Extract from a Speech Delivered
by Hon. George 81. Pendleton
at Loveland, O..

REPUBLICAN DISREGARD OF THE CON
sTITUTICN.
But if we turn from the consideration
Of these questions to the other phases
of our condition, what ground is there
for Mr.. Sherman's euiogy on his par
ty? Our Government was-I say
was-a Constitutional Government
1t was framed by the delegates from
States. 1t was a creature of States,
endowed by them with all the powers
it possessed, and was SO plentitully
endowed that it could of itself, per-
form the duties, define the powers,
and perpetuate the existence which had
been given to it. Those duties were
few, those powers were ample, but
they were limited. The Constitution
and the laws made in pursuance there
of were the supreme law. All power
not delegated to Congress nor prohib-
tied to States was reserved. The sys-
tenn was so simple hat a wayfaring
man, though a fool, need not err there
in; SO apt fitting that it rcconciled
liberty and law and permitted an in
definite expansion without anarchy on
the other, the maintenance of the
rights of the States and the doctrine
of a strict construction of the Ccnsti-
tution-these are the essential ele-
ments of the system. The rights OF
the States as they are defined in the
Constitution, and no where else /; and
not otherwise; the Constitution as it
Is, fairly read, according to the open
and common meaning of its terms
not contracted by ingenuity on the one
hand nor enlarged by grasping ava
rice of power on the other. This is
the means of our safety, as it is the
shibholeth of our faith ! The Con-
stitution has become in the mouths of
Republicans a byword and reproach.
Since Senator Wade announced that
anybody who. prated about the Con.

PRUSSIA AND AUSTRIA AGREE.

PRUSSIA AND AUSTRIA IRE
LONDON, August 80.
The reports of the conferences at
Gastien are confirmed, aud IN agree
ment has been come to between Aus
tria and Prussia on some important
points of policy. The details of this
agreement were arranged III the nature
Of a treaty, but not 4 formal treaty,
as some functionaries whose services
would have been necessary IN drawing
a formal treaty were not present.
Thus far the secret of the exact terms
of the agreement is better kept. The
statement Of policy made by the Wen
ma Cabinet in December last created
STA which called for a more accurate
definition of their relations than
could be secured by an exchange Of
diplomatic notes. The Gastein con-
ference Just in session enabled the two
chancellors. oy confidential onversa
ton, to reach an understanding as to
exactly how the interests of the two
powers could be realized to their mu
tual advantage, and how their good
understanding might be utilized in
dealing together against other pow
ers, The Roumanian railway difficult
ty has thus received a satisfactory so =
luton in the interest of general peace.
This is regarded as a happy augury
for the application of similar joint ac-
ton in future difficulties. Russia,
knowing of the understanding, makes
vast preparations for war.
BERLIN, August S.-A dispatch
from G~umbinnaus, a town of East
Prussia, says that in the small village
of Chiniochow, with a total popula-
ton of 40, there have already been
70 cases of cholera, 46 of which ter
minated fatally.

The attempts to organize Protestant
American parties are wrong, impoli.ic
and mischievous. If religion is ever
made an issue in this country, that's
the end of the country-unless it gets
more religion.
Some Democrats in Indiana, in con
vention, have ''resolved that when we
descend so low as to barter our prin-
ciples to partake of the loaves and
fishes, w will be, and ought to be
dalaned."
Honorable Lewis D. Campbell, the
"Butler Pony" challenged Senator
Sherman TO meet him in joint debate
al any time during the campaign, but
Sherman, not DESTROYS of being skin
ned alive, declines to come in contact
with Campbell.
The Democracy of Warren and of
Butler counties met in convention on
Saturday at Monroe for the purpose
of nominating a candidate for State
Senator. Peter Murphy, of Butler
county was nominated on the first
ballot. A resolution endorsing the
State platform was adopted.
John Sherman grew rich while his
country was in the throes and agony
of civil war; while hundreds of thou
sands were dying in field and hospital;
while the public debt was increasing
to the enormous aggregate of thou
sands of millions All this time
growing rich-waxing fat!
Grant is building a stable for his
sore-tailed horses, costing five or ten
times as much as the finest dwelling.
house in Ashland, and charging it to
the public treasury. Why don't mon
ey-shaver Delano tell us of this when
speaking of "Grants economy"
At the Senatorial Convention at Chill.
Iicothe, John H. Putnam, editor OF
the ChiIlieothe Advertiser, was nonl-
mated for Senator for the Senatorial
district composed of the counties OF
Ross and Highland, making both the
Republican and. Democratic nominees
from ChilIicothe. Mr.. Putnam is q
gentleman of fine abilities, a thorough
Democrat, good speaker, and has
had legislative experience.
The Cincinnati Enquirer charges
that Senator Sherman, during his re-
cent visit to Cincinnati, lad an inter
view with Mayor Davis, and secured
a pledge from him not to enforce the
Sunday laws until after the election.
"Come in off the road John, and play
your marbles in the back yard, tits

