WASHINGTON, D. C.'Aug. 2, 1575.
Tofhe Editor of the Rational Bemtllcan:
Sib: For nearly three years the people residing
on Thirteenth street southwest have been unable
to reach their doorsteps with any kind of vehicle.
The street was originally well graded and grav
eled, which gravel was all taken away by some
individual who had a contract for paving the
street, and who did nothing but use It to pave an
aajouusg street, mua leaving a miseraoie mua
bole. Some time since the contract was made to
pave It with asphalt: the sidewalks were all taken
up and the pipes lowered, and It remains In a
worse condition than ever before. Unless some
thing Is done people will have to wade through
mud to reach their own dwellings. The attention
or Lieutenant Hoxie is called to this subject, and
It Is hoped that something will be done to remedy
the evil at once. A Keside-ct.

A Detective Ess a Tough Tussle.
Yesterday near noon, as Detective McDevltt
and Constable John A. Gray, of Alexandria, Vir
ginia, were In the vicinity of Thirteenth and C
streets northwest, tbey noticed a fight la progress
at Hoonej's corner. The detective hastened to
the spot, and there found one colored man on the
sidewalk with another on top, beating Ihlm. and
fully fllty persons witnessing the sight The offi
cer immediately seised the topmost man. a larra.
.muscular negro, end attempted topul? him off
sad fticceedeu. He then taitivorecf to km Mm
to the station-house, and got him Into u street
where the man made a most desperate resistance!
but the officer held to bis prisoner, and in the
Stifle the latter rid himself of most all his cloth
ing. Efforts were ms de by outsiders to assist the
detective In getting nippers on the man, but when
any one approached he either made a lunge or
kicr that deterred them from Interfering.
Finally, Sergeant Dlnttnore and Officer Sutton
came to his assistance, and as the first attempted
to take hold he gave him s terrible kick in the
thigh. The detective, who tad refrained from
striking, seeing that desperate eases required
desperate remedies, hauled away with his fist and
gave the desperado a terrific blow In tbe nose which
quickly set the claret flowing. Making farther
resistance he received a second dose of the same
medicine, which evidently hsd;the desired effect,
as he then proceeded quietly to the station, where
he war registered as Armsteid Judson and put
back to await tbe opening or Judge Snail's recep
tion today. He assured the detective that he
would get even if It iu ten years hence, and that
dark nights told no tales. The affair drew about
300 people to the neighborhood, and for the time
belsar created considerable excitement. Later In
the evening some of his friends had the cheek to
call on the detective at police headquarters and
ask that officer cot to appear against him to-day.
List night Offieer-Sntton arrested Chas. Johnson
one of the same gang, on the charge er disorderly
conduct, and locked him up in the Central star

TBOCZXSISGS.
The Rev. Mason Noble presided, and Rev. C
C. Meador filled the post of secretary.
The convention was opened by prayer by Dr.
Gray; after which the secretary read the minutes
ox last weea's meeting oi pastors.
The chairman called upon the committee of
five appointed last week to lay the matter before
the churches, and in the absence ol Dr. Newman,
tbe chairman of the committee, Bev. G. A. Hall
reported that the committee had carried out the
Instructions or the meeting In notifying the vari
ous churches, and that the convention was the re
sultot their work.
' Tbe secretary was Instructed, on motion, to
make out a list or the pastors and delegates
present.
The Chair then Invited the convention to the
discussion or the pending business.
In order to bring the matter directly before the
convention, Dr. Hall moved that "we invite
Messrs. Moody and Sankey to come here and hold
special meetings during the coming fall or
winter."
The Bev. Dr. Bice suggested that the motion
should have been more earerully worded, and.
On motion or Mr. Mlrlck, the motion was
amended to read:
the iirvrTATioir.
We.thedelegateiortheEvangellcalchurches."
After which the motion was adopted, all rising.
Dr. Noble called upon Br. Howard for a short
prayer, to ask of God to guide them In the work.
Mr. Richards said that every step they took
should be taken with deliberation, and moved the
appointment or a committee of five to nominate a
committee of thirteen or more to take ehargn or
the matter, as that would be tbe wisest way of
securing good men on the committee.
The Chair appointed Messrs. Blchards, (Bap
tist.) Ballantyne, (Presbyterian,) Byneal, (Luth
eran,) and Cushman, (Congregational,)
On motion or Dr. Hall, the names or Drs. How
ard and Hoss (M. E. Church) and Messrs. Ken
nedy (M. P. Church) and Zimmerman (Metho
dic ) were added to the committee.
The committee then retired.
GXOTEBjlI, RXJLS.RK3.
While the committee were in consultation. Dr.
Noble spoke, relating a story or Moody In the days
wben he started on bis mission.
Dr. Wills said that they had unanimously In
vited these two men to come and work in this
city. They wished them to come in the fullness
or Christ, and in order to accomplish this there
was something else necessary. A season of special
prayer should be inaugurated berore their advent,
ss had been done In Ireland and Scotland. Un
less this was done such glorious results would cot
be achieved in Washington. If the labors or the
revivalists were prefaced by a series or union
prayer meetings they could expect such blessings
from God that there would be no room to receive
them. Moody and Sankey.ln themselves, wers
as weak as water without the aid efcraver. Ha
suggested the Inauguration or a series or union
meetings by September 1, and urged that such a
course would break the Ice or ceremony and
bring them into the closer Christian relations
necessary to realizing the abundant shower of
grace.
