Worthy Master, Brothers and Sisters: I would ask the question, what has produced this Grange movement? what has brought about this great upheaval among the farmers of this nation, a class of men who have hitherto taken but little or no part in the affair of government, but have suffered th< u-selves to be dictated to by ail o', her classes? For the past fifteen years the agri-culturalists of the land have witnessed the gradual but sure loss of their hard earned wealth, and its concentration into the hands of rings and monopo-lies, into the hands of an aristocratic class, a principle alike dangerous to civil liberty and republican govern-ment. It was in a great measure the concentration of the wealth in the hands of a few that corrupted and finally overthrew the old Roman Em-pire, aud our government is fast fol-lowing in her wake. Twenty per cent, of the hard earned wealth of the farmers lias departed from their hands in the last fifteen years, and has gone into the hands of the favored few. Millions of vampires and leeches, in the shape of middlemen have fastened themselves on the substance of the far-mers, and have been gradually steal-ing it away, until in many instances they have scarcely sufficient left to keep the wolf from their doors. And when these greedy cormorants have been gently chided, and asked to let go, they answer no, by tightening their grip. Well we have organized to get out of this class ui plunderers. We intend to shake them off. We know the struggle will be a hard one. Their fangs have penetrated our very vitals. It is a death struggle with them. They are loth to let go, but in proportion as they have tightened their grip will be the hardness of their fall when it comes, and if some of them tall in hard places, and come out maimed and bruised, they ought not to blame us; they should have been engaged in a more honorable calling than that of pillage and plunder. These are some of the causes which produced our Order. There are oth-era of which I do not propose to speak now, but would ask that you take a look at the present condition of our government. Turn it which way you will, it presents a dark picture. Light seems to pervade it no where. Every species of crime known to human law, and human society are holding high sway over the land. Government rob-beries, bank robberies, bank defaults, forging, perjury, swindling and steal-ing of the deepest dye, and most in-famous character, are of daily occur-rence. At whose door does all this infamy lie. It can not be laid at that of the farmer, for there are almost none of them in office. Then, it be-longs to the other classes. This, my brothers and sisters, demonstrates the fact that the six million farmers in this nation possess a greater amount of honor and virtue than the other classes, for in reading the daily history of crime, we find but little charged to their account. When the historian of future ages shall take his pen in hand, and start up the stream of time, to gather up and record the incidents and occurrences that produced the downfall of the greatest government that ever unfurled a flag, and reaches the year 1875, he will pause in wonder and amazement. He will find food there for reflection. He will find cor-ruption in high places enough in this one year to shake to its very founda-tion the house that was built on the rock. But we are farmers, and it has been said, nr have no right to dabble in polities, or governmental t.ft’.irs. We are nqt to ilLcuss politics or leligion in the Grange Hall, butl contend we have llie rigut here or elsewhere to denounce corruption wherever we find it, and we have the right t<> use all legitimate means to put it down. One of the avowed objects ol the Order is to restore our govern-ment to its former glorious position. I hen, how are we to do it unless we take hold uf the thiug squarely ? How are we to do it unless we hurl from place aud power the myriads of thieves and scoundrels and put honest men in their places, and where is a better place to discuss the means by which this thing is to be accomplished than in the Grange hall ? Indirectly, if not directly, all these swindles and steals come out of the pockets of the tillers of the soil. It is one of the first laws of nature that man shall protect his life, t hen n follows as a sequence that the second law should be to protect the little property you have acquired by honest sweat of your brow. Our Order has other objects in view paramount, if possible to that of dollars and cents. They are the bringing up of our occu-pation to its proper aud honorable po-sit ion, the social, moral and intellec tual training and improvement of its members. Our vocation is equalled by no other in its great antiquity— from the dawn of civilization, from the oldist dates of which we have histori cal knowledge, beyond the era ol the hunter and shepherd, agriculture ex-isted, and never at any time during the historv of man lias it ceased to ex-ist, but has ever kept pace with prog-ress and improvement. Soon alter the great Architect had finished His labors. He looked out over them, blessed them and said that all was good, the fiat went forth to man to earn his bread by the sweat of his brow. Agriculture was begun in the Garden of Eden. We learn that Cain was a tiller of the soil and that Noah planted a viueyard. Without agriculture and the bless ings it has diffused in counteracting roving and vicious habits and the re quiriug regularity ol labor, thus neces sttating society, mankind would all lmve been s ivages thinly scatteied . ver the globe, whilst Christianity and civ-itzaiiou which now spreads over aud illuminates the world would b.- feeble aud flickering. The ancients held husbandry in the highest esteem. It has been said the Egyptians credited its origin to superhuman agency; they worshiped the ox as a type of labor in manifestation of their gratitude to that superhuman power. 1 he Romans held the plow in th« highest veneration; the proudest days of that old empire the highest honor that could be heaped on an illustrious character was to call him an honest, industrious frugal hus-headman. Cato, the orator, statesman and general whom the. oaians de-lighted to honor for his prowess in the field and cabinet, yet reaped his most enduring honors from the aid he ex-tended to agriculture' And Castrol (if I mistake not his name) the greatest ancient of them all, a man who would ---- :------------ ——T—r----- -——TT7 have adorned t he kingly palace or who could have worn with honor to himself and his nation a royal diadem, chose farming as his occupation and plowed his lands with a forked stick. Thus we see that agriculture was held in greater esteem than any other calling by those who lived in the days nearest its origin. But, where does it stand to -day ? What position do the farmers of this nation occupy ? Husbandry is the leading pursuit of all other^ait is the one on which every other calling or profession rests; it is the great rock out of which flows the stream that sus-tains the human family. Then, does it stand pre-eminent and above all others—do the farmers occupy the front rank in society ? I say