• Senator Tootles has accepted an invitation from Admiral Porter to dciiver aD address at the unvei uir of the Furagut statute. ' Five hundred negroes left Hunting ton, Tenn., recently for Kansas About 1,000 will emigrate to the same State in May from the same local,ty.

Latest returns from the Chicagu municipal election give Mayor Hatrison, Democrat, close to 8,000 majority. The Democrats also elect City Treasurer, Attorney, and Clerk. Au ice-gorge at Davenport carried away the Northern line dock and warehouse. On the Bock Island side tho Diamond Joe warehouse wes crushed bv blocks of ice sixt} feet in height.

When Mahone sold out to the Republican bosses, lie stipulated foi certau goods, which the bosses promised to deliver. The Republicans can’t deliver the goods, and Mahone may possibly go bark on the bosses.

Mahone put a chip on his should, r which was, to* him and his radical backers, unexpectedly, but promptly, knocked off by 7 our Dan. Oeh*. Mahone! you are ninety lbs. of iovelicess, and Judas Iscariot was ditto.

.John A. Logan—Black John —lias just waked up to the fact that he was loyal iu 1800-61, and talks of defending his record. He might as well try to convince the conutry that he is a blonde with golden ringlets, instead of the Black Prince of Egypt.

Every county in the State has already provided the necessary blanks for assessors. Now comes the Republican legislature and by ehaDging the law makes it necessary to have new blanks of a different form. The old blanks are useless aDd the cost of them ought to be charged up to Indi ana’s fool legislature.

The charge some democratic papers make that the republicans last fall held out a promise that they would enact a stronger temperance law if they should have the power, the Auburn Courier substantially denies if. —Valparaiso Vidette. It is probable the democratic papers are rs well posted on that mattei ns th* Auburn Courier.

There were tiled with the Secretary of State Friday last, articles of incorporation of the northwestern Indiana Christian Conference. There was no oupital stock mentioned. The Conference will take in its jurisdiction the counties of of Cass, Fulton, Miami, Marshal, St. Joseph, Laporte, Starke. Pulaski, White, Carroll. Tippecanoe, Bonton, Jasper, Lake, Porter and Newton.

The Detroit Free Press say: “Ai thur’s voting in th# Senate may be in entire accord with one provision of the Constitution, which gives him the casting vote in case of a tie. But it is seriously in conflict with the other provisions which guarranlees the States an equal representation in the Senate. Practically, New York has three Senators, whil no other State has mure than two.

The Chicago Times says: “Blessed is it to be a brigadier at the tail of the Republican kite. There’s Mahone nothing’s too good for Mahone, the repudiationist. The administration loads him with flowers and offices. There’s Longstreet—he’s to be recalled from Turkey to oe made Marshal of Georgia. There are curses for Lamar, but if Lamar would bow down and worshin the Admioinistration he’d be an augel who could have anything he wanted.” And then there’s Mosby and a host of others.

An excharge remarks that “the reduction of wages of mechanics goes bravely on in New England. Ten per cent, at at Smithville and 8 per cent, at Windham, both in Connecticut* are the latest reported eases. The owners of these mills could not support Hancock Tor fear that if he was elected the wages of the poor employee would te cut down. They went Tor Garfield, because his election meant steady work and good wages.” It will hardly require four years to convince laberinf men that the Republican party is basely hypocritical in allot its professions, and when another election comes round they will hardly be mislead by Republican flapdoodle.

Rev. John Jasper’s firm belief thr.t “tho sun do move” has been peculiarly profitable. Hu ie'-in demand j as a lecturer on the subject, and has from that source obtained money to pay a debt of S6OO on his Riomond ehnrch. The Memphis Appeal says: So long as Mahone was a Democrat he was denounced as a traitor and a repudiating robber; but wbenhe knocked at the door of the Republican sanhedrim and told Conkling and Edmunds, at d Hair ana Logau, that he had fallen* and anointed himself with the oil of Republicanism, the traitor and robber was made high priest at tho parly altar. If John Wilkes Booth, the slayer of Lincoln, shouid mysteriously turn up alive in the United Slat, s he would be triumphantly acquitted and made a leader bv announcing lbs allegiance to the Republican party.

The. Republican bosses begin to <j ilize their infamous position. Republicans throughout the countiy are becoming indignant. “Mahon-’' says a Republican exchange, “lias recanted nothing und amended nothing in his system of politics. He stands only on tho conglomeration of ignorance and knnveery which proposes to scale the public debt of the State; y. t he is admitted into full fellowship with the Republican party; and he dictates not merely his own place on the committees iu the Senate, but tlie election of Mr. Gorham to be Secretary; and tire author of the Virginia act of repudiation to be Sergeant at Arms.” Such is the condition, and there is no means whereby it can be obscured, and it is weli said t iat. “there is not rai i enough in the Heavens to wash the hands of the political leadens guilty ol such a bargain.”

