Temperance people of Michigan are
beginning to learn that their cause is
not promoted by carrying it into poll
tics. and at the recent State Conven-
ton of the Good Templars the Chief
recommended that no political action
be taken by the body, since ''in adyo-
eating temperance politically we be-
come entangled with other issues, and
experience has proven the result to be
detrimental to the interest of the tenn
perance cause.

1t is true the National Democratic conven-
ton In 1876 ignored the bank question and
equivocated on resumption. But at that time
self-government was the sole and absorbing
question throughout the south, and no other
issue was considered. Had the south been
then, as she is to-day, alive to these great is
sues, the last Presidential contest would have
been made on them as well as on the restora-
ton of self-government in the south; and
Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois and Michigan
would have put the election of Democratic
candidate representing these issues beyond
the reach of returning boards. 1t is true the
Democratic leaders-not the masses-of New
York, New Jersey and New England-ex-
cept few, among whom is Sam Cox, God
bless him-have stood with the Republicans
On GneS6 questions. DuC IL Is also
true that they are a petty minority of the

bank money which has animated the Democ-

BROWNSVILLE, TENN.
Correction by One Correspondent of the
Mistakes Of AnOther-TwO Fema
Colleges that are Not Surpass-
ed by Any others in the
Country.
From Special Correspondent of the Appeal.

BROWNSVILLE, August An occasional
correspondent of the APPEAL, writing about
the teachers institute, held here, says:
During the exercises addresses were made
by DR.. Johnston, of the Baptist female semi
nary, on Language and Grammar, and
Prof. Williams, of the Methodist female semi
nary, on The Philosophy of History. The
latter was especially marked for eloquence,
research and learning. By the way, for
healthful location, admirable advantages,
and desirable home for their girls, no bet
ter place could be found than in the excellent
institution under care Of Prof. Williams. )"
We do not think that Brownsville deserves to
have her colleges written ''female seminary, ="
as though very common affairs. We suppose
the scholarship, research and learning" OF
the two professors referred to do not rest on
a basis manufactured" 'EloQuence" is
scarcely test-mark of an educational paper,
written and to be read before a convention Of
educators, where the aim Is not a flourish for
the careless masses, but to lead the thought
of thinking Observation-Disclosures. philosophy
of History" Is not the labelling of biographi
cal iDdices, ETC., but marks the gulf-streams
in the ocean of history, as all agree.
Your correspondent does not report correctly
the subject of either of these essayists The
one did not state his subject to be The Phi
losophy of History" nor did the other state
his so vaguely as Language and Grammar,
Grammar. The colleges respectively re-
ferred to were the Brownsville female co lege
and the Wesleyan female college, as per their
charters Now why did not this correspond
ent state that Prof. Binford read one of the
most thorough and charming papers on The
Excellence Of the Classical Languages as
Means of Mutual Training" as on the same
date of this communication July 9th Prof.
Binford accepted the presidency of the
Brownsville female college? Prof. Johnston
had resigned over one month before, which
had been thoroughly published in the papers.
1t was known generally that Prof. Binford
was here entertaining this place, and that he
did accept. 1t is fact that as to ali the adj
vantages of high location, large, shady
grounds and spacious buildings, the Browns
vile female collge Is the college place of this
town, and that Prof. Binford, of the Univer-
sity of Virginia, is the accomplished presi-
dent. Prof. Johnston was then booked for
another college. This is fair. The Browns
vile female colleges are most excellent insti-
tutions, and merit patronage.

CONGRESSMAN ELLIS, OF LOUISIANA, ON
THE POLITICAL SITUATION.
CINCINNATI, Nov. 25, 1873.
E. John Ellis, member of Congress
from the New Orleans district, passe
through this city to-day en- route for
Washington. In conversation with a
HERALD representative he said With
good nomination and good platform
see TO reason why we, the democracy,
should not carry the entire South, with
Ohio, Indiana, Illinois, Michigan and
Wisconsin in the next Presidential con-
test.n Mr.. Ellis favors a conservative
platform, one that will unite all the wings
of the democratic and greenback parties.
He believes that either Thurman Han
cock or Hendricks will be the next nomi-
nee of the democracy for the Presidency.
When asked which of the three he pre-
ferred he answered that that depended on
circumstances. If Grant was nominated
by the republicans he favored the taking
up of Hancock by the democracy; II the
republicans nominated civilian his
choice would be Thurman. Hendricks
he thought to be the least available OF the
three. Tilden he thinks entirely out OF
the question as a candidate. "Sam Kan
dali is his residuary legatee, and the sue
cession will be solved by the coming Con-
gress."

