The other day, while n Vicksburger
was riding toward Jackson In his buggy.
he saw long-haired Young map sitting
on 4 roadside fence. There was such
an air of utter dessolation about the
conntryman that the Vicksburger drew
rein and inquired:
For Gods sakel what ails you,
young man. -,
j" Nothing, for Gods sakel' was
the meek reply.
"But is any ybody dead?"

Mathews, and he went off two months
ago.

Andrew Johnson.

There is a maxim which says we should sPeaA
only good of the dead. Ordinarily, the maxim -
correct; but when the deceased was PuD"o
man. and the acts most necessary to be SPOKEN
of in his history were evil, it is impossioie 70
speak only good of him, and tel 'ne 'iU'"'
a man was Andrew johnson.
Mr.. johnson was remarkaoie man

personal integrity has never ooen iuo'''o0u'
that he was at heart lover Oh ms country sneie
is no doubt; and he never enncneo himself ny

uo never earned a reputation as lover Of
oifts or caused the feeling to prevail that rich
nresent was the surest passport to his official ia
vor. >When it was necessary to consult him up
on important public business, Hwas never neo-
essary to hunt him mp at some pleasure resort.
He never quartered his whole tribe of relations
in Government offices, where they all plundered
themselves rich. He never continued known
scoundrels in Office, because they were allowing
his relatives and favorites to speculate and plum
der He always thought more of the publie'ser
vice than he did of fast horse or fancy dog.
And he retired from Office comparatively poor,

made, or importuning for additional pay.
But in the most important crisis of the coun-
try, Andrew johnson was failure and a curse.
At the end of the rebellion, when the Southern
Confederacy was conquered, the rebels were in a
fit condition to submit to almost any terms.
They expected hanging, confiscation, and punish
ment of every grade, according to the enormity
of the offence. They were fit material to be re-
constructed on any terms, and to become peace
able, law-abiding citizens. At that crisis, Abra-
ham Lincoln was murdered, and Mr.. johnson be-
came President. At once his entire sentiments
changed-whether from ambition, stubborness,
or spite, is probably not known. The policy of
the Administration toward the prostrate rebels
was changed, and they at once felt a new hope
spring up within them, and their old spirit re-
vived. Johnson's policy encouraged and foster
ed this spirit; and from that day to the present,
the South has been a hell on earth. 1t is in
worse condition than at any time before or dur
ing the war, and the end no man can tell. Had
Lincoln lived, the result would have been differ
ent. johnson was responsible for it all.
Thus it is that good cannot be spoken of An
drew johnson, in writing of the most important
period of his public life.

Arrested.

Last week, United States revenue officer ar
rested G. b. Wilkinson and John L. Bittinger, OF
the st. Joseph Herald. Wilkinson was Collector
of Revenue for tha District, and Bittinger was
Gauger. The charges are, that Wilkinson was
connected with whiskey frauds, aud is far behind
in his accounts, and that Bittinger was also con-
nected with the frauds made false vouchers, and
drew salary for no service rendered. Both have
been suspended from Office.
So that has happened at last, which surprises
no one. The st. Joseph Herald, from its very
start, has been an unprincipled, mercenary sheet
changing front almost every year, and support
ing the side that paid it most. One year, it was
red-hot Republican, accommodating all who
did not swear by it. The next year, it was en-
gagged in breaking up the Republican party, and
handing over the State to the clutches of the De-
mocracy. Still the next year, it was the only
genuine Republican authority, and both its edit
ors were holding fat offices. 1t was characteriz-
ed by black-mail and subsidy, in every move
ment it made.
1t is customary in politics, to give newspaper
editors fair share of the offices. But here were
both editors of one paper in lucrative positions,
where they could act in concert. Why was thisi
First, it was because their religion is pap and
plunder, and both mouths had to be filled, to
keep them from squealing. The Herald was 4
leading and influential paper, and let on to be
more SO than it really was, and was willing to
play up the tune called "third term" or any 9TH
or tune required. Bittinger held his Office and
drew his salary as Gauger, while at Jefferson
City, serving as a member of the Legislature
Grants Civil Service rules prohibit a member of
the Legislature or Justice of the Peace from
holding 5000 post-offce. But Bittinger was
not disturbed in his fat Office, while sitting as
member of the Legislature. Whyi For the rea-
son above stated. The Herald knows how to
bambOozle the people on third term, and can set
up the pins to send the right kind of delegation
to the National Convention.
1t is said that Wilkinson and Bittinger will
both go to the Penitentiary. But they will do
no such thing, Wilkinson was Collector once
before, and defrauded the Government of thou
sands. He was allowed to cover it up, and was
not molested So it will be again. The Herald
is of too much Importance, just now, in helping
to bring about the Imperative necessity" which |

