lation of the present Congress repeal
ing in part the act commonly called
the back pay act, which gave to mem
bers of Congress back pay, to which
they have neither a legal or moral
right, being for services already ren
dered, and we deeply regret that the
President did not see proper to veto
said back pay act, as not only Repub
licans, but all good citizens were op
posed to said unwise and ruinous leg

any man for office who favors or voted

back pay, and that we favor the repeal
ot tbe whole ot said back pay act.

site is Colorado Springs, Colorado,
and it is to draw support from Colo

the grandest scenery of the Rocky
Mountain regions. The people have
i;iven about one hundred acres of
and, and subscribed $10,000 toward
the institution, and are now asking
for some outsido aid. Prof. Jonathan
Edwards, of Massachusetts, , has al

A correspondent of the Boston
Journal, writing Irom Washington,
says of the churches and their wor
shipers: - Preident Grant and family
are regular attendants at the Metro
tolitan Methodist Episcopal church,
which is a showy structure, with a
chime of bells and memorial-stained
glass windows. Until Mr. Lincoln's
day the Presidents used to attend at
St. John's Episcopal church, which
now numbers among its congregation
Secretaries Fish, Belknap and Robe
son, with their families, and is regard
ed as the most aristocratic place of
worship in the city. The Episcopal
Church of the Epiphany, has a wealthy
congregation, and the forms of the
service are there more strictly ad
hered to. The Roniau Catholic
churches are well attended, and some
of the best families are devout wor
shipers. : The singing at St. Aloysius,
which is under the control of the
Jeuits, is especially excei.ent. The
Presbyterians are numerous here; the
Rev. Dr. Sunderland being their fin
est pulpit orator. Many New Eng
lanaer, including Speaker . Blaine,
Senators Buckingham, Ferry and
Washburn, ex-Senator' Pomeroy,
Judge 1'oland and Mr. Javes, wor
xhip at the Congregational ihurch
The old Unitarian church has an a
preciatire congregation under the
preaching of the Rev. Fred. Hinckley,
The leading Bapist church is the
Calvary, which was built by Amos
Kendall, and rebuilt by him alter it
had been destroyed by fire. The
Lutherans, who believe in the unal
tered Augsburg confession, have seven
churches, tour ot which are princi
pally attended by Germans. The Or
thodox and the Hicksite Quakers
have each their meetinghouse. There
is a New Jerusalem church 011 La pi
tol Hill, and the Hebrews have their
synagogue, where there is service
every ' Friday evening . and Saturday
morning.
The UMHg aot Political.
A meeting of the Patrons of Has
bandry ot rotter County, lnd., was
held the other day to take into con
6ideration the policy of calling a "re
form" convention, to nominate candi
dates for the various county offices.
After a very full discussiou of the
question' the following resolutions
were adopted, with but one dissenting
vote:
"Resolved, That wedisapprove of all
political action that may have been
taken by members of the order in this
htate as Patrons of Husbandry.
"Resolved, That it is the duty of each
member oi our order as a citizen to
discharge his whole duty in selecting
honest and true men for all the offices
to be filled by the people. '
The action of the Porter County
Patrons is but an example of the
course which is being followed as a
ceneral thine all through the West
The Inter-Ocean has constantly ad
vised this, believing it the only way to
maintain intact the organization and
accomplish the purpose tor which it
was founded. Uf course this does not
involve the necessity of withdrawing
from politics as citizens. The coun
try uecds the positive, earnest action
ot every honest man in the land, and
whether his convictions of duty point
him Jo the Republican, Democratic or
if there is or shall be such a thing
an independent paity, we bid him
work and vote to the end that politics
of all kinds maylte lifted up and good
men elevated to omcc. V e have f re
q-iently expressed the opinion, and
we shall continue to advance it, that
the Republican party affords the best
opportunity for accomplishing the re
forms demanded, and we hope and be
lieve that the people will take pos
session of the organization, and put it
to work in the old fashion overthrow
ing evil, rooting out corruption, and
fighting iniquity wherever found and
in whatever disguises it may be hidden.
The party offers the same inducements
that a field already fenced and plowed
offers to the husbandman. He. ouly
needs to sow tbe seed and a speedy
harvest will be reaped. On the other
hand, untried and unformed parties
are like the wild lands of tbe frontier.
Valuable time must be spent to clear
them and inclose them, and years must
elapse at best before they can be made
to yield remuneration for the time and
labor expeuded upon them. We would
like to see the Patrons of Husbandry,
acting in the capacity of citizens, unit
ing with other honest men to assume
control of the Republican party, and
using the well-tried machinery to ad
vance the cause which honest men of
all classes ha vo so much at heart. But
whatever is done, the grange should
be kept entirely separate and distinct
from any political action.' After the
canvass is over, which must necessari
ly be more or less bitter this organi