BEAcoNsFIFLD's sRECTIFIcATIoN OF AN
UNsCIENTIFIC FRoNTIER-MELTING
TYRANNICAL HEARTS.
Correspondence of the Baltimore Gazette.
LONDON, November 12.-On SUNDAY
morning read two documents that had
just received. One was Lord Beacons-
fields speech made at the Lord Mayor's
dinner on the previous evening-a men
acing and braggart speech, in which he
threatens vaguely with violence any and
all powers which shall moi carry out the
Berlin Treaty in the spirit and the letter
and says he is about to make war on AZ
ghanistan not because he breads any in
vasion of India, but because the north
western frontier of the Queens empire
there is "unsclentific." This speech rem
ders the ultimatum sent to the Ameer a
mere farce, since no reply or concession
he can possibly make will reclify an Gun
scientific" frontier. The other document
which read along with this was one sent
me by friend in India. 1t is the prayer
OF "heathen" Hindoo, offered in view of
of present events, and is as follows !:
"Dark clouds are gathering over the from
tier. God Almighty, hasten to our res
cue. Appalling aud sickening prepara-
tions for war have already commenced
and troops have begun to move. God
Almighty, send Thy holy spirit to those
places where our rulers are holding meet
ings and taking counsel ofeach other and
so turn their hearts that they may seek
peace and not war. Teach them to war
with their own warlike propensities and
vanquish those great enemies-anger and
ambition. Teach them and teach cap
tains and soldiers to believe that there is
grea er glory in promoting peace than IN
causing bloodshed and desolation and
death. Lord. may peace descend once
more on this ill-fated land.'
This is the prayer of so-called heath
en-. AS write many missionaries of the
Prince of Peace.CD are trying to convert
him and his -worshipers to the re-
ligion of that Cross which they see on the
the British flag as it floats over troops
marching to slay their Afghan brothers.
While native Hindoos are offering 10
Heaven prayers for peace the English in
India, missionaries included, are crying
for blood and the telegraph is laying be-
fore them Lord Beaconsfield's PROPOSE
ton to fence a scientific frontier with Af-
CHAN skeletons. Christianity means for
India a holocaust of human sacrifices to
the god Terminus. And yet there are
millions In England who are giving their
hard-earned money for those missions in
pious faith that India can be christianized.
All the missionaries of the world concen-
trated could not do as much for Chris
tianity in India in century as the Pre-
infer of England and the Viceroy are
likely to do in its dishonor during the
| next few months.

A CoNGREssMAN's ANSWER TO A
SERIOUS CHARGE.-The Hon. Hezekiah
B. Smith, democratic and greenback
Congressman elect from the second dis
trict of New Jersey, emphatically denies
the report, which first appeared in the
Springfield (Mass.) Republican, and has
been extensively copied, in which he is
charged with being the husband of two
living wives. Mr.. Smith confessed to
some youthful indiscretions" whilst a
young man residing at Woodstock, Vt,
but ridicules the idea that he was ever
inveigled into either a genuine or mock
marriage with any woman there. Mr.
Smith thinks the story was prompted by
disappointed politicians in Burlington,
N. j., and he inhmates a purpose to in
stitutc libel suit.

THE RESIDENCE OF BISHOP HOWE. In
READING, PLUNDERED.
READING, November 25.-The elegant
mansion of Rev. DR.. NJ. A. DeWolfe
Howe, Episcopal Bishop of the Diocese
Of Central Pennsylvania, was entered by
thieves early this morning and plunder-
ed. The Bishop resides on Centre ave-
nue., in the northern section of the city,
where the houses are separated by wide
lots. The thieves gained an entrance by
forcing their way through the north bay
window of the parlor and then opened
the back and front doors. Nearly all
parts of the house were visited, and the
thieves, hearing noise in one of the bed
chambers, locked the occupants in aud
turned the key on the outside. The
thieves then proceeded to the closets and
and pantry and had feast. A demi John
OF wine was emptled during their feast
in the parlor. Several hundred dollars
werih of valuables, including silverware
and clothing, were carried off. The
Bishop was not at home and the robbery
was not discovered until this morning.
