Nov, Gentlemen, / have here pre-

all kinds of liquors, within the Town
Of McConnslsville. You can enlarge
upon it, and make the same keep ng in

liberty to drink more perfect and eff.
cient. Thsquestion, perhaps, with you,
is how will such an ordinance be a
source of evenue Let mo tell you
according to its provisions, the %lieOnse
drinkers are residents ofthe County. 1t
is not confined to Corporation drinkers.
Suppose then 100 persons of the ooun-
ty, take out full license, tor all kinds OF
drink, $4,000 each, you bring into your
Treasury 9 $1,000. Say that $50 persons,
. want to drink under the 925 license,
. you get $3.50. Say that 200 per.
sons, desire to drink under the $4,000
license you have $4,000. Say thkt 25C
persons, desire to drink under the s15
u license, you have $3.50. Say that 800
Il persons desire to imbibe lager beer
? &c. You have from them $4,000. Anc
a say that 500 persons, desire only Small

have from these temperate drinkers
$1,000. Then it will be seen, that i

to exempt the principal Of the public debt as
well as the interest from the operation of the
Legal-tender act. We offer no proof of this
because it is matter of general notorety.
The fact that when Mr.. Pendleton frst an
nounoed his view, it startled the country as a
novelty, may stand, for the present, in the
place of proof It is true that Mr.. Stevens
in 1864, expressed the same view; but so set.
tied was the public mind in a contrary opi-
Mon, that Mr. Stevens was regarded as having
uttered one of his crotchets, and it was i'm
mediately forgotten. What the public thought
on this subject accorded with what the Secre-
tary OF the Treasury did; and on the plainest
principles of public obligation his action
bound the Government, even if he misin-
terpreted the law.
We trust to make this very clear: but we
must pass for illustration from the financial or
arlthmetical relation of principal and interest,
which we have been discussing to the legal
relation of principal and agent. The law on
TINS subject rests on solid grounds of natural
justice, and borrows nothing either from trans
cendental ethics or chivarous and fastidious
sense Of honor. The law-the law as Mr.,
Pendleton well knows, alike of ancient Rome.
all the States of modern Europe, and of this
country-is that the act of a recognized agent
binds his principal, if when it comes to his
knowledge he does not disclaim it.. Segper
qul non pTOh6et pro Sc inteTUeHire Ddnddre creIi-
tT. The principle is as old as the science of
iurisprudence and although the Government
is not amenable to a court, it is unquestionably
bound by the obligations of universal
Justice ON which the principle rests. Congress
knew that the Secretary of the Treasury inter
preted the law as exempting the principal as
well as interest of the public debt from the
operation of the legal-tender act, and their
acquiescence equally bound the Government
whether the Interpretation was according to
the original intention of Congress or not.

The Elections To-day.

From the NJ Y. Herald
The elections in Ohio, Pennsylvania, and
Iowa come of to-day; but there is very little
to be gained for either of the contesting parties
by the result. Both Republicans and Demo-
Gratis are fighting on their old party lines, and
as it is a new party which is to decide the des-
TIMES of the country in the future, after all the
pending elections are over and the dfJriS swept
away, it matters very little how the Keystone
or the Buckeye State goes, for either party.
One thing however, is pretty certain; radi-
calsm is condemned, and whatever partial
success it may meet with i'll the election of a
few candidates will be due more to personal
than political considerations. Nor will its
defeats, which it is very likely to receive in
greatly reduced maiOrities, be credited to the
popularity of the Democratic party-though
the Democrats will undoubtedly claim the
hOnOrs-but to the conviction in the public
mind that the radical party has done as much
mischief as the country can stand and yet live,
and that its career must be checked.
We cannot be surprised at the little interest
felt in these elections in our own community,
when we find so much apathy concerning them
at home. In Ohio there is some little life in
the canvass, it is true, but that is mainly
owing to the fact that there are good many
live orators ON the stump. In Pennsylvania,
however, there is not even show of interest
in the elections. The people appear to be
given up to agricultural fairs and horse exhi-
bitiOns. The stumps are vacant, and Andy
Johnson's policy was not so much as discussed
during the past week. The probability is that
the vote cast in that State will fall off from
that of last year by hundred thousand.

grasp at the highest Office, and form their com
binations to reach it IL matters not how un-
principled the combination may be, or how
much il may sink of all we deem honorable
and elevating to the national character. The
plot is laid, and the political harpies go to
work. The plans of several of these are now
being unfolded, and we only learn more of
their vileness as they come more prominently
into notice. Among the demagogues are
Chase, Colfax, Wade, and others of lesser
nete whose political fortunes hang upon the
movements of the greater orbs. Chase, after
teaching the country a lesson of corrup-
tion and financial ruin which threatens to
crush our progress, now combines all the
ramifcations of the vast banking power and
the Treasury Department to bolster up his
Presidential schemes. 1t matters not how
many hundred millions of dollars it costs the
country to carry out these plans for that is
not an item which enters into the brain of our
modern statesmen, so called. Self first and
country afterwards, is their motto, and they
carry il forward with zeal which threatens
ruin. This motto must be changed, or, rather
we must seek for men who are governed by
country first and self afterwards. Such men
we have in Grant Sherman, Thomas, and
Sheridan, and these are the true leaders to be
placed in responsible positions. In fact, we
require sixteen years of straightforward, mas
terly management of the Government. This
would be four years each for the great soldiers
we have mentioned. Let the people commence
with Grant, and follow up the list we name.
This is the true method of restoring confidence
to the country, and the way also to overthrow
the ranting demagOgues who mean nothing
but ruin financially and politically.

Europe, and may consider that the glory Of
defending the temporal power of the Church
might not justify the risk of Prussian inter
ference and the certain alienation Of the
Italian people. Unless France sends troops to
Rome, there is great reason to believe that
this revolution will be triumphant. Sudden as
it is, IL has been long meditated, and is too
powerful for the Pope TO withstand without
help. The only practical question is whether
help can be found.
