INDIANAPOLIS: A INDIANAPOLIS PRINTING AND PDBLIPHiN(; HOUSE, 1874. r^\ Entered a cording tct act of congress, in tlie year 1874 By Cline and Mc Haffie. in the office of the Librarian of Congress, at Washington. IN CONGRESS, TUESDAY, JULY 4, 1776. Agreeably to the order of the day, the Congress resolved itselfinto a committee of the whole, to take into their further consideration the Declaration; and, after some time, the Pres- ident resumed the chair, and Mr, Harrison reported that the committee had agreed to a declaration, which they desired him to report. (The committee consisted of Jefferson, Frank- lin, John Adams, ^' ^riuan, and R. R. Livingston.) The Declaration being read, was agreed to, as follows: A DECLARATION BY THE REPRESENTATIVES OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, IN CONGRESS ASSEMBLED. When, in the course of human events, it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have con- nected them with another, and to assume among the powers of the earth the separate and equal station to which the laws of nature and of nature's God entitle them, a decent respect for the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation. We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. That, to secure these rights, governments are instituted among men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed ; that, whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute a new government, laying its foundation on such principles, {3> DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE. and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes ; and, accordingly, ail experience hatli shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But, when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invari- ably the same object, evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their dutj'", to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these colo- nies, and such is now the necessity which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is a history of repeated injuries and usurpations, all having, in direct object, the establishment of an absolute tyranny over these States. To prove this, let facts be submitted to a candid world : lie has refused his assent to laws the most wholesome and necessary for the public good. lie has forbidden his Governors to pass laws of immediate and pressing importance, unless suspended in their operation till his assent should be obtained ; and, when so suspended, he has uiteily neglected to attend to them. He has refused to pass other laws for the accommodation of large districts of people unless those people would relinquish the right of representation in the legislature — a right inestim- able to them, and formidable to tyrants only. He has called together legislative bodies at places unusual, uncomfortable, and distant from the depository of th sir public records, for the sole purpose of fatiguing them into compliance vi'ith his measures. He has dissolved representative hou es repeatedly for oppos- ing, with manly firmness, his invasions on the rights of the people. He has refused, for a long time after such dissolutions, to cause others to be elected ; whereby the legislative powers, incapable of annihilation, have returned to the people at large for their exercise, the State remaining, in the meantime, ex- DECLARATION OF INDKPENDENCE. posed to all the danger of invasion from without, and convul- sions wiUiin. Ue has endeavored to prevent the population of these States ; for that purpose, obstructing the laws for naturaliza- tion of forei: ner^: ; refusing to pass others to encourage their emigration hither, and raising the conditions of new appro- priations of lands. He has obstructed the administration of justice, by refus- ing his assent to laws for establishing judiciary powers. He has made judges dependent on his will alone for the tenure of their offices and the amount and payment of their salaries. He has erected a multitude of new offices, and sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people, and eat out their sub- stances. He has kept among us, in times of peace, standing armies, without the consent of our legislature. He has affected to render the military independent of, and superior to, the civil power. Ele has comnned, with others, to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his assent to their acts of pretended legislation: For quartering large bodies of armed troops among us; For protecting tham, by mock trial, from punishment, for any murders which they should commit on the inhabitants of these States ; For cutting off our trade with all parts of the world ; For imposing taxes on us without our consent; For depriving us, in many cases, of the benefits of trial by jury. For transporting us beyond seas to be tried for pretended offenses. For abolishing the free system of English laws in a neigh- boring province, establishing therein an arbitary government, and enlarging its boundaries, so as to render it at once an ex- ample and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these coloi)ies ; For taking away our charters, abolishing our most valuable 6 DECIARATION OF INDEPENDENCE. laws, and altering, fundamentally, the powers of our govern- ments ; For suspending our own legislature, and declaring them- selves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whal soever. Ho has abdicated government here, by declaring us out of his protection, and waging war against us. He has plundered our seas, ravaged our coast, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people. He is, at this time, transporting large armies of foreign mer- cenaries to complete the works of death, desolation, and ty- ranny, already begun, with circumstances of cruelty and per- fidy scarcely par;illeled in the most barbarous ages, and totally unworthy the head of a civilized nation. He has constrained our fellow-citizens, taken captive on the high seas, to bear arms against their country, to become the executioners of their friends and brethren, or to fall themselves by (heir hands. lie has excited domestic insurrections amongst us, and has endeavored to bring on the inhabitants of our frontiers, the merciless Indian savages, whose known rule of warfare is an undistinguished destruction, of all ages, sexes, and conditions. In every stage of these oppressions, we have petitioned for redress, in the most humble terms ; our repeated petitions have been answered only by repeated injury. A prince, whose charncler is thus marked by every act which may define a ty- rant, is unfit to be the ruler of a free people. Nor have we been wanting in attention to our British breth- ren. We have warned them, from time to time, of attempts made by their legislature (o extend an unwarrantable jurisdic- tion over us. We have reminded them of the circumstances of our emigralion and settlement here. We have appealed to I heir native justice and magnanimity, and we have conjured them, by (he ties of our common kindred, to disavow the*ie usurpations, which would inevitably interrupt our connections and correspondence. They, too, have been deaf to the voice of justice and consanguinity. We must, therefore, acquiesce in fche necessity, which denounces our separation, and hold DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE. them, as we hold the rest of mankind, enemies in war — in peace, friends. We, therefore, the representatives of the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, in GENERAL CONGRESS assembled, ap- pealing to the Supreme Judge of the World for the rectitude of our intentions, do, in the name, and by the authority of the good people of these colonies, solemnly publish and declare, That these United Colonies are, and of right ought to be. Free and Independent States ; that they are absolved from all allegiance to the British crown, and that all political connec- tions between them and the State of Great Britain, is, and ought to be, totally dissolved; and that, as FREE AND INDEPENDENT STATES, they have full power to levy war, conclude peace, contract alliances, establish commerce, and to do all other acts and things which INDEPENDENT STATES may of right do. And for the support of this Declara- tion, with a firm reliance on the protection of DIVINE PROV- IDENCE, we mutually pledge to each other, our lives, our fortunes, and our sacred honor.

Every bill which shall have passed the House of Represen- tatives and the Senate, shall, before it becomes a law, be pre- sented to the President of the United States : If he approve, he shall sign it; but if not, he shall return it, with his objec- tions, to that House in which it shall have originated, who shall enter the objections at large on their Journal, and pro- ceed to reconsider it. If, after such reconsideration, two- thirds of that House shall agree to pass the bill, it shall be sent, to- gether with the objections, to the other House, by which it shall likewise be reconsidered, and if approved by two-thirds of that House, it shall become a law. But in all such cases the votes of bo!h Houses shall be determined by yeas and nays, and the names of persons voting for and against the bill shall be entered on the Journal of each House respectively. If any bill shall not be returned by the President within ten days (Sundays excepted) after it shall have been presented (o liim, the same shall be alaw, in like manner as if he had signed it, unless the Congress, by their adjournment, prevent its re- lurn, in which case it shall not be a law.

