The German bishops will be favorable to the' Court of Rome on some quesP^jtions but will vehemently oppose it on otliets.—particularly those of a political j^and social character.

\T THE Exposition of Woolen Fabrics, in New York, Mr. BIGELOW, the President of the National Association of .•-'Wool Manufacturers, recently delivered ah address in which he gave some statistics of the production of American looms that will astonish many of those ." even, who are in the trade. To the Rehellion Mr. BIGELOW attributes the rapid development of the wool interests in this country, and from its too quick growth he tjiinks has also come the present depression in the trade. lie said that an old manufacturer had recently remarked

at no time within his experience would a dollar in currency buy as much cloth as now the reason assigned being, that while the production of the fabric .had increased one hundred and fifty per cent., the growth in population had been only thirty. In 1S60 there were but sixty jnillion pounds of wool grown, and the production of 18C8 had increased to one -hundred and seventy million*. Almost the same increase is pcrceptilile in the manufactured article, for while in 1860 it amounted in. value to only sixty-eight •jnillions of dollars, last year it ran up to one hundred and seventy-live millions. Tlie effect of this progress in our home manufactures is seen in a decrease of importations of six and a half millions for the year 1868 as against that oi' 1S60.

The

and its political friends

need have no fears that "citizens of color" will ever demand or desire admission to their "receptions and entertainments." The self-respect of the Negro will be a sufficient guarantee against that.

THK men who fought the battles of the country have, in Attorney General HOAR, a firm and consistent guardian of their interests. In proof of this, we cite his recent decision that claim agents who have practised fraud, either upon the United States or on individuals, in the prosecution of soldiers' claims for bounty or pensions, have no status

in the War

Department, and may be excluded therefrom at the option of the Secretary. The Atorney General says:—"I take it for granted this access is a privilege, not a right, and that, though harsh, a Secretary may withhold the privilege on testimony of a less degree than would be expected in case the party were indicted and prosecuted criminally." This may operate against dishonest agents, but, as it cannot effect the standing of honest ones, Attorney General HOAB has thrown additional security about tho.~e who are entitled to government reward for their services in the field.

INDIANAPOLIS LETTER.

FISHING IN NORTHERN INDIANA. INDIANAPOLIS, Oct. 11. "Crown point!" It was six o'clock in the morning when the train stopped and the porter of the car made the announcement that got us out of our berths in a twinkling.

Under ordinary circumstances, or for instance going to Chicago to assist a corner in grain, or speculate in lots near the new park, or even see sights and envelope hash at the Sherman, one would'nt care a continental for Crown Point. The impatient traveler might even grumble at the creaking of wheels and clamor of brakes, and turning uneasily in his couch, wonder why in the dickens Hamlet did'iit finish that sentence— "When Roscius was an actor in Rome—."

This time, however, it was an exclamation of jolly significance to three proprietors of rods and reels and high-top boots and things, who were on a little fishing excursion to Foley Lake.

For the perspicuity of history it may be well to say that these three were Tip. Layton, Esq., of the Brewster line of sleeping coaches, from Indianapolis to Chicago, Julius Walk, of W. P. Bingham & Co., this city, and the subscriber. Gathering our traps hastily and giving them into the care of those model landlords, Messrs. Search & Wiley, of the Crown Point Hotel, who told us coffee was ready and hot, we hastened to the loco-

motive

and pulled from the tank thereof

our five buckets of minnows, and were elated to find -the inhabitants of each bucket alive and kicking.

ON THE ROAD.

Breakfast and a two-horse spring wagon were standing ready, and it was not long before we had given proper attention to both, and were on the road to the lake, three and a half miles distant. The party was augmented by the addition of a boy, for rowing, and work about the camp, whom Tip named Leather Breeches," "Budget of Fun," "Night Blooming Cereus," &c., for short, and Mr. Search, who held the ribbons and drove at a spanking pace to keep even with the eager impatience of his guests

There was a threat of rain in the air, as Laura Ream has put it, and before long it began to fall, making the prospect of a days good fishing appear rather squally. However, as it began before seven, bets were freely ofiered that it would clear up before eleven, in conformty with the time-honored custom of Jupiter Pluvius—and it did.

