QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:

QUESTION.—What

dict

became

Arnold

Bene

The question is vague. If you mean to ask where he went after the Revolution, we answer to England, where he died, in the utmost neglect. If you mean to ask where he went after death, we can only answer we don't know, but our supposition would be that he took the road Burns feared Holy Willie did.

QUESTION.—What is meant by the word Jacobin ANSWER.—The term was used to designate a set of violent revolutionists, in Franee, who sought to control the proceedings of the National Asscmbh", during the Revolution of 1789, by secret meetings.

QUESTION.—Has it ever been satisfactorily demonstrated that wheat turns to cheat

ANSAVEK.—Not to the minds of most persons. The most intelligent and observing farmers are divided on this subject.

QUESTION—Is a note signed by one member of a partner 3hip, without the consent of the others, binding on the firm'?

ANSWER.—It depends on what the note is given for If a member of a law firm should buy a horse and give a firm note, it would not bind the firm, but if he gave a note for law books, it would. The principle is easily inferred from this example.

QUESTION.—What is the origin of the term "honeymoon/' ANSWER.—Honeymoon, among the aiicients, was a beverage prepared with honey, such as that known as mead, or metheglin, in. England, and was deemed a luxurous drink. It was a custom to drink of diluted honey for thirty days, or a moon's age, after a wedding feast and hence arose the term "honeymoon," of Teutonie origin.

QUESTION.—Was it actually asserted, in the celebrated Dred Scott decision, that negroes have no rights which white people are bound to respect?

ANSWER.—It was not directly asserted as the opinion ot the Court that such was the case, but the language used seems to have been intended to convey that idea. It is as follows "They (the negroes) had, for more than a century before, (the Declaration of Independence) been regarded as beings of an inferior order, and so far inferior that they had no rights which the white man was bound to respect."

QUESTION.—How many Generals did Indiana furnish during the war ANSWER.—According to the Report of Adjutant General Terrell, Indiana furnished three Major Generals, twenty-one Major Generals by Brevet, thirty-three Brigadier Generals, and fifty-three Brigadier Generals by Brevet. The Major Generals were Lew Wallace, R. H. Milroy, and J. J. Reynolds.

QUESTION.—Has Sunday ever intefered with the inauguration of a President of the United States?

ANSWER.—Yes. Zachary Taylor was inaugurated on Monday, the 5th of March, 1849.

QUESTION.—What year and date was Indiana admitted into the Union ANSWER.—Indiana was erected into a Territory in 1809, and admitted as a State on the 11th of December, 1810.

Births, marriages and deaths in an Oregon journal, are arranged under the respective heads of "Come," "Fixed to stay," and "Gone."

Three Englishmen have made the. trip from London to Brighton, fifty miles, on velocipedes.

Kentucky is going into the artificial fish culture.
