TUESDAY, JULY 11, 18S5-
TBE DETOOIT CONVENTION. ,
The topic of the day in Western financial
and business circles U the approaching Com
merda3 Convention at Detroit. Wc know
not what it will do, nor what range the dis
cussions therein lobe held will take. We
assume, however, that the principal point of
Interest, about which there will be tho most
feeling and the widest diversity of opinion,
will he the question of Reciprocity. Subor
dinate to It, but Intimately connected with it
will be the question of the Niagara Ship
Canal; the question of the free navi
gation of the St. Lawrence, from St. Begls,
where the stream becomes wholly Canadian,
to the tea; the question of international
fine trade in manufactured goods, and the net
less important question of neutrality of each
power in the time of war In which a third
party and-oltber of the contracting powers
maybe engaged. These, with minor matters,
purely commercial, like commissions, tariffs,
warehouse charges, demurrer and draw
backs, will doubtless engage the whole time
and attention of that body. The peo
ple probably will cot attach any con
siderable importance to its debates or
recommendations. _ The Convention will be
made up of delegates mrinlvstdf appointed,
each group anxiously seeking the promotion
of its own local Interests; and, If it be true,
as our exchanges assert, that half of Canada
will be on hand to clamor and vote, we may
regard all questions ae settled in advance for
Canadian behoof Even if this Is not so, we
are not aware that, in the nomination of del
egates by corporate bodies, like our Western
Boards of Trade or Chauffers of Commerce,
any spcc'al care has been observed in choos
ing repreicntatlvss. whose studies and oppor
tunities have made them specially familiar
wilh'the topics that will he discussed; nir
that,in the debates which will be had, we shall,
making due allowance for the usual bus
comb and rhOdomontado' be any nearer a
comprehension of the vital facts which affect
reciprocal free trade than we are to-day.
Questions of policy, and sometimes of prin
ciple, may be settled by town meetings; bat
wc have lived long enough to learn that
weighty matters cf International commerce,
involving a clear knowledge of all the fiets
and figures that boar upon the results sought,
cannot be Justly and finally determined in
popular assemblages composed of those who
b&vc been lucky in com or fortunate In pork.
Matters like, these are for the bureaux bf
governmental departments, and there even
where sectional interest, and the interests of
classes cf producers or manufacturers, are
laid , aside, and the general good of
the whole Is consulted With conscientious
painstaking and enlightenment, mistakes
enough are committed. What may we ex
pect whneprejudlee and sectional or class
interests are the incentives to action and
the grounds of decision? We have no doubt
that the conclusions arrived at, and the reso
lutions and address adopted, will be thank
fully weelvid by Congress aud by the Cana
dian Parliament ; nor any more doubt that
if it shall be found that they addanythlngto
the stock of knowldge on baud, which, how
ever, we can hardly expect, the delegates will
be duly applauded. The present Indlealons
are, however, that the Convention will break
up in a tow.
6o . far m this }ooroal is eon
crncd, It is dcbidcdiy and unequivocally
is favor of the abrogation of the Reciprocity
Treaty and if we have any Influence over the '
delegates from the Northwest who may take
part in the proceedings of the Convention,
we adjure them to ao act and rote as to fire |
the country relief from the operation of that
Hi-advised measure, the Advantages of which :
ai e wholly with the Canadians and the dlsad- 1
vantages with ns. Bat while they do this, wo 1
beg to point oat to them that the free naviga- J
tion of the St- Lawrence is a necessity of the .
Northwest that onr agriculturists do not
wish to forego; and that, to secure it, the ex- 1
pedkney of recommending a new bargain *
between Canada and the United States, where
by reciprocity In someform, guarded '
by new restrictions “ and ezeep- 1
tion c , may b© agreed to, as an equivalent for
an uninterrupted outlet to the ocean which
our people require. But perhaps even this
may be regarded withdltiavor; and lilt shall
■bc f *the delegates from the‘West, wlUbe com
pelled to unite in an appeal to the State of
>sew York, to ao.amend the tariff of tolls on
her canals as to make the taxation
of onr people Jor her profit
far less severe than It now is under the rate
of charges which her Canal Commissioners
have seen fit to adopt- This is the point for
onr Western men to guard. Cheap transit
of Western produce to tide-water, Is essential
to our commercial life? and though the St.
Lawrence is now only an alternative route, It
gerves the purpose of keeping New Tork ra
pacity within Indexable bounds, and
we doubt the wisdom of that policy which
proposes to take that route out of the field
ol competition and compel all onr products
to pay such tribute as a greedy State may
choose to exact- We have not at hand the fig
ures which will show how much the West is
plundered by tolls paid to New York for’the
use of her Erie Canal ; but Mr. Hiram Wal
bridge, who will be at Detrolt.aa a candidate
for Chairman of the Convention, and who
win be opposed to all reciprocity .“will un
doubtedly famish them to the carious who
may ask a sight thereof. They arc more
than the Interest on her entire State debt
with the annual contribution to her sinking
fond thrown In.
While we point oat the danger to which
our Western delegates may be exposed
In one important 'direction, we earnestly
Implore them to make no conces
sions to Canada that do not carry with them
larger compensating advantages to the trade
and manufactures of the United States. The
people of the provinces deserve no considera
tion at onr hands. They have in everything
but in name been at war with us for zn ore than
four years; and to-day, but for the overpow
ering necessity which compels them to ask
cur friendship, they wonld be sitting In sack
cloth and ashes as a visible sign of the grief
with which they had been filled by the defeat
and humiliation of their friends. Justices,
Coursal and Smith wonld be the fairest rep
resentations of onr neighbors that could be
sent to Detroit. We confess that we are not
In a mood to reccommend any close commer
cial or other affiliation with those from
whom we have endured the Ignominy with
which they visited onr misfortunes.
IT any of them want the advantages of our
markets, let them come here and do their
plowing If they are farmers, or their cawing
if they are lumbermen. If any of them are
enamoured of our Institutions and onr laws,
the door is open through which they can
come In and enjoy them—tax-laws and all.
Bnt we protast that as alien enemies, they
fiia.ii not be competitors with onr people in
our own centers of trade. If they want to
abandon their two and-slxpenny colonial sys
tem, send home the sprouts of aristocracy
who give tone to their politics, kick out the
loafers who have made their homes
in Montreal, Toronto and Quebec, during the
war, and adopt Democracy as a principle,
annexation will be easy. But no more part
nerships except under an impulsion that few
on Ibis ride of the Detroit river, or south
of the lakes, fed.
Otß BGSPOKSE TO TUB LOYAL
TIBGIMANS.
The address of the Virginia Union Associa
tion, a synopsis of which we published a few
days since. Is the beginning of ft movement
to reconstruct the State of Virginia on the
ppda of excluding rebels from Toting and
allowing all loyal men, whether white or
black, to vote. It declares that Gov. Pier
point's Legislature ia as disloyal as that
which lately sat at Richmond under William
Smith. It affirms that “ there remains now
no protection to those who have stood by the
Union, except what those who bare -but
recently been in open rebellion choose to
award. The usual relations of the successful
and unsuccessful parties in war If here re
versed. The Union men of Virginia are here
inthcpoaiuonofaconqueredpeople. Bythe
closing up or the war, their lives, their
property and political rights are placed in the
control of those who lathe war were their
political enemies." i t farther affirms that
those who held office under Letcher and
reappointed,
and that hy a very short elrenH upstate ta
returning toexactly tbe point It »ouldive
been, had Picrpoint been abolished aadthp
rebel State government acknowledged, {S®
laH of Richmond. • Uic
To prevent these disasters, the loyal Vir
ginians ask that the loyal men, i. e n the ne
groes of Virginia, shall vote, and In the mean
time, and until, the State shall be recon
structed on the basis of universal eulfrage,
they ask for a strong loyal government,
cither military or territorial.
■Whatever may be the power of this move
ment remains to be seen. .It will enlist the
sympathy and support of by far the major
part of those by whose votes tbe present ad
ministration holds office.
As the reconstruction of a State govern-
mcttl Inohyoflbe EoulheraSlatesls in effect
tbc creation of a‘State' government by the
people of the Slitd, not"by Cho Ycddlal Gov
ernment, there should be no other obstacle
thrown In the way of any plan ofrccoaltruc
t m which any portion of the people may
put forward, than simply to maintain the
public peace by preventing the advocates of
either mode of reconstruction fh>ia Interfere
lag by force with those of others. For it is
Impossible to fortcll whlch-plan. of recon
struction will receive tbecidoriement of thg
largest numl>er of the people of a State until
