fHB LABGI8T CIBCULATIO*.

Obzat preparation! are being made for tbeSaeogerfost Musical Convention,which is to occur next month at Indianapolis. A fine building on the Court HouseSquare bat been completed for tbe purpose of the co&vfeoiion, and i» now in the bands of the Committee on Decorations. Our Oer man population throughout the State will attend in large numbers, and many of the best musical associations i# tbe WM be represented.

Tirgng is a great lack of interest throughout oor State, with respect to the approaching October election. There are no State offices to be filled and the elec tion will be wholly of a local character. Our exchanges show but llttlainterest the matter anywhere in the State. We may expect, however, that this condition of things will change in the coarse of few weeki and look forward too short and brisk canvass as the election grows

Tide political campaign In .phio com menced on* Monday. General HaTm made his opening, speech at Lebanon, on the Republican side, and Judge TtttravfAV spoke at Waveriy, #s the standard bearer of the Democracy. The speeches of these gentlemen are published at length in tbe Cincinnati newspapers. A political contest In Ohio is a one-sided affair and does not excite-much interest throughout the country. The State is overwhelmingly Republican and will roll up its usual majority this fall,.

County Convention.

There is too little interest, felt by our party, in tho approaching October elec tion. A Convention has been called by the Executive Committee or the County, to assemble at the old Court House on the 34th of the present month, to select candidates. The preliminary township and ward meetings for the selection of delegates are fixed for the 17th of August —one week from next Saturday. A county Recorder and two county Commission* sts are to be chosen at the election. These offices are important and ought to be filled by Republicans. The Republican party has a clear working majority in Vigo county and no one will gainsay this. It is the fault of the party if a favorable result does not occur.. Thefe'ieSlflS be but-little inteBest-maniftsUrt In thaparty about the next election. There are sev* eral candidates for Recorder announced, and none aa yet for county Commissioner. Nobod^ appears to-take touch interest in the matter. This ought not to be the case, Republicans must wake up and bestir themselves about their nominations. It is Important that good and strong nominations bS made for the next canv«ss and that it be conducted vigorously and successfully. If there are any preferences far men among the Republicans thev should beaettlad before the nom« inating convention. The party should look to tho preliminary meetings, and seleot good delegates, who will reflect the sentiments of the townships and ward*, and make the work of the Convention harmonious and effective. Our voters must turn out at the ward a&d township meetings, and see that satisfactory delegates are chosen. This done, there can be no doubt'of the result. We ask our political friends throughout thft county to attend to this. Go to the primary meetings and settle oil matters there, and then success is sure.

Kentucky Politics.

The stubborn and reckless character of the Kentucky rebels was fully demonstrated in tbe recant eloction. Every means was resorted to to defame and decry the General Government and to display to world the fact that tho rankest Sort of treason and rebellion still lived among the gentlemen of tbe "lost cause'' in Kentucky. It is now apparent that it would have been better for that State to have swung off squarely into the rebellion in the outset and taken its share of punishment With the Stat83 in open rebellion.— Tbe idea that Kentucky is a sort of political reservation, within the General Government, is getting possession of its Reb-el-Democracy and may yet lend them tu grief. The Kentucky politicians, of the Rebel stripe, are anxioue to convince tbe country that they have nothing in common with: tb* other States oi tbe Union and are wholly independent of the General Government. T&ey give out to the world, in plain talk their resolve that nothing out rebellion shall flourish in that State and propose to make it a political Mecca, to which all true Rebels may journey and where tbey find rest. The condition of things in this State is perhaps worse than in any of those which wero lately in armed rebellion. The dreadful, lesson of the war which has juEt closed does not appear to have been learned by Kontuckians, nor was the kind and forbearing conduct of the Federal Government towards them, during the war, appreciated by them. The celebrated "armed neutrality''doctrine with which the politicians of thit Slate started out at the commencement of the Rebellion hat wrought out Its legitimate work and with the help of President JoaxaoN'a "my policy" has produced tbe stale of things whloh now exists in Kentacky. Fortunately the conduct of this State has no influence for harm.

The baiamt

of the t?$ion has very little oare or regard for what transpires within this Utate and would not be much astonished at any time to find it attempting small rebellion on its own hook. The old lame and Wo own of Kentucky has passed away. The ttalwcrt eloquent and brave patriots Of other days are gone and the Kentucky of to-day is hut a mere ghost of what it was a quart*r of a century since.

THE CATACOMBS OP PARIS. A walk Among the Bones or Dead Men. literis {i.yf. 7.) Oor. of the nmattlpUa Press.]

