THE Cincinnati Commercial" quotes Exodus xxxv chap, verse, to show that RICHARD SMITH, Esq., of the Cincinnati

Gazette," should be put to death.

I ^NOTICING the fact, approvingly mentioned in the EXPRESS some weeks ago, that the female principals of the Chicago public schools are hereafter to be paid the name salaries as men performing like work, the Cincinnati Gazette" says:

This is a recognition of woman's rights to which no fair minded conservative could object.

ft A NEW YORK journal thinks OLEBCLI, will undoubtedly be hindered by his ill ness, of which .news w»s published last week, from making a concert tour, which be proposed to undertake this autumn, with the management of Mr. THOMAS TURNBULI.,. All lovers of the noble old master's kind face and inspired violin will join in the hope that his health will soon return.

DURING Senator MORTON'S speech at the great soldier's reunion, at Winchester, last Friday, says a correspondent, he had occasion to call upon those of the vast assembly who had lost a near .relative or friend in the late war to manifest it- by raising a hand. Instantly a thousand arose, and with his own uplifted also, he eloquently adjured them to cherish the government in memory of the lost loved ones. The effect was thrilling.

THK Terre Haute EXPRESS has a wholesome terror of the Pope.—LouLviUe Ledger. 'J..

Not a bit of it. Ilia Holiness has had his dxy of suppressing and oppressing newspapers and though he still tries his hand at the old game, the hand is impotent. He is not too Pius tor "squelch" any independent journal, as' his orders clearly prove, but his commands, ill seculaB affairs, have no influence except upon "the faithful." The •EXPRESS has no "terror of the Pope"-— an he an

THERE is soms reason to believe that the cholera may- be upon us--before many, weeks. In this connection we give .^he timely adviceof the St. Louis "Democrat," which says: "The rumors are of course apt to be much in advance of the reality, and it is' safe to say that there ia'no occasion tor special alarm. There is reason,liovfrevCr,for all proper precautions, and it is the duty of our citizens, espcialy of our Health Department, to make timely preparations that shall either avert the troublesome visitor or give him scanty entertainment shonld he insist upon passing this way." •AFTER all, it likely that the only -.good thing the Democratic party can do is to die.—Mail.

Ages hence the American Association for the Advancement of Science will ponder on the structure of its disturbed fossil remains—as B. WATERHOCSE HAWKINS now contemplates those of the flying lizard—and wonder to what order of beings it belonged. It will live only in tradition, in an eternity of execration, as the friend,and advocate of humanity's direst curse,—slavery. As the long tide "of ages rolls away, all other infamies of our own and past centuries will fade from the memory of inafi and the hiiifiati race, glancing backwards towards creation's morb, will face but one damning shame,— the tradition that, in the nineteenth century, there was a great political party that advocated the right of one man to own, and work, and buy, and sell his brother man. a

Yes, decidedly €nl^ *(fobd thing the Democratic party can do is to die.' It has no place in this progressive age. Its principles and aims are antagonistic to the advancing, civilization of our time. It feeds out of the poffins of dead issues. The sooner it passes away, the less will be the weight of 6hame with .which «yery hour of ita existence loads coming generations. ... .».»« rfXfO'

THts editoijfof the -^Jkrcinnati ^'Commercial'' fa as been a great travelerin his •day, his reputktion in this particular tbeiug coextensive with that of IDANISL. JPRATT or G. F. TRAIN. The views of such a man, upon national peculiarities, are worth reading: •"The French have the best polldrewem and the most bald-headed men «ef people in the world The Americans •lau-e ihe best dentists and the most,' bad -teeth of any people in the world.

The Eoglixh have the best corn doctors and the aiost corns of any people in the world. The Gei mans have the best lager and the fewest drunkards of any people in the .world"

And he might as truly have added, "The Spaniards have the most priests .and the most wickedness of any people in .the world."*

Morton.

