Dvinoi rntlr MMtlny. Tlio Domocratlo citizens of Pike Township will meet In Convention on Satur* day, March 18, 1869, at Center School House, for the purpose of nominating candidates to be voted for at the eneatng April election. The Hon. Jamet B. Ryan and others will be present and address the Convention. By order of Thomas E. Watts, ilAtvtd Chairman. Tnenesy, Ike Twenty-Tblr*. FVory voter opposed to the Constitutional Suffrage Amendment living In the counties in which special elections are to he held to nil legislative vacancies, occasioned by the resignation of the Democratic members to defeat the negro suffrage proposition, must not forget that the election takes place on Toesdat, the 23d of Mabcft. Every Democratic voter should be at the poll* to Indorse the ec1 tlon of the Democratic members, and In every county, whether the Radicals make an open contest or not, a full vote against the arndUdmont shbnld be given. Care should be taken that there is no informality In the elections, so as to give the Radical majority in thn Legislature opportunity to refuse the certificates or credential* ol any of the returned members. In the counties vkiore elections are not held ' some mode should be devised to give an expression of public sentiment upon the negro voting proposition for the benefit of the sitting members. Remember that the special elections come off on Tuesday, March 23d. Let every Democratic and conservative Republican voter be at the polls on that^ay.^ Chalk Monopoly. M r. Deumah's report on the tariff reveals the fact that the present duty on chalk Is equal to B47 per cent, advaiorem, a duly which is of course virtually prohibitory. According to the census of 13«0, there were but four chalk "manufacturers,^ meauing, ws presume, "proprietors of chalk deposits," In the United htates, and these four dwelt in Massachusetts. For every ton of chalk consumed in this country, and the consumption Is probably enormous, the people pay to those chalk nabobs eight prices and a half. Chalk is used In pharmacy, in housekeeping, in the arts, and as a valued fertilizer In agriculture. The average cost of chalk abroad is 81 is, specie, per ton, and the duty is 810, specie, per ton, or847 percent, on the value. This Is the kind of class legislation that has characterized the party in power. The entire population of the country, for chalk enters Into general consumption, has to pay this enormous tribute to the owners of four chalk deposits in Massachusetts, And this Is the system that it sustained under the false pica that It is for the bt i.< tit and protection of American Industry. Never was there a greater fallacy or more unblushing falsehood. 11 lint llie People Think. Wo arc in receipt of letters from every portion of the State, Indorsing most heartily, nay, enthusiastically, the action oftho Democratic members of the Legislature. in n signing tbeir seats to defeat the rascally swindle attempted by Congress and our Legislature. We give a sample of a large number now before ns, received through one mall! A correspondent writing from Logans-

port says:

"The matter of resignations takes splendidly with the people here. Democrats enthusiastic, and many Republicans

highly pleased.^ *

Another correspondent writes;

"The Democracy are all alive on the all absorbing question, ami are up and coming, as well as a great many Republicans, who are goina to vote with us on

this question."

Ju a letter trom a gentlenfan, writing from Covington, wo find the following: “The resignation of the Democrat!*! members of the Legislature Is the crowning ad of a pure and undelllcd Democracy—<i maiitfestatlon ol white men’s manhood in the inulntenancc of a white iiihii's government.

The Radicals and tbe Roldlers. The Journal has hacked down from Us statement that the Democrats In tbe Leg islature of 1868 were opposed to soldiers voting, for the simple teason that tbe charge had not even the shadow of troth to rest npon. The Constitution of Indiana, Article 2, Section 2, says that any person qualified as a voter "shall be entitled to vote in the township or precinct where he msy reside." This provision of the^ organic law of tbs State, and a very proper one to aid in preventing frauds at elections, prohibited Indiana soldiers in the field from voting. The proposition to take their votes under such cireum* stances was an absurdity. Oqyernor Morton so stated it when be was written to npon the subject after the proposition had been submitted to tbe Legislature to make arrangements to take the votes of the soldiers In service ontslde of the State. This view of tbe ease to confirmed by the following quotation from tbe Gov ernor’s message of January 6, 1868,

