During tho past week Mr. Vnntler
liilt has hml a judgment entered up
agnlnst Qcncrnl Grant fof something
tnoro thnn nno hundred and fifty-five
thousand dollars. It is said tlmt this
wns dono moroly to preserve tho evi
dence of debt nnd tlmt ttio old General
will not bo pushed with an execution.
Thoro is a dugreo of undnops in the
fitmtiuml ntllietions of this old warrior.
Tho hundred and fifty thousnnd dol
lars the General borrowed of Vnnder
hilt tho day before tho failure of Grant
& Ward is the basis of this claim ; the
livo thousand is for interest. To meet
this obligation tho hero of Appomat
tox transferred to Mr. Vnnderbilt Im
mediately after tho failure- all his real
cstato in Philadelphia, Washington
and St. Louis. All tho yAnsn of prop
erty bo turned wero gifts from frimids,
but it was all swept awav in the finan
cial whirlpool which Ward and Fisk
created. General Grant by this act
gavo up all real cstato ho had to keep
his word to a friend and he has noth
ing left except tho income from $250,
000 that is held in trust for him. This
linancial crash has borno moro heavily
upon him than ovcry other trial of his
lifo put together and ho seems to bo
ageing rapidly. Ho is now engaged
in writing a review of his military
campaigns, which will make two large
volumes. It is expected that thoy will
both be ready for publication within a
year. After thoy aro finished ho will
writo another book, giving his political
experiences from the surrender of Ap
pomattox to tho present time. Ex
Senator Chaffee, who gavo this infor
mation about General Grant's spirit
and purposes, B.Vul that this last book
will bo ono of tho most interesting
books historically that has yet been
given to tho country, as it will cover
an insido view of Andrew Johnson's
administration, of which very littlo is
known. Besides this book work which
General Grant has undertaken, ho is
soon to writu a paper for tho Century
Magazine upon "Tho Battlo of Shi
loh." N. Y. Letter to 1'hila. Times.
The Gripes of the "World.
1
Like tho rest of us, Mr. Gripo is pre
paring for Christmas. Ho has settled
all his little bills, oven paid his work
men yesterday, in tho middle of the
month, instead of at tho end. If he
had dropped a single pleasant word
about Christmas they would have
thought that ho did it in order that
they, too, might enjoy tho holy day
with tho rest of the world. But ho
counted out tho money with his usual
calm, icy politeness; and they made
suro as thoy went out that "old Gripo
only wanted to square his accounts."
He has just bought a now set of glass
for his wife, and something for each of
tho girls. But the things will bo sent
to them direct from the shops, with no
word or greeting from him, and, if
thoy veuturo to thank him, ho will not
glanco up from his paper as ho an
swers : "I am glad you aro satisfied. I
supposed you needed them." The
children are in doubt whether ho really
knows it is Christmas after all,andisnot
simply renewing theirsupplies, as usual.
John Gripe is so far a Nihilist that
if ho believes or feels anything, ho says
nothing. Ho was a calm baby. His
mother never know whether her kisses
pleased or bored him. As he grew up
ho was always perfectly civil and kind
to her, and for yoars after his father
and brothers died gavo her a place un
der his roof. Whilo she lived there
(the others all being dead and gone)
the yeaw stretched out long and lone
ly to the old woman, and tho world
yawned empty about her. Her clothes
and food wero of the best, every want
was supplied. But thero were days
when sho would have given all that
lifo had held for her for a single ten
der word, for a loving touch from a
child's hand. John never gave them
to hor. lie did his duty, however, to
her fully, until he had laid her under
ground.
He fulfilled his duty to wife and
children in tho same way. Ho keeps
his account accurately clear with his
Maker, subscribes to all chirities, occu
pies his pew regularly and listens at
lentively to tho rector. But that good
man to this day does not know whether
tho seed ho sows falls upon good
ground or on a rock. Should a stran
ger wander up the aislo Mr. Gripo is
first to courteously surrender his seat ;
but, who could imagino that fine, port
ly, well-dressed figure going into tho
highways and byways us a nv'Msenger
for his Master, and compelling tho
tramps and Magdalens to oomo in ?
John Gripo uover did a cruel deed or
spoko an unkindly word. Yet he was
never known to heartily praiso a friend,
to go out of his way to set a struggling
man on his feet, .or to utter a word ot
encouragement to any poor devil who
had sinned.
Piobably ho ftels deeply. If mi,
only Iih and God know it. Ho lings
himself complacently, it is likely, and
congratulate himself that ho is not
weakly demonstrative that ho is too
strong to dribble out his emotions in
.vords. Mint of us do tho same when
wo think wo havo hidden our genuine
feeling under a well-bred reticence.
Most of us aro like John Gripe, in a
measuio. Wo are quite- sure that we
havo a rolling Hood of religion nnd
charity in our souls, but no drippings
of it over fall on our fiieuds anil
neighbors in cordial words or friendly
acts. We mean some day to riso to
tonio heroic act to show our devotion
to wife and children, and to provo our
philanthropy. But, meanwhilo wo are
dumb. Our hearts aro all right.
Wife and children aro dear to us,
but wo didn't tell them so. We see
how that poor clerk in tho ollico strug
gles to do his work well, but wo never
Hjjeak a .word of praise to him. Every
day a hundred chances conurto us to
inuko tho lives of others easier and
more cheerful by n littlo commenda
tion, or encouragement or tcudoruess,
and we pass them by nnd do not give
it. Some day, when a lifo near to us
drops suddenly into the darkness, wo
8co how wo might havo mado it Imp
pier if wo hud spoken. But then it is
too late. Now that tho day is coming
when all tho world holds out friendly
bauds to ouch other, what shall wo dot
Tho Master Himself did not compro
mise His dignity by showing tho feel
ings that wero in Ilim. Ho wept over
Lazarus, ho praised tho heathen centu
rion, ho touched tho leper, ho held tho
littlo children in his arms. Shall wo
bo afraid to do tho same f In our own
homes, at our table, perhaps, is tho
poor heathen, tho friend, tho littlo
child waiting for us to help and bless,

