to him onr earnest support in the coming
CONGRESSIONAL contest
III Congress ON the 18th of March,
1871, Mr.. HALE. of Maine, Republican,
presented resolution to repeal the duties
on salt. As ali srtitlc in perhaps as UNI
versal use as any which could have been
selected, the tariff on saltpresented fair
test AS an article, moreover, on which
enormous duties had been imposed by
former Congresses, for the avowed beue-
fit and "protection" of American salt
manufacturers, it was h9aih fair test
The repeal Of The salt dCty was meas
ure in the direct interest Of the masses
who had been paying, by official Treasu-
ry figures, duty amounting to one hun
dred and thirty nine per cent. on that ne
cessary of life This reform measure was
carried Through the present House OF
REPRESENTATIVES be it remem bered, J by q
yea and nay vote Of l47 against II, and
there we're 80 members absent or not
voting.
Mr.. SrRAeur voted "So,'' and by SO
doing voted against the interests OF his
constituents.
On the same day, upon motion of Mr.
FARNswoRTH. of Illinois, now Liberal
Republican, the House voted to repeal
The entire duty on coal, by vote Of l3C
yeas to 81 nays
Again, Mr. SPRAGuE voted "No,
which vote was against the interests o.
the people of this Congressional District
and of the country.
The above tariff record Of their can
didate for Congress is one in direct oppo
sition to the interests of every family in
this District. The Convention that re
nominated Mr.. SPRAGJTE. and indorseC
his coursein Congress, certainly had not
the most remote idea Of his reelection,

PUBLIC LANDS.
Hon. VIM. II. Sprague Votes on tn e
Side Of the Eand- -Grabbers.

Mr.. HAwLEY, of Illinois, on April 10,
1871, in Congress had the Clerk read the
following;
"Be it reSolred, dec That from and af-
ter the passage of this act all the public
lands of the United States shall be with
drawn from the market, and thereafter
they shall be disposed of only under and
by virtue of the homestead AID pre- emp.
ton laws. except so far as they may be
from time to time granted by Congress
for the purposes of education; Prorided,
That nothing herein contained shall pre-
vent the location Of college scrip and
land warrants, nor the fulfilling upon the
part of the United States of any existing
contract or agreement"
The question was upon susrending the
rules and passing the bill.
Mr.. SPRAGUE, the Radical candidate for
Congress in this District voted "No,' p
and by his opposition aided in prevent
| ing suspensioE ef the rules and the pas.
sage of the bill.
The passage of the bill would have re-
suited in saving the public lands to the
people to settle upon.
The defeat Of the measure was favora.

Proof that Henry Wilson was d

But was Henry Wilson Know-Noth.
ing in 1854? We have asked this ques-
ton of every number of the Pilot for
that year. We found that the Know
Nothinss of Massachusetts held their
State Convention in fremont Temple,
Boston, in October. 1854; that there
were 1900 delegates present, and that
on the first ballot for Governor, the
name of Henry Wilson appears, and
that he received &C votes out of total
of 9SS. The following are the names
balloted for and the number of votes
cast on the first ballot:
Marshall P. Wider 343
E. nj. Wright; l80
N. F. Bryant, 80
Henry Wilson, 66
Simon Brown, of Concord, 68
The Pilots report of the Convention
says: "There was then great tumult in
the Convention, and examinations and
denominations were freely INDUCED in.
Mr.. Wilson made manly speech, in
which he declined receiving the nomin.
ation," and accordingly his name does
not appear in the succeeding ballots
There is something in the fact that the
nomination was given, and that Henry
Wilson was present at the Convention,
to prove that he belonged to the Order,
although the vote shows he could not
have been a very popular member.

In Congress on the 10th day of April,
1871, Mr.. HALE moved suspension of
the rules to pass bill for the removal of
legal and political disabilities imposed
under the third section of the fourteenth
article of amendments to the Constitution
of the United States. The exceptions
were: Members of Congress, officers OF
the army and navy, and members of State
Conventions which adopted ordinances
of secession.
Mr.. SPRAGUE, the Radical candidate fol
Congress in this District, voted against
suspending the rules, but they were sns
pended and the bill passed by l34 yeas to
Dc nays, Notwithstanding Mr.. SPRAGuE's
opposition. Let our readers remember
that Mr.. SPRAGuE opposed Amnesty, by
his vote, after the war had been over six
years.
That's part Of Mr.. SPRAeUEs record
indorsed by the Radical Congressional
Convention that assembled at Marietta

North Carolina.

Probably no candid person who has
studied the returns of the North Caro-
lima election and intelligently compared
them with the percentages of previous
elections, has doubted that Mr.. Merri.
man is chosen Governor of the State
But since the fourth day after the result
was first announced, it has been clear
that desperate attempt was making by
the Administration party fraudulently
to give Caldwell semblance of victory.
All the facts point to the existence OF
such a scheme, and the latest reports
from the State show that it will be abor.
tive. BY the time the Legislature meets,
sufficient fraud will have been proved
to overcome the slight majority which
the friends of Caldwell now claim for
him, and the temporary advantage of
the Administrationists must fade
Nothing could more forcibly illustrate
the desperation of the Office Holders
party than its extraordinary efforts to
gain in North Carolina even this fleeting
shadow of victory-N. Y. Tribune.

Grant and Brice's Forged Bounty
Claims
From the Albany Evening Times

From the Albany Evening Times.
President johnson, when the facts
we're laid before him, retired this man
Brice from active. service, and Grant
first act, as President, was to restore
him. He openly opposed all investiga-
ton into the matter while he was in the
War Office, and made every effort to
sustain Brice in the payment of these
claims, which he could hardly have fail
ed TO know were for9eries. Mr.. Bundy
says that he presented Gen. Brice with
undoubted evidence that the claims were
forged, and yet he persisted in paying
them, and Grant insisted in protecting
him in that work An attempt was
made to investigate these facts by a
committee of Congress, but even that
was smothered by the action OF Grants
friends in the House. The report pre-
pared. but never submitted, shows the
whole of the Lowenthal claims to be
diSreputable and dishonest, and yet
Brice was sustained in paying them by
Grant, both as Secretary of War and as
President Whether Grant was in the
Ring and shared the fruits of these
crimes, we have no means of knowing.
1t is hardly probable that he would have
sustained such rascality unless it was to
rebound TO his own pecuniary benefit.
| He was on the most intimate terms with
the whole Ring engaged in the robbery,
and evidently knew Of their doings, if
he was not partner in their crimes.

Five of the eight Congressmen are

And when the Legislature convenes
