HOCKER , Monroe JOHN II.HAI.K Geneva Et'GENE MORROW l.lan Grove —lt is now thought that there will be no world's fair in this country in 1883. —The Indianapolis Herald has been “wanting to see” the devil get his dues ! now for about nineteen consecutive ‘ weeks. —The Indianapolis Revi'ic thinks a whipping-post entertainment would draw a larger crowd at fifty cents admission than a Lull fight —Adam Forepaugh, the showman, has received 250 photographs of “pret- ; ty girls,” and out of that number a Miss Scott, of Monongahela City, says the New York Clipper, is the prettiest and will probably receive the prize, SIO,OOO. —We supposed that everything was running along smoothly in the Repub lican camp of Decatur, but there are whisperings, loud and deep, against the actions of some local politicians, and especially does Majah Steele come in for a good-sized share of the curses. There is a hen on, boys, and we are told that some of our Decatur Republicans purpose doing the cackling.

—The president has finally decided to not call congress in extra session. One day he thought he would, then on the following day he thought he wouldn't,and so onin this mannerdid he keep ehanging his mind for nearly two weeks. The fact is rapidly dawning upon the minds of the American people that the pen-pictures of Gen. GaiiFibi.d, portrayed by Democratic editors, were more truthful than poetical. —Tom Foster, the senator from Allen county, is so run down and played out that he now resorts to the columns of the Fort Wayne Gazette, the paper that has made him appear more ridiculous than he really is (if such a thing be possible), for defense of his accidental existence. Some years ago Foster was driving a delivery wagon for a Fort Wayne grocery house, and while thus engaged he asked one of the clerks “how much a half-dozen was.”

—No honest, candid man can fail to realite the fact that the so-called Republican party is destitute of every semblance of principle, honor and self-! respect. The action of this party for the past few days might seek in vain the pages of history from time immemorial for a parallel. It was right and proper that the English should reward ' Benedict Arnold for turning traitor to a people with whom they were at wa r , but for the Republican party to sacrifice principle, honor and self-re-spect by bribing a member of the Unit cd States senate can be truthfully recorded as the most dishonorable and outrageous act of any party or oganization in the world's history. We refer ’ to the bribing of Maiione, the repudiationistfrom Virginia. With this man's vote cast with the Republican side of the senate on all party issues the result ' would be a tic, leaving the vice-presi- ! dent to cast the deciding vote. Unfor- ‘ tunately our United States senate has a little patronage to dispose of, and with this patronage the vote of Maiione was purchased. Maiione was a ■ rebel in the rebel armies. For aught I we kuow many a brave Union soldier bit the dust from bullets fired by this same Mahons, but to-day he stands up in the senate chamber of the United States a shining light in the Republican party. lie is taken into full membership and the patronage of the body to which he belongs is placed at his disposal. For this betrayal of party trust and unparalleled treachery the president of the United States presented him with a bouquet of flowers. But in view of President Garfield character and pub- j ic record his action in this disgraceful iffair is by no means surprising. It so ' ■haraeterizes his own life that he no ' ioubt felt like publicly complimenting |

i true companion. Yet in the hurly-, lurly of American life the fact that, the most powerful political organisation on the face of the globe got down nto the very quagmire of politics in its icramble for a few insignificant -fi ,es will aoon be forgotten, and the campaign orator will #ocn be telling the dear people to vote for the party of principle, the party of honor, the party that never betrayed a trust, and the E tarty that gives the poor man employ sent. Already the gutter-snipe sbeeti over the country are praising the Vir "inia traitor for “standing aloof frun party ties 1” How long the America ...de will be duped by those oily tongued political confidence men tim done will reveal.

— There is much unpleasantness already in President Garfield’s cabinet, and it is thought that either James or McVeigh will resign ere the first year closes. But let not Democrats seek to derive any consolation from this fact, for although the leaders of the Republican party quarrel among themselves when it comes to paying out money for campaign purposes and voting they are never tardy. Time furnishes incontrovertible proof that dissatisfaction in the ranks of the Republican party fails to materially interfere with its chances at the ballotbox.

