We regret to learn that Mr.. Jas
B. Campbell is not as consistent as he
should be in his public speeches. In
"a speech at Pleasant Grove few even
ings ago we are informed he spoke
thus of Hon. John A. Bingham, a man
whose character will not be likely to
suffer detriment from such charges.
Bingham goes staggering into the
the Halls of Congress, a living skeleton,
haunted by the ghost of Mrs. Surratt, I"
As to the truth of the remark we will
say nothing; for it needs no label, and
as to the propriety of Mr.. Can1p6ell's
makingsu an assertion we mightsug
gest that persons living in glass houses
shouldn't throw stones.
DEMoCsATIc newspapers in this
County are making the most pathetic
appeals to members of their party to
turn out and work for their ticket. We
believe that Republicans are doing this
and will do it up to the last hour. We
shall make no pathetic appeals for our
men know their duty and we have
confidence that they will leave no stone
to secure the triumphant cleo
ion of the ticket. Our prospects are
brilliant. Our enemy is disorganized
md disheartened. Honest men of the
Democratic party have concluded to
'ndure the extravaganza and dishones-
y of the Court House Ring no longer.
The bubble is ready to burst and the
masses who have been oppressed there
y are waiting for the explosion. Re
ublicans, to work, and the thing is
one our ticket sciU be elected.

REFORM LEAGUE MEETING
Addresses by Wendell Phillips and
Others.

New YORK, May 9.-The Reform
League met at Steinway Hall to-day.
Wendell Phillips spoke in favor of the
following resolutions:
RESOLVED, That the rebel spirit Of the
South still lives in the Ku-Klux klans
aud must be met as the rebellion was
net by martial law; that we condemn
the increasing power of corporations
as calling for the extinction otcivil lib
erty; that we recognize t(fIght of
women to vote as measures passing the
body polite; that we agree with MIR.
Sumner in his opposition to the San
Domingo scheme, and condemn the con-
duct of those who have endeavored to
overthrow the power Of the Republican
party.
Mr.. Phillips in speaking Of these
resolutions said he would not have been
present at the meeting but for the fact
that he believed the present hour was
more critical than at any time since the
war. His lecture entitled THE South
Victorious had been condemned, but
that the spirit Of rebellion was still
ready to break out at the first opportu-
nifty. The purpose to do so still exists
and had Lincoln been succeeded in the
Presidential chair by worthy success
sor for eight years longer, the victory of
the nation would have been complete
and final. President johnson, how
ever, was only rebel Of more danger
GUS kind than JEFF Davis. He allowed
the battles against the Constitution by
the men wearing the uniform Of loyalty
but more ingenious and cautious
rebels than those who took the
field. This is why the Ku.Klux-
Klar may prove more troublesome
and oe longer lived than those in open
secession. 1t did not strike openly at
the Constitution, and therefore many
can he its friends and palliators with
ont iucurring the odium Of disloyalty.
The Ku-Klux Klan is so organized that
the jury-box may be packed and RENE
edies Of law rendered a nullity, and
unless Grant destroys it there is no
chance Of his having Republican sue
cessor. This is the opinion of some OF
the highest statesmen in the Cabinet.
The great monied corporations Of Penn
sylvania determined to have the Presl'
dent more favorable to their avaricious
interests. Republicanism was now on
trial for life as well here as in France.
Mr.. Phillips spoke Of the San Domingo
project as being finally laid at rest. He
declared it was for the safety Of the COL
ored people that it should be so.
A letter was received from Senator
Sumner, regretting his inability to at
tend.
Addresses were made also by Lucre-
tia Mott and Rev. Highland Garrett.

The Canal Across the Point at Du-
luth.

The Canal Across the Point al Du'
luth.
MADISON, May 9.-The Minnesota
authorities have rather euchred the
United States government and the State
of Wisconsin in the matter Of a canal
across the Point at Duluth by turning
the waters Of the st. Louis river from
their natural outlet at Superior City. In
Wisconsin, to that Of Duluth in Min
nesota. The work on the canal was
commenced last winter while the Wis,
consin Legislature was in session. The
Legislature Immediately passed a reso,
luton asking the United States Attor-
ney General to issue his stay, and Gen
eral Barlow, Attorney General OF Wis
consin, was dispatched to Washington
to push matters through, but the red
tape was 90 thick that long time was
occupied cutting it and by the time that
General Barlow returned with proper
papers, the canal was completed and
the natural harbor at Superior City was
destroyed, and a very interior one ob,
tanned at Duluth.

house and the members OF the Episco-
palian Church who lately recommend.
ed degradation against Rev. Charles E.
Cheney from the ministry met by ap-
pontment. The Bishop was in a con-
ciliatory spirit and proposed to suspend
action on Mr.. Cheney's sentence until
the meeting OF the next general con-
vehtion and forever thereafter if that
convention shall decide that Mr.. Che
ney has been following the doctrine OF
the Episcopalian Church in omitting
the use Of the word degenerate in the
office of infant baptism. Mr. Cheney
to consent to its use in the mean
time. This proposition was TO the ef,
feet that the general convention should
decide between them. Mr.. Cheney took
higher grounds that the omission OF the
word was a matter Of conscience with
him and that ne could not be induced
to use it by any power upon earth, the
meeting adjourned until afternoon. The
Bishop seeing that Mr.. Cheney might,
upon reflection, be induced to change
HE mind. Upon reassembling, Mr..
Cheney adhered to the determination be
had expressed in the morning and read
list OF Bishops and prominent clergy
men who had written, offering their
sym apathy, and announcing their will
ingness to stand by him and also to omit
the word "regenerate" as he had done.
