Is THERE DANGER

The hue and cry is raised that the COM
mon school system is in danger? Does
any one believe it Has such fear any
foundation in fact? For our part we can
see no danger, or, even, any threatened
danger, save from one cause to which we
shall presently refer Whence this fear or
pretended fear' 1t rests solely upon the
fact that in two or three of the western
states, the legislature, the democrats being
IN the majority, have proposed amendments
of those clauses which prohibit the parti-
ton of the school fund for sectarian pur-
poses. The proposition does not seek,
mind you, to abrogate free public schools,
but allows of pubic support of sectarian
schools. This is bad enough in all con-
science, but we have no fears of the result.
II the democrats, or any one. else, desire to
make Il fair aud square issue, for and
against free common schools, we have not
the slightest objection thereto. We care
not whether they array themselves against
the education of all children at the ex pense
of the taxpayer, or whether the amend
mcnt is simply proposed in order to allow
the people to record their will in the mat
Ter. In either event, the result would be
the same, save that in the former case,
the democracy, not the free school, would
go down. We believe that the people are
prepared to meet and decide this issue at
any time, now or hereafter. The belief in
free schools is too well grounded to be
shaken by any party or other action. All
persons looking upon ignorance as the real
source OF vice, immortality and crime. They
feel and know that the education of the
people Is the bulwark of free institutions
They know that free schools arc the main
sources of education. Even the ignorant
and vicious freely admit this. With here
and there exceptions, the clamor is not fol
the abrogation Of free schools but TOR O
higher education. The fault found with
common schools is that they arc too ex
pensive, but that they do not 60 deer
enough, except in the larger towns, theil
facilities end too soon. But all, at the
same time, admit that he who wills can lay
deep and broad the foundations of a higher
education IN the most common of our com

The NextPoIItIcaI Canvass.

The issues of the next political canvass
begin to appear already. Ex-senator Car
penter addressed his friends at Madison,
Wis, Saturday night, apropos of his de-
feat for the United States senatorship. He
treated his own i'll luck with great good ma
ture, and gave his successful rival the ben
eft of an endorsement as true and tried
republican, who stood upon platform in
which there was not word that would not
be Endorsed by every republican senator Of
the United States. lie twitted the demo-
Gratis with having been sold out by the
greatest political merchant of modern
times-James II. Doolitile- and warned
the republicans who had supported his OPP
ponent that the democrats expected as a
result of their investment to carry Wiscon-
sin next fall.
We have, he added, but one thing to see
to, and that is, considering the immoral
contract, that they be not permitted to get

DR.. Cutting, the state geologist, has Wis
tied the much talkcd-of volcano of North
Fayston The Freeman says:
The conical hill is on the north side of
Bald Mountain, its north slope being per-
haps 800 feet, and its south slope half that
distance This hill is a mass of detached
rocS, with crevices, and overgrown with
trees. These crevices are very deep. One
of them, some six inches wide, is mostly
covered by soil, and growth of trees,
bushes and the like. Some places are not
so covered, and there are the volcanic holes
simply BITS ofthe crevice not covered d.
The air in the crevices or caves is of course
moist, and is cold in summer and warm in
winter when considered in relation to the
outside atmosphere. When this damp air
comes out of the crevice or cave in winter,
the moisture with which il is charged is con-
densed in vapor, and that is all there is to
thd ''volcano." The temperature within
the cave or creyice is 40 degrees above
zero.

1t is said that Titon's counsel are ''puz-
zled to know" why the defense have m
troduced the letters that passed between
Tilton and his wife prior to 1870. We re-
joice and are exceedingly glad that some
thing has, at last, occurred to astonsh
these counsel, and only regret that the as
constituent is not all pervading, and deep
enough to hurry along this tedious tIial to
an carly conclusion. The whole country
has, for weeks been astonished at the
course of the counsel on both sides and
have wondered if there was any need of so
much prolixity or if the parties or counsel
desire the trial to ever end. Lawyers have
scratched their heads in simple amazement,
and vainly endeavored to find the rules of
evidence which govern the court and coun-
sci in conducting the trial. We expect,
every day, to hear of the rafting of the
dry bones of good old Professor Gre, nleat,
when the intelligence is conveyed 10 his
sphere that his text book isn't of much ac-
count or authority in the trial of scandal
suits. Even "Phllips on Evidence" hoary
with age and authority as it is. is held in
about as much reverence in this Brooklyn
court, SO far as lts law is concerned, as
Palne's cage of Reason" would be. But
the height of absurdity Is reached when it
is further stated that the reading of these
letters has given rise to some speculalions
regarding the "religious views of the jury
If the jury are possessed of the same kind
of "religous views that Tilton processes
and that he endeavors to show that Beecher
practices, it must afford vast field for
speculation, and be matter of vast conse-
qnence not only to the parties concerned
but to the world at large If such be their
religious" views" we apprehend it nigh,
help Beechers case if he was not ready tc
swear, when his turn comes, that he ''isn'
that kind of man." AS it is, and with
the cause of the controversy as it is, it does
look rather absurd to speculate about Tho
religious views" of anyone connected will

all, they might as well speculate on this
topic as upon anything else, as we greatly
fear that they will never make nearer ap
proach to the consideration of anything
connected with n real or pretended religion

