"The Right of Murder." The Journal, in an article under the above caption, a few days since, alludes with considerable feeling to the demoralized sentiment prevailing in the community in regard to the murders that have been committed in our midst recently. We agree with that paper in its strictures upon crime and criminals, and we stand ready to co-operate with it in any effort it may suggest that will be calculated to arouse public sentiment to the necessity of vindicating law and order, and placing a higher and just estimate upon the value of human life. Referring to the recent murders in this city, the Journal remarks: "What we have to say now is not designed to weigh a feather one way or the other in the balances by which the men now under indictment for murder are to be tried; but we do desire to rous public feeling to a point where a reckless man will be made to realize that he does a dan-

gerous thing when, for a real or fancied grievance of any kind, he takes the law in his own hand, and resorts to the arbitrament of death against the one whom he thinks has wronged him. "Life will not be valuable in the eyes of men taught by the war to put so slight an estimate upon it, when the moment a man commits a murder, the victim is forgotten, and public sympathy misdirected to him who is the murderer. When the public feeling is so debauched that a murderer becomes either a hero or a martyr (added to the very unfortunate character of our criminal code, and the tendency to prolong investigations until the public mind wearies and the interest abates), it is time to carefully consider what is necessary and proper to secure to society the protection of the law designed for the security of those who abide by it, and those who willfully violate It. "We have intimated the evils that must be cured before we can reasonably expect a better condition of society. A strong respect for law, and a determination criminals shall be punished, must be created; a feeling so strong that reckless men will feel and defer to it. Public sympathy must be diverted from the criminal, that a man may not be made to believe that to stand trial for murder is recognized as a species of persecution, and that he runs no risk of punishment; he must be taught that impartial justice will be meted out to him, and that when he takes the law into his own hands he must be willing to abide the consequences.’’ All this is well. We subscribe to every sentiment that the Journal expresses In condemnation of what it terms, but it is an anomolous expression, "the right of murder." It is a debauched public feeling when a murderer becomes either a hero or martyr—and when the man who has taken “the law in his own hand and resorts to the arbitrament of death against the one whom he thinks has wronged him," receives public honors instead of the indignant reproach, the pointing of the finger of scorn that should be directed against the murderer no matter what his condition in life may be, whether high or low, rich or poor. As the Journal remarks, these evils must be cured "before we can reasonably expect a better condition of society," or the healthy public sentiment that will visit just punishment upon those who take the law into their own hands for the redress of fancied or real grievances. But we can not expect that "better condition of society’’ when a President that rode into power upon a popular wave, almost unexampled in our public history, sees fit to appoint murderers to positions of high honor under his administration. General Grant has set the pernicious and unfortunate example of making a hero of a murderer. Some years ago Daniel E. Sickles, then a member of Congress from New York city, sallied forth from his residence in Washington City, armed to the teeth, and shot down, without warning, a defenceless man—resorting to the arbitrament of death against the one whom he said had wronged him. He took the law into his own hands. Shortly after his acquittal, he resumes his marital relations with the woman whom he said had dishonored him. To save his neck, it is reported that he induced his wife to sign a written statement that she was faithless to her husband. In a few years this woman dies of a broken heart, and it is said that upon her death bed she charges that her husband had forced her to admit faithlessness and crime, to screen .him from punishment. Now comes the moral. The President of a party professing to represent the morality, the virtue and the piety of the country, appoints a murderer—the man who took the law into his own hand and killed the victim for a real or fancied grievance—to one of the highest and most honorable positions within his gift. Can the effect of such an example be otherwise than demoralizing? Can it fail to debauch the public mind, lower the standard of public and private morals, and diminish respect for law? Does not the honoring of such a man by the Chief Magistrate of the nation illustrate most forcibly the sentiment expressed by the Journal, that "life will not be valuable in the eyes of men taught by the war to place so light an estimate upon it, when, the moment a man commits a murder, the victim is forgotten, and public sympathy misdirected to him who is the murderer?" Without intending in any way to palliate or excuse the heinous crime, or criminals now confined in our jail, with what sort of conscience can a paper like the Journal urge their vigorous prosecution when a man who, just as they did, took the law into his own hands and slaughtered his victim, is singled out by the President of the United States for the bestowal of his choicest favors? If the Journal is really anxions for a "better condition of society," let it strike, with its most vigorous blows, at the root of the evil.

