Iona States Platform, and have de-
serted it and those who stand
upon it.
When we called upon them in a
kindly spirit to come back, thev
pointed over their shoulder at us
and sWOre by the beard of the
Prophet that we were in the pay of
the Republican party!
When we reminded them of the
time when they stood knee and
shoulder at our side, they lifted I'D
the whites Of their eyes and swore
by Allah himself that the Demo
cratic party had fought, bled and
kerhummiXed in behalf of the
NeightiOn, the Phlag and the illus
trious children of Africa!
When we produced proof of their
sympathy with Secession and their
opposition to the war and its re-
suits, they forthwith forged a letter
and began to manufacture big, raw
lies in order to weaken the force and
influence of our utterancesI !
But this isn't all!
While they were swearing by all
the profane gods in the calendar that
State sovereignty was dead, damned

ton" to death if it didn't surrender

ssA Born AristOcrat. ,,

Mr.. F. G. Whitley, President of the
Eagle Machine works, and Cashier
Of the Fairfield county Bank, at
Lancaster, Tom Ewing's home, thus,
to a Commercial interviewer, voices
his estimate, based on long intimate
persOnalknowledge and observation,
of Tom as a friend, par excellence,
Of the laboring man:
''Itis the greatest and most ridi-
culOus farce in the world, the ap-
pearance Of Tom Ewing in the role
of the WOrkingman's friend, the pat
ron and friend of the laborer, &c.
Why, Tom Ewing is a born aristo-
crat-clOthed in fine linen, proud Of
his blood, proud of his birth, proud
of his white hands, Of his high rela-
tiOnships, and of his fathers fame.
He drinks the choicest wines, and
lives on the dainties of the land.
He the working mems friend, in
deed! Bah! IF the honest labor
ing men can be taken in by such q
transparent dodge as that, they de-
serve to have Tom Ewing for Gov
ernOr. He is a friend Of the poor
man till he can get the poor mans
vote"

HiekenIooper,s First Baltic.

It will be remembered that on
the morning of the 9Th of April,
1862, General Prentiss commanded
one, and General Sherman the other
division occupying the advance line
ct Pittsburg Landing. On the pre-
ceding day Hickenlooper was or
dered to report withrhis battery to
Gen. Prentiss, and with it, early on
the following morning, opened the
battle of Shiloh, during which, after
holding out nearly all day against
fearful odds, Gen. Prentiss and a
considerable portion Of his command
were taken prisoners.
Hickenloopers battery, at this
critical moment, received support
from a portion of Gen. Sherman's
command and escaped capture.
From that day to this-over seven
teen years-the soldier and com
mander have never met, and the fol-
lowing letter, therefore, becomes a
pleasant reminder of "the acquain-
tance of a day" long to be remem p
bered:
KIREsvLLE, Mo, July q, 1879.
General HickenlOOper:
SRI address this letter to you
for information, you being a candi-
date for Lieutenant Governor.
Please inform me at once if you are
the same Hiekenlooper that com
manded a battery at Shiloh and rem
dered the efficient aid 70 me in hold
ing the rebels in check in Saturdays
fight.
My reason for seeking this infor-
nation is, that if you are the man I
shall take great pleasure in doing
what I can to help you; and if it
were not for being in i'll health,
would proceed to Ohio and give at
least one months service in behalf
of one I have always remembered
since the 9Th of April, 1862, as a
most gallant and brave and efficient
officer, all of which applies to the
HickenloOper that I knew so well on
that day. Truly yours,
NJ. B. PRENTIss,
Late Major General Volunteers.

