Here is passage from Senator Conk.
llng's Grafton in the Academy of Mu'
sic.
''Gen. Grant was elected President upon the
resumption platform, and in his inaugural de.
clared that the debt must be paid aud re
turn to snecie basis made as soon as posi-
BILE.
1.-The South hated the Supreme Court, and
was planning to secure control of It, In order
that the laws of the country might be con-
sJrued for partisan purposes"
With his personal knowledge of the
facts, and his participation in legisla-
ton affecting resumption Of specie pay
ments. Mr.. Conkling is the last man
who should have provoked full ex-
pOsure of the disgraceful mode by
which resumption was defeated and
the Supreme Court was prostituted in
the interest of two great corporations
and of spectators in the secret. Aside
from the Great Fraud of 1875, when
the Presidency was stolen, this is the
darkest page of our history because it
debauched the Judiciary.
In 1855 Republican Congress, in
which Mr. Conkling was Represents
tive, enacted that no vacancy on the
bench of the Supreme Court, then con-
sisting of nine Justices, should be filed
until the number was reduced to six.

Notwithstanding the temporary fail
ure of the Virginia negotiations for .
single set of Hancock and English cleo
tors the New York Sun is not in the
least disquieted as to the way the vote
of the State will be cast in November
Democrats in other States may rest as.
sured that Virginia is Democratic
State-Democrati to the back bone.
Her people are in earnest in their
Democracy and will not suffer local
differences to endauger the success of
the vital principles and transcendent
interests which the national ticket
represents. The electoral votes of Vir-
ginia are as safe for Hancock as if they
had already been counted. And if
Republican politicians, waiting to catch
larks when the skies fall, fancy that
De Golyer Garfield stands any sort of
chance of getting those votes. they are
hugging very silly illusion. Our
Eastern contemporary, which is usually
well informed, utters the positive as
surance that November will find q
single Democratic electoral ticket in
the field in Virginia, which will Cam
mand the hearty support of all Virgin
ia Democrats. Funders and Readjusters
alike.

Comparatively few voters have any
idea Of the ample variety of Presiden-
tial tickets presented to them for a
choice this year, even leaving out OF
the question the Liberals who are yet
to nominate. The Union Greenback-
Labor Convention, which met at st.
Louis and represented one wing of the
party, nominated for President Stephen
ID. Dillaye, of New Jersey, and for
Vice President B. J. Chambers, of Tex
as. Mr.. Dillaye declined the nomina-
tion In the interests Of party unity, and
at the Chicago Convention in June
James B. Weaver, OF Iowa, and B. J..
Chambers were made the nominees.
The Republicans were second in the
field and selected James A. Garfield, of
Ohio, and Chester A. Arthur, of New
York. The National Prohibition Con-
vention, which met at Cleveland, pre-
sented as its candidates Neal Dow, eof
Maine, and A. H. Thompson, of Ohio.
A week later the Democratic National
Convention at Cincinnati selected the
winning ticket-Winfield Scott Han
cock, of Pennsylvania, and William HI.
English, of Indiana. The Peoples La

General Banks on the 9th of August
1872, made u long and vigorous speech
in behalf of Mr.. Greeley against Grant,
in the course of which he thus alluded
to the scare which the Grant men had
invented about the terrible things
which the South would inf1ict upon the
country if the Republicans were beaten;
Like ruffian who seizes you by the
throat and says you will die if he takes
his hands off, 80 these people take the
country by the throat and say unless
we are continued in power all calamitiei
will come upon us and the land in
which we live" Now General Banks
is travelling through "the land in which
we live" to get up if he can a repetition
in 1880 of that Grant "scare" which
he thus derided in 1872! OF course he

ton Of the Attorney General was car
ried by the votes Of Strong and Brad
ley, in the face of the understanding
that these appeals were included In
the general judgment on the legal-ten'

