One of the argument* of the radt
calc, last presidential campaign
against the election of Greoly, waa,
that a defeat of Grant would disturb
the financial matters of the country.
We tiow soe that Grant's election has
brought about that condition of af
fairs in its worst |**sible shape.
w • S#- """
The vote cast in tbia county ou last
Tuesday, was a light one. hundred,
did not go to the polls. Ihe case i
the same throughout the state—no
where has a fall vote been cost.
Those minor elections are often of the
utmost importance, and the ciliseo
who stays away from the polls because
no presideut or goveruor is to 1* elect
ed, neglects an iaipoi taut duty.

President Ought to l>o.
[Ftvm the *Vw Pari Tribnte ]
The most alarming development of
the time, however, is an irregularity
in the Treasury of the United t>latrw,
By the failure of the Kii< National
Bank of Washington, the fart cantelo
light that Mr. Secretary Kichardaou
had deposited in that institution $187,-
782 of the public money without ©-
curitv. We call this an irregularity ;
is it not worse; is it not a distinct vio
lation of the Banking act. which
makes.it obligatory upon the Secreta
ry to require of the bauks chosen as
depositors of the public money "satis
factory security by the dej*ii of
United S ate# bonds or otherwise ' b>r
its "safe keepiug and prompt la
ment ?' Mr. Richardson allowed the
bank to hold $287,782 of the public
money ou the security of only f lUO,-
000 ill bonds ; and it is charged that
he did this against the remonstrances
of Treasurer Spiuner, after the un
soundnms of the bank had been ascer
tained by the official examiner.
The defaulting Presidents, and cash
iers. and secretaries, and clerks can be
puniahed by the law if they are ever
caught. The loosely mauaged h nka
and other institutions must pay the
penaltv of mismanagement iu finan
cial loss and the ruin of their busi
ness. But what shall be done with a
Secretary of the 1 reasnry who, by
disregarding the imperative provisions
of the statute for the benefit of pol iti
cal friends, allows the tuudsr f the Uoi-1
ted States to be swallowAl up in a
bankrupt institution? If President
Grant has any regard for public sen
timent and any desire to regain the
confidence of business men, he will
deal with Mr. Richardson's delinquen
cy promptly and sharply.

The SlufTTeechentare lade of.
A significant cjiumeut upon tha
capacities of many teachers cornea fmm
Elizabeth. N. J., whara applicant* f„ r
positions in the public schools have
just been examined. A dozen would,
be teachers presented themselves at
one time. The committee pro* eeded
to examine them all. There were
several positions vacant, aud it wns
hoped that out of the dozen a sufficient
uutnber would "pas-' to fill the
positions. The examination was one
eminently practical, as only piiuntry
grade certificates w re needed in ouly
four or five elementary studies. The
result was anything but satisfactory.
Twenty five words were given out to
be spelled. They were all of them
practical and iu common use every
day. One applicant spelled two cor
rectly out of the twenty-five, auother
spelled three, one or two spelled nearly
all, but none spelled every one.
"Mannagerv," "N union ia.""Paralel,"
"Nicb," "fielleta," "Crneha," "Mis
chitfoua,*' "Cropua," "Scholia rry"—
these are some of the specimen words
as copied from the examination papers
themselves. The Committee on Teach
ers insists that a candidate must re
ceive at least 70 per cent.—ouly five
reached this standard in spelling. Yet
the ones who were most deficient
thought they could get aloug if the
cjmnftttee would "on y give them s
chance." In geography theexauiination
showed up several candidates iu a
light that would have been comical
under different circumstances. The
questions and answers were b"th writ
ten. Here is a specimen:
Question —" Name several of the
principal seajiort towns of the United
States.
Answer —"New York, Massachu
setts, Maine and Florida."
I Question —"How would you go from
Philadelphia to Vienna by water?"
Answer —"Delaware river, Dela
ware bay, Atlantic ocean, Gulf of
Mexico, raoific ocean"
These ar% actual written bona fide
answers of applicants fur positions as
teachers. In all the other studies in
which the candidates were examined
there was shown that same lack of
competency, and out of the twelve
who applied only a very small propor
tion received the requisite 70 per cent,
in all the studies.
Condition of tlie (Top* in Iho
Westers State*.
Jacksonville, 111., October 10 lie
ports dated to October Ist, received at
the office of tbe National Crop lie
porter, indicate slightly increased lose
on corn in Minnie, Missouri and Ohio.
The estimated losses iu the .State men
tioned are lespectively 14.7,7.1 and
8.3 per cent, Reports from all quar
ters agree almost unanimously that
but little damage has been effected by
recent frosts, but coufirm the reports
of serious injury by frost iu the latter
qart of September, at which time most
of the corn wae yet iu milk. Tbe
result will be a great deal of softcore
much of which caunot even be led.
Stock rednrts IUHU lowa iudicate u
loss oil corn as compared wi;b last
year of only si* and one tenth per cut
which wonid make the yield for this
year oue hundred and twenty nine
bushels. As far as can de learned
tbe avreage of wheat sown this fit!l
is very considerably greater than in
1872, and thus far in most section*,
the weather haa been iavorable to
growth.
Additional reports from Minnesota,
Illinois, lowa, Wisconsin, Missouri,
Kansas and Ohio confirm the eni
mated falling off the Irish potato crop
in those States, which in 1870 pro

