To Iis Exeellency, J. 1L Beveridae, State of Itinaia ¢ CuicAao, March 13,—During the past eight months I bavo addressed you by opon letter twies, to which no anewor has boen vouchsafed. My firat callod your attontion to tho offorts of tho tomish Oharoh to doprive tho citizonu of ofir Stato of tighta guarantced thom by tha Constltution add laws of tho Btate. Ialso called your attention fo tho scts of thosamo Church in othor States, and called upon you to stop this sesumption of authority by a forsign power. In my socond I again called your at tention to thin groat and grofving ovil, citing othor facts which had becoms kuown in our conntry, snd nlso in Canadn, and saked your T otforonco. # To noithor ' aof thase iavo you ropliod, and, learning through the jrublio” press that yon oro a candidato for tho nomination for Governor st tho hands of tho Topnblican party, 1 again addrees you, with the Tiopo that you will answor $ho quentions I will aek, and glve your rousons why you nre ontitled to such houor. 1.

Waa your appointment of Harper ns Graln Inspector at tho instaoco of partics moat in- torested in the grain, or at the iustanco of poli- ticians whoao intlucnce you mished Lo hold 2 G. 11ave you over collected tho monoy \rhich enfdl ITarpor collectod for tho Btate ?

Havo you caused your Btato's-Attornoy to prosecuto tho elevator company for ita over- isano of warohouse rocoipts ? 8. Havosyon ovor taken stops to stop tho on- croaclumonts of tho foreign power on the righta of {ts citizona? I romember two instancos whers you ap- peared to support and maintain tho dignity of tho State; thoe first was tho stopplog of a prize- fight botwoon citizens of Bt. Louis, Mo., In 1878, and the socond was the attempt to provent two ather oitizoos of - Missonri from fighting a ducl. In ueithor caso wad tho law exccuted sad tho criminals punishod.

This was, if true, ab outrago on eovery citizon of tho Stato suthorizing tun agent, as woll as an ontrago to every citizon of our owu. 1t is stated that you wero o brave and morito- rious ofticer {n the Jate war, and you are entitlod to roward. Tt strikes mo that the holding of tha Bhoriffalty of Cook County and the Govornor- ship of tho Stata ia a protty fair roward for the sorvices yon rondored, sad it is s truth that thore are mon who served as woll as you did in that war, and aro 8 woll entitled to romunera- tion, who hinvo nevor rocoived any such reward. 1f the reporta in the papors are truo, that yon liavo recoutly boen proving to tho Gormau publicana that yon are not opposed to drinking wine or Lieor, you aro ontitled to the roward of morited contorpt, and I beliovo you will roceive it from tho hands of all right-thioking non, Gorman or to the manor boro, I havo not been favored with youor circolar; regrot that time had not pormitted your calling upon mo, ote, It might havo opabled mo to contradict Rastor, who says, **Tho ground you atand on i ‘mado Emnnd.' full of “old boots, oyster-cans, and such lke matorial, avd, as time scoms to ducay them, tho ground, instend of proving solid, becomos a quagmiro,” the *'{znis faliua" of wlich are tho pardons of criminals of tho worst stamp lighting up, crimos of omis- sion sa well as of commission in publle acts.
