interesting article on the San Dorningo report is printed in another column.

THE

April

THE

of Republican bal

lots in Connecticut has acted as a dampener of Democratic ardors -%f$i r\

ACCORDING

to our dispatches, this

morning, there has been a pretty lively little battle in San Domingo.

THE

loyal people of the North are de

termined that life and liberty shall be once more sacred at the South. ,7J' TUB old School Board of New Albanyj Mess. Newland, Syman and Swift, has lcen re-elected for another term.

Ous Statu Capital has a sensation in high life: The Duchess of Stringtown desires to be divorced from the Duke.

tion, held on Wednesday, foot up about as u«ual. Democracy has no show in "Little Rhody."

THADDETTS STEVENS,

Is Cleveland and Evansville, leading Democrats, disgusted with the Democratic rule, worked and voted against the nominees of their own party.

THE

neatest rebuke of "coldness" we

have seen for along time is that of a musical critic, who says Miss Kellogg sings "Home, Sweet Home" as if she boarded at a hotel.

New York Sun says a School

Trustee in the Seventeenth Ward of that city is a resident of New jersey. This is extending the Tammany Ring with a vengeance.

THE

Gloucester (Cape Ann) papers say

the fishing season on the Georges, just closed, has been the most successful one the fleet have had for some years bat supplies are light and good prices are obtained.

THE

mail service between Louisville

arid Lexington, Kentucky, has been restored. A premature announcement to that effect was made some time ago, but we believe this is reliable.

COL. THOMPSON

SAYS

Philadelphia Inquirer mourn«

nver the afflictive report from Mexico that the present diplomatic representa* live of the sistei Republic at Washington is to be superseded by Senor Romero This change must be regarded with the liveliest feelings of alarm by our people fctr what the irrepressible and loquacious *-G^orge Francis Train is to peripatetic politics, Romero is to diplomacy.

IwNew York a lawyer has been 'fined fifty dollars (or attempting to extort twenty-five dollars from an unwilling client by false representations as to the effect of a writ, threatening him with six months' imprisonment would have been the least punishment due the lawyer, but the judge, who doubtless knew better thought not, and mulcted him according to his judicial view of the magnitude or littleness of the offence.

THE

great grounds well for| which the

Democracy have been looking for so many years, and which they think has begun to manifest itself every time they elect constable in a doubtful prednct, does not exhibit, itself very vividly in the April elections. The hiss of the Copperheads warmed into vitality by a genial blast from New Hampshire, has aroused the loyal North. ,i:

ALLUDING

ONE

to Mr. Garfield's speech on

the Ku-Klux bill, the Cincinnati Chronicle says he may labor as he will, he can not please both sides on this question. If he means general amnesty and free license to organize anew rebellion, it better to say so, instead of 'attempting to emasculate the pending bill. There ought to be a united Republican vote in favor of strong measures, and whoever interposes himself between the uplifted blow and the Ku Klux Rebels will not thereby commend himself to the people. There is no relish out this way for milk and water.

of the best paragraphs ever written by President Grant is that in his San Domingo message in which he says: "The mere rejection by the Senate of a treaty negotiated by the President only indicates the difference of opinion of the Government, without touching the character or wounding the pride of either, but when such rejection takes place simultaneously with charges openly made of corruption on the part of the President of the United States, or those employed by him, the case is different indeed. In •uch a case the honor of the nation de mands an investigation. I his has been accomplished by the report of the Commissioners herewith submitted, which fully vindicates the purity of the motives and action of those who represented the United States in the negotiation. And now my task is finished, and with it ends all personal solicitude upon the subject. My duty being done, your's begins, and I gladly hand over the whole matter to the judgment of the American people and their representatives in Congress assembled."

fka Itldihfilpdlls ttotfiitijl bt yesterday were completely "showed under" with the Sail Domingo report, and only got apart of it at that. A patient perusal of the document reveals nothing new, nothing of importance that liad not previously been given to the reading public. The government of Dopinica, the history, climate, soil and products of the country supply themes for a number of essays that the Commissioners have worked up in tolerably good shape, but almost any cyclopedia furnishes matter quite as interesting to the general reader. That it is a magnificent country,-capable of a great variety and immense quantity of valuable products, was known to most persons of ordinary intelligence long before the Commission visited it. And no honest man—unless he was very ignorant —ever believed that the President had any "speculation in his ey.es" in looking towards that beautiful isle and desiring to add it. to our national domain.

a nephew of the

'Old Commoner," has been nominated by the Republicans of his ward for a seat in the Indianapolis Council.

