TERRE SAUTE, INDIANA.

Thursday Horning, March 16, 1871.

Gov. CLAYTON lias just been re-elected to the United States Senate from Alabama. He is on his way to Washington.

THERE are so many courts and so much litigation at Indianapolis, that an importation of professional jurymen is demanded. This city can spare a equad without serious detriment to the public good.

ONES, the man convicted at Covington on Saturday last for the murder of JAMES HALL, at Attica, some time since, has taken up his residence at Michigan City "forlife."

THE Democractic journals of Kentucky are discussing the available candidates for Governor. Among those named are General D. C. BCJELL, JESSE D. BBIGHT, J. PBOCTOB KNOTT, (late Congressman,) and P. H. LESLIE.

THE Pennsylvania Kailroad Company's directors are to-day the most highly praised men in the land. A Buffalo paper, speaking of the company, aays of them: "There would seem to bejjjo end to the ambition of its managers, no bounds to their powers, and no limit to their suc-

FORNEY'S Prea* thinks, if the Government cannot protect its citizens in one section as well as another, under existing laws, it is about time that its powers should be increased, Democratic demagoguery notwithstanding. The Kuklux Klan is as much a disgrace to the Congress which allows it to exist as it is to the society which fosters and approves it

RJIODE ISLAND will hold an election for State officers on the 5th of April, and the Republicans are already in the field with a strong ticket. An exchange in forms us that the great question at issue in this little State is the question of trapping fish at the mouth of Narragansett Bay, which is depopulating the waters of its finny inhabitants.

WE ARE indebted to the Chicago Republican for the pleasing and useful infor mation that Mr. HORACE WniTE, having organized the House of Representatives on a Revenue Reform basis, by securing Mr. Speaker BLAINE'S pledge for a free trade Committee on Revolutionary Pensions, has returned to make glad the Tribune office, and brilliant the Tribune columns, with his genial presence and valuable services.

IN view of the fact that Kentucky has a stock of 2,352,405 gallons of whisky on hand, it has been wisely suggested that SAULSBURY and the other ex-members of the Congressional Temperance Society ought'to move down to Louisville and assist in reducing the accumulation. "Right smart" of the beverage"was used at Frankfort to defeat the Southern Railroad bill, but the supply continues equal to the demand.

J*.

A BOSTON PAPER- notes a coincidence worth mentioning. Mr. WEBSTER'S speech in the U. S. Senate of March 7th, 1850, caused the first rupture between bim and the Whig party. Twenty-one years have passed, and on the anniversary of that day another Massachusetts Senator occupied a position which has divided the councils of his party and created as great a sensation throughout the coun try as did Mr. WEBSTER'S famous speech.

Presidential Policy.

EDITOR EXPRESS:—When Andrew Johnson came into political life, it was the custom for Preiidentsand member® of Congress ta"fix np" flte policy for the respective parties, and the "fank and file" were expected to fall into line witM their leaders. In accordance with this practice, Mr. Johnson attempted to forestall public opinion, by getting up this policy for the reconstruction of the Southern States, and ostensibly to honor the grave of this lamented Douglass, lie made a tour through the £T!E Upon this journey he undertook to dictate to the free people of the great valley what course they should pursue, bnt finding them disposed to enquire into the merits of his plans, he treated them with contempt and clearly indicated that bis purpose was not to consult, but simply to inform them that he had decided the question and they had nothing to do but acquiesce. But before Mr. Johnson had completed his trip and returned to Washington, it was clearly manifest that the people of the great West were satisfied that both the President' and his poliey were a total failure.

Raised in the monntaim of Tennessee and elevated to power in turbulent times)' Mr. Johnson had little conception of what the press and the public school's had been doing Xor the masses of the peopleIt had not entered into his conception that they might have some notions of their own and would like to investigate a little before committing themselves to any line of polio/. This was the fatal rock upon which the Johnson administration split. lie ignored the fundamental principle upon which our government is founded, that Congressmen are delegated to make laws in accordance -with the expressed..will of the people, and the President shall execute them, whether he likes them or not. The people now claim the right to say what they want, and demand that their public officers shalll obey. ^Recognizing this great doctrine, President Grant started ont with the public declaration that he had no policy to urge in opposition to the will of the people. Nothing could have been more opportune or grateful than this announcement. We had been policy-ridden nearly to death and were greatly rejoiced that a plain? blunt, honest soldier had undertaken to execute the laws, without fear or favor that he had cut loose from political intrigues and would administer the affairs of his department according to his best judgment.