The Presidential Term.
In tho Democratic Sentinel ot Deo,
12th wo read these startllne nnd sig
nificant words from its clippings: "Tho
present seems an eminently appropri
ate timo to innko some rofcrenco to tho
length of term of ofilco of tho l'rcsi
dent of this creat nation." Many oth
ors hold to this opinion. But what
nro tho tacts In tho caso 7 Our cov
eminent is an experiment, nnd sooner
or later will establish its ultlmato suc
cess, or failure. It is destined for fu-
turo crcatness-and honor nnd uncnual
cd prosperity of its froo institutions
nnd press liberty, or to crumble into a
consolidated despotism with nil tho ul
terior consequences Incident to despot
lo power, nnd Btilted to the aristocracy
rather than to tho people Tho Amer
ican idea of government will bo carried
in the one, or tho other extreme. Pa
triotism always rises above party, nnd
secures for us tho richest blessings,
and preserves the safeguards of our
liberties. Our government is yet, or
should bo in its infancy. Nevertheless,
it n.n mado unparalleled progress in
extending its boundaries, in develop
ing all its rcsouroes, mineral, agricultu
ral, mercantile and marine, in estab
lishing institutions of learning and of
charily, in providing Industries for the
laboring classes nud In manufactured
products. Its rail road systems, post
lines, river navigation and general
traffic have no equal in any of tho na
tions of tho earth. In fact all the fa
cilities nnd avenues in nil tho walks
and pursuits in lifo are guaranteed to,
and enjoyed by tho humblost citizen as
well as by tho" most exalted. It was
sufficient for tho original three millions
with limited "business'' and small "com
binations" and for all its subsequent
increase until it reaches tho enormous
proportions of upward of fifty millions
with unlimited "business" nnd "vast
combinations,'' aud will continue to bo
sufficient until it shall number oOO mil
lions, with "business," wealth nnd oth
er "combinations multiplied in & ten
fold ratio notwithstanding. It is n
perfect form of Republican govern
ment, consisting of three co-equal, in
dependent branches, blended into ono
harmonious whole, viz: the Executive,
Legislative and Judicial. Eacli with
Us inferior, or subordinate brandies
perfects an organism which extends to
tho most rcmoto precinct, or even to
tho individual citizen. It was cither
miraculous or presumptions. If the
former, wo shall believe that the
framers of tho Constitution wero in
spired, for tho "powers that be are or
dained of God." If tho latter, they
suited themselves to surrounding cir
cumstances. In either event they dis
played unexampled wisdom and states
manship in framing a government
suited to their wants, and to tho wants
of their posterity forever. Tho present
tenure of tho presidential incumbents
has been wisely sufficient in all tho
pnst and will bo equally so in tho fu
ture. Says tho writer "uueiness inter
ests which a hundred years ago wero
so limited aud slight in comparison
with tho vast combinations which sway
tho land to day imperatively demand
consideration of a change in this re
spect." The ebb and flow of tho busi
ness tido of tho financial current
throughout all their various channels
are a healthy purgative in all business
circles, and attended with countless
blessings, though some may be swept
from tho shores of seeming security
through unsubstantial financial founda
tions, or iudiscreet investments, and
tho whole business systems may be nf
fectcd thereby for a few days, when it
again starts up anew as if by magic.
While it admonishes economy and
prudence on tho one hand.it also invites
enterprise, risk and perseverance on
tho other. To admit therefore that
tho exigencies of tho times absolutely
demand a longer presidential term is
a virtual acknowledgment that our
government has attained to the full de
velopment and stature of governmen
tal manhood, nnd is in tho zenith of
its glory, power, influence and useful
ness to servo its people, and therefore
ready to reclino into tho arms of mon
archy by incorporating into tho body
politic, and into the fundamental such
initiatory and effective steps toward its
final consummation. It would be Cai
sar crossing the Rubicon with all its
consequences, repeated. If wo have a
bad executive, four years is already
too long a term, and if a good ono, if
need be ho can bo re-elected, yet ono
term should always be sufficient. Tho
writer further says, "and a wide spread
feeling is rapidly gaining ground that
the oxcitemcnt of a general election is
something too serious in nature and
consequence to be precipitated upon
tho country as oiten as at present."
Supposo then, tho term be lengthened
to six, eight or ten years what then I
Would not a longer term only seive to
intensify excitement moro desperately
and moro bitterly, nnd thus provo a
necessity to do away with presidential
elections altogether T And what it
sought to euro would bo ma jo moro in
tolerable to endure. Nay, verily, ex
citement is good for tho people. It
gives tho nation life, energy and hope.
Let political storms, hurricanes, and
cyclones sweep over tho country every
four years, and carry away its corrup
tion. And the "tree of liberty" will
strike its roots deeper into freedom's
soil. Our people thereby become bet
ter acquainted witli our form of govern
ment nnd its requirements, and will
read and study moro concerning its
functions and its needs during cam
paign years, than all others combined,
which moro than compensate for tho
business depression which sometimes
accompanies exciting election. Thero
is, Iiowotoi, an antidote that would
prevent much oxoitoment in general
elections, aud that is to abolish all state
elections previous to the general No
vember elections.

