THURSDAY NOVEMBER, 2, 1871. [
1 t
Official Paper of the State and County, c
c
Largest C:rcr!r.t;cn in the- Canty. (
There b one Ice son to be learned by the '
great Chicago fire which is almost sure to j
be overlooked. These are fast und hasty ]
days. The American nation are a fast I
and haaty people. A'mrst everything is s
sacrificed to speed. Above all things we 1
v
make haste to accumulate property. "We
set an over-weening value unm property. <:
That which property can procure is over- '
valued, and we hasten for a fast and lux- a
?
urious style ofliving. So most all people
live beyond their means. A9 property is (
too much the standard of one's position j
in society, if we can live, as if on a basis
* * - ' 1 ? ? -? ? /N <-* r?-? s\ C
?r property, we nope 10 acquire me muv
consideration anions our fellows.
I
So health, rest, education, culture, sei
ti
curity, the enjoyment of life, not to say 0
virtue lisJf are too often sacrificed to has- u
ten on mere accumulation of money. Es- I
pecially is this true in a young and grow
ing country like the West.
All capital which is not put to the actual ?
accumulation of itself is luld as dead cap- n
ital, so the incidents necessary to one's <1
business are made as hastiiy and as cheap- v'
ly as possible. Houses arc made of wood j
for speed and economy, sidewalks and vv
pavements follow the same rule. Streets e
are laid out on the natural level of the ?
ground to be raised and graded by and by. '
Everything, in short, mnst conspire to the |
great end, viz : be a man of wealth in the j;
ah or test possible time. c.
But one cannot go on contrary to the n'
natural course of IhiDgs without nature
having somethiug to soy about it. The .
? 11
time of reckoning is sure to come. Para- s]
lysis seizes upon the over-strained nervous w
system and brings about an enforced rest. 1(1
Apoplexy swoops down upon the brain
and snuffs out life without warning. ^
The love of wealth or the show of wealth ,j
and the position it gives in society, over- tl
comes the moral principles, and cmtx zzlcmentand
fraud obtains what we cannot ll
p
wait for, and exposure a:.d ruin are sure
sooner or later to follow, with suicide or
the prison. A railroad bridge gives way or
a trainfi.ilstobe signalized from false tconr??.
fVio tnmc ri'flsnn steam boilers

are not properly inspected or attended, 11
and huudreds of hunuu beings sink into
their graves without warning, in one terrible
holocaust. And now comes Chicago.
The lire fiend seizes upon those woolen w
structures, built in the haste to get rich, v
now that his S"t time has come, and in ,7
horrible delight at the prey before him,
presses the wind iuto his service and leaps
from house to house, from block to block, ii
from street to street, and with terrible fa- 1
ry licks up with his tongue of il imc, stone
brick, mortar,?the very dust of the city
and the business part of the city is no t
more. The lire seems to seek the hast}',
fast, feverish buthtf xs part of the city as its 1
legitimate prey. That consumed and the
(J
fire fiend withdraws.
And so it is through all the rami lie a- t
tions of American life. We despise the t
solid foundations ; we cannot wait to lay :|
I
them; they cost too much; we must rush
I t
* * ? i i* i: r. \
oil 10 me srreai eim 01 mi-, a;m no f
enjoyments. We cauuot afford to obtain
the education and mental discipline which j
a first-class college gives, and so "torn- 1
mcrcial schools'' and "collegiate iasti- '
tutes'' spring up over all the land, to ! l
gloss us over with a brilliant vani sh, and i
this gives the direction to the entire life of *
a 1 ;rgc number of our young men. So that '
we can itach and enjoy the sp-;<"'> nothing
vise is of any importance, it has corrupted 1 j
i'
not only our commercial life, but our en j1
lire political life is rotten with it,posi-||
Irons in public oiliee being bought and
used for the sole purpose of pelf. J a
And death and destruction in their va- v
rious forms are constantly following up (
his unreasonable and unnatural course, *
tnd still we take no heed, but take posi- ^
lions and wealth and life itself by violence <r
tnd must always suffer from the re action il
which violence always begets.

