THE TROY HERALD. WEDNESDAY. JANUARY 9. 1878. TROY HEHALD. WEDNESDAY, JAN'Y 9, 1877. Preamble and Rewlutten of the Late State Orange, at Boontvllle, Mo. It is conceded by all thai tho tltno line coiiio when tho rcpreiontatlva of the vnrloue business liitcrotts ol tho country ilinuld express I heir koii 1 1ntents and convictions tinon the llimnclal system 'of tho government. ' Thl nation was founded upon the Idea, Republican Equality. The cor nor stone tho basts of It political economy la "the greatest good to tlio greatest number." Any tncory of finance, therefor?, In conflict with theso principle, am not be adapted to tho uses of a frco pcoplo and tho promotion of rcpubll cun Institutions. It Is not domed that tho system or flnnnco under which wo have been ftnigglluK, Is essentially thittof Ureal Drilain. And while it may be ad mirably adapted to tho tnonorchial principle which seeks to concentrate nil wealth and power In the hands of the few, It is equally Inimical to the Democratic principle, tho object f which U tod Mo 10 wealth uud pewcr otiionHt tho maues. Owing to this autlrcptibllcnn sys tem wo are entering upon tho second century of our national lifo under circumstances evoking tho gravest apprehensions. The great producing classes stand the agriculturists upon one hand und (ho miners and manufacturers upon the other, paying tribute ton small Intermediate class who truffle in iuoiicv. Tho reciprocal exnhaugo of commo ill lies by and between tho great pro ducing classes Is subjected by tho cunning and avarlco of the money vending class, to a system of tolls, -commissions, interest and discount, which not only absorbs all profit, but cucumber, by morigago interests tarius, lactories and mines. So grievous has this system be- conic, that wo behold iinmeuso for- tunes swillly accumulating about tliu few, while pauperism is expand ing with alarming rapidity amongst the many. Ii Is clear, therefore, that U these adverse tendencies a to not arrested- if the autocratic system, we have borrowed from a monarchy is not supplanted by one more congenial to free institutions, tho dccliuo of the republic must bo rapid, uud Its fate us ignoble us its rise has been heroic it ml glorious. Deeply impressed by these solemn flourictious the duty wo owe to our selves and our posterity Is plain and unequivocal. Tho work before us, therefore Is to institute and eniablUU a medium ol exchange which wo may call money 4ir cash, for the purpose of transfer ring from hand to hand the title to products or property. Tho history of the financial world jxiiuts unerringly to the "cttiued credit" of a great and powerful ua Honnsllto best possible Instrument which w3 seek. If other nations may not have clothed such an instrument with nil the elements of power and public coulideticu whicU might have been concentrated therein, t remains lor us to jirovu a superior i it t ol 1 1 fieuce, derived from free Institutions, by thus combining tliem, mid pre renting to Hie world a linuucial sys ipui that shall be republicau in its very nature and essence. ltU.S0I.UTIO.VS. Wo, Iho representative of tho Pat rons ol MUsnuri in Slato (i range as trembled, therefore demand tho abut- inhuifnt of the national banking sys torn ; and call for currency iiBticddl leotly from the government to tho people, and based upon the credit of Iktu nation, which shall bo a legal tender for all debts, public and pri vate, except whero contracts have tpocllled sniuo other kind ol payment To relieve Ihu producing classes from a system of usury which is but number namo foi cnnflKCullou of their properly rights, we declare in favor ( direct. I lrr all larmers, n . loans of Treasury uotos, tin- i bio and Just ri'giilallous, to , maiiulaciurers and miners. To relievo tax-payers from onerous tiunkusot iuxuilun for tho puymru of luterost oh stato nml elty dobts, we declaro in favor of direct loan of government treasury notos to state and cltlos, to be used In liquidating their outside standing bonds. In viow of Iho fact that whatever money is paid Into tho public treasury as Intorost fur the uso of Iho treasury notes, will rollovo Iho people from taxation In other forma to an equal amount, wo recommend that the rate of interest be established at three per cent, per annum. As a matter of public economy and in obedieuco lo sound business prin ciples, we domand that the tiatlonal bonded debt which is subject to call and payment in legal tender treas ury notes, shall bo so csllod and paid without delay. That tho burden of taxation may fall equally upon tho palace ot the rich and Iho hovel of Iho poor upon wealth in coffers as in lund, we de clare against Iho issuance of any more uoii-taxablo bonds, and in favor of recalling those already issued at soon us possible, if there is no lienor ablo