HORNETS FOR BAIT.

Passing a certain point on the road Search remarked: "Here's where we got that hornets' nest for bait, you remember, Tip?" "Yes, I remember," said Tip, and then to stop any further remarks about the hornets' nest Tip wondered what had be come of Yankee Doodle, the gentleman who was with them on the occasion alluded to by Search.

The diversion didn't succeed,* however, and we urged Search on with his narrative. "I'll tell you how it was. Tip and Yankee Doodle—a down-easter—and I, were out here fishing and got out of bait. The day was splendid, the bass were biting awful, and we hated to give it up. Finally a liornets'nest was discovered in a small jack-oak near the road, and I had an idea." "I'll tell you what it is, boys, there's bait and plenty of it. "Where?" asked Tip, surprised and doubtful." "Why there in that hornets' nest.'' "Mr. Search, will you have the kindness to drive on? we don't want any hornets in ours, you know."

But Search explained that the nest contained thousands of young hornets, a very harmless animal at that age, looking like so many grub worms, and were the best of bait. All they had to do was to knock the nest down and runoff with it the hornets would keep flying around where the nest had been, and could be easily dodged.

Tip couldn't see it distinctly, but finally looked at the ne= through a small flask, and consented. "Cutting a good switch each, for use incase the emergency should arise, they glanced at the landscape, and struck an attitude. Search advanced boldly, knocked the nest down and picking it up carefully, ran off at full peed.

Somehow Tip, and Yankee Doodle did not study the programme carefully, or perhaps concluded it an easy matter to capture a hornets' nest after all, and were standing with arms at ease, when they were suddenly interviewed by a delegation of hornets searching for SearchOne of the liveliest scenes in natural history commenced just at that j^eriod. Tip. savs all the incidents of his life, including some matters he did not care about dwelling upon, came in rapid succession to his mind. Not to be dismayed, however, he determined to stay by Yankee Doodle—until lie had a good chance to run.

In the meantimethe hornets were lively, and gave the ruthless invaders of their premises all the business they could attend to. Hornets, hats, coat tails, hickory switches and two excited human beings were mixed up in almost inextricable confusion. After the first round or two Tip. and Yankee Doodle solemnly agreed to keep the hornets off of each other, and if either of them fell in the scrimmage, the surviver was to notify the bereaved family. Then the hornets called time, and the fight was renewed.

Tradition, nor the proprietor of the Crown Point Hotel, doe3 not state how long the contest lasted but when thedd-

u.^

THE LAKE*

By the time Search got through with the hornets the horses turned abruptly from the main road, and in a few minutes Foley Lake appeared in view. The ample boat-house contained six boats, and each man selecting his craft, it wAa ihimediatelp shoved out into the wet.

The lake is a somewhat peculiar body of water. It is five miles in length, and from a quarter of a mile to a mile in width, and crooked, so that no more than a mile of watery expanse can be seen at any one point of view. It is from four to twenty feet deep, the bottom almost entirely overgrown with beautiful water moss, reaching up through the water with long vine-like sprays to Within a few feet of the surface. This furnishes the cosiest of hiding places for fish, especially the pickerel. Along shore, skirting the numerous islands, and in many places far into the lake, tamarac bushes grow in great profusion, and here and there in all directions the broad leaf of the water lily floats gracefully on the wave, anchored securely to the bottom by its long rope of a stem.

SNAKING OUT BASS.1

Minnows assorted, and reels and lines fixed to the poles, we manned the oars of our respective boats and pulled across the lake. Alight wind was blowing from the south, so that the boats drifted slowly back, after the lines were thrown out, keeping the bait moving leisurely through the water.