James G, Blaiuo dismissed his libel
suit against the Sentinel in tho United
States court at Indianapolis on the

ho could not get justice in Indian!.
It was to bo tried on tho 23d in

(o nnd tho matter at once taken ii
and the libel reproduced with nil possi
bio exaggeration in every domooratlo
paper in Indiana. Except from thrco
members ot tho dcmocrntlo party ot
that state, l novcr heard that n word
of dissent or disapproval was Bpoken,
whilo tho great mass of the democratic
speakers repeated tho libel from every
stump in Indiana with vituporntlvo
rancor, with gibe nnd ribald jest. It
was thus made, so far as any matter of
tho kind could bo made, an issue in nn
exciting politico! campaign, and tho
democrats ot tho state were thorougl
ly poisoned in their minds in regard
to tho question to tie decided nt law.
Under such conditions It is simply
impossible that 1 cm have n lair trial
or that 1 can oxpetit any other result
thnn that which uniformly nttends n
political libel suit, growing out of nn
exciting campaign in this country. If
1 were unfair enough to desire a jurv
composed of my own partisans I could
not have it. A properly constituted

ocrats could not bo found in tho State
who, in a political suit, would give n
verdict against their leading party or

nn imputation upon their personal in
tegrity ns citizens, but simply that tho
blinding of partv prejudice would ut
terly prevent an impartial considera
tion ot the evidence submitted. I am
perfectly ablo to light tho Sentinel
newspaper in nn Indiana court, but I
would stand no chance whatever

