A New National Holiday. It bus been
suggested by the Now 'York Kveniso Post,
nnd we observe that the suggestion is receiv
ed wit h n good deal of favor by thcPress gener
ally, that "Decoration Day," ns it is already
called, uhould become ft holiday that it
should be added to the small number of our
national festivities, nnd set apart as a day of
thanks for onr great deliverance, nnd of
grateful remembrance of those hrave soldiers
who gave their lives to the cause of the
Union nnd free Government. "The sugges
tion is a good one," remarks the New York
Times. "The 8th of January was kept un
til lately, in.memory of the bnttle ot New
Orleans nnd the triumph of American arms
under Andrew Jackson; but this custom has
been dropped. AYhy not adopt the practice
of keeping 'Decoration Day,' in honor of the
triumph of freedom nnd the Uuiou?"
A New York letter to the Chicago Jour
nal says: "The Postmistress of Richmond,
in addition to being a Federal spy witbiu
the Confederate lines, contributed very much
to the comfort of sick and wounded soldiers
who fell iulo rebel hands. She borrowed the
money from a friend to defray her expenses
in going to Washington and pressing her
claims for tho Ricbmond Post Office. Gen
eral Grant was knowing (o her valuable ser
vices in tho Union cutiic. On rereliing
Washington she went directly to tho Presi
dent. Ho immediately acquiesced iu her
request, and ncoompanying her to Postmast
er General Creswell's otlice, introduced her
and asked that her appointment be made out
at once. The position is worth 54,500 per
annum. This is the ou'y appointment which
the President has in Person asked Mr. Cres
wcll to make in his doptrtmcut. "
Rcmxer's 5i'eech. Tho London Spectator
talks cooly on this subject. It says: "On
tho whole, Mr. Sumner's speech impresses us
very deeply w ith the necessity there is for
candor on both sides of the Atlantic. Those
who feel keenly as we do tho moral strength
of Mr. Sumner's case against England, ought
to favor every opportunity for informally ex
pressing that keeu senso of regret and morti
fication: which wo heartily believe that the
great majority of the people of Great Britain
and Ireland entertain with regard to tho con
duet of tho ruliug class during the first four
four years of the civil war." This shows at
least that there nro Englishmen who can dis
cern something like jnstico in the claims of
this Government, nnd of insincerity in the
dealings of the English Government.
Ci:r Finances. Tho public debt state
ment for May, shows tho total debt of the
nation to be a little over fc2,f21, 000,000
deducting cash on hand including $5G,000,
1)00 issued to the Pacific railway. There was
in the Treasury on tho 1st June 105,180,
189 in coin and $23, 077,850 of currency.
During the month of May tho Secretary
sold $5,000,000 in gold, receiving therefor
7,000,000 in curreucy, and purchased dur
iug that time 3,000,000 of bonds at a pre
mium of 700,000 in currency. It will also
be observed that ho docreaso in tho public
debt during month of May was 813,381,777,
and the decrea.-e since the 1st of March has
been over $20,000,000.
The Fifteenth Amendment is in fresh peril
This time it is not from reluctant Legisla
tures that the danger comes, but from a new
nnd unexpected quarter in short from the
Woman's Bureau. The last regular weekly
meeting of the National Woman's Suffrage
Association took open grouuds against the
measure in question, and a resolution offered
by Miss Anthony was carried, declariug that
"we repudiate tho Fiflt.'iiiith Amendment,
because by its passage in Cougress tho Repub
lican Party proposes to substitute ax aristo
racy of race, the mo3t odious distinction
in citizenship that has yet deen proposed
BLSCB NATIONS HAD AN EXISTENCE."
The New York Times prououuees against
the validity of tho ratification by the late In
diana Legislature of theXVth Amendment
of tho Federal Constitution, on grounds
which seem narrow and superficial The
New York Tribune puts its view of tho
vital matter in question into tho shape of a
proposition ns follows: "It could not have
been tho design of the Convention which
framed the present Constitution of Indiana
to enable a decided minority of one Ilouse
31 of tho 100 Representatives, or 17 of the
50 Senators to paralyze the action and de
stroy the capacity of the law-making power."

