Read the speech of Senator Wallace on the first page of Jhe Sentinel. Dr. Jnmcs H. Stewart, an old and prominent citizen of Garroli county, died easter morning. Dr. S. survived three wives and eleven children and died childless. The radicals are in a “terr ble stew” over the speeches of eur own Voorhees; Wallace, of Pennsylvania, and Judge Davis, of Illinois. Radicalism would maintain its supremacy with the bayonet and by fraud. It dies hard, but dio it must. If that fellow in Illinois accepts the appointment to Turks Island he will prove himself a bigger fool than our Horace was willing to be. Whereas, if he indignantly declines, he may le made chairman of his congressional and county committees, a member of the State committee, drawn on a U. S. jury, and'flnaily bring up in a post of flc°. Dead sure to, particularly if he is subject to the ague. More Evidence. -Frye, one of the dirtiest radicals in Congress, rose in his place the other day and proceeded to read from a paper he had just received by mail. Tne paper be had rec.eved was the Okalona States, and the fact that radicals in and out of Congress are alone its patrons, is sufficient to show thutit is published in the interest of the radical party,— Frye wasn’t as sharp as he wished to appear or he wouldn’t have let the cut out of the bag. The failure of Horace E. James, of the Rensselaer Union, to accept the position of consul to Turk’s Island, lias created a great consternation among the friends of the administration at Washington. Several cabinet councils have been held to discuss the issue, and it was finally agreed to select another man for the place. Hayes will probably make the declination of James the subject of a spec.al message to Congress.—Delphi Times. That “special message” will not be necessary, as the consul’s wrath has been appeased with a two year i’lease of the post office. At the expiration of that time a Democrat will step in and he will vacate.
AN ADDRESS TO THE PEOPLE OF INDIANA.
Now that the Fifty-first session of the General Assembly has closed its labors we desire to, call attertion to some of the most important bills that have been passed. Of these the most important are those which reduce all the expenses of the state and county officers. The bills passed and approved by the governor number in all—. Many of these are of general interest, but we can only call attention to a few of them. Among the important measures passed are,.the following: 1. The legisla ive apportionment bill. 2. The apportionment for congressional purposes. 3. The Dili reducing the rate of interest on judgments from 10 to 6 per cent., and on special contracts from lb to 8 per cent. 4. The codification of the school laws (which had become very much complicated), which reduces the rate of levies of taxes for special school purposes from 50 cents to 35 cents, and for general purposes from 25 cents to 20 cents en each SIOO valuationand on each poll from one dollar to 50cents. In addition to this the bill prohibits the change of text books in schools ofteuer than once in 10 years. Thcsu changes make a great saving to the people, ami will not Impair the efficiency of the schools. 5. The exemption of property to heads of families from levy and sale on execution to an amount of S6OO. 6. The exemption of wages of laboring men from attachment and garnishment in certain eases. 7. Requiring foreign corporations doing business in this State to bring suit in State courts in the county where the defendant resides, thereby preventing such corporations from suing Federal courts and dragging defendants from home at great expense in time and money. 8. An act for the protection of mines and miners, which, we hope, will be the means of preventing those terrible explosions and consequent loss of life which occasionally startle the country. 9. Two acts abolishing the superior court in Wayne county, and the fourth superior court in Marion county, thereby saving at least $25,000 per annum to the people of those conn ties and the people of the State, as part of the sal-l ies of the s iperior judges are paid from the State treasury. 10. An act providing that persons in jail, not indicted may, at any tertn at which no grand jury is called, be tried upon affidavit and presentment by the prosecuting attorneys. This bill will save counties the expense of boarciug prisoners from term to term, awaiting the action of the grand jury. 11. An act reorganizing the benevolent institutions, which will bring about reforms that wili result beneficially to the people. Up to the pus-, sage of this act no law had been” enacted requiring an inventory to be furnished ts the property belonging to the Insane, Deaf and Dumb, nor Blind Asylum, and no officer connected with said institutions, nor any State officer knew the value of such property. This bill requires an inventory to be furnished to the governor esch year by the officer in charge of said institutions. This act, and the one regarding the prisons and the reformatory institutions, require the profits arising therefrom to be covered into.the State treasury, and become a part ci' the general fond. These pro-
fits will amount to over SIOO,OOO per year. 12. An act to regulate fees and salaries of public officers. This bill has been desired by the - people, more, perhaps, than almost any other bill pending before the Assembly. Be ginning at the highest office in the gift of the people, and running down to the lowest, the fees and salaries have been reduced. One important feature of the bill is that it reduces tees and salaries mainly where the money comes out of the county and State treasury, thus making a saving directly to the people. After making a careful estimate we find there will be a saving, as compared with the expenses of the same officers under the fee and salary bill of 1875, at a low mate, the following: te the state treasury. Governor's office $ 2.500 Attorney General's office 9,200 Auditor* office. ..... 11,000 Secretary'* office 2,100 Treasurer’s office 500 Superintendent Public Instruction 400 Total >19,000 SAVING TO COUNTY TREASURY. County Auditors and Treasurers > 46.000 County Commissioners 9,000 Jurors 60.000 Boarding prisoners '. 23,184 Assessors. 25,000 Township trustees. 27,600 County superintendents 27.500 „ Total >2lB 584 Saving to litigants and I he people tn r<ductionof lees of clerks and sheriffs, 20 percent >200,000 Allow us to recapitulate: Saving to Stffie treasury > 19,000 Saving to county treasury ...... 218,584 Saving to Sate treasury in way of ; rolits of benevolent and other institutions... 100,000 Saving to litigant*, etc 100,000 Total saving $437,584 White the foregoing aie the most important and money saving bills, yet there are many others of interest to the people which we have not time nOr space to mention. We respectfully submit the above statement of facts to the public in full confidence that when these measures shall have been tested they will fully meet the expectations of the people, and will beTound to supply a long felt want in legislation.