By the President: Abraham Lincoln. William H. Seward, Secretary of State. POLITICAL PLATFORMS. PLATFORM OF THE BRECKINRIDGE PARTY OF 1860. Resolved^ That the platform adopted by the Democratic party at Cincinnati be affirmed, with the following explana- tory resolutions : 1. That the government of a territory organized by an act of Congress is provisional and temporary, and during its exis- tence all citizens of the United States have an equal right to settle with their property in the territory, without their rights, either in person or property, bemg destroyed by congressional or territorial legislation. 2. That it is the duty of the Federal Government, in all its departments, to protect the rights of persons and property in the territories, and wherever else its constitutional authority extends. 3. That when the settlers in a territory, having an adequate population, form a State Constitution, the right of sovereignty commences, and being consummated by their admission into the Union, they stand on an equality with the people of other States, and a State thus organized ought to be admitted into- the Federal Union, whether its constitution prohibits or rec- ognizes the institution of slavery. 4. That the Democratic party are in favor of the acquisi- tion of Cuba, on such terms as shall be honorable to ourselves and just to Spain, at the earliest practicable moment. 5. That the enactments of State Legislatures to defeat the faithful execution of the Fugitive Slave Law are hostile in character, subversive of the Constitution, and revolutionary in their effect. 6. That the Democracy of the United States recognize it as an imperative duty of the government to protect the natural- (56) POLITICAL PLATFORMS. 57 ized citizen in all his rights, whether in home or in foreign lands, to the same extent as its native born citizens. Whereas, One of the greatest necessities of the age, in a political, commercial, postal, and military point of view, is a speedy communication between the Pacific and Atlanlic, coasts ; therefore, be it resolved, 7. That the National Democratic party do hereby pledge themselves to use every means in their power to secure the passage of some bill, to the extent of the Constitutional au- thority by Congress, for the construction of a railroad to the Pacific Ocean at the earliest practicable moment. PLATFOEM OF THE DOUGLAS PARTY OF 1860. Resolved^ That we, the Democracy of the Union in Conven- tion assembled, hereby declare our affirmation of (he resolu- tions unanimously adopted and declared as a platform of prin- ciples by the Democratic Convention at Cincinnati, in the year 1856, believing that Democraiic principles are unchanga- ble in their nature when applied to the same subject matter, and we recommend as our only further resolutions the follow- ing: That inasmuch as differences of opinion exist in the Demo- cratic party as to the nature and extent of the powers of a Territorial Legislature, and as to the powers and duties of Con- gress, under the Constitution of the United States, over the institution of slavery in the territories ; Resolved., That the Democratic party will abide by the de- cision of the Supreme Court of the United States over the in- stitution of slavery in the territories. Resolved^ That it is the duty of the United States to afford ample and complete protection to all its citizens, at home or abroad, and whether native or foreign born. Resolved., That one of the necessities of the age, in a mili- tary, commercial, and postal point of view, is a speedy com- munication between the Atlantic and Pacific Slates, and the Democratic party pledge such constitutional enactment as will insure the construction of a railroad to the Pacific coast at the earliest practical period. 58 POLITICAL PLATFORMS. Resolved, That the Democratic party are in favor of the ac- quisition of the Island of Cuba, on such terms as shall be hon- orable to ourselves and just to Spain. licsolved. That the enactments of State Legislatures to de- feat the faithful execution of the Fugitive Slave Law are hos- tile in character, subversive to the Constitution, and revolu- tionary in their eifect. .Resolved^ That it is in accordance with the Cincinnati Plat- form, that during the existence of Territorial Governments, the measure of restriction, whatever it may be, imposed by the Federal Constitution on the power of the Territorial Leg- islature over the subject of the domestic relations, as the same has been or shall hereafter be decided by the Supreme Court of the United States, should be respected by all good citizens, and enforced with promptness and fidelity by every branch of the General Government. THE REPUBLICAN PLATFORM OF 1860. Resolved, That we, the delegated representatives of the Re- publican electors of the United States, in Convention assem- bled, in the discharge of the duty we owe to our constituents and our country, unite in the following resolutions : 1. That the history of the nation during the last four years has fully established the propriety and necessity of the organ- ization and perpetuation of the Kepublican party, and that the causes which called it into existence are permanent in their nature, and now, more than ever, demand its peaceful and constitutional triumph. 2. That the maintenance of the principles promulgated in the Declaration of Independence, and embodied in the Federal Constitution, that "all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, among which are those of life, liberty and the pursuit of happi- ness, and that Governments are instituted among men to secure the enjoyment of these rights, deriving their just power from the consent of the governed" — are essential to the pres- ervation of our republican institutions, and that the Federal Constitution, the rights of the States, and the union of the States, must and shall be preserved. POLITICAL PLATFORMS. 59 3. That to the union of the States this nation owes its unpre- cedented increase in population, its surprising developments of material resources ; its rapid augmentation of wealth ; its happiness at home and its honor abroad; and v/e hold in abhorrence all schemes for disunion, come from whatever source they may; and we congratulate the country that no riex)ublican member of Congress has uttered or countenanced the threats of disunion as often made by the Democratic mem- bers of Congress, without rebuke and with applause from their political associates ; and we denounce those threats of disunion in case of a popular overthrow of their ascendency, as denying the vital principles of a free Government, and as an avowal of contemplated treason which it is the imperative duty of an indignant people sternly to rebuke and forever silence. 4. That the maintenance inviolate, of the rights of the States, and especially of each State, to order and control its own domestic institutions according to its own judgment ex- clusively, is essential to that balance of power on wbich the j)erfection and endurance of our political fabric depends; and we denounce the lawless invasion by armed force of the soil of any State or Territory, no matter under what pretext, as one of the gravest of crimes. 5. That the present Democratic Administration has far ex- ceeded our worst apprehensions in the measureless subserviency to the exactions of a sectional interest, as esj)ecially evinced in its desperate exertions to force the infamous Lecompton Constitution upon the protesting people of Kansas, construing the relation between master and servant to involve an unqual- ified property in x^ersons; in its attempted enforcement every where, on land and sea, through the intervention of Congress and of the Federal Courts, of the extreme pretensions of a purely local interest; and in its general and unvarying abuse of the power entrusted to it by a confiding people. 0, Tiiat the people justly view with alarm the reckless ex- travagance which pervades every department of the Federal Government. That a return to right economy and accounta- bility is indispensible to arrest the plunder of the public treasury by favored partisans, while the recent startling devel- opments of frauds and corruption at the Federal metropolis show that an entire change of administration is imperatively demanded. 60 POLITICAL PLATFORilS. 7. That the new do^ma that the Constitution of its own force carries slavery into any or all the Territories of the United States, is a dangerous political heresy, at variance with the explicit provisions of that instrument itself, with cotempo- raneous exposition, and with legislative and judicial prece- denls, that it is revolutionary in its tendency and subversive of the peace and harmony of the country. 5. That the nominal condition of all the territory of the United States is that of freedom; that as our Republican fath- ers, when they had abolished slavery in all our national terri- tory, ordained that no person should be deprived of life, liberty o; property without due process of law, it becomes our duty hy legislation, whenever such legislation is necessary, to maintain this provision of the Constitution against all attempts to violate it ; and we deny the authority of Congress, or a Ter- ritorial Legislature, or of any individual, to give legal existence to slavery in any Territory of the United States. 9. That we brand the recent re-ox)ening of the African Slave Trade, under the cover of our national flag, aided by perver- sions of judicial power, as a crime iigainst humanity, and a burning shame to our country and age; and we call upon Congress to take prompt and efficient measures for the total and final suppression of that exercrable traffic. 10. That in the recent vetoes by their Federal Governors of the acts of the Legislatures of Kansas and Nebraska, pro- hibiting slavery in these Territories, we find a practical illustration of the boasted Democratic principles of non-inter- vention and Popular Sovereignty, embodied in the Kansas- Nebraska bill, and a demonstration of the deception and fraud involved therein. 11. That Kansas should, of right, be immediately admitted as a State under the Constitution recently formed and adopted by her people, and accepted by the House of Representatives. 12. That while providing revenue for the support of the General Government, by duties upon imports, sound policy requires such an adjustment of these imports as to encourage the development of the industrial interests of the whole country, and we commend that policy of National Exchange which secures to the working men liberal wages, agriculture remunerative prices, to merchants and manufacturers an ade- POLITICAL PLATFOKMS. 61 quale reward for their skill, labor and enterprise, and to the nation commercial prosperity and independence. 13. That we protest against any sale or alienation to others of the public lands held by actual settlers, and against any view of the free homestead policy, which regards the settlers as paupers or suppliants for public bounty, and we demand the passage by Congress of the complete and satisfactory homestead measure which has already passed the House. 14. That the National Republican party is opposed to any change in our naturalization laws, or any State Legislation, by which the rights of citizenship hitherto accorded to immigrants from foreign lands shall be abridged or impaired, and in favor of giving a full and efficient protection to the rights of all classes of citizens, whether native or naturalized, both at home and abroad. 15. Tbat appropriations by Congress for river and harbor improvements of a national character, is required for the ac- <3ommodation and security of an existing commerce, or au- thorized by the Constitution and justified by the obligation of the Government to protect the lives and property of its citizens. 16. Tliat a railroad to the Pacific ocean is imperatively de- manded by the interests of the whole country ; and that the Federal Government ought to render immediate and efficient aid in its construction, and that preliminary thereto, a daily overland mail should be promptly established. 17. Finally, having thus set forth our distinctive principles and views, we invite the co-operation of all citizens, however differing in other questions, who substantially agree with us, in their afiirmance and support. PLATFORM OF THE NATIONAL CONSTITUTIONAL PARTY OF 1860. The Union, the Constitution and the Laws. 62 POLITICAL PLATFOJRMS. UNION PLATFORM, ADOPTED AT BALTIMORE, JUNE 8, 1864. Resolved^ That it is the highest duty of every American citizen to maintain against all its enemies, the integrity of the Union, and the paramount authority of the Constitution and laws of the United States, and that, laying all political opin- ions aside, we pledge ourselves, as Union men, animated by a common sentiment, and aiming at a common object, to do everything in our power to aid the Government in quelling, by force of arms, the rebellion now raging against its author- ity, and bringing to the punishment due to their crimes, the rebels and traitors arrayed against it. Resolved^ That we approve the determination of the Gov- ernment of the United States not to compromise with rebels or to offer any terms of peace, except such as may be based upon an unconditional surrender of their hostility, &c., and a return to their just allegiance to the Constitution and laws of the United Slates, and that we call upon the Government to maintain this position, and to ijrosecute the war with the ut- most possible vigor to the complete suppression of the rebel- lion, in full reliance upon the self-sacriiices, the patriotism, the heroic valor, and the undying devotion of the American people to their country and its free institutions. Resolved^ That slavery was the cause, and now constitutes the strength of the rebellion, and that as it mui^^t be always and everywhere hostile to the principles of Republican Gov- ernments, justice and the national safety demand its utter and complete extirpation from the soil of the Republic, and that we uphold and maintain the acts and proclamations by which the Government, in its own defence, has aimed a death blow at this gigantic evil. We are in favor, furthermore, of such an amendment to the Constitution, to be made bj'' the people in conformit3^ with its provisions, as shall terminate and for- ever prohibit the existence of slavery within the limits of the jurisdiction of the United States. Resolved^ That the thanks of the American people are due to the soldiers and sailors of the army and navy, who have periled their lives in defence of their country, and in vindi- cation of the honor of the flag ; that the nation owes them some permanent recognition of their patriotism and their valor, and ample and permanent provision for those of their survivors who have received disabling and honorable wounds POLITICAL PLATFORMS. 63 in the service of their coiuitry, and that the memories of those who have fallen in its defense, shall be held in grateful and everlasting remembrance. Resolved., That we approve and applaud the political wis- dom, the unselfish patriotism and unswerving fidelity to the Constitution and the principles of American L'berty with which Abraham Lincoln has discharged, under circumstances of unparalelled difficuly, the great duties and responsibilities of the Presidential office; that we approve and endorse, as demanded by the emergency and essential to the preservation of the nation, and as within the Conslitution, the measures and acts which he has adopted to defend the nation against its open and secret foes; especially the Proclamation of Emanci- pation, and the employment, as Union soldiers, of men hereto- fore held in slavery, and that we have full confidence in his determination to carry these and all other Constitutional measures, essential to the salvation of the country, into full and complete effect. Resolved^ That we deem it essential to the general welfare, that harmony should prevail in the national councils, and we regard as worthy of public confidence and official (rust those only who cordially endorse the principles proclaimed in these resolutions, and which should characterize the administration of the Government. Resolved., That the Government owes to all men employed in its armies, without distinction of color, the full protection of the laws of war, and any violation of these laws and of the usages of civilized nations in the time of war, by the rebels now in arms, should be made the subject of full and prompt redress. Resolved., That the foreign immigration, which in the past has added so much to the wealth and development of resources and increase of power to this nation, the asylum of the oppress- ed of all nations, should be fostered and encouraged by a liberal and just policy. Resolved., That we are in favor of the speedy construction of the railroad to the Pacific. Resolved., That the national faith is pledged for the redemp- tion of the public debt and must be kept inviolate; and that for this purpose we recommend economj'- and rigid responsi- bilities in the public expenditures, and a vigorous and just <64 POLITICAL PLATFORMS. system of taxation ; that it is the duty of every loyal State to sustain the use of the national currency. Besolved, That we approve the position taken by the Gov- ernment, that the people of the United States can never regard with indifference the attempt of European power to overthrow by forcOj or to supplant by fraud, the institutions of any Re- publican government on the Western Continent, and that they will view with extreme jealousy, as menacing to the peace and independence of ihis our country, the efforts of any such power to obtain new footholds for monarchial governments sustained by a foreign military force in near proximity to the United States. FREMONT PLATFORM, ADOPTED AT CLEVELAND.. MAY 31, 1864. 1. That the Federal Union must be preserved. 2. That the Constitution and laws of the United States must be observed and obeyed. 3. That the rebellion must be suppressed by the force of arms, and without compromise. 4. That the rights of Free Speech, Free Press, and the Habeas Corpus must be held inviolate, save in districts where martial law has been proclaimed. 5. That the rebellion has destroyed slavery, and the Fed- eral Constitution should be amended to prohibit its re-estab- lishment. 6. That the right for asylum, except for crime, and subject to law, is a recognized principle — a principle of American lib- erty ; that any violation of it must not be overlooked, and must not go unrebuked. 7. That the National policy known as the Monroe doctrine has become a recognized principle, and that the establishment of an anti-republican form of government on this continent by a foreign power can not be tolerated. 8. That the gratitude and support of the nation is due to the faithful soldiers, and the earnest leaders of the Union army and navy, for their heroic achievements and valor in defense of our imperiled country and of civil liberty. 9. That the one term policy for the Presidency adopted by POLITICAL PLATFORMS. 65 the people is strengthened by the existing crisis, and shall be maintained by constitutional amendments. 10. That the Constitution shall be so amended that the President and Vice President shall be elected by a direct vote of the people. 11. That the reconstruction of the rebellious States belongs to the people through their representatives in Congress, and not to the Executive. 12. That the confiscation of the lands of the rebels and their distribution among the soldiers and actual settlers is a measure of justice ; that integrity and economy are demanded at all times in the measures of the government, and that now the want of this is criminal. NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM OF 1864. Resolved^ That in the future, as in the past, we will adiiere with unswerving fidelity to the Union under the Constitution as the only solid foundation of our strength, security and hap- piness as a people, and as a framework of government equally conducive to the welfare and prosperity of all the States, both ISIorthern and Southern. Resolved, That this Convention does explicitly declare, as the sense of the American people, that after four years of fail- ure to restore the Union by experiment of war, during which, under the pretence of military necessity or war power higher than the Constitution, the Constitution itself has been disre- garded in every part, and public liberty and private right alike trodden down, and the material prosperity of the country es- sentially impaired, justice, humanity, liberty and the public welfare demand that immediate efforts be made for a cessation of hostilities with a view to an ultimate convention of the States, or other peaceable means, to the end that at the earli- est practical moment peace may be restored on the basis of the Federal Union of the States. Resolved^ That the direct interference of the military au- thorities of the United States in the recent elections held in Kentucky, Maryland, Missouri and Delaware was a shameful 66 POLITICAL PLATFORMS. violation of the Constitution, and a repetition of such acts in the approaching election will be held as revolutionary, and re- sisted with all the means and power under our control. Resolved^ That the aim and object of the Democratic party is to preserve the Federal Union and the rights of the States unimpaired, and they hereby declare that they consider that the administrative usurpation of extraordinary and dangerous powers not granted by the Constitution, the subversion of the civil by military law in States not in insurrection, the arbi- trary military arrest, imprisonment, trial and sentence of American citizens in States where the civil law exists in full force, the suppression of freedom of speech and of the press, the denial of the right of asylum, the open and avowed right of disregard of State rights, the employment of unusual test oaths, and the interference with, and denial of the right of the people to bear arras in their defense, is calculated to prevent a restoration of the Union and a perpetuation of the Govern- ment deriving its just powers from the consent of the gov- erned. Resolved^ That the shameful disregard of the Administra- tion to its duty in respect to our fellow-citizens who now are, and long have been, prisoners of war in a suffering condition, deserves the severest reprobation on the score alike of public policy and common humanity. Resolved, That the sympathy of the Democratic party is heartily and earnestly extended to the soldiery of our army and sailors of our navy who are and have been in the field and on the sea, under the flag of their country, and in the event of its attaining power, they will receive all the care, protec- tion and regard that the brave soldiers and sailors of the Re- public have so nobly earned. THE CHICAGO PLATFOEM, 1868. The following is the platform as adopted: The National Republican Party of the United States, as- sembled in National Convention, in the city of Chicago, on the 20th day of May, 186S, make the following declaration of principles: 1. We congratulate the country on the assured success of POLITICAL PLATFORMS. 67 the reconstruction policy of Congress, as evinced by the adoption, in the majority of the States lately in rebellion, of constitutions securing equal civil and political rights to all; and it is the duty of the Government to sustain those consti- tutions and to prevent the people of such States from bein^ remitted to a state of anarchy. 2. The guarantee by Congress of equal suffrage to all loyal men at the South was demanded by every consideration of public safety, of gratitude, and of justice, and must be main- tained, while the question of suffrage in all the loyal States properly belongs to the people of those States. 3. We denounce all forms of repudiation as a national crime, and the national honor requires the payment of the public indebtedness in the utmost good faith to all creditors at home and abroad, not only according to the letter but the spirit of the laws under which it was contracted. 4. It is due to the labor of the nation that taxation should be equalized and reduced as rapidly as the national faith will permit. 5. The national debt, contracted as it has been for the preservation of the Union for all time to come, should be ex- tended over a fair period for redemption; and it is the duty of Congress to reduce the rate of interest thereon whenever it can be honestly done. 6. That the best policy to diminish our burden of debt is to so improve our credit that capitalists will seek to loan us money at lower rates of interest than we now pay, and must continue to pay, so long as repudiation, partial or total, open or covert, is threatened or suspected. 7. The Government of the United States should be admin- istered with the strictest economy, and the corruptions which have been so shamefully nursed and fostered by Andrew JouNSON call loudly for radical reform. 8. We professedly deplore the untimely and tragic death of Abraham Lincoln, and regret the accession of Anduew Johnson to the Presidency, who has acted treacherously to the people who elected him, and the cause he was pledged to support — who has usurped high legislative and judicial func- tions — who has refused to execute the laws — who has used his high office to induce other officers to ignore and violate the laws — who has employed his executive powers to render inse- 68 POLITICAL PLATFOEMS. cure the property, the peace, liberty, and life of the citizen — who has abused the pardoning power— who has denounced the National Legislature as unconstitutional — persistently and corruptly resisted, by every measure in his power, every proper attempt at the reconstruction of the States lately in rebellion — who has perverted the public patronage into an engine of wholesale corruption, and who has been justly im- l)e ached for high crimes and misdemeanors, and proi^erly pro- nounced guilty thereof by the vote of thirty-five Senators. 9. The doctrine of Great Britain and other European Pow- ers, that because a man is once a subject he is always so, must be resisted at every hazard by the United States as a relic of the feudal times, not authorized by the law of nations, and at war with our national honor and independence. Nat- uralized citizens are entitled to be protected in all their rights of citizenship as though they were native born ; and no citizen of the United States, native or naturalized, must be liable to arrest and imprisonment by any foreign power for acts done or words spoken in this country; and if so arrested and imprisoned it is the duty of the Government to interfere in his behalf. 10. Of all who were faithful in the trials of the late war there were none entitled to more especial honor than the brave soldiers and seamen who endured the hardships of cam- paign and cruise, and imperiled their lives in the service of the country. The bounties and pensions provided by the laws for these brave defenders of the nation are obligations never to be forgotten. The widows and orphans of the gallant dead are the wards of the people, a sacred legacy bequeathed to the nation's protecting care. 11. Foreign emigration, which in the past has added so much to the wealth, development, and resources and increase of power to this nation, the asylum of the oppressed of all nations, should be fostered and encouraged by a liberal and just iJolicy. 12. This Convention declares itself in sympathy with all the oppressed people which are struggling for their rights. The following resolutions were also adopted unanimously, and are added to the declaration of principles : Resolved^ That we highly commend the spirit of magnan- imity and forgiveness with which the men who have served in POLITICAL PLATFORMS. 69 the rebellion, but now frankly and honestly co-opernte with us in restoring the peace of the country and reconstructing the Southern State governments upon the basis of impartial justice and equal rights, are received back into the com- munion of the loyal people. And we favor the removal of the disqualifications and restrictions placed upon the laie rebels in the same measure as the spirit of loyalty will direct, and as may be consistent with the safety of the loyal people. Resolved^ That we recognize the great principles laid down in the immortal Declaration of Independence as the true foundation of Democratic government ; and we hail with gladness every effort toward making these principles a living reality on every inch of American soil. DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM OF 1868. The Democratic party, in National Convention assem.bied, reposing its trust in the intelligence, patriotism, and discrimi- nating justice of the people, standing upon the Constitution as the founda^tion and limitation of the powers of the Government and the guarantee of the liberties of the citizen, and recog- nizing the questions of slavery andsecession as having been set- tled for all time to come by the war or the voluntary action of the Southern States in Constitutional Conventions assembled, and never to be revived or re-agitated, do, with the return of peace, demand: 1. The immediate restoration of all the States to their rights in the Union under the Constitution of the civil Gov- ernment and in the American people. 2. Amnesty for all past political offenses ; the regulation of the elective franchise in the States by their citizens. 3. Payment of the public debt of the United States as rap- idly as practicable, all money drawn from the people by taxa- tion, except so much as is requisite for the necessities of the Government economically administered being honestly ap- plied to such payment, and where the obligations of tho Gov- ernment do not expressly state upon their face or the law under which they were issued does not provide that they shall be paid in coin they ought, in right and justice, be paid in the lawful money of the United States. 70 POLITICAL PLATFORMS. 4. Equal taxation of every species of property according to the value ; reducing Government bonds and other public securities. 5. One currency for the Government and the people, the laborer and the office-holder, pensioner and the soldier, the producer and the bondholder. 6. Economy in the administration or the Government ; the reduction of the standing army and navy ; the abolition of the •Freedmen's Bureau, and all political instrumentalities de- signed to secure negrosupremacy; simplification of tlie system and discontinuance of inquisitorial modes of assessing and collecting internal revenue, that the burden of taxation may be equalized and lessened, and the credit of the Government and the currency made good ; the repeal of all enactments for enrolling the State militia into a national force in time of peace ; and a tariff for revenue upon foreign imports and such equal taxation under the internal revenue laws as will afford incidental protection to domestic manufactures as well, with- out impairing the revenue, impose the least burden upon and best promote and encourage the great industrial interests of the country. 7. Reform of abuses in the Administration ; the expulsion of corrupt men from office ; the abrogation of useless offices ; the restoration of the rightful authority to and the independ- ence of the Executive and Judicial Departments of the Gov- ernment; the subordination of the military to the civil power, to the end that the usurpation of Congress and the despotism of the sword may cease. 8. Equal rights and protection for naturalized and native born citizens at home and abroad ; the assertion of American nationality, which will command the respect of foreign jjowers furnish an example and encouragement to people struggling for national integrity, constitutional liberty, and individual rights ; and the maintenance of the rights of naturalized citi- zens against the absolute doctrine of immutable allegiance and the claims of foreign powers to punish them for alleged crimes committed beyond their jurisdiction. In demanding these measures and reforms, we airaign the radical party for its disregard of right and the unparalleled oppression and Cyranny which have marked its career, alter the most solemn and unanimous pledge of both houses of Congress to prose- POLITICAL PLATFORMS. 71 cute the war exclusively for the maintenance of the Govern- ment and the preservation of the Union under the Constitu- tion. It has repeatedly violated that most sacred pledge under which was rallied that noble volunteer army which car- ried our flag to victory. Instead of restoring the Union it has, so far as it is in its power, dissolved it, and subjected ten States in time of peace to military despotism and negro supremacy. It has nullified there the right of trial by jury ; it has abolished the writ of habeas corpus, that most sacred writ of liberty ; it has overthrown the freedom of speech and of the press ; it has substituted arbitrary seizures and arrests, military trials, se- cret star chambers, and inquisitions for constitutional tribu- nals; it has disregarded, m time of peace, the right of the people to be free from search and seizure ; it has entered the post-office and telegraph office, and even the private rooms of individuals and seized there their private papers and letters, without any specification or notice of affidavit, as required by the organic law. It has converted the American Capitol into a bastile; it has established a system of spies and official espion- age to which the constitutional monarchies of Europe never dare to resort. It has abolished the right of appeal on important constitutional questions to the supreme judicial tribunals, and threatens to curtail or destroy its original juris- diction, which is irrevocably vested by the Constitution ; while the learned Chief Justice has been subjected to the most atro- cious calumnies merely because he would not prostitute his high office to the support of the false and partisan charges against the President. Its corruption and extravagance have exceeded anything known in history, and by its frauds and monopolies it has nearly doubled the burden of the debt cre- ated during the war. It has stripped the President of his Constitutional power of appointment even of his own Cabinet. Under its repeated assaults the pillars of the Government are rocking to their base ; and should it succeed in November next, and inaugurate its President, we will meet as a subjected and conquered people amid the ruins of liberly and the scat- tered fragments of the Constitution; and we do declare and resolve that ever since the people of the United States threw off all subjection to the British crown, the privilege and trust of sufTrage have belonged to the several States, and have been granted, regulated, and controlled exclusively by the political 73 POLITICAL PLATFORMS. power of each State respectively, and any attempt by Con- gress, on any pretext whatever, to deprive any State of this right, or interfere with this exercise, is a flagrant usurpation of power which can find no warrant in the Constitution, and if sanctioned by the people will subvert our form of Govern- ment, and can only e-nd in a single, centralized and consolidated Government, in which the separate existence of the States will be entirely absorbed, and an unqualified despotism then be established in place of a Federal Union of coequal States, and that we regard the reconstruction acts so called of Congress such usurpations and unconstitutional, revolutionary and void ; that our soldiers and sailors who carried the flag of our country to victory against a most gallant and determined foe must ever be gratefully remembered, and all the guarantees given in their favor must be faithfully carried into execution; that the public lands should be distributed widely among the people and should be disposed of either under the i)re-emption of the homestead lands and sold in reasonable quantities, and to none but actual occupants, at the price established by the Govern- ment. When the grants of the public lands may be allowed necessary for the encouragement of important public improve- ments, the proceeds of the sale of such lands, and not the lands themselves, should be so applied ; that the President of the United States, Andrew Johnson, exercising the power of his high office in resisting the aggressions of Congress on the constitutional rights of the States and the i)eople, is entitled to the gratitude of the whole American people, and on behalf of the Democratic party, we tender him our thanks for his patriotic efiorts in that regard. Upon this platform the Democratic party appeal to every patriot, includiug all the conservative element, and all who desire to support the Constitution and restore the Union, for- getting all past differences of opinion, to unite with us in the present great struggle for the liberties of the people ; and that to all such, to whatever party they may have heretofore be- longed, we extend the right hand of fellowship, and hail all such co-operating with us as friends and brothers. POLITICAL PLii^TFORMS. 7$ EEPUBLICAN PLATFORM, 1872. The Kepublican party of the United States, assembled m national convention in the city of Philadelphia on the 5th and 6th days of June, J 872, again declares its faith, appeals to its history, and announces its position upon the questions before the country: 1. During eleven years of supremacy it has accepted with grand courage the solemn duties of the time. It suppressed a gigantic rebellion, emancipated four millions of slares, de- creed the equal citizenship of all, and established universal suffrage. Exhibiting unparalelled magnanimity, it criminally punished no man for political offenses, and warmly welcomed all who proved loyalty by obeying the laws and dealing justly with their neighbors. It has steadily decreased with firm hand the resultant disorders of a great war, and initiated a wise and humane policy toward the Indians. Tlie Pacific rail- road and similar vast enterprises have been generously aided and successfully conducted, the public lands freely given to actual settlers, immigration protected and encouraged, and a full acknowledgement of the naturalized citizen's rights se- cured from European Powers. A uniform national currency has been provided, repudiation frowned down, the national credit sustained under the most extraordinary burdens, and new bonds negotiated at lower rates. The revenues have been care- fully collected and honestly applied. Despite annual large reductions of the rates of taxation, the public debt has been re- duced during General Grant's Pi-esidency at the rate of a hun- dred millions a year, great financial crises have been avoided, and peace and plenty prevail throughout the land. Menacmg foreign difficulties have been peaceful l}-" and honorably com- posed, and the honor and power of the nation kept in high respect throughout the world. This glorious record of the past is the party's best pledge for the future. We believe the people will not intrust the Government to any party or combmation of men composed chiefly of Uwse who have re- sisted every step of this benilicent progress. 2. The recent amendments to the national Constitution should be cordially sustained because they are right, not 74 POLITICAl. PLATFORMS. merely tolerated because they are law, and should be carried out according to their spirit by appropriate legislation, the enforcement of which can safely be intrusted only to the party that secured those amendments. 3. Complete liberty and exact equality in the enjoyment of all civil, political and public rights should be established and effectually maintained throughout the Union by efficient and appropriate State and Federal legislation. Neither the law nor its administration should admit any discrimination in respect of citizens by reason of race, cr^ed, color, or previous condition of servitude. 4. The national Government should seek to maintain hon- orable peace with all nation , protecting its citizens every- where and sympathizing with all peoples who strive for greater liberty. 5. Any system of the civil service under which the subor- dinate positions of the government are considered rewards for mere party zeal is fatally demoralizing, and we therefore favor a reform of the system by laws which shall abolish the evils of patronage and make honesty, efficiency, and fidelity the essential qualifications for public positions, without creating a life tenure of office. 6. We are opposed to further grants of the public lands to corporations and monopolies, and demand that the national domain be set apart for free homes for the people. 7. The annual revenue, after paying current expenditures, pensions, and the interest on the public debt, should furnish a moderate balance for the reduction of the principal, and that revenue, except so much as may be derived from a tax upon tobacco and liquors, should be raised by duties upon im- portations, the details of which should be so adjusted as to aid in securing remunerative wages to labor, and promote the industries, prosperity, and growth of the whole country. 8. We hold in undying honor the soldiers and sailors whose valor saved the Union. Their pensions are a sacred debt of the nation, and the widows and orphans of those who died for their country are entitled to the care of a generous and grate- ful people. We favor such additional legislation as will ex- tend the bounty of the Government to all our soldiers and POLITICAL PLATFORMS. 75 sailors who were honorably discharged, and who in the line of duty became disabled, wi^thout regard to the length of ser- vice or the cause of such discharge. 9. The doctrine of Great Britain and other European Pow- ers concerning allegiance — "once a subject always asubject" — having at last through the efforts of the Republican party been abandoned, and the American idea of the individual's right to transfer allegiance having been accepted by Euro- pean nations, it is the duty of our Government to guard with jealous care the rights of adopted citizens against the assump- tion of unauthorized claims by their former Governments, and we urge continued careful encouragement and protec- tion of voluntary immigration. 10. The franking privilege ought to be abolished, and the way prepared for a speedy reduction in the rates of postage. 11 Among the questions which press for attention is that which concerns the relations of capital and labor, and the Republican party recognizes the duty of so shaping legis- lation as to secure full protection and the amplest field for capital, and for labor, the creator of capital, the largest oppor- tunities and a just share of the mutual profits of the^e two great servants of civilization. 12. We hold that Congress and the President have only fulfilled an imperative duty in their measures for the sup- pression of violent and treasonable organizations in certain lately rebellious regions, and for the protection of the ballot- box; and therefore they are entitled to the thanks of the nation. i3. We denounce repudiation of the public debt, in any form or disguise as a national crime. We witness with pride the reduction of the principal of the debt, and the rates of in- terest upon the balance, and confidently expect that our ex- cellent national currency will be perfected by a speedy re- sumption of specie payment. 14. The Republican party is mindful of its obligations to the loyal women of America for their noble devotion to the cause of freedom. Their admission to wider fields of useful- ness is viewed with satisfaction ; and the honest demand of 76 POLITICAL PLATFOKMS. any class of citizens for additional rights should be treated with respectful consideration. 15. We heartily approve the action of Congress in extend- ing amnesty to those lately in rebellion, and rejoice in the growth of peace and fraternal feeling throughout the land. 16. The Republican party proposes to respect the rights reserved by the people to themselves as carefully as the powers delegated by them to the State and to the Federal Government. It disapproves of the resort to unconstitutional laws for the purpose of removing evils, by interference with rights not surrendered by the people to either the State or na- tional Government. 17. It is the duty of the General Government to adopt such measures as may tend to encourage and restore American commerce and ship-building. 18. We believe that the modest patriotism, the earnest pur- pose, the sound judgment, the practical wisdom, the incor- ruptible integrity, and the illustrious services of Ulysses S. Grant have commended him to the heart of the American people, and with him at our head we start to day upon a new march to victory. 19. Henry Wilson, nominated for the Vice-Presidency known to the whole land from the early days of the great struggle for liberty as an indefatigable laborer in all cam- paigns, an incorruptible legislator and representative man of American institutions, is worthy to associate with our great leader and share the honors which we pledge our best eiForts to bestow upon them. NATIONAL LIBERAL REPUBLICAN CONVENTION, 1872. ADDRESS TO THE PEOPLE OP THE UNITED STATES. The Administration row in power has rendered itself guilty of wanton disregard of the laws of the land, and of usurping powers not granted by the Constitution; it has acted as if the laws had binding force only for those who are governed, and not for those who govern. It has thus struck a blow at the fundamental principles of constitutional government and the liberties of the citizen. POLITICAL PLATFORMS. 77 The President of the United States has openly used the powers and opportunities of his high office for the promotion of personal ends. He has kept notoriously corrupt and unworthy men in places of power and responsibility, to the detriment of the public interest. He has used the public service of the Government as a machinery of corruption and personal influence, and has inter- fered with tyrannical arrogance in the political affairs of States and municipalities. He has rewarded with influential and lucrative offices men who had acquired his favor by valuable presents, thus stimu lating the demoralization of our political life by his conspicu- ous example. He has shown himself deplorably unequal to the task im- posed upon him by the necessities of the country, and culpa- bly careless of the responsibilities of his high office. The partizans of the Administration, assuming to be the Republican party and controlling its organization, have at- tempted to justify such wrongs and palliate such abuses to the end of maintaining partisan ascendency. They have stood in the way of necessary investigations and indispensable reforms, pretending that no serious fault could be found with the present administration of public afiairs, thus seeking to blind the eyes of the people. They have kept alive the passions and resentment of the late civil war, to use them for their own advantage , they have resorted to arbitrary measures in direct conflict with the organic law, instead of appealing to the better instincts and latent patriotism of the Southern people by restoring to them these rights, the enjoyment of which is indispensable to a suc'?essful administration of their local afi"airs, and would tend to revive a patriotic and hopeful national feeling. They have degraded themselves and the name of their partj^ once justly entitled to the confidence of the nation, by a base sycophancy to the dispenser of executive power and patron- age, unworthy of republican freemen ; they have sought to silence the voice of just criticism, and stifle the moral sense of the people, and to subjugate public opinion by tyrannical party discipline. They are striving to maintain themselves in authority for 78 POLITICAL PLATFORMS. selfish ends by an unscrupulous use of the power which right- fully belongs to the people, and should be employed only in the service of the country. Believing that an organization thus led and controlled can no longer be of service to the best interests of the Republic, we have resolved to make an independent appeal to the sober judgment, conscience, and patriotism of the American people. KESOLUTIONS. We, the Liberal Republicans of the United States, in National Convention assembled at Cincinnati, proclaim the following principles as essential to just government: 1. We recognize the equality of all men before the law, and hold that it is the dut> of government, in its dealings with the people, to mele out equal and exact justice to all, of whatever nativity, race, color, or persuasion, religious or political. 2. We pledge ourselves to maintain the Union of these States, emancipation and enfranchisement, and to oppose any re-opening of the questions settled by the thirteenth, four- teenth, and fifteenth amendments of the Constitution. 3. We demand the immediate and absolute removal of all disabilities imposed on account of the rebellion, which was finally subdued seven years ago, believing that universal am- nesty will result in complete pacification in all sections of the country. 4. Local self-government, with impartial sufi'rage, will guard the rights of all citizens more securely than any centralized power. The public welfare requires the supremacy of the civil over the military authority, and the freedom of person under the protection of the haheas corpus. We demand for the indi- vidual the largest liberty consistent with public order, for the State self-government, and for the nation a return to the mefuods of peace and the constitutional limitations of power. h. The civil service of the Government has become a mere instrument of partisan tyranny and personal ambition, and an object of selfish greed. It is a scandal and reproach upon free institutions, and breeds a demoralization dangerous to the perpetuity of republican government.

