IT is definitely ascertained that the

TTits position that the Democratic

confidence in it, though there were
no other reasons for distrusting it.
'When these notes were first issued a
loud and long-continued howl of de

time' they continued to .charge that
they were unconstitutional, and at
war with the best business interests
of.the - Country. Now, when the time
of their redemption is at hand, this
party takes precisely the opposite
ground; and wants them continued
indefinitely. Can such a party be
trusted ? Surely the shallowest dem

agogaism is the controlling influence
in that party.

UNDER the head " ponest Politics,"
the Potter County - Journal .thus re
fers to s kion. G. A. G so* and:his great
speech.. We hope the people of 'this
county may soon have the pleaspre
of hearifig Mr. G. discuss the political
issues of the day. Certainly no pub
lic man . in the Commonwealth has a
warmer place in the hearts of the Re
publicans here than Mr. GROW :
" The lion. Galusha. A. Grow has,
done many brave things. In Con
gress he showed \ s his physical courage
by promptly knocking down a bully
from . South Carolina who insulted
him, thus defying thewholefire-eat
ing braggarts south of Mason and
Dixon'S line. He has just shown his
moral courage by going into the hot
bed of Greenback inflation, and there
making a strong; manly appeal for
honest money, honest politics, and an
honest discharge of _ all obligations.
Mr. Grow is young, ambitious and
desirous of winning the people of
Pennsylvania to his support; and yet
he goes before 'them and combats
their cherished ideas, . overthrows
their idols and shows them the dis
honesty of some of their . schemes.
Can you point to another public man
in this Commonwealth who has shown
equal • moral coursge? .No greater
service was ever - done the Republican
party by, a, single effort than that
done by Mr. Grow in his Oil City
speech. It is felt in every Stateof
the Union. It has already given a
ereat impetus to honest politics.

COL. OVERTON IN SUSQUEHANNA
We were exceedingly gratified, on
a recent v sit -to Susquehanda county,
to • hear the very unanimous expres
ion on the part of - the Republicans
in favor of Col. IN'EILTON. No doubt
many of• our party in Susquehanna
would have felt a local :pride in snp
porting _a candidate from their own.
county, but 'their patriotism and fi
delity to • the principles of the Re
publican party lead them to yield a
willing acquiesence to the decision of
‘ 'the Conference.. •
Failing to secure the nominee for
their own county, Col.. OVERTON was
their nest choice, and we were as--
r sured on all hands that he would tell
the'entire party vote. The nomination
of so unpopular a man as 'W..11.
,DIMMOCK, has disgusted the better
portion of the democratic voters
many of whom will join the republi
cans in support of Col. OVERTON. •
IF Mr. LAMBERT'S letter to the .
Philadelphia ,purporting to
give the " political situation " in this
county is s, pir• sample of the infor
mation he is picking up, his conclu
sions.will need revising. His state
ment t fiat Col. OVERTON - already
beaten, 's several thousands votes
wide of ie mark. Such a result
is not claini d by the most enthusias
tic supporter % \ f either the Democrat
ic or Greenbac. candidate. There is
not v.n intelligent well-informed Man
in this district doubts' Col.
0 vEwroN's election y. an increased
majority.
)
Again, there is no mode danger of
the defeat of either of our \ legislative
candidates than there is of tlm, Times
peconlinEr an impartial newspaper.
Did we suppose Mr. LAMBERT obeys'
orders and niakesthe "political situa
tion T conform to the-sentiments Of \
his newspaper. Such "calculations"
-may aid in bolstering up the drooping
spirits of disheartened democrats,
but can hardly add to the good repu
tation of the Times. which professes
to be independent in politics. A
prediction for. you Mr. LAMBERT:
,The Fifteenth District will return
COI. OVERTON to his seat in Con
gress ; .the county send three reliable
Republicans to the Legislature, - and
elect tllwhole county ticket, and
swell Gn. Iforr's majority by at
least two thousand. Put that in
your pipe and smoke it.

