AND now Donn Piatt lias fallen heir to a fortune by the death of an uncle, who leaves a matter of a few millions. Donn is done for. No decent literary work.was ever done on gilt edged paper.

ABOUT on.e man out of every five in the State is a prospective candw date for Governors We sometimes shudder to think of the down-fall of all the other industries. Sometimes we even think that it is possible for the gubernatonal market to be over stocked.

THE hand of death'has begun to fall heavily on the heads of the whisky ring as it did on Oakes Ames and Brooks after the Credit Mobilier exposure. For death to follow fast upon the heels of remorse is an ar« gum en for poor human nature,showing it to have-been better than its acts.

MINISTER WASHBURNE ''deniges'' that he is afflicted with the' Presidential itch. So impressed was he with the belief that it was necessary for him to be explicit on this point that he was at pains to write full particulars to a friend/ -Nevertheless, if his country demands his services th.ey are "hern." ...

..V.

CONGRESS will in all human probability appropriate almillion or more dollars to the Caotennial, inasmuch as the thing wont happen agdin for a great matiy years we are inclined to think that perhaps it is all right. A nice appropriation for the country would be an increase of about fifty millions per annum in the Government's revenues', a decrease of the same amount in expenditures and a reduction of the public debt about two centennial millions:

Jeff. Divis iihd Amnefcty. In the House of Representatives the Republicans are seeking as far as possible to obstruct the full and free amnesty which jhould come with this centennial year by ah absurd proposition to exempt jejf. Davis from the operation of the amnesty bill. The way to keep Jeff. Efavia as a disturbing element in the community, is to make him the solitary mar of the wrath of the self assumed loyal element of the North., It gives him a prominence he does not merit. It gives him a martyrs drown to which he lias no claim greater than -that of thousands of his followers. For the great outrage of the rebellion Jeff. Davis is no more responsible than thousands of other men in the South. Grafted a full and free amnesty now, he sinks out of public notice alto? gether, for he is an old man,. broken in spirit, and in comparitively feeble health. Exempted from its operations every honest, map in the south who fought in the rebellion, and who knows that lie is just as guilty of treason as Davis himself, will, if lie has a spark of honor making him worthy to be called a man, feel aggreived at this partiality and sympathise with the fallen chieftau. That sympathy exercised towa'rds him be because ho was a rebel aud because i3 suffering penalties for having been one, is the one thing,, we as a nation should $ seek to avoid.

For Jeff Davis we do not care a fig and should not go into mourning, if, in remorse for his evil deeds done in fomenting a civil strife, he should go out and hang himself as Judas did, but we do protest against the "affections of a large mass of hon-? est men in the South being, in howsoever email a degree, alienated from the Nation, by a species of petty spite against this weak old man.This is not principle/ but policy. It is not justice, but sense. In strict justice, Jell Davis should have been hanged, and if it had been done immediately after his capture, -we should not have'objected, but now: wheivnothing but evil consequences din flow from a niggard ^cftcyof

amnesty, we do ...opp.ose.this petty, spirit of persecution. Let Jeff Davis be hardened, and then let him sink out of the sight of men forever.

Col. Morrison's War fiecor'd. The Indianapolis Journal finds food for an adverse criticism on Col: Morrison oflilinois, Chairman of tho Comnaitf?s .n Ways and Means for the liograi hict\l ^ketch of himself in the Congressional/ directory.• It appear# that in the edition of the directory published in 1868, Col. Morrisqn permitted the following sentence to appear. "After the rebellion broke out, he organized the Forty-ninth Regiment of Illinois volunteers and was severely wounded at Fort Donaldson." It should be premised that these sketches before publication are revised, and semetime3 indeed writ" ten -by the members themselves, though the more frequent custom is for them to be written by a third party from notes furnished by the members themselves. Now in the sentence given above there is a bare recital of the military experience of Col. Morrison, of which he is most prob ably proud, though not pufled up to the.point of bursting.

