The Eagle. OFFICIAL PAPER OK THE Cbt’JtTY. DECATUR, FRIO4I\ NOV. 19,1869. THE SEWS. Amos Kendall, Postmaster General under Jackson, died last Friday morning. Minister Sickles cannot be confirmed by the Senate, consequently he is to be re called. Saturday* night a gambling sa- I loon was overhauled at Indianapolis and forty-one persons arreste 1. Attorncy-Generrl Hoar will re- j sign abont the Ist of January. It • is probable he will be appointed to ■ fill the vacancy on the supreme ■ bench. I The reunion of the society of i the Army of the Tennessee is be- ! ing held this week at Louisville. A large number of officers are ! present. New York dispatcb.es say that the President has determined to | bring our currency to a specie standard, if lie has to sell all the ! gold in the Treasury. Try it. The French paper Ze Tempt i says that Spain is a monarchy be- : cause the republicans are insnffi- j cient; a republic because no party i is strong enough to appoint a king. ; The navy-yard. New York, has 1 2,500 men at work day and night, ! This, together with the formidable display in West India waters, has ; created a sensation inconsular cir I des. who telegraph their superiors ' every movement. The Allcn-McCoole fisticuff! which was to come off last week. ' is off. McCoole could not get the ' money fixed so that he could get j it whether he got away with his ' man or not, consequently refused to fight i The Alabama Legislature ron- ■ rental Monday. The Governor’s j message is very conservative. He • opposes martial law. claiming. 1 there has been no necessity for its ' : enforcement. He sets forth the i peacefulness of the people and the advantages of emigration. Two passenger trains, going at : 1 the rate of twenty miles an hour, I. collided last Sunday, on the West- ( ern Pacific railroad, completely i I wrecking the trains and killing i 1 and wounding from twenty to fifty , of the passengers. j .7 I The President in his message i 1 will recommend to Congress theP consolidation of the national debt t into a four per cent, loan, and re I t commend that Congress do not , 1 change the present rates of taxi- ’ . lion.

The ‘No v York Tribune has reeve r foiin I e nploymeiit which pleased it better than to charge | frauds in elections in certain wards i in New \ ork e.tv. and in speaking ' of the voters of those wards as the most ignorant and vicious of men. i In this work it has seemed to take' as much delight as when expatia I ting on the horrors of the “peen- J liar institution,” or the diabolism of slaveholders, or the wickedness of the idea that a man ‘ has a right, to larrup his own nigger." or the _ contempt! I»i lily of “the little crea ture* whom God, for some insernÜb’e purpose, permits to edit the majority of Republican uewspa j per#.” Immediately after the close of the late election in New York, the Tribune said that the “repeaters’ ’’ j vote in that div would reach twenty thousand. «:id that the frauds were greatest in the Sixth, Seventh, and Twenty first wards. Now it *o happens that the election returns show that Mr. Greeley saw far ahead of his ticket in those very wards. He led Sigel in them jnurc than a thousand votes, and J£. Delafield Smith nearly seventeen hundred votes. From this it seems that 11. G.

One of Mr. Grant's officials pledged to “retrenchment antirei form,” has recently “lit out.”' He I had a fat office in the Custom House, New York, but it would not keep a man with as much loyal blood as coursed iii his veins. Uncle Sam is a loser by more than a million of dollars, possibly two or three; the fact is the people will never know the exact amount. Several parties are involved, but it was only necessary for one to run away, as the others can make it all right by “peaching" on the “skedadler.” Mr. Grant is surrounded by some very eccentric brother-in-laws and office holders, but as they are “loyal" men they could net be expected to do different. — shalt not steal," cannot be found in the Radical bible. g'tT The New York JForW says | that a Belgian paper proposes to issue a supplemental sheet, partially printed in Latin, exclusively for the use of men, and for the purpose of excluding curious females from reading the same. The same paper naively remarks that were ! newspapers in this country to folI low up the idea, our progressive ; young women would soon find I ways and means to make themi selves masters of the situation. I “Let us have peace" has : proved a failure. The President ' has fitted out a considerable fleet, accompanied by a land force 2,000 strong, which set sail Tuesday under secret orders. St. Domingo is one point named by rumor, Cuba another. We shall probably hear the correct destination in a few days. JEST Fisk, who runs the Erie railroad, is reported financially “played out." The Wall street gold fight proved too much for him. As a consequence, the Erie road, it is said, will lose tbs broadgauge line to Chicago. Grant vs. Mammon. Don Piatt thus discourses upon Grant’s worship of Mammon, in a recent letter from Washington : I am under the impression that | when the American people again j undertake the selection of a Chief Magistrate, they will look not only into his principles, but his brothers in law. The question whether a large and healthy family is to be elected, or one man, will be fiercely agitated. The platform will be made too narrow for collateral connections, and the B's-in-L. will be warned off. It may be said that Grant's poor relations were on hand previous i to the nomination, and the free! and independent voters had before their eyes the consequences of sue- j cess. But this can not be said of l the latest ami most fearful inflic tion. The (’orbin affair was a sub- i sequent speculation, for which the citizens of the Republic are m no wise responsible. There is a class taught at the little military academy upon the Hudson, through which cadets graduate, that ought to be broke ; up at an early day. And that is the one which teaches the bcuitv of riches and the glory of rich men. All West Pointers, nearly bump their military skulls upon the floor in the presence of rich men. This was particularly apparent during the late war. Nearly every West Point General made ids stjff up of princes ami poodles. Me Clellan made his up of that sort. “My God. General," cried Bnm»;dc, at the first Bull Ruh. when ■ ordered to send the Second Rhode Island into the fight, “that regiment represents the best families in mv State—are men there worth •i hundred thousand dollar? each.’’ j To have a hundred thousand ptinc- • hired by a bulUt, or dislocated by j a she'd, filled the old military I pumpkin with horror. This rttin!ed poor Rosccrans. Alter the battle of Stone River he would have relieved-’McCook, but the Phillips and Thurstons came down ami threw abont Count Fosco the ■ purple and fine linen of grtat re spcctability, ami old Rosey’s heart failed him. There are a few exI ccptio'.ib to this, of course. Old ; i’ap Thomas stands out like a tow er, but the exceptions form the | rule. General -Grant is clearly |none. He has no friends that are i not wealthy friends —no advisers that are not wealthy advisers,«nd i so. to our 'ruin, he turns from the “gold o'er dusted to the dust o'er goldfed." and bis fair fame is tarI' nished. i' ——— > •' An office-holding carpetbagger 1 in Columbia, South Carolina, was I so ungrateful as..to call a nice ? young mulatto awed a nigger.— • Single combat followed in the back yard, and the carpet bagger’s head came out the worst punched.

