FRIDAY, JULY G, 1877.

The instructions to G<‘n. Or-I from Washington are that he shall pursue Mexican brigands across the Bio : •Grande and punish them there. The orders of the Mexican government are ;hat in such an event Orl’? invasion must bo repelled by force. The Creowoll and Fulton wings of' 11 1 0 Republican party in Maryland art* enjoying a squabble over the Collectorship at Baltimore. In Grunt's time < 'reswell was on top, hut since the eliange in administration Fulton comes to the surface, and Cretwell goes un- \ der.

Morton’s Hour Has Come.

The Louisville Courier-Journal very I ruly remarks that “It. is an open t.;e----i-ii't, if a secret at all, that the Hon. W. Voorhces will canvass Indiana m-xt yoar for United States Senator against Hon. O. P. Morton. Mr. Yoorihecs is accepted by aeciamation as ! lie Democratic nominee and leader. There is a feeling all-over Indiana Mint Sitting -Bull’s time has come, and •he poetry of the gaze eat not be completed until his scalp Is held up to I he ojze of the multitude,on the out- ! retched art'll s of til* Tall Sycamore, if Mr. Yoorliees can induce Mr. Morf a, or seduce him, or taunt him, or kick him into a joint canvass, lie will h> it. In tnat event there wifi he a mshing together of elements sure o lough. Wo predict, however, that will not come to pass. Sitting Bull ■foes not dare to face lln- man who, in oarage, consistency, genius, and ev. i-ry manly virtue, is tenfold his supei ior. Haying, us bethought, securely .gerrymandered the State, he will rely upon organization, money and chicane to hold it. Nobody doubts his capacity in those departments of political science, and for this reason the light to oust him will be "desperate. II would be hopeless if tile Indiana Democrats did not have in Mr. Yoorives a chieftain of resplendent powers.

The;contest thus laid out a year in advance will lie the event of the. [>oTticul period. It. will n.I tract as much attention as the famous struggle be--1 ween Lincoln and. Douglas in 1858_ *'a its results great things will depend, because, if Air. YoorhcoS unc*ats Morton, virtually redeeming die State, Indiana will appear at the boat in ISBO as the loading Democratic Stftte in tho Union. Tho Indiana Democrats deserve this, for they are the gamest, the truest, the noblest of YllOws in tile world. They don't know what it is to let down or back down defeat after defeat lias only, nerved Diem for renewed action. Their conduct last year was in every way heroi *• -It was not in tho hooks for them ro get the man of their choice, the man who had shared all their disast--t'3 und never flinched, the man whom diey felt deserved to carry the banner n the fight. Naturally the result at St. Louis was bitterly disappointing ;.-.ud cruelly depressing. Naturally they came away discouraged. But, like brave men, they took their swear out and fell into lino cheerfully and heartily, mindful that the world was not yet come to a|n end, and hopeful i f the future. They were richly rewarded for their valorous self sacri lice. They put thoir old enemy to iiight, took the State out of iiis grasp; a *nt him flying away to California. A still groater battle is before them. They are to put the last finishing ioucheson the already shattered im —ge of Sitting Bull. Led by the Tall Sycamore of the Wabash, an orator, a statesman and a man, they are to start the bail which is to sweep radicalism out of existence. Indiana will blaze as it never did before. Not even the campaign of our matchless Blue Jeans will equal tho enthusiasm which will be inspired when the lion with the go Id eh locks begins to roar and shake his mane in oid Sitting Lull s face. There’ll be music on the hills and in the valleys. It was DnnL l of old who made tin* wild boasts **.ouch at iiis feet. But ibis, our 1 r -omiijDaniel, will nonstop until he lias Ids foot upon the neck of hG adversary The Hendricks ovation .it. Indian npolis was tho first, gun of tho canvass. The Republican.* may as well

