Reverdy Johnson writes a long letter
to the Tribune on the currency, in

First. That the only currency know n

second. That nothing but gold and
silver can be made a legal tender.
If every democrat in this county does
his duty to his party and our nominees,
the majority will be larger than it was last
fall, when we had over SOO. We can
raise it up to 1000, and thus bring old
Centre up to the figures of the good old
days when democratic rule gladdened the
hearts of the people of the state and na
tion, and when prosperity enlivened all
branches of industry and the ringing
gold and silver were our money.
The Bellefonte Republican advertised
Prof. Fare, one of the speaker* at the
meeting, as the most humorous speaker
in the state. He turned out to be as dry
as powder, and didn't raise a single
laugh ; how could he ; he lives on pnnk
and green persimmon juice, Farr does.

The old Chorpenuing swindle which
John Cessna has for years l*en trying
to put through, dies harder than a cat.
and is not dead yet, although knocked
senseless we don't know how often, by
being rejected. We now learn from
Washington that the Attorney Genera 1

points presented in the Chorpennrng

Hermann, the delivererofGerniany, be
fore the birth of Christ, had, on Tues
day, his memory signalized at Detmold,
in the forest of Thuringia, where he won
his Yictory, by a work of art which will
hereafter rank as one of the wonders of
the world. Not even the Caesars whose
legions he overthrew, jHissessed its
equal. The great statue, which was un
veiled in the presence of the Emperor
Wilhelm and a hundred thousand peo
ple, is 100 feet, in height and standing
on its lofty pedestal, erected on a high
hill, will tower far above the Colossu
of Rhodes. The latter, according to
Pliny, who lived during its existence,
was seventy cubits high, or one hundred
English feet, which is precisely the
height of the giant of the
Thuringian woods. Phidias' greatest
work, the Jupiter he framed for the
Eleans, was only sixty feet in height.
The German work of art was designed
and wrought by one man, lierr Ernest
Von Bandel, who devoted between thir
ty and forty years of labor, mental and,
manual, to it, and who has immortalized
himself as well as his hero.
A fellow from Readintr. whom they
call "Prof." Farr, addressed the Hart
ranft gathering at Bcllefonte, the other
evening. "Prof." Fair, in his dress and
manner, has copied after Theodore Til
ton, wearing his hair sort of woman
fashion, and is a believer in Woodhull
ism and Tilton's woman's rights here
sies. This Tiltonic apostle has a speech
prepared for him by the radical state
central committee, and which he re
peats at such meetings as he is express
ed to ; of himself he has no knowledge
of national or state j<olitics, and does
not know enough about currency and
financial matters to enable himtocarry on
a pea-nut stand, otherwise he could nev
er have been hired for "vittels" and
traveling expenses to rehearse such ab
surdities as he let out in the court-house.
It is singular that all the women's
right's men try to dress alike, talk alike,
have faces alike, and part their hair in
the middle. Yet it is so, and our Read
ing Prof is not an exception. It is a
pecnlier characteristic of all that class of
fools to try and make themselves appear
like delicate women, as though God had
not understood his business. When
Mr. Wilson entered with him through tluf
rear entrance to the court room, and
stood there a few moments with the
"Prof." we had to look durued sharp for
a while until we were satisfied it was
not a she, and had to wonder why he
would bring a woman through the back
entrance at that time o'night. lias
tings, getting his eye on the object at
about the same time, no doubt under
the delusion that it was a female, at once
started for the back entry, and to his
chargin and disappointment found his
mistake, for Wilson told hiin it was
"Prof." Farr.
We are certain that the Prof, will nev
er be Secretary of State, or even Presi
dent He may have been Secretary of a
woman's rights convention, and may
yet be elected chairman of such a body,
but we don't Bee how it comes he did
not figure aa an "important" witness in
the BeechersTUton case. Prof. Farr is a
young fraud and a perfect Farce, now
mind that.

