tection and character that its Seal would confer In- the present constitution no such power exists.but in the new one it will exist whether the traffic be licensed or not. The existence of the traffic will be all the State will require, and if there be no li cense to tax, the power to tax may be ex ercised under the comprehensive provision to tax by "excise or otlierwise." The Gazette is at liberty to note these points and correct the error into which it has fallen. Later Developments In the Holmes Count De falcation. From the Millersburg Republican. As we stated in our last issue, suit has been entered in Columbus against Reed and Newton for the recovery of tlis money.

Owing to the fact that Reed's bond for his last term of office could not be found, if there ever was any, as it is not recorded, the State held back a portion of Reed's amount, in order that attachment might be made, when suit was entered against him, tor the amount not covered by bond. The figures showing the full amount due the State from Reed are as follows, as furnished us by the Sheriff: During his appointment to fill out Weitmau's term $2,193.84. During his first regular term $6,005,28. During tho last being no bond. $8,697.56, making in all $16,896.68.

For tne recovery of the first two amounts, his bondsmen have been sued, and lor the latter amount his property has all been attached. His warehouse has been under lock and key and in the hands of the Sheriff for several days past. The follow ing named persons are his bondsmen: or his first term, or rather the time of his appointment Geo. Reed, John French, J. K.

Raiff, Lewis Donald. Luel- len Allison, Willis Hoagland, Amos Par sons, Ira Wells, Geo. B. Orner and Christian Kno. For his first regular term Geo.

Reed, James Liggett, John French, J. S. Nelson, Thos. Allison, John Carv, Ira Wells, Conrad Schuler, J. Flem- ming ana 1'eter nammona.

As we have above stataed no bond can be found for Reed's last term, and as a consequence, his property has been attached for the above mentioned amount $8,697.56. Ihe amount sued for recovery from Newton, 13 $3,785.34 on first tern, and 11,317.74 on second term. Total amount $15,102.08. His bondsmen are as follows: First term, Joesph H. Newton, G.F.

New ton, Jas. A. Estill, Louis Mayers, Geo. Keed, Leuellen Allison and Wm. Lisle.

Second term, Joseph H. Newton, G. F. JNewton, Louis Mayers, Geo. Heed and James A.

Estill. The total amount sued for by the State from both parties, is $31,998.76. oince writing the above we learn that Reed has given bond for twice that amount of invoice in his warehouse, and has been permitted to open out again, and attend to his business. There was only about $150 worth of stuff in the warehouse after the wool belonging to other parties had been taken out. What Oberlln Bar Done.

The Chicago Tribune gives the follow ing statement of the results due to the labors of the men of Oberlin, Ohio Before the war, 5,000 young men and women had attended college there, and re ceived a strictly anti-slavery education. Every one of these went away a confirmed Abolitionist, and preached opposition to slavery as "holiness unto the Lord." They spread themselves over every State in the Union, and the influence these earnest workers exerted upon the sentiment of the country was immense. Over 200 of them were clergymen, and every Sunday their pulpits, from Maine to Oregon, resounded with anti-slavery doctrines. It was at Oberlin Mr. Garrison got his first batch of apostles to travel and spread his Liberator and its teachings; it was at Oberlin also that the first squad of anti-slavery lecturers organized under the aus pices of the anti-Slavery Society: and it was from there every winter scores of itinerant lecturersl were let loose upon the country to stir up the people against the "divine institution." Often they were mobbed and beaten, but they accounted every stripe "holiness unto the Lord," and went on with their work.

Nothing could stop them and their numbers yearly increased, until the mouths of the cannon, bellowing on the battle-fields of the nation, preached in thunder tones their orthoi.jx doctrines of freedom to all, and sent conviction to the hearts of the people. Nor did they shirk the dangers of war, but both- priests and people, professors and students, went to the nearly every Anti-Slavery man "bore a hand and wrought in it." It was fr.m Oberlin the "patriots" in Kansas received arms, money, and men to fight th; border ruffians of Missouri; it was from Oberlin the great army of Anti-Slavery workers preachers, tsachers and lecturers went forth to work it was from Oberlin no slave fleeing from oppression to freedom was ever returned and it was from Oberlin when the war began that nearly one-half the adult population marched against the Rebellion. And these non-tobacco chewing, non-whisky-drink-ing, non-swearing, "praying, howling ranting, religious fanatics," made "good soldiers, and paused not, and tarried not, and halted not, until the nation was freed from slavery. Debt of Great Britain. There is a general misapprehension as to the amount of the national debt of the British Islands.