The fact has already been mention
ell that the Pope had writt'n a letter
declining the golden throne, and title
OF "thc Great" offered him by y com
miltce of iervcnt Catholics, headed
by the Marquis Gavaletti. In the
course Of il his Holiness says:
"In regard to the precious gift of a
golden throne, it has all Mt once oc-
cured to my mind that | should en-
ploy the sum which may be collected
in releasing young ecclesiastics whom
q sinister law compels to military ser =
vice. The clergy is the golden seat
that s~ustairs the Church. So it is
against the clergy that the efforts of
the present rulers are directed. They
employ spoliation and persecution F.;
they study everywhere how to render
ecclesiastical v%ocations very difficult.
in order thus to reduce more and more
the succession in the ecclesiastical
hierarchy, which, decimated daily by
deaths and t~ribulations, leaves contin-
ual voids which cannot be filled. to
the great detriment of the Church of
Jesus Christ"
In declining the title of "the Great"
Pho Mono says simply:
"My name shall continue to be as
it has always been. I desire that all
repeat, for the glory of God, Magnms
Dominus ct audabi7ie nimis-the Lord
is great and beyond all praise. 1t is
true that the title in question-great
has been given to two truly great
pontiffs, but that took place only after
their death, because then the judg-
ment OF men is clearer and cafmer."

DIR. PURDY WILL GIVE ONE OF
THE MANY LETTERS.


February e, 1870.
DIR. 7. PURDY-Dear Sir: In your last
letter to me you wished me to give you q
81 statement of my case, which l will endeay-
or to do ~truthfully. I entered the United
States army on the 18th of April, 1861, and
served in various departments until the 9Th
of September, 1861. 1 was wounded and
taken prisoner at the battle of Chickamauga.
1 then weighed 1876 pounds. 1 was sent to-
Cahawba prison, and remained there until
the Sth of April, 1866, exposed to every pri-
walton that it was possible to expose men to.
In the fall of '64 I caught a violent cold
which settled on my lungs, and terminated
in tubGrculous consumption. Five days af-
ter / was released l was weighed by the hos
pital stewart of Elm street hospital, at Me-
ridian, Miss, and 1 weighed but % pounds.
1 lay in this helpless condition SO days, not
able to articuiate a sentence, even in a whiF-
per, as the vocal organs were completely
pafalyzed. More than twenty different phys
icians paid me a visit, as I was q medical
man they did everything in their power for
me, but all agreed that / must die. At this
time they watched me constantly to see the
last spark of life die out; but thanks to God
Purdy, a classmate of mine, who
heard ofmy condition. came to see me. de
begged of DR.. Martin, the Surgeon in charge,
for the privilege of putting me under a
course of Physio-medical treatment. At
last the surgeon said, "you can rob him OF
but a few hours. anyhow, as he cannot live
but "a hours longer" In less than one
hour after I took the first dose of medicine,
I eliminated, or threw from my lungs more
than a pint of yellow, effervescive corrup-
ton, and in less than two hours could talk
as we'll as ever, and now my weight is 146
pounds, and I enjoy all the blessings of per-
feet health. CIR. HOPEWELL, NJ. D. .
