A Remarkaple Temperance Man.


Many years ago Gil mel Lehman
ousky who had been twenty-three
years the army of Napoleon Bon
sparte, arose 10 temper nee meet
ing, tall, vigorous. with the glow of
health on bis tace, and made the
following remarkable speech.
you see before you a man sew
enty years old have fought two
hundred battles; have fourteen
wounds on my body; have lived
thirty days on horse flesh with the
bark of trees tor bread, snow and
ice for my drink, the canopy of
heaven for my covering, without
stockings or SHOES on my feet, and
only few rags on for clothing.
In he desert of Egypt l have
marched Tor days nth a burning
sun upon my naked head; feet Bills
tered 10 tho scorching sand and
with eyes, Lostrils aud mouth flied
with dust and with a thirst SO tor
menting that / have opened the
veins of my arms and sucked my
own blood. Do you asked how l
survived all these horrors? l an-
swer that under the providence of
God | owe my preservation, my
health end vigor to this fact, that
| never drank drop of spirituous
liquor ia my life; and continued
he, "Barron Larry, chief surgeonof
the French Army, has stated, as a
fact, that the six thousand survivors
who safely returned from Egypt
Were all of them men who abstained
from ardent drinks"

gambler when he holds neither ace,
face nor trump. and when luck runs
"agin, him. The New Constitution
party has proved a godsend to the
.chiv.n 1t gives him one last chance
before he turns in his chips to the old
croupier, whose rake aud skeleton
hand he sees now reaching out for
him. The "chivs' are all old. Their
boys are not "chivs." In fact, the
last "chiv" is born; the race is run
ming out, thank God Now, about
the Tenth Ward Club, and, here and
now, we distinctly disavow any in
tention to reflect upon the high-toned
Southern gentlemen who are so anx-
ious to bring about great political
reformation under the leadership OF
the Honorable David S. Terry, and
the Honorable Volney E. Howard,
and the other honorable bilks," who
have with such honorable condescen
sion, kindly volunteered to amend
our laws and purify our Republican
party. The Hon. John G. Burch was
made temporary chairman; the Hon.
III. E. Mcbride was made temporary
secretary. On motion OF the Hon.
Thomas Talbert-the Hon. III. p.
Irving, the Hon. G. w. Bryant, the
Hon. Matt. Clarken, the Hon. Thorn
as ii. Talbert and the Hon. A. q.
Bradford were appointed commit
tee on permanent organization. The
Hon. Thomas A. Stombs was made
permanent President. The Hon. w.
B. Norman, of Calaveras, addressed
the meeting. These are not "chivs,'
but a set of most dignified and mos,
highly respectable old fossils, who
are ever on the lookout for some
chance at Office. They will mistake
the trump of the Archangel Gabriel
when it toots its final summons to
resurrection as a call for them to
wake up and take something in the
way of political place, and they will
march up to the eternal throne with
their crooked head canes in conf
dence that some new Constitution
has been ordained for their benefit.
If they should be checked by Saint
Peter they would think him some in.
formally insolent Yankee who "didn'i
know 'em," and it would be uncom-
Portable for st. Peter. If they should
get in upon the golden pavement
they would go for it. If they were
asked to chant anthems to the Lamb
they would begin by giving cheers
for General Jackson, and end up by
singing "Away down South in Dixie. J
And yet there are some idiot born
Northern donkeys who are willing tc
follow the call of this old rebel resur
rection, for at this Tenth Ward meet.
ing it is recorded by the Chronicle
that s'thc Hon. John Lord Love
dwelt at length on the policy pur
sued by the Central Pacific Railroad
magnates." II John Lord Love
would dwell at length upon his owr
ears he would never exhaust the sub

APPEALS IN ANOTHER MESSAGE TO
CONGRESS TO SUSTAIN THE GOVERN.
MENT
The following is the text of the
message
To TIE Senate and House of Representatives:
The bill making appropriations for
the payment of the fees of the United
States Marshals and their general
deputies, which l have this day re-
turned to the House OF Representa-
tives, in which it originated with my
objections, having on its reconsidera-
ton failed to become law, | re-
specially call your attention to the
immediate necessity of making some
adequate provision for the due and
efficient execution by the Marshals
and Deputy Marshals of the United
States, of the constant and important
duties enjoined upon them by the ex-
isting laws. The appropriations to
provide for the performances of these
indispensable duties expire to day.
Under the laws prohibiting public Of
ficers from involving the government
in contract liabilities beyond the
actual appropriation. it is apparent
that the means at the disposal of the
Executive Department for executing
the laws through the regular ministe-
rial officers will after to-day be left
inadequate. The suspension of the
necessary functions In the ordinary
administrations of the first duties OF
the Government for the shortest
period is inconsistent with the public
interest, and at any momenr may
prove inconsistent with the public
safety. 1t is impossible for me to
look without grave concern on the
state of things which leaves the pub.
lie service thus unprovided for and
the public interest thus unprotected,
and / earnestly urge on your atten-
ton the necessity of making an i'm.
mediate appropriation FOR the main
tenance of the services of the Mar
shals and Deputy Marshals for the
fiscal year which commences to.mor-
row. ISigned r. B. HAYES.
June 80, 1879.
Grant County herald. [volume] (Lancaster, Wis.) 1850-1968, 1879-07-03

therefore failed to become law. In
order to secure its enactment the
same measure is again presented for
my approval, coupled in the bill be-
fore me with appropriations for the
support of the marshals aud their
deputies for the next fiscal year.
WHAT Is SOUGHT BY THE DEMOCRACY.
The object manifestly is to place
before tie Executive this alternative:
Either to allow the necessary func-
tons of the public service to be Grip
pied or suspended for want of the ap-
preparations required to keep them
in operation or to approve legislation
which, in official communications to
Congress, he has declared would be
violation of his constitutional duty.
Thus in this bill the principle is clear.
ly embodied that by virtue of the
provision of the constitution which
requires that all bills for raising reye-
nue. should originate in the House of
Representatives, bare majority of
the House OF Representatives has the
right to withhold an appropriation
for the purpose of the Government
unless the Executive consents to APP
prove any such Legislation which may
be attached to appropriation bills. |
respectfully refer to the communica-
tions on this subject which | have
sent to Congress during its present
session for statement of the grounds
of my conclusions, and desire here
merely to repeat that in my .judg-
ment to establish the principle of this
bill is to make a radical, dangerous
and unconstitutional change in the
character of our institutions.