method of making them taxable. For the purpose of paying our coin obligations according lo contract, wo demand the rcmoiietlzalioii of silver oil a basts equal with that of gold 412 1-2 -trains to tho dollar. Wo demand the repeal of tho re sumption net. To etiabte the frugal of all classes to save their earnings and receive a small revenue therolrom, demand tho cxUblisunient by the general gov ernment of postal saving banks, the certificates of deposit In which shall draw two por cent. Interest per an num, but shall not bo transferable or used as currency. llelieviug tho objects sought by the foregoing propositions to bo neces sary for iho perpetuity of the repub lic ami Iho welfare uud happiness ol her people, we call upon all produc ing classes to join us in securing their adoption. And we claim, that in the advocacy ot theso principles, wo regard us gratuitous Iho charges of dishonesty uud bad laith which hitvo I cen.hurlcil against us by-leading public journals and learned statesmen in the halls of congress, and would simply say that such charges arc mure befitting those who added lo our public uud private indebtedness by the passagoofa clan destine set which limited tho uso of silver coin, and by adding over ijf.500,- 000,000 lo tho public burden by chang ing u currency lo a coin debt, as was done by the act, of congress of March 18, 1808. D. L. Kost, Cb'mii Joint Com. on Finance and Resolutions. The Experiences ot a Circus Rider. Uobert Stlekncy, the circus rider, has been telling ihn New York Sim something about bare-back riding. I la said : "I have been in tho business ever since I can remember. Yes, evou boforo I can remember. For when 1 was only a year old the great Edwin Forrest carried ma on the st ago when he was playing 'Holla.' My. father, 8.1. Siickuey, was the lirst man In iho world whoever sit foot over lour horses In tho ring ; so you see 1 camo ol riding stock. "My appearauco in 'Holla' can hardly be said lo bo Iho commence- moiit of my carcor as a rider, but I dalo that from (he lime when, In my 8th year, In tho old theatre, at Eighth and Walnut Streets, Philadelphia, I made my debut boforo the public In Iho character of the Courier of Si. Pulersburg. In thoso days I rmlo with a pad did until I wan 10 years old, when I began to do bare-back acts, and over since I have always dis carded Iho pad." "Is there much difference hot wen u pad'i'ldiug and hare-bsek riding, that Is as to Its dlfflenlty ?" "Any bare-back rltlerjcan ride with tho pud, but not every pad-rider can rido bare-back. I began barobaek rid ing early, but had the advantage of my father's advice and of watching him ride. Pretty soon niter I began bare-back t illing, and while I was yet a more boy, I began two-horse acts, and Dually was able In ride tho four horses wiiti as little ellort a one. Of cntirso I have been all through the va rious branches of tumbling, as part ot my riding education, fur it I couldn't tumble and turn eoiuersuulti well on tho (round I couldn't do it on the horeo. As lo the ordinary jumping through the bantiera and all that, eoit of work, that'e the plain sailing ol the rider. Jumping through tho ban ner wliilo in tho uctcf evolving or revolving a somersault, doesn't add to the dlfflenlty of tho task, though people think so. One of the difficult things about it Is that you must reg ulate tho velocity of your somor shult by Iho speed of your horse, and that Is why an even, steady-going horso Is a treasure to any rider. "You ask mo if I can take any horso and leach him hi part of the ring busluos. Certainty, for horses are exceedingly Intelligent, more to than many men, as any old cavalry or artillery officer will tell you. Of course, soino horses are more easily taught than others, and tho purer a hoi su's blood is, as a general rule, the easier lie is lo teach. But a horso that shies Is worthless lo us. When wo mako n flip-flop wo must find tho horso under us, and wo must know whero our feet are going to be when wo coiiio down. I was seriously hurt once. Just a 1 was In mid-air, while throwing a somersault, u can non was fired near the building. Tho horso was token by surprise, shied oil Involuntarily, and when I ought to have come right side up with care there was no horso there. 