arc making no predictions,

but heretofore prominent radicals saf we will carry the county next October by several hundred majority.—Journal.

Whenever an election is pending, ocratic papers are always filled with ^udi stuff to the above. The less chance there i» of their snccess.the louder they blow their horn. It is the old story of the boy

"whistling aloud to keep his courage up while going through a graveyard. The Democratic party has been tramping through its own graveyard for lo! these many years, and has become an adapt at whistling. In that graveyard lie buijied a—very deep—the glory and honor of the party—all that ever gave it aright to exist, all that ever made it worthy of respect. I

But who arc these "heretofore prominent Radicals," who "say" such pleasant things for the Democratic ear? Can the Journal name them? If there are anjj $ that class who have gone over, bag 4nd baggage, body and breeches, to the Democratic camp, and will come out boldljj on that side of the house, we shall ^r^pjetft their candor ajod fairness. Such enepjies are not dangerous, for one knows jpst where to find them. But if any mari is base enough to profess to be a Republican, while doing all that he can to help the Democracy, he t« dangerous and should be spotted. A traitor in the camp is the worst and meanest of all enemies. ,In war, such a scoundrel is promptly execute in politics his punishment is univjersal execration. It is

recent decision of the l). S. Su

preme Court in the case of the

UNITED

KEELER,

is an additional de

claration against the pretense thatfflie Government set up under the Rebellion was" a de facto one.

KEELER

was a Unit

ed States Postmaster before the war, apd owed money to the Government at tjhe outbreak of the Rebellion. This amount he paid over under the order of the Recalled Confederate States to another person, and now that he is sued for the bjil« ance due from him to the Post Office Department, he endeavors to set upus a aethat the act was done under the authority of the Confederated Stages. The Supreme Court declares that the Socalled authority was no authority that it had not the character bf a de facto Government, and that Mr.

KEELER

"mtist

Settle." Tliese declarations are impcjrtant. If a contrary view of the case had been taken the Rebellion might h^ve been considered a speculation, whichj to many would have made treason profitable.

Virginia House of Delegates has

passed a resolution substantially to the effect that it is inadvisable to elect to .office any person disqualified under the provisions of the Fourteenth amendment. A Washington correspondent states that this- resolution, which is somewhat at varianve with the views of a majority of the members of that body, was pushed through in respect to a suggestion in Governor

message, that if dis

qualified persons should be elected a resolution should be passed in each case asking Congress to relieve such disqualified person of his political disabilities. The resolution passed by the House oif Delegates will be something of a damper

(on

the aspirations of many prominent exConfederates, who had expected to monopolize a majority of the State and county offices after the restoration of the State to the Union.

THE

Chicago Republican does not ap

pear at "all distressed at the discovery that "the Hoosier Democracy are in a pretty fix. At their State Convention, last month, they adopted a platform, the tenth plank of which denounces negro suffrage and protests against the vote of the State being counted for the Fifteenth Amendment. The amendment has since been ratified by a sufficient number of Stales, and the Secretary of State will speedily declare it a part of the Constitution so that all the negroes in the State will vote at the election in October! 'Here's richness!' This is a dilemma unlooked for. The Democrats can't retract their platform, and so the negroes will be unanimously against them. This is only one more of those vivid illustrations that the Democratic party is always furnish ing, that the way of ftie transgressor is bnrd."

should understand tfiat the'

people arc in earnest in their demand for the abolition of the franking outrage. If the honorable gentlemen at Washington prefer to Jcouple with* that measure an insult to their constituents, let them do 80 but at all events they must do away with the national nuisance. And the sooner they complete the job, the better.

GOVERNOR BULLOCK

thinks the acts

passed by the Georgia Legislature of '68 and '69, not of a political nature, are per' fectly valid, as shown by the fact tha| Georgia bonds Bell at higher rates than those of any other Southern State, and that the bonds of railroads, indorsed ttn der the legislation of 1868, are selling at full value.

that the manufacture of iron in Indiana is an extra hazardous and losing experir ment," we have to say that your are "rebutting" a phantom of your own creation. The

has never "given currency

to" any such "statements." They are your own ivention and show a painful absence of common fairness, not to say honesty. We have said that the pig iron business, anywhere and everywhere, is attended with heavy risks. This is true, as universal experience proves^ ^Furnaces^ however carefully constructed, are liable to accidents' that no forethought can guard against, and these accidents necessitate large expenditures of money. For this reason aapitalists will insist upon a handsome margin for profits,' or they will keep their money out of the business. 3. We agree with you that Indiana makes better iron and cheaper than Pennsylvania," not as we shall take occasiorito maintain heieafler but as we have maintained heretofore, its we still believe, and shall omit no opportunity of showing at any time. The fact that Mr. CRAWFORD,

a Pennsylvania iron-maker,

has m^de large investments in furnaces in this State, and still continues to puthis money into the irpn business here, is the strongest evidence of ilia faith in Indiana's facilities for the successful prose cution of that great branch of industry— a branch that, next to agriculture, is to be our dependence for future growth. 4. It is gratifying to know that ou?^philanthropic contemporary is •''interested in the development of the State, rather than the enriching of half a dozen iron masters." That is a sentiment that does honor alike to the head and heart of its author. It sounds well., It rounds off the-paragraph and concludes the article irt good style, with a neatly put appeal to labor as opposed to capita,!.* But, if it will not be too much trouble to the editor of the Journal, will he condescend to enlighten his readers as to his plan for "the development of the State" without "enriching' Iron Masters?" When lie will give us the details of that plan, we shall, if we think it feasable, gladly unite with him in its prosecution tp, a successful issue. By all means let us sacrifice the "Iron Masters" if, by so doing, we can promote "the development of the State: ....