Tribune thinks the care which the

rising generation receives in Boston, and in Massachusetts generally, is extraordinary. A Committee of the General Court is now considering the expediency of a law prohibiting minors from attending any theater or other place of amusement unless accompanied by their patfiWU Or guardians. The proposed law may in some respects be a good one but if a:boy of nineteen or twenty (perhaps we slioqld gay 3 voung man) is not to be trusted to go alone to the play-house, *t what period of life is it probable that he can be safely trusted And cannot parents keep their children from places really immoral without a special act to assist them? It seems to us, and it is not a good sign, that in Massachusetts, the law is undertaking a good deal of work which properly belongs to fathers and mothers and the fact does not speak well for the average adult morality.

senior partner of

the Well known manufacturing firm of Sinker & Davis, Indianapolis, died at his home in that city on Wednesday. The Indianapolis Journal says he was serious-1 ly injured at the terrible boiler explosion at the State Fair grounds in 1869, but whether the effects of that injury, from which he never fully recovered, had any thing to do with aggravating the disease which caused his death, we do not know. But in mind, more than in body, he suffered from that great disaster it was a present sorrow with him through all the subsequent months of his life, and his strength was greatly impaired thereby. Mr. Sinker had acquired a comfortable competence^ in addition to which he carried $16,000 insurance on his life.

exchange explains why Senator Garrett Davis, of Kentucky, is now the favored leader of the Southern Democracy: His bold declaration that "a more lawless dictator was never in power than Secretary Stanton, and that if justice had been dealt out to him in his life for his crimes he would have been hung a hundred times for murder and put in the penitentiary ten thousand times for his crimes," finds a responsive echo in the hearts of the men who ask for complete amnesty as a return for their outrages.

The San Domingo Report.

From the Ind. Journal.]

vll

We abandon much of our space to-day to the message of the President of the United States, and to the report of the Special Commissioners, upon San Domingo. The message of transmittal gives the successive steps taken, by General Grant in the furtherance of the scheme of annexation—tells how he first came to view the matter with a favorable eye, and when once into it, defends the persistence with which he has pursued the poliqy. He says the report of the Special Commissioners fully sustains everything he has said and urged of the productiveness of San Domingo, and the desire of the inhabitants of the Republic for incorpora' tion into the United States. He has favored its annexation to our country because of a respect for thfe Monroe doctrine, and because he could not "permit any independent government within the lim its of North America to pass from a condition of independence to one of ownership or protection under a European power." The President is very clearly a "manifest destiny man"—announcing that the "institutions of our Republic are broad enough for the whole continent," plainly intimating that he believes in pushing them to the furthermost limit whenever a favorable opportunity occurs.

He defends his failure to drop the project of annexation upon the rejection of the treaty by the Senate, because reports to the prejudice of himself and of General Bat cock were freely bruited in the press, and he did not know how far those charges of fraud and corruption had influenced the judgment of the Senate. There was no way to get at the truth of this, for the debates upon the treaty were in executive session. He therefore deemedit better that there should be a thorough and open investigation, and the result given to the public.

The message closes with the assertion that he has no policy to enforce against the will of the people that in transmitting the Commissioners' report to Congress his duty and responsibility ends that the facts now go for the decision of the sovereign people, whose wishes each branch of the government is constitutionally bound to carry out. The suggestion

There are two or three thoughts suggested by the message which must be reserved for discussion at another time. The document will go further to reassure the country that the words of theiiaaUg ural were not empty that the President is the people's President, and they not the President's people. .*•«-

Word-Painters.

[From "Thoughts on Art," by Philip Gilbert Hammerton—in the press of Roberts Brothers, Boston.J

Our best modern English word-paint' ers are, among the poets, Tennyson, Shelley, Byron, Scott, Wordsworth and Keats, in order of excellence.

And of prose writers, Raskin stands uite alone then after him, but at a great istance, come about a dozen others whom it is needless to particularize.

Of all these I give Tennyson the first place. Even Buskin, the best prose wordpainter who ever lived, savs that no description of his is worth four lines of Tennysoo.

Tennyson seems to me to understand the limitation of word-painting better than any other man. There is not the slightest'straining after unattainable fidelities in any one of his descriptions. They go no further than the limits of the art allow and thev are always exquisite as

tha highlit JmUI N£W ADVI

that can be gireil to any artist, bteause It, implies his perfect Conception of the ia Ids

his

boundaries of his art, ana Ids mastery FOB

orer all that lieswilhin those boundaries. _J_. a Shelley's paintii^ has a remarkable tiaM 011(1 MaClllIl6 »WUlg resemblance to Turner's, which I think no critic has hitherto pointed oat. There are the same splendor, colpr and mystery the same love of clouds and" %ater the same reality and abstraction. It seems to me that if Shelley had given himself a pictorial instead of a literary training, he might, if he had lived, have rivaled Turner on his own ground.

Byron's word-painting is toorpMsionate to be in any way accurate. It owes 'all power to fire of JanguagejMidetreogth of imagery. The,reader,i&,n£ver really moved by the scene lles&iMd^but by the vivid images and allusions it calls forth from the poet.

Scott's descriptions are affectionate and often very spirited in their way, bat not always artistic. They 'are seldom pictorially conceived. They harmonize, however, very well with the vigorous human action of, his, characters. -His view of nature, though he seems to have enjoyed color, was perhaps rather that of a sportsman happy to be oat in the open air, than that of a devoted student of landscape.