NATIONAL I>EMOCRATIC CONVENTION, 1872. We, the Democratic electors of the United States in Con- vention assembled, do present the following principles, already adopted at Cincinnati, as essential to just government. 1. We recognize the equality of all men before the law, and hold that it is the duty of Government in its dealings with the people to mete out equal and exact justice to all, of whatever nativity, race, color, or persuasion, religious or political. 2. We pledge ourselves to maintain the union of these States, emancipation, and enfranchisement, and to oppose any re-opening of the questions settled by the thirteenth, four- teenth and fifteenth amendments to the Constitution. 3. We demand the immediate and absolute removal of all disabilities imposed on account of the rebellion, which was finally subdued seven years ago, believing that universal am- nesty will result in complete pacification in all sections of the country. 4. Local self-government, with impartial sufi'rage, will guard the rights of all citizens more securely than any cen- tralized power. The public welfare requires the supremacy of the civil over the military authority, and freedom of person under the protection of the habeas corpus. We demand for the individual the largest liberty consistent with public order ; for the State self-government, and for the nation a re- turn to the methods of peace and the constitutional limita- tions of power. 5. The civil service of the Government has become a mere instrument of partisan tyranny and personal ambition, and an object of selfish greed. It is a scandal and reproach upon free institutions and breeds a demoralization dangerous to the perpetuity of republican government. We therefore re- gard a thorough reform of the civil service as one of the most pressing necessities of the hour ; that honesty, capacity, and fidelity constitute the only valid claim to public employ- ment; that the offices of the government cease to be a mat- ter of arbitrary favoritism and patronage, and that public station become again a post of honor. To this end it is im- peratively required that no President shall be a candidate for re-election. POLITICAL PLATFORMS. 81 6. We demand a system of Federal taxation which shall not unnecessarily interfere with the industry of the people, and which shall provide the means necessary to pay the ex- penses of the Government, economically administered, the pensions, the interest on the public debt, and a moderate re- daction annually of the principal thereof; and recognizing that there are in our midst honest but irreconcilable diifer- ences of opinion with regard to the respective systems of protection and free trade, we remit the discussion of the sub- ject to the people in their Congressional districts, and to the decision of the Congress thereon, wholly free from executive interference or dictation. 7. The public credit must be sacredly maintained, and we denounce repudiation in every form and guise. 8. A speedy return to specie payment is demanded alike by the highest considerations of commercial morality and honest government. 9. We remember with gratitude the heroism and sacrifices of the soldiers and sailors of the Republic, and no act of ours shall ever detract from their justly earned fame for the full reward of their patriotism. 10. We are opposed to all further grants of lands to rail- roads or other corporations. The public domain should be held sacred to actual settlers. 11. We hold that it is the duty of the Government in its intercourse with foreign nations to cultivate the friendships of peace, by treating with all on fair and equal terms, regard- ing it alike dishonorable either to demand what is not right or to submit to what is wrong. 12. For the loromotion and success of these vital princi- ples, and the support of the candidates nominated by this convention, we invite and cordially welcome the co-operation of all patriotic citizens, without regard to previous political affiliations. NATIONAL LABOR REFORM CONVENTION, 1872. We hold that all political power is inherent in tlie people, and free government founded on their authority and estab- lished for iheir benefit; that all citizens are equal in political 6 82 POLITICAL PLATFORMS. rights, entitled to the largest religious and political liberty compatible with the good order of society, as also the use and enjoyment of the fruits of their labor and talents ; and no man or set of men is entitled to exclusive separable endowments and privileges, or immunities from the Government, but in consideration of public services; and any laws destructive of these fundamental principles are without moral binding force, and should be repealed. And believing that all the evils re- sulting from unjust legislation now affecting the industrial classes can be removed by the adoption of the principle con- tained in the following declaration : Therefore, Resolved^ That it is the duty of the Government to estab- lish a just standard of distribution of capital and labor by providing a purely national circulating medium, based on the faith and resources of the nation, issued directly to the people without the intervention of any system of banking corpora- tions, which money shall be legal tender in the payment of all debts, public and private, and interchangeable at the oj^tion of the holder for Government bonds bearing a rate of interest not to exceed 3-65 per cent., subject to future legislation by Congress. 2. That the national debt should be paid in good faith, ac- cording to the original contract, at the earliest option of the Government, without mortgaging the property of the people or the future exigencies of labor to enrich a few capitalists at home and abroad. 3. That justice demands that the burden of Government should be so adjusted as to bear equally on all classes, and that the exemption from taxation of Government bonds bear- ing extravagant rates of interest is a violation of all just prin- ciples of revenue laws. 4. That the public lands of the United States belong to the people and should not be sold to individuals nor granted to corporations, but should be held as a sacred trust for the ben- efit of tlie people, and should be granted to landless settlers only, in amounts not exceeding one hundred and sixty acres of land. 5. That Congress should modify the tariff so as to admit free such articles of common use as we can neither produce nor grow, and lay duties for revenue mainly upon articles of luxury and upon such articles of manufacture as will, we bav- POLITICAL PLATFORMS. 83 ing the raw materials, assist in further developing the re- sources of the country. G. That the presence in our country of Chinese laborers, imported by capitalists in Ir.rge numbers for servile uso>, is an evil, entailing want and its attendant train of misery and crime on all classes of the American people, and should be prohib- ited by legislation. T. That we ask for the enactment of a law by which all mechanics and day-laborers employed by or on behalf of the Government, whether directly or indirectly, through persons, firms, or corporations, contracting with the State, shall conform to the reduced standard of eight hours a day, recently adopted by Congress for national employes, and also for an amendment to the acts of incorporation for cities and towns by which all laborers and mechanics employed at their expense shall con- form to the same number of hours. 8. That the enlightened spirit of the age demands the abo- lition of the system of contract labor in our prisons and other reformatory institutions. 9. That the protection of life, liberty, and property are the three cardinal principles of Government, and the first two are more sacred than the latter ; therefore money needed for prosecuting wars should, as it is required, be assessed and col- lected from the wealthy of the country, and not entailed as a burden on posterity. 10. That it is the duty of the Government to exercise its power over railroads and telegraph corporations, that they shall not in any case be privileged to exact such rates of freight, transportation, or charges, by whatever name, as may bear unduly or unequally upon the producer or consumer. 11. That there should be such a reform in the civil service of the national Government as will remove it beyond all part- isan influence, and place it in the charge and under the direc- tion of intelligent and competent business men. 12. That as both history and experience teaches us that power ever seeks to perpetuate itself by every and all means, and that its prolonged possession in the hands of one person is always dangerous to the interests of a free people, and believing that the spirit of our organic laws and the stability and safely of our free institutions are best obeyed on the one 84 POLITICAL PLATFORMS. hand, and secured on the other, by a regular constitutional change in the chief of the country at each election : therefore, we are in favor of limiting the occupancy of the presidential chair to one term, 13. That we are in favor of granting general amnesty and restoring the Union at once on the basis of equality of rights and privileges to all, the impartial administration of justice being the only true bond of union to bind the States together and restore the Government of the people. li. That we demand the subjection of the military to the civil authorities, and the confinement of its operations to national puri)oses alone. 15. That we deem it expedient for Congress to supervise the patent laws, so as to give labor more fnlly the benefit of its own ideas and inventions. 16. That fitness, and not political or personal considera- tions, should be the only recommendation to public cffice, either appointive or elective, and any and all laws looking to the establishment of this principle are heartily approved. THE BAXTER LIQUOR LAW. AN ACT to regulate the sale of intoxicating liquors; to provide against evils resulting from any sale thereof; to furnish remedies for damages suffered by any person in consequence of such sale; prescribing penal ties; to repeal all laws contravening the provisions of this act, and declaring an emergency. [Approved February 27, 1873.] Section 1. Be it enacted hy the General Assembly of the State of Indiana, That it shall be unlawful for any person or persons, by himself or agent, to sell, barter, or give away for any purpose of gain, to any person whomsoever, any intoxi- cating liquors to be drunk in, upon, or about the building or premises where the liquor is sold, bartered, or given away, or in any room, building, or premises adjoining to or connected with the place where the liquor is sold, bartered, or given away for the purpose of gain, until such person or persons shall have obtained a permit therefor from the board of com- missioners of the county where lie resides, as hereinafter provided. Sec. 2. Any person desiring a permit to sell intoxicating liquors to be drunk on the premises, shall file in the ofBce of the auditor of the proper county, not less than twenty days before the first day of the term of any regular session of the board of commissioners of such county, a petition in writing, stating therein the building or number, street, ward or town- ship wherein the permission is asked to be granted, praying for such permit, and certifying that the applicant is a resident voter of such county, and a citizen of the State of Indiana, and that he is a proper person to have and receive such permit ; which petition shall be signed by the applicant, and also by a majority of the legal voters resident in the ward, if it be in a (85) 86 THE BAXTER LIQUOR LAW. city or town, if it be in an incorporated town, or township wherein the applicant proposes to sell intoxicating liquors; such petition shall be kept on file by the auditor until the next ensuing regular session of the board of commissioners, when it shall be presented to the board for their action. The board shall examine such petition, and if satisfied the same is in proper form, and that it has been signed as hereinbefore required, shall direct a permit to be issued under the hand and seal of said auditor, and delivered to the person named in such permit, upon his complying with the provisions of this act and paying the costs of filing and recording said petition and costs of issuing said permit. Sec. 3.

