KCMBER ONE. ;
Certaiu eternal principles underlie ev
ery Kef arm, and must, in time, insure a
perfect victory. Progress can never be
come Retrogression. like the viewless
force, before which fell the walls "of the
ancient city, the mighty power of truth
will, in the end, overthrow the barriers
built to stop its onward march. To
doubt this is to doubt the ages that have
gone before to believe it is simply to
accept acknowledged facts. . i .a,
Reform is but a synonym for Progress
and Progress Is a superstructure with
af ira rVuiniuHnn . Tint tiiA su
perstructure is finite the foundation In
finite. The one ia from the beginning a
result, appointed by Omnipotence.etodur
ing, consistent, resistless the other
only an imperfect means by which to
accomplish the end, appointed by
Impotence, changing, uncertain and
weak through human frailty. Hence
arise misconceptions, errors and delays.
Thus the advancement of a cause is
oftentimes retarded through the inade
quacy of the means adopted. .
"Why this Is so we do not know. Why
Infinite Wisdom has entrusted to man
weak and erring the task of advancing
these mighty principles, is a problem
past our powers to solve. We can sim
ply accept it is true. So, although Pro
gress, through the power of that Omni
potence of which it Is a part, can never
be entirely stopped, yet the Agency em
ployed by Wisdom may and often does
in the furtherance, perhaps, of some be
niflcent purpose whose very magnitude
renders it invisible for a time, clog and
obstruct the advance of the cause. ' '
Wisdom differs from Folly in that it
possesses the ability to profit by ex
perience. Years of labor, expended in
the prosecution of a Reform without ad
vancing, perceptably its interests, force
upon us one of two conclusions. Either
the work has not for its corner-stone the
everlasting, far-reaching, all-comprehensive
principles, without which there can
be no Reform, no Progress, or else the
means adopted have been inadequate to
the end desired.
The subject of Temperance has become
an hackneyed one. For half a century
has the crusade under its banners been !
waged continuous but not persistant.
Preachers, Lecturers, Philanthropists
have exhausted their powers, In the vain
attempt to check the growth of In
temperance. Our Pulpits, Rostrums and
Legislative Halls, have each, in turn,
echoed with argument, entreaty, denun
ciation and penal threats, but to no avail.
Despite the efforts of fifty years, the vice
of Drink still flaunts its banners and
swaggers with its brazen front as boldly
and us strongly as at any time before. It
may seem a bold assertion but it is never
theless a true one and statistics prove it,
that throughout our country .'Intemper
ance is increasing instead of diminishing.
There have been pledges) secret societies,
organizations of various kinds, laws,
prohibition edicts, and in short, devices
of almost every description, put forth to
war against the Evil but all have been
found to abound in weakness when most
they needed strength, vacillating when
they needed decision, full 'Of; hesitation
when promptness alone could be of ser
vice, uncertain where doubt was Death,
and inadequate in all respects to cope
with their gigantic adversary.
Which of these two conclusions is the
correct solution of this? Is the Temper.
ance movement a fraud, a myth, em
bodying no Reform, no Progress, or are
the means, which have hitherto been re
sorted to, mistaken ones and' lacking in
the elements of success? mature, expe
rience, observation, our own innate con
sciousness, all tell us in language too
plain to be mistaken, that in the cause of
. Temperance is embodied a great Ketorm ;
and that underneath the movement itself
lie the great unchanging eternal prin
ciples of Truth. Reason then Is forced to
declare that the machinery ; which has
hitherto been devised to do the work and
to advance the cause has been ' defective
and full of imperfections. ' 1
It is not intended to be asserted that
all the agitation which this subject has
received, has been of no benefit. Con
centrated drinking produces individual
drunkenness. This is not quite so com
mon as formerly. Public opinion has
been so far educated that it is not aa fre
quent an occurrence to see men lost to
reason, to shame and often to decency as
it was half a century since. But the
vice has become diffused. There are
fewer drunkards but there is more liquor
drank. The reason is that there art
more persons who drink moderately,
Another generation will serve to ripen
into a terrible harvest the seed
that is thus being sown; even
if the fearful results are not
perceptable now. But the agencies em
nloved have been productive of so little
good, comparatively speaking, that it
must be asserted they are insufficient to
accomplish that wMch it was expected
they would. With their results placed
side by side with their promises they
have proven failures. They have been
tried in the balance and found wanting.
It needs no argument to prove this.
We know it as we know that we exist
and have our being. The cause of Tem
perance is practically at a stand-still. But
for the rock upon which the movement
is founded Retrogression would Inevita
bly have followed Stagnation. This is
not from lack of interest it is not from
lack of zeal it is not from lack of wil
lingness to work, on the .part of those
who may be called the promoters of the
movement. But mistaken zeal incon
sistent advocates half digested schemes
imperfect plans in short a general in
competency in the- means chosen to
further the cause have succeeded in doing
more to retard the progress of this one Re
form than all the wiles and plots of its
adversaries.
Excoriation can never take the 'place
of amputation. To eradicate an evil you
must strike to the root from which it
draws its life's blood. Half measures