In the next directory this passage in^his history is chronicled in this phrase, "He organized, and commanded the Forty-ninth Illinois teg iment in the late war." In the edi tion of the directory for the present Congress, by his own direction, this part of his history I» omitted altogether.

Now to most persons, this fact is susceptible of but two interpretations, either one of which is certainly not discrsditable to Mr. Morrison, if indeed it i9 not greatly to bis credit Ha is a growing man, and tha incidents of his life arrange themselves very naturally in the order of their importance, the greatest nearest and run back with the true perspective of biography.

He may have thought, with modesty TI hich we fear, the managers of Sen a tor Morton organ are as little capable of imitating, as they appear to be able to appreciate it, that patriotism as exhibited by fighting for ones country was honor in and of itself, and 'not a matter which could be bettered by eter^ nally blowing about it frooi the house tops and on the street corners

He may have suppressed all menf^ ion of his connection with the army from the derectory, because he thought it might possibly among supersensitive southern members of Congress, delay in some email way that cordial fraternization between the sections, which, if it should come in this centennial year of our independence would be the crowning act of the century.

Colonel Morrison fought for his country when it needed hi3 help. He was as gallant an officer as ever saw service. His shirt was dyed with his biood at Dondolson.

That he has not chosen to flaunt in the public eye that bloody piece of wearing apparel, as has Senator Morton, with whose record during the war, as Governor, we have nothing to complain, but of which in common with all Iudianiaus, we are proud, and none the less so because we don't think it consecrates all his acts as Senator, is a matter for which we rather like, thau dislike Mr. Morrison. That he has chosen to wash his shirt to the color of a flag of truce, and lias the sense ouly to hibit itas such, is a matter which goes far to relieve the mind of any suspicion that his patriotism was not of that purer sort which found its end and aim, in his country's weal, and proves that it wa3 not a thing, to be hawked about. and mide capital of, and to be the means of deferring that day of peace for the restoration of which it was called into existence. But in this lea of his, letting his acts, as a soldier, speak for themselves in the eloquent language of a restored union, and striving, as a Statesman, to supplement them, is altogether obnoxious 10 the Indianapolis Journal, whose occupation, it appears, will be entirely gone when the united nation shall have ceased to remember and gloat over a fratricidal strife.

In Colonel Morrison's action upon this point we find much to commend andnothing tocondemn. We would commend it to the prayerful co'nsi!-. eratisn of Senator Morton, himself, wh®nc-e notjfear that a trateful people will forget his great services as Governor or ever cease to honor him for them unless by sowing dissension now.sedulously seeking to keep alive the dying embers of discord between North and South, he shows that: lie had, in h's activity during the war, 110 thigber motive for his action*, than a bloody spirit of revenge and hopes o! personal aggranis

We know of no one who is better qualified.to fill .this important position than' our townsman Jesse L. Williams. There is not a man in the country who br ars abetter char* acter, and none more fitted for the place. In fact he is just the man for the position, as there is scarcely another inau iu the State with the-sanae experien.ee and ability, having been closely identified with the Republiran partv eyer since its formation. We think if h« was placed in the- field be would carry the county, and we doubt iflheie is another man in tho Republican ranks that could come any whero

Whenever a man makes up his mind to become a candidate for office, and writes to everybody that his friends are insisting and demanding that he shall become a candidate for this dr that pbsition, you can rely upon it that his friends are not caring much about it, and that the thought in this case is father to tho wisb.

HIS INAUGURATION AS NOR OP 0!II J.