RILL iiAXX A 7 REI.I.EtVXTE.
Hill Mann the radiral Philadelphia
ballot-box at idler, was at Hellefonte on
Wedneadav evening of last week, to ad
dress tho domorali ed forces of Hart ran ft
and Rawle. The meeting was tamo and
devoid of enthusiasm, ami the atfair re
minded us much of a locomotive tangled
up in a big snow-drift, unable to get
through in spite of all puffing, snorting
and pushing. The applause in every in
stance w*a failure and so weak as not
even to arouse sotuo of the faithful who
hn.t fallen into a half dote. In short the
whole thing indicated that radicalism
was engaged in some heavy up hill bus
iness with down breaks. Mann's talk
was not like he used to talk, and Hilled
to tire up his hrethern, who seemed
much down in the mouth, and who
might fittingly rejH'at the lines of Mil
ton,
Ala* I ftvm what high hope to what n
lap*e,
Unlocked for, are wo fallen.
Mann's speech w.is made up of the
•tuff that radical orator* used to peddle
in the days of war when they felt strong
and bold, with the military to back them,
and persecuted and mobbed democrats
He uned the old slang phrases of " cop
perhead," "disloyal" and "traitors." lie
then went on to glorify the radical par
party, and pronounced it clean and clear
of the charges of corruption that are
brought against it. That this man
Manu. who is notorious as the most vil
lainous of all the corrupt politicians of
should try to screen his
party from had acts, is not at all strange,
in fact it would In- surprising if he took
an opposite course. Why it is only a
-hort time ago that he charged and took
.►ut of the state treasury $30,000 for ex
iiuunng't lu accounts of the foreign in
-urancn agencies In this stale, a work
that would hatv !een well paid with
SIOOO.
He next got on the temperance ques
tion, and tried to excuse llartranfl for
playing Jauus on that subject. He
charged that two-thirds of the. whiskey
element in Philadelphia belonged to the
democratic party, and that himself was
as much in favor of temperance as any
one. He knew he was telling a bold,
bald lie iu this ; he knows better, for he
is the leader of the Philadelphia row
dies, roughs and ruuisuekers. and that
element in Philadelphia always clings to
Hill Mann, and constitutes his repeater*
at the ballot boxes. The rum holes of
Philadelphia are maintained by the sup
port they got di/pctly and indirectly
from Hill Manu and his tirow, and the
whiskey element clings to him for the
plain reason that he rules the city, and
thegruggvrie* very naturally look to him
a-> master, protector and defender. It is
because Maun has the rowdies and rum
mies of Philadelphia uuder his training
and ready to do his bidding that he is
enabled to keep Philadelphia under rad
ical control. It is his crew of drunken
rowdies that drive* honest voters from
die polls and moves around from pre
cinct to precinct as re peat or* until they
have fraudulent votes enough to n|rt
radical majorities from that city ranging
from 2d,000 to 35,000. That Hill Mann is
the leading campaign orator for llart
ranft, and that all decent republican
leader* in the state are standing aloof,
is sufficient to prove to any honest voter
that the republican |>arty has fallen in
to bad hands and into had ways, and
hence only bad and unprincipled politi
cal characters like Bill Mann can be
found willing to eutcr into the cam
paign, while the more decent part of the
republican leaders out of self-respect re
fuse to take any active part.
! .4 QUESTION AXD AX AX> IYER.
Some days ago the Pittsburg Evening
Telegraph wanted to know :
Can any practical and sensible Repub
lican friend of temperance stultify him
self by supporting a faction that does
not expect to succeed ?
Robert Andly Brown, the prohibition
candidate for governor of Pennsylvania,
I in his letter of acceptance, makes the
following reply :
We are also warned that by our sejwi
rate action we will be responsible for
the destruction of "the only party that
can save the country," as if a party could
save the qpuntry which can no longer
save itself. In contradistinction to all
this, the first need of the hour is that
citixens should teach their public ser
vants that conscience is an element of
power in American politics never to In
abandoned; that the senselessness a mi te
merity of j>arty leaders who ignore the
conscience of enlightened and virtuous
citixens and count on their votes to en
dorse unrighteous acts, must be rebuked
by those very votes, and that if parties
follow their leaders to a merited de
struction, new and healthful organisa
tions will arise and fill their place and
accomplish their destiny the better, as
they take warning by the fate of parties
before them that have once been power
ful but have perished for their sins.
Our own party represents the spirit of
reform demanded by the times.
Levi Munson will receive a heavy
vote in his neighbor hood. He is a fa
vorite among the people of all parties in
that section, and there is no glm in this
county large enongh to hide him or hold
all his majorities. He is fit for the office
of Sheriff, he is a hard working son of
toil, and has known all his lifetime what
it is to work. He lielongs to the com
mon classes of the people —the bone and
dnew of our county, and he has done
rnach to develop the coal and luml>er
section of the western portion of Centre
county, thereby assisting to build up
a profitable market for the grain, meat
and other products of our farmers, ami
- a market too that has given them larger
. cash prices for their product* than any
s other. Mr. Munson is a poor iflin, but
. honest. He is a staunch democrat, and
i will make an efficient and obliging

