The Czar of Russia was killed the 13th inst. Frye, of Maine, succeeds Blaine in the U. S. Senate. No member of the Poland Commit- " tee need apply for an appointment under Garfield. The Republican State of Minnesota has settled with her creditors at fifty cents on the dollar. The motion to confirm the nomina of Bobt. Lincoln as Secretary of War was made by Mr. "V oorhees. It seems to be settled that Hon. Edward McPherson will be First Assistant Postmasteral General. Were the Constitutional Amend ments constitutionally subbmitted io a vote of the people? That’s the question now. Gov. Porter has been compelled to call an extra session of the Legislature. This will cost the State $125,' 000. So much for Republican incompetency. * Clark Mills, the sculptor, took a piaster cast of the features of Senator Carpenter after death, from which a bust is to bs made for the Congres* sional Statutory Hall.

Simon Cameron said of his son-in-law W ayne MacVeagh, (Garfield’s attorney general) a few days ago, that the best he could say of him was that he was a “snob.” Gen. Geo. B. McClellan, of New Jersey, has been elected a member of the Board of Managers for the National Soldiers’ Home, in the place of Gen. John Love, of Indiana, deceased. The Pittsburg Post prints a war episode in which General Garfie d figures extensively as the man, who, under military law, signed the order for the execution of a great grandson of Martha Washington. It is false to say Hayes was made President by accident. He was elevated to power, and the record will staud against him and his party while the world stands. He has won an •ternlty of infamy. We have never purchased a glass or liquui auu OiauK it aa a Viov.vaoe We have never purchased it in any quantity and used it as a beverage.— Can the immaculate Corkins say as much for himself? * The Kentland News says S, P. Thompson, of Rensselaer, made the closing address at the temperance meetiQg at thatfDlace Monday night of last week, giving his ideas in a concise and pleasing manner. “O, that we had keen an editor like McH wen.“—Corkins. Oh, how eloquentl “How romantic!! Yain delusion—he don’t mean it. He knows that he can improve upon the management of the Chicago Times.

It has been proved that at the receni charter election in Philadelphia, a man registered in twenty-four different wards and voted once in each, for which interesting day’s work he got $25. Philadelphia has a strict registry law. McPherson, who, according to the Republican, and a few other radical papers, figures Garfield a few thousand majority on the popular vote, has been invited by the new postmaster general to accept the position o f first assistant in his department. The Democratic members of the Forty-sixth Cdngress voted for and passed the three per cent, funding bill, but the retiring radical fraud strangled it. This strangling operation will cost the people from $12,000,000 to $15,000,000 per annum.

Chairman New, of the Indianapolis Journal says: “Pernaps it wll be advisable to run the next campaign in Indiana without a central committee or any local organization. There seems to be a growing opinion that such machinery is an incumberance.” Chairman New is jealous of Dorsey. Governor Porter has vetoed two of the bills passed by the legislature. That body might as well adjourn and and the members return to their homes, for it does not appear to be able to accomplish any good for the State. The bills vetoed relate to fees and salaries and defining cruelty to nlmals. A correspondent of the Scientific American says: “Let any one who has an attack of lockjaw take a small xuantity of turpentine, warm It and pour it on the wound, no matter where the wound is, and relief will follow in less than a minute. Nothing better can be applied to a Severe cut or bruise than cold turpentine; it will give certain relief almost Instantly, Turpentine is also a sovereign remedy for croup. Saturate ft piece of flannel on the and chest, ftnd in every case three or four drops on a lump of sugar may be taken in fvardly. ,

Tyner has been appointed minister to Peru—lndiana. Kentland News: Mr. W. G, Smcot, a most worthy citizen of Iroquois towhship is enjoying the advantages of a petit juror this week. He is the gii*st of his son-in-law, Sheriff Ulrey. M- nticello Herald: Scott Harrison lost liis light hand by having it caught in the cog wheels of Kan’s saw mill Tuesday evening. It was amputated by Drs. Clark & Tracy at Dr. Robinson’s office Wednesday morning. Over in Ohio the former friends of Hayes are so aeliamcd of the means by which he was made President that they hare a distaste for calling him President Hayes and a prominent Republican paper says, “Let us call him Governor.” Quite right, Hayes is entitled to be called Governor but has no claim upon the title of Piesident. 4AM An old man-rapidly acquired $30,060 worth of property at McGregor, la. Feeling that he would soon die, he wrote letters to his relatives in the East, soliciting aid to cdfry him through the winter. The only response wafe from a niece, who sent him SSO out of her earnings as a school teacher, and to her he left the entire estate.

