Mine Washington corresMridenice of the Philadelphia Press we lerfn the diplomatic and consular approprla tion bill, which has been reported to the House, contains* provision remedying in abuse which has existed almost from the foundation of the Government. Heretofore this bill has contained an item of one hundred thousand dollars "for contingent expenses of foreign intercourse," and this fund has been known as "the secret serviqpa fond" of the State Department,JHow it Was expended has alwaj* been M*»yj&ery to the general pubUc, especially as it was known that appropriations for the salaries of all the ministers and consuls were made independently of this. Judge

New York, a member of the Committee on Appropriations, to whom the details.of the bill were assigned this year, took the. trouble to investigate just how much money was actually expended for the contingent expenses of our intercourse with foreign governments. He ascertained tljat last year it was about twenty-five U^usand dollars, and yet so accustomed has the department become-to making outtjhe estimate for this fund, that one fcnndijed thousand dollars was asked for as usual. The committee have agreed to appropriate fifty thousand, and,, judging from the expenditure of last year, this will jbe more than twice as much as will be neefes^ sary When the bill comes up for consideration, Judge

thirteen lines of railroads that

eenter in Indianapolis, and which reach out in everv direction, make her thegreat^ distributing point of the West, and here necessarily must be the great storehouse of the mineral and agricultural wealth ot the State. HSre, too, must be the great workshops that will convert these mineral resources, and the valuable timber, clay and other materials, into available wealth. It will be but a few years before the cheap fuel that lies at pur doors in almost illimitable quantities will make the atmosphere of Indianapolis more murky than Pittsburgh or Birmingham, and her manufacturers and commerce will make her the largest and most prosperous inland city of the continent.—JncK Sentinel.

We wish to slate distinctly, and emphatically, that Terre Haute has no jealousy of Indianapolis. On the "Contrary our citieehs feel a just pride in the growth and prosperity of our State Capital. But they fail to see that that city, comjparas tively remote as she is from the mineral region, "must, necessarily, be the great storehouse of the mineral wealth of.the State," or that there "must be the great workshops that will convert these mineral resources into available wealth.^ If the "cheap fuel" "lies at her doors," when those doors," are sixty miles from that "cheap fuel," what may be claimed for this city, almost surrounded as it is, bv the "cheap fuel"? In every important particular Terre Haute has superior advantages to Indianapolis, .as a manufacturing town. If the energy of the citizens of Indianapolis shall prove sufficient to counteract her disadvantages, and enable her to take the lead, we shall not complain. Bat we want our citizens to understand that Terre Haute has a better chance to achieve greatnefes as a manufacturing city than any other locality on this continent, and that it will be her own fault if she shall fail to do so.

Hamilton and Flanagan.

The Senators from Texas, have seats assigned them, side by side, in the northeast corner of the chamber. Flanagan sits immediately behind Revels between them the strongest possible contrast in appearance. The latter everyhody has read a description of. Flanagan is a tall me-dium-built man with light eyes, clear, ruddy complexion, and thin, very thin hair, Shading strongly towards^the au burn. I should judge him to be a man nearly sixty years of age, #nd possessing a pretty determined will. His colleague. Hamilton, is his very antipode in personal appearanc —short, wiry blapc hair, eves to match, p.ominent nose and ears almost perpendicular jaw bones, and a square-cut chin, encasing a .mouth expressive of a good deal of impetuous rirmnpsa. His skin is almost as black as that of Bevels, and there is considerably more of his head below than above his ears. In frame, he large and muscular. Taken both together, I think these two men very fair representatives pi their Texan constituency^! assign Hamilton to that portion of the people who did the rough work of hewing Texas out of the wilderness, and bringing her to the builders as timber fit for a place in the American temple one of your Sam. Houston sort of nren, who pees-bqt one thing at a time, and believes the way of accomplishment to be a very straight and direct one regardless of consequences. Flanagan take to be a type of the more refined civ ilization, wjuch is gradually creeping into the State of what used to be 'the South," probably not so practical and -direct a man as.-his colleague, but a man who, although proceeding by mors tortn ous routes, will eventually accomplish his purposes with as mucheertainty,and.perhaps more regardfor '.the feelings of his (foponents. -AH this, 4iowever, may tiirn out to be a bad guess, as appearances are often deceptive. The first time either of them attempts to speak in the Senate, he will find Ms level as surely as does the water in a frog pond.— Washington Cor. Oin., Chronicle.

