McGarlgle has squealed, and Mike Mo- Donald is alarmed. Tbe Commission- •re' case was called yesterday before Judge Jamison, the bill of particulars filed by the State, and the case set for trial to-day. In the McGarlgle-Mc- Donald case, Judge Shspard refused ball. Pj. . Wtll. very convenient to make Adjt. Gen. Drum the "Bcape-goat" to bear tbe responsibility of tbe "tender" of the rebel flags to tbe "authorities" of tbe Southern States, but no one will believe that he would undertake such an act until ^instructed by tbe Honorable Secretary of War,* and "approved" by tbe P&sident. The Adjutant-General is not accustomed to take such responsibilities. r Pfv iVTbte bricklayers and masons In Chicago are meeting with bard lines. Some time ago. without reasonable cause, they quit steady work and good wages, and after spending their litUe savings began drawing npon the fund of tbe association. Now the treasury is empty and tbe deluded men must either starve or work. The lesson, though oostly, may be valuable in the long run as some men never learn wis­ dom any other way. 19"The city of Marsbfield, Wis, was almost entirely wiped out of exist enoe by lire on Monday. Tbe flames started in a lumber yard and the entire city, with the exception of a solitary store, is now a smouldering ruins. There are 1,509 people beraeless and the scenes of anguisb aid despair on the part of those who have lost all their earthly possessions cannot be described. It is simply awful. People with the household goods which they managed to save are scattered aloag tbe roads, and hundreds are left with­ out shelter, except the friendly sky, and with nothing to oat. Tbe loss is estimated at from 91,000,000 to 93,0*0,- 000. ELGIN DAIRY MARKET. Reported Expressly for tbe Plaixdealkb by A- W. Hutchins, Secretary of tbe Elgin Board ot Trajle.

The presidential campaign occurred In the fall of 1864, and Abraham Lln- ooln was reelected President by a ma< jority of the popular vote, a Tote which endorsed the Republican party and the administration, as satisfactory to the citizens of the nation, and thus expressed its approval of the actions of the executive head of the govern- ment and his steadfast determination to suppress the rebellion. As a moral effect of this election, and of the vigorous policy of suppress­ ing ibe disunion armies, which were uow in full operation, tbe secession movement approached Its end. Abra-* ham Lincoln was inaugurated Presi­ dent on March 4th, 1SG5, and on April 9th. 1865, only six weeks later, the Southern Army under Gen. Lee, sur­ rendered to Gen. Grant at Appomat­ tox Court House, and tbe Rtbellion was at an end. The armed forces of secession and disunion were whipped and crushed. Of tbe satisfaction and joyous celebration thl9 event caused throughout the North and' in the hearts of all loyal citizens it Is not necessary to speak. It was a triumph of patriotism and freedom, and as such destined to fill a high niche in the world** history ot humanity. But Abraham Llneoln was not des­ tined to complete the noble work be had commenced. A few weeks later, when as the leader of the Republican party, the champion of Freedom and the conqueror of the forces of disunion ha stood.the grandest potentate of tbe World, his apotheosis occurred. A crazy fanatic of tbe disunion element assassinated him. He died on the morning of April 15, 1865. His life ended, but his work was enduring, and it still lives, and will live while his­ tory endures. Andrew Johnson, by virtue of his office as vice president succeeded to tbe Presidency. During his official term, tbe work of Reconstruction was inaugurated aud made much progress and although he failed to satisfy his party, and much dissention was oc­ casioned by his actions which resulted In his impeachment, still the prepon­ derance of Republicans In tbe halls of Congress, rendered bis unfortunate course of little permanent detriment to tbe Nation and much good was accom­ plished. The Thirteenth Amendment, abol­ ishing slavery was submitted to the action of the states, and declared rati­ fied and a part of the Constitution on December 18tb, 1865. Then the Four­ teenth Amendment granting certain civil rights to freedmen and others, was ratified and declared adopted in July, 1868. The presidential campaign which resulted in the election of General Grant as the standard Nearer of the Republican party occurred in the fall of this year and he was inaugurated as President on the 4th of March, 1869. During his administra tlon the Fif. tee nth Amendment, granting tbe right to vote, without regard to race or color, or previous condition of serv­ itude. was adopted and declared to be a part of tbe Constitution on March 30th, 1870. This concluded the legis­ lative measures of a Constitutional character. Judged necessary for Reoou* struction purposes, and completed the work commenced by President Lincoln. Daring Gen. Grant's term tbe last of tbo seceded States accepted these various amendments to the Constitu­ tion. the last vestiges of tbe State Sovereignty doctrine being thus wiped out and tbe Union, as a nation, resumed its place ass whole, a united and indivisible government. In tbe next presidential campaign the Republicans renominated Gen. Grant. The citizens of the United States, recognizing the triumph of Republicanism and Freedom, and tbo raot that all necessary legislative ifis had been enacted to perpetuate fin Union, reelected Gen. Grant as Presi­ dent with the largest percentage of the popular vote which any Republi­ can candidate bad ever received. The reaction from the effects of the war had now been fully equalized, and the country bad entered upon an era of unexampled prosperity. Railroads were built everywhere, tbe Union Pacific having been opened in 1870. and ttie country was being settled and developed in every direction. Mines of the precious metals were being opened throughout the western terri­ tories and regions, manufactories were springing up, and all tbe accompani­ ments of financial prosperity gave evi­ dence of tbe universal tendency. A de­ velopment which has continued with tew Interruptions until to-day, and which has laid tbo toundation of the wealthiest country on t^he globe. The next presidential campaign re­ sulted in another Republican victory, and Rutherford B. Hayes was inaugu­ rated President March 4th, 1877. He however, received a smaller propor­ tion of the popular vote, than was polled at the election four years be­ fore. His administration was just and conservative, and he was the first President to take a strong position on the subject of civil service reform, A 0 Wt • JET lw('.7;,, Machinery At the W arehouse of IV* sell the Celebrated Piano and Minneapolis ^ BINDERS, Knowlton, Standard, Manny, Crawford, Phy**** lilttifiettpolis, and Eureka ;- All warrauted to give satisfac­ tion, and oqr prices are the low--; est.
