In conclusion, am proud 10 say that while the Re-
publican party may have erred, 1t has not proved
false to any great principle cowardy In the pres
ence of any great question. Its aims noble and
patriotic, and 1t does not seek continuance in power
by panderng to vice and prejudice but refers TO its
liberty education, equality and the material growth
and Improvement Of the nation earnest OF what
1t seeks to accomplish in the future And there must
be cessation in Its labors II must not presume TO
live upon the gories and memories Of the past Its
first and everpresent duty is introspec,ion selfex-
animation, the correction Of errors the introduction OF
reforms IL must look 10 the execution ana enforce
ment Of the Constitution and laws and while assert
ing the existence Of the nation and the Just powers Of
the National Government 1t should ever be vgilant to
preserve in all their just extent the rights aud powers
Of the States ever carrying before It, lamp guide
its steps, those great fundamental principles which
have given to the party its power and glory-eQua
rights to all-equal and exact justice to all men.

The power is given to Congress by the Constitution
to regulate commerce among the several States" and
whatever is necessary to execute the power must be
included in it. II commerce can not be successfully
regulated without regulating the means of transporta-
ton, the instruments by which 1t is conducted then
the power TO regulate these must be included. OF
course this is to be understood applicable only to
commerce among the several States, aud not to apply
TO that which Is exclusively confined to the interior
Of the State Railroads have now become the instru-
ments by which the greater part Of commerce car
red on among the several States, and have to great
extent superseded not only rivers and canals but also
stages, wagons and horses There are few lines Of
railroads now that in their connections and eonsoida
lions have not become parts OF lines engaged in COM
merce among the several States. Although railroad
companies like steamboat companies, are chartered by
the States yet in most cases. they authori zed
form consultations and running arrangements with
lines OF railroad In other States and to take leases Of
roads in distant States Most OF these corporations
own and control lines Of road running into across
adjoining and several either own or have leased
thousands Of miles Of road stretching far North and
South, and half way across the continent These great
lines Of railway thus ramiyhigthe Union and affecting
the interests and prosperity Of the States under
the control of small Boards Of Directors In Phade-
phia, New York. or Baltimore and chiefly ruled BY
lew leading minds, that really exert more power over
the nation than Governors or Presidents.
REGULATIONS SHOULD BE UNIFORM.
whether we consider the interests Of the railroads
or OF the several States through which they pass, it
seems equally important they should be subject TO
uniform regulations which can only be secured by
national control II the through lines from the Attain
tic to the Mississippi may be regulated in way by
Ohio another by Indiana and still another by ILL
nois they may become the victims Of unfriendly leg
islation and be greatly crippled and hindered in their
operaons and each State, acting for Its own interests
not consider those Of other States and may regu-
late against them II each State may regulate, within
its own territory those roads employed In Interstate
commerce. we may have reproduced Of those dis
orders and conflicts which existed between the States

THIS MRANEsr MAN ALIVE The met nest
man alive is a woman -wbipper He resides in
Bloomfield township and his name is Aaron
Beck. A few days ago this fend found
woman passing his house-a Mrs. Pickle, whom
he ha ed-an finding her alone caught hold of
her by the hair of the aead and cowhlded her
until the blood streamed from every pors. Great
welts were produced oil over her body and face
as thick as the dexter finger Of a mans hand.
As soon as this human fend had performed
this wonderful feat he mounted his horse, rode
to North Bloomfield, got mau to lodge q COM
plant against him. pleaded guilty, and wss
lined ny Just c, Smith $40 for his fendjsh act.
Ga the same day warrant was issued by Jus
tice Ayers. of North Columbia, en- complaint Of
Mrs Pickle which was served on Sunday, the
18th. When the woman-whipper was brought
into Court on Sunday morning he deliberately
pleaded former conviction for the same otfens',
and produced certificate to that effect signed
by Justice Smith. OF course he was discharged
Subsequently he was placed under bonds to keep
the peace towards Mrs. Pickle for the period
of six months. A suit in civil damages has
been commenced against the wretch by Mrs.
Pickle, which is now pending. -NorM Ju1n

A Training School of Cookery.

The New York Sun sugges that our woman
of wealth, fashion, and influence emulate the
example Of English women Of rank and fortune,
and establish here training school Of cookery.
In no civilized country, is says il the average
standard of cookery 30 poor as in America. and
nothing can raise that standard but making It
fashionable to learn how to cook, in school of
cookery for young ladies. It is not proposed
to educate cooks for private families; but there
is a demand for trained mistresses of families,
for no woman can have we-otdered kitchtn
unless she herself understands the art OF cooking.
y Let all our high schools and colleges
for young women establish professorshp OF
cookery, and let no student receive her degre
from the faculty unless she has passed her ex-
animation 10 that branch as creditaby as in the
other. II q Never until We thus popularze
this much-ignored accomplishment can we ex-
pect the editor Gays, to have intelligent direct
ion to cooks. or healthy modes of living in
families.

says "The church Of most interest
to the tourist is the cathedral OF

which, however, has become some
what blackened by the age, having
been erected as far back as l724. The
