Onu. SpjXJ>T.n's father was a Ger
man priest, his mother a German
nun; but somehow love slipped into
the cloister and abbey and triumphed
over monastic vows. Although the
civil laws of their native country
sanctioned thoir marriage, their
ehureii forbade it, so they emigrated
to America, settling in Herkimer
county, Now York, where the Gener
al was born.
The house of .7. B. Ford & Cos.,
which suspended on last Thursday,
are tho publishers of Mr. Beechers
Life of Christ. They paid Mr. Beech
er *io,oou in advance six years ugo,
and the Now York Sun says that it
would have been completed years
ago, but for Beecher’s selfishness and
self-indulgence. The publishers paid
upward of *OO,OOO in engravings and
other embellishments, together with
the incidental costs.
An article appeared in our paper
under the signature or “Luke.” Wo,
ip overlooking it at tho time nogleot
ed to state tliat tho Times did not en
dorse tho opinions therein expressed.
We propose to admit articles on both
sides of all important questions,
though we may disagree in toio with
tho views expressed by our corres
pondents. In the communication
here referred to we certainly Cfnnot
agree with our correspondent, whose
signature Is "Luke.”
-
The abundant rains of tho post two
days hove very materially helped the
cotton crops. Tho dumago already
sustained is, however, so great that
tho crop will necessarily be a very
short one. Corn cannot bo helped
much by good seasons now. Most of
it In this section is yellow, “spind
ling,” and stunted. Our farmess have
bravely planted a much larger area
than usual in corn, this year, and it
seems a pity that adverse seasons
should go against them. We should
not be surprised if we hear the cry of
too much ruin all over the State in
the next Ufteou days. August rains
are hurtful when in excessive quanti
ties.
The Hon. Reveriiy Johnson, of
whom the Now York Tribuiui stays
"tliero is no man in this country
whoso opinion on a question of law
will be more readily taken,” in a let
ter to that impel- takes stroup: ground
in fuvor of establishing an inter-na
tional copy right. In this ho sustains
the views of the English author,
Charles Reado. The ignorance, greed
uud favoritism of publishers have
much to do with the ills of the author.
This, coupled with the general peru
sal of daily journals, have sadly im
paired the higher walks of literature.
It is not right that the works of Dick
ens should he published in America
for the exclusive benelitof publishers
of cheap editions of Ids works, against
the will and Interests of the author
himself.
The telegraph brought us news
Saturday of an uneasy nature from
Union Springs, Ala. While we can
not approve of so violent an act as
murder, which, however, it is by no
menus certain that. Mr. Grady was
ths filltlior of, yet wo know the crime
of arson to be one wlifeh our courts
under present circumstances, can
hardly punish as is necessary. When
it is considered that an average of
one hundred gin houses have been
annually burnt in Georgia since 1805,
and that each gin house and contents
so burnt, is worth at a low estimate
$5,000, and that no man lias been
punished for this wipe which takes
away from our heavily burdened
planters a half million of dollars an
nually, the crime of murder is hard
ly to be wondered at. Our planters
commenced after the war with a
heavy burden of debt, much of it con
tracted just, before the war. They
have manfully worked to pay up
principal and interest. In hundreds
of instances this desirable object was
onthijoveof accomplishment when
the negro Incendiary, animated by
malice caused by some trivial offence
bn the part of the farmer, or his co
pborers working in another squad,
applies the torch, and the hardwork
ing planter lias to commence anew
the struggle of life, with the incubus
of ijlcreosiug debt, and a large fami
ly to support. Thus the farmer is
forced to take the homestead, or his
family will starve. Tush ranee eom
pauios demaud enormous rates, ami
it the gin is run by steam, it is difll
eult to get it insured at any rate. 1 lie
negro is arrested, ciroumstancial evi
dence of the strongest character in
t reduced, and the nmm j mores an
alibi' by some accomplice perhaps,
and is' released to repeat his act
whenever it suits him. \\ e do not
wonder that rates of insurance are
high.

