israther an uausual opinion of Lincoln, but
what follows is far worse. Wilkes Booth
killed Lincoln, but if Halstead is to be
believed, others anticipated him in the
idea. He says: 81 do not speak won
tonly when say there are persons who
would feel that it was doing God service
to kill him if it were not feared that
Hamlin is bigger fool than he is. !"
Among other things that he thought were
essential to the success of the Union
army was the shooting of deserters by
the order of department. commanders. He
also wanted Henry May and Wendell
Phillips arrested and tried for treason,
and thought it would be a good
thing to suppress the New York
Tribune and the New York World.
The suppression of these papers might
have helped the Commercial Gazette along
at that time, too. 1t is safe to say that if
he could have his way to-day, the chief
thing he would desire to have suppressed
would be this letter to Governor Chase !;
and when this was done, perhaps
he would think it better for the
country if the Plain Dealer correspond
ent who unearthed the letter were
arrested and tried for treason. Halstead's
party will find the letter very enter
tanning and wholesome reading, and if
they will read closely, they will find that
after all the Democrats are not the party
of progress even in the matter of vituper-
alton

STILL DENOUNCING.

The NeUs continues to heap its abuse
upon all who are arraigned before the
courts for unlawful cohabitation and when
brought up to plead, plead guilty and
promise to obey the law in future. Mr..
John Daynes, of this city, is the last per-
son chosen as the object of the NeaUs' de-
nunciation. He was before the Court
yesterday and entered plea of guilty to
the charge of unlawful cohabitation and
asked leave to read statement TO the
Court, which leave was granted. The
statement, which was published in last
nights DEMOCRAT, was straightforward,
honest and frank, but the News speaks
Of Mr.. Daynes and his statement in these
terms: "Another case of recantation from
religious and family obligations occurred
in the District Court to-day. In this
latest instance of moral cowardice John
Daynes was the leading figure. His
written statement, read to the Court, is a
curiosity, and leaves nothing to be added
to render his attitude abject in the COM
pletest sense" Now what was Mr..
Daynes' great crime? Simply this, he
promised to obey the laws of his adopted
country in the future, and in his state
ment he said that the reason for his hav-
ing formed his polygamous marriage,
which he said he believed in as
part of his religion, was that he
had a right to do SO, and he
thought that when the law which
forbade him to continue that relationship
should be tested in the courts of last re-
sort, that the law would be declared null
and void. The court of last resort, upon
whose decision he had so anxiouslv
waited, declared the law valid, and now
be accepted the inevitable and promised
obedience to that law. Mr.. Daynes when
he abjured allegiance to the Queen of
Great Britain and Ireland swore it to this
Government, and as an adopted citizen of
the United States, the benefits of whose
institutions he has accepted, and the pro-
lection of whose laws has been extended
to him, could he do less than promise
obedience to the laws of the United
States? He could not have done other
wise if he desired to remain a worthy
citizen in country which had be-
come his by choice and adoption.
And for this he is abused and villifed,
abused and villifed by paper that is
the official organ of church which
claims to be the veritable Kingdom of
God on earth. 1t is rather a strange
thing that the first requirement of that
church is disobedience and defiance, of
the laws of the country in which it is
sought to be established. 1t is something
new in theology that the first requisite
to be saint in heaven is to he a sinner
on earth. Mr.. Daynes' example is far
more worthy to be followed than the ad-
vice of the NeCs. The NeUs has assumed |
to play the part of divine bulldozer.

MURAT HALSTEAD ON WAI
HEROES.

In another column will be found a let
ter written by Murat Halstead to Gov.
ernor Chase, in 1868. The letter will
bring back the days of the war when
things were not looking particularly
bright for the Union armies, but those
days were soon to pass away and others
filled with hope and success were to
come. The thing most remarkable about
this letter is the very uncomplimentary
manner in which Grant and Sherman are
spoken OF by one who is Republican OF
the Republicans. Murat Halstead and his
journal, the Cincinnati Commercials Ga
sette can see no good in any Democrat or
anything Democratic. He is one of those
men who are fighting iercely and again
the battles which were fought and won
years ago; he is one of those men who
live by melting passions which would have
died long ago but for such men as he.
Murat Halstead is also one of the leaders
OF the Republican party, and is power
In it. Grant grew to be the Idol of his
party, and in the last years of his life he
was looked upon as belonging to the ma
ton rather than to any party. All admit
that to him and Sherman more than to
any one else was owing the successful
issue OF the war. How did Halstead
speak of Grant on February 10, 1868 ?
Tie spoke of him in these terms: 'sOur
noble army OF the Mississippi is being
wasted by the foolish, drunken, stupid
Grant" This was pretty strong language
to employ about Grant, when it is re-
membered that Donelson and Shiloh had
been fought before this time, but he con-
tinues in still more severe terms: s.He
can't organize or control or fight an army
have no personal feeling about it, but
know he is an ass" This letter is truly
a rara dris, and in it are many opinions
OF leading men of the time that are any-
thing but high tributes to their worth.
Halstead speaks of Lincoln, and speaks
OF him in way that will surprise every
body. He says ''the Presidents weak.
pulling, piddling humanitarianism is
death and hell to the army. Can't YOU
take him by the throat and knock his
head against wall until he is brought te
his senses on the war business ?'' That

THE CITY'S HEALTH.

