THE DEMOCRATIC SEITINEL ISiPAfkB ts JMWIIOtfMTI. FRIDAY MAY 24. l**3.

Tbk Nkw Supbeme Jtoub —The biographers of the new Supreme Judge. R. P. Hammond, omit one important fact Au his history. He was enoo a resident of Danville a (aw student* In the office of James M. Gregg Esq., and no doubt had his young ambition stimuia’ed by the Danville bar. —The Danville Gazette.

Monticello Herald: In the Revised Statute • of 1681 appears the following note upon a section of ths law: “If a sheriff have levied on goods, And high water has carried them hence, If >.uch flotsam be any excuse He may set up the fact in defense —1 Ind, 528." The note appears in proso form and the rhyme Is not noticed in a cursory reading. Judge Turpie, one of the committee of Revision, is the author of the joke, and sc cleverly did he play it that it escaped the attention of both his colleagues and the proof reader.

Logansport Pharos: Fetor Ward cf Newton eounty, one ot the beet lawyers of the Kentland bar. has been selected as Judge Hammond’s successor. Mr. Ward is very well known In this city and bears the reputation of being a good citizen. He was prominently mentioned for Congress last fall, but ’his name Was not pressed when it was found that DoMotte had a majority of the delegates pledged This appointment will likely drive away all political aspirations, as he will no doubt be elected Judge at the expiration of his present term of service.

An exchange remarks that the time has come for people to watch with far more than usual vigilance for funnel shaped clouds—the gyrating sort which come down with storm, god vengeance and leave death and ruin in their track. People will do well to. think about a refuge from their wrath before they come. If the building where they seek safety is not exceptionally strong the watchword should be "to the cellar.” These funnel-shaped clouds are too numerous and their earthly visitations too frequent for public seres Ly. The frequent exploration of cloud land ie the line of safety and how to escape the fury of the tornado io a matter which recent events are well calculated to impress upon the minds of the people in the city, village and country.

Gknbbal MoClsllan was the hero of tne occasion at the mooting of the society of the Army of the Potomac. No army in tke world was ever setter organised and disciplined than the Army of tFo Potomac during the time McClellan commanded it. His old comrades admire him still. The toast “Th* Army of the Potomac,” was responded to by Gen. Goo. B. McClellan. As the name of their old commander was announced and he aroso to addroso them, the veterans sprang upon thoir chairs and broke into cheer after cheer. For two or three minutes the clamoring was deafening. Men pounded the tables, stamped with thoir foot and shouted themselves hoarse. Viewed from the gallery! just then, the banqueting room was a surging, tumultuous sea of heads, arms, napkins, hats and oven crutches, with which the owners were wildly gesticulating in their enthusiasm and excitement. Gen. McClellan stood calmly bowing during the tumult, and when it showed signs of lessoning he stilled it wholly with a wave of his hand- In a voico of deep feeling, and speaking in measured tones, ho began his greeting to his old command. Every voico was hushed and every ear listened closely to his sentences. The at ten ti on given him was only broken when veterans indorsed his statements at intervals with thoir applause, which was in nowise stinted. He said; In days long passed and gono forever, when wo were young and strong, full of life and hope, with the future all before us, thore were suoh relations between us that it seems to mo too cold and formal to address you simply as “Mr. Chairmah and gentlemen.” - Our chairman often brought me intel ligence that I needed up from the very jaws of death, and when assigned to the command of a division of now troops, he hurried by forced marches to the assistance of his commander on the bloody field of Antietam. Thore can be no form or ceremony between him and mo. Very many, perhaps moot of you, wore with me when in this very city I assumed command of that maos of bravo mon, unorganised and uneonstrueted, coms nosing the nucleus of what afterward became the Army of the Potomac. Those of tou wno were with mo then were more to me than dear comrades; more than brothers in arms, were as mv very children. This was McClellan's opening, ai d in thio strain he proceeded to the Sose He B P° k * of in which fba »® d 1 did • ur b * ,t f * r OUr J Lnntrv " and recalled the well loved' anffiZiitor faces which all missed mi 1 sketched * briefly some of the nrincipal battles, and alluded to the Mvon day®’ as mado In “ebeidionoo to orders from Washington to cover the advance which never camo, though the enemy came instead.” -Fortunately,” he continued, “this had boon foreseen, and days before transports with supolios hod been sent to the James to await the army." °ar* ° f the gallantry with which the army to ichtwhen removed from his comand the glad confidence with whTch it welcomed his ;of the battle of Antietam; of his withdrawal from tho Army of the Potomac on ihat he then believed, and still be-> SSTed was the evo of a decisive batSrnow to meet that army again as IU wmSander. Continuing ho said: -The army which it was mv fortune JJkntao and create; the army that an amy of votoians, I, as its am dad to know was unsurpassed-by a “ 8 !T the historic armies of the y id in offisienoy. vtlw or

