That Tlaa Some facts.
MY ESTEEMED MAJOR: She still waves, 1 mean the tlag. 1 have followed your instructions and the troops are withdrawn. My first expression was to oppose your order. I believed more political capital could be made at the expense of old Clark township. But now I see it is for the best. As the Ladoga Leader savs. (between the lin.es,) the republican party is on top. wo haw gained sill we can by noise and talk. Now let's have peace and not agitate the question longer.
I have learned many things since 1 joined the republican party. Once it was difficult for me to understand how the taritr taken off of sugar made it cheap, while a higher tariff put on tin made it cheap too. But now 1 see clearly all these questions. There is one thing that troubles me to sxpiain, out however. I suppose when I
have
advanced far
enough in the doctrines of Republicanism, these figures will appear different. At tirst view I thought they were false hut an investigation proved them correct.- When in Ladoga hist Saturday I was talking of the debt owed the Hepublican party for suppressing the rebellion. flow they saved the union, and put down democratic treason, etc. An old man spoke up from the crowd and said. "The claim that tho republican party is the only loyal party, as ever was, is all stuff. You may have a monoply on many things but you can't on patriotism. More than one-half of the soldiers in the union army came from the ranks of the
democratic
party."
I told him it was a campaign lie. I, couldn't think of any thing else to say then. The old fellow took a chew and continued to read from a little red note book. "Illinois the home of Lincoln, gave him only 17:2,000 votes in 1860, and sent 258,000 men to defend the stars and strips. Iowa another republican state, furnished 75.000 soldiers which reduced the democrat vote from 5.1,000 in 1800 to 47,000 in 1804 while the republican vote increased 1,000 in that time." Wes Dauglitery began to smile and a good crowd had assembled around. These soldiers I told him came from states where the republican party had aroused a loyal feeling. Then he read. "Kentucky gave Lincoln in 18G0, 1,300 votes anil yet 70,000 soldiers rallied from the "corn cracker state." In Maryland the total republican vote was 2,000, yet from that state 50,000. men shouldred the musket and moved to the front. Do you doubt that Missouri was a democratic stato? Missouri sent over six times as many men to wear tho bluo as the republican party received votes. More soldiers marchcd in defense of the
Hag from that state than came all from of the republican state of Kansas, Nebraska Vermont, Rhode Island, and Minnesota put to-gether." I got excited and said Jeff. Davis was a democrat and should have been hung and his head put ou a pole in llio rotunda of the capital, and some other things I had heard you say in a decoration day address. The democrat party, I told hint had never been in favor of the old soldier and had always apposed anything for liis benefit, since the war closed: while the republicans had repeatedly passed resolutions in favor of tho blue coat. Wes Daughterv replied, "you aregreaton resolutions but it always ends in the resolve. It was the democratic statesmen who turned legitation in favor of the union soldiers. They limited the pension fee to $10. A democratic congress brought forward a bill tho sanio year Hays stole tho presidency. that would have jinsured protection to the soldier and his heir in holding their land grants. This measure was opposed by the republicans who favored the land sharks. It was a democratic house that passe.l a bill providing for issuing the necessary artificial limbs to all maimed soldiers, who before this, had to purchase from the dealer at what price he chose to ask.'" By this time Wes was talking pretty loud but I interrupted him to say Grant and Logan were republicans and Lincoln was a republican too. All the great leaders were of the same party but Daughertv started out at a 2:10 'gate on such' names as: McClellan. Hancock. Sigel. Hooker, Blenker,, Johnson, N Roscrans,'^ Palmer Black, Corcoran. Brag. Slocum, Foster, and Stoneman. I do not know what would have come next, but 1 stepped in to see rny old friend and eoinrad Tom Wells who had just received a barrel of something scotch from Carnigi. You spoke of writing a national epie with Miss Connor as the heroine.^Have tried it. In fact I made several at
tempt at tho heroic measure, but each timo roached tho end of the verse. Tell us why, O. murse?Thon I thought of tho school mistress and took fright. Nothing I could do would charm her back again. She refused point blank to be invoked. 1 myself thought of cornpairing Miss Connors to Joan of Arc. Joan astride a white war steed with the sunshine glistening on her armor, charged on the enemy. With her own hands she planted tho scaling ladder against the walls and ascended tho tower. Nothing daunted her until the banner she carried waved triutnphantlyover tho enemies' stronghold. Our school mistress mounted on that modern war horse—a Columbia safety, with her dinner pail reflecting back tlio blushes of tho sun charged on No. 9 and never stop until her "lifty cents" waved. Here my comparison "breaks down, for Joan was finally deserted by her friends and captured.
The school mistress was not captured, tis sad. He backed out. Joan was tried and convicted as a witch, a crank. Our "defender" has not been yet, I bulieve, Joan was condemned to death by fire and tied to tho stake. Tho faggots were lighted, the brave girl began to sing, nearer and nearer creaped the flames and as they mounted higher her white face was lost in the smoke. Her voice went up in piteous appeal to heaven, then died out, for her sad heart stopped and the spirit: of Joan of Are had ascended amid the smoke and ashes.
The only smoke so far around our school mistress was when she dusted the caboose of Johnnie Ellis pants.
If the above plot meets with your approval 1 will get comrade Clodfeltor to throw in poetical form for tho Journal. 1 will linger around the scene of rebellion until all signs of eruption have disappeared. Respct. CAPT. NILES.
