Mr.. Thomson Rises to Explain.

Iii thomson
To the Editor of the Globe.
Would you kindly allow me the use of
your columns to set myself right before the
public in the matter of my charges against
John G. Donnelly.
The majority of the select committee of
the board of education to whom was referred
the investigation of the charges seem to
have used studied effort to place me in a
false light before the public.
In the report am Indirectly censured by
the committee with making public what
they claim was confidential conversation.
The facts are, that Mr.. Donnelly came to
my store unasked, and used language that
was distasteful to me and my family. 1
have not been in the habit of discussing the
character of inspectors with teachers, and
did not consider myself under any obligation
to keep the matter secret.
Inever suggested to Mr.. Donnelly that he
should call on DR.. Hagan and apologize,
and DR.. Hagan stated before the
committee that if he had known that
such language was used he would not have
forgiven MI. Donnelly.
In regard to the second charge, claim
that Mr.. Donnelly's school was neglected as
the substitute he had procured had not
passed a satisfactory examination, and the
mild censure is considered by many as tanta-
mount to an approval of his action in cleo
pioneering during school hours.
would suggest to the board of education
| to close the schools on election day for the
future, and give teachers a chance to work
at the polls for their favorite candidate.
! Yours, &C., JOHN THOMSON.

TOLTlIRE.

D'lring the past week certain enthusiastic
Frenchmen in Paris saw fit to arrange pop
ular celebration of the anniversary of the
day on which the great Voltaire died. It
was curiously malapropos idea that sug
gested the celebration of Voltaire's death
day. Usually, in modern times, people re-
joice over the birthday of a great man instead
of making holiday over his grave. The
persons, however, who conducted the Voltaire
celebration on Thursday last were actuated
by an independent principle. They we're op-
posed to Christianity in every shape and
form, and their manner of doing honor to
Voltaire was almost revolving to modern
ideas of civilization, Notwithstanding that
that great master of humanizing ideas,
Victor Hugo, was the orator and most salient
parsonage of the occasion.
To oppose and, as was intended, to
counteract the great atheistical demonstra-
ton in memory of Voltaire, the Catholic
clergy of Paris ordered and held what was
called an expiatory service at the cathedral
of Notre Dame. The telegraph tells us that
nearly all the persons who attended this ex-
piatory service were women. It is very
unfortunate fact that the Catholic clergy of
France have seen fit to thus recognize re-
ligious, or rather irreigious, trait in the
Voltaire performances of last week. If left
to themselves the people who crowned Vol

taire's bust with laurels and marched around
it with bands playing in front Of them would
have made very little noise in the world.
The truth is that very few of the people
who talk about Voltaire, either to laud him
to the skies, or to condemn him to the Al
mighty's worst condemnation, understand
any thing of his real motives, characteristics,
or history.
Voltaire was unquestionably what is called
an immoral man; but he could not have been
otherwise with his training, or rather want
of training. As man, however, who loved
the human race with an almost unknown in
tensity he was without parallel in his own
time. He was brutal on occasions; could be
almost fendish in the directness with which
he told the truth; but he had none the less a
magnifcently lucid perception of what man
owes to man. He could crawl before Fred
erick the Great, or, if the humor took him,
could rebel against that autocrat with a
sublime impotence. But he never forgot
that he was a man. With him his own per-
sonal actions were separated altogether from
the great teachings which he uttered, and
which all wise people will study until the
art of printing shall become one of the lost
arts of which the future Wendell Phillips
will tell. What matters it that the man Was
feeble? His teachings were, as Goethe said,
those of the greatest literary man who ever
lived; those of the most astonishing creation
of the Author of Nature If we were to pick
and choose between mems writings and
their acts, where would be the greatest teach
ers of the Christian principle?
But, above all, if there were nothing else
to entitle Voltaire to an enduring shrine as
one of the great apostles of human liberty
and consequently of human advancement
towards Christian civilization, there is
one immortal sentence of hif
that should make every freeman
acknowledged his prescience. :'The right
he said, 'to speak and print his thoughts is
':the right of every free man, whereof hi
'scannot be bereft without the exercise of {
':most odious tyranny. To maintain tht
"iberty of the press is the basis of all othe:
CELEBRITIES, since by it alone the rest ar
'sascertained and made secure
It is right and proper that celebration
should be held in honor of man who coult
| write such an enduring sentence. It is
pity that there should be conflict between
such gxeat man and those who are tn
servants o. the church.