no—ern-phatically, no! They are regarded by many other classes as a kind of low, groveling creatures unfit for their so-ciety, unworthy of notice or distinc-tion and their occupation as low and degrading. Why is all this ? Who is to blame ? I admit that some of the blame rests with the farmers and that blame runs back to our fathers. They were not educated as a mass. They did not read. They did not culti-vate their minds by thought aud study as they should huve done; they did not educate us, nor did they teach us that intelligence was desirable and necessa-ry among farmers as well as other classes. They did not teach us that knowledge was power, now we must fault them and ourselves for our small stock of knowledge, and also for the low state into which our occupation has drifted. Then, to remedy these evils by the improvement, cultivation and enlightening our minds, and to bring up our occupation to its proper level are some of the objects of our organization. There is a great want of useful information among the farm-ers of this nation, but happily that want is being supplied through the channels of that great university, the Grange organization. It is a school to which both sexes from the bright eyed youths of sixteen to the hoary headed sires and matrons, can go. It is a school, which if properly attended will be of invaluable benefit to those for whom it was intended. Then let us patronize it liberally. Let us meet often and discuss questions that are of vital interest to as, as the producers of the nation’s wealth, but me thinks I hear some brother way over yonder an-swer, “we have not the time.” We cannot leave our farms, only occa-sionally, and that only at night. To you I would in all kindness and candor say, beware. You have time to labor day in and day out; you have time to lay down at night and sleep like the ox; you have time to sit down in the blissful ignorance, whilst the sharpers are stealing away your hard earnings; but you have no time to cultivate and improve your mind; you have no time to assist in shaping the policy of this government in your interests, and you had no time to help keep scoundrels from office, whereby the government has been robbed of millions, thus eu-tailing an everlasting debt on you and your posterity. It was this same lack of time, this same do-nothing policy among the farmers, (except to dig in the ground) that permitted unprinci-pled and corrupt men to precipitate this nation into that great convulsion through which we have just passed —a convulsion which rocked it from center to circumference, and rent in twain the rock upon w hich our fa-brie of government was built. This same apathy, this same do-nothing policy, if persisted in, must produce a second convulsion, that will be in its effects more terrible than the first; for, in that second, our Lone Star Empire will go down in blood and carnage to rise no more! Then, my brothers and sisters, let us be up and doing; let us play our part in the great drama that lies before us; let us take that part in shaping the policy of this nation which our inter-ests demand we should. My sisters, a few words to you and I have done. Has it ever occurred to your minds, the great responsibility that is resting upon you? Has it ever occurred to your minds, that, as moth-ers, you have almost the entire shaping, the destiny of your child? As soon as it is aDle to lisp your name, as soon as it is able to patter across the floor on its little feet—you find it trying to imitate you. It believes you know it all, it lelieves what you say or do is right, and these early impressions are never eradicated. It adopts your language, your manners, your habits, your every example, it imitates. Some of the greatest men tke world has ever seen, owe their greatness, in a large measure to their early training by the mother. Then how careful should you be in the example you set your children, the advice you give and the influences you throw around them? Away down in the impenetra-ble future, long years after the old ‘charriot” shall have visited your homes and left your place around the hearthstone vacant, long years after you have gone from labor to refresh ment in that Eternal Home, prepared for the good and the great, when your sons and daugters shall have climbed the pinicle ot fame and sit down upon its summit to retrospect the past, let them review it with pride anil pleasure, and let them with hon-eet hearts aud truthful lips say, “It was the example of my mother; it was the advice of my mother; it was the influence my mother exerted over my youthful mind that enabled me to climb here!” NEWS BY TELEGRAPH.

Since the commencement of civilization, physicians have admitted that a wholesome stimulant was a desideratum in medicine, For many centuries the question was, “where shall we find it.” The introduction of Udolpho Wolfe's Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps, solved the problem. Eagerly, enthusiastically) the profession seized u the new article ; universally they tested"it unanimously they approved it. To-day the faculty consider it the purest and the best medleyed stimulant extant, and habitually prescribe it for dyspepsia, kidney com plaints, general debility, and for the ner-vous ailments to which the feebler sex are especially subject. Of all tonics, diuretics and nervines, it is the safest and best. mh9 d&wTfim The Great Specialty In medicine. It would require a column to enumerate the so-called medicinal stimulants, with re fuse liquor for their basis, which “ Udolphi Wolf’s Schiedam Aromatic Schnapps,” 6 the lapse of a quarter of a century, lived down. At present it is oiliclally recog uized by ■the profession andI generally by the Eublic/as the only thoroughly safe alco-olic iuvigorant in existence. Analysis has be iolic demonstrated its spirituous element to absolutely pure; and the highest medical authority sanctions its use iu preference to any other preparation as a remedy for indl gestion, bodily weakness, melancholia urinary complaints, nervous diseases, and all ailments of either sex which requires invlg orating and tranquillzing treatment. marlld&wS6m.

The House went into a committee of the whole oh postoffice appropriations. Clark, of Jfissouri, offered an addi-tional section, allowing third-class mail matter to be sent in packages not exceeding four pounds in weight, and making the postage one cent for every two ounces, adopted. Before the adoption Randall said the legislation of last Congress, which this amend-ment proposed to correct, had put iu the appropriation bill, and without the knowledge of one member in twenty, he stated that unless the proposed sec-tion was put into this bill, the infa-mous legislation of last Congress will continue in force; that the interests at stake were enormous that the Express companies had their agents and attor-neys here endeavoring to defeat it; that unless the House took the propo - sition by the throat the Express com panies would again triumph over Con-gress, and the newspapers would again be made to suffer. The committee rose and reported. The bill after va rious amendments was passed. Cincinnati Convention.
