The platform adopted declares in favor of a
complete reconciliation between the Northern
and Southern States, but wants it done on the
basis of justice and equal rights. On the cur
rency question it is decided in declaring for a
specie basic, but demands repeal of so much
of the Resumption act as provides day for
resumption and then asks Congress to let the
currency alone, neither expanding nor con-
tracing it, being satisfied that our financia
troubles will heal themselves if left to the
operations of the natural laws of trade and
commerce. It also declares for an absolute

About Advertising.

In letter from one OF our Oldest adj
vertising customers we have the fol-
lowing inquiry: Why is it that the
best English papers charge SO much less
for advertising than ours p
Admitting the premises on which this
question is based to be correct7-an 1t
is undoubtedly the case that the average
advertising rates of American papers are
higher than those of English journals of
corresponding characterize answer is
not difficult to give. In the first place,
the circulation of English journals is
smaller in numbers than our own. Each
copy, however, probably goes into the
hands of more readers, SO that the differ
ence to the advertiser is partly made up
in this way. But it is not alone in the
publication of larger edition that the
expense of the American publisher is
increased, but he pays far higher prices
for every line of type probably
more than double English wages for
every kind of labor entering into the
manufacture of the journal, and con-
siderabiy higher price for the paper on
which it is printed. Then the competi-
ton against which he contends compels
him to reduce his subscription rates to
a point at which the subscriber. as COM
pared with the advertiser, pays smaller
proportion of the expense of making the
paper here than there. Country Gen

A yement to Open the Black Hill s.

A meeting was held lately in Washing
ton, at the rooms of Mr.. Kidder, the dele
gate from Dakota, at which nearly all
the Congressman from the Northwestern
States were present, the object of which
was to discuss and adopt a method look
ing to the opening of the Black Hills.
The President and the Secretary of War
are of the opinion that it would be i'm
possible to keep miners out of the hills,
and although they will not acknowledge
it, it is known that the military have had
orders not to disturb either those who
are already in the hills, or those who are
on their way there. When Gen. Sheri-
dan was in Washington the matter was
talked over very freely with the Presi-
dent, and such position as stated above
was reached.

WISCONSIN ITEMS.

AT La Crosse, on Saturday of last
week, a Bohemian named Msna, made
threats and attempted to murder his
wife and children. The wife, assisted
by her son, after a severe struggle, got
a butcher-knife from Msna. He then
went into another room, and, securing a
carving knife, stabbed himself twice In
the abdomen, inficting two ugly wounds,
from which he died next morning.
About year ago Msna received a slight
shock from a stroke of lightning, since
which time he has not been wholly sane.
AT Milwaukee, last Sunday, an in
quest was held over the body of an old
woman named Maria Parker, which end
ed in verdict that her death was the
result Of blows inflicted by young man
named David Spellane, and that the said
Spellane was temporarily insane at the
time of the commission of the murder.
Spellane had manifested symptoms of
insanity for some time past. On Satur-
day morning, at the residence of her
mother, he felled Mrs. Parker, and re-
peated his blows until the woman's skull
was terribly fractured. The victim
lived about an hour after the onslaught.
Spellane was Immediately placed in
custody.
THERE was stylish party given at
the Capitol last Friday night, by the

timent: "1776, the year that tried
mems souls 1876, the year Of rejoicing
for the souls of all those who keep step
to the music of the Union" George n.
Peck, of the Lacrosse San, made very
humorous speech in response. Mrs. H.
M. Page sang the MarseiIlaise hymn in
costume as Daughter of the Regiment,
which was received with applause. She
responded with "The Star Spangled
Banner" with Centennial variations.

The Centennial Appropriation.

Permission was given Representative
Springer, of Illinois, to make personal
explanation In the House the other day,
in regard to editorial comments In the
Herald upon his amendment to the Cen
ennial bill. Mr.. Springer's amendment
made the Government preferred stock
holder in the Centennial, and expressly
provided that the Government should
be repaid its loan of 81, 100000 before
any division Of profits among the stock
holders. The Centennial Board Of
Finance now claim that the letter of the
law is that in q case of this kind it is
impossible to give preference TO the
Government over individual stock
holders, and hence the Government can
only secure its $1,500,O00 loan after
the stockholders have been paid.
Mr.. Springer, in his explanation, said
that there existed no law for placing
such construction upon the wording of
the Centennial Board of Finance proposed
to construe it that way, they would go
before the country as having perpetrated
one of the biggest steals on record. He
concluded by offering aresolution direct
ing the Secretary OF the treasury to
withhold the appropriation, or any
amount thereof, until the Secretary of
the Board of Finance shall make an
agreement to fulfill the literal meaning
Of the appropriation and give security
for the fulfllment of their agreement.
No action was taken upon the resolution,
and it will be brought up at some other
time.
Mr., Kelley, Of Pennsylvania, said that
the construction put upon the bill by
the Centennial Board of finance was one
sustained by Jeremiah S. Black and the
late Reverdy Johnson, and that if
necessary the matter would be carried to
the courts for decision. He chuckled
aloud over what he was pleased to term
the "gift of the gentleman from Illinois"

The Secret of Educating FIeas.

The editor of La Nature has been
investigating feas, with view of dis
covering where, in those aggravating in
sects, resides the capability Of being
educated. His conclusion is radical he
says they cannot be educated, and that
all the tricks SO ingeniously exhibited by
self-styled trainers are merely caused by
the natural efforts of the insect to escape.
Any one can make them draw minute
wagons or go through similar per-
formances, if care be taken to secure
them to their work so that they cannot
jump. It seems to us, however, that
it must require considerable skill and in
genuity to hold the lively creatures
while the securing operation is in prog
reSs.
