Three murders in Indianapolis inridoof a week. Ex-President Tilden enjoys an income of $1,000.a day. * — Whittaker’s ears can not receive governmental attention until the President gets well. Oxford Tribune: Moses Fowler will lose about ono third of his 1600 acre field of pats by the army worm. The I. & C. Air Line advertises for B >0 men to work on the line between Delphi and Indianapolis. The centennial anniversary of the birth of Daniel Webster will JJoceur on the 18th or January next, and the people of New Hampshire contemplate a grand celebration. $334,000,000 in United States bonds is the amount at last accounts held by the National Punks, upon which taey draw interest ant pay no taxes, and yet they are not satisfied.

It has cost old Christiancy. on acc unit of his divorce suit, in the way of alimony and foes, $24,000, and much more will have to be forthcoming before a final settlement is reach ed. —«•>— The coudiiion of tiie President is daily improving, and his recovery confidently oxpected. The “halfbreeds” are not so positive and bold now in their declarations that the “stalwarts” directed the bullet Of Guiteau.

Kentland 'News: Miss Alice Hop kins and Noble J. York, of Renssel ner, spent Saturday and Sunday last, with friends in this place. They returned homo Sunday evening accompanied by Miss Rhoads who had been here for several weeks. 1 -- It is said That Warner Miller, one of the recently elected Senators from New York, deserted fram the army—that he reported to his wire instead <>f military headquarters. But then iic veins the radical ticket and bubbles over with loyal gush.

The Idea that because Democrats sympathize with the President of the United States, the assassins victim that to ho consistent they should sympathize witlj Mr. Garfield, the radical politician, isi a little the thinnest ab surdity yet heard of. Some radical papers are, however, suggesting that notion in good faith. Valparaiso Vidette, July 28: The commissioners, auditor and sheriff of Jasper comity paid a visit yesterday to our jail for the purpose of examining the new ceil arrangement, and they returned unanimously in favor* we are informed, of adopting for a new jail there the same kind. If the wisdom of our present board of commissioners i r s not manifest to all the people; their acts thus far have been generally approved, and this determinate'!) of the gentlemen from Jasper would seem specially to vindicate their judgment relative to late improvements in the county jail.

Benfingtojn News: The Bemlugton Fair Association preseut this year a large amount of cash premiums and an attractive programme for the various departments. This Association has one of the finest grounds in the •State, ample shade, plenty of good water and abundant accommodations for stock of all kinds. The managers are thorough going business men, courteous and just in their treatment to all, and will avoid partiality. The premiums, will be paid as adver used, and our farmers and citizens generally ought' to use endeavors to make the coming fair a success in every respect.

ADVERTISING

E. A, Burkhardt, a prominent apd leading business man of Cincinnati, in a recent address before the Commercial Club of that city spoke upon the subject of advertising as follows: in my own business career, advertising, advertising largely and unceasingly, has oeen an important factor. It was not my plan to advertise fiarningly for a brief period in the trade season and thefi stop. My business has been kept sceadiiy before the public to a considerable extent the year round. I believe it is better to occupy one square every day for a year than to cover a page with letters three inches lung for a week and then discontinue it altogether. In this respect I might also parody the old saying that “a little learning is a dangerous thing,” and remark the same thing of advertising. A little of it is certainly an expensive thing. Eight ly managed, and wide advertising is the most economical meth od a merchant can adopt to win ctis tomers. But advertise constantly or do not spend a dollar. Now, as to general results achieved (and I am not going to give you any of my business secrets) I have cast my rtiiud s eye hurriedly over my experience in Cincinnati, and I am fully convinced j that in fifteen year ’, with the adver- j aieing I have done, I have pushed my business to a standing that would have taken thirty years to reach without advertising. In truth, it is doubtful if I could have at all attained the results I have without the aid of

newspapers. First aud best of all, as a means for a merchant to make himself known are the leading newspapers If I were asked to name the merchant’s best friend I should answer the newspaper. A hand-bill or circular may reach a thousand persons, nine tenths of whom throw it away without reading, but a we 1worded adyertis'ement, printed in a leading paper, will reach thousands of persons, and in a way to commend itself to their attention.

NORMAL ITEMS.

