iHiinurrafi* iffntfintT. FRIDAY, AUGUST 1. 1879.

U is now reported that sun-struck Blainer.il! not participate in the canvass in Ohio. 4#>Dr. Wm. S. Haymond, of InJianal>oiis, ox member of congress from this district, lias written a history of Indiana which is said to be the be.-t ever published. Hon. W. 8. Raymond has been elected to the chair of Professor of principles and praelic of surgery in the Central College of Physicians and Surgeon tit Indianapolis. Hoyt, the radical Governor of Pennsylvania, has pardoned Dennis F. Canning, of Schuylkill county,connected with the Mollie Macptire conspiracies. Canning was sentenced to 14 years. Agnes Jouks insists that site s not" in the Treasury Department. Sherman keeps her or. the pay roll of the seciet service fund. Next! Lize Pinkston, what fund do you draw from ?

The Wallace Committee is after Johnny Davenport and the marshals and supervisors under .him, and these tools of Fraud Hayes, Tipsy Zach, and Hie radical ring-conspirators tire beginning to realize that there is a God in Israel. — - Rem ‘tuber! a Democratic Congress appropriated the usual amount of money for the pay of mnshais, and, although the money is in the treasury it cannot be dcvot.e<| to that object consequently radicals are hilariously mad at Congress. The cream or the joke is their beautiful Fra id vetoed the appropriation, and is solely and alone to blame for existing state of affairs. Will our friends, who are in arrears, help us to the extent of the small demands against their.V lire aeoaiint against each one is small, but there area number of them, and in the ag gn gate amount to a considerable sum, which would enable us to move ulongsmoothlj and happily. Harvest has tome and gone—tire husbandmen have been bounteously dealt with, and now, let all enjoy the benefits.

It makes a d--eu! of difference with radicals whose, ox is gored. * When an over two-Ibirds radical Congress opposed President Johnson, they declared Congress was right, and impeached the executive for daring, in the ex< reise of his constitutional prerogative and horn--t convictions of duty, to introp - v ,. to Now, however, the table- yre turned, and t!my declare it j 8 t | K . constitutional light of evi u a Iraid to iirmlv oj * pose the—Couie aerate Jiiiga iers?— -Zat ozzer Chandler"—not Win.

A dispatch from Columbus, Ind., to the State S.iitiuel,* announces that on the morning of the 80th the most tragic event that lias ever happened in that county occurred at the residence, and between two sons, of Lulte Covert, about'two miles southeast of, Newton. Alex.and Henry Covert got into a quarrel, drew revolvers nud shot each other.. Henry died within 40 minutes. Alex, was shot in the neck, andliis death* hourly expected. Origin of the trouble—On January 13, 1879, Her men ia Co vqit filed a com plaint in court, praying for a divorce from her husband, Henry Covert, on the grounds of cruel ami inhuman treatment. On the 29th both parties compromised the matter and had agreiM to live together again. This matter was under discussion at the breakfast table when Alex made some remarks derogatory to the woman s character,.which so enraged Henry that he bogau the fearful tight which could scarcely haye resulted morese riously.” Some radicals don’t like th • designation of Hayes as a fraud. They claim lie is, legally, President of the United States. Is tie, indeed? The e eetoral commission established as a rule of court, In t!io interest of radicalism, that it had no power to go behind the returns of L midiana. With true partisan zeal, in the interest of tho same parly, by a vote of 8 to 7, it abrogated that rule-, declar'd it had die power to, ami did go behind the returns of Oregon. It reversed its order of things, an 1 by 8 to 7 resolved that “what was sauce for the goose Wits not sauce for the gander ” Hayes’ title is a fraud ; hoi.buy Ll e ot'ike un-

der such a tenure, in manhood he is a fraud. And as “the servant is not greater than the master,” Fraud Hayes, the servant, is entitled to just such respect as the master, the peo pie. may think proper to exercise toward him. The sooner men realize the loathing contempt in which such tenures to office are held by the peo pie. the better it will be for them aDd the country. —►-

The Etymology of “Stalwart”

Louisville Courier-Journal. The word “stalwart* is a misnomer, ;;s applied to the bloody shirt crowd. Its root signification is stal-woerthe, Anglo-Saxon for ‘‘worth stealing.” There is not a mother’s sou of the whole crowd who is worth stealing. The name “stalwart” is too good for the wretched imposters. The new law regarding chattle mortgages is a good one. It declares that any person huving mortgaged his personal property, who shall during the existence of tiie lien, sell or transfer to any person without informing him of the litn, or who shall take, dtive or carry away, in violation of his agreement contained in the mortgage, any of the property, shall be found guilty of a misdemeanor. Wish it had been in operation during tiie last five years.

