Great Anxtcty.

We understand that the great "bribe taker," and chairman of the committee on fire, has in waiting a yery costly horsewhip for the Editor of the DAILY NEWS, and that he takes pleasure in exhibiting it oil private occasions to his friends.

A Whittling Lover.

A well known youth of this city, whose devotion to the ladies is well known to those with whom he associates, has set his affections upon a young lady who has recently removed to the city, and how he manages to see her, when he knows her father is about, is quite amus ing. He manages it in this wise: he walks up the street, whistling a familiar tune, until a position is reached, directly under her window, wheie he will stand until she makes her appearance at the upper window, and in this way they converse with one another nearly, if not quite, as comfortably as if he were in the par

SOOTHING SYRrr FOR THE LATTER. TOLEDO, O., Jul)* 2.—A gentleman in this city to-day received a letter from a friend in Yicksburg who was a resident of New Orleans at the time General Hancock was in command of the cit)-. He incloses a copy of a note sent by General Beauregard to General Hancock in reply to an invitation from the latter to dinner. The note ran thus: "General H.—Please don't humble me by those flags. I'll come and see you, but first remove them." The flags were accordingly ordered down, and Beauregard dined with General Hancock, who was thus guilty of an open insult to the flag to soothe the irritated nerves of an unrepentant rebel.

Senator McDonald at Vlncennes. YINCENNES, IND., July 2.—Senator Jos. E. McDonald arrived in town this morning and took rooms at the Laplante House. He came unannounced, but was soon receiving prominent members of his party with whom he is a great favorite. Whether or not the Senator's visit to this city has any political significance, outsiders cannot determine. It is thought by Republicans that the three Supreme judges have placed Indiana Democrats in in a bad fix for an aggressive campaign, and that the Senator is trying to arrange some plan whereby the party can throw off the burden.

CrnjiM Endangered.

COLUMBUS, IND., July 2.—The incessant rains of the past two weeks have greatly endangered the wheat crop which has been standing in the shocks, but could not be threshed, and a few more days like the past will cause it to sprout. On the other hand, the corn which had to ndglected is overrun with weeds so thick that it will be the greatest difficulty to clear them, and the wet weather prevents plowing. Our farmers are considerably discouraged, as the wheat crop, which promised to exceed last year's, will probably be injured.

Democratic Campaign Fund. WASHINGTON, July 2.—The Democratic employes at the Capitol look for a heavy assessment this summer, as they are the only Democratic Federal office-Jiolders, and the party must have money. Last eummer they contributed liberally, and the money was all seut to Ohio, "where it would do the most good," but didn't. This time it will mainly go to Indiana and the close Eastern States. It is not on the programme to fool away much in Ohio this year.

A Destitute Mother slays Her Children. NEW YORK, July 2.—Marv O'Connor, aged forty-five, of 46 Waller avenue, Jersey City, killed her three children during lafct night. Mrs. O'Connor has been sick for along time, suffering from malaria, and has been unable to take care of her children, and she thought that by killing them they would go to heaven.

Thrashing Machine Accident. CLOVERDALE, IND., July 2.—A young man nnmed John Morris met with a narrow escape from a horrible accident near here yesterday. He put his finger in the Opening which lets the wheat out of a threshing machine while it was in motion, end had not the belt been accidentally thrown off would have had his arm torn from his body. As it was, he only suffers the loss of« tinner.

Storm In Sullivan Connty. SULLIVAN, IND., July 2.—A fearful rain storm, accompanied with much lightning, prevailed throughout this county last night. Along the Wabash river the damage was worse than anywhere else, perhaps, and many thousands of dollars' worth of the new growing wheat crop is utterly ruined. It was, indeed, a fateful night for the farmers along the banks of that classic stream.

What Weaver Expect*.

PITTSBURG, July 2.—General Weaver, Greenback candidate for President, passed through the city to-day on his way to Washington. To your correspondent he said substantially: "I expect to be President I expect the Greenbackers will carry Maine, Texas, Missouri and Michigan. This will throw the election into the House, and by a combination of Greenbackers, Democrats and Independents I will be chosen President, just as they combined un Curtin against Yocum, in the Twenty-sixth Pennsylvania District."

