Mr.. REVEL?, the colored Senator from Misr-issippT, will lecture in Dayton next Monday evening, on The Tendencies of the Ago." ".'"

THE Cincinnati Times accuses the Chicago Times of having gone into the congenial business of advertising prostitute?, name with complimentary descriptions of their charms. That is "Society Gossip" with a vengeance.

,NEW ESGLAND is preparing to celebrate in grand style "Forefathers'Day" on the 21st of December, which will be the two hundred and Fiftieth anniversary of the landing of the Pilgram Fathers at Plymouth. The descendants of the grim old Puritans who planted the first germ of pure Democracy on American soil, have not been proof to modern corruptions, and abandoning the traditional customs of their fathers, will revive their memories around a festive banquet board.

Den exchange* mention a case, decided recently in Pontine, the county seat of Livingston county, Illinois, which is not without interest. The testimony of a well-to-do merchant of that neighborhood was objected to by an opposing counsel, on the ground that the witness was an atheist, disbelieving in future rewards or punishments. This the witness admitted, but affirmed at the same time that lie considered an oath binding on him, Judge Woon decided that, under the Constitution of Illinois, no one could be denied any civil right or privilege on account of his religious opinions. lie, therefore, admitted him to testify.

A UTAH CORRESPONDENT of the Chicago Tribune furnishes some interesting facts about the mine in that Territory. He says that the Emma mine, at Little Cotton Wood, has been producing twenty tons of ore per day, the net value of which is $2,500, while ten tons of ore"* taken from the lobe at East Canon produced clear of all expense, $6,164 40 gold. At Meadow Valley, with very inadequate milling facilities, from five to ten tons of silver bullion per month are produced, of a net value of $30,000 per ton. Ilingham Canon has produced $60,000 worth of gold dnst during the past three or four years.

THE United States Court of Utah has decided that a polygamist, being also an alien, is not eligible to naturalization, and cannot, therefore, become a citizen of the United States. This decision is under the provision of law requiring that when an alien applies for naturalization the Court must be satisfied "that he is a man of good moral charaetcr, attached to the principles of the Constitution of the United States, and well-disposed toward the same."

The Cincinnati Times remarks that "should this view be sustained by the higher Courts, the problem of poligamy will be solved. Very few in a few years will have courage to stem the tide of public scorn and the contemptuous denial of citizenship. If this principle of the law could be somewhat extended it would be a good thing. Were every man convicted of adultery to be decitizenized, we take it that almost all the virtuous wives of the nation would be more reconciled to the Government as well as many of them to their husbands."

AMONG the new lecturers and lecturcs is ex-Governor IIAWLEY, of Connecticut, and "The Duty of American Gentlemen in Politics." It is an essay upon the politics of the day and the state of the nation. It is full of good common-sense advice to voters, of which the following extract may be taken as a fair sample:

Just and honorable mei who seek oftice for the purpose ofhonestly serving their constituents, and who intend to do what is best and proper for the public good are to be commended and should receive our hearty support. The character of the men who arc seeking office is such that good men are frequently driven from the tield and will not sutler their names to be proposed. Such has been the state of things in France until within a short time. It was this state of things which kept Trochu from his present place. When honest men, men who will not accept a bribe when urged upon them with a promise of moneyed support in future, repel all these tempting oilers, they are deserving of, and should rcceive, our hearty support. Avoid especially those men who say there is no virtue.in politicians. Such men would only strive to make you rotten and bringyou down to their own level. Mankind are better than they seem, as is proved by those thousands of our boys who went boldly into the battle to fight for their country's salvation. The future of our country is full of great and sublime hope as well as unforseen dangers. We are entering upon the oldest and the best of times, but it is yet only the cock-crow-ing time in civilization. Let our young men, and women too, for we know not what they are coming to, go out and prepare themsevles for their sacred duties.

THE New York Pott is one of the foremast advocates of free trade and revenue reform. And holding this position it says: "The Republican Revenue Reformers and Civil Service Reformers do not mean to leave the Republican party. They are not the kind of men to affiliate with Fernando Wood, Hoffman, Pendleton, Yoorhees, Yallandigham, and such men, who lead and control the Democratic organization. They would not feel at home in such company." The movement to disorganize the Republican party is a palpable failure.—Tnd. Journal.

The Canal Bonds.

The Indianapolis Sentinel publishes this, in the shape of editorial comments on an article that recently appeared in the New York Tribune:

Xo doubt the holders of the canal bonds would be exceedingly happy if they should be recognized by the Slate as jnst debt, and provision made for their payment, but it is hardly probable that these wishes will be gratified. The people of Indiana, almost, if not unanimously regard the compromise of 1846-7 with their creditors, as an adjustment or settle inent o: the debt then due, and this view of the case is strengthened hv the fact that the overture for the settlement then made came from the creditors, and the State has complied with all the obliga tions she assumed in that arrangement No doubt that compromise was beneficial to the State, and we can also say that was none the less so to the bondholders There was danger of bankruptcy repudiation, for the people of the State felt, and acted upon the convic tion, that they could not, as they had not done for several years, pay the interest upon the bonds. The arrangement propos ed by the creditors, and which was carried out, revolutionized the financial affairs of the State, The cloud that had hovered over the finances of the State passed away, and the sunlight once more ap peared. This act disenthralled the State from her pecuniary embarrassments, and prosperity and progress once more smiled upon her. And the bondholders have got all that was promised them. They took the Wabash and Erie Canal, and its appurtenances, for what they considered them worth, and if they have turned «ut worthless it is only an evidence of mista ken confidence, or error of judgment on the part of the representatives of the bondholder. The compromise of 1866 between the creditors and the State will stand.

