WHY DEMOCRATIC ELECTION FRAUDS WEBB IMPOKUULB IN THAT STATE, This nogro-rioMotr and carpot-brtg plundorod CemmonweaUh, next to LouisiADa, haasufiurod more under tbo Radical roconitraotion policy than any otbor Stato. For twelvo yoara provlous to the 1st of January, 18117, tbii Stato bos boon wholly under thothumb-scrow ofRadicaliBm, and yot, black and white wore more impoverished and unhappy on tho opening ol the now year than ovor before Why oitbor raoo should have boon rendered unhappy, while all their Iriondu buld tho oflleoa, we cannot defluo. In Novomber list, very unox poctedly to all parties, a large majority of tho people volod for tho Democratic nominees for State and county offices. The former wont ull olocted, and tho county ofllcos In throo-fourths of the counties woro also of tbo same party. This unexpected ovor-throw of the Radical party in that Stuto niado Rad icals howl fraud I fraud 1 1 until all woro rendered hoarse. Then they elevated the "bloody ibirt" in tho Unitod States Scnato, sent a committoe of fuur Radi cals and one Dcmoorat (Mr. liuyard) into tho Stuto to hunt up tbo lrauds. To show how successful tho Com mittoo was, we need lay before our readers but a few questions asked tbo witnesses by Mr. liuyard. Mora: The reconstruction policy of Con grexs bad fully and porleetly forced the institutions of tho blato of Mississippi into the most entire subjection and con formity with its provisions. What Mississippi was at the time of the last election of Gov. Ames in 1873, she was "the work of reconstruction by Con gress." The will of her people, their t&HtGR. their rtretndieca. their virtnea and their faults had been molted and rnn into s mould fashioned by tbo will of Congress alone. If her institutions were defective, if they wore not con ducive to tho ends of good government, if they woro arranged with an unwise disregard of the condition and wants of tier noon o. that nconlo nro no more re sponsible thaii the population of France, tor luuy nuu uu vuicu. oueu na sue was in 1H71 the Congress of the United Suites had mado her. Tho Stato con stitution was moulded in accordance with tho will of Congress. Tho legis lation under it had lieen enacted by men placed in oower bv the Federal government. The ruli ng principlo of tnat legislation seems to have been to lead as much power as possible diroctly into the hands of the executive, in which tho reins were placed. The in stitution of sutfrago was of course the proposed basis, and to control this the machinery ot elections was placed ab solutely iu the hands of tho Governor, who had the solo power to appoint thoso ollieors who, in their turn, bad the power of appointment of the regis trars of ovory county, who in their turn appointed tho election otHcers throughout tho Stato in thoir respect ive counties, and supervised the elec tions and returns, thus gathering tho whole control of elections in a single execuuvo nana, i ins was the Blato ol things when Governor Amos took bis scat on tbo first day of January. 1874, elected in the month of Novombor pre vious. There was not an official of tho Stato who was not a member of tho Republican party. There was not a county official to bo appointed by tho Governor who was not in closo affinity with bim. In all the Republican coun ties, and all woro Republican in which negroes were in tho majority, every official was a rhembor of the same party. Thus we sco that tho ontiro control of tho State wits in the bands of Governor Ames and bis party associates. At pago 30 of bis deposition tho livct is stated by bun as lollows: : O. You have stated the violence and intimidation to have existed in tho Republican counties of tbo State? A. Yea, sir. Q. You hsvo not roicrrcd to violence in any but Republican counties? A. No, sir. Q. Such is tho tact, is it not ? A. Yos, sir. Q. Were not, then, all ot these Jus tices ol the Peace. Chancellors, the judiciary, and the machinery for choos ing juries, In the bands of the domi nant party in thoso counties? A. Yes, sir. y. 1 need not ask you if all the United States officers in that State were not mcmbors ot the Republican party ; mat was so, was it notr A. Yes, sir. U. Then tho irrand itirios and the petit juries, andtho Judges and tho nhonlls,and tho Supervisors, by whom the jurios woro selected, were all con trolled by tho dominant party in thoso counties ? A. Thoy wore all bclonimur to tho dominant party. Ol course ovory official oi the Fed eral government, District Judges, Dis trict Attorneys, Marshals, Supervisors, 1'ost Masters, revenue officers, wore all of tho samo party, and necossarily act ive adherents. It may be truly said that there was no traco whatever of official power in the Stato of Mississip pi in the bands of the Democratic party until tho 6rst day of January, 10fO.

