THE honesty rand scandor of the
Curriers' attack upon Captain OAR
LING are most clearly seen in its false
hood in charging him with having re-
ceived FOR has oton personal gain and
profit, the entire expense of maintain
ing the County Jail for the space. of
two years, Sc, 653 43. tits we'll known
that this amount is in effect the ap-
preparation made by the Commission
ers for the board, washing and other
expenses of the prisoners. It will
doubtless be a matter OF agreeable
surprise to tax payers to be thus in
formed that the expense of maintain
ing the County Jail, in county of
$4,000 Inhabitants, under Captain
DARLING's administration, has only
been $3,326 II per year. We insist
that so far from rejecting upon his
integrity, tits strong and induDitable
evidence of his economy and faithful
attention to that important branch of
county expenditure.-The people cry
out: Shame upon the men. who for
urely partizalf purposes resort to such
misrepresentation and deceit. tt

Temperance and Politics.


There was danger few, months ago
that the Republican, party would be
seriously injured by the injudicoas
friends of temperance, in their efforts
to engraft upon its platform in some
of the Northern States the principle
of prohibition. But we are glad to
note sense of returning reason and
practical political judgment in Massa-
chusetts. Minnesota Illinois, Iowa,
and other States where the question
was likely to enter into State spel;ties
in the Fall campaign. The Chicago
Journal says that one noteworthy
feature of the recent session Of the
Illinois Grand hedge pf.Good Tenn
plars, at Decatur, was the unanimity
with, which the delegates repudiated
the idea of organizing the temper
ance element of the State into q polit-
ical party. This idea originsted with
certain impractieable,l tlieush no
doubt sincere, men, whose zeal was
allowea ITO get the; better of their
discretion, and who seem to think
that, because Etemperances is a good
thing, it is car2ble of swallowing up,
Immediately, every obstacle that him

reflect carefully, and Iexamipe With
unbiased minds the field of opera
tons, they would be, or ought to be,
able to see thatte Organize. sthe tenn
perance army into political party
would beto destroy its Vitality, and
place the temperance reform where
it was twenty FIVE or thirty years ago.
Such movement as the organiza-
ton of separate party was threat
ened in Indianapo is last winter, but
it was discountenanced by the more.
prudent of the temperance men, and
never assumed any shape or vitality,
and will not be likely to enter into
the campaign of next year. 1t ought
to be apparent TO every earnest friend
of loyalty that the great mission of
the Republican party is to settle the
questions growing out of the, late war
of the rebellion. The country is suf-
fering on account of the delay in Re-
construction, and the Republican
party should address itself to that
important work, and not fritter away
its strength and divide its forces upon
questions of local or moral reform.
