THE Philadelphia Morning Post speaks
the sentiments of the people when it pro
tests against the delay in settling the
l pension claims of the poor crippled sol
diers. That the sum of $B.OO per month
for the private soldier is too small, is an
admitted fact. But that the applications
for pension are every day delayed, and
that,there-are now in the pension office
one huntli-ed thousand applications for
pension still unsettled is a burning shame
on the national character.
The red tape through which these ap
plications must pass is all right enongh;to
preserve the government from deception
is the object.. But does this menu pro
tection. It is not another name for indo
lence, meanness and downright fraud.
Let the admistration see to this delay at
once, and if the matter is not remedied,
let Congress take the matter in hand.
EMZI
.Editor
CoxonEss will meet on Monday next.
The important measures which will come
before it will make, a protracted session.
The action will be closely watched. The last
steps in reconstruction, the financial poli
cy and oar foreign relations will each re
ceive a due share of attention. A careful
estimate shows that if the Secretary of the
Treasury continues to buy bonds, and
reinvest principal and interest as he now
does the net income to the Treasury will
be four and a half million of dollars per
annum, and the whole debt be paid off in
fifteen years. The steady decline in
gold, the necessity for the opening of a
brisk trade in the coming spring, and all
other favorably circumstances combined
will cause a speedy return to a sound fi
nancial basis. Inflation must be prevent
e•l.
THERE is hope for Virginia yet. The
transition epoch has set in. Sambo is off
for the south, to make room for northern
capital. But the most startling phase of
the situation is that the southern planter,
the former " Lord of Creation," is now
dependent upon the poor negro. The
some-time-ago master follows while the
save leads. The poor white trash of
Virginia and the former sovcrign are now
on the same common level, dependent
upon each other for the nuears of sup
port.
The importance of this movement can
not he over estimated. Virginioa will
soon be occupied by a new race of men,
different in motives, different in energy,
and different in activity. TL:e curse of
slave labor will go with th ose upon whose
heads the blame rests. The natives of
Virginia are so wedded to slave labor that
they willfollow in the wake of their de
parting slaves, and " the ill-cultivated
plantation will soon flow with milk and
honey, like our own garden valleys of
Pennsylvnia. With reconstruction com
plete, retrenchment and economy rigidly
enforced, confidence fully established, and
the whole people united in Land and ob
ject, we may predict an unparalleled fu
ture far Virginia, and the whole south:

term of offic . be for three, instead of one
year adding other suggestions, which are
supposed to be adequate to the wants of the
case. As to making it an elective office,
we can not see how this can possibly pre
vent corruption. The same means which
are now made use of to control the prima
ry elections, and thus forestall subsequent
action, can in every ease be adopted ii the
office be elective. The only safegaurd
against corruption lies in the honesty and
determination of the people. The elec
tion now - is in the hands of the, represen
tatives; if they act falsely, the constitu—
ency can disapprove and reject - as in some
,notable instances during this year.

posits are large enough to make

on thetn.an item of economy for the State,
say $50,000 'that such interest be placed
to the credit of the Government. The
administration of public affairs should be
as economical as that of priate trusts,

the people at the same time. Economy

" The question' of Caste."
Hon. Charles Sumner, Senator of the
United States from Massachsetts, delivered
his able lecture on " the Question of Caste"
before ivory large and intelligent audience
at Fulton Bull on Friday evening. At eight
o'clock the distinguished Senator, accom
panied by his Honor,Mayor Atlee,uppeared
upon the platform and was greeted by
hearty applause. Mayor Atlee arose and
said :
" Ladies and gentlemen—The Iron. Chas.
Sumner needs no formal introduction. His
.name and his fame are household words
not only_ throughout our own land, but
- wherever in the civilized world liberty is
loved and- freedom cherished. His great
intellect, profound attainments, .and vast
experience are known and acknowledged'
by all ; and when, during the last session.
of Congress, he rose to speak as a Senator
of the United States on the question of our
treaty with Great Britain, nations sat as his
auditors, I therefore merely announce 'the
subject of his lecture—" The Question Of
Caste "—and Present him to you."
Mr. Sommer then'arose and premised by
saying that this was the first time he over
had the pleasure 1 . )1• appearing before a Lan
easter audience. He felt a throb in the con-
SciOusneis of Speaking at the bottle of
Thaddeus 'Stevens.' 'Lancaster v:onld ar-
mays be regarded as a snared place as the
earthly home of that great man.
Mr. Sumner then said t bat the question of
the prevalence of caste was' a question of
to4lay.• Slavery, to be sure, no longer
'troubled the-repose of the Republic, but Its
spiritrentainedand was. e.xhibited still in

