But how shall we get it? have a plan
of my OWL. How did we lose it? What
became of it? In the first place it was re-
tired in five-twenty and other bonds. The
principle is easy-redeem or pay off the
~five-twenty bonds in legal-tender notes and
restore the equilibrium which was lost
when these notes were retired. You will
then improve the finances of the country
instead of following the process which has
been so oppressive in its character. Re-
store the lost equilibrium and your vessel
will sail upon the bounding waves of pros

tire the f~ive-twenty bonds and give the
country legal-tenders it will send the blood
from the heart TO the extremities. 1t will
make the first mantling glow of health up
on the check of the nation. The country
will show again signs of vitality and blood.
Instead of the skeleton you will see a body
full of flesh and life and vigor.
These five-twenty bonds are payable in
legal tenders; and the notes issued under
the acts of February %, 1862, and July,
1862, and March, 1868, and the series of
| 1869, all bear upon their face that they are
receivable for all debts, public and private,

later you will find that this country will
drive di;ect,y 10 that point in order to save
itself from enormous evils.
Now, let US look at these bonds. They

MoUNDsvELLE, November 80.
Prof Wcber'a concert was held In the
school hall LAST evening. As the train
that brought tho class from BGllairG was
somewhat behind time, 1t was s o'clock
when the concert commenced. The hrst
performance, In reality, was rot on the
programme, and was very unexpected.
The large hall WAS dpnsely crowded, and
ust as the concert was AbOu! to open
some one imagined that ono oil the iron
posts lately put up to support the roof
above was about 10 fall. The alarm was
given, and such q panic that ensOed Is
beyond description. Some made for the
door and some 10 the windows, and II
seemed for few moments Rs though
many would precipitate themselves TO
the ground below; others screamed, and
one lady tainted. II was q fearful
time Tor a few moments, but by
the earnest efforts OF several In tho
audience order was again restored, and
the concert begun and was listened 10 at.
tentlvely-VGry attGntively, we think, con.
siderlng the circumstances. II was u
very creditsblG performance throughout.
The programme was not followed strictly,
as some OF the performers lett during the
panic. The singing was generally good,
especially was that Of Misses WeAilRke,
Archer and Weber, while tho instru-
mental music was OF high CIDER, ES.
celSEOr was well performed. "What Ia
Homo Wilhouta Mother.in law" brought
down the house. But wO must say the
browning piece was "Mr. and Mrs.
Brown" by Miss Criswell and Mr.
Gilmer. We think tho audience
went away well satisfied that "Music
has charms," &C. We said that the panic
occurred by some one imagining that tho
column spoken Of moved. Several are
confident that It did move. This may be
60, but 1t did not fall and /! IL now stand.
Ing just as firmly as 1t was before. 1t Is
tho impression In the community that the
hall is not safe, and it took but o word to
cause the most intense excitement. Il ia
our private opinion publicly expressed
that 1t will bear oil the people that can
be packed In it, and that It will be stand.

that people will not learn to be cool on
such occasions, knowing as they certain
ly must, that the greatest danger Is In the
rush that attends such rights. We sup
pose that We will not again soon SEQ such
a crowd in our hall. Notat least until 1t
is made so secure that danger cannot

.AN ADEENrrRE MITH rRlMpS

One EVENING" last week two tramps went
to the house of Mr.. Wesley Richards, in
Troy township, and finding Mr.. Richards
absent, commanded Mrs r. to get them
some supper which she prOceededto do.
After they had partaken Of hearty meal
and were ready to take their leave, they
demanded of her what money might be
aboutthe house. Mrs. r. told them there.
was no money in the house, and she
could therefore give them none; this did
not suit the tramps, and they made some
terrible threats if the money was not
forthcoming Immediately. Mrs. K. told
them she would 90 into the next room
and see,if she could any, and proceeded
at'once to the above stated place, where
she knew there was a shot gun standing.
Having secured the gun she returned to
the room and turned the tables upon the
would-be robbers, and told them if they
did not Immediately take their leave of
the premises She would shoot them.-
Not admitingthe look of the open muz-
zle Of the gun they took aihasty depart
ure The brave woman didinOt faint
when the danger had passed, but quietly
waited for the return Of her husband who
came a short time aftef, and to whom she
related her adventure But the tramps
had made good their escape, and being
dark il was deemed useless to attempt'tO
catch them and bring them to Justice. d;