The Bev. J. W. Hedges seconded Dr. Wills'
opinions. He would not be surprised, ir his sug
gestions were carried out. If the Holy Ghost de
scended before Moody and Sankey came.
WILL TBZT COKE?
Dr. Gray thought that as It was not at all cer
tain whether Moody and Sankey would come,
they would place themselves In a ludicrous light
by inaugurating meetings of that kind, for the
purpose or preparing lor tbelr coming. He was
willing to go into such a plan without reterence to
Moody ana Sankey.
Dr. Wills explained that the suggestion had
been cot to Inaugurate the meetings until alter
the Erst or September, but he considered that If
they were established prior to that time, they
would serve as an Inducement to the revivalists to
come here.
Mr. Dodge, oi Illinois, stated that he had been
Intimately acquainted with Mr. Moody, and gave
an interesting account or bis doctrines and man
ner orworklng.
Mr. B. F. Keaeh agreed with Dr. Wills that
there was a necessity for a season of special
prayer, as did also the Bev. E. E. Hoss, who sug
gested that the pastors allude to the matter in
tlelr sermons.
Dr. Meador also agreed that special praye
was necessary. He said that is an experience or
nineteen years as a pastor In this city he had
sever known a revival to leave a church in a per
manent healthy cendltlon.
He was Interrupted by the return or the com
mlttee. The committee submitted the following
resolution, which was accepted tor discussion by
the convention:
THE BESOLCTIOSr.
Resolved, That we recommend that tbe pastors
ol tbe Evangelical churches of the District of
Columbia and the delegates appointed to this
convention be a general committee or arrange
ments, and that we further recommend the fol
lowing gentlemen as an executive committee:
Bev. J. P. Newman, Bev. W. S. Hammond, Chas.
Lyman, F. L. Moore, Bev. J. G. Butler, A. S.
Pratt, Wm. Stlckney. Dr. E. H. Gray, F. H.
Smith, Edward Young, Bev. A. W. Pltxer, H. F.
Zimmerman and Bev. Mason Noble.
Before tbe adoption of the resolution there was
considerable discussion on miner points. Judge
Casey thought that tbe general committee would
be large and cumbrous.
Dr. Butler moved that the first part of the reso
lution in reference to the general committee be
stricken out.
Dr. Rice thought that It would be convenient to
have the general committee as a medium of com
munication with the various churches.
Dr. Butler then withdrew his amendment.
Dr. Domer did not see why tbe word "evangeli
cal" was used is the resolution. He supposed
that If an unevangelleal minister should come he
would be admitted.
The first section of the resolution was then
adopted.
80KE CHASGES.
Dr. Noble moved that tbe name or Mr. Ballan
tyne be substituted lor his on the executive com.
mlttee, but his motion was lost.
Dr. Gray moved that Jndirs Casev'a name ba
substituted for his, but Judge Casev did notthlnk
he could fill the Doctor's place, but said that he
would do everything In bis power to forward the
movement.
Dr. Gray withdrew his motion, and tbe last sec
tion of the resolution was adopted.
On motion or Dr.HaU.lt was decided that when
the convention adjourn it be subject to the call ol
the executive committee.
Dr. Butler moved that tbe executive committee
be Instructed by the convention to consider the
expediency of establishing a onion prayer-meeting.
Dr. Wills did cot like the word "expedient," in
connection with prayer. Prayer was always ex.
pedlent. He thought that they should take some
more definite action In the matter than that.
Dr. Butler then amended bis motion, that they
establish a dally prayer-meeting; after which it
was carried,-and on motion the time and place of
tbe meetings were left for the executive commit
tee to decide.
Dr. Hall stated that for seven years he had en
deavored to sustain a union meeting, but bad
failed to obtain the support of the pastors of the
city.
The convention was then adjourned, alter a
prayer try Dr. Owen.
Such members oi the executive committee as
were present held an informal meeting Immedi
ately after the adjournment of the convention,
and decided to hold a meeting at the Y. M. C. A.
rooms Saturday evening at 0 o'clock.

Tbe mends or tbe bishop accept this as a fa
vorable sign, arguing that tbt board havode
termlned to giro the matter a patient and
thorough Investigation, recognising; that the trial
ot a bishop on any charge should never be en
tered into In a hasty manner. (The bishop's sup
porters think that he Is better able to Interpret
correctly the canon In question than his pre.
sectors, collectively or Individually, and that the
remit will show that be has been Is the right.
The prescntors and tbelr friends, on the other
hand, an confident that tbelr Hew of the situa

Inquiry, and that the latter will conclude their
labors by deciding that tbe charges an sustained
and the trial or the bishop should take place.
The presentors assert that the point at Issue Is
not a difference between them and the bishop is
the interpretation or a canon, but the power
claimed by the bishop In virtue of his Episcopal
prerogative over the law. It was to combat the
assumption or this power by Bishop Whlttlng

complaint and charges and transmitted them to
the-preslding bishop.;

TO THE CAFES.