Such bond may be sued and recovered upon in any court having civil jurisdiction in the county (except justices' courts) by or for the use of any person or persons, or their legal representatives, who may be injured or damaged by reason of any sale or sales of intoxicating liquors by the person receiving the peimit or by any of his agents or employees. Tho record of the bond or a copy thereof, duly certified by such auditor, shall be admissible in evidence in any suit on such bond, and shall have the same force and effect as the original bond would have if offered in evidence. Sec. 4. The whole number of votes cast for candidates for Congress at the last preceding Congressional election in the township, and the whole number of votes cast for councilman or trustee in any ward or town, at the last preceding munici- pal election in any city or town in which the applicant for permit desires to sell said intoxicating liquors, shall be deemed to be the whole number of legal voters of such ward, town or township, a majority of whose names shall be signed to the petition, of such applicant; and it is further provided, that any person not a legal voter in said ward, town or town- ship, who shall sign said petition, or any person who signs the name of any person other than himself, without the permis- sion previously obtained of said person to so sign his name, shall be fined not less than fifty nor more than one hundred dollars for each signature so made. Sec. 5. No permit, as herein provided for, shall be granted for a longer or shorter time than one year. It shall be the duty of the Auditor of the county to furnish the person to whom such permit is granted, a copy of the order of the Com- missioners granting the permit, which copy shall show in con- spicuous letters the date of the commencement of such permit, and of its expiration ; and it is further provided^ That such copy of the order of the Commissioners, certified by the Auditor, shall bo hungup in a conspicuous place in the room where said liquor is sold, where the same may at all times be seen and read by any person desiring so to do. Should any person holding a permit be convicted of a viola- tion of any of the provisions of this act, such conviction shall THE BAXTER LIQUOR LAW. work a forfeiture of his permit, and of all rights thereunder; and no jjermit shall thereafter be granted to such person be- fore the expiration of five years from the date of such con- viction.