Those who know Simon Cameron
never wonder at his great enemas in
life., Asa politician, he could not
help succeeding, for be is endowed
with every (panty which goes to
make a man opular among his fel
low-men. He , s genial and open
hearted ..to a \legree, -direct and
straightforward all his dealings,
says no thinly, and ever promises to
serve a man unless h meals to do it.
During all his long an\busy public
life he,made it a point t see as soon.
as he possibly could every man, wo
-man or child who called itp; ' him.
As a bank Cashire in a count s town,
as a Senator of the r llnited States, as
Secretary Of War, as the American
Minister to a great foreign powerot
home or abroad; -in Washington Or
• his farm, before elections or afte
elections he wasalwayik the same sim
"ple-mannered kingly-spoken gentle
man. He was always accessible to
those who sought him. . There was
no red tape about his office, and no
body-guard of insolent secretaries to
keep the public away frOm him.
• During all his life, Simon Cameron
has been essentially a popular leader
—a man of the people. His personal
following was at all times large and
enthusiastic. His trusted supporters
and advisers were 'always bis loyal
and devoted friends. If he wanted a
- thing done they never questionedhis
motives. it was enough for them to
know that he wanted ' it.. Nor were
they doubtful as to how he-would re
ward their services. " The old Gen
eral" was never known to forget a
kindness or to neglect his obligations
to those who had befriended him
He made the affairs of his followers
his own, what concerned them con
cerned him, when he succeeded they
succeeded, what helped him helped
them. They- all, knew this, and, of
course, worked the harder for the
knowledge. In, his every-day inter
course with the people, Gen. Cam
eron was ' always the best natured of
men. In a crowd he was the first to
peke way ; he seldom forgot a name
or a face, and, like Reuben E. Fen
ton, he was a wonderfully good hand
shaker. Only be shakes hands in a
different way. With his neighbors
and immediate constituents he has
always been hail-fellow-well-met,
walking along a country road be al
ways has a pleasant word and a smile
of recognit;on for those he meets. He
knows all the babies for miles around,
and is seldom without a red apple in
his pocket for his favorites. It is be
cause of these things that Simon
Cameron, during a lifetime of politi
. cal turmoil, could nearly always
count upon the popular support.
How successful he was in other re
spects„ how well he could manage
and control primaries and cifuensses
need not be related. It is only ne
i• cessary to state that he manipulated
. political machinery even more sue
-1 cessfully than he did popular assem
blies. In short, Simon Cameron' was
a shrewd, far-seeing politician, and a
great leader of the people.
TILE TREE FRIENDS OF 'LABOR.
Labor is and long has been iniluer,
tial in American politics. A few
in
dividuals now aim to make it supreme
in this field. They promise less hours
of work and more of relaxation ; les
sened costs of living and larger wa
gesoind other results, in . part im
probabicL-in part impossible. Were
they ably and disinterestedly led, true
to and capable of tat they seek, they
could achieve no tithe of the profit
for labor the„ Republican. : party has
achieved. By 'removing more than a
million laborers from slavery to free.
dom, the -RePubliCan party removed
.the greatest stigma upon and injury
to labor it ever had to encounter here,
and opened a clear way,to.whatever
education, influence, wealth and
standing it may choose to lake. By
this abolition the power of labor to
care for itself was in that degree en
larged and placed beyond diSpute.
By the same act all of the south Was
opened to.free northern labor, Where
N had toiled when employed undei
gimat - obloquy and scorn. By this
means labor was qualified to enter
upon manufacturer and they have
been organized in the south. By this
means abor was enabled to be more
potentially heard in Congress, and
the tariff amendments inimical to do
mestic industry were defeated. No
Labor party can under any circum
stances do a tithe of that for labor
that Republicanism. has . well and
wisely done. Laborers should there
fore sustain a proved .friend and. by
'no means abandon such a .reality for
vague and impossible promises and
flattery.—North . American.