are nothing more than no measures at
all nay they are worse, for , they are
productive of evil. And in this lies the
answer to the question, "Why Temper
ance had not been a greater , success ?'
All measures heretofore adopted have
lacked comprehensiveness, completeness
depth and force. Intemperance is found
ed on a virtue. A human characteristic
lies at its feet-a characteristic, broad
and wide-spread as the human race
itself and as God-given as the immortal
spirit of which It is a part. The inabil
ity to recognize this and to act upon the
recognition has been the prolific cause of
.failures and disappointments. When
this shall have come to be seen and ac
knowledged, then will advancement take
the place of stagnation.
Now come the questions "What is
that virtue upon which vice can rest
and the failure to see which has resulted
in failure, partial If not complete?" and
"How can the mistakes of the post be
avoided in the future?"
A Katianal Art 3Iasenut.
At various tames the New Yorkers have
agitated the question of establishing an
Art Museum in that city which should
be a national institution. - The projects
which have been brought forward for
this "objeet-have-been as varied as the
authors who originated them have been
numerous. In thejlast number of Scrib-
ner there is an article upon this subject,
from which we quote somewhat at length,
inasmuch as the designs there advanced
are by our old-time townsman Win. H.
Beard. The article is from the pen of
Ji-B-iO-i Hats&ni, and after giving a de
tailed account of the various schemes
that - have been . proposed, goes on to
say:' - -
We are beginning already to realize
how much, tits Ontral Park haa done for
us, and to appreciate the importance of
the arts and elegances of lite, judged
even from the low stand-point of the
vulgar money-getter.-- When, therefore,
it was recently proposed to found in this
city a great Museum of Art, which
should hold ' at least as high a place
among the public gardens of modern
times, the project was soon recognized as
practical. ...
rne foundation or. such a worn is not
often the realization of any one man's
scheme. It is the fruit of much general
preparation, and often of some crude ex
periment; and the historian of art may
deem himself fortunate if, in awarding
the glory for snch an enterprise, he be
not called upon to decide the conflicting
claims of several independent founders.
Perhaps when the metropolitan Museum
of Art shall have taken its rank among
the great galleries, we may puzzle our
selves with vain efforts to determine
whose enthusiasm save it the first im
pulse, -and- whose -intelligence presided
over its plan. - The public is satisfied now
with knowing that the scheme came to
lisrht at a- meeting ' of the Union Leacme
Club, early in 1809, and was matured by
committee of mat body, embracing sev
eral well-knowa artists and gentlemen
prominent in other walks ot - lire. A
committee of fifty eminent citizens was
chosen to draw up a scheme of organization.-
And finally, on the 31st of Jan
uary, 1870, the "General Committee of
the Metropolitan Museum of Art" was
organized, with John Taylor Johnston
for President, and a long list of other
officers, representing the best culture of
New York. The Committee was after
wards enlarged. A sub-committee was
charged With the practical management;
there were numerous meetings and con
sulations; a great deal was done by the
personal efforts and solicitations of the
gentlemen most deeply interested in the
project ; and so in a few months the work
was tairly in hand.- ..
ihe subscription list grew longer and
faster than even the most ardent friends
of the Museum expected. Already the
contributions from this source amount to
about $250,000, and when the Committee
went to Albany with a request that the
Legislature would now vote some of the
people's money for what was so clearly
means or popular education, they could
show that private munificence had done
its full share. The result was one of the
most magnificent appropriations ever
made at one time for the encouragement
or art, we do not say by an American
legislature, but by any government in
the world. Half a million : of dollars
wag set apart for the erection of the Mu
seum building, with the condition that
the expenditure should be under the
control of the Department of Public
Parks.
But while one party of artists and con
noisseurs has made so much progress,
another has been working towards the
same end with very fair prospects of
success, making no public appeals, but
getting the co-operation of liberal pa
trons of art, and looking after certain
collections which may be bought when
the proper times comes. Mr. Albert
Bierstadt is one of the chief leaders in
this movement; Mr. William H. Beard
is another. Mr. Beard, however, seems
to have been the first in the field, and
some important parts of his scheme for a
museum were puff upon paper long be
fore the meeting at the Union League
Club, whose results we have- just been
tracing. Several years ago the late Mr.
uenry Keep purposed devoting some of
his wealth to the foundation of an Art
Gallery, and it was for him that Mr.
Heard nrsCsketched the remarkable plans
which we have chosen to illustrate this
article. Entering heartily into the views
and aspirations of his friend Bierstadt,
he has since completed the rough
draughts of the Keep Museum, and laid
them . before the . enthusiastic coterie
which, without State help, or even rec
ognition, is laboring so earnestly for the
aesthetic culture of the people. Let us
say at once, however, that between the
Metropolitan Museum Committee and the
leaders of . what,' for want of a better
name, we may call the Beard movement
there is no hostile rivalry. They origin
ated independently and thus far have