Trip of the Steamer Lady of the Lake.
The excursion of the Lady oi the Lake down
Chess peake Bay to the Atlantlo ocean, for which
some 250 passengers had long been books. I is anx
ious anticipation, was finally and fully con
summiud st the;tlme appointed, ir dissimilar
from other trips heretofore given by the Inland
and Seaboard Coasting Company In point of en
joyment and in the jxTionnel of the participating
element, which have ever been of the highest or
der. It was mon replete with pleasure by the
rarity Imparted to It in the lengthening of the
cruise and the change of the route, bringing to
tbe vision new charms and diversions.
Leaving Washington Saturday evening, the
various landings sown the river and the ex
change of passengers wen made. Daybreak
elbowed out night a few miles below Point Look

betokened a day wholly unsulted to some or the
objects to be realized by the salL Old Pros, got
ahead or Mr. U. W. Thompson, but showed his
amiability in a compromise, by which sun and
warmth were secured long enough lor an invigo
rating surr bath. It was cold and cheerless
early Sunday morning, but with overcoats and a
company tbat were constitutionally inclined to
p.nout handsomely on the comic side ot lire
UDOn the slightest crovocitlon. we manured ta
live through the uncertain period when no fellow
can tell which turn the body-social Is destined to
take, and finally got up the "slight provocation,"
which changed the tone of events.
Arriving at Fortress Monroe at about 10 o'clock
a. m., an hour was spent in examining the formi
dable old redoubts, searching out the different
localities where Jeff. Davis was confined, visiting
the old'Hygela hotel, the bathing stations, Ac
The place Is greatly improved Is lu surroundings,
while the fort Itself Is a model of neatness and the
troops well disciplined.
We then steamed on to Sewell's Point and
Hampton Roads, and found here one or the finest
beaches and views imaginable. The Vue de
I'Esu hotel tempted most or the excursionists to
make It thelrrestlngplaee during the three hours,
but some fllty persons stripped and walked up the
beach, plunging Into the water and scuffling on
the sand. It presents a beautllul esplanade for
two miles, and Is suited to bathing at any point
is the length.
An excellent dinner, in which sea rood and
champagne predominated, was served at the
hotel. Many Washlngtonlans wen met hen,
among them Dr. Snow and wire. United States
army; Mrs. General Morgan L. Smith, the family
or Dr. Thompsen, president or Columbia hospital;
E. L. Keeney and ramlly, Mrs. C S. Noyes, Mrs.
J. L. Barbour and others.
After touching again at the fort we sailed out
beyond Capes Charles and Henry Into the At
lantic, where the breete caught us from all direc
tions and with the force or a rotary blower. On
the return we had a storm and a rough sea, which
increased the sick list. We stopped at Point
Lookout and took on a number or our city mer-
cuaats hub uu itoppea over ounuay, saving
been dropped there by the Moseley and the Lake
on the down trips.
The excursionists expressed themselves pleased,
and tbe officers were attentive in tbelr official and
Individual capacities. Captain White was hon
ored by an extempore musical composition, to
which he responded is happy acknowledgments.
Outrages of the Police.
WiStUIKOTOir, August 1, 1875.
Te the Editor of (as National Sejmiltean:
Sib: Lately one or our astute polleemenarrested
a married lady who attended the Theatre Oomlque
dressed Is male attire. I have cot beard that the
husband of the lady has either killed, beaten or
brought suit for false Imprisonment against the
said policeman. I fear therefore that no proper
notice will be taken by tbe parties most directly
Interested In the policeman's Illegal actios his
outrage upon the liberty of an unoffending dtl
xen. But the public has or ought to take an Is
terest In the matter, and I with to enter my pro
test against further like invasions of personal
liberty, ir It Is cot the duty of the policemen or
Washington to know something, It will cot I pre
sume hsrm them to be informed that no common
law, and co statute of any of our States, I believe,
and 1 think co municipal ordinance of any ot our
cities, so far as I can learn, forbids a lady's dress,
log and appearing upon the streets or attending
church or the theatre Is male attire. The arrest
was as outrage. Is the case of Mrs. Dr. Mary
Walker, Illegally arrested Is Brooklyn, N. Y.,
some years ago, by an Ignorant policeman, for the
"offense" or being dressed according to her own
taste. Investigation was made, at the Instance or
tbe writer of this. Into the whole subject, and no
precedent of the common law warranting the
arrest could be round; nor was any statute of the
State or municipal law authorising It discovered
to exist. The writer observed Is Tax Bxtubli
oaa of some days since an account of another out
rage, which should not pus unnproved, vis: the
arrest and imprisonment for some days or a negro
boy because he chanced to be the possessor o?
"brass horn!" The public were finally assured,
after very cool-blooded phraseology, that Investi
gation determined after all that the "brass horn"
was the rightful property or the boy, and he was
released: and, so tar as I know, nobody has come
forward to shoot the policemen for their outrage
upon the innocent boy. There is nothing mon
aggravating to a peaceable cltlien, who duly ap
preciates his rights of person to Individual liberty
and Immunity from the onslaughts of Ignorant
and malicious policemen, than to pass along the
whole route or Pennsylvania avenue, for example,
and be denied the pleasure of beholding trom two
to a hair dozen dead bodies or policemen, killed
by outraged citizens, lying on the sidewalks.
