the shape of distinct organization
Five distinguished clergymep of
Brooklyn, n. Y. have issued a circus
lar, calling for the expression OF those
who are willing to sustain the move
ment for the dissemination of liberal
and evangelical principals. The
declarations set forth in the circular,
are in substance First, Unrestrained
liberty to preach the gospel Sat all

of full reciprocal fellowship on terms
of perfect equality with all chris>

the same can be expunged by Aa re-

Personal-Col C. C. G. Thornton in the
Wool and Cloth Business.

Col. G. G. e. Thornton, late of the
Fourth Gu. So Vol. Service, is a
name to be remembered ard cherish
ed by the soldiers of that regiment
stationed at Eft. Randall Dacota Terri
tory, during the last year of the war.
Col. Thornton was in charge of a
regiment of paroled prisoners be-
longing to the rebel service along the
Indian borders. Unlike very many
officers and men far away from
home and civilization, he was noted
for his strict uprightness of conduct
and for yielding to no temptation
with which the service was beset
and surrounded.
Col. Thornton is member of tho
manufacturing firm of +. Riggs, &Co.,
Madison, Wis, owners of the large
woollen factory on Catfish near the
city. They manufacture all styles
of woollens, and be will be found at
their cloth store, No. 6, King st.
Madison, Wis, where is the best and
cheapest place we know to purchas e
cloth stuffs.
They pay cash for wool and any
one from Grant County shall be ia
vored as they wish to open a trade
ont west and purchase large lots of
wool.

DR., 0strander.

A man calling his name DR.. Os-
trander, an illiterate man, and we'll
calculated for imposing on people,
called on one of our Lancaster law,
yers lately 10 leave with him a large
package of notes for collection, the
same obtained for so called profess
ional services in Grant County; the
lawyer declined to engage in the busi-
ness. saying, "these notes are worth
less, as you would fail to establish
that they were given for valuable
consideration, being merely for docs
toring, not for curing nor for any
thing worth the notes" "Well, :"
said the doctor, "what then can |
do with them % The lawyer replied,
''for $500 | will tell you" The doc
tor handed over the fee, when the
lawyer said, "make bona fde sale
and transfer of these notes, and if
you can do it before the signers pub
lish in the Herald a caution notifying
all persons to not purchase such note
or notes, the same having been OBJ
tanned traudulenty or without due
consideration, then the notes will be
good, and may be collected" 1t is
supposed the doctor is abroad try
ing to sell his notes, thought to be
one or two hundred of them each for
$50 to $50, mostly on good men
showing that the simple minded are
simple still, and that few such read

Christ as Judge-He would not Re-
pudiate-He was loyal to Caesar, and
no Copperhead.

The new doctrines of love which
Jesus taught, made it obligatory up
on his followers to reverse every rule
for Judging the transgressor. He
combined wit with moral grandeur
in one of his judicial opinions when
he pronounced this remarkable judg.
ment, Gle that is without sin among
you, let him cast tho first stone" it
so pierced the heart of hypocrisy
that the aristocracy from that day to
this have never got over it. The
whole Pharisaic world to this day
have never forgiven Jesu for that
awful verdict which sat the poor wo,
man free because no innocent person
could be found to execute the sens
tence Of the court. We wonder what
would become Of Judge Mills were he
to sentence the debtor as follows
"He that oweth no man anything, let
him come forward and enforce the
bonds" And the burglar rs follows:
Gle that hath committed no extor-
ton OF robbery, let him bind this
man in chains And the complains
ing miser as follows ale that hath
not coveted his neighbours property,
let him silence the tongue of hatred
belonging to the miser." And the
seducer He that hath not practiced
the deceit OF those who betray silly
women, let him execute the law,
which is to hang the prisoner till
dead"
Once q group of Copperhead enc
mics went to Jesus, thinking they
could entrap him. Said one, "thou
art great, but do tell us, is it lawful
TO give tribute unto Caesar 2" They
waited for a disloyal answer that
would he pretext for summoning
him before Pilates court. The ques
ton was just like the one now up for
taxing the U. S. Bonds: SIS it right
to pay tribute (interest) to the Bond
holder 2" But Jesus answered, rem
der to Caesar (the Bond holder, the
things that are Caesars and to- God
the things that are Gods. Such
burning and patriotic words as these
defined Christianity and separated it
forever from Pharisaism-just as fl
deity to the holders of U. S. Bonds
will combine honest men together
and forever separate them from those
who would repudiate their own and
their country's debt. Jesus rightly
judged as follows Now these fellows
were just as much for the war as any>
body, and just as much for the union
as anyhody-but watch them, for
hardly one will ever pay debt Of
any sort, and all this matter of trib
ute to Caesar is regular piece of
Copperhead unionism Of piece with
that Of Satan in the temptation as
sauit."
Jesus was loyal to the Bond holders
of Caesar. They had lent money to
the Roman government 10 good faith,
and Jesus went for paying them,
even working miracle to pay his
part in coin. He was no Copberhead.

Error Corrected for the Benefit of a
Worthy Physician.

To undo a personal injury and res
store to favor and good name one
we may have injured, when such in
jury was done under q mistaken be-
lief Of duty, affords to US as an editor
rich pleasure.
And such opportunity is now Of
fered in the case of DR.. e. Il. Smyth,
of GAINESVILLE, whom we lately allud-
ed to in the Herald as unworthy OF
support in his profession, and as be,
ing merely a quack doctor and trans
sient specialist. Rev. 2. g. Petty
bone, who had signed reccommen-
dation of DIR. Smyth, having receiv-
ed benefits from his services, called
at our office lately in view OF satis>
flying our mind of the mistake we
had made in our published illusions
to DIR. S. and himself. But we were
not at home and failed to meet Mr..
Pettybone. We have also since been
kindly requested to write to persons
at GAINESVILLE, whom we know to be
worthy and truthful, and learn the
facts as to his standing as a physic-
ian and citizen, which we have done,
the answers being certainly highly
creditable to DR.. Smyth as phys
ician, and also as a gentleman and
citizen.
Trusting that, by this correction
we may more than undo the injury
we did to Dr. Smyth by our late en-.
ratio illusions, we shall ask to be re-
instated in his regards as o friend
and neighbor,

honorable in the eyes of men or ma
tons.
There is a wide spread belief that
U. S. Bonds are not taxed Whereas.
except persons holding small amounts
of Bonds so as to have no incomes to
report for taxation, the incomes of
all itch Bond holders are taxed five
per cent. This is the same tax that
is paid by any other class of capital,
lists, except perhap s the liquor and
tobacco dealers who pay heavier
Doubtless however few large Bond
holders rail to report their incomes
for five per cent. taxation. But the
official reports to Congress, showing
receipts for incomes and the kinds of
income, show also that but very few
comparatively are failing to pay the
five per cent. revenue tax upon their
bond coupon incomes.
The taxing of Bond coupons, 1t Is
very true, has been resorted TO IN
some cases in Europe But the like
is always dangerous as precedent,
for if we tax the interest tenth we
may tax it more and more, the worth
of bonds falling in value equal to the
sum taxed upon their coupons. We
do not like the measure of Gen. Cobb,
but as before stated-it has q meas
ure which when understood will be
approved by all. The tendency of
the affair will be to bring the whole
Bond taxation issue to head at once
that the people may be quickly done
with it. We shall all be glad of the
result coming forth on double
quick.
With unshaken faith in the purity
and purpose of Gen. Cobb, and in his
almost or quite unerring services to
his country in times Of peace and
war, we shall support his reelection.
