jimmey Williams and Hon. Anson Wolcott. Col. John H. Gould, of Delphi, was nominated by the republicans of Carroll, White and Pnlaski, in convention, at Monticello last week, forjudge of the 30th circuit, and J. H. Wallace, of Monticello, for prosecutor. Robert Gunnison, a farmer who resided about five miles south of Ft. Wayne, while descending his well for a bucket that had fallen in, was overcome by noxions gas when about ten feet down qpd fell to the bottom, breaking hio neck and cansing instant death. Lucius Pieroe, a prominent citizen of Monticello, and the independent candidate lor county auditor, was discovered in the woods near that place on Friday evening, in an insensible and almost dying condition from tbe loss of blood consequent upon the accidental cutting of his left foot while chopping‘wood. It is doubtful il be recovers. iSL 4* it:. j; ... r - - -4Mr. Leroy Templeton, of Benton county, candidate for state treasurer on the greenback ticket, was nominated for congress by the independents of the 9th district, at CrawfordsviHe on the Bth instant. M. D. White is the republican nominee, and Judge Ward, who has been bolding court in Rensselaer lor tbe past week, is mentioned in connection with the democratic nomination. On Saturday night the office of the New Castle Mercury was visited during tbe absence of the proprietors and employees, by parties who badly damaged the presses, destroyed the files and part ot the subscription list, and stole $1,200 worth of acoonnts. It is supposed that the outrage was perpetrated in retaliation tor certain published strictures upon tbe conduct of a liquor saloon and its patrons.