The report of the Sexton for the month
of September is in. It is in no wise re-
assuring as to the health of the city, and
the number of deaths resulting from
diphtheria is sixty per cent. greater than
for August. August is generally thought
to be the most sickly month OF the year,
while last month was exceptionally cool.
To what, then, must be attributed the
increase of diphtheria? 1t must be at
tributed to a lax enforcement of quaran-
tine regulations. During the summer
some of the local papers, notably the
Tribune and the DEMOCRAT, were contin-

Deer Killed by a Train.

SALEM, Ore, Feb 1.-Two hundred fine
black-tailed deer, which had taken refuge
from the storm in deep cut on the Oregon
Short Line, near Bedford, one night last
week, were run into by the fast west-bound
passenger train. They were dumfounded
by the glare of the headlight, and
twenty-three were killed outright, and
about twenty more were crippled.
The train was slowed up, and the
killed and most of the wounded were
taken on board. A few of the latter man
aged to hobble into the woods and get
away. -Four deer were killed in the same
manner the same night on the Utah &
Northern Railroad, and the next night three
very large ores were killed on the Wood
River Branch. An unusually large amount
of snow had fallen this winter on all these
lines, and the deer, in order to avoid the
biting winds, repair to the cuts and then
stand huddled together. On the approach
of locomotive they are dazed. More than
ono hundred have been killed by trains
within two months.

FROM WASHINGTON.

THE second annual report of the Civil
Service Commission, covering the period
from January 16, 1884, to January 49, 1885,
was transmitted to Congress by President
Arthur on the 18th. The report says that
the Civil-Service law had been found prac-
ticable and effective for the accomplish
ment of it's purpose. During the year 1872
examinations were held and 6,347 persons
examined, of whom 5,525 were males and
800 females. Of those examined, 4,141
passed the grade, showing them competent
for public service, and 2,206 failed. The
average age of all examined was nearly
thirty years.
PRESIDENT ARTHUR transmitted a mes
sage on the 18th favoring the additional
appropriation of 100000 asked for the re.
lief of the Worlds Exposition at New Or
leans.
THE House Committee on Foreign Affairs,
to which were referred resolutions in re-
gard to the recent dynamite explosions in
London, has decided that it is beneath the
dignity of the House of Representatives to
assume that American citizens had had
anything to do with the crimes in question.
The beef and pork products exported
during January were valued at ST, 1861, 1884,
against 1901, SIT in January, 1884.
THERE were 307 business failures in the
United States and Canada during the seven
days ended on the 18th, against 1863 the
previous seven days. The distribution
was as follows: Middle States, 40; New

Failure of the Grant Retirement Bill.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 17.-The refusal of
the House yesterday to suspend the rules
and pass one of the bills providing for the
placing of General Grant on the army re-
tired list probably means that no action
for his relief will be taken this session.
The bill that General Slocum tried
to get up yesterday was the one
in which Grant is specifically named.
1t was opposed by some of the Repub-
licans, who did not want to compel the
President to veto it in order to make his
action in the Fitz-John Porter case con-
sistent. 1t was supported by many DEM
ocrats for the very reason that the Repub.
licans opposed, while other Democrats OPP
posed any action to put civilian on the re.
tired list. General Slocum, who will vote
for either this bill, or the Edmunds bill,
which does not name Grant, thinks the bill
he tried to move yesterday is the stronger
with the House. He therefore sees little
prospect for either. In the last six days of
the session any member who is recognized
by the chair may move to suspend the rules
and take up the Edmunds bill The proba-
bility that such motion would get two
thirds vote is very small

The New Orleans Exposition.


WASHINGTON, Feb. 13.-The President
has transmitted to Congress the report of
the Board of Management of the Worlds
Industrial and Cotton Centennial Exposi-
ton at New Orleans, and also a memorial
of the United States Exposition Commits
sioners requesting an additional appropria-
ton to cover the deficit in its accounts, and
asking authority to reopen the exhibition
during the winter of 1856. The Presi-
dent in his message says:
"a failure of the management to carry
out the original intent, in regard to the expo
stion, might reflect upon the honor of the
United States Government, since twenty-one
foreign nations and forty-six States and Ter
ritories have Joined in the enterprise, through
faith in the sanction Of the Government In
view of this fact. and in consideration of the
value of the exposition to the cause of ma
terial progress and general education, re-
specially submit the report mentioned for
the favorable consideration of Congress.
