Letter from Philadelphia. Mr. Editor J- You often publish letters from the West but seldom from the East. It would do the average reader of the Progress good to visit the Eastern cities in winter. It would do much to make him contented with the quiet home like ways of our iloosier towns. The streets here are very narrow as compared with those of Blooming ton. They have 12 feet pavements on each side and about 30 feet of roadway. When the people shovel the snow off those wide pavements, as they are compelled to' do, and then shovel it off the street ear ttack in the middle, it makes two wind-rows of snow on each side. Two weeks ago, after the big sioroi, these wind-rows were about three feet deep all along the squares, and at the street crossings about as high as a man's head This snow, sheltered by the the three-story houses, thaws very slowly in the day time and freezes at night into the form of mush ice in the gutters. Such has been the delightful condition of the streets for the past two weeks. In the vestibnle of a church a few days ago I heard a ladv say, " Take care of my sore arm,'' and another, " Ob, my sore arm " and

on inquiry I learned that all the.

school children who did not have good marks were required to be vaccinated, on account of the smallpox being in the city. The papers last week reported thirteen cases, which appeared to be something of a decrease. It occurred to me that it would be a good thing for the Bloomington School Board to require all the children to be vaccinated, because if a case of smallpox was to occur in town it wonld almost break up the school. Perhaps a suggestion to the parents will make the action of the Board unnecessary. It is distressing to see children raised as they are compelled to raise them here on the streets. The city was originally laid out in squares, checker-board fashion, with alleys running each way through the squares, as in Bloomington. When the fine houses were built out to the pavements, long, roomy back yards were left, running back to the alleys. But as the city became compact and ground became valuable, capitalists found it profitable to buy about 30 feet on each side of an alley, widen it into a narrow street, and build a row of houses on each side, to rent to the poor laboring classes. The consequence is that these tenements, which are usually full of children, have no back yards, and the residences of the rich which face the main streets have such small ones and they so completely shaded by buildings, that they are not fit for play grounds. The consequence is that rich men's children play on the main streets and the poor men's children are crowded into these narrow, dirty streets, or courts, as they are generally called. As might be supposed the children spend a large part of the time in the houses. It made me sad to see a good, kind mother a lew days ago, seeing her little girls growing pale and puny for want of fresh air, wrap them up and say to them, ' run out now, and take a play.9' When the little things could not gooff a 12 foot pave

ment without getting, into snow up to their necks, while the -hired girl had to sit on the dotir step and watch them to keep tbem from getting on the street car track. These city children would regard the clean, grassy yard of the average Bloomington house as a paradise beside their palatial, richly;;; furnished residences. This is a strong Republican city, but it had quite a revolution la t week in the election of a-Democratic Mayor, It appears as if the opportunity for jobbery is so great in these cities that the formation of rings to corrupt the government i? a natural tendency no . matter which side is on top. But a Republican is sure to come to grief because the average Republican voter will not sustain his party when it forsakes the interests of the people. A Presbyterian Elder said to me on the day of election : " I am a Republii an to the back bone, but I will vote against Stofeeley. We have a Republican Presbyterian government in the city, but I believe the leaders are corrupt and I will vote against them," So the new Democratic Mayor,

King, who is reported to be an honorable, trustworthy man, was elected by Republican votes. The moral of this story for Republicans is not hard to see. w i m.

The Constitutional Amendments. Indianapolis Journal. The proclamation of Governor Porter relative to thp hew election on the constitutional amendments appears this morning, tt is in accordance with the action of the Legislature on the subject, which, in turn, is in strict accord with the popular will. It is unnecessary to enter into a detailed history of the proposed amendments to the organic instrument of the State, which are thus, for a second time, submit ted to a popular vote. They have been once thwarted by the decision of a partisan court $ let ns hope that the voice of the people will be loud enough in the next election to make itself heard throughout the length and breadth of the State. Without entering into any argument on the subject, it is enough now to recall the number and nature of the amendments. The people are pretty well informed as to their importance. They are, first, an amendment prescribing the qualifications and residence of voters, as follows! "Amend section 2 of article 2 sn as to