The above is the most remarkable
personal history, marked by the
strongest individuality, of any public
man since tho Government was
founded. Andrew Johnson’s defects,
as well us the strong points of his
character, were caused by bis lack of
an early education. His prejudices
were always against the wealthy and
cultivated classes; his sympathies,
over with the poor and oppressed. In
France he would have been a red
republican isolated from his party as
soon as tho Commune wus establish
ed. In America he inay be rogarded
as the apostle of Democracy. No
other character in our history ever
rose as high from an origin so ob
scure. Like Alexander 11. Stephens,
his life has been passed in the study
of the. science of government, no
other pursuit having been followed*
siuee early manhood. He was the
political idol of the poorer classes of
Tennessee, and hisweultli of intellect
commanded tho support of the whole
State more nearly than any Other
candidate ever did. Firm in his con
victions, compromise was utterly for
eign to his nature. In his political
creed there was no juste milieu—no
middle ground. His character is well
illustrated by tho following: In the
oontest for Senator, in which lie was
elected over Meredith I’. Gentry, in
1855, violence and threats of murder
were frequent. At. ono of tho meet
ings Johnson appeared with a pistol
in Ids hand, laid it on the desk, and
said, “Fellow-citizens, I have been
informed that part, of the business
to bo transacted on the present occa
sion is the assassination of the indi
vidual who now has the honor of ad
dressing you. 1 beg, respectfully, to
propose tliat this be t he llrst business
in order. Therefore, if any man has
come here to-night for the purpose
indicated, I do not say to him, let him
speak, but let him shoot.” After
pausing for a moment, with his hand
on his pistol, ho said, “Gentlemen, it
appears that I have been liiisinfurin
ocl.' I will now proceed to address
you.” Another Instance in point is
this proclamation : “In every in
stance in which a Union mun is ar
rested or maltreated, live or more
rebels, from the most prominent in
the immediate neighborhood, shall
bo arrested and imprisoned, or other
wise dealt with; nml further, in all
cases where the property of citizens
loyal to tho Government of the United
States is taken or destroyed, full and
ample remuneration shall be made
to them out of tho property of such
rebels in the vicinity ns have symi>a
thized with, and given uid, comfort,
information or encouragement to,
tlie parties committing such depre
dations.” Yet the South afterwards
looked to Andrew Johnson as its
strongest advocate when President
and Senator.
The injustice of law is well ex
pressed in the circumstances attend
ing the failure of Duncan, Sherman
& Cos. Although the firm have
“filled” they have been enabled to
retain, in the name of the elder Dun
can, property to the amount,..of sl.-
213,500. The Tribune says:
An examination of the deeds on file
at the Register’s office shows that the
deed of transfer of the banking house
at l’ine and Nassau streets is dated
in the year 1888, and the deed of
transfer of No. 11 Pine street, is dated
1874. The deed of the Lyceum Thea
ter was executed in 1873. Not any of
those deeds were recorded until this
week, the banking house deeds on
the day before the failure, and the
Lyceum Theater deed on the day of
the failure. The name of the grantee
in each euso is freshly Inserted in a
different handwriting from the body'
of the deed. An examination of the]
books at the Register's office shows!
the following transfers of property by
the principal members of the firm,
indicating where their valuable real
estate lias gone to:
Then follows a description of the
property, aggregating $1,218,500, as
stated above.
A Tribune reporter last evening
asked a well-known real estate lawyer
what could have been the reason for
the non-recording of the property
which was actually conveyed to the
father, Alexander Duncan, in 1888
i and 1874. He was told that, so far
| back as 1888, the llrm must have an
ticipated such a misfortune as has
now happened, and the property was
j conveyed to the father with an appa
! rent understanding that the deeds
j were not to bo recorded unless in an
I emergency like the present. In the
meantime, by non-recording the
! deeds for seven years, which is an
unusual occurrence, the community
was led to believe that the title to the
property was still in the hands of its
former owners, while virtually it had
been conveyed to the father, Alexan
der Duncan.
Tot platform of tho Minnesota He
publlcuns is stronger and more ex
plicit on subjects about which every
body Is agreed than in regard to some
about which thore is wide and impor
tant difference of opinion. Tho cur
rency plank, for instance, Is not as
definite in tormfl as might rairly be
desired, and is not even as outspoken
for hard money ns wus that of the
Minnesota DeiiKMiruts on I lie tmnir
su bjoot.
Chili seems to be the most pro
gressive country in South America.
A World’s Fair Is to be held at the
capital, Santiago, in MTfl, to the suc
cess of which the merchants And
manufacturers of nil nations are ex
pected to contribute, Tho imports of
Chili are nearly double per head the
Imports of ttie United States.
The living relatives of Lord Byron
declined tho honor of contributing to
tho monument to his memory. Lady
Anne Blunt, his granddaughter,
writes us follow# to the committee:
We have not forgotten that when
Lord Byron’s remains were brought
buck to England they were refused a
resting place in Westminster Abbey;
that it was left to his sister, Mrs,
Leigh, and hi# friend, Mr. Hobhouse
—perhaps the two who loved him
best, -to bury him, and that together
ttiey placed a tablet to his memory.
What their affection deemed suita
ble we still hold to bo enough, nor
can we think that the udditou of a
slab placed by subscription in Huck
null Church would mid anything to
the dignity of the poet's tomb. At
least, it, is not for the public wbiou
denied u worthier grave to take now,
after fifty years, utiaskiug from Ills
family, the guardianship of theii
deatl.
Th"i: Richmond Whig has the fol
lowing sensible remarks about the
next presidency:
The time lias not yet arrived when
any man of the South who was in
sympathy with the Confederate cause
could be prudently brought before tlie
eouiitry for President or Vice-Presi
dent, And no man who was not in
sympathy with that cause could ire
consistently put upon the ticket with
the view of making him the represen
tative of the Southern sentiment ami
spirit of reconciliation.