would seeqi that the vials of repub
lyan wratli are to be poured <out upon
tfie head of D./A. Musser, the democrat
ic nominee fof Treasurer. His nomina
tion was scarcely dry upon fbe paper
when they/commenced circulating sto
irieA to datnage his election. Some raise
thwdfcy that he is rich—well, we do not
know what sum makes a man rich. Mr.
Musser has acquired some property, it is
true, but all the more to his credit when
we say that every cent of it was gotten
through honest industry, and liecausc he
understood how to do business. If what ,
he lias had come to him in a dishonest
way, then the radicals might well cry ,
out against him, but when a man has to j
start out as did Mr. Musser, with no- ,
thing, and by his honesty, industry and ,
sobriety lays up a little of this world's (
goods, all the more credit is due him, and t
it shows that he is a man fit for other j
positions. Where is the man who does (
not strive in the same direction ? and c
when there is such a one we all point to c
him with discredit, and it proves he has p
' no qualifications and is uot trusted.

The following from the Doylcatown

Treasurer Mackey's deception :
Treasurer Mackey , in his rvjmrt to the

ed, states that $5,000 are with ti. F. Ma

very well, hut it does not tell the truth
to the tax payers of the State. Mackey
ought to tell why the money is "dejmiut

lIIE WHOLE PEOPLE HA VE RE EX
PLEXDEREP
Gen. George \V. Morgan, ol Oluo, re
cently made a tq>ceeh at Canal I\\ <r,
ami concluded with thpM- paragraph*:
Hut the Republicans have been both
plundered and then betrayed. That the
great body of tlie people, Republicans
anil IVniocrats alike, desire good g<>v
ernmcut there is no doubt, but the Re
publieau ogardration is beyond the eon
trolofthe Republican vote>. who have
no more to do with the administration
of our public atfairs than have the peo
ple of China. I.et tin test the truth of
this assertion. The men in power have
given to luilroad* and other corpora
tion* an uuiount of pubijc lands equal to
live times the area of the state of tthio.
What Republican now in sound of tuy
voice or in the good county of Tu-cur.i
was, aye, or in the State of Ohio, was in
favor of taking those lands from the
people to whom they belonged and giv
ing thy in to the railroad companies ?
Not one. And > d this high-handed act
was done while two-thirdsof each house
of('ongre-s was conqiosed of Republi
cans. What Republican within the sound
of my voice, uuless he be a 1 anker or
bondholder, was in favor of increasing
the taxes upon all the property of the
people and tk'U exempting the bond
holder's wealth from taxation No
voice answers ; but I do not believe that
such a man can be found in Ohio. Yet
it was done and much more. The bond
holder was not only exempted from tax
ation, but his projKirtion of taxes were
and are added to the taxes paid by the
pro|>erty,and this was done by a Con
gress with inorc than two-thirds of Re
publicans.
What Republican within the sound of
my voice was in favor of jiaving the
bondholder gold interest on his bonds,
while the merchant, the manufacturer,
the farmer, and laborer, are. by law, re
quired to receive their interest in paper
money, while the bondholder receives
gold? In what school district, in what
township, in what county could such a
proposition receive a Republican vote,
unless that Republican be a hanker or a
bondholder ?•—There is not one. What
Republican within the sound of my
voice was in favor of giving the I'ucilic
Steamship Company ? 1,000,000 a year
for carrying $20,000 worth of mail? Not
one ; and yet Republicans are asked to
keep these men in power.
Citixens I have done. This election
is to decide whether this country of ours
belongs to the bankers and bondhold
ers, or the people. It is to decide wheth
er prosperity is to be restored to the
land, or whether we are to continue in
the downward course to bankruptcy and
pauperism. These questions arc with
you as a people ; for only by the people
and through the uction of the |eople
can relief be obtained.
THE PENITENTIARY I Ul.l.