the vote has been fairly and peacefully taken
and counted. . Gov. Feirpoint and his Legis
laturc do not fully xeprcsenfHhe State of
VhglnlA, bqt' w bnly an. experiment which
rosy or may not prove a success. It has no
right, and should have so.power to prevent
any other orderly and peaceful experiment
having the same end In view.
! Under the precedents _set by Michigan,
California and Kansas, it may be
held settled that the people, i. e. t the citizens
of the United States, living in any portion of
the territory of. the United States over which
there is no established State Government—
and Virginia' IB such—have, under the right
to petition for a redress of grievances, the
right to present the Provisional Government
as a grievance, to assemble In town, county
and territorial conventions, to adopt such
constitution as they may prefer, to order an
election of Senators and members of Con
gress, and to come to Washington and ask
admission, and be admitted, provided .they
can show that they represent the majority of
tLcpeiple within the territory over which it
Is proposed to erect a State Government, it
la not the smile of this or that official, how
ever exalted, but the votes of the people,
that must make the State-of Virginia. 80.
rfißTum bent the whole power of his adminis
tration towards* getting Kansas admitted
nuder her pro-slavery constitution, but he
failed. Let the loyal people of Virginia,
white and . black, organize there, as
the Free State men did in Kansas,
if need be under a separate constitution,
dcct a separate proposed Governor, Legists,
tare and Senators, and contest In Congress
with the members who will be.sent there by
Gov. Ficrpont's organization,'whether the
Pitrpont concern or their own speaks the
voice of the greater number of the loyal peo
ple of, Virginia. Which ever represents the
major part of the people. Congress will, la
default of a compromise,‘ admit as the State
of Virginia. Let similar organizations be
formed in the other States, which may In like
manner attempt reconstruction, on a rebel
bat!a, and we believe it would remit as in the
case of Kansas In the adoption either of a
loyal free suffrage constitution, or at least, of
each a compromise as would be satisfactory
to loyal men, and as would not restore Slave
ry. - Let the Viiglnlau loyalists strike boldly
for the reconstruction of their State upon the
basis .of universal loyal suffrage; and the
Loyal North will stand by them.
SIBADV ON THE EIGHT,
Hrme from the war, our boys late in blue,
or still waiting bn the paymaster, are don.
hing citizens drees and preparing to resume
their places In civil life. A flood of feeling,
not noisy but deep and licartlclt, has wcl.*
ccmcd them back. If any of them have ex
perienced a disappointment at the lack of
demonstration in their receptions, and have
looked to find their march homeward ended
amid applause and the cheers of assembled
crowds,they.have mistaken the purportof the
comparative silence with which the people
have, gazed upon th&ir bronzed veterans,
with full hearts, and memories busy with the
events of the past four years. To the sol
dims of the Republic will for years to come
belong a deep and never to be repudiated
sentiment of gratitude, which will cherish
their services and their valor while the res
cued nation will stand as the monument o!
their devotion to the Union. All this will
be for their reward. Aud it is more than a
mere sentiment, and will find Us tangible
and practical expression in multiform ways.
All other things befog, equal, the citizen will
be tbc better, and will the easier find his
rewards in civil life, from having fought in
the armies of the country. *
The loosing of the bands of military ser
vice restores most of our soldiers to citizen
duty and responsibility at, the very opening
of manhood. Thousands of them entered
the ranks, loosely knit youth, whom four
years have confirmed in manly strength, with
indurated frames and hardened muscles, a
physical advantage that wQI stand tfacmin
good stead. Many of these who went away
boys; have come hack grave and earnest-eyed
men that have looked danger and death in
the face, and gained a strength of soul, a
readiness of decision, a ripening of judgment
of slower growth in piping times of peace.
The farmer's son, wnose only journeys were
to the market town, and whose chiefest ex
citements in earlier days were the Fair or the
annual “muster," has stood at the red forge
where the world's greatest event, the vindi
cation of a popular government, has been
shaped under .the hammers of war. He has
gone down to the sea with Sherman, or cap
tured Richmond with Grant, has followed the
flag through all the States of tbe South, and
in this school, thousands have seen their man
liest attributes of courage, patience, zeal and
Judgment,'gain notable growth.
Bot our returned soldiers must not rest
upon these laurels. They are a dangerous
couch for the qualities they bring home.
Those who have come back maimed are not
those to whom we speak. For these “shool
dexlng the crutch to tell how fields were
won”may be all that is left. For these lei 5
kindly- and grateful country provide the ease
and shelter of borne. The able-bodied re
turned soldier.however, should be better fitted
than before he went away for his share In the
battle of life, and the same faithfulness and
steadiness that made him a good soldier in
thccamp and field will even more surely win
him promotion now, wirh this difference. He
cannot detail his duties to - others. A com
rade cannot stand in his plase while he
: sleeps. He cannot go forward where others
have hewed the way. It is now every man
for himself, aid the best wins. The old Tro
jan leader at the close of a war something
more disastrous than ours, gavehls commits
in arms some excellent advice, too choice to
find its only use to the world In improving
the Latin of schoolboys, ‘‘iSrrofr ro«”-—bat
English will suit us better. “Take care of
yourselves boys, you hsve something worth
remembering.” Let our brave boys fresh
from tbs field accept the counsel. They who
have tolled to save the ship have the best
right to the benefits of the smoother voyage,
the storms all past. They who have stood
shoulder to shoulder In onr armies and beat
en back the threatening wave of the rebel
lion, have the right to enjoy the best fruits
of peace.
The Oriental salutation “ May yon live a
thousand years” Is the.best type of the high
est rewards of the soldier. “ May yon live to
enjoy the fruits of victory.” Save yourselves,
boys, for these coming better days. It is a
perilous hour for manhood, this unbuckling
the harness of war, and the syrens that en
ticed the old Greek returning homeward,
have a numerous family stUlinwait for the
. heroes of to-do?. It belongs to thepeoplcto
pass the warning among- the boys. Thsre
can be no sadder sight than to sec the heroes
who have come unscathed from battle find' a
deadlier foe in the dram shop, and the hannts
ol vice. The tried and tempered sled that
has come out of the furnace of war la too good
to be left to tbe corrosion of vile companion
ships. The spectacle of a drunken soldier
in tbe street, or in the cars, is sad, even if re*
celved with, kindly toleration by those who
see in tbe faded uniform a protest against
harsh censure.- Ills esd, because It proves
that per returned soldiers have a deadlier foe
lyisg In wait for their manhood than the en
emy whose arms have been bnt lately laid
down. The slain in battle are to be envied
far above those who shall live to surrender
worn and wasted manhood in debased iucbric
ty. Better to rest amorg the honored dead
at Shllo or Cblckamauga, than to He down
with the wrecked lives of the Potters Field.
For all onr returned soldiers a future opens
worthy to supplement their recent services
to the country. Never before in onr history
were there so many calls for the best quali
ties of mind and muscle. The whole laud is
open with avenues for enterprise and indus
try. Labor is required to repair the waste of
the war. Manufacturing In all its branches
is being stimulated to rehabilitate the homes
that have suffered the penalty of the rebel
lion. Now, 88 never before, there is no ban
on Liberty, Labor Is free everywhere, and
the mechanic, unchallenged for his opinions,
may be ns secure in Charleston or Mobile as
In the North. The whole South offers as
never before its rewards to tbe industrious
and enterprising. And there Is still a louder
call from the new and undeveloped regions
of the country for all classes of labor, and,
on Ita exercise, wealth waits near at hand.
Unlike the period that has followed some of
the Old World's great conflicts, not an hour
of stagnation will sneced onr war. The
hands that relinquish the sword and the mus
ket can instantly be clasped about the imple
ments of peace, and the great danger to onr
soldiers, Indolence, need not know
a day’s existence. A halt is demoralizing
when Us attendants arc those to which the
returned soldier is exposed. Steady «n the
right, boys- Close up, march!
A NEW THING,
We hear that the organization of a Self-
Protecting Anti-Stink Association is talked
of in the West Division, the members
of which wDI each subscribe a certain
amount to a fund for legal expenses, and bind
themselves, when a nuisance occurs, to be
Jolnt|cotßpiainaul a and prosecutor?,under the'
law of the last legislature applicable to all
such cases. We do not doubt either tbe effi
cacy ct necessity ol auch an association; on
tbe contrary, let ua urge upon the afflicted
denlOTW of the Irorth and South DMehma
the adoption ot some kindred measure. We
have not been ndrUcd where u,. ncxt w „.