read as follows:" Section 2. In H elections, not otherwise provided for by this constitution, every malt) citia.m of the United States of the ago of twenty one years and upwards, who shall have resided in the State during six months, and in the township sixty days, and in the ward or precinct thirty days immediately preceding such election, and every male of for eiga birth of the ago of twenty-one years and upward, who shall have resided in the United States one year, and shall have resided in this State during the six months, and in the township sixty day?, and in the ward or precinct th rity days immediately preceding such election; and shall have declared his intention to become a citizen of the United States conformably to the laws of the United States on the subject of naturalization, shall be entitled to vote in the township or precinct where he may reside, if ho shall have been duly registered according to law." This amendment is intended to protect the purity of the ballot-box, and its effect is so plain as to need no interpretation. Amendment No. 2 is verbal in its character, conforming the constitution of the State to that of the United States on the color question. - Amendment No. 3 changes the time for holding general elections from October to November. The importance of this change needs no argument. It has been demonstrated time and again. It would save the people of Indiana an immense amount of worry and money every year. Amendment No. 4 strikes out the word " white" whore it occurs and thus conforms the State constitution to the United States constitution. The fifth amendment relates to fees and salaries ; the sixth to the reconstruction of the judicial system, and the ninth to the restriction of the indebtedness of counties, cittes and towns. These proposed amendments to the constitution are enumerated not for the purpose of argument but simply to recall them to the popular mind. The people have passed upon them once, and by every fair construction adopted them. The chicanery of a partisan court, acting in co-operation with partisan politics, has made it necessary to resubmit them to the people. After considerable discussion and vigorous opposition on the part of leading Democrats this result is reached. The proclamation of Governor Porter is the culminating act on the part of the executive department It remains for" the people to turn out on the 14th of March and give the final seal of their second indorsement to the amendments now resubmitted to their judgment. The grand jury found the following indictment against the county jail : " Wo have visited the jail of Monroe county and report tout tho same is in the

following condition: That tho drainage;

in me ceuar or easement oi prison is in a bad condition ; that the sewer from prisun privy is in a very bad condition, and the

general drainage is also bad; there is I

much accumulation of excrement and other offensive and refuse matter now in the prison basement that cannot fail to vitiate the air and render tho prison unhealthy. For severe weather the stove now used is not sufficient to warm the prison. There should be a large stove, or another in addition to the one now in use, for severe weather. Tho prisoners have been well fed and kindly treated. There are some panes of glass out of the windows. The beds and beddingare old, and in our opinion, new ones, with more blankets should he supplied. Jon.v UuLflarrLE, Foreman.

N. A. Ledger: There is a shrewd woman in this city of a financial turn of mind. She has been married four times and always does her part by her better halve. In fact she makes better men of her husbands than when she found them. The first thing after marriage, or rather about the first thing she does, is to have them well in surcd in benevolent associations. Three of her husbands have died within the past ten years and- she generally takes in about 2,000 at a death. As fast as the Ijord calls for one husband she takes another, together with the 2,000 insurance.

Mark Twain says that he has made out of his books about $125,000 clear, and out of his last book, A Tramp Abroad," $40,000, and out of his lectures and plays, in addition to his books, enough to bring the whole aggregate up to $250,000. He says that the sum ought to have been over 400,000, and that he had just now discovered that he had printed ins books on a false basis; that he ought to have

published the book himself, and paid his publishers a percentage lor selling them, instead of letting them pay him a percentage for writing them. He said he had written u novel, and was preparing the plates himself, and meaut to put it out by hiring the publishers, instead ot being hired; and that all writers ought to take that position that the book publisher was the hireling, and not the author and thus many of our young men, who have written well and hard, would have been in independent circumstances long ago. He said the American copyright laws were ot very little good to authors. Robins are so plentiful in Burke c.mnty, Georgia, that on Sundays a n:gro man of Waynesboro amuses himself by catching them with fishinghooks. He baits the hook, and throws his line over the limb of the tree on which the birds most do congregrate, and waits for them to bite. He caught twenty-five in this way last Sunday week. A New Orleans man lately cabled to a friend in Cuba, "Send me one or two monkeys," The reply came back i "Shipped you 75 ; will send rest as soon as ran be found." The telegram had gone: 'Send me 102 monkeys;" The balance of 27 have been countermanded. - Beware of the potato bug, Ui chard Jackson, of Richmond, last summer mashed one between his fingersj and afterward touched the inside of one of his cars with his

