TSEBS HA.UT3, INDIA.??A..

Friday Morning, October 6. 1871.

PROF. AGASSIZ is about setting out from Boston on a deep-sea survey of the oceans bordering America. :®vi-

ON the 17th inst. the Indiana Medical College will commence the Fall session with about one hundred and fifty students-

WILD geese are moving South.—Ind. Newt. Well, move on, and don't make a fuss about it.

THE "Journal" calls on us to prove an axiom. It isn't worth while to waste time or space in supporting self-evident truth. *•.-

A RELIABLE authority estimates that Ohio will go Republican by twenty-five thousand majority, although dissensions and divisions may give the Democracy the control of the Legislature.

THE Boston "Times" is authority for the statement thai JOHN DIXON, the founder of the flourishing town of Dixon, Illinois is the only survivor of a band of twelve young men, who in 1800, in Boston, formed the Young Men's Bible Society, the first Bible Society in this country, or in the world.

WITH Secretary Fish's retirement the Cabinet will lo9e a great deal of dignity and respectability.—Ind. News, "Dignity and respectability" being highly important in a Minister of State it is reasonable to suppose that Secretary FISH'S successor will be one in whose character these elements are not wanting

JEFFERSON DAVIS is soon to make Bal timore his permanent residence.—Exchange

Our information is that the venerable ex-functionary contemplates settling in Cnaada, because the broad gauge rail ways of the Dominion offer superior facilities for his favorite amusement.

BEN. BUTLER and the small-pox would ruin any town.—Louisville Commercial. If BEN is such a bad fellow, how happens it that he retains, year after year (he confidence of his neighbors and fellow citizens? The Essex District will compare favorably in point of morality and intelligence, with any other Congres sional District in the Union. Strange that such voters should persist in casting their votes for a bad man!

A SPECIAL correspondent gives the New York "Tribune" an entertaining account of the English Autumn maneuvers of which we have heard so much, and a recital of the rehearsal of the battle Dorking, as this performance is usually called. The criticisms made are not so severe as those which have appeared English newspapers, but they are, never theless, indicative of anything but a high state of discipline in the army, or a very efficient condition of thingH in the commissary and quartermaster's service. The "Tribune thinks the Aldershot show may have been a fine spectacle, but it certainly was not a brilliant success as a test of mil itary power and vigor.

AN intelligent correspondent of tho Philadelphia Press suggests as a rea son why the Southern Democracy will not Bend delegates to the next National Convention of their party, the solicitude of HAMPTON, and others like him, to secure the colored vote of the South. To win over any considerable portion of it the colored people must be represented in the next National Convention. This to the rebel wing would not be so dis' tasteful—they already nominate negroes for (office but Jto the Caucasians of the North it would be an insult which would not be tolerated. The long-eared animal with the coat of the lion is not yet prepared to dwell or'even sit in peace with the lamb.

BRIGHT announces himself as a candidate for re-election to the office of State Printer, because he wishes to be "endorsed'by his party. Shoemaker clamors for an "endorsement," and Ryan howls piteously for a renomination, merely for the sake of the "endorsement" of his official career. It is time this sort of poppycock were played out. To say nothing about the State Printer, take a manlike Auditor

Shoemaker or Treasurer

Ryan, and pray what have they done that deserves an indorsement? They may have farmed out the public funds with customary vigor, they may have drawn the interest and put it in their pockets with marked ability, they may have worn out several pairs of breeches and the leather cushions in their arm chairs in their offices, but beyond this what have they done that demands an "indorsement?" By the time Shoemaker's term of office expires he will have received over fifty thousand dollars in the way of fees and perquisites, for which he will not have performed much labor as an ordinary book-keeper would in the same length of time. W should suppose that fifty thousand dollars was indorsement enough for a man of his calibre.—Ind. Journal.

GENERATION after generation have felt as we now feel, and their uvea were as active as our own. They passed like vapor, while nature wore the Bame aspect as when nature comm«jided her to be. The heavens shall be as bright over our

f'he

raves as they now are around our paths, world will have the same attractions for our offspring yet unborn as she had once for us children. Yet in a little while all will have happened. The throbbing heart will be at rest. Our funeral will wind its way, and prayers will be said, and then we shall be left alone in silence and in darkness for the worms, and it may be but a short time we shall be spoken of, and our names will soon be forgotten. Days will continue to move on, and laughter and song will be heard in the room in which we died and the eyes that mourned for us will be dried and glisten again for joy and even our children will cease to think of us, and will not remember to lisp our names."