MISSISSIPPI, -
: Proclamation of Gor, Sharkey.
EzfrterdlsaiT Fetlar*s of the Doca*
xnent-Xflectlen m Vicksburg—Oor.
Mtarner Urge* Use Uabela to take
Another Oath-
[Correspondence of the Chicago Tribune.]
ViOKsauae, Mi#a., July 8,1665.
Gov. Sharkey's proclamation of date July
let wßi reach yon by the same mall as this
letter. It will be found to harmonize very
well with the President's proclamation ap
pointing the Governor. The only specific
thing the President directs the Governor to
dp, la to assemble a convention to amend the
State constitution; The Governor provides
for such a convention, appoints the officers
necessary to hold the election for delegates,
and does somewhat more. By article fourth
of Lis proclamation, it appears that in any
case the appointment of a sheriff, a Judge of
probate, a coroner and a justice of the peace,
in each county, would have insured an elec
tion. Tetin article first the Governor ap
points a clerk of Probate Court, a constable,
a hoard of police, a treasurer, a collector, an
assessor, and a surveyor for each county, and
a full set of municipal officers for every in
corporated city and town. Article seventh
requires the trustees of the University of
- Mississippi to convene at Oxford ba the 31st.
Article eighth authorizes a sort of vigilance
committee in csch county, with such powers
•asitmay please to assume. In these respects
the Governor goes beyond his instructions.
But he took a greater liberty a few days
earlier, in ordering an election for municipal
officers in Vicksburg, which election took
Slace on the Ist lust. It was clearly Prcsl
cut Johnson's intention not to allow the
“qualified voters” to exercise the right of
suffrage, except for delegates to tho Conven
tion, until alter the State Constitution was
satisfactorily amended. As oar Military
Governor only entered the service within a
fortnight, it u probable the Commander-In-
Chief will overlook these breaches ol disci
pline.
About one third of the proclamation Is de
voted to the task of persuading the pro
slavery men to take the amnesty oath. So
much solicitude cn this point argues well for
the Governor's personal .conscientiousness in
the matter of oaths. But no national soldier
can read this part of the proclamation with
out a tmile at the simplicity of its author.
We have seen the chivalry take oaths and
break them, pledge their solemn word of
honor and disregard It, bind themselves by
every solemnity known among men and then
do as they said they would not, to each an
extnt that we know they have not sound
timber enough in them to hold a nail. Ido
not care in tuts place to charge them with
other fundamental sins, yet sometimes I
wonderingly ask myself, “Do they think the
Yankees made the Ten
Gov. Sharkey is evidently aware toat a great
number of ms follow-citizens believe slavery
not yet dead. Whether Lis argument con
vinces them or not, time will show.
1 TRIP NORTHWARD.
int#»rating Letter from Northern ffl»-
conaln. '
[Correipoodioce of the Chicago Tribune.]
HCDbOH, ST. Cbozx Co.,
Jttlj 4th, ISC&. f
A week ago I tore myself away from the
cmbantmeots of the city, and came North
ward to seek health and recreation. Not
without a struggle, Indeed, did 1 Icayemy ac
customed haunts. 41 Bo It ever so homely,,
ihere is noplace like home.” The water
here docs not taste like that of Chicago. I
maybe surrounded by fairer scenes, but my
heart recalls with regretful fondness the
sights and emcUa with which it has been
so long familiar. The overflowing street
cars; the red wagons filled with crystal lee;
the majestic sweep of our noble river—all
these exist forme only as a tender remem-.
brance. (A bystander says that the river
ought rather to be called a majestic mop,
since It wipes up the filth of Chicago; but I
mention his remark merely to brand It with
the contempt It deserves.) Happy are they
who remain in the city. I can almost envy
your night-editor, ns my fancy pictures him,
in the inner sanctum till 4a. m., the ther
mometer at 100 degrees, and he dripping like
Venus when she rose from the sea.
Starting at 9a. m. from the C. &N. IV. B.
B. depot, 1 reached Prairie da Cblcn at 0 p m.
and started up the river an bonr later upon
the steamer Milwaukee. We met with no
accident, for which 1 was duly grateful, but
I will not waste any compliments upon the
gentlemanly conductors or the efficient cap
tain, since I paid for my ticket, and the price
was considerable. The various companies
have a friendly understanding, and the fare
from Chicago to St. Paul Is £2O. Some Eng
lish economist has demenstrated, to his own
satisfaction at least, that if a patentee or
other monopolist consults his own interest,
he will sell his wares at as low a profit as
would be Induced by the freest competition.
Unluckily I have never met with a monopo
list who could see the matter in that light.
I The cars were full of returned soldiers,
1 and as they dropped off at the various stop
ping places, it was rather disappointing to
notice the cool matter-of-fact reception they i
I me; with from thdrold acquaintances. One
I soldier, with whom I conversed, had been in
1 the army since April 13,1561. Boring much
oftbe lime lie acted as scout, and was once
captured by the rebels and condemned to be
bong. Though sick with measles be escaped
. from prison, took to the swamps to avoid
ibe blocdkonnds, and made bis way eighty
! miles to the Union lines. Worn down by this
terrible exposure be was discharged from the
army and sent borne to die. He thought be
could do better and so got well, and went
back again to fight the rebels. He was now i
returning, with litUeacqnired, save the con
sciousness of duty well performed. Present
ly we reached a. little station which he an
nounced as his borne. Taking up bis knap
sack and bis saber he stepped upon the plat
form. A little knot of Inters were gathered
arennd who looked upon him with dull and
unsjmpathiztng eyes. Presently one ad
vanced saying 4 *Hallo Bill, Is that you? so
you’ve got around again nave you?” and
shook h'fl hand as he might have done if the
returned soldier had been gone a mouth to
the next town. Surely we do not enough
appreciate the worth of our common heroes.
The steamer Milwaukee is a comfortable
boat enough, end there is little about her to
4 -offend the taste of the most fastidious” (os
the circus bills say) cxceptabarln the upper
cabin, at which whisky Is dispensed, of the
mostapproved forty rod brand. This I know
to be a fact, for a friend of mine, who is a
Judge, told me that It was so. There was
another stumbling block In my way in the
shape of a placard requesting 44 Gentlemen
unaccompanied by ladies sot to'enter the
Ladihs* Cabm unless specially Invited.”
However a half dollar bestowed upon the
head waiter so wanned his heart that he
gave me a special invitation. In the evening
as I sat upon deck listening to the splash of
the paddles, and the strains of some excel
lent music issuing from the cabin—where
four common darkies bad suddenly become
transformed into ministers of harmony and
were playing the 44 Prisoner’s Hope” and
44 Sherman’s March to the Sea ” —as 1
watched the moonlight dancing upon the
water, and the deep shadows cast by the
bills on cither side, the scene was one of
weird and picturesque beauty. The shores,
somewhat monotonous and commonplace in
the goirish light of day, were In
vested with an undefined but exquis
ite charm. While thus indulging in poetical
rcflec’lons,the music suddenly ceased, and a
plate was presented to my astonished gaze by
one of the minstrel band. If one happens to
be a railroad officer, or a dUiingninyd citi
zen, he soon becomes nsed to “presentations
cf plate; ” but this one rather took me by
surprise. However, I soon found that I was
expected to be a- donor instead of a donee;
the plate-bearer murmuring something that
sounded like “quarter.” Thus' rudely dis
turbed In my reverie, 1 felt like raising the
black flag and giving no quarter, but finally
thought better of it. Apropos of nothing,
can any one tell me why nobody has ever
setn the ghost of a negro y Surely, there <
must be such a ghost. But I presume that it
is of a texture too impalpable for the most 1
developed.medium, it would be literally I