ANOTHER ENOCH ARDEN CASE.

A German Reappears After Thirteen Years' Absence and Finds His Wife Married to Another Man. From thc St Louis Republican, Feb.14.]

A case'has been developed in this city which illustrates how fully within the bounds of the possible was the sorrow of Tennvson's Enoch Arden. About 13 years ago a German named Koop, left St. Louis for the Western El.Dorado.to se6k his fortune. In order to be completely unembarrassed, he left his family behind him, consisting of his wife, a handsome young woman, and four sons. His. adventures in California were varied' and exciting. He may not have forgotten the wife of his bosom and his children, but, at all events, he ceased to write, and, as the years roiled on, arid no word came from the wanderer, his friends conluded that he was dead. His wife, doubtless through dark passages of grief, arrived at the same conclusion, and she no longer sorrowed as without hope. A blooming widow is seldom without friends, and in the nature of things no feminine could hardly be expected to everlastingly mourn 6ver a dead husband when there is a living one to be had. In course of time a respectable German named Louis Kriegar, well known as proprietor of a toy stand, which he has carried on for the past ten years, at the corner of Fourth street and Franklin avenue, proposed honorable marriage to the supposed widow and was accepted, and they were duly united about three years after Koop had disappeared from the scenes

Years passed on and nothing occured to mar the happiness of the Kneger household. One of Koop's son's died, and the three others advanced toward manhood and became able to take care of themselves. During these years, the blessing of heaven was bestowed on the second marriage in the shape of three children. Whether or not Mre. K. had any visions in winter nights of her vanished first love does "not appear. Most probably not, for surely she felt assured of his mortal extinction ere she surrended herself to second wedlock.

New comes the -Enoch Arden part of the business. After 13 years absence Koop has recently reappeared on the scenes. Having had reasonable success in California, he came toSt. Louis-to took, after his wife and children. He soon learned the positiono&ruattera, and wae doubtless somewhat surprised. Being,, however, a practical and sensible man, he did not pursue the course of Tennyson'p hero. W .- l"Beating it upon his'weary brain A Astho' it were the burthen of a song, 'Mot to tell her,

He detennined not to disturb the happines of his wife, but he insisted upon having his children. Asjthe boys

JoSk JWcfJate in the afternoon ofy%^rday weck,jik^as ^«fwere going to pegatL Che particulars are about as follows

At the time mentioned, the case in progress was that of Catherine Miller, who aped by her next friend, C.- W. Gil jnore, vs. JohnS. Mace and others, tjbesnit being brought tjo recover household goods levied upon as belonging to Thomas Miller (Mrs. Miller's husband) and which the plaintiff claims, as hers.

Mr. Miller was ori the.stand tiearly all day Thursday, and subjected to a rigid examination, in the course of which he testified, in effect, that he was not possessed of any property at the time of or since Kin ^marriage—that the capital and property used by him was his wife's.

On Friday afternoon Mr. M. was again called to the stand to undergo cross ex* amination by M. L. Clark, Esq., in the hou=ie of which the later gentleman, in endeavoring to show a diacrefMugr tween Mr. Miller's present statttpeiits and those made some time since, wkfd he had not several years ago, stated Mr. W. H. Keed that he was then worth quite a large sum of money. The answer to this was. rather indefinite—that he might or might not have sortated, ljut if he did the meaning WM that he worth said sum outside of his indeb^tedHess to his family. Mr. Clark then if, since his marriage, he had not become surety on the bond of a certain goveilnment official. After a little heMtancy an affirmative answer was givffl whereq counsel wished to know if the witness not, at that time, swear that he was worth $60,000.

To this query, no reply was inade, apd for a few moments a deep and sudden silence ensued. Finally, Mr. Minshall,of counsel for plaintiff, broke the O silence bv

at that moment Mr. Milter, who «jaB standing just in front of the jury ro^m door, turned to the Judge and said? "May it please your Honor, I wish to make a few remarks," and immediately ter clasped his hands W his head and claimed: "I feel—-as if—X was gettinj paralysis of the brain" and commeni sinking to the floor,uttering such prayer! ejaculations as "Lord, have mercy on my soul O, Lord, bless me, and pardon my sins!" sc.. or words to that effect.

Before /eiching the floor he was caodH in the arms of persons near by, and carroom. On reacha gentleman apwhom he said had endeavored to ruin him, and he made an effort ti ^et hold of the person, but was prevented.

We have not attempted to depict the absolute frightfuliiess of the scene, pg that would be impossible. Those present have no desire ever to see another like it. In all his years at the bar and on tn bench, Judge Dickey avers that he never beheld any thing equal to it.

It is thought the strain to which Mr Miller's mind had been put during the proceeding day or two, and the excitement consequent thereupon, tended to a temporary unsettlemeftt of his reason, re? suiting as above.

He was confined to bis bed several days after the attack.
