Educational .1ddress.

Gen. FallOws, State Superintendent
of Public Instruction, gave to our
people, last Friday evening, from the
desk Of the NJ. T.. Church, a mos,
stirring educational address, rcplete
with golden thoughts and the purest
gems OF scholarly wisdom. Although
the General had been in active
duty for ten days prior to address
ing our people, --having delivered SIX
lectures. attended one or two instl
tutes, beside journeying through a re-
zion whore rail cars are As yet not
known, and consequently must have
been much fatigued, yet his address
indicated nothing Of physical wear.
ness or of mental over. taxation. The
lecture was an intellectual feast of
good things, Astounding in just enough
Of humor to make it paIatable, and
all who heard it went away feeling
richly rewarded for leaving homes
cares and TRIALS and troubles To SHIFT
for themselves while the spirit went
visiting. Although the Generals ar
rival was not known til nearly p
NJ, still thu church was crowded TO
its utmost capacity, with an earnest,
intelligent audience, showing that our
people are ready aud willing to en-
courage at all times that which tends
10 further the cause Of education and
mental advancement. General Fal-
lows has tie hearty thanks Of our
whole community.

HilIprnirc Lecture.

Hon G.. NJ. Webb greeted our pco
pie with a stirring temperance ad
dress last Sabbath evening, at the NJ
+. Church.
The address was neither too long
or too short, but ust right, and full
OF sound practical ideas, and most TX,
cclI1nt suggestions. Mr.. Webb is not
an extreme radical on the hquor qurs-
ton, he believes that while The wills.
by seller has curses enough TO carry,
that society has an ample burden, and
with whom there exists a tendency to
shift off upon the liquor seller aH res
possibility. We agree with Mr.
Webb. Liquor selling is bad enough,
but to indirectly encourage the Traffic,
shielding ourself behind the untcnabIc
breast works OF custom, fashion, gen
Utility aud responsibility, is SO much
mcanrr, that a liquor seller becomes
in a degree respectable in contrast
Mr.. Webb was greeted by large
and attentive audience.

The Democratic members Of Congress have
issued an address TO the people of the United
States, designed TO neutralize the effect of the
indiscree. utterances of Gen. Blair and other
extreme men of the party. But by omttlns
one thing they have tailed to do their cause
an atom of good. 1t has been rumored iha'
this address would contain declard'ion '''

amendments adopted since the war ou' IL
seems that Senator Salisbury and 81 me o'h-
ere who know bos popular Frank Blalrlsm is
omo,o ,ha true blue Democrats of the cOun-
trv fnresa, ~ that this would not do at all, and
refused to sign an address containing it. This
being the case, it is strange that the address
was issued at ALL The correct popular i'm
preston which prevails, that the Democracy
of the country held that these amendments
adopted by force and fraud, as they say, are
void, impairs the vitality and binders the sue
cess of that party more than all else. Until
there is some authoritative denial that this is
the real conservative opinion, all the stereo.
typed mouthing about Radical tyranny and
extravaganza will not have feathers weight
with the masses who have heard it all before.
The omis sion of such a denial. when 1t had
been announced and expected, instead Of
quieting public apprehension as 10 the pur.
poses OF the Democracy, will righttully be
taken as re Affirmation of the worst heresies

The Ku- Klux bill, as it finally passed Con.
gress, gives the President power to suspend
the writ of habeas corpus, in cases Of rebel
lion, contingency for which the original
Constitution itself makes provision. The sec
ton permitting persons residing in the vicini.
ty of Ku-Klux outrages to be prosecuted, was
finally supplanted by much milder provision
which gives the party injured a remedy
against persons who might have forewarned
or projected him. In both Houses the bill
as amended received the vote of the entire
Republican membership except two inconsid-
cradle Senators. Those who make an cutlery
against this bill as violation of the Consti-
tuition are those who have made the same
complaint in regard to all The legislation ne