But alas! Our peaceful dreams are suddenly broken in upon by the sudden origination of a policy at tlie seat of government. We find our President quietly sending off a Lieutenant at public expense under the protecting guns of our navy, to negotiate a treaty for ah island in the ocean and the country is startled from Maine to Georgia, by the proposition to purchase San Domingo, assume its bonded debts and all other liabilities, eletf&te its mixed Spanish and African population to a perfect equality with citizens of the United States, and incur at once the expense of establishing a military force thereto keep, these quiet, orderly, peaceful people from cutting each others throats. In the name of common sense, what does all this mean?

Is it not time to inquire by what authority these things are done in thetotal absence of any public expressipn in their favor? If it be necessary that an.amendment to our Constitution^shall be sanctioned by a two thirds vote, is it not equally important that any increase or diminution of our territory should be approved in the same way Under this assumed power, a corrupt President and venal Senate, might bargain away the fairest portion of our country, and involve us in a foreign war without consulting the people or their representatives! It appears to me quite time for us to stop and consider where we are drifting,, before getting into interminable difficulties. W.J. B.

Good Advlcc.

The New York Sun, referring to the sanguine hopes just now entertained by the Democracy that the Republican party has.collapsed,,declares that "those Dem-, ocrats who.imagine that this controversy between GRANT and SUMNER has dealt a death-blow to the Republican party, and that they are therefore to win an easy victory in 1872, are deceived. "The Sun thon gives this good advice:

We advise the Democracy, therefore, not to be too jubilant over the great fight' in the Senate, but to husband*their resources, consolidate their strength, draw as many Northern Republicans into their ranks as possible, silence the Ku Klux Klan, conciliate the negro element in the South, prepare to bring out the strongest mar, and then they may stand a fair chance for success in the next Presidential campaign.

From the "Table Talk" of the Louisville Commercial, we clip this hint for our lady readers:

One by one the chignons fall and, cynic-like, we set and rejoice thereat with exceeding great joy. For a long time there has been seated at our table a young beauty, straight and tall like an Egyptian palm tree, her head set on her comely body, like a bright flower on its stem a wreath of chesnut hair shot with gold a Phydian nose and Attic forehead fair cheeks like the blush of the maiden rose, and Hps ruby as a cleft pomgranite. From afar we have daily worshipped her beauty, and thought if we were an artist how" we would yearn for her as a model. Still there was something which always marred the radiance of that beauty. Was the head disproportionately large? No as her calm, earnest ey*s met ours, respectfully raised, the tff)pf& of her wavy hair were each a net to catch our adoration.. As her profile was turned to us, the soft outline of her cheek alone suggested perfection. Still something was wrong an indefinable lack or an undue preponderance prevented the perfect harmony of her beauty. On a recent bright day, which was strany as her own glances, she came to the table with her beautiful hair gathered in a Grecian knot bUhind her pearly ears, and bound with a filet near her shapely head. Down near to the ends of the chevelure was a little plait tied with a colored ribbon with floating ends, while between the filet and the plait, the fall mass of her locks awdled in their native pride. The something was gone, and the perfection of harmony breathed over the .whole figure. Our artistic sense was fully gratified* The previous fault was explained. Can when

A pewter plate founded the Peelfam ily. Robert, in the poor country about Blackbufn, Seeing a large family grow ing up about Mm, felt that some source of income must be added to the meagre products of his little farm. He quietly conducted experiments in calico printing in hiis own home. One day, thoughtfully handling a pewter plate, from which one ofthe children had just dined, he sketched upon its smooth serface the out lines of a parsley leaf, and filling this with coloring matter he was delighted to find that the- impression could be accurately conveyed to the'surfaeea of cotton cloth Here was the first suggestion toward calico printing from metal rollers. The "parsley leaf on the pewter plate opened up a world of industry to Lancashire, and Sir Robert Peel to this day is called, in the neighborhood of Blackburn. "Pars ley Peel."

Don't say you have no chance, young man! You have the same chance, and better, than the world's- greatest and best men have enjoyed. "Men uniformly over rate riches and underrate tlieir own strength the former will do far less than we suppose, and the latter far more." "The longer 1 live,",says one of earth noble sons, "tlid more I am certain that the great difference between the feeble and the jjowerful, the great and the insig nificant, is energy—invincible determination—a purpose once fixed, and then, death or victory! That quality arill do anything than can be done in the world and no talents, no .circumstances, no op portnnities, will be worth much without it.

