Horace Greeley.

q p a 4 3 f.4 p "a. Ga l 8r g. .
! Senator Bayard in a speech upon the
Louisiana question made the following
remarks about Mr.. Greeley :: ). s's'..5, +,
1t was once my duty to stand in po-
liticsl convention composed almost en-
tirelY of Jealous advocates for the nom
ination for the Presidency of Horace
Greeley, and there to express my views
as an independent thinker, yielding my
contribution of an honest judgement in
qualification Off not in decided oppo-
sition to-the prevailing sentiment of
those who surrounded me- Time has in
some degree enabled us to judge of the
correctness of what then said and adj
vised, and have no other object in this
reference than to express my present
sense of what this country owes to-day
to the great-hearted man, whose name
was mentioned in debate on this Louisi-
ana question some weeks ago in such
disrespectful association by the Senator
from New York, Mr.. Conkling. ~.
The nomination of Horace Greeley
had sits impulse largely among the
Southern white people, whose opinions
and prejudices had for more than one
generation been strongly arrayed
against him. There had been no repre-
sentative man of the past more signaily
the opponent of what may be called the
Southern system of thought and political
action, than Horace Greeley. He had
lived to see that system utterly over
thrown and revolutionized by force of
arms, and in the wreck his ear caught
the cry of human misery and sorrow that
ever accompanies such sweeping changes
in society, and his kind heart recognized
the appeal. From the surrender of the
Southern armies until the grave closed
over his form, believe the paramount
object of Horace Greeley's life was to
bring his fellow countrymen to better
understanding with each other, and in
augurate an era of peace and good will
which should cement our union of States
and make American citizenship a tie of
fraternity in all sections of the country.
To accomplish this, he risked much
that he valued he braved great pecuni-
airy loss, the indignation of his former
political and personal allies, the angry
denunciations of official power, and q
partisan press. To reunite his country
men IN the bonds of mutual kindness
and good will be severed the bands of
party organization, and became the lead
er OF political forlorn hope, so far as
the fate of an immed late canvass was
concerned. And then he died. But the
seed sowed in good life did not die ;
it is to-day t1Ourishing in the hearts of a
generous people. Nearly three million
voters in 1872, of whom over 80 per cent
were democrats, responded to the senti-
ment for which Mr.. Greeley struggled.
Men looked into each others eyes with
trust and not distrust. The hands of
former political opponents met in friend
ly clasp, and sectional hatreds and geo
graphical lines were Obliterated from
the hearts and memories of those who
heard or read the wise and patriotic
speeches made by him in the summer
and fall of 1872.

BUTTER.


At st. Adams the market Tuesday was
dull with very little offering. We quote
common to fair at Is to 18c; medium to
good 10 to zoe selections % to 24c ;
gilt edge %.
AT Utica, the butter market seems to
have reached bottom. The traffic in
creases at the low range of prices. Great
sacrifices have been made, and it is adj
Vised to apply good personalities to
what good stock may be on hand rather
than go below the present marks. Prime
fall is more plenty at 90 to CSC per
pound, with exceptional lots at SOC !;
poor winter butter unstable.
AT Boston the receipts continue arge-
ly in excess of last year, footing up 1904
packages, against 1861 packages for the
corresponding week last year, and 2209
in 1878. The market has been very
much depressed, and it is almost useless
to give quotations. There have been
but few buyers, and the sales have been
at irregular prices, ranging principally
from 90 to 25c per pound. Some receiy-
ers report sales above 25c, but the ma
joritY say that it is hard to get 25c, for
straight lots of the best quality, and that
they would not refuse an offer of 23c
per pound. Common butter is now
down to shipping point, and some buy
ers have been around on foreign account.
1t is reasonable to suppose that the
lowest point has been touched, and that
buyers will soon commence to operate,
but not much Improvement is to be
looked for until the receipts fall off
CHEESE.
At Utica the situation in cheese is
maintained with little change, except in
extent of transactions. The trade of
last week used up more stock than the
recent weekly trade, and the low and
ordinary goods are working out first,
which is not bad feature. Quotations
are at 13@16c per pound.
At Boston the receipts for the week
were S41 boxes. There is no material

The Louisiana Debate Ended.

