A mass-meoting to considor the traneportation question is to bo held in New York in Boptem- bor, undor tho auspicos of tha Amorican (_:lwlp Traunsportation Association. Great Britain doolines to mako any arrange- ment for the admission of postal cards from this country at s spocial rato liko that ‘betwaen Connda and the United Btates.

In his congratula- tory roferenco to the approaching departure of the Germans, hio paya Prosident Thiors amorited tribute for tho succoss of his nogotiationa for tho evacuation of Fronch territory. Tho Ropublicans of Burcau County held & Convention at Princoton yosterday, to nominate county officers, Thoir rosolutions pledge an un- iminished support to tho Republican party. Tho eslary-stonl is disclaimed as o Ro- publican monsure, &nd all participants fu it aro threatoned with expulsion from political Iife. MTariffs, the resolutions furthor eay, should bo for revenue only, and iron, salt, and lurbor | should be placed on tho frae list. — Tho Btato Grango of Wisconsin ropudiates tho action of tho farmers of Dodgo County in calling o State Conventlon to meet at Milwau- keo, Aug. 21. Formal warning has been sorved on all the Grangers to iake no part in the move- ment, as it is *unanthorized,” ond violates a cardinal principle of the Granges not to mix in sthe turmoil of political strife.” This coun- torblast from the Stato Gravgo is oxcitod by tho declaration of the Dodge County Grangors, that the farmers, in bocoming Patrons of Husbandry, had not ceased to bo citizons, and that, a8 neither tho Ropublican nor Demo- cratic party is willing or ablo to suppross the ypreveiling ruinous political corruption, and the tariff, bowk, railroad, telegraph, snd other monopolies of tho dey, the ‘farmers must take caro of themselves by providing & now political organization. Tho Convontion called for the 2lst prox. was for ‘‘consultetion, and such other action a8 may boe deomed best." — The incronsed nllowance of $125,000 & yoar which tho British Governmont wishes to give tho Duke of Edinburgh to set him up in bis houselceping - oxperiment with the Graud Duchess Alexandrovns 0f Russis, bas been voted unanimously by the Houso of Lords. Promior Gludstonodid not succeed 8o well with the Houso of Commons. He prefsced the motion for tho allowance -with a politic speech, in which he ealled sttention to tho opportune good feoling botweon England and Russia which might bo oxpocted to flow from thus alli- nuco, and doprecated any debato which might make the granting of the allowauce, which bio aseumed would bo given as & mat- tor of courss, seem ungraciously done, Membors wore found strong-minded onouglh, however, to decluro their opposition to the motion, and its fato ia still in aboyanco. Tho Tepublicans of Bristol have issued a pronuncie- monto agninst granting the Duke any such unropublican ailowanco. The Chicago produce markets wero rather more active yesterday. Ifoss pork was quiot and 100 per brl highor, at $15,40@16.50 casl, and §16.20@15.90 seller Soptombor, Lard was quiet and steady st $7.87(@7.90 per 100 lbs for winter, aud $7.60 for swmmor rendered.

Bhoop ruled squiot and stondy, ‘Whon tho Ttoy, Mr. Reod, of Bpringfleld, TIl., published s roply to Lamon’s Lifo of Lincoln, o did o very Injudiclous act—for whother his views of Mr, Lincolu's logitimate birth, and of bia religious boliof, were true or othorwise, his article in Scribner's Monthly was certain to pro- yoko s reloinder. Mr, Lamou havine boon with difficulty porsunded to striko ont some fifty pagos of the opening chaptor of his book, no intelligont friend of Mr. Lincoln would hnve shakon a rod rag ot him as the Tov. Mr. Roed did. Tho rojoindor has como In tho form of s four-column nrticlo in the Now York World, eigned “0. I\ B.” 0. F.