Apfraprtmtim

The propoesd rsllmad appropriations, 1160,000 for the proposed Indianapolis, Delphi and Chicago, and 9100,000 for the Indiana and Illinois Central Railroads, curled In this eity and township by a small majority for each, bat the outside townships voted overwhelmingly against the proposition and defeated it. If this action la not reconsidered it le probable that both of tbeoe enterprises will fell. We andentand that It la how proposed to redoes the donations to $76,000 tot the Chicago and 160,000 for the Indiana and Illinois Central, with a guarantee that the shops for each road ahall be located In thla city, and In this shape again submit the proposition to the vote of this township. If this aid, npon the conditions named, will secure the bnlldlag of theae roads, we have no doubt the proportion wUl receive a decided majority. We advocated the appropriatioa for the reason that In our Judgment the building of these roads would be of great advantage to the city and county, and that It would be a good investment to secure them at that cost. And we are satisfied the more the matter la considered the etronger will be the conviction that Indianapolis should do her part toward tha construction of these roads. It le admitted by even the opponents of the appropriation that the proposed roads would be of material aid in Increasing the prosperity and growth of the city, yet they oppose the only means by which they can be secured, either because they will Interfere with rival routee or on account oi the cost. We do not despair of securing the construction of these roads, as we are unwilling to believe that Indianapolis is so deficient in enterprise and energy as to let the opportunity escape that will continue her position of the rsllrosd center of the West and asalat in making her a great commercial and manufaotarlng cltw. Our advice to the enterprising and live men of thia city la "to pick yonr flints and try It again."

"Better luck next time."

lasher verses Capital. In his recent Clifton speech, Mr. P*wdleton thus refers to the relations of ospltaland labor: " Labor does not receive its Jnst reward. This country needs skilled laborers, and ;bonest, Intelligent, unflagging, aealena Industry; it needs that each labor shall not be chaap, bat that It ahall be most bountifully rewarded. The relation of capital and labor la now badly adjoated. Idle money—money which has no human wants or affections, or sympathies—earns more than labor, with all its sweat, and toll, and sofTering, Money combines with money, and seeks Increase and immaalty under acts of incorporation. When laborers combine for their protection, they are, in some of onr States, denounced by the law, and everywhere looked upon With suspicion. They should not antagonize. They should cooperate. They etaonld be In harmony. I do not know that the full solution of this great problem has been discovered, bat I believe grest progress has been made fn late years to eatabltsh a Juster and better relation. That progress will continue." A**The Ohio Suue»man, la commenting upon Mr. Pknm.eton’s first speech of the campaign in Ohio, nays: "It Is the able speech of the ablest statesman of hla age on the continent. Aod proud are we, and proud are the Democracy of Ohio, that thla statesman la their ataadard bearer In the present contest— their candidate for Governor of bis native State.'’

The riMwelal Pollejr. Mr. PiNPLaTON, in bis late speech, briefly but forcibly states what he regards the true financial policy of the Government. He says: "The wbola policy of the administration should be reversed. Psy the debt, psy it honestly, according to the contract, pay it in money as valuable as that which waa received for it; pay it in legal tender notea; aboliah the national bank aystem; pay off the bonds on which they are founded; save the yearly interest ; use every appliance of economy and management in advancing thia policy. Then, when the debt is paid, when taxes are reduced, when seventy-five millions suffice for the Government, when all property is subjected to a Juat rule of taxation, if it be advisable to contract the currency aod resume specie payments, it can be effected without great disaater, and the Inevitable suffering can be borne."

MEDIUMS. Editor Srntinbl:—Before taking up the subject to which I propose to devote this number, I wish to say, that the writer of these communications on the ■abject of aplritnaliam in the Sentinel who has used the signature, B. is not the writer of s communication on the same subject which appeared in the Journal on Monday, September 13, and who used the asms aignature (B). Inasmuch aa that writer (in the Journal) has used the same signature that 1 have heretofore used, I change mine, as I do not intend to he, or appear to be, responsible for anything which I do not write. I shall hereafter use as s signature the word Examiner, which I trust will not be adopted or claimed by any one else. I do thia because already several persona have come to me, supposing that article was

mine.

JUJIn my last number I recommended, that persons everywhere, in every position of life, who coaid make the trial, or who believed themselves to be strongly magnetic, should make the trial, and see If they could not also recelvs these superhuman writings. They are not supernatural writings, in my opinion, any more than telegraphing is'supernatural; but only superhuman; that is writings made by intelligences not human, but made through a bumau conductor, a medium; a medium is a woman or a man, having the capacity to receive the writing, or to enable the unseen intelligence to write It, Juat aa the Iron wire enables the telegrapher to send a message, and nothing more, fitted by nature, to carry the electric message, which we all know, a rope,

or a atrip of wood, can not do.

