Fraud be Justified by Suc
cess?
The full'.iwing recent letter from Mr.
Adams is just published :
Quincy, November o, 1877.
IP. Dorsheimer, Esq., Neic York:
My Dear Sir : At 4 o’clock it is so
dark to-day in my library that I can
scarcely write straight to recognize yours
of the 31st ult, and the reception of a
copy of your remarks. I have read it
with much pleasure. It is a firm but
moderate statement of the case before
us in politics. I do not perceive in the
public press any adequate treatment of
the matter. The moral effect upon the
public mind of success in elections through
the agency of fraud, as exemplified in the
last election, ought to be counteracted
with the greatest vigor, or else both sides
will be sure to concentrate all their pow
ers upon cheating as the great instrument
for triumph. It does no credit to the Re
publican party that it has not instituted
an honest investigation of the facts of
the case last year. Their shunning all
allusion to the matter betrays their sense
of its truth.
Vet there appears to be a languid
movement toward au amendment, of the
Constitution, as if that was all that was
necessary to reinstate matters. If the
earnest spirit be wanting, no good can
come out of any artificial device. The
question is, shall fraud be justified by
success? The Republicans now stand
upon that ground. It seems to me to be
the duty of all honest men to counteract
this tendency by upholding the great
maxim of law as well as of morals, that
fraud spoils everything that it touches.
I trust that as time passes, the import
ance of this question will be more appre
ciated. To me it is of little moment, as
matters of this sort rarely move so rapid-
]y as the generations of the race experi
ence change. You are younger and can
hope to do more useful work than
Yiurs very truly,
C. F. Adams.
No Rest Here-
A Good Teacher
Educational Weekly.]
A truly good teacher is cheap at any
price. A poor one is dear at aDy price.
So, too, if a good one be necessary in any
school, he becomes equally necessary in
every school. Hence two hundred and
fifty thousand competent teachers are
necessary to supply this country alone.
To provide such a host of skilled educa
tors is a far more difficult task than to
raise, equip, discipline, and support an
army of equal numbers. It is, moreover,
a more important undertaking, and nec
essarily involves a far greater expendi
ture of time, labor and money, if it is to
be well deme. True teaching or educa
tional power is not and cannot be a cheap
commodity, because it is not only rare
but is a more difficult and
higher order of work than any
other confided to human hands. The
tiller of the soil, the artificer in wood
and iron, or even the painter and sculptor,
with all their delicacy of conception and
refinment of touch, have an easy task in
comparison with the true educator who
works upon the subtle forces of mind
and spirit, seeking to mold his precious
materials into the divine symmetry, uni
ty and beauty of a perfect character. If
a high order of talent and skill be re
quired in these lower, perishable forms of
human workmanship, how much more
should be exacted of those who labor
upon imperishable materials, and who
are thus shaping the characters of beings
destined to a life that knows neither lim
itation or decay.
It is far easier to feign repsect when
we do not feel it, than to express it when
we actually do; for which reason frank,
striaightforward people always appear
hypocritical to suspicious ones. The
very fear of seeming deceitful makes us
seem so.
Some there are who gaze intently
into the the well of truth, but only in
hopes of seeing their own image reflect
ed there.
Fancy rules over two-thirds of the
universe, the past and the future, while
reality is confined in. the present.
Men get fond of the very defects of a
woman they love—as they do of choco
late and tobacco though horribly unpa
latable at first.
Good sense is the body of poetic gen
ius; fancy, its drapery; motion, its life;
and mangnetisw, the soul, that is every
where, forming all into one graceful and
intelligent whole.
Little minds rejoice over the errors of
men cf genius, as the owl rejoices at an
eclipse.
Gray hairs seem like the light of a
soft morn, silvering over the evening of
life.
The House Committe on the Judicia
ry has the case of Congressman Smalls
before it, being instructed to inquire in
to the practical effect of his recent con
viction on the charge of swindling the
State of South Carolina. The question
whether Smalls privileges, as a member
of Congress, are abridged by this convic
tion we should suppose would be easily
answered. But Small is not the worst
man in the world, says the Macon Tele
graph, and we believe has been drifted
into this thing by the influence of white
rascals. Smalls’ kindness to his old
master and mistress, since freedom, as
sures us that his heart is in the right
place, and we are sorry for him.
Washington, Nov. 21.—The House
occupied all day considering the deficien
cy bill, which appropriated about one
and a half million dollars. The two
principal items are to pay judgments of
the Court of Claims and the salaries of
postmasters. Oc motion of Waddell, of
North Carolina, an amendment was
adopted, rendering available for the Star
service of the postofiice, carrying the
mails on other than railroad and steam
boat’s routes 8700,000, heretofore appro
priated but not expended. The amend
ment, however, was voted down in the
House. No further action was taken on
the bill.
London, Nov. 22.—Operations near
ustchuk, reported by Russians and
irkish bulletins, indicate a disposition
i the part of the Turks to attempt a
petition of Mehemet Ali’s tactics, for
lieving Pievna, by threatening the
tarowitch’s army and the Danube
ossings. The Turks have repeatedly
serted that the Czarowitch’s force has
ten materially weakened in order to
rengthen other positions. Suleiman
isha seems to be still in command on
e Lom.
London, Nov. 21.—The Times finan-
] column says : In consequence of
i low rate of discount at Paris busi-
is may now be expected to be divert-
thither and rates here be correspond-
;ly weaker, though no reduction of
j Bank of England rates of five per
it is anticipated, until its reserve is
iterially strengthened.
lew York, Nov. 20.—Julius Kircher,
utheran, and his wife, a Jewess, be-
unable to agree to the burial of t heir
d child in either a Christian or He-
w cemetery, agreed to cremate it,
ch was done at the chemical works
vhich the father is proprietor.
atamohas, Nov. 22.—Fifteen prom-
t citizens have been imprisoned for
;ed complicity with Escobedn.
J. D. D.,in Our Home Journal.
“Oh 1 how I long for rest” _■ All hu
manity cries for rest In passing down
a certain street in the city with a friend,
it was a locality well known to him—
said he to me—“One would be inclined
to think that the occupants of these
fine houses are happy; but I assure
you that in most of them something is
the matter. In that one it is conjugal
infelicity; in that a desolate father; in
that, an idiot child.” These remarks
brought forcibly to my mind the oft-re
peated cry, “there is no rest here.”
From the time we enter life, a great
many vexations and annoyances beset
us. We have our holidays, and our
seasons of recreations and quiet; but
wheie is the man who, having attained
his sixtieth year, has found entire rest?
I answsr “none.” Men try to rest bere.
They build mansions, erect great stores,
possess emblazoned carriages, high
mettled steeds, tapestry on which float
riches of foreign looms, canvas on the
wall flashing back splendor, their plate
confounds those who sit at their tables.
Here they would rest Draw the cur
tain, extinguish the light, ar.d let slum
ber come, and place them beyond all
care, anxiety and ‘rouble. But, no!
anxiety rattles at the door—care turns
aside the canopy, and looks beneath;
trouble, with rough touch, startles the
pulses; they cry out, “No rest here 1”
“How,’.’ said anxiety, “shall you die?
Who shall inherit your fortune? What
will they do with it? Riches some
times take wings and fly.” Rising on
one elbow, the man of fortune looks
out into the darkness and cries out:
“What is wealth and magnificence to
me; ‘there is no rest here.’ ” The river
says, “No rest here.” We go to the
sea, the ocean says, “No rest here.” We
ask the rock-beund shore, the moun
tains cry, “No rest here.” No rest for
mat this side of the grave; he must
work, toil, suffer, slave, and die.