It has been the habit to set it down in round numbers as amount" ing to eight hundred millions sterling equivalent to four billion of our money. In fact it is something less. According to the semi-official statement in Mr. Albany Fonblanque's Handbook on the Government of England, the debt at various dates has been as follows: I Year. Occasion.

This makes $3,896,470,000.

Of this is funded 4,479,000 is unfunded.and 52,000,000 is in the form of terminable annuities. The interest on this debts amounts to 36,804,852 per annum a pay-ment the comparative smallness of which is caused by the fact that the rate of interest is as low as three per cent, per annum. Taking into our reckoning all the sums raised for the public and local purposes, the taxation of Great Britain is 102,000,000 per annum, or 3 4s. Id. per head of the population.

Press. The Wool Market. From the Toledo Blade. Eastern manufacturers are buying very sparingly, evidently looking for a decline in the prices of wool, but the Commercial Bulletin thinks their hopes will not be realized. Prices remain firm, and the rates paid throughout the West are rela-tively higher than those prevailing at the seaboard.

This fact will tend to keep large quantities of wool out of market, except at round rates. The wool purchased at current Western rates must have the effect to keep up the prices. The farmer at the West has little ground upon which to hope for higher figures than those which have prevailed since the season opened. Middle men may be compelled to hold their fleeces until the next spring to save themselves. Convention.

After expressing their con. gratulations that Her Majesty had been spared during another year of peaceful and contented reign that the war on the coast of Africa had been suppressei and the dominions of the empire were at peace with all the world, the deputies speak of the slate of the church, the progress it has made and the difficulties that surround it. a i We call particular attention to this lat- terfeature: -But the chiel field of our church operations is among our own people at home, and we are thank ful to believe that amid some unhappy differences or opinion, which impede their usefulness, onr clergy of this generation are united in more earnest efforts than seem ever before to have been made to reclaim the vicious and instruct the Ignorant. In these efforts they are upheld and supported by the sympathy and co-operation of a faithful lady. We cannot indeed hat deplore that so much sin lead ing to misery should still be' found in all ranks, and especially we are pained that among those to whom we look as the very strength of onr population so many families should be ruined by the degradation of a widespread intemperance, i The returns made to the late Convocation on the sub Ject have shown how terrible is the evil and how great the efforts required to meet it.

To resist this particular form of wickedness the Church of En gland has lately made special efforts, in which we are glad to know that we have received your Majesty's countenance. Frorn Tub Daily Beacor of Jnly tho 15. -CHICAGO. Chicago is an ill-fated city. The dread ful destruction by the fire of 1871 has scarcely been repaired before another, fol lows, less terrible but wide spread and fearfully disastrous.

Over a hundred acres of solid buildings have been swept away; from four to six millions of prop erty burned thousands of persons render ed homeless and penniless, and much suffering and misery produced thereby. Fortunately the old and rather inferior part of the city was the scene ot this calamity. Where the fire originated there were acres of cheap wooden buildings, many of them erected as temporary struc tures after the late fire and used' until the new buildings could be occupied. These were like a tinder box under those de licious lake breezes for which Chicago is noted, and before the fire department could get into position the flames were be yond its reach. 1 It is natural that the people of that fire- stricken city should be excited to a panic when they beheld those leaping, uncon querable flames.

Their experience tells a bitter lesson and they might well be alarmed. Happily the winds subsided in the night and at three o'clock this morning the fire was under control. It is probable that the sufferers will re quire aid from the generous people of the country as they are too numerous to be cared for by the citizens of Chicago alone. Should a call be made the response will be liberal as before. The sympathy of all will go out to the distressed who have so suddenly been made homeless and have no means of providing for the immediate necessities of life.

3. Adjust the volume of currency to the wants of the country. 4. Return to specie payments as soon as practicable. 5.

14. Opposed to land grant or other pub-ic aid to railroads. 15. Flatter the Grangers. 16.

Abolish office of County Superin tendent of Education. 17. Boil over with love for the soldiers and their widows and orphans. The resolutions of 1793 are all that is required to make the above platform com plete. The gathering is said to have been not ed for the primitive style of its delegates, and strongly reminded one of the good old days of Gov.

Hendricks, of course, made a speech. The convention had scarcely assembled before the cry of Hendricks! Hendricks! rent the air, and Sir Roderick came to the front i 1 his most amiable mood and told them what to do. The above platform embodies the points of his speech. When he got to the Baxter law he wriggled and squirmed and dodged in a really pitiful way, for he had, as Governor, approved it. Many Democrats had voted for it, but now, as his party would vote for repeal, he mast pave the way.