The struggle over the Louisiana reso-
lutieHs in the Senate ended on Tuesday
in the adoption, by solid Republican
vote, of the resolution of Mr.. Freling-
huysen as amended by Mr.. Anthony.
The resolution as passed read as follows
ResoJUed, That the action of the Presi-
dent in protecting the government of
Louisiana, of which w. P. Kellogg is
the executive, and the people of that
State against domestic violence, and en-
forcing the laws of the United States, is
approved.
The following Interpretation of the
resolution was given by Senator Chris
tianey of Michigan. He said that he
understood the substitute offered by the
Senator from Rhode Island, first, as an
implied recognition of the Kellogg gov
eminent, merely as one in the actual ex-
ercise of governmental power in Louisi-
ana without reference to the question of
its rightful origin or legal validity, and
ia no way involving the propriety of its
establishment second, that il approves
the Presidents action 80 far only as di-
rected merely to the protection of that
government and the people of that State
against domestic violence and civil war,
ana TO the enforcement of the laws of
tle United States without approving any
Interference of the military with legis-
fative body, or in the creation of State
government. Such being, as it seems to
me, the most natural and obvious sense
of the language, and the sense in which
1t will be most naturally understood by
the people, while | adhere to the princi-
pies and conclusions which | announced
here in my remarks on the 10Th instant,
and W hich | here adopt by reference,
without Tetraction or qualification, and
while ] hold that recognition by the
Senate or by Congress of government
thus initiated can give itno greater valid
ity t'han it had in its inception, still, as
dom este violence and civil war, which
may lead to a complete dissolution of
society, are not the best remedies for
get ting rid of even an Legitimate gov
er nment, | can approve the action of
lie President directed to the humane
I purposes mentioned in this amendment
'or substitute offered by the Senator
from Rhode Island, and believing the
recognition of this government, for this
purpose and to this extent, is justifiable
under the peculiar circumstances now
existing in that State, until, by fair
election, more Legitimate government
can be initiated. | can vote for the
resolution in the sense | have here at
tributed to it, But in the enlarged and
odious sense which has been attributed
to it by some of the speakers on the
other side, could not vote for it, and |
most deliberately avow my conviction
that in such sense, or any sense which
would assert the validity of the action
by which that government was origi-
naly set up and put in power, it could
not secure the votes of majority of
this body.

THE BEST PROTECTION.

The best safeguards against epidemic
diseases are thorough digestion and firm
nerves. 1t is because they assure the reg
ular performance of the digestive process
and invigorate the nervous system. that
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters are such a
sovereign protective agains tthe Infu-
ences which beget intermittent maladIes,
and those which directly affect the stom-
ach and bowels If the nerves are health
fully tranquil, the assimilation of food
perfect, as they are sure to be under the
influence of this standard tonic and ner-
vine, malaria may be defied, and if, in the
absence of the most reliable of medical
safeguards, the system has fallen a prey
to disease of an intermittent or remi ttent
type, the bitters will, If persisted in, Grad
icate every vestige of the malady. Bill
Housnes, constipation and dyspepsia yield
with equal certainty to the operation of
this potent vegetable Alternative.

THE DECADENCE OF HILL
TOWNS.

