81 EMPHIS APPEAL
NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC TICKET.
HAYES As A pIsUNIOKIsT.

While the Republicans are abusing
the traitors who dared to dissolve this
glorious Union, they had better look to
the record of their candidate for the
Presidency. In letter bearing date
January 4, 1851, Governor Hayes said:
Disunion and civil war are at hand
and vet favor disunioD and civil war
less than compromise. We can recover
from them, The free States alone, II
We must go on alone, viii make gioTl-
Gus nation. DO not feel gloomy when
/ look forward, The reality is lees
frightfuI than the appTehensions which
We have all had these many years.
VTnlop shriekers! defsmers OF the re-
beIlion! read that. When the ME OF
,ho nation was inns-'''~S, and union
&c 0reasting the storm of ba.-
lie to preserve the Union, Governor
HAYES suggests dissolution by telling
his countrymen that the free States
would "make glorious nation" Mr..
Jefferson Davis thought the south
ern States would "make S
glorious nation" and how is
he more culpable than Governor
Hayes? We agree with the Cincinnati
Enquirer in the opinion that Hayes was
less aggressive, but he espOused the fun
damentsl idea not less surely than the
men who went to arms to separate the
Union. He looked forward to disuniOn
without gloom, which msy account for
the feebleuess with which he fought for
union. He said that the free States
alone would "make a glorious UniOn,"
and he regarded the Union that had
been anything but glorious, as is evident
from the "spprehensions" expressed in
this letter. When the Republican jour-
mails howl about the war record Of Mr..
Tilden or Mr.. Hendricks, let them re-
member that they are supporting can
didate who invited and babe welcome
to disunion in 1861; who was more
afraid of union than disunion; who
boosted that "we could recover" from
disunion, but was in doubt whether we
could recover from union.

One of MaXimiiian's followers has
been laDguishiug fer years IN Caliior-
MIA prison. BOumadis, alas Pablo Mar
tineZ, Of the Second regiment Of Tursos,
fell into the hands OF the MeXicans al
the battle OF San Pedro, and sitter
months OF weary confinement, eluded
the vigilance OF the guards, and secured
employment as s hsrCer ia California.
One day he found a saddle, which had
been stolen from his horse, in the pos
session OF a party Of MeXicans. With.
cut word ne charged upon them, but
they were five to one, aud dragging him
from his horse, bound him with cords.
While enc Of his tOrmenters was brand
ishing a huge knife over his head, he
suddenly broke the cords which bound
him, and Selling the weapon, struck
down three OF his enemies, and put the
others to flight. It was short hour OF
triumph, for he was arrested by the au-
thorities, and tried for murder. He
could speak neither Spanish nor Eng.
lish; his language was compound Of
Arabic and French, which no one could
understand; the MeXicans whom he had
frightened away swOIe positively against
him, and he was sentenced to San QusO-
tin for life. In the course Of years he
picked up few words OF English, and
finally aroused the sympathy OF menu
Der of the prison commission, who re-
peated mis- story to the resident French
consul. The governor has become con-
WINGED that the TuTcO acted in self-de-
fence, and has granted him a pardon,

of the State government for the year
1SI5 reached the press in adv ance of
its official delivery 20 the Legislature

to S6,43O,O99. The total receipts for
1874 were S5,S7I, ,96S-an increase of
SJ0S.13O The most of this increase
Is derived from the tax on corporation
stocks, from the tax on coal companies
and from tavern licenses. From cor
pora.ion stocks the revenue for 1919
is S2, l35,5S1 against Sl,399,0SS for
lSTi-an increase of nearly three
quarters of million dollars from
tn source alone. The increase of
TIE revenue from coal companies is

coal production of 1871, the year in
which it was passed. From tavern
Licenses the increase of revenue for
1915 over the preceding year is nearly

quence Of the want OF money in the
general revenue fund more than two
hundred thousand dollars of the usual
appropriation for charitable institu-
tions was cut of Among the expcn-
d;tures are several items which will
disappear next year or he greatly re-
ducad. One or these is the appropri-
alton for the Centennial, of which

A NOVEL PROPosITION.-The Jersey
City board of education recently received a
novel proposition from the Rev. Father
HenneSy, of st. Patrick's church, Jersey
City Heights. In a letter submitted to
the board he says that for six years he has
taught in his school nearly six hundred
children that lie fears that he will not be
able to support the schools longer, and that
the public schools i'll the neighDorhood
are not capable of accommodating more
scholars than they now contain. He closes
by proposing to place his parish under the
sole charge of the board free of charge for
use Of the school room or furniture, and
agreeing To himself furnish two male
teachers, one to act as principal at a salary
of $500, and the other assistant at salary
of $780, and also competent female teach
ers. The conditions imposed are that there
shall be no religious exercises N the school
save the reading of the Douay Bible in the
morning and the recitation Of the Lord S
Prayer. lie further says shat if appointed
head OF these schools he will serve without
pay and subject himself To the authority of
the school superintendent and the board.
The communication was referred to spe-
cial committee.
