THE END.

This lx the last issue of the DAILY TKBRE HAUTE NEWS. Why? you may ask. The object in printing a paper is compensation—which the NEWS hasn't received. We have a subscription list of over 000, but advertising has been limited, exceedingly. While we conld continue it, and bank on the future, we think it best to suspend publication. The experiment has cost us over $800, and we don't want it to reach $1,000, because that $300 weald buy, say, a cow. The figures are odd—if it was $10,000 it would be better. To all who have said a good word for the paper, we say, "Thank you. "T~3ye earned your good word.

It is the largest mill in New England, aad cost $1,500,000. The loss at present is not ascertainable.

PITTSBURG, March 29.—The Oak Alley Presbyterian Church was the scene of another disgraceful row between the Woodside and anti-Woodside factions, the presence of the Mayor and police being necessary for the preservation of peace. Both factions had called meetings for the morning to elect trustees. The Wood siders announced that they would hold theirs in the church. The opposition, to avoid trouble, called theirs in the house of the janitor. When the latter arrived there they found the Woodslders in pos sijssion. The anti-Woodsiders asserted their rights, and insisted upon their election. A general row ensued, and the police were summoned to stop it. More trouble is apprehended.

RICHMOND, March 29.—At a Democratic township convention, held Thursday evening at Thistlewaite's Hall, the Hon L. C. Abbott, known among the braves as 'The great brass-mounted harangued a crowd of fifty-one persons, including himself and two minors, on the infamous outrage perpetrated on the woYkingmen and voters of Indiana by the Republican managers of the North Carolina exodus in running thousands of worthless niggers into the State to take the bread from their mouths and the government out of their hands. He citcd as an example of the Radicals' dastardly work, the gang of niggers who had been brought here and set to work in the quarries at the lime-kilns six miles east of town, while honest white men, whose families are suffering for the necessaries of life, were thrown out of employment to make room for them. The unwashed took up the howl, and it has been used as a campaign cry among the laboring men of the city. A reporter for the Palladium, who investigated the bugaboo, found only one colored man in th pit, and he had lived within five minutes' walk of the quarries for twenty-five years, Mr Smith, who employed him, is a dyed-in-the-wool Democrat, and the quarries are two mileB ove? the Ohio boundary in "Preble county. This was Mr, Abbott's maiden effort in Richmond, and was so brfllla&t that he has taken a deep hold on the affections of the Democracy, and will hereafter be thrust forward whenever there is need of a leader.

NEW YORK, March 29.—The Evening Post's dispatch from Cohoes, N. Y., says: A strike in the Harmony Mills has become general, and 5,000 workmen are in the 8trelt8V „The excitement is great 500 looms are in operation, a few French weavers having returned to the miilg, but these explain that they will only use up the fillings en hand, when the looms now running will be stopped. The more turbulent strikers declare that this was but a subterfuge to enable the men to remain at their looms, arid a significant cry of "Out, or conscquences!" was sent forth in terms of rage. A force of police are held in reserve to meet any emergency. Harmony mills are equipped with 275,000 spindles and 62,000 looms. They give employment to 5,000 operatives, to whom $125,000 are distributed every four weeks. This morning a committee of section hands waited on General Manager Johnson and demanded that the notice served on Thomas Brieriy to sever his connection with the union or consider two weeks' notice given, be recalled. Being informed that this point could not be yielded, the section hands joined the striking movement to-day. Wm.E.Thorn, treasurer of Harmony mills, Is also mayor of the city. He has given the police orders to suppress street demonstration. This morning two drummers, volunteers from the strikers' ranks, mfcile parading the streets, were arrested. They were followed to the police headquarter* by 1,500 people. Promising to refrain from it repetition ot the offense, they were released. McDonnell, aNew Jersey editor, serving a term of imprisonment in the Passaic county jail for publishing Incendiary articles, and who wfll be released on April 1, has accepted an invitation to address the strikers on April 2. The officers of Harmony mills say to accede to die demands of the strikers would be virttfaUy turning the future management of the mills over to tbe operatives. Thi* th*y are determined not to do.
