"We could never see why the old fashioned Penn sylvania barrack is not a cheap and useful thing, here to preserve grain. It can be built very cheaply, certainly would save the grain, and could even be shifted from Held to Held at little expense if hauling is so tedious.

They have been a long time coming and ought to be good. Mr. Ilendrick's is decidedly the ablest doc ument. Tilden's is too long and too frothy.

( We have been asked a number of times about our county conventions, xc. For general information, there fore, we publish this article. At a meeting oi the Republican Cen tral Committee, held in April, two con ventions were called, one to meet at Louisville, (which has met and is done with) and on 3 to meet at Platts moutli, September 12th, to nominate delegates to the State Convention, Sep tember 26th, at Lincoln. At the same time the chairman of the Committee was asked to call the committee together on the morning of the 12th, before the convention meets. It was understood that unless the county delegates themselves opposed it, another convention should be called at Weeping Water still latter, to nomi nate a county ticket. Cass and Saunders county form tho 30th Representative District, and nom inate a State Representative for that District. Said convention will be fix ed ly the chairmen of the Central Committees f these counties and will not be held until after the State Con vention, in all probability, but due no tice will bo given. Cass, Otoo, Nemaha and Lancaster also form tho 2d Judicial District of tho State. There is a Central Commit tee now in power in this district, of which Hathaway of Lancaster is chair man, and J. W. Johnson of Cass, is a member. That convention will proba bly be called at the time the State con vention sets, September 2Gth. The present "call"' for tho conven tion on the 12th of "September, also says to elect delegates to the Represen tative district. It is claimed this was meant for the Judicial District, and not the representative district. The Hkhald printed the call as fur nished by the Secretary., and does not pretend to decide that question. The Committee or the-convention of the 12th, may act at tl eir plr.tsure on that. Nifv please trv ami kee the run of Uos.

