1t is announced that under the
Chicago relief bill, all joiner work
that may be used in building, such
as flooring, sash, doors, blinds, man.
tells, cornices, window and door
frames, and every article of manu-
factured lumber that can be used in
building, are entitled to the draw
back of duties; consequently Chica-
go manufacturers of all these things
are in a panic. Their mission is
ended until Chicago shall be rebuilt.
Meanwhile they can move to Cana
da, where they can get the rough
lumber about a third cheaper, and
can run their factories at as much as
one-third less cost. Thus Chicago
rebuilding sacrifices Chicago indus
tries, and pours stream of money
abroad to invigorate those of Can
ada. And thus Chicago is like the
ill-bred SOW that devoured her own
litter.-Ciacjnndti Gazette, 1871.

The opponents of the Adair Liq-
uor law, having been defeated, now
claim tn have discovered a positive
defect in the enacting clause, which
instead of reading. "Be it enacted
by the General Assembly of the
State of Ohio" simply reads (by an
error of the enrolling clerk, "Be it
enacted by the State of Ohio" +"
They claim that the omission makes
the law unconstitutional, but as the
spirit and intent, as well as the mere
verbslity ofthe law is taken into ac-
count by the courts, no one need be
alarmed as to the position judges
will take when the question is sub
mitted to them.

The CINCINNATI CONVENTION met
on Wednesday and organized tenn
porarily by calling Stanley Mathews
to the chair. He made a speech
which was of course loudly applau-
ded, by the delegates, not over four
hundred spectators being in attend
ance. No business was done except
to pass a resolution to adjourn till
10 o'clock Thursday, and to author
ize those in attendance to choose
double the number Of delegates that
each State would be entitled to and
those delegates report themselves at
one o'clock, Thursday, to proceed
to business. Greely and Adams, it
appears, have distanced all other
candidates and one, or the other will
most likely head the ticket. Gratz
Brown will probably be second on
the ticket.

TEMPERANcE.-There will be no
modification of the Adair Liquor
Law, the present year. Modifca-
ton has been voted down, in the
House, while in the Senate the vote
was a tie, thus disposing of the sub
ject for this year. When it is con-
sidered that the temperance men
had to fight the strongest lobby in
fuence that has ever been brought
to bear against a measure, in Colum-
bus, during the past winter, this may
be regarded as a decided triumph,
The law, however, as it stands does
not suit the ultra prohibitionists, but
it suits the great mass of the people
and if fairly administered will be
found the best measure of the k ind
ever devised.

If YOU would like to know what
sort of a platform the liberal will
produce, Just think of the conglom-
crate mass assembled at Cincinnati.
The free-trader is there and the pro
hibitary tariff man is there. The
Southern fre-eater and the Northern
doughface is there. The Ku Klux
Of the South and the ultra radical of
the North meet there on an equality,
while the Copperhead and the former
Republican join hands there; and all
for what? To beat Grant. No 9th.

The correspondence below is con-
elusive evidence that the sorehead
movement is resorting to desperate
chances for success, for nothing but
utter desperation would ever inspire
an appeal to the soldiers of this
country, to unite their efforts. for the
defeat of the man whose glorious
history is forever blended with their

no sympathy for the Ku- Klux efforts

Near the village of San Sebastino,
the lava is said to be sixteen feet
deep, and thousands of acres Of

so reported very great. On tue

said to have slackened very much,

been the grandest ever witnessed

Carl sohurz and his Account.

Mr.. Schurz came to the front TO-
day, and in response to the sugges-
ton Of the Tribune few days since,
visited the Treasury Department for
the purpose of adjusting his ac-
counts as former Minister to Spain
which for ten years past has posted
him in the light of defaulter. He
will, it is understood, endeavor to
stretch leave Of absence over the
time for which he drew pay after he
returned, which involves some $3,-
000' But there comes up an en-
barrassing question of law, for one
of the reforms of the present admin
istration is law preventing pay
ments of leave of absence after sixty
days. Schurz will probably claim
that his accounts must be settled
by the old law. But it is
significant fact that what he did then
is'now declared illegal by statute.
But whether he escapes or not, it
seems established beyond a doubt
that he received a years pay for five
months services, and at least $4,000
for which he rendered no service
whatever. The fact that he is com
PEELED to confess judgment as to his
delinquency in the matter of his &C
counts, creates great amusement
here.-N. 7. Times.

by aSslduous persuasion arrive final
ly at the conclusion that those who
have been more fortunate in obtain
ing recognition by the party, or in
gaining popular favor, must neces-
ssrily be bad or unworthy men.
Our watchful opponents are apt to
take advantage of this sort Of men-
tai disposition, and to bend all their
energies upon fostering the elements
of discord. In this way men who
originally mean to do right, are led
to cooperate with them in damag-
ing the cause which is entitled to
their support Every man who has
the least regard for the greet objects
which the Republican party is to
achieve, ought to be well on his
guard in this respect. To become
tool in the hands of the common
enemy is about the lowest point of
political respectability a member of
the Republican party can reach in
this crisis, whatever his personal
| grievances may be.
Speaking of this truthful bit of
literature, written by Schurz when
he was deemed sane, the Washing
ton Republican says:
Mr.. Schurz's portrait of himself
has the merit Of rare fidelity and
truth. 1t would be hard to describe
his own course at the present time
in more fitting language than that
which he himself penned four years
ago. His personal grievances and
disappointments have so distorted
his political vision that he can see
no good in the Administration, and
as it cannot be broken down in any
other way than by the overthrow o.
the Republican party, we find him "s
tool in the hands of the common
enemy, the lowest point of political
respectability that a member car
reach in the present crisis"

The Albany Argus and the Cinoin,
matt ConYention.

natl Convention.
ALBANY, April 28.-The Argus OF
tomorrow, will contain an article on
the subject of the Cincinnati Con-
vention, which distinctly repudiates,
in the name of the party, the recent
assumptions of the New York World.
After acknowledging the high per-
sonal and public character of Mr..
Adams, which even his ungracious
letter cannot effect, it goes on to
say;
"We will not initiate the fault we
censure, by assuming to pledge the
Democracy of the State for any can
didate; but for our own part, we feel
and we find, that so many partici-
pate In the sentiment that we regard
it as general, that the true relations
Of the Democracy of New York are
with the great west, for a public
man, to have lived in the great val
ley Of the Mississippi, shared its
growth and development, and antici-
pated its destiny, is almost a Demo
cratic education. If the Democrat
ic party is to take part In political
revolution, it must ally itself with
the growing and generous west;
where lies the future of the republic,
and not with sections that have lost
their energy and enthusiasm, and
dwell only in the dead past"
Which may be interpreted to mean
that the Democracy intend to have
a candidate of their own, and allow
the soreheads to enjoy Adams all
alone, if they nominate him.

Of no soldier who is opposed to the strong, Just,

from this region to attend your bastard con-

around here are anxious to hear the Gassem-