WHOLE NO. 2255.
Profit Upon the Circulation Of fbe
National Ranks

Profit Upon the Circulation Of the
National Banks.
Tne Comptroller Of the Currency
has made a statement which shows
that the whole amount Of interest
received by the National banks upon
bonds deposited as security for cir
eulation was, on July 1, S16,9I2. .736
Ii from this amount be deducted ten
per cent (s1,691, ,273), which is tbs
interest upon that portion of the
bonds on which the bank receive No
circulation, and also the one Der
cent. tax on circulation (s3, ,I88 2g8.
or a total of S4,879,564), there will
remain S12,O38,172, which is the NET
amount Of interest received bv the
banks upon 90per cent. Of the bonds
deposited as security for their eiren-
lating notes. The National banks
now hold about S2O,OOO,OOO of ten
forty bonds. If these are converted
into 4 per cents. the amount Of infer
est received by the banks on the 1st
of August viii be SII,776.2O7. F
all Of the bonds held by the Nation
al banks are converted into 4 Der
cents, and the same deductions made
as before, the net amount Of interest
received by the National backs upon
the 80 per cent. of bonds rnon
which circulation issued. will ba
S9,564875. -
If the present capital of the Ma
tional banks was loaned upon bonds
and mortgages at eight per cent. it
would yield S29, 1926 ,O51 interest an
nually. The net income derived BY
the National banks from United
States bonds, if bearing interest at
four per cent, and from the loan Of
the amount Of circulation issued up
on these bonds at eight per cent,
amounts to S36,412,618, which leaves
a difference of S6,52O,567 as the
profit Of National banks upon eireu-
latiOn, based upon four per cent.
bonds, which is equal to one and sew
enty-fOur One-hundredths per cent
on the capital invested.
Under similar circumstances the
profit upon circulation to the Ma
tional banks in localities where the
rate Of interest is sizper cent. would
be about two per cent. more than If
their entire capital was directly loan
ed at six per cent. upon bonds and
mortgages.
The Comptroller has also made a
statement, showing that the Nation
al banks now in existence are entitled
TO receive upon their present cap
ital, under section 5,1T1 Of the Re
vised Statutes, S389,372, ,916 Of cir
culating notes. The total amount
issued is S313,O45,346. The Ma
tiOnal banks already organized and
in operation are therefore entitled to
receive upon the deposit Of the nee
essary amount of United States
bonds, S76,327, $40 of additional cir
culatiOn. In other words, they can
increase their circulation one-ffth if
at any time they are in want Of the
additional amount, or if any profit
can be made by an additional issue.

COkDAY's UNHAPPY DAUGHTERs.-Ihe.
Youngest daughter of the lawyer who de-.
tended Charlotte COrday, in 1913, died
recently in a garret in Darmstadt in ab-

lssassinated Marat, none Of the Paris
lawyers dared to defend her, but Mr.,

to plead her cause, and did so with great
ability. His courageous act, however,

YaledictOTy.

With this issue we close our con-
neotion with the Teachers Column,
but it is with no feeling that it has
been a failure. For nearly eight
months we have done what we could
to make the column interesting, and
at the same time to do the greatest
possible good to the cause. We
have no apology to offer for the
manner in which we have conducted
the column; some things have been
inserted, which, probably, it would
have been better to have omitted,
but we feel that, under the eircum-
stances, we would do the same, or
worse, again, and so we let it pass.
We are not ashamed of anything
we have advocated. We may have
used stronger language than our
own belief would warrant, but our
object was to call out the opposition.
We regret that the teachers of the
county have not taken a more active
part in this matter. It seems as
though We have more respect for an
honest opposer, than for a friend
who will not assist, and we wish to
make one final appeal to teachers on
this point. We hold it to be little
honor to float into greatness with
the tide; Of course it is by no means
probable that such a course would
lead to greatness; but if it should,
we can think of nothing more con-
temptible than a man who will re-
press his individuality and all his
higher nature, that he may drift to
places Of profit. Paul, I know, said
something about being "all things
to all men," but every one knows
that Paul never hgsitated to speak
his mind.
In matters Of speech and dress
you may, and should, strive to be
like the people among whom your
lot is cast, but in matters of thought
and conscience, there is no call to
compromise yourself Lowell says:
"They enslave their children's children,
Who make compromise with sin"
Nothing great or good can come
Of cringing to a higher power, so,
be yourselves, in thought as well as
in speech. Profit by the experience
Of others, but not blindly. "What
is one mans food is another mans
poison" ;" so, the experience of others
must be adjusted to your own inner
ere you can be sure
it is what you want.
Finally, brethren, farewell. The
teachers of Highland county shall
always have a place in our heart, not
less broad on account of the rela-
ton which we have sustained to
them for the past eight months.
We know not what fate awaits
the Column, but are not responsible
for it. We have done what we could,
and we trust it to you, hoping that
it may prosper, and "its last days be
better than its first days" D.B. ..