Decimating tbe force would afford but meagre
relief. Pray ask our policemen to try to learn
something. ISDiasrAxr Ubsebvze.

HATIOHALBAUXB.
The next resolution or tbe Democratic plat
form to which I wish to call your attention Is the
ninth:
"Ninth. That the policy already Initiated by
tbe Republican party ot abolishing legattenders
and giving national banks the powerto furnish all
the currency, will Increase, the power or as al
ready dangerous monopoly, and the enormous bur
dens now oppressing the people, without any eont-
jnnnuas wiiuiskuu ui&t wo oppose to mis
policy the demand that all the national bnk cir
culation be cromDtlv and Dermanentlv retired.
and legal tenders be issued in their place."
The substance or this resolution Is that the na
tional banks shall bo promptly destroyed, and
that the greenback clreulailon shall be Increased
to 1710.000.000. Before examining tbls startling
proposition let us dispose or some or the errors or
fact contained Is this resolution. It Is not true
that the Bepubllcan party proposes to abolish the
legal tenders, or to give to the national banks the
entln circulation of tbe country. This Is a question
or the future, upon which parties have sot yet
takes their position, and upon which so doubt dif
ferences of opinion will arise. The Republican
party has taken the position that by the' 1st ot
January, 187V, both legal tenders and national
bank notes shall be redeemable is gold wben de
manded. To this extent and no further have they
taken a position. For one I am free to say that
while our public debt exists, 1 am tor maintain
ing in circulation United States notes to the full
amount that can be maintained at psr In gold, and
no more. And I am convmeed that such cotes
Siyable on demand in cols, or at the option of the
Government in a fixed bond, would keeD in circu
lation all, or nearly all, tbe present volume of
United States notes; but If not, there Is co reason
Is the world why the Government ought not to
pay Interest on a debt It Is not prepared to pay In
cols. And with such cotes. It is Immaterial
whether they are or are cot a legal tender. To
guard against the sudden enects of a panic, I
would leave them a legal tender. But these are
my Individual views, often expressed and sincere
ly entertained. But upon this question the Re
publican party has takes so position, nor ought
it to do so until alter resumption.
As to the national banks, they are entirely Is
the power or Congress. We can repeal the law
or their creation. Would It be wise to do sot
They are denounced as a monopoly. This Is now
a falsehood. For a time alter the limit passed by
law for national bank circulation was reached
they were In one sense a monopoly; but since the
act of last winter banking Is as free as black,
smithing, iron-making ormerchandlslsg.and freer
thrs the making of lawyers or doctors or tiraaeh.
era. Any set or men may start a bank is any part-
oi tne uDitca estates on me terms, conaiticns ana
responsibilities fixed by the banking law. Over
two thousand banks have been authorized, scat
tered all over the United States. They have
loaned of their own money, or or that deposited
with them, $900,000,000, and this constitutes a
large part or the active capital upon which the
manufacturing, commercial and mining indus
tries or the country rest. They are the principal
agents for the deposit and exchange oi money,
not only is the United States but with foreign
nations. Their business reaches among and inter
laces with that of every eltlzen or the United
States. They are private corporations; the Gov
ernment has nothing to do with them except to
make them pay taxes and obey the laws. These
laws are very strict, requiring or them reports
under oath, subjecting them to frequent examina
tions at unexpected times, and maintaining over
them the strictest surveillance. The only privi
lege these banks enjoy that the humblest cltlien
dees not Is that by giringample security is United
States bonds they may Issue a certain proportion
or circulating notes. They par the expense or
printing these notes; redeem them promptly on
demand with United States notes; keep money
In tbe Treasury or the United States for that
Jrarpcse; the notes are not a legal tender; nobody
s bound to take them. When this Is all done we
require them. no keep a part of their cotes on
hand; we tax them all; the States tax them, and
the counties and towns, so that their aggregate
taxes are now $20,000,000. These are the national
banks. They were organized by the Republican
party to supersede, to take the place of tke State
banks, a mongrel crew under no common au
thority; obeying co law; giving In some States
co security; issuing bills easily counterfeited and
of limited circulation. Under the national bank
law there can be co successful counterfeiting;
the notes are secured beyond the possibility ot
loss; the bank may break, but the cote Is good.
'iney tiis witnoui question anywnere in tne
United States. They are organised for twenty
years, but still the law can be repealed. Dull
ness In some branches Is languid. Debts an hard
to pay and bard to collect. Everybody Is tiring
to save a little In expenses, and to make a little
more crop. And now a set or men, self-appointed,
calling themselves a Democretlo convention a
State convention, remember, not a national con
vention meet at Columbus and resolve that all
this system of national banks. Interwoven with
tbe business of tbe people or tbe United States,
shall be promptly torn up; tbat tbls vast indebt
edness or the people to the banks shall be
promptly paid, and tbat all the bonds or the
United States now held by these banks shall be
forced on the market, and tbat the United States
shall then Issue legal-tender notes to the addi
tional amount ot $300,000,000. Such is the finan
cial programme or the Ohio Democrats to give
relief to tbe business Interests or the country. Is
then any business man who hean me who does
cot know tbat such a measun, if adopted, would
utterly destroy the Industry or the country I
KOBE OBXXXBACKS CXC03STTTI7TIOXAL.