This is how he did it I think yon are expected to declare in plain terms what legislation yon approve in regard te the sale of intoxicating liquors. My official dnty plac ed me in a responsible relation to this subject. I signed the law now in force known as the Baxter bill, though I thought some of its provisions unwise and impolitic. Before signing the bill, 1 ex amined it with all the care the time allowed would permit. I called'to my assistance two oi the ablest lawyers of the State, and I came to the conclusion that the provisions were not in violation of the Con stitution.

It was not a case of hasty and inconsid erate legislation. It was deliberately considered in both branches of the Legislature. Believing the bill to be constitutional and that it expressed the deliberate judgment and will of the Legisla ture, it was my duty to sign it, to arrest unconsti tutional and hasty legislation, and legislation in derogation of fundamental and essential rights, such as the equality of representation, and not to enable the Governor to oppose his opinion to those ot the neoole 's immediate representatives upon questions of mere policy, or police regulation. This explanation ought to excuse him. It was a hard one to make and should not The Governor showed a willing dispo tance, and on national finance and na tional policy in general, he spoke at length.

If he is to be a candidate for the Presidency no one need doubt his posi tion, but it is taken directly, opposite to Thcrman on essential questions, and more in keeping with the spirit of the west. The Republican Address. The Re publican Congressional Committee has issued an address to "The People of the United States" in which it endeavors to set forth the many good services of the Re publican party in thirteen trying years of its government, as compared with the faithlessness and mal administration of the Democratic party extending through almost thirty years of uninterrupted rule. Very few would doubt the advantage Republicans would have in such a Com parison, -and the committee may Well make the noble record of the party the basis of an appeal for continued confidence in its disposition and ability to do faithful service to the but apart from this the address is a very tame and watery document. It discusses democratic statesmanship, cheap governments, the Louisville canal, the war, public credit, land policy, postal reform, national development, internal improvements and commerce, the -cur rency, and Democratic promises, but not one word is said about Reconstruction, the great question s'nee the war.

i Why is this thusly? On the currency question the address acknowledges a muddle all around and carefully avoids any expression of opinion. It says The currency is in an abnormal condition, and must be reformed. It is undoubtedly true that the Republican party is not agreed how to effect that reform. Neither is the Democratic party. Neither party, as snch, yet sees clearly the right way.

But there are two reasons for be lieving that the Republican party rather than its rival can best treat this great question of the finances: 1. As the former has, hitherto, found the true way through graver difficulties, so we believe it is more apt to find the true way through this. You already have abundant that when Republicans discover the true way they will pursue it. The assurance has not as yet been given by the other party. This is very much like the blind lead ing the blind, and requires the faith of a forty years following in the wilderness.

DODGING THE ISSUE. The pine spun sophistry of the Cincin- cinnati Gazette on the license question is well calculated to deceive. All it says, apparently is so full of can dor and fairness that there really seems to be no other way to view the subject. If the Gazette's premises were correct it would be, but they are radically wrong as we shall try to show. The attention of the editor is called to these statements He says the adoption of the license clause leaves the whole subject with the Legislature, the people, where it is safe.

It does not say license but only permits license if it be thought best by the peo ple. Under it they miy prohibit, license or regulate, but its adoption will not es tablish license. We demur to this reasoning most de cidedly. True, either proposition, if adopted, will require legislation to carry into effect, but look at the fact; the question is put in its absolute form "For License," "Against License." It is being considered on its merits as thus presented and almost without exception, tho.se who will vote "for License" would vote tor a license law, and vice versa. The Gazette dodges the issue when it says the question is whether the people shall have full control of the question through the Legislature.

No one understands it and no other paper but the Gazette puts it in this shape. Suppose "For License" should carry by a large majority: how would our legis lature interpret the expression Would it not be understood as the voice of the people "for license," and would not those who so voted demand that their majority be respected Who among them would say he meant no license when he voted for it? How many would then accept the Gazette's construction of the issue of today? Our political history is full of similar campaigns. In when the question of the annexation of Texas was agitated in Congress, annexation was voted down by an overwhelming vote. The Jssue was made in the ensuing Presidential can vass ana James K. polk was triumphantly elected upon it.

The same Democratic Congressmen upon re-assembling in December, with only two exceptions, John P. Hale and another, voted for annexation and that policy was immediately carried out. The voters of Ohio are intelligent men and the know ust what they want. Th eir vote "for license" would be made in such positive form to the Legislature that that body might rightfully be denounced as recreant to its political trust if it did not heed it. But it would obey and a license law is just as sure to follow a vote "for license," as night follows day, and as speedily.