If testimony were needed to the triumphant conclusiveness.at Mr. Morton's -speech, it is found in tbe_ pitiable w&k-' jiess of the attempted replies to it by the JMsitfe press. The sockdelMjer watb which his chain-lightning of krfumfenl is met is that he is "Grant's right bower," °"the orator of the Administration party," &c On this fearful string the changes are rung with annihilating variety, and that is ail that these stricken anti Republicans can yet answer to Morton. The secret of his power ia his downright di reciness and earnestness, and strong practical sense, giving him & -grip on men's minds that no elaborateness of .oratory can compass.—St. Isnri* Democrat.

THE LOSS OF THE ENGLISH CABLES. The fact has been developed that the loss of both tbe English cables last year, and consequent expenses and inconvenience, resulted Irom a stupendous blunder. When the cable of lfc66 gav® ont the fault was located, by the usual tests, in mid ocean, whither a repair steamer was dispatched to take up and reunite the two ends In grappling for these the cable of 1865 was picked up and completely pecured, and efforts'to find the break in that of 1866 were fruitless. This left the public dependent entirely upon the French cable until last spring,, when it was discovered thai th4 fault of the cable of 1S66, instead of lieing in mid-ocean, was in close proximity to the Newfoundland coast, where it might have been repaired in.a few hours, except for the* original mi^talre, which resulted in the rupture of one cable by efforts to find the break in the other where it did not exist. These facts have an important beai ing in promoting the laying of new and competing cables, eon1 firming as they do, the theory th^t ocean cables, once properly laid in deep water, are little liable to be severed,

TERRE-HAUTE, INDIANA, MONDAY MORNING. AUGUST 21,1871.

GOVERNMENT CONTRACTORS. ST LOUIS, August 19—Durfee & Peck, government contractors, against whom a writer in the Sioux City Times recently mode Kome charges, publish a card in the Republican this morning, in which they say, in answer to the charges: We would say that the writer has shown his ignorance. No person has a right to sell goods in an Indian country unless he has filed bonds, of not less than $5,000, locates his place of business and receives a license from the Indian Department So says the interior law, and it is a well known fact that the Secretary of War appoints all cutlers, and without that appointment no man has a right to trade with soldiera. W'e are under bonds to the government in the sum of $5,000 to $10,000, for every post we have established, and shall claim our rights as traders, knowing as we do that outside traders not under restrictions would peddle whisky, and unless caught in the act we would be held responsible, It is the duty of every post commander to see that outsiders are prohibited from dealing with Indians aqd soldiers. A fine state of affairs would exist if every steamboat that navigates the Upper Missouri was allowed to peddle as they saw fit. It wonld cost tbe government mil lionsof dollars yearly to keep the Indians. As regards transporting packages to citizens and soldiers, we have never refused unless we had fears that the goods wei.e contraband.

PHILADELPHIA.

THE EVANS CASE.

PHILADELPHIA, August 19.—A special to the Evening Telegram says: In the Evans case the Governor has instructed the Arorney General to adopt such measures as he deems necessary to enforce justice to the State, and the arrest of Evans for embezzlement will follow. A powerful ring is believed to be con, nected with Evans, that they have divided the money, and decided not to refund to the State. Eminent counsel have been consulted, and they feel assured (hat Evans cannot be convicted of embezzlement, because of the looseness of the law, and that the members ef the ring have calculated all the consequences of hra arrest, which is now expected, and they expect him to be acquitted, as he has no property, and his bond is only for $10,000. They expect the bond will be collected, and there the farce of the case ends. It is a most com plete conspiracy to defraud the State.

They believe that the accident would have been" averted had there been strict compliance with the re* quirements of the ventilation law, and that while the owner of the mine, Mr. Tompkins, is censurable for his negligence, yet he is exonerated on account of his illness for many months preventing his *tendance at the mines, and inspector Bewitt is exonerated because his time was too much occupied in legitimate duties.