There ia nothing discreditable or improper In the exerclaeof medlomsbip. It is a natural £ri/(,aathe New Teatamentltells aa; and of course given by our Creator for s useful sad good purpose, and therefore should be used t>y every one who possesses it. It ia s talent, and ought not to be buried. It will of course occupy the time of the person who thue acts aa a medium, bat every one who thus em-

ploye a medium—to receive messages and writings, from bis or her spirit friends, will cheerfully make compensation for

that time. In this way It wonld be much better, in a worldly point of view, for any one who has the power to be a good medium, than nfany of their present employments are. All persona desiring them to hold the slate for them, would freely and cheerfully pay them at least a half a dollar an hour, tor their time, and many would present them with more than that. A good medium, known as respectable and honest, whose power was acknowledged, weuid have an excellent, proAtsble and reputable profeeslon, right here in onr city. No donbt there are nfty persona here, who are good medlnma—but as yet nndeveloped. Try the matter. Get a common school slate and pencil. Hold them under a table or under a cover, any place where the pencil can be used to write, and where the air can circulate. Be patient. Try often and perseveringly. Remember that this is not witchcraft, not supernatural j but the mere development and discovery of one of natures laws of which the world in general has aa yet, been ignorant. We are constantly learning new things, always progressing In knowledge, and from what we see and read, about thla matter it appears that a new field for study Is hers opened up to us, and promised to as, aa a theory more beantifal and Intereating than fcny ever before known. Many of ns are examining It earefnlly and honeetly, with good intent, and want honest and known mediums to aid aa. We are told that mediant mm obnat and deceive na; that there are many corrupt and dlahonest persons who are practicing, apparent, medlomsbip, who are cheats and mountebanks. We don’t want anything to do with each people, and if we can help It. won’t. Therefore it is that there is need to try and develop more mediums.

A Lively Dlseaeslon of Live Issues.

Hon. George Gillaspy’s speech at the court house was so earnest and exhaustive discussion of the live issues fn politics. He ignored fell dead issues, and did not once allnde to the negro question. His speech was entirely in accordance with the Democratic platform adopted at Des Moines in Jnly. He began by alluding to the feet that It bad been the usual practice of both parties to nominate lawyen, doctors, judges and sometimes gentleman of high military distinction, to office; bnt the speaker oonld make no claims to either rank. Neither was be a "banker or a bondholder, bnt only a plow bolder and a pork packer." He bad been a bard laboring man all hia days; and be waa opposed to high salaries—some of bis friends told him that

to high sala-

tbls was because be had always worked for low wages. Some persons claimed that the salary should be gauged according to the niche where the office ia located. But tho speaker contended tbat a high office, with leas labor to portorm,

nigi

should not pay a higher salary than a small office which takes np all of a man’s

time. He had never been able to see the propriety of paying a man a higher salary to All an office than is paid to All a smaller office which takes jnst aa much ability aa the larger office. Many men in office get four or five times as large

salaries as they are worth.

The speaker was in favor of economy, and In order to be economical it was necessary to avoid paying interest as much as possible. The Democratic party say that we onght to begin now to pay thu principal of the pnblic debt, by redeeming bonds at their parvalne, as expressed on their faces, instead of allowing the •Secretary of the Treasury to buy them up at the price to which Wall street speculators may have inflated them. Republicans claim that the debt ought to be extended to a far period. The Democratic party was in favor of redeeming the bonds aa fast as possible at their par value. The speaker would ask any Republican lawyer if the Secretary was not violating his oath by paying 9120 for f 100 worth of bonds, on Wall street, instead of redeeming them at their face, as he should do. The interests of the people demanded that the bonds should be redeemed at their face. The time had come when taxes should be equal. It was a libel and a slander to say that the people want that men who can put their bauds in their pockets and draw out government bonds should go scot free of taxation such as people who own other kinds of property to the same amount have to pay. Tbe question was asked, if we could fix a period when the debt can be paid. The Democratic party claimed that tbe interest can be reduced to-day; but it will not be done unless you get a new sot of men in power. Tbe party in power are self-interested, and can not be expected to make laws tbat will operate against their private interests. The people pay 9- r >50,0()0,000 annually into the treasury. Of this, 9120,OUO,OOo is paid as Interest on the debt; as yet, only J 12,000,000 has been appropriated toward paying the principal of the debt. The speaker was in favor of stopping tbe lesks; and was willing to vote tor any man who would faithfully, honestly snd impartially discharge his duty. He had no fault to And with bankers themselves. The law allowed them to bold bonds without paying taxes on them, and it was with the law that he found fault. A law which was found to operate unequal-

ly should be repealed.