learn first as last what is in store for them. Mr. Morton’s hour is run. He has had a great career of power, and lias used it unsparingly. But his sud is set. Hz will have to get out of that snug pi ice and give it to fits better, to Daniel W. Yoorhee«| surname d the 'J’ail Sycamore of the Wabash. Thus eiid’eth the first lesson.” St. Jolius, X. ii., sustains u loss by the recent great fire, it is estimated, of $'12,000,000. The Lafayette Journal shows that great respect was paid the memory of ( X-.I udge Petit, at his funeral, by his associates of the bar and bench, and other people iir*the highest walks of life. .We have in our possession a twopointed Indian arrow bead, one of tho finest we bate ever seen, given us by Mr. John O’Donohue, of this county. It’s a handsome pices of workmanship for the red men.— Valparaiso Vidette. Robert Dale Owen, of this State, the eminent author, statesman and spiritualist, died in Now York on S iturduy. Juno rt-1 tii, in the 7Clh year of his age, He was a gentleman of large benevolence, was highly esteemed by all who knew him. The X. Y. evening /'our, radical, observes that “Senator Spencer’!rascal and carpet-bagger] who, happily I'oj Alabama, is now in tho Black Hills, is afraid that he may lose his scalp,” and unkindly adds, “Weil, worse than that, may happen. Of course,” replies tho florid pithily, “theytiuight. But hotter things also might hnppeiY Ho might lose iiis head. It. b always wise to hope for ting best.” Yes, decidedly,

Thu suit begun by Zucli Ghatbller against Jacob Thompson, Buc-ban air’s ! secretary of the interior, for embezzle- | meat of Indian trust funds, has been withdrawn by the government. Ohundh r and everybody rise knew that there was no foundation for the charge against Thompson at the beginning of the stupid business. There was no other reason for the suit Tian a desire to “fire the northern heart,” and help along the bloodyshirt campaign. Gov Hartfunft domes in just now fora huge.amount of editorial swablung from what McClure calls the “average organs,” because he has not pardoned any of the (detected ‘‘Mollies” who have gone or are ticketed fortiie “road to glory”—as it. seems to be nbvv .settled (if we are to accept ns orthodox the effusions of a peculiar ■'class of “gospelers’’ and the "last, words” of ’iiurdi-rprs before being adorned with hemp neckties,) that ; through homicide to a scaffold is the safest route to heaven. And after the I swabbing conics some -such stunning .interrogatory as this: “What now i “becomes of the dirly charge made “against the State administration by ' “F. B. Gowen of the Heading linil- ! “road, that ‘high officials’ were in “league with them?” “Y\ hit becomes of the dirty charge? ; Why it “sticks,” like the fabled poisonous shirt of Nesses, riveted fast. | The charge has novel* been met, ex- | cept by a puling, evasive denial, tantamount to a confession.

i Chief Justice Waite, who recently held a-session of court in South Caro ; hna to try Ellentown rioters, is quot- ■ ed as complaining oT having ostra- ; cised there; and assaying the failure jto agree by tho jury in the case was 1 inexcusable, as “the evidence was • conclusive as to the guilt of some of | them,” Ac. And this is quoted by ! some of our radical exchanges after it is inexcusable far them not to have | known that Judge! Waite had formally denied the complaint of social osI traeism; aud, it is needless to say, | has expressed no such opinion as is' ! attributed to him of the action of the | jury. | “Burke,” observes the World, “renuuked that he did not know how to . traine an indictment against a nation, but we have advanced upon Burke. We have intellects able to frame an indictment against a city for not asking a man to dinner, and to frame it upon tattle. It requires an acute car, not to say a long one, to hear the old rebel yell in the muttered accents iu which the population of Charleston did not invite Judge Waite to their houses. This is one of the things which happen from time to time to tluill us with pride and joy in the press of America. lu-civilized societies it is considered that men extend their private hospitalities to whomever they like, and that they are en--1 titled to do so without any question. I but if the people of Charleston (lid ! not invite him without inviting Judge bond we have no doubt that they took a perfectly proper course. Aral if Judge Waite is fond of society other than that, of Judge Bond, lie will probably find it conducive to-hiscom-fort, when he next goes to Charleston, to go alone.” Or rath r, weshould say, with some decent man, and not ■ with such an incarnation of meanness ! and so foul a blot upon civilization uu i Judge Bond. These black-headers, followers of blood-letting Zach Chaudler and that 1 ’Clerical Error,” Cowboy Sherman, be happy except in a condition of internecine strife.