At 2:30 p. m. the Governor and Lieutenant Governor, accompanied by the Governor and Lieutenant Governor elect, accompanied by the legislative committees, appeared in the rotunda of the State House, where both branches of the General assembly, State officers and citizens had assembled. After prayer Governor Allen, without any formal speech, presented General Hayes to the audience, who then took the oath and delivered nis inaugural address, of which the following is a full abstract

The Governor called the attention iof the General assembly to the large ncrease of local taxation and indebtedness found mainly in cities and large towns,

He remarked: this is certainly a great evil, how to govern cities well, consistently with brinciple and methods of popular government is one of the most important and difficult problems of our.time. Profligate ex penditures i3 the fruitful cause of the municipal misgovernment. If a means can be found which wiil keep the municipal expenses from largely exceeding public necessities, its adoption will go far toward seouring honesty and efficiency in city affairs. In cities large debts and bad government go together. The Governor called attention to the statement, the salient points of which are that in four years the rate of municipal tax ation has-increased almost 25 per cent., the total amount of municipal taxes has increased over 37 per cent., and the municipal indebtnes3 has in creased about 1.90 per cent., or more than $13,000,000, In view of these figures the Governor declares be does not think experience justifies the expectation that au adeqnate remedy for those evils, is fouud inlaws as they exist." He thinks that to the subject of local indebtness the Gener al Assembly should apply the principles of the State constitution.

On the subject of State indebtedness he says it is not enough to require, in every graut of special authority to incur debt, us a condition precedent, that tho people interested should approve it by tbeir votes. It is well known how easy such elections are carried under the iufluence of local excitement and local rival ries. If the rule of the State consti tution, which forbids all debts except in certain specified emergencies, is deemed too stringent to be applied to local affairs, the Legislature should at least accompany every authority to contract debt with an imperative requirement that a tax sufficient to par off'the indebtedness in a brief pe riod shall be immediately levied, and thus compel every citizen who votes to increase debts to vote at the same time for an immediate increase of taxes sufficient to discharge them The wisdom of the policy, long since adopted, of placing a judicious limitation on the power of municipal authorities to levy taxes has been vindicated by experience. It must, however, ultimately fail to accomp lish its object if the increase of municipal indebtedness is allowed to go 011. To authorize a town to contract a debt whose expenditures already require taxation up to tho limit allowed by the. law is in its necessary effect tanmount to.a repeal of limitation, an importaut part of our constitution al provisions, which have been so successful in State finances. In the section which requires the creation of a sinking fund and the a'nnual payments of a constantly increasing sum on the principal of the State debt, let a requirement analogous be enacted in regard to the existing local indehtness let a judicious limitation of rates of taxation for which the local authorities may be adhered to, and allow no further indebtness to ba contracted, except in conformnity with those principles and we may, I believe, confidently expect that with iu.a few years the^burdens, of debt now resting oq the cities, and towns of our State will disappear, and that other wholesome and much needed reforms in the. whole admsoistration of our municipal government 'will of necessity follow the adaption of what mwy be called a cash system in local affairs.

The Governor recommends-a pio per care and support of ^.the Stale penal and benevolent institutions the creation of.a.State Board of Charities, and an investigation to determined whether there are not. some State offices that can without detriment be abolished. He also recom meuds concurrence in what Gevernor Allen suggested relative to the Centennial and a short session of the General Assembly.

The members of the' General Assembly. then proceeded to. the Sen ate Chamber, where the oath of office was administered to Lieut. Governrr elect Young.

After .the cereriionies Governor Hayes h6ld a public reception in the Executive Chamber, which was largely attended. "L sJ ri The ReriTalists..

Proposing to Establish Prosperity by Enactment and Make Money by Machinery.

