THESE Radicals dare not rebel against the voice of the pebple.'—Journal. Very true! "These Radicals dare not rebel against the voice of. the people.' •That sort of thing'is a Democratic performance, not in tlie Radical line of busi ue.^. it was a Democratic Rebellion against the voice of the people" that brought on the late war with all the lior rors that followed in its train. Radicals believe in the right of the majority to rule,

Democrat? believe in the right of the Democratic party to control the country The difference is marked, and we thank the Journal for calling attention to it.— Let it be remembered that it is only the Democratic parly that "dares to rebel against the voice of the people!"

THE select few who enjoyed the pleas lire of listening toCouncilman FORREST'S address, on Tuesday evening, upon the question of his right to a seat in the Council, are convinced that Col. DOW' LINO'S monopoly of the oratorical busi nes-s of that body may be regarded as a thing of the. past. As a master ol'rhetori cal eloquence the new member for the Third Ward may safely challenge comparison with the old member for the Fourth Ward. Junior members of the Bar, and students at our literary institu tions, who desire to cultivates chaste stvle of oratorv, will do well to attend the regular sessions of our unique MunicipallLegislature.,

The Woolen Manufacturers' Exhibition. The Indianapolis Board of Trade is forwarding the following communication to all the woolen, cotton and flax manufacturers in the country:

The third Exposition of the Woolen Manufacturers' Association of the West and South will be held in this city, com mencing August 2,1870 and continuing four days. The objccts to be exhibited will be tactile fabrics, staples, of fabrics, materials used in manufacturing, and machinery employed comprising every raCt&al or artificial product directly contributing to or resulting from the manufacture of fabrics of wool, cotton, silk and flax. The Exposition will be held within the spacious Skating Rink in this city, than which there is no finer building for the purpose in the West. The objects of the Exposition are to make known the extent, variety and present condition of the manufacture of the taxtile fabrics in the West and South, and to show that it Jp not necessary for the American people,-and especially the people of the Mississippi Valley, to go abroad for any variety of material from which to manufacture^ particles of clothing. The preceding expositions held, the one at Chicago, Illinois, the other at Cincinnati, Ohio, have ,*-already exerted a powerful influence in atth.S ihg the attention of the public to the most important industry, and itis hoped that the fa iconifflg exposition will further educate the public, influence opinion, and prove a complete Buccess in every i-espeet. You can not estimate the vast importance to your future interest of making this exposition larger and more attractive than any previous one, which can only be accomplshed by the united efforts of every mpnufacturer andthe representation, by con ributors of every mill.

If Yon Have Handsome Clerks, Look Out for Yonr Unmarried Misters. From the New York Ann.]

A young Bowery dry goods merchant has a sister who has long been bependent upon him for support Sometime ago he took into his employ, as clerk, a good looking acquaintence, who soon began to pay »tl«ntion to th» aiatW) and theTomg couple naturally became mutually attach ed, the brother all the time suspecting nothing. A private engagement was made, and evefjrthin^'^ent on smoothly until one day last week, when the trade* man, noticing that his clerk had his mind on other matters, and was perhaps neglecting his business, remonstrated with him._'' High words followed, ancj the result WAS a dismissal.

Mr. Clerk, like all true lovers, was very tight in, the purse department, and scarcely lAe* l^hatUo^fo. At length a bright idea struck him. He hastened to the tradesman's sister, threw himself on his knees and beggeed her hand. And she consented. Away, without delay, to thq magistrate! And intjust isix hwfrs after the disihls^il the clerk be^me his late employer's brother-in-law. Now the cterfc itwHio means to supporter wff&, and the result «u that brother to save his sister from wWt Vss obliged to re-employ his former clerk at a good salary-

National and State Banks. The National Banking system has been in operation since 1863. During that time there has not been a failure involv ing the loss of a dollar to the bill-holder, From a published statement, it seems that fourteen of these banks have, failed to paytheir depositors, and fifty-four" of them have voluntarily surrendered their charters and retired their circulations The total number of these banks exceeds eighteen hundred.

