IT is historical fact that the Dem
ocratic organizations known as the
Knights of the Golden Circle and Sons
OF Liberty had for their object IA re-
volt in August, 1864, against the gov
eminent III the northwestern States,
the releasing and arming of rebel pris-
oners at Chicago and other points, CO.
operation with the rebels against the
Federal Government, the assassination
of lndiana's War Governor, Oliver r.
Morton, the Selling of government ar
senals, devastation by rebel invasion
of Illinois, Indiana and Ohio, and the
setting up of Northwestern Demo-
cratic Confederacy that should recog-
nize the Southern ConfederacY under
| the Presidency of jeff. Davis. This
gigantic scheme which was calculated
to lay waste the homes Of the people
Of the great Northwest and bring des-
olation upon the people, failed only be-
cause of its discovery by government
Al authorities in time to prevent It's
contamination. And now the party
which originated and sought to carry
it out. and by So doing TO render posi-
Bile the destruction Of the National
Government, asks that the destinies OF
the people be placed inits hands. Are
the loyal people Of the country now
ready to forget the cost in blood and
treasure and the untold woe that the
suppression OF a Democratic rebellion
has cost. and place in power the party
which is alone responsible for the fear
full sacrifices are they ready by
their votes III time of peace to con-
pletely reverse the decision secured
| by force of armsf Let their answer
he recorded at the polls in November,
aud let that answer be in accordance
with the cause of exact justice, equal
rights and general prosperity.

That brings me to another point.
Odd Fellowship is one of the greatest
temperance advocates of the day. If
any of you doubt it, study carefully
the instructions of ou degrees. The
Good Templars. Blue Ribbon Socie-
| ties, etc, have no stronger teachings
of temperance than we have. Do our
teachings have any good effecti Most
| asSuredly they do. No doubt you all
remember Mr.. Nj, (the gentle
man s name is withheld for personal
reasOns) who formerly lived Just Il
short distance out of town, how he
was drunk nearly all of the time, be-
ing sunk into the lowest depths of de-
bauchery. but now what a change!
AT present he is an honored and re-
spected member of our Order at Els
worth, and strong temperance man.
Even here in our own lodge we have
felt Its power and I think there are
those present this evening who, if they
would, could certify to its power.
Another thought. When is it man
realizes most his helplessness I 1t is
when he is Frustrated by sickness,
may be he cannot SO much as turn
himself on his bed. All, then it is
that Odd Fellowship shows one Of it's
AIMS; then it is that it comes to him
and administers to his wants, even
though he be stranger in strange
land and without friends or money.
As soon as he is known friends arise
on all sides. Our teachings admonish
us to assist brother in distress, even
our very signs should remind us that
our hands should ever be open to a
brother either in friendship or distress.
Finally there is time that must
come to all, whether rich or poor,
great or small, a time when the last
kiss or pressure OF the hand is given,
after which all is silent. Then Odd
Fellowship extends it's hand and bur-
les the dead. Then comes its most
philanthropic act in that it takes care
of the widow and orphan. When
death has bereft the loving wife and
mother of her stay and left the lambs
of the home without a father, then it
is Odd Fellowship shows its last act
of humanity in that it comes in sub
stantial manner to give assistance and
council to the widow and orphan of
our order.

Rock lodge, No. 268, /. o. o. F., by
Bro. A. RoSenberger, Aug. 3, 1880.
The question, "What are the true
aims of Odd Fellowship" may be
answered in these few words, viz:
To make us social and humane; the
latter word as used here signifies Wis
iting the sick and distressed, burying
the dead and caring for the widow
and orphans of our noble order.
l am sorry that there are those who
join us who have no other conception
of the beauties of Odd Fellowship than
that it is a mere mercenary Organiza-
tion by which they hope in some way
to aggrandize themselves; but alas!
for their hopes, as soon as they are
within our sacred walls they find out
their error, are dissatisfied, and of
course cannot enter into the spirit of
our beautiful institution until they
are reconstructed.
AS a social institution l think we
have one of the grandest Gf not the
grandest) on the face of the earth.
Here we meet with only those of
known integrity and uprightness, men
whose aim is to do justly and wrong
no one; men of sobriety and pure
lives. whose homes are places where
domestic JOY is known in the fullest
degree, and, in view of the high posi-
ton taken as a standard by our Order,
who viii dare to affirm that the social
status of our lodges is wanting in pu-
rity and loftiness of purposes?
am glad to say this evening that
l am an American Odd Fellow. | say
American because l mean it. If you
will look into the matter l think you
will see we are a step in advance of
our English brethren. The great rock
on which the American order desired
for a separation from the Manchester
Unity was that the latter admitted
the social cup within their lodge rooms
to cheer them in their sessions. But
Bro. Ridgley, the noble founder of our
American order, thought strict tenn
perance the better way and in his
time (1Sl9), can tell you this was
considered a step of unusual import
ance, and might be even the destruc-
ton of his fond hopes.

