BUTLER MISSOURI. - WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER, 26, 1855 The presidential electors of Mis- _ gouri will meet at Jefferson City January 24, and cast their ballots | fer Grover Cleyeland for president. Cleveland’s popular majority amounts to about 98,000, and yet | there are republicans who have the _ cheek to assert that the results of the recent election demonstrate con- clusively that the people do not want tariff reform. EE fhe tax burdened farmers and ' citizens of St. Clair county will make = one more attempt onthe 29th inst. to compromise their bonded indebt- edness, which has reached an enor- - moussum. The Advance has tl is to say by way of advice to its read- ers: ;‘The proposition as stated in the order of the county court is to tuke up theold bonds at fifty cents on the dollar and pay the judgments at sixty-five cents by the issuance of new bonds bearing five per cent. in- terest. Tocompromise is to reduce _ the debt 40 per cent. and the inter est 50 per cent. To refuse is only to paya higher rate onthe entire debt in the future. Compromise. ” While the Times is run in the in- terest of Bates county and uses ev- ery endeavor to promote its interests and let its resources be known io _ the world, the management expect to make a protit sufficient to remu nerate them for their labors. If any man has the idea that he is doing us a favor by taking the Times and not paying for it, he is mistaken. This thing of working for glory is all very well, but it doesn’t pay the grocer’s bill. We must have a little cash along in connection with the glory | just to grease the machinery. We are not begging we simply want what is due us. This 1s the first of the year and an excellent time to atraighten up old counts and start fresh with the New Year. We trust | our friends will do this, it is simply a@ matter of dollars and cents with us. Weare needing this, and like the fellow with the pistol in Texas, e need it bad. There has been considerable spec- lation as to the manner of life esident Cleveland will assume af- ter his retirement from office. There always a good deal of popular concern about the future career and conduct of a retiring President. Few men who occupy that exalted fice care to relapse into insignifi- nee and, like ex-President Hayes, ise chickens, attend county fairs live frugally their savings. An z-President of the United States is dged about by a dignity which es it difficult for him to enter ‘upon the active pursuit of business or re-enter the professional calling he followed many years before. Few of the American presidents Aave survived their retirement long ‘enough to make the problem so seri- us as it threatens to be in the case Grover Cleveland. General Grant a military hero as well as an ex- ident, and his tour around the orld was a sort of modern triumph- progress. Yet he had sufficient le time and enough ambition left make him the victim of sharpers. - Cleveland is too young and too active a man to fall easily intoa state f “innocuous desuetude.” He has obably sufficient means to enable m to live comfortably and quietly, ‘but will probably not be satisfied with a humdrum life. It was pro- posedat one time to provid ex-President should te a a life senator, and on many aecounts is to be regretted that some such Ovision has not been made for re ing chief-magistrates. It may be ly assumed, however, that Grov. Cleveland will be a useful mem- ber of society whatever hi do kK. sf Sten e may elect | ELECTION INVESTIGATION POSED. The Methods in New York, Indiana, Louisiana and Rhode Island to be Examined. | son offered a resolution in the sen- | ate to-day, which was laid on the ta- | ble and ordered printed, for the ap- | pointment of a select committee of | thirteen senators to inquire into the | state of suffrage throughout the | United States especially to inyesti- | gate the election of state officers at the state elections held in November last in Rhode Isiand and Leuisiana states of New York and Indiana, and to report all facts showing whether any improper, undue and unlawful influences and practices | ployed through conspiracies, trades, were @ii use of money, purchase of voters, false voting, stufling ballot boxes, bribery, oz in any way whatever and to what extent, and to make such recommendations as it may deem a1ecessé ability in Churches. An English clergyman recently visiting this country remarked that “the American church seems to be very much of a vestibule of society.” It is precisely this intimate connec- tion between religious observances and social life that affords the key to the principal embarrassment in find- ing as nctory answer to the ques- tion: “Why don’t the people attend the churches?” Disagreeable as is the truth, the pastors of the fash- ionable city churches generally ad- mit it, and say that society and so- ciety matters have altogether too much influence within church or- ganizations and they wish it was otherwise, but are powerless to do much to remedy the matter. Said a well known clergyman of this city the other day: “The ostentation of many women had the good fortune to marry rich husbands or whose husbands E: who have ave beeu lucky and have become rich has very much to do with the thing. They indulge in display— often senseless and, in- deed, offensive display—and what with their dress and demeanor com- bined it is enough to abash and keep away women whe cannot live as they do, and who have not so much of a husband’s money to expend as they have. Want of good taste and want of judgment alike have much to do in creating a repellant atmos- phere which keeps thousands away from the churches.—Philadelphia Press. A Burial in Georgia. That is a curious story which Mr. Henry W. Grady, of the Atlantic Constitution has told about the burial of aman in Georgia, “The other day there was a man buried in Pickens county. He was dead and they were putting him away. In digging a grave for him they dug through three feet oi marble pure as any Parian Sculptor ever mould- ed, and yet the marble slab that went at the head of his grave was imported from Vermont. Although pine forests were all around him, the pine coffin in which he lay was imported from Philadelphia. Al- though iron was in the hills, within a hundred feet of his grave, the nails in his coffin came from Pittsburg. Although there was hard-wood in the same forest, the handles of the shovels and pick that dug his grave were imported, from Cincinnati. The truth is that his own state, richer in natural resources than any in the country, furnished nothing for that funeral but the hole in the ground and the corpse. He was clothed in shoes from Massachusetts, a suit from Chicago, a shirt from Cincin- nati, ahat from Lynn, and his own country furnished nothing but the marrow in his bones and the blood in his veins.” Wl Cover Sullivan's Deposit.

Amos Cumming, of New York, was a tramp printer and says he has set type in every state in the union. Senator Plumb was first a printer. then an editor and finally a banker. Gallinger, of New Hampshire, was a printer, but afterward studied med- icine. Farquhar, of New York, is not only a printer, but was once president of the U. S. Typographic- al Union. “Tim” Campbell was a compositor on the New York Herald when he was elected to the New York legislature. O'Donnell, of Michigan learned the printing busi- ness, and has always kept at it. Dingley, of Maine; Foran of Ohio; Nicoll, of North Carolina; Wickman, of Ohio; Hudd, of Wisconsin and Yost, of Virginia, were printers. The word “tacky” originated among the negroes and was in fa- miliar use in North Carolina more than seventy-five years ago. In Tennessee and Kentucky long be- fore the war, it was regarded as a proper and surely as an expressive term. In an old Gallatin, Tenn., newspaper we find the following: “The bridal party had ridden all the way from Carthage, and were marri- ed by’SquireCage. The bridegroom wore buckskin and the bride, in a pretence of finery, surely looked “tacky.” This paragraph brought about serious results. A rival suit- or had caused its publication. A duel was arranged, and the slanderer after being mortally wounded signed the following document: “On my deathbed I hereby de- clare that Mrs. Joyner, formerly Miss Eliza Roper, did not look ‘tacky’ on the day of her wedding.” This action by the governor was | | Foster News, printing chief of the band, was to have been | J.
