D..t .MIm at Tam Hwwii K f! gov ififpiilS . I CHlNl UCkSiand Secretary At the ratification meeting, .or something of the kind, held at In (linnaiMjis I oinftt&ay' night last Mr.TlEif Dii7ids')rr4 to te present itiiilinaiea UhWtVpelch ii which it was expected ho would signify whether he would accept the nom ination of the' Chicago Convention fdr Tice-President'or hot This in Sfoolf mniti if an imnnrfcant, mAtinc UOVII UU,UW aauv vw O in the ejes of all political watch men, hence anything done or eaid at that meeting would be brought to the notice of more j persons than uny similar meeting that has or will be held during the campaign. Gov, Hendeicks was present, made a short speech, not only sig nifying an acceptance of the nom-i ination. but laying down some of the' purposes of the campaign and the civil service of the government. A3 was most natural uv auuuvu iu the investigation of fraud in the Medical NBureaii of i the NavalDe partment and quoted the evidence given before the investigating pom mitteo by Secretary Chandler him self. Nothing' could be fairer than to give the , administration the benefit of he, sworn testimony of the bad of the department in which the fraud had been committed. If anyone conld paliate it he certainly could.i but Secretary1 Chandler thought it lacking in "decent fair ness and thrust a fulsome letter to OoVv Hehdbicks before the public by means of the T,AflsociafM7Press, to which Gov. Hendeicks penned the following reply: i 4 Ixdianapolis, July 14, '84. Hon. W. E. Chandler: 4 J ? . Sir: I find in the newspapers this morning a letter to me from yourself, written yesterday, !" and circulated through the Associated Press. You complain that I did you injustice in an address to the people of this city, made the eve ning before. In that address I urged , that "we need to have the books' in - the- Government office opened for : examination,'!; arid as an illustration I cited the case of a fraudulent voucher in one of the bureaus of your department, and stated that upon your testimony before a sub-committee of the Sen ate it appeared that the frauds amounted to $03,000; and is not every, word of that true! You w,ere brought before'-the committee and testified as I stated. You admitted under oath that the sum of money lost amounted to $03,000, but your defence was that the embellzement did not wholly occur under your ad ministration, but that a part of it was under that of your predecessor. It seems to have covered the period from June ? 21, 1880, down to January .n 25, 1884. Docs X that help your ; case! You were were at the bead of the department a vear and nine months of that period, and your predecessor about one year ana ten montns.r ue was in office at the payment of the first f .!.jo voucher, on June 21, 1880, and j to April 17, 1882, when you came : ?, and you ihere'connnuea until ' ' a last false voucher was paid, a. Ii5, 188'4 The period was al- t equally divided between your f and your predecessor, How ill of the $63,000 was paid out ' ' r yourself and how much under r i reuecessor your letter does . i ' ow. Uut, sir, upon the ques i ' -:,t I was discnss'ng, does it 5 r ry C. ..rence who was Secre tary when tbo fal !e vouchers were paid! 1 urged tl.at iu cases like this, when fraud.- are coucocted in the vaults or, in the' oooks of the'de. partment, the only remedy of the people is by a , change of the oon-1 troi, so tliat tbe Dooks and vouchers shall come under the examination of new and disinterested men. Do' you think I am answered when yon say I was mistaken in supposing tnat in His case tbe frauds were nil under your administration, when, in." fact, a part Of them extended back into that of your predecessors! Why,; jsuv that, makes your case worse; . For the Bureau of Medicine and Surgery j the.' defalcation is largo, but tbe more ' serious fact is that it could and did extend through two administrations of tbe depart ment, a period of nearly four years, without detection. But it becomes more serious, so far as you are in dividually concerned, when the fact is considered that you had notice, and yet took no sufficient action, The information upon which I spoke was from Washington, the 2Gtn ol lastvmon'th,; Ly ; ..the i "'Associated Press, the same that brings mo your letter. The Associated Press ob tained its information' either in your department or from the inves tigating . committee. If you .were not correctly reported that was the time for complaint and correction. You testified that the total of the suspicious vouchers discovered so tar was about $03,000, and that the money fraudulently obtained was in some instances divided between a watchman ; in the - department, Corrigaa, the chief clerk, and Kirk wood, -irr charge of the accounts. Now,- what notice had you! Ac cording to the Associated Press re port of your testimony, you received a letter lust year charging Corrigan, one of the parties, with druuken- ness, anu alter tnat a man came to you andUold you that Kirkwood and Corrigan were engaged ; in frauds. "Did not that put you npon noticeand investigation! ;,r ' You testified that some inquiry was made, and the conclusion was that, while there were some sus picious circumstances, they did not warrant a conclusion of guilt. After a notice, verbal and In writing, you left the men in office. 