Gazette, accompanied by Peter \V. Gray,

oners for the ]>eiteiitiary, convicted and
sentenced last week. The sheriff reports
the penitentiary as more than full, there
being something over five hundred cells
in it,and more than five hundred pris
oners now incarcerated within its walls.
The anthorities at that institution
formed the Sheriff that no more prison
ers could be taken, and that the judges
of the different districts would be in
formed to that effect.

1 WELSH'S LAST.
AColumbiad for Columbus.
, Tlic following explicit charge* of guilty
, knowledge of the fraud* at the Indian

are contained in the last letter of Mr. Wil

such damping accusations were ever be

Mr. Welsh **>*.
On the 7th day of December, lord, about
a month after the Hon. Columbus Delano
entered upon '.he office of secretary of the
interior, I made a written report to bim of
a visit to certain Indian reservations on thu
Missouri, under the enre of a missionary
organization that I then represented. The
fraud* distinctly revealed in that report
ware invested by a committee of the house
of representative*, and vrcro fully proved,
a* can be seen in the congressional tcpurf
just referred to. They were perpetrated
by J. W. Hosier and certain colleagues,
among whom it appeared, from ovidcncir
given, that Do Witt Clinton Wheeler, of
Buckley, Welling & Co., of New York,
was the leading spirit. The estimate then

The wru ua set v. d upon me in April,
LT4, when 1 had bt v usummoned to Wash-
I' inglon for that purpose, although avowed-:
ii ly to testify before a committee of con
u gri ft. The letter is true in every particu
lar, and, of course, the suit b*- not been'
brought to trial. If Mr. Wilder had not 1
9 only pressed the suit, and he could have

* Ithink voucher*, given by venders of!

* price at his own discretion, were in Min-i
. iiesotA, until verv lately, so universal that
when ilishop Whipplw made a purchase'
for Indians he hurried back to the ftoro to!
have his vouchers filled up.
The storekeeper intimated that ho wra j
fhciltst purolia-or vyho had made thai ob-|
1 lection. The frauds above referred to are
but specimens of x number for which mi
. plo testimony can bo produced, and as U
. may have occasion in my next letter to re-'
for to frauds in sales of pine timber, etc.. I
i v. ill gir„ but one tnorg specimen, and that
of a very different character. A kill had
passed the house of representatives, after a |
long debate, authorizing the appointment'
of six Indian inspectors, lo ho under the
control of the interior ilepartmenL I was
informed that the committee to which it '
was referred in the senate lefuied to make]'
a favorabln report. The reason assigned;
was the helieflhatdnioiublc appointments I
Vmld be made.
, Having been asked by the officers of the '
interior department to use uiy influence }!
wailed on President Grant, and he was!
pleased to give tin* u distinct pledge thai
no man should he appointed an Indian ig
speclor under lliut bill, even if suggested
|by himself, unless the hoard of Indian;
commissioners certified that they deemed!
him a suitable man. The President fur-
I her authorized n*p to say that when any!
insnector lost the confidence of the bojjr j
of Indian commissioners he should be un- *
mediately removed from office. Mr. De
lano concurring with apparent cordiality
in this pledge, the -cimta committee re
moved its objections and tho bill became
a law. *
The hoard of Indian commissioners had
ii meeting and agreed with Secretary De
lano ;;;>oi the names of certain persons'
who would profcabh' ba suitable, hut as no! *
appointment could ho inadp for some! 4
months, say June 30, when the law was to
take effect, it was thought best to delay fi
nal action until near that lime. Secretary
Ihlaiui madt the nominatiann without cotu
ftreucr utilk the hoard of Indian commit ,
tionert, and in duett wiuimtuin uf th, ..ledat

