It is to be hoped that the Nationals will help the Republicans at the polls next Tuesday, not only in voting, but in watching that the Democrats don't get in the tramp element that is always escorted to the polls on election day. The law requires a residence in the Ward thirty days immediately preceding the election.
Thkrk is something very fishy about the affidavit of the editor of the Peoria Journal in his sworn statement of the circulation of the Journal for the week ending April 28d. It appears that the bona fid* subscribers vary In one day to the number of over 2.22f. "Denmark, thou smelleth to the heavens."
Ik France leading politicians are discussing the propriety of compelling priests to do military service. "We have bad "fighting parsons" In this country, some of whom made creditable records in the late war for the preservation of the Union, and probably they have similar material in France.
Ykotkrday Jake White In company with Bob Fllnn, made the tour of the Fourth ward. We told the Fourth ward people one day last week that Jake White and John Lamb would take charge of the ward, and we would like to know if the people In that ward are going to be led by the note by such men.
It has come to such a state of affairs In this city that John Exodus and one or two other? hold the Democratic party by the coat tall. If they are the type of Democracy that are to take charge of affairs, ths city had better make an a* aignment

Nrw»-According
to the stat
ute* of Indiana. Is a man entitled to carry concealed weapons to protect himself, whose business or traveling cause* him be out at night, and Is generally known to have in his possession targe fums of money at different time*.
Siecostj War»v
The statute is as follows Every peraon not being a traveler, who shall wear or carry any dirk, pistol, bowie-knifa, dagger, sword in cane, or any other da®" gerous or deadly weapon concealed, or who shall carrr or wear any such weapon openly, with the intent or avowed par* pom of injuring hi* fellow mas, shall upon conviction thereof, be fined in any Mim not exceeding fire hundred dollars.
OTJH CANDIDATE FOB QOVEftSOB OF DTDiajtjl ovesus forward to that period wiieo thip people* *o£Sour State will be called in to sele& one%f her citizens for the important position of Governor. It Is but natural that the public mind should be cast al| over the State in ordef Chat the mnal giiitaKIo rPan twn pmr-nrml far that position. Among the names that have bee ft presented for that office, there is none that strike* the mass of the peo pie, and those who know him best, with more force and availability, than the name of Mr. William It. McKeen, of our own city. This is a period in the history of our State, and the signs of the times require that a man of rare qualification and fitness, and one who can draw to him every age and class of our people, and have their support and confidence.
We believe that the history of the past, so far as the same relates to office holding, and to the character of our leading politicians, has had a tendency to somewhat disappoint those who come in contact with every character and class of our great men of business with the great channels of trade, and in close connection with the inter-state commerce of the great west, and in these particulars, no man could surpass him in knowing precisely what is necessary to place and keep our State in its proper agricultural and commercial relations with the East and the West, the North and the South. Moreover, amongst the people who have known him for over a quarter of a century, his word stands as his bond his character in business relations unquestioned, and his devotion to the interest and welfare of our State, straightforward and of the highest and purest character. It is well-known that in the darkest hours of our late war of the rebellion, when Indiana's patriotism was put to the severest test and trial, our great war Governor, and our now dead Senator Morton, looked to no man in the State with greater reliance and confidence in that struggle for wise and safe counsel more than did he to Ililey McKeen—sound, safe and firm as a rock, stood he then and stands he now. lie has at stake the interest of the publie and the confidence of the mass of the people the entire safety and purity of our free institutions, and the faithful administration of the various governments amongst us. Who of us is there, at this day, notwithstanding our great increase of wealth and population, and our onward march as a nation, yet long for that former method of honest and faithfulness that marked our early statesman in the administration of affairs, in our state and nation. In order to carry weight these times, it is meet and proper that our people demand a man of pure unsullied character a man of experience in the administration of affairs, and whose patriotism and devotion to his state and his country never was, and cannot now be questioned. Such a man is Riley McKeen, and such is he known to be by those who know him best, and have seen him tried. In the administration of business affairs his experience for the last twenty years has brought him intimately before the public. Therefore it may well be said, that parhaps thero is no other man in the state, that combines so many of the requisite qualities, the safe qualities to lead the Republican party of Indiana to victory than does our candidate for Governor of Indiana.
JOSEPH COOK.
We said yesterday that the persons who went to hear Cook were to bo pittied. He hashed up last night a poor article of religion with transcendentalism and a poor article of physiology with a poorer article of evolution.
Life is too short to go into the details of his lecture, but as we said yesterday it is a weak thrust at materialism. lie says "behind all life there is a growth force superior to all chemical powers. Do you believe that matter accounts for all these delicate manipulation of causes and effects?"
Wo would like for the Rev. Joseph Cook to answer these questions. Can a finite mind conceive of anything in the unirerae except matter and fort*. Is not growth force but a property of force which exists with matter
Can a finite mind have any conception of an infinite? Joseph Cook says he can not prove immortality by reason, yet be say«that he thinks he has proven there is another life. Well if he did not prove It by reason what did he prove it by?
Joseph thinks there are papers in this country, fearfully and wonderfully made that may be true, but they arc honest enough to admit they'don't know it all.
We hate a man who thinks he knows it all, and sincerely hope that Joseph Cook will never let the Ught of his benign countenance shine on the people of Terr* Haute again.
A letter to the Courier Journal mjn there are three person* now living near LynnrHk, TenDessee»who arc known to be over one hundred years of age. One is a while man, one a negro man, and the other a negro woman. The white man's exact age is known, he being one hundred and two. The negroes' ages cannot be told exactly, hat ate known to be over onj* hundred.