Healthy Climate.
Dan Marable was once strolling
along the wharfs in Boston, whpn he
met a tall, gaunt looking figure, a “dig
ger'' from California, and got into con
versation with him.
“Healthy climate, I suppose?”
“Healthy! it ain’t anything else.
Why, stranger, there you can choose
any climate you like, hot or cold, that,
too, without travelin’ more than fifteen
minutes. Jest think o’ that the next
cold mornin’ when you get out o’ bed.
There’s a mountain there, the Sary
Navady they call it, with a valley on
each side of it, one hot and one cold.
Well, get on the top of that mountain
with a double-barrelled gun. and you
can, without movin’, kill either sum
mer or winter game, jest as you wish.”
“What! have you tried it?”
“Tried it ? often; and shouid have
done pretty well but for one thing.”
“Well, what was that ?”
“I wanted a dog that would stand
both climates. The last dog I bad
froze his tail off while pintin’ on the
summer side. He didn't get entirely
out of the winter side, you see—true as
you live.”
Paris, Nov. 21.—The Republique
Francaise declares that in view of the
Senate’s pretensions and the President’s
refusal to change his policy, it becomes
the clear duty of the Chamber of Dep
uties to refuse to vote the budget. The
Chamber must save the country. No
budget must be voted as long as the
majority has not a Ministry in whom it
can place confidence.
London, Nov. 21.—The Times has a
leading article on the French situation
which concludes as follows : The mod
erate Right of the Senate did not mean
to produce the mischief they have oc
casioned, but the result is before us.
The powers of France are arrayed
against one anoter like army against
army.

Washington, Nov. 22.—Senator Ed
munds submiltled a motion to dis
charge the Committee of Privileges and
Elections from the consideration of the
case of Kellogg and Spofford: rejected
by 30 to 32.
Senator Edmunds then moved that
the further consideration be postponed

Cincinnati, Nov. 21.—The National
Grange met here to-day. Delegates are
present from all the States- The main
part of the work of the meeting must
be the crystalization and systemizing
of Grange work, and a decision must be
reached whether there shall be any
longer a National Grange; and.if so,
what shall be its functions, powers and

London, Nov. 21.—Heavy fighting
on the Lom on Monday in which the
Turks claim advantage. A Russian
official dispatch admits that their out
posts were temporarily driven. Both
accounts agree that the Turks after se
vere fighting temporarily occupied and
burned Pirgos. Suleiman Pasha has
arrived at Rutschuk.
Wasaington, Nov. 21.—The Finance
Committee finished the silver bill, and
will report it this afternoon. It is as it
came from the House, except that- the
Government shall coin not less than
two million nor more than four million
of silver dollars per month. The House
is considering the deficiency in the ap
propriation bill.
London, Nov. 22.—A special to the
Times, dated Rome,Nov.21,says: The
Pope received some French pilgrims
yesterday. He spoke a few words with
great difficulty. The feebleness of his
voice and his suffering, which was ap
parent, made a melancholy impression.
He was carried by four chairmen.
London, Nov. 20.—It is unofficially
announced that the Montenegrins have
stormed Spitz, but are kept in check by
Turkish ships in the Roadstead.
It is believed that Russia is disin