The next, and still greater mistake of the Gazette is in its declaration that, by voting down the license clause, we pre vent a tax being levied on the traffic. This reason implies that the Gazette is willing to swallow license to get the revenue, but regards it as wrong per se. As the traffic will exist it wants it to pay handsomely to the public treasury. If the Gazette were correct to begin with their might be some force in what it says, but it is so grossly in error that its arguments necessarily fall to the ground. To prove this we call its attention to the fact that, without the license clause the legislature will have unlimited power to tax the traffic as much or as little as it may please; that it will have complete jurisdiction over it, so far as revenue is concerned.

Sec. 5, Art. 13 of the new constitution is as follows Sec. 5. The General Assembly may impose taxes by license, excise, or otherwise, and also provide, by equitable rules, for taxing, franchises and income derived from investments, The committee of the Convention appointed to prepare an address explaining the changes in the constitution, assigned as the reason for so amending the financial policy of the State that it was intended to prevent a too great increase of the weight of taxation on the property of the people, and to open other sources of revenue, based on business employment, professional callings, To license, and to tax, are two very distinct powers, and one by no means necessarily follows the other.

We may license and not tax, or we may tax and not li cense. The Government imposes an excise tax on the liquor traffic yet it does not li cense it. Many States grant free licenses, and others accompany them with a tax. We might adopt the license clause and yet, without the power to tax as conferred in the section quoted, the license could not be taxed. The only question to be settled by the adoption of the license clause is that thereby the State might le galize the traffic and throw around it BARBERS.

Drunketi- nese should be punished as well as selling to the intoxicated.

The Democracy of New Hampshire promised faithfully to repeal the prohibitory liquor law enacted in 1855 upon their accession to powerj vBy a division of the Republican vote at the polls, they succeeded and their legislature has just closed its first session.

Boyle, a New York astronomer, takes a view different from others concerning the new visitor in our northern sky. He argues very strongly that it is the same distinguished, historic comet whose terrible aspect in 1556 frightened Charles V. 08 his throne, and forty-three years before the Christian era figured as the "Spirit of Cassar" taking its place amongst the gods, beyond which time it was observed 618 and 1194 B. C. It is al so to the near approach of this comet to the earth about the period assumed as that of the Deluge that Whiston attributes the catastrophe, and as time will show that comets' tails are largely composed of wa tery vapors, there may be some truth in the poetry charged to the fancy of that astronomer.

But it will not strike us this time, and as it does not return for about 158 years it will be a matter of small concern to us personally whether it will then fulfill the the evil predictions of to-day. We call- the Cincinnati Gazette's at tention to another point on which it is muddled. It says "all legal power over the liquor traffic exists in the legislature save as it is expressly restrained by constitu tional limitations." Hence it argues that the legislature will have the inherent power under the license proposition to pro hibit if it chooses. Granting that this view is sound, we ask the Gazette what becomes of its statement in another article "that, if the 'no license' clause be adopted, local option is impossible." The "no clause does not mention "local option," and all it does say points to restriction on the traffic and not on the legislature except that it cannot grant license. Free trade may exist under it Now, apply the Gazette's say "all legal power over the traffic exists in the legislature save as expressly restrained by constitutional why could not "local option" be adopted The Gazette has permission also to explain this point.

Notwithstanding the dullness of trade, there is considerable bustle noticed in the hoop-skirt business. It is said the reason that Vassar College was not represented in the late regatta, is that the young ladies cannot agree on on the beau oar. A gentleman who appeared at tho police station at one o'clock this morning, wuh two black eyes, expressed himself as op posed to the "early closing movement." A telegraph operator who wa9 asked for news of the missing cable ship, tele graphed back, "So foul and yet so Faraday I have not seen." The Transcript says "one of the best bill iard players in San Francisco is a Chinaman." He's probably more accustomed to the cue than Americans.

The coopers ot New York think of start ing a weekly paper to advocate their in terests. We should su cr crest the "Tlie Bar rel Organ, or the Cooper's Cask Aid," as an appropriate title. There is evidently a wide difference in the value of precious stones in Great Britain. The family of Livingstones gel but $15,000 from Parliament, while Sir tiar- net, who thrashed the Ashantccs, got eight times as much. I was led to believe that you would like to buy a copy of this work," said a book agent "Lead to believe yes, and had brass enough to call me from my dinner," was the enraged reply, "but you can clear out, for I've got no tin." "That man's on his mettle," said the agent, as the door was slammed in his face.