The i’ablne*. General Grant has finally succeeded In arranging his official household. At tbe present writing the Cabinet stands as follows: Heoretary of State, HAMILTON FlSH, of New York. Secretary of Treasury, Georoe 8. BoUTWELL, ot MaesHcliusetH. Secretary of War, General John A. Rawlins. Secretary of Navy, Adolimi E. Borje, of I'entiKylvaula. Secretary of futcrior, General J. D. Coy, of Ohio. Dost master General, John A, J. Cresowkll, of Maryland. Attorney General, E. B. Hoar, of Massachusetts, With one exception, General Cox, of Ohio, the meifibers of the Cabinet are from the Eastern and New England Htates. The Speaker of the House, who has the appointment of the Commltteea, is also from Now England. Thus far the administration of the new President has been shaped to suit the Interests of tbs Atlantio'slope and especially New England. Although we had no confidence In the ability of Mr. Alexander T. Stewart, beyo- d Ida mothodlorl and Oner* gotlo business habits, for the Treasury Department, his liberal views npon tbe revenue policy made him far more acceptable than the representative of New England Interests who has been finally selected for the place. Thn great wealth of Mr. Stewart was a guarantee to the country that ho would administer tbe office with strict fidelity and Integrity, As Mr Stewart does not need any more wealth but his own, Treasury peoulstion and speculation would have come to an end under his sdmlnistratlon, and only the Interests of the country would have been regarded. As Mr. Boutwbll is not a very wealthy man, according to Republican judgment, be will not be lifted above the temptations that have overcome some of bis predecessors and we msy therefore expect that the Treasury Rill be manipulated so as to promote private interests aa well as those of the public. Tbe new Secretary of State to a gentlemtn of ability and aecompltohmente, but he to a New Yorkef, and to In entire sympathy with the moneyed Interests of Wall Street, New York.

Journal refers. It to as fol

Injustice, than the exclusion from the right of suffrage of thoee gallant men who are absent from home, because they are fighting th« battles of their country,

arnestly

I earnestly hope that Immediate steps will be taken to relieve our Constitution

of this injustice." #

The Journal comments by falsely and basely charging that "the Democrats resisted and defeated every effort to remove or alleviate It." This is a huge falsehood

for a professed follower

Christ to perpetrate. No effort has been made by tbe party in power "to relieve our Constitution of this Injustice.” Tbe Radicals have had complete control of tbe Htate Government alnce the suggestion was made by Governor Morton, and why have they not "relieved our Constitution of this great InjusticeT" There has not been a session of the Legislature since that recommendation ap peured, but such a proposition could have been passed. This tbe Radicals un derstand full well, and for that reason we inquire why has It not been donef A legislative sesrifon has Just expired with large wolking Radical majorities In both bodies, yet not a squeak was beard from a Radical member about relieving

"our constitution of this Injustice."

It not fair to conclude that the Radical members, from this failure to take any stops toward amending the constitution in that regard, that they did

not consider the constitution

unjust In that particular and that any movement toward amending It, after the emergency had passed away would have made the bumbuggery of the proposition too transparentT If Governor Morton was acting In good faith, and if he really Intended that bia recommen dation should be carried out, why were

he and his political friends

very reticent upon the subject afterwards! His proposition dropped still born. Not a whimper baa been heard since about the great "political injustice," although the Governor earnestly hoped that "Immediate steps' would be taken la the matter. It has slept right there evef since it came from the lips of Governor Morton, and there it Is likely to sleep so far as Radical Legislatures are concerned, until that party Is swept from power. cWe challenge the new comer of the Journal to bring forward any evidence to show that the Democracy, aa that paper charges, " have resisted and defeated every effort to remove or alleviate the constitutional provision In regard to the suffrage of soldiers absent from tbe Htate, In the service of the country.” There Is not a semblance of truth to base this malicious slander, for no effort has ever been made by the Radicals " to relleva our Conatitutlon of this injustice." The Radicals have no regard for the soldiers, for tho reason that they are, generally, working men, poor men, the class that the Journal stigmatizes as "Ignorant, filthy, rascally white men, or uncolored beasts, rather," while It alludes to the degraded, Ignorant and beastly negroes of the South as "a small current of decent voters" that It wlsfces to Invsst with suffrage. Much is the Radical love for the soldier. Are not their professions of re-

gard the merest hypocrisy and cant?