worked independently, but there is no
reasou whjr they should not come to
gether after a while and unite their ef
forts for a common cause. Neither has
yet developed its plans in full, and it
may be found that both are tending
towards precisely the same objects by
nearly the same road. . -,' i "
ihe essential features of Mr. Beard's
design is the underground approach, and
now closely that accommodates itself to
the scheme of a Museum on Manhattan
Square we need not pause to explain.
In one of the views which we have en
graved, the elevation of a building is
seen in the background, but this is a
mere fancy sketch, added bv the artist to
show the relation of the gallery and its
approacnes, and not intended as an arch
itectural plan. ' Let us assume that Mr.
ueard's suggestions are adopted bv the
Committee, . The assumption we know
is perfectly gratuitous, for the Committee
has not even- considered the drawings,
and only two or three . of its- members
have seen them ; but for the sake of con
venience', we take their adoption for
granted. Entering the Museum from
the Park, we find, somewhere near the
flight Avenue wall, the opening of a
wide aud well-ventilated tunnel. Vines
and slirubbery hang over the arched en
trance. ' On either side stands a colossal
stone figure : Ignorance, with threaten
ing aspect, and Superstition, with re
pulsive mien, barring the avenue to aes
thetic culture. ' Passing these grim gi
ants, we find ourselves in an irregular
and slightly tortuous subterranean
roadway, with rough-hewn rock sides
not a mere straight ffallerv. for Mr.
Beard borrowed the idea from neither a
railway tunnel nor a prim arcade. In
the obscurity of this passage, gvmbolical
of the rudfe origin of art, huge carven
iorms or beasts glare upon us trom the
shelving rock. , The whole way is lined
with figures: typical of the difficulties to
be overcome before the student enters
into the real enjoyment comprehension
of the beautiful. In the distance is seen
light ante-chamber, where another
colossal figure, a benign old man, who
may represent perhaps the guardian gen
ius oi xne piace, sirs py a staircase, sur
rounded' with fragments of ancient ar
mor. The recumbent image of a naked
youth looks upon him from above, and
strange animals crouch upon the rock bv
his slue. Here the visitor finds himself
at the portals of Art. The winding
steps at the back of the old man lead to
an elevated gallery of statues, effigies
possible of the famous characters of re
cent times. A tablet of stone bears the
name of the founders of the Museum,
ana beneath it times lies sleeping a del
icate intimation of the immortality of
lame wnicn win rewara the , gitt or a
thousand dollars or so to the Museum
various passage-ways branch off from
the room. One, guarded by grotesque
antediluvian animals of immense size.
leads out to the open air, and through it
there gleams a vista of trim lawns and
and waving trees. Another mounts by
broken fights of steps to galleries of
sculpture, and so into the Museum
proper.
Mr. Beard, it will be seen, has turned
to account, in this design, Ids well-known
taste and skill as a delineator of animal
life, but it is not for these curious forms
alone that his work has interest and
value. It solves the problem of the subr
terranean entrance, which is not a mere
freak, but a matter of convenience. It is
almost essential that an entrance should
be provided trom the Park, and it can
only be done by a pathway underground
Mr. Beard shows how this jwissnge can
be made an important adjunct to the
Museum quite as good in its way as
any department of the building to which
it leads, it will suit any style pi arclib
tecture, any arrangement of the collec
tions, and any kind of ground, for the
necessary rock can of course be had
elsewhere, if nature has not put it where
it is wanted. Mr. Beard - lias also oil-
served the historical order of the arts.
Architecture, indeed, is the earliest of
all, but it is to the- Museum building it
self that we must look for our only spec
imen of that art. sculpture eomes next,
and our desismer meets us at. the very
threshold with specimens f the suc
cessive school, from the representation
of natural objects up to the realization of
ideal - forms.- and the emootmueat in
marble of the purest poetic conceptions.
From sculpture we pass on to painting
and to the minor arte of design, such as
pottery, mosaic, ornamental work in
metals and textile fabrics, and the many
other branches that must be embraced in
any great art collection. :
- But whether this peculiar -: scheme be
followed or not, the Museum is soon to
be built, and the work of collection will
quickly follow, nay, In an indirect way,
has already begun. If a loan exhibition
should be decided upon, private collect
ors will be urged to lend then- treasures
for a few months, and dealers will doubt
less contribute somethings, with the. un
derstanding that they may be removed
if they find a purchaser. A sub-eom-mittee
reported some time ago in favor
of such an exhibition, and a little in
quiry proved that the value and number
of works of art in the country which
would probably be available for such a
purpose were unexpectedly great. There
are rich collections of paintings, both
ancient and modern ; there are collections
of rare engravings, of fine old wood
carvings, of engraved gems and enamels,
of porcelain, of tapestries, of oriental
art; and there are some excellent sculp
tures. Enough of these might be brought
together, not indeed to form a complete
historical museum of art, but at least to
make a deeply interesting exhibition,
and to give a fresh stimulus to the public
desire for a grant permanent gallery.
The country is ripe for it, and we have
no hestitation in predicting that all the
money which may be wanted can easily
be obtained.