Mr. Spoakor, during the year 1808 tbo number of failures in the Unitod States was 2,608 ; In the year 1869, 2,790; 1870, 3,551 ; 1871, 2,915: 1872,4,060: 1873,5,183: 1874, 6,830; 1875, 7,740; and during the llrst three months oi ibvo It was li.Mou, or at the rate of 11,224 per annum. And to-duy we find tho following I the Doston fua : Tbo IM el mllla alopped la New Englaad la reported In too Jioetoa jtucerticer at over one mil lion cplndlea, aad the additlona la Now Joraey and Poanevlraala, with more to be beard from la Rhode Ioland and Connecticut, at Ion, 000, or I S, per oonL or tbo uaual produouon.

Spragua A Co., (now In the banda of Zicbarlah Cncffce, trnalee,) on account of defeult of intercit on eitenaioB aotoe for duly. So that in the short spaco of niuo years, it the failures contlnuo for tbo balance ot this year at tho rate ot tho first throe months, we will have 45,871 which is unprocedentod in tho history ol our country. Jjuring sli this time, under tho policy of the Republican party, the volumo of currency has boon stcauuy oiminisniiig. .Notwithstanding this alarming stato of all'aira, penury and starvation at tho doors oi our constituents, urged on by the money powor, this same party in lsia passed what is Known as the re sumption act, which has increased tho contraction, forcing National Ranks to surrondor thoir charters, to go out of oxislenue, and these banks thereby forced to draw in their loans from tho people. This most oppressive law, the resumption act, was ibrcod through tho House oi Representatives under tho suspension ol the rules, thereby depnv ing the Democratic members irom all right of amendment or the. right of speech, tho riL'ht to expose iv unormi ties and prosttnting and direful effects upon the people. A few days since, altar a great struffirlo in tavor ot an oppressed people, a Democratic House passed bill repealing it, but it sleeps in a Republican Senate ; and thoro it win continue to sloop until an outran ed people riso in the might and majes ty ot their power and compel that body to liston to the demands of tho people for relief. This resumption aot lorces or attempts to lores resumption oi specie payments id ISV. Where is the coin to como from? Business men of every kind, farmers, laborers, debtors, whoro.will you get the iroldr 1 say gold lor tho reason tbat this same party in February, 1873, demon etised silver. Ily the terms ol tbe Constitution and from the foundation of ourpresont form of Government gold and silver both have been a legal tendor in pay ment oi ail (louts. At the time ol the creation ol our present national debt, a ercut part oi which Is held in Ku rope, it could be paid either in gold, silver, or greenbacks ; that is, tho prin cipal. On the back of every green back was and is still printed these worus: Thla Bote ic legal tender at its face ralnc for all debto, public or private, except duliec oa Im port, and laterect oa tbo pablic oebL But at a subsequent period this same party passed a law ny which tho prin cipal must bo paid in coin. The labor er, tho clerk in tbe Departments, tbo soldier who risks bis life for bis coun try, and tbo pensionor must take greenbacks, but the bondholder must bavo bis coin. When they had gone thus far in tho intorost of the bondholder you would think they bad gono far enough ; but tho half has not been told. A more disgraceful chapter in tho history of our country is yet to bo read. In rob runry, 1873, this samo Republican Con gross, still in tho power of the foreign bondholder and legislating for his in terest and against that ot their own country, thoir own confiding constitu ency, passod an act demonetizing sil ver, dopriving it ot its legal-tender quality, so that to-dny tho rapacious bondholders mud and can bo paid in gold and gold alone. And tho darkest, most diseracolul page in that chaptor is the manner of tho passago ot the law, the means re sorted to; tbe fraudulent and high handed moans was only uqualod by the object accomplished; tlio bill de priving silver of iu legal-tender quali ty was passed without even boing read ; its reading was domanded by snob sterling Democrats as our