eommendable, and worthy Of example to
the rest Of heI sex.-Ashland Pre~

the motives of Mr.. Bromberg for raising
the inquiry.
The report of Examiner Meigs was
made in the interest of the Ring, and
falsified the condition 80 bareiacedly as
TO astound even the paid advocates pfthe
bank. He boldly stated the "b9d and
doubtful debts" at Sl06,5O0, and ascribed
the darng frauds to errors of manage
ment and bad bookkeeping, when he
must have known, as everybody else
knew, after seeing the records, thap the
money was as much stolen as if burglars
had forced the safe and carried of the
greenbacks.
A bill was patched up and passed un-
der the drill Of the subcommittee, in
tended to ride over the difficulty, and
withhold publicity of the corruption and
plunder until after the election. They
succeeded temporarily and now the utter
insolvency is visible to every eye. THe
bank is in the hands Of three trustees,
who have also deceived the depositors
with false promises, and who are eating
up what little substance is left by pro-
longing their employment at very large
pay.
The Republican party processes great
devotion to the rights, elevation, and in
terests OF the colored race. They char
tered this bank, then destroyed its secur-
ity, aud finally turned it over to the ten
der mercies of the Presidents friends,
who have appropriated the savings of
these poor negrues. The same Ring that
spoliated the whites, robbed the blacks
who had fooishly voted to keep them
in power. And now, with winter at the
door and no work, they see Shepherd,
KilbOurn, Latta, Evans, and that gang
living in palaces giving grand entertain
ments, driving fast horses, and enjoying
every luxury with their money taken
from this bank .......
Credit Moblier and all the other in
iquities which have justly excited the
public indignation, sink into insignifi-
canoe compared with this robbery of
needy, ignorant and helpless creatures
who trusted their little earnings to an
organized band Of thieves recommended
by Congress and the President to them
as Republicans worthy of every conf
denCe. ......
Humility and justice demand that this
matter shall be turned inside out, and
that the scoundrels who have made away
with these deposits shall not only be
scourged with whips of scorpions, but
that they shall be gibbeted before the
world and made to disgorge their ill-got-
ten gains.
Investigation must be had, and with
an honest and resolute committee, too.
No whitewashing will be tolerated in the
present temper ofthe country even ifthe
Speaker be disposed to neglect the recent
instruction. Now, let us see whether the
professed friends of the colored people
will insist upon this inquiry, or whether
they will shrink from itin order to screen
the Ring. l.. ~

IT is no eXaggeratiOn to say that health
is a large ingredient in what the world
calls talent. A man without it may have
a giant intellect but his deeds will be
the deeds of dwarf On the contrary,
let him have a quick circulation, a good
digestion, the bulk, thews, and sinews of
a man, and the alacrity, the unthinking
confidence inspired by these, and though
having but thimbleful of brains, he will
either blunder upon success or set failure
at defiance, 1t is true, especially in this
country, that the number of contours in
every cOmmunity-Of men in whom he
roic intellects are allied with bodily con-
stitutiOn as tough as hofses-is small /;
that in general, man has reason TO think
himself well off in the lottery Of life if
he draws the prize of a healthy stomach
with mind, or prize of healthy stom-
aeh without n mind, or prize Of fine in
tellect with a crazy stomach -''. '"
But Of the two, weak mind in her
culean frame is better than a giant mind
in a crazy constitution, A pound
Of ENERGY, with an ounce Of talent,
wiz achieve greater results than
pound of talent, with an ounce of
energy The first requisite to sue
cess in life is to be good animal. In
any of the learned professions, vigorous
constitution is equal to at least fifty per
cent more brains. Wit, judgement, i'm
aginatiOn, eloquence, and all the qualities
of the mind, attain thereby force and
splendor to which they could never at
tain without it. But intellect in weak
ly body is "like gold in a spent swim
mer's pocket" A mechanic may have
tools of the sharpest edge and highest
polish; but what are these without
vigorous arm and hand? OF what use is
it that your mind has become vast
granary of knowledge, if you have no
strength to turn the key? fr..if