Family Eeuniou The Swanks. On Tuesday Dec. 1st. there was given a birthday dinner at the home of Pres. Swank in honor of mother, Aunt Poly Swank, who was on that day 74 years old. The relatives and neighbors to the number of 75 gathered in during the forenoon with well filled baskets and in proper time spread asumptous table, at which her 7 children and their consorts 41? grand children and great grand children partook of the good things. The pleasure of the day was greatly increased by the presence among us of Edward Jamtfs and Joseph James, of Vermillion county, Ind. who have not visited here since 1848. Among the elder people present were Aunt Rachael Cowan, aged 75 Andrew Swank, aged 07 Edwa-id James aged G3 Joseph James, aged G2: J. B. Swank, aged (32 Mary Swank, aged 57 Benjamin Swank, aged 55 Sarah Swank, aged 50 Millie McDonald aged 48: Amanda Dazey, aged 4"i C. A.

A Bad Runaway.
A team belonging to Cal Hall broko loose fjom in front of Music Hall Monday afternoon and dashed wildly down (Ireen street toward the Central school building imperiling the lives of tho hundreds of children returning from school. The team kept the middle of the street until they reached the iron fence in front of the school building when they dashed right through it, destroying some fifty feet of it. The horses ran entirely around the building and finally brought up on the largo rock south of tho building. The wagon was totally demolished and the harness torn into ribbons. It was a miracle that no one was killed.
Lucky Wabash.
Old Wabash College is again in luck_ Last Thursday morning at Chapel Dr. Tuttlo announced that thero was a package in tho express office containing 820,000 which had been donated to tho college by a modest friend who desired his name withheld. The donor stipulates that the fund is to be used only to endow a chair of astronomy and for the fitting up of an observatory. This moilwill consequently be put out on interest until $30,000 or more are raised for the same end, which will afford Wabash a department second to none in tho west.
Annual Rabbit Hunt.
Last Wednesday a gaily bedecked wagon containin 513 rabbits rolled into the city and attracted much attention. The dead bunnies were the result of a match hunt in Ripley township on Tuesday in which two parties, one captained by James Galloway and the other by Taylor Thompson, participated. The entire party bagged 513 of the little animals. Thompson's party securing the largest number and consequently entitled to all the rabbits killed by both sides.
The jury in the Overton cow case after being out nearly 24 hours, this mornpg returned a verdict for the defendant. We understand that Mr. Overton's attorneys will lake an appeal, at one and continue the fight against the I. 15. iV W. railroad. Frankfort ('resent.

A $50,000 COLLISION.
Two Monon Freight Trains Make An Un-
succossful Effort to Pass Each
Other on the Same Track. Last Tuesday morning at 9 o'clock at a point just north of the city, near the rod bridge over Sugar Creek, the Monon suffered one of the most disasterous accidents in the history of the road. A through north bound freight train heavily laden with coal, Bedford stone, two cars of hogs, etc., left tho Monon station at 9 o'clock with orders to run to Lafayette "regardless." Tho train was known as No. 74, but owing to heavy traffic has been this week running in two divisions. At Lafayette tho engineer of tho local freight, due hero at 8 a. m., ro ceived ordors which read "meet 2nd 74 at Crawfordsville." Tho order was blotted and illegibly written and tho engineer and conductor read it "meet No. 74 at Crawfordsville" instead of "2nd 74" which gave them the right of way to Crawfordsville. The regular meoting place of No. 71 and the local is at Cherry Grove but the former is often late and they pass here. When the through freight started wildly down the steep grade which extends from tho depot to the bride Engineer Spoor and Firemen Boriff were suddenly paralyzed with horror when they seen the local descending the heavy grade on the opposito side of the bridge at lightening speed. Knowing it would be impossible to stop the heavy train in time to avert the disaster the engineer on No. 74 reversed his engine and then he and the fireman jumped for their lives and escaped with but few scratches. Engineer Henderson of the local had quite a different experience. The moment his eyes sighted the rapidly approaching train he exercised that power which few people possess under such circumstances. great presence of mind. He estimated that if the two trains maintained there then relative rates of speed that: the collision would occur right on Red I Bridge over Sugar Creek. Grasping tho throttle he pulled it wide open and sent! his train at a terrific speed over tho bridge. Just as the caboose cleared the structure the collision occurred. Fire-1 mar. Coddiugtou jumped and received sever*.* injuries, but Henderson remained at his post and when the crash came was hurled many feet into the air and was buried under the debris. He' received serious but no* necessarily fatal injuries, his thigh being broken and his head badly cut. He was brought to the home of Agent Watson inthiscity where he at present lies. When the iron monsters mot they reared upon their hind trucks and then crushed through each other, both rolling down the steep embankment a shapeless twisted mass of iron and steel, not a whole piece remaining save the drife wheels. The heavily laden cars came right on and fourteen of them wore demolished. Two cars contained hogs. Eleven of them were killed outright. In the caboose on the local were J. S. Bennett and wife, and O. D.
Thomas, of Linden. Bennett and wife luckily escaped with a pretty severe shaking up, but Thomas was badly though not dangerously hurt. Mordell, a brakeman, was pretty badly injured about the head and legs by jumping from the top of tho cars down the steep embankment. The loss is enormous, being fully $50,000 or more. Altogether it was ono of the most disastrous wrecks financially that the road has ever suffered. The afternoon and night passengers were sent around from tho junction to Lafayette via Coifax. The wreck train was soon on the seen and by Wednesday none the track was cleared and trains
Mrs. Doherty Wins Her Case. The Doherty vs. llobb and Street case was settled in tho Carthage, Mo.. circuit court last Tuesday. Tho case involved tho title of 100 acres of valuable mineral lands in that state now in possession of Rabb and Street. The court decided that Mrs. Sarah O. Doherty was entitled to possession of the land but to take it she must pay to John B. Robb the sum of S5,500. The land is worth many times that amount and the amount will be paid very readily. Mr. Robb will appeal the case to the Supreme Court.
