Yes: but we have a few fellows up here who think Blaine is as spotless as an icicle from Diana's temple. But they are like Angels visits, "few ami far between."
IN our dispatches to-day will be found severe charges against a prominent New York divine for whipping his wife and little child. A man who pretends to worship Ood and whips his wife between intervals of prayer ought to be executed without benefit of clergy. A man's first thoughts should be towards making his wife and children happy, and if he has any time to spare after that, let him devote it to prayer, or anything he chooses so that it doesn't interfere with the rights of others.
ONK of the daughters of Brigham Young, who was lately expelled from the Mormon Church for suing some of the rascally brethren who attempted to rob her. when entreated to return to the fold, replied: "Mv father, prophet though you call him, broke many a woman's heart. If it was required of me to break as many hearts ami ruin as many women as my father did, I should go to perdition before I would gr hack into the church. A religion which breaks women's hearts and ruins them is of the devil. That's wha' Mormonism does. Don't talk to me of my f.uher!"
BLAINE WITHDRAWN.
It is rumored that Mr. Blaioc has withdrawn from being a candidate before the Chicago Convrntion. and will go to Chieaeo to defeat GehetrU Grant's nomination if possible* Good byr, Afr. Blaine.
OUB IRISH PEOPLE.
The new political club known as the Terre Haute Irish American Republican club, promises to be one of the strongest organizations in the county.
To many, this club, composed as it is of young Irish-Americans, would seefn to be in direct opposition to the ordinary run of politics for the Democrats have always placed implicit confidence in the Irish people for straight Democratic votes.
It is true that the Irish people who arrive in this country from Ireland, are generally a poor down-trodden class, who have been driven from their homes by the harshness and bitterness of British rule. They, knowing nothing of Republican institutions, at onc£ come to the conclusion that Republicanism means aristocracy, and that Democracy must necessarily be the political home of the laboring man and thrown in with this party of political deception, the majority of them become Democrats. Having been burdened for centuries by an aristocratic rule, they look with fear and trembling upon any party which makes any pretentions toward civilization and progression.
We are, indeed, glad to see that this order of things is changing that the Irish people are beginning to see that the political home of every poor man is in that party that will protect his interest, and shield him from the shackles which the Democratic party has had forged for him for years.
The Terre Haute Irish-American Republican Club promises to be a prime mover in this direction, and before many years we trust.that every Irishman in Vigo County will vote the Republican ticket.
THE 80LDIEE8' FRIENDS.
The Democrats selected Decoration day on which to hold their County Convention, and no doubt the hallowed memories that cluster around the Union soldier's grave will inspire the Democratic leaders with a great amount of enthusiasm and will give them a golden opportu nity to give vent to their expressions of love and affection to the Union soldiers. We wonder if Mr. Voorliees will be present—the friend of the soldier.
CINCINNATI CONVENTION. The readers of the
NEWS
are informed
that it is still the intention of the Democratic party to hold a convention at Cincinnati, Ohio, some time next month. It is not expected that they will nominate the next President, but they will go through the form of nominating, in order to furnish their worn-out politicians some little amusement.
1). M. BENNETT, editor of the "Truth Seeker' has published a book called "The Gods and Religions of Ancient and Modern Times." 1-Ie appends the following note on his title page: "Written in prison, while serving out a sentenet of thirteen months in the Albany enitentiary. nominally for Pending hrough the United States mails a pamphet by K. II. Hey wood on the subject of
Marriage and the Relations af the Sexes,' luit really for being an infidel editor and publisher."'
DILIGENT inquiry has elicited the fact that James O. Putnam, the newly appointed minister to Belgium. iB a member of the firm of G. P, Putnam's, Sons, publishers, New York. The advertisement, of the firm to this extent seems unavoidable, in order to fix the identity of the newly discovered statesman.—fudianapoii* Journal.
We suggest the propriety of charging up the above "ad", for the distinguished statesman, will add on his contingent exact. Fort Wayne Gazette.
Petitions are in circulation at North Vernon, Ind., praying the president to remit the fltie and costs imposed upon Jas. H. Wilkerson, convicted of conspiracy to import voters into the Fourth Congressional district at the October (187b) election, and fined in the United States court and by Judge Gresham sentenced to one year in the states prison south, to the end that he may be released when the time expires.
Wilkerson is a Democrat and in favor of Tilden.
THE
Xaca is swamped with communi
cations from till parts of the state, written by Republicans in bitter opposition to the nomination of General Grant. Some samples are given to-day. It is impossible to find room for many of them. There is no doubt of the sentiment in Indiana. If Grant is nominated there will be a stampede in the Republican partj*.—Iadtamipolu Jfeics.
How much do you pay for each communication:
FIsh-Frceaing.
Fish-freex.ing is the newest fnrtn of the preservation of fresh food. It is already being practiced in India. Fish are frosren up in solid blocks of icf, and Can then be delivered in any part of India, while the surrounding ice can use for the ordinary* purpose of cooling drinks. The fish are suspended IU wire nets in the freezing water, and are found In exlelfent condition after tin* or six days of such Indus are. Thdsame treatment has been tried and found successful with flowers. In this way lish are now being sent from Bombay to Lahore and other parts of India.

POLITICAL.
