The list of premiums of (he Jasper County Agricultural Society will appear iu the next issue of this paper. Ihe "Tall Sycamore” is making it lively for Sherman, Sehurz, “Calico Charley,” & Co., iu Ohio. The Chicago Times says he “mops the flloor with the radical party. ’ In 1870 the radicals hud a majority of 14,000 in Maine; to-day that party is 20,000 in a minority in that State. The same can be said of California. No wonder they don’t crow. The decision of the Supreme Court of Indiana in the Northern Prison ease is in favor of the new boar d of directors—Hoover and Lev*. This will be good news to their many friends in this par t of the State. - We to-day publish a list of the officers and by-laws of the Jasper < ounty Agricultural, Association, as well as the Programme, and Rules and Regulations sor 1 the conduct of the Fair, beginning October 7lh next, The Delphi Times annoyingly risks: * Could the Rensselaer Union be indiced to print a catalogue of the Republican editors of the State who saw service in the Union army?” Yi-s, the Union <•<>uul, but it won’t. Jt would occupy but little space, lliat is true, but the Union Won’t do it. AdvertiscKs are notified that, by a provision or the statutes of Indiana i ounl v auditors are required to publish a list of the bill i allowed by the county commissioners ru the newspaper published in their respective counties which has the largest circulation therein.-- Union. Ah, well, yes, and yet the Sentinel hits the largest bona fide eirjulation. Mr. Conkling’s Just “greatest of fort of Ills .life,” after his late interview with ex-Governor Sprague’s shotgun, is the nomination of Alonzo B. Cornell for Governor of New York. He bargained with one parly in the convention to nominate a man aimed Churchill for Comptroller in consideration of obtaining the roqui site strength to accomplish Corn ell's nomination on the first ballot, but lie couldn’t deliver the goods afterward, and a candidate named Wadsworth carried off the doubtful honor. The Daily Saratogian, an ardent Republiean paper, thus speaks of Mr. Conkling’s ticket: “The ticket is our own offspring, l.et us not deny its paternity. Though i* be cross-eyed, bandy legged, weak in tlie back and unhandsome, still it '•‘me tons and we mm-t take care of it. Perhaps the next one will he better looking - * The Nation thus describes the effect of the Jreedinau’o Bank swindle " hieh is now under juv stigatiori by a committee of congress in Washington, of which Senator Bruce of Mis"tssippi (colored; is .chairman: “Of the effect of it on the thrifty j iiml intelligent portion of tj u , negro population we need not speak. When a bull dozer goes after a black man v ith a whip or a gun it fills him with bodily terror, but it does not. shake ois belief iu the existence of morality i itself. But when a blind or Stalwarts get together, and, after weeping over his condition, offer to take i c*re of his money for him, and having got it, divide it among themselves mid disappear, it makes him doubt whether there is justice auywhere on earth; and this is very much what tiie Stnlwuats of the bank did. We warrant that every one of the rogues is to-day bewailing the ‘outrages’ at tlie south, and shouting for a ‘steady hand at the helm' in Washington,” The Delphi Times puts its thus : “Reader, if you think resumption has been a success, ask the farmer who purchased a farm when wheat was and finds he iniust pay 90 cents what i >c
