Apples Of Gold.

The following timely words were spoken
by Vice-President Wheeler at the recent St.
Lawrence County Fair, held at Canton, n. Y.
They are worthy of being inscribed on the
door-posts of every hamlet in the land. He
said al sincerely believe that there is not
a spot in this wide land to-day so free from
the wild notions which are now rocking the
foundations of society and business as this
county of st. Lawrence. The nihilism of
Russia, tine socialism of Germany and the
communism which has no geographical
limits, and all their attendant fallacies, have
never taken, and can never take, root here
The stability of the country is safe in the
intelligence of the farmer and thinking men
OF the land. 1t is with such people,
welded to the soil, knowing the value of
home, and with capacity to understand
the great problems which now, as in all
ages of all governments, threaten the Sc
curity of society, that the welfare of the
people rests" As to financial matters he
said "My friends, we have a great many

cial ills under which the country suffers

The Massachusetts, Republicans.

The regular Republican Convention of
Wednesday of last week, and was a more
than ordinarily well behaved and intelligent
meeting. presenting a sufficiently striking
contrast to the pow-wow of Tuesday, at the
same place. The nomination of Talbot for
Governor was foregone conclusion, and
there was not very lively contest for the
second place on the ticket. The resolutions
adopted SAVIOR strongly of reform and are
straightforward and vigorous. They declare
for sound currency, take up sundry state is
sues on the side of economy, have good word
for civil-service REFORM and as to the Ad-
mstration, declare "That the Republi-
cans Of Massachusetts will keep all their

THE WAY OF IT.-General Butler last
week succeeded in his plans to capture the
democratic party of Massachusetts, by get
ting control of its state convention. The
democratic state committee, outmaneuvered
and beaten, but unconquered, retired from
the field OF battle with the old leaders of the
party, and are determined to continue the
fight from another position. The Butler
democrats claim to have held the regular
state convention and nominated the regular
party candidates while the state committee
denounce their proceedings as irregular, vio-
lent and high-handed to an extreme degree.
No doubt the Butler men had majority of
the delegates; but the charge brought
against their proceedings cannot be denied.
They broke into Mechanics Hall before day
light and kept possession of it until their
nominations were made. In this way the
control of the hall, hired for the state COM
mittee, was wrested from them by violence,
and given over to the leaders of the Butler
faction. These proceedings were eminently
Butlerian, and it will be remembered that
some days ago, General Butler publicly an.
nounced himself as their commander-in.
chief and the defender OF their rights. This
was his method of doing it, and doubtless
harmonized exactly with his ideas of the
fitness of things.

STRANGER THAN FIonoN.-From the
Boston Adveriser we get the late history of
Laura Bridgman, whose sad case excited
such universal interest more than forty years
ago. 1t will be remembered that she was
deaf, dumb and blind, and that, while lit
tie girl, DIR. Howe took her to the institu-
ton for the blind in Boston. She was
then about eight years old, and her senses
Of taste and smell were so dull that she prac-
tically possessed but one sense, that of touch.
Her parents were good, intelligent people,
and the little Laura was a bright and fully
endowed child, but when she was two wears
old scarlet fever deprived her of sight, hear
ing, taste and smell of course she became
dumb also. Her mind was not impaired,
and, in spite of all obstacles, her devoted
and affectionate mother had succeeded in
communicating with her by the simplest
signs, and in teaching her to sew, knit and
braid. At this stage she came to DR.. Howe,
and her education became matter of scien.
tific interest all over the civilized world.
Miss Bridgman is now woman of nearly
fifty, with good general education, includ-
ing many advanced studies; she writes well,
aud has great mental and moral resources
she communicates freely with friends and
enjoys happy social life, and, moreover, she
is expert in the use of her needle and in many
domestic duties Through the one sense of
touch, her spiritual nature, her moral sense
and intellect have been tremendously devel-
oped, and the little child whom fate seemed
to have shut out from her kind and ordained
to darkness and ignorance has grown into "A
useful and loving woman, pure and holy in
her life and thoughts. 1t seems like mir
acle and it is story without parallel