New York, Jan. 11.—The workingmen held a very large n\ass meetiflg last night for the purpose of urgeing upon our law makers the great importance of promptly adopting such measures us will revive our industries in order that employment may be obtained by the tens, and hundreds of thousands in enforced idleness. PeterC'ooper presided, and exCongressman Kelley, and ex-Mayor Opdyke, sent leLters regretting they could not be present. Peter Cooper in his address said, that justice cannot be established, and the general welfare of the Nation cannot be effeetively.promoted, without rescinding the resumption act of 1875, and substituting a currency bill similar to the one in the House of Representatives, passed in 1862, which made the Treasury notss a legal tender for all duties and debts, and made them convertible into interest bearing bonds of the Government. When a true American system of finance is adopted, which shall put all that circulates as money entirely and exclusively under the control of the Government, making it receivable for all duties and debts, employment for all working classes aud prosperity for the whole country will be the natural and permanent result. An address to the worliingmen of the United States.was adopted which says: "When the Government began to contract its credit systematically aud in a large meas* ure from year to year to pay a debt that was not yet due,all other credits, private and corporate, began to contract also, and brought on a panic in the financial affairs of this country, of which wo now feel the most deplorable effects. As a remedy for the evils, the address suggests a currency which will best faciliate the exchange of produces of labor, that this currency may be supported by the credit of the whole country. That the present debt be put as far as possible in the band3 of American people, aud the enterprise and labor of the nation be set to work again. That the National debt be converted into bond3 payable in currency, and bearing lower rate cf interest.

A Tale Unfolded hy tho Cab]P.

jfHE ETERNAL RE CUR ill KG MINISTERIAL CRISIS IN FIUNIE.

Mr. SaySaya He Will Stand More Nonsense, and Retires From McMalion's Cabinet.

Paris, Jan. 10,—Speaking of the crisis in tiie French Cabinet, the Journal Des Debats, this morning, says the ministry was never completely homogeneous, although it had* the appearance of concord, maintained by mutual concessions. Since the opening of the electoral period, disagreement has arisen between ministers belonging to the right and left centres, respecting po litical alliance, and also on the ques tion whether electoral candidates should be patronized by the Govern ment. The Journal Des Debats further alludes to the aggressive tone adopted by some of "the journals towards certain members of the Cabinet, and to the improper manner in which tiie President is brought into controversy for party purposes.

London, Jan, 10.—From special telegrams from Paris to London pap ers, it would seem that the cabinet troubles have arisen from the fact that Mr. Leon Say, minister of fi nance, is a candidate for the Senate from the department of the Seino et Oise, while Mr. Dtiffure, minister of justice, is canvassing in. Charente in concert with Colonel Rocheran DeFort, lately a member of the assem bly from Charente lnferieure, a most decided opponent to the ministry. Yesterday M. Leon Say had two au' diences with Marshall McMahon The Monlteur says he spoke to the President about the attack upon him by the newspapers which he intimated certain officials encouarged. The principal offender is the Figaro, which yesterday affirmed that M. Buffet had ordered the prefect of Seine et Oise to vigorously oppose the senatorial list upon which M. Leon's Say's name appears. The Figaro also publishes along and bitter diatribe against M. Say, of which the following is an extract "For his candidacy on that list he knows the Government blames him, yet he remains. He knows the head of the States rebukes his conduct and be remains. Disavowed, condemned, rejected by his own colleagues, he still* remains. Whatever is said or done he|drinks off every cup and re mains."

The Paris telegram to the London Times this morning, says the struggle at the coming election will be very bitter.

Le Temps gives the following ac count.of the crisis in the ministrv. M. Leon Say, tiie Minister of Fl nance in conjunction with M. M,, Ferr&y and Boncher, who, like the minister, are candidates, for the assembly from the Department of Seine et Oise, issued jointly, a manifesto to electors. President Macma hon, who did not consider the manifesto sufficiently conservative, on Saturday summoned M, Say and requested him to withdraw his name from it. The latterasked.time to re fleet. At a second interview the President said that dissension in the Cabinet was becoming patent. The name of the Minister of Finance figured on the list of candidates hostile to the Government. M. Buffet considered the -liomogenousness of the cabinet irreparably compromised, consequently M. Say's withdrawal was neceseary. M. Say thereupon said: You ask me to resign, and the president intimated that he did M. Say reminded Mc Manon that several times be had offered