The Radioals and the Negro.

Dubuque Tvlegraph (tireeubuck.) The Republican party enfranchised the negroes, hoping thereby to enhance its' prospects of indefinite political supremacy. Recent developements have demonstrated that with their growtliiu intelligence they have manifested a disposition to vote according to their convictions, regardless of that party’s dictum. Were the Republican party in power to-day, negro suffrage would, if at all possible, be done away with. Judge Baldwin, of Logansport, Col. K. G. Shyrock, of Rochester, Julius W. Touche and Win. T. Horine, of Crown Pom*, Col. R. H. Milroy, of Delphi, Banker Thompson and Judge Hammond,of Rensselaer, Wm. Johnston. E. 8. Merri field and Mark L. Demott. of this city, are all mentioned by our exchanges as possible Re publican candidates for congress in this district in 1880. Where is Horrnee E. James, of the Rensselaer Union? It is about time for him to start his “boom.” —Valparaiso Mesesnjer.

To Mr Hayes.

New York Star. Mr. Hayes, you are generally deemed an honest man. Those who differ from you have yet faith in your aims. They do not believe that you would carry elections by fraud or wholesale bribery. The letters we have published about secret printing of currency for election purposes, in the Bureau of Engraving and Printing, are from a person in a position to know whereof he speaks, and known to us as reliable. . If you would have the public still believe you pure, inspect Bureau iu person, and stop this villiany. Do not refer it to Mr. Sherman. Go there yourself. —

Strange as it may sc-cm, a Viennese professor has established a glass business, offering carpets, cuffs, collars, veils, etc., of glass. He not only spins, but also weaves glass before the e-yes of tiie neopie. The other-■vi-e brittle glass he changes into pliable threads arid uses them for making good, warm clothing. Tt sounds like a myth, but Mr. Prengel introduees certain ingredients, which are his secrets, and thereby changes the entire nature of the glass. He has j--*»t finished a white, curly glass muff lor a ladv in Bt. Petersburg. He • •barges 40 thalers ($80; for them. Also ladies’-hats of glass, with glass fea'liers. A remarkable -feature of *hi ; glass material is that it is lighter 'ban feathers. Wool made of glass •annot be distinguished from the g-nuine article. Mr. PrengU’s glass invention is something so extraordinary and useful for clothing, etc., as glass is a non-conductor, that, it will probably cause an entire revolution in dress material. Wonders v.ill never cease.

Bright and Wilson.

l<Jinclnriuli Kuquirer.] The explanation of the removal of the legless soldier Wilson by the ser-geant-at-arms of the senate, Colonel Plight telegraphs that he was constrained to take sueli action because Wilson was insubordinate, and refused to perform any service whatever, and that., moreover, Wilson went home without waiting for congress to adjourn, and without asking for leave of absence. Colonel Bright, it seems, considered this an act of insubordination, and- by mail- notified Wilson that his .services were not needed any longer. Taking all the facts into consideration,'the supposition that Wilson wai seeking to make himself appear a martyr to Democratic ingratitude is warranted. He is entirely under the influence of Colliding. He is the possessor of a competency, and is a single man. He owns valuable property, anil, in addition, gets a pension of $72 per month. He is indebted to a Democrat and to a Democrat ie house for $72 pension he gets monthly. The bill to allow all persons who had lost both legs or both aims or both eyes a pension of $72 per month was introduced by General A. V. Rice,- now the Democratic candidate for lieutenant governor of Ohio He pressed tho bilk Lhrough the Democratic house in the fortyfifth congress.

Semetiling Worth Knowing.