present Spcakor, ilr. Korr, and Mr. Uolman, but it was refusod. I do not use too strong language when I say it was passed by fraud, tyrannical power, and deceit One of the authors of tbia deed is dead and the other sick ; there fore I say no more, but embody in my remarks the proceedings of Congress on May 27, 1872, and can be found of tbat dale in the Uongmtumal Globe, and on page 3883, and is as lollows: "Mr. Dolman. I inppose it is in tended to have the bill read before it is put upon its passago. The Spcakor. The substitute will be read. Mr. Hooper, of Massachusetts. Ihope not. It ia a long bill, and those who are interested in it arc perfectly familiar wiin us provisions. Mr. Kerr. Tbe rules csnnot be sua. ponded so as to dispense with t ho road ing of the bill. Tbe Speaker. Tbey can be. Mr. Kerr. I want the House to un derstand that it is attempted to put through this bill without being read! The Speaker. Dons the gentleman from MassachusettsMr.IIoopermove that the reading of the bill be dispens ed with ? Mr. Hooper, of Massachusetts. I will frame my motion to suspend the rales tbat it will dispense witb the reading- ol the bill. Tbe Sneaker. The ccnlleman from Massachusetts moves that the rules bo suspended snd thst the bill pass, tbe reading thereof being dispensed with. Mr. Randall. Cannot wo have a di vision of that motion ? Tbe Hpoaker. A motion to suspend the rules cannot be divided. Mr. Rar.dall. I should lika to have the bill read, although I am willing that the rales shall be suspended as to the passage of thi bill. - The question was put on suspending tho rules and passing the bill without reading; and (two-thirds not voting thorolbr) the rules wore not suspended. Mr. Hoopor, of Massachusetts. I now movo that tbo rules bo suspended and the substltuto for tho bill in relation to mints and coinage passod; and I ask that tho substitute do read. Tbo Clork began to read tho substitute. Mr. Brooks. Is that tho original bill? Tho Speaker. The motion of tho gentleman from Massachusetts CMr. Hooporl applies to tho substitute, and that on which tho House is oallod to act is being road. Mr. Brooks. As thoro Is to bo no dubalo, tho only ohiiivo ws have to know what wo aro doing is to have both tho bill and the substitute read Tho Speaker. The motion ot tbo gentleman from Mruwaehusetts being to suspend tho rules and pass the sub stitute, it givos no choice betwoen tho two bills. Tbo House must either pass the substitute or none. Mr. Brooks. How can wo choose betwoen the original bill and tho sub stituto unless wo hear them both read ? Tbo Spcakor. The gentleman can vote "aye" or "no" ou the question whether this substitute shall bo passed Mr. Brooks. 1 am very much in the habit of voting "no" when I do not know what is going oi. Mr. Uolman. Beforo the question is taken upon suspending tho rules and passing the bill, I hope tho gen tlcman from Massachusetts will ex plain tbo leading changes mado by this bill in the existing law, especially in reference to tho coinage It would seem tbat all tho small coinago of tbo country is intended to be rocoinod. Mr. Hooper, ol .Massachusetts. This bill makes no changes in tho existing law in that regard. It does not re quire the rocoinuge of the small coins. i no question being taken on the mo tion of Mr. Hoopor, of Massachusetts, to suspend tho rules and paxs tbe bill, it was agreed to; thcro being ayes no, noos id. From which it will be seen that Mr. Uolman nsed tho following languago : Mr. Uolman, I auppoM it la ialeaded te have the mil road octoro It la put CD pacaago. air itoopor. a aopo not. Whereupon Mr. Kerr said : The rulec cannot be curncBded ao aa to dlcponie wllb tbo leading of tho bill. Whcroupon tho Speakor (than Mr. lilaino) said:- - They mo be. And the bill passed without oven bo ing read. Mr. Spcakor, 1 appeal to all liberty- loving, lair-dealing men on this floor and through thom to every American F .... . . . . ciltr.cn it tbey will tolerate such a high handed ouira;ro. .Silver nt that time constituted about one-hall of tho coin ot this country and of tho world, and ncarlv one-half ol all tho ailver nro- duced In the world