GEOLOGICAL ITEMS. :o:- " It is not easy to give an accurate and comprehensive defi- nition of the science of geology. It is, indeed, not so much one science, as the application of all the physical sciences to the examination of the structure of the earth, the investiga- tion of the processes concerned in the production of that structure, and the history of their action. That this large view of geology is not only a true but a necessary one, is shown by the fact, that it was not until considerable advances had been made in all the physical sciences which relate di- rectly to the earth, that geology could begin to exist in any worthy form. It was not until the chemist was able to explain the nature of the mineral substances of which rocks are com- posed ; not till the geographer and meteorologist had explored the surface of the earth, and taught us the extent of land and water, and the powers of winds, currents, rains, glaciers, earth- quakes and volcanoes ; not until the naturalist had classified, named, and described the greater part of existing animals and plants, and explained their anatomical structure, and the laws of their distribution in space;— that the geologist could, with any chance of arriving at sure and definite results, commence his researches into the structure and composition of rocks and the causes which produced them, or utilize his discoveries of the remains of animals and plants that are inclosed in them. He could not until then discriminate with certainty batween igneous and aqueous rocks, between living and extinct ani- mals, and was, therefore, unable to lay down any one of the foun- dations on which his own science was to rest." — Encyclopedia Britannica^ Sih edition^ vol. xv. If there is any one fact which the study of geology teaches more unmistakably than another, it is, that the matter com- posing the crust of the earth, from the time when it was first called into existence by the ^at of the Creator to the present, has been subjected to an endless cycle of mutations. There (93) 94 GEOLOGICAL ITEMS. may have been periods of comparative rest and quiescen e. but none of perfect stagnation and stability; so that the pres- ent condition and configuration of the earth's surface may be considered as the last result of a series of cosmical changes^ whicii commenced with the dawn of creation, and are con- tinuing on into the future. "Had the exterior crust of the earth been subjected to no modil'ying causes, the world would have presented the same appearance now as at the time of its creation. The distribu- tion of land and sea would have remained the same; there would have been the same surface arrangement of hill, valley and plain, and the same unvarying aspects of animal and veg- etable existence. Under such circumstances, geology, instead of striving to present a consecutive history of change and progress, would have been limited to a mere description of permanently enduring appearances. The case, however, is widely different." There is no part of the present land-surface of the globe which has not at some time been covered by the ocean, while much of the present sea bottom has been in turn dry land. Many of the loftiest and most extensive ranges of mountains upon the globe — the Alps, the Andes, and the Himalayas — are of comparatively recent elevation (recent as compared with the White Mountains of New England, or the Appallaehian chain of the Atlantic States); while the com- mencement of the existence of every animal and vegetable species at present found upon the earth was long subsequent to the existence of the myriad organisms, whose remains are now found fossil beneath its surface. The agencies which have produced, and are still tending to produce, changes in the constitution and structure of our planet, may be classified as follows : 1. Igneous agencies, or such as manifest themselves in connection with some deep- seated source of heat in the interior of the globe. 2. Aque- ous, or thoBe arising from the action of the water. 3. Atmos- pheric, or those operating through the medium of the atmos- phere. 4. Organic, or those depending on animal and vegetable growth. 5. Chemical, or those resulting from the chemical action of substances on each other. — Wells^ Jllus- trated Geology. GEOLOGICAL ITEMS. 95 THE TEMPERATURE OF THE EARTH. The following are some of the observations made most re- cently on this subject: In England, observations have been made in the vertical shafts of two very deep coal mines, viz., at Monkwearmouth, which is ISOO feet deep, and Dunkinfield which is upwards of 2000 feet deep, and in both cases the ob- servations were made while the workmen were sinking the shafts, and with every precaution against the influence of any extraneous causes. The former gave an increase of 1 deg. of Fahrenheit for every sixty feet of depth, and the latter 1 deg. for about every seventy feet. The artesian well of Grenelle (Paris), is 1800 feet deep ; observations made by Arago, during the boring, showed that the average increase of temperature in this was 1 deg. for sixty feet. At Mordorif. Luxemburg, the depth of the artesian well is 2400 feet, and the increase in temperature 1 deg. for every fifty-seven feet. At the .-irtesian well of New Seltzwork, in Westphalia, the depth is 2j00 feet^ and the increase 1 deg. for every tilly-five feet. At Louisville, Ky.,the depth of an artesian well, finished in 1859, is 2086 feet deep, and the average increase is 1 deg. for ever^^ sixty-seven feet below the first ninety feet from the surface. In the silver mine of Guanaxato, Mexico, 1713 feet deep, the increase is 1 deg. for every forty-five feet. In the coal mines of Eastern Virginia, the increase is about 1 deg. for every sixty feet. VOLCANIC ERUPTIONS. One or two remarkable instances of volcanic eruptions may be briefly noticed. First, for duration and force we may refer to that which took place in the island of Sumbawa (one of the Sunda Islands lying east of Java), in the year 1S15. It com- menced on the 5th of April, and did not entirely cease until July. Its influence (i. e. shocks, and the noise of the explo- sions) was perceptible over an area 1,800 miles in diameter, while within the range of its more immediate vicinity, embrac- ing a space of 400 miles, its effects were most terrific. In Java, 300 miles distant, it seemed to be awfully present. The sky was overcast at noon day with clouds of ashes, which the light of the sun was unable to penetrate, and fields, streets, and houses were covered with ashes to the depth of several inches. At Sumbawa itself, immense columns of flame appeared to burst forth from the top of the volcano, Tombora, and in a 96 GEOLOGICAL ITEMS. short time the whole mountain appeared like a mass of liquid fire, which gradually extended in every direction. As the eruption continued, a darkness supervened, so profound as to obscure even the light of the flames ; showers of stones and ashes fell continuously over the whole island ; the sea rose twelve feet higher than it had ever been known to do before; and finally a whirlwind ensued, which tore up the largest trees, and carried them into the air, together with men, horses, cat- tle, and whatever else came within its influence. Of 12,000 inhabitants in the vicinity only six are believed to have es- caped, and of some entire villages not even a vestige remained. In 1772, the Papandayang, one of the loftiest volcanic moun- tains in J.iva, after a short but severe eruption, suddenly fell in and disappeared in the earth, carrying with it about ninety square miles of territory. Forty villages were engulfed, or covered with ejected matter, at the same time, and nearly 3,000 persons perished. — Wclls^ Illustrated Geology' DESCRIPTIONS OF AN EAETHQUAKE. "A powerful eathquake," says Mr. Darwin, "at once destroys the oldest associations ; the world, the very emblem of all that is solid, has moved beneath our feet like a crust over a fluid; one second of time has conveyed to the mind a strange idea of insecurity, which hours of reflection would never have created." "To man," says Humbolt, "the earthquake conveys an idea of some universal and unlimited danger. We may flee from the crater of a volcano in active eruption, or from a locality threatened by the approach of a lava stream ; but in an earth- quake, direct our flight whithersoever we will, we still feel as though we trod upon the very focus of destruction. Every sound — the faintest motion in the air — arrests our attention, and we no longer trust the ground on which we stand. Ani- mals, especially dogs and swine, participate in the same anxious disquietude ; and even crocodiles, in the rivers of South Amer- ica, which at other times are dumb, have been observed to quit the water and run, with loud cries, into the adjacent forests." AQUEOUS AND ATMOSPHERIC AGENCIES. The aqueous and atmospheric agencies most prominently concerned in producing geological changes, are rains^ and the OEOLOGICAL ITEMS. 97 gasses OAid moisture of the atrnos2)here^ winds^ ice, and snow^ springs, rivers, waves, tides, and OGeanio currents. The operation of water, acting mechanically, is, under all circumstances, to wear down the higher portions of the earth's crust, and transport the materials to lower localities — an ac- tion which obviously tends to reduce the whole surface to a sraoofh and uniform \q^q\. On the other hand, the operations of igneous agents — volcanoes, earthquakes, etc. — by breaking up and elevating the crust of the earth, tend to counteract the equalizing action of water and to produce that diversity of- surfaco which is indispensable to variety in both the vegetable and animal kingdoms. These two forces, therefore— the aque- ous and the igneous — may be considered as ani agonistic to each other, and to them may be ascribed the principal modiii- cations which have taken place, and are still taking place, in the crust of the globe. — ^VdVs Illustra.ted Geology CORAL REELnS. "The ocean," says Mr. Darwin, 'throwmg its breakers on the outer shore, appears an invincible enemy, yet we see it re- sisted, and even conquered, by means which at first seem weak and inetHcient. No periods of repose are granted, and the heavy swell caused by I he steady action of the trade wind never ceases. The breakers exceed in violence those of our temperate regions ; and it is impossible to behold Ihem with- out feeling a conviction that rocks of granite or quartz would ultimately be demolished by such irresistable Ibrces. Yet these low coral islands stand and are victorious, for here another power, antagonistic to the former, takes part in the contest. The organic forces separate the atoms of carbonate of lime, one by one, from the foaming breakers, and unite them into a symmetrical structure ; myriads of architects are at work day and night, month after month, and we see their sofc andk gelatinous bodies, through the agency of the vital laws, conquering the great mechanical power of the waves of the ocean, which neither the art of man nor !he mechanical works of nai ure could successfully resist." The animals wliich produce coral are very timple, and resemble plants both in their figures and colors, 7 98 GEOLOGICAL ITEMS. THE FIEST FORMED STRATIFIED ROCKS. The adoption of the theor3% that our earth was once in a state of entire molten fluidity, involves the existence of a sub- sequent period, when its primeval crust hadsufliciently cooled down to allow of the condensation of watery vapor and of the existence of a sea upon its surface. Whenever this happened,, the eroding and destructive action of water must have imme- diately manifesi'ted itself, while the particles of the consolida- ted igneous crust, worn off by the action of waves, tides, and currents, and deposited as sediments, would naturally produce stratified formations. The internal heat of the earth at that period, however, must have continued to act with great intensity near the surface, and the strata first deposited, consequently, were, in all prob- ability, soon greatly metamorphosed, i. e.^ reraelted down to form igneous rocks, or converted into hard crystalline semi- igneous rocks, that retained, in part, their original lines of stratification. Whether any of these first formed stratified rocks are in ex- istence, and open to our inspection, it is impossible to aflirm. Some geologists incline to the opinion that they were entirely remelted, and are now represented by the older or funda- mental granites, which, in some instances, appear to have an obscurely stratified structure. Be this as it may, it is, however, a matter of fact, that the oldest rocks of which we have any knowledge, which exhibit evidence of a sedimentary origin, appear to have been formed under conditions analogous to those above supposed. Thus, they are all more or less crystalline and indurated ; their lines of stratification are indistinct, and often altogether oblitera- ted ; and I heir whole aspect is very difi'erent from what is usually ascribed to rocks deposited in water. — Wellii Illustra- ted Geology. FORMATION OF COAL. It is now universally admitted by geologists, that coal is a mass of compressed, altered, and mineralized vegetation, just as sandstone is consolidated sand, and the slate and shale con- solidated clay or mud. The evidence upon which the belief is founded may be briefly stated, as follows : Ist. The enormous profusion of fossil plants, in the form of GEOLOGICAL ITEMS. 99 impressions of leaves, trunks, branches, and barks of trees, found in immediate connection with coal seams. 2d. Goid is composed of carbon, hydroi^en, and oxygen, the same ele- ments (though diiiering in proportion) which enter into the composition of planis. 3d. The substance of coal, when ex- amined under the microscope, affords unmistakable evidence of a vegetable (cellular) structure. 4th. All the stages of gradation between perfect wood and perfect coal may be traced with the greatest certainty. But granting the vegetable origin of coal, the question im- mediately suggests itself: Under what circumstances cou'd so great an amount of vegetable matter have ever accumu- lated? — the magnitude of which may be realized in a degree, from the asserted fact "that all the forests of (he United States, if gathered into one heap, would fail to furnish the ma- terials of a single coal seam equal to that of Pittsburg, Penn." Furthermore, coal is found stratified, laminated, and ex- tended, in horizontal beds, which often cover very large areas, with a nearly constant thickness — 'he great Pittsburg coal seam, above referred to for example, having a nearly uniform thickness of from eight to twelve feet, and is estimated to have once covered a surface of 90,000 square miles. Goal, moreover, is ordinarily encased between beds of shale or sandstone, which bear evident proof of having been slowly deposited in quiet waters. In some coal fields, as many us seventy seams of coal, varying in thickness from a few inches to four, six, eight, ten, twelve, and twenty feet, occur thus in- terstratificd with shales and sandstones ; and yet, notwith- standing these frequent alternations of material, the purity of the coal is such, that it rarely contains any considerable ad- mixture of mud, sand, or other foreign mineral substances. In explanation of these phenomena, various hypotheses have been suggested, but the general opinion of the best ge- ologists of the present day is, that the vegetable matter con- stituting coal, must, in the main, have grown and accumu- lated in immense jungles and peat mosses for many years ; that the laiul must have then sunk, and become the basin of a lake or est nary, into which rivers ca'-ried mud and sand; these^ covering the vegetable matter, gradually consolidated into shales and sandstones, while tho vegetable matter itself un- derwent the process of mineralization, and was converted into 100 GEOLOaiCAL ITEMS. coal. This being done, it is supposed that the area of deposit was again elevated, so as to become once more the scene of kixnrianf vegetation ; then again submerged, and overlaid by new depooilS of sandstone and shale; then once more elevated and covered with plants, and again submerged; and these al- ternations of submergence and elevationr? are prrsumed to have taken place as often as there are beds of coal in any par ticular coal field. — WelVs Illustrated Geology. CLIMATIC CONDITIONS OF THE CARBONIFEROUS ERA. There is one <'ircumstance in connection with the formation of coal which has given rise to a vast amount of ingenious speculation and liypotheses, viz: the apparent sameness of external conditions over such extensive areas of the earth as are now occupied by our known coal fields. Thus, the same gigantic ferns and club-mosses are found alike in the coal fields of America, Europe, Melville Island, Greenland, and Austrab":v- regions widely separated, and at once tropical, temperate, and frigid. To ac|ount for this luxuriance and homogeneity of vegetable growth various causes have been suggested, as the earth's central heat, a change in the earth's axis, a larger percentage of carbonic acid in the atmosphere, the planetary system moving through warmer regions of space and tho like ; but thus far geologists have arrived at no definite conclusions on the subject. Deposits of carbonaceous matter have occurred at almost every period of the earth's historv, as is evidenced by the fact that thin seams of coal are found in almost all the geological systems; but Ihe coal beds which admit of economical work- ing are almost exclusively confined to the carboniferous sys- tem. The only exceptions are a few coal fields belonging to the Oolih'c or Jurassic system, which, in Virginia and some other localities, admit of profitable mining. It seems, there- fore, certain, that whatever may have been the conditions which allov/ed of so abundant a terrestrial vegetation at this particular epoch of the earth's history, those conditions ceased about tho time when the era of the Carboniferous system ter- minated. A high temperature was evidently not one of these conditions, for there are evidences of it afterwards; and some authorities incline to the belief that the superabundance of carbonic acid gas, which is supposed to have existed during GEOLOGICAL ITEMS. 101 this era, was expended before its close. " There can be no doubt that the infusion of a large amount of this gas into the atmosphere at the present day would be attended by precisely the same circumstances as in the time of the coal epoch. The higher forms of animal life would not have a place on eavih. Vegetation would be enormous ; and coal strata would be formed from the vast accumulations of woody matter, which would gather in every favorable locality." DISTRIBUTION OF COAL. Coal is very widely distributed over the world, although some countries are more highly favored than others. Avail- able coal fields occur in Great Britain ; in Spain, France, Bel- gium and Middle Europe; in India, China and Japan; in the islands of the Indian Archipelago; in Australia and New Zealand : in South America, Chili and Peru ; in Greenland, Melville Island and in British America. But nowhere is the coal formation more extensively displayed than in the United States, and nowhere are its beds of greater thickness, more convenient for working, or of more valuable quality. The eastern half of the continent of North America exhibits five great coal fields, extending from Newfoundland to Arkan- sas: 1. The Arst^ or most eastern, is that of the British Prov- inces, Newloundiand, Nova Scotia, and New Brunswick. Its area is probably about 9,000 square miles, though only one tenth of this surface appears to be underlaid by productive coal seams. 2. The second^ or Great Appalachian coal field, extends from Pennsylvania and Ohio to near Tuscaloosa, in the interior of Alabama. It is about S75 miles long, and is es- timated to contain 70,000 pquare miles. 3. A thirds and smaller coal field, occupies the center of the State of Michi- gan ; it covers an area of about 15,000 square miles, but is not very produciive. 4. A fourtJi great coal field is situated in the States of K^n Micky, Indiana and Illionois. Its area is es- timated at 50 000 square miles. 5. The fifths and most western, occurs in i* vu, Missouri and Arkansas, and occupies an area of about 57.000 square miles. Besides these great deposits, coal is also found in New England, Kansas, Nebraska, and Texas. The aggregate space underlaid by the coal fields of North America amounts to at least 200,000 square miles, or to more 102 GEOLOGICAL ITEMS. than twenty times the area which includes all the known coal deposits of Europe. — Wells^ Geology. MISCELLANEOUS. The number of species of animals that now inhabit the globe is about 250,000. The number of fossil species of animals and plants cannot be reliably estimated, but it is safe to say that the number of the different exiinct species that have been found in fossil state exceeds many times the number of all the different species now living. Geologists claim four distinct periods or ages of the earth's history. Beginning at the oldest, they are called or named, First, the Azoic period, or period deficient of the evidence of life; Second, Paleozoic, or period of ancient life ; Third, the Mesozoic, or period of middle life; Fourth, or last period, called Oainozoic. This period includes the Post Tertiary, or recent system of rocks or period of recent life. A picture of the Azoic period has thus been imagined by Hugh Miller. "During the early part of the Azoic period we may imagine," he says, " a dark atmosphere of steam and va- por, which, for age after age conceals the face of the sun, and through wlich the moon or stars never penetrates; 0(;eans of thermal waters, heated in a thousand centers to the boiling point; low, half molten islands, dim through the fog and scarce more fixed than v/aves themselves, that heave and tremble under the impulsions of the igneous agencies ; roaring geysers that ever and anon throw up their intermittent jets of boiling fluid, vapor and thick steam, from these tremulous lands; and in the dim outskirts of the scene, the red gleam of fire sliot forth fropj yawning cracks and deep chasms. Such would be the probable state of things among the times of the earlier gneiss and mica chist deposits — times buried deep in that chaotic night which must have continued to exist for, ma}"" bap, many ages after that beginning of things in which God created the lieavens and the earth." At length, however, as the earth's surface gradually cooled down and the enveloping waters sunk to a lower temperature, let us suppose during the latter times of the mica schist and the earlier times of the clay slate, the steam atmosphere would become less dense and thick, and finally the rays of the sun would struggle through it; at first doubtful and diffused, form- GEOLOGICAL ITEMS. 103 Ing a faint twilight, but gradually strengthening, as the later ages of the slate formation passed away, until at the close of the great primary period day and night — the one still dim and grey, the other wrapped in the pall of darkness — would suc- ceed each other as now, as tho earth revolved on its axis. The number of active volcanoes on our globe are about 275 Humboldt suggests the idea that volcanoes are merely vents, located above some far extended subterranean cracker fissure in the crust of the earth, through which the molten matter of the interior escapes to the surface. The falls of Niagara are 150 feet in heigiit, and the average amount of water passing over each minute is estimated at j670,000 tons. This water, by its abrading power, :.as undoubt- edly excavated for itself the gorge or channel — seven miles long, 200 feet deep, and 1,200 to 2,000 feet wide-vvhich now intervenes between the falls and Lake Ontario. The minimum time required to wear through this space has been estimated by Sir Charles Ly ell, at 35,000 years.— WeWs Illustrated GeoL STRATIFIED ROCKS. The stratified rocks of Great Britain have been studied more than any other of the earth, and as the result of these investi- gations it has been found that the extinct mammalia, found in fossiliferous rocks, is more numerous by half than all the species now existing; and of molluscs, the fossil species nine times as numerous as the living species ; the fossil fish five times, the reptiles ten times, and the radiate fourteen times. The geologist finds no trace of that golden age of the world of which the poets delighted to sing, when all creatures lived together in peace, and wars and bloodshed were unknown. Ever since animal life began on our planet, there existed, in all departments of being, carniverous classes, wlio could not live but by the death of their neighbors ; and who were armed, in consequence, for their destruction, like the butcher with his axe and knife, and the angler with his hook and spear. In Europe, the caverns or caves that have been discovered, have contained the remains or skeletons of a great many of the different species of animals that now inhabit the earth, and of others that are now extinct. For instance, the bones and skeletons of the mammoth are found in great numbers; also of the raast.idon, the epoch of tho mastadon, in a geolog- ical sense, is very recent. Some think that th.e mammoths and mastadons did not become entirely extinct in this country until after the advent of man. Sir Charles Lyell is of the opinion that the period of the extinction of the mastadon, although recent, must have been many thousand year-s ago. PHILOSOPHY. No two particles of matter can occupy the same space at the same time. All bodies weigh heaviest at the earth's surface. A body that weighs 10 pounds at the earth's surface will weigh but 2^ pounds 4,000 miles high. Take two cog-wheels of the same size; let one stand still put the cogs together and put the other in motion, and when it has made one-half revolution around the standing wheel it will have made a full revolution on its own center, notwith- standiDg onlj'^ one-half of the cogs of its own surface has touched the standing wheel. The atmosphere is the lightest in wet, rainy weather ; yet we find people very often who think different. The medium pressure of the atmosphere is about fifteen pounds to the square inch, but this is not always the case. The pressure will vary in the same locality, and sometimes be greater or less. The medium hight that atmospheric pressure will raise water is about 33 feet ; but this calculation only holds good at the level of the sea, because as we ascend from the sea level the pressure becomes less; hence, our calculations for raising water by atmospheric pressure must be governed by the pres- sure that atmosphere has at the hight of the position above the sea level. Illustration : At sea level atmospheric pressure fifteen pounds to the square inch ; one mile above sea level, about 12-4- pounds; two miles above, 10 pounds ; three miles^ 7|- pounds ; consequently, on an elevation three miles high, water cannot be raised but about IG^ feet by the weight of the air. The top or upper part of a wagon wheel passes through a greater amount of space in a given time when running than the bottom ; or, in other words, runs the fastest. (104) PHILOSOPHY. 105 The piston rod of a steam engine makes two complete stops at every revolution of the crank attached to (he end of the pitman. UoKSE Power. — The avera;2;o power of a horse is sufficient to raise a weiglit of about 23,000 pounds one lb)t per miaute, but when calculating the horse power of a steam engine it is csti- tmated at 33,000 pounds. It then follows that a ten liorse j)Owers team engine is, in fact, about equal to fourteen average horses. Power of Steam. — One cubic foot of water converted into steam will raise the enormous weight of three and a half mil- lion pounds one foot, or seven hundred pounds one mile high. All bodies or particles of matter fail to the eath by the at- traction of gravity, and their speed is in proportion to their density; but take away the resisting force of the atmosphere, then a cork or feather will fall as fast as a bullet. Resultant motion may be illustrated by holding a ball or weight in your hand and dropping it from the top of your head while running, you will find that you cannot run fast enough to overtake the ball before it strikes the ground. A ball may be shot from a cannon from the top of a tower on a horizontal plain, and another dropped from the mouth of the cannon at the same time, and they will both strike the earth at the same time, provided the surface be horizontal with the cannon. Lever power is almo3t indispensable, or in other words, without it we could scarcely do anything; yet to take in con- sideration distance and speed, there is not a particle of power gained by a lever. Illustration : Suppose a lever L^O feet long, the fulcrum 2 feet from one end of the lever, 10 pounds on the long end of the lever is equal to 100 pounds on the short end ; but to raise the JOO pounds one foot the ten pounds passes through 10 feet of space, consequently it travels ten times as fast as the 100 pounds, so all that is gained in power is lost in speed and distance ; because if both ends of the lever was of the same length while one end of the lever was passing through ten feet of space the other end would pass through the same ten feet ; and ten pounds would raise ten pounds ten feet high, or ten times as high as the ten pounds on the long end of the lever would raist^ the 100 pounds on th • short end. SKETCHES OF ASTRONOMY. ORIGIN OF THE SOLAR SYSTEM Many theories have been propounded at different periods of the history of astronomy, respectijjg the original formation of our Solar System, as well as all other suns and systems, which it has pleased the great cREAToa of all things to call into existence, but no one has gained so great favor or excited so violent opposition, as the theory first proposed by Sir Wil- liam Herschel, and afterwards more especially applied by the •celebrated La Place to the formation of the solar system. This theory may bo thus stated :•— In the beginning all the matter composing the sun, jjlanets, and satellites was diffused through space, in a state of exceedingly minute division, the ultimate particles being held asunder by the repulsion of heat. In process of time, under the action of gravitation, th^ mass assumed a round or globular shape, and the particles tending to the centre of gravity, a motion of rotation on an axis would commence. The great mass, now gradually cool ing and condensing, must increase its rotary motion, thereby increasing the centrifugal force at the equator of the revolv- ing mass, until, finally, a ring of matter is actually detached from the equator, and is left revolving in space by the shrink- ing away from it, of the interior mass. If now we follow this isolated ring of matter, we find every reason to believe that its particles will gradually coalesce into a globular form, and in turn form satellites, as it was it&elf ibrmed. It is unneces- sary to pursue the reasoning further, for the same laws which produce one planet Irom the equator of the central revolving mass, may produce many — until finally, the process is ended by a partial solidification of the central mass, so great, that gravity aided by the attraction of cohesion, is more ihan suf- ficient to resist the action of tho centrifugal force, juid no fur- ther change occurs. ao6) SKETCHES OF ASTRONOMY. 107 It has been urged in lavor of this theory, that it accounts for the striking peculiarities wliich are found in the organiza- tion of the solar system. That the rings of Saturn are positive proofs of the truth of the theory, they having cooled and con- densed without breaking. That the individuals constituting a system thus produced, must revolve and rotate as do the planets and satellites, and in orbits of the precise figure and position, as those occupied by the planets. It accounts for the rotation of the sun on its axis, and presents a solution of the strange appearance connected with the sun called the Zodiacal Light. It goes further and accounts for the forma- tion of single, double, and multiple suns and stars — and by the remains of chaotic matter in the interstics between the stars, and which are finally drawn to some particular sun, whose in- fluence in the end preponderates, accounts for the comets which enter our system Irom every region in space. In support of this theory it has been urged that the comets, in their organization, presents us with specimens of this finely divided nebulous or chaotic matter — and that the telescope reveals cloudy patches of light of indefinite extent, scattered throughout space, which give evidence of being yet unformed and chaotic. That many stars are found in which the bright nucleus or centre is surrounded by a halo or haze of nebulous light, and that round nebulous bodies are seen with the teles- cope, of an extent vastly greater than would fill the entire space encircled by the enormous orbit of the planet La Verrier, or having a diameter greater than 7,000 millions of miles. Such are a few of the arguments in support of this most ex- traordinary theory. We now present the objections which have been most strongly insisted on. The retrogade motions of the satellites of Herschcl, and their great inclination to the plane of the ecliptic can not be accounted for by this theory. That computation shows that no atmosphere of con- densed nebulous matter can extend to so great a distance Ironi the sun, as does the matter composing the Zodiacal Light, and, finally, that the nel)ulous matter in the heavens will ulfi- mately he resolved into immense congeries and clusters of stars, whose great distance has hitherto defied the power of the best instruments. In reply to the first objection, the friends of the theory doubt 108 SKETCHES OP ASTRONOMY. the facts with reference to the satellites of Herschel. They reply that the matter composing the Zodiac^d Light being in the nature of cometary matter, is thrown to a greater distance from the sun than gravity would warrant, by that power resid- ing in the sun which is able on the approach of comets to project those enormous trains of light, which sometimes render them so wonderful. As to the last objection, it is urged that although many nebulas will doubtless be resolved into stars, by using more powerful telescopes, yet that these same teles- copes will reveal more new nebulae which cannot be resolved, than they will resolve — and as to the existence of nebulous matter, it is perfectly demonstrated by the physical organiza- tion of comets, and the existence of nebulous stars. Such was the state of the Astronomical argument, when Lord Rosse's Great Reflector was first applied to the explora- tion of the distant regions of space. In a religious point of view, this theory had excited no small amount of discussion, in consequence of its supposed Atheistical tendencies. The friends of the theory contend that it was no more Atheistical to admit the formation of the universe by law, than to acknowl- edge that it is now sustained by laws. Indeed since we must go to the first great cause for matter in its chaotic state, as well as for the laws which govern matter, that this theory gave to us a grander view of the omniscience and omnipotence of God than could be obtained from any other source. In fine, that it harmonized with the declaration of scripture, which tells us that "In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth, and the earth was iDith-out form and void^'' If the earth came into existence in its i^resent condition, then it had form and was nut void. Hence, this first grand declaration of the inspired writer must refer to the Ibrmation of the matter of which the heavens and earth were afterwards formed. Some went so far as to trace out dimly a lull account of this theory in the order of creation, as laid down in Gensis. Let us now proceed to the discoveries of Lord Ros«e, and their influence on this greatly disputed theory. The space penetrat- ing power of his six feet reflector is much greater than that of Sir William Herschel's great telescope, and it was anti- cipated that majiy nebulge which were unresolved into clusters of stars by Hershel, would yield under the greater power and light of Lord Rosse's telescope. This has proved to be the SKETCHES OF ASTRONOMY. 109 fact. Very many nebulas have been removed from their old places, and must hereafter figure among the clusters, while we are informed that many yet remain, even of the old nebulas, which def}^ the power of the monster telescope. The most remarkable object which has been resolved by Lord Rosse, is the great nebula in Orion, one of the most extraordinary objects in the heavens. Its size is enormous, and its figure very extraordinary. In certain parts adjoining the nebula the heavens are jet hlach, either from contrast or by the vacuity of these regions. Two immense spurs of light ar.- seen to project from the i^rincipal mass of the nebula, and to exlend to a most extraordinary distance. This will be better understood, by remembering that at the distance at which this nebula is removed from us, the entire diameter of the earth's orbit, 190 millions of miles, is an invisable point, less than one second, while this nebula extends to many thousands of times this distance, and more probabl}^ to many millions of times. Several stars have been found, and are visible on the nebula, but have hitherto been regarded as being between the eye of the observer and this remote object. Sir William Ilerschel was unable to resolve this mysterious body, and yet the nebula gave indications of being of the resolvable kind by its irreg- ular and curdled appearance under high powers. Several years since Dr. J. Lamont, of Munich, after a rigid scrutiny, of this nebula with his great Refractor, pronounced a portion of it to be composed of minute stellar points^ iin(i\)ve{\\ctQ(iii^ final perfect resolution into stars by greater power. This pre- diction has been fully verified, for Lord Rosse's great Reflector has solved the mystery, and filled this extraordinary object with the "jewelry of s'ars.'' But the question recurs, what have the defenders of the nebular theory lost, or its enemies gained by this interestmg discovery? We are all liable to reach conclusions too hastily, and to join issue on false points. If the nebular theory depen- ded for its existance upon the irresolvability of the nebula in Orion, then inuoed has the theory been entirely exploded. But this is not tlis fact. No one has asserted that the great nebula in Orion was nehuloiis matter^ and if it were not, then none existed. Such an issue would have been a false cne, had it been made. The theory has neither lost nor gained by the discoveries 110 SKETCHES OF ASIKONOMY. thus far made; what time may develope it is impossib'e lo say. In case certain data can be obtained, which appear 'o l)e accessible, tlieu indeed may we demonstrate its truth or lalpe hood, by mathematical investii^ation. Until then, the safer- plan is neither to adopt nor reject, but investigate until abso- lute triiih shall reward our long continued labor, and reveal the mystery of the organization cf that stupendous system, ot which our humble planet forms an insignificant part. — S/Uii/.^' Astronom//.

