The Eagle. OFFICIAL PAPER OF THE COUNTY. DECATUR, INDIANA. FRIDAY, XO¥. 12,1869. THE KEWS. George Peabody, the great banker ,died at London recently, of ( congestion of the lungs. King Victor Emanuel was re- ■ ported lying nt the point of death , last Sunday. • The President has completed his ’ travels for the season and has an- ‘ nonneed he will accept no further j invitations this fall. 1 The House of Assembly of New 1 York, as figured at Albany, stands ‘. —Democrats, seventy-one; Rc- ] publicans, fifty-seven. I Incendiarism, riots and rapes J are almost of daily and nightly occurrence among the loyal ne . groes of Washington. The papers i a vigilance committee to I BO » ( regulate them. c i The draft of a new reciprocity , treaty between Canada and the < United States has been agreed up- ’ on by the representative! of the two countries, and will be submitted to Congress in December. It is said to be less liberal in its features than the one repealed three years ago. A large schooner arrived at Corinne, Utah, Nov. 3, from Stockton, a town on the southern shore ' of the lake, loaded with lumber, silver ore, etc. This is considered the inaugeration of the navigation of Salt Lake. Another bill will be presented ■ to Congress for a Government tel- < ••graph, similar in its provisions' ■ to the bill defeated last winter, but ' it is thought that it will have no ( more strength than it did last sts- < sion. During the last year 7,000,000, ’ COO acres of public lands were entered under the homestead law, yielding the government between ( four and five millions of revenue, i A telegram from Washington j states that Secretary Boutwell pro | poses to resume specie payments * on the Ist of January is pronounc- ■ , rd nntruc. lie rays, however, if j Congress legislates wisely specie- i < payments may be resumed nt an ’ early day, but he will name no j particular date. 1 lie Ninth Census. Next season the ninth decennial . census of the United States will: be made by the General Govern- ; ment In additien to the enumer- ’, ation of the .people, taking their ’ j ages and nativity, statistics ofour , agricultural productions, rnanufac-: ( lures, etc , will be required. To ! ] ensure something like accuracy I let our farmers set down now the j ( accurate number of acres cult!vat-1j rd, the amount of each crop raised i 1 during the year, including domes- I ticniiimnls, poultry, butter, cheese,! 1 fruits, vegetables, etc., raised dur ing the year ending June 30, next. If not attended to now, when called upon, it will be nearly impossi- < ble to answer the questions the 1 Marshal will piopound to you I correctly. He will be aroupd I sometime in June, and it our suggestion would be gennerallv heed- '' ed. the value of the statistics would , b* much enhanced by being near- j If correct, besides saving the I' census taker a world of time. ' Besides, it will a<ld twentyfive per cent to the produc-1 tions of the County, which carried j out over the whole United States, | would be of the utmost importance in making a correct showing of the wealth and resources of our country. • _ Mark! wain proposes a pleasant little job to Congress. He owns, he writes, n number of silver mines ••I own millions end millions of feet of affluent silver lodes in Nevada; in fact, I own the entire un- 1 der’ist of that country, ncarlv. ami if Congress would move that State off my property, so that I could get nt it, I would be wealthy vet." The singular fact is relited of Mr. Willitts. who was recently murdered in Detroit, that, on the •Isy on which he was killed, he obtained an insurance on his life for fin thousand dollars. for which he, not having the money by him at the time, gave Ids note He ' prtt the policy In his pocket where, after his death, a few jbonra later,! it was f.-»tfnd.

Thoughts on Saturday Night* Somebody gct§ off the following beautiful thoughts on the closing night of the week. There is a vol ume of truth and sense in them : “Saturday night makes people human, sets their hearts to beating softly, as they used to do before the world turned them into war drums and jarred them to pieces with tatoos. The ledger closed with a clash, the iron-doored vaults come to with a bang, up goes the shutters, click goes the key in the lock. It is Saturday night, and business breathes fr»e again. Homeward, ho! The door that has been ajar all week gently closes behind him, the world is all shut out. Shut out? Shut in. rather. Here arc his treasures as ter all, and not in the vault, and i not in the book—save the record of the old family Bible —and not I in the bank. May be you are a i bachelor, frqstv and forty. Then, poor fellow, Saturday night is nothing to you, just as you are nothing to anyl ody. Get a wife, blue-eyed or black-eyed ; but above all true-eyed. Get a little home, no matter how little, a sofa just to j hold two, or two and a half, and j then get the two. or two and a half . in it, of a Saturday night, and then : read this paragraph with the light j of your wife's eyes, and thank God and take courage.” The Benefit of Advertising.— A merchant in one of our northern cities lately put an advertisement in a paper headed : “Boy Want- [ ed.” The next morning he fpund a bandbox on his door-step, with this inscription on the top : "How will this one answer?" On opening it he found a nice, fat, chubby . looking specimen of the article he ! wanted, warmly done up in flannel ! The Marquis D'Orches offered a j prize of 20,000 francs to any per- ' son who would discover a practi j cal and cheap method of determin- ; ing actual death. This prize has : been gained by Dr. Caniere. His method is to place the hand of the subject before a light in a darken-1 cd room ; if the subject is not dead I the light will make the hand semi- ’ translucent with a rosy hue; but; if dead it will be perfectly opaque. . >- j A young Jewess, who recently j disappeared from San Francisco, now writes that she ran awayfiom I her parents in order to embrace the Roman Catholic religion. Excursion trains are called “pleasure tiains” in France. A gentleman in Cherbourg lately re- j ceived a dispatch by telegraph to the following effect: “Your wife: is dead. Funeral Sunday. Take I the pleasure train.” .—.—— — i Miscellaneous Items, Helena, Montana, claims 2.500 i inhabitants, and an annual business , of 81.000,000. The wife of a mail clerk in the ■ Louisville Courier Journal office i has fallen heir to 8300,000. i In its forty-seven years of exist- i cnee the Yale Theological School I has sent out 320 clergymen. Prussian distilleries last year; consumed 6.750,000 bushels of! grain and nearly 40,000,000 bush- ■ els of potatoes. The city of New York consumes annually fully 1.500,000 sheep ; | Boston about 500,000 ; and other cities in proportion. The mail carriers at Cleveland ' delivered, during the month ofj September, 175.050 mail letters, ; 11,804 local ones, and G3.IVG newspapers. Vermont is the only State that | was unrepresented at the session i of the United States Grand Lodge ! of Odd Fellows at San Francisco. I Ex President Pierce's estate i.s j estimated at 81,000,0(10. the bulk | of which will probably go to a • nephew, who is being educated at\ Princeton CollegeAn English servant Ih>v pretend- I ed to have murdered his master i for the sake of making a sensation, ; and would have been hanged had I not science prowl him to be a liar. During the Mechanics' Exhibition at Boston more than 3G.000 individuals were weighed, whose! aggregate weight was 4,778.7001 pounds. The average weight of . the 36,000 was 133 pounds. A New York Judge, in charging 1 a jnrv with reference to revenue frauds, recently, said, “I do not al- 1 hide entirely to the citizens, but I i also allude to the officials.’ An old lady on a |rain not far from Lafayette, hearing the brake- ' I man sing out. “Eubank's Cut." I sailed to the door and asked, “Is i j he hurt very much ?" In 16G7 Italian statistics show out ot 170,456 marriages there, were 97,159. considerably more than one-half the whole nmnl>er. in , which neithet-the bride nor bride-; grooiw could either read or write!
