The Washington correspondent OF

that the President ought to be and

Rayenna Democratic Caucus,

The Democrats of Rayenna Township and of
the Incorporated Village of Rayenna, are re-
quested TO meet at the Town Hall, in said vii
lage, on Saturday evening, March 25 1871, at Z
O'Clock, 7. n, for the purpose Of nominating
township and corporation tickets to be support
ed at the coming Spring election
We would suggest to the Democrats of the
several townships in the county, the propriety
of putting in nomination straight-out Demo
cratic tickets to be supported at the coming
Spring election, and that the nominations be
made at an early day

"Business."
Messrs. Scott, Chandler, Wilson
Rice, and Nye report in substance tc
the Semitic that the South is one heav'
| ing volcano, bursting out hideou:
foods of Ku-Klux who make it a JOY
to hang, burn, rob, whip, and gener-
ally maltrcat the blacks. Leaving
any political remarks on this text &c
another occasion, let us look at tine
volcano aforesaid in truly business
light. The same day the committee
uDfolded its tale of woe 10 the Senate
we find the following exhibit made OF
the financial and commercial tone in
this city: 'sThe gold market contin-
ues steady" Southern State secur-
tiles were firm, the government bond
market was firm" and in cotton "the
market was dull Translated into
common phrases, all this means that
business men recognized no disturb
ing cause to send gold up or Federal
or State securities down, and that the
best impression in cotton circles was
that there would be good crop this
year. Now, if there was any truth at
the bottom of this wretched admins
tration's attempt to stir up a Ku-Klux
.fuTOTe, would not business men, as
business men, have shown the exist
ence of such truth in their quota
tions? A prominent statement is that
the negroes are in deadly terror owing
to the menaces or violence of secret
armed bands, and that in consequence
dreadful state of social disorganiza-
ton exists. Were this so, would it
not most injuriously affect the indus
trial pursuits of the South; would
not the negroes be too intent on es.
Gaping persecution to take any great
interest in labor contracts: and would
not their (alleged) prosecutors be do
ing very foolish thing to hire lot
of hands and then harry them so vig-
orously as to render them unable to
do their work and earn their wages
ANY such terror among the blacks and
brigandage among the whites would
instantly reflect itself upon the great
agricultural interests of the South it
would be known here at once among
our business men that there must be
a very material falling off in the cot
ton crop; and on any such informa-
ton we can readily perceive how the
markets would be affected. Gold
would go up, bonds down, Southern
State securities become drug on the
market, and the sharp fluctuation in
cotton affect almost every bank and
mill in this country or Europe. A
great shock would be given business;
and yet, for all the doleful story put
forth by the Senate committee, bus
lness presents no shock at all. To-
day the Red demonstrations in Paris
are more appreciably felt in this city,
the business center of the continent,
than the Ku-Klux tale. The South,
per Nye, Chandler, ct aZs., is in the
throes of another rebellion, and yet
upon Change the Sanguinary Sur
rounder or Executory Gnome, if men,
toned at all, are spoken of in the same
breath with the latest stock-market
joke. This is not the way business
men treat a real peril. They are
shrewd generation, and when polite
ians were all abroad in 1861, not know
ing wha4 to do, ''the street" was set
ting its house in order for desolat-
ing war. Were there any truth in the
Ku-Klux it would not be less sensi-
tive World.

Grants Chances.

Very many of the Radical papers
are speaking right out in meeting
against the great Ulysses. AS spec
linen of the careless way they talk we
copy the following from the St. Paul
Despatch, published by the Messrs.
Hall, formerly of this place:
The President and his friends have
chosen their issue to go before the
people, but it is fatal one. Presi-
dent Grant may be, quite likely will
be, renominated. The office-holders
manipulation of caucuses and conven-
tions may place him before the peo-
pie in 1872, but we believe we speak
within bounds in saying that if U. S.
Grant is the nominee of the Republic
can party he will go forth to his de-
feat, and the overthrow of the organi-
zation which placed him in the Presi-
dental chair. Party discipline will
do much, but the men who vote the
Republican ticket are too intelligent
and thoughtful to blindly follow an
administration whose course has been
such as to forfeit public confidence.
Overheard with Jonah or the ship
will be dashed upon the breakers.
Is it "loil" to talk thusly about "the
Government ?"

THERE can be no question about the
fitness of Simon Cameron as the lead
er of the administration forces in the
United States Senate, in helping Grant
do his dirty jobs. Here Is q resolu-
ton which was passed by the House
of Representatives, April 80, 1862, by
Y9 to 46, when that body was nearly
two-thirds Republican:
Resolced, That Simon Cameron,
late Secretary of War, by investing
Alexander Cummings with the con-
| troll of large sums of public money
and authority to purchase supplies
| without restriction, without requiring
from him any guaranty for the faith
| ful performance of his duties, when
| the services of competent public Off
| GERS were available, and by involving
the Government in vast number OF
contracts with persons not legitimate
| ly engaged in the business pertaining
to the subject matter of such contracts
especially in the purchase of arms fol
future delivery, has adopted a policy
| highly injurious to the public service
and deserves the censure of the
| House."

In addition to their absolute safety, these

one-thifI, and still have perfectly reliable IN
yestment