The current year will largely add to our
facillitics to communicate with tho Old
World by Cablo. In addition to tho French
Cable which will soon be laid, wo now have
a dttplicato lino from Loudon to Yalentia,
which will be exclusively used for transmit
ting Cable dispatches. Of tho two Atlantic
Cables, both of which are uow in good work
ing order, one will in future, be exclusively
used for sending dispatches from Yalentia to
America, and the other for receiving Ameri
can dispatches. Thus tho telegraphic com
munication between New York and London
will now bo iustantaneous.
A Singular Lecial Mistake: Two Inno
cent Men sent to State Prison. The Cold-
water (Mich.) RfTuni.irAN brings ns the par
ticulars of quite a remarkable case of mis
taken identity in a criminal trial. In tho
afternoon of November 14, 1808, the house
of Jcrimiah Lockwood, a farmer in Ovid, iu
that cnuuty, was eutered, and several hun
dred dollars in money nud goods taken there
from. Two dnys alter, James Officer nnd
Thomas AVhitty were nrrestPd nt Sturgis,
Mich., charged with tho larceny. They
were, in February last, convicted und sen
tenced to State Prison for three years, by
Judge Bacon, there being but little del'eneo
made. J lie accused claimed that thev had
ood defense, but could not procure their
witnesses. A new trial was obtained, and
they were brought back from the t-'tato Pris
on and put on trial tho second time last week
and their witnesses being in attendance, they
were able to make full defence. Some twen
ty or more witnesses, of the best character,
identified them us tho thieves seen driving
across tho country with tlie plunder, quite
minntel7 describing, their nppeuruiico nnd
identifying them in tho court room with
great po-sitiveni'SS. But thev proved a com
plete ai.iw by unanswerable testimony.
Officer, that ho was iu Niles on the day of
the theft; and Whitty, that ho was in While.
I igeon. Moreover, a man recently sent
from Cass county for horse stealing, was
brought from State Prison, who nvowed h'nn
self ns one of the real thieves, nnd gave the
name of his confederate, who is serving out
a two year term in Indiana.
Damaging Testimony. The English build
ers of tho rebel ship Alabama, have publish
ed a letter, of which a Cablo telegram says:
The letter of the Messrs. Laird clafnis that
the building of tho Alabama was done in the
way o( business, and free of concealment. It
was known to tho Government and public,
and with tho knowledge of the American
Minister. The vessel was meant for war pur
poses, and intended for tho uso of the Confed
erate Government. It was uortorious that
no haste or secrecy was observed iu any of the
operations. Had their been anything illegal
iu the buildiDg or fitting out of tho ship,
ample time and opportunity existed for the'
Government to seize her, nnd tho officers of
Custom House were informed on the 21st of
July that she was ready for sea, nud might
leave at any hour she pleased. No attempt
was made to detain her, though Passmore and
others made affidavits that men were enlisted
to serve on her. They take the ground the
contract entered into for tho building of the
ship was not nt variance with tho laws of
England, tho opinion of tho English people
or practice of foreign nations. They quote
writteu opinions which they allege support
their position and go to show that the Ala
bama loft Birkenhead unarmed, aud went to
Azores, to which place men und arms were
sent from other ports. .
A young lady of the most respectable
character was recently arrested in Concord,
X. II., for theft of clothing and jewelry.
She is in jail awaiting trial. The daughter
of a banker in Chicago aud the niece of a
gruiu dealer in St. Louis have lately beeu ac
cused of stealing while shopping, but the
matter was hushed up aud they were not
brought to trial. Two weeks ago a woman
moving iu the wealthier circles of Creole
society, if we may believe tho New Orleans
newspapers, were detected in like peccadillos.
Late San Francisco papers contain a similar
story. The dunghtiir of a wealthy merchant
in New York is serving a second term in
Sate Prison for larceny. These cases seem
to indicate that nil thieving does not come
of necessity, and that ho malady known as
klcptoinuuia is not confined to any special
class.
Senator Wadb had an interview with tho
President on Monday. Ho said that if ho
was President he would takocareof his party
friends and let the other fellows go. The
President intimated that friends might be
too exorbitant, and the ex Senator responded
that he would let them make tho most of it
if they wero not satisfied with what they got.
But both tho President and tho ex-Senator
agreed that the Presidency was not what it
was cracked up to bo, nnd that private life
was fur preferable to public.
The Round Table proposes that Staten
Island should be made the entrepot of the
foreign commerce of New York, and the
place of landing for all its ocean steamers.
Why not? It is as easy to go from Staten
Island in a ferryboat as from Jersey City or
Brooklyn; and it is plain that Manhutten
Island and the shores of its two great rivers
will not long sulueo tor the enormous tramc
which is constantly gatering around the buy
of New York.
There are supposed to be40,000 Christians
in Japan, who have to practice their religion