Secretary Sherman has been ! charged with trying to persuade some New York banks to help his policy of currency contraction by surrendering their notes,receiving buck their bonds ! refiling them and getting new notes, and repeating the proceeding, "to enj able him lor each new issue of such I notes to cancel for each SIOO of them I SBO of the legal tender notes, in this i way lessening the voiumn of the greenback currency without replacing it I with other notes for circulation, but I to be repeatedly surrendered, leaving ■ less and less of legal tender still in ! circulation, so it may be safer to attempt redemption of the residue in gold. His plan was said to be discovpred and exposed, and both he and the banks involved denied the the charge; but it is now renewed, the Indiana Farmer says, and the Cincinnats Gazette, a friend of Sherman, aud his contraction policy, substantially concedes the point as follows: “We suppose the truth of the •fimtter to be that the resumption act stares the Secretary in the face, and he knows that without previous contraction it is impossible Jo carry it into effect. Yet the people have been made to believe that resumption involvs no contraction, and will even make an inflation by adding specie to the paper. And no one has been more influential in creating this belief than Mr. Sherman. And now no public man dare mention contraction, Hildas resumption is impossible without it, there is an attempt to get Uie greenbacks out of the way by secret methods. Yet in this sort of government nothing can be done that shall not le found out.”— Valparaiso Videtle.

MR. PICKERERING’S GREAT INVENTION.

How an Entire Newspaper Page MayRe Sent Across tiie Continent in a lew Minutes (From the New York Tribune.) Loring Bickering, one of the editors and proprietors of the evening Bulletin alid Hie morning Call of San Francisco, who has just received a patent for an arrangement by which in a few iniimf.es an entire newspaper page may bo telegraphed, was in the city a few days ago, and gave a Tribune reporter some additional facts in regard to iiis invention and the purpose for which it is designed. Mr. Pickering is about GO years of ago, and iiis invention is the result of several years of carft&st study. His attention was directed to the subject of telegraphy from liis experience of the great cost of telegraphic dispatches ior his papers. “Papers must have news,” said Mr. Pickering, “and we found that, it cost a good deal to get it, so that I was led to devise, if possible, some cheaper method.” And ho believes that lie has at last succeeded. “By this method he continued, “a page of the New York Tribune can be transmitted to Chicago in twenty or thirty minutes.” And what about the cost of sending so much matter?” “Scarcely anything at all,” replied Mr. Pickering—“only the use of the wire for a few minutes.” The inventor then explaine that tho western papers would no w be able to !. make arrangements with the publishers of eastern journals to have all the ! news sent them cheaply by the new process of transmission. The dii'fer- ! cnee in time would enable this to be I done the more readily. It would be possible, too, for the New York journals, if they so desired, to get out editions in the western cities by having printers there, since the copy is delivered directly from the instrument in such form that it can be handed to them. In course of time, Mr. Picker lig thought, it would be possible to have a fac-siinile of the London Times sent over, but at present the current on tho Atlantic cable was too feeble to transmit a message by means of his process. It will prove of yaluo, in certain contingencies, to the Associated Press also. An agent of tho Associated Press said yesterday that it was often desirable to delay sending a message until all tile facts in a ease could be ascertained. and then to send it at once. This he thought the new process would j enable one to do, and thus avoid | sending statements that are contra- ! dieted in later reports. It will be serviceable too, in telegraphing presidents’ messages, as they could bo sent, entire, and not in small sections as hitherto received. When questioned as to the value of his process in the transmission of private messages, Hr. Pickering ex- ! plained that probably it could not be used to advantage for this purpose. It was designed exclusively for the benefit of newspapers which receive long messages at once. He said, however, that as no telegraph operators are required at either end of the line by his method of transmission, and the message is delivered printed, there might be an advantage in useing it for private messages. From the description, as given recently, the machine is easily understood. It transmits, however, from a level; and not simply from a cylindrical plate, as that description seems to imply. The stereotype plate, of which it is desired to send a sac simile, is placed upon a cylinder capable of rapid revolution. By a very simple process, the depressions between the letters are filled with a non-conduct-ing material, and the cylinder and plate are then charged with electricity. Mr. William Shore, of Madison county, was fatally poisoned by eatiug wild greens. A Jeffersonville man tied his wife to a cherry tree and kept her there for six hours. He did it “to take the conceit outen her.” The magnificent new altar, bought in Paris at a cost of $7,000, for Notre Dame, in South Bend,.last year, arrived at its destination on Saturday noon, June 23, and was placed in position on Monday following. That Maryland trsunp who stalked into a lonely looking farm house and demanded dinner and a suit of clothes, lidn’t see the dog. The dog saw him, however. The doctor reported twenty different bites and considerable ! denudation of epidemics.

Baltimore has an interesting citizen in tiit> person of Joseph Glynn, who was tried recently for poisoning a neighbor’s hogs. He is over eighty years old, .md for more than sixty years he has been engaged in killing the cattle and destroying the property of any person against whom lie may have a grudge. It. is said that he has cost the State more than any other man in the county, and holds the championship in regard to the number of times he has been before the courts.
