Mr.. WILLIAMS OF Wisconsin. recently
proposed an important modification OF
Mr.. Blains's constitutional amendment
on the school and religious questions.
His proposition is designed TO settle the
whole subject matter In controversy
aud forever remove the common
school question from national politics.
Mr.. Blains's amendment provides that
no money raised BY taxation in any State
for the support Of public schools. or do.
rived from any public fund therefor. nor
any public land devoted thereto, shall
over DO under the control Of any re-
ligious scot; nor shall any money 80
raised. or lands so devoted. DO divided
between religious sects or denomina-
tons. Mr.. Williams amendment adds
tho following: Neither shall money
raised by taxation in any State DO ap-
propriatsd for the maintenance Of any
ssctarian school or ssctarian institu-
ton" The practice has grown up In
all the States Of incorporating "St.
Mary's." "St. Peters," Sc. Johns"
etc.. charity schools or institutions.
which are simply Catholic schools. Re-
course ia then had to the Legislature the
next year for appropriations to those in.
stitutions for charitable and benevolent
objects. Local politicians yield to the
pressure. and vote thousands Of dollars
out OF the general fund for these pur.
poses. The evil has become very great
In New York. Massachusetts,, Wisconsin.
and other States. Mr.. Blains's amend.
msnt does not reach this class Of cases.

The Democratic sages have agreed upon a
platform, but one which contains nothing
definite except demand for the repeal Of the
resumption act. The platform is only string
OF denunciations. and is therefore in harmony
with the action OF the party for the last sixteen
years; for it has done nothing as party in all
this time which entities it to the confidence Of
the public in it's ability, honesty or capacity.
Growing has been its sole occupation-oppos-
ing every measure, but proposing none. In
stead OF seeking to Jam the confidence OF the
public by marking out some definite line OF
policy. it has only attempted to Brighten people
into its support by denunciations OF the Repub-
hcan party.-Golden Rule.

Tho Democratic platform OF 1864 declared
tho war failure, and advised dsgraceful
surrender. The people spurned the advice,
AMI defeated the ticket that approved 1t. Yet
twelve years after the man who wrote tie trea-
sonabie resolution and was instrumental IN Sc
curiug 1t as a plank in the platform Is put for
ward by the same party he then served as a
candidate for President of the [ nited states.
Hs name is Samuel J. Tden. Can any man
who has a spark OF patriotism in his breast
support such man for the head Of the nation
He was untrue in time Of war. Can ne be trust
O. in time OF peace?

The Greenville Advocate once complained of
the anti-secession clauses in the new constitu-
ton Of Alabama. The editor is still unhappy,
and declares that this is the first year since the
war when the people Of Alabama have manifest
cd any interest in the 4th Of July. 1t does not
give the reason for their patriotism being now
awakened but 1t is PLAIN that the nomination
of ilden and Hendricks is the reason. One
Of these candidates helped to frame the plat
form declaring the war failure" and the
other made the meanest copperhead speeches
In Indiana, and voted in congress against the
constitutional amendments which abolished
slavery aud enfranchised the African race.
The Alabama democracy hope soon to see the
confederacy uppemost, with two northern
copperheads In the highest seats OF power So
they eau afford to celebrate again.-Lansing

Edward NJ. Stoughton, the distinguished law
YER said in his speech on taking the chair to
preside over the great demonstration in New
York, to ratify the nomination OF Hayes and
Wheeler:
Believing therefore, rs do, that MIR, Til
den, II elected would be controlled in the inter-
ests OF his party, and not having faith either in
his genius or in his mission as q reformer, l
cannot but fear that should he be elected the
country would be subject to that somewhat
vulgar and revengeful tyranny which has for
some time past dominated, and which still
reigns in the House OF Representatives, and
should expect this soon to lead to the substan-
tial undolng OF much IN the south which 1t has
cost the North inestimable blood and treasure
to create and establish and l should fear also
reputation or it's entering wedge within the
next four years for who can doubt that the
Southern Democrats would rejoice to know
that public debt incurred to subdue their peo-
pie into subsection to the constitution and the
laws no longer existed as a burden upon them.
To thus feel is 1t harmony with human nature,
and were the power and the hour to concur, IL
would not surprise me to see an attempt to-
pard population in some form, perhaps in q
reduction Of interest, perhaps In payments by
PROMISES in accordance with the theory OF Hen
dricas and his followers. AT all events, pre-
fer to trust the fate OF our country for some
time to come In the hands of the party which
for years has done 80 much in shaping the des-
times Of our people. In our nominees for
President and Vice President we have men OF
capacity and large experience in public affairs
men. too. of character irreproachable. Both
are worthy Of trust and they stand shoulder to
shoulder upon platform which does not pal.
ter in double sense. Each is in harmony
with the other, and both are true representa-
tives OF the party they lead"

Now and Then" the Washington corr

Now and Then" the Washington CORES

The Southern Rebels have begun the cam

murder OF ten coored republicans at Hamburg,
S. {. There don't seem to have been the sight
est justification for this fiendlsh outrage, and
no other motive than 10 overawe other republi-
cans. Murder is the system Of tactics they
nave adopted to aid the election of Tilden.
protect their lives it will be continued with
steadily increasing fury as the day of election
approaches. So unwarrantable and perfectly
without justification was this Hamburger slaugh-
ter that even the Charleston News and Courier,
the leading democratic organ in South Carolina,
IS forced to denounce it as wllful, unproyoked
murder. But no northern copperhead paper
will ever utter word OF condemnation, and
most Of them will probably attempt to palliate
the crime.

6ome five or six years ago Congress charter
cd street railroad in this city, to run from the
Treasury Department out through q" North
End" to the Bladensburg pike. No subsidy was
granted or asked-Congress merely named the
corporators and granted the charter. In due
time company was organized to build the
road, and a duly authorized officer called,
among others, upon Senator Chandler, and
asked him to take few shares Of stock to help
to start the enterprise, and he received, in sub
stance, the following respectful and explicit
reply:
"I make it the lnvariable rule OF nv life, -
said the Michigan Senator, mot to take stock

The road was, however, built, and proved TO