We have several times referred to the
change which is coming over the hill
towns Of New England. 1t is a matter
of great interest. The fact is undeniable
and the causes for it are, many of them
at least, not difficult to explain. The
following letter to the Springfield Union
from hill town in Western Massachu-
sets has suggestion of remedy which
is worth considering: .......
The decrease in population and ma
teFIal resources OF many of our hill
towns has been, of late, so marked as to
give rise to the fear that our financial
aDillty may eventually be so far curtailed
as 10 seriously affect the prosperity of
our public schools, and ultimately to
close our houses of religious worship.
one OF the more obvious causes of this
decline, 1t is believed, may be found in
our not approaching the necessity and
atillty OF submitting to temporary indi-
Yidual sacrifice for a general and per.
manent good. The manner in which car
communities attained to their former
prosperity may illustrate this priaeiple.
Farmers were the first OCCUPANTS of the

thus combining the elements of a gen

cial instincts were fully met, and every
interest duly upheld, while trusting 10

petition, to correct any tendenCy 10 in
equality in the avails of different
branches of industrial labor While the
disposition TO encourage home enter
prise, and to avoid making themselves
out adJuncts to neIghbol1ng towns and
villages was retained, our citizens were
contented, and real estate retained its
eAchangeable value. The reverse of this

In DIFFERENT parts OF the country the
old New England spelling school has
been revived during the winter, and
much amusement and profit too doubt
less has been the result. One of the
most amusing of these spelling matches
was recently held in St. Louis, its chief
interest arising from the prominence in
politics or business of leading partici-
pants. "The first citizens" says one of
our exchanges, 'swere all present, and,
after the singing of an anthem, which
had been altered over to express ortho-
graphical aspirations and sentiments, the
contest began. 1t was the irony of fate
which caused L. U. Reavis, the capital
mover, after glibly spelling several hard
words, to stumble and fall over "capi-
tolian." George Knapp, of the st.
Louis Republican, was enabled by proof
reading experience, to wrestle manfully
and successfully with numerous doughty
compounds, until at last he wrecked
upon the word LAGOON. Ex-senator
Carl Schurz spelled in manner to re-
fleet the highest credit upon the 'inde-
pendent" party, until he undertook to APP
ply independent principles to the spell
ing of the word 'tpianissimo," and found
public opinion against him. Henry T..
Blow was foundered by "tempestuous.
Ex-senator and ex-candidate for vice
President Gratz Brown then tempted
fate. In the fitness of things Gratz
should have missed on watermelon, -"
but he went on famously till he struck
his flag to ''cosmographical." Captain
Eads of st. Louis bridge and Mississippi
jetty fame did remarkably well, but
finally failed on peerless"

~ INLPORTANT FACT.

AN IMPORTANT FACT.
The voluntary testimony oS thousand
establishes beyond all doubt a fact of vi
tai importance to the sick and debilitated,
viz, that Hostetter's Stomach Bitters is
an absolute specific for remittent and in
termittent fever, dyspepsia, constipation,
biliousness, mental depression, sleepless-
ness, chronic diarrhna, and all diseases of
the stomach, liver and bowels. The I'M
medicated stimUlants usually prescribed
in these cases only aggravate the symp-
toms, instead OF removing them. The Bit
tiers, on the contrary, act as a corrective
and invigorant, without producing the
unpleasant and dangerous consequences
of the old school practice. The action Is
mild and soothing to the irritated stom-
ach and bowels, promoting digestion and
preventing fiatulence, nausea, headache,
and all intestinal irregularities A wine
glassful before meals greatly assists diges-
ton. The convalescent may use them
with great benefit, as means of restoring
strength and chePrfulnRSS.

SINCE Gen. sheridan took command
in New Orleans in JaDuary, there has
not been single negro massacre report
ed in the State of Louisiana. There has
been some clustering among the cow
ardly desperadoes who were character
lied in, as many thought, bretty harsh
style in Sheridan's famous dispatch. But
the effect of his presence among them
has been so far good. He is bad man
for some kinds of business and they
know it. There has been nothing vim
dictive or severe in the treatment which
the men have received who were engag-
ed in the massacre of the 14th of Sep.
TENDER, in which seventy persons were
killed in the streets of New Orleans.
Not man has been punished since
the interference of Sheridan there has
been a season of peace, which must be
gratifying to all men.