“I” In last week’s Republican calls attention to a resolution introduced at the last meeting of the County Board of Education and to be nassed upon at the October meeting, and hits it a left handed blow. The purport of the resolution, we believe, is to grade the wages of a teacher to correspond with the grade of license held by him, that is, if he holds a six months license pay him a dollar per day, if he holds a two years license pay him two dollars or two dollars and a quarter per day, and for a twelve or eighteen months license wages correspondingly,. We think the adoption of such a measure by the Board would be a mistake aud defeat the very purpose for which it would be adopted—the securing of efficient, successful teachers.

“A workman is known by his chips” is as applicable to school teaching as to any other kind of work. We are to judge of a teaser’s worth by the results of his labor. A lazy teacher, or a teacher that does not know any thine, or one that is gifted with t„o much “gab,” and robs his pupil by recitiDg the lesson himself, is dear at any price, however low. Mauy a teacher with a low grade license has taught infinitely a better school than his more learned and gifted brother teacher with a first class license in liis pocket. Good common sense, tact, powers of discipline, a good knowledge of the mind aud human nature, and many other qualities, go far to make up a good teacher. If a teacher lacks these he will be a failure no matter how much book “lamin’" he has, or how well he can display his kuowl edge. A license will give no idea of their possession, but only indicates how much the teacher knows about the books. School officers are bound legally and morally to know what are the qualifications of the teachers they employ, not alone in regard to their knowledge of books but as to character, culture, common sense, etc. If they hire on the grade of license alone as a basis the chances are all in favor of filling our schools with a majority of “poor sticks” who will do great harm. Missos Lelia Fullers, Josie Parkison j Alice McDonald, Belle Phegley, Emma Gvviun and Mr. S. D. Clark have cast in their lot with Normal crew this week. Two debating and literary societies are sustained by the students. One society held an excited discussion on the question “That the leadeis of the Irish land-league should be exiled.” It was a good illustration of discussion run wild, courtesy wanting, and ridicule uppormost, aud the effect of bluster, unproved affirmations upon a popular audience. The question was decided affirmatively by the house that the leading Irishmen must go.

The Elocution class held an’interesting contest on Wednesday, in which nearly ail participated. Boyd Johnson won the prize. Many visitors called in to see the school this week. Come again. All

are welcome.

Mr. Editor —l understand that at the regular meeting, Monday night, the town board adopted an ordinance to prohibit the running at large at night, between the hours of 8 p. m and 4 a. m., of cattle, fixinga penalty, of from $1 to $5 for violation of the same, and requiring the marshal to impound cattle found on the streets between the hours named. This is a good law(?)—very good for those haying pasture to let, Old Citizen.

Newton Township Items.

Editor Sentinel: While Uncle Simon, Sand-Lapper, and glorious old “Slip Up,” & Co., are having their say in praise of their respective lo calities and the inhabitants thereof, it is time some one would say a word for old Newton. Although we can not boast of “web-footed maidens,” “pretty garls,” nor young men who nossess “top-buggies,” yet we do believe we are having as dry weather as any other locality in the county. Grain cutting is over i nd the rattle of the reaper no longer disturbs the rest of the weary binder, but the bum of the thresher is no>y calling him to a new field of labor, Grass cutting is still the order of the day with seme, and many’s the man who is still whiling away the weary hours tossing the sweet-scented hay in the sunshine. Wheat crop is generally light.

Oars are giving a fair yield ab ho’ damaged somewhat by the drouth, and in some portions of the township the army worm “done its do.’ Tame meadows are light, while wild grasses are generally good. Corn looks very fine but is needing rain badly, Our young fiiend, S. B. Coen, has oeen troubled with erysipelas in the face, while Mr. I. J. bayler has been troubled with the same disease in the arm, together with catarrh in the band, Both haye had a seyere tfipo of it, but we are glad to say they are now rapidly convalescing, Mr. E. G. Warren, W. L. Bringle with a number of others have been attending the Normal at Rensselaer.