Compare this with past State-bank systems. In 1836—7 eight hundred State banks, or all there were in the countr smashed up, and did not pay live cents oi a dollar of their outstanding notes. In 1857 there was another crash, followed by an additional one about the opening of the rebellion in 1861, in which a multi tude of these institutions went to the wall In fact, every year witnessed more or less banlc.fkilures, iQwhigg.biU holders and depositors alike suffered. Omitting few exceptional institutions, it may be laid down as a general proposition that there was no time when tne bills of any State bank stood at par all over the Union The traveler-.getting out of his State was rarely sure jot his funds, and was generally fleeced by a-b#tvy discount to pay his traveling exposes while business men w!r.e subjected ,to the same, toll on all commercial transactions. There was no system aboUt the currency. Bills were engraved with ^all kinds of devices, and printed on 11 kinds of paper, and a Bank Note Detector about the size of a City Directory was required to guard against counterfeits, giving very little protection at that. Th6 ordinary grade of this class of paper ranged from "Blue Pup" to "Sick Monkey," with exceptional case* reaching the' alevation of "Wild-cat. The war, which leveled so many things, disposed of this nondescript 'stuff, anc! substituted a currency equally available, and uniform in value, all over the coun try. Until the National Treasury breaks, this currency cannot be otherwise than what it is now. It has National honor stamped on its face, and meets the wants of business in all sections of the Union alike. Bankers, if so disposed, cannot now break, to the injury of the bill-holder, aud counterfeiting is reduced to the min imum. In every respect the National system is superior to the old State issues, and the people are completely secured.— Chicago Repubiicah.

And through the meshes gleamed the gold-

Bnt slowly turned the boatman way, And sadly took his ore in hand. Lovers should come for maids," he said.

Heavily swung the boat from land.

But naught festella saw or heard, Save twinkling lamp and chiming bells Nor heeded that the stars were pate,

And strangely dark the river swells.

The boat sped on and neared the shore Iter lover doffod his plume to see. And took heroutstretched hand and kissed

She dropped a golden coin, and ."aid Find, 0. Ferryman, here thy fee: Thou shoallst, indeed, be richly paiu.

A Terse Sketch of Barlingame. The truest thing that we have seen about the late Anson Burlingame's career is thus tersely given by "Warrington," of the Springfield Republican, who knew Burlingame long and well. "Warrington" says:

I saw him first in 1848, in his little seven by nine room in the old State House, where he pretended to practice law. E. P. Whipple was with him, and we tilted our chairs back against the wall and consulted together on free-soil ism. Some of as used to laugh at^hisspeeches, but they were wonderfully ellcctive to the ear, and no man was so popular in Faneuil Hall or in the country towns as he, except Sumner, who was infinitely stronger, and very eloquent, too, twenty years ago. Burlingame made no great headway in the Senate or in the Constitutional Convention. When the coalition went down in 1853, Wilson, Banks, Burlingame, and a lot of others who had no other visible means of support except by politics, were almost in despair. The temptation to lake up know-nothingism was too strong for them, and after provid ing for Gardner by making him Gover nor, Banks and Burlingame took a couple of the Congressional seats, and Wilson the Senatorship, dividing the spoils with such rubbish as I need not name. Wil son's activity saved him Banks' impos ing voice and manner persuaded the peo pie that he was indispensable and Burlingame went in on his luck. John Swift used to say, "The difference between Bur lingame and Wilson is that Burlingame never.g^ts' up and Wilson never goes to bed." And so our young orator went to Congress from a tough and difficult district and kept there three successive terms. It seemed that luck failed him in 1860, but he was defeated only to become Minister to China, and then Ambassador to the world. And so, instead of having Judge Kussell to deliver his eulogy, and a lot of his old political advo cates for his pall-bearers, he has Dr. Peabody and Dr. Briggs and Mr. Winthrop, two of whom never knew him and the third of whom liated'liim with the utmost cordiality. Such is the sad penalty of greatness. But we shall all remember Buningame as a thoroughly good fellow —a man who did yeoman servicc in the good cause, and after all, a man of real diplomatic skill.