Take tbeui all iu all, it must he corn

There is a certaiu class of pelili-i
Icians who manage to keep in |>owei
for awhile by working up for them
selves, by dint of the management of
small matters, a reputation for being
a "clever fellow." They stand the
treats, give advice, do small tivecent
favors that cost tbeiu nothing, aud
then ask people to keep them iu office
because, as they claim, they are "clev
er fellows." This is their principal
and capital stock in politics. It is :
verv cheap ; costs them very little
more than a large amount ot breath,
and when iu office where they get a
chauce at the people's taxe*. they help
themselves very freely and make up
legally and illegally a huudred times
more than all their small favors cost
thein. This is the sort <f politician

-1 President Johnson, whoee coming here

failed to turn up. His letter stating
, thai he would be here was written be
fore the failure of the First National

to he creditor in SbU,OOO. This suui
grew out of the bonds, to the amount
named, which the Butler Smelling

1 C'ongreaaaian from Vermont. makaat a
n atatcmaul in regard to tha President*
* connect ion with the aalary grab.
'' Wben tbe propositus to increaaa the
' President# aalary waa firet broached,
* he aya it mat with atnall favor either
in Gengreas or tbe country, an I that
f the scheme of raisiug the Congreaaioo
' al salaries waa an af.crthought, a de
( vice resorted to with tbe eele object of
helping the Presidential bill through.
, Mr. Willard says disliuctly that—
„ Tha President favored the bill lie
lg fore it |iaased either House, and per
e penally expressed to members a deeire
n to have hia own aalary increased ; and
m the aelfiah iuteieeta of members in in
i. creasing their own pay waa only one
jof lbe devices by which the Resident's
•alary was raised ; in otbar words, it
(pulled that increase tbraugb, and the
whole measure bad favor at the White
Hops* on that account.
" Mr. Willard goes on to refute the
statement that the increase of the
if President's salary was ' just and necos- \
t sarv" by statements in detail regard
* ing the expeutes of the Presidential
j office, and the provision made above
n Ulie salary in the appropriation bills to
„ meet thorn. Resides the 125,000 a
, year, which was the salary previous to
, the passage of this bill, an annual ap
, propriation of Irotu twenty to sixty
, thousand dollars is made for keeping
t up the "White House" establishment.
1 The grounds are always kept at the
l public charge, and carpets, furniture,
i gas, fuel, and many of the servants are
, paid for by separate appropriations,
r The appropriations for the curreut
yenr 1^73—4, |lje Items of which are
given by Mr. Wlllaro, foot' up 177,-
000, making, as he says, tbe expense
r of the Executive establishment, with
r the increased salary, <127,000. Out
1 of the salary, Mr. Willard says "lbs
I JVWnit j!** " n '7* h * J*™"*' •
I tepees of himself g-pd ntwily, sod the
expenses of his tabls to pay for." Re
| turning after the |treeentation of these
very significant facts and figures, fo
' the discriminating resolutions of the
Massachusetts Republicans, he says :
The condemnation of members of
Congress who favored this increase
has been in the main undoubtedly de
em ved. hut wan au lota Q£
fairuess ought nut to make disliucUoni
between those voting for and tbe one
urging the passage of and approving
with his signature, ueoessary to make
the bill a law, a measure unfairly and
unreasonably increasing salaries.