Colonel Oillaspy next proceeded to discuss the temperance question. Ho proclaimed himself a temperance man. For twenty-seven years he had not tasted lager beer, whisky, or brandy. Ho believed that drunkenness whs a in is fort tine. He could say to a drunkard, “Look around on your family and see what you are bringing them to." But the poor, miserable drunkard wan no more to lie blamed than tbe man who sold him the liquor, and it would be all right to take him to jail. The speaker had accepted a nomination on the Democratic State platform In good faith; no party and no power on earth had the power to make him do what he thought wan wrong. In alluding to the ansertlons of the Republicans that tbe liemocratic party was the whisky party, Colonel Gillaspy playfully related an incident which took place in a sleeping car in which he was riding from Chicago to Iowa: In the morning, about twenty young fellows drank from little willow glasscn something which gave a strong odor of whisky; and In order to tent the whisky side of politics, Colonel Oillaspy remarked to a friend that he, if he were a belting man, would be willing to bet that Die majority of these young fellows who were taking their "morning tod” belonged to the Republican party. The question was accordingly put, and It was ascertained tbat eighteen of the twenty voted with the Republican party. This illuatration of the way In which Republicans practiced their moral precepts elicited much laugh-

ter and applause.

Colonel Oillaspy concluded Ids speech with a discussion of the tariff law, remarking at tbe outset that the Democratic party were opposed to the present tariff law, as protecting the rich domestic manufacturer, and knuckling to Johnny Bull, by practically admitting the cheapness of English goods. The speaker argued that hfme protection corrupted tlds nation. The claim that articles of luxury are taxed higher than the necessities of life could not lie sustained. In proof of tlds position, lie cited l\xa ad vnlirrm duties on three articles of luxury, as fol-

lows:

Wine fiO per cent. Cigars GO per cent. Hilks !Hi per cent. In contrast with this statement were the duties imposed by the same taril! law on articles indispensable to the use and consumption oi the people,* and which should be selected for the lowest duties. The speaker cited a list of these necessaries, wit h the present rate of duly attached, as follows: Woolen overcoating 127 per cent . Woolen hosiery 122 per cent. Blankets, according to weight, from 110 to 312 per cent. The same held true of other indispensable articles. People who must have overcoats and hosiery paid the highest revenue to the manufacturer, while those who indulged in the luxry of wines and cigars paid the lowest. The speaker argued forcibly and clearly that this system should bo reversed, so as to favor the great mass of consumers instead of a few monopolists. "8TATE ITEMN.

—The Miller vs. Curry contest for the clerkship of Boone county has been decided in favor of the former. The fects are these: Curry’s majority was twentyfive, and he received a certificate of election and took possession of the office. Miller contested the case before the CotniniHsloner, and wa« given the office by a majorify of nineteen votes. Curry appealed the case to a higher court, snd Judge Bluir, of Indianapolis, was called to hear it, and decided that Miller was elected by one vote. If Judus Blair's interpretation ot the election law atandait will disfranchise thousands of heretofore voters in Indiana. He rejected anumber of votes given by bands working on the Indianapolis and Crawfordsville Railroad upon the ground that they bad not the residence required under the election laws, the intent to become a permanent resident in the election district where they resided at the time of the election and had attained a ten day’s residence. Tbis construction would exclude nearly all tenants from the polls, becauce mo-t of thorn are subject to tbe will of tbe landlord. Judge Blair thinks that they are residents though for all purposes but voting, especially if they aro inclined to vote the Democratic ticket.

THE FASHIONS.