very much addicted to reading.

JOHN VAN BtJEEK'a LEITEB.
Editors Chungo Tribune
Tho Son of his Father has spoken. - John
Van Burcn has written a letter to the Sa
chems of Tammany, calculated for the me
ridian of the Chicago Time* and all *the “ Are
in the rear” Copperheads of the same per
suasion. He takes Pres’dcnt Johnson to his
arms as lovingly as the Duke of Grafton a vir
gin of the House of Bloomsbury. Henceforth
Mr. Van Buren is a saint in the Copperhead
calendar. He declares that the Democratic
party is on the high road to power, andnccds
no reconstruction. He has earned a plenary
forgiveness of the sin of a temporary and
quasi loyalty, by the fling that the rebellion
has been putdown “intpUe ” of “ourbppo'
nenis in the late Presidential canvass. 1 ' But
Mr. Van Boren declares that the Democratic
party needs no reconstruction although ruled
by Vallaudigham, Pendleton, Singleton and
Cox, and men of that stamp, and although In
Illinois it declared the war unconstitutional,
and in the Chicago Convention it proclaimed
for an “ immediate cessation' of hostilities,"
which all men then knew and now know
meant the humiliation of the Government and
its float dismemberment and erasure from the
map of nations!
In the Democratic Convention of 1541, at
the bidding of the Southern slaveholders, the
famous two-third vote .was adopted. It was
adopted for the express purpose of defeat
ing the nomination of Martin Van Boreo, the
lather of this letter writer, who, although
called a Northern man with Southern princi
ples, was not sufficiently plastic and progres
sive in the new philosophy of slavery, to
keep pace with Its aggressive march. It ef
fected its purpose, and ever after gave to the
slaveholding minority tho power to govern
the Democratic party, and finally to sunder
it In twain at Charleston. The eon nay forget
this, hut others educated in the “time-hon
ored principles of the Democratic party" of
whlctfMr. John Van Buren speaks, aud sup
porters of his father in good report and erlL
report through the memorable canvass of
1840. when he was betrayed and defeated by
Southern traitors, have not forgotten nor
forgiven it. These same Southern traltois
am this same disloyal element, defeated
in an atrocious and bloody rebellion for
the dissolution of the Union, unrepentant
and revengcinl, are now seeking to come
back with the added power of two-fifths of
the freed slaves, as the basts of representa
tion, Into the Democratic party, with whom,
by nature aud animus and principle, they
affllatc, aud into the Democratic coaven
' tion with that iwo-U>Ld rale as its funda
mental law, that they may thus, by the aid
of the Northern allies of treason, control the
loyal Democratic majority, (tf each there be)
in every convention, and by the Ihrthcr aid
of party drill, be enabled again to misrule
the country they could not rum. Yet, Mr.
Vanßureneays the Democratic party needs
no reconstruction! We can tell him Id be
half of the thousands of War Democrats in
the country, that unless purged of its dis
loyal heretics, interpolated imo Its “time
htnored principles" at the bidding of slavery,
and “ kepokmep,” Ike the church at the
Reformation— heconktrccted—lt will re
main as U has been sloco the Chicago Con
vention, a stench in the nostrils of all loyal
Democrats. They are not ready to re-leaaa
with power, and strike bands in alliance
with hands redly reeking with the nation's
Ule blood, and again to degrade the Consti
tution and Declaration of independence into
a stereotyped lie, before the Democratic peo
ples of Christendom.
: hut Mr. Van Buteu, m Lis coquetry with
President Johnson, says: “Bo was no
party to the medd'fog with State institutions
and property that provoked, though it did
not excuse the rebellion."
If tiffs means that Andrew Johnson was
not, and is not committed la profession, and
principle, and honor, to all the policies on
this point, of the party that elected Mr.
Lincoln, and sustatnsd him In his administra
tion, it is disproved by the record.
Nor do we believe that he will ever need or
seek the apology for apostaey now made in
advance for him by the attempted seducers
of his Integrity.
But what was it that Mr. Van Baron Is
pleased to call “meddling with State InstUa
ti&us and property," and which he says
“provoked” the rebellion? Slavery had
clainud the right to carry negroes as beasts
of burden and “property," from any slave
State, Into any Territory of the United States,
and had seniinlo Kansas armed ruffians to
enforce that alleged constitutional right,
wi»h murder and rapine. As obsequious Su
preme Court Lad been induced to sanction,
by its dictum, the abominable heresy, and
to undertake by Judge made law, tosofun
dsmentally alter aud Interpolate the Consti
tution of our Fathers, as to make It the char
ter of slavery Instead of a free Constitution.
A great political party, in vindication of t*ie
Constitution, declared that it should not be
thus manipulated, corrupted and mlssoatrued
in the interest of the slave power, and
elected Mr.-Lincoln on that issue. This was
what “provokrd” the rebel ordinances
of'sccession, following immediately the de
claration of the result.
And this rightful and righteous repudiation
by a great people of a gross Judicial violation
of their fundamental law, not given to Judges
to Interpolate, corrupt or expurgate, Mr. Van
Buren has the modest- assurance to call
“ rreddliug with Bute institutions and prop
**l? will surprise no one that with such a
falslfi'-otlon of Iho truth of history on his pen,
Mr. Van Buren shoo'd repeat the stale twad
dle of New York wafd meetings, that M the
true deftnders of the country's honor
abroad and safety at home in war or peace
can only he (found In that great, powerful
and patriotic(Democraricl party,”*;. Be
fore ns close alliance and finally abject sub
in lesion to the slave power, this self-lauda
tion was simply not ridiculous. But does
Mr. Van Buren expect the old andbouest
numbers of the democratic party, or the
country at la’ge, to lonret that James Bu
chanan, of infamous memory, was a Demo
cratic President, defeating the patriotic
Douglas in the convention canvas* ? The
public memory Is yet keen to the way m
which he and his D;mocratlc cabinet “de
fended” “in peace” ‘‘the safely”
cf the country at home. They
have' not forgotten how rebellion
raised its arrogant front, io seven States of
this Union, abrogating the national laws,
seizing upon the lortlQcations and arsenals,
ttampling under foot acd insulting the
national flag; capturing Us armies and Its
revenue cutters.wnUe this Democratic ‘defend
er of the country’s honor and safe y” sat a
driveling ImbecLe or treacherous traitor,
shivering In the White House and unre
sistingly beholding the rnln and degredatlon
of his country—his Democratic CabiucVnean
while, themselves the arch conspirators of
treason.
Then what think yon, Mr. Van Bares, of
thcDemocralic party In grand convention at
Chicago, in the year of grace ISM as the
“defenders of tun honor and safety” of the
country “In war!” Assembled here In force,
from every balcony and rostrum, and In the
convention by resolution, under the lead of
Valland'gham and Cox, Washington Hunt
and Horatio Seymour,. It denounced the
further prosecution of the war—proclaimed it
a failure, and ala time ofimioentpcril to the
Government, gave its voice and influence to
paralyze the aim of power, and in aid
and com'ort to the rebels in arms. That
Convention will take Us place by the side of
the Hartford Convention, twin sisters In the
Infamy of disloyalty, and as a lasting s'.igma
nprn the Copperhead corruption of tbe once
patriotic Democratic party. The thousands
cf Democrats who, with the immortal Doug
las in hils last hours, rallied with patriotic
ardor to the defense of the - Government in
the bonr of its need, will insist upon a pur
gation and reconstruction. They will repudi
ate the new policy advocated by Mr. Van
• Boren, of an untrammclcd restoration to
equality and power of tbe secessionists ot the
South, and. the projected re-alllance : with
them of the Democratic party, with its con
sequent legislation to indorse and Indemnify
the rebellion and reinstate the enormities of
slavery. And we feel well agreed that all
such attempts to render rain the heroic sac
rifices of this war, and to force back Repub
lican civilization from Us present advanced
position, will In the end, come from whom
they may, meet with the sure reprobation of
the American people. __