During the week just passed the pa
pers of the State have been filled with
accounts of the great murder trial which
is now progressing at Akron. - :
The following resume of the facts of the
case we clip from the Beacon : "It will
be remembered that, on the evening of
May 27th, Mrs. Elizabeth Gargets, re
siding in Richfield township,. Summit
county, was shot dead in her own house:
her husband, Robert Gargett, fatally, and
a son,' Rodney Gargett, seriously, woun
ded by one John H. Hunter, of Elm
Hall, ' Michigan. The causes which led
to this sad affair briefly are these : Some
time since, by reason of a photograph in
the possession of a sister residing at Elm
Hall, Chloe Gargett, daughter of the de
ceased, made the acquaintance of this
man, Hunter. A correspondence was
opened between the parties, and Hunter
soon became the acknowledged suitor of
the young lady. Thus matters went on
for a considerable period of time, Hunter
meanwhile having visited Miss G. at her
home, and having been received" with
marks of cordiality and esteem. But re
ports coming to her through a sister-in-law
living in Elm Hall, somewhat de-1
rogatory to the character of Hunter, a
coolness ensued resulting in their final
alienation. Such was the state of affairs 1
when. In May last. Hunter left Elm Hall
and came to Richfield, with the avowed
purpose of seeing Chloe or 'cleaning the
whole ramiry out.' Arriving at Rich
field on Saturday, May 27th, he met Rod
ney Gargett and rode home with him.
Here he was met by the old man, Robert
Gargett, of whom he asked the privilege
of seeing Chloe, but was refused and or
dered to leave the premises. Desperate
with anger, he suddenly drew a revolver,
fired, and the old gentleman dropped.
mortally wounded. - Hunter then dashed
into the house, but had not proceeded
rar ere he was conlronted oy Mrs. Uar
gett. Quick as a flash he raised his re
volver, fired two shots and at the second
Mrs. G. fell dead at his ' feet. In the
mean time Rodney had rushed to the res
cue and intercepted the murderer just af
ter he had fired the last fatal shot. A
brief struggle ensued, another shot was
fired, and Rodney received a painful,
though not dangerous wound. While
all this was going on, Chloe, who was up
stairs, jumped from a second story win
dow and escaped to the house of a neigh
bor. The murderer finding himself foil
ed in his attempts to see the young lady,
went back into the yard where a group
of excited neighbors had gathered.
While parleying with some of them he
was, at the proper moment, seized, se
curely bound and at once conveyed to
Richfield. 1 A preliminary examination
was held, and on the same night he was
brought to Akron and lodged in jail.
The Grand Jnry being then in session,
three indicments were presented against
Hunter two for the murder of Mr. and
Mrs. Gargett and one for assault and bat
tery upon Rodney Gargett,: to all of
which the' prisoner plead 'not guilty.'
The trial was commenced on the; 17th
and is now in progress. - Of course at
the present time it is impossible to state
what will be the final end. Hunter has
attempted to use as a defense the some
what played out pretense of insanity.
The other morning as he 1 was being
brought into court, and while in the yard,
he broke from the Sheriff and began to
rave and swear and throw dirt. The
Sheriff held him and brought him into
court, where he continued raving- and
cursing, saying that they were : all alike
to him, that he had them under his con
trol and would do as he d d. pleased,
&c. It took three men" to hold him.
Judge McClure talked to him and he be
came quiet. '.- " i. . .,.;,(

