NEWS of most inbuman outrage pracsic-
ed on couple of boys was received at Du-
buque, Ia, on Tuesday. Joe Daniels. far
mer near Jamestown, No, had two lads in
III ms employ. Two hundred and fftV dol
lars were lost and the bows were charged
WITH the theft. They denied it, One of
them was taken TO the barn, a rope placed
about his neck, and hung until dead. To
save his life the little fellow pretended to
give confession, and 10 tell where the mon
ey was hidden The boy was then taken to
the 'SquiTe. and to him he stated that he had
heV9r stolen the money and knew nothing of
us Whereabouts. There was no proof offer
ed ard the boy was discharged The other
boy was also tied up, a loaded gun was poin-
ted at him and he was threatened with death.
No confession being eXtorted from him he
was taken before the Squire and was also
discharged. The community is greatly work

THE REFuNpINa OF TEE DEBT

A considerable portion OF the message s
devoted TO report of she operations con-
nected with the retunding of the three and
one half per cent. bonds into three per cents.
From the fact that these latter bonds rule at
premium the President suggests to Con-
gress that in his opinion the time is now ripe
Tor leglslatio which will enable the Secreta-
ry of the Treasury to further continue to re-
fund the debt. He thinks that the expert
ence of the year concl usively shows that the
bonds of the nation bearing 3 per cent. inter
est can be successfully placed. He aggre-
gates the amount Of interest it will take to
pay the four and four and balf if they re
main outstanding until maturity, and con-
cludes that wise craftsmanship ought to find
out some means of escape for the burdens of
such heavy drafts from the Treasury on ac-
count OF interest. He recommends no spe-
cihc plan. but, If some portion OF the bonds
are not funded, favOrS modification of the
law so that national banks may in some way
have the advantage of The premium on such
bonds as re held by the United States Trea-
surer to secure the circulation
THE SILLY TARIFF CONFUSION ENDORSED.
Touching the tariff the President renews
his recommendation OF last wear that the ex-
isting laws need revision. He expresses the
hope that the labors OF and the report of the
Tariff Commission may be eulightenIng as to
facilitate Congress in dealing with the sub
iect, The President also Tenews his recon-
mendation for the early retirement Of the
silver certificates, on the ground that they
favor an unnecessary addition to the paper
currency. and which he thinks can be sup
piled in sufficient amounts 20 meet the de-
mands of trade by national banks. Az in
teresTng clause OF the message is devoted to
the gold certificates. OF the issue authorized
by the act ot July IL, 1882, S13s 900 600 have
been printed for issue up 10 November I,

MUCH EXPECTED THIS SESSION.
The people expect much from the
Democracy, and it viii have hard work
TO meet even the reasonable expecta-
tions of the people, but it is to be hoped
that it try and do It's best to meet their
wants. It is to be feared that the Dem
ocTatic party, as at present constituted
and led. will not be able to keep up folly
to the promises made by it's best men.
Much has been promised, but it would
be miracle in politics to see party
suddenly converted into a millennial
army of unsel6sh patriots.
GOOD EXAMPLE.
It is to be hoped that all the other
Democratic Governors elect viii. initiate
/ Governor PattisOn's example, who pro-
I poses to be inaugurated in a simple, un-
! ostentatioas manner. The tendency to
! show and parade in the Inauguration of
/ officials in the United States is a most
! unfavOrable commentary on the sinceri-
! ty of the popular belief in the methods
! of genuine Repuhlieanism. This will
/ be p good beginning for Governor Patti
/ son. AT his Inauguration there is to be
no beating of drums, blowing of brass
/ horns, or cavorting of brass buttons

WAS IT cowARDICE ?

Captain Hopkins, the young man
afraid of yellow-jack, was tried, found
guilty and dismissed from the naval
service. Surely it was not c0wardice
that made Captain Hopkins run away
from the Pensacola plague. Although
it is true that he deserted his post at
Pensacola during the prevalence of the
yellow fever epidemic, it surely could
not have been through cowardice. 1t IS
a mystery to me how an officer who
would cheerfully face deatls by going to
sea in one of Admiral RObesOn's boats,
would be afraid to take his chances on
land against an attack of yellow fever.

THE DECAY on PUBLIc vIRTUE.


The decay of public virtue has kept
pace with the growth, wealth and pOpu-
lation of the United States for the last
two decades. The tolerance for crimi-
mails in this country is most alarming. -
The nations moral sense appears to be
deadened. 1t has been stuffed and sur
feited with peculation until it has not
only become used to il but to have a
taste fOrit. The twelve years of Grant,
and HAYES admin istr ration. and as much
as we have had of the present admins
JTation, will live in the history of the
United States as era of peculation.-
The enOrmities Of the stealings during
the three last administrations is terrible
to contemplate. The growing tendency
Of the times towards corruptiug expen-
ditures of money to control nominations
and elections to public offices, is an ex-
treme peril to our Institutions, and a
reform, thorough and prompt. is de-
manded by every consideration of safe
ty. This peril to our institutions is ex-
treme. Never before in the political
history of our county was there a period
that required a mole honest, self-sacri-
fcing spirit than the present. Such a
spirit is especially wanted in PennsylVa-
MIA
THE PENNsYLvANIAL LEGISLATURE.
The Democrats of the PENNSYLVANIA
Legislature which convenes next month
at Harrisburg have irresponsible duty to
perform. Much is expected from the
gentlemen who are soon to enter upon
the discharge of the high trust to which
they have been called. The people feel
a lively interest in their action, and the
members owe it TO the best interest of
! the community to act well their part in
| the work of restoring the credit of the
! State. Let them be strictly honest in
/ the discharge of their duties. A man is
not strictly an honest man who is only
honest when honesty is his best policy.
/ An honest man will not stoop to dis
honorable thing, though great profits
! may result from it.
