Vhe Shoottup Match

a SnOOU1nB maCcn was nau at Zen
treville, last Saturday, between the
Richmond and Centreville Rifle Clubs.
The Richmond club was represented
by MeSSrS. VIM. Burgess, AlonZo Carey,
j. Il. Brumfiel, John Jones, Jas. Con-
nor. Robert Connolly, and Robert
Brown. The Centreville club were all
on hand. Owing to the incIemency of
the weather the number of spectators
was not as large as was expected.
Another circumstance to diminish the
attendance was the fox hunt, which is
in progress there. Some fine shooting
was done, and five matches were had.
The distance was 90 yards, and two
shots were allowed. The premiums
were won by the following parties:
First match. r. Brumfiel, 1st:
Alonzo Carey, I'd.
Second MATCH. r. Brumfiel, LIST;
IL. Brown, I'd.
Third match-R. Brown, LIST. Eli E.
EndSlev, I'd. ssaE
Fourth match-Oliver Brumfiel, 1St:
Eli Endsley, I'd.
Fifth William Burgess, Ist;
Oliver Brumfiel. I'd: j. r. Brumfiel, Sd,
The next match is to be given by the
Richmond club, and takes place on the
bank of the river just above the bridge,
next Saturday Premiums will be all
cash, and some good shooting may be
expected. No doubt a large number of
spectators will be present.
The Richmond club intend taking
other grounds soon, in the neighbor-
hood of the toll-gate, west of the city.
A small house, fifteen feet square, will
be erected on the premises for the
comfort of those attending the
matches.
Through the kindness of Mr.. Charles
Highly, of this city, a member of the
American Club, we are able to give the
score of a match at New Ulm Park,
on Thanksgiving day. Maj. Henry Full
ton, of the American Team, was pres
ent, but shot under the disadvantage
of using cartridges of too light calibre
for his rifle. giving him great uncer-
tainty. Capt. VIM. Erckhardt was pres
ent, and made the three best consecu-
tive shots ever made on the grounds.
A Alyer, of Kansas City, was present.
The sport lasted from 2 o'clock until
dusk.
In the first match seven entries
We're made. three shots to decide The
score stood as follows: Capt Erck-
hardt 25, 23, %, making total of 20;
Maj. Fulton, Sc; VIM. Simmons. 30:
A. Meyer, A: Capt. f. Hopkins, 40; A.
Burvenick, II; Charles Highly, 40.
In the second match Capt Hopkins
won by a score of a in two shots. over
nine competitors; A. Meyer won the
third match, by a score of 43 i'm two
shots, over seven competitors; Charles
/ Fuelling won the fourth match by a
score of 43: and the fifth was won by
/ A. .Burvenick, score, s.. Darkness
coming on, the fifth match was the
last.

enemy, and the Age takes sides with
them.
If the editors of the Age had talk
en- the trouble to have inquired into
our history, they would have learned
that we have done far more than
Mr.. Donnelly and all his adherents
to organize the anti-monopoly party
in this State. That this was done
while Donnelly and his friends were
yet in the republican ranks; and
that, until they joined and obtained
control Of it, it was an influential
and partially successful organization.
Attracted to it by its prospects of
success, they joined and obtained
control of it, and seeking to use it
for their own advancement rather
than for the popular good, they soon
succeeded in running it, and depriv-
ing the people Of the advantages its
organization might have afforded.
Now, because we would not fol-
low these ambitious miscreants into
the democratic organization, and
aid in hosting them into lucra-
tive Offices, they turn upon us and
denounce us as having sold out to
the republicans, and the Age lends
itself to extend the circulation of
the falsehood. Personally we make
no complaint of this, but it detracts
from our influence and impairs our
ability to do good, and, meanwhile,
strengthens the hands of those who
oppose US and who desire only to
deceive the people that they may
use and abuse them. The Age
ought to know that nothing retards
reform more than charlatanism and
dishonesty on the part of those who
become it's ostensible leaders, and
instead Of aiding these, it should use
its influence in behalf of those whose
fidelity to the cause is proved by
their works.

Common Sense,

Does not the Red Wing Grange Advance
think that the first step to take after organs
ization is to get the present specie contrac-
ton and wealth worshipping national admin
istration out of power? What can it ex.
pect while it is in power? How can the
grange get it out by continually helping it
by attempts at disorSaniz:ng and throwing
fre-brands among its opponents Indus

The GRANGE ADVANCE does
think "that that the first step to take
after organization is to get the pres
ent specie contraction and wealth
worshipping national administration
out Of power" but Mr.. Donnelly
and some other pretended anti-mo
nopoly reformers in this locality
thought that the first step for them
to take was to get themselves in
Office, and to accomplish this were
willing to disorganize and lend them
selves and the party to the specie
contraction and wealth worshipping
leaders of the democracy. We ask
ed what they could expect with these
old democratic corruptionists in pow
err And fatty refused to have any
thing to do with putting them there

satellites denounced us traitor tt

The New York Sun finds fault with
the report Of the Secretary of the Treas
ury, because it does not give details Of
the expenses Of the State, Treasury, In
terror and judicial departments. It
says that the "civi and miscellaneous
items'' averaged $26,943,66s per year
for the six years ending July LIST, 1861,
about $39, 500, 900 per year for the eight
years from 1861 till 1869, and $64, $780,
757 per year from 1869 till 1875; and
it wants to know why this increase
occurs.
Prof. E. P. Tauser, of New Or
leans, has recently preached a new
theory Of the planetary system, in which
he utterly repudiates the Copernican
theory as we'll as Kepler's laws and
Newton's gravitation, and accounts for
all the physical phenomena of the plan
etary system in a novel yet not unrea-
sonable manner.
-"Murder and matricide'' is the
heading of an article in a New York
paper, and it was to get her money to
buy whiskey with that this wretch killed
his own mother.

A Little Moratizjnq.

Now, that the election is over and
the occasion for animosities no
longer exists, we hope our readers,
and especially our contemporaries,
will excuse us for briefly moralizing
upon what is still fresh in our men,
cries. First, it is the habit of news
papers and public men to urge the
people to attend party caucuses and
conventions, and use their influence
in getting the right kind of platforms
adopted and such men as they pre-
fer nominated. But just as soon as
any man steps forward and assumes
a position at variance with that as
signed him by the party leaders, the
newspapers seem to regard him only
as fitting subject for ridicule and
defamation. This is surely wrong,
and its influence upon society only
damaging. Its effect is to place the
control of the politics of the country
in the hands of the shameless and
unprincipled, for worthy, sensitive
men shrink from such ruf1ianly treat
ment, which they may not resent.
Again, as soon as man is nom-
mated for Office, no matter what his
merits, the papers of his party laud
HIM to the skies, while those oppos-
ing denounce him without stint.
Take the recent canvass, for in
stance. With three or four excep-
tons, every man on the several
tickets was worthy and competent
to fill the position for which he was
chosen; yet, take the word of the
party papers for it, and we would
have to believe that, while the can
didates of one side we're. peerless,
those Of the other party were set
of INSCRIPTIONS knaves, destitute
alike of principle and ability. What
is the result? Why, that the neigh
h0rs Of these men who krou, them
on reading the false statements made
for or against them, have their con-
hdence in newspapers destroyed,
and come to look upon newspaper
writer's as wholly unworthy of con-
fdence.
Let us all resolve for the future
to refrain from these evil practices,
to argue questions that come before
us logically, to treat candidates and
all other public men justly, have the
public welfare in view in all that we
do, and be governed by the princi
pies which should actuate gentlemen
in our intercourse with each other;
By so doing we shall strengthen ou'
influence with the people, contribute
