President GARFIELD AND GREENBACK-
IsM.-On his return from Europe, before
his nomination 10 lS6s, President Garfield
found the Ohio Republicans tainted with
greenbackisms. Before he returned 10
Washington his friends gave him recep-
ton. bat said that the State was swept in
70 the grcenback current aud there was no
stemming II. Say nothing, for the feel
Ing Is too strong TO DC resisted. An indis-
Greet word may cost you the nomination
With this caution, he spoke a. follows at
the reception Much rs value your opin-
ions, here depounce this theory that has
worked its way into this State as dishon-
est, unwise and unpatriotic; and If were
offered a nomination and election for my
natural life from this district, on this
platform, | should spurn it. II you
should ever raise the question OF renomin-
ating me, let IL be understood you can have
my services only on the ground or the
honest payment OF this debt and these
bonds, in coin, according 10 the letter and
spirit Of the contract" He was renomin-
ated by reclamation, and ever since he has
been the consistent opponent OF every dis
honest method OF paying the national debt,
and he should have credit among the fore
most for holding up, so far as he was able
the average sense OF the people to the clear
ideal seen by himself and other leading fin-
ancial thinkers OF the times.
In the fall Of 1878, when General Garfield
was delivering his powerful speech up
on the platform OF Faneuil Hall in be-
half OF a sound currency and the honest
payment of the national debt, sceptic 10
the audience spoke out: But il would
cost more Yes" retorted General
Garfield, turning upon him with the vehe'
mence of man who knows that his oppo
neut is mean as well as weak, lit costs
something sometimes to be honest" and
the prolonged, excessive applause which
followed showed how true he had struck
home 10 what is best in the human heart.

Pictorial LLUsTRATIoNs.-" The use.
fulness Of pictures In general way IS seen
by comparing the keenness OF observation,
the general intelligence, the accuracy OF
knowledge exhibited by children brought
up In the midst OF an abundance or W hole
some illustrated literature, with the CON-
parative dizziness Of vision and narrowness
OF information shown by those who have
not been so privileged. The foregoing
which We take from the Canada School
Journal, truthfully applies TO the 5000 Il
Illustrations In Webster's unabridged Die
tionary, In which more than $40 words
and terms are illustrated and defined under
the following twelve words Beef Boiler,
Castle, Coiusn, Eye, Horse, Mold
ings, PhreRology, RdreliR, Ships, Steam,
Engine, TiDsbers, as may be seen BY exam
lining the Dictionary.

ness OF several years, aiiectlng his mind as
well as his body. He was born in Win
throp July s, 1902, and was nearly eighty
years old at his decease. He was educat.
ed At the Monmouth aud Hallowell Acade-
mics, and in his Goth year decided TO make
law his profession. He studied from ls2s

Supreme Judicial Court of Maine, and dis
charged the duties OF that Office with abil-
ity and honor until the end OF his term, Ia

So 80 per cord The plaintiff claimed she
had instructed her agent Consider Farra'
TO sell the entire pile or not any oft. The
agent as well as the plaintiff so testif'
ed. but the trade WAS made through young
man by the name OF Frank Farrar. The
defendant claimed he did not buy the whole
pile, but only so much as he could sell, anc
that he had sold nearly four and one hall
cords and he had credited the plaintiff s
agent with that in accordance with the
instructions which he received from th'
Young man who had brought word 70 hin
from the plaintiffs agent. The plaintiff
claimed defendant had no right 10 take any
unless the whole, and Furthermore had no

This was an action Of replevin for Ger
tain personal property which the plaintiff
had mortgsged to the defendants as select
men OF the town Of Brownfeld. 1t seeml
that the plaintiff was collector Of takes FOL
two years OF the town OF Brownfeld, anC
he alleges that one of his books OF commit
rlent he lost and the other was accidental

/ claims, went around with him and saw
every one OF the taxpayers, and whoeye
said they had paid the same was set dowl
and charged against this plaintiff, anC
which amounted to about $1,000. Thu
plaintiff claims he gave note and secures
| it by a mortgage supposing 1t to be mere
statement OF the standing Of the town, bu
| that he being some what deaf, never sup
| posed that the selectmen would take th,
property away; the plaintiff further claim:
thatihe was defrauded and made to sign the
writings under an impression that they
were not what they purport to be.
This is controverted on the part of the
defendants, who assert that when they

mand for claret or for cut tobacco. The
fighting idea must be given up. and with
that idea all must be given UP, for most
assuredly the English people will not tax
bread avowedly to keep the landlords
rich, or to prevent the country from being
cultivated by freeholders instead of ten
ants; and if bread is not to be taxed. the
farmers will not cry for Protection. They
do not want even claret to be made
dear, unless their own wheat is to be
made dear too, and are, apart from
corn duties, of necessity and from self
interest Free traders to a man. just at pre-
sent they are misled by a hope, but they
will very soon see that that hope is talla-
cious ana the moment they see it, Protec-
ton will have lost rs charm. They value
Fair trade because they think corn nay
be one of the articles taxed to coerce the
foreigner, and as that is impossible, the
foreigner selling us in corn an article we
cannot cease to use, their interest in fair
trade will die momently away. The Low

cry.
