As per announcement the Union Central Committee of this county met in Oawfordsvillc on Tuesday last, and decided upon
1
SATURDAY, MAY 16, 1868,
as the most suitable daj* for holding a Count}' Convention to nominate a count}* ticket—Senator, Representative, Treasurer 'Real Estate Appraiser, etc. It is also suggested that the Union voters of the several townships meet in Township
Convention on Saturday, May 9th, for 'the purpose of appointing delegates to said convention, and if they see proper, instruct them as to how they shall vote.
It is also suggested that the basis of representation in County Convention be one vote for each fifty votes polled for Morton in 1864, and an additional vote 'for a fraction of twenty-five. This will •give

To tlie Patrons of tlae Journal. ..Tlie material and good will of the -JOURNAL has been transferred to Messrs.
MCCAIN & HENDRICKS, who will in the -future conduct its columns. It is to be hoped that the change will prove satisfactory to every reader. The new firm -will in a short time have new power presses, new material, and all the appertainments of a first-class news and job office. One of the firm will start immediately to Cincinnati, for the purpose of purchasing the necessary material for enlarging and otherwise improving the appearance of the paper. As soon as it can possibly arrive the improvements '.will be made. Until then the reader a will bear patiently with its short-com-ings.
We have no time for further particulars, but will remark that the new proprietors are men of ability, genuine Republicans, and will furnish the patrons of the JOURNAL a paper worthy of their support." Yaladictory next week.
"George Noble, a young man about 20 years of age, and deputy clerk of Wayne county, .yesterday committed suicideby shooting himself through the heart. lie was unusually lively up to within a few hours before he committed the deed He stepped into the vault and fired the fatal shot and died in a few moments thereafter. He bore a good character -and was highly x*pspected. He was a son of the late Thomas G. Noble, for many years Clerk of Wayne county, and a half brother of Gen. Laz. Noble, the present able clerk of the Supreme Court.
The family have the sympathy of a large circle of friends throughout the State.
Soldiers'Bounties.
—1sWiii. Hanneman, Indiana" Military Agent, desires us to say to those having bounties due them, not to dispose of them for less than their value as they will be paid in a very few months. Congress has authorized the appointment of fifty additional clerks in the second Auditors Office which will insure the settlement in short time.—Ind. •Journal,..
THE lieview of last week claims the result of the township election as a Democratic victory. ^We differ from that journal most emphatically, for it was not a Democratic'victory!? That is something that party has not had in this township for a number of years. It was an election of Democratic candidates by Republican voters. We would like to call the attention of our Republican friends to the result of their labors of that day. By reason of dissatisfac tion in the nominations, some of our own men who have always labored hard for the success of our ticket went over to the Democracy, and giving their candidates their support assisted the enemy in electing their men, and now the lie. view brings out its chicken and in large leaders claims the election of its candidates as a Democratic victory. It is not thankful for the favors received from Republican hands, but takes unto them selves all the credit of. the occasion. Now
Ave
ask our Republican friends how
they like the state of things. We arc glad we were not of the number, and are sorry if they could not support our men they did not let the matter alone. We know not what may be the feeling of our men who acted thus, but it seems to us they cannot congratulate themselves over the matter much, especially as they receive no thanks and no credit for their services on the other side.
City Offices.
On Monday last the Republicans balloted for candidates for the various city offices, and indicated their choice by nominating
For Mayor, JOHN SPEED. For Marshal, W. II. MARTIN. For Clerk, T. D. BROWN.. For Treasurer, WILLIAM BURBRIDGE. The nominees are all good and true men, and the Republicans should see to it that they are elected. ,vi
BOWEN, in the last lieview, asserts that we "cut off the heads of every rooster in our barn-yard." This is a grave mistake. Ever since BOWEN moved into our neighborhood our chickens have roosted very high. Wonderful instinct.
We clip the following from the Indianapolis Herald: It is currently reported and generally believed that the Indianapolis fe Craw-' fordsvillc Railroad has been bought up by disinterested parties, the work upon it stopped, and that the road is to be abandoned.
Things begin to look pretty squally, and the Crawfordsvillc folks, some of them at least, think there is more truth than poetry in the report. How is it Mr Journal ?—Ladoga Herald.
All right. The work on the road is suspended every day at noon for the hands to take dinner. For further particulars enquire at Valley City.
A Democrat "at our elbow suggests" that if they carry Union township at another election, they will have to procure another editor for the bond-holder's lieview, as CHARLIE takes too much of MIKE SELLERS' laughing gass to sur vive long. Snakes!
Riot.