Some of the appointees were those that had *
received favoruble consideration, hut oth- 0
j era were appointed who would have been "
rejected utterly by the hoard of Indian
commissioners. One of the latter were
sent to examine the reservation .it which (
Indian commissioner Smith had been f
agent.
From tbo report of that inspector, on file
the office, it will he found that he did
not tuks..../ i - - tiysfwa, gad this 1 also
knew frdm porabni living *.r. tbo reserva
tion. Mr. Smith's successor' as indian ;
agent followed in his footsteps, but, as is g
alleged by person* on that reservation, he
larked thu a Iroitoess nceessary to cover
his tracks. lii*hop Whipple was appealed j
(o by tho Indian* to eueek that agent's I
rrauv**, an .4 I 1 compelled liiin lo disgorge I
a large sum ol 'mdnej. I
One of the Chippewa chief* at u uufilh;
council iiM-d this biting sarcasm in ad
dressing that agent; "Y'OII are a minis
ter. and evidently an ardeut worshiper, but
observation ha- taught us that tno only u
god you bava i* a gtssabssk." Think of
an Indian having occasion to make such n
speech to the representative of the United II
Siaies government, yet 1 fear that i;> my
next letter I will be compelled to show
hat the fault is ru>t wholly nor even main- M
v with the agent. Yours ve-y respectful