CORN AND SORGHUM SUGAR.

Agricultural Editor OF the Pioneer Press:
The following brief statement Of
facts in regard to Il subject which is
now attracting large share of atten
ton will perhaps interest some of YOU
readers and correct some mistakes.
In the Philadelphia Public Ledger of
December l, 1875, and subsequently il
the New York Tribune, l published
a condensed account of experiments
which l had made that year with the
Juice of Indian corn stems, adopting
new line of research. l had pre-
viously exhibited at the centennial
exhibit, few days only before its
close, specimens of the sugar so made.
The results as then published were to
the effect that under favorable cir.
cumstances from l 800 to 1000 pounds
of sugar per acre of ground planted
could thus be obtained from the juice
of the common field corn; that the
sugar 50 made was true cane sugar,
that it existed in the plant juice in
peculiar combination and in large
quantity for the time the corn passed
the Towering stage until the stalk and
the ears were ripe, and that the largest
yield was when the ears were but
partially matured. These statements
were reiterated by me at the st. Louis
and Elmira sugar conventions of 1878,
and in various periodicals.
Tests the most thorough and
conclusive, made with scientific precis'
ion by the department of agriculture
at Washington in the use of the pro
cess which bears my name, confirmed
in every particular the statements
which l had made as to the entire
practicability of producing sugar
cheaply from the juice Of the Indian
corn. The fact that a double crop
consisting of 900 pounds of prime
sugar and sixty-nine bushels of ripe
shelled dent corn to the acre were OBJ
tanned by Prof. Collier, the chemist
of the department of agriculture
ought to open the eyes of our western
people to an interest to which they
have heretofore been blind.
But the investigations have by ne
means 0rded here.
IN the FL 1877 l established the
, fact that sorghum cane of every
variety known to us in Pennsylvania
yielded its sugar with invariable Ger
| tainty when treated according to The
method by which it was obtained from
corn stems. These results the chem
ist at Washington has also fully con
| firmed, and the same have been oh
tanned by practical men last year il
different sections of the country. Ac
curate estimates have been mad
showing that the entire cost of grow
ing the corn or cane and producin,
the'sugar in this way does not eX
coed % cents per pound of sugar.
| These statements are either true 0
| false. The time is now close at hant
when they can be either disproved o
more fully verified. If they are tru
they have a significance to which
can give no adequate expression.

HANCoCK-S POLITICS.

Whatever sentiments of political
nature may have been possessed by
General Hancock during the war, he
has since April, 1865, repeatedly Civ
en- assurance of his absolute allegiance
to the Democratic party and conse-
quent desire to witness the supremacy
of that element which fought to dis.
rupt the Union. In the Blair Brod-
head letter of 1868 which resulted in
the nomination of Blair for Vice Pres
Ident by the Democratic party, occurs
the following passage: ''There is but
one way to restore the government
and the constitution, and that is for
the President elect to declare those
acts null and void, compel the army to
undo its usurpations at the South, dis
purse the carpet-bag State govern
ments, allow the white people to re-
organize their own governments and
elect Senators aud Representatives.
The House of Representative will con-
tain majority of Democrats from the
North, and they will admit the Repre-
sentatiYes elected by the white people
of the South, and, with the co-opera-
ton of the President, it will not he
difficult to compel the Senate to sub
nit once more to the obligations of
the constitution. 1t viii not be able
to withstand the public judgment, if
distinctly invoked and clearly express
ed. on this fundamental issue. and it
is the sure way to avoid All future
strife to put this issue plainly to the
country. The issue was put plainly
to the country in 1868. 1872 and 1876,
and is again before the country in Is
| 50 for another re-hearing. In keeping
with the sentiment expressed in the
extract above quoted the Democratic
/ convention which nominated Sey-
mour resolved THAT we regard the
reconstruction acts tso-eaHedl of Con-
gress, as such, as usurpati0ns and I'M
constitutional revolutionary and void.