Democratic party of tho State with

Mr. Blaiuo forgets that tho attack
on him was made after tho baso slan
ders against Governor Cleveland wero
put in circulation with his knowledge
and consent. Tho course of tho Sen
tincl was unjustifiable, but it was no
worso than that of many Republican
papers that grossly libelled the Demo
cratic candidate.
Turning the Oorner.
Confidence among capitalists nnd
business men lias increased steadily
since the election of Gov. Cleveland lo
the Presidency, and there is at tho pre
sent timo a very general feeling that
wo aro about turning tho corner in tho
mercantile and industrial affairs of tho
country. This may bo accounted for
in great part by tho beliet that the
Democratic party will bend its energies
in tho direction of securing relief to
trade and commerce from such restric
tions and burdens as havo borne heav
ily upon them for a long time past. It
is this belief which lias induced some
manufacturers to res timo operations
and which is causing a more liberal in
vestment of capital. The banks aro
overburdened with money but ihore is
good ground for tho belief that this
die capital will soon nnd prohtablo em
ployment. All sorts of commodities
have gravitated towards hard pan and
already a tendency to improvement is
discernible in several directions. The
disposition now is to buy on reactions,
whereas Jormorlv every rally was tol-
lowed by a pressure to sell. This is as
true of the metals, dry goods and other
trades as it is of tho markets for cereals
and stocks and bonds. Iron nnd steel,
while they show no marked recovery,
havo of lato certainly been steadier than
during tho early part of the year ; cot
ton, corn and wheat rctuse to respond
as readily to tho manipulations of
bear operators and securities keep up
tairly well despite railroad wars and
tho like.
Tho country is adding to its solid
wealth by largo exports of its varied
products and by its moderato consump
tion of foreign goods. The result of
this has already been witnessed iu an
influx of tho precious metals from Eu
ropo of sufficient magnitude to comprl
the Bank of England directors to adopt
measures to prevent its continuance.