Mr. Leroy W. Sayers is building a residence on his farm near the county line, on the Rensselaer and Morocco road. A bridge with stone abutments is being built across Curtis’ creek, near the {residence of H. E. Coen. Esq* Walt. Ponsler. contractor. * A like structure is badly needed across the same creek, on the Rensselaer and Morocco road. We ask our County Commissioners to consider our needs, as this is ono or the most important highways in the county. Mr. J. D. S.. of central Newton county spoke, through the columns of the Rensselaer Republican, of a piece of road in our township being a disgrace to civilization. We accept the compliment. As the gentleman believes, no doubt, that the “pen is mightier than the sword.” We would suggest however that the gentleman try the virtue there is io a mattock, as we believe it would beagredt deal more effective than his “slinging ink with a pen.” Sabbath school each Sabbath at Curtis creek school house, 9$ o’clock a. m., aud at the Sayler school house at 3} p. m. Rev. B. E. Ferguson will preach at the Curtis creek school house next Sabbath, August 7th, at 10i o’clock a. m. Regular appointments every third Sabbath.

Business lively arouud Slin-Up. Weather warm and dry. Grass is drying up and cream getting short. Horse-training is the order of the day. The Air-Line is near completion, and walking is good. Some parties took a free ride out a short time since and returned on a tie pass. Mr. D. Nowels, I understand will erect a house on the Kankakee soon. I hope more will follow his example.

Mr. King, miles west of Rose Lawn, is doing a fair business selling goods. The Kankakee bridge is finished. The man with moustache under the ear is longing for a better time com ing. Heistand don’t like engineering Tie-Pa3S trains.

LETTER FROM COLORADO.

Denver, Colo.. July 27, 1881. Dear Sentinlk : The broken, desert looning surface pf the earth covers hidden treasures of coal and ores. The mines are the present, sustenance and future hope of Uncle Sam’s Baby. The medicinal and mineral springs operate as a health-lift to the broken, down, over-worked ana invalid class, When blessed with money they come nere to be reconstructed. The deepest and grandest canons—the highest and most sublime mountain scenery the largest parks--abundant water power—numberless mill and damsites. and this, the most substantial young oity in the world, attract tourists to its pure air and healthful climate. Colorado is the play-ground of ffie nation. Congress ought to set apart Mouth, Middle, North and San Louis Parks as exempt from sale as one grand central parade ground for tnose needing and seeking recreation. We have merely taken a grip-sack view of the foot-range. We have not scaled the loftiest peaks nor explored the lowest caverns. The climate we find dry and salutary at ull places where we nave taken time to breathe. When we leave, we will have passed through 12 out of 32 counties. We pave become so used to side ditches running full of wafer in the towns, that we love their appearing. Home of the ores are refractory, and mills are yet to be invented which will leave no tailings. We have not crossed the Continental divide—the back-bone—but have seen the front range, and streams tumbling down from their sources in the mountains.

NORMALITE.

Our minds are filled with pictures of this well-named Colorado. For the graspers after mammon, tlieij purses can here be filled. For the purely esthetic this is a panorama of delight. The sustaining vegetables are imported. This is however a State of mauy— very many—compensations, and many draw-backs. The mining of the future, ijbo most manufactures will be done by organized labor, controlled by capital. The individual depending: on his own brain and brawn wilfhave to cross the divide to newer fields in which to use his pico. The future of the State is an uncertain problem. This city has an air of permanence and each Denverite is working to keep this the metropolis of the New West —the Queen City of the Plains.

Woman’s “Rights,” the Nation’s Wrongs.

A freer range has never been given to any subject thaa that given to the so-called ‘Woman’s Bights’ question. The Fourth of July orator in the interim between his pompous flighf.3 on the back of the American eagle harps in his bombastic style upon “the Wrongs of Woman t” temporanoe speakers never tipe of of the good effect which female suffrage would have on King Alcohol, and literary societies are so prone to laud woman ad coelum, that it would seem as if half of these organizations, wheie women compose a'majority ol participants, were transfoamed into mutual admiration societies; that

“Fee simple and a simple fee, And all tho fees in tall. Are nothing when compared to theo. ftf fees—fe-m)<},” So terrific has been (this whirlwind of perverted wisdom, that our last legislature passed a joint resolution whose tendency is in the direction of an amendment allowing female suffrage.

t admire women, have always done so, and will always cpnffpue to do so, »nd it is not that I love justice and right less, that I oppose female suf, frage, but that I love woman more. However, if our next legislature, and then the voters in this State, where each |s t* soyefejgn, flecjde that the now, fihtrieti, and perilous rule of universal suffrage ig the best arrange? ment in this commonwealth, with all reverence and humility J will bow my head and submit to the inevitable. But I will not allow such a gloomy