zation should not find itself embar
rassed and divided by reason of its
political action, but should come to
gether to work for its fundamental
irinciples as heartily and unanimous
y as now. To the end that the' origi
nal and praiseworthy designs of the or
der may not be defeated, we hope to
sec every member co operating to
keep the society where it now is. and
where national. State, and county
granges have united in placing it en
tirely aloof from politics.
FROM HEBRON.
Hebron, Porter Co.!, ' i
... 6th Mo. 3,1874.)
Editor Pal ladium: On the 28th
ult., we addressed a full house at
, Michigan City. Although there is
' considerable interest in the cause of
temperance we found tho whisky-in
. fiuencc is predominant in that city.
. While there we went to see the moral
preceptor at the prison. This prison
is rapidly filling up. On inquiry it
appears that the great fountain from
whence came the prisoners, is from
that hot bed of intemperance and vice.
Chicago; not satisfied with selling in
toxicants through the week, the town
council of Chicago has revoked , the
- Sunday ordinance, thereby increasing
intemperance fearfully. From this
modern Sodom the depraved go forth
to prey upon the community, produc
ing crime, taxation and ruin; and so it
' will continue to be until we so arouse
the people that they will demand the
total prohibition of the sale of intoxi
cants as a beverage. -
On the 29th we spoke at Westville.
At this place we found that the wo-
men and tbe. law naa succeeuea in
closing both saloons in town. One of
these saloons had been for some time
a terrible curse to the commujfjf.
.The people were jubilant. Theehangc
in the city for the better was cause
of frequent remark.
On the 30th we addressed nearly
2,000 people in the Court House yard
at Valparaiso. We found this city
fairly aglow with enthusiasm. A few
days before our arrival they had suc
ceeded in closing every saloon in town,
and having them abated as a nuisance
under the order of court. The tem
perance men and women alike deserve
much praise iu this town. for their
perseverance against great obstacles.
A clerk in the office of the Secretary
of State has just gathered up the facts
S3 to the number of permits applied
for to the County Commissioners in
the State at the March term ninety
one counties have been heard from
no petitions were filed in thirty of
them. In twenty-one counties all ap
plied for were defeated. But 171 peti
tions were granted out of 310 applied
for in the remaining 40 comities. Con
sidering the fact that the March term
oi the Commissioner's Court has here
tofore been principally devoted to the
grauting of liquor licenses in nearly
all the counties in - the State, this
showing is a very significant one.. At
all events the temperance law and
movement in Indiana has made
broad mark up to this time; we think
the , next ..nine months will show 1
much greater mark. t
On the 31st we proceeded to Ches
terton, Parker county, 12 miles "by
private conveyance. When within
miles of that town we were met by a
procession of some 200 persons on
horseback, and escorted to town. In
going through the streets we passed
under three triumphal arche3, taste
fully constructed of evergreens; on
the first banner was inscribed", the
words, "We welcome thee;" on the
second, "God bless Baxter;" on the
third, "Temperance." In" tho after
noon we spoke to a very large audi
ence in the grove, in the evening to a
full house in the M. E. Church. In
our travel through the State we have
not met with more enthusiasm than
here. Before the passage of the law
Chesterton was noted for intemper
ance and rowdyism. f When the wo
men's movement began it was thought
impossible to close up the saloons,
but within six weeks from the time the
movement began, every saloon was
closed. Before the saloons; were
closed the town jail was frequently
filled with prisoners; but since they
' have been elosed, only one person has
been incarcerated; and that person
was imprisoned for drunkenness caus
ed by.liquor obtained iu an adjoining
town. When the saloons were open
it was a common thing to see persons
intoxicated in the streets; since then,
not a drunken person has been. seen,
proving conclusively that the pesence
' of the saloon leads to intemperance,
therefore, to shut them up is tore
move intemperance. ' When will our
Government see this and act accord
ingly:
On the 1st we Fpoke at Crown Point,
Lake county, to the largest assembly
ever congregated in the . Hall; we
were glad to find that the Catholic
priest and other ministers were deeply
interested- in the work.- Here they
want considerable agitation on the
subject. In this county there are
good many Germans, they all vote the
Democratic ticket.
On the 2d we held a large meeting
' at Lowell, in Lake county. We found
there a good deal of temperance feel
ing but no organization. Two saloons
in this town are doing great mischief.
Wherever the grog shop exists, it
proves a fearful curse and blight to
the community. Astonishing , indeed
it is that the people do not arise in
their might and banish them from the
land, for they are always a curse and
not a blessing. ' I speak here to-night;
to-morrow ; night at Wanatah; the
next night at Warsaw, Kosciusko
county, and so onward. The last four
months has witnessed a glorious revo
lution all through the State.