Arrested for Murder.
AKTUIt SEVEN YEARS THE OAI.LENDEU
UTSTKRY.
On Wednesday of last week, says
tho Wilkes-Barro Jlecord, William
Judson Garrison, 27 years of ago, a
well known character in Luzemo
county, was taken to Wilkesbarro and
lodged in jail on suspicion of being
ono of tho murderers of Philip Callen
der, who was assassinated on a lonely
mountain road near llunlock s Creek
nearly seven years ago. Garrrieon lias
of lato been employed as a teamster for
Theodore Renshaw of Plymouth, but
was arrested by Constablo Bean on the
strength of certain evidence which has
not yet come to light. Ho had recent
ly been discharged from tho State Hos
pital for tho insane, in which ho was
placed a year or so ago, tho tieatment
having brought about what was con
sidered a cure of IiIh mental disorder.
It is not unlikely that thero is a recur
rence of tho malady and that ho has
been making insane remarks which
have been interpreted as pointing to
him as tho murderer. This seeems
moro thnn likely, as there never was
anything about him which stamped
him as n murderer.
Garrison is the individual who croa-
ted such a sensation a littlo over n vear
ago, by becoming a raving maniac im
mediately after his marriage, and being
published all over the country as one
of tho most remarkable cases on record,
On the 4th of September, 1883 lie wos
married to a most respectable young
woman of Ilnntsville, Justice Ander
son tying tho nuptial knot. Tho fol
lowing Is taken from tho Jlecord of
Sept. 7, 1883 : Whilo tho 'Squire wa
busily engaged filling up a blank mar
riage certificate witli the names of the
supposed happy pair, u scene was en
acted that does not often occur on tin
did occasions. Tho newly made hus
band commenced In an incoherent
manner about- being inspired uf God to
do wonderful things, nud what ho
could do by Divino help promised from
on high, aud in order to provo that ho
was no idle boaster, ho commenced a
violent onslaught upon such articles of
fumituro as happened to bo in the
room. After demolishing almost oy.
erythlng breakable within his reach he
rushed out of tho house, stripped off
tho greater part of his clothing and
rushed down toward tho brulgo that
spans tho outlet, where ho wiu caught
by n fisherman.
After being secured ho l;ecamo moro
calm, nnd promised that if they would
tnko him to his father-in law's house he
would willingly ncconipnny his cap
tors. Ho wns accordingly tnken to Mr.
Bognrt's, where he spent the night
quietly nnd appropriately with the
family, hi-' previous frenzy hav
ing temporarily subsided. Early in
tho morning nrrangemenls wero renew
ed for bringing him to Wllkes-Barre,
in pnrsuaiioo of a commitment made
out by Justice Anderson tho evening
before', when he immediately relapsed
into his former condition of violence.
ami vigorously resisted any effort to
force him from the house. Ho win
Anally overpowcied by three or four
persons who happened to bo within
caning distance, wun securely Pound
him with cords, nnd tied him up in a
blanket, after stripping nearly all tho
clothing from his body in their effort
to secure him, in which condition they
Iclivercd him over to tho prison war
den for safo keeping. The young man
has novcr before been known to exhib
it nny pronounced symptoms of insan
ity, though his family is not free from
tho taint, his mothor having been of
unsound mind. Ho is about twenty
five years of ago and has lattoily homo
n fnir record, though ho was once sent
to tho Eastern Penitentiary from Wy
oming county under a conviction for
aroeny.
A representative was shown to the
'crazy cell" in which tho new groom
wns confined. Ho wns in a state of
nudity, and in front of his cell door
lay llio remains of wlnt had been a
straw bed. The tick was torn into
shreds, and tho straw lay scattered on
tho stono floor. There wns nothing in
tho cell by wny of furniture. Tho pris
oner was clapping his hands excitedly,
and continually crying "I'm Lord ot
Lords, nnd King of Kings. I'm iu the
gall of bitterness aud the bond of in
jqtiity.'' He then seized hold of the
iron door saying that ho was a second
Sampson, endeavored to wrench jt from
ts fastening", at the same time pour
ing fortli n torrent of blasphemy inter
spersed with occasional scripturo quo
tations. While in his cell ho managed
to seizo an attendant by tho hnir, nor
would ho let go till his hands were
pounded with the keys until they bled.
At tho sight of tho sanguinary" drops
he cried out, "Behold tho Lamb of
God which taketh away tho sins of tho
world I" Ho has persistently refus
ed food since his arrival at the conntv
prison, and when his meals wero brought
to him he spitefully threw the food at
tho door keeper through tho opening
in tho door.
Philip Callcnder was a prominent
resident of Ross township, who had a
store at Mndisonviln a few miles from
nunloek's Creek. On tho lGth of Jan
nary, 1878, ho was in Plymouth attend-
ng a law suit before a insticc. Tho
case was decided in bis favor and ac
companied by his son ho started for
homo in his conveyance taking tho old
Union road. About dark when they
had reached a point half a mile from
Hunlock's Creek, two shots wero fired
from behind them, ono striking
Mr. Callcnder in tho head and
killing him instantly, tho other passing
through his son's hat. Tho latter sav
two men disappear in the thicket. Mr.
Callcnder was a prominent citizen in
tho community where he lived, and
was not known to havo an enemy.
Tho tragedy caused great excitement
and tho perpetrators would have been
promptly lynched had they not suc
ceeded in making good their escape.
Soon nfter tho murder two men, one
ot whom wns Thomas Uonyard, were
arrested and placed on trial for the
crime. The evidence against them
was insufficient and they wero acquit
ted. What "Bob" Ingersoll Thinks.
TUICN1N0 TIIU RUl'UIlUCANS OUT WILT,
NOT SEND THE WORLD TO WRECK.
Col. Robert G. Ingeisoll, who is on a
leoturiiiK tour, said in his recent inter
view regarding what might be expect
ed ot Cleveland s Administration :
"The Democrats are as anxious for
good times as the Republicans. The)
want good money. Responsibility
makes them conservative. Thoy havo
success in 1888 in view. That will
make thorn prudent, and thero is no
doubt Cleveland will do his level best
to make his Administration a good one,
and the probability is ho will succeed.
I don't think that putting tho Republi
can party out of ollico will send the
world to wreck. There are as many
Republicans now as before the election.
Thoy will have an inlluonco that the
Democratic party will bo compelled to
respect. If Cloveland does well, as ho
probably will do, it will show that tho
country is safe in the hands of either
party."
As to tho effect of religious ques
tions on the campaign, thu Colonel
said :
"The Protestants wero generally for
Blaine, except tho Unitarians and
Episcopalians the northern Protes
tants of course. Mr. Blaine's mana
gers expected holp from tho Catholio
vote, but it is not to bo oxpeeted that
tho Catholics would largely suppoita
man who had been born a Catholio
and had deserted tho Church. That
meeting of tho clergy in New York
did great harm. Tho people at largo
have no confidence in pieaohtrs. They
fear the old ecclesiastical spirit, and
they want no President guided by
priests or a spiiitual adviser. Tho peo
le are not afraid of a preacher in tho
pulpit, but when ooe gels loose they
regard the situation ns uusafev"
