Farr, of Fairfax, whom the Mahone Readjusters have just elected Superintendent of Public Instruction in Virginia, is a member of the Leg islature, and the reporters are making fun of him. In one bill introduced by him he spells aggregate “agrigate;” in another he spells levied “leveyed” all through the bill, and gives amended “amendid.”

The Boston Herald seems to be impressed with the idea that General Longstreet has divided the Demo cratic party of Georgia. If the Herald wasn’t situated so far from the hurly-burly, it would appreciate the situation more keenly. We are willing to admit that the Georgia Democrats are divided in Boston —Atlanta Constitution.

The country is beginning to compre bend the cost of Republican infernalism. Congress is beginning to de liberate upon the Garfield bills. Just what the final amount will be nobody kruws. It is now reported that the railroads which transported the President when living and his remains when dead will all hand in their bills. If they do, and we see no good reason why they should not, the sum total will doubtless amount to a half million dollars. The Guiteau trial will probably cost $250,000. so that the cost to the people of the Republican factional fight over spoils will doubtless amount to $750,000, and there need be no surprise if the amount goes to $1 000,000.

BEECHER AND THE TARIFF.

It is publicly announced that Henry Ward Beecher has entered the lecture field against Protection. This is not the first time the Rev. gentleman has entered the political arena. He had the temerity to advocate the views entertained by AndrewjJJohnson at the time he was President of the United States, but, when he discovered hp was not in harmony with the Republican party, he went back on himself, and it is not unlikely he will pursue the same course on the Protective system. Beecher is not to be depended on either as a religionist or politician. - He is as vacillating as a weathercock and will always be found pointing in the way the wind blows He is a bad penny, composed of the most worthless alloy. It is his ability, and not his hones :y, that gms him any prominence. No one will object to his proclaiming his views on the tariff, be they what they may, provided his doing so does not dis*urb his relationship to the Republican party. Whatever may have been his influence, during the past, nothing is more apparent than the fact that ha is now powerless to effect any measure either religious or political. So far as religion is concerned, he might as well be on the side of Bob Ingersoll as where he is. The man who takes upon himself the sacred office of embassador for Christ assumes duties that are important, responsible and delicate, and so long as he confines himself to the proper performance of these duties he will be entitled to respect aud confidence ; but when he steps down from this exalted position, assumes the role of a partisan and parders to the prejudices and corruptions ot a politicel party, he forfeits this respect. The relations of a Minister of the Guspeljare pecul.ar. The office he bolds is not temporal, but spiritual in Its nature. In its results and conso quences it is related to another state Of being. It is no|part of his business to preach polities. His calling is of another character; he is commissioned to preach the Gospel, to point out the way of life, to instruct in holy things—things pertaining to a future stftfe. Christ is both Master and exemplar. His kingdom is not of this world and, therefore, Hfs servants are not called upon to fight. The Roman government, under which he lived, was despotic in its character, arbitrary in its demands upon its subjects, telerated a system of slavery the most oppressive of any that has ever existed under a civilized government and, yet, neither himself nor His commissioned teachers acted the part of politicians. His mission was not that of a statesman. He decreed no rules for the organization of states or nations; He commissioned no His business was to do the will of His Heavenly Father by preparing the way for sinful man, and inspiring him With love to God and the hope of eternal life. The minister who degrades his calling to promote po itical ends is justly an object of suspicion, and is unworthy of confidence either as a preacher or a politician. J- M.

The minister wno opened the Supreme Court at Auburn. Me., with prayer the other day, opened his petition with the words: “And at last, may we become dwellers of that land where there are no lawyers, no Judg and no Courts. Amen.”

Reynolds, editor of the Democratic paper at Monticello, recently skipped leaving many creditors to mourn bis absence. He was an ex-lowa republican, well-known by our down-town neighbor, who informed on him, but they, preferring to believe Reynolds, got badly bit.

Scarcely had Reynolds, an ex-lowa republican editor vamoosed from Monticello, than our down town neigh * bor beamed in upon them, but, judg ing from the temper shown in his pa per this week, it is evident they bad no kindly feeling nor encouragement for any former fellkw countryman and political brother of the departed Reynolds.

We commend Mr. Weaver to the tender care of the “Stalwart” of the Guiteau persuasion w-o esteems Grant as greater, nobler, and more patriotis than all others, considers him entitled to divine honors, and cannot tolerate a different estimate of nim.