Four cigars a day at a bit each

sum of $365 in a year. With

At the opening of the Commis
sioners cour V at Indianapolis last
week, the room was filled with ap
plicants for liquor permits.
A small delegation from the
Woman's Christian ; Temperance
Unim was present, and opened the
session with prayer. The Com
missioners have turned a complete,
legal somersault ' since tho last
term, throwing the burden of proof
npon the remonstrants. Sixty one
petitions are to be passed upon.
At Ft Wayne, the ladies took
the Commissioners by surprise,
with an attorney, appearing before
them, to oppose the granting .of
liquor selling permits. They con
tend that their petitions were not
gotten up according to law. '
Alter a long aeDace wiui iue
county attorney they retired in
distrust
... r
In Lofiransport, Cass county, the
ladies are making a determined re
sistance to tho granting of permits.
They are confident that every pe
tition not in strict conformity with
the law, will be rejected.
The Commissioners court of
Jefferson county, was the scene of
hard fought battle between the
liquor and temperance , elements.
Tho ladies had procured quite ' a
number of names which had been
signed to . several liquor sellers'
applications, , asking the commis
sioners to consider their names
withdrawn, and, with these docu
ments in the hands of an attorney,
they were confident of success ; but
the liquor men brought most of
these same men who had iiened
the two papers into court, and had
them declare they wished the first
signature to be valid, and the
second to be null. ' Under the cir
cumstances but one applicant was
defeated.
The President's ' Views
on tbe Cur-
: reney.
Senator Jones has obtained tho
permission ot President Urant to
publish the following memorandum,
prepared by the latter, expressing
his views on financial questions:
I believe it, says the President,
a high and plain duty to return to
a specie basis at the earliest pos
Bible day, not only in compliance
with legislative and party pledges,
bnt as a step indispensable to last
ing national prosperity. I believe
further that tho time has come
when this can be done, or at least
begun, with less embarrassment to
every branch of industry than at
any future time, after a resort has
been had to unstable and temporary
expedients to stimulate an unreal
prosperity and speculation on a
basis other than coin, the recogniz
ed medium of exchange throughout
the commercial world. The par
ticular mode : selected to bring
about the restoration of a special
stanaara is not oi so much conse
quence as that some adequate plan
be devised till tho time fixed when
the currency shall be exchangablo
for coin at par, and a plan adopted
and rigidly adhered to. It is not
possible that any legislation sug
gested by me would prove accepta
ble to both branches of Congress,
and, indeed, a full discussion might
shake my own . faith in tho details
of any plan I might propose. I
will, however, venture, to state the
general features of the action which
eeems to me advisable.
The financial platform on which
I would stand, and any departure
from which would be in a spirit of
concession and harmony in refer
ence to connicung opinions is as
follows:
First, I would like to see the legal
tender clause, bo called., repealed.
uie repeat 10 tane enect at some
future time, say July 1st, 1875
This woul cause all contracts mado
after that date for wages, sales, etc..
to be estimated in coin.' It would
correct our notions of values. The
specie dollar would be the only
dollar known as a measuro : of
equivalent When debts afterwards
contracted were paid in currency
instead cf calling a paper dollar a
dollar, and quoting gold at so much
premium, we. should think and
speak of paper as at so much dis
count. This done would aid greatly
in bringing the currencies nearer
together at par.
Second. I would like to see
provision that at a nxed day, say
July 1, 1876, the currency issued
by the United States should be
