never has been such a rainy winter since

man bears with him the authority of the
Governor OF Ohio, aud that he has in his
possession about $4,000 worth of goods,
donated to the soldiers, and there is moth
ing to prevent him from selling all these
goods for his own advantage. The name
OF the man is Stricken, and unless he can
explain this business away, he has been
entity of the meanest trick ever perpetra-
ted in the United States.

The Naval Wars with England.

At the commencement of the struggle o
the Uuited Colonies with Great Britain, the
former had no ships, but forty two were
fitted out during the war, and, according to
the best authorities, the American priva-
tecrs roamed the seas in every direction,
and captured during the war eight hundred
and three British vessels, with mcrcIlan-
dizc valued at more than 100000. OF
feet of sixty merchantmen which lefl
Ireland for the West Indies, thirty i've
were captured by the American cruisers
At the beginning Of the war two bundree!
ships were employed in the trade between
Ireland and the West Indies; at the end of
the war there were only forty engaged in
it. In 1872 the United States navy con
sisted of only twenty vessels besides gun
boats. In these, Hull, Decatur, Balm
bridge, Rodgers, Porter, and other gallant
seanIcn boldly went to sea. Their exploits
have been the theme of praise ever since.
1t is estimated that during the first seven
months after the declaration Of war Amer
lean cruisers captured more than fifty
British armed vessels and two hundred and
fifty merchantmen, with an aggregate Of
more than .hrce thousand prisoners, and a
vast amount of booty.

can get, grand link Of the Pacific Road,

Make this road, or even secure the grant
for it, and who doubts where the Pacific
road will go? Now is the golden opportun
ity to secure land, and land of the bes.
quality. Ask for a certain number of miles
on each side Of the road, Of alternate
sections, if it cannot be got otherwise.
The Government will be richer for giving
away half the land in this way.
Shall we fold our arms and wait till
these lands are all taken; and the road loca-
ted on the Platte? Public sentiment de-
mands that the present Legislature shall
not adjourn till some such plan is adopted,
and placed in the hands of our Members
of Congress to be pressed, at the first fav-
orable moment, on the attention of that
body.
Kansas has some claims on the General
Government for some land for internal i'm
provement. Let US ask for it to build

A Davis County "Union" Democrat.

We are creditably informed that Mr..
William Cuddy, formerly Of this place, and
blattering leader of the " Union" Democ
racy Of Davis county, is now Quarter
master in the rebel army. This action CT
Mr.. Cuddy's must, of course, be only in
the spirit of "jcst," as the apologizer
of that faction of men in our county, who,
had they half the manliness Mr.. Cuddy has,
would now be committing by deeds what
they have done by words-assaiI their gov
ernment-would have us believe. All our
citizens will remember with what an oily
tongue this Union man preached compro-
mise last summer, and what terrible ado
he made about abolitionism," and the
lively interest he manifested in the welfare
of the niger. He is now practically carry.
ing out the letter and spirit of such doc
trincs, which were acquiesccd in by the
party with which he acted. Also, while
in our midst, giving vent to his Lnion
sentiments, he was in constant communica-
tion with Major Herbert, formerly of this
place, but who has been since the war
began Colonel in the rebel army. Such
circumstances, any where else than among
the Democracy of Davis county, would
reflect badly upon a PERSONS loyalty, but
here there is not few who will assert that
such actions are "not in the spirit of can
DOR" We must not fail, though, to give
Mr.. Cuddy credit for this expression, made
in regard to the nominations of his party
last September-that Il wos as near a seces-
sion ticket as they dared to make It, A
few more such patriots in Davis county,
whom time would work out, had they the
manliness of a traitor, and they hare alwoys
heretetore acted wM the Democracy."
But they are only "jesting"!

What the People Want.

The people want retrenchmcnt in every
department of the National aud State Gov
ernments. They want Congress to pass
an &C: reducing the salaries of all the clerks
in the different departments, and also that
of many other officers Of the Government
at least twenty five per cent, and their ow1
salaries from three to two thousand dollars
per annum. This can be done without
material injury to any one, and will be a
great relief to the people who have the
taxes to pay. The people also want Con-
gress to pass an act reducing the pay of
Generals, Colonels; Lieutenant Colonels,
Majors, Captains, and Lieutenants. There
is no good reason why private should
receive only sl56 per year, and Captain
of the same company over $500, and a
Lieutenant over $1,000. The disproportion
is too great, and the salaries of the officers
entirely too high. By reducing the Off
GERS salaries to one half what they now are
the Government will save millions of dol
lars annually, and the officers will still be
PAID remunerative wages. Congress, too,
ought to make frauds upon the treasury
punishable with the most severe penalties.
If Congress will pass these acts, and the
Comnander-in- Chief put the army to work
in good earnest to suppress the rebellion,
the people will pay their national war tax
cheerfully. .a

Perhaps our readers will be surprises
when they read this our dcclaration-that
this is the most sensible medical work that
has been published for the last quarter of a
century. We are well aware that many
persons will refuse to open the volume and
peruse its pages, because it was written by
Andrew jackson Davis. Such persons will
of course be governed by their prejudiccs
But those who seek the truth, no matter
from what quarter it may comc-whose
minds are free to accept the principles
founded in Nature-will not hesitate to
study the work and appropriate its advice,
whenever they have cause to believe it will
prove beneficial to them. = The volume
really proposes to minister to mind dis
eased, and even pluck from memory rooted
sorrow" and we think with clearness of
diagnosis which will commend its teachings
to the many. We believe that by the cir
culation Of this kindly monitor-this

NAPOLEON AGAINST PAPER MONEY
Napoleon, the First Emperor, carried on
lis gigantic wars without depreciating the
currency Of France, by simply adheriOg to
system of judicious taxation. At one
period Of his career, when sorely pressed
for money. one of his ministers suggested
an order to compel the Bank of France to
issue its notes secretly in excess of the
legitimate practice of the institution, and
supported his suggestion by the stereotyped
arguments of incontrovertiDle paper theor-
lists. Napoleon listened attentively to the
end, and then sharply replied " No, that
is fraud no government that | command
shall be party to a fraud. We want mon
ey; my people shall have money, and not a

The Voice cf Conservatism.

1t is marvel that Republican admin
istra,ion should hesitate to adopt policy
approved not only by the radical clement
of the country, but thus cmpbatically urged
by that most conservative of all religious
conservators, the Nep York OJserrcr:
"The army has nothing to do with the
relations of master aud slave. 1t is to treat
all honest and loyal men alike. 1t is not
to catch fugitive negroes, nor to send them
to those who claim to be their owners, nor
to inquire whether a colored man is slave
or free man, nor to meddle with the insti.
tutions Of the State in any way. The army
is to know no distinction except that of
enemies and friends. 1t will employ white
men and black men in its service, when
they can be so employed, and use them in
the most efficient manner to crush out the
rebellion. If the entrance of our armies
into South Carolina is the occasion of the
exodus of the entire colored population, it
is no part of the duty of the army to arrest
the fight, or to help it. Whoever stands
in the way of the re-establishment of the
Government oyer the entire Union, must
get out of the way or be crushed. The
relation of one class of the community to
another is not to be regarded as an obstacle
in the progress of our armies, but all men,
whatever may be their condition under the
laws OF the State, are to be treated as
friends or enemies Of the Consolation. We
would welcome the colored men of the South
to the protection Of the aag which the white
men of the South have deserted and defled.