Arthur is now in a position where

he can repay John Sherman for kicking him out of the New York 'Custom House. Sherman is in the Senate over which Arthur is the President. He can rap John over the head at pleasure, especially since Arthur’s New York friends have presented him with a gavel of solid ivory ornamented with gold. Among the Ababs. —CorKins—John, how do you like the way I use Mac, up, this week?, John—The deuce of it is somebody else did it for you? Corkins—lt didn’t toko me ten minutes to write it. John —Copy it, you moan? Had you written it we would be a week in arriving at tiie meaning of your English. Fowler Era: The editor of the Rensselaer Republican came up to Fowler Tuesday for a removal of life ennui, attending his normal existence in Rensselaer, it’s wearing on his physique. Ennui — Ennui!—Oh, Yes, Webster defines it as a feeling of disgust. Disgust at What? Rensselaer? Poor fellow But. than he’s goiug to Heaven soon. “Where the wicked cease from troubling and the weary are at rest.” The meincit slanderer of General Haucoek, during the late canvass, was Grant; and he is ashamed of himself, judging from his efforts to avoid the former. He staid away from the ceremonies at Delmonieo’s the other night on the occasion of installing the officers elect of George Washington Post 103, of tiie Grand Armv of the Rcnn»%lic, because he was afraid he should meet Hancock. Slanderers are always cowards.

Posey County, Indiana, claims to have raised the largest cow in the world. Her name i* Lady Posey; breed, mixed Durham and Big English. Her measurement are: Greatest height,s feet 10 inches; girth 8 feet 9 inches; length 10 feet 6 Inches, or iuciding tail, 17 feet. Her form is good; aud, though not fat, she weigh 3 3,000 pounds. Her color is red and white, red predominating. Age, six veais. Her present owner lives in Stark county, Illinois. • . - =— Monticello Herald: Messrs. Mitchell & Taylor, of Terre Haute, Ind., who are the attorneys looking after the Kenton laud claims, have written ten to Jos. V. Iveuton, under date of March 9, that they ; re in great hopes of recovering a number of his Kentucky land claims. One of the firm has just returned from Greenup, Ky., where a suit is now pending for the Kenton claimants, and the prospects are favorable for the recovery of 4,000 acres of the land iu question. There are several thousand acres of land in that region supposed to belong to the Kenton estate and estimated to be worth sls per acre.

Who can tell what has become of the old military bounty land warrants? There are outstanding nearly twenty-five thousand of 160, 120, 80 and 40 acres each which were issued to soldiers or their heirs for services rendered in the Revolutionary war, Florida war, 1812 war, Mexican war, Arostook war and Indian wars. They amount in tha aggregate to over two’million, five hundred thou sand acres. They must be among the old papers left by your giandfather, your father or your mother, and not thought to be of value. Let the reader of this article see if he or she can not find one oi more of them, and when found, take steps to secure the legecy that rightfully belongs to the decendants of these old patriots.

Did Corkins say anything personally derogatory of Messrs. Smith and Ross, when they applied for license? No, Why? They were Republicans. Did he name out and condemn personally those mixed up in the billiard hall racket a few weeks ago? No.— Why? They were republicans, and officials at that. Does he ever indulge in personalities toward Republicans implicated in wrongdoing? Nary time. Why? It wouldn’t serve his partisan purposes. Does he make It a rule to reflect upon his political opponents? Yes la and out of season. Why? For party reasons. Is he as anxious for the right as he professes? Yea, verily, provided it is profitable to the party, and through the party t© himself.

D. A. Fawcett, formerly editor of the Flora Record, was admitted to practice law at the bar of Carroll Circuit Court, last week. Our neighbor across the hall is again parading his right to hold and express opinions, and how cheerfully he will permit others to hold and express different views; throws out a little taffy to Reynolds, tackles us for advertising applications for license [which would be as readily granted on written notices], and then says be is going to heaven. Hear him; “Freed from the shaekles that bind us in lowly estate, we shall be permitted to rise above the sphere fit only for‘amateur’editors and dwell in the realms made glorious by the evenesceut light that radiates from his intelligent countenance upon numberless sateliles that wait around his throne eager to catch the words of Wisdem that fall, like dew, from his honied lips.“ Too had —too bad. So soon as ho gets there, he’ll presume to dictate to God Almighty how the universe sho’d be governed.

Hew They Get a Drink in Maine.

“ Whiskey in Maine,”says Neal Dow “is carrid in small bottles in the pockets of the liquor rellers and deatl out upon the sly; it is pui into tdh pote, placed upon the. kitchen shelf; it is uuilt into the walls of houses, in tin cans, with a small rubber pipe by which to draw it off; it is concealed in small bottles in the bed; it is concealed in bottles under the floor, put there through a trap that can only be reached by removing the bed; it is concealed in small flat bottles in the ash pit under the ovens of cooking stoves; it is hidden in wells, attached io strings fastened some inches below the surface of the wafer; it is buried in manure heap*; it is hidden under the floor of the pigsty; it is hidden away upon the fiat roof of the house, access to it being only by a ladder through a scuttle; it is hidden in attics, under the floor and in cellars buried in the earth.”