The Rothschilds are said to be dlssstisflod with the management of their Paris house since the death of old Baron James, His two sons are men of little ability, and they are said to have made several ruinous speculations. Nearly all of the old employes of the firm have been discharged since Baron James' death. Horns strange discoveries have t>een made In regard to the charities of the old Baron. He frequently subscribed for benevolent purposes large sums, with the understanding that he should be called upon to pay only a part of the same. He often complained of tbe exorbitant sums hs had to pay for clerk hire. He took but two or three daily papers, and the ■nan who read tbe news of the day to him errry morning had to subscribe for as many, and bring them along to Rothschild’s house. He never wore watches, rings or any other kind of Jewelery. At the dinner-table he drank cheap wine, and often scolded his children for driokIng champagne and other ezneuaive wines.

Alexandre

Damns’ Definition of the Word.

There Is a certain section of society which now-a-davs obtains more public attention than is cither neccasHry or wholesome; but If It bo talked about at all, It Is well that It should lxcorreotly designated. English writers almost invariably uho the new-fiogled French, or rather Parisian word, ”Le Demi-Monde," in a cornprobenMivo aen*e, which quite destroys its meauing. In tho prefnee to I ho latest collected edition of M. Alexandra* Dumas the younger’* plays, tbs author gives on authoritative interpretation of the name he himself Invented which those who uae these Parisian "neologisms” would do well to observe. He complains that (his neologism, which be was proud to Introduce Into the French language, so hospitable In the nineteenth century, serves to desIin its by the error or carelessness of tii<>se who employ It, tho very class of women from whom he had Intended to distinguish the demi-monde, or at least to confuse together two categories very distinct, and even bittorly opposed to one another. ‘ ‘ . Let us then laydown as a rule for future dictionaries that the deml-iii'inde docs not represent, as la supposed and printed, the mob of courtesans, but that, class of women who represent no class. Tbe demi-monde is not anybody's nr everybody’s domain. Admission to it is only gained by certain passports. Ills composed of women, all of honorable descent, who, aa young girls,'Rs wives, or as mothers, have been with perfect right received and cherished In the best fashions, and wboThavedeserted. Tbe names they boar are simultaneously Ixirno In the true work) which has excluded them, by men, women and children for whom you and 1 profos* the most deserved estreat, and to whom by a tacit agreement one never speaks of their wives, their daughters, or tbeir mothers. Nevertheless as one must not be too severe, especially when one wishes to enjoy life, that world receives, also, young girls who have made tbeir debut in Mis by a fault; women who live matrimonially with a msu whose name they bear; pretty and elegant foreign laities, recommended and warranted by some one of their Intimate acquaintance*, under his personal responsibility—In short, all those women who have their roots In'regular society, and whose fail h is love for its excuse, but love only; nmltui teil jiau/itr. H begins where the legal spouse ends, and ends wljere the venal spouse begins, It is separated from virtuous women by public scandal, from courtesans by money. On the one hand it is hounded by a clause. In the code, on the other by a roll of bank- notes. It cleaves to this last argument; "We give, but we do not sell;" and it expels for "selling,’’ as tho word above it does not "giving.’ In that word the man remains lorever the debtor to the woman, and tbe latter may believe b*rse)f respectable when she sees her debtor treat her in the street as If she were still his equal. * * • ♦ And .yet, after all, it can not he denied that tiicse different worlds have been so often mingled In the latest oscillations of the social planet that their contract has occasioned some pernicious inoculation*. At the rate tlio earth is going around, I am terribly afraid tbe confusion wilt become worse confounded; that my definition wtlt anoear to our nephews a more arohaaolOflOa! detail, and, in tho geuer.il iopsy-iui .y, they will honestly mistake oho hemisphere and ono pule for anoth-

Enormous Fronts on Flnwo Fortes. "Foreman" writes to tho New York Hun as follows: Hiri Thera are thousands of people in New York and suburbs, that would like pianos and would have them but for the onormous price asked ftir them. Now I have been foreman in one of our first class piano manufactories for fifteen years, and J know the coat of every piano made. Instruments sold for $660 cost but $210, and those sold for $1,000, which are handsomely carved grades, tost but 8478. You see what enormous profits are made on them. Pianos range from $600 to $2,006, and some styles with an extra moulding, which cost but $5> they ask I60 more for. They argue that It looks $100 better. Suppose It docs, that Is no reason why they should ask $00 more for the instrument. If manufacturers would be satisfied with lees profit, persons now without an instrument would be able to purchase one. There are a number of young ladies in this city who are good performers on tbe piano-forte, and would like to purchase an Instrument, to give Instructions on, but are unable to do so, on account of tbe bigh price of them. There are dealers in New York that buy pianos of companies and large manufacturers for from 8226 to $246, and sell for $860 and $700. If they pay tbe manufacturer $10 for an extra moulding, they put $60 on the price of tbe pianos. If you should see fit to publish thla letter, and piano manufacturers or dealers should deny the abo‘ve.1 will send down the price ot everythiug in the piano, Including the oaee, r to prove that wbut I say to true. J think that It to a burning shame that thousands are compelled to do without a piano-forte on acc< 1 it of the enormous price asked for tr ii, when maunfaeUirera and dealers couid afford to sell them for $MM and $160 less on the low prised ones, and $M0 and $400 on the highest MMOy and make money