I Mciiumt. Alderman Batrhrler married,
a couple in jail last Friday, the incident,
of whoa# lives— thalr courtship, reparation
and singular marling and marrUga—form
a combination of circumstances that give,
a deep tinga ef rouianra to the usually J
cold and forbidding ieiior of items o! lif j
behind tbe bare at Ca<tle Robinson. I
About three year, ago, the subjects of (hie
ceremony lived in Recheslcr. N V. where
he courted her; the loeed him ' lon wall,but
toil wiseli," and alter ha had effected hrr i
ruin, betook to the wood* of Pemisylve
nia under an aeeuuicd name and did a- ,
lumbering go She lullowed in pureuit,
dropping her proper surname and taking
up hit trua name But rhedidnut find
bar truant lover In bar wandering* the
drilled into a viciu* life, and ultimately
brought up here in a rhebaug on the
bank* ol thtHald Kagle, from which she
wm iran-fered to jail for 0 month* at the 1
last term uf the Court af Quartar tea*ion*,
on lha charge of receiving ioiue stolen
jewelry from n fellow who, at the tame
term, wn* sent to the western penitentiary
for stealing it.
At tbe same term of Court her wandering ,
lover we* arraigned tor stealing a watch,
hut owing to the non-appearance of the
accuser, the cat* was not tried,.and he we
recouii.ailled lojeil and oon after dis
charged. But while in jail, his victim
was there else, I though he bad not
mat bar, nor bad they met during
Court. Heittg well behaved, she was giv
en the liberty of tbe jail corridor, niter
she bed been there a few days, in which
to take exercise. While on her prome
nade, lo 1 an 1 behold ! who should she see
behind lb* bars hut her long lost William!
and be saw ia the preeuibuleliiig maiden
hi* ance loved and deeply injured JeruC.*
Jena! They were a surprised cou',,|e 1
Their feelings just then may he imagined,
hut not portrayed ! She could not rush to
his arms, if an impulse had urged her. nor
oeuld she have "scratched his eyes out,"
ifjhar pn sion had prouiptad, for she was
deterred from reaching him But she
did nt attempt anything rash, nor give
signs of doing so. They recogniied each
other, greeted as hast they could, and
"talkrd the matter over." They met on
e common level Their station in life
kept each frem upbraiding tbe other, and
it air disgrace was mutual.
Boon (hereafter Wii.iem was discharged
and on the day nanird he came down end
cummriK ed reparation by making her his
wife. He said he had never had ar y
"luck" since he served .her so bad, and he
felt it his dcly to marry her and try to
mas* amend*. The ceremony took place
in Deputy Sber.tr Robinson's dwelling,
end was witnessed by hie family. Tbe
bride was dressed in white, and though
not pretty, sbe ba beautiful skin, is uf the
i blonde style, and loolud, as tbe ladies say,

cause of the Jiflt rultv waa an old grudge
that existed between Ihetn. A tea• day*
prcvi.u to the fight the men had cine to
an under-landing that upon the occasion

preaeuted iuelf. and. although, the hour
wa nine o'clook p ni., the men had no
•aoner lighted each <> her than they took
position*. drew their revolver*, and com
menced firing with incredible rapidity.
People near the cene at danger fled pre
cipitately, and the combatant had the
atreet to ihetut-.-lve* White waa the flrrt
to tail. Ha dropped from tha sidewalk
intoa gutter, and was almost immediately
followed by Fuget, who lay in the aatue
guitar but a few leet Irom hitn. Between
the wounded and beiple** antagonivta waa
a bundle of gunny aacka, which hid them
from one another, hut Fuget crawled to
tha top of theac baga and front hia po*iliei>
fired twice at \* hite. At the same
moment White diacharged bia laat abot
with great effort, and Fuget, atruck by the
bullet, rolled front the bag* in agony.
Tha groaning and bleeding men were
then picked up, hut their drapetate
wounda rendered recovery impossible.
Fuget died in ten tuinutea and White ex
pired ahotrily after.