1 You did not bring the ' frauds to light nor the guilty parties to punishment. . It was Government Detective Wood who discovered the frauds, arid the Associated Press report says that Wood declared that he would have no further dealings with your de partment, but would press an in yestigatioa before Congress. Whatis your next excuse! Worse, ifpos8ible,thanall before. You say1 a Marge number of Congress men, including some gentlemen of great influence and position, recom mended that the head of the bureau, Dr. Wales, should be reappointed. Members of Congress knew nothing of the frauds; they had no oppor tunity to know. It was within your reach and duty. They were prob ably bis personal friends; you were his official superior.' But, in fact, did you reappoint him! I under stand not. Perhaps the detective discovered the frauds too soon. But Dr. Wales was not one of the three guilty parties. He neither forged the Vouchers nor embezzled the money. , His responsibility , in the case is just , the same as your own. He was the official superior of the three rogues, as you were of hini self, as well as of them. Neither he nor yourself exposed the frauds Or punished the parties. ,' ' , I have! not thought of or consid ered this as a case of politics. Ad dressing my neighbors, I said that this and 'like cases admonished them to demand civil service reform in the removal pf all from office who will not seek tor promote it within the sphere of their official duty and authority. Respectfully, 1 ' ' ; T. A. Hendeicks. ' i . " Cheerfulness. ' , 1 1 , From the Farmer and Mechanic. . 'This charming virtue signifies good spirits. It is not light, thoughtless levity, or - reckless mirth, but a calm, joyful state of mind, that indicates certain hope. It is not particularly "formulated, or governed by any syntactical rule, but invariable gives expression in some way indicating' the real state of mind, which is regarded as an exponent of the, true inward heart. It is the opposite of a morose, sullen spirit, or cross, disagreeable1 tern, per. Cheerfulness does not neces sarily indicate a great, talker, or loud laughing ' Spencer says, "The cheerful birds of sundry kind do chant sweet music.'' There is no christian duty that is not to be sea Boned and set off with choei fulness. Her royal presence produces a sense of satisfactton among all, the in vited guests. Each with "charac teristic grace bids her occupy the most prominent 'position, feeling that she is impartial in her minis trations, taking equal interest in the humblest as in the more con spicuous. . She belongs, to some extent, to all the living, but is man ifested , in different i creatures in different ways. The human race especially is impressed by outward Influences and expressions. . Cheerfulness has its origin from the Inner man.. The seat of the affection kept pure, the stream is pure. A- consciousness of right doing, right thinking, and right aiming, never fails to produce a conscious approbation, which is re flected from the iunerlens of the soul, and meets the incidental rase from another heart, and the result of so delightful a meeting is real pleasure.' It is indicative of a con tented and hopeful mind. Nothing is truer than that a fountain can not send forth both bitter and sweet water at the same time. A lumi nous body cannot be luminous and non-luminous at the same time.,. So the heart being kept pure, the soul is glad, and the face proclaims the happy - affect.1 The great Creator never intended that His cfeatures should be sad. 1 Th,e surroundings in the outer world are peculiarly adapted to i excite admiration, to bid us rejoice, to call forth the most hopeful contemplation. Tbe blue vault above. , arching all . space, which we call sky, so - frequently tinged, with golden hue, and at other times artistically lined with silvery fringed clouds,'; changing their position and phases into many a variety" of iade; eyery few min utes; the fiery tongued lightning playing upon the clouds, the hoarse toned , thunder that echoes and reverberates in space; the falling of the rain so mysteriously as well as the balmy, though fickle breezes, are all eloquent . with the fact that God is good, that , sadness and gloom are unbecoming His intelli gent creatures,' The shining of the sun, so beautifully reflected from all the worlds in , the Solar system, whisper in sweetest accents to be cheerful. ; The trees, .decked. with foliage," the 'shrubs adorned ..with beantilul ; tinted flowers ; exhaling fragrant Odors,' the innocent birds chirping so unconsciously the praise of their Omniscient One, all speak to us and say, Be happy 1 , Christian cheerfulness Is sweet, at all times, never repulsive, but magnetic and queenly in, bearing. Nothing ren ders God's . creatures sad but sin. The world untouched by sin i the heart 'of man knows po sadness; even now he has abiding hope buoy ant with promise.. "He that hath a merry heart hath continual feast." It is the opinion of the philosophers that a cheerful spirit is eondusive to good health and long life. Cheer ful spirits are akin to angels. No sadness enters Heavenly ) society. Constant gratitude, praise and re joicing are the characteristic; em ployments of the sinless host. , It is thus that Heavenly society is formed. This charming grace is susceptible of a higher degree of culture and no,! doubt but : the indi vidual will be amply .rewarded in the pursuit of so great a boon. We can simply say to every ; throbbing heart, be cheerful.' - It is a fountain of richest wealth, look to. that heavenly host and bid sadness' .flee away. Exultant buoyancy abound ing in holy, love is the . constant employment of the inhabitants of Heaven. Eva A Jewell, at Dothan High Scliool, S. 0.