1 fell flat on my back on the tan, and hurt mysolf a good dual. Yes, the horso Is very intelligent, and if bo can only understand what you want him lo do ho will generally try lo do it to the best of his ability." "About slipping? Yes, one has to look out for this. You know, of course, that wo rosin our slippers thoroughly, but did you know the horse's back is llberally.roslued, too ? If that wasn't done Ihu horse's per spiration would very soon make Iho bit of rosin on Iho slippers useless, and, even is It Is, when iho night is warm and the horso perspires freely, digging tho Iocs In for a grip will bunch up tho hair into littlo balls, making the hold uneven, or the hair coming out will make the horse's back so slippery that it becomes very dilllcult to hold on. Down South the darkles think thero Is loudttone put on a horse's back. "As to riding moro than four horses at n time, unless ono U very lull and has a pair ot India rubber legs, I think it would be impossible, as it la now for a very short-legged man to ride four. Thero is a limit to tho compass properties of the human leg. "Tho horso has to learn hi part as well as tho rider, lo become as much a part ol iho rider when lie is on his back as tho ancients' fabled Centaur He must learn to keep his gait oven and steady, and lo obey even tho preasuro of tho foot in certain w ays Tho rider musu't put his font down on any and every part of the animal's back or he will destroy Iho mutual oquilibilum. If a horso feels your loot two or three inches nut of tho way, and in a different placo from where lie expects It when you light nn him, It is apt to dlscninpnso him. As to what kind of treatment I give my horses, I can only say that I have a horse that knows my voice before he sovs me, and whinnies with de light. I have always un apple or a bit of carrot or a lump ot sugar ub.itit me when I go near whore ho Is, and we are on tho best of lei in. Don't I sometimes have 10 conquer a horse if he gels a stubborn or sulky lit on? Certainly, and If I don't do It It will render the horso worthless. Tho cruelty is only apparent, how ever. A little temporary severity is a roil Kindness lo Iho horso. Sumo of the trick horses are very danger ous and vicious, especially Ihu pin bald ones. This mostly comes of leasing thorn during Ihclr training lo make them bright and lively, but it is not really necessary, and some Irick horses are as gentle as lambsa A horse gets to know his biiiuess and lo like it, ihu same as a rider duos. An expert in his profession, ho It acting, variety, or circus per forming, seldom quits it." Wo are (old Hist Ihn smallest hair throws a shadow. Ami so It dues. It throws a shallow over your appetite when you dud It iu your vlctuiia. Hew Much Room In Hssven. Col. Swlixlor, of the Columbia Stutetman, becoming anxlotte about the capacity of Heaven, asks: "How much room In Heaven ?" Thereupon Tom Carter, of the Sturgeon Lender, procoeds lo Iho measurement as given inutile Apocalyptic vision ol St. John: "And he measured tho cltv Willi a reel, twelve thousand fur longs ; tho length and breadth and t ho hoight of It aro equal." (Iter, xxl 10. He says : Twelve thousand furlongs aro 7.020,000 foot, wnlch being cubed, gives 490,762,080,000.000,000,000 cu bical feci. Now, reserve one-half of tho above for tho throne of God and tho court of glory, and one half of tho remainder lor streets ami dlvldo Iho remaining fourth namely, 124,. 108.272,000.000.000.000-by 4,090 the tiuiubor or cubical feet in a room 1G foot squsro ami 1G foot high, and Ihu product Is 3,0:,181,372,000.000 rooms. Now suppose this earth alwav did and always will contain nine hundred millions of Inhabitants from now until Hie expiration of 100,000, 000 years, and that a generation con tinues thlrty-ilueo nud a third years) or that 2,700,000,000 persons pass into haaveii every hundred yeurs, and that 1,128 such worlds existed, equal in duration, in population and In con tribution to the population of heaven, there would be a room sixteen feet square and sixteen leet high fur each, and yet thero would bo room 84,873 rooms unoccupied. Eclipse for 1878. Thero will be four eclipses during tho year 1878, two of each luminary, a follows : An annular eel Ipso of tho hun near 2 o clock in iho iiiumin;; of February '2, which will therefore bo invisible to Iho people on this part of the earth's surface. It will be partially vlslbla from nearly tint wholo of Australia, but from neither of the continent, Its northern limit bciuj; Iho southernmost capes of Asia and Alrlca. A partial eclipse of tho moon on the morning ol February 17, visible from tho United Stales. The moon will enter the earth's shadow at 3h. 62 1-2iii. a. m., and lcavo at Ch. 48 3 8m. a. m. At fill. 21m., the middle of the eclipse, 0.84 of tho moon's diamoter will bo obscured. Tho Unto Is nol favorable for general observation from this section. A total eclipso of the sun July 29, Vlslhlo to all parts of North Amorica. The Hun of totality runs through Kaintschalka, Delirium's straits, Alaska, llrlllslt America, western Montana, Wyoming, western Colo rado, passing about ono decree south west of Dunvor City, nml across Texas to tho Gull' of Mexico, near Galveston city. A partial eclipso of tho moon in tho nftnrnnan and evening of August 12. The moon will enter tho a'mdow at 4 i.
