THE WIDOWS AND ORPHANS.

A traveller in Germany writes to the
Ezening P0st-In the latter days Of my
iourneying, always on the same trains
with the wounded, as the fact Of the ter
rible carnage had become evident to the
masses, the desire exhibited by the wOm-
en- at the little stations to obtain inior-
nation on the arrival of the trains was
noticeable. As the cars rolled up to the
platforms numbers might frequently be
seen weeping bitterly as if in anticipa-
ton Of some terrible announcement.
Women frequently followed by children
clinging to their hands or dresses, would
hurriedly pass from car to car; the rapid
demand with trembling voices for infor-
nation from the inmates; and, in more
than one instance, the wild cry Of griel
and horror, followed by a rush Of the
crowd carrying back fainting, sorrow
stricken form, told only too truly the
desolation that had fallen upon some
household. Truly, as a French ofl-
Ger remarked, there viii be many graves
this year in Prussia, and many the VIZ VIE
ows and orphans in the pleasant Iasi,Ii ll- .i,o
I land who viii not be comiorteu IoI Wy ~

NORTHERN PACIFIC ROAD.
WHAT THE REPUBLICAN PARTY
HAS DONE FOR LABOR.

Ist Among the first acts of the Re
publican Congress, after some necessary
measures to resist the Democratic Re
bellion, was the adoption of the Home
stead law under which, the whole mass
of the public domain is opened to the pos
session and ownership of the laboring
man, upon the condition of settlement
and cultivation, at the nominal price Of
$40 for 100 acres.
ID Provision was made by which
this vast property IS largely enhanced in
value, and rendered accessible to men
of limited means, over the lines of the
Trans-continental Railroad, the con-
struction of which, had been delayed
under Democratic rule, by the fear that
free labor might possess this rich inheri-
tance, to the exclusion of slave labor.
sd. The whole system of servile labor
was abolished by the Republican party,
in spite of the united and persistent Op-
position of the Democracy in Congress
and on the battle field.
4th. Again, the whole mass of unre-
Quilted labor was lifted to the dignity Of
the country's defenders, thereby giving
it enlarged opportunities, enabling 1t to
command the attention and the sympa-
thies of the nation, and rendering its
future subjection to bondage absolutely
impossible.
5th. This whole class was endowed
with citizenship and all its rights and ad-
vantages-against all of which acts, the
Democrats, in Congress and in the
States, recorded a united negatiVe-yet
it is easy to see, that each successive
step added immeasurably to the dignity
and power of labor.
9th. The whole remaining public
lands of the .S0afkh, were reserved from
sale, and appropriated to the exclusive
use of actual settlers, by which, the
landIess laborers of that section, come
to the ownership, of more than 45,OoO,-
600 acres, sufficient for half million oi
homes of 50 acres each, and by which,
also, the further progress of land mono
poly in that section IS forever stopped.
9TH. 1t has given guaranty by sol
enan and unanimous declaration of the
House of Representatives thatthe future
land policy Of the party shall be in the
! interest of individual occupation and
ownership, and opposed to sales OF
grants under conditions, which viii adj
NIT the further growth Of personal OF
! corporate monopoly.
9Th. And finally it has given practical
evidence of its fidelity to the principles
of land distribution to actual occupants
through its organized land committees
and in the defeat of numerous land
grant bills, at the recent session Of Con
! gress.

The relative beauty Of the sexes ia

that these impartial French observeIg

among created beings. IN this opinioa

entire concurrence. But Of the reladca1
between male and female beauty in
other countries we can speak more freely.

