Here again the Democratic policy crops
out The State Bank system is desired in
the South for two reasons. First, because
it is believed that by It's tendency to inHa-
ton it would stimulate speculation and
thus induce an artificial prosperity and,
second, because it is in harmony with the
doctrine Of States Rights to which the
Democratic party clings with such tenac-
ity, and which at the South keeps up the
fires Of disloyalty and disafection so con-
tinually. It is thus made apparent that
the attacks on the National Banks, like
the attacks on the bondholders, are natu-
rally and inevitably the offspring Of Demo-
cratic and disloyal views, and that they
are utterly incompatible with any intelli-
gent or conscientious belief in Republican
principles. The same must be said of
every measure advocated by those who
now call themselves Greenbackers. There
is not one OF those measures which is not
directed against the faith and stability of
the public credit and the currency. There
is not one of them which high minded
man, jealous of his country's honor, and
resolute to maintain Republican principles,
must not necessarily oppose and reject.
Whatever specious pretenses may be put
forward by the Greenbackers however
they may affect to desire only the speedy
payment OF the debt, and so forth, the real
purpose of all their plans is to thrust the
nation into reputation. Just now they
propose, under pretense OF discharging a
small part of the bonded debt maturing
next year, to empty the Treasury of its
coin reserve, well knowing that this would
nullify resumption, and battle any attempt
to maintain the currency at gold par. To
the same end are directed their attempts
in regard to silver. They, in conjunction
with the Democrats, have forced upon the
country law which must, if allowed to
stand, in no long time drive gold out of
the Union, and throw us back upon silver
standard. This would involve the certain
depreciation of all currency and securities

TIE TRmPLAR FIAsco.

The mismanagement attending the Tn
ennial Conclave of the Knights Templar at
Chicago appears to have been very great /;
in fact, according to the Chicago press,
nothing could have been worse than the
arrangements. When, however, we take
into consideration the number of the peo-
pie who had to be provided for, it is not so
surprising that the preparations should
have been inadequate. For the provision
ing and caring for great numbers of people
demands an experience and training on the
part of those who undertake it, not to be
had for the asking. The Duke of Yelling
ton prided himself more on his skill in the
commissariat department than on his sue
cess in the field, and the only instance OF
anything like Boosting on his part recorded
was his declaration that at all events he
could claim to know how to feed an
array" At the beginning of the war of
the rebellion it was mainly the collapse of
the commissariat machinery which ham,
pered the Federal Government. The prob
lens of feeding and transportation were toe
much for our raw officers, and they sank
under the strain. Now the Knights Ten
plar constitute a pretty fair army corps in
numbers when they assemble on these tri-
ennial celebrations, and it must require as
much experience and skill to provide for
them as for an army. If the knights Of
San Francisco desire to avoid the mistakes
which marred the pleasure of the reunion
at Chicago, they ought to secure the serv-
ices of experienced military officers before
hand, and leave to them the entire arrange
ments for the material comfort Of their
visitors.

THE RETURN OF TEE LANCASHIRE
WITCH

The yacht Lancashire Witch has re-
turned from Socorro Island, after having
visited not only that place, hut several ad-
jacent rocks and islets, and her commander
reports that nothing was discovered
concerning the crew of The missing Cap
tain's boat belonging to the Mathilde.
This result Of the search appears to leave
no ground for any further hope of the
survival of the missing people. The pre-
sumption now is that the Captains boat
did not succeed in reaching land anywhere,
but persisted with all hands in the storm.
The most touching circumstance about this
tragedy is the fate of the Captains wife,
an amiable and heroic girl whom he had
just married, and who was making her first
voyage on this occasion.