If they aio ena- bled to do this at any time, it will assist them in malung other important observations, as well as being of use on many occa- sions which occur in the life of every man. Many peroons have been lost in dipraiQ'ie or other unfrequented places, when if they had been able to have told the points of the compass they could have extricated themselves from their lost situa- tion. This may be done in a very easy manner. There is hardly a child of ten years of ago who cannot at any time of night point out the stars in the Great Bear which form what is called the Great Dipj^er. Now if an imaginary line be drawn through the two stars which Ibrm the front edge of the Dipper, from the bottom towards the top, and continued about 20 de- grees, it will pass very near the North Star — so near that it cannot be mistaken, there being no other stars of that magni- tude near it. It should be borne in mind that this rule holds good in whatever position the Dipper may be at the time. — SmitJi's Illustrated Astronomy. ECLIPSES. Eclipses are among the most interesting phenomena pre- sented to us by the heavenly bodies. In all ages, when an eclipse has taken place, it has excited the profound attention of the learned, and the fears and superstitions of the ignorant. The causes of eclipses before the seventeenth century were known only to a few, and they generally took advantage of this knowledge to impose upon the credulity of the ignorant by pretending that they were inspired by the Gods. Among the ancient nations, the Chaldeans were the foremost in their observations of the phenomena of the heavens ; perhaps this was owing in some measure to their occupation ; they being shepherds were obliged to watch their flocks by night to pro- tect them from the wild beasts which were at that time num- erous. Men under such circumstances would naturally be led to watch closely the movements of the heavenly bodies, and more especially so, for in the earlier periods of the world they had no correct mode of reckoning time in order to deter- mine the seasons or the proper seed time and harvest. Eclipses attracted the particular attention of the Chaldeans, 112 SKETCHES OF ASIRONOMY. and by a series of observations extended through several cen- turies, they discovered a very important fact relating to eclipses, although they did not understand the cause. By comparing the records which had been made for a great length of time, they found that a certain period of time elapsed between eclipses of the same kind and magnitude ; that is, if 18 years, 11 days, 7 hours and 43 minutes, were added to the time of the happening of any eclipse, it would show the time of the return of the same eclipse ; the only differences would be that it would not happen at the same time in the day and it would be a little greater or less than the previous eclipse — thus they were able to predict eclipses with sufficient accu- racy to answer their designs upon the ignorant without under- standing the laws by which these periodical returns were produced. To explain this briefly, it must be remembered that the moon's orbit makes an angle with the plane of the earth's or- bit of 5^ deg.; these two points where the moon's orbit cuts the plane of the earth's orbit, are called nodes. Now we will suppose that on any day at noon it is nev/ moon, and the moon is just 16 deg. from her descending node, the shadow of the moon would just touch the earth at the north pole ; in 223 lu- nations, or IS years, 11 days, 7 hours, 43 minutes thereafter, the moon would come nearly to the same position as it was at the beginning, consequently Ihere would be another small eclipse of the sun, and at the expiration af every 223 lunations it would return, and at each return the moon's shadow would pass across the earth a little more to the south until the eclipse had appeared about 77 times, when it would pass off at the south pole, occupying a period of 1,388 years : The same period would not commence again until the expiration of 12.- 492 j'^ears. Each eclipse which takes place during any year, be- longs to a separate and similar period. Those periods of eclipses which come in at the moon's ascending node, first come on to the earth at the south pole, and at each return the moon's shadow passes across the earth more to the north, and after appearing about 77 times, they finally leave the earth at the north pole. — Smithh Astronomy. SKETCHES OF ASTRONOMY. 113 IMMENSITY OF SPACE. Great is the immensity of space. Light travels at the rate of one hundred and ninety-two thousand miles per second and yet at this great speed it would take it over thirty million years to come from some of the far off nebulas to the earth. Some ideas of the immensity of space may be gathered by the calculation of the distance that light would travel in thirty millions of years, and then supposing that the distance ascer- tained by the calculation, was to the remaining distance as one drop of water is to the ocean. In all probability the most Xjowerful telescope has only brought to view a small portion of creation. The nearest fixed stars, according to the best astronomical calculation, 20,000,000,000,000 of miles from the earth. To assist the mind of the reader to get some idea of the immensity of this distance, I have taken the pains to make the following calculation: Suppose that when the Lord past sentence upon Cain for killing his brother, that Jie had banished him to the nearest fixed star, and had caused a whirlwind or some other power to have taken him at the rate of one thousand miles an hour day and night from that time till now, counting the time past six thousand years, at SCO days travel to the year, he would have traveled at the end of the six thousand years only one 0.80th iDart of the distance, and at the same rate of speed at the end of two million j-ears from this time he would not reach his destination, but would yet be one trillion three hun- dred and eighty-two billion four hundred million miles from his future home, or place of banishment. So you see that after two million and six thousand years travel at the enormous speed of one thousand miles an hour, leaves a distance yet untraveled equal to about fifty five million times the distance of Cook's voyage around the earth.

