Detroit Regatta.

DETROIT, August 27.-The two davs
open-to-all regatta, under the auspices
ol the Detroit River Navy, began to-day,
The attendance was very large and the
water excellent.
The first race was for junior single
sculls, which was won by Harry Ball, Of
the Zephyrs, of Detroit. Time l1:25.
Darlington, OF the Farraguts, OF Chicago,
was second.
The second race was for junior double
sculs, and was won by the Monahan
Brothers, OF the Olympics OF Albany.
Time l4:3S.
The third race was pair-oared, and the
Gorham Brothers, OF the Olympics, won.
Time 1880.
All the above races were one mile and
return.
The last race was a mile and half
straight away, four cared, and the most
exciting OF the day. The contestants
were the ShoeWaecaemettes OF Mon
roe. the Excelsiors and Michigans of De-
troit, and. the Wyandottes OF Wyan-
dotte. The race was principally be-
tween the two former crews, and was
won by the EXcelsiOrs by half a length,
but owing to the Wyandottes fouling
the Shoes, it was decided that the Shoes
and Excelsiors should pull the race
over again tomorrow.

HAND-SHAKING.
Second Day of the Soldiers Re
union at Cambridge.

ClNcINNATI, August 27.-The Gazctte's
special states that the second day OF the
soldiers reunion at Cambridge was
opened by national salute OF thirty
eight guns at sun rise. Throngs OF
people were in attendance and the
number was even greater than yester-
day. Governor Bishop and General
Ewing were present to-day and the latter
discussed the States rights theory. He
blamed the South for their radical views
upon it in which they held the right
to secede and the North for their ex'
treme oppositition, which led them to
some acts unauthorized by the Constitu-
ton, and which tended TO incite the
South. The war, he believed, settled
the question and he did not believe
there was now 1000 sane men in the
country who believed IN the right OF
secession. In the afternoon a grand
parade took place, the veterans carrying
their tattered colors. General Ewing
held a reception in the afternoon and
left for Steubenville this evening.

The Political Outlook.

The next Presidential campaign will
have one important feature-it will vir-
tually express the peoples verdict upon
the questions at issue between the lead
ing political parties. For behind our
government, behind our politicians. be-
hind all the legislative machinery, rings
and petty partizan organizations, Is the
real ruler and director OF our govern
ment-the sovereign people. Every
official will be brought before the in
quiSition of the peoples tribunal, and
all proved unworthy will be ignomini-
Ously sent home 10 tend their farms and
their own business. The people will
endorse nothing whatever, be it a Pres
ident or a pill, that has not proved itself
a genuine article. That the American
people have SO long acknowleded, by
both word and patronage, the genuiness
and value Ot'Dr. Pierce's Family Rene
dies, is proof conclusive that their use
fully justities their discoverer's claims
for thom. No other proprietary medi-
cines sell so largely. The Golden Medi-
cal Discovery is a sovernign remedy for
all scroiulous, blood and skin diseases.
1t has pretty thoroughly superseded the
old-time sarsaparillas. The Favorite
Prescription has no equal as remedy
for those chronic weaknesses and painful
affections peculiar % women. Pleasant
Purgative Pellets, sugar-coated and
scarcely larger than mustard seeds, are
now the popular laxative and cathartic.

Twenty Millions Of UndeliYered Bonds IN

An Interesting Grab.

WASHINGTON, ID, c., August G.-An
attempt is being male, but lame one,
10 excuse Secretary Sherman's indul
gence to the First National Bank Of New
York. 1t is said il is not true that the
four per cents. have been turned over
10 the banks without security. As the
Government holds ample security for
the entire amount handed to
the banks, the bonds being
delivered only in such sums as
the banks require from time 10 time for
sale. This explanation is true 10 this
extent: That Secretary sherman mas
Idle i'm the vaults OF the Treaury, unde-
liv,rcd, $4,000, 900 OF four per cents, Tor
which the First National Bank OF New
York subscribed; but the Syndicate,
with a zeal cOmmendable on their part,
have cut the coupons OIL and have real-
izei the interest, This sO-called secu-
rity is a good deal like the Dutchman
per cent. Secretary sherman can twist
his transactions with the First National
Bank any way he pleases to suit the
public eve; but the fact will remain,
nevertheless, that he is at the mercy OF
the bank.
Who Paid the Money!

iu.l,ments against him was made up IN

pO,e sent his son Webb 20 Shellaharger

reported % him that CaSanaye was IN a
conspiracy. The money, however, was
not returned tO the President. as II had
already been sent 10 New Orleans To Col

Ingersoll's New Party.

Western Christian Advocate. CO.
The Thinl Annual Congress OF the
National Liberal League will bold its
sessions in -CineinTtati, September 18th
and 18th. Colonel K, G3lngersoll is the
life Of the movement. The intidels who
follow the leadership Of, this gentleman
have taken special ottense at the refusal
of President Hayes To- pardon the motor
Ious d. VI. Bennett, who was sent to the
Penitentiary for sending obscene publ
cations through the mails. They pro-
pose TO form a political organization.
MIR. Ingersull says: "In many OF the
States intidels are denied the civil
rights Of citizens. They are not al
lowed tn testify OF hold office.
I'm most of the States laws are en-
forced against what are called viola
tions OF sabbath and free-thinkers are
denied the right to use that day as they
desire. We want the schools freed from
the control of superstition. We want
church property 10 bear its share OF the
public burdens" limo good comes of
the new political party, its organization
will show both the weakness and
true designs of the self styled "LIber-
ais" Nor will a few "glittering gener-
alities" about Hberaity deceive the
public in reference To the true animuS
Of the movement. The American people
have many sins to answer Tor, but they
are not prepared To surrender the bene-
fits of civilization and Christianity in
exchange for the chimerical schemes OF
SkrptlCS.