Coolness Between Patriots. WASHINGTON, July 2.—A gentlemen who has arrived here from the White Sulphur Springs says that Senators Canit eron aud Blame, who arc there, have nothing whatever to do with each othe^l The evident bad feeling between the two Republican leaders is the subject of much gossip and comment at the Spriiyjs. It is reported that on one occasiou Mr. Blaino directly snubbed the Pennsylvania Senator.

ja*on Brown and nostctler at Bedford. BEDFORD, IND., July 2.—Last night the Democracy ratified, with a brass band, firing of anvils, and a display of fireworks. The crowd—men, women and children,. four or five hundred—about half Republicans. Hon. Jason B. Brown and Hon. A. J. Hostetler did the speaking. The former spoke about twenty minutes, the most of which was consumed in eulogising Gen. Grant. The latter got through in ten minutes. There was a lack oi enthusiasm.

Columbus.

COLUMBUS, O., July 2.—R. W. Thompv son, Secretary of the United States Navy, came hero this morning on his way from Washington to Terre Haute. He is trav eling in the Directors'coach of the Pittsburg, Fort Wayne & Chicago Railroad. The mariner of the Wabash spent the day here so quietly thai not a dozen knew of his presence. He is the guest of his sis-ters-in-law, the Misses Gardner, on Oak street. The Secretary was himself a resident of Columbus many years ago, and" emigrated from here to Terre Haute. Ho leaves for that place in the morning.

Commissioner^

Raum the last vestige of patronage that- ?.,: has been

custom

heretofore

the prerog-t

ative of the head of the internal revenue service. Wednesday the discharge o® the stamp roll, followed by the

re-engage

ment of part of them by the Secretary,s caused some comment, as the roll hftd al-£g ways been made up by the

Commissioner.:"

The order to-day stipulates that hereafter the appointment of gaugers and store^V, keepers, shall be made by the Secretary* upon application accompanied by the usual testimonials, and that the Commis-'^' sioner will report to the Secretary in re. gard to the removal of an incumbent. forwarding all papers concerning the case. The law defines that the Secre* tary shall make all appointments of gaugers and storekeepers, but the correspondence in relation to this grade of officers. has always been in the hands of the commissioner. The latter has examined ap-? plications or causes for removal and sim ply recommended to the Secretary what was to be done for the good of the service in his department now the Commissioner is to have nothing at all to spy in regard to the appointments or dismissals,^ but the matter goes directly to the Secretary without any advisory intervention by the Commissioner. This revolution in the matters of the department that interest so many people in the government employ naturally made a sensation, and it was said that this was another move looking to the retirement of Commissioner Raum, who was to be irritated at these innovations to the point of resigning.

The Board of Trade will recognize tho. Fourth by standing adjourned until Tues-'( day. ,U

The internal revenue collections in thisdistrict, for the year, foot up $877,601.64, an increase of $272,620 over 1878-79.

A Ratlcation Fizzle.

SALEM, IND., July 2.—The long-herald**' ed Democratic ratification meeting camo* off last night. It was without head or tail in management, no one seeming to care enough for the tickets to take any,' special interest in ratifying them. After1',* much delay, Colonel Horace Heffrcn "riz^ up" to tell how he felt, but it was evident from his speech that he felt a good deal like Lazarus when he was licked by the dogs, Hancock and English not beinc a% very sweet morsel under his tongue. Thes^ crowd was uneasy, for Providence was .' thundering and lightning at it at a rat-^' tling rate, and they seemed anxious to got home, which many of them did before. Colonel Heffrcn got through with his. speech.

Suicide at CrawfonHvlllc. SJP CRAWPORDSVILLE, July 2.—Howard* Herron made a success of his second at--"#

and made his appearance on the streetsyesterday evening, seemingly satisfied^ with the world and glad to know he was living, but, being addicted to drink, and the habit having such a firm hold on him, he could not resist the desire to take a drink of liquor last night, and, becomingL under its influence, determined on mak-^ ing the second attempt at suicide. When!? found at two o'clock this morning he wasT^ still living, but died at seven. On his V, person was found two bottles, one full of laudanum, the other empty, which had contained the same drug.