.conclusion to emanate from my premises uoon this subject, or rather I will take different premises and form from them a brighter, more encouraging conclusion, for the inhabitants of this great State are generally able to read; they know, or should koow history, human and political, and thus they understand, or should understand the status of those affairs wnich pertain to this question in different countries and centuries of the past. Tracing woman’s position from antiquity, we find she was, under the laws of Confucius and Moses, the lat ter particularly, in a degraded condition; in the mythological ages of the Iliud she became elevated several de grees; but in Rome, where she was permitted to dabble and soil her heretofore pure hands in that vile politi cal broth, which was, and is now, boiling, bubbling and beguiling innocents into its seething labyrinth of depravity and putrefaction, she speedily degenerated morally and socially. It was in vain that the Roman matrons, in the last days of the Empire, straggled against that fate which was dragging them to ruin. Each was transformed into a Cleopatra, and was luring her victim to bis destruction for power and Mammon. It is a fearful though that all persons, including the female portion of humanity,’ they who had always been the mainstays of morality and the bulwark protecting a<*ciety from the attacks of political corruption, should be so lost to all tne nobler appeals of the human heart, that all, without distinction of sex, should stifle' their higher natures, and become transformed into inearnate llends, yet history says such were the facts. As it consequence of this demoralized state of society in which both sexes shared the Dark Ages and barbarian rule suc-

ceeded Roman sway. Then woman was more sop irated from man, she gradually became more elevated in a social scale, as the orders of Knight Templars and Knight Errantry confirms, ann tended, as u needle to the pole, to assume her legitimate sphere. As the world emerged from the Dark Ages, woman’s influence extended more and more, and it has continued to expand and enlarge until now, in the meridian splendor of this century, she occupies a position which, in a social light and in a moral point of view, is far above man’s. Her influence is to-day exei ted upon coming generations, and through these upon future k policies and politics, indirectly, vet sweetly, commendably. powerful ly and indellibly. Tne woman of the present occupies a position, honorable, uncorfupted and incorruptible; she is free from the blasphemy, villainy and scurrility which characterize the politics of this age. Taking these things into consideration, and by a continued progress what an influence the-woman of the future co’d have in remedying the vast evils which now afflict our country! And yet in order to accomplish these reforms she should remember that

“A woman’s noblest station is retreat: Her faTrest virtues public sight.” In order to—44mire that respect to her opinions which is necessary for her to effect reforms, and to crush the curses which now like a dreadful canker worm are eating into the vitals of our country, she should keep aloof from those evils which tend to corrupt and lead estray; and politics undoubtedly has this tendency. Man is in divers respects inferior to woman, and looks to her to show to her offspring the pathway to pursue, to attain true manhood and womanhood; but if she partook of his privileges, duties, and responsibilities, she would inevitably become afflicted with his errors Politics, the ballot, office seeking aud office holding have corrupted and degraded man, and by a natural order of things they would have the same effect upon woman. Besides woman has already a heavy responsibility in the world, and, being physically weaker, no good can result to her from taking upon her ait ready overburdened shoulders, those duties, responsibilities and afflictions which undeniably characterize tb© distinct sphere of man. In addition to these principal dis advantages which tend to make female suffrage inexpedient and unde sirable, there are other incidental and lesser evils which would necessarily and inevitably evolve themselves were that the rule. 1 refer to the division in political sentiment lp the bosom of domestic life, or in mauy cases tfye coercive harmony which would be exhibited, aud the demoralization of children where brought up in sueh a state of affairs as either of t lese.

Did female suffrage prevail there would be as much difference in sentiments on political topics among women us is now exhibited among men; there would be an end to all those polite distinctions which nfe now made by men in favor of women. Everything— etiquette, gallantly, politeness—which tend now to place one separate and aloof from the other would be obliterated, for if woman share in man’s privileges she must endure his burdens; and when every one is on a common level, and there is an indicate mature and agglomeration ot the affairs of the twq sexes, man, in his struggle for bread would «ave little time or inclination to think of that respect and admiration which he was wont to bestow upon tho fair sex.

Man should assume that control over publio which all laws, divine and human, entitle him to; anc ladies should not by any hasty and rash act alienate that almost venera tion with which he new regards them. The women of to-day are molding the politics of the future, and they also control and regulate the morals and virtue of the land. Say not, therefore, that without the ballot they lack influence and power. Say rather that they are the leaders in everything, that on them depend the destinies of our nation. Mulier omnia beonat.