It does not produco documontary ovidonco to show that Mr. Lincoln wag not tho son of his fathor, but aflirms it with the utmost confldenco, and statos that such ovidenco fa in oxistonco snd can bo produced. It is ovidont that O, T B. hnd o hond in tho proparation of Lismon's Lifo of Lincoln, ond that his portion of it I the lenst valuablo of tho whole, though porhapa the bost in point of grammatioal construction. Tho attentivo reader of the book will not fail to discorn throo hands ‘at work upon it. o will disoorn oleo that O, F. B.'a was tho ona which roprosonts Mr, Lincoln to have beon o cold, selfsh, crafty politician, with- out any doop-soated convictions—a libel on his momory altogother more roprohoensible, in our viow, than any real or supposed blot on tho gcutoheon of Nancy Hanks, Thoy have & queor way of doing business in Louisiana, One of the customs is, that the Gov- ernor can koop any aot of tho Logislature in his pocket from yoar to yoar and oan make it & law whonever Lo ploases. A Governor oqual to tho oceasioncan make ahandsome thing by rofus- ing to sign & bill until satisfled that ho ought to do g0, Tho Iatost case has just happoned : Tho Now Orleans Gaslight Company was organized about 1830, 1In 1860, before the War, its charter was oxtonded to 1890, in consideration of it ro- linquishing its provious absolute monopoly and scoopting cortain catablished rates. In 1870, having oxhausted nearly every imsaginsble form of legislative plunder, tho ocarpet-bag Log- islature created = gas monopoly of their own. Tho Spesker of the Houso took §60,000 of stock; tho OChairman of the Committeo on Corporations $300,000; Gov. Warmoth, who had to sign tho bill, got 300,000, snd large amounts wore promised to various other porsons. Warmoth signed the bill, and the Croscent Oity Gaslight Company, with & monopoly of fitty yoars, was ecstablished. But tho old Company rofused to give up. Tho Logislature tried to abolish the old Company. The Attornoy-General, who held §50,000 stock in the new Company, brought suit against tho old Company, and Judge Dibblo decided in favor of the new one. The Buprome Court roversed this declsion, The now Company then sought to soll out to the old ono, and failed. So, at tho last sosslon, the Kollogg Logislaturo passed an act ropesling the chartor of the old Company after 1676, This bill Kellogg Las boon kéoping unsigned over sinco. By refusing to sign it, ho could kil it, But it would nppoar that the old Company has taken no measures to have tho bill votoed, and Kollogg signed the bill a fow days ago. All that is neoded nowis to havo Judgo Durell issue an injunction re- straining the Buprome Conrt of Louisiana from doclaring this act null and void, and issuo an or- dorto tho Marshal to employ United Statos troopa tosoizo the gas-works of the old, Compa- ny and doliver them over to the new Company. Buch an ordor would bo ag rational and logal as the ona he issucd laat wintor for the seizuro of the Btate-Houso, and which Las beon sustained by tho Prosident on the ground that ho must “ guatain the docisions of tho judiciary.” Tho Toxas Border, or Moxican Raid, Com- mission have concluded thoir tolls on the Rio Grande, and have propered a socond- roport showing that claims aro hold by the ranchomen of o fow counties of Texas against the Republic of Moxico for stolen cattle to tho amount of $48,000,000—which fa $11,000,000 moro than the valuo of all the live stoclk in tho State of Texas by the last consus, including horsos, sheep, and swino. This, however, ombraces tho cattlo that the ranchomen would have had if nono had been Btolou. Tho aotual and direct lossos foot up somo &15,000,000. From tho Now Orloans Picayune ot July 18 we learn that tho avorago valno of Toxas cattlo on the ranche, count- ing yearlings but oxcluding oalves, is $6 per head. The real and imaginary losscs, therefore, amount to 8,000,000 head of cattle, while the actual lossos foot up 2,500,000 head. Some faint ides of the industry of thoso Moxican cattlo-thieves may be derived by com- paring thoir operations with thoso of the Union Btook-Yards of this city, 'The wholo number of liorned cattle recoived at these Yords during tho goveon years they hiad been in operation up to tho, 18t of March, 1873, was 8,203,000 hesd. To ronch thosa Yards, tho cattle had the advantage of eoven trunk lines of rail- way, whilo tho Mexican cattle-stoalors, according to the report of the Commission, wero obliged to carry on their operations across a caotus desert 