NUMBER EIGHT.

AVOTHEB ' -S

[The Indianapolis News.] Hon. Stanton J. Psello :| I had a talk a day or two ago with a Republican who said • “I agree with what you have been saying, and see clearly enough that our party sooner or later must change its course in this tariff business, but I believe we can carry die Stale next veer on the principle of a ‘high protective tariff.* ” You see in this the assumption of the “practical politician’’ that the voters, the common people, the workingmen, can be cajoled into believing that enormous bounties paid to a few selected monopolists will produce an extra abundance of food and clothing for those who work for wages. There is dan ger that our party leaders may thus underestima*e the intelligence of the masses. It Is sate to fool the people to the top of their bent while they are in the humor to be fooled, but they make quick and thorough work with their deceivers when they open their eye? to the true state of the case. To show you that they are already opentag their eyes. I copy hero an extract from a letter addressed to me by a mechanic who works in one of the largest machine shops in Indiana.— He says:

“I am’employed in one of the large shops of in this place and am bro’t in daily contact with a large number ot the mechanics and workingmen about the place, mid find your letters ire heartily indorsed by a large portion of the Repub licana about the works My object in writing to you is to assure yon that there has bsen in the last two years a radical change among the workingmen of this place in reference to the tariff. I helped organize the Republican party in Indiana in ’56. and since that time have been identified with the party and have been brought into close contact with tho labor ing portion of the party, and therefore spaas advisedly when I say that the laboring mon are disgusted with this talk about “pauper labor** by men who axe importing duty free pauper labor to compete with them. I think you may safely say to our leaders that if they attempt to carry Indiana la 'U on * high tariff platform, they will be worse surprised than they were last fall. The fact is the Republican party must face about or go under.*'

This man represents a large class who are tired of hearing platform palaver about protecting home industry, when they see the men who write such platforms enacting laws which increase the hardships of the laborers, while they add to the enormous wealth of the mon who employ tho laborers. Statistics, such a g Mr. Kelley produces showing the rapid accumulation* of wealth in the country may gratify one's national pride, but what should interest us more is to know how the wealth is distributed. Wealth unequally distributed, where the inequality is not the result of legislative interference, but comes from thought and industry on the one hand, or idleness and wastefulness on the other, gives no cause tor com. -plaint. But where laws are enacted, such as the tariff laws we have been oxamin. ing, at the dictation of the rich and powerful, the oflteet of whieh is to diminish the food and clothing of the poor and weak, there will be signs of discontent. A good citizen should take no pride in the growth of great private fortunes and corporate wealth if it results in widening and deepening the gulf which separates the rich from tho poor. Poverty disfranchised and ignorant may be kept in subjection with the bayonet. Poverty armed with the ballot and intelligent.enough to trace effect to cause will punish its oppressors. Sissy jupe says that when her teacher Mr. McOhoakumchild was explaining to her class about National prosperity, he said : “Now, this school room is a nation. And in this nation are fifty millions of money. Isn’t this a prosperous nation? Girl number twenty, isn’t thio a prosperous nation, and ar’nt you m a thriving state?*’ Bissy boipg number twenty and unsophisticated, answered that she didn’t know, and thought she couldn't know whether it was a prosperous notion or not, or whether she was in a thriving state or not, unless she knew who had got the money and whether any of it was hen.