Let us examine this proposition a little further.
The first difficulty to be encountered Is that the
Issue of tbe greenbacks Is excess four hundred
millions would be a plain and palpable violation
of the publio faith. In ISM the United States
solemnly eniaged that the volume of lega'-'ender
cotes should never exceed the sum ot four hun
dred millions, and this pledge hat been several
times repeated, and is the sacred barrier which
alone has maintained the purchasing power or the
greenbacks at the present rate.
Again, the validity or the legal.tender act was
sustalsed by the Supreme Court os the ground
tbat It was the exercise or the war-making powers
or Congress, held to be essential to the national
existence, and yet on this ground It was sustalsed
but by a bare majority or that court. Who be
lieves for a moment that the validity of legal
tender cotes would be sustained by that court
when Issued in a time of profound peace In viola
tion or the publio faith, and as a part or a publio
polley to maintain Is perpetuity an Irredeemable
policy t
Again, for what purpose would the United
States Issue their notes t Would It be to purchase
the bonds of the United States now held as secu
rity for bank notesT Those bonds are the property
or tbe banks and could only be purchased like
other bonds Is tbe open market at a large pre
mium. The premium wculd rapidly advance as
the Irredeemable cotes were Issued. How long
would this process continue be 'ore these platform
makers would assert the right to pay the bonds
is greenbacks, and thus again violate tbe publio
lalth pledged by the act of March, 1889, to
stren gthen tbe public credit? Or would tbey loan
the greenbacks to the people as the bank sotes
are cow loaned, and thus convert the Government
Intoabanknot onlyof loanbut ofdlioountT It is
Idle to follow tbe evil consequences and dangerous
efiects of the Democratic policy announced Is
these resolutions. Their end would be utter bank,
ruptcy and ruin.
But what good do they hope fort They would
save the Interest on the notes cow issued by the
banks. They want the Government to have the
Croats of issuing cotes for clrealation. In rain.
ing tbls they would violate the publio faith, they
would lose all the taxes now received from the
national banks, and utterly destroy 'all Ideas or
fixed values. The profit or this circulation even
by the banks Is greatly exaggerated, so much so
that now more circulating cotes are being retired
by banks than are Issued to them. This privilege
Is now open to alt, and yet it Is not taken. IX the
Government assumes tne sole and exclusive priv
ilege of Issuing these cotes, It cannot engage is
the business-by which alone the privilege can be
made profitable, and the business publio would
lose the benefit of discounts and loans.
But the real motive lies back of all this. These
men want more money, mon money. Not real
money, but depreciated paper money cheap
money, becoming cheaper and cheaper as mon u
Issued, making It easier to pay debts. But will
this money buy what money will now? Will a
dollar ot this money buy what a dollar or gold
will buy, or what a dollar of paper mosey will
now buyt We know It will not. It will depre
date even In greater proportion as Its volume la
creases. Your grain, your Iron and coal may
bring yon mon money than you receive now, but
tbe money you receive will buy yon less than
now, aad you will be constantly cheated by a false
weight and a false standard. How strange it Is
that human experience so often repeated does not
stamp upon the mind of every human being the
truth proclaimed by Webster, acted upon by Jef.
ferson and Jackson, and which lies at the founda
tion of the laws or currency that of all the con
trivances for cheating the laboring classes of
mankind, cose has been more effectual than
that which deludes them with depreciated paper
money. Ordinary tyranny, oppression, excessive
taxation these bear lightly on the happiness of
tbe man of tbe community, compared with a
fraudulent currency and the robberies committed
by depreciated paper.
HATIOUAi BASKS AOAIB.
Now, fellow-cltliens, to return again to the oa-,
tlonal banks, which the Ohio Democrats propose
promptly to destroy. I need not remind you that
next to Mr. Chase, then Secretary of the Treas
ury, I had as much to do with the passage of the
national bank act as any one, and yet I regarded
It at an experiment, and chiefly supported it as a
means of driving out or existence the heterogene
ous multitude of State banks tbat during the war
threatened te overwhelm us with paper money or
limited circulation and no security. The national
basking system has proved os. the whole a great
success. Mr. MeOuUoch, is his report as Secre
tary of the Treasury, In 1867, carefully reviewed
the whole system, and I recommend my Demo
erotic friends to that report for some wholesome
reading. Since he wrote the banking system has
been improved by making it free, and by provid
ing lor the prompt redemption or Its notes by each
bank is the Treasury of the United States. They
bare yet to bear the test of cols redemption.