100 miles in width. Tho report Tails to inform us that Mexico Is better supplied with boef, hides, tallow, hoofs, horny, and hair than the other BSpanish-American Republics, though this would bo the irresistible inference from such an onormous importation. The re- port also omits to state the valuo of tho ‘ontire property of the raided district—cattlo, lands, ranches, horses, mules, cats, and dogs. Somo information upon this point was furnished last yoar by Mr. . R. Enooh, of Rockford, Tilinois, who visited that country in the sorvico of tho Trossury Dopartment. Mr. Enoch de- scribos it as squalid, wretohed, povorty-stricken, destitute of water, and wholly unsuited to the raising of cattle. According to the consus of 1870, the total amount of proporty, including the valuo of farm lands, in tho three countios most exposod to thoso raids, lying between Point Tsa- bel and Rio Graude City, was 844,333, aud the populution 17,640, THE OHIO BENATORSHIP, The Cinclnuati Gazelle 15 opposing the clec- tion of tho present Becretary of the Interior, Mr, Delano, to the United Biatos Sonato from Ohio, and exposes what it calls a schemo on his part to pack the Republican nominations for tho Loglalaturo in his own favor, The Gazelto de- claros that thoro aro in the Btato ' thousands of Ropublicans who will take crro to dofeat any such tickot.” Tt i rather Inte in tho day to do- claim sgainet interference from Wanhington in tho olection of United States Benators, or indeod in any olaction In which an Administration havo a porsonal intorest. Last winter, whon overything was somewhat chaotic in Loulslans, aund the country, somowhat disgusted, was dlsposed to loave tho flunl arbitrament of tho mattor to tho courts of Loulslana, Mr. Casoy, of Now Orloans, booame willing, it not nnx- ious, to exchange tho Colloctorship for a seat in the Sonate, but to do this roquired that a Y.ogls- laturo ‘should be provided, Tho Gazelte is fa- miliar with what followed, and, if we recolleot rightly, it did not austaln tho Adminiatration vory Loartily. Why may not tho samo prooceding tako placo in Ohlo? What is thoro iu the Govornmont of tho Stato of Ohlo that should protoct hor from aun intorforonco and an usurpation, Judicial and milltary, such ns took place in Loulsinna? It i truo that Gov. Noyes s & difforont kind of men from Xollogg, nnd The would not prounbly accopt the Governor- ghip it thrust upon Dhim, ogainst the popular will, by Fodoral bayonots, Dochnps “thore ia no Judgo in Olio who would venturo to imitato Duroll ; but then it was not supposed thoro was ono in Touisiana until tho occasion produced him. Now, suppose, whon tho oloo- tion fs over, it is found that tho Logislaturo cleoted by tho people is anti-Dolano, and, if pormitted to moot and organize, would clock somo othor porson to tho Bonate, Bupposo tho Board of Education in the City of Columbus doclare that the peoplo of Ohio would havo olected a Dolano Loglelature if two or throohun- drod thousand people had votoed who did not voto, and thoroupon, without warrant of law, or having in their possossion any election ro- turns, sbould procoed to mako out and publish & list of mombors of the Logislaturo who ought to have boon elected, and declaro them elocted. Buppose when this 1a dono thoy apply to & United Btatos Judgo, and obtain from him a judicisl docreo that thomoen doclarod olected by the Columbus Board of Ed~ ucation constitute the only logal Logislaturo of Ollo; that no person not mamed on that lint ghall bo pormitted to sot as a membor of the Logislaturo; that tho Marshal shall employ Na- tional troopa to soizo the Btate-Houso and Btato offices. And supposo the Leglslaturo thus croatod shall thon moot, undor tho protoction of Tedoral bayonots, and elect Columbus Delano to tho United Btates Bonato, what s tho Gaztle going to do sbout it? What will the poople of Ohio do about it? It will not answer to eny that such procoedings aroso wildly oxtravagant that they can novor take place. Thoy havo actunlly talen placo within ono yoar. The procoedings in Louisinus aro not yot nino months old, and why not enact thom in Ohio o8 woll ns in Loulsiann? When tlio Gazetfe warns tho Secratary of the Interior that thousands of Republicans in Ohio will take cnro that Ropublican candidaten for tho Legisla- wo supposo, thnt Republicans in those diatricts will not voto, but will allow the opposition can- didates to bo oloctod, But the Gazle will ro- ‘mombor that the bogus Legislature in Louisiana waa declared logal on tho