Bose’s Rival, Favorite, Hermosa, Minetta, Jolly Robber, Smacks, Startle, Game, and Our Valentine — all choice brands of cigars at the Postoffice lobby, The Philadelphia Inquirer, a hard money Republican paper, says: “The Republican party, by supporting Mahone in Virginia, and lending him material aid In his battles of repudiation, has committed its-If to that financial and dishonest heresy.” President Arthur holds, like the priestcraft of old, that if, by lending, material aid to Mahone, he an breuK up the Solid South and disrupt the Democratic party, the ends justify the means. Arthur is nothing but a machine politician.

Arthur out of the New York Custom House on the charge of gross dishonesty. Chester A. Arthur who drew the capital prize “in the lottery of assassination,” is now officially informed that the very time that Sherman was putting on such magnificent professions of honesty he was tolerating in his department the most shameful sneak-thieving ever practiced in the country. Republicans are disposed to steer clear of such revelations. John Sherman is known to be rotten The Indianapolis Herald says truth fully that for nineteen long years Gen. Fitz John Porter has suffered under the ignominy of treason and incompetency thrown upon him by the hatred and jealousy engendered and propagated by such lickspittles as Generals Logan and Pope. Gen. Porter’s downfall was conceived in the mean spirit of jealous?, and prosecuted with the malignant venom of malice. It is aome satisfaction though that al thte late day General Grant is compelled by a sence of justice and right to defend General Porter from tne charges of treason and incomeetenoy and publicly con--tess that he haa been foully and shamefully wronged by the country. It is not expected that either Gen. Logan, now a Senator from Illinois, or Gen. Pope, the Bull Bun butcher, will ever have the manliness to make the amende honorab'e to the injured man.

Mr. Jack Bratner has just lately received from the Turpie brothers some land and goods amounting to nearly S7OO. Saia land is in this townshif. We regret to state that Mr. McElfresh, an olc and reliable citizen of this township, died at his home, Tuesday, January 10th, 1882, after a severe illness, aged 73 years. The deceased was born in Maryland, near Washington, removed to Ohio, and a few years ago from that State to this, where he lived the remainder of his days with his daughter, Mrs Maggie Clouse. - But the Angel of Death is ever visiting and removing from our midst friends and loved ones, and silently calling them to the spirit land, We miss from our neighborhood a beloved friend whose absence will long be felt. The family now mourn their irreparable loss, and watt for his coming in vain. There is a vacant chair we can see, but midst all our sorrows come the sweetest hopes of immortality, and lift our thoughts above the trials of earth, and bids us looe above to that blessed iieaven of re pose, where, we trust, our dear friend is now resting from his labor. Th® community has lost an upright find honorable citizen, and the family a loving father. Remains were I rn to Brown’s Cemetery followed by > large concourse of relatives fin friends. We tender our most sinefir sympathy to the mourning kindred in this their bereavement. A READER, January 11,1882.

Insitute Notes.

The Gillam teachers held a very interesting Institute, January 14th, at Center school house. We had a good time. All the teachers were present and ready foi work. The Institute was called to order at 10 o’clock a. M., with eleven members and five visitors present. The subjects were all well treated, and nearly all followed byjively discussions. Vena Bouk gave the first recitation, a paper on the plan of teaching the Diacritical Marks, which was both interesting and instructive. An explanation of the Winds, th clasess and causes, by C. W. Faris.— This subject was thoroughly treated, and all enjoyed ifvery much. A paper on the life of Wm. Penn, by Ella Long, was nicely written and well received. M. A. Osborn read a paper on the organs and process of hearing, and quite a lively discussion ensued. A splendid paper on the history of Jasper county was read by Lizzie Faris. A class drill in the Fourth Reader grade was Piven by M. A. Makeover, which advanced some new ideas in he manner of conducting a recital! o n in that grade. The subject, Common and Decimal Fractions, by Elmer Ratbfon, was next in order. The boys thought they would embarrass him, but he was too well posted for that. A paper. Sherman’s March to the Sea, by Belle Faris, was nicely arranged, and well read. F. L. Hum placed a general outline of work, in Language and Grammar, on the black-board for pupils of all grades below the Fourth Reader, and explained it satisfactorily. This led to that same old question: Which should be taught first—Parsing or Analysis? The teachers generally were in favor of combiuing tne two. After all miscellaneous business was attended to Institute adjourned to meet again on the second Saturday in February next.

CARPENTER ITEMS.

The former correspondent of the Sentinel having been discouraged by the witticisms of the New’s editor, refuses to make a second attack, and desires us to conduct the retreat to some place of safety and stack arms. Dr, Patton has applied the vaccinevirus to nearly five hundred arms since the passage of the law by the State Board Health. J. 8. fanvleet has sold his farm to a gentleman from Illinois and after visiting his parents in N. Y., will roturn to Johnson county to engage in ths firuit business. James F. Irwin is mentioned as a probable candidate for Trustee of this township. The present incumbent, W. H. Henkle having expressed bis intention of locating in Bleeding Kansas at an early date.; Not less than eight farms, all lying west of Remington, in this Twp, have been sold at fair prices within the last thirty days. The general verdict is that real estate has suddenly advanced five dollars on the acre. A good place for speculators to make a* “corner.” For one week, at least, Goodland paid fifty-five, and Remington fifty* three cents a bushel for corn. While the corn delivered at the former place was shipped through the latter on its way to an eastern market. Why so?