11. 1 lie Scriptural evidence* of Chris-
Uaniiy. John u 4 i. The Divinity of
f hrit an I hit doctrine, may he proven a*
follows :
I. By heavenly witnesses. Under this
head, mention:
1 the testimony of God. the Father.
At the baptism of ("ens!, and at the Trans
figuration oti Mi. Tabor, when a voice came
from Heaven, -aying ; Tbi# is my belov
ed Son, hoar Him
J Ihe testimony of God. tho Son him
ielf. The eternal Word bore witness of
himself- by words and deeds. John K 14.
About tho midst of the feast Jesus went up
into the tecuple and taught. He was the
light and iile of the world. The Holy
Scriptures have power to witness of them
selves.
8 The testimony of the Holy Ghost.!
The Holy Ghost attested the Jivinity of
Christ and hi* doctrine at Hit baptism,:
when He descended upon Hint in the form t
•I a dove; and on tho day of t'entacosl in j
•Muven tongue# a* of flro ; and in the word'
and Sacramonu, and Is effectual in the
'■part* of believer* according lo promise,
l'he ii'dy Spirit shall testify of me Now
here we have the testimony ol three com
petent witnesses, to the divinity of Chiist
i and his doctrine—and Christ is the Author
of the christian religion, and by the utoulb
of two or three wiktiossea, shall every word
heesMhliihed; and these three are one-one
in te-timony and one in essence. Now,
of course, the evidence before us is strnug
-by evidence, 1 mean, the effect of testi
mony un ibeiuind. Here, then,is throe-fold
testimony with irrefragable proof that
Christianity comes from Heaven and not
Irom earth - from God and not from man—
here I* a Trinity of witnesses whose testi
mony must he heeded; because it cannot'
he refuted.
2 The earthly witnesses. There is also
a Trinity of these, the spirit, the water and]
the blood. These itnefso* are also means
utensils) by which Christ comes to ut with
Jiiis Ufa. lie that hath the Son, halb life,!
He must come. How ? Ana, by water 1
und blood. Now if Christ came by water
.nnti hl-sod. Water and blood must be wit-',
net*.-* of the life, we have in Christ. Hut 1 ,
u>>w f.,r the witnesses again .-
I. The Ist w lines* is the water. What
kind ol water' Ani. liaiuismal water,
water of lile. regeneration ii,e answer of'.
| a go.'U conacienco towards God.
j 2 The 2nd witness is the blood—not ofi
| bull* an.) goats, hut o( Jesus Christ As 1
y water our soul* are washed and purified
■ for heaven, so by the blood, God it glori
; tied, his law honored, and his vindictive,
excellentesillu*lraled and displayed. Hum.
i 26, 28 By the blood we are justified and i
I reconciled, ar.d nghtoou* P'|
I God. By the hlooJ, the curse of the law ;
being satisfied, tho purifying spirit it ob- j
:ained for th<- internal ablution of our na i
tores, Gal. P. J3 The water and the blood j
then comprehend all things that can here-!
-pittite to our salvation. lL>w does the)
blood hear witness that we have life in!
Chriit ' Ans As water dote in baptism,!
*o blood doe* in the Ird't supper. We!
can not sec the blood by sight as we doi
the water in baptism, Lut by (saltit ei wj
uc#i the words: Tit.* It my blood given
and shed for you for tho remission of *in. j
Drinking the blood of Christ in the wine, j
: by mean* of the wine, tears witness of the,
life we have in Christ The blood of Christ!
atoned for our sins, and through Him wr
have eternal lile
3. The 3rd witness is the spirit, the p >w
er of the word.- a* well when preached as,
when believed, or retired by faith The)
spirit aocuatpauln* tho preached word, and j
when believed by us, become* the power
of the spirit in us. There is a two-fold ;
spirit, yet one spirit The spirit boareth
witness that the spirit is true. All atvur-i
ar.ee. certainty in tha Scriptures and faith
'comes by the Holy GhosL The Holytpir-,
it heari-lh witness that we are the children:
of God. Kotn h:l6. The Holy spirit work*
in and by the word to puri'j *L t-art and
t'kK-t'.fy the soul, and thus boars testimony
thai the word of God Is true, and that
Christianity is true Here are six witnesses,
three In hmven and three on earth, the
first three agree in testimony and essence,
the second three in testimony only, but nil
altering the truth ot Christianity they at
test the divinity of Christ and hu doctrine,!
and, of rouse, the divinity of Christianity,
also. We have the. ufcte, si* proof* of!
j Christianity, arising from testimony that
'can not he overthrown, the best in heaven!
and earth. These evidence* ought to sat-j
isty any reasonable man that Je*us is lha
Christ, and that the christian religion is of'
.Jivir.s origin Six witnesses i tf were-'
oeivs the witiioss of mon, the witness of]
God is greater. If w*e believe the teslitno- ]
,ny of men, w.i mu*t believe the testimony
of God.
God hath given sufficient assurance tej
the world, that Jesu* Christ is bis Son; the;
Sou of hit love, and his Son by office. te|
1 reccncile and recover this world unto him- i
-elf: He testified, therefore, to the divini-i
y o| chrullanjty, (the christian religion))
I and that it is the sure and appointed way !
and mean* of bringing u* lo God. A few
' reflections will close thi* communication; |
1. Assurance consist* in divine testinio-:
ny. God himself testifies of hi* Son in hi
word and sacrament*, and this testimony
; we have within us, in our own heart* am!,
consciences. The Holy spirit works ef
fectually in them that leliuVo—works as-'
iurapco, the certainty that Jesu* is thi
Christ—that thejr have a personal Savior: i
iin Him, and that they arc saved, and will j
go to heaven when they die.
2. Lire to God, obedience and victory j
over the world, are indubitable evidences;
i of true and saying iwith
3. AMuranca Is possible. Job. Paul and
John, all had assurance. Job said : 1 .
know tlißt my Redeemer Tiveth. Paul 1
said I know in whom I have believed. I
John said : We know that we have passed '
from death unto lile.. If Job, Paul, and;'
John could know that they were or would '
he saved—each and all may know it and '
rejoice in a joyful scn.e j