Keats might have made an excellent word-painter if he had lived, but I do not: snare Mr. Buskin's too humble veneration for' what lie actually wrote.., His words are often very. cUveriy fitted in quaint, odd ways, and do, no doubt, atta&f a peculiar power which,. I dare say, would be difficult to imitate,, if. it were desirable, which it Certainly is not. Mr. Ruskin himself is, when a little excited, a much better writer of English than Keats, in his brief career, evercame to be. •.

Woodaworth knew toote oPtftfdral' scenery than any ofhOr irrjter not alio a painter knew as much I should say, as many a professed landscape painters but as an artist in words he .attempted

:toor

much. 1, who ant a 'painter and who know the scenery Wooaswotyh described, can voubh for the delicate trttthfulness of his descriptions. They contain evidences of observation very rare in literature, but they are without effect on readers ignorant of landscape, because they require powers of' memory and. imagination in the reader which no reader who is not a profound observer of natiirg ban possibly

Mr. Buskin's art of description ih prose is. in every way wonder/ul. He complained somewhere that his readers missed the arguments in -.his books, and dashed at the descriptions. A novel complaint truly! What author but Mr,' Ruskin ever found his descriptions dangerously seductive? Other people's descriptions areskipped habitually by th£ prudent reader. Mr. Buskin's, it appears, do positive injury to the graver and more argumentative parts of his writings. He is decidedly the first author who has made landscape description too attractive and when we try to. get at the reason for this attractiveness in his word pictures, we very soon see that it is mainly owing to an unusual magnificence of language, and a studied employmeet of metaphor.

Charlotte' Bronte was by no means a weak sketcher in words: many of her descriptions prove great literary power. They are more concentrated than Mr. Buskin's, but neither so profoundly nor so grandly conceived.

Thackery has great and stirring powers of description, which he too seldom exercises. "s

Marian Evans does really good: landscape sketching, of an intensely truthful character. There are no better qufet pictures in their way in any literature than the brief ones which occurin"Adam Bede," and the "Mill on, the Floss."

George Sand has a passionate love for nature,with theintensest feeling.: She understands the expression of landscape, and renders it with great power. Her interest in landscape seCme to strengthen as she grows older,' -her latest' -novels being remarkable for "their evidence: of close and recent observation of nature. Her descriptions are thoroughly masterlv and artistic, and I rank them very high as specimens" of- what may be done with words.

Lamartine's are less passionate, more contemplative, more elaborately worked out as a whole, less elaborately, perhaps, in thetnost essential andsighifieantdetaUs, In bis praise they often beCome extremely tiresome/ but never, in his Terse, Whdse exquisite construction carries the reader on.

The l/nirersal Life Ingnraace Company The statement of this company for the year 1870^ shows that its financial condition is one of the grMtest-securiy, and that th4 principle upon Which the company-is conducted—that of reducing the premiums to the lowest possible scale and abandoning the garnish of periodical div idfends—is both sound in practice and ac ceptable to the great body of those who seek life insurance. The number of poli cies issued by the company ih 1870 was 2,304, insuring $6,175,905, and the net surplus at the end of the year was 132 26, which lurnished a ratio of assets over liabilities of 136 per eent.j or, in other words, the company possesses $136 for every $100 of its liabilities.

The company has attained this proud position in less than six years although it claims rates of premiums twenty five per cent, /ess than those charged by other companies. This low cost of life insurance ought to prove an attractive feature and the advantage will be plainly seen in the fact that the company has received in premiums from its policy holders the sum of $1,517,000, whilst to effect the same amount of insurance in a mutual company would have cost $2,000,000. Thus by allowing its policy holders to retain this excess of $483,000 the company has virtually paid them a dividend of $483,000, and paid it in advance instead of at the end of one or more years.

The managers of the company claim that it is impossible to find any example of a mutual company furnishing insurance at so low a cost by returning to its

If the people say yes, then let the Re public be annexed if nay, let the project be dropped, although the President's private opinion is not-liable to mutation. His mind is made up that it is a good thing, and the report of the commission has only strengthened the be lief.

similar receipts. This is the principle of business advocated by many accomplished actuaries, who agree that the sums returned to the

Sividends

ol icy holders under the designation of are monies that never ought to have been taken from them, and that these dividends are nothing mpre than a restitution of property falsely charged. The Universal Lire has the sagacity to test this theory, and the result has had the effect of distinguishing this company above fourteen rivals of its age that pur* sued the old well*trodden path. The success of the company is a proud victory for the management, and' we are confides that as the equity of the system becomes more widely known it will be more largIv patronized.—Exchange.

Persons wishing to exchange stocks ork or other bonds tor these, can do so with anjii of our Agonts, who will allow tho highest cur-» rent price for ALL M*RKETABLK SECVBITIIS,