• But the people also. pay interest
-Precisely ; and why, not ? They bor
row from the banks, and pay interest
\ bteause they can 'gain something
,by
ding so. For example, a man nts
to b y a farm, but lacks
. $l,OOO of the
eapi - I required. He, goes 'to the
bank, orrows the capital . - needed,
pays $G .or $BO-yearly, and his land
\
' yields hi \ ft profit of $6OO or $3OO
yearly.. Why should he grudgo the
trifle I whichit costa to employ the
capital of otiers ? Sometimes, of
course, a borrowot t . , does - not g ai n by
his operation. B t that is secause
he does not wisely invest the capital
borrowed ; perhaps . he has borrowed
more than he can probtably use. . If
so, he has only himself blame. If
he is judicious, he will borrci - w -only
where the use of capital nek his own
will enable him to gain more\than he'
has t.o pay for its use,
Suppose the Government issn all
the currency, and - the banks iSs ed
none, *here would . the man v; p
- wants capital go for it! Not to the\
Treasury. The Government borrows,
but does 'not lend. Necessarily, he
would go to a money lender; perhaps
the very one who now manages a Na
tional bank. Moreover, -he Wou1:1
pay at least . as high interest as be
pays for money -borrowed from a Na
tional bank. Nobody. will go up and
down in the land lending money for
nothing, or for smaller interest, be
cause Government has
. issued more
greenbacks-
. I.le who has, capital Will
still demand pay for the use of it,
and he who lacks capital will still
hate to,borrow it as best he can. - The
,men who, are now national bankers
will, of course, take their-capital out
of that business ; when they can no.
longer. issue currency ; being ae-'
quainted with the - .money lending
business., they will naturally becpme
private bankers. Of - course, they
will sell •the.bonds now on deposit;
they .cannot afford - to ' have money
drawing only 4, or 41, or 5 per cent
interest, when they can lend - it as
bankers at 7 or 8 per, cent.
Somebody else, perhaps in Europe,
will draw,•the interest from Govern
ment: The banker, getting back his
own capital, will lend it as he 'does
now, and the man who needs it and
borrows will pay at least as much for
it. ,
Who, then,.will be helped ? Not
the Government'; . it will pay to some
holder of its bonds exactly the inter
est which ikpays to a National bank,
.er. Not the borrowers ; they will go
to the banker for capital, as before,
and will pay him -- as much for it as
they pay new. Possibly the banker,
for he will then be . engSged in a busi
ness which no knavish repudiator can
imperil. He will care nothing lor
the credit of the Government, except
as any citizen may care, He will be
lending his own money, and will take
care to get good 'security. The race
of money-lenders never made gain•A'S
rapidly as in that age when the poor
tried to extort wealth by torture from
miserable Jews. The more harsh,
unjust or brutal the public sentiment
or the lap, the higher will be the
rate of ipterest demanded by those
who have money . from those who
need it.. Ina country of great unde
veloped resources -and many, hopeful
and enterprising
.borrowers, the man
is a public enemy, and. perticularly
an enemy of the borrowing class, who
tries to disturb the foundations of
credit or! to impair the security of
-capital. _

ttie late Queen of the gypsies in the
United Statee f took place at Dayton,
Ohio, on Sunday, in tb,e - presence of
over 23,000 people. The programme
ot--the services did not - differ essen
tially_rroin any Christian burial. If
any eternises ofa peculiar character
tookj.plaCe r they were apart from the
publindemonstratiOn. There wawa
long of carriages, and thesemi
.
.ces in the cemetery were-conducted
.by Rev. - Daniel,l3ergher; of the Uni
ted Brethererr Church,' of ' Dayton,
assisted by a quartet from the church
choirs of the city. The' gypsy Queen
died in Vieksbnrglsst February, and
her body- was' embalmed . in, such. a
manner that it, still retains the natu
ral aspect of life. It was placed in a
. vault in .the cemetery, • and every
,day members of • the late Queen's
;family have come ' with freak flowers
ito strew over her.. On Suitday there
were a dozen chiefs - and their tribes
in the - city from the.different,sections -:
of the United States, to pay rheir
last tribute to the dead Queen. The
deceased was a' plain, hardy-looking
old woman with a touch of. Meg
Ilkrrilies in her appearance, and a •
manner indicative .of a strong and
pronounced -Character. 'Then are
stories told of her wonderful Theulty”
of telling fortunes, when she pkasea;
and , her • - remarkable powers
_as
I measfnerist, both -qualities being ex
plained by the assertion that they -
were handed down to her as eldest
daughter of-the Stanley family,. and '
were secrets posessed by her alone.
She possessed - a singular-. influence
over her people that has not entirely
ceased with her death. Her subjects
came to America in 1856, and shortly
after selected Dayton as their head
quarters for the summer mor.ths,and
it became the centre for the gypsies '
of the country.. They • are good
neighbors, industrious and thrifty,
contrary to the usually conceived
idea. They have several large farms
ndkr the city. In the • winter they
pack up for the South, to speculate
d trade,vleaving one or two of, the
tribe to lea a ft er their property at
bonie. They are reverent. -church

Grand Lodge, I. O. 0. F. of the
United' States met in regular annual
session•at their hall on Gray street,
this morning. The last •seession,
which met in Baltimore a year ago
fixed ; upon Austin Texas, as the
place for this year's meeting, but,the
prevalence of yellow fever in the.
South and the consequent dangers
and ditliCulties of travel led the grand,
officers to change the place of meet-.
ing to Baltimore, which is the head.

• The grand body consists of one
hundred 'and forty-six represenatives,
nine grand oiticeis and ten past grand

present to-day;, The lodge was open.'
.
ed by the grand sire, .J..«`. Stokes,
folloWed with prayer by the grand
Chaplain, after which the annual re
ports of the grand sire, grand seem

The report of the •grand sire says
Whilst the 'annual returns exhibit an
inerase in the lodges and encamp

the first time since 1863 a fallin-0 -
in the membership' and revenue The
annual loss to the order in prosper

members for non-payment of dues, is
a' subject eminently worthy the best
consideration 'that We can give it;
and whilst large . accessions of new
and untried .material is' being con

find it occasionally .counterbalanced
(especially so at the present time) by