platform meant anything they meant
revolution, and were endorsed by Han
+ cock in the following language: "Those
who suppose that do not acquiesce

/ ic Convention, or that | do not sincere

sentiments, his candid support, as a
fit person to become the. standard bear

it is possible for any union soldier who
believes in liberty, justice and human
ity to find it in his heart to vote for

SPoFFORD-KELLoGG
DEMOCRATIC ooNGREssMEN DISAGREE.

DEMOChAIIC OONGhESOMEN DloAGNEEs
WASHINGTON, April S.-The Democratic Sena-
tors continued to-day the caucus of yesterday
and meet again tomorrow. The general
sentiment continues in favor of giving
precedence to the Geneva award bill and
such appropriation bills as may be ready for
action after it shall have been disposed of,
thus leaving the Spofford-Kellogg case to take
its chances of obtaining consideration this ses-
sion or 60 over to the next, just as O condition
of public business may render advisable.
Mr.. Jonas said the Democrats of Louisiana
had been misrepresented in the Senate long
enough and they demanded their full right.
He wouldn't answer for Louisiana remaining
Democratic State any longer if the Democrats
of the Senate passed this matter over and left
Kellogg in his seat, and while Senators were
considering the possibility of losing votes
by taking up this case they bad better look at
the other side of the question and consult the
imminent danger of losing the State If they
refused to do Louisiana justice.
Senators Jonas, and Hill of Georgia, Sauls-
bury, Vance and Vest took the ground that the
Spofford-Kellogg case could not properly be
postponed. They were opposed to any evasion
of the issue and wanted the Democratic party
to have and show the courage of its convictions.
They insisted that it was plain Senator Kellogg
had not right to his seat and that the major
ity should not hesitate to seat Judge Spofford.
Senator Garland spoke in favor of going on
with more important public business. The
Kellogg case was not pressing matter and it
should await the Senate's action on the pend
ing appropriation bills and other necessary gen.
eral legislation. Senator Garland went further
than this and expressed his decided opinion
that the Kellogg matter ought to be laid over
until next session.
Senator Thurman thought the Geneva award
bill of great deal more consequence than the
Kellogg case and urged that it should be given
preference.
Considerable feeling was manifested by the
above named Senators, who argued in favor of
immediate action in the Louisiana case and
some of them intimated that they would make
the question personal matter and retaliate
upon those who would bring about postpone
ment. Senators Hill, Salisbury and Vance, of
the election committee, held that the investiga-
tion of the case was ordered with an under
standing it should be disposed of as soon as
all the facts could be learned, and they there
fore thought it would not be treating the com
mittee right to postpone the matter. They al
so urged that investigation of the matter hav-
ing been entrusted to the committee, and the
labor having been faithfully performed, the
majority of the Senate ought to stand by the
committees conclusion.
Senator Bayard and some others thereupon
remarked that their understanding was that

NEW YORK, April 9.-The committee of the
Irving Hall Democracy, appointed for the pur-
pose, met to day and sent to the Democratic
union, who were trying to harmonizs the fac
tions of the Democrats, an answer to the com
munication from the Democratic union decid-
ing the proposition, and also copy of a reso-
luton adopted by the committee, declaring
they disapproved of any arrangement that nec-
essarily involved the responsibility of intro
ducing into the national or State convention
delegates from any organization
which threatened to dispute their
authority and repudiate their candidates;
that whenever such organization consented to
unite with the regular Democrats in unre-
served support of national and State candi-
dates, this committee would be prepared cordi-
ally to arrange terms and conditions upon
which Democratic cooperation and harmony
could be secured and perpetuated.
