HoK. Joetk COBUHK, of Indiana, in a speech delivered in the House-a few days since, has presented original and wellconsidertd views of the financial situation. He is a vigorous and able speaker, and has aimed at practtcal results, thinking for himself without falling into the tirase of any leader, through mere partisan following. He thinks the true remedies for the present financial condition are to be found in time and funding. To the latter he attaches more importance than resumption—in fact, considers tbe two inconsistent with each other—and believes in expansion rather than in contraction.—C$1. Chronicle.

JtXOKPT Indianapolis, there is 'no city,', in the State where a dramatic company can find adequate support.—Tetre Haute Express.

In the first place managers tblqk they can travel around with indiffeat companies of "supes," and play farces ir light comedy to crowded houses in tidy town they may select. This ib a grept mistake, as people in small places are just as critical—many contend Bt«re so*than those of large cities,, Tbe mere announcement that a play is to be enacted is not sufficient. Managers must leafn to hare meritorious companies that can ay well, and then they will secure croirhouses, as the people soon discover merit and patronize it liberally.—New Albany Ledger*

The Indianapolis Sentinel has the following in relation to the great speech of Judge Hughes in the Senate last Friday afternoon

Tbe orowd in attendance and the deep interest manifested by both the actors and spectators in tbe scene, is the best evidence of the deep interest that ^as felt in tbe discussion. The speech'of Judge Hughes, occupying about two hours, gave evidence of great intellectual power and wonderful resources. Its grtat ability was not only conceded upon ^11 sides, but it wsb regarded as equfcUlo, if not the ablest speech that has ever beeT" delivered in the Capitol of Indiana The logic, the inveotive, the sarcasth and the withering rebuke of tbe gifted speaksr made a profound impression upon bis victim. This effort of Judge Hughes will be published in full, and it can tiot fail to make a deep impression upon the political situation in Indiana

We take the following very poiniod comments from the Cincinnati Gemniercial of Saturday

The account of the debate fo the Sen'1® ate of Indiana on the correspondence between the Governor and Lieutenant Governor of the State, which we reproduce this morning from the IndianspoliB newspapers, is reading matter that will deeply interest politicians throughout tbe country. No cool observer can /ail to see tbat the effect of tbe correspondence will, be damaging to Cumback. It didn't hurt him in the caucus, because this was already fixed for him, and it was-declated at Indianapolis tbat there was nothing unusual in Cumback's request, tbat Baker so warmly resented. There may not have been any thing unusual in it, but it was little and pitiful. Mr. Cdmback appears as a most ardent seeker of and intriguer for office. His notion tpat Hendricks would surely resign, shdws lack of information or an eagerness to be foremost in the race for place that was reckless of probabilities. Then his pnxi' ety to get bis letter out of Baker's bands indicates a conscious weakness and pOor spirit. His "S3 help him God" he would not give up a private letter, referring to

Baker's letter, that bas the bitter wo^ds in it toward himself, when the substance of the letter wa*toew%.w—» absurdity. The lobbies of the Indianapolis Senate can roar witb apptituse $t every commonplace the Lieutenant Gtoveknor may utter, but they do n& represent the public opinion of the couatry, this it would be a kindness to Mr? Gum back to keep him at home e'ffC ***.-

^Tbk Fort Wa^pe ptmawit tells a sad stbry of a woman found lying on the door step of a citizen of that town a few days ago. When discovered she was appar« ently asleep, but was aroused by the use of restoratives, and kindly cared for bj the hospitable gentleman and his wife.— The unfortunate woman staled that she resided in a neighboring town, and had been but recently married. Her faithless husband, however, ere the honeymoon w&j over, negleoted and ill-treated her, and be^an ft firtation with one of the bridesmaids. He induced his eonfiding wife to-sign'a deed for the sale of some property belonging to her, reoeived the money for it, and left the place,, accompanied by tbe bridesmaid above mentioned A few days ago, the injured wile, by jjome means, ascertained that her husband, with his paramour, wis in Fort Wayne. She immediately went there and found that they were boarding at a pri« vate residence. On going to the place Where they boarded, she surprised them by walking up to the husband and claiming him as her own. The family were not in, and only the two guilty wretches were present, who bustled the poor wcajao out into the street. Her husband accompanied her a short distance, and then suddenly disappeared. Feeling as though she had lost all worth living for, she opened a gate of a yard close by, walked in and laid down (o die as she hoped, but fortunately fell into good hands.

Still Barking.

General Blair is still barking at the heels of Gen. Grant, and predicting all sorts of terrible things to happen when the President elect il inaugurated. We supposed this nonsense w'ould subside after the Presidential election, but it seems that for some unknown and mysterious puipose, Blair continues his slanders. It is well tbat the true character of the great defeated should thus become so thoroughly known to his fellow countrymen, and tbat the snappishness displayed so often in local contests in tbiB city, should be revealed in such a grotesque manner before the nation. We can imagine no more sublime a spectacle than the serene complacency with which Gen. Grant looks down upon such ravings as these reported of Blair. The dog may bay the mdo^i, but it is tbe moon still, in all its serene grandeur, totally unconscious of all the yelping curs in the universe.— St. Louis Democrat.