Every- little while we read in the papers of some oqe who has stuck a rusty nail in his foot, or knees, or hand, or some other portion of his .body, and that lock jaw resulted therefrom, of which the patient died. If every person was aware of a perfect remedy for all such wounds, and apply it, then all such reports must cease. But, although we can give the remedy, we cannot enforce its application. Borne will not employ it tiecause they think it too simple; others will have no faith in it when they read it; while others think such a wound of small account, and not worth fussing over, untill it is too late to do any good. Y-ct all such wounds can be healed-without tiie fatai conselKiencos which follow them. The remedy is simple,, almost always on hand, and can.be applied by any one, vtnl wlmt is better, it is infallible. It is simply to smoke tlie wound,-or any bruise or wound that, is inflamed,,with burning wool or woolen cloth. Twenty minu es in the smoke of wool will take the pain out of rhe worst wound, repeated two or three times, it will all y ilie worst case of inflammation arising from a wound. People may sneer at the “old man’s remedy" as much as they please, but when they ■ are afflicted, just let them try it. It lias saved many lives and much pain, and is worthy of being printed in letters of gold and put in every home.

To Ohio Democrats, Greeting. 1 The following is the greecing which our State Central Committee send to the gallent Democrats of Ohio: Inl.iahapoi.is, I hd., July 26, 1879. To the Democratic Centred Committee of the State of Onio: Gentlemen —The Democratic party of Indiana bear grateful memory of I the aid and comfort sent from Ohio- ! in past political contests in this | State. While our struggle for political ascendency was still in doubt, your distinguished citizens and orators came to our assistance. The ascendency of our party oeing now assured, we have time to remember our obligations to the Ohio Democracy, and 10 gratify our anxious desire to repay past favors. Our two States lie in the same zone of Agriculture and commerce, and our political interests and sympathy are common. Like our river they commingle and flow in the same direction. Even in a local political struggle our sympathies and good wishes would be with the Democracy of Ohio. But iu a campaign like that upon which you have now entered, the result of which may determine the political campaign of your State, and of the Nation also, we fell a deep and peculiar interest. For nearly a fifth of a century the Republican party has contested tiie administration or the General Government. For the first fifth of that period, while Lincoln lived, it was to some extent guided and influenced by his great spirit, but since that time it has forgotten country and extolled party, and has beeu governed solely by base - partisan desire to maintain its own supremacy at whatever cost. Its unholy mission is to engender sectional animosity, and thus maintain power through a “Solid North.” In its greed of power it squanders the fruits of the war. When the people uprose against it three years ago, and by an overwhelming rote decreed that its corns; of iufamy shall cease, it defeated their will by a fraud t) which, iu unmitigated and shameless infamy, history furnishes no parellel. That party is deliberately seeking to perpetuate its power by destroying the National welfare of the Southern States, and while its ruthless oppression has forced those States into combined opposition to its destructive sway, it seeks to alarm aud embitter the North by false and groundless fears of a new rebellion. It marches under its detestable bloody symbol aud deprecates a “Solid South,” though both North and South may thereby become involved in th« common ruin. Iu your gallant struggle to overthrow this party of fraud, plunder and crime, may Heaven prosper you. In this struggle you have our fullest sympathy auc our hartiest wishes for your success, and whatever of assistance the Democracy of ludiana maybe able to extend to you is at your disposal. With great respect we are, etc., B. C. Shaw, Chairman. James H. Rice, Secretary.

The respect shown the union soldier by the Republican party is not as sincere as iu profession, and tiie recent action of Mr. Secretary McCrary is confirmatory of this declaration. For some time there has beeu employed in the office of the Quartermaster General tiie widow of Colonel Long, of the United States Army. Colonel Long, in a fit of temporary insanity some years ago. committed suicide on account of the intense suffering he had daily to bear from wounds received iu battle. His widow last week was summarily turned out of office, and with three children, is thrown upon the cold charity of the world. Ihe contrast to this picture is vivid. In the office of tiie Public Printer, the patronage of which is distributed by the Republicans is the widow, daughter,sou and son-in-law of Colonel Yager of Mississippi, who some years ago, in tiie streets of Jackson, assassinated Colonel Crane, of the United Mates Army, who at the time commanded the military forces stationed at Jackson. And yet another instance of Republican ingratitude to the soldier: A few days ago Jasper W. Johnson was appointed by Secretary McCrary to a first class clerkship in the War Departmen, and to make room for him a union soldier was dismissed. Johnson turned up here during Bristow’s administration of the Treasury Department, and was sent by Bristow to Cincinnati as an Inspector of Customs, to aid in fixing up the delegations for Bristow’s Presidential candidacy. For this service he was paid S9OO. Since then ho lias been floatin t about Washington after the manner of Micawber. He finally made it appear by some method of reasoning, peculiarly his own, that he had helped Hayes after Bristow’s chances had faded, and he is now turned in to feed at tiie public crib while the union soldier, whose place he takes, is turned out to grass.