is the product of tho United states. Yet wo see by tho assistance of a Republican Speaker a Kopublican House passod an aot driv ing it out of uirculatiou by one fell swonpa, and would not ovon allow tbe bill to be read. Why aro wo sent hero? bv do we occunv those scats? Is it to Ire compelled to enact laws with out their ever being read ? is this tho kind of deliberative body we bavo? Will tho American people tolerate such nign-nanued measures r Is it then any wonder that there is such a cry ot hard times all ovor tho land? Return to specie payments with one-half ot yonr specio surrr-ptitiously legislated out ol existence I mowhoio people feci and feel grievously this monetary prosuro ; tbey loel tho scar city of money, and all wonder wby it is bo, but lew know tho real cause. rnees or all articles aro regulated by scarcity or ubundanco of coin. Aal suid heretofore, it is ostimatcd tbat tho gold and silvor coin ot the world are about equal in value Is thoro any plainer proposition than that if you dostroy one-halt of it you thorcby re duce by one-half the valuo or prico ot every article; the merchant's goods, tbo real estate, the turmor s wheat ana corn, tho giar.ior's cuttle, tho laborer's wages ? It has been charged upon tho floor of this House, and not deniod, that this bill dcmonctlr.ing silvor was drawn np by an Englishman. We know ono thing, that very soon alter silver was demonetized in this country the samo policy was adopted in Ger many and f.ugland. In liiid, silvor was demonetized, one half of our coin practically destroyed. In 1873 tho financial panic camo upon us like a firo bcll in the night Comment is unnec essary. In 1876 tho resumption act was passed, the panic had spread, and dismay and distress nro Been and lelt all ovor our fair laud. On Kobrunry 11, 187G, on the floor of this House, Mr. Blaino, when speaking lor nnothor purpose, unwittingly told tho truth of tho great cause of all our troubles. Ho used tho following lan guago: . Ia otbor words, what wo moct need as tba out growth of leci.lation la ooondanoe, publio nod private, general and indlvldoat In other words, the causo of all our Iroublo is want of confidence, publio anu private, gencrui aim inuiviiiuai : want of oonlldeneo in the National legislature, want of condones in the Executive, beadi of Departments, and their subordinates. Tbe same gentleman said : Why. Mr. Chairman, It ic hardly an aiafgera- tioa that aver ainoe tbe Government waa compell ed to recort to Irredeemable eurrenoy daring tho war tho aeoembllng cl Oongresa and ita continu ance la eeccloB bare beea the meet dictarbing olomeate ia tbo buemoea of the oouotry. It la lltlerally tree, ae maa oae tell what a day ma y briag forth, Mark tho words: "Tho assembling of Congress and its continttanco in ses sion have boon tho most disturbing el ements in the business ol the country." But during all this time tho Republi can party had absolute control of both Houses, and a great portion ot tbe timo a two-thirds voto. Tbe Demo cratic party declared tbe issuance of legal-tenders unconstitutional and un necessary. . For saying so wo wore de nounced as "disloyal," "copperheads," rebels." Now these same authors of that set themselves denounce it as "irredeema ble trash." You forced it uKn the peoplo at its gold valuo and now whon the people bavo it and it is all they have you seek by every means to de procialo it and make it valueless, la there not cause for want of confidence? But a short time ago when the Su premo Court bad decided the legal tondors unconstitutional, your party and yonr President were so much en smorod of what you now call "Irre deemable trasb," that you packed tbe Supreme Court so as to change that decision. Again the same gentleman says : When we bad eec hundred aad Ifly million. ef legal -tender ba elrealaliea, II rtoed for a leaf while. aoarly at par wiin geie. Aa the lacoe la ereaeed la aaaouat the dcan-eeiettoa one vary rapid, aad at tbo lime we lied tb.foor-heedred-mllllnu.lla.lt. that whole Tact earn hod loco nm- oheetag power oa eMbaage par leada, er heuec, or eMrehaadtae thaa the baadred and My aaU lloat had twe yean before.