When the United States. notes shall have ad
vanced to par Is gold, they muttredeem their
cotes at par is gold, lf.then, experience shalT
show that this system will famish to the people
through local banks, circulating notes Is connec
tion with greenbacks and geld, all freely, convert
ible into each other, then the. Republican party
will stand by It, . If not, that party wlHmodify U
or dispense with it. And is daallng.wlth this
qulitios, I trust the Republican party will do as
it has done with other great problems ot human
government that It has successfully solved. It

tlon. But consistency can scarcely be expected
Is a Democratic platform. The substance of tht
resolution' is to redact our duties on Imported
goods Just one half of tbe dlicount of our paper
money, wben tempered with gold, or at thli time
about seven per cent. New, as a nresue meas
un, this Is certainly a bad one, when our revenues
an barely sufficient to meet our expenditures,
But a etlll graver objection exists to this resolu
tion. By thelawasItnewsUnds.psssedlnFeb
ruary, 1802, and upon which every bond ot the
United States cow outstanding was Issued, the
very foundation of our publld credit, It was pro
Tided: "See. 6. That all duties on Imported goods shall
be paid ineoin, and tbe coin so paid
shall be set apart as a special fund, and shall be
applied as follows:
"First, To the payment In cots of the Interest
on the bonds and notes ot the United States.
"Second To the purchase and payment er one
Ser centum of the entire debt ol the United
tates, to be made Is each fiscal year after 18D2.
which Is to be set apart as a sinking fund, and
the Intent or which shall in like manner go to the
purchase or payment ot the publio debt
"Third The residue tbereol to be paid Into the
Treasury ortl e UnitedStstes."
Now, fellow-cltliens, under this law the United
States has acted, and are compelled to act until
the public debt Is paid. Uader It all duties on
Imported goods are paid Is gold, and these duties
yield us a revenue now or about ISO millions or
dollars In gold. This money Is mortgaged to the
publio creditors, and we dare not violate that
pledge except on the penalties of national dis
honor. OI this money something over 100 mil
lions a year Is required to pay the interest of our
publio debt. Over 30 minions is required lor
what Is called the sinking fund, for the gradual
redemption of the debt. We have other expendi
tures which must be paid Is gold, such as our
foreign Intercourse and our navy when abroad.
This will leave perbapsS to SO millions or gold,
which Is paid into tbe treasury, and Is sold for
United States notes and used for current expendi
tures. Now this resolution demands that this
gold, thus sacredly pledged, shall be diverted, in
violation or your publio laltb, and for what T To
reduce the duties or taxes on foreign goods 7 per
cent. No language Is strong enough to denounce
such a policy. A small portion of this iund,abost
25 millions, may be used for any proper purpose
or expenditure, and tbe-efore Judge Thurmas
last winter proposed to receive one fifth ot the
customs duties In currency; but even this was op
posed on the ground tbat It would Impair the
trust tuna, ana as against the publio policy.
Senator Bayard, or Delaware, a leading Demo
crat, took strong ground against It, and it was
overwhemlngly defeated. Now, the Ohio Demo
crats propose to surrender one half or our gold
revenue, to dishonor our pledges, and drive the
Secretary or the Treasury into tho gold market
to buy gold to pay the Interest, and all to lower
the duties that yield our revenues and protect
your Industries.
The eleventh resolution in this platform Is only
Important in that It promises you la place of your
national banks a system ol free banks or discount
and deposit ; is other words, broker shops. No
doubt they are a great blessing, but 1 think we
have now enough or them. At all events,we have
now in every State tbe right to go Into the bro
kerage business tree from all restraints, and we
need cot put tbe Democratic party In power to
gals this great blessing.
THE TABIJT.
The only other financial plank Is the platform
is very brier.
"Twelfth A tariff for the sole purpose ot reve
nue." This resolution Is a blow at that system or tar
iff laws which had their origin is Washington's
administration, and have continued ever since,
varied is degree, but strengthened and Improved
by the Republican party, and which, while look.
Ing to Imported goods as the chief soureo of Fed
eral revenue, also regards the fostering and pro
tection of domestlo Industry as a national object.
Incident to all revenue laws, and deserving the
most considerate and favorable care. If that be
the meaning, we accept the Issue promptly. We
do seek, while levying taxes, not only to make
their operation as light and just as possible, but
also to advance our own Industry without impair
ing the sources or revenue. In this tense we are
for the protection or American Industry, and
proudly point to the vast development or home
uiBuuiknum m mo result oi atepuDiican policy.
I do not think It necessary, belore you, to enter
Into the common arguments that have been made
upon this subJect,ror I know you are familiar with
them.- I bave always regarded a tariff law as a
subject, not or political dispute, but for the appli
cation oi good common sense In the adjustment of
tbe details, applying the higher duties to articles
oi luxury, fair avenge duties on articles that
come into competition with our own Industries,
and low duties, or cone at all, on articles ol com
mon aeeesslty, that cannot economically be pro
duced here, or that enter as raw articles Into our
domestlo manufactures. In passing such a tariff
we do look to something elie than the men money
we wring from our people as taxes.
DIMAOOaiSJf.
Take this whole financial platform or tbe Dem
ocratic party, and it opens up to you the most
dangerous errors, the wildest demagoglsm, the
greatest departure, not only from fundamental
principles of public policy, but from cherished
grindples oi the Democratic party. We already
ear the voice ot remonstrance; the cry ot alarm
from all parts or the United States. The ques
tion is what will they do with It.