mirers around her kiosk. She is’ tolerably rood looking, but her attractions are not her face, they are the reputation she enjoys. Every idle follow of good estate is eager to make her his mistress, not becanse she is pretty or he is fascinated by her, but because his vanity is raised to be Successful where everybody has failed. It is asserted (I believe it) she has been offered a princely mansion and a hundred thousand dollars by more than one admirer. She refused to accept them unless accompanied by a plain gold ring. Her virtue has maddened some idlers; there 1s no folly, except marriage, they are not ready to perpetrate in order to possess her. It is almost as profitable to play waiter to the Parisian Tantalus as to gratify him. There is Isabelle, the flower girl of the Jockey Club, who has amassed one hundred thousand dollars and some twenty thousand dollars of jewels solely by living among dissolute people and refecting all their offt-rs. It is a disreputable reflection upon the low standard of Morals here that women of gallantry rarely meet miserable ends. Hogarth s pictares of wrotcheclness of their letter days

do not m|rror such lifo here.

A few days since oneof our newspapers mentioned meeting Rose Pompon, who twenty years ago was the most admired frequenter of Mahille, dragging a barrow filled with glass, and evidently steeped in misery to the lips. The paragraph bronght a letter from Rose Pompon, who declared that so far from having fallen so low, she was living in her own house at Asniese*, and owned two other houses in thai, village. The wealth of these women often reaches an incredible amount. Queen Isalieila, of Spain, after leasing two mansions in tho Avenue des Chanqw Elyseea, and spending forty thousand dollars on them, paid twelve thousand dollars to be quit of her contract. She had seen Primre Hasltewskl's palace (it is really a sumptnons palace) near the 1 riuniphsl Arch, and had taken a fancy to it. The Prince wished to sell, and asked three hundred and sixty thousand dollars for the palace. She purctpi«cd it. A few days since it wu rumored she was tired of and wished to sell it. A lorette offered to buy It and cash tho purchase

Aliont two o'clock yesterday there was quit* a breeze ot excitement on Royal Exchange, opposite the Gem coffee-house, occasioned by the application of » cane li. tha hand* of Mr. Oscar Dupeire npon the person of W. L. McMillan, Representative in the 8tite Legislature from the parish of Caddo, and late a Brigadier General In tho Unitod Htate* army. It appears that during some exciting debate In the House of Representatives Thrtrsrlay evening, Jnst previous to the adjournment of that body, Mr. Pratt, of Claiborne, made a speech, and, npon resuming bis seat, was approached by Mr. Du;>eire, who thoronghly indorsed tho sentiments he had uttered and congratulated him upon his effort. The remarks of Mr. Dtii*elre were overheard by General McMillan, who, taking exception thereto, mdely pushed the tqieaker toward tho door, where be was arrested by the police snd ejected from the building. General McMillan wa* warned at thetlme that he, would be caned for hi* gross violation of courtesy and unwarrantable assumption of authority. Mr. Dupeire having been educated In a school which dictates that insults shall Ixi resented, quietly await**! an opportunity, and meeting General McMillan upon the*street, advanced, and having addressed him, proceed**! to apply In a vigorous manlier s cane. A seufUe ensued, in which McMillan xuereedet! in wresting the cane from Ids adveraary. At this tutu-lure friends succeeded In separating the parties. General McMillan then desired to know who the party was who had attacked him, and was told that lie was the gentleman wisun he had so summarily ejected from the House of Represeniat iv*-*. Thus the matter rests. It should lx* stated that the cane used in the difficulty belonged to a third party, to whoiii it was subsequently surrendered, miHTRlOSIC MNL.UO.-VI'R.

Arrars* Memories.