SOUTHERN RAILROADS.
Columbus, Ky., Jn’y 3,13C3.
Editors Chicago Tribune:
- The sensible remarks on Southern rail
roads contained In your issue ol the Ist lost.,
should meet •witlx a hearty response from the
really loyal people end ■well-wishers of our
Government. The Mobile and Ohio railroad—
the northern terminus of which Is at this
point, and of which Mr. Milton Bropra, of
Jackssn, Tenn., is, or rather was. President
—has, with the exception of the extreme
northern portion, teen during the whole of
the war operated by that gentleman and bis
friends Sooth for the benefit of tbe Southern
Confederacy, and has been of very material
assistance In transporting their troops and
supplies. Tet it appears that the road has
been turned over south of the Tennessee line
to this identical Mr. Brown, who is how ope
rating it, and, besldesdolngalarge passenger
traffic, la making a nice thing of it out of
Uncle Samuel, in transporting his troops to
and fro over the road; and It Is alleged that
Gen. Thomas has ordered the remaining por
tion of the road through Tennessee and Ken
tucky to be turned over to the same com
nany. Now, if (as you say and we believe)
these roads are really confiscable. Is it not
strange that any General can give these roads
back to those who have used them as a for
midable weapon against onr Government ?
- The U. S. Military Railroads have done
good service for ns during the war, and as
troops will be stationed throughout the South
for some time to come, the Government, by
opening the roads, would save money, as the
traffic would be large, and they have all tbe
rolling stock to operate with, to say nothing
of transporting their own troops cheaper
than it can be done by others.
' The Mobile & Ohio River branch of the U.
B. hi. R. R-j la open south from this about
forty miles, and including transportation of
troops, is more than paying expenses al
re jwrite this in hopes that farther attention
may be called to this important subject, and
if tfcc roads are to bo tnmcd over, tbit they
may be turned over to loyal companies la*
stead of to qnoad&m rebels. '
Respectfully, \ 8.51.