The New York Sun refers to Gen. Hancock as a Democratic candidate for-President, thusly: “There are many strong points in his favor. A. West Pointer, and au officer of hitch rank in the regular army, he is yet an upholder of the as’eendency of the civil over military authority. His published political letters, so fat as the sentiments they express are concerned, might have come from the pen of Thomas Jefferson. Efforts have sometimes been made to produce the impression that they really did come from the pen of Jeremiah S. Black. We have good reason for believing this is not true. But even if it were, it would detract little or nothing from the merit of &en. H ncock, for if the sentiments did not originate with him he is entitled to the credit of having adopted them. Were not most of Washington’s state papers substantially composed by Hamilton? And has that circumstance dimmed in the least tiie lustre of Washington’s renown? But we believe Hancock wrote his own public communications, because we have seen private letters in his own hand quite as strongly expressing the same views. Gen. Hancock may, therefore, be set down as a statesman of the sound Jeffersonian school, As a soldier and a citizen Gen. Han cock is without reproach. He is said to be personally popular with the thousands who have served under him. It is not unlikely that before the nomination he will be a good deal more talked about than at present.” When a Republican talks about dangers from the “solid South,” take what' he says with a large grain of allowance. When the South was solidly Republican there was no complaint from 'that side, and the plain truth is that it became solidly Democratic because the Republicans stole instead of governing down there; auil the people, who have anything left tobe stolen, have the same dislike to see the carpet-baggers return to power which honest citizens of New York would experience if it were proposed to re-establish the Tweed ring. —New York Herald.

“None in Mine.”

The words of Senator Eaton in the matter of “keeping the peace at the polls” are well worth bearing in mind. TbeConnectieutstatesman says: ”An army to keep the peace at the polls! That is all that Catharine wanted of oldSuwarrow—uothingelse;and when the old Tartar sent his messenger to his imperial highness, ‘Order reigusin Warsaw,’ he kept the peace. He kept the peace—and 40,000 men, women and children were butchered. “Keep the peace at the polls,” says the senator from Minnesota; “that'is all we require.” That is all Louis Napoleon required. He kept the peace at the polls when he was elected president. He kept the peace at the polls when he was elected emperor. I believe that there were about 7,800,000 votes polled, and about 7,299,000 were for Louis Napoleon, because he was keeping the peace at the polls with tiie army. That is the entertainment to which tye are invited. None iu mine.”

Indianapolis and Delphi.

Delph? Times. As noted elsewhere, the Commissioners will meet on Monday, anfl one of their duties will be the ordering of an election in Burlington township for aid for the Indiauapolis aud Delphi railroad, a petition f r which is now on file. This tax will produce a revenue of about SII,OOO, which will materially added to by private donations. These donations will not be confined, to the citizens of this county, but will be aided by the residents of Howard county contiguous to the line. The good neopie of Burlington township we re never before so enthused, and, in conversation with prominent we have received the assur*anee tha t the tax will be almost unanimously voted. *

Mr. Spurgeon told this anecdote as he gave out an anthem. A high ehurclin tan and a Scotch Presbyterian minister hud been at the same church. The former asked the latter if he did not like the “introits.” He replied: “I don’t know what an introit is.” Said the churchman “Butd’d you not enjoy tb e anthem?” He replied: “No I did not enjoy it at all.” “I am sorry,” said’, the churchman, “because il was used in the early church; in fact, it was originally sung by David.” “Ah?” said the Scotchman,“then that explains the Scripture. I can understand now, if David sung it at that time, why Saul threw his javelin at him.” This was followed' by a loud peal of laughter, when Mr. Spurgeon said: “Now, let us sing the anthem.” «•>-- A freak of a tornado at Reno, Nev., is thus described by the Gazette: “MoorcQe.li Cutter started out with a half gallon of whisky to take to his sick mofiher. He was found some hours afterward lying behind a fence on £he hi 11. He said that he stopped around a corner to fix a cork in the jug, and while he was taking the measure of the oritiice of the jug a tremendous wind came down on him. It sucked the liquor clean out of the jug, blei t it down his throat, aud turned th e jug inside out. He could remember nothing more.” The tri rl of the Whittaker will case in Philadelphia led to the construe tionof an apparatus for tiie detection of forger ,es and alterations, in documents. 'Che paper to be examined is placed at a focus between calcium lights, and the illumination is so powerful that the slightest scratch, difference of ink, or other evidence of tampering, is plainly revealed. A magic lantern w as also used effectively, the genuine signature and the doubtful one being magnified on a large screen. • -<•> It was a very honest old Dutch judge in S chohaire county, New York, who listened for several hours to the argument of conus 1, ami then said: “Dis case .las peen ferry ably argued on botli sides, and dare have peen some ferry nice points of law brought up. Ishall.dake dree days tog( ashler these points, but 1 shall eweutually decide for de blaintiff.”