LESLIE STEPHEN on TIE BRADLAU9 Z
CASE

Mr.. Leslie Stephen has an extremely
caustic and trenohant paper in the August
Fortaigdtly Revie1o, on Mr.. Bradlaugh
and His Opponents" The gist Of his
argument is that the recent assaults upon
Mr.. Bradlaugh on the ground of his athe-
ism were extremely discreditable to large
section of those who joined in them, for
the reason that those persons, having them
selves no religion whatever, allied them
selves with the ultra-bigots for no better
purpose than TO injure ana embarrass the
Government. Mr.. Stephen asserts that
the pretense that Bradlargh's atheism
was shocking to the men of
the House of Commons, or for
that matter to the moral sense of the pub
lie, was VIGOROUSLY false and hypocritical.
He says There is something audacious
about the tacit assumption that an athe-
"ist is so rare an animal that he can only
sbe discovered by a careful research into
the annals of the past. There is OF
course a sense in which atheism is rare,
''and .has been declared by serious
"thinkers to be impossible: l mean the
"dogmatic assertion that there is no God
Sin any of the meanings in which that
''word is used. I am not aware that
s'even Mr.. Bradlaugh would make any
'such statement. But if atheism
'.be used to express the state of
''mind in which God is identified with the
unknowable, and theology is pronounced
'to be collection of meaningless words
"about unintelligible chimeras, then l
thave no doubt, and l think few people
doubt, that atheists are as plentiful as
blackherries. This is plain enough, and
challenges denial if that be thought safe
or profitable. But Mr.. Stephens
talks as unambiguously all through
his article, and as specimen of vigorous,
clear, downright and uncompromising de
claration of views which not long since
were regarded as damning to whoever
held them. it is not only remarkable, but

ALBANY, OREGON, May 7, 80.


EDITORS DEMOCRAT:
By request l give you a few dots
concerning what | have seen in my
new home, Albany, town situated
on the south side of the Willamette
river. Its facilities for manufactures
are not surpassed anywhere; it de-
rives its water-power from the Saint
am river, fifteen miles south of Alba
ny, by the way of channel through
the level prairie. In this city there
are three merchant mills that do an
extensive business; also, five large
warehouses that are capable of storing
100000 bushels of grain each, ten
custom mills, one large saw-mill, one
foundry, three furniture shops, two
sash and blind factories, seven black
smith shops, FIVE hotels, three livery
stables, one bank, eight church houses,
one college, and three school-houses.
The mercantile business is carried on
extensively. There are three printing
offices, one railroad depot--four trains
every day-and one steamboat.
This is a beautiful valley of land,
and the richest soil / ever saw. There
is large crop of wheat sowed in this
valley and its looks well. I have seen
a good many corli-stalks in this valley
(the Willamette), but they do not grow
very tall but corn will grow here.
AS to vegetables, they grow to a great
extent and are Of the finest flavor
Irish potatoes, cabbage, parsuips, car
rots, turnips and squashes. The
squashes are more excellent than
sweet potatoes.
This is one of the finest fruit coun-
ries ever saw. There is plenty of
green apples here yet. | never saw
as large apples as is grown here; in
fact, all kinds Of fruit grow TO per-
fection. A,,1.a
This is a splendid stock-raising
country. The, grass grows as high as
a mans shoulders. Stock commands
a good price. A good horse will bring
$4,000, milch cows from twenty to
thirty dollars each, sheep one dollar
a head. A common laborer receives
from twenty the thirty dollars a
month. Mechanics wages are from
two to four dollars day.
Yours truly,
GEORGE Brown.

Food and Disease.

The following may be put down as
the principal causes of disease from
the misuse of food:
l. Eating too much.
2. Eating too fast,
3. Eating food that is too stimula-
ting and concentrated.
4. Eating food too hot or too cold,
or by confusing the stomach by crowd
ing it with both scalding-hot and ice
cold drinks at the same meal.
5. Taking large quantities of drinks
of any kind, either hot or cold, at
meals.
A chapter might be written on each
of these heads; but let this suffice for
those who would enjoy health by
avoiding the most prolific cause of
disease.