The number of Protestants of the world, according to the Btatistics of all nations, is about as follows : United States 33,000,000 Great Britain and Ireland 25,000,000 Asia and Armenia 5,000,000 British America and West Indies 4,000,000 France, Belgium and Holland 5,000,000 South America 1,500,000 Sweden, iSTorvvay and Denmark 7,600,000 Tho German Empire 25,000,000 Throughout the rest of the world 13,000,000 Total 121.000.000 Or about one in every fourteen of the inhabitants of the world are Protestants. Of this number there is about one in every four identified with or members of tho different Protestant churches of the world. It then follows that the entire membership of all the Protestant churches of the world amounts to one in fifty-six of the inhabitants. The number of Roman Catholics (approximately correct) is as follows: United States 3,500,000 Great Britain and Ireland 6,000,000 Eussia 7,200,000 South America 21,000,000 France 36,000,000 Austria and Venetia 28,000,000 Spain 17,000,000 Other parts of the world 60.000,000 Total 200,900,000 Pagans, or those who worshipped idols, or created things or beings^ they number near three-fourths of the entire inhabitants of the earth. They number at present about 1,000,000,000. This includes the Moham- medans, the Buddhists and the Mormons, or Latter Day Saints. Of this number there is to be found in the United States, of Mormons, 75,000. And strange as it may seem, we have about 60,000 Heathen idol worship- (115) 116 RElilGIOUS. pers, who have began erecting their temples on American soil.

DIEECTOEY OF IIEXDRICKS COLWTY. 18 7 4 A HISTORICAL SKETCH OF HE]^DEICKS COUNTY, Hendricks County is near the centre of the State of Indiana, and is bounded on the north by Boone county, on the east by Marion, on the south b}' Morgan, and on the west by Putnam and Montgomery. It contains about 420 square miles, or near one hundred and thirty-five thousand acres of land. The county was organized in the year 1824; it was named in honor of r)ne of Indiana's noble Governors, William Hendricks, the sec- ond Governor of the State. The surface of the county is generally level or slightly rolling ; there is but very little of the county but what can be cultivated. There is some broken land on the creeks or streams that run through the the county, but it can all, or abouc all, be made profitable for grazing and stock-raising. The timber of the county is of very fine quality and of great abundance, especially in the northern part of the county, where staves are shipped by the hundred thousand, and saw logs by the hundred. The county is watered by Eel River, Mill Creek, Mud Creek, White Lick Creek, and their tributaries. Eel River runs through the north-west part of the county, Mill Creek the south-west. Mud Creek the south, ami White Lick the east. The soil is generally of fine quality and well adapted to the raising of wheat, rye, oats, barley and Indian corn ; roots and vegetables are grown in abundance ; blue grass and other grasses grow spon- taneously, thereby making this one of the best stock-raising counties in the State. Almost all kinds of fruit raised in this climate do well here, and fruit-raisers receive profitable returns. 132 DIRECTORY OF HENDRICKS COUNTY. The first settlers emigrated fi-om North Carolina to this county about the year i8i8, and settled on Government lands prior to entry. The first land entered in the county was entered in July, 1 82 1, about three years before the organization of the county. The first settlements were made in the south-east part of the county, in what is now called Liberty and Gilford townships. Some of the first settlers were David Downs, Ross Nichols, Richard Christie, George and David Matlock, Wm. Ballard, Jonathan Rodgers, James Thompson, Thomas Hadley, Josiah Tomlinson, John Bryant, and Thomas Lockhart. After the organization of the county, in the year 1824, the three first County Commissioners, Thomas Lockhart, Gideon Willson and Littlebery Blackley, met in council and divided the county into four townships. They made arrangements for the sale of lots in Danville, the county seat, and ordered elections for a Justice of the Peace to be elected in each township, and appointed the necessary township officers. And right here let me say, that notwithstanding Thomas Lockhart was of sufficient age to be one of Hendricks county's first Commissioners, he is yet a citizen of the county, acting in the capacity as minister of the Gospel for the Christian Church. He has lived to see the county reared from poverty to wealth — from a howling wilder- ness, inhabited by the wild beasts of the forest, to one of the best improved counties in the State, populated by over twenty thous- and intelligent. Christian people. Long may he wave ! The first Clerk of the county was Levi Jessup, who did all the Ijusiness of the county as Clerk, Recorder and Collector, and was succeeded in office by Simon T. Hadley. The names of those who have since held the position of Clerk of the county are James M. Gregg, Joshua D. Parker, John Irons, Levi Ritter, N, T. Hadley and Lotan Jinkens. The first Sheriff of the county was Thos. J. Matlock ; the first Prosecuting Attorney, Harvey Gregg. The first marriage license issued in the county was issued to James Renolds and Rachel Demoss, who were joined in marriage on the 17th day of No- vember, 1824, by Samuel Jessup, Justice of the Peace. The first white male child born in the county was Thomas Nichols, son of Ross Nichols. The first Circuit Court held in the county was DIRECTORY OP HENDRICKS COUNTY. lo3 held at the residence of Wm. Ballard, about one-half mile south- east of Bellville, on a farm now owned by John T. Hamrick. W. W. Wick was Circuit Judge, Nathan Hick and James Doun- ard were Associate Judges. The only private room that could be found for the grand jury at that time was a dry spot in the forest where they could be seated on a log. But I presume that nothing intruded on their privacy to startle or molest them, ex- cept the occasional wa-oo of the owl, the croak of the bullfrog, or hiss of the rattlesnake. The first Representative of the county was Lewis Mastin, his successor Col. Thomas Nichols. Col. C. C. Nave may possibly remember that others were elected to the office of Representative of the county prior to his election for the same, but can not re- member that the county was ever represented until he did it. The first school taught in the county was taught by Wesley McCinley, at Danville, in the year 1824. The first church organ- ized in the county was the regular Baptist Church, at Danville- The first steam sawmill in the county was built at Old Spring- town, in Clay township, by Mr. Cofifen. The first steam woolen mill in the county was built in Danville b}' Wm. C. Cline, who afterwards attached a gristmill, and was burnt out in the year 1 85 2. Said Cline thinks the first cook stove used in the county was bought by him in 1840. The first dry goods merchant in the county was James L. Givan, who located at Danville in a very early day, and sold goods for a long period in Danville. Mr. Givan is still living, but is not now a resident of the county. We will now go back to the first settling of the county, and see how rapid she h-^s advanced in population, wealth and im- provements. About the year 18 18 the first white man settled on her soil, and felled the first timber to build the first log cabin on her territory. In 1824 the territory of the county had in- creased in population to a sufficient number to become necessa- ry for an organization of the county, with a population of about 1,000. For the next six years emigration kept rapidl)- flowing in from the States of North Carolina, Kentucky and other States of the Union, until in 1830 her population had increa.sed to 3,975; in 1840 to 11.264; in 1850 to 14,083; in i860 to 134 DIKtCTOKY OF HENDRICKS COUNIY. 16,963, and in 1870 to 20,277. Her vote has increased at the same ratio of the population ; her improvements and weahh have more than kept pace ^\'ith her increase in number, and her four townships have been subdivided into twelve. Her post offices have increased to the number of twenty. Her old Court House is no more, but instead she has erected one of the finest buildings in the State. Her old log jail has vanished, and made room for the building of a home for the Sheriff and a place of security for her convicts, which has been done at a cost of ;$40,ooo. Her two-roomed poor house has been exchanged for a fine, beautiful and expensive asylum, which is an honor to the county and a comfort to the destitute. Her two or three log school houses are gone, but in their stead she has over one hundred fine brick and frame buildings, at a cost of over ;^ 100,000. Her mud roads are being graveled and turnpiked. Her immense forests have been hewn down by the ax of the settler, and fine improved farms have taken their place. Her eight or ten log cabins have grown to be mansions and nice dwellings or beautiful homes for her citizens. Her straw-cov- ered rail pens, used for the sheltering of stock, have about gone out of existence, and fine barns are supplying their places. The wild beasts of the forests have been slaughtered and driven from her borders, and the serpent and reptile have been killed and destroyed until there are but few to be found. The settler no longer stands guard as sentinel to drive the wolf and bear from his cabin. Then the howl of the wolf the settler cotild hear, There were bears, wild cats and varmints ; There were scorpions, lizards and serpents to fear, To frighten a man out of his garments. Now tlie wolf liowl no moi'e do we hear, The bhick bear is not here to roam. Now no lii.ss of the serpent to create in us fear, No varmints molesting our home. But for fear that some one may think that the writer has snakes in his boots, we will stop here and take a look at the present wealth and resources of the county. She now has 130,000 acres of improved land, valued at over ;^ 12,000,000. She has seven thousand five hundred and fifty (7,550) head of DIRECTORY OF HENDRICKS COUNTY. 135 horses, one thousand one hundred and seventy-six (1,176) head of mules and asses, five thousand four hundred and ninety-two (5,492) milch cows, two hundred and twenty-one (221) work- oxen, twenty-one thousand four hundred and sixty (21,460) head of sheep, and between thirty and forty thousand head of swine. The total estimated value of all live stock is one mil- lion six hundred and forty-five thousand seven hundred and one dollars. The statistics of 1870 show that she produced in that year three hundred and seventy-six thousand nine hundred and ninety-two (376,992) bushels of winter wheat, two thousand three hundred and nineteen (2,319) bushels of rye, nine hun- dred and seventy-five thousand eight hundred and twenty-five (975,825) bushels of corn, fifty-three thousand five hundred (53,500) bushels of oats, seventy thousand two hundred and thirty-three (70,233) pounds of wool, two hundrecl and eighteen thousand five hundred and twenty-six (218,526) pounds of but- ter, and over twelve thousand tons of hay. The total estimated value of all farm productions is one million seven hundred and twenty-two thousand eight hundred and thirty-two dollars ($i,- 722,832). She has one hundred and sixty-six manufacturing establishments, consisting of flouring mills, woolen mills, saw mills, stave factories, carriage factory, broom factories, furniture manufactories, etc. She has forty-two steam engines and one water wheel. There are now four railroads in the county, three of them span the entire county from its eastern to western boun- dary ; the Indianapolis, Bloomington & Western Railroad cross- ing her northern border, the Indianapolis & St. Louis the cen- ter, the Terre Haute, Vandalia & St. Louis near the south, while the Indianapolis & Vincennes crosses the south-east corner, whereby travel is made convenient and speedy, and good mar- ket at home for all her surplus. In 1870 the assessed value of all the taxable property in the county was eleven million four hundred and ninety-nine thous- and one hundred and seventy-two dollars (;^ 11,499, 172); the true value is over twenty million dollars (;^20,ooo,ooo). The amount of all taxes for the year 1870 was one hundred and fifty-seven thousand five hundred and fifty-seven dollars (^157,557), which is divided as follows : Fifty-four thousand four hundred and 136 DIRECTORY OF HENDRICKS COUNTY. fifty-six dollars (;^54,456) is for township and corporation taxes ; fifty-two thousand four hundred and twelve dollars (^52,412) for county, and the balance, which is fifty thousand six hundred and seventy-nine dollars (^50,679), is for State purposes. The public debt of the county the same year amounted to thirty- eight thousand one hundred and fourteen dollars. All things considered, her financial standing will compare favorably with the best counties of the State. Her citizens as a class are indus- trious, honest and temperate ; there is not a licensed saloon in the county, nor has not been for a number of years. In every town and village, and at almost every cross road, her church spires are to be seen, telling the beholder that this is a liberal, intelligent and church-attending people. BROWN TOWNSHIP. Brown Township is situated in the north-cast corner of the County and is bounded as follows : On the north by Boone county ; on the east by Marion ; on the south by Lincoln town- ship, and on the West by Middle, and contains an area of twen- ty-four square miles. The surface of the Township is generally level, and the eastern portion wet. The soil is rich and where drained is very productive. It is watered by the east branch of White Lick creek and School branch. This was one of the last settled townships in the county, but is rapidly filling up. The present population is 1233. The eastern portion of the Town- ship is principally settled by emigrants from Ireland, who seem to be honest, economizing and industrious, with more wit and less education than any other people that I have found in the County ; although some of them have good educations, and all seem de- termined to educate their children and are giving them the ben- efit of the public schools. The Township is well supplied with timber, and at present there are great quantities of staves and saw-logs being shipped to other markets. Her school privile- ges are good and education is advancing. CHURCH AND SCHOOL STATIST [CS. Macadona M. E. Church, five miles east of Brownsburg. Membership 40. Value of property, $800.