The Lafayette Courier contains an account of a dreadful riot, said to have occurred in our city on the first Monday in April. This is news to us, as nothing of this kind occurred. Some of the Cop.'s were a little hilarious, having taken too much of the platform, but nothing in the nature of a riot was visible. Wonder who hoaxed the Courier man
The question is canvassed in Ohio whether, if Senator Wade becomes acting President by the conviction and removal of Mr. Johnson, there will be a vacancy in the representation of Ohio in the Senate, to be filled by the Legislature. Mr. Vallandighain thinks there will but the better opinioiris that there will not. If Mr. Wade becomes acting President, it will be solely because he is President of the Senate—and he holds that office only as a Senator. If he ceases to be a Senator, he will ipso facto cease to be President of the Senate, and cannot, therefore, be acting President. It seems quite clear that his office as Senator will not be vacated in case of the President's conviction.
A Fatal Spree Among Officers. The Lawrence (Kansas) liepublican publishes the following communications "In the winter of 1861-1 was stationed at Vicksburg, Miss. While there the officers were idle, and drank, as usual, a great deal of bad liquor. One night, when on one of our protracted sprees, in a hall on Washington street, Capt. Jessup and Capt. Sholes thought they would play "William Tell." Sholes measured off ten paces, planting himself against the wall, telling Jessup to shoot a tin cup which he placed upon his head. Jessup was known as the best pistol shot in the regiment, but remonstrated a little against running such a risk of life, but was prevailed upon by Sholes to try his skill. He fired, and just as he pulled the trigger, Sholes ^raised himself up a little and the ball penetrated his forehead, killing him instantly. I knew Jessup for more than a year afterward. He was almost a raving maniac, to think he had killed his best friend, all for nothing else than having too much whiskv aboard."
Impeachment.
The twelfth day of the5' impeachment trial closed Saturdaj'. It was by farf^he most exciting and spirited session of the court thus far. Adjutant General Thomas finished the second and last installment of his voluminous testimony. The aim of this gentlemen, from the tone of his testimony, appears to have been to make the charges look frivolous b}' investing the subject with a hilarious facetionsness far-fetched and not befitting. The relish of his humor was neutralized however by -the prolixity of his answers and his fullness of detail. When the Adjutant General had finished, Lieutenant General Sherman was introduced as a witness for the defense. The War Department portfolio had been offered General Sherman before Thomas was induced to accept it but General Sherman, much as he might have delighted in triumphing over his enem3r, the present Secretary of War, was too sagacious to put himself in the ridiculous plight that the Adjutant General afterward did.
Mr. Stanbery's purpose in introducing General Sherman as a witness was to prove by conversations had by General Sherman with the President the object of the latter in his endeavors to rid himself of Stanton. But the Senate, by overruling the decision of the Chief Justice, decided testimony of that sort inadmissible. Mr. Stanbery persisted in questioning the witness to this same general effect, putting his questions in a variety of guises, and it was not until the objections of General Butler had been four times sustained, that he gave up the attempt as hopeless. The effect of Saturday's rulings is to make General Sherman useless to the defense^ as well as, it is believed, the Cabinet officers. The effect will therefore be to materially shorten the trial. Severa sharp encounters took place between General Butler and Mr. Stanbery, in which the cock-eyed hero generally had decidedly the advantage. In most re spccts Saturday was the most interesting day of the trial, and the weakness of the defense was never so prominently developed as on this day.—Indiana Journal.
Senator Sprague has been charged with being unfriendly to impeachment and with coinciding in the belief that the civil office tenure law is unconstitu tional. The New York Herald, an utterly reliable journal, publishes what purports to be the substance of a conversation between General Garfield and Senator Sprague, in which the latter took as radical a view of these questions as even Senotor Drake, of Missouri, could wish.
In Salem, Indiana, on Saturday night, a young desparado named Henry Clark, shot and fatally wounded an old and respectable citizen of that place, named George Telle. The ferocious youth also severely wounded a young man named Buena Vista Dunham. Clarke has been arrested and lodged in jail, and at last accounts the people were threatening to lynch him.

Gen. Miiroy Declines the Race for Congress. DELPHI, Ind., April 2, 1868, EDITOR COURIER
Through the partiality of friends mj' name has been mentioned as a candidate for Congress in the 7th District, and I had partially consented to its use, subject to the decision of. the Republican Congressional Convention. But from a recent reconuoissanceand reports Of scouts through the district, I have come to the conclusion that the majority of the Republican voters of this district do not require my services in that direction, and are unfavorable to swapping horses in the present crisis. Therefore, thanking friends who intended giving me their support, I hereb}' withdraw the use of my name in the Congressional scramble.
