the anarchy in other Southern States
which are governed by officers chos-
en- through fraud and violence, which
disgrace the Christian people. He
expresses Il belief that Il remedy will
speedily come, and hopes that it will
be peaceful. There has never been
Il desire on the part of the North to
humiliate the South. Nothing is
claimed for one State that is not free
ly accorded TO all others, unless it
may be the right to kill negroes and
Republicans without fear of punish
ment, and without loss of caste or
reputation. This has seemed to be q
privilege claimed by few States.
In regard to Louisiana affairs, MUIR
ders and massacres of innocent men
for opinions sake, or on account of
color have been of too recent date
and of too frequent occurrence to re-

horrible details, the only wonder be-

apologize for them. Recently COM

WASHINGTON, August 1.-The fol-
lowing message was received by the
Senate from the President today:
In response to the resolution of the
Senate of July Goth, calling uponthe
President to communicate to the Sen
ate, if in his opinion not incompatible
with the public interest, any informa-
ton of the slaughter of American
citizens at Hamburg, S. c., have
the honor to submit the enclosures
relative to the Hamburg massacre.
These enclosures embrace all the in
formation in my possession touching
the late disgraccfuI and brutal slaugh-
ter Of unotfending men at the town
of Hamburg, etc. My letter to Gov.
Chamberlain contains all the COM
ments | wish 10 make on the sub
ject, as allusion is made in the letter
to the condition of other States, and
particularly to Louisiana and Missis-
sippi. | have added to enclosures
letters and testimonyin in regard to the
lawless condition of a portion of the
people of the latter State.
He reiterates the promise that he
will render every constitutional aid
TO protect the life and property
guaranteed TO citizens, and concludes
with the hope that a better CO.
operation of the citizens may enable
Governor Chamberlain to secure
fair trial and the punishment of all
offenders without aid from Federal
Government.

Hon. II. r. Claussen a prominent G.

Hon. III. r. Claussen a prominent Ger
man citizen of Davenport and two years
ago represented Scott county, in the Iowa
State Senate, has come out fair and
square for Hayes and Wheeler, and given
his reasons for doing so. He supported
Horace Greeley for President in 1872.
He gives the following as some of his
reasons, which would pay some of our
German friends to read:
"Now let us see what we may reasona-
bly, expect from Tilden. What evidence
has the country of his character?
Tilden is an attorney for railroad COM
panies, and by his speculations has a
vast amount Of money; his means are val
ued at several millions of dollars Be-
fore his election, as Governor, in 1874,
he had been member of the Legislature,
and of the Constitutional Convention, in
the State of New York; he has never
been in Congress. During the war, Til
den was active in publishing Copperhead
pamphlets, and in 1864 he was a mem
Der Of the Committee of the Democratic
National Convention, which declared the
war failure, and required a cessation of
hostilities and peaceable settlement,
though such was then impossible without
yielding to the Southern States separa-
tion from the Union.
There is clear proof against Tilden,
that he was friend and political asso-
ciate of VIM. NJ Tweed, in the manage
ment of the Democratic party in the
State of New York. "This disreputable
association" says Hdrper's Weekly, "con
tinued until the wal on the Ring was in
fair way to succeed, and it was only
when the Tammany thief was in imme,
date danger of overthrow that Mr.. Til,
den Joined in the movement against him "
Tweed was convicted, but escaped out
of his prison Has the Governor Til
den) instituted prosecutions against the
guilty guardians of the imprisoned great
rascal? Tilden's connivance at the es-
cape of Tweed can hardly be doubted
The st. Louis, Alton Il Terre Haute
railroad companies has instituted suit
against Tilden and others as their trus-
tees for the recovery of nearly 100000,
which money, it is charged, is the prop
erty of the company, and is injustly ap.
propriated by their trustees A number
Of questions, published in the newspapers
are required to be answered under oath
by the defendant. Tilden has delayed
his answer and applied for postpone
ment to next October Bristow acted
differently. Whenever charge was
brought against him he was eager for an
immediate and thorough investigation.
From these and numerous other facts
of similar character, and from the testi
mony of prominent men in New York
there are many good reasons to suspect
Tilden as dishonest. A leading Demo
cratic paper in the State of New York
the Argus, of Brooklyn, says: "Tilder
is a political trickster, and as reformer
fraud as business man, smirched.'

Now that many of the teachers are to-

well the work before them. Do not at
tempt too much, Cultivate the faculty Of

Ed. EDUCATIONAL Dept HERALD
Dear Sir:-There is one subject in con-
nection with the education of our children
to which should be glad to call your
attention, and that is about teaching them
to write. Our children attended a dis
trict school last term, where they were
taught physiology, and of course l ap-
prove of that for those who areold enough
to understand it, but l think it would
strike even "tall talking Americans as
something ludicrous to hear little child
not six years old talking of "patella",
"occipital", "parieial", bones, etc.; while
at the same time, he was not taught a
stroke of writing, or figures of any kind.
1t seems but reasonable to expect that all
children who attend school should be
taught to read, write and count; and do
hope you will make these two latter indis-
pensable lessons in the course pursued by
the teacher in our school and | doubt not,
there are many parents who feelthe same
on the subject as we DO
l think that young America generally,
would be much improved at least in writ
ing if more attention was paid to this
very useful accomplishment instead of
flying so high and getting crammed with
algebra, mathematics, high sounding
phrases, ETC., before correct spelling or
good writing be attained ...
There are many, believe, who write
essays which contain beautiful and we'll
thought out ideas, but just look at the
manuscript of those same essays and how
are they written? and how are they spelt?
With children, | should not give them
choice, but make them write every day
they attend school, and what trouble
would it be to student of older years to
write copy each day and keep his hand
in practice. "What is worth doing at all,
is worth doing well" says the old proverb.
l feel strongly on the subject of having
children thoroughly grounded in useful
education, and hope you will excuse me
for expressing myself. With kind regards,
I remain your friend sincerely,

LETTER FROM WASHINGTON.
Special Correspondence.

Special Correspondence.
WASHINGTON, June Is, 1876.
Much excitement was occasioned, yes
terday, when rumors that Mr. Blaine
had been stricken with paralysis first
became prevalent on the street, and when
it was definitely known that he was ly-
ing comatose at his home in the west
end, the enthusiasm which had been
manifested for him last week, during his
fierce and successful assaults upon the
rebel democracy, took the form of pro-
found sympathy for him and his dis
tressed family. / have never known this
city more profoundly moved than during
the period from his removal home from
the church where first attacked, and the
hour when tie first reassuring intelli-
gence came that he was gradually recov-
ering consciousness and had full use of
his limbs, thus precluding apOplexy or
paralysis, which were successfully men
toned as causes of the sudden illness.
The house was besieged with anxious
seekers for particulars, among them Cab
met and many other officials. and some
Democratic Congressman. The telegraphs
were loaded with messages from all sec
tions. particularly from Cincinnati, show
ing the universal interest felt in the ex.
Speaker all over the country; and last
evening, when it was known that his at
tending physician had declared it to b
a partial sun-strOke-an attack which
his great expenditure Of nerve force dur
ing the week, and the heat Of the SUI
peculiarly invites-everybody appeareC
relieved, and comforting messages wer
forwarded in reply to the anxious one
received.
At no time during the session has tn
spirit Of hatred animating the rebel an
cOpperhead majority in the House, give
more unequivocal evidence Of its pres
enee, than during the week just passed
: and Of its malignant and unscrupulOu
character there can be no doubt. b