1t has become necessary to inform the
public, without further delay of the fraud
attempted TO be committed by Orrin Ship
man upon the reformers and progressive
men and women of this country. By vari-
Gus receptions Mr.. Shipman las been en-
abed to keep the present members Of Dawn
Nalcour community, and the pubic IN gen
eral, in blindness III regard to the real value
of the property offered to the community
as basis for this organization. But now
that the true state of affairs is known, 1t
would be unjust or cruel not to publish il
to the world, that none may be betrayed
into loss of their homes, and their property
sunk beyond recovery.
1t will be necessary to detail but few of
the facts of this affair. Mr.. Shipman
represented to the members, and to the
world, that he was the owner of property
worth fabulous prices that he would give
to a community providing the community
would pay him S31 900; his debts were to
be paid aud TO be deducted from this
amount, and the balance paid him in an
nual installments. Mr.. Shipman usually
called his property worth SEA, 200, but
sanctioned the use of his name to acircu-
lar that lis value to a community was
800, 900, and therefore gave what is called
a gratuity to the community of $4,000
On a full investigation of the property, by
information from the former owners and
neighbors Immediately adjoining it, the
home farm which he calls "Champlain
Valley nurseries, is estimated as worth
not over $1,000. For the Valcour Island
property Shipman paid $1,000 (paying a
profit to the former owner Of 81 ZOO. The
whole property has decreased in value to a
considerable amount, and Mr.. Shlpman has
already offered to give up the property TO
the mortgages with what little he has paid
upon it, if this spring does not find him
flush with community money This shows
that Mr.. Shipman knows the real value of
his property and that the fraudulent rep
reservations will fall.
1t is not necessary to go into the details
of this affair, but the suffering endured by
the members, by the breaking up of their
homes and the expense of Transporting
themselves and their furniture long distan-
ces from various states of this Union,
should, after this expose, be warning to
reformers Of all classes to look well to the
character of those who start projects with
the ostcnsiblc purpose of recupcrating fail
ing fortunes.
At meeting Of the community the fol-
lowing resolution was passed, receiving the
signature of the president and secretary
and all of the members of the Dawn Val
cour community, excepting John Wilcox
and five other members, some of the five
believing in the fraud, but not voting for
other reasons
"Resolred, That the members of Dawn
Valcour Community regard the past repre-.
sensations in regard to Orrin Shipman's
property as IA stupendous Jrdud."

The following resolution was pass
ed by the National Grange P. of H.
at its recent session:
Res0lved, That in the sense of the
National Grange the following SUCCESS
lions are applicable to the present
wants of our order: As the closing
scenes of this long and laborious ses-
sion approach; as the memories of pre-
vious sessions and the many glorious
achievements Of our order return to US:
as we work forward to the future wants
and prosperity Of this great brother
hood, we are deeply impressed with the
truth that we must at all times preserve
a vital spirit of fraternity between
oranges and individual members of this
order to best maintain its vigor, success
and perpetuity. This and the nature
OF our solemn obligation should ever be
borne in mind. We have promised to
aid and not to injure our fellow-patrons.
Therefore, the good name Of brother
or a sister should be as precious to each
one Of US as is our own. Harshness
has nc place in the principles of our Or
der. Its mission is one Of peace, gen.
tleness and goodwill Therefore, in the
discussion or application of our princi-
pies we hold that all asperity and vio-
ience are out Of place and should ever
be avoided by our members. We also
hold that the Interpretation of any law
OF our order which works a manifest
injustice to any member is at fault, and
in all applications of our laws and reg
ulations we should remember that the
grange Is organized for the comfort,
convenience and welfare of every wor.
thy member. We trust that our men,
bers everywhere will renew their pledg-
es OF fealty to this noble brotherhood,
endeavoring especially to live up to the
following principles Of our declaration
OF our purposes, viz, owe shall con-
stantly strive to secure entire harmony,
good will and vital brotherhood, among
ourselves and to make our order per-
petual; we shall earnestly endeavor to
suppress personal, local, sectional and
national prejudices, all unhealthy rival
ry, all selfish ambition. These are not
idle words but vital principles, which
will give life and pernanence to every
grange throughout our land if our men,
bers will but emulate each other to
exemplify them in their words and &C
tions.'

those who have played into the
hands Of the companies, and as we
are guiltless in that respect, it is not
true that we are, in any manner, re-
sponsible "for the oppressive and
ungodly state of things" that exists.
We have one thing more to say
to the editor of the Age and it is
this: He is wrong in his opinion
concerning US, because he gets his
information from those whose own
records have stamped them as un-
principled scoundrels. Hereafter
in abiding to what we may say, if
he confines himself to argument, we
shall be happy to answer him, and
if he points out any error in what
we advance, we will willingly re-
tract. We are anxious to do all
that we can IN freeing the people of
this country from the expressions of
monopolists and usurers, and have
worked sincerely to accomplish that
end for several years. We should
be pleased to have the Age for a
co.laborer, and if we do not always
think alike; we need not doubt each
others integrity, or abuse one. an
other: When the Age again de.
scends to villifying us, however, it
cannot expect reply. We despise
that sort of conduct and will not be
led into it.