—— A party of Baptist clergymen were blue-fishiii g off Martha’s Vineyard the other day. The question arose as to whether a, certain specimen was really a biue-fl sh. “Wo call’em Baptists,” said a n.iti ve fisherman.

Indianapolis Seutinel: Those people who refjard lightly the fact that John fkberinan can deposite, and is deposit ing, more than $200,000,000 in a few favored National Bunas, have not c’otsely calculated 'the margin on borrowing $200,000,000 without interest and loaning it at six, eight or ten per'cenf. * —. -<•>-- General Ikaue recently said: “two years ago I looked over the old Army Register aiul found only five of the seventeen American generals who entered the Mexican war surviving. Siuce then, Pillow, Cadwullader, Gushing and. Shields have passed over the dark river.” John-Sher man is going to Ohio to open the campaign, in a few days. It is supposed that he will take Mrs. Jenks and Elliza Pinkston along with him* to help remember whether he wrote that famous Eouisiana letter or not. Prof. Black ie, of Edinburg, put up a notice of regret that on a certain day-he should not be able to receive the classes. A student erased the “e” of the last word. Prof. Blackie came along, saw what had been done, and struck out th e “1,” too.

On Monday last, Frank Weathers, a lad of about 15 years, fell a distance of twenty feet, from the new residence being erected by Judge Hammond, breaking both arms and sustaining, other injuries. The Commissioners of Carroll county yesterday directed orders to issue, to the 1., D. & C. Railroad Company to the. amount of the tax of Jefferson township, voted for the construction , of the road.

RAILROADS.

Xo one cun take a map of the state of Indiana :tnd scan it closely without coming to the conclusion that Rochester is destined to become a railroad center of no small importance. It is situated in a belt of country which no railroad can be built running east or west, without making it a poiut on the line. There-is now under contract and course of construction, a narrow gauge from the east to this place, which, when completed will be one among the best and most important. roads in til* country. It will connect the far east and distant west by a line much shorter tliun any now in operation and as a consequence traveling and freight expenses will be proportionately reduced. Rochester now has a north and south railroad connectihg the capital of the State and cities on the Ohio rivor, with Lake’ Mkigan, the great lumber country of Michigan, and Chicago the metropolis of the west. It will be but a short time until the road above alluded to will be completed and carrying to the best grain markets in the world by the most direct line the enormous farm products of this rich section of country. With an outlet to the Atlantic coast and Chicago, the Ohio river, and Lake Michigan, Rochester will be second to no other town in northren Indiana as a business center. Rut our lippes and prospects do not end. here. This largo and fertile portion of the country that has so long been unoccupied by railroads, is attracting the attention of other railroad men among' the number being parties at Fort Wayne who desire to gather some of the richness with which this country abounds: It is proposed by parties in that city, abundantly able to carry out any railroad project they may undertake, to build a lino from Fort Wayne to North Manchester, there to intersect with the narrow gauge which comet to this plat e. If possible, the Fort Wayne Company will use the Chicago & Atlantic from Manchester to this place. From this point the Fort Wayne will extend its line westward to Kewannn, Winamac, Rensselaer and the Mississippi river. The above is the out. lino of the road now proposed to be constructed by parties of Fort Wayne. Mr. W. H. Jones and J. Gorman, both of Fort Wayne, the former one of the chief movers of the enterprise, the latter a civil engineer, had intended to visit Rochester this week and take a view of the country west of us, but were unavoidably detained at home by tlfe sickness of Mr. Gorman. It is probable they will be here early next week. All these taken into consideration, points with unerring certainty to the future greatness of Rochester. Our imagination is not so lively as conceive that it will ever be the rival of Chicago, but it will be a flourishing city excelled by but few for railroad facilities and surpassed by none for beauty and health, li is now greatly admired by by every one who visits the town and when the proposed railroads are completed it will be the homo of the capalists and men who have an eye on it as the place for the establishment of extensive manufactories. —[Rochester Sentinel.