ANOTHER TRIUMPH.-A locomotive ca.
pable of drawing one hundred loaded cars
will leave Philadelphia for Australia Octo-
Der list. Heretofore English manufacturers
have had an exclusive control of the locomo.
tive trade in the colonies of Great Britain.
But at the Centennial Exhibition one of the
Australian commissioners was deeply i'm.
pressed with the merits of American loco
motives, and through his agency permission
was obtained for Philadelphia firm to
send an engine to that country, with the
promise that it would be allowed TO run over
the railroads on its own merits. The gov.
eminent, which in that country has control
of the roads, was astonished at the result OF
tial trip, purchased the engine at once
and gave an order for another of the same
kind, and two heavy ones for freight pur.
poses. The three will all go to Australia
October LIST, and one of the freight engines
is believed to be the largest engine even
built. 1t weighs, exclusive of tender, one
hundred and two thousand pounds, and has
drawn one hundred and sixty empty cars,
making a train one mile long, and is war
ranted to draw from ninety to one hundred
freight cars when loaded

JAPANESE LoAN.--The Japanese have
taken another stride in the path of Western
civilization by successfully floating their
first domestic loan, to the amount of sl2,
100000, which was done after the manner
of Christian governments and people who
are anxious to raise the wind on large
scale. At the outset, the British capitalists
and bankers, who have heretofore attended
to these financial matters for the japanese
secuted the idea of the home government
being able to effect the loan, and predicted
for the attempt ridiculous failure. But il
turned out to be full success. We can only
hope that the peculiar manner of treating
public debts which is in favor in some coun
tries where borrowing is an old story will
not be adopted by the Japs.

ENGLAND AND AMERIcA.-The London
Pal Mail Gazette says; "Our home secre-
tary has calculated that we shall acquire
some l3,0O0,000 quarters of wheat from
foreign counties this year to supplement
the deficiency in our home production. This
seems likely now to be an underestimate
But taking even those figures, the outlook,
in face of falling export trade, and gen.
eral depression in every branch of business
is grave enough. AT the current market
price such an import of wheat will GER ainly
not represent less than e30,000,000. Thus
for one article Of food alone we shall be pay
ing at the rate OF nearly IL per head of the
population to foreign growers, No doubt
we obtain the supply far cheaper than if we
attempted to grow it at home, even if so
large an amount could be probably grown at
all on these islands. But it is certainly a
serious matter for us that our principal
sources of supply-America and Russia
should show an increasing disinclnaton to
be paid for their food in our manufactures.
The protectionist policy which has almost
destroyed our iron and cotton trade with the
United States has no doubt been disadvan-
tageous to that country, but it most Ger.
tainly has also been damaging to us. We
have now to pay for our food import from
America out OF profits made in other direc
tons, instead of by the interchange of pro
duction."

Ex-PREsIDENT GRANr.-General Grant
writes to an old army friend In the fall
we expect to visit Spain and Portugal, and
then settle down for the winter at some
pleasant place, probably in the South of
Italy. In the spring shall go back to the
United States and settle down for life

trip abroad has been exceedingly pleasant.
As yet not single unpleasant incident has
occurred. In every place, in every nation,
and by all classes of society, from rulers to
the working people, the greatest civility has
been shown me, and the profoundest respect
expressed for our country and countrymen.

Endorsing the Administration.


There are unmistakable indications that
the Republican party, especially in the New
England states is seeking to promote better
relations with the administration than here
tofore. Doubtless the unexpected warning
of the Maine election, with the mixed con-
dition of things in Massachusetts, and else
where, has caused some of those stilted de-
famers of President Hayes to put on their
thinking caps; notably Messrs. Blaine and
Conkling. The truth is the mass of the
Republican party-some of the disgruntled
leaders to the contrary notwithstanding
have ever had the fullest confidence in the
integrity and general policy OF the admins
tration, and the standing and prospects of
the party throughout the country to-day
would have been infinitely better but for the
studied efforts of these would-be leaders to
embarrass President Hayes and prevent his
policy being successfully carried out. We
are glad of any signs of repentance and
reformation, and can only hope that they
have not come too late.
The New Hampshire Republicans, in state
convention assembled, adopted this excellent
resolution:
" Resotred That we will give to the present ad-
ministration our cordial support in all just meas
ures tending to purify and elevate the public SER
vice, to secure and perpetuate interstate amity
and confidence, to guard and maintain the poti-
cal rights of individuals and classes, to preserve
the plighted faith and to perpetuate the honor
and prosperity Of the nation; and we heartily
commend that management of the finances under
which the last fragment of the premium on gold
is disappearing, the borrowing rate steadily d.
minishing and the long depression in business
and industry vanishing before a sure return Of
confidence and industry"
And this from the Massachusetts State
Convention
"The Republicans of Massachusetts, will keep
all their pledges, and will stand by the President
of the uuited States in his efforts to keep his.
We cordially commend the purposes and integrity
of his administration; his frmness in resisting, to
the limit of his constitutional power, all attempts
TO depreciate the currency, or to violate the
plighted faith of the nation, and his constant en-
deavors to promote the restoration of good will,
and Of social and commercial intercourse between
the citizens of all parts of the country"
We cant help adding the reflection that,
were the Republicans of Maine now to hold
state convention, they would hardly follow
the suggestion of Mr. Blaine, and utterly
ignore the administration.