A DEMOCRATIC PAPER ON THE
GERMANS

The EIillsborough Gazette, Democrat
ie organ of Highland county, says:
France fights the battle of Liberty
and Equality, against aristocrahc priv
iIeqe and despotism. She has the brains
of Europe, and in her success the hopes
Of science and civilization are centered.
How anv one who has read history
carefully can for a moment expect this
great nation to be whipped by beer and
saurlZraut in uniform, is mystery only
to be explained on the ground that those
who pretend such an opinion are only
throwing out bait for the vote of the
saurlSrauts aforesaid.

| Conventions united in denouncing
| grants of land to corporations and mo-
nopolies. If these resolutions refer to
the immense number of schemes which
have been placed upon Congress during
the past two years, to aid local railroads
and other corporations, they are wise
/ and oppOrtune. Scores of such bills
were introduced at the last session,
though very few if any of them were
passed. It is well for the people to
warn their representatives against the
mass of such bills which are now pend
/ ing in Congress. For myself / never
introduced nor voted for such a bill
| But if these party resolutions are inten-
ded to condemn the legislation which
has given land to aid in the construction
| of the great continental railway between
/ the Atlantic and Pacific, they are not,
in my judgement, either wise of oPpor-
tune. The opening up Of the vast will
derness on both slopes of the Rocky
mountains to settlement and civilization
was nearly or quite impossible without
these great roads. Within the last fif-
teen years both the political parties have
recommended in their national conven-
tions the building of a Pacific Railroad.
More than ten years ago William II.
Seward made a speech on the passage
of the first Pacific Railroad bill through
the Senate, in which occurred this strik-
ing and suggestive passage:
81 want it to be known, ! want it to
be seen and read of all men here and
elsewhere, that at the very day and houl
when it was apprehended by patriotic
and wise men throughout the land that
this Union was falling into ruin, the
Congress of the United States placed
upon the statute book, for eternal record,
an act appropriating ninety-six millions
the largest appropriation ever made
to bind the Northeast and the Northwest,
the Southeast and the Southwest, the
East and the West, and the North and
the South by physical, meterial bond
of indissoluble union.
The bill to aid in the construction of
the Union Pacific Railroad became a
law in 1862. In 1864 the bill was passed
to aid, by grant Of lands, the building
of the Northern Pacific road. Both po-
litical parties were divided in regard to
these bills but the completion of one of
the roads has fully vindicated the Wis
dom of the legislation.
The most important law passed at the
late session of Congress relating to
grants of land was an act amendatory
of the law of 1864 in regard to the
NORTHERN PACIFIC ROAD.
1t allowed the company to issue their
own bonds and mortgage the lands al
ready given to them, but it enlarged the
grant but little if any. On the passage
of this amendatory act both parties were
divided as they were in 1862 and 1904.
l have stated these details for the reason
that attempts have been made to repre-
sent that at the last session large grants
of land were recklessly made to railroad
corporations.

Excess of Grant .Rsy7 8S7 CPS
Thus the Government levied upon the peo-
pie nearly S3S, ,OOO, COO more during the firsL
year of Grants Administration than
Tohnson's Admin9stration. Ad1iir This is a reduc-
ton of taxation with vengeance!
Although this comparison of The
Sentinel only partially shows the in
crease in the revenue under the
faithful execution of the laws
bv President Grants officers (as four
months, and the best four months for
revenue, of f1S6S-9" were under Grant,
and not under Johnson), it is an un-
whiting testimony of their fidelity from
the lips of an enemy. Remember that
there was no increase of any taxation,
internal or external, during these two
years. The same taxes Except, indeed,
one or two reductions, instead of en-
largements) and the same laws existed
in the first fiscal year of President
Grant as in the last fiscal year of Pres
| ident Johnson. But during Johnson's
administration the Whiskey Ring
reigned almost supreme; and manu-
/ factured whisky, marked ''tax paid, y
was sold at less than the tax, saying
nothing of the cost of manufacturing.
/ Corruption stalked unabashed through
every avenue of the public service,
and the Treasury was robbed by men
| kept in Office for partisan purposes
/ only. When a faithful Commissioner
urged removals of suspected officials
| his appeals were almost always in
/ vain. And when these thieves were
/ detected and convicted, Presidential
! pardons, in large majority of cases,
were ready for them. From this de-
moralization, speculation and pIunder
/ which so naturally followed the rec.
reancy of their chief. Gen. Grant res
! eued and regenerated our revenue SER
vice, and what under Johnson went
into the pockets of thieves, went, un-
der Grant, into the Treasury, enabling
taxation to be reduced. Tho Whisk \
Ring became powerless. Officers whC
were suspected or inefficient were re
moved; and If the new appointees fail.
