tor. II AslAEy prssssd his
siews ola,e pol Zeal hsao Of The
dsy. wuclfs shows that he Is "a IA
vor Of silver aud protection, Is will
be seen BY the following extract
from his speech:
The Governor then proceeded to
tell how he stood en- the issues Of
the day. He said that lie had at
various times made utterancc in
such an unequivocal way, when
not thinking of Seeking national
llonors, that it was generally known
llOw he stOod. When he made
these statements he had hoped 10
spend the remainder uf his days on
the bench Of the Supreme Court
in Louisiana, and consequently he
had no reason to state these views
for political advantage. He had
in 1866, here in Baton Rouge. ex-
pressed himself in favor of bimetal-
ism.
The Governor then went on 10
chow by careful study Ut the early
history Ut the country lie had long
ago come to the conclusion that
silver was the money of the country.
He had based his views IN this
matter on the course Of Washing
ton. Jefferson and Hamilton in re-
gard to the currency. He came out
squarely for b,metalism. He was
also in favor of raising the revenue
Of the government from . tax on
imported articles, rather than BY
direct taxation. The plan Of
Hamilton, which had been approved
by Washington and jefferson, was
to impose duty for the protection
Of infant industries. taking It off
gradually, until it could meet with
foreign competition 1t was by
pursuing this plan Of Hamilton's
the great Pennylvania Democrat.
Randall, had always managed to
get in the Democratic platforms
clause for the protection of the
iron industry Of Pennsylvania, and
the Governor sand il elected to the
United States Senate that was the
line Of policy her would pursue, in
order to get the proper protection
for the sugar interests Of Louisiana.

The arrant hypocrisy Of our North
ern friends in their professions Of
love for the poor down trodden
negro has been cxemplified on
thousands of occasions. Another
is now presented in the action Of
the ten thousand members of the
G A. Il. who have settled in one
of The counties of Georgia. One
ct the regulations of the colony is
that no negro need apply, as will
be seen by the following:

Capt. Anderson OF the stcam launch
Richard X. Fox said that early in
August he had taken fishing party
out from tbs coast Of New Jersey and
landed about Is men on boat, the
name Of which be did not know. He
had been paid s23, but who engaged
him he did not know. He went out
from the Inlet, Atlantic City. He saw
barge alongside. but could give
but little information. The witness
was apparently frightened and Mr..
Vandegrift was compelled to force him
to talk.
Hosea Horton of Atlantic City stated
that early in August no saw party of
men leave the Inlet IN the launch. He
swore that John ID. Hart, who was
present remarked Cast off the lines I;
you know the rest. "
Hans Johapsen, the second officer on
the Laurada on the last outward trip,
stated that four boats were taken on
board near the Breakwster and after
ward out at sea, men and boxes were
loaded from other boats. The cargo
and men were transferred TO another
boat at the island Of Navassa.
Quartermaster Charles Camp OF the
Laurada gave similar testimony, with
the exception that he did not see the
contents OF the boxes
Mr.. GRAY said there were some ques .
tons OF jurisdiction, but he felt that
they could not be properly presented at
this hearing for certain reasons, ard il
was decided to-continue the case until
October 10th, and the bail was IN
creased from 81, 600 to 81, 800.

WHARTON AS CAPTAIN.
Well Quaiified to Lead University of PEN
sylvania Foot ball Eleven.

Wen puaitfed to Lead University of Penn
syivania Football Eleven.
A special to the Philadelphia Even
ing Telegraph has this TO say OF Whar-
ton OF this State, who has been elected
captain OF tbs University OF Pennsyl-
vania football team:
Wharton is very we'll qualified to
fill such position and uphold with
the team be leads the proud position
attained by the Quaker eleven 10 the
last two years. He has shown good
qualities for a captain in his past
work, and the only drawback to his
chances OF success is the handicap
placed upon him by reason OF his posi-
tion in the line. There it is utterly
impossible for him to be SO thoroughly
10 touch with the team as ii would be
il he played somewhere in the back
field.
Wharton possesses great deal OF
energy and determination, and carries
the respect of the men. He understands
the game very thoroughly. However,
a line man is very likely to fall back
in his individual work when bearing
the burdens of the captaincy. The
reasons for this are because bis atten.
tion is much too apt to be distracted
from what is going on in front OF him
by what the men back and beside him
are DOING

therefore, is the study OF the religion
of our Lord.
FOR LOYAL YOUNG PREsByTERIASs.
Articles in all the Presbyterian jour
mails recently proved that the committee
appointed by the Presbyterian rally at
Washington to take charge OF the move
ment for raising the debt OF the Home
Mission Board IS vigorously at work.
In place OF Mr.. Charles Holt of Chi
cago, who is unable to serve, Mr.. viii.
liam Mckay ia appointed On the COM
mittee, whose other members are DIR.
Service and Rev. j. M. Patterson Of
Detroit. There 10 to be appointed to
push this undertaking one synodical
superintendent in each synod, and one
presbyterial superintendent in each
preshytery. Regarding this movement
the editor of Tho North and West says:
THAT is grand. Money talks. Some
OF the young people are not wage
earners. They may be spending money
at school instead. But they can deny
themselves little. and others can do
more TO make up for those who cannot
give. There will be shower next fall
that will make our home missionary
church glad for the sweet faces and
noble gifts OF the. Endeavorers. Some
OF the Juniors are saving their pennies
already, In spite OF all the temptation
that caramels can offer. They give
more than the millionaires.
Let all Presbyterian societies prepare
to make most liberal offering for
this purpose by November LIST. Re.
member what is asked for-at least %
cents member. and that this is to be
in addition to your regular offerings TO
the other boards OF course no branch
OF the Lords work must be allowed to
suffer because of this gift to the debt
burdened cause of home missions. II
is significant that the first contribu-
tion to this fund was 81 from a lady
foreign missionary of Shanghai, China.
Money should be sent to o. d. Eaton,
No. 156 Fifth avenue, New York City.

matter for him, II be was SO inclined,
to keep his followers from casting their
votes for sound money ami protection.
The affiliation Of the Rev. Jonathan
s. Willis, Delaware's Congressman,
with the Uniops, Is viewed from here
as being Significant. The careful
manner in which Mr.. Willis RETAINED
from mixing in the tightH during all
the struggle, aud his appearance now
on the Addicks ticket. is accepted as a
strong Indication OF the way the wind
is blowing in the State. The Hon.
Jonathan wants reelection. and he is
too shrewd to leap before he looks.
1t has been reported that Chairman
Mark Hanna hsa taken personal
interest In the Delaware case and has
written to Mr.. Addicks asking him to
save the State for Mckinney. This is
denied. Mr.. Hanna was seen in his
private Office at Republican head
quarters by The Gazette's cores
pondent He stated that although
interested in the general outcome, be
had taken no personal interest in the
matter and did not intend to.
II left the matter in the hands OF
our Eastern committee in New York, "
he said, land they will settle the case.
We know nothing about what course
will be pursued out here. -
Mr.. Hanna was shown dispatch
stating that be had made a personal
appeal to Mr.. Addicks, and was asked
il the report was correct.
II was present when Mr.. Addicks
appeared before the committee in New
York, he answered; "but have made
no personal appeal TO him. He stated
his claims for recognition and the