Nothing escapes the French passion for the artificial—not even death. The loveliest forms of nature are made grotesque, and the graveyard is invaded by curious dramatic inventions. If you YisJt .ftr» U. Cham, the chief cemetery of Paris, you find the tomb of Rachael, the actress, covered with the cards of daily visitors and tbe railing around the base of the great monument In the Palace Yendome, erected to Napoleon the First, embosaed with the names of his veterans and victories, is hung with garlands of immortelles some of which are made of wire, as if to last forever. But nothing is at first so revolting to an American as the Catacombs.— Here is, indeed, "a city of the dead." Anxious to let my readers know that 1 have visited tbe famous "Golgotha," procured a ticket from the proper authorities, and, in company with several American gentlemen, repaired, last Saturday, to the principal entrance, at tho old •'fiarriere d'Enfer." Here we presented our pass, and found congregated about 200 persons, males and females, mostly French. The catacombs are only open for exhibition twice a month, and the anxiety to see them is so great that the authorities issue only a limited number of tickets to prevent a crowd. Placing our* selves in a line like the voters on election day, only in couples instead of singly, each of us armod with half a sperm candle, costing three sous, to light our way, we began to descend into the vast charnel house. The downward stair of ninety steps seemed to be endless, and as the French are the noisiest, though apparently the politest people in the world, their ridiculous laughter and curious cries seemed hideous mockeries to our untrained ear*. When we reached the last step, we found ourselves at the beginning of a series of galleries cut through the solid earth, like tbe galleries in our coliieries, and supported by huge stone pillars or abutments. Following our guide, we passed through the main gallery for near a mile, and anally came to the octagonal vestibule of the catacombs. This vestibule introduced us into rooms lined from floor to roof with the bones of three tnll» lions of human beings. The arm, leg and thigh bones are in front, as closely and regularly arranged together as the best masonry, their uniformity being relieved by long rows of skulls at equal distances, sometimes in the shape of a cross, and always acting &s if to relieve tbe otherwise hideous monotony. Behind this outer lortress of bones are thrown the smaller bones.

At intervals, in the oenter of the sides of the rooms or passages, Latin and French inscriptions on white marble slabs are placed—some from Lamartine, some from Xivy,some from the Bible—reminding the spectator of tbe end of life and tbe folly of ambition. As we entered upon this revolting company, all were silent—the silly Frenchmen ceased their cat calls, dog-barking, and laughter—the priests (who, like the soldiers, you find everywhere In France), crossed themsolve with manv a whispered ave, and tbe women huddled to tbe side of their protectors with a pretty pretense of alarm. It was a sight well calculated to reach us, the utter folly of selfishness, falsehood and oppression, and the. priceless value of giving our best efforts to the cause of bumanity, justice and freedom. One of the gravest questions in such a city as Paris ij the burial of the dead. Centuries ago it was a great trouble in tbe populous and powerful er&s of tbe Roman Empire and it is related by an old historian that even after they resorted to burning tbe corpses and preserving the ashes, they had uut space to store away the urns In which these ashes were preserved. These receptacles for tbe bones of tbe dead lu Paris originated in 1784, in consequence of a decree for the clearing of one of tho chief cenr.eteries of the city and from that time, as the progress of improvement and the opening of new streets made apace es* eential, Other burial grounds have been closed, and their human debris carefully gathered into these caverns. I noticed tablets upon which was deeply carved the cemetery from which the closely-packed and grimly-decorated bones bad been removed, several of these bearing the last year's date. Napoleon's improvements stop at no impediments. He destroys the tenements ot the living to open new streets, to widen old ones, and otherwise to beautify the city and he does not hesitate to invade she sanctuaries of tbe grave There is something fearfully cal fulatinn in the arrangement of death and burial la Paris. 1 bavo tried to describe the mode of French living, the systematic devotion to pleasure, the regular disregard of what we call morality and religion, the idolatry of high art In painting, sculpture, music, decoration ana dress, and tbe manner in which vice is polished, not into virtue, but almost into veneration. Tbe same elaborate order follows the human being to his final abode and the ghastly architecture of tbo Catacombs is the finished finale of a heartless programme.— Tue law takes instant cognizance of the dead, as it preserves constant guardianship of tbe living body. Notice of the decease must be instantly made to the Mayor by the relatives, or by the tenant at "whoto house the person died. The body is then visited by the public physician, the cause of dissolution ascertained, and no burial takes plax until 34 hours after death. The undertaker is a monopoly in the hands of a company which pays a certain tariff to the Government. T&ere ar.-J nine classes of funerah, the cost o:' the lowest being $4, and of the first class as high of $1,200. The poor are buried at public expense, close to, but not upon each other, and the graves are opeued every five years and their contents distributed in the mighty vaults I have just visited. As I walked through the streets of this terrible cavern, composed of tbe relics of three millions of my fellow creatures, one million more than those who fret their little hour in the gay city itself, I could not suppress reflections that must be common to all who visit this appalling receptacle. How many Imperial Cteiars '—how many •'poor Yorricks' —how many soldiers, and statesmen, and poets, and philosophies— how many beautiful women—bad once looked and spoken alternate command, wit, courage, eloquence, song, sentiment iind love from these now silent and lusterless skulls" Perhaps the bead nearest me was that of tue lost Robespierre, who, after filling a whole land with blocdand death, faded into utter oblivion. Around me wore gathered tbe victims who fell in the massacres of the 2d and3Jof Septem1793' that.dread carnival which hastened Li- own doom and opened tho way for thesp.endid rulo of Napoleon the First. And it was almost impossible, after comparing the uncertainty and uneasiness of the more enlightened government of N apoleon relative with the terrible drama that ushered in and closed bis own career, to avoid asking the question. How long it will ho belOre another uprising of this uncertain and exacting people contributes new thou sands to the skeleton millions 1