Two Kinds of Jotirnalisih. It is singular to note the marked difference between the tone of the New York journals toward each other, and thatjof newspapers in other parts of the country toward rival publications. One would imagine from reading the New York papers that their conductors were savages, who went about the streets armed and ready to scafp the man who had last abused them. Yet these persons meet together, shake hands, and even chat pleas antly with each other. Imagine the .editor of the Traveller in our city calling the editor of the Journal a rascal, and then taking him by the hand to appease the wrong. Imagine the editor of the Courier calling the editor of the Advertiser a thief, and then inviting him to dinner and making him swallow his indignation with his victuals. No—a different kind of journalism exists here. The editors are more gentlemanly and more considerate toward each other than they are in New York or anywhere else. Besides, they don't like to mention each other's papery because each imagines the rest of the world ignorant of his neighbor's exist ence, and does not wish to give him the benefit of advertising. Journalism in Boston is conducted upon a safe and sure basis.—Boston Times.

'''Mrs. Clem Again.

A correspondent who has recently interviewed Mrs. Clem in the penitentiary at Jeffersonville, writes as follows lo the Indianapolis

Journal:

"During my visit

to Mrs. Dixon's department I took occasion to interview Mrs. Clem briefly. Prison life and hope deferred are, in their combined influence, wearing upon her somewhat. She affects chcer'ulncss and converses freely, but there is a tone of sadness in her voice and a shade of melancholy on her countenance which leaves the impression that her smiles but lightly cover a fountain of sorrowf.il tears. "I felt quite sad'on leaving her presence, and reflected that with the doubt ot her guilt—or if that is thought too strong, then the possibility of her inno-cence—-all must admit that is a fearful responsibility which rests upon the Supreme Court should they refuse a new trial, as she is confident she will be able to make a niuch better defence than on the trial that resulted in her conviction.

MAZZINI, the Italian revolutionist and nthusiust, has become discouraged and disquieted w(tb the world, and said that he wonld give np all that is left to him if he could obtain a year's quipt before death to write a book giving hts true views about the world as it is and the future. Cut he cannot get rid of the re sponsibilities that crowd upon him as the revolutionary leader of Europe. So we are not likely to have the book.

PRINCE DEMIDOFF, the Russian* who died the other day, was a great admirer of America. In 1864 he visited our frigate Princeton at Oibralter and was received with a ."alute, in which Thomas Dennis, a lWou sailor, had both arms blown off. The Prince, connidering himself the indirect though innocent cause of the accident, settled on the unfortunate an annuity of $80 payable in advance at Philadelphia.

Dry Goods ands Carpets

Ever offered outside of our Stores in New York City, except it may. be at Fort Wayne, in this State, where we are now doing the 1 argent business done by any iirm this side of Chicago, We come among you

IN THE FULL PLUSH OF VICTORY,

For having met the combined strength and opposition of the high priced merchants in Fort Weyne, and triumphed, we naturally feel thai we are invincible, and that from the day we open, our Store here will be as they are now in Fort Wayne and New York—the great resort of the people for the best of goods at the lowest prices.

With four Stores all doing a large business, buying goods in immense quantities for cash, we hazard nothing'in saying we come to retail goods here at prices that will be often much less than any other Terre Haute Merchant buys them. We come to plant the New York market fair and sqnare in Terre Haute, and to give to the people, ALWAYS FOB CASH ONLY, an immense amount of Dry. Goods at about one half the prices charged by other stores. ,, y, Vsiiti (Extract from a Fort Wayne Paper.) "We understand that Foster Brothers, of New York City, will soon open a large Dry Goods and Carpet Store, at Terre Haute, in this State. If the people of that place knew what we know they would not buy one dollar's worth of goods until the new firin arrives. When they opened here two years ago, such was the demand for their goods, and so terribly low were their prices, that before 11 o'clock A. M. of the first day, their Store was crowded so full of customers that it became necessary to lock their doors, and refuse admission to the vast crowd oatside. It was astonishing Nothing like it had ever before been seen in the State of Indiana."

We shall play the same'game here. Within the last few weeks there has been one of the most terrible depreciations in Dry Goods and Carpets ever known to the mercantile community. The failures of Dry Goods Houses in New York have been numerous, and thousands of dollars' worth of Goods have been sold for what they would bring. For the last three weeks we have been carefully selecting from the*immense purchases of our New York Stores a share ot

at these forced sales. This enables us to say that we shall offer on the hrst day that we are o»en for business, the best bought and most inviting Stock of Dry Goods and Carpets ever offered in the West, with almost everything ai 40 per cent, less than the rates other Stores are charging. Therefore we say ui Cr/£'

Do not buy a dollars's worth of Dry Goods or Carpets