R. II. MILROY.
Gen. Grant and Temperance. The following is from the New York Sun. Mr Dana, the editor, was with Gen. Grant in the field nearly two years, and knows whereof he writes,.: "General Grant has been accused of intemperance. The copperheads fight him with talk about his alleged bad habit, just as the rebels fought him with powder and ball in war but the case is set right in a little speech which the Hon. W. E. Dodge made on Thursday evening! "Mr. Dodge said that he had just been in Washington, and had a long interview iwith General Grant, and, continued he, 'I left him with-the conviction that neither we nor the friends of temperance have any cause for anxiety in this respect.' Mr. Dodge .is President of the National Temperance Society, and no one can be more hostile to everything approaching intemperate habits in a public man. The truth is, that the practice.of General Grant is total abstnence. In camp he almost alone, among all the prominent officers of the army, never tolerated liquors or wine either at his table or about hie tent. Fatiguing marches and the excitement and exhaustion of battles did uot make him break over his rule, not to touch or taste anything alcliolic Again and again we have seen wine offered him at publie and private dinners, only to be steadily refused. We are assured that now, in. time of peace, and in the society of Washington, he still maintains the same custom. His enemies must invent some other story. The people will neiver believe that Gent Grant is a drunkard and if, from not personally knowing Grant, they are nor sure of the facts, they will answer as President Lincoln did: 'Let me know what kind of whisky Grant drinks, and I will send & barrel to every one. ol pur Generals."
A Sad Case.
"Passengers by the morning train from Cijpcintiati on the Cincinnati fc InjJianapojis road, were ^witnesses
pj
ft-, sad
spectacle, on lastf Monday Jmomirig. Upon the arrival of the trftin 'at Gjbeettfsburgh, the Sheriff, of the county come aboard, having in charge a young girl hot more than sixteen years of age, whom jie was taking to the lunatic asylum at Indianpolis. She had become derartged upon religious stibjects. She was greatly interested in a revival that was going on, and had worked herself up to a high degree of excitement. Her mind was taken up with religious mat ters to1 the exclusion of every other idea, and she would sit up all night reading her Bible and praying. About two weeks ago her brain gave way under the strain, and she is a hopeless lunatic.
She was so wild that it was necessary to tie her hands to keep her from doing herself an injury. She kept up a continual torrent of oaths and blasphemy, which sounded horrible contrasted with her child like and delicate appearance. She declared that they were taking her to hell and not to Indianapolis—Her mother, a feeble old lady, accompanied her nearly prostrated with grief at the calamity which had overtaken her child.
Southern Opinion of Gen. Grant. An ex Confederate in a note to an Atlanta paper writes: "Much has been said regarding the mental capacity of General Grant It will be remembered, that in 1864, when the Confederate Peace Commissioners went through the lines at Petersburg, Va., Mr. Stephens, the Rebel Vice President, was one of the Commissioners. He visited General Grant's headquarters at City Point, and was in company with the General several days. Upon his return to Richmond, he was asked all about General Grant, and his answer was, that General Grant was a man of no ordinary ability. Now who is more capable of judging human nature than Alexander H. Stephens V"
The Chaplain of the House, "on the day of impeachment, offered the following prayer: "In this great and solemn day in the history of the land, draw thou very near to all the public men to whom the destinies of the land are especially committed in this transaction. Grant iinto them especial wisdom for the special occasion, and may all the world be led to see, in the issue of this great trial, that righteousness prevails over passion and. predudice and party interests that everything here is decided on its merits as judged by the principles of eternal right, and may the land be presented as an example of one that does justice in the fear of God and with proper regard to the rights of the nation and the right of man.'
Notwithstanding all Mr.Thad. Stevens' brusqueness and contempt of the little men around lihn, many
stories are
told
of his benevolence and sympathy with suffering. Not long since, Avhile on his way to the Capitol, he met a poor woman in great distress. She told him that she had lost seventy-five cents, her market money and that she had nothing to buy food for her children. "What a lucky woman you are," said Mr. Stevens "I have just found what you have lost putting his hand into his pocket and giving her a five-dollar bill. A few days ago he was appealed to by a hard-wo vicing man, who said he could get no employment anywhere. "Weil," said Mr. Stevens, "I have none to give you, but you can consider jtmrsclf engaged by me whenever I have and with this he placed a liberal sum in his hand. These acts are spontaneous, and have brightened a lona and tumultuous life.
The latest Fenian stroke for Irish nationality is tins assassination in Ottawa, Canada, at about two o'clock on the 7tli inst., of Hon. Thomas. D'Arcy McGee, the well known Irish Anti Fenian member of the Canadian Parliament. Mr. McGee was just returniug from Parliament, and when on his own door step he Was shot by some unknown party and died instantly, his brains and blood bespattering the pavement. When the occupants of the house came to the spot there was not the slightest clue to the assassin. It is prett}' well known, however, that Mr. McGee was murdered by some member of the Fenian Society. Fears arc entertained in Canada that this foul deed is but the prelude to further atrocities of a similar character..
