Mr. Hchurz, wlip voluntarily resigned tlio
high plnco which ho held In tlio estimation
of tlio people, now occupies, a very peculiar
position. Whilst condemning Grant ho U
holds Grnntlsm and sees la Mr. Hayes, the
Republican candldnto for President, that
model reformer who Is to revolutionize tho
present system of government and restoro to
in that puro and honest administration of
affairs which prevailed before tho war. In
view of tho fact that tho men who aro word
ing most vigorously for Mr, Hayes, aro tlio
ardent supporters of Grant, it Is dilllcult to
understand how this can ho true. Nor is
this opinion of Mr. Schurz shared by the
majority of his countrymen, Uoth East and
West, thoso Germans who aro men of In
fluenco and standing In tho community have
repudiated thovlowsof Mr. Schurz and such
men as ex-Gov. Mueller and Mr. Pulitzer
have utterly refuted his arguments. It is no
louncr a matter of. doubt that Mr. Schurz
has lost tho high regard of tho GermahB
which ho undoubtedly onco possessed and
cat) no longer be considered a leader.
Mr. Schurz when In Congress fought man
fully against corruption in high places and
denounced tho rottenness of tho ltcpubll
can party with such vigor and earnestness
that ho was turnod out of the party, and
yet ho now returns to tho political society of
tho men who woro instrumental in his ex
pulsion from tho llepubllcan fold and sup'
ports an exponent of those very abuses
which ho formerly condemned. llumilia
ting iudecd is bis positiou, but thero Is a
worse feature yet to be considered. Eo
publlsans of tho lllalno and Morton stripe
have lost faith in him. Since he entered
into the campaign he has been curbed In his
utterances and treated with distrust. As he
has lost tho confidence of the radical lie'
publicans, the Liberals and tlio Democrats
ho may now actually bo considered a man
without a part). It Is raro Indeed that a
mai of such merit commits political suicide,
Unless Mr.Schurz joins old' Peter Cooper's
greenback party wo aro at a loss to k.now
exactly what Is to become of him. They
need recruits and would doubtloss wolcome
with open arms an orator of such ability, al
though ho may have temporarily lapsed Into
a demagogue.
As a leader among mon Mr. SchurzVca
rccr may bo considered ended. As
brilliant speaker and ingenious theorist be
will always find admirers,but as a statesman
ho will have few followers, because as
statesman he has been a failure. It Is somo
what sad to contemplate bucIi a gloomy
ending to a promising career.
HAYES AND A SECOND TERM.
In his letter of acceptanco Mr. Hayes
announces that ho will not consent to a ro
election to tho Presidency for a second term
When wo recall the fact that neither the
Cincinnati nor St. Louis Conventions said
anything about a second term, it seems that
Mr. Hayes in a littte hasty in. making such
a promise, first, because he is by no means
certain of being elected .for the, firtl term
and secondly because there is no legal bar to
a re-election if the people of the uaited
States choose to return a good man for a sec
ond term. The precedent f a second term
was established by the first President of the
Nation, and has been followed 1 many
cue since. This promise or Mr. Hayes, un
called tor as it was, is simply an -ocknowl
edgement on his part of his total Inefficiency
for the position, and in effect he says that
he will be satisfied with one term, because
ha knows that after the expiration of that
term the people will waut no triore of him.
But suppose he should be elected, and prove
his incapacity by his administration of na
tional affairs, have the people any guaranty
that he will keep his promise? Will he not
use all his party machinery to secure a sec
ond nomination?
He has said much about reform, and to
show he means what he says In that respect,
he baa promised' to keep all tho Grant office
holders in office ; ti.at ho doe not believe in
changing all the government officials every
time a new president is elected. The great
est evil with which wo are to-day beset is
the corruption and fraud practiced by these
very men whom Hayes promises to keep in
office. Can thero be a Bingle element of re
form in a candidate who starts in tho very
outset with such a declaration as this? What
tlie people want is a change, and this can
only be effected by the election of a man
who promises true and complete reform, and
who has shown himself capable ot kocplug
his promise by the manner in which ho has
administered tho affairs of his state. That
man Is Samuel J. Tildkn.
THE MAINE ELECTION.
The Republican journals throughout the
country are making a great noise about their
gloriout tictory In Maine. Let us see how
the figures bear them out. The hut two Pres
idential elections iu that State resulted as
follows :
1 fir,R.
Grant.
70,420.
Seymour,
Republican majority.
1872.
Grant.
Greeley.
G1.422
32,335
The Republican majority in 1872 for Gov
ernor was 17,200. This year it is nut over
15,000 If it reaches that. Tho tidal wave
that we discover in these figures is decidedly
Democratic.
Tho New York Herald having gone over
body aud soul to tho Republicans, tho clec
tlou of Tildon may J now bo regarded as a
foregone conclusion. It Is a fact of ludls
putable record that no Presidential candi
date orlglually supported by the Herald has
ever been elected. We theieforo fuel yery
grateful to Mr. Bennett for having sided
with the Republicans.
After listening attentively to the speech
of Carl Schurz, in Cleveland, in lavor of