“over the Hills ta tie Poor Hanse!” The following lines were suggested by a company going to the Poor House for a seigh-ride and dancing party during the past winter. •‘Over the hills to t he poor house I” Hew fn,tight with pain these words; How like the moan of an autumn wind When lulling leaves are heard, And the dreary drip of a chilling rain Seems sweeping o'er Howers dead. And heavy clouds, in gloomy shroud* Their pall around have spread. “Over the hills to the poor ho*ee?” How it chills the heart of age; As thoughts of happiness, and love, Are lead from memory’s page; To find that life-long kindred tie* Apart are rudely torn, Anu childhood's second helplessness In them will not be borne. Because the form is bent, and bowed; Because no beauty’s left; Because expenses are 100 great, Cecause, of strength bereft The aged one can toil no more; Or else, is all too mean In looks, or dress, or rhetoric To be by “Ouk But’’ seen? To find that those for whom thoy’ve toiled In yeurs of strength, and youth, Should leave them to a Pauper’s fate ; Sweet recompense, in truth! Oh. God of justice, cau it be Thou’lt prosper such as these? Whose plans, and aims, do naught contain, Bui heartless self to please. Send curses on that daughter’s life, That son so void of shame; Whose God is Mammon, and whose home A parent cuunot claim. “Over the hill to the poor house 1” You sent that tottering wreck Whose very ui'B, and love, and toil Were given at your beck. “Over the hill to the Poor House” A MERRY COMPANY went With jingling bells, and laughter’s swells, The evening air was rent. Bright eyes and happy faces, Told of expected glee; And crisp and white, in the starry night, Lay t. e snow on wood and lea. In huge s.eighs slowly crowded, With warm robes snugly wrapped; On runner* sleek, to measure quieic Th* pleasure seekers swept. And, soou the sound of violin Kang through the poor-house halls; And merry feet, to the music sweet. Chased gloom from out those walls. “Over the hill to the Poor-Hettse I” When tears have conte and gone, Will any ol these, feel the chilling breeze, Across their heart-strings blown? As houseless, homeless, friendless, A hated pauper they come; To dream of strife, and a broken life, 'Til God shall call them homo. Celia Wilkinson.

