Harvey M. SUoghorw and Hulda Tari. EiiwatjlSL John and Catharine Callih&n.

A FEW days ago at the humble grave of Lincoln's mother near Lockport, Indiana, Hon. A. G. Porter, paid the following eloquent tribute to the mother of our martyred president.

The ground upon which we now stand is historic. Here repose the remains of a mother who gave btrth to a son whose name will remain illustrious through all time. Out of what hard conditions greatness may spring! This woman whose ashes repose here was denied, by what seems now to us have been an adverse Providence nearly all of ,what we could call the delights ot life. She never had the benefit of education, or of books, or of travel, or of pecuniary competence. She belonged to the class of wretchedly poor. She lived in the midst of log cabins on the frontier. Not even the cheap picture adorned its walls.

Who would have thought that in such a cabin, under such conditions, hope could have kindled in the breast of any boy, high and divine ambition! Who would have thought that the head of a great nation could ever trace to such a home as this the coal that lit up a flame that fifty years afterward shone with an imperishable glory? Let us reverence institutions that open the avenues of greatness to all alike. What kindled in this boy's bosom the first Sight of pe? Books.

Landers* Ltbelers Sued.

NEW ALBANY, IXD., August 28:—The Landers clique of this city, at the head of which is one Micheal Doherty, who keeps a saloon, has been keeping up a malignant persecution of Mr. Josiah Gwin, editor of the New Albany Ledger-Standard, ever since his refusal to support Landers for Governor. The Ledger-Standard is the leading Democratic paper in the State, has a vary large circulation, and wields a potent influence in the party. Its refusal to support Landers, aha its frequent and mean exposures of the demagogy of the man, is hurting the Democracy badly, and the persecution of Mr. Gwin has in consequence been exceedingly violrnt. While he is a man of pronounced convictions, of great courage arid of untarnished personal character, he has been vilified in the most reckless mariner.

Recently a most scandalous and libelous pamphlet, in which his personal honesty and official integrity are vilely attacked, was secretly published and distributed in this city and Indianapolis by the friends of Landers.

To-day Mr. Gwin commenced suit for libel against Michael Dohertj*, the saloonkeeper above referred to, the publications being traccd to him as principal, and to other parties in this city and Indianapolis, from which city Mr. Gwin to-day returnea having gone, there on business connected with the libelous pamphlet. Mr. Gwin lays bis damaces in the Doherty suit at $10,000.

It is understood that he will also com mence suit against other parties in this city, as well as at Indianapolis, who has been instrumental in the printing and secret distribution of the pamphlet, and it is also understood that ono or t*vo of the candidates on the Democratic State ticket will be included in the suits to be instituted. All these suits will be of a- dual character—for libel, for damages, and for criminal libel under the Grubb's Libel Law.

Paying the National Debt. WASHINGTON, August 33.—The Treas" ury receipts to-day reached the large sum of a million and a half dollars. The re ceipts now constantly average over a mil lion dollars daily. The general opinion here among Government officials is that uuless the debt is to be paid off at a rapid rate Congress will be justified in making large'deductions in taxation. Secretary Sherman favors paying the debt rapidly and thus getting it out of the way and relieving the people from interest burdens lie thinks none of it should become permanent exccpt, perhaps, one thousand millions in long time low interest bonds, which Will be sufficient to* meet the reasonable investment demands of the banks and people. Many think that Congress will make no reduction in taxation, but let the revenues boom at the presant rate pay off the debt and get the disagreeable thing out of the way.

The new census will give reasonably accurate information as to where the bulk of the National-debt is held. A detail of clerks from the Census office is at work in the Treasury looking over the records for this information. United States bonds are held by persons scattered all over the country. Therefore, the duty of compilation by States is not an easy one. So far as the registered four per cent, loan is concerned, it can be located without much difficulty.

Southern Rule.

WASHINGTON.

August 28.—The Gen

eral Robert Toombs' letter printed in these dispatches has been subjected to various forms of mild denial by Democratic newspapers, but no one acquainted with the facts has or will attempt a de nial. The letter was written to a gentleman in this city, and contained a good deal about tocal politics in Georgia, but nothing concerning National politcs except the paragraph riven in these dispatches. In this he boldly declares that if Hanqock is elected the Southern boys intend to do their part towards running the machine. This is no new doclaration in the South. It is the prevailing sentiment, and General Toembs nit the nail squarely on the head in the paragraph quoted. Without the Southern States, Hancock would not get within a hundred and forty Electoral votes of the White House and if elected it will be by the Solid South, and they will rule the roost* The trouble with General Toombs is that in his usual blunt style has stated the facts so honest ly that more discreet Democrats who want to cover up things are alarmed, ______________

Republican Organization* In Indiana* RICHMOND, IND., August 28.—On the 16th of June there were only seven Young Men's Republican Clubs in the State. Since that time a State Club has been organized, Executive Committeemen have been set at work in each Congressional District, nearly seven hundred large clubs have been organized and over seventyfive thousand names have been enrolled. The system extends its ramifications into every city and town of importance in the State, and new organizations are being formed daily. The Executive Committee says that there will be 125,000 young men enlisted in the good cause in a very short time. _____________