Of rule Of the Court. An order with.
out precedent reopened the question,
and, as the world knows, the solemn
decree Of the highest judicial tribunal
was reversed soon after it had been re-
corded. ~sa ~"
The proof of collusion between Grant
and the corporations is not only furn-
ished by the appointments Of Strong and
Bradley, who were notoriously their
creatures, but by the, action Of his
Attorney-General, who prepared the
way for the consummation of the in
iquity. ......
The return to specie payment was an
accomplished fact on the 18th of Janu-
ary; 1870, and would have remained 90
but for Grants Administration and
the Republican party. Mr.. Conkling
must bear full share Of this response
bility. for he helped TO pass the laws af-
fectlng the Supreme Court, he voted to
confirm strong and Bradley, he was one
Of the pillars of Grantism. and he was
tho chief advocate Of a third term at
Chicago.
The reversal Of the legal tender de-
cision was q fatal blow at the prosperi-
ty Of the country. It opened the doors
to extravaganza, venal legislation, cor
ruption in office, wild excess. and every
form of abuse, and was naturally fol-
lowed by the cataclysm of 1873. The
ruin Of fortunes, the crash Of enter
prise, the collapse of industry, and the
bankruptcy of tens Of thousands may
be traced back to that cause, due en-
tirely to the party which has now
the audacity to ask. continuance In
power. 'til J

New York that nGeH Grant was Sleots

packed the Supreme Court to defeat 1t.
Mr.. Conkling tried to alarm business
men by telling them "the South was

preme Court.in :order that the laws of
the country might be construed for par
tisan purposes" That is precisely what
he and his party did when they dcgrad-
ed the Court and made.i an instrument

The state Treasury.
JEFFERSON CITY. Mo-, I
Sent. .lR. 1850. {

| sept. 10, IooO.
Hon. J. w. BERGMAN. Arcadia, Mo-:
Dear iSir:-Your letter Of the 14tt
inst. to Hon. A. o. Allen has been hand
ed to me for reply.
Inasmuch as there exists In the mindi
of many people false impression a. te
the management of the finances Of the
State during the past four years, 1t. af
fords me pleasure to furnish you with q
full and true report of the transactions
of the Treasury during the present ad.
ministration-that is, with reference to
the deposit of moneys in banks and the
amount now tie d up I'm said institutions,
and the prospects as to the collection OF
the balance now outstanding.
In order to have full understanding
of the whole matter, 1t is necessary to
commence back in January, 1877, when
Treasurer Gates came into office. Up
on his installation as Treasurer, he found
the laws defining his official duties to he
the same as had governed his predeces-
sors in the discharge of their duties for
over quarter Of century, except the
provisions of Sec. Is, Art. 10, of the
Constitution Of 1875. which provides for
the depositing of State moneys in a
manner different than what had been
the custom of the days when Hon. A.
w. Morrison was Treasurer.
Col. Gates, believing that legisla ton
was necessary to give vitality to Sec.
IA, Art. 10, of the Constitution, did not
observe its requirements when he took
charge Of the Office. and SO stated in
his letter to the 29th General Assem-
bly,, bearing date March 10th, 1877, as
follows: II further state that inasmuch
as there is no statutory law giving effect
to Section Is. Article 10, of the ConsH-
tuition, / have not observed the require
ments of the same, but have the funds
in my custody 30 situated that can
subject them to the requirements of any
legislation that may he adopted for the
Of the Treasury Depart
ment. Believing that the present Gen
eral Assembly would at an early day
enact laws enforcing the Constitution,
the funds In my custody have been tenn

Vice President are J. w. Phelps, of
Vermont, and ex-senator 8. g. Pome-
roy. Of Kansas. The voter who cannot
find his tastes suited in this assortment
must be pronounced decidedly hard to
please. The only thing certain about
the contest is that when the votes are
counted Hancock and English will be
found to have clear majority over all
of very remarkable dimensions.

Gen. Franz Sigel, one of the many
German Republicans of prominence
who are supporting Hancock and Eng
lish, writes home as follows of his visit
to Ohio, Indiana and other Western
States:
Il am most warmly received wherever
70, and everywhere I find the greatest en-
thusiasm for Hancock and English. I like
the Democracy Of the West The very best
citizens, and to speak Of the Germans in par.
ticular, may say that nearly seven-tenths of
the German voters of the West, are numbered
among the supporters of the Democratic can
didates. And especially is this the case in In
diana, State into which hundreds of negroes
have been imported, as l know OF my own
knowledge, for the purpose OF preventing the
Democrtic party from carrying the State. But
am satisfied, however, that Indiana will be
carried for Hancock and English"

What Is Going On.

