jgr It is to bo regretted that a schism has arisen in tho Democratic party, Binco tho Fall elections. That «ld party, once so powerful and exacting, through tho influence of bad leaders and the adoption of worse principles, has already become reduced to a skeleton, yea, is passing through tho last stages of a final collapso. An attempt has beon made to galvanize the little "suspended animation," still left in it, by adding to its catalogue of principles, the doctrine of negro «uf-

Hail, uuu

Uorsed and re-echoed by a portion of the faithful. Which wing will preponderate, time will have to develop. While this disintegrating process is going on, tho Union Republican party lire preparing to placo the destinies of the country on a solid foundation, a base so firm that tho storms of fanaticism, treason and corruption may astail, but never can move. Good bye, Copperheads—you are numbered with the things of tho past.

jgr S. K. Hannegan has received his commission as Inspector of tho 7th District."—Herald.

Hannegan was arrested about three years ago at Indianapolis for hurrahing for Jeff. Davis on the street in that city, and locked up in the guardhouse until next morning, when ho was turned over to the Mayor by whom he was fined. He is good material for a Johnson office-holder, but it does seem strange that a blatant rebel should bo put in oflico over loyal men.—Sullivan Co. Union.

This is away Andy has of making treason odious." Men of this character generally sell out to traitors.

INDECENT HASTE.—It

WILLIAMS,of

Lafayette, Cop

perhead, has received tho appointment of Collector for this District. Republicans who sold themselves to A. Johnson for "bread and butter,' must feel flattered in witnessing such copperhead preferences. Bow your heads in shame, ye renegades.

WST Hon. H. C. Newcomb, editor of the Indianapolis Journal, is very generally spoken of as a candidate for the speakership of the next House of Representatives of the Indiana Legislature. Ho has our best wishes for suc-

.. Grant and Andy.

It appears that the interview of Gen. Grant with tho President, which occurred week before last in regard to the question of amnesty and suffrage, was of a very earnest and significant eharacter- It is understood that the General took strong grounds against the scheme as an ufetterl}* unsafe one upon which to restoro tho robels to power, and further that he urged Mr. Johnson to accept and recommend the Constitutional amendments as a fair endjuBt plan of reconstruction. He took tho ground that tho peoplo had declared for it in unmistakable terms «t tho elections, and that it would be exceedingly useless to disregard their wishes as thus expressed.

To all this it is said tho President listened without indicating his own views, but causing a decided improsiion upon the mind of tho General that' his advice had not produced tho least effect.

It is known thatGon. Grant is of the opinion that enough of the Southern States would immediately ratify the amendment to make it a part of tho Constitution, provided Mr. Johnson nhould give it his support.

J6@r A correspondent writes from Indiana to inquiro into the truth of tho statement of the Lacrosse (Wis.) Democrat that Wilkes Booth was alivo in July last. Wo aro very much disposed to believe that tho assassin met the fate usually assignod to him, in April, 1865. If ho oscaped, however, tho editor of the Democrat, the •notorious "Brick" Pomeroy, is as likely to bo informed as any one, having himself suggested Mr. Lincoln's murdor months before it took place. The probable meaning of tho Democrat is thAt Booth was alivo in July, and is alivo still, in the Copperhead party, which is composed of his sympathizers.. Though dead in the flesh, ho survives in that infamous organization. It is tho duty of all good men to hunt it down to political death as did Boston

Two sharp and knavish Ger

mans havo beon defrauding the Government in a manner that shows them to be adepts in tho sci?.uce of swindling. Establishing several burning fluid" manufactories in tho neighborhood of Now York, they turned out immense quantities of tho article, which subsequently, by a siuiplo chemical process, was eouveried into alcohol. The magnitude of tho swindle may be inferred from the fact that the tax on alcohol is two dollars per gallon, while burning fluid is duty free.

Cider no Longer a National Drink

From tho Council Bluffs (Iowa) Nonpareil.

In tho recently published case of tho State of Iowa ya. Baldy, one of tho grounds of appeal was the misconduct of a juror in retiring from tho jury room, in charge of the bailiff, for a necessary purpose, and who, whilo thus separated from tho balance of tho jury, wont to a grocery and purchased some tobacco, and procured and drank a glass of ale. For this misconduct tho Court reversed tho judgment and romanded tho case for a new trial. In delivering tho opinion of tho Court, Justice Colo took occasion to say "That at common law tho jury wero kept together without meat, drink, fire or candle, unless by permission of the Judge, but that this rule has been so far modified in this country, fhat the jury may, of course, and without any special permission from the Judge, have water, firo and lights, but the permission of tho Judge is requisite for meal or board. But that at any time has it ever been declared that even with the permission of tho Judgo, could the jury have spirituous liquors, or cider, which was at ono time considered as a national drink, but now, happily, by reason of its stimulating qualities, guno into comparative disuse."

Josh Billings on Owls. Josh Billings says of owls.: Burds is God's clioriestors. Tew tho lion ho gave majesty, tow tho elephant, strength, tow tho fox cunning, and tow the tiger deceit. But to the burds, his pets, ho gave buty and song.

And nono so blest as tho owl The owl is a game burd ho can whip anything that wears feathers— aftor dark. lTo io a xt'iov burd, and hoots musi things.

He in a sollem burd, across botween a justice of a peace and a county supervisor.

Ho i& a stiff burd, and sits up as stiff as an exclamation point. He is a luxurious burd, and feeds on spring chickens.

He is a long-lived burcj., and never was known to take death naturally. Ho is a hardy burd, and grope tuff by bileing.

He is a honestburd,arid alwuz shows an open countenance. Ho is a prompt burd, and satisfizoat onst his oustanding bill.

He is a comfortable bill, gnd alwuz sleeps in feathers. He is an attentivo burd, and durin tho day can always be found in.