But what party was in powor? Who mado tho change ? What party is re sponsible tor issuing 1400,000,000 legal tondors whon that 1400,000,000 would not purchase as much as the 1150,000, 000 already out ? Who Is responsible lor this squandering ol BL'UU.umuou, which together witb its interest would to-dny amount to 1436,000.000, or one- mlh ol the whole national debt 7 tbore any wondor thoro is a want of confidence 7 Further on he says : When the Drat three hundred million, of legal tendcra were iuncd, they could be funded at Uli ontlon of the holder la 1.10 bonds la auma e 161 and any multiple thereof, Tbia provieton gave a Sled, determinate character to tne legal tender, connected It with otbor Uoveromeat la- cacc by aa equated value, mado It aa latagral pert of our whole evatom of Dublle credit, and ea- tabllohcd it, in abort, aa a eort of balance-wheel to ear aomcwbateomplieetod snaaolalaaaehiaary. So long aa that nrovialoa waa laforeo tbe moaev of tho people waa preolaely aa good and Jolt tbe came aa tne money ol tne oonanoiuer. uy a mio takra policy, aa I vesture to affirm, tbii aertioa of tbo lew, on the requect of Secretary Cbaae, waa repealed after doe ootiee given, and the moment that waa done the legal-tender bereueo a eort of onanolal orphan amoag ua ; It had tbanoeforward no eonaectloB or rciatioa.bip with any other la- cue by tbo tlorcrnmentt It meaaured Bothina nacit and waa meuured by nothing, and evar inoe that day it hoc had to Igbt Iu own battle, not merely unaided by otber forma of pobllo credit, but In a aenee eoBitaBUy hindered by mem. Ho says so long as tbat provision (tho convertibility clause) was in force tne money ot the people waa precisely as good and lust the sameas tho money of tho bondholders; but who, what party mado tho change, made the money ot the bondholder better than that ol tne peoplo r Then 1 ask again Is there any wonder tbat there is a want of confidence in your party by thoso pconif whoso Keprcsentatives you are, whose monoy yon have by your legislation made worth less than me monoy ot tbe Gorman and hnglisb bondholders r And so wo might continue from Con gress to Congress and we would soo that nearly all the legislation has been in tbo interest of the bondholders and against the people. Thoro have boon constant changos and fluctuations of policy, so that no one knows what a day may bring tortb. nut l must pass on, Another one of tho great causes of tho present depressed condition ol the country is tho unparalleled extravs ganceol tho Administration.

What has become of tho other $3,900,032,827.86? By those figures, taken from the report ot tbe .secretary ot tho Treasury, we find that during these twelvo years there has been received into the Treasury $1,696,482,492.55 more than the whole debt was in 1865, and yot we are in debt ovor fire thousand million! of dol lars Is thcro any wonder there is a want of confidence? Is there any wondor that there is a cry all ovor tbo land for retrenchment and reform ? But somo may say that a part of the yenr 1865 was during tbo war, and that the debt bad not reached its max imum until 1866. So bo it Let us boo, tbon, how tho matter stands since the war. Tho same report shows that, leaving out the year 1865, wo have re ceived sinco that period, in a time of prolound peace, H,uao,U99,zu4.iu, and tbe dobt was only reduced $569,686, 878.38, leaving a balance ot receipts over expenditures sinco the war of $3,485,413,375.72 niter subtracting tbo reduction of tho public debt, and yet we aro in debt ovor tiro thousand mil lions of dollars. By tbe sumo report, on nago 14, wo find our expenditures for the Army in 1860 woreonly $10,472,202.72; in 1875, tor tho samo purpose, $41,120,645.98. In 1860, for the Navy, $11,614,649.83 ; in 1874, for the same purpose, $30,932, 587.42. The grosd expenditures for all purposes in I860 wore only $77, 055,125.64. Yot furthor, as shown by the same report, tbo not ordinary ex penditures of tba Government from 1791 to 1860 inclusive, in a period of seventy years, the net ordinary ex penditures of tba Government wore $1,524,848,412.43, and Irom 1867 to 1875, a period of only nine years, the not ordinary expenses were $1,664, 703,838.02. In neither case are in cluded in these expenditures either in terest on publio debt, pensions, premi ums, or expenditures lor Indians, the War, or Navy Department The fig ures are stsrtling. But I must hurry on to a closo. During the short space 1 have had a seat on this floor 1 have seen five United States Judges driven from their offices by fear ot impeachment ; our country disgraced! through our repre sentative at the last Vienna exposition ; our minister to on. of the proudest courts in tbe world forced to resign and now censured by the House of Representatives ; tho President's Pri vate Secretary now answerable to our civil courts lor misdeeds oi a high diameter, and last, a Cabinet minister impeached for high crimes and misde meanors, and only escaping