HORRORS OF ANDERsONvILLE.
Ask IngersoIi if Stanton Went where
Curtin Suggested.

On the files OF the war department, Gov.
Curtin says, are two rather spicy dispatches,
one addressed to him by Secretary Stanton,
and the other his reply.
1t was late in the war, probably III the
spring of 1864, that Gov. Curtin came here
to see the secretary of war, and after Civ
ING him a narrowing description OF the
condition of federal prisoners iii Anderson
VILE he appealed to him to save them.
MIR. Stanton said he did not see how he
could do anything why" said the gov
ernor of PENNSYLVANIA, 1--WE have thous-
ands of confederate prisoners; let there be
an exchange With some heat the secre-
tary asked if he meant to propose that we
should take back lot of diseased and en-
feebled men who could not return to the
ranks, and give the confederates an equal
number of healthy and well-fed men who
would at once recruit their armies.
Gov. Curtin said that was exactly what
he was after. ''Well, sir," said Stanton,
"a man who processes to be loyal to The
government ought to be ashamed to make
such reasonable suggestion. Curtin is
an irascible gentleman, and he left in a
choleric condition.
Immediately after he got home he re-
ceived from the secretary dispatch about
as follows: SIN the interests of loyalty to
the government and the speedy suppression
of the REBELLION, you should resign at once
and return to private life, which you should
never have left Curtin replied to the
secretary: SIN the interest OF humanity
YOU should die and go to hell, where you
ought to have gone long ago = Ch'cago

The Exposition at New Orleans, as opent q

w. C. T. L. Those cabalistic letters went
to New Orleans last winter, an unknown
sign to the great multitude But 1T made
friends, was translated to mean the helper
of all nations, and this winter enters as a
most desired occnpant-one to whom the
best place, the needed space, the helpful
courtesies, are given. Mrs. iornby writes
Everybody wants u.s. and this winter We
taken space with Ohio as offering us the
hest accommodations. and felt sort of at
home there, anyhow. We expect 10 ciear
money with our coffee and lunch, we
could not have it last winter, but no"

And the inward moral beauty, too, becoming
outward physical beauty. lfthis were so,
how many ugly people would grow beai;-

Sickness and death re the body's heir
ship, and must by all be possessed with the
life that now is, until the new and per-
feet body is inherited with the life that is
to come. Indeed, the death of the old
body must forerun the possession of the
new, as, in the death of the seed, roots the
stalk with its new blossom. We should
therefore learn to look with the joy of ex-
pectancy on death. We shonld learn to
hail it as the essential harbinger of some
thing better

Not only San Francisco and Cali
fornia but all the world has complained
of hard bushes and dull trade in
lSS4-5, says the San Francisco Journal
of Commerce There is not a civilized
nation where the same wall has. not
gone up from the merchants.
This has set thinkers to speculating
on the causes of it. What can it be
over-production, OF lessened supply
of gold, or what} Some tune since a
writer on a leading English magazine
set down the cause to over-production.
Now while there was some specious-
ness in his theory and his illustrations,
yet the fact that consumption has
about kept pace with production, mill
tated considerably against it. Now
comes another writer and takes the
ground that the lessened production
of gold is the cause. He makes out a
very good case and shows that the
supply has lessened and that prices
have dropped simultaneously, argu-
ing from cause to effect; still he lacks
something in his argument.
1t is very true that lessened prices
have been productive of the trouble as
that means lessened means for all with
stocks of goods and lessened returns
to producers, while expenses are about
the same as they have been. The de-
ticiency OF contraction of the circula-
lating medium sundoubtedly the cause
of this But that contraction is due
NO doubt, to the demonstration of sill
yer, and let other nations admit it as
legal tender equally with gold, and
then the fact of the decline in produc-
ton of the latter will not be felt.
Without this, or the extensive use of
paper money, or universal drouth and
failure of crops, contraction must go
on. Alex Del Mar shows that even
Russia, which showed steady produc-
ton Of gold, of unvarying amount, is
also about to show a decline in it's pro-
duction. Let the United States be the
first to return to reason on the silver
questi IN.

HEROIC GRANT.

to benefit mankind. Can there be a

there IS nothing that appeals with
more vigor to our sympathies than a
strong man conquered by an incu,able

THE UNITED STATES SENATORS,

The Washington correspondent of
the indianapolis News gives detailed
account of the probable struggle for
twenty FIVE Senatorial seats. He takes
up the contest in each of the various
States, but by some oversight entirely
omits the State of Oregon upon whose
elections the control of the U. S. Sen
ate may turn. The next Legislature
of Oregon will have two U. S. Sena-
tors to elect unless the Governor calls
special session of the present Legisla-
ture, which mostof his intimate friends
think lie will do, but which is still in
volved in doubt. IF the present Leg
i>lature is not convened in special ses-
sion, the contest next year in this State
will be unusually exciting. The con-
troll of the federal offices will not &C
complish for the Democrats all they
anticipate, and the Republicans will
probably be in better trim for making
vigorous canvass than they were last
year, when they were fussing among
themselves over the distribution of pat
ronage. The dissatisfaction among
the Democrats over the, appointments
made by the President will have very
decided effect upon the zeal of some OF
the membership, and they will be
found to take less interest in the can
vass than when they were inspired by
the hopes of good things to come in
case the party wis successful.
But for all this, it is the duty Of the
Governor, so far as he can, to make
assurance doubly sure by convenine
the Legislature in special session and
again placing the responsibility of the
election of U. S. Senator where it
legitimately belongs. In this way
alone can he meet thesjust expectations
OF his political friends. News.