The general tendency OF things In
this country is change from Republi-
canism to Democracy. Five years ago
the Lower House of Congress made this
change; three years later the Senate
followed the example. Missouri itself,
now so strongly Democratic, was called
Republican a few years ago; SO was In
diana; 80 was Ohio, which ia now Dem-
ocratic nearly half the time; even
Maine, the "Pine Tree State" as it is
lovingly known in Republican nomen-
clature, has either ceased to be Repubii-
can or is Republican only by the skin
of its teeth. The old city of Boston,
the tountain-head of Republicanism,
has become Democratic city, andsthe
permits for the use of Faneuil hall are
now issued by Democratic officials.
Republicans of national or local prom
inence who have turned their backs on
Garfield and espoused the cause of
Hancock may be counted,by the hund-
reds in the country. Butler, Julian
and Forney have their imitators all
over the land.
Senator Conkling cannot understand, +,
or he pretends he cannot understand, (,
the disappearance of the large Republi<
can vote in some Of the Southern States,
and he boldly asserts that white intinl-
idation alone can account for 1t. But
if the Senator will take look over the
whole country he will find that what
he regards as local phenomenon is
general one; it is not confined to the
South; it extends to the North. There
was very interesting exhibition of it
last week away up on the Penobscot
and Kennebec rivers. Senator Conk-
ling asks what has become of the for
mer Republican majority in South Car
olina? We mightreply by asking what
has become Of Ise@s~rsase - goo Repub-
lican majority in Maine; the former
Republican majority in Missouri; the
former Republican majorities in Indiana,
Ohio, New York, Connecticut and New
Jersey? The answer to one question
will probably contain the answer to the
other; the former Republican majori-
ties in the Southern States have gone
the same way with the former ReDub-
lican majorities in some of the North
ern States-into the Democratic party.
Would the Senator have Alabama con-
tinue to be Republican after Boston has
abandoned Republicanism? Would he
deny to the negroes of Louisiana the
right enjoyed and exercised by the
whites Of Maine? If Butler, Julian,
Forney and hundreds of other we'll
known white men in the North turn
may not the colored people of
the South do so?
Ifthe exercise of free will explains
the phenomenon in one case it is not
necessary to look to intimidation to ex-
plain it in the other. The country is
evidently tired of RepubIicanism. 1t
proved this four years ago, when it
gave Democratic popular majority of
over a quarter of a million votes: and
1t will prove it again, even to the con-
viction of Senator Conkling, in No
when it gives still larger
popular majority in favor of Hancock.

Preserves.

DEAR FARMER:-Now is the season
for canning, preserving and picking.
Every housewife feels Il just pride in
seeing the fruit shelves filled with
cans, jars and tumblers, full of the
different kinds of fruits, etc. In lat
ter years how delicious the task. when
the sugar and fruit or juice must be
weighed separately to insure per-
feet result; all this is now done away
with by simply measuring, taking the
same amount of sugar us fruit: pint
cup is about as good a measure us can
be found. although have used Il tea
cup with us good result. In preserv-
ing. measure your fruit and sugar;
put the sugar on to melt, adding IL
very little water; steam your fruit it
of plums, or cherries. Blackberries,
raspberries, Strawberries, or amy fruit
that does not have thick skin needs
no heating. AS soon us the sugar be-
gins to ':candy' turn in the fruit, let
it simmer, taking off the scum as it
rises. AS soon us the fruit gets heated
through and the juice begins to jellie,
(which can be told by taking out Il
little and let cody take it off the fire
ana seal up while hot, C,ny earthen
dish will do, covering the top with
paper wet with the white of an egg).
\ good way to preserve rhubarb for
winter use: is to cut into slices, pack
into Il jar, pour over boiling water,
then turn Oh little lard to make IN
air tight covering, and cover the jar
with paper the same as for preserves.
AS this is getting lengthy, and for
fear the editor may consign it to the
waste basket. I will send information
at Il later day. SEPT.