Mr. Editor.?The readers of your excel- ].
ent journal were much surprised, not to say (]
>aincd to read therein the artiede which ap- : f
reared a few is ties since, approving of the {}
.'ffort now being made anew, for the release | c
md pardon of tlic two criminals recently j j
onvicted of fraud in the performance of; f
heir official duties as Election Commissionirs
in this Count)'. These men were convict- w
"1 fairly hy a jury of their peers after a ]>aient
trial in the U. S. C >urt. They were , [
entcneed to a very mild punishment?im- ' p
>ri<onment two y ars and payment of costs 0
n 1 a small fine. Everybody knows they ry
lave be1 n only nonutuilly in jail ever since, (5
>cing trente 1 rather as quests than prisoners. u
Everybody knows the effort for their release t(
0 desperately made, is solely made by the n
oiitieal ring by which they came into office, | ^
rhich ring possesses, whether individually ! jj
?r iu the aggregate, neither honesty nor lion- 1 t]
ir. nor shame, nor truthfulness, nor fear of j,
}od, man or devil; whose whole code of mor- J p
1 law, of right an l wrong, of justice, and {j
(juity, of political or any other principle, is ^
inbraecd in two words?my pocket; who are j
. perfect reflection, so far as brains will ad- 1 tj
nit, of the Tammany thieves of New York.
Everybody knows if they are allowed to 0
ome back here as the result of a pardon,
t will he held to be a triumph of the same
uiblic plunderers, that they will come back p
launting their insufferable impudence in ev- jr
ry decent man's face ; that thev will be imnediately
foisted into some public office to
ie suckled by our already overburdened tax- ;1]
.m./tw r?nii?itv n.mcr will fall to a still i,
ViOj VKUV I - !'
)\ver level; that a premium will be put on tc
ascality, and a wet blanket on the honest c<
mbition and aspirations of all decent n;
ion, and that the ltcpublican party will be j)(
ragged down into the same dirty slough ()j
here these creatures wallow?and last, w
liough by no means least, the colored popuition,
slowly rising to ]>olitical morality and C(
ortli at the point indicated by the unholy w
xample. Everybody, and particularly men (jj
f small moral development, measure crime p.
v the punishment. These men committed ]>
ne of the greatest crimes that possibly could f;,
e committed in its bearings upon the pub- ]!(
c safety, in this that they are robbers of c,f
ur rights as freemen, and such deeds cared
out make slaves of us all, and trans- e)
>rms the robbers with our master. Such tl
icn never ought to be pardoned into rceeivig
their rights as freemen again. They
ion hi stand as political felons?dead fbrt'er.
Excuse, me, Mr. Editor, for this long 1
Hun?1 could not well say less. I am con- 1
dent I represent a majority of our citizens ai
i these opinions, and we feel very deeply
limit the matter. Hoping that we may not

NLY TWO ML'ItPITRS?A SOLEMN PECLAUATION.
Since the last sitting of the Court, wo
ave only heard of two murders cominitcd
i the county by white persons; one was
ununited in a personal quarrel about : me
roperty, and the murderer immcdiatly ed
nd has not yet been arrested; a true bill
as been found against him at this term
srm for the offence. The other murder was
mimitted by four white persons, in the
ight time, undisguised; the two Colored (
ersons that saw them did not know any
' them, and it is not known for what he
as murdered.
We, the grand jurors, upon our oaths, arc
impelled to say. from the testimony which :

iflferent parts of the county, tint the allc

cated by the sheriff and jailor. We did >t
have the opportunity of seeing the pris" i

Til K AlCUKSTS IN YOltlZ.
We take from the Yorkville Eii</nt'rcr, of
le 1'iitli instant, the following account of
?e action of the military authorities under j
le proclamation suspending the privilegeof |
io writ of Jt'ilxits corpus:
On Thursday last. the military authorities j
t this place commenced making arrests,
cveral citizens of the town were arrested
hile in the pursuit of their avocations, and
lany ]iorsons from the country, while in
?wn on business, were also detained and
dyed in prison.
About the same hour that the arrests
iininicnced in town the military began to
iove, squadrons and cavalry marching out
i various directions, lor the purpose of ari
estiiiir those in tlie c unty again-t whom ac- !
usatroiis have been made. for violations of
lie "Ku-Klux" ami "enforcement" acts of
'ontrress. (hi Friday, Saturday.?and Sunay
squadrons of soldiers were returninir at
11 lcuirs, having in their custody citizens of
iie country, enihraeini; men in all stations,
ml occasionally anionirst the numher would
e found a neirro, of which class live are
iow under arrest.
I he toi;ii number now in jaii at this ]-iaw.
I
is seventy-nine, of whom two arc negroes
and confined in the guardhouse at the mil
try camp are al.o three negroes?Thai
Archer and Reuben (Joins, of the town, an
Samuel Simril, of the county.
It may be proper here to state that ever
few arrests have been ma le after night, th
larger number having been made in the da
time, and, so far as we have been able f
learn, no show of resistance to authorit
has been made. As may well be supposed
the jail is very much crowded, in con*
quence of which the prison accommodatioi
arc being increased b;* fitting the second sti
ry of the building for that purpose. The]
s no disposition on the part of the officia
.in charge to treat the prisoners with undi
'harshness, and we have been requested 1
some of the prisoners to say that their trea
meat has been us kind and as mild as the
could expect.

the Grand Jury reports but a few actua
cases, and denies entirely the charge
made in the proclamation of the Presi

imbecility seems to have been reache
when the Executive appealed to the gene
nil government for aid to suppress a pu<
rile insurrection which he confesses is nc
in his power to subdue. We do not be
lieve that any real causes exist for sostrir
gent a measure. The suspension of th
habeas corpus in a time of profound peac

be resorted to only in the extremest nc