The early settlements of this part of the county were made between the years 1825 and 1831, and among those who should be held in grateful remembrance by posterity for undergoing the privations and hardships of pioneer life, might be mentioned the names of George C. Brightman, Josiah Bryant. Caleb Johnson, Obadiah Tincher, George Tincher, Nicholas Osborn, William Benbow, Newby Hunt, Jesse Hodson, John Cosner, George Hancock, John Moon. William Thomas, Thomas Ray, and Abraham West. ORGANIZATION. By an act of the Board of County Commissioners, March 3, 1845 > Clay township was organized into a separate incorporation, and was taken from the townships of Franklin and Marion, and contains very nearly twenty-four square miles. The County Commissioners at this time were, Gudlow Walker, Ebenezer L. Watson and Simon Hornaday. IMPROVEMENTS There are about ten miles of railroad track extending through the township; three miles of the Indianapolis and St. Louis line, valued by the appraisement of 1873 at ;^50,4io, and about seven miles of the Terre Haute and Indianapolis, valued at $120,115. Total value of railroad property $1 70, 525. ' And under the same assessment the value of real estate and personal property in the tow.isliip was $843,621, making a total of $1,014,246. It will therefore appear that the railroad incorporations are liable for the payment of about 17 per cent, of the burden of taxation. V I'OPLTLATION. By the census of 1870 there were 1568 persons in the town- ship, and the population October 1873, was 1658. That of Coatsville 340, and Amo 280.

Eel River Township i.'^ situated in the north west corner of Hendricks county. It is bounded on the north by Boone county, on the east by Union and Centre townships, on the south by Marion township, and on the west by Putnam and Montgomery counties. It contains an area of about 42 square miles. The surface of the township is more or less broken, but there is no waste land in the township. It is watered b)- the waters of Eel river, and almost every farm is supplied with a never failing spring, or spring branch- Her soil in the bottoms is a rich black loam, and very profitable for corn. Her uplands are not so rich, but very profitable for stock raising. This was the third township in the county to be settled. Some of the first settlers of this township were Noah Bateman, John S. Woodward and Reuben Claypoole. Said Bateman and Wood- ward are both living, and yet make their home on i'>el river soil. For the last few years this township has advanced rapidly in wealth, improvement, morality and intelligence. Her [^resent population is about 1700. Her church and schc^ol privileges are good, and morality and education are on the advance. North Salem, the only town in the township is situated a lit- tle south of the center. This is a nicel)- located village about eight miles north-west of Danville. Its population is about 300 ; the inhabitants are sociable and industrious. Its business and trading men are numerous and lively. There are three hotels here ; all seem to be doing a good business. I know by expe- rience that Mrs. Fluce can get up a good square meal.

Franklin township is situated in the southwest corner of the county, and is bounded as follows : On the north b}- Clay township, on the east by Gilford, on the south by Morgan county, and on the west by Putnam, and contains an area of 29 square miles. The surface of the township lays well for cultiva- tion, being" principally level or slightly rolling. The soil is a good average for the county, timber and water plenty, and of good quality. The model farm of Hendricks county is in this township. This farm is the property of Jehue Hadley, and is well known to the most of the old settlers of this county, it being the farm whereon the old settlers hold their yearly meet- ihg. Since the last old settler's meeting Mr. Hadley has made some very fine improvements, especially his fish ponds, which are very beautiful, ornamental and useful. Stilesville, the voting precinct of this townshii). is a ver}^ nice thriving business town, located on the National road, about twenty-six miles west of Indianapolis and eleven miles south- west of Danville, and contains about three hundred inhabitants, who are noted for their musical talent and good singing. The improvements of the place have been considerable during the last year ; they have erected some very nice fine business rooms, and one of the best Masonic halls in the count}'. The corporation has been liberal in applying gravel to the streets and sidewalks, and for other general improvements. The school and church priveleges are good.

Rep. Christian, GILFORD TOWNSHIP. Gilford township is situated in the southeast corner of Hen- dricks county, and is bounded as follows : On the east by Marion county, on the south by Morgan, on the west by Lib- erty township, and on the north by Washington. This was the first settled township in the count}^ A few of the old pioneer settlers that we should hold in remembrance are, David Carter, Eleazier Bates, George Moore, Noah Kellum, Robert McCrack- en, Jesse Hackett, George Moon, Thomas Lockhart, David, Asa and Joel Ballard, Elias Hadley, Josiah Tomlinson and the families of Hollingsworth's and Lowder's. The above named parties were all settlers of what is now Gilford township before the county was organized, and some of them are yet living and residents of the township. The surface of the township is generally rolling, the soil is of very fine quality, and a plentiful supply of gravel for making good roads, and timber of sufficient quantity for all necessary purposes. The township is watered by the East, West and Middle Forks of White Lick Creek, thereby making this the best watered township in the county, almost every farm being well supplied with stock water. Its rolling surface, sandy soil and bountiful supply of stock water makes this rather the most inviting township in the county to the stock raiser. The trading point and voting precinct of the township is Plainfield. This is a nice, enterprising, business place, located on the National road and on the St. Louis & Vandalia railroad, 14 miles we.st of Indianapolis, and contains a population of about 800 inhabitants. This place is noted for its quiet, orderly citizens, morality and ^temperance. The Society of Friends have erected a fine, large church here, and the members of the Society from all parts of the State meet here annually to hold their Yearly Meetings. As Jerusalem v^^as to the Jews of Pal- estine in the days of its prosperity, so is Plainfield to the Society DIRECTORY OF HENDRICKS COUNTY. 267 of Friends of the State ; or in otlier words, Plainficld is the Jerusalem of Indiana. The Indiana House of Refuge is located on the State farm ad- joining Plainfield on the south, and from all appearances it seems to be doing a good work for the benefit of the boys who are inmates of the institution. This institution is under the supervision of Frank B. Ainsworth as general superintendent, and C. W. Ainsworth, assistant. They keep everything in good order, they are kind to the boys, and are clever and affable with a stranger. The Reform School Record is published by them. This is a paper of considerable interest, at 50 cents per annum. CHURCH, LODGE AND SCHOOL STATLSTICS.

Liberty Township, in the south part of the county, is bounded on the north by Centre and Washington townships, on the east by Gilford, on the south by Morgan county, and on the west by Frankhn and Clay townships. It contains an area of about 48 square miles, and is the largest township in the county. The surface is generally level or slightly rolling, her soil is rich and productive, and is watered by Mud Creek and White Lick. Mud Creek flows through the west and southwest, while White Lick crosses the northeast corner. This was one of the first settled townships in the county, a brief history of which is given in the historical sketch of the county. The present population of the township is about 25,000. Her church and school privileges are rather better than an average of the county, and her gravel roads and public improvements speak well for the enterprise of her citizens. She is well sup- plied with towns and post offices, namely : First, Bellville, the voting precinct of the township, situated on the National road, 18 miles west of Indianapolis, and about six miles south, and and I J east from Danville, containing a population of 264. This is the oldest town in the county. Cartersburgh, a nice little village of about 200 inhabitants, located on the Terre Haute, Vandalia & St. Louis Railroad, five miles southwest of Danville, 17 miles west of Indianapolis, and one half mile south of the Medical Springs. Center Valley, a post office situated on the Bellville and Monrovia gravel road, 2J miles south of Bellville. Clayton, a thriving little town five miles south of Danville, on the Terre Haute, Vandalia & St. Louis Railroad, with a popnlation of about 350, noted for its number of neat churches, gravel road privileges, and enterprising inhabitants.

Lincoln Township, located on the east side of the county, contains an area of 24 square miles, and is bounded as follows : On the east by Marion county, on the south by Washington township, on the west by Middle, and on the north by Brown and Middle. The surface is generally rolling, and on the west and southwest are a few bluffs and brakes of White Lick Creek. The soil is rich, and timber of the best quality in abundance. The township is well watered by White Lick, School Branch and other small but never failing spring branches. She has a good supply of gravel for making good roads, and her roads in many places indicate that it is being freely applied. The pres- ent population of the township is about 1,580. The population as shown by the statistics of 1870, is 1,502. Her only town is Brownsburg, located on the I., B. & W. railroad, about 14 miles northwest of Indianapolis For improvements, enterprise and business, Brownsburg is not surpassed in the county. Her school privileges are good, and her four neat churches speak well for the liberality and morality of her people. The census of 1870 shows her population to be 550, which has increased to over 600. The only Catholic Church in the county is located here, with a membership of about 500, mostly residents of Brown township. CHURCH, LODGE AND SCHOOL 8TATLSTICS.

Middle township is located in the north part of the county, and is bounded on the east by Brown and Lincoln townships, on the south by Washington, on the west by Centre and Union, and on the north by Boone county; and contains an area of about 31 square miles. The surface is generally level, and lays well for cultivation. The soil is of fine quality and well adapted to the growing of corn. The timber is of the best varieties, and of great abundance. This was one of the last townships in the county to be settled, but her improvements show that her citizens have been of the go-ahead stripe, and wide awake. Pittsboro is the only town in the township. This is a nice en- terprising little village, located on the I. B. & VV. Railroad, about seventeen miles northwest of Indianapolis, and about nine miles, nearly in a northeast direction from Danville, and con- tains about 250 inhabitants. It is surprising to see the amount of business that is done here for so small a place. The motto of the citizens of Pittsboro seems to be, " Drive busi- ness ; " and from the ring of the anvils, the hum of the mills, and the clatter of the stave factory, one would think that they were living up to their motto.

Union Township is situated in the north part of Hendricks county, and is bounded as follows : Cn the east by Middle township ; on the south by Centre ; on the west by Eel River and on the north by Boone county, and contains an area of twenty-three square miles. The surface of the township is level and lies well for cultivation, and the soil is rich and productive. The timber is of good quality and there is plenty of it, especial- ly the oak, which is very fine and valuable. This township is one of the best in the county for corn raising. There are por- tions of the township that are naturally wet and swampy, but where drained and ditched it is dry and productive : in fact some of the richest and driest farms in the township were twenty-five years ago considered swamp land. The citizens are generall)' industrious, hospitable and intelligent. Lizton, a small village near the center of the township, is located on the I., B. & W. railroad, about twenty-three miles north-west of Indianapolis and nine miles north of Danville, and is quite an enterprising business point.
