Mr. Porter is widely known throughout the State, and h|s moral and business character, is a shining star in the firmament of his private and public life, He is a scholar, orator, statesman, jurist, and a leader among men.

His only vice, is what the Democracy would call his Republicanism. He is a native born an Indianian. He knows the wants of our people, is capable of, and will administer them should he be elected in November next, imparti ally and justly. He knows the people. is of them, and loves them. He is a Christian and a God fearing man therefore reliable and trusty. There is no comparison between Porter and Landers. Porter is the superior in everything, and will receive the support of all good citizens irrespective of party
TIIE Republican ticket nominated yesterday, is justly said to be the best ticket that has been placed in the field by any party for years.
The next Governor of Indiana, Albert G. Porter, was born in Kentucky, oppo site Lawrenceburgh, Indiana, in the year 1826, He was educated at Hannover Collego, but finished his course at Asbury. He is a iawyer and has been very successful in his profession.
He was elected reporter of the Supreme Conrt in 1852, which position he held six years. He was elected to Congress in 1858, and re-elected in 1860. In 1877 President Hayes appointed him first comptroller of the treasury, which position he has admirably filled. He is a gentleman of unsullied character, courteous in manner, kind and affectionate, and is a prominent member of the Methodist church. Ho will at once resign and begin his canvass of the state. Wc will doubtless get to hear him in a short time.
Tne nominee for Lieutenant-Governor, Thomas Ilanna, of Greencastle, a young man only about thirty-six years old, born and raised on a farm near Greencastle. He was a private during the late war, and after being discharged ho went through Asbury University. He is a lawyer, and in 1876 and 1877 was chairman of the county central committee.
He is a gentleman well known for his sterling qualities and genial disposition, and will run far ahead of his ticket.
WOMAN SUFFRAGES.
We are sorry, that a greater number of persons were not present at the Woman'i Suflfrago Convention last night, and to day, to listen to the addresses of the for most lady thinkers of the United States
Miss Susan B. Anthony, and Mrs. Eliza beth Saxon, and there sister co workers surely deserve great credit for their un tiring zeal in the cause of universal liberty We noticed several of our oldest and most prominent citizens tin the audieu last night, who seemed to be taking great in terest in the addresses, but we would like to see many more there to-night. The dawn of civilization is spreading rapidly, snd in few years our mothers, wives, and sisters, will be permitted to en joy the same privilege that we enjoy.
What difference can there be, betwten the the rights of man, and the rights of woman. We are in favor of universal equality, with equal rights before the law equal protection under the law without any regard to sex, race, creed or previous condition of servitude.
It is pitiful to see a bald head man hunting for the parting on his head while ho sings, "There no place like comb." •IfatSkejf#.

The Republicans of Indiana^ conven tion assembled reaffirm the truth of the declaration mad e, and folly indorse the resolution adopted by the National Con vention assembled at Chicago, on the 2d of June 1880.
In the nominee of the Chicago Oon2 vention we recognize a representative man of the Republican party and a states man who may well be intrusted prith the administration of our National Govern ent, and we heartily commend him to the support of the people. jRctoUed, That as an unflexible principle of personal liberty we maintain the right of locomotion, including the right of foreigners to emigrate hither and be come American citizens, and* the right of native born citizens to imigrate from one State to another without vexatious investigations as to their motive for so doing.
Rosolttd, That we favor such state legislation as will protect the people from imposition by the procurement of promissory notes payable in bank, without, however, impairing the validity of com mercial credits.
Resolved, That we congratulate the people of Indiana upon the adoption of the Constitutional amendments recently submitted, under which by wise legislation, the purity of the ballot box may be secured, economy in the government at tained, the speedy administration of justice provided for, and extravagant munic ipal taxation prevented, and we point to the open hostility of the leaders of the Democratic party to these salutary pro visions as evidence of insincerity of their professions, their unfaithfulness to the public welfare, and their unfitness to administer the state (government, recognizing at the same time the patriotism and independence of the large mass of the Democratic party, who gave those amendments their support.
