WEDNESDAY. JAN. ~. 1875.


Garrit Smiths last writing was
q contribution to the Advance of
Chicago. on the question of liquor
prohibition. In it he took the
strict ground-and he reminds us
that he did the same thing In the
National Temperance Convention
ut Chicago in 1869Lthat Govern
ment can have no concern with the
question of temperance or intern
perance, as such; and that prohib-
tive legislation can only be requir
ed in virtue of its obligation to
protect person and property. He
would have had, if he could, every
place closed absolutely where iq-
nor was sold to be drank on the
premises; hnt he excerpts the
German beer gardens. He once
entered one at st. Louis, and he
says, although it was nearly
twenty years ago, I have not yet
lost the very pleasant impression it
made upon me. Families seated
quietly around small tables with
nothing upon them but pitcher of
lager beer, goblets, and plate of
plain cake, contrasted SO widely
with the noisy and mad whisky
drinkings of the Yankees and Irish,
that my rigid total abstinence
relaxed, if not into an approval, at
least into q federation of the scene
before me. This usage of father
land, SO dear to every German, has
strong claims to forgiveness and
favor, if over against its many
pleasant features there be one that
is to be regretted" And he con-
tinues, the friends of temperance
fail because they grasp at too
much, and exacted more from Gov
ernment than it has a right to
reach. -WOman's Journal.

The Chicago Alliance sums up
the real difficulties now existing in
the Southern States briefly, thus
"The real difficulty is all express
ed in the words negro bondage.
That thing always was and hence
must remain. Negro vote, negro
power, negro citizen contradicts all
the past.
We're the carpet baggers all away
there would be peace only until
some black face appeared at the
polls. or as road supervisor or
dered out some white man to work
on the roads. Then African blood
would flow. The war set the ne
groes free, Southern custom de-
clares him slave, hence the
conflict. The government was
founded in order to protect its
citizens, and if it fails to do this it
is perfectly worthless
We see no solution for the
trouble south of us except that
found in the power of the nation.
It must defend the African from
enemies just as though his face
were white.
Our country was once based on
color Of skin. It is now based
upon e justice that is blindfolded,
that it may not see the skin, nor the
clothing, nor the brides in the
hands of the parties standing at
her bar. IF it shall demand thirty
years for the power of the negro to
become confessed, then for thirty
years should the military hold
possession of the revolving States.
The object of the General Govern
ment is to defend where States do
not. IF a few martyred Cubans
made the Southern blood boil for
and redress, the blood of
1900 negro men killed in the past
year in the South should make
blood boil for justice nearer home"

A temperance meeting at Fond
du Lac, Wis, has issued an address
in which it is said: Our observa
ton and experience has taught us
that the temperance army can do
more good by pursuing the policy
that has been adopted in this part
of the State than in any other
manner, namely: By bringing to
bear all the moral influences at our
command; by unceasing personal
effort; by constantly laboring to get
men to reform and to return to the
path of reason, right and duty; by
earnest endeavors to get the young
and non drinking classes impressed
with the dangers that follow habits
of intoxication; in short, by work
ing where, when, and how we know
will bring good results.

A Pest Once Romance

Mr. John I'll. .Hallett, one of the
oldest public servants in the New
York Post Office, remembers that
in 1875, young woman used to
call every week, for a letter ad-
dressed ssMiss Mary II. Russell.

visits, and her apparent unwilling
ness to give any account of herself,
elected much curiosity among the
clerks, but their inqmsitiveness
was never gratifed. Years passed
away, and gray hairs appeared on
the woman's head, but sho made
her calls as regularly as ever, and
the expected letter was always
waiting for her. Nearly ten years
have elapsed since her last visit, but
the letters still come addressed to
her name, although the intervals.
between them are longer than in
the old time. These letters have,

TO THE PUBLIC.
Certificate from the Hon. Edwar tl
Bates, Attorney. General of the Unit.
ed States.

WASHINGTON, April 8, 1863.
DIR. FoRsHA-Slr: Before you start West
! can do no less than thank you again for
your excellent and successful treatment of
my son. He had been sick for many wee KS
under the care of medical gentleman OF
whom have high opinion, for his learn
ing, skill and experience, and yet he was
rot cured. His disease, 1 suppose (without
certainly knowing, was brought on by
overstraining, in artillery exercise, in very
hot weather, at West Point. When he
came into your hands, his breast bone (orae
side at least was protuded some two inches
beyond its proper position, attended with
difficulty of breathing and frequent pains.
By the application OF your medicines, and
your personal practice, in less than a week
the bones were reduced to their proper po-
sition, the pains ceased, the breathing be-
came easy and regular, and, as far as can
judge, he is restored to his accustomed ro-
bust health and activity.
Besides this within my own KNOWLEDGE
have heard of many instances of extraor-
binary cures effected by you, in cases of
very dangerous wounds.
Very respectfully,
Your obedient servant,
EDWARD BATES,
Attorney General u. s.

Compare these extracts from
Bishop Winners sworn testimony
before the Congressional commit
tee, with his contradiction of
Sheridan, only four days later:
With reference to the Govern
ment, I think what We want is some
means of bringing those who VIC
late the law 10 punishment.
The guilty are never punished for
their crimes.
Mr.. Foster-You have confined
yourself to minor crimes. Let me
ask you concerning higher ones
Does a white man suffer disgrace
for killing negro!
The Bishop.I take it for grant
ed that he does, without any qnai
fcation. I cannot imagine any
greater crime than when man
commits such an act for political
reasons, whether he is white or
black.
Mr.. Foster-We are of opinion
that it would not injure a man to
kill negro.
The Bishop-I think our people
are more prone than others to
sudden acts of violence.
Mr.. Potter-Can you say wheth
er there is feeling of insecurity
among white people as to persons
and property
The Bishop-Very great /
think there is more security in the
northern part of the State.
In this connection the following
report of Bishop Winners test
mony is interesting:
Bishop Wilmer said the cause of
all the trouble was fundamental,
and arose from negro suffrage, to
which he was unequivocally OPP
posed. His churches were being
broken up because the people could
not support them. He believed if
justice were better administered
the difficulties would stop.
It seems that the Bishop wants
ssiustice administered, but by the
White Leaguers, and against the
negroes