A St. Louis dispatch says that the unseasonable weather which has been prevailing for several days in Eastern Missouri and Southern aud Central Illinois, has given place to warm sunshine. Although much damage lias been done to the fruit in these sections tlie prospects are yet good for a fair yeild. ,1
Three of the Ottowa prisoners, arrested for complicity in the assassination of McGee, have turned Queen's evidence against W lialen, whose guilt is now beleived to be bej'ond question. His trail will take 'place in a few days!
TwO men in an open boat were picked up near Havana, the other da}'. They are supposed by the Cub,an authorities to be espa.ped prisoners from Dry Tortugas, and the fact that Grcnfel, the canspiator, escaped from that pTison not long since gives the .intelligence importance.'1^ -1
H—-—
It is asserted, in Washington that Jeff. Davis does not intend to return to Richmond if Mr. Wade succeeds to the White House, on the gronnd that the removal of Mr. Johnson will be unconstitutional, which will relieve him from his obligations to Mr. Johnson's administration to stand a trial.

A Democrat Convention of Iowa, resolved, ."That ifor the maintenance of the National credit, we pledge theThonor of the Democracy of Iowa.' This is about as poor seetfrity as wc ever heard of.
From the Frankfort Union Banner. CifCUU I^O«j£ClltO(-. Rj .R F.^Peirce, ffiq/£of Mojiitgonerjv was iri our town ojfc 4fy thia week, and. &s will be seen (Mr coliwnn ofjpnj^ Aouiicemettts, is afcaylidat# beforgjlthd' Union Canvention for the nomination* for Prosecutor for the 8th Judicial Circuit. Mr. Peirce-ia a--yonng lawyerr of fine legal attainments, a fluent speaker, and a sound, unflinching Republican. His nomination will add much to the strength and success of the Union party, as he proposes to make a thorough canvass, and Avill do all in his power in an honorable manp^r for the election of our candidates at tlie'fall election.
The present contest will be a fierce one, and if wc expect to succeed wc will have to be united and put forth our combined strength. The enemy is wide awake, vigilant, active and unscrupulous, and it is very important that we should have good and reliable standardbearers. There are many "Boys in Blue" in our county who were in Mr. Peirce's regiment during the war, and are unanimous in his praise. We do not wish to detract anything from the claims of other candidates for Prosecutor, but we think Clinton will give Mr. Peirce a solid vote in the convention.
Soldiers llounties.
The following Card of Mr. Ilannaman, General Military Agent of the State, will be of interest to all soldiei's: To the Editors of the Journal:
SIR :—It may be a matter pf interest to our soldiers, to know how soon their bounty claims will be paid. The following facts were obtained from the Paymaster General's Department, while on a recent visit to Washington, and may be relied on as correct.
Amount of claims filed up.to April, 1, 1868, 440,300/- Number paid or rejected 240,000 'leaving about 200,000 yet to be pasised upon. Thei'e was paid during March last, 27,000. ,,At least 25,000 per month will be paid, until all are disposed of.
Froia.the above, soldiers will see that it will be but a short timo .imtH-all are paid. WM. HANNAMAX.
The Democrats are already'plotting and boasting of the importation of three or four hundred railroad hands this fall to vote at the election. In the ordinary progress of the contract, no work would have been done west of Sugar creek in 1868. If the I. C. & D., railroad is to be prostituted to political purposes, by the unprincipled leaders in Covington, just let it be known and that dishonest game will be blocked.
Col. Sam. Wilson, of Crawfordsville, is the President, and has alwa3*s had the confidence of our people without regard to party. We hope he will permit no such tricks.
Republicans of Montgomery, this concerns 3rou also will you look to it Covington Free Press.
In the- state of Virginia, in 1851, a woman was indicted, tried and sentenced to two years imprisonment for teaching a slave to read. Tlie indictment read as follows "And the said ,not having the fear of God before her eyes, but moved and instigaated thereto by the devil, did teach a certain negro woman to read the Bible to the great displeasure of the Almighty God, etc."
It is reported that Mr. Lafe Woodward, the editor Of the Boone coimty Democratic organ at Lebanon lias suddenly changed his residence, taking along with him several hundred dollars of the funds entrusted to him for safe keeping and judicious disbursement by the confiding Democratic managers of that county. If this be true, it is the second bereavement in an editorial way that the trustful but shamefully misused Democracy of that county have sustained in three weeks.