Governor Allen, much to the surprise or some
or his friends, yields gracefully his old convic
tions, and. If I understand his speeches at Newark
and Gallipolls, adopts the whole platform. Many
of the Democratic papers openly repudiate It,
The Democntic editor In the city Is which I live,

TO BETUBLICAXS.
To my Republican associates I can speak with
confidence and hope. We have a State ticket,
every same os which must command your sincere
respect. We have a platform that speaks no un
certain sound, and meets our approbation. We
an united on the wise and modonte financial
policy which has guided our party; has sustained
the publio faith and the publio credit: has given
ns ample means to carry on a great war and build
up our industries; which has for the first time
given ns a safe national currency, needing only
one attribute to make It perfect; and cow we are
agreed on a slow and: steady jrogress to make
that currency equal to gold. What more do we
want, my Republican friends, than to march for
ward with unity, confidence and strength! Yon
may here and there find men to falter or faults to
criticise; your officers and agents may tail, but
your cause Is good and your work is honorable
not free mm fault, but better than that of any
party that preceded It,
see wwuui uruau country oi oura united we
stand. Many of our ancient enemies now glory
In our success. The prayers or four millions or
freednen rise perpetually to Almighty God for
the Bepubllcan party. Great names adorn our
history, written there by us. Memoreble events
for fifteen years have lifted our country from a
confederacy or discordant States, lett by a Demo
cratic administration to the chances ot civil war,
to the position of a nation or the highest rask, to
mould a continent and to guide a world to free
Institutions. Let us not apologize te our adver
saries for the faults that are human, nor examine
with a microscope the fallings or friends, If only
the great objects we have sought and the good
measures we have accomplished, and the Policy
marked out for us is on the whole wiser and bet
ter than Is proposed by our adversaries; then our
path of duty is with the Bepublisan party. In
spire it If you please with better principles, with
higher alms, and by a good example; but rest as
sured that yeu must rely upon the Republican
party ror any progress that Is made In making or
executing good laws. And, fellow citizens, you
who at any time acted with the Bepubllcan party
during the war or since the war, and from what
ever cause have been dissatisfied with the party
to which you belonged, let us come together again.
We have forgives the rebels, let us forgive each
other. I am liberal enough to confess that the
Republican Party has. committed some errors.
And 1 am Republican enough to know tbat Its.
history. Its principles. Its policy, and Its tenden

not te forget tbat expression and style art quite
permissible even in a sentimental long. Greater
variety li also demanded from him when respond
ing tonls numerous encores. He gives one the
Idea of a limited rertrtoirt, and with him tbat Is
not the ease, Tbe character act, "When Inland
Is Free," by Lady Isabel Monzert and her sister,
was- neatly executed, and tbey earned two
fenulne encores. Miss Lottie Grant, with
er rich an4 stylish costume and handsome
face, received two encores In pnientlng her serio
comic gems, but the audience was In a generous
mood. Miss Leitle Carle foUowed with the
Highland Fling. Her execution of the dance was
as different from the ordinary performance as the
musle of Ole Bull's violin is from a Jewsharp, and
every step was accompanied with applause from
tbe audience. The eomlo sketch, "Which Is
Which?" again Introduced Welch and Blee, as
sisted by John Boblnson, and then eame the
favorite, Miss Mollle Wilson. Her songs take
with the patrons or the Comlque, and she sings
them with all expression. Habitues or variety
theatres have' noticed the fact that the song re
hearsing Jim Fisk's kindnesses to the poor is
always applauded, in the song many ot his
faults are mentioned, but each verse ends with
the refrain, "He never west back on the peer,"
and by sertc-comte vocalists his memory Is being
sung with something like eternal favor. Mollle
Wilson has two or thraec songs which, is words,
hut morels innuendctell the shameful tale of the
Beecher. scandal, accompanied with the terribly
sarcastic comment or " Yum, yum, yum." No
one knows exactly what It means, but It seems to
be the general ODinlon that It means Beecher Is
guilty, and the yells of delight at that conclusion
would stampede an encampment of Comanche
Indians. The morel is obvious; that Is, that
public opinion "sets things eves." M'lle Pauline
was warmly greeted by her o'd friends, who
noticed a marked Improvement Is her voice and
style. The performance concluded with the
" Three Fast Men," which introduced the female
minstrel scene and the Amelean (we bear It
named at last) can-can. The cast Included the
names of Kitty Allync and Lilly Howard as Jen
nie and Maggie Falrlove. Matinee to-morrow
afternoon.
The Avenue Theatre.
The Avenue theatre, notwithstanding the
heavy storm, contained a large audience last
night, and the attractions there this week fully
deserve this mark or approval. The company
has been essentially strengthened by the engage
ment orrecognlicd star artists, and In addition to
all this the amusement provided for the Schuet
renfest has been transferred to this theatre, and
all, the specialists appear there and will during
the week. Among these are Mons. and Mile.