WORD FROM SENATOR BAYARD.-We do
not know of any democratic statesmen in
public position whose words are better en-
titled to consideration than those of Senator
Bayard, of Delaware. He is a clear-headed
man who was on the loyal side when the
country was in imminent peril. On the oft
repeated charge of the greenbackers that
Republican contraction has caused the hard
times, he said on the Goth ult., in speech
at home, that, $50 far from the fund for
circulation having been essened since the
passage OF the resumption act, it has actually
been increased" He then showed, for in
stance, that at the close of the year 1874
our greenback national bank notes and coin
amounted to 1905, 465,0S5 while on the first
day of May in this year the amount of the
same items was 1926, s25,03l, or a gain of
over twenty millions. Mr.. Bayard then
says, " | am amazed when hear the cry
that contraction in the volume of the cur.
rency is the cause of our present business
depression, because there has been no such
contraction | cannot understand now men
can so mislead themselves"

EUGENE HALE thinks the greenback
craze in Maine is the result of the hard times
communism, hasty action on the part of the
farmers who voted the ticket, and general
want of knowledge of financial topics among
the people. He thinks similar causes are at
work in other New England states, which
will manifest themselves on election day
He makes the noticeable observation. a.
showing the ephemeral character of the
movement, that the greenbackers are strong
est this year where they were weakest last
year. Twelve months seems about the
length of time requisite to exhaust all there
is of it, according to Mr.. Hale's view of the
work in Maine.

Genuine BenevOlence.


The Howard Association, of which so
much is heard at present in connection with
the relief work in the fever.strcken cities
of the South, dates from the terrible cpl
demic of 1853 in New Orleans. 1t is said
to have originated among the clerks of a
merchant in that city, who devoted them
selves to the care of the sick when fright
had so far severed the ties of humanity that
other. Rich young men soon joined the
first small band of devotees and adopted as
the name of their society that of the cele-
brated English prison philanthropist At
every appearance of the pestilence they met
it, as they had mutually bound themselves
to do, with physicians, nurses and medi-
cines, establishing agencies in all infected
places, and before the breaking out of the
rebellion had become body strong in num-
bers and in means. The war impoverished
the society through its members, and since
then it has been forced to accept contribu-
tons from without, although it was not
obliged to do so before. The Memphis As
ISOLATION was organized in September, 1867,
with twenty-five members, and had under
its charge in that year two hundred and
forty.four patients, receiving in contribI-
tions S4,99G.56. It afterward secured a
charter from the legislature aud began its
work in the great pestilence of 1873, in the
month of September, with eight members,
and one hundred and thirty dollars in the
treasury. A meeting of citizens furnished
it with means by immediate collections and
by calls upon other cities and states, and it
went on in its work with a full treasury.
When this work became too great for the
few members of the society to do, a call was
made upon the citizens for more members,
and was promptly responded to. A hospital
was established, and nurses and supplies
were furnished to more than eight thousand
persons. Eight hundred and twenty-five
nurses were employed by the society. After
paying out in this way nearly one hundred
thousand dollars the association had remain.
ing in its treasury more than forty thousand
dollars. the entire amount of the country's
contributions during that year to the dis
tress of Memphis having been over one hun.
dred and thirty-four thousand dollars.