The I D.& C. R. R—Its Improved Prospects.
From the Delphi Times. The Times lias heretofore given a brief resume of the relations existing between the narrow gauge railroad and the taxpayers of Deer Creek township. It is well known that a subsidy of $21,000 was years ago voted by the people of this township to secure the construction of a railroad from Indianapolis to Chicago. A large portion of this tax has been paid, aud is now in the treasury, Owing to the peculiar construction of the law, this money could not be made available until the road was finished through the township. The contractors desired that it should be paid when the road was completed to Delphi. In this desire they were seconded by a large proportion of the taxpayers of the township, who intelligently .reasoned that the three or four miles south from here to an adjoining township line, which under a strict construction of the law would have to be laid, before the money could be pai l, would be entirely useless—of no possible benefit to the people of Deer Creek township. As a result, petitions praying the county commissioners to direct the payment of this tax as soon as the road was completed to Delphi were put into circulation and received the signatures of nine-tenths of the taxpayers. These were presented to the commissioners at their March term, but owing to the absence of one of the board no action was taken, hast week, at a special session, the matter was again considered. Messrs, boss, of Logansport, Pollard and Yeoman argued the question for the people, and after an extended consideration of a day and a half, the commissioners directed, by a unanimous vote, that the money should be paid to the builders of tbe road when the cars were run into the city of Delphi It would be useless to attempt a description of the joy felt by our citizens over this decision., For twelve long, weary years the people of Delphi have prayed and worked, hoped and prayed for this road, aud this order places the line within our grasp. We have the assurance of Colonel Veoman that track laying this side of Monticello will begin just as soon as some minor details are arranged. He reiterated the assertion before made that within fifteen days from the time tbe first spike is driven this side of the Tippecanoe river the cars will be running into Pittsburg. The bridge will be finished about the Ist of June, and by the 15th of the same month the cars will be running into Delphi. The citizens of Delphi can make their arrangements for th? jubilee with their eyes upon that date. Wo will all rejoice, and sing with unction of genuine fervor and thankfulness: “This is the way we long have sought. And mourned because we found it not.”

What Women can Do.
Our attention has been called to a new article for the use of ladies, the invention of which has conferred an everlasting blessing upon every lady. We refer to the Queen City Skirt Suspenders, for supporting ladies skirts, the most desirable and beneficial article ever invented for the relief of women, many of whom have suffered years of miserable health caused solely by carrying the weight of a number of heavy skirts, completely down. Something to support ladies’clothing is absolutely necessary. These suspenders are recommended by our leading physi cians to all ladies and young girls. Every lady should have them. Thousands will testify to their excellence and the advantanes to be derived from wearing them. They are sold only through lady agents. Many ladies in other localities are leaking from a hundred to two hundred dollars per month, selling these and other new articles made by the same company, and it. can be done here. We have been asked by the manufacturers for the name of a reliable lady to act as their agent for this county. We advise such to write at once to the Quern City Suspender Company, Elm and Longworth Street .Cincinnati, Ohio.

We are just in receipt of the Chicago Ledger, the leading family paper of the West, which is now entcrieg upon its seventh volume.

This excellent journal is supplied to subsdribers, postage paid, for the extremely low price of one dollar and fifty cents per year. In order to mere iapidly increase its present large list of readers, the publishers of this paper, the publishers of this paper have just made a new contract for the manufacture of several thousand fine nickel plated English steel barrel-and-cylinder se' enshot revolvers 22 caliber—which they propose to distribute among their subscribers at cost, and therefore offer one of these elegant weapons of defense and the Ledger one year for three dollars, The revolver will be sent by mail, postage paid, on receipt of the price. They have already distributed $3,000 revolvers and are mailing hundreds daily. Now is your time to get a first class revolver and the best paper in the country .or less than half the actual worth of either. The sample copies of the Ledger will be sent to any address for ten cents. Address the Ledger, Chicago, 111. The attention of the public is invited to the Adamantine Pavement, as an article deserving special consider ation. This pavement is a Portland Cement Beton, which, though soft and plastic when laid, solidifies into a stone of great hardness, suroassing many of the best natural stons, in strength, density and durability. It is moulded cn the walks in blocks of any form, size and thickness, which do not combine and Interlock, and may, if desiied, be taken up and relaid like ordinary flagstone. From its plastic nature it may be laid on curved and irregular walks, with the same facility as on straight ones, and without that waste of .material and extra expense that pertains to the fitting of stone. It may be made al most as white as marble, or tinted to imitate blue, brown and other sand stone. It is rich, elegant, durable and cheap. The most desirable pavement yet introduced for either private grounds or publij sidewalks. It has a wide and varied application, and numerous testimonials can be furnished from those who have practically tested its merits. Walks that have been in use five years are as level, sound and perfect to-day as when just finished, and to all appearance will last a century. Inquiries and orders respectfully solicited.