Coffee. 7*\

The duty on coffee has leen reduced two cents per pound the past year, yet the price remains the same. The Washington "Republican ascribes this to the fact that the crop has been a failure this year in nearly all the great coffee-growing districts. Is it not rather to be ascribed to the large amount"bf the native bean now used in manufacturing what is called the "extract of coffee?" Or perhaps it may be owing to a rise in the price of chiccory, barley, beans, or some other cheap adulterating agent, to the flavor of which coffee drinkers in this country have become so accustomed that they prefer the -spurious to the pure Moca or Java.

For the Express.] IT BETTER TO RID THAJF TO BUST,"

BY CHARLESJOAB.

There is anguish and strife -there is folly in life Disappointments and care throng our way

Bat if we prevail. Though misfortune assail.

We can learn something new every day. Thank fortune and fate, they have opened the gate: Now more faithful to God I can trust Since my weak mind has caught the most beautiful thought.

It is better to rub than to rust.

Should we upward ascend to some glorious

And achieve something noble and grea* Then our work is not done.— We should still labor on To do good, it is never too late. And the old clock so true, which has given to yen The time so correct and so just. Should never complain to be wound up

For "^Cis tetter to rub than to rust-" j| When the student has wrought, by the force of his thought, .. All the problems of science and art,

His diplema obtained, Our confidence gained.

And i».asked to perform a great part. Must the task be declined? Must his Proud noble mind Be corrupted by folly and lust? For conscience sake! no! there is plenty to do. ,, r» And 'Tis bottcr to rub than to rust. I

And the soldier so true in feis mantle ofbluo Who enlists with a spirit so brave, And imperils his life

Mid the carnage and strife

His dear native country to save. When the battle is done, and. great victory won, 171 And the proud foe laid low in the dust Let him keep his sword bright, still prepared for the fight. For 'Tis better to rub than to rust

And you. Christian friend, as you proudly portend The manner in which you would livu,

If from errors' sad chain You desire to refrain.

Please to heed the advice which I give Be thou constant in youth, as the compass, to iruth Placeln God all your care and your trust Then, remain as you are, like the firm polar star, For 'Tis better to rub than to rust.

JOAQUIN MILLER. A

A Description of the "Sunset Poet" as Ho Appeared in New Yorte

"We dropped in at Brady's the other day," says a correspondent, "and there met Joaquin Miller, the poet. He had been sitting for his picture, and a capital one he makes, with a very striking resemblance of the late N. P. Willis when at the same age." A correspondent of the Chicago "Times" has given a life-like description of Miller, which can hardly be improved on, and we copy it below. It should be remarked that the timidity in his step is owing to the presence of a bullet in his left leg, which makes it unsafe for him to be without a cane. Miller, through his writings, has made many waam friends in this city, who have kind' ly and cordially expressed their admira tion to him in written terms, and who will be sorry to learn that he has reluc tantly dccided to forego the pleasure of a visit here for the present. H-l'i MSB? S

JOAQUIN MILLER,

Our latest sunset poet, who is already enthroned high in the temple, having ascended by one stride, by way of England's short route to American popularity, has been in our midst. His was like an eagle's visit, inasmuch as it was made al most unawares, and lie went away very nearly in the Bame quiet manner.

The story that we had of him from England, about his oulre costume, and don't-care-a-fig-for-your gentry manner must have been a pure fabrication. It was said that he looked like a miner, and was rough, burly and untamed. Indeed so much of Poker Flat was suggested by the stories that were told of him, as he braved the British lion in his printinghouses, and of his top boots and red shirt tin the very salons of the alphabet-loving peeresses of her Majesty's realm, that we began to look about our reception-rooms upon his approach with that "bull-in-a-china-shop" dread which the advent of such a wild-man would naturally suggest but he came, and I'll tell you HOW HE LOOKED AND HOW HE BEHAVED.

Not much above the medium height is he slight, pale, stooping, and with timidity in his step which is almost painful. His voice is thin, low,., and slightly hesitating, and suggests a tendency to con sumption. His head is handsome, and his sunny hair grows low down upon his broad forehead. His whiskers and moustache are lighter and flossier" even than his hair, and partly conceal a very sensitive mouth. His eyes are violet in shade, and sad in expression. He ipeaks little, and smiles seldom but when he|does either, the effect is charm ing. He dresses very quietly, though slightly in the Pacific style. His suit was black, or very dark plain clad, and neat, but not without the evidences of wear. His shirt was a delicate hair-line of blue and white, and his artistic love of color was manifest only by his scarlet necktie^if: His hat, poet-like, was-som-brero.