Sissy Jape's hesitation was natural.— The French peasant, gathering nettles to make broth for his starving children, took ne satisfaction in the knowledge that the nobles of Paris were enjoying themselves, and loyalty to the Queen can not reasonably be expected on the part of Irish peasants who are barely subsisting on a small allowance of “third rate potatoes.’' Something telle the French peasant aad the Irish peasant that It is not God, but the unjust Jaws of man that afflict them thus, and the affliction is none the less because it is said by the rulers that the public good requires it. Mon with ballots will find a way to prevent or correct such evils before they are brought to a diet of nettle soup and ’‘third rate potatoes," Now it so ha*, pees ths* we are producing |n this country a dans of nabobs who can only sub- | slot in a community where the rich are getting richer end the poor poorer—a state of things which, continued a few years longer, will bring many of the working classes to this nettle and potato diet er no diet at all. When you hear that Jay Gould approves your high tariff legislation it should make you put on Jour thinking cap and consider what you ave been doing. Gould’s money shows what genius for villainy, aided by corrupt legislation and a corrupt judiciary, may accomplish. Jim Fisk, the accomplice of Gould's earlier crimes, said it was folly to acquire money by the slow process of legitimate business when It could be obtained by tho speedier method of “rescuing property from its owners.’'— The Grand Opens House, of New York, and the Erie Railway wore the fruits of thefirst petty larcenies of thqoe footpads —a mere bagatelle to the later devil fish acquisitions of tho surviving partner, whose exchequer io now said to contain 8180,000,800. Every dollar Of that sum reprsaenta a hard day's work of some la borer. Not a dollar of it has been gained in legitimate business pursuits. O un« ning lawyers, corrupt Judges and pliable legislators have conspired with Mr. Gould to filch it from tho pockets at men who labored to produce it. For one I am not pleased with the spectacle. I take no comfort in the assurance that Mr. Gould put >408,800 in ths Republican campaign rand in 1880. It is probable that he also contributed liberally to the fund with which Benater Barnum was carrying on tho mule trade in Indians, for ho has more than once declared that he was noi* thsr Republican nor Democrat, but worked with either party when it helped his schemes. The point I wish to impress upop you is that legislation which encourages the rapid accumulation of such fortunes is vicious and dangerous. The really dangerous classes in this country are the lobbyists who procure such legislation. The Bessemer steel lobby was powerful enough to induce Gongrees to enact a law which, if not speedily changed, win shut up every rail mill lathe country but those owned or controlled by tho steel monopoly. It can not possibly be true that you voted for that law with year eyes open and with a full under•taadtag of its pecteteiy effects, Yen

profits of a giant monopoly of the Stale. tit Pennsylvania, and says to the people, of Indiana who have invested their semes in two large steel rail mills that they shall not turn a wheel. Wen I in your place 1 had rather cob fem that I voted in ignorance off the purpooe and effect of sueh alaw than to any that I gave it my InUlligent Ignorance and folly in a logwator are bad enough-hut iqjusttas is f£ww«»W.

Gemgihk Viourr Soap.—Genuine violet soap, which is generally sold in »are lumps, marked ‘Finest perfumed brown violet soap,” enjoys the great, eat approval of consumers nn account of its agreeable odor, It is certainly made in every large manufactory of toilet soaps, but there are great discropencies as regards the manner of its manufacture and the composition of the seent. The writer has for many years used the following process for making a very fine violet soap in the cold wsy. The process is as fellows: Finest cocoanut oil, 48 pounds. Fresh tallow, 14 “ Best Lagos palm oil, if “ Melt together. To a portion of the fat while still hot add 2 pounds powdered and alcoholized orris root, and 2J pounds powdered and alcoholized bergamot rind, equally distributed. The manipulation is best effected by sifting the perfhmes into a large mortar, rubbing continually, and adding more fat until a homogeneous and moderately fluid mass has been formed, which is then added to the mass in the pan. In the same manner 1| pounds of liquid stores Is dissolved iu some pounds of the Siixed fat with the aid of heat, and the quid mass is carefully strained tnrough B cloth into • pan. The whole mixtare of fat is then allowed to cool down to 90 deg. F-, and 31 fts. lye and 1 pound potash lye, at 66 deg. Tw.. are crutcbed in the usual manner.