rVi, Somewlwt in Years. Last Friday "the 105th birthday of Capt. Lahbrush was celebrated at the res idence of Gen. Watts.de Peyston, in New York. Capt. Lahbrush was born in 1766, At forty years erf age he witnessed the destruction of the military power of Prussia by the Great Bonaparte at Jena, He witnessed the meeting of Napoleon and the Emperor Alexander on a raft at Tilsit,kat which peace was made between France and Russia. lie was one of Hie guard to watch the exiled conqueror of Europe at tit. Helena. He has witnessed the rise of kingdoms and republics Probably the experience of no man in all time has been more extensive and inter esting than that of this centenarian. He has been left for dead on the battle field cast up as dead by the ocean, stricken down for dead by the pestilence, and en countered all the shafts of mor.e than one hundred years, and yet his health and cheerfulness seem to have improved yvith time.—Cin.

A Taluindic Legend—The Creation of Woman. A prince once said to Rabbi Gamaliel "Your God is a thief! He once sur prised Adam in sleep and stole a.rib from liim."

The Rabbi's daughter overheard the speech and whispered a Word or two in her father's ear, asking his permission ta answer the singular opinion herself. He gave his consent.

Tiie girl stepped forward, feigning ter ror and dismay, threw her arms aloft in supplication and cried out, "My liege, my liege! Justice! Revenge!" "What has :happened?'r askci^ the Prince. .. "A wicked theft has taken place," she replied. "A robber .has* crept secretly into our house, carried away a silver goblet, and left a gold one in its stead." "What an upright thief!" exclaimed the Prince. ''Would that such robberies, were of more frequent occurrence!" "Beheld, then, the kind of a thief our Creator was! He stole a rib from Adam, and gave a beautiful wife instead," "Well said! avowed the Prince..'

VINNIE REAM is about to make a statue of Wm. M. Tweed, the "boss" of Tammany and the chief proprietor of the New York available Democracy. In view of his desert, a statue certainly looks like rather more adulation than the prince of plunderers could expect, but there is fitness in it for all that. Why shouldn't he be chiselled when he has "chiselled" every thing and everybody else in New York?—Ind. News.

The picking np of a pin in a street of Paris by a poor boy, as hewas going: from a great bank saddened at the denia of his application for a place, was the founding of the success and the prosper! ty of one of the great bankers of the queen city of the world. That simple act il iustrative of the economical spirit, was observed from the window the lac! was recalled at the Bame moment, Industry, patience and honesty did the rest.

The superior organisation and great extent of the Company's Works at Wallham, enables them to produce watches at a prico which renders competition futile, and those1 who bay any other watch merely pay: from 25 to 50 per cent, inoro for their watches than is necessary.

These time-pieces combino every improvement that along experienco has proved of real practioal use. Having had the refusal of nearly every invention in watch-making originating in this country or in Europe, only those were finally adopted which severo testing by the most skillful artisans in oar works, and long use °jn the part of the'public, demonstrated to' be essCntial to correct and enduring time-keeping.

Among the many improvements we wonld particularize:.' The invention and use of a ecritf-e-pinion of peculiar construction,.to prevent damage to the train by the Dreakage ot main-springs, is original-with-the American Watch Company, who, having had the .refusal of all uiuci adopted Fogg's patent pinion as being the best and faultless,

other contrivances inion as being the Hardened and tempered hair-springs, now universally admitted by Watchmakers to be the best, are used in all grades of Waltham Watches.

All Waltham Watches have dust-proof caps, protecting the movement from dust, and lessening the necessity of the frequent cleaning necessary in other watches.

Our new patent stem-winder, or keyless watch is already a decided success, and a great improvement-on any stem-winding wattfh in the American market, and by fai now offered ortions of

the cheapest watch of its quality to the public. To those living in the United States where watchmakers do not abounid, watches with the above mentioned improvements which tend to ensure accuracy, cleanliness, durability and convenience, must prove invaluable.

You HAVE ONLY, TO KABK DOWN YOUR OLD STOCK ABOUT ONE-HALF—GET RtD OF IT—BUY NEW GOODS AS CHEAPLY AS WE DO, and in selling them, BE CONTENT WITH A LIVING PROFIT, and the Sabbath-like stillness of your stores will soon be broken up by the same eager throng of customers that you so constantly meet at our establishment. Far better do this, than seek to bolster up a business "growing smaller by degrees and beautifully less," by slander and abase of us—for in this your customers are ftidingyou out. You make a great mistake when you think they are simplejninded as not to know for instance, that an Atlantic Mills Muslin is the same in your store that it is in ours. You are selling it at TEN cents a yard, and we are selling it at SIX cedts, but this neither makes you A nor ours any better or any worse.. It is the same Muslin still.
