In Loulsvllltff on the 12tli ofOotober, will

ether Konlletnuu of' great prominence

try that tnuy nhooao to participate In tho
dollberuttons of the convention.
No city in the (Jul ted Btittet Is moro
deeply Interested In the work that will
lotno before the convention tlmn tho city'
of Cairo. Hue U vltallv concerned in the
navigation of pur Western and Southern
rlvere, and much of her futuro prosperity
depends upon the comlruetion of tho In
tcrnatiouul Pacific railroad. These will
form the prominent tonic in the con ven
tlon, and we look forward with high
hopes to thecfiVctof the action they muy
call forth.
Anticipating action on tho Southern

jimi mutt eventually be the great point
of connection with the railroads acro-n
the continent, from the Hast, South and
North, Tlil convention will he com
posed of the limit talented commercial
men in the country, and we think, after
mature deliberation that they will re
woinmond, to Cou,'rejj, the Cairo fc Ful

In that convention Cairo must be rep
resented, and represented by our bent

While all there cuuntivrt xhow an In
creaie indicative of an honest, coiihcI
entloiia valuation, many of tho counties
north, without any uppureut cause, Miow
au alarming deureaie. It U to be hoped
that tho hoard of equalization will look
into this matter. For instance: Why
should tho value of Henry couuty'n tax
able cflecU decrease $2,050,730? Why u
decrease of 1,230,7-14 In Kane county ; a
decreaso of Sl,5-i7,SSt) in Richland';
$1,654,750111 Clinton?
Tho city of Qulncy with her 40,000 in
habitants, payH a tax on ?5,GI5,O00. Tho
city of Cairo, with 10,000 inhabitants
payn a tax on f3,000,000. There ia borne
thing wrong in thin that demands inves
tigation. A LIBERAL HI2SPOXSE,
Tho hundred and thirty-four wives,
made widows by the Avondale disaster,
will be mude comfortable for tho balaiico
of their Hvcb, so fur as this world's goods
can make them so. Tho appeal in their
behalf Is gonerous aid almost universal.
From all quarters money is pouring in,
and wo are toid that from present ap
pearances It is prolmblo that the sum of
5260,000 will be raised aud forwarded
within a mouth. U is specially note
worthy that most of tho collections nro
mudo in small sums, varying from'Sl to
$10, thus showing that sympathy with
the suirercrp Is very wide-spread, touch
ing all classes, and culling for tho
widow's inito us well an the corporation's
purso. It now remains to mako n proper
use of tills great charity, dispensing it
wisely, Impartially, promptly anil pru
dently. That ho many of tho contribu
tions are from tlinso who could 111 spare
them, makes the obligation of a wise
use of Hie fuud tho moro Imperative.
l'Ue last session of the Iowa Legislature
expended twenly-tlireo thousuiid dollars j
for nowepapors, and ton thousand dollars i
for postage stamps. This does not tell
remaiUably well for the economical pro-
ellvlties of that legislature, hut is a very i

cipltal and matihjrjng his own cibbo,
Two new candidates havo appeared, in
Gen. John C. Brown aud Jordan Stokef,
who may bo grca, men in Tennessee,
but are unknown outside of It.
Sinco tho radical annihilation in Cali
fornia! tho organs of tho iato party havo
been publishing earnest appeal to tbo
pcoplo to mako no partisan contest In tho
coming judicial election, but to cbooso
one democrat aud one republican to tlio
supreme court, to-wit, Judges Sawyer
and Crocket. The idea never occurred
to them when they thought they had n
chdiico of electing tho two nominees o
their state convention.
Col. John G. Kllnck, a veteran olilcer
of tho war and latterly one of tho ablest
of the republican speakers in tho west
ern Now York, has abandoned the re
publican party and announced his deter
mination to act hereafter with tho democ
racy. In a lettertothoRoehester'Unlon',
Col. Kllnck writes: "At tho organlza.
tlon of tho republican party, and from
thut time to the present, I have voted tho
entire ticket 'uuscratched,' never having
frpllt a ticket. In doing this I know I
haveVoted for raatiy unworthy men, hut
havo swallowed everything for the sake
of the party. I have given us much
time and money as my circumstances
would allow, 'havo stumped several of
the states, and all in all, have done a
good deal of hard work. I havo perse
cuted the democratic 'taints' as fur as In
me lay, and In all ways blocked thedem
ocratlc wheels. All this have I dono
cniirolentlousdy, and, its I thought, for
tho best interests of the county. I can
not further sustain the so-called republi
can party, and will not, and If I live
shall vote the entire democratic ticket at
tho approaching election."
THE ULTIMATUM.
'I he Hoard of Education In Cincinnati
have had under consideration, for many
weeks, the removal of such obstacles In
the public schools as are objected to by
Catholic parents. One of theso obstacles
was conceived to be the protectant bible.
To ascertain whether tho entire oblitera
tion of all K'cturlun features of the
schools would enable Catholics to enter
their children, u committee of the school
board waited upon Jilshop 1'urcell, on
Thursday last, and received from lilm
tho following ultimatum:
"The entire government of public
schools in which Catholic youth are
educated cannot be given over to civil
power. We, us Catholics, uaiiina approve
of that system of education of youth
which Is apart from Instruction In the
Catholic faith and teaching of the Catho
lic church.
If the school board can oiler anything
in conformity with these principles, ns
has been done In England, France, Can
a la, Pruesla, and other countries where
the rights of conscience lu the matter of
education have hecu fully recognized, I
am fully prepared to give it respectful
consideration." John 11. I'lmci:!,