Ckvti.fmf): : When I h:nl the honor to re ceive the iierio'.al delivery of your letter on be half of the Democratic S';itiun;il Convention. IlcM on the L'Hih of June. :il St. Louis :ul visiiijr me of mv Iiuiiiii'ii'tion :is the cjimlnl.ite of the constilur-ucv ivircseiiteil hv th:it hody. Tor the ottii e ot I'lci-i-leiit of the I nited Stales, 1 ;m- wered that at mv eailici-t convenience, and Ml coiifornet v with the cslat ii-heil usaL'o. I woiud prepare and traiiMi'.it t'i you ;i formal accep tance. I now avail mvxelf of the firr-t interval i:i ;in:i-voidald'.- ix eupatioi:. to fulfil that entrapeliieiit The cony if. on lief ore inaUini; in l:oiiina tions. adopted a decl.ir itiou of principles which, as a v, .11 le, veins tottr Ja wi-e exposition of t :e i.eee-.it:e of our count i y, and 01 the reforms needed to lriau Ita'-K the govern inenl to il s iruo function?, to ie- tore the purity of t he adminis tration, and to renew the piopei it y of the peo pie. lint some of the-e reform are so urgent that thev claim more than a pa--;;;a approval. Tile necessity of a reform in the seaic of public expense, federal, stale "! municipal, and in the modi-of federal taxation, ju-tilies ail the prominence friveii to it in the declaration of the St. Louis convention. The present depression in ail the industries and bu-iiie.-M of the people which is depriving labor of its employment. and carrying want into so many homes, has it- prin cipal cause in the execs-ive overnnicnfr.l con sumption consumption under the illusion that auspiecus prosperity is engendered by the false policies of the federal government. A waste of capital been jroinK on ever since the peace of'ifOa, which call only end in ii' iver-al disas ter. The niarcrin of possible national savings is at best a small per celitase of the national earn ings, yet now for these eleven years the govern mental consumption has been" a larger portion of the national earnings than the whole people can po-sib!y save, even in prosperous times lor all investments. The consequence of these er rors are now a present public calamity, but they were never doubtful, never invisible. They w ere necessary and inevitable, and were fore seen mid depicted when the waves of flint ficti tious prosperity iiiii hi;h. In a speech made by me on the 24th of Sept. lsiis. it was said of these taxes, "They bear heavilv upon every man's income, upon every industry and every business in the country, and year by year they are destined to press still more heavily, unless w"e arrest the system that gives rise to" them." It was comparatively p:isv. when values were doubling under repented issues of legal tender paper money to ray mt f the froth of our firowinsr and apparent wealth, these taxes, but when the values are received and sink towards their natural scale, the tax gathered fakes from us not only our income, not only our profits, but also a portion of our capital. 1 do not w ish to exasperate or alarm. I simply say that we can not iifTord a costly and ruinous policy of a radi cal majority of eontires. We cannot afford that policy towards the south ; we cannot afford mag nificent and oppressive centralism into which our piveniiueiil is lie in;; converted ; we cannot afford the present magnificent scale of taxation. To the secretary of tlie treasury, 1 said, early in is.;, "there is no royal road ior :x government more than for an individual or corporation; what yon w ant to do is to cut down your expen ses and live within your income. 1 would give all ledi;crdcmain of finance and tinancieririK. I would tfiv the whole of if for the old homely maxim. "Live within your income." This reform will be resisted in every step, but it must be pressed peisistently. We" see to-day immediate representatives of the people in one branch of emigres-, w hile struglini; lo reduce expenditures compelled to confront the menace of senate and ext'rulite, and that unless the objectionable appropriations are consented to the operat ions ot the government thereunder .shall sutler del riiuent or cease. In my judgment ii amendment to the constitution ought to be ilcvivd. separa!iii2 into distinct bills, the appro priations forthe various departments of puollc service, and excludi'ig from each bill all appro priations for other objects, and all indeiicnueut legislation. In that wav alone can every pow er of each of the two houses, anil of the execu tive, be preserved and exempted from miral duress, which often compels an ss,-ut to objec tionable appropriations, ratt.er than stop "the wheels of toe government. An accessory cause of enhancing distress is to be found in lue sys tem. itie.and iusu portable misgi eminent impos ed on t he states ot the.-ouih, besides the ordi nary effect of im i:u ;a::t and dishonest admin istration. Keform is necessary, declares the St. Louis con cut ion, to establish a sound currency, re store public credit and maintain the naiional honor, and it goes on to demand a judicious sys tem of preparation by public economy, by offi cial retrenchment ami by v. ise linanee, which shall enable the nation soon to assure the whole world of its perfect readine-s to meet any of its promises at the call of its creditors enti"Ued to payment. Tlie object demanded by thecouveu tion is a resi.Hiipt ion of specie payment of the le gal tender notes of t he ('n i ted Mates, that would not only restore the public credit and maintain the national honor, but it would establish a sound currency for the people, the met hods by which this object is to be pursued, and thi nieans by which it is to l e attained are uis. dos ed by what tlie convention demanded forthe fu tu re and by what it denounced in t tic past. The resumption of sne-ie navmits bv the L-ovcrn- mentofthe I nited Slates on its legal fender notes, would establish .specie payments by all the banks on all their notes. The official statement inufle on the I2t!i of May shows that the amount of bank notes was S 3hi.0'Ki.n"'i, le-s sVji'.n.Hi.iioii held by theiuselvi s. Airainst the S2-siV.4n.iMn of notes, the banks held ."fl41.iKxi.0iKi legal tender notes, or a little more than "; per cent, of their amount, but thev also held on deposit in the federal treasury, as a se euiity for these notes, bonds of the I'nited Stati-s. worth in gold about f.fcUi.ono.O'i'i, available and current in all foreign money markets. In resuming, the banks, even if it v.'ere possible for all their notes to 'b presented for payment, would have sVKi.ihin.noi million of specie" funds to pay .iso.inii k) of notes, without contracting their loans to their ctistoim.rs or calling on any private debtor for payment. Suspended banks undertaking to resume have usual y been ob.ig cd to collect from needy horro.t eis'means to re deem excessive issin-s, and to provide reserves. A vague idea of distress is therefore often assailed witn the process of resumption, but the conditions which caused the distress in these former instances do not now exist, 'i hegovern mciit has only to make good its own promises, and banks can take care of t hem-elves without distressing any nod .v. The tlovernment is theie fore the sole deliinjucnt. The amount of legal tender notes of the Lnited Slates now outstand standingis h-s than i7(.n-1o.O(io besidesif..noo. eoo of fractional currency. How shall tho gov ernment marie these i-oles at all times as good as specie. The act of congress of Jan., 1 '.". enacted that on and after the st of January, is;:), the Secre tary of the Treasury shall redJc.ui in coin legal tender notes of the United Stales on preenta tion at the office of tlie Assistant Treasurer, in the city of New York. It authorizes the Secre tary to jirepare and provide for the resumption of specie payment by the rise of anv surplus revenues not otherwise appropriated, and by is suing in liis discretion certain" classes of bonds. Morethan one and a haif the of four years have passed, and coniriess and The president have continued ever since to unit in acts which have legislated out of existence every possible sur plus" applicable to this purpose. " 1 he coin in the treasury ciaimc-i lo rcioug lo the government, had. on the .loth of June fallen to less than $. ono .i00 against 3..!.oon.noo on the 1st of January, s7... and the availability of a part of that sum is said to lie questionable. The revenues are falling faster than appropri ations and expen liturs are reduced, leaving ihe treasury w ith diminishing resources. The .Sec retary has done not hing under his power to i-sue bonds. The legislative command . thi-offi-cial promise, anil fixing a dav for rcsumpt ion have been made. There has tiovii no ix-uerc. There have leeu stepM back warxi. There s m necromancy in the operaiiovts of the govern ment. The hometv raatiui of every day life are the best standards of its.coduct. A debtor who should promie to pay a loan out of surples income, yet be seen every day (pending all he coirfd lay his hands on in riotous living, would lose all character for honesty and veracil v. His offer of a new promise or hi- profession as to f he value of the old promise would alike provoke du ribiou. Kdiicato! in the belief flint it Js the first duty of a citizen to fake his fair allotment of care and trouble in public affairs, I have for forty years" as a private iti ea.iulfd -ed that duly. Though occupied i . i an uimu il degree during all thai period with the concerns of the government, l have never acipiired the limbit of oflicial life.

It is made of the best seleeted INDI ANA TIM15EK, the same being cut at the proper season of the year, piled under sheds, properly dated, and al lowed to remain there from 3 to 5 years. SECOND. The wood-work, thoroughly seasoned, is shaped by the latest improved machinery, and put together by the 1SF.ST WACOX MECHANICS IN THE WORLD. THIRD. It is the best ironed and painted wag on in the market. FOURTH. The thimble-skeins are made of select iron, and weigh from 4 to 25 pounds per set more than any others made and therefore do not break. FIFTH. The Skeins are set by patent Skein-setters, thereby making a perfect running wagon. SIA'TH. It is the only wagon in which tlie SEori:-snorLDEit sroKK m used, hence they have the best wheel which is actually the foundation of the wagon and should be carefully examined ii:i:hoxh pi i: jiaki;.