Fall Bonnets and the Material they are Made of—Ribbon*. Trim minx a—Etc. "Mhirley Dare” writes as follows to the Chicago IlepuLlican, upon the fall fashions in New York city: The fall bonnets are carricatnres. One grows inconsolable over the loss of the gracelul aud pretty fashion that Just protected the top of the head from sunstroke and kept, the ears warm, leaving the head to be shielded, us it ought to l>e, by the mass of hair which, after all, was no larger than a woman ought to have. I be lleve iti large chignons, covering the back oftiie head. Nature intended that woman should have a yard and a half of thick hair, and that they should do it up in twists or braids, or smooth puffs, and •ll.H{M>soof it aitlie back of the bead,not on the top of U, as the present satmldlng fashion dresses it. It is enough to put one out of patience to think of the not braids hanging low in the neck, making short pci.pic lock frog-throated, soiling collars, and irritating the skin. Hair ought to he worn neither above the head nor below it. However, chateiain braids are in vogue, namely, heavy three-piv braids looped from side to side at the back of (be neck, reaching thu shoulders. in cover the back of the head, left uncovered by the heavy falling braids, tho bonnets are made large across tiie too. The frames appear no larger than they have done, luit an inch tells as much in a bonnet aa it does in oilier situations. When coverect with velvet puffs, ostrich plumes, and mounted with monstrous roses, the difference in size from the fairv-like bonnets of a season ago is very noticeable. The forms partake of the Watteau and pouf styles, fashionable for a year past. Jiie tops aro covered with double aud triple puffs with reverse, or standing trimmiugs, on front and back. The trimmieg is placed high at the back to replace the effect ot the chignon. Plumes, laces and liowers are piled there till the result is towering. Violet ami royale, with groagrain, ars tho materials for bats next season. One can not roalizi that summer is past till one w akes up to find ice on the windows. The shined and puffed grosgrain hats will lie in very good stylo, I am told. Tbe material is arranged in puffs, and shades of a single color are arranged in harmony. Tho front is a standing plissc nr pleating, with a large flower in a nest of foliage disposed alsmt the center. The back is covered with plumes, and a black lace veil, a yard and a half long, is draped there, to be brought round to the face as desired. The poult dc soie ribbons are shown in boxes assorted for tho trade. The prevailing colorssbow both very light and dark shades. Grass green and lumiere, which has less yellow than the former, contrast with dark copperyshadea. Marie Louise blue is again in tavor, as well aa tho Mexican, which is a very light shade, and not a derk one, as written in a former article. There aro two shades of thia, known as Mexique No. 1 and No. 2, the former the lightest. The shade ia much paler than sky blue, and barmonizea with dark complexions, especially with lace trimmings. Tho Luciterredia much brighter than smltaii. Jtosr dc c/unc,with black velvet, ia admired. This verges on cherry color more than any pink. Dark brown will be much worn. A three-inch ribbon is tho proper width, aa airings are to be worn. Laces will be more nsod than ever. Dotted ■ real tulles, to be trimmed with thread edges, are sold for veils. Numerous barbos of lace will fall about the face f <r drapery. Tbrea t lace will be conspicuous among the trimmings of velvet hats. Flow* rs will bo much worn, as I am expressly told by a leading member of the firm, whoso advice is q loted here. Later in the season, he thinks, they will be more worn than leathers. The large velvet rosea are especially admired when tbe desolation of winter is aronnd. Flowers are very large. Magnificent velvet poppies and thistles, with mistletoe and cedar wreaths, are favorite fancies. Roses, as usual, are the staple flower. The looaeleavnd crimson kind, with short wreaths of foliage, are most seen. Roses and holly, roses and cider liowers aud berries, roses and onk leaves tiil box alter box of the beautiful assortment in wholesale rooms. I’unsios ot every size, both large and small, golden and purple, will be fashionable. Elder liowers alone are much used as a flower for evening bonnets. Largo blue cane panulaa, with wreaths of ground codar-frosted are very handsome. Quantities of shaded leaves in natural instead of metalic tints, will almost cover bonnets. Both long and short feathers are worn. The ostrich tips will be used quite as much as plumes, as they are more elegant than any but the most expensive tong ones. Game plumes will be worn In the fall, but not later in the season. Hats entirety covered with the breast of the golden pheasant, with its head in front lor the crest, are sold for 921 each. They are much sought by lashionables, but are not pleasant styles. Round hats of seal skin will be worn by the elegantes. They range from 90 to 924. There are quantities of colored ostrich tips in the market; bright plumes and darker shades of velvet will be the rule. Elegant vignettes, surrounded by tufts of ostrich, nearly covering a bonnet or bat, are sold at low prices. The feather bands will be worn on hats. Delicate marabout tnfts, that s^ein to escape from the throats of pearly lilies, are beautiful ornaments for evening hats. Fancy plumelets and fringes are shown in numerous styles. Round hats are very high, with sloping crowns and small upturned brims. Felt and dark straw, brown, black or marcon are shown. Turbans will only be worn by those few who prefer to carry their own excellent taste in spite of fashion. The trimming is piled on the top. A lelt bat is a faint, misty drab, a shmlow color; the shape high, with facings.of drab velvet and pleated folds across the crown, ending in large bows before and at the sides far back. The whole thing has a pare monotone of most delicate color, juat suited to a dark haired person of fine complexion. By the way, this shade etoOedu matin, which contrasts so beautifully with scarlet or black, will be fashionable the next winter in dress as well as millinery. of maroon velvet has three oetrich tips of Sultan color, arranged to be nearly standing at the back. The front

has three pleatlngs of Loci for gras grain, one above the other, then combining three shades of dark red, the long veil & fastened by a jet medallion among the plumes, and a bright heed rose looks over not easily reconcile this with taste.