then drowned, like kittens, with fctoues
around their necks. All attempts nt conver
sion are strictly lorbidden by treaty, and sal

From tiir Soutil Chief Justico Chase,
writing from Charleston, South Carolina, in
reply to an invitation to be present at the
decoration of the graves of the Union dead,
puts this on record:
Tho nation cannot too tenderly cherish the
memory of her dead heroes, or too watchful
ly guard the well-being of thos who survive.
And may we not indulge tho hope that ere
long we who adhered to the National cause
will be prompt nlso to join in commemora
ting the heroism of our countrymen who fell
on tho othes side, nnd that those who now
specialty mourn their loss, consenting to the
arbitrament of urines nud resuming all their
old love for their country, nnd onr couutry,
ono nnd indivisible, will join with us in like
commemoration of the fallen brave of the
Army of the Union.

A Monster Bass Drum. Tho largest bass
drum in the world, niado under the direction
of the veteran drummer, Nahum J. Baldwin,
arrived in Boston last week. Tho heads
measure nearly eight feet each in diameter,
and are made from the hides of two mam
moth oxen which have been exhibited
through the country during several years
past. On each head is the motto "Let us
have Fence. " The drum is about three feet
through from head to head, nnd the rim is
painted red, white nnd blue. It was ordered
especially for tho forthcoming National
Peoeo Jubilee. Mr. Baldwin pronounces it
perfect in nil itspnrts nnd the manufacturer
st:ite that it is tho largest drum in the world,
and no larger one can be niado unless the
hides of elephants are used for the heads.
"Kansas," iu tho Pittsburgh Gazette thus
pleads for Gov. Geary's reoomination:
Of course nil loyal men are grateful for his
eminent services during the late wur, but a
greater meed of gratitude will be awarded
him for his nnblo deeds as Governor of Knn
sns, by all lovers of Liberty, Justice nnd
Law, than for iUI the heroism nnd executive
ability which have so signally illustrated his
course since that critical period in our na
tional history. 1 he writer oi tins was inti
mately associated with the pioneerea of free
dom in Kansas, and had a large sharo in the
light through winch Liberty gained her first
substantial victory over the slave oligarchs.
A largo share of the glory of that victory
was due to Governor Geary, for his faithful-
ne: to litherty nnd Lnw while Governor of
Kansas, nnd I trust nil who rememher those
perilous days will not foil to remember John
. Geary in .the se'.cciiou of delegates to the
coming State Convention.

