Manday Morning, December 6,1869.

A New Programme.

Having kept onr readers posted as to the interesting fight

:1%lue,"

in the happy bosom

of the Democracy at the State capital, they need not be reminded that Major General JOHX. LOVE, late of the Indiana _Legion, and later of the "White Boys in

the

candidate of the HENDRICKS

men for the Chairmanship of the State -•(Central Committee, and that RICHABD J. EBIOHT, proprietor of the Sentinel, is the candidate of the PENDLETON faction for the same position. It will, also, be remembered that, at the Convention held

In Indianapolis a week ago last Saturday, to elect delegates to the Eighth of January Convention, the HENDBICKS "ring" squelched the PENDLETON faction, and decided upon General LOVE for the position above indicated. Since then the political pot of that beatific party has been in a

state

of in

tense ebullition. Everything has not beejn lovely, nor has the goose hung high. On the contrary things have been"mixed" and that celebrated biped has been prone in the dost

This lamentable condition

Under these circumstances it became obvious that a new candidate for Chairman of the Central Committee mu.it be brought out, and they cast about for a :man whose sagacity had enabled and would still enable him to retain the confidence of both the jarring factions a man who always carries a load of olive branches and a jug of ointment when he excurses among his political brethren, but who, nevertheless, knows how—and knows just when and where— to tumble the olive branches from liis shoulder, smash the jug aforesaid upon the head of a refractory brother, draw his weapon and suppress an insurrection. Did teliy find their man? This paragraph from the Journal ANSWERS the question:

Col. Thomas Dowling, of this city, is spoken of for Chairman of the next Democratic State Central Committee. That selection would be an excellent one.

Two years ago, Mr. DOWLING was retired from the State Central Committee to make room for ANDY HUMPHREYS! Now, it is proposed that he, Mr. DOWLING, in the character of Pacificator General, distributor of olive branches, bearer of unguents and soothing mixtures, shall take command of the feud-rent old party for the next campaign. When brains are in demand in that organization, when such far-reaching sagacity as DOWLING possesses, is called into requisition, its prospects will not be BO utterly and des perately. hopeless as they have been for some years past. When he takes the helm it will be a signal' for Republicans to go to work. A campaign against Gen. JOHN LOVE would be a simple affair compared with one against Mr. DOWLING, as Commander-in-Chief.

THE Terre Haute Express says that an indicament has been found against William Hedge for having passed counterfeit money. W. H. is

Jin a

bad predica

ment, sure.—Ind. Journal. The item which furnished

the Journal

so tempting an opportunity to display its excrutiating wit, made no mention of HEDGE'S "having passed counterfeit money." He was indicted "for having counterfeit money in his possession," and we BO stated, except that a compositor substituted a for in correcting proof. Typographical errors may be found in all newspapers, and the Indianapolis Journal is no exception to this general rule. We remember that we once saw in that paper, a ^Copperhead speech [of Senator NORTON attributed to Senator MORTON.—

We did not see any necessity for noticing the blunder, supposing it would be sufficiently annoying to the editor without giving it unnecessay publicity. And while we are on this very small subject— a business to which we would not have stooped but for the necessity of paying our Indianapolis cotemporary in its own small coin—we will present this specimen of lucid English IJJAM an editorial in that paper of the 3d inst:

We would suggest the "Young Eagle

the West," or 'nhe tall Sycamore of the Wabash," both of whom are "the little man," a small balance, &c.

IN CONSEQUENCE of the abrogation of the United States postal convention with France, our exchange of mails with that country will cease after the first day of January next. On letters for and from France by steamers running direct, the American postage will be ten cents per single rate of half an ounce, to be prepaid when sent, and collected on delivery when received on newspapers two cents each and on books four ccnts for each four ounces. Letters only may be sent in the open mail for England without prepayment. Letters now sent "by French mail" to other countries cannot be so sent after December 31.

THE draft of a law for taking the census of 1870 has recently been submitted to the Committee on the Census by the sub-com-mittee rppointed^o prepare the bill. The principal characteristics of the law are the establishment of a Census Bureau under the jurisdiction of the Interior Department -t he appointment by the President of a Commissioner of the Census, whose term, of office shall expire three yean from the date of his commission and the appointment by the Secretary .of the Interior of one Deputy Commissioner of the Census for each Congressional District. Th« time proposed for taking the census is the month of June. 1870.

THE great center of public interest, in this country, for some months to come, will be Washington City, where Congress meets to-day.