He is probably the most unpretending man that ever turned the heads of poet lovers. Springing from oblivion to the position of a blazing star so suddenly, and yet showing utter unconsciousness of his altitude of brilliancy, is a proof of his genuineness as a songster.

He looks like a man who was familiar with sorrow, but who was too proud to cry out in his suffering, except now and then in a rythmed wail, which brought responsive tears from-* all who listened. Like all such wild minstrels, he cannot sing at will, consequently he has turned a deaf ear to the princely offers which have been made to him by publishers. When he has completed one poem he has no reason to believe that he can ever furnish another, and so, like a comet in the heavens of literature, he is likely to remain but we hope and pray'that his light may continue to brighten our horizon for many a year to come. •.?

Woman's Rights in Russia. Formerly, the only public employment in Russia accorded to ue fetoale subjects of the Czar was to sv, eep the city streets under the whip of the police, and the "la dies" thus emyloyed were those only who had been convicted of drunkenness. The Emperor Alexander, who liberated the serfs and reformed the Church (i. c., the clergy) a few years ago, has now recognized Woman's Rights to a large extent. After long and careful 'deliberation with his Ministerial Council, Alexander has issued an edict extending and enlarging the existing institutions for instructing women in midwifery, and doubtless other branches of surgery and medicine, for it is further said that, considering the great utility of Sisters of Mercy in hospitals, women are to act as surgeons, to be authorized to vaccinate, and to be employed as chemists. They are also to be afforded every facility and assistance in the educational establishments. They are to be mado workers in the telegraph offices, even as in France, England, and the United States. For a begining this is a great deal. It was proposed to admit women into the public offices, and the experiment was attempted upon a limited scale the result was a general complaint from the chief clerks of the departmental bureaus that the ladies talked so much with each other that one male actually performed more work than three female clerks.

THE Revere accident cost the Eastern Railroad heavily, the company settling for the victims at $5,000 a piece. A number of suits have been brought against the Staten Island Ferry Company for damages by the explosion of the steamer Westfield, so that the company is likely to pay far more than would have kept the boats in first-class order.

THE IMF OF MONTEREY.

Curious Youngster That Barnnni Should Hate.

There is a Digger Boy femployed on a sheep ranch in Monterey connty, California, who is a human curiosity. He herds about eight hnndred sheep all by himself, and the overseer says h.e knows every one by sight, and when he brings them in at night he will get upon the corral fence and tell whether one is missing. He is about fourteen, and has a face as round as the moon, and the brightest black eyes, which fairly sparkle with mischief,

Hs turns more somersaults and hangs head downward from more trees than a man could count readily and seems hardly to be aware of the existence of his sheep during the wholeday, yet he brings them all at night. Like a true Indian, his motions are perfectly cat-like, and he never calls his sheep, but always imitates the owl, the wild cat, or the coyote. When his employer calls him he never answers a syllable, but starts and runs toward him with all his might.

Mischievous as he is when alone, he is as shy as a partridge, and was never known to come to his meals with the others unless he was specially called by name The overseer got tired of being obliged always to give him a special and particular invitation to dinner, so he went out and took him by the ear one day and led him to the table but the boy straightway burst out crying and blubbering in grievous distress of mind, and it took him two days to recover his equanimity.

A revolver was brought for him that he might shoot at the coyotes when they came to prey on his flock, but he regardedit with aversion. At last they prevailed on him to carry it for two days in succession, and on the second day he saw a wild cat, crept upon it with true Indian stealth, lay flat on his belly, held the pistol to his face, and after sighting along the barrel and then squinting at the cat alternately about a dozen times, at-last he fired. The pistol kicked him in the butt of the ear, and after that he could never be induced to take it again. The Dig gers are a timorous and gentle race, and do not take to firearms like the hell-born Apaches. *j