Tho Hon. Oliver P. Morton, ono of the

lishes in the Indianapolis Journal an elab

action of tho Legislature of that State on
the adoption of the XVth Amendment of
the Constitution of tho United States. The
Const itution of the State provides that '.'Two
thirds of each House shall constitute a quor
um to do business. " Tho number ol Senators
for Indiana is fixed by-law ot 50, with 100
members of the Lower House. Mr. Morton
maintains with much force of argument that
the two-thirds provided for in the Coustitu
tion means two-thirds of the actual member
ship of either House for the time being
that is to sny: iu a full House of 100 mem
bers n quorum would be 07; but if by death
or resignation the membership should be re
duced to CO, Ihen to 40 would constitute a
quorum.
Advices from Cuba report s severe engage

Hair Vigor,
For restoring Cray Hair to
its natural Vitality and Color.
A dressing which
is at once agreeable,
healthy, and effectual
for preserving tho
hair. Faded or gray
hair is soon restored
to its original color
with the gloss and
freshness of youth.
Thin iiair is thick
ened, falling hair checked, and bald
ness often, though not always, cured
by its use. Nothing can restore tho
hair where the follicles aro destroyed,
or the glands atrophied nnd decayed.
But such as remain can be saved for
nscfulness by this application. Instead
of fouling tho hair with a pasty sedi
ment, it will keep it clean and vigorous.
Its occasional use will prevent the hair
from turning gray or falling off, and
consequently prevent baldness. Free
from those deleterious substances which
make some preparations dangerous and
injurious to the hair, the Vigor can
only benefit but not harm it. If wanted
merely for a
HAIR DRESSING,
nothing else can bo found so desirable.
Containing neither oil nor dye, it docs
not soil white cambric, aud yet lasts
long on the hair, giving it a rich glossy
lustre and a grateful perfume.

liable protector against tbein. Whilo adapted to
milder forms of disease and to young children, it is
at the same time the most cUoctual remedy that can
be giveu for incipient consumption, and the dan
gerous ufloctions of the throat and lungs. As a pro
vision against sudden attacks of Croup, it should
be kept on hand in every family, nnd indeed as all
nre sometimes subject to cohU and coughs, nil
should be provided with this nntidoto for them.
Although settled Consumption is thought in
curable, still great numbers or cases w here the dis
case seemed settled, havo been completely cured,
nml the patient restored to sound health by the
Cherry J'rrloral. So complete is its mastery
over the disorders of the Lungs and Throat, that
the most obstinate of thcin yield to it. When noth
ing else could reach them, under tho Cherry I've
tornl they subside nml disappear.
Siiifrm and 1'ublic Speakers find great pro
tection from it.
A t limit u always relieved and often wholly
cured by it.
Jlranchltlf is generally cured by taking the
Cherry J'eetoral in small and frequent doses.
bo generally nre its virtues known that we need
not publish the certificates of them hero, or do more
than assure the public Uiat its qualities aro fully
niuintuined,
Ayer's Ague Cure,
For Fever and Acruo, Intermittent Fever,
Chill Fever. Remittent Fever, Dumb
Ague, Periodical or Bilious Fever, &c,
and indeed all the affections which arise
from malarious, marsh, or miasmatio
poisons.
As its nanio implies, it does Cure, and does not
fail. Containing neither Arsenic, Quinine, Uismuth,
Zinc, nor any other mineral or poisonous substance
whatever, it in nowise injures any patient. The
number and importance of its cures' in the ague dis
tricts, arc literally beyond nccount, and we believe
without a parallel in the history of Ague medicine.
Our pride is gratifled by tho acknowledgments wo
receive of the radical cures efl'ccted in obstinate
cases, nnd where other remedies hail wholly failed.
TJnacelimateil persons, either resident' in, or
travelling through miasmatic localities, will bo pro
tected by taking the AC.VE CVJiF. daily.
For IJrer ('omplnhittt. arising from toniiditv
of the Liver, it is an excellent remedy, stimulating
the Liver into healthy nclivitv.
For Bilious Disorders and Liver Complaints, it is
nn excellent reniedv, producing mum- trulv re
markable cures, where other medicines nnd failed.