Before putting in the forms the soap is farther perfumed with— Mitcham oil of lavender, 250 grains* Bergamot oil. 136 '•• Sassafras oil, 7# “■ Balsam of Peru, 70 “ Ceylon oil of cinnamon. 10 Musk, 2to 8 “Q . The musk is ground fine with a little >milk sugar, moistened with the oils, and worked into the soap. The soap when first cut has not a very fine color, and tho smell is tar from agreeable. In the course, of fourteen days it takes a good brown color, and the odor improves with age.—Chemical Review. -.

Value of thb Sunfloweb.—Agriculturists claim it is tho best egg producing food known for poultry, keeping them in a thriving condition and largely increasing the production of eggs Every poultry raiser who tries it; will find that this seed is the best food known for glossing the plumage of fowls, sad is almost ludispensale to those who want to fit their birds for exhibition to the beet advantage. The Russian sunflower is easily raised, requires very little care, can be grown in fence corners, or other places difficult to cultivate. Its production of seed is immense, yielding often at the rate of one hundred bushels to the acre. It should be planted in hills four feet apart, any time from the 10th of May to the Ist of July. Three quarts .of seed will plant an acre.—(Scientific American.

New Invisible Ink.—O. Widemann communicates a new method of making an invisible ink to Die Natur. To make the writing or the drawing appear which has been made upon paper with the ink, it is sufficient to dip it into water. On drying, the traces disappear again, and reappear by each succeeding immersion. The ink ie made by intimately mixing linseed oil. I'part; water of ammonia, 20 part*; water, 100 parts. The mixture must be agitated each time before tho pen is dipped into it, as a little of the oil may separate and float on top, which would leave an oily stain upon the paper. An excellent authority in medicine recommends a little common sugar as a remedy for a dry, hacking cough, and gives scientific reasons for it. It troabled at night or ea first waking in the morn ing, have a little cup on a stand close by the bed, and take half a teaspoonful: this will be of benefit when cough sirups fail. —Scientific Am' rican. Removing of Freckles.- lhe careful application of a small piece of the ointment of the oleate of copper at night upon retiring will usually remove freckles. The oleate copper ointment should be prepared by dissolving one drachm ot the salt of oleate of copper In sufficient olee-palmitic acid to make a soft ointment. —Shoemaker. After the dust has been thoroughly beaten out of carpets, and they are tacked down again, they can be brightened very much by scattering cirn meal mixed with coarse salt over thorn and then sweeping it all off. Mix tti«* salt and meal in equal proportions.—Scientific American.

Three factories in the United States consume nearly two million eggs a year in making the peculiar kind of paper used by photographers known as albumen paper. Goal tar sugar is the latest discovery. Its chief advantage over other sugar is its superior sweetness .—Scientific American. - The American Bell Telephone Company has, it is said, erected 1.000,800 miles of overhead wire during the past year. Washington* Star: Years ago, when Mi. Conkling and Thad. Stevens were members of tho House, and ths latter chairman of committee on ways and means, one morning ho reported back an appropriation MU with an Item omitted in which Mr. Conkling had some interest. Boon Mr. Conkling presented himself in front of the qkairman and rather peremptorily demanded the reason why. Old Thad looked the gentleman over in silence for a moment, and then replied: “Young man, unscrew that curl, so that you can get your feet down upon the floor, and I win talk with you."

A. B. Brown, a convict confined in th* Northern Prison, has perfected a car coupler, and bad it patented together with O. S. Dale. It is very piaclfoable in its operation. Leven are so constructed tnat the coupling pin may be raised or lowered either from the top ot the ear or the side. Since so many accidents occur on account of car coupling it seems advisable that some, of these patents should be tried—Michigan City Dispatch.

Horatio Seymour talks like a wise man in announcing his belief in a tariff for revenue only. It will not be long before advocates of a tariff for anything else than revenue, will be hard to find, f3r the people are earning to understand that when taxes are laid for anvthtaglelse than the benefit of the government, it is for the benefit of (private individuals, and Americans have changed their nature if they will stand that. .