fuence of the SUNDAY GLOBE, our clergymen
should put forth their best efforts to widen
its field and increase its opportunities. It
is far better that people should spend the
Sabbath day in reading highly moral
newspaper, than sit supinely all day long,
their minds prey to silly or vicious
thoughts which the evil one is always ready
to instil in young and old alike. In its So
icitude for the elevation of the masses, the
SUNDAY GLOBE gladly welcomes the clergy to
its aid, but entreats them not to make of the

AN English protectorate over Asiatic Tur-

Times, and it is not improbable that it will
be urged before the congress of nations. If
Russia really has her eye, as is claimed upon
the British East Indies, the introduction of
such scheme will be apt to produce an i'm

protectorate would form an insurmount-

ALABAMA DEMOCRACY.

Ringing Arrangement of the Radical Party
and Declaration of Poljcy--The Public
Credit to be Preserved Inviolate.
MONTGOMERY, Ala, May 31.-The Democratic
convention adjourned sine die last evening.
The following is the platform:
The Democratic Conservative people of Ala
bama in convention assembled reasserting the
principles adopted in our convention Of 1876,
do resolve and declare That the Democratic
and Conservative party Of law and order is the
only party of the constitution, and
to its patriotic and unceasing efforts,
under the blessings Of God, is due
the final defeat of the radical leaders in their
wicked designs, manifested from the inception
Of reconstruction, to destroy the peace, hap
piness and prosperity of both races in the
South by involving them in ceaseless turmoil
and collision.
That the financial distress, exte nding in many
localities to misery and want, is the necessary
outgrowth of the prohigate expenditures, fraud
ulent practices and class legislation which has
marked the course of the Republican party.
That by creating new and useless officers and
endowing those already created with princely
perquisites inconsistent with the simplicity
they have organized an army of
officials now attaining strength which
Daniel Webster warned us forty years ago
would endanger the liberties of our people,
and we denounce the methods, the measures
and men who are responsible for them as un.
worthy the support Of an honest and free
people.
We congratulate the whole people Of Alabama
upon the reign Of good will and reconciliation
the sense of liberty and security which pervade
the entire limits of the State, and while we re
new pledges Of protection to all colored people
we recognize and hold essential that, without
abridging the rights of any class, these
alone be maintained by union Of the grea
governing race, the white people of the land
That it is the purpose of the Democratic ane
Conservative party Of this State to preserve in
violate its obligations to the people and to tn
bona fide creditors of the State.

The redistricting of Ohio has made some
decided changes in the political complexion
of things in that State. Portage county, for
instance, was for years the home of Garfield,
and belonged to a district which was so over
whelmingly Republican that nomination
was equivalent to an election. Garfield,
luckily for him, changed his residence to
Lake county year or SO ago, while his old
county is sent to join Stark, Wayne and
Ashland three Democratic counties. The
district is moderately Democratic and
with good management is sure
to be overwhelmingly SO. With
bad management the Democrats may lose
even the vantage ground which the district
ing has give them. There have been num-
Der of names suggested to carry the Demo
cratic standard in this, to be closely con-
tested district, and among them we notice
the name of NJ. Stuart, ESQ.,, of Portage
county. The GLOBE ventures to suggest that
such nomination would be long stride
towards success. Mr.. Stuart is
the Oldest member of the bar in
that county and one of the ablest lawyers
in the entire district. He has been con-
slant and persistent Democrat from his early
manhood to the present time. AS Portage
county is the portion of the district contain
ing the Republican strength it is important
that the Democrats nominate man who
can divide that; strength and Stuart is just
the man to accomplish this. The writer
having been native Of Portage county and
somewhat familiar with the entire district,
volunteers this advice, not from any desire
to advance Mr.. Stuart's interests but for the
good of the cause and with the hope that
the Sixteenth Ohio district may have first
class Democratic representative in the next
Congress.