NEWSPAPER CHANGE. W. Roberts has sold
the Leavenworth Commercial to Joseph Clarke &
Co. Hon. James +. Legate takes charge of the
editorial department. He is one of the ablest
men and shrewdest politicians in the State, but
one who can easily accommodate himself to any
given line of policy. He says the paper will be
Republican, and be devoted to fighting against
Democrats, not against Republicans. He will
not discuss the Third Term, for that would imply
that Grant is q candidate. He does not believe
in resolutions against third term, but will sup
port the nominee. He might hays said, in plain
terms, that he is third term man, and proposes
to lull the suspicious of the people, so that, at
the proper moment, the offce-holders and Office
seekers can steal march upon them, and send
up third term delegation to the National Con-
vention. That's the meaning of it all. The plum
sought after, will appear in due time But the
Commercial can go ahead with its lullaby-the
Chief will attend to keeping them awake on the
third term question.

Morton ON Money.

Senator Morton, of Indiana, is stumping Ohio
in behalf of the Republican ticket. He delivered
a powerful speech at Urbana, last Saturday, in
which, in discussing the financial question: he
gave a clear statement of the legal tender ques-
tion, and hit Grant heavy back-hander on his
veto, and as it looks to us, rather punched sena-
tor Sherman and the Ohio Republicans under the
short ribs. Here is the substance of his remarks
on this point:
The acts of Congress of 1862 and 1868 author
ized the issue of legal tenders, commonly called
greenbacks, to the amount of s4O0, 100000, which
were to be issued from time to time. By an act
passed in 1854 to encourage the sale of our secu-
rites, the Government solemnly pledged itself
that the issue of greenbaeks should never exceed
s4OO,0O0,OO0. By subsequent acts, the amount
in circulation was reduced to sss6,OOO,OoO; but
the Secretary Of the Treasury held, and the Con-
gress confirmed the opinion, that s44,ooO,ooo OF
the amount retired constituted reserve fund'
that might be re.issued as the exigencies Of the
Government made il necessary. By direction OF
the President, the Secretary Of the Treasury, du-
ring the panic of 1873 issued s2s OO,OOO Of this
reserve-to relieve the Governmentf No; the
banksi When the fve-twenty bonds were put
upon the market, they wers psrcaased r'th Aese
greeRbacks, at par. The Finance COMMITTEES OF
the Senate, in 1866, reported making these green
backs legal tender for the payment OF debts.
Senator Sherman, as Chairman of the Committee,
made the report, ~ he had taken an active part
in the passage of all the currency acts. The act
vetoed by the President, which was called an in-
fation bill, did not propose 10 initiate single
dollar. 1t kept the msximeus smodnt at s4oo,-
5000, and did not even propose to reissue the
s1s 900 600 of retired greenbacks, but simply de-
clared the law what President Grant and the
Secretary of the Treasury had assumed it to be,
and upon which they had requested the action
of Congress, to remove all doubts But the bill
contained provision requiring National Banks
to keep their greenback reserves in their own
vaults and not deposit them in New York, where
they were loaned to stock -jobbers, and passed
into circulation. This gave rise to great opposi-
tiOn to the bill
Here it is, in nutshell. The bill prohibited
banks, which were not allowed to use their
own greenback reserves, from depositing them
in New York, where they were put in circulation
by stockholders to gamble with. This was why
the Eastern money gamblers opposed the bill,
and sent delegation to Grant, who, after being
seen by them, vetoed the bill which he himself
had asked for, in order to remove doubts; this is
the thing that the Republican party is being
whipped into; and for this, those who refuse to
be whipped in are denouced rs repudationists,
and in favor of worthl ess rag money!

Too TRUE.-The following, from the st. Louis
Dispatch, shows how the Democratic papers are
coming back at the Republican party with its
own ammunition. The worst of it is, it is all too
true. The Republican party created greenbacks,
made them a legal tender, and impeached every
mans loyalty who refused to like them. When
the question of their constitutionaity was tested
in the Supreme Court, an intense party press
ure was brought to bear upon the Court, and q
decision adverse to their legality would have
raised a howl of treason against the Supreme
Court of the United States. Now the same party
declares the greenbacks to be worthless rags, and
calls those who believe in them, Repudiationistsi
This is the way the Dispatch puts it:
