CONTRAST Generals Jackson and Grant.
The former was the man OF moral STAN.
ina, fearless and firm. He did not fear
poverty, even in his old age, and never
allowed himself to be made an object of
charity. When his Presidential career
ended, like true American citizen, he
returned to his farm and remained there,
attending to his business. Would not
Gen. Grant have raised himself in the
estimation Of good men if he had done
likewiseP II must be remembered, too,
that General Jackson was not a man Of
great wealth, as will be seen by the fol-
lowing letter, written after retiring from
the Presidency;
II returned home with just 800 in
money, having expended all my salary
and most of the proceeds of my cotton
crop; found everything out of repair,
corn and everything else for the use of
the farm to buy; having but one piece Of
land besides my homestead, which /
have sold, and which has enabled me to

BONDS fall kinds are now so hypoth-
eCated to borrow for stock speculation,
that Secretary Sherman, who expected
to get over $11,OOO,OOO of bonds which
mature the first of the year, will receive
only $1,OO0,OOO. The Treasury authori-
ties in Washington believe the present
ratio of speculation is Fastening another
panic.
Just 30; our whole fabric of currency
is paper money bubble. Government
bonds are only promises to pay; the
treasury notes, greenbacks, are promises
to pay; National bank currency are prom
ISIS to pay, based on the bonds as Sc
Curity and redeemable in greenbaCks.
Hence it is the country is liable to inha-
tion, to speculation, to panic and col
lapse. The whole fabric of our currency
is bubble, liable to be used and abused
by designing, grasping knaves who may
thus control, in measure, property and
business values. Never can we have BE-
curity and safety under such state Of
things. Place the currency where the
Constitution put.it. Let the policy Of
the Government be to establish justice;
not to secure favors and monopoly to the
favored few. The safety of the people is
the supreme law; and, in even handed
justice, is safety.

GEN. o, o HOWARD,

Appointed by Mr.. Hayes to West Point,
ovelAows with false professions and
whining appeals for negro equality. His
sanity character may be seen from the
following account of his connection with
the Freedmen's Bureau and the Freed
mems Bank, that swindled negroes out
of large sums But read the sketch from
contemporary, and then judge Of How
ard and his doctrines of race equality:
"In 1875 the House OF Representatives
was compelled, principally by exposures
made in the Cincinnati Gazette by it's
Washington correspondent, Gen Fl. v.
Boynton, of the illegal and corrupt prac'
tices of Gen. o. 0. Howard, directed an
investigation in'o the sffairs of the
Freedmen's Bureau to be made. OF
course, the result WAS whitewashing
report. Nevertheless, it was conclusive
ly proven that appropriations made for
and the receipts of the Freedmen's Blu
reau, amounting to more than 5000 900,
were by Gen. Howard, without author
ity of law, turned over to Howard Uni
yersity, Hospital and lands; that portions
of the land alledged to have been sold
for the benefit of Howard University,
went improperly to members OF his fam
ily; that he accepted in payment for
some of this land, bonds which he had
issued in aid of the First Congregational
church of Washington, and that he had
never accounted for or redeemed these
bonds; that eYen the buildings for the
Howard UniSrsity and Hospital were
built of patent bricks, made by a con-
Germ in which Gen, Howard and men,
bers Of his family were interested; that
he had appropriated labor belonging to
the Government, without compensation,
to his private use; that he drew their
salaries in defiance of law; that he ad'
vanced a large sum of money as dis.
bursting officer of the Government to the
Young Mems Christian Association of
Washington, of which he was President
taking worthless security therefor, which
disposition of the money of the Govern
ment was embezzlement; that he pur-
posely suffered an officer of the Bureau
to sell lands in Washington to freed
mans school in North Carolina, and he
paid for the same out of money appro'
priated for the school; that he was privy
to the swindles of the Freedmen's Bank,
belonging to the Freedmen'5 Banking,
and benefited by the use of the money
collected from the poor negroes of that
concern"
This is the record of Howard as the
Christian soldier and friend of the col
ored race. SChofeld never cheated the
black man Of penny, but he declined
to gush, and so had to go.

WHO DOES PROTECTION PRO
TECT, ANYHOWs

IhCI1 AN hOW
The Detroit Evening News thus point
edly exposes the fallacious idea that the
laboring class are protected or benefited
by high tariff:
"The thinnest of all arguments set up
for a high tariff. is the pretense that it
protects laboring people, and as the great
mass of people perform labor Of some
sort, anything that protects them, must,
of course, be a great blessing to the ma
tion. Has the reader ever counted up
the classes of aboriDg people that are
protected by a tariff? Housebuilders
are not protected, for homes are not i'm.
ported, and this rules out carpenters, ma
sons, plumbers, painters, sash'makers,
etc. Men who do custom work Of any
kind, such as tailors and shoemakers,
who make shoes and clorhes to order
are clearly not protected by the tariff.
Men who dig, quarry stone, load and
unload vessels, and engage in common
labor generally, cannot profit by the
tariff for they pro uCe nothing with
which imports could compete. Miners
of coal and iron ore need no protection,
for neither ore nor coal are imported to
any extent. Merchants, the professions,
railroad hands, telegraphers, sailors, etc,
get no protection from any tariff, Wo-
men, as class, are not protected by it,
being engaged mostly in domestic labor,
which has nothing to lose or gain by
foreign competition, while children, pos.
sibly few in certain factories, are not
protected, since they manufacture moth
ing. Lsborers on farms, in gardens, in
orchards or mills, who are engaged pro-
ducing or preparing provisions of any
kind, are not protected. Who then, are
the laboring Ieople protected by tar
i'll, and what proportion Of the great
mass are they who are taxed for their
special proteCtionP"

The Stark County Democrat, with a
tender regard for the rights Of the color.
ed people that is quite refreshing, sug.
gests that Gen. Garfield place a colored
man in his Cabinet. How you do love
him, to be sure. What is it you used to
call him.-Rep.
Colored man, or negro; either is proper
and respectful. We used to tell the alb
clifton Republicans they would rue the
day they conferred suffrage upon the
negro, and they rue it now. They do
not find the colored people Republican
to the extent they anticipated. The
South is Democratic. Had they known
what they know now, the negroes would
not be voters.

II would seem the desperate scheme
is being incubated at Washington to de.
monetize the silver currency, If it can.
not be attempted this winter, when John
Sherman gets into the Senate he will
make it his especial business, as he is
the champion OF the scheme, and will be
aided by Garfield, who was the cham
pion of the villainy in the House in op.
posing the reconciliation. The gold
bugs and all monopolists have devoted
friends in Sherman, Hayes, Garfield and
company. DR.. Scott, of the House of Az
sembly, member from Warren county,
says he supposes "all we will have to do
is to hold an inquest on John Sherman
and send him back to the Senate" Of
course the moneyed kings who rule and
plunder must have their way, as long as
the Republican party rule.

NEW YORK city is a point of some con-
sequence in the country, as will be seen
from the fact that during the past year it
imported $544,OOO,OOO worth of goods,
while every port in the United States
besides, brought in only 2170O0 0OO
New York also exported nearly $3.50, 900.
900, while all other ports combined ex-
ported $445OOO,OOO. New York sent
abroad two.thirds Of all the provisions
in the country, and nearly one'half the
breadstuffs, but only one.ffth the cot
ton. 1t has sent away two-thirds the
oil, and nearly all the tobacco. The for
eign commerce of New York has increa-
sed nearly $2SO,OOOOOO in the past year,
while the increase Of the other ports in
the Union put together was but $4l1 ,0O0'
100000.

IT would seem that the hatChets hsYe
been sharpened up in the state of New
York, among the Republican chiefs, for
each other. The New York Tribune has
served notice upon the COnkling wing of
the Republican party in that state, that
Gen. Garfeld's administration will be
faithful to those who were true to Re-
publican principles in the Chicago con.
vention. 1t also says that no member
of the party in the Empire state need
fear punishment from Roscoe for any
action at Chicago, or that they may now
take, in regard to the election of Uni
ted States Senator. Roscoe, however,
will wallop them all in Jay Gould's or
gan. The sprague matter will not hurt
at all.

Gov. FosTER's usual cheek is visible In
his message, when he says that in his
appointments he has sought to exclude
mere partisan reasons." This is in &C
cordance with Charley Fosters usual
hypocrisy. The bills recognizing the
public institutions were for partisan pur.
poses, and to pretend anything else is
false and mean. The whole and sole
aim was to oust Democrats and put in
Republicans, and it is not honest to pre-.
tend otherwise. Charles Foster never
learned to tell the truth and sham the
devil.