The Funeral Cortege at Chicago— The Indiana Committee to hav Charge of the Remains Through the State, and will Attend the Ob sequies at Troy.

Special to the Indianapolis Journal.J

Chicago,

April

The Indiana Committee arrived here safely this morning. One hundred and twenty-five soldiers and citizens of Illinois, including General Sheridan and staff, went out twelve miles to meet the funeral car, which ar ri%ed at that point.*t four o'clock.

The .train then came into Chicago made up of three palace cars, all heavily draped. The locomotive was decorated with flags, and the head-light with a por trait of General Thomas.

About the depot, was collected one of the largest crowds I ever saw, which con ducted itself better than any.

salute of thirteen guns, .two compa nies of Zouaves, with a full military band, met the cortege at the depot.

Everthing passed off orderly and quiet ly. The bells tolled while the train was moving through the city limits.

The Indiana Delegation will take charge of the body at the State line to night, when General Love will present an address to Colonel Millard on behalf of the State.

Mrs. Thomas does not accompany the remains. The car in which they have been moved from San Francisco, and which takes them to Troy, is onerbuill at Jeffersonville. It is handsomely decora ted. Thecoffin is partly loaded with the most beautiful fresh flowers. Thedemonstrations along the route have been very touching The cortege will arrive at Troy on Thursday. The Indiana Com mittee will attend the funeral.

S" .-

All this grows directly and naturally out ofthe laws themselves. It is the inevitable result of the system by which tlie government of the United States regards crime as a source of revenue, and enters into partnership with professional spies, in speculating upon it. The whole method is a disgrace to the country, and ought to be blotted out of the statute book at once. It is this system that has ruined Collector Bailey. He was a man of bright parts and, before he b$gan to adminster these laws, of unblemished character.

Legal-Tenders,

The'effort to reopen the decisions of the United States Supreme Court, lately rendered upon the legal-tender question, and to have a rehearing, will not strike the public favorably. It is not pretended that the cases were not ably argued on all points, that there is any new law to present, or that anything has since occured to warrant the proceeding. No cases probably ever had more thoughfiil consideration. The only point seems to be that two new members have been added to the Bench, under circumstances to warrant the belief that they had pledged them •elves to outside parties to assist in revers ing the decision, in case they were elected and confirmed. We have been unable to credit this report, for, if true, it would certainly destroy their characters as ^unbiased judges, and manifestly unfit them to take part in a rehearing. We trust the Court will decline toreopen the subject the decisions already made were unques tionably correct, and ought not to be rlis turbed. Chicago Republican. i.rf

Commenting

on the sad case ofCollec

tor Baily, the New York Financial Chronicle argues that his downfall was the re suit of the system o'f revenue laws which inflict pecuniary fines as the penalty of crime, and divide these with the revenue officers as informers, thus making it thtf chief object of the officer to inform on great frauds, which make.* it the chief object of him to have great* frauds com mitted. And when he has discovered fraud, then the tempting question comes to him whether he shall treat with the guilty parties or give the information.— And he can make a surer thing by treating with the delinquent.

Croup, Hoarseness and kindrsd complaints, that has been upon the market in the past five years, I know of no otherin which I nave so great faith, and -the very large sale of the

Elixir" shows that it is being thoroughly appreciated. It is neatly-put up, is pleasant to take, and is both safe and reliable.
