every citizen, native or adopted, in
every section of the republic in the
enjoyment of all the rights guaran-
teed by the constitution aud its
amendments.
A sound currency of honest money
of value and purchasing power
corresponding substantially with
the standard recognized by the COM
mercial world, and consisting of
gold and silver and paper convert
ible into coin, will be maintained /;
the labor and manufacturing COM
mercial and business interests of the
country will be favored and encour-
aged in every legitimate way.
The tOiling millions of our own
people will be protected from the
destructive competition of the Chi
neSe, and to that end their immi-
grafton to our shores will be prop
erly restricted, the public credit
will be escrupulOuSly maintained and
strengthened by rigid economy in
public,expenditureS, and the liber-
ties Of the people and the property
of the people will be protected by
government of law and order, adj
ministered strictly in the interests
of all the people and not of corpora
tions and privileged classes.
lido not doubt the discriminating
justice of the people and their ca
pacity for intelligent self-govern-
ment, and therefore do not doubt
the success of the democratic ticket.
Its success would bury beyond res
direction the sectional jeal0usies
and hatreds which have so long
been the chief stock in trade OF !
pestiferous demagogues, and in no
other way can this be so effectually !
accomplished. It would restore |
harmony and good feeling between
all the sections, and make us in fact,
as well as in name, one people.
The only rivalry, then, would be
in the race for the development of |
national prosperity, the elevation of
labor, the enlargement of human |
rights, the promotion of education,
religion, liberty, order,
and all that would tend to make US
the foremost nation of the earth in
the grand march of human progress.
1 am, with great respect, very
truly yours, 4i=

the great trial which we were un-
dergOing, never denied the debt

what we were able to pay, Claiming
that this common calamity should
fall on all alike, the bond-holder as
we'll as the landowner, but NV
aspiring friends have found COM
plete immunity--we should paw
nothing. The trouble with my
aspiring friends, who were then
with me, and voted with me to set
tie the debt at 80 and 4, when we
were in the legislature together, and
which the state-credit people did
not then agree to, is that, like

SOME idea of the progress we have
made since the 4th of July, 1776, the
date of our Declaration of Indepen-
dence, can be formed from the COM
paratiye statement taken from the
Boston Post; .,,r i..r.tI +,
This is a time when, as Ameri-
cans. we look like doing q little
boasting. One hundred and four
years ago, when we declared our
selves a free and independent peO-
pie. our population was less than
three millions. To-day, according to
Gen. Walkers rough estimate, IL ls
As, 900, 900. Boston was then an in
significant village, so far as pOpula-
ton was cOncernd, and New Eng
land had buta few scatteringschoOls
and two colleges. The entire cOun-
try had thirty-seven newspapers,
and the best of them were not equal
to the worst weeklies printed to-day
i'm the mushroom towns Ofthe rocky
mountain region. In 1889 we had
but seventy-five post-ufiices, and
the mails were carriedon horseback
over 900 miles Of road, at an ex-
pense Of $32, 900 per year. To-day VIC
have $4,000 p0st-Ollices--and new
ones are being established daily
and the mails are carried over 26J,
600 miles of post roads, at an annual
expense of$2s, ,0O0, 600; we have near
ly quarter ofa million miles OF tele-
graph wire. We have III ,629 school
houses, G3,0S2 churches, 792 daily
papers, and over 1900 periodicals
of all kinds. Our farms are valued
at not less than 50, ,262, ,S03, ,86l, our
farming implements at 1896, SIS, 423,
and our live stock at 81 ,525, ,276, 437.
Our farm products in q single year
aave brought us 81, ,447 ,53S ,65S, and
at the same time we have paid In
farm wages $210, ,2S6, 1886. Our crops
are bountiful-yes, enormOus-and
our exports have reached nearly
$475, 600, 900 In twelve months. Our
are prosperous. In
cotton goods we chalIeng the world.
In one year our 900 mills turned
out cloth enough to encircle the
earth twenty times II made into one
piece, with still enough left TO make
every human a suit Of clothes and

THE Army and Navy journal
closes an article on General Hancock
as follows;"It reamins 10 add that
Ganeral Hancock has been specially
fortunate In being almost or quito
the most conspicuous example in our
day OF the soldier insisting on tie
supremacy Of the civil over the mill
ihlry law in time OF peace. He car
ried this principle so far as to act up
on it to an extent and at "a time not
acceptable TO his military superiOrs,
His devotion to the principle has
been undoubtedly a Characteristic
quality Of General Hancock, and
shence even those who would object
toa military candidate, must make
an exception in his favor"

Monument TO GEN. N. ". Forrost.

We arc rejOiced to learn that the
4 friends of N. B. Forrest are about
Ito take steps toward the fuIfilment
of a long derferred obligation. "A
! Confederate General, who occupies
a conspicuous place in the confidence
and affections of the Southern people,
writes as follows;
WASHINGTON, July %, 1ss0--Col.
M. g. Gallaway-Dear Sir: Some
weeks ago a party of gentlemen, all
of whom had seen service in the
Confederate army, met accidentally
in this city, and amog other topics
discussed was the feasibility OF rais-
ing a fund to erect n monument to
Gen. N. B. Forrest. Before the sep
afation of the parties a committed
was appointed to take the whole
matter in consideration, and after
consultation, ETC., to report again 10
the same parties, who should Or
ghnize for the purpose. The COM
mittee made its report night before
last, the most OF the original parties
being present. / give YOU an OK
tract from the report; af .ie
sThat a colossal equestrian statue
Of Lieut.-Gen. N. b. Forrest be-
erected in such place in the ETY. OF
Memphis, or near there, as the citi.
zens or municipal authorities Of tho
city may designate. That the citi-
zens of Memphis be requested 10
organize a Forrest monument soci-
ETY., solicit subscriptions from the
people OF the Northern States, and
that said society appoint agents in
such places throughout the Northern
States and in the city Of New York
as they deem best for the purpose
of soliciting subscriptions.
Your committee has consulted with
one of the most renowned Of Ameri-
can artists, who agrees to furnish
the colossal statue cast in bronze i'm
the city OF Paris, France, and 10 bO
delivered in Memphis for the sum OF
thirty thousand dollars. The statue
should rest upon a base ten feet
high, and your committee recoIn-
mend that the committee raised in
Memphis should appoint n central
committee in the city Of Memphis
to raise money, and also authorized
to contract for the monument. Your
committee further state that when
twelve thousand dollars has been
received the artist will commence
work. It is deemed advisable that
the action taken be first submitted
before any other steps are taken
here" +tf

Oh ! tits sweet to think when all has fed,
Before the step of pride and scorn,
When friends With sunny smiles are dead.
And earth Is drear, and hearts forlorn;
IT'S sweet to think there's one heart true,
That poverty can meier subdue. .
IT'S JOY to think, when grief and tears
Have been our lot for many years.
a One heart alone, mid storms and i'll,
VIII brave those storms and love us still.
'Tis joy to think when all forsake,
One art is true althO' II break.
'Tis sweet to think, when friends below
Look cold with scorn who once had smiled
Tho tempests howl aud cold winds blow,
We find that one we love mild.
IT'S sweet 70 think. tho all should fly,
One heart will lovo Us till we die.
IT'S JOY upon u friend TO lean,
When truth within tue heart Is seen,
Beaming from the soul-lit eve,
Aud speaking loves sweet ministry.
IT'S sweet 10 think there yet may be
Love, Frien dship nud Fidelity.
