The Ball Opened.

The New York Day Book in q
recent number, calls upon the De

for the great Jattie Of 1872, in
which the wicked priesthood Of eX-
travagancc, blood and murder--oi
military rule and persecution
must and shall be OUerthroacn at
all haxord" "
AT the close Of long article
this sage journal says, "nothing
will so much aid us and demoral.
ize our opponents as the election Of
our Borough, Ward and Township
ticket in every precinct in the
country and especially in Repabli-
can precincts vhere are can steal a
mdrch on our over confident foe
If we desire to comfort our local
organizations, we must succeed in
the election Of the officers Of Town.

We are glad the war trump has
sounded so soon and that no weak
or uncertain sound has been given,
to deceive or misleNd the true men
who compose the Republican or
ganizatIon OF the country,
Elsewhere, we learn from our
exchanges, the Democracy are
nominating ticket, even in elcc-
ton districts, where they have
been defeated, battered and bruised
in every contest for years, a full
ticket is again presented, We
take up the battle cry Of the Demo
cratic organ, and urge upon the
Republican voters of Alliance and
every Borough and Township in
the county to "dyOase and organize
for Ae great battle Of 1872" And
we agree with that journal, that
nothing will so much aid and de
moralize our opponents as the cleo
tion of our Borough and Town
ship officers In this borough Il
strict party ticket has been nomin.
ated BY both parties, and we appeal
to our party friends to stand by
their ticket and give every candi'
date upon that ticket the full party
vote. Preserve your organization
intact, by the election OF the ticket
it has presented without regard to
side issues, thrown into the con
test, for the purpose Of dividing
and distracting the party. Aai-

were taken with severe gripings Of

CONGRESSIONAL.

We make the following extracts
Of Congressional news from tele-
grams TO the Cincinnati Gazette,
under date of April lst;
REoPENING THE LEGAL TENDER De
CIslON.
d The sensation Of the day, here,
is the action Of the Supreme Court
ON the legal tender question -
There are two cases on the docket,
involving the constitutionality OF
the act Of 1862, but the argument
having been so much argued, the
Court some time ago ordered that
no more arguments would be
heard, the understanding being
that when these cases were reached
tlcy would be decided on the prin-
eiples laid down in the decision re
Gently made The Attorney Gen.
sral, Yesterday, asked the Court to
reconsider this order, and allow
the argument on these two pend
ing cases. The Chief Justice, TO
day, announced that the motion
was granted, and Monday, the
ltth, set for tie hearing. This is
not technically q reopener of the
legal tender question, but it prhcti
eolIy amounts to that because, il
full well satisfied with the recent
decision, there would be no occa-
sion for hearing further argument
1t is given out that Miller, Davis,
Swayno, Strong and Bradley voted
for Tue Attorney Generals motion,
and Chase, Nelson, Clifford and
Field against it. Pretty much
rybody seems to believe that
Clases decision is to be reversed,
and the constitutiopality of the act
in question fully affirmed, and it is
conceded, on all hands, that what
is done should be done quickly.
THE TARIFF BILL.
The lIou e, after allowing forty
three speeches to be delivered, has
finally cot TO work on the Tariff
Lii. General Sctcnck asked an
other day for speech making on