It is a little strange how soon after the election all interest was lost in finding the ailedged forger of tho Morey 7 Chinose letter. The Democratic national committee appropriated a certain amount of money to be used iu ferretting out the rascal and the Republican leaders urged to pursue the investigation, but as soon as it had been definitely determined that Garfield had been elected, the Republicans refused and are still refusing to have any tiling more to do iu the matter. Although the friends of Garfield deny that he was its author, they dare not push the investigation for fear that it will be fastened upon him. The forger, if a forgery has been perpetrated ought to be caught to be caught and punished, and Garfield is the man who ought to oe most interested in finding him. Why is it that he is not on the hunt of the man who wrote and forged his name to an infamous letter?

Hayes the fraud stained Republican President, during his oecupnucy of Tilden’s office, sent in ter. vetoes, and, as it is well said, “not one of them reccOtxencled itself to the bet ter judgement of the country, and the last was simply an outrage, for it wiil endble the banks to pocket millions which rightfully belong to'the people. The vetoes are catalogued as follows:

He vetoed the silver bill February 28, 1878, which, however, was passed over his vt 10 to the injury of no material in terest, but to the benefit of our mining industry and to the advantage of the finances es the country generally, He vetoed the bill for holding a special term of the United States Court in Mississippi, to try timber thieves, March 6, 1871); the bill to restrict Chinese immigration, March 1, 1879; the army appropriation biil with the measure prohibiting the use of troops at the polls attached, April 29,1879; the military interfereuc bill,May 12, 1879; the judiciary expenses bill, because of restrictions as to the emoloymeut of Marshal* at elections, June 30, 1879; the special deficiency appropriation bill, which was intended to provide for the appointment of marshals by th* United States Circuit Courts, from all political parties. May 4, 1880; a biil regulating the appointment of Special Deputy Marshals at elections, June L 5, 1880; and lastly the refunding bill. It will be noticed that his vetoes embraced th* evil purposes of favoring Chinees immigration; partison appointment of election officers, and just favoritism of National banks. Now, we challenge the Republican bosses to point to one of th* list which was in favor of the interests of the people. From first to last they are tainted with rascality, and some of them are covered all over with infamy.

A correspondent of the Scientific American says: “Let any one who has an attack of lockjaw take a small quantity 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 a piece Of flannel on the chest, and in every case three or four drops on a lump of sugar may be taken inwardly.

Delphi Times: The track of the Chicago & Indianapolis Air Line, betiveu Bradford and Rensselaer, was changed to u standard gauge last Saturday and Sunday 7. This chnng* works a great saving to the company by stopping the transfer of ties and iron, used in the construction of the road, from standard to narrow gauge cars.

The Journal folks and son e others of their customers hero have been trying to talk them into removing to LaFayette, but with poor success so far, on account of tho great superiority of the Tippecanoe water at Montieello.

Springfield (lU.) Journal: The mail train ori the Chicago and Alton road had a singular race with the rain-storm. At every statiou for a hundred miles to this place, and it is not known how much farther, the rain had just commenced to fall as the train reached the statiou. At no place had it rained enough, when the train arrived,to wet the planks on the depot platform, and at only one place did the train get away before sprinkling commenced.

Remington X ews: Mr. Hart’s friends, of whom we spoke two we?ks ago as having been compelled to return to England, because Of the disability of the steamer in which they first took passage, arrived here on the 23d of March, having left England on the sth. The party originally consisted of six. but after the unpleasant experiences cons quent on the disabling of the steamer above alluded to, two of them decided not to come at this time, leaving but four: Thomas Archer with hia wife and child, and Samuel Mayo, a brother-in law. We welcome them to our town and wish them abundant success in whatever they may engage. Morocco Courier: Last Saturday a rather dubious and dilapidated individual made his appearance *in town and wandered about iu rather an aimless and uneasy manner. He claimed to be a plasterer by trade and had entered into some sort of an arrangement to work for our friend John Don, tiie coming season, But late Monday afternoon, the Sheriff of Pulaski county, dropped down nere and laid official hands on oui tramping plasterer. He said the fellow had been confined in jail at Winarnae on charge of larceny and had sawed his way out last week. After securing the prisoner, the Sheriff started home wiih him the same eveniag. The tramp said that although his vacation had been a short one, he had on oyed it immensely and lie was loth to return to the dungeon again, but nevertheless he returned.

Wedded by Wire.

