LIBERTY OF CONSCIENCE.

How far the liberty of conscience, which
is supposed to be guaranteed to every cti.
zen of tho United States, will protect
man in the Disregard of express statute
laws is in fair way of beiug decided in
Minnesota. Months ago, one Leo Miller

but without going through with the cere-
mony required by law, or being subj ct to
any OF the petty restraints imposed thereby.
They consummated their contract. and
have since cohaoited together as man and
wife, travelling around the county lectur-

odiousness Of the marriage law. Fate, or
fortune, brought them to Hastings, Mime

Rev. F. w. Shelton, of the Episcopal

Ole clergyman opening the house with
prayer each morning during two weeks
and each of the others performing the
same service about the same length of
time. Either because there was not so
much liberaliiy in succeeding years, or be-
cause the members did not like to take
their religion mixed, the practice died with
the session, and a regular chaplain has
since been elected.

secretary Chandler hos discovered q
fraud in the interior department which al
most renders insig lificant that committed
under the administration of Jacob Thomp-
son, the last OF the democratic secretaries
of the interior, by which eight hundred
and seventy thousand dollars of trust bonds
were distracted, and replaced by the
worthless acceptances of JohnsB. Floyd,
then secretary Of war. II appears tina,
some one Of Thompsons predecessors
withdrew one and half millions of dol
lars in cash, and replaced it with various
kinds of worthless southern bonds, such as
Tennessee turnpike company bonds-oi
which there were sixty-six thousand dol
lars-and other equally valueless "securi-
''tes. The government not only owes
this amount to the Indians but also annual
interest thereon, 60 the fraud now amounts,
in round numbers, to about six millions OF
dollars. Ole of the "reforms" we are in
vited to inaugurate by the democratic
pry is to show our contempt for sue h

Mr.. Grandey as president of the day,
made some very appropriate remarks, and
in his most eloquent style introduced Rev.
MIR. Hubbard of the Baptist church, who
read the declaration of independence. Az
ter the reading of Whittlers hymn by the
president, 1t was sung by centennial choir
Of 100 hundred singers from the different
churches of the county.
The orator of the day, Hon. f. L
Woodbridge, was then introduced by Mr..
Grandey with few impressive remarks.
MR. wooDBRIDGg's ADDRESS.
Mr.. Woodbridge commenced by tracing
the history of the liberal opinions from the
reign OF king John and EnglaDd's Magma
Charta, to the landing OF the May flower,
the history of the colonies aud the struggls
OF 49,. and rapidly sketched the history OF
Vermont, with her early heroes, paid
glowing tribute to the genius of our ins,i-
tutions, and closed a IN ,st brilliant Grafton
with the hope and tho belief that our great
ness rs people has Just begun, and thai
1t may continue until the whole world shall
be embraced under government as free
and benefcient.
Mr.. Woodbridge was repeatedly applaud
ed during his address, and at the close the
hymn "America" was sung 10 chorus with
band accompaniment.
Rev. Father Cunningham was then in-
troduced and made some very appropriate
and happy remarks.
The exercises were then closed at the
stand by the playing of Yankee Doodle by
the three bands and the benedicton.

AN IMPORTANT DIscorERY.-It seems now
to be certain that the experiments which
have been carried on by Mr.. /. l.. Bell, NJ.
p, at the instance Of the Northwestern Rail-
road Company, and which were some time
since hopefully spoken OF by the chairman
OF the company, Mr.. Leeman, for the pro-
duction OF cheap and durable iron rail, have
been singularly successful. 1t is confidently
affirmed that iron rails, more durable than
steel rails. can be produced by new process
Mt much less cost and at price but one
pound per ton in excess Of ordinary iron
rails. Considering that steel rails, when
worn out, are worth little, and that the new
rail will be worth two-thirds Of its original
value for reconversion, the long-asitated
question Of iron as. steel would seem to be
determined. The value OF this discovery to
Cleveland will be incalculable, rs the large
substitution Of steel for iron rails has been
most disastrous to the leading industry