> State News. e > Cotton is coming into Evans ville, and passing east, by rail, in large quantities. I " A four-foot vein of pure bituminous coal has just been discovered ■ i at Staunton, .Clay county. ' Nearly 3,000,000 of brick have ' been made in Jeffersonville during the season which has just closed. An interesting revival of relig , ion is in progress at Otwell, Dubois county, in the Methodist church. Rev. John Parson, a Rushville preacher, was recently killed while ■ assisting his brother in-law to raise ' a house. ~ I Lizzie Reed, 5 years of age, walked backward into a tub of hot water in Ligonier, and lived 32 hours after being taken out The Terre Haute Express says one of its citizens has receivedin formation that he has fallen heir to property in France worth $500,000. It is estimated by competent authorities .that the loss to the unpicked apple crop in Laporte coiintv by the late freeze is fully §SO, 000. I Near Atwood, recently, a boy | named Joseph Arno’d struck his j mother with his fist with such force that she fell over a large chair, breaking her thigh and injuring her side so badly as to cause her death. A singular fight took place in ! Vernon. A six-foot lubber named Koble attacked John Riley, a 17 i year old boy. when a Newfound- - land dog mixed in and bit Koble lon the arm. Riley then drew a l pocket knife and slashed bis antagonist in divers places. The Citizens’ Exchange Bank, of Elkhart, a private bank, closed its doors last Thursday, and its proprietor, M. E. Cole, decamped to parts unknown. The trustee of the township had 81.500 on deposit. The other deficiencies are not known. Heavy losses in Colorado mining operations, it is thought, occasioned the defalcation. Thomas Downs, baggage master at the depot in Greencastle, committed a rape on the wife of one of the rolling mill men, about 4 o'clock Thursday morning, while her husband was absent at the mill. He knocked at the door and [ said he had found a dead man on the railroad track, and wanted as- ' ' sistnnee to carry him to the depot. ' ! She opened the door to answer j him. w hen he threw a piece of car ' pct over her head, and, being a very strong man, easily accomplished his purpose. The Sheriff' and her husband are now in pursuit. •4 Belknap vs. Sherman. There are rumors that-General ' Belknap, our new Secretary of; ' War, and General Sherman do not 1 ' get along pleasantly together. As ; ! general, Sherman is inclined to ! make the Secretary of War a non- j ' entity. He had trouble with Raw - ; ; tins, on this account, and of such j 'a serious nature that it made Grant | •sick." The President felt so bad-’ | ly because of the difficulty between i i Sherman and Rawlins that he was “sick" for two days. So ran the : Washington dispatches, and in this ' case they were no doubt true. So far as any conflict of juris- ( diction between General Sherman and the Secretary of War is concerned, it is to be hoped that it will be decided in favor of the latter. The powers of General ! the Army wore enlarged that Grant l might restrict those of President j Johnson. Congress gratified its hatred of. the President, and at the same time { curbed his authority. It acted i meanly, and set up a.dangerous! precedent, and as there no longer ! exists any reason—there never was anv but a partisan one—why the ' 1 General should be invested with i his present amount of authority, it ought to be cut down. When the military fired upon the riotous striking miners of Anbin, France, a woman, who had j , her child in her arm’, turned to ! fly, pressing the baby to her I ' • breast • the -child was struck by ; several balls in the head, and the furious mother turning back and t meeting an officer, hurled her child in his face exclaiming, “Take it. . ruffian! You want our blood? I Take it, then—drink it!’’ . j - — _- ,- J Hartford Connecticut, the home ? of Mrs. Stowe, has too much and s too many negro ?