I had got one pole into position, and was fixing the other, when the reel of the first began to make music, the result of a glorious nibble. Taking the pole with a feeling akin to Fourth-of July enthusiasm I let out thirty or forty feet of line, and jerked. Hawling in I found my game was a pound and a half rock bass,—one of the broad spotted fellows—a species that is not so gamey as the genuine black bass, but still a fine fish.

It was some time before I could get out both lines at once, the rock bass swimming near the surface taking the bait almost as soon a3 it struck the water. After fishing about a half an hour, however, one of the reels—each being fixed with an' alarm—sung out beautifully.— There was something game at the end of that string, and it had to be managed carefully. Lettting him go until he had a hundred and twenty feet of line, and then detecting the vibration that indicates the swallowing of the bait, I jerked and held tight. Then followed an exciting piscatorial row. Swimming right and left with a rapidity that made the line whiz through the water, the bass contested every inch of lessening space between him and the merciless monster in the boat. But it was no go. The hook had taken good hold, and the only question was one of time.

At the boat the gamey fish made several frantic attempts to hide underneath, but finally gave it up in despair. He was a broad-shouldered black bass weighing four and three quarter pounds. A certain popular conductor on the Peru road knows what finally became of that fish

The first half hour's fishing had resulted well, there being on the string eight rock bass and the black one. At the end of two hours I had caught eighteen fish, including four large black bass, and two piokerel, weighing five and seven pounds each. With these tied to one of the oar-locks, I took up my lines and pulled leisurely back to camp.

In the meantime Julius and Tip. hadn't slept any to speak of, an occasional splash, and "How's that for hi?" telling of the fish they were hauling in.

During the day eighty odd bass and pickerel were caught, and when the sun went down, and long dark shadows crept stealthily out on the water, there were three fishermen who were willing enough to pull their buffalo robes about them and lie down to pleasant dreams.

PROF. LAYTON AS A COOKIST. Before retiring, however, it was necessary to provide supper. To this end Tip. took an oar and made some mortar of the clay and sand along shore. The mortar was not to be eaten, as will appear. Some ducks that Search had killed during the day were the objects of Tip's strange proceedings. Taking one of these, and without picking a feather or removing the entrails—this may be skipped, if the reader is squeamish—he proceeded to plaster it over with the mortar, laying on to the depth of half an inch. Two or three quacks were fixed in this way, then, scraping a suitable place in the ashes of our camp-fire, he deposited his lumps and covered them with hot ashes and live coals. After baking an hour they were taken out and placed 011 a bench to cool. At the proper thne the clay covering was broken off,and with it came feathers and skin, leaving the clean meat. The entrails came out in a lump and then—supper was ready

It was a savory dish without salt or sauce, our respected lady relatives and friends to the contrary notwithstanding, and Layton's ducks, on this occasion, were gone, bones and all, before the hungry fishermen and the "Night-blooming, &c., were half satisfied.

CATCHING PICKEREL.

The next day's fishing was nearly a repetition of the first, only a larger number of pickerel were caught, and two or three dozen small striped perch, called by the natives, calico bass.

Trolling with a spoon hook has been, and in many places is yet, the usual method of catching pike or pickerel. We preferred live bait, and our rods. It is more exciting, and requires more skill.

Going to some good place, where for instance there is a line of moss and deep water beyond, the anchor is heaved out and lines and bait quietly adjusted. Pulling fifty or sixty feet of line off the reel, and coiling it conveniently on the seat or bottom of the boat, the minnow is swung around two or three times to get the right impetus, and thrown to some desireed spot.

Mr. l'ickerel sees the stranger swimming near his mossy cavern and goes for him like a flash. His movement after getting the bait in his mouth, which he does the first time, is steady, dignified, and straight to the bottom. To the person handling the pole it feels as if a heavy weight sinking in the water had caught on the hook and was taking it to the antipodes. Giving the line a quick jerk you feel that the hook is fast, and haul in.— The fish comes readily, with his mouth wide open, making but little more resistance than a piece of wood of the same weight. His majesty, however, is preparing far a contest that will test your skill and tackle, so look out. The amateur thinks that as the pickerel comes in so easily,it will be an easy thing to land him. Therein the gentleman is misinformed, as he will soon learn.