Iu accordance with a decree of court and order of eale the 1., D. & Craibyad has passed iuto the hands of holder* of bond* of the road, and a new company na» been organized under the style of the Chicago & Indiiauapolis Air Line. Mr. Kent, the President of the old company, occupies the same position in the new, as, also, does Colonel Yeoman, the posi" tiou of Superintendent. What the intentions of the new company are is at present unknown, but it is fair to presume that the change in the organization will effect no especial change in the final completion of the road to Chicago. All accounts contracted by Mr. Yeoman have been paid, or are in process of liquidation, which makes a showing of fairness that should, and will redound to his credit, personally, and start the new company off with tiie confidence o" our people. The Times would be pleased to give its readers a full, detailed account of the intentionsoi the new company, k ut - r k.\j inese tact are not obtainable, owing to the fact that the opinions or our citizens and those of the company are at variance, the former believing that the transfer of property in which they have such a large monied interest should be done after the fullest explanation in which the cause of the change should be thoroughly understood, while the company seems to think the masses are assess, who have no interest in the matter, except to issue bonds and pay interest. We do not wish to be misunderstood as inferring that the interest of our citizens are iu any especial danger, in fact we have strong hopes that the change .will be beneficial iu the future, as it has already been to those who hold accounts against the road, but we are positive that the public would be better satisfied, and that it could iu no wise injure the future of the road, if there was less secrecy in the matter. In the early construction of the road, the contractors, Yeoman, Hegler & Co.and our people enjoyed each others’ confidence, the pros and cons were discussed, and, if the contractors were embarrassed, our citizens promptly responded with their aid and sympathy. Yf these relations could now be enjoyed between the present company and eur people, we are of the opinion that they would reeult mutually beneficial. —Delphi Times.

THE AMENDMENTS. Senator MeDonald Upon the Amendments Creating a Registry Law.

As professional business calls me to Washington, so. that I will not have the privilege of voting next Monday upon the question of the adoption of the amendments to the Constitution. I desire to say I could not give my support to those clauses which provide for a registry law, I should be glad to see an amendment changing the time of our general elections, so as to avoid the necessity of holding two elections every fourth year when we are required to appoint Presidential Electors and also te confer upon the legislature authority to prescribe a proper term of residence in the Election District as a qualification for voting. But from a somewhat extended investigation into the workings of the registry law, particularly in the States of Pennsylvania, New York and Massachusetts, I am fully convinced that eo far from preventing fraud, such laws have been and will be used a 3 a cover for frandj The testimony submitted to the Senate Committee, of which I was a member, in regard to the registry of Boston, disclosed the startling fa. | that there was from 4,000 to 5,000 fraudulent names on the registry of that city, while in the cities of Philadelphia and New York it was still worse. No man is more anxious than I am to secure fair elections and pre-

vent frauds, and, in my opinion, the best mode of doing this is to have small Election Districts, well-defined,, and to require a reasonable residence in the District, say ten ortwenty davs, as a a qunlifieatioa for voting. No Election District should contain more than 150 voters, and then those charged with the du.y of executing the election laws, as well as all others who might take an interest, eould know every qualified voter in the District, while the small number of votes polled in any given District wovld prevent ballot-box stuffing and insure a fair count. The Legislature has power under the present Constitution to provide for all this, except the question of residence, and with small Precincts and proper vigilesce, fair elections can be had in our State.

J. E. MCDONALD.

Indianapolis, March 10, 1881.

General McC lellan.

General McClellan was one of the guests at the Hancock banquet in New York on Saturday night, but the regular dispatchas brought only the brief remarks of General Hancock on that occasion. General McClellan made a short speech, which a New York Sunday special reports as follows: General McClellan said; I taank you for your kind mention of my name, ami for the cordial welcome given se. It would probably be in bettei t.uste were I to confine myself to a simple expression of my thanks, and leave m3’ place to others more capable of speaking to you to-night; but I have been rather painfully reminded of the rapid passage of time to night by the fact being recalled to me that I am the oldest living, not in the point of years, but taking th» order of dates, the oldest living defeated Democratic candidate for the Presidency. If we count Presidential terms us generations I can count our own great statesman, Mr. Seymour as my son, Mr. Tilden as my grandson, and my r gallant friend and comrade opposite ms as my great-great-grand-son. [Laughter and cheers.] I may well well be proud O-' heading such a distingushed line. lam sure that you will all agree with me that the party and county' have had quite enough of us. It may seem cruel and unnatural, but I am glad to hope and do believe that I have attended the somewhat difficult remit result of seeing the last of my line. [Laughter and cheer*.] One word more and I have done. A political party is much like an army, with which lam more ae cuatomed to deal than with politics. To achieve success we need as a party tiie same elements that gave our army victory - discipline, leaders in whom ali trust, patriotism and selfdenial, and principles for which to fight. [Applause.] The best advice that I cau give to any Democrat who will listen to me is that in the future that we should forego all personal interests, all controversies and fall

have enabled us to survive defeat and winch have characterized and marked the Democratic party from the earli est period of its existence. [Great Applause.] Charlie Stackhouse returned from a Missouri exploration on last Friday. Charlie says Jasper county beats what he saw of that section.
