lly an act of a corrupt Congress our
. subscribers are all blackmailed 20 cents
a year, in the shape of postage, to swell
the purse of a Department which paid
Chorpcning $150,000 when his claim
was less than 875,000. We expect the,
next Congress to undo much of the bad
legislation of the last; and to partially
remedy the outrage or embargo placed
vpon intcllgcnce, we propose to pay the
I'ostaok on all copies of the Republican,
within the county, vpon which the sub
scriber DAS PAID I'S SIX" MONTHS OR
more in advance, and ire do not want
rost Masters to annoy our advance
paying subscribers for postage, because
we will pay the same before the quarter
fj-pires. The postage will also be paid
for all persons becoming advance-paying
subscribers on or before the first day of
Ortuber next.

f Ureal Failure.
Croat men, liko insignificant ones,
often commit blunders. Of tho form
er, Grant is establishing a nallopul
reputation for himself. llo is llio
greatest fuiluro of tlio ago. Ho is a
disgrace to llio Sin to if Dot to his par
ty. Cases in point! Hut recently
tlio General Assembly of tho Presby
terian Church was in session at liolti
inoro. As usual, with all lurgo bod
ies, the Assembly contained a number
of men who wors more concerned
about going to Washington to sec
Grant than to labor in a direct lino of
their calling and duty. After a three
days' effort the domagoguo provailcd
over the Christian, and nrrangomonts
vrcro entered into beforo adjourning
to proceed to Washington to see "tho
best Government tho world ever saw."
The body repaired thither, but did
notsoo tho 8100,000 President. He
was loo drunk for exhibition. Cut
Secretary of Stato Fish received tho
body. Tho reception w-as thus very
fishy.
' Shortly after retiring to Long
Branch ho was telegraphed from Cov
ington, Ky., to tho. effect that his
father was at tho point of death.
But a number ono horso raco was on
hand at Long Branch, and four days
elapsed beforo "tho Govornraont" was

Next ho was to bo In Philadelphia
on tbo Fourth of July to hand the
Fawmount Tark ovor to tho Ccr.ton
nial Commissioners. That loyal city
was literally "on end" to witness the
Uoyal delivery. But, after a long
wait, Secretary of War, Belknap, ap
peared on tho stago as a substitute
and announced tbo dolivory. The
dodo 'was "loo thin." Loyalty ro
ceivod o chill, hot as tho day was.
The nowspnpers announced thai tho
President was at Long Branch mourn

hand wo bavo it from tho Branch
that "tho Government" won on tho

A Fatal Hurt.
New Om.tANS, July 1. A privato
dispatch from Buy St. Louis rttties thul
a duel was fought near Montgomery
station this morning between ex
Judgo Wm. ll.Cooley and U.B. Rhott,
Jr., of tho Picayune, in which Cooley
was killed at tho second shot. The
difficuly grew out of an articlo pub-
iihiicu in mo t icayune ucnuod "Haw
kins t'J Picauune." anil thn rnnltr fi Am
Juclgo Cooley published in tho Times
of tho 27th. Col. Kliett was not touch
ed. It is understood Kbolt was the
challenging party. Thoy fought with
doublo-baiTelcd obot guns loaded with
ball; distanco forty paces.
A Times spocial says : In Iho Rhott
and Cooley duel Judgo GVolcy was
killed at tbo second Cro. The parlies
arrived at tho place on thosnmo train,
at 10 o'clock Ihioauortiing. Mr. Rhott
was accompanied 4y Uossrs. (,'lias.

Cooley was atlendud iy Col. G. W.

weapons were doiioic-Oarrcled shot

all, distance forty yards. The Ground
was promptly selected, Iho dislnncc
measured, and tbe parties placed in
position. At the first fire UlioU't shot
ranged high and Cooley's to tho right.
Cooloy delivered his fire first. At the
econd flra both firod simultaneously,
and Cooley full, mortally wounded by
a shot otiloring his left sido and pass-
tog apparently mrougli his heart.
Uo expired tn six minutes, without
apparent su(Torint, only spnuking the
words to Dr. Ilolliduy, "I am sUot

' ningham's Intemperance.
Tho painful nows reaches us from
Washington that lho most serious re
monstrances havo been niado airainsl
tho appointment of John A Bingham,
of Ohio, as Minister to Japan, not on
account of his connection with tho
Credit Mobilor scandal, but because
of his intompcralo habits. Ever sinco
tho hanging ot Mrs. Surratt,' this vice
ms boen irrowinit npon Inm, nnttl it
has now bocoino opon and notorious.
ttoiuscd a rcnominallon lust summer
by tho nooplo of his Congressional dis
trict, Mr. Bingham has been promoted
to tho higher dignity of representing
this nation at the capital of Japan's
thirty millions of population. In view
of lho fact that Mr. (o Long owed his
removal to charges similar to thoso
now mado against bis succcussor, it is
mpossililo to account for the appoint
ment. It would scorn as if wo woro
anxious to reveal our worst vices to a
pconlo unxiotis to study American
civilization. It is singularly improp
er tli a', a man who is constantly under
tho influence ol liquor should bo com
missioned to disgust, by his habits,
tho kocnost ftnd most progressive pco

usult, lho blame must rest upon tho
power that commHsionod lho now

Knglund, and settled first at Dorches

from to Windsor, Conn. His grand
father, Capt. Noah Grant, was a sol
dier in tho "Old French War." and
was killed in the battlo September
20th, 1750. Ilis father, also named
rioah Grant, served through the Rev

ceiving only a fow months education.
On arriving at the aire of eleven,
ho was, by tho death of bis father,
thrown upon his own resources, ana

On June 24th, 1821, Jesso R.Grant

not vain. Sho had previously joined
tho Methodist Church, and I can
truthfully say thnt it has never had a

Her steadiness, firmness and Btrenirth
of character has been tlio stay of the