—The Hartford Caurant advises Blaine to seize the greatest opportunity of his life and turn his strength over to Edmunds. This is cool, to say the least —The Blaine men claim a majority of the National Committee. If this is so, his friends may control the temporary organ ization of the convention, which will be an important point, if they gain it—The meeting of the National Republican Committee, which was called for Thursday, the 27th instant, has been post poned until Monday, the 31st, because several of the members were unable to be present at an earlier date. —The Blaine men will attack the unit rule, and the Sherman men will join them Mr. W. R. Chandler, who is the leader of the Blaine forces, will direct the attack, and he is one of the ablest and shrewdest politicians in the United States. Mr Chandler thinks that under the call the convention will decide that instructions from State Convention do not instruct. —It is believed that the first fight in the convention will be to secure committees on credentials and permanent organiza tion. The hope of Blaine's friends is that by capturing the credentials committee they will be able to divide the Illinois del egation by having a report brought in de daring twenty or twenty-four anti-Grant delegates entitled to seats from Illinois. —Chicago Tribune. Yesterday two gentlemen, representing the business in terests of Chicago, called upon Mr. John C. New at the Palmer House and expresed a desire to secure the Exposition building for Monday or Tuesday evening for an anti-third-term meeting. Mr. New said that the hall could not be had for any such purpose, and that it would not be rented for a Grant, Blaine, Washburne, Sherman, or any other man's meeting. —St. Louis Globe-Democrat: Mr. Blaine's managers are making much ado about the proposed abolition of the unit rule, but even here if they were to sue ceed they would gain nothing. The unit rule is now a matter of the utmost indif ference to the Grant men. since they have more votes than they need as it is, and would gain more than they would lose if it were abolished. Talk is cheap, but it takes 379 votes to nominate a president, and Mr. Blaine is just 194 votes short of the necessary number. General Grant has 879, with some forty to spare. —The following is the call for the Chicago Convention: "A National Con vention of the Republican party will meet at Chicago, Wednesday, the 2d day of June next, for the nomination of candi dates to be supported for President and Vice-President at the next election. Republicans and all who will co-operate with thorn in supporting the nominees of the party, are invited to choose two delegates from each Congressional district four at large from each State, two from each Territory, and two from the District of Columbia to represent them in the con vention. J. D. Cameron, 'chairman Thomas B. Kcogh, secretary." The phraseology is of interest, as it may have weight in deciding whether the unit rule shall be maintained-or not.
GEN. GEO. A. SHERIDAN, of Louisiana, was speaking 011 Monday night •qjhen a Democrat interrupted him with this question: "What is the matter wid the Dimocratic party anyway?'' Quick as lightning Sheridan turned from the line 01 argument he was pursuing and gave an answer to his interrupter which all who heard it will rememoer as .long as they live. It was as follows: "What is the matter with the Democratic party?'' I will tell you, my friend. The Democratic party was born under planets that were in opposition. It lives in the objective case. Like a mule, "it has no pride of ancestry 110 hope of posterity T' It never originates anything. It shines by borrowed light. It has never been joined in honest wedlock to a principle, but lived for years in open adultery with a harlot called Slavery lived with her till she died of corruption and was buried amid tli6 sobs and groans of her paramour. The atmosphere that surrounds Democracy is still full of noxious vapors that breed moral pestilence and death. The sun never shines through it vice seeks its shadow and corruption grows lusty under its unholy influence. Springs of purity are never found in Democracy. Its waters are torpid, lifeless—covered with filth and scum, with which the stagnant pools and moveless waters always offend the eyes of men. The soil which Democracy has cultivated has failed to yield harvests of value to the nation, but has given crops of worthless weeds and briars. Democracy has no love of country believes in States instead of a nation drives loyalty from its doors and welcomes treason to its habitations holds the deeds of our soldiers and sailors as naught strives to blacken the names of our heroes weeps over the lost cause hates the blue and loves the gray stabs loyalty in the back binds up the" wounds of treason and speaks words of hope and comfort to its devotees: applauds when helpless blacks are stricken down in the South, and caresses the hands red with their innocent blood: denies the light of American citizens to make homes for themselves in the South: justifies the men who shoot them down or drive them ont. Democracy is a curse to the land the source of our bitterest woes: the haven where vice finds friends and crime its apologists and defenders. Democracy is original sin let loose to rend and destroy: it is the spirit of evil, filling the swine of the nation: the incarnation of uhholiness the" child of the
devil,
its home should be in
that outer darkness Where there is weeping and wailing and gnashing of teeth. Such, faintly pictured, my friend, is what is the matter with the Democratic party."
If that isn't an answer we would like to know what is.

Social Intercourse.
Without friends, what is a man? A solitary oak upon a sterile rock, symmeN rical indeed in its form, beautiful and exquisitely finished, outrivaling the most lauded perfection of art in gracefulness and grandeur, but over which decay has shaken her black wing and left its leave* blighted its limbs contract as they die its roots rottenness, and its bloom death a scathed, lifeless monument of its pristine beauty. When the rebuffs of adversity are crushing us earthward—when the clouds look plack above, and the muttering thunder of misfortune growls along the sky—when our frame is pained Dy the skeleton hand of disease, or our senses whirled in the mselstroom chaos of insanity—when our hearts are torn by the recent separation of some belovea object, while our tears are yet flowing upon the fresh turf of departed innocence-^-in that time it is the office of friendship to shield us from portentous storms, to quicken the minting pulses of our sickly frame, to bring back the wandering star of mind within the attraction of sympathetic kindness, the "oil and palm" of peace into the yet festering wound, ana deliver the aching heart from the object of its bleeding affection.