Upon the editorial from which the above is taken, the Indianapolis Journal comments thus:

The Sentinel steps around the "Canal Swindle" question very gingerly. While it was trying to make votes for the Dem ocratic State ticket during the canvass this fall, it talked out with some show of boldness, and called the 6cheme by its right name. It declared that it was swindle, that Gov. Morton and other leading Republicans were favoring it, and that the Journal was also in the ring.— Since the election it has ceased its oppo sition, and gives up its editorial columns to the reproduction of articles prepared by the canal swindlers, and published in the New York City papers, and calls the swindle "The Canal Debt." Yesterday it published a long argument in defense of the villainy, which first appeared in the New York Tribune. The Sentinel, in in troducing the article says:

The Tribune publishes the article or communication without a word of com ment, or expressing either its approval or condemnation of the view it advocates, and urges as a conscientious obligation on the part of the people *of Indiana, the assumption and payment of that debt.

Just how the Tribune could publish the article "without a word of comment" and at the same time urge "as a conscientious obligation on the part of the people of Indiana the assumption and payment of that debt," we are at a loss to understand. After indulging in a half column of weak twaddle about the legislation of 1846 and the views of the writer in the Tribune, the Sentinel adds:

In order that the people may see what are the claims set up by the holders of the canal bonds, we reproduce the Tribune' article without note or comment.

If the half column of editorial which precedes the article copied from the Tribune, is neither "note" nor "comment, what is it? We are not without hope that the Sentinel may yet be smoked out into open and declared hostility to. the whole scheme, and we would not be much surprised if, before the Legislature adjourns, it advocates the plank of the Republican State platform which calls for an amendment tothe constitution prohibiting further legislation on the subject..

The Terre Haute Journal copies the Sentinel's article, with this comment: If there was ever any doubt about the Sentinel's position in regard to the swindle, the above sets that paper right.

Josh Killings on Marriage. Sum marrv bekausc they have been

marry

highsted sum whare else this iz a cross match, a bay and sorrel pride may make it endurable.

Sum marry for love without a cent in their pocket nor a friend in the world, nor a drop of pedigree. This looks desperate, but it i: the strength or the game.

Sum marry bekause tbev think wmini in will be scarce next year, and live to wonder how the crop holds out.

Sum marry to set rid of themselves, and discover that the game was one that two could plav at and neither win.

Sum marry the second time to get even, and find it a gambling game. The more they put down the less they take up.

Sum marry to be happy, and not finding it, wonder where all the happiness goes to when it dies.

Sum marry, they can't tell wliv, and live, they can't tell how. Almost everybody gets married, and it is a good joke.

Sum marry in haste, and then sit down and think carefully over it. Sum think carefully over it fust, and then sit down and marry.

Both ways are right if they hit the mark. Sum marry rakes to convert them. This iz a little risky, and takes a smart missionary to do it.

Sum marry coquetts. This is like buying a poor farm heavily mortgaged and working the ballance of yure days to clear oph the mortgages.

But, after all, married life is full az certain az the dry goods bizziness. Kno man kan swear exactly whare he will fetch up when he touches calico.

Kno man kan tell jist what calico has made up its mind tew do next. Calico don't even kno herself.

Dry goods ov all kinds iz the child ov circumstansis. The man who stands on the bank shivering, and dassant, is more apt to ketch cold than him who pitches hiz head fust into the river. -Ifennvbody asks you whi you got married ^if it needs be) tell him yu don't rccotlci:t.

Marriage iz a safe way tew gamble—if yu win, yu win a pile," and if yu loze ennything, only the privilege of living dismally alone and soaking vure own feet.

ceived thirty dollars for the same timber that under the opposite policy he was obliged to pay ten dollars to get rid of! Does any man fail to see that, the additional value given to that timber was not merely for the farmer, but was for this whole country, so much added to our wealth by the protection policy, and so for millions more of acres? That value was created bv building up a demand for timber in the neighborhood where it grew. You could not have drawn it fifty mile3 without destroying that value. It was only by bringing a market to it. that its value could be created. When I found that I had on my land a large amount of the shrub known as laurel—sometimes called rhododendron—I began to inquire'1 since I wished to get rid of it, whether I could sell it for anything, and 1 found that there wa.s a factory fifty miles away that would buy it for §G a cord, but as there was no factory near me it was worth less than nothing.