conviction and punishment by alleged want of jurisdiction. Ara not thoso things sufficient to bring the blush to th. chock of every American proud of bis oonntry ? Are thoy not enough to cause "th ears of those who bear it tingle, and th. eyes of those who bav. seen It weep drops ot blood T" Is H not high time tbat every honest man, .very patriot, regardless of party, sliosld givs himself np for tbo spproaching political battle for economy, parity and good government? For "whatsoever things are truo,wbat loovor things ara honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are of good report," are Involvod in tho is sue. If the spirits of the departed tako notice of what is transpiring upon this earth, I boliovo Washington and bis compatriots in arms ara looking down upon nsin this struggle and will bid ns Godspeed. A HUNDRED MIILI0X8. THAT'S WHAT TnB SHOW IS WOBTH PEBHAPS A LITTLE MOBB AND MAIBE A LITTLE LESS WUEBB TUB DEAVT FIQCBES COMB IN, AND EVEBYTUINQ j ABOUT IT. From tba Philadelphia Tlmea, Augaat 12th. Frouuent amonir tho exclamations evoked by tho bewilderment of tho Centennial is "1 wondor how much monoy all this is worth I" Its intrinsic value is certainly greater than most . . . " v . . peoplo imagine, and cannot be accu rately known until a thorough census is made by special orncors appointed by the Centonnial authorities, a thing uot likely to bo done, owing to tbo immense cost ot such an undertaking. Tho chiefs ot the various departments of tbe Exhibition contemplate giving each exhibitor a blank report, which is to be filled np to show the value of his exhibit and tbe number of articles which he displays. These blanks aro to be returned to the chiefs, who will compile tho statistics. It is very doubt ful, however, whether tho report mado irom these figures will bo wholly true, because many exbihitorSBhowinggoods worth $10,000 have an ambition to mako poople bcliove that tbey are worth $50,000. There is littlo difficulty in learning the value of every structure on the grounds, from the Main Build ing down to the smallest pop-corn stand ; nor in ascertaining that of the contents ot allot them except tbo i! am Building, Machinery xiaii, Memorial nan, the Art Annex, Horticultural uaii, the Government Building, Agricultural Hall, tho Women s 1'avillion, and possi bly two or throe others. But estimates of those may be mado with sufficient approximation vo give a tuir lues oi the total commcrcialvalue of tho great est international exhibition tbo world has yet soon. For instance, in tbe caso of Machinery Hall, when it is con sidered that rough calculations of the valuo of miscellaneous machinery are made by fixing its average price, by the pound, at twenty-five cents, it is necessary only to know tbat there is upward oi 40,uuo,uuu pounds oi macbin ery in that building to estimate its worth at $10,000,1)00, which might bo taken as including exhibits there that ara not machinery. In regard to the Main Building, it is said that there is $50,000,000 worth of insurance on its contents. As those are not insured for their full value, there being a great proportion of articles in the building tbat aro Imperishable and need no in surance, the estimate of the total valuo of tbe contents of the Main Building is $65,000,000. The following table Bhows the oost of all the buildings, improve ments and docorations on the grounds, together with tho value of the contents of the buildings, excepting those men tioned as estimates. The labio is tno first of the kind o-ivon to the public. and it will in a few weeks be followed by one prepared by tho authorities ot . 1 T 1 . ! -1,1 , I.

A later dispatch, dated August 22d. neur tho mouth of Powder river, savs tbat tho practical fuiluro of tho cam paign thus fur mado bus caused a cbango in tlio plan of oporations, and the Gov ernment willnow continue the waruntil tho Indiuns are subdued and return to their reservations. It is almost assured that tho scout now making by tho com bined forces of Gon.'i Crook and Torry will bo unsuccessful, and tbo troops will probably return to tho mouth of Tonguo river by tbe 25th inst. Tbe oommand will then refit for anothor dash, which, it is hoped, will be more successful. Genoral Miles' Wiutor- luartors will accommodate 1,500 mon, and if tlio troops do not bavo a success ful engagement with tbo Indians beforo tho 15th of September, that number will probably bo left on the Yellow, stone for tho Winter. Fifty Infantry nndcr Genoral Miles, and filly cavalry under Gonoral Morritt tlio two fineet rogiments in tbo service will remain in Winter-quarters, and, if nocossary, additional numbers will bo kopt in quarters. Thus tho campaign will be extended luto in tbe season, and, if nec essary, rosumod early in the Spring. It is thought that sufllccnt supplies can bo forwarded to tho troops before Win tor sets in. Tho Fall campaign will bo full of hardships, but not so dangerous as anothor season's murderous work. There are