BAYARD'S DOWNFALL. New York Advertiser. It is hardly worth while fo- the House to pass a resolution censuring Ambassador Bayard for his indiscreet utterances in England. Mr. Bayard’s folly has already been sternly condemned by congress and the American people, and he is not a personality of sufficient importance at the present moment to deserve the distinction of a formal vote of censure. Few figures in American politics have dwindled with such rapidity as the former senator of Delaware. A few years ago he was regarded as one ot the foremost leaders of the democratic party, and was frequently pointed out as a possible presidential candidate. When he was commie sioned by Mr. Cleveland as minister to England democratic newspapers declared in ecstatic chorus that he was of all men living the best fitted for the post iionored by James Russell Lowell. Mr. Bayard has succeeded within a very brief space of time in proving that lie is not a sound and dignified statesman, but a garrulous, hotheaded free trade shouter, whose most prominent trait is unbounded adulation for Grover Cleveland. He has completely wrecked hie own reputation as a diplomat, and hie public career is approaching a close, to be marked by popular indifference on this side of the ocean.

In the current issue of Bradstreet'.* we find the following: Comptroller Eckels has this week made public the result of his inquiry into the condition of the national banks of December 13 last. The 3,706 banks covered by the report had $2,020,960,000 in loans and $1,720,550,000 in individual deposits. Of the specie holdings, which amounted to $206,712,410, over $ 108,000,000 was in gold. This represents a gain of a little over $5,300,000 as t-ompared with Sep tember 28. The largest amount of gold held by the banks in any state was in New York state, whose banks held $57,708,485, or more than a third of the whole. Illinois came next with $20,643,508, Pennsylvania third with $17,775,431, and Massachusetts fourth with $12,502,689. Utah begins her career as a state with 19,810 farms, of which 17,860 are unincumbered. The new commonwealth owns itself, and presents a poor field for the calamity orator. ii. A. K. Attention.

WAMPLER'S WOE. John C. Wanplcr In.titatM Another i.aw Suit Against tha IMirham Estate. Crawf'irdsTlII* Argua New*. John C. Wampler has entered another one of his law suits against the Durham estate. This one is entitled “John C. Wampler vs. the Equitable Life Assurance Society and George S. Durham, administrator of the estate of Wra. H. Durham.” The complaint is not exactly a lucidity, but as nearly as can be figured out from its allega tions Wm. H. Durham died having three insurance policies in the Equitable Life Assurance Society of New York. One of these was payable to Mrs. Sarah Durham and the other two to Wm. H. Durham’s heirs. One of theso two policies was for $5,000 and the other was for a sum unknown to the defendant. Wampler alleges that as bus band of Lily Durham Wampler, decedent’s daughter who died before decedent, he is entitled to her share of this insurance money. He alleges that George S. Durham, Sarah Durham and Georee T. Durham made death proofs without consulting him, obtained the insurance money and now hold it in disregard of plaintiff’s right to share in the proceeds.” Wampler thinks that he is entitled to recover $12,500 from the defendants and sued for that amount.

Would Not Be Popular Here, In speaking of military matters the Terre Haute J/ail says: “There are at present more than one hundred officers of the active list of the army serving us instruc tors of military science and tactics at various educational institutions of the country. There is more or less objection expressed among commanding officers, and also by the secretary of war, against taking officers from their legitimate work with their regiments, although it seems necessary in such cases as special duty in Washington and as military attaches abroad; but in the matter of details as instructors at colleges there is a strong sentiment in favor of employing officers on the retired list, many of whom are eminently capable for such ser vice. The same opinou prevails with regard to retired officers of the navy.” The proposed change would not prove popular here. DePauw wants young and energetic men such as Lieut. Lewis and his several predecessors. The “retired” men as a rule have let their energy retire with them. DePauw’s military department has too high a standing to take a backward step.

CrawfordsYille Argus News. “Thert would be a good girl for you” said a couple of young wags thi* morning to Uncle Abe Eastet as he was sizing up a handsome little brunette who went tripping gaily by. “She’s tall and straight, well built and of good disposition. True she has artificial teeth but you wouldn’t mind a little thing like that.” Uncle Afie is looking for a nice plump, little widow and asked if she was a widow. “Yes,” said the boys, “she’s a widow, her husband lost his life in one ot those slot machines. She’d be a great' catch for you.” The old gentleman has taken the matter under advisement.

Eloped and Were Married. special to the Indianapolis Journal. New Albany, Ind, Jan. 25.— The marriage of Charles Willis, •on of Rev. T. H. Willis, formerly of this city, and now presiding elder of the Bloomington district, and Miss Oma Pedigo, of Bloomington, winch took place last Sunday, became public today.

Brooks, Jr., son of the county l uperinteudent of schools, hsis sworn out warrants for the arrest of the throe directors of the Petersburg school, in Loami township, this county, for refusing to allow the American Hag to be hoisted upon that sohoolhouse, as directed by law.