Suicides in Central Park. On last Sunday night another unfortu nate took his own life in the Central Park. This, we believe, makes the sec' ond or third suicide which has occurred there, and it looks as though the Park might become as popular among those who wish to kill themselves as London Bridge or the former column in the Place Vendome. In committing suicide as in othef crimes, men are apt to be im itative, and one self-destroyer follows blindly in the wake of another. Some time ago, it will be remembered, hotel after hotel in this city was made the scene of self-murder. A well dressed lady or a young man would apply for room overnight, enter it, and be found in the morning dead. So many times did the unpleasant incident occur at one or other of our hotels, that it really seemed as if an organized conspiracy of suicides against the peace and comfort of our worthy Bonifaces had been formed. The landlords began to think seriously of de fensive measures. The gentlemanly clerk was instructed to search keenly for the latent gleam of madness in the eye of the coming guest, and, on the least suspicion of laudanum or pistols, to turn him or her "away. Night-porters listened unwearily for the smothered reports of firearms or agonizing groans and chamber maids went upon their morning rounds with trembling anticipations of some ghostly spectacle behind each door they opened.

If these weary discounters of life are about to change their field of operations, let us hope that their fatal preference may not settle upon the Central Park There all things should be bright, and lovely, and cheerful, meet for the trusting place of "youth and mirthful jolity." One can not abide the thought that its trim walksjor peaceful shrubberies should eyer become familiar with the dreadful frenzies of despair that its soft, bright turf should ever be dabbled in blood, or that little children, playing merrily on its meadows in the morning sunshine, should come suddenly upon a horror of staring eyes and lifeless lips. We trust that the suicidally inclined among us will show this last grace to the public senti ment they outrage, and spare the charm and joyous brightness of the people's pleasure ground.—N. Y. Post.

FRANCE BIDS fair to have as much trouble with Algeria as Spain has of late had with Cuba. The insurrection which broke out in the French colony in Africa immediately after the downfall *f Louis Napoleon, has not only not been sup pressed, but is spreading. It certainly struck deep roots among the disaffected natives. The insurgents are now on the borders of Tunis, and appear to have the sympathy of all the Africans-among whom they raise the banner of revolt. The excitement among the Algerines is on the increase, and, if France hopes to regain her former prestige in Africa, her rulers may as well make up their minds to reconquer the insurrectionary province, for nothing short of this will subdue the warlike tribes, waary unto death of the yoke of their self-constituted and always hated, though for a long time feared, European masters.—PhiL Inquirer.

QUEEIR VICTORIA, who, it is thought, Is in a very precarious Btate of health, has money enough of her own to defray the expenses of a very handsome funeral. She is said to have saved $15,000,000 from the civil list since she ascended the throne. In addition to this she received $5,000,000 at the death of Prince Albert, and the miser Neeld bequeathed another $5,000,000,] all of which she has laid up for a rainy day. It is estimated that her fortune now amounts to $35,000,000. But the Prince of Wales is a very bad boy, having, it is said, already contracted debts to the amount of $5,000,000, and his share of his mother's fortune is not likely to last him always. When he shall have been upon the throne a few years, a lengthy spell of wet weather, which the Queen has so well provided, would find him with scarcely money enough of his own about the house to buy a water-proof overcoat or even a tenshilling umbrella.—Courier-Journal.

MR. TILTON says we have been so busy in attacking him that we have had no time to devote to Tammany and so, with a pretty spitefulness, he begins a furious flirtation with another newspaper. This is highly characteristic. We have had two or three paragraphs about Mr. Tilton, and two or three hundred articles against Tammany, and yet—such is the morbid vanity developed by keeping com pany with Demosthenes—this ingenuous youth can not for the life of him see that the first fact does not completely outweigh the last.—New York Tri&unt.. I

AT the explosion Of the Ocean Wave the women had more presence of mind than the men, and the Southern papers boast of one self-possed matron, who, amid all the confusion and the horrible scenes by which she was surrounded, made her way to her state room, and came out in triumph with her false teeth and chignon.

SOME of the Michigan papers are severe in their comments upon the verdict of the jury in the Vanderpool case. The Manistee "Times" advises the acquitted man not to visit that place. It says: "The people of this city earnestly believe him guilty, and consider this trial the greatest farce of the age, and it would seem foolhardy for a man whom nineteen out of every twenty believe guiky, to coma here."

BLoNtm is coming back to dance in iir over the thunders of Niagara, ahd has made his last appearance it the Crystal Palace, London. Excursion trains run into the city from all directions, bringing an overwhelming crowd to get the benefit of his farewell. igg

was bad enough when our Eastern belles were told that all attempts to snare the heart of the Russian Prince were vain, because he is already bethrothed. But worse has come: he isn't handsome they say now, but a homely compound of Teuton and Kalmuck.