Emoclew, who exhibit on the double trapeze the
greatest skiu and daring. The ease with which
tbey perform tbe most difficult feats relieves the
apprencusion oi mealier, out wo auiuouca a al
ways glad when they are safely through. The
performance opens with a parlor entertainment
and In Nelson (bones) and Seheffer (Umbo) they
have two excellent end men, who, during the
day. will give a portion of their time to the study
of wit Sheridan's best Jokes were carefully
studied up beforehand, and "end men" make a
great mistake when they rely upon what they
ctn happen to think of at the time It Is wanted.
Tho "Grey Ham of My Mother" was prettily
sung by Miss Laure Harrison, and Miss Georgia
Brown, In rendering "Sadie Bay," was three
times genuinely encored. "She has a very pleas
ant voice, a neat stage presence, and will jrove a
drawing card. "Little Shamrock," by Lou Ed
wards, gave her host of friends a chance to
welcome her back again, and to demand several
songs after that. Harry M. Parker brought Is
his troupe or educated dogs. They are wonder
fully trained, and many ot their performances re
quired something very near the reasoning faculty.
Miss Tlllle Russell, a Mississippi brunette and a
sew candidate lor Washington favor, afforded
real pleasure with her new songs and dashing
style. The hornpipes and medleys of tbe Harri
son sisters, the Ethiopian act ot Nelson and Sehef
fer, the sketch or "The Rivals," the Scottish
pastimes, Ac., were all good, and then eame John
Le Clair's grotesque hatsplaning and Juggling
act. This is an attractive feature. "Washington
After Dark" Included Is the cast the greater part
or the company. It revealed what the "young
things" have seen when they ought to have bees
at home, and introduced In new and greatly .im
proved style the Can-Can a dance which the
publio never seems to see enough or. and which la
too etheflai and beautiful to be described In the
language of mortals.
THBOUQHBAGOAGE.
A Correction for the Baltimore and Potomac
Railroad Officials.
A clipping from the Baltimore Caief(, pub
lished last Friday in The Retcbucak, complain
ing of Inconvenience occasioned by Irregularities
is the transfer of baggage from this city to Balti
more, misrepresented the true state of thematter.
The Gazette said:
"The night express train from Washington for
New York makes connection with the Aqula
creek steamboat, and frequently brings a large
cumber of Baltimore passengers who coma from
the South Is the summer and stay here a day or
two, or are bound to some or the mountain resorts
reached by the reads out of Baltimore. This train
carries co baggage except that which belongs to
the through New York and Northern passengers,
so that the baggage of the Baltimore passengers
Is left either to the Pacific express, which arrives
In Baltimore after midnight, when neither backs
cor other means or transporting It to the hotels
can be procured, or It does not come at all until
tbe following morning, leaving the passengers In
anxiety and doubt regarding their baggage and
Its whereabouts."
This statement It Incorrect, Tbe New York
sight express does carry other baggage than
that which belongs to the through New York
and Northern passengers, andtbe;baggage from
the Acquia creek boat, both or through passen
gers and Baltimore passengers, Is nightly put
upon tbat train. The train has sometimes been
delayed a quarter or an hour when the boat has
been late In order to receive all the baggage
An examination ot the books of the 'baggage
agent of the Baltimore and Potomac railroad at
tbls point, Mr. W. H. Phillips, will show conclu
sively that all the baggage of Southern passen
gers that has passed through this depot during
the past year, and that has not been delayed at
some point is the South, has been transferred to
Bsltlmon on the New York night express; and
further, that no baggage checked trom the South
has ever been lett over for the Pacific express.
Changes st the Kayy Yard.
The Joiners' shops ot the departments or con
struction and repair and yards and docks were
consolidated yesterd ay, with Mr. Wm. L. ChUds
as foremen m charge and Mr. B. L. Simpson as
second-class foreman is charge or Ship-Joiner
work. The blaeksmlthlsg, painting and Joiner
work, formerly dose by men employed by the de
cartmenta of ordnance, eaulnmest and reemltinar
and yards and docks, has also been trasferred to
construction and repair.
In compliance with the abavt Jirder, ont fore
nan of painters, two joiners, one wheelwright, one
blacksmith, three apprentice boys and two la
borers, from the department or yards and docks,
and one joiner, from the department of equipment
and recruiting, were discharged yesterday, but
the probability Is that all these men will he re
employed in tie department to which tbelr work
was transferred.
Mr. John Hoover, who has occupied tbe position
of draughtsman In the department or construction
and repair tor some years past, was lately the
recipient ol an appointment ot assistant naval
constructor In the navy, and yesterday received
his orders to report for duty at the Philadelphia
navy yard. J. B. North, a writer, carried on the
yard rolls, has been discharged.
That Rescued Chill.
To the Editor of the Rational Republican:
Sib: Yon are mistakes In your statement In
reference to me in your last Saturday's Issue. I.
did sot save that child. The credit of that noble"
and heroic act, by which a mother Is now enabled
to clasp to her heart her offspring alive and well
Instead or being the victim or a shocking death,
is due to Mr. Crontn. The Uttle darling had been
rescued before I reached the scene of the confla
gration, and the only way In which I can account
for your making of me the hero of the affair Is
from tbe fact that I am a man of eyes-ln-glass,
(isinglass,) and therefore withstanding fire should
be ray forte. E.T. B.
