Mr.. Van Buren,, and IL it is not adhered to the
power Of the Federal government will become
resistless and operate the obteratiOn OF State
lines. For these reasons we favor, ultimately,
the repeal of the tax on State banks and the
| restriction Of the Federal government to
| issue of coin This proposition, however, is
not feasible now for obvious reasons.
| Upon the third point made by Mr.. Thurman,
| his argument is not less convincing. The Ma
tional banks draw interest, first on their
bonds, the basis Of their credit, from the gov
eminent, which Is paid by taxation; and sec
ondly, they loan their notes, which are the
evidences Of their debts, and draw interest on
them, which has to be taken out OF the annual
product Of the country, before that product Is
divided between labor and capital AS interest
and taxation, alike, always fails on the great
mass of consumers, the people, who are also
the producers, they are the only sufferers
| upon whom these heavy burdens fall
| Senator Thurman then goes on to discuss
the necessity for O. stable currency; the evil
of contraction and the suffering already
caused by it; the necessity for economy In
government expenses, and concludes with an
arraignment of the electoral fraud and q con-
domination of the sectional hatred by which
the Republican party has sought to
perpetuate its power. bis speech
is in all respects a mastery one, and in the
discussion OF the finances he has certainly
struck the key note of at least the next presi-
Dental campaign. What may come after it
is time enough yet to consider For the time
being, and for the purposes of the immediate
future, we are heartily with him.

respondent roached this city few days ago.
After patient and careful investigation he
is embed to report tho following, which
may bo relied upon, nothing being stated
but what there seems to be the most
perfect authority for. For several months
a capable agent has been at work in the
State Of Florida securing such evidence as
would 60 to show that tho State went for
Tilden and. was frauduen:ly counted for
Hayes. It is impossible to sny in whose
interest or by whose orders this invcstiga--
ton hos been mado. The agent has been
well supplied with funds, has accomplished
things that usually require money, has
worked Systematically, and has had n
heavy correspondence with Washington
and New York writing to evidently icti.
tious names.
1t is said On ono hand that he is In high
Democratic Employment, and by others
that he represents the anti Hayes wing.
That he is at work for some powerful and
determined organization is certain. Ho
has worked with the utmost secrecy, and
perhaps not half dozen persons outside Of
those directly Interested suspect what he
has been doing. III doclines TO say word
even in regard to matters have traced to

One thing is certain i he has succeeded In
in getting from tho managers of the count
the most complete confessions of the
frauds they committed. Enough has boon
confessed to give tho State to Tildcn by a
large majority.
MoLin, chairman Of tho returning Board,
has written an affidavit, in which ho says
that ho is now convinced he was misled in
tho count, and that tho State really went
for Tilden by 500 or 600 mojority. Ho
says NoSes, Of Ohio, offered him all sorts Of
preformont and reward if ho would only
stand up for Hayes, adding, that ho was
authorized to spoak for Hayes. MoLin
says, Influenced by this pressure, by his
strong partisan bias and by tho tremendous
stake at issue, ho was misled, and gave the
State to Hayes whom it should haVo been

nature, and 10 a. moro promise of what lie

When April willows meet the breeze
Like softcst dawn among the trees;

And meadows bloom, and bluo birds pair,
When Love first barcs her sunny head
Over the brook and lily bed;
Nothing of sound or sight to gricvo
From choiring morn to quiet ove,-
My heart will not, for all its case,
Forget the days to follow these.

From field to field, by stream and bough,

1876.
l sat alonc with my conscience
lna place where time had ceased;
And wo talked of my former living.
In tho land where tho yeors increased.
And felt 1 should have to answer
The question it put to me;
And to face the answer and question
Throughout an eternity.
The ghosts of forgotten actions
Came flouting before my sight,
And things that I thought werc dead thing
Wero alive with terrible might.
And tho vision Of all my past life,
Was an awful thing to facc-
Alone with my conscience sitting
In that solcmnly silent place.
And thought of far away warning
Of sorrow that was to be mine;
But now is the present time.
And thought of my former thinking,
Of the judgment duy to be;
But sitting alono with my conscience
Seemed Judgment enough for mo.
And I wondered if there was future
10 this lind beyond tho grave;
But no one gave mo an answer,
And no one camo to save,
Then fclt that the future was present,
And the present would ncvcr 80 bye;
For it was tho thought of my past life
Grown into an eternity.
Then I awokc from my timely dreaming,
And the vision passed away,
And knew the far away warning,
Was a warning of yesterday.
And pray may not forget it,
Iu this land before the grave;
That l may not cry in the future,
And no one como to save.
Aud so have leurnt lesson,
Which ought to havc known before;
And which though learnt it dreaming,
l hope to forget no moro.
SO | sit alone with my conscience,
In the place where the years increase;
And try to remember the future,
In the land where time will .ccaso.
And know of the future judgment,
How dreadful 80 e'cr it be;
That to sit alone with my conscience,
Will be judgment enough for me.