Winfield (Kansas) Courier. Thursday evening we hart the plea sure of witnessing a most novel and interesting Ceremony. It was performed by telegraph. The lady, Miss Frances Crow, with her relatives and friends, were at the telegraph office here, while her affianced, Mr. J. Denniug, with th* officiating clergyman, was at the office in Lexington, Ill.— About half past six the little instru ment on the operator’s table began ticking out the words which joined the parties in the lioiy bonds of mat rirnony. The operator copied the dispatch, the bride stood up and read “Do you, Frances Crow, take tkis man, Jerry Denning, to be your lawful husband,” &c., &0,, to which the bride answered, “I do.” This answer was sent over the wires, and after a quarter of an hour suspense the operator again read, “I de therefore pronounce you husband and wife.’ The operator then announced that congratulations were iu oraer, and she was surreunded by friends who extended the usual courtesies. She left for the east on Wednesday morn ing’s train and will likely meet her husband half way. She has not seen him for several months, and ; should the3'fail to make conseclion not get together for several days, it will only heighten th# romance connected with the affair. The Coueiek extends its congratulations to the happy couple and hopes the experiences of mar tied life may prove more real, tangi ble and satisfactory than the eeremony that made them one. The Kentland Gazette adds that Miss Frances Crow is a daughter of Joseph Crow and was formerly aresi--deut so Washington township, Newton county.

Walker Township Iteme.

Ed. Democrat : Feeling that we wo’d bke to see our township represented in your paper, we taae pleasure iu offering you the following items:

We notice that the Republican has a, correspondent in this township, but it seems to mo that the said correspondent is very partial with his items as he docs not give those who are opposed to his political faith any credit for what they do. Now we \fent it distinctly understood that Walker is a Democratic township; and none dare dispute it. Schools are fast drawing to a close. It is reported that the schools have had a better attendance this winter than any previous, tho cause being the inducements which the Co. Sup’t has been holding out to the scholars.

The Philomathian Society is flourishing finely under the superintend ency of its present officers. The question for diseussioq last Frfday night was— Resolved, That the United States should have Free Trade with all nations. Question very properly decided in the affirmative. We are very sorry to say that Mr. Jesse Osborne, of our township, has removed to Gillam. "Walker’s loss is Gillum's gain. The best wishes of the people of Walker go with them..

J F. Antrim’s school will close in two weeks. J. F. expects to return to Iveenes and farm the coming sum. met'. M. A. Osborne’s school will close in three weeks. M. A. is asueeess as & a teacher. He expects to join his pa rente in Gillam soon. The “Old Reliable” has returned from his visit to Lake county, and commenced a spring term of school where he taught last winter. Hoping you will give us space for these few remarks we will try and do the subject justice next time. April 2, 81. “Bill Dad.” A The obelisk is known in New York as Vanderbilt’s toothpick.

Women and clergymen never wholly recover from a scandal, though it may have no shadow of truth in it. The Arabs say: “Take a bit of mud, dab it against the wall; if it does aot stick it will leave its mark.” “Yes, sir,” said Mr. Gallagher, “it was funny enough to make a donkey laugh. 1 laughed till I cried.” And then, as he saw a smile go round the room he grew red in the face and went away mad.—Boston Post.

“I declare, John, I never saw sueh a man. You are always getting some new wrinkle.” And the brute calmly replied, “Matilda, you are not, thank foitune. If you had a new wrinkle, you would have no place to put it, dear.”—Boston Transcript.

Colored preachers may not always get ihe words of seripture, but they generally understand its spirit. One of, them wanted to quote the text, “The harvest is past, |the summer is over, and we are not saved,” but not being able to read, he gave the fist us it thus; “D* corn has been cribbed, dar ain’i euy more work, an’ ole Satan is still foeiin, wid dis community.” Our American colored man, Uncle Billy, in discussing the civil rights bill, gave his opinion of it in this way: “We can smoke wheneber we please, stop at de hotels, spit on de earpeta and make de white folks ’tend on de ole nigger. You bet daris fun cornin’.” But when he was asked if he understood the provisions of the bill he exclaimed: “Bress de Lor’, am dar perwisions in it? Den I’m heart and soul in it.”

N ATDONAL BANK.