He is a festivo burd, and don't come homo till morning. Thus tho owl is a mistaken emblem of solitude and sadness, if wo dig into his natur closely, is emphatically one of tho boys, and belongs to the club.

Another Haunted House in Chicago. Thoro is another haunted house excitement in Chicago, this lime on Michigan avenue, near Eighteenth street, in tho south part of tho city. The house is occupied by Thomas Baker and family, who came here a few months ago. Baker is in the mercantile business hero, and bears a good reputation for veracity. Tho most astoundiug revelations aro said to occur in and around his dwelling, rivalling anything of tho kind yet seen or heard, the mystery being thoroughly investigated.

The demonstrations on West Randolph have ceased, the former occupants of tho haunted rooms having moved to another tenement.

Great Excitement Reported—The British Authorities Thoroughly Acquainted tilth the Fenian Pl^ns.

Some" of the following statements, in a Dublin letter of November Cth to the New York World, seem to gain support from tho announcement of fresh arrests of Fenians in Ireland, contained in our cablo dispatches of Saturday

The Fenians In Ireland. SPECIAL NOTICES.

^. r.

Affairs in Ireland at present are in tho most uncertain stato they have been for many years. The poople are in a stato of excitement bordering on madness, tho Government is bewildered and perplexed, the military authorities are drilling and maneuvering, tho police aro arresting and locking up, tho prison officials aro complaining of want of accommodation, and the civic dignitaries aro afiserting thoro is no cause for alarm.

I know not if Jaines Stephens bo a spy—I think not many hero assert ho is but I do know that overy plan and every action of the Fenian organization is mado known to England and not only that, but if she liked she could at this critical moment lay her finger on ovorv Fenian in Ireland. You may ask mo ho#Js this, and why sho docs not arrest them. You may say England boasted of this knowledge months ago, and yet was palpably at fault. Even so, but sinco that time, within tho last threo weeks, tho British authorities havo been put possession of information that, if Fenianism be treason, and if the punishment of treason bo death, would consign one half of tho male adult population of tho country to tho gallows. Then why sho docs not do so I will afterward show. Permit mo now to state a point. Some fivo weoks ago, a man came to this country, Sutton or Dutton,I can't say which, by name. Ho was said to be tho accredited agent of Stephens hero, and vested by him with full power intrusted by him with all the secrets of tho organization. This man has been bought, and is at this moment doing tho work, not for which ho was sent here by James Stephens to do, but that for which ho is paid by tho British Government.

As the first of January approach cs, tho hopes of the Fenians aro rising. They have no doubt but that Stephens will fulfill his promiso of coming back to Ireland, and there i3 a rumor here that he is already on his way. Though tho Government has undoubted facilities for procuring information as regards the working of Fenianism here, unfortunately I am not so well situated. I can, through certain officials hero, hear of tho movements of the Government but, oven though your correspondent,"! cannot bid sufficiently high for unscrupulous traitors. Their figuro is rather too lofty for my exchequer. However, I can put you in possession of sumo few important facts. During tho last six weeks no less than 1(5,000 revolvers have been distributed through tho Fenian Circles in Ireland. These weapons havo beon in the city stored for some timo, having beon purchased by James Stephens from an English manufacturing house. This will probably explain his seeming reluctance to account for moneys received from John Mitchell.

Tho various barracks in and about Dublin aro being put in a stato of defense. These preparations aro not confined to Dublin and its environs. Similar works-aro being erected throughout the provinco. Traleo Barracks is being greatly strengthened Limerick tho same way, and a large number of men are engaged in strengthening the old fortifications of Athlono Castlo. ....

"PREPARE

FOR TIIE

WINTER."—The

onl3* joko that Lieut. Gen. Grant was ever known to perpetrato, was one day during his campaign in Mississippi, when tho rebel general, Winter, was coming up to attack ono of tho wings of his army, where tho Commander-in-Chief happened to bo himself presont. "Gentlemen," said Gen. Grant, quietly knocking the ashes from his cigar, and looking around at tho officers near him, "you seo a sevcro Winter approaching, and I advise you to have tho boys keep up a good fire.''

The Great Agitator.

It is reported that Wondcll Phillips is prepa ring a most bitter and sarcastic lecture on Horaco Greeley. It is said that Phillips takes tho position that the man Greeley, in whom the people trust, does not exist. He is the most over-estimated and misunderstood public character in tho country. Mr. Phillips is a terrible scold.

Tho United States revenuo offi

cers havo made seizures of an immense amount of sherry and other wines, and silks and ribbons, imported into Now York, for frauds upon tho Government. Heavy seizures have also beon mado in California and Now Orleans. Tho, whole amount of property thus seized is worth probably $1,700,000.

Brilliant Victory of the hiberals Capture of Oxaca—Three Thousand Prisoners Taken.

NEW YORK,

November 26.—A cor

respondent, dating City of Mexico, gives an account of tho capture of Oxaca by tho Liberals under Gen. Diaz. The garrison of tho city consisted of about eighteen hundred men. who bravely defended it against three times their number.

An attempt to" reinforce tho garrison was made by 600 Belgians and 400 native troops, but Diaz intercepted and captured the relief party.

In the meantimo some five hundred Austrians from Tehuantepec forced their way through Diaz's lines into the city, and thus reinforced the garrison and kept up the fight for several weeks repelling attacks noarly every day.

Diaz fought his way through the city, and obtained possession of tho place, but for sevoral days was unable to make any effect upon the forts of St. Domingo and Elearben, until tho 3lst ultimo, when he forced the enemy to surrender.

The number of prisoners is between 2,000 and 3,000, and the call for the Convention is called on tho part of the Imperialists, among others, by Baron Enriquo Egero and Count Alberto De

Ivarmen. A large supply of military