Jiesolted, That we reaffirm our devotion to the system of free common, unsectarian schools, as the source of popular intelligence, and indispensable to tin
of free government. Resolved,
le perpetuity
That the gratitude of the
country to the brave men who periled their lives for the preservation of the Union, is a perpetual debt which must never be forgotten, and the duty of Con ress to embody this sentiment in the 'orm of laws for their substantial benefit is imperative.
Resolved, That we favor all proper measures tending devour the great agricultural and mineral resources of our State, and especially such wise and whole some laws as will insure the comfort and safety of those engaged in the dangerous work of mining and recognizing existing defects in our laws, we favor such furtheV legislation as will securc to all laborers a a speedy and effectual enforcement of their rights as against all corporations and individuals.
The Clandestine Trade in Dynamite in Switzerland. Three years ago there existed a clandestine dynamite factory at Satigny, close to the French frontier. The business was carried on in some large, old-fashioned, strongly built farm buildings, and the dynamite was smuggled into France. There being an excise duty in that coun try of 2f. 5c. per kilogramme on all the dynamite produced, the trade, as long as it lasted, was an extremely profitable one, and as the people in the neighborhood were all allowed to participate in the benefit derived from it the secret was well kept. Even the officers of the Commune said nothing. One day, however, a fright ful explosion occurred hardly one stone of the farm buildings was left standing on another three men, one hundred cows, many sheep and several horses were killed, and the proprietor of the establish ment disappeared. At this juncture the
requested the help of Colonel ictei, who is both an engineer and an acknowledged authority on all matters re lating to dynamite. He recommended great caution in approaching the scene of the disaster, as it was by no means certain that all the dynamite had exploded. Some of it might be buried be neath the debris. At his suggestion the Government undertook the work of searching the ruins, intrusting to him the dangerous duty of superintendence. In fact five large cases of dynamite were found intact and carefully removed Then arose a question as to how they were to be disposed of, and on the advice of Colonel Pictet, they were carried into the open fields and blown up, advantage being taken of the opportunity to try several interesting experiments. For instance, one case was surrounded by huge fire, and, though it did not explode, was rjuite consumed. Among the ab scon ding proprietor's papers was found a document from which it appeared that some time previously he had sent ten casks, each containing 1000 kilogrammes of dynamite, to the Geneva railway station as artificial manure. The risk of storing such an enormous quanity of so dangerous a material in the midst of large population was frightful and Colel Pictet went immediately to see whetheritwas stillhere. It had been sent to Morges, in CantonVaud. Morges was at once surprised by telegraph of the na ture of the consignment. It had been Pontarlier, after remaining six weeks in the station at Morges. and a telegram was sent to Pontarlier. Pontarlier re lied that the ten casks had gone on to errieres. Verriereswas forwith commu-. nicated with. The dymanite was then in the hands of the Custom House officers, who, even before the arrival of the despatch from Geneva had becun to suspect the presence of something other than artificial manure! It was of course, immediately confiscated, and, the circumstances being so entirely unprecedented, instructions were asked from headquarters. The Government sent experts down from Paris to look into the matter and t» decide how the dymanite should be dealt with. Instead of adopting the course followed by Colonel Pictet and destroying it, they ordered it be taken to Lormont, a small fort in the Jure and placed in the magazine there. A short time afterwards the fort of Lormont was blown into the air, and none of twelve men who constituted its garison has ever been seen since.**—Genem ?orrt*p?*dente Mvndan Temet.
Styx, in the Greek mythology, was a river of Hades which flowed nine times around the lower world. Lost souls passed over this river to emerge in the kingdom of darkness, and the nymph of the Styx, by whom the most aoiomn oaths of the god's were sworn, weltat the gate of Hades. Hie highest waterfall in Greece, Whose waters are still believed to be poisonous, was called the Styx, and the ancienta associated this fall witn the myaterions river whkli encircled the kw«r :*TOfltL- *vr-,r