THE QUESTION OF WAGES.
! - - ■ ■ LmKOTOS, HI., July 7,1865.
Editors Chicago Tribunes
In your issue of July Si, I notice an edito
rial under the heading of, An Easy Settlement;
in it yon call upon the mechanics and labor
ing men of this country to take notice, that
the cause of our prescntnational troubles lies
in the fact, that a certain set of men want
another set of men to work for them, for less
than is right and Just, and then say that this
question of the wages of labor lies at the
very foundation of American society and
American politics, and therefore, till the ques
tion is permanently settled In relation to
wages, there can beno permanent peace any
where. The • reading of that little editorial
has done me good. To every word In it I say,
amen and amm. ■ I am a laboring man, one of
the humblest class, being a well digger, and
feeling that In. your appeal to laboring men,
yon have’appealed to me, for lam one. Now
then, shall the laboring men and mechanics
and even hod-carriers end well-diggers have a
uttJo bit of space Inyonr Tribune, to dis
cuss among themselves thlsquestlmof labor,
of how shall its jnst reward be universally
and perpetually secured? If you will, in
connection with those other journals of the
country, which seem to he anxious In rela

your columns so that the laborers oJ all
grades can take this question In band, anoth

will be forever pat at rest in this country at

EXPRESS RECEIPTS.'
Qciacr, July 7,1305.
Editors Cbicigo Tribune:
I saw au extract from a Woodstock paper
in years a lew days ago, which docs not do
justice to the American Express Company.
It said that the company had not acted
fairly by the public, by not notifying them
that this stamping. was necessary. Now,
first, 1 thought It was generally known that
ignorance of thelaw was no excuse. Every
man Is supposed to know the laws of his
country. But In this instance I know well
that here the public were notified by the de
livery clerk months ago, and 6*me of oar
fiims here have stamped the book ever since,
and I presume the tame may be said of Wood
stock ; and what Is more, that Mr. J. IL
Dojfce, who was agent here up to the Ist cf
May (and who was one of the gentlemen
fined,) knows It, too, and that well; But
more than this: when tbe last excitement
took place, the clerks In the Quincy office, to
save the public, took tbe boobs (15) and
worked at them every night for one week,
Sunday and all, besides their regular work,
und then undertook to collect from our mer
chants pay for the stamps and a email charge
for the risk and trouble saved. Now, sir,
there are men here in large business whose
fines would have cost them a pile, who won’t
even pay/or stamps. What do yon think of
that? The American Express Company and
all connected with it have done all they can,
but they hove not the power to make the
public put on the stamps. So nlease. In jus
tice to them, publish this. Yours, Ac.,

TOE GREAT FAIRS.
Foau do Lac, Wla., July 4,15G5.
Editors Chicago Tribune;
Allow one who Is interested In the sufferers
by the laic war, to suggest to those who
have tbe disposal of the funds gathered by
the Chicago and Milwaukee Fairs the query:
Whether more good could not be effected
with such funds, to the sufferers Inthlswar,
by using the money otherwise than la laying
up an expensive pile of stone and mortar to
be enjoyed by a very few, and that few soon
to pass away? it Ir my impression that very
few would avail themselves for any length of
time of the “Soldiers* Home.” In Illinois
and Wisconsin the mass of the soldiery camo
from farm homes, where friends are eager
ly waiting for the returning one, and
gladly will they minister to him If wound
ed; and If a few go* to these
expensively built piles of stone and mortar.
In u few ycats these few will have passed
away, and the brick and mortar piles be with
cut a soldier Inhabitant.
Now my Idea is that If there be in onrtwo
Slates, soldiers who need a home for lack of
one of tbclr own. much better would it be to
hire some building already to be found in
Chicago and Milwaukee, with little outlay ol
funds, and spend the balance of the funds to
help the widows, and feed and clothe and
educate tbe orphans.
These thoughts I soggestto the thongh'ful
consideration of those who have the funds
collected, at their disposal.

TSE SUFFRAGE QUESTION.
N*wabu,lU., Jaiy3,1863.
Editors Chicago Tribune; •
In this section of the country many of os
believe that the President has the right to
appoint a Provla’onal Governor, but no right
to clothe the rebels and traitors with the'
elective franchise, or to deprive the loyal,
blacks of the greatest of their newly ac
quired and well earned rights of citizenship.
Why will the Prealdant—a man not made
President so much by the votes of the pco.
pie, as by the traitor bullet of an assassin—
persist In assuming so much authority? Why
docs he not summon Coucress, to deliberate
upon the difficulties of the times ? What do
we need a Congress for, if the weightiest
matters of the nation arc to be decided by an
Executive? Does not President Johnson
know that his provisional proclamations con
.tains a legislation that will have more to do
in shaping the destiny of the nation, than ail
that our constitutional Congress has done in
the last four years? Surely he roust. Now,
it ever. Congress should meet. What do you
think of the plan of getting up petitions ail
over the country, demanding of oar new
made President tuat he shall not assume to
himself all the powers of the Government,
but that he immediately convene a spec T ai
session of Congress, to enact into law the
: voice of the people on the great milters that
now dan and a settlement? If you favor the
plan, remark upon It, and give us a form of
•petition, that there may be a union and uui
jotmity of action.