The following was published and sent to the raembeis of the Senate and House of Representatives, with compliments of Peter Cooper: The conversation, copied from the Daily Press, presents the operation o* our National Banks in a manner so clear and convincing as to make the path of duty plain to every lover of his kind and country. A republican asks a national democrat to make plain bis reasons for his violent op position to our system of National Banks. The national democrat says

—“Well, let us go across the way and get tho evidence from the banker himself:

National Mr. B inker, how much money did you loan the government? Banker—One million dollars, sit. National-What security did you take for the loan? Banker—l took the Government’s bond payable in twenty years, drawing 6 per cent, [gold] interest. National—Do you still hold that bond? Bunker—No; I pawned it to the government, and received on it $900,000 of national currency. National - What did you do with the $900,000 of currency? Banker—l paid it out to the people for property. National —What security have the people that the currency you paid them is good? Banker—My bond is on deposit us collateral for its final redemption by the overnment.

National—Then you have parted with nine-tenths of your claim against the government by passing it over to the peop'e in exchange for their property? Or, in oilier words, the people have reiunded to you 90 per oenr. of your loan ti JtheJgoveriiraent, and taken a lien on your bond? Banker —Y»-s. National Do the people draw from the government nine-tenths, or their proportion of the interest on the bond? Banker—Oh, no; I still continue to draw the entire interest without being taxed; while the ptople who own ninetenths of the claim draw no iutere t and are taxed to pay mine. National—Then really, the government owes you but SIOO,OOO of the million, you have transferred $900,000 of the claim to the people, and at the same time the latter are taxed to pay you iuterest ou the whole?

Banker—Those are about the facts under the law. National—To whnt exteut does the law allow you bankers to carry this system of speculation? Banker —We are not limited by law. We can carry it to the extent of the bonded debt of the nation, and, as John Sherman is obliged to increase the bonded debt from year to year to obtain gold to pay interest, we oun cairy it to the extent of our opportunities for speculation. It is one of the nieest schemes ever invented. It is like a ratchet wheel, it takes all and gives nothing. The whole people are taxed to pay us interest on wha: they do not owe, while we are exempt, even from our own burdens. National —Do you expect to hypothecate more of your bonds for currency, and transfer them to people for property? Banker —Yes, as soon as we can get the infernal greenbacks out of competition and property values are depreciated enough to enable us to rope in three dollars’ worth tor one of currency. This we intended to do when we got a clause inserted in the redemption act to allow us to inflate our bank currency without limit.

National—What amount of bonds do you now hold, which you are not at liberty to “putup” for bank currency? Banker—Near two thousand million dollars, with what we already have up. National—By handling the $2 000,000,000 of bonds and the nine-tenthr or $1,800,000 000 of currency, as you did your million dollars and $900,000 of currency, what would be the result, financially, of your investment? Banker The resalt will be, we shall carry but one-tenth or two hundred mill.ons us the public debt, while drawing interest on tho whole. The people will carry niae-tenthe of the draw no interest, bat have the privilege ox paying ours. National—How muoh will your annual interest amount to? Banker—About one hundred mil lion. National—What do the tax-payers get in return? Banker—Nothing. National—Then you contracted to extend a eertain favor to the government, for which you were to receive $100,000,000 in gold, per year, from the people. But through the agency or your national banking machinery you are enabled to make the people perform nine-tenths of your contract, while you reaeive the entire reward. Is not this a most autrageons robbery—a swindle upon the pec» pit? Banker [John G. Deshler. president Franklin National ba*k, Columbus, Ohio], says:—lf the people are such fools as to yote fonmen to putsaddi- ■ on their backs, spurs on my and then inyite me to ride, I am m g going on toot. If it is robbery, tb # j

the people who sustain the party that authorized the robbery are to blatoe, and not the robbers. I am most profoundly impressed with the unmeasured importance of paying off at once our national debt, with the people’s money, that was wrongfully taken from them and then converted Into a national debt —a debt that must now bo paid off to save our country from being further enslaved io the curse of a perpetual national debt.

Ehhich’s Fashion Quarterly is like the swallows; its cotniug proves that Spring is here in earnest*, acd that the dreadful winter of 80—81 has at length receded into the .past, to furnish forth a fruitful theme for fireside discussion ou many a future winter night. • Ths Fashion Quarterly, as usual, is full of information for the fair. It tells them what to buy und how to get it: what styles have gone out of fashion, und whbt are comingiuto vogue: and its copious dessriptiousaudprice lists will enable its readers to practice a wise economy, by foreieeing, and providing for, every item of the season’s necessities, A strictly novel foature of the present number is the system of Ladiet* unmade dresses: which is intended to enable u lady to secure the most fashionable goods and patterns, without being subjected to the charges of a New York dressmaker. Under this system, the Ehrichs’ furnish the materials and patterns of the various costumes illustrated in their journal, for a ' xed price; sending not only the dross goods, but the lining, trimming, buttons, sewing silk, and, in short, everything but the needle and thread, The economy of this system is evident, and it is safe to predict for it an immense success.