ground that, if the poople who did not voto at all Iad voted for tho Kollogg candidates, thoy would havo bad majority. So tho non-voting policy will not avail any Ropublican who wishes to dofeat Do~ lano, — FRAUDULENT BONDS AND ‘‘INNOCENT HOLDERS,” In casos whero a Btate or Municipnl Govern- mont has* hoen mado nominally responsible by the unlawful and fraudulent aots of publio offi- cialg, and whouover it i clear that public bonds havo boon issnod in flagrant violation of tha law, thore s no more obligation upon the Govern- meont to rodeem thoso bogus pledges than there would bo npon an individusl to pay o forged noto issuod by ona of his clorks. As an instance of public duty in such casos, may ba citod o dociston of Judge Dillon, of tho United Btates Cirouit Court in Kansas, rolative to municipal bonds issued in violation of law.- A question nrose in Ossgd County whother taxes should bo levied to mcot tho bonda votod by that county to private manufac- turiag companies, and it was referrod to the At~ torney-Goneral of tho Stato, who decided that # no official should lovy and no person should pay such a tox.” This docision was based upon ono of Sudgo Dillon's, in which ho declared ail municipnl bonds fesued in aid of purely private entorprises to be nulland void. The Attorney- Goneral of tho State added that, in this decls- ion, “Judge Dillon morely gave voicoto tho unan- imous judgment of the Bar of this Btate.! In rofusing to rodeom this class of bonds, tho mu- nicipal governmonts of Kaneag cannot bo charged with repudiation. Of tho same class with tho municipal bonds deacribed nbove aro many of the Stato bonds isauod by tho carpot-bag Governmonts of South- ern States, It is anupouncod that tho Stato frensuror of Bouth Carolina has propared s statement showing what proportion of tho Btate bonds ara bogus, and it is predicted that the Btate will rofuse to pay them. Thoroupon the Philadolphia Press says: * Vory likely these woro fraudulently issued, but if repudiated at this timo tho Joss will certainly fall on innocent parties.” If there {s no doubt that the bonds woro fraudnlently issued, thon it is not casy to geo how tho circumstauco that a portion of them ‘may be hold by innocont partiea makos it itioum- bont on the State to pny obligations which it novor assumed. Tho * fnnocent partics,” if thero bo any in this case, have thoir romedy againdt tho gullty partios who swindled them, Butthe State, bolng an innocent party itsolf in case tho ‘bonds wero fraudulontly iesued, cannot reason- ably bo expected to shoulder the sins aud make good the thefts of common swindlors, because the crimo Linppons to have been committed in its namo. If tho Btato goos into this kind of busi- noss, it will honcoforth bo principally engaged in robbing, its own pooplo to pay “innocent pat: ties” the money out of which they may beo swindled, Tho fast s, howevor, that carpet-bag State bonds of the clasa do- goribed soldom flnd thoir way into the bands of iunocont parties, It is not ronsonablo to suppose that many men have In- vestod thoir monoy legitimately in this clnss of gecuritios, The money was advanced ‘pon theso fraudulont honds, it is well known, by » oortnin eliquo of spocnlating bankers, who went into tho gne with tholr eyes open, and took & largo risk with tho prospect of & large profit, ‘Phey shavad thoso bunds onormously with good roason to supposo that thoy wore fraudulent. Rven if thoy were not acquainted with the dotalls of the fraud, which is unlikely, there was prime Jacieovidonco of fraud in tho auxiety of ocarpot- baggers to dlspose of thelr bonds at any price, Indeod, thero is some reason to think that the original purchascrs of these socuritios bought them in the beliof that thoir party in- fluenco would somo day induca Congross to give & Nntional gusrantoe for their payment. A movement of this kind, it will be romombored, was aotually developod in tho last Congross. I'io aame rule that applies to bogna Stato and munteipal securitios nlso applios to fraudulont Douds and stocks of overy doseription, and en- peelally to what is known as waterod stocks. The Natlon claims that tho wiping out of (horo flotitlous and fraudulont iseucs of slock would also throw tho burdon of loss upon innocout parties, aud talks foolingly of widows and orphaus, Wo decling to .bo moved ] { ture favorablo to Dolano are dofosted, it means, | by sutch appoals. Tho bulk of watored atocks in in tho hands of the Vandorbilts, Goulds, Tom Sootts, and othor .spooulators.