The last sapient suggestion on hydropho bia from the great medicine man of New York is that if dogs' teeth are filed there will be no danger from their bite. This reminds one of the negro minstrel's method of destroying mosquitos, first to catch the insect, and then knock his teeth out with a brick. First New York Bummer.

Bill Stubbs had been reading "The Starry Flag," and was seized with a great desire to imitate the hero of that thrilling tale. Bill was not exactly the boy you would select as the hero of a story. He wasn't one of your bright-eyed curly-headed boys, with a frank, manly face, incapa ble of a mean action. No! Bill's hair was of a fiery hue; and his freckled face, ornamented with a pug nose, and weak eyes, was not to inspire you with conli-dence in its owner. And, as for honesty, the fishermen all swear there was not a greater thief or rascal on the Cape Bill didn't live with a misery uncle who kept all his money from him, and' nearly starved him.

Bill hadn't any money. His father was dead, and "the old woman" as he irreverently called his mother, tooE in washing; ana little lielo she got from her hopelul son. lie didn't pass his time in nsmng, ana spona tne money he received in books! Bill wasn't such a flat as that. He used to play hookey from school, and loaf around the wharves to see the fishing-boats come in and if he did get any money, he spent it for cheap cigars. Bill didn't see why he shouldn't rescue anme rich man's daurrliter from a walerv grave, and be well rewarded and received into His tamuy as well as inose iciiows in books! Bill used to loaf around the docks more than usual after this; and one morning his attention was arrested by a piercing scream.

Rushing to the spot, Bill saw came from the daughter of Squire Wilson, who was boarding at the "big house" on the hill. Her golden head was just visible sh- tossed about on the angry waves. Bui saw that here was his chance, and he struck out for the young lady. Her screams were redoubling as she saw Bill approaching; but he valiantly growed her, and dragged her ashore, wtieiu her frantic father was awaiting to receive her. He didn't embrace Bill and call nun his dear son, and offer him a check for a thousand dollars for a beautiful yacht on which he" had long looked with yearning eyes, and sighed for her posses-sion.

No! He hit Bill a clip over the head that nearly stunned him, and asked him, a rough tone, what he meant uy ing his daughter when she was bathing, and insinuated that he had bettor leave before he broke every bone in his body. Bill didn't go home that noon with joy depicted on his face, and announce to his delighted mother that they were raised irom poverty to amuence; uutnesiunit in by the back way, and was caught by the old lady and most awfully tanned for playing hookey and getting hia clothes wet. Bill vowed that the boys who saved rich girls in the story-books were frauds, and he didn't believe such things. ever haDDened. This evidently had a bad ef fect on Bill, for he went to the bad; and, instead of growing up an honest man, and entering a business-house, and work ing his way up irom unaer-ciem to partner, and marrying the old gentleman's daughter, and living to a green old age, beloved by all who knew him, he joined a gang of thieves, and was caught cracking a bank.

He now resides in an elegant stone building, supported by the Stale. He employs his time in Breaking stone; and often he thinks what he might have been if he had never read those pernicious books. Yankee Blade. A miracle at Lonrdes. The Weekly Register and Catholic Standard is responsible for the following: Mrs.

Baker, an American lady, on the 25: ii of at Lourdes with her husband and sister, both of whom are Pr.atstants About a year before Mrs. Baker met with a serious accident, by which her spine was dislocated. She had suffered acutely, had been paralyzed during the winter, and at the time of her visit to Lourdes, was quite unable to go up or down stairs. For two days after her arrival she was unable to bear the short drive from the town to the Grotto.but on the morning of the 28th she made up her mind to brave the cold and the suffering entailed by any movement. She went in a carriage to the grotto and was assisted down into the bath.

On entering the bath her sniffings became more acute, and seemed almost beyond her powers of endurance. Her sister in the true spirit of a Protestant, exclaimed, "There was no need for you to come to Lourdes to take a cold bath," but the faith of the poor lady never failed for a moment. She begged her sister to rub her limbs. Immediately an indescribable feeling of comfort took the place of her pain, and she was cured. In a few moments Bhe hastened to the Grotto to return thanks to Our Lady the Health of the Sick.

Her husband knelt beside her, joining his thanksgivings with those that arose from her heart. He has since published a letter giving an account of her former state, and declaring that she is perfectly well and able to walk as she used to do iu her youth.