i Kieaolutloiit. . Decatur lad., March 25,1881. 1 Be it remembered, That at a special ’ meeting of the Fourth Quarterly Con- ' fereuce of the M. E. church, held at I i Decatur, Indiana, on the 23rd day of i ; Marell, 1881, the following resolutions ! were unanimously adopted, viz : Whereas. Our Bro. J. B. Carns has ; labored ably, faithfully and efficiently j in this charge as pastor, for three years ; last past, and has by his labors, assist--1 ed t>y his estmable lady, built up the I interest of the M. E. church at Deea- ' tur, Ind., spiritually aud financially, 'j and, [ Whereas, Under the rules of the i M. E. church, Bro. Carns can no longer I be retained by us in his present posi- ' tion as pastor; therefore. Resolved, That we, the official memI bers of said church in special conference assembled, hereby tender to Bro. J. B. Carns and his esteemed lady our j heartfelt thanks for their efficient work I among our people, and that we regret I that they are thus compelled to separate from us; and, Resolved, That we hereby recommend Bro. Carni and lady to all charges , and people to which and among whom they may go as able, faithful and efficient I workers’ in Christ, and we wish them ! God speed in all their work. Resolved, That a copy of these reso- j lutions be presented to Brother Carns, and that a copy be published in the Western Christian Advocate. E. A. Huffman, Sec'y. Kienes Tviiiiiii Eaiy Grasp. The formal announcement has been ■ ' made of the opening of the now South I era route to the Pacific coast, via the j Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe and Southern Pacific Railroads, opening up she richest mineral section in the Union, and through trains are now running regularly from Kansas City, passing through the gold and silver mining regions of NStv Mexiso and Arizona. Following this comes the glad tidgs that the Chicago, Burling- I ton & Quincy and Hannibal & St. > Joseph Through Line has put on a fast train, to run every day between Chicago and Kansas City, leaving Chicago at 9:05 in the evening, the entire train running through to Kansas City, making direct connection with the through train, via the new route for New Mexico, Arizona, San Francisco, and all points in Southern California. This is the first and only train that has ever run between Chicago and Kansas City. It is cotnposed of Pullman Palace sleeping cars, parlor cars with reclining chairs, smoking cars with revolving chairs and the famous C., B. & Q. dining cars. In every detail of its appointment this new fast express will be equal to the renowned Pacific trains of the Burlington route, the popularity of which has become so widely known as to secure for it over 85 per cent, of the California travel. The enterprise which keeps the C., B. & Q. and 11. & St. Joe through line always at the head, is indeed worthy the hearty support of the traveling public. OECAT I a Ji AK Si ETS.

REWI DISEASED SPECIAL BY 08. A. B. JAMISON. Who is permanently located at Decatur, j — Sati-ifactiGH Guaranteed! PILES--NO CURE, N 3 PAY 1 Os the many cases I am now treating and have examined 1 find it a common notion of the sufferers “that they have the ‘ Piles.” They write, send or ask for medicine for the Piles. You can net tell, nor could I, if I mo not make an eiamiution. You wouldjusi as likely be right to call all trouble of the : Reotum Cancer aa to call it the you have a sore throat you deaire to know wlmt kind—Diptheria, Tonsillitis; if fever —Bilious, Lung, Brain, Typhoid, etc., then , you have an idea of the danger. Then why call every trouble of the Rectum Piles? Hundreds of young men and women aad older persons go to their grave from Rec.al diseases—most likely Ulceration or Cancer—and the so called Pilea are not accused of murder. Never say you have the Piles unless sorr# phj’eician tells you so, or any o'.her difficulty; and know how high—one. taro or three inches—and how mueh surface diseased. One half of the cases I am called on to examine or treat have no Piles at all. but a disease a thousand time worse. I find many troubled with Piles, Tabs and Ul curation 1 have yet to find a simple case of Piles without ulceration. Dr. Allingham says “Ulceration extending above the internal sphincter, and fro quently situated entirely above that muscle, is not so very uncommon a disease; it inflicts great misery upon the putiem, and, if neglected, leads to conditions quite incurable, aad the patisnt dies of ex-hawho-n unless extraordinary means are reaortc.’! te. In the earliest stages of the malady careful, rational and prolonged treatmei.t is often successful and the patient is restored te health ; I wish 1 could say the same of the severe and long-standing cases. Ulceration of the rectum can only be mistaken for malignant diseases. * * As the earlier manifestations are fairly amenable to treatment, it is of the urwoer importance that the disease should be roengnized early.” I believe it to he malignant, and have casts that speak for themselves. If you have any trouble come in lime and Bad out your danger. Find outjhow roach your head, msmory, heart, lungs, stomach, liver, kidneys, bowels, bladder, wemb, back and legs are troubled from your diseased Rectum. I oould nun? many person# that I am now treating who have some one or two organs derang d and have spent u great deal of money to no purpose, because it poes not reach tho cause es trouble. I Guarakyke the Cent of Piles. Should I fail, 1 will pay your Railroad and Hotel Bills, return every cent you have paid, and make you a present of Omk HrstRKD Dollars. Examination free to ail.

Going over it both wavs it . cut it up like an ash heap.” For further particulars or information call on or address lhe agent.