finger. His ear happened to be sore, and the sore took up the poison of the hug. His head gathered and he had h operated upon in New York and Cincinnati, but without relief. The poison finally pervaded his whole system, and he died two weeks ago. S Consolidation or tbe Slate Institutions of Learning, Terro Haute Express. The Indianapolis Journal of yesterday contained a very lengthy communication in which the writer made an attempt to give good reasons for consolidating the State institutions of learning. It is a production of Purdue and, as a matter of course, was written in the interest of that institution. The writer makes no a'tempt to show why the Normal school should be consolidated with the others, but will probably bring his gigantic intellect to bear on that subject at some future time. The State Universityis aimed at on this particular occasion. Purdue believes its standard is too low and desires to raise it hy absorbing the State University Unlike Mohammed it wants the mountain to come to it because it cannot go to the mountain. The State University has an attendance of about 350 in the various departments. This is a much larger number than attends Purdue. Nowadays the larger institution absorbs the smaller, but Purdue seeks to reverse this well established rule. If the standard of education does not suit the students who attend Purdue, why don't they change and go to Bloomington ? It is open to all comers. Another reason given by this correspondent is that " the consolidation of the State University with Purdue would bring," to Purdue, "a higher grade of students, who would require the raising of the standard a little above that of a country high school, greatly strengthen the faculty of the combined institutions (for there are men of exceptional merit iu each faculty), and create a museum and library almost without an equal in the country. Indeed the natural history cabinet at Bloomington is believed to be the best in the Unit

ed States, and all such properties could be removed from Bloomington and united with those at Purdue, not only without loss, but with positive gain to the State and the cause of education." If, as this correspondent says, the standard of Purdue is no higher than that of a country high school a union would cause confusion rather than be a beuefit to either. " The standard of a mechanical and7 agricultural sheep farm would hardly carry its students through an examination which would entitle them to admission to tbe State University, and if the union would require an elevation of the standard of admission, how could that be accomplished without confusion at Purdue? The State -University has property valued at 140,000 and an endowment of 120,000 and has $30,000 per aunum to carry it on. It seems as though it can comfortably survive on this, without languishing. Purdue has an endowment of 380,000 from which it has an income of $20,000 which, with the State appropriation should carry it through. The interests of the two institutions are not identical. Purdue may turn out good farmers, but when literature, science, law or medicine are to be learned pupils do not go there to find either or all of them. Another objection fo consolidating the State University with Purdue is that the latter is situated too far from Lafayette to be convenient for students. Two miles is a little too far to walk to and from school. Purdue is amply provided for. If its standard is too low the managers should proceed to raise it; no one will object, except probably the students. If it will just attend strictly to business and allow the other- institutions to do the same the world will move just the same as at present, and the educational interests of the Statu will not suffer materially.

The snow in the west has been particularly damaging to the sheep men. One firm who are wintering their Hocks near Copperopolis, in Montana, have lost nearly half of them. They have hay, but the sheep drifted away from it during a storm, and they now find it impossible to get their sheep to the hay, or their hay to the sheep.

Accounts of great snow slides begin to come from the Rocky mountains. On Wood River,Utah, four men were found suffocated in a cabin that had been covered some twenty feet deep. In Montana a herd of two hundred cattle was buried and killed.

Wolves are plenty in Conoord tp., Towa, this winter, apd Jacob Floyd set .a trap to catch them. The next morning, when he went to examine it, he found one of his neighbors with both hands in the trap, and nearly frozen to death. He had been out hunting, stopped to look at the trap,which, suddenly springing, caught and held him last. SCRIBNER FOR MARCH .has a second part of Mrs. Bumott's novelette, A .fair Barbarian, which will be found even more interesting than the first. "Ericsson's Destroyer and hor New Gun," is the subject of a paper by Mr. Chas. Barnard, whfch has the advantage of presenting the first drawings. ''Home and Society" treats of a 'Mothor's Duty to Her Girls," etc. There is also a critical review of Endymion.