THE WAR. 1
Editors Chicago Tribune:
The recent terrible crisis -which the United
States has survived, has to a great extent de
veloped the genuine characters oi the nations
ofwhichtbe American Republic la composed,
insomuch that sympathy with the Govern
ment, enmity to treason, and hatred of trai
tors who have so recently aimed at the vital
ity of the Union, elevates an individual or a
nation of such a character to the honorable
position of loyaU’j and Christianity, whilst'
aid in words or deeds to the late gigantic rc-J
hellion, partiality to Southern fire-eaters, and 1
consolation to each hell-deserving villains as
Forrest, Jeff. Davis & Co., brands each per
son or nation with the abominable character'
.of polluted traitors and co-workers In the de-,
stmctlon of the Union. - ;
The scarcity ofthe Welsh. In the United.
States■ has -prevented them, from having b!
conspicuous character as the defenders of tbe
“Old Flag.” They were not selfish enough,
|n the beginning of the war to make an effort
to constitute a brigade, or a rectment,
thoroughly Welch, to sustain the
Union, and whilst their ' leaders
were agitating.;- such a movement,
the young heroes of the nation rushed in
trepidly to the salvation of their adopted and
beloved country, and the blood of hundreds
of them has consecrated the altarof Freedom.
Their heroism and bravery Is*-to be "deter
mined by the promotions of many of them,
from company ofUcers'to Majors, Colonels
and Generals, in the Union army'.
Politically, the Welsh are almost unani
mously Republicans, in met they are religi
ously dictated to such principles ;-of the-To,-
000 Welsh voters in the United States, 00 per
cent of them vote the Republican ticket.
In Wisconsin there are about 9,000 Welsh,
-voters,-so the victory of the-Unlon ticket de
pends wholly on .them. -
The only' Welsh newspaper printed* this ■
side of the Atlantic, Is issued at Utica. Ni T.,
it ia called, the .Prj*A,.wh!ch signifies -dfTrror/.
-this Is a sound Union sheet, and most ably
edited by J. Wm. Jones, Esq.., of the same
place. It is independent in all things, but
wholly devoted to the Unionof the States and
freedom to all mankind, without distinction
to either race orcblpr.
Please allow me to-insinuatehere to the
Chicago merchants that by advertising In
the JDrych tbey will secure the patronage of
the Wo ch merchants in the great West. In
consideration of the loregoing facts I claim
them to be a national honor and prldc.to the
Welch.
Only look at the Irish of this country.
After fleeing from their native country to
avoid the oppression of-Britlsh aristocracy,
and arriving oere to enjoy liberty to tbom
eelYta and their descenaents, yet they have
bound themselves soul and body to defend,
to sustain and abet, In their votes and senti
ments, the most damnable, atrocious and
fearful oppression that ever polluted our
planet with Us heaven-cursed and diabolical
principles, to-wit: Southern slavery. They
have been the leaders of the New York riot,
they have harbored traitors and deserters, in
fact they have disgraced the Union with the
manifestation of their treacherous designs.
Pretending to be Democrats, they were a
packofrebelliousmobocrats. Pretending to
be Catholic injprlnciplcs when they were an
ignorant set of fanatical secessionists. Such,
-we publicly assert,ls the general character of
the Irish nation in America. Bat of course
there arc most worthy and honorable ex
ceptions,but they are, individually, the Sheri
dans, Mulligans, Corcorans, etc., etc., bat
the foiegoing unrefutable assertions refer to
the Irish as a nation.
The most prominent men of the Welsh can
boast of their Union sentiments. We will
mention ex-Govemor Bebb, of Ohio; Gen.
Thomas, who Is of Welsh descent; and the
Vaughans, Owens, Jones, etc., etc.. They
have bravely Instanced to exchange the
stars andstrlpesfrombeinga “ flaunting lie”
to be the true cmblemoflibertyandfreedom.
ilay that glorious banner forever wave
on wings of the gentle breeze, embracing
within its folds, liberty to all mankind and

For mote than a week It has been known

Wt h tve been Infornud by members of the
Thi.d Illinois, now at Fort Snelllng. that
within the space of onc.weck, since they were
paid efi, that over two hundred of their men
bad deserted;. The reason assumed is that
tbc men haying eulistcncd “for three years or
duilng the war,” consider the war over, and
claim that they should have been discharged.
In place cf being marched to the plains in
ecaicb of the' Sioux Indians.
A soldier of the Third Illinois, attempted
to swim the Minnesota river, it is supposed
with the Intention to desert, aud was drown

We did not ascertain his name.
[From the Bt. Pan! Press, 7th.}
This regiment leit Fort Snelling on Tues

and having done justice to the occasion, they
proceeded on their way rejoicing. They go

Oil Intelligence.
The Piltfbarch Pdrdrum Times says the:
production of oil on Pitholo Creek from Tinr 1
wells Is about two thousand*barrcls per day. /
There Is a perfect blaze of excitement all
along the Creek, speculation In territory near
the great wells Is ranging, and a bonus vary
ing from $1,500 to $3,000 per acre Is readily
obtained. Oil stocks based on Pitbole terri
tory are the favoritrs, while those on Oil
Creek and Cherry Run are depressed to a
cei tain extent by reason of the great produc
tion on Pithole. 4 . , „
In the same journal we find a list of 108
Pittsburgh Oil Cos., of which 15 have declared
dividends since the Ist of November last, as
follows: In Novembers companies i Decem

—A gcntleman.who has just returned from
the oil region near Bothwell, C. W., has fur
nished ns with stmo interesting items rela
tive to that greasy Ei Dorado. About seven
ty.five wells are now in progress In that vi
cinity. with the most encouraging prospects.
The Pepper well has “struck,” a pump of
poor quality was put down on Tuesday, and
on Wednesoay twenty-five barrels of oil were
pumped up. With good machinery It would
undoubtedly prove a fifty barrel well. At
the Lick well, the common average Is forty
barrelspcr diem. The Victoria and Colwell
wells yield about twenty barrels per diem.
Tbe Wilcox well is also productive, but is at
present undergoing repairs. The bustle in
ibat vicinity Is very great at present, and
business ability and capita! Is pouring In
very rapidly, ‘ihe town of Bothwell Is rapid
ly growing under these favorable influences.
■ —The Niagara Falls Gazette says: “We
lewn that the well which was being put
-down on the Collins farm—under the moun
tain range near Dlckersonvlße, Niagara coun
ty, and about one and a half miles northwest
from Pekin—commenced blowing oil and
water quite freely on Saturday. Of course
striking oil makes quitcanexcitementamong
our friends in that neighborhood. Arrange
ments are making to tube the well, which is
oversevenhundredfeetdeep. . .
—Mr. L. n. Sweet, who has been boring
for oil near Conner’s Creek, near Detroit,
Mich., writes that he has found briny water

• The Funk on well, at Port Huron, Mich.,
Is down 820 feet. The last 220 feet consists
of alternate strata of soapstone and shale.
They are now at work in the fourth layer of
Kiiflle. This substance emits a strong petro
leum odor, and when placed in an iron retort
produces petroleum. The Gratiot Company s
well is also now progressing finely, it is
down 240 feet. The geological fonnatlons
arc precisely the same as Iboaefoandlntht.
most productive oil regions ol Pennsylvania.
A letter from Parkersburg savs a Fh'Udel
phla company, June 23d, struck a well near
the California house, which well is now
yielding seventy-five barrels perdoy.A far
better vield is afforded by a new well at