Quite a sensation occurred at • ! revival in Jordon township the other evening under the auspices fit KeyBloomer. He stationed himself in the back part of tne building aud indulged himself in some personal 1 iquHies JJactostiag -• • 8 follows: Are you a Chntain? No, sir, was the reply. But, continued the miniester, do you want o go to hIT His laconic, but distinctly audible, reply was—l don’t care ag— d where lg 0? X.

Mr. John B. Aiclen, who organized the "Literary Revolution,” which has given the people best of book at such wonderfully low prices, does not give up the fight with the failure of “The American Book Exchange,” which failure,.ho claims, was in no respect the result of selling books too cheaply, but was caused by the combination of publshers and booksellers against the enterprise; infamous and baseless slander being scattered broadcast culminated in a “panic” among the creditors of the institution, causing a “run” which resulted in the failure Of the company, just as it has often caused the failure of banks or other institutions perfectly solvent under ordinary conditions. He and othe r friends of the enterprise have organ ized “The Useful Knowledge Publsh. ing Company,” and a literary Rebellion which proposes to carry or. the fight. The first work published by the new company is a beantiful edition of Macaulay’s “Life of Frederick the Great.” which they sell for the marvellously low price of 20 cents, neatly bound In cloth. The company proposes to begin immediately tne publication of a series of cyclopaedias one of history, one of biography, one of science, one of choice prose literature, one of poetry, and one of religious literature each of which cyclopsed ias will be in several large octavo volumes of over 1000 pages each at the price of $1.25 per volume, in cloth binding, and will also be published in numbers, at only two cents per number, being considerably below even the “revolution” prices!

The Weekly Sentinel is in all regards a superior eight page 56 column paper. The merits of the Sentinel as a general newspaper are so well known, that com mendation of it is superfluous. We will add, however, that the management has arranged and fully determined that no paper shall furnish so great practical value to its patrons for the money. In its news, its editorials, its literary, and miscellany—in a word, in its general reading -it shail not be surpassed by any paper circulated in the State. It will be particularly adapted to the family circle. I No reading, thinking man in the State I can afford to do without the Weekly Seni tinel at the small cost at which it is furnished. The Sentinel will continue to be the same earnest advocate of true American Democracy in the future that it has been in the past; indeed, it proposes to battle more vigorously than ever agaiust the party of centialization aud corruption,— Vast monopolies own and control the Republican party, and in the future, as in the past, it can not do otherwise than foster class legislation, thereby trampling upon the interests of the producing masses.

The motto of tiie Sentinel is, “Hold fast to the Democratic faith and battle on,” and as certainly as God reigns vicorywlll ultimately be with the peopleThe Republican party can not survive Its crimes. Its monumental iniquities cast their shadows athwart the land. — Just men of alt political opinions are horrified at i's colossal crimes Its ambition is for plunder and imperial power. Its downward progress, from the days when Grant’s thieves organized the Whisky Ring to raise a corruption fund, to Guiteau’s tragedy, has been marked by infamy at every step From the days when John Sherman barteied Federal offices for perjuries to seat Hayes, crimes have followed each other in rapid succession. The flood-tide of thievery has flowed grandly. There have been Star I Route thieves, Treasury thieves, Navy Department thieves, War Department thieves, and Signal Service thieves, and Indiana has had Dorsey, the notorious Star Route thief, and Secretary of the Republican National Committee, in the State, organizing crime to carry the State against the will of the people. The Sentinel will invite the people of Indiana to contemplate these Republican methods to obtain and maintain power. It will Keep its readers informed with regard to Republican fights for spoils, the mutual denunciations of its factions, their criminations and recriminations, their mutual hates which culminated in the assassins* tion of the President, thereby capping the climax of horrors and completing the work of infamy, With.this record of crime, the Republican party asks for a new lease of power, and it will be the high ambition of the Sentinel to defeat its purposes and emancipate the country from its debauching grasp. The Sentinel, in addition to its superiority, is, moreover, an Indiana paper, devoted to and specially represents Indiana’* interests, political and otherwise, as no foreign paper can or will do, and ought, therefore to have preference over the papers of otner States, and we ask Democrats to bear this in mind, and select Your Own State Paper when you come to take subscriptions and make up clubs.