It lesuo was in most casos unlawful in tho' beginning, andit was tho duty of purchasors to inform thomaolyos of this fact, it they did not alrondy know it. Every guardian, trusteo, or ngent who has invosted the monoy of a widow or or- phan in fictitious stocks or honds of any kind hoa boon gailty of abroach of trust, for it was his duty to'ascortaln tho natura of the sconritics which ho was buying. It is sheor sophistry to maintaln that a palpable fraud should bo sus- tained beoauso a fow innocent porgons have por- ‘mitted thomsolves to bo swindled or noglocted to investigato tho. charactor of tho scouritios whioh they were buylng. Tho fact that no monument marks tho birth- placo of Washington is now sttracting somo at- toution, Xt sooms that tho Virginia Logislaturo onco appropriated 85,000 for inclosing it with' & noat iron fenco, aftor a descendant of tho Wash- ington family liad deeded the ground to tho Btate. This was under Gov. Wise's adminiatra- tion, but Wiso's torm oxpirod and the War camo on boforo anything had been accomplished, and tho birth-placo remaine aa it was. As all roads now load to the Contonnial in Philadelphis, ono of the local journals suggosts that this condition of Washington's birth-place is a Na- tional disgraco, and that Congress ought to mako an appropriation for & monument beforo tho celobration of 1876, This g all very patri- otio, and might excito oven groater enthusiasm than it is likely to oxeite if an English fcono~ clast had not stepped in with tho assortion that ‘Washington wasn’t born in this country at™ all Porhinpa thoro is & notion that o monument on American torritory would settle the dispute in our favor.

Ho had overy falth in the ultimato success of the movo- ment looking to the supprossion of vico and crime, and bellaved that it only ncedod talk and work to bring out tho temperanco portion of tho population and bo victorious at the polls the coming fall, Ho fimu introduced tho BEV, MI. LATITROP, a sturdy old man, who looked upon alcohol as tho root of sll ovil, Ho said the question to bo decided by tho oloctions in the fall was whothor the laws which had beon placed on the statute- books by the roprescutatives of the peoplo should be mfi!oomd and oboyed, or trented with contempt. Ho was of tho op(nfun that tho law- abiding and Christian poople of tho city wonld voto golidly in favor of the obsorvance of the Bunday and other lawa for tho regulation of the liquor trafle, Thoso pooplo had work beforo thom, and succoss could only bo galned by coasoloss nlg‘hnllen in the good caudo.

Ho nlgo racited an af- feoting story about & little girl dylng in & wrotched gatrot, to_show that slcohol dostroys nataral affection. Hor last worda wore: ‘Do not lot father touch my body whon I am dead.” Her father was & drunkard. = Mr. Franklin closed by advocating the union of Christians of overy elinde of beliof in the movement for temporance and tho presarvation of the Babbath, and made way for tho P MON.

Ho did not think that any man who would kesp open & saloon on Bun- day for bacchanalinn purposes was & Christian, and no man could mako him think so, Ho alluded to tho time ‘whon a certain popular movement foll upon o man nomed Hesing and buried him complotoly out of sight, and was of the opinion that tho &npulnr movement now progressing in the in- rost of temperance and good government would fall upon tho same individual again and bury him 8o deop that he could nover bo resur~ rectod.

He belloved that it was time to talk ptainly. The rum-sollor spoke out what he thought, and tho tomporance man should do the samo. important election was drawing nigh, and o mighty effort would bo mado to wrest the Gov- ernment of the city out of the hands of the lnw and order men who now control it. If it suc- coeds, o tido of vico and orime would follow, Tho inatitutions reared and respected by Chris- tian pooplo would be swept sway, and the Sab- bath would be turned into a day of revelry and licontiousnoss, ~ There shonld bo an immediate organization of those who hope and pray that these bad things may nover come £o paus, an thoy could only bo brought out in their sfrongth their success was assured.