The St. Joseph Gazette of a late date
learns from William MacMoore the par
ticulars of the capture of a train by the
Indians, about thirty miles from Fort
Sill, June 25th, The train consisted of
fourteen wagons with fourteen men who
were attached to it. " : -
Oh the day mentioned while crossing
a small stream, about two hundred and
fifty Cheyenne Indians dashed out of
the woods on both sides of the stream,
shot and killed seven of the party on the
spoi, ana wounaea another, who --was
tomahawked and scalped, and took the
remainder prisoners. The next day one
or the party attempted to escape and was
killed. On the following evening two
of the teamsters, Jack Jones and Thomas
Hayward were burned at the stake by
slow torture, their tongues being first
cut out to prevent their screaming, and
meir ears cm on. i-ne entire Dana or
Indians formed a circle around their
victims and indulged in various modes
of tormenting them, and MacMoore.

A dispatch from St. Louts dated an tt
2in says mat on tne evening oeiore a
terrible FAi!nmI accident occurred pnthe
Toledo and Wabash railroad, sixteen
miles from that city, and two miles from
Edwardsville. Illinois. A freight train
of thirty cars, heavily laden with grain,
going south at a great speed, collided
with a gravel train, on which were a
number of laborers returning home from
their work, of whom six were killed out
right, and four others so severely injured
that but little hopes--are entertained of
their recovery. Of the men on the con
struction train fully one half were more
or less injured, and" some of them quite
seriously, although, with the exception
of the four mentioned, none are believed
to be fatally hurt.
The track was not cleared at a late
hour last night, and the express trains
transferred their passengers at the scene
of the wreck. The collision, oceured .on
a short curve, and neither engineer was
aware that another train was on the
track till it was too late to -prevent . the
catastrophe. The engineers and firemen
from both locomotives jumped off in time
to save themselves. Both engines and a
large number of cars were demolished.
The names of the killed and wounded