evidences of Indians along tho Ycllowstono, and every precaution is being tukon to koep advised of their movemonts, and a fight is not improba ble. The troops will occupy tho quar ters on Tonguo rivor by Sept 20th. Still another dispatch has been ro- coivedjdatcd August 23d, via Bismarck, which says that Gen. s Crook and lor ry, after following tho trail discovorod on tho I2th, moved 36 miles down tho Kosebud. I ho northern trail was abandoned on the 14th, and the command pursued tho southern trail, crossed tho Tonguo rivor to Goose creek, thenco returned to Powder river, and followed it to its moutb, whoro tbey wont into camp on the 24th. Tho wagon train and all tbo supplies nt tho mouth of Tonguo rivor are being shipped to tho month ofPow- dor rivor, and it is expected tho wagon train will reach thoro to-morrow morn ing. Tho Indian trail diverged from the cast bank of Powder river, about 20 miles from its mouth, south again toward tho Littlo Missouri, wbonco tho command will follow speedily. Tho ontiro command is short of supplies, and, unless othorwiso ordered, General Terry will march such troops ss are not needed ovor to Fort Abraham Lin coln. Genoral Crook's oommand will scout toward the Black Hills, and, via cttorman, home. Gon.'s Crook and Terry both think it too late for an ex tended field of operations. The Indi ans on tho southern trail are believed to bo moving toward tho agencies, and General Terry will, if possible, inter cept them. .141,000 700 12,000 3.

THE In tho year 1860 tho Southern States exported four-fifth of tho entire agri cultural products of tbo United States. Tbia vast bulk of agricultural products was transported, to Kuropo and else where, by tho shinning of the North. that increased and prospered nnder the stimulus of regular and woll paid freights. Northern bankers and brok ers made liberal profits on tho exchanges resulting from this immense truffio, tho net pronts oi which woro invested by the Southern people in tho multitudin ous manufactured articles which tbey obtained from tho Northern Statos, and the cured moats, flour and cattle which the Wost supplied them. Thus the prosperity of the South contributed in an eminent degree to tho prosperity of the shipping and manufactories of tho North, while it gave an ovor growing inpulso to tho energios of the Western farmer. Indeed, in thoso days, undis turbed by civil broils, tho South might have boon compared to tho goose that laid the golden egg for tho benefit of tho North I But tho civil war suddenly changed this state of things. The South was devastated during tho continuance of tbo war, and upon tbo final surrender of the Confederate armies the South ern States were prostrate, helpless and impoverished, whilo their conquerors of the North, exhausted themselves by so fierce a conflict, saw in prospect tho payment of nearly thrco thousand mil lions of dollars of debt contracted by the United Mates uovernmont during tho war I One would have imagined that a Christian people and Christian statesmen would, after tho full sub mission of their rebellious countrymen, havo applied themselves to tbo adop tion of tbo host means to boal tho still bleeding wounds of their country, and by a magnanimous, firm and cquitablo policy to rounito tbe conquerors and tbo vanquished in tbo bonds of forgive ness and of renewed mutual social in terests. Such unquestionably would bavo boon tbo policy of President Lin coln ; sucb was the desire of his imme diate successor ; such was the ardent wish of the great mass of tho poople, to which General Grant responded whon, tour years after the war, he ex claimed: "Let tu have peace I" But did wo have peace? Was tho South givon rest? Was it allowed to roenperato its lost energies and to take its share of tho national burdens as well as of tbe national prosperity? Not in the least. On th. contrary it becamo, nnder tbe reconstruction laws, the victim of the worst oppression which ever disgraced the annals of civ iliialion ; under the iron rulo of thior ingcarpctbaggcrsand military satraps, it was reduced to utter ponury by debt and taxation. Witness the states of South Carolina, Louisina and Missis sippi! While tho North prospered, her people did not take the time to in quire into tho condition of the South, lint now that, we are not much bettor off than the South itself, it is timo for our people to inquire after "the goose that uid the golden egg." Shall carpot baggers continue to rob tbo south r Shall the troops of the United Statos cantinue to carry tho elections in the South st the point of tbe bnyonot? Shall political demagogues continue to successfully incito the black laborer of the South against bis white omployor? If this richest portion ot the earth un der God's beavon is to be forever ten signed to anarchy, rapino and idloness, then indeed the goose that laid tho goldon egg for tho benefit of the North- orn workman IS DKAD, and the work man himself on tho high road to ioin the tramps.