nerallip in all the rights of mankind
The time would come when the Govern
ment would be a science, the laws of which,
if they are to he applied inteligently, must
be studied and understood, as are the laws
of ahem istry and astronomy. The first bus
iness that the student of the theOry of the
Government, or that the student 'of man
kind is to set about, is to know=ltirielf
what is his position in the universe and his
position toward his fellow-men. In the de
termination of his position in respect to his
fellows and his duty toward thein,t he great,
law of the Father of all—" To do' unto
others as you would that they should do
unto you," should be accepted as the only
rule fbr the government of conduct or the
direction of thought, and upon this safe
guard of universal divine law would he
place the rights of every race of mankind.
llu would attempt to awaken a repugnanc'e
to the spirit of caste as inconsistent with
freedom.
The speaker went back to the history of
the opening of India to commerce by the
Portngues. The system which was found
there of gradations in society the Portu
goes expressed by the word " caste," which
has since then passed into all known lan
guages to express the same condition of So
ciety. The fixed orders were found in their
greatest distinctive character in India. But
the thing itself was ancient. Evidence of
Its existence was found upon the hicoro
glyphics in ancient Assyria, Egypt. mid
Persia, and later it existed In the feudalism
of the Middle Ages.
He described minutely and learnedly the
distinction of caste in India, comparing
them with similar gradations among the
people of other nations, and frith those that
are partially superior in our own. The as
sumption of superiority opens a question of
a surpassing interest in science, in govern
ment, and in religion. In the religious
view of equality of persons, he need refer to
bnt two passages in the " word of God."
In the that it was said in toe narrative of
of the creation, "So God created man in
his own image." In the second, St. Paul
said upon Mars Hill, " God bath made of
one blood all nations of men for to dwell on
all the face of the earth."
The first passage occurred in the solemn
history of the creation. The second would
remain venerable and beautiful forever as
the declaration of the grandest character in
Christian history. The scientific aspect of
the question depends upon the difference in
complexion. A distinction in character and
capabilities, it. was claimed, grew out of the
difference in race. But science was at fitult
in the forming of races of men which scien
tific inquiry first established, then another
was added. Then it was demonstrated by
eminent travelers and naturalists that there
were clever and scientific men equally re
spectable who hold that there are sixty-five
human races upon the earth.
If philology were called to our aid bow
great an increase of races might be figured
up. Men of ono race are known to sneak in
languages widely different, and those of
different races use the same. Are these so
called differences in races aboriginal, or are
they superinduced by varieties of location,
climate, occupation or habit? In behalf of
the lirst-men honed claim it is set up that
these varieties were from the first the same
as wo see them now ; that the symbols of
the servitude of one race, with their physi
cal differences front the race of masters,
were found upon the hieroglyphics recov
ered from ancient cities. There iusupport
able difficulties presented themselves in the
way of a belief in one origin for all races,•
and that finally the idea of different origins
for men was in consonance with: the ascer
tained laws of the vegetable world.
On the other hand he would reply that , it
was more difficult to believe in many or
igins than to believe in or.e. After you
have recounted the principal varieties Mere
are yet others and many, and so differing
in many minor particulars, that it is hard
to credit the supposition that the origins
were so divergent. Whatever may be the
origin, there is an influence stamping them
all with a cosmopolitan character, giving
them thonght,itatelligence,;consclenee and
tlief,A of heafen, making s them alike in
their. general- characteristics, as they -are
dissimilar from o7erything in nature.
They were given alike the first instrument
ofclvilization. the human hand, the same.
upright form, the same general featnres,the
same method ofaction. Ho might introduce
great names in science to corroborate the
opinion that the origin of the human species
was the same.
The opinion of Alexander von Haub°lth
was that the Lumen kind was divided into
varieties, thus discarding the idea of race,
and that, while the unity of species must be
maintained, the idea of superiority must
not ho admitted. But there could be no
final humeri testimony. 'There was an
other unity to' which we could all anchor
safely. That was the unity, to which he
had bi3ibre referred—:he unit}- of intellect,
mental identity, and capacity for improve
ment. All history, anatomy, Psychology
and philology testified to the unity of man
kind. By these tokens man everywhere
was known as'unin , end by these tokens the
speaker said 'he claimed for him all the
rights of man.
God was clearly the' father of all men ;
hence all men are•equal. If they are not all
sons of one father on earth, they are the
children of one Father in heaven. Admit
ting a common humanity, it was hard to
see why 11L,C0111I1101/, civilization should not
also be talinitted as its consequence. lie
would diseitss the question front this stand=
point of history to prove that'if men are all,
Of one nature their civilization may be equal.
The European man has arisen to the high
est civilization yet known to history, not
he has emerged from a darkne'ss equal to
that of Ethiopia. Caesar, when eq landed
in Great Britain, found painted savages,
sunk lower in the scale of humanity than
the most degraded-peonle-in Africa. They
-lived without agricutture-,--the,tirst of the
arts—were,ignorent and Mdoltstit i ttnd main
tained conjugal institutions founded upon
incest. The Irish were cannih'als. In later,
times, even 'three hundred years ego, parts'
of Great-Britain had scarcelY risen out of a
state of barbarism,. while in France, that
was supposed to be the very home of mod
ern civilization, there was, not One hundred
years ago, a state or morals and manners
the Would disgrace the-inhabitants of Ethi
opia. ,
The speaker reduced the question to a
rule of three, giving the, degradation and
stibsequeut-elevatith, in the space of one
hundred years. How longwill it take others
similarly degraded to similarly rise? ,
sides the natural and historical argument
in favor of the improvement of the negro
race, the age'which ' sees their degradation
sees also institutions and 'opportunities for.
their more speedy advancement.