Mr Dub Post—The hobnobbing of potentates in Paris is one of tbe obit remarkable incidents of the Exposition: Perhaps it ia one of the object*.. Whether ISr admiration trr atra of Emperor of the French," hie Majesfy could hardly do a better thing fot-himself than to make occasion of the great International Fair to invite the ratal of'Surope to com6T&iT£5*rMm, TiraSKiet at the

A rather hsmdsoige, decidedly shrewd and somewhat truculent person in Abdul Aziz, a very different sort of fellow from his unlaureated "bristlier, the Sultan as was, a little while ago, and who was only remarkable for uxoriousnest and extravagance. Naturally enough-the women throng around ^is highness wherever he goes. Half tbe coquettes of Europe, married and single, have been bowing at his royal feet, anx ious to eclipse each' other In bis royal eyes, and*perhaps aoabftious to outshine, in his Highness' fancy, the finest of his odalisque*at home. Alas!- it is all Love's (or rathflt! Vanity's) labor lost. One of his Hi^.liness's suite (whom an over?curious Frenchman questioned on the subject! made answer that of all the Sultan haa seen in France, he liked the wpmen least. Of one very Stunning cofcm, which he was expected to admire per force,"he said with more point than politeness, that their laces were tbe best thing about them. As to their style of dressing, he.complaioed both of what they had on and what tbey* had off—declaring' that their heads were too heavily laden for good taste, and their boioms too bare for decency. Indeed, he was.quite severe on the impudicity of the low-necked dresses, and denounced the chignon with ur.oriental vehemence as a monstrous invention of the enemy of beauty marveling greatly "that woman endowed by nature with a head email, round and beautiful, should be at so much pains to make it huge* irregular and hid' eous." Sooth to say, there are some good Christians who quite agree on this point, with the representative of Mahomet

For myself, takiug a wider view of the subject, and being somewhat less fastidious than the Turk (a connoisseur txoffldo, so to speak,) I flna the women, whether considered as natural productions, or ranked as "works of art," among tho didst interesting and delightful objects'ln and about the Exposition, In one point (en-bOc-point) the Sultan himself ought to be content. Several drives in the Bois de Boulogne disclosed to me tbe rather startling fact that at least half—.

Mr. Stetson, of the Astor House, has related to a few an anecdote of Mr." Webr ster, with whom he was for a long time very intimate. On one occasion—ten or twelve years before his. death—Webster was in bis room, a dozen gentlemen with him to dlnei One Of them asked the great Daniel: "What, Mr. Webster, is tbe most S .uus thought that ever occup ed your mi:id Tne expounder of the Constitution was silent for a few minutes, and seemed to be reflecting deeply. His face at last lighted up, and his whole soul shone through it. He rose with dignity and said in his deep, rich tones "The most serious thought that ever oeeupied my miudj was my responsihiQty .to Almighty God." And for tfwenty riSinuteS —to quote Stetson—his language sparkled like the sunshine upon molten dia« inonds. 1 have heard Webster in almost ev.ry effort he ever made, but I nevtt beard him so fiuidly eloquent, so much the representative of the glorious genius he wus, so incomparably superior to all other orators of this or any other country as on that never to-be-forgotten occasion.