The Colored Vote.
It is fighting against inevitable fate for
tho Republicans to contend for a united col
ored vote hereafter, either north or south.
The day for that kind of monopoly has pass
ed. When a Democratic colored club can
mustor in strength sufficient to provoke the
ire of all the Republican negroes in a city,
tho indications clearly aro that the disaffec
tion will be largo throughout tho State. In
Goorgia It Is claimed that full 30,000 colored
voters have joined the Democrats, and1 will
vote' for Tilden, and intelligence of like
character comes to us from Arkansas, Missis
sippi, Alabama and Louisiana. The day
when tho llepubllcan party carried the
colored vote in its breeches pocket has pass
ed, to return no more forever. Phila.

It is a humorous concern that "greenback"
party, headed as it is by two men so very
unlike as Peter Cooper and Sam Cary. Mr,
Cooper is a very benevolent old gentlemen
of eighty six, who, having made a fortune
in glue may, probably, be relied on to stick
to his nomination. He possesses no political
strength whatever, personally, and indeed is
llttlo known out of New York city. Sam

man of such exceeding popularity in his,
own stain, that when ruunimr for the office of
Lieut. Governor, he fellome MOO votes be-

careful of Mr. Cooper. Excitement at his
sge is always dangerous
Sixty years ago, occurred "tho year with
out a summer." 'Frost occurred iu every
month of the year 1810. Ice formed half
an inch thick in May ; snow fell to the
depth of ten inches in Vermont, seven in
Maine, three in the interior of New York;
and also in Massachusetts in June ; ico was
formed of the thickness of common window

and some parts of Pennsylvania on the 5th
of July ; Indian com was so frozen that the
greater part was cut down and dried for

II. If that Stato has a (stato bank rate the
national bank may tako that ralo.
III. If thero Is uo Statu rate, the national
bank may tako seven percent and no mure,
IV. Any rate a national bank may tako
It may tako in advance,
V. Charging a greater rato than above
allowed subjects tho bank to n forfeiture ol
tho wholo Interest charged, but to no other

VI. Receiving n greater rate than above
allowed renders the batik liable, at any time
within two ycata from the dato of tlio tram

tvvlco tho whole amount ol the interest paid,
but nd other penalty or suit.

It will thus be seen that Stato usury laws
arc no. applicable to a national banic unucr
any circumstances, and that Stato rates ol
Interest arc applicable not by reason of any
inherent force in tho State laws prescribing
them, but simply because tho national bank
net selects thoso rates as matter of convo

2. IIo lias lor thrco years mado false oath

3. IIo has sworn that in 1874 his. proper

liable to bo taxed turned $00,000.
4. He has refused for threo years to list

7. He had three horses in 1874, and swore

How to Yaniptisli tlio Stomach's Tormen
tor. If tho Kucinv of mankind was permitted
to exert his diabolical ingenuity in the in
vention of a new disease, he could scarcely
devise one moro worthy of his genius than
dyspepsia. The dyspeptic sufferer is tormen
ted by symptoms resembling those of almost
dvery known malady, and is often worried
into monomania by these couilicling ami
perplexing manifestations. A favorite
though absurd hallucination of tho victim
of chronic indigestion is that he or she has
heart disease. Dyspepsia has ollen uceu
pronounced incuiablp, but experienco has
shown that Ho3tetter's Stomach Hitters will
vanquish it, together witli tho constipation
nud bilious derangement which usually ac
company it. Discuses of the kidneys nml
supposed rheumatic pains aro also frequent
concomitants of dyspepsia, but they, too,
succumb to tlio above named invaluable cor
rective. September lni.