PAIN KILLER
MssmorrAnniansas, April 1.7, INO.
:31Essits. PAnnv DAvis .tr Sox,
o I want to say a little. more about
tbe Pain Killer. I consider its very valuable medi
cine, and always keep it on hand. 1 have traveled a
goal deal since I have been in Kansas, and never
without taking it with 'Me. In my , practice I m•ed it
freely for the Asintio-Chelera in 1849, and with better
success than eith any other medicine. I also used
it here for Cholera in 183 i, with the same good re
sults- .1. HUNTING. 31; 1);
* % " " I regret to .st‘y that the Cholera has pre
vailed here of late to great extent. For the last three
weeks, from ten to fifty or sixty fatal eases each day
have been reported. I should add that the PAin
Killer sent recently from the Mission House, has
been used with considerable success during this
epidemic. If taken In season, it is generally Mice
li/Si in checking the disease.

Seaweed Touje and Mandrake Pills, will cure Con
sumption. Liver Complaint and' Dyspepsia. if taken
according to directions. They are all three to be
taken at the same time... They cleanse' the stomach,
relax the liver, and put it to work: then the appetite
bedomes good the food digests 'and makes good
blood; the patient begins to grow In flesh; the dis
eased matter ripens la the longs, and the patient
outgrows the disease and gets well. This ti ihe
only way to cure consumption.
To those three medicines. Dr. J. IL Schenck. of
Philadelphia, owes his unrivalled success in the
treatment of pulmonary consumption. The Pul
lin:l3lM Syrupripens the morbid matter in the lanes,
nature throws it off by an easy expecteration. for
when the phlegm or matter is ripe, a slight cough
will throw it Mr, and the patient has rest mid the
lungs begin to heal. .
To do this. the Seaweed Tonle and Mandrake Pills
must be freely used to cleanse the stomach anti liver.
au that.tho Pulmonic Syrup and the food will make
good blood. •
Schenek's 3randrake Pills act upon the liver, re•
moving all obstructions- relax the ducts or the gall.
bladder. the bile starts freely, and the liver is soon
relieved ;the stools will show what the Pills can do;
nothing has over been invented except calotnel to
deadly poison which is very dangerous to use ex
cept win. great tame). that will unlock a gall-bladder
and start the secretions of the liver like Schenck's
.Mandrake Pills.
.Liver Complaint is cue.-of the most prominent
causes o[ Consumption.
Schenck's Seaweed Tonic is a gentle stimulant
and alterative, and the alkali in the Seaweed, which
this preset ption is made of.hs , siStS the stomneh to
throw• out the gastriejuiee, to dissolve the food with
the Pultronie Syrup; and it is made into good blood
without fermentation or souring in the stomach.
The great reason Why physicians do not cure eon
sumptioney.try to do too much they giNc
medicine to ship the cough, to sun , chills, to stop
night somata, hectic fever, and by so doing they de
range the ti hole digestive powers, luekmg up the se
cretions, and eventually, the patient sinks and dies.
Dr. Schenck, in his treatment, dues nut try to stop
a coughs night sweats, chills or fever. flemovc tho
cause, and they will ail stop of their own accord. No
one can be cured of Consumption, Liver Complaint,
Dyspepsia, Catarrh, Canker; Uleetated Throat, un
less the liver and stomach are made healthy,
. -
If a person lieu consumption, of course the lungs
are in some waydiseased,ci t her tubercles, ab.cesses,
bronchial irritation, pleura adhesion, or the lungs
are a mass of inflammation And fast decaying. In
such cases what must be done? •It is not only the
lungs that are wasting, but it is the whole body. The
stomach and liver hove lost their power.tormiike
blood out of food. Now the only chance is to take
Schenck's three medicines, which will bring up a
tono to the stomach, the patient will begin to wont
food.' it will digest cosily rind make good blood ; then
the patient begins to gain in flesh, and as soon as
*tlio,body begins to grow,t ho lungs commence to heal
up, and the patient gets fleshy and t. ell. This is the
only way to cure consumption.