As soon as the fish gets close to the boat, when his nose perhaps is parting the surface of the water, he gathers himself in real pickerel style, splashes the water in your face and dives to the bottom. If ycB

If the line holds the enraged pickerel will splurge around furiously awhile, t^nd then reluctantly come in.

were on our way back to Crown Point and Indianapolis, with two hundred pounds of fish, which a number of friends will testify came duly to hand.

If there is any better fishing anywhere, with the exception of trout fishing in noted localities, than in the small lakes of Northern Indiana, it is too good to be keenly relished by those who like genuine sport with the rod and reel. J. C. B.

THE ORDER OF RED MEN.

Interesting Sketch of its Origin and History—Its Design and its Present Extent. From the Detroit Free Press.]

The Secret organization known as the Improved Order of Red Men is but little known among the "pale-faces," as outsiders are technically denominated. It is In institution having for the corner stone of its faith Freedom, Friendship and Charity. It is rapidly spreading its branches throughout the United States, and has now three prosperous tribes or lodges in this city, all of which are of re cen testablisliment.

All the evidence that can be gathered touching the origin points to Fort Mifflin, on the Delaware river as the place where the first society was organized, and 1813 as the year in which the first "council fire" was kindled. None but soldiers were admitted it was designed for their benefit exclusively, civilians exercised no control over it, and were in no wise connected with it. It will be remembered that during this peried of our country's history, there were the war party and the anti-war party. Between these two factions there had arisen a bitter animosity, which spread itself in such a manner as to cause considerable alarm. It found its way into the army, and soon began to disseminate its demoralizing influence among the soldiers, and some of the officers proposed and effected the organization of the society above referred to, and fortified it by signs, grips and pass words, the object of which was to dispel discord and propagate friendship.

At the close of the war of 1812, the society in the fort was necessarily abandon ed, the volunteers being compelled to separate and return to their homes. But it seems that the principles inculcated by the society had made a lasting impression, and it was found, after they had resumed the peaceful pursuits of life, that they could not resist the charms of association, and many of them determined to effect a re-organization. Accordingly some time during the year 1817 a call was inserted in one or more newspapers in Philadelphia for a Council of Red Men, Which resulted in the organization of what was subsequently known as the Tribe of Columbia, of the Society of Red Men of Pennsylvania. But later, owing to a corroding element which was introduced into the society, the Tribe of Columbia, and all the branch tribes throughout the States, deteriorated to a great extent.

May 20, 1835, is considered the date which marks a new era in the history of the order. A complete organization was effected, which was brought about by a meeting of the Past Chiefs and representatives selected for that purpose, who convened in the old wigwam on Thames street, Fell's Point, Baltimore. At this meeting the Grand Councils of Maryland and of the United States were completely organized, and the hitherto Society of Red Men was announced to the world as the Improved Order of Red Men. Shorn of its political character, military successions and titles (which had before existed) were abandoned, and new ones adopted in their stead. In this reorganization no regard was paid to the fraternity elsewhere, and the Order, thus clothed with independent power and proper authority, started out into the world upon its broad mission of love.

It has undoubtedly .accomplished much good thousands of homes have been made happy through its ministrations, and many are filling high places of trust to-day, who perhaps never would have been known outside of the immediate community in which they lived, but for the good it wrought upon their hearts and the practical lesson it taught them. Its history is full of good deeds, and it now counts its membership by thousands. The order is the oldest benevolent organization of American birth and growth, and all the terms in use in it are taken from the Indian tongue, and in their workings the figures of speech peculiar to the Indian vernacular are retained. For instance, the presiding oflicer of the grand body is known as Great Sachem the secretary is Great Chief of Records the treasurer is Great Keeper of Wamjm, and the door-keeper is styled Great Guard of the wigwam. Time within the year is computed by moons, and a year is called a grand sun.