redeemed in . coin on presentation
to any assistant treasurer, and that
all currency ho redeemed should be
cancelled and never reissued. To
effect this it would be necessary to
authorize the issno of bonds paya
ble in gold, bearing such interest
as would command par in ; gold, to
be put out by the Treasury only in
such sums as should from time to
time be needed for the purpose of
redemption. Such a plan would,
in my judgment, work less hard
ship to the debtor interest than is
likely to come from putting off the
day of final reckoning.' It must be
born in mind too that the creditor
interest had its day of disadvantage
also, when our present financial
system was brought in by the su
preme needs of the nation. I would
further provide that from and aftt-r
tae date f xei for redemption,- no
bills, whether Of national banks or
of the United States, returned to
the Treasuiy to be exchanged for
new bills, should be replaced by
Ixl's of less denomination than $10,
and that in one year after ; resnmp
tionv all bills of less than $5 should
be withdrawn from circulation, fend
i l lwoyar8, all bills of less than $10
should be withdrawn : The advan
tage of this would be a strength
given to the country against the
time of depression resulting from
war, a failure of crops or any other
cause, by keeping always in- the
hands of the people a large supply
of precious .metals,: with all the
smaller transactions conducted in
coin.' and many, millions of it would
be kept in constant use and of
course prevented from leaving the
country.
, Undoubtedly a poorer currency
;will always drive the better ont of
circulation. - With paper a legal
-tender, and at a discount, gold and
silver become articles of merchan
dise as much as wheat or corn, and
the overplus will find the best
market it can. With small bills in
circulation there is n'o use for coin
IS no Use lor COin I
the vaults of banks
except to keep in
; to redeem circulation. During pe
riods of great speculation and ap
parent prosperity there is little
. demand for coin and then it will
flow out to a market where it can
be made to earn something, which
it cannot do while lying idle. Gold,
like anything else, when not needed
becomes a surplus, and like every
surplus, finds a market where it can
find one. By giving active employ
ment to coin, however, its presence
seems to be secured and the panics
and depressions which have occur
red periodically in times of nominal
specie payments, if they cannot be
wholly prevented, can at least be
greatly mitigated. Indeed, I ques
tion whether it would have been
found necessary to depart from the
standard of specie in the trying
days which gave birth to the first
legal tender act had tho country
taken the ground of no small bills
as early as I860.
Again, I would provide an excess
of revenue over current expendi
tures. I would do this by rigid
; economy and by taxation where
taxation can be best borne. In
creased revenue would work a con
stant reduction of the debt and
interest, and would provide coin to
meet the demands on the Treasury
for the redemption of its notes,
thereby diminishing the amount
i of bonds needed for that purpose.
; All taxes, after redemption begins,
should be paid in coin or United
States notes. This would force
redemption on the national banks.
WTith measures like these, or meas
nres which would work out such
results. I see no danger in author
izing free banks without . limit.

MARVELLOUS EFFECT.
Mr. H. R. Stevens: Dear Sir 1 have used
tbe great Blood Remedy, Vegetine. and feel
It a duty to acknowledge the grout benefit It
has done me. ' In the soring of the year
182, 1 wassick from general debility caused
by overwork, want of sleep and proper rest.
I was very weak and much emaciated. 1
tried many remedies without receiving any
benefit from any of I hem. until I was per

this one week, my improved condition guve
me reneweu nope ana conragr. I contin
ued to take It even- da v. KHinine more