Tlio Rochester (New York) 'Union
and Advertiser,' in referring to tho nom
ination of lion. O. II. Browning, for
member of the constitutional conven
tion speaks well of Mr. Browning, as
follows:
"Mr. Browning is one of tho ablest
statesmen in tho west lately ouo of the
pillars of tho republican party of Illinois.
He usslsted iu the organization of that
party aud drow up it first platform ; was
a member of tho Chicago convention
which nominated Lincoln in 1600; was
In June, 1S61, appointed tho successor of
the lamented Douglas in tlio United
States senate by Gov. Yates, who Is
now himself Mr. B.'s sucesssor; and
was subsequently In the cabinet ns secre
tary ol tho Interior. Blnee leaving the
hitter oilloo lie has been in political re
tirement. His emergence now as tho
democratic candidate for a seat In tho
constitutional convention of his statu
upon the platform of opposition to tho
llfteenth amendment aud kindred fed
eral encroachments upon the reserved
rights of tho states, 1 one of the signifi
cant evidences of tho quiet abandonment
of tho republican party by many of the
men who gave It life and character In
tho better years of its existence."

home one has drawn up a rery correct
bill of Indictment ugalnst tho radical
party. It Is one that can bo sustained by
facts and figures. In this bill of ludlct
ment tlio radical leaders stand charged
with calling themselves Unionists they
have consummated and inanltalned dis
union. AU'ectlug economy, they havo
given us the costliest government on
earth. Prating of virtue, they mudo it
the most corrupt. Clamoring for equal
rights, they have proscribed moro peo
ple than any monarchy iu Christendom.
Invoking freedom, they established and
maintained tho darkest despotism lu
eleven stales. Professing toleration,
they proclaim ucceptaucu of their creed
the alternative of ostracism and dis
franchisement. Howling nbout purify
ing the government, they havo mado
dishonesty and ofilco holding identical.
Preaching principle, they subsist by
pasioii aud prejudice Deploring caste,
thoy olovato blacks abovo the whites In
two-thirds of the country. Magnifying
loyalty, they trample out every worthy
principle or our system. Claiming states
manship, their otllcials nre cither con
spirators or thUves. Lauding independ
ence, they are tho servile slaves of a
party calicu. Proteudlng to invito criti
cism, they stifle freedom of debate in
congress by partisan rule, and drown
t elsewhere in blood. Insisting upon
peace, they prolong tho old strlfo to stir
up a new one.
Tho number of detectives engaged in
hunting up and doteotlng frauds on the
revenue are legion. The frauds in tho
tobacco and whisky business are num
berless. Daily and hourly, all over the
country, the detectives are, aa a general
rule, a bigger sot of rascals than the par
ties they detect and arrest, and a few
greenbacks qulotly handed over, settles
the question. Some other system for
collecting tho revenue thuu tlio one now
iu operation, will havo to bo adopted.
Th present ouo ought to be called u sys
tem to encourugu rascality Instead of one
to collect revenue.