The Blood Hound Brigade at St. Pant
[Correspondence of tbs Chicago Tribune,]
St. Paun, July 7,1565.--
I suppose Eastern philanthropises will
.stand aghast'as they read that the first in*:
stalment of blood hounds for the purpose of
huntinglndlans, (If any should 'venture near
the' settlements) have reached this city.-
Captain Potter, of the lllh regiment, brought
up a rack of six from Tennessee, and will
take them to Blue Earth comity next week.
The defeat of the rebels has lowered the
price of kanlnes, as is evinced by the fact.,
that for the entire pack, (blooded stock):
Capta'n Potter paid only SOS. They were
dog-cheap at that price. Colonel Evans, who
Tf«mt South for (jioodhousdv,.hM found .the
Tennessee stock exhausted, and la now in
'Mississippi making purchases. The “noble
; savage” had better climb a tree, or resort to
some other method to leave title world, when
the dogs come around; * V .
The Eleventh regiment came home yester
day. They were welcomed, home by the Gov
ernor and Ujjor, and given a dinner at the
capitoL They have been mns‘cred out, and
are only awaiting their pay before disband
ing. Tbey speak in the highest terms of the
reception they received in Chicago. Captain
Fisk Is here organizing his expedition.
The river rose ten inches at this point yes
terday. ThcMmncsola rvver.wcut up eight
inches, and Is still rising.
The sapper teudered-to Senator Hendricks,
took place at the International last evening,
and was a fine affair.

Discovery of a Valuable Rlirble Qnar
>y la tank County, Wli.
[From the Madison Dally CapUol.J
Wc learn that one of the most valuable
quarries of marble in the country . has been
recently opened in Sank county. The mar
ble is pure carbonate of lime, without any
other mixture. It la a snowy white, and
lakes a remarkably lustrous polish. Speci
mens that we baye seen indicate. that the
products of this quarry arc,superior to many
of the Vermont marbles,-and equal to the
best. It constantly improves as the various
strata are opened, and a greater depth from
the surface is. reached, and blocks are'now
get out four and five feet in thickness. Some
years since a block was procured from this
quarry, and dressed for the Washington
monument. But it was taken from where
ihe ledge cropped out, and showed none of
the pure beauty of that quarried out at
greater depths; The people about, In getting
it'out to .bum for lime, reached some ot this
superior quality.
It la singular that thU immense bed of
wealth should have lain there so long with,
out a suspicion In any mind of its existence.
The quantity there Is sufficient to supply the
whole wants of the Mississippi Valley. Our
marble workers and builders aro now using
it, nnda company has been formed to wo:k
the quarry and get the marble oat for ex

Illegal Seizure of Alcohol by Govern
ment Officer*.
( [rromlbePeoriaTran3crlpt,7lh.s -
Some time In April Messrs. Martin «fc East
man. distillers of this city, made ft shipment
of 111 barrels of alcohol, in bond, to the!"
consignees in Boston. The necessary bond
for double the amount of tax was' filed with
the Collector here, and the same approved
and accepted, and the necessary permits
gionted according to the law made and pro
vided. After the alcohol bad been loaded on
the cars the bill of lading was sent forward,
and the whole shipment was sold for export
at 05 cents per gallon, to arrive within thirty
days.- Upon the arrival of the spirits at Bafc
frio, en rente to its destination, they were'
seized by an“officious” U.B. officlaland
thrown Into a bonded warehouse, and no no
tice whatever .given to consignors or .con
signees. Consequence . was, the time for de
livery expired ; no alcohol appeared ; price
went down, and contract was repudiated.
Time roiled on, and’atill the shipment was
“rehind time.” Search was instituted and
Saturday morning a communication was re
ceived disclosing the above . facts. Bonded
alcohol Is to-day worth only about forty-one
cents per gallon, a clear loss to the firm ol
flftv-ft nrcenta per gallon. equaling nearly
t v rcc thousand dollars. .The question is.who
should Euffer the loss? ’Messrs. Martin &
Eastman compl ed with the Ict’er of the law,
and were trying to do an ihonest. legitimate
business, That tbe u officia\ n who made the
st izure, : gained a notoriety as a
“sharp detective,” is very probable. But it
seems to ns U Government approved of bis
official acts, It Is no-more than right that
Uncle Sam should compensate tbs firm to
tbo amount of actual loss sustained by this
unnecessary detention. This will moat like
ly be a “nut” for the lawyers to cia^h.
Two IQi’o Kill'd by a Woman,
Brothel life was illustrated at Philadelphia
one night lost week in a most shocking man
ner. The parties were Adeline Beld, keeper
of a brothel, and Joseph and Isaac Sides,
keepers of another brothel. Adeline’s hus
band was keeping still a third brothel in part
nership with Joseph Sides’ wife: and Ade
line, It would appear, expected to find her
delinquent lord at Sides* 1 place. . Calling
there she seized Joseph, and with an oath
Blunged a knife twice Into his back, under
ic left side, piercing tbe heart. Side stag
gered, seized a chair, with the Intention, It is
supposed, of defending himself, and raising
it about-three feet fell dead. The brother
Issac then came to the resene, and caught
her by the back of the bead. Intending to
push her upon her face, and thus d airm her.
He reckoned without his host.. She girl, or
woman, was nerved to strength beyond that
of her sex. iHe failed to seize her band In
which sbe held the. gory knife. On the con
tiary, sbe turned upon him, and giving
thrust after thrnst with the rapidity of
electric flashes, spilled out his viscera
upon the gronnd. .He died shortly after
wards. The murderess ran preclpbately from
the house, to her own home, where she had
clothed herself In sailors garb when tbe po
lice came upon her.

The week opens with Increased activity in man.
clary circles/ and the demands upon the banks
have been quite large to-day. This demand wis,
inspired by tbe advance in wheat, at the opening
which aroused a little of the latent speculative
feeling among operators. The advance In wheat
atone tome reached abont Be per bushel, bnt to
wards the close the market grew weaker, and tbe
upper figure could not be maintained. From other
sources the calls for money are moderate, and
generally readily recognized. Bat few of the
bankers, however, are disposed to encourage any
wfldccfa on the part of operators In oroduce, pre
ferring to allow their currency to remain In the
vaults.
Exchange is do*er to-day than dnrlce tbs last
half of last week. It was rendered rather weak
during that period by being to ft certain degree
forced upon the market by"certain National Oa&ka,
who were obliged to realize to meet the'demands
spon them from Government paymasters, agera-,
gating several bandied tboosand dollars. That
necessity la-now over, and hence, with an active
demand, the increased business m the market to-:
day. "At the opening, bankers were enabled to'
supply themselves at about fifty can's off, bat