THE QUESTION IN VIROINIA—A I'LA IN
ELATEOUM.
The Richmond Dispatch lays down
its financial platform us follows :
J. No contraction law.
2. No forced resumption. Resump
tion will come when it gets ready,
not before. To force it disables the
country from resuming by causing
panic, and pressure, and monetary
revulsion.
U. No curtailment of greenbacks as
long as the National debt is equal to
the amount of tliat currency uiloat;
because the people pay no interesi
upon it, and tliat is, therefore, the
best form tiie debt can take.
I. The issue of national bonds,
bearing interesi at the rate of 3.65 per
annum, interest convertible with
greenbacks ns a practical auxiliary
“Governor” that would help to regu
late the movement of paper money
according to demand and supply.
5. Tho payment of the duties on
imports in currency as the best means
of breaking up the gambling in gold
and cutting down tne gold premium ;
moreover, as a matter of justice, the
Government not. being Justifiable in
selecting a class of citizens reputable
employed to bear unequal ami on
erous burdens; and, furthermore, the
Government having no right to de
mand tho payment of gold for cur
rentdebts to Itself while it pays its
own current obligations in paper
money.
6. Ns currency-tinkering; no new
banking and banking-laws tending to
change our present system of banks,
by which we have a better paper cur
rency t han we ever before had ucur
rency completely guarded against all
danger of loss to the (icople. This is a
national blessing that Is well appre
ciated by those who remember how
the nation has in times past lost mil
lions upon millions by the failures of
national and State banks, and the
numerous fraudulent hanks estab
lished without luw, and which filled
the laud with their fraudulent notes
and then failed.
7. A firm adherence to tills policy
is the best means of restoring confi
dence, revh ing enterprise, encourag
ing industry, giving occupation and
contentment to all. A few years of
peace, and recovery and growth In
all departments of national economy,
will bring thejieoplo out of tho wil
derness, and along with national re
sumption of order and prosperity
bring that resumption of gold pay
ment which the money dealers are
pressing with such sordid purimses
and such disregard to the true inter
ests of the nation.

delicate membranes of the urinary organs are the
result if the water is not regularly aud properly
carried through tho kidneys.
The Cordial Balm of Syrieum
is effectual in promoting the secretion of the wa
tery and unnutritious portions of the food, and
in carrying it off by its proper outlets.
Whatever portion of our food is unserviceable
should be passed off in tho water iu sweat, and
from the bowels. If these useless matters arc
relaiued disease is sure to follow, for then the
bloi>d becomes poisoned with the impurities
which should pass off in their proper channels.

(Davenport Democrat, Davenport, lowa.]
How few people are found without some indi
cations of nervous disease. This truth has been
recognized ever since classic ages, when s sound
mind iu a sound body was held as the perfection
of human existence. Some from congenial dis
ease, others from youthful indiscretions, some
from alcoholic indulgence or too free use of to
bacco. suffer from tremor, palpitation of nervous
excitement—all of which can be removed aud per
manently cured by the English Remedy, the Cor
dial Balm of Syricum, which has long been in the
old country the favorite remedy, and which,
since its introduction into this country, has dis
tanced all other medicines having tli same ob
ject in view.

Dn. G. E. Lothbop: Dear Sir—l beg to inform
you that I have been troubled with Nervous
Debility for the past twelve years, aud have been
unable to obtain any relief until I purchased a
package of the Cordial Balm of Syricum at Mr.
Duucan s drug store, corner of Leverett and
Green streets. The benefit derived from the use
of one package so far exceeded my expectations
that 1 address you this for publication, that
other suffers may avail themselves of the oppor
tunity to be cured. Yours truly,

Da. G. E. LOTHBOP: Dear Sir—l have used up
all the Cordial Balm of Syricum and Tonic Pills
that you let me have when you first undertook
my cure, and lam glad to be able to inform you
that, thus far. I have derived greater benefit
from it than from any ather medicine I have ever
taken in my life. I sleep better, and daily go
about my work without hesitation or fear. My
nerves are getting steadier every day. and if I
continue to improve as fast as 1 have done for the
last few months since 1 hsve been taking your
medicine, I have no doubt but that I shall soon
again be a veil man. With many thanks for the
good you have done me, I enclose $25 for which
please send ine as before, five more bottles of the
Syricum and Pills, as I intend to keep up the use
of them until fully cured, as I believe I shall be.
Very truly your*.