stated, . also, that it was , the general
opinion in the community that the peo

cause so many criminals have been par

that mischievous young men, for the
purpose of amusement, sometimes wrap

of deceased Confederate soldiers. These
negroes had disguised themselves and
whipped a white man in Clarke county,

had attempted to murder . a white - man.
When asked if he had . not heard of a
great many outrages in other portions of
the State, he replied that when in Wash

ries of that kind, that were greatly
magnified and distorted:, for political
effect; that there was less violence in
Georgia than in the New England States,
New York, Ohio, or anywhere else.

Governor Randolph, in in interview.
said that at noon on the 11th he first saw
Kelso's order. He thought the effect of
that order would be to throw the riotous
elements into New Jersey, and heimme
diately commenced writing his procla-.
niation, which was finishedby one P.M.
He further stated : "As fast as one sheet
of the proclamation was . written It was
copied by my assistant secretary, so that
wnen x nau nmsnea two copies were
within a few moments of simultaneous
completion. I sent the secretary with
one copy to the Western Union Tele
graph office to transmit the proclamation
to the papers in Newark and Jersey City, j
and I took my own copy to the Atlantic
Telegraph office to send it to the New
York papers. Being written in abbre
viated rorm, no one but myself or my
secretary could read it handily, so I had
to dictate it to the telegraph operator."
There was a storm on Tuesday which de
layed the sending of the proclamation
over the wires until half past two o'clock.
I took constructive possession of both
offices in Trenton, and claimed that no
message should be transmitted until the
proclamation had been sent, and the
operators good naturedly yielded to my
wishes. The proclamation went over the
wires at five minutes past three, and im
mediately afterward military orders were
sent to General Runyan, to the Quarter
master General, Adjutant General, and
to the staff officers, so that by half past
three all the necessary military orders
had been given. Upon reaching Jersey
City on Wednesday morniug I was met
by Mayor O'Neil, who, though Irishman
and Catholic, promptly seconded my ac
tion.

that the uovernment again oner the Pope

.' Advices from Rome up to Thursday
night say that the Pope may leave Rome
any . day. There is great excitement
among the Vatican Cardinals. The Pa
pal household is. almost constantly in
consul with the Holy Father, admittance
being denied to ordinary visitors and
persons.: : The Pope retains great secrecy
and gloom pervades over the whole Pa
pal household as if some dread event was
imminent, and present indications point
to an intention on the part of the Pope to
leave the Vatican.-: This step is generally
attriDutea to the oounsul ol cardinal An
tonello. It is reported that Beckx is Gen
eral of the Jesuits. The Pope says that
he feels reluctant about leaving Rome
ana that ne may abandon tne idea at the
last moment.-. The old age of. the Pope
and his growing feebleness are matters
of grave importance to the prelates of
itome. , The .college or Cardinals have
represented to , -the Pontiff the propriety
oi an election or the successor to be ready
for the apprehended emergency and to
avoid i contusion : which might ensue.
Measures- have already been ; taken for
the choice-ot the next Pope. Several
Cardinals are adverse to the nolicy of the
reconciliation and propose to choose of
tne collegiate, one who is not unfriendly
to Victor Emanuel, in order to bring
auout; a compromise oetween me Italian
Government and the Papacy. ' Cardinal
Corniello de Fiete is mentioned as the
candidate of the majority of the collegi
ate, ixne tioty atner is going to pub
lish a syllabus regarding the Italian oc
cupation of Rome. He will declare that
all temporal power over the Roman states
rightfully belongs to him and it is void
when held against him.
The Pope finds that the pressure of cir
cumstances is too great for him to resist,
and accordingly, in reply to an address
of the Roman Academy, remonstrating
against doctrines which are antagonistic
to the spirit of modern times, disclaims
any intention on the part of the papacy
to lay claim to inherent power to dispos
ses sovereigns, or to assume direction
over the worldly affairs of nations. "In
ancient times," he. says, "Christian na
tions revered the Pope as arbiter between
sovereign and people in cases in disa
greement, and great services have been
rendered Dy the Papacy In preventing
war and healing up divisions among the
nations- of the world."

principal Interest has been in the selec
tion of the new ministry. On Monday
the news came that Marshal Serrano
who had charge of the formation of the

monious manner,' But Tuesday's dis-
had failed. He had selected a combina
tion Of Progressists and Constitutional
Republicans, when the new I Ministers
quarreled, and Senor Sagasta was unable
to reconcile their differences. 'He there
fore ' obtained an interview with King
Atnadeus : last evening, and declined the
commission - of ' selecting the , Ministry.
The' differences were between Senors
Ulloa, Ayala and Topete. The task of
forming the new cabinet was then under
taken by Senor Zorilla, the former Pres
ident or the cortes and State Minister of

distress that dead bodies of the victims

women ana ennoren are in some cases
killed to render the supply of food