Fibber tells us bow he came into sorno distinction by performing s long part slter brief preparstlon with Barton Booth: and Kean. In Barney Cornwall's biography, appears in a Aimilar anecdote. The ’ instances of the name kind happening in this country stone are very numerous. A year or two since, it U said, Mr. J. W.

In 18‘i2 ho whs elected it Keprescniulive from Massachusetts to the Thirtyeighth Congress, serving on the Committee* on i.he Judiciary, Reconstynction, op a Bureau of Education and Free (Schools in tho District of Columbia; was a delegate to the Philadelphia Loyalists' Convention of 18!A and re-elect«“d to the Fortieth Congress and to the Forty-first Con-

gress.

In 1867 he issued a volume of "Speeches snd Papers.” He was one of the Managers of the impeachmenttrlalofex-Prea-ident Johnson and represented the intellect. the malevolence. H»d the earnestness of that movement. Unquestionably the aides) man on that side of the question, he showed all the bitterness of Sumner, without the idlotiy, all tbe rigor of Ashley wlthont hi* Ignoeunee, and aH the determination of Stevens without Ids infirmity, plausible in his speech,bright in bis intellect and uufiinching in bis purpose, his Influence was felt more than that of any of bis associates la the man-

agement of the prosecution.

The personal appearance of Mr. Boutwell is very prepossessing. He has handsome looks, black hair and whiskers, and a countenance that betokens the scholar and the student. Hia speeches have generally been marked by an absence of demsgnglsm, and hia design has seemed to be to oringtu thednclsiou of every sub-

ject the most iboagbtfiil attention.

A* previously announced bv ns. the United Htates coast survey officers bu\c been engaged for some time p >»c in making astronomical observations, by the aid of telegraph, between tin 1 eitc-x of tbe far West and Cambridge Lniver-i'v. For the purpose of arriving a’, the difference in mean tune t'Ctween San Frarieixcoand Boston, the wires *>f tho Western Union Telegraph Company have nightlv been connected, for nearly a montti past, from one side of tho continent to viie other, an*l the ticking of n chronometer in Cambridge University has l>eeii observed and recorded in Han Francisco with a most remarkable degree of accuracy. This is done by connecting the pendulum oftho chronometer at < unhridge with the wire, in such a manner that themain

iir opinion •npon IK . good reason why there siionUl be any t in the oese. Governor Willard and Governor Morton, when left in a similar perdicameut did not call fhe Legislature together again; and even if such a step were necessary now, the election could have been fixed for the first Monday, in April, the dew of the regular township elections all »u er the State, when they would not b ; cost the people a dollar. It is evident that Governor Baker was determined to put tho people of the Democratic conntiee to. this expense, for despicable party purpose*, and a» a punishment for the refusal of their Senators.and Representatives to sanction Ms favorite doctrine of negro suffrage.—JTetp Allctitj/

A Dead Lows to tbe ntsstounrj Fond. Three hundred long-faced, sanctimonious, humble followers of tho Lord ye*terday called upon President Grout to congratulate him. Grant said "thank you.” The conversation then turned on shaking hands. Grant said to shako hands with all tho persons in the United States would be tiresome. All the clergy tutu theu smiled and the interview ended. r ■ It jg interesting to make an estimate of how much loss tilis has been to the mis-

sionary fund, for instance:

How an Artor get out of n Dilemma. -John Palmer, the actor, bad a very long part iu a new play one evening, and wax set down in the bills to xpeak tbe prologue. Trusting to a quick study be kept postponing his attention to both till the iaxt moment, and when the curtain hell bang went on for the prolr8?ue ^without knowing a word of it. The house was packed, and of course in a terrific uproar, a* always at the commencement of a performance. q'ho indomitable Pnltner, amid the confusion, began to move hie lips and gesticulate as if delivering his lines. Ax nobody beard a syllable, tha cries of "silenco,” "hear the prologne," * d >wn in front,” “order,” redoubled from every quarter. He ceased hia motions, and wiia the most graceful dexterity pretended to be greatly disturbed by the disorder, and made a token to tlio gallery ax if to indicate that lie couid not'proceed unless that part of the audience became quiet. This atratggein set tbe pit howling ultbe supposed offenders in the upper regions, mid amid tb# riotous clamor which ensued Palmer came forward, moved his lip* and gesticulated aa before, and just ax the B ttx-l was xlinoxt eeanimr, made his bow and went off. He perfonne 1 his part iu the play with equal success.