THE Ways and Means Committee has completed the free list of the new tariff bill. It will embrace about three hundred articles in addition to those on the list of existing laws," all of which it is claimed are not produced in this country and are used by our mechanics. Great care has been taken not to include in the list any article of luxury, and the object of the committee has been to relieve the neccessities of commerce. .1 iS,-i £l tU

THE New York Independent for December second—its 21st birthday— is the most interesting number of any journal that has ever come to our table. We say this in sincerity, meaning it in all fts fullest sense. The Independent has always been a prime favorite with us, and we do not understand how any intelligent family, in sympathy with the progressive spirit of the age, can be willing to dispense with its weekly visits.

of the Democratic camp. Un

like its illustrious progenitor, whose nocturnal vociferations preserved the Eternal City from the ruthless tread of the invader, it has been crestfallen, silent and sullen, rather inviting the hand of the destroyer than rallying the hosts of the "unterrified" to swear fealty upon the par? ty altar.

affairs at

the Capital has spread a feeling of alarm throughout the State, and the sachems of the tribe Democratic, with anxiety depicted upon their rubicund visages, and extra changes of raiment packed in their plethoric carpet-bags, have journeyed to Indianapolis to pour oil upon the troub led waters, to salve the wounds of their contused and lacerated brethren, and to "fix up things" generally. They found matters even worse than their fears had painted them. Where they expected "contention," they found war where they looked for "opposition," they found deadly hostility, intensified by bitter personal hatred, nursed and fed for years.

A STRANGE MEETING.

Husband and TVife, After Ten Years' Separation, Encounter eacli Other. #T' From the Kansas City Times, Nov. 28.]

Night before last (Friday) the up train on the MLsouri Pacific Railroad stopped long enough at the depot here for the FOL lowing scene to be enacted and witnessed: It was about 12 o'clock when the cars arrived the sleeping car was crowded, and its ocdupants were dreaming the

ladies'

car, next to it, had no seat unoccupied^ and yet a lady got aboard here who must find room somewhere to seat herself and rest a little. She entered this car from its lower end and walked probably half up the aisle without being invited to a place, when a middle-aged getleman, who had been lying upon a seat TO himself, suddenly rose and politely offered to share it with the lady. As politely accepting it, she sat down beside him. As the eyes of the lady became accustomed more and more to the light, and as ihey look in the features of the man beside her, she became violently agita'cd and exclaimed, in a painfully acute voice, as if suffering some mortal agony: "You here, my God, after so long."

The man was no less agitated on his part, and his lip3 worked nervously as he replied to her: "'Yes, we meet again, but under what circumstances You are on your way to meet your husband I to meet my wife. AH! Ellen, Ellen, it would have been better for both of us if we had never seen each other again since that cruel day when you left me." "And, George, did I not have a reason —A reason which no woman could have and live with you. But let the dead past remain buried. It is not good to touch it now."

Here is the previous history of that middle-aged couple who met under the shadow of a great sorrow at the Missouri Pacific Railroad depot, in Kansas City:

George A a young man, fifteen years ago, lived in the town of Harrodsburg, Kentucky. There he met, loved and married a young woman named Ellen Harrison- It was a love match, people said, and predicted for the future much joy and happiness, the husband being so generous and the wife so amiable.

A child came to bless them AS a flower ODmes to make the spring glad, grew sick, died and went to heaven. By-and-by the husband became careless, cold and indifferent. He drank more than he had ever done before, and sought at criminal places for smiles which before his wife had given him, and for comforts which before his home had been adequate

furnish.

His wife's friends interfered, too,, to widen a breach which might have been repaired, and one day, in a drunken frolic, he went traveling with a woman who was not his wife. A divorce followed.

In after years they both married again, and lived, the husband in Platte county, Missouri, the wife in Sioux City, Iowa. The meeting of Friday night was the first since their separation, nearly eleven years ago, and it will be the last, probably, this side that shadowy land where the waves of the river of death break upon an unknown shore.

Goug-h's Collection.

On one occasion I had made an appointment in a small town in Massachi HCtts, and, accompanfed HY A friend, I rode seven miles, and arrived at the church AS the people were assembling. Not knowing any one, I approached a plain-looking man and asked if there was to be a Iccture there. "Yas." ',Who is the lecturer?" "Gougli." "Can you tell me where I can-find the President of the Society?" "I spect I am the President."^' "Ah!* My name is Gough."

I "lectur'd" as well as I was able, and had no sooner taken my seat than I heard from below, "We'll now percede

They are peaceable in their nature, and are very partial to Americans, and it is believed that when education and the knowedge of the mechanic artsJball be diffused among them they will, before many years, work out the problem of civilization on the extreme northwestern borders of the continent.

"Wall, it's most time to go in." So we went in, and I sat in a pew till he came to me and said, "You'd better go in the desk." "Is there any one here to offer prayer?" I asked. "No the minister's away. "Is there no deacon?"

"I spect I'm a deacon." "Can't you pray?" "No 1 don't speak in meeting." As I passed into the desk, he stood below, and announced, "Mr.Gough is in the desk, and is going to lectur."
