The Lafayette Journal will please consider itself grasped by the hand. We have formed a mutual admiration society. It says:

Our lively and enterprising contemporary, tho Terro Ilauto Express, did tho same thing the Journal did here, on the day Gulteau was hung. The Express folks got out an "extra" giving a full and interesting account ot the hanging, an hour or two bofore tho afternoon paper was Issued, and sold a largo edition before that Issue got Into tho market at all. These Indiana afternoon papers seem to be going to sleep. People aro beginning to learn that they have to depend upon the morning papers for news, any way. These little afternoon paper are n. g.

During the past month the public debt has been decreased $12,500,000. This is quite an imposing sum, and fully warrants the following from the New York Herald:

This Is a good showing for the Treasury but it should bo remembered that every dollar which finds its way Into tho strong box of tho Government comes out of the pockets of the people. Why should tho debt be paid so fast? Tho bondholders do not demand It on tho contrary, they would infinitely prefer to extend its liquidation over a groater number of years and thereby secure Investment for their money. They would be only too glad to accept a lower rate of iuterest on such conditions. No generation has done so much in warand in peace toward the preservation of its nationality as the American ono of to-day. The story Is one of the most heroic chapters In tho history of tho world, but there is the practical side to it which may bo putin tho question, "Why should it tax itself to death for the benefit" of posterity?"

"The Brooklyn Eaglo well says, In concluding its articlo on the lesson of Gulteau: "Over tho White Houso entrance should be written, where all might see, that hatred lathe mother of murder, and partisan vilification the element out of which aissassinatlon springs." That is the lesson tho Journal attempted to enforce. Assassination of character Is not far removed from assassination ot life, and It isan Incentive to It."—[Indianapolis Journal.

The foregoing words are well and fitly spoken. Scaacely a day passes when something does not occur to remind us of the evil influence of "partisan vilification." By many it is carried so far that they pretend to see no vice among thoso who do. Such men are worso than common barrators. These latter only stir up quarrels and lawsuits, while the former disturb the. peaco of society by inciting good men, between whom there is no real cause of anger to the hatred of each other. Agitation of some sort is necessary to their existence, and if they cannot producc it by fair, tho do not hesitate to resort to foul means—sometimes seeming to prefer tho latter, probably because it gives a broader field for the display of their inventive faculties.

It needs but little reflection to seo that this matter is more serious than many suppose, and that some remedy should be devised which shall save the country from its deleterious consequences. The public hold the remedy in their own hands, and can apply it by frowning upon all sorts of calumny and withholding their approbation from those who indulge in it. One man has as much right to his opinion as another, and there is no reason in the world why mere differences of opinion should lead to an impeachment of motives. In party matters it is impossible that all should be of one mind, and when this is understood and recognized, we shall have more time to discuss, with calmness and moderation, the principles which really divide the parties, and will be more likely to reach proper conclusions^ Without this there is danger that public opinion will always be wavering and uncertain, and with it we may feel the assurance that self-government is in no danger of failure.

OTOrUBLIC BUILDOTG.

The bill for the long-delayed appropriation for a public building in this city was pushed through the House July 3d, by our Congressman, Mr. Peirce. It will be'remembered that a month ago when Mr. Peirce moved to take from the Spieaker's table the Senate bill on the same subject, an ad-' journment of the House vraa forced while the Honorable member was on his feet. This was but one of a series of obstructions to the passage of this necessary and justifiable appropriation. "When on Monday, Mr. Peirce brought forward the bill, he was met by a determined opposition, which as' the Indianapolis Journal says "was, of course, foundationless, being conducted by a few demagogues whose whole political stock in trade is the very cheap, 'I object,' which is supposed to make a small politician a great political economist." The objections by these cheap objectors were probably based on such knowledge, or want of knowledge, or willful inattention to fact as is displayed by the correspondent of the Chicago Tribune, who was much afflicted by the appropriation, and describes Terre Haute as a place of about 25,000 inhabitants, where there is no public ofRce except the post-oflice, and where the Government pays a rent of only $900 a year. He also thinks the appropriation no more necessary than one to a village in Mississippi of 1,500 inhabitants.

We are moderate in claiming 30,000 people for our city, and the Representatives who voted for our public building had sense enough to look a few years ahead to the iuture of our city with all its present and prospective prosperity.

The Collector's office, through which passes a revenue not exceeded in many districts in the country, was overlooked by the Chicago correspondent. The government has been fortunate in renting an office in this city at one half of what would be received from ordinary business purposes for the same building.

We do not feel that our city is more highly favored than others in receiving this grant for a public building or that the money will be leBs judiciously expended in providing suitable accommodations for the post office business, which has outgrown its present quarters, and for the revenue offices, than if used, for some of the more expensive piles that swallow government money without stint or hindrance in Chicago and other large cities. The firm and steadfast support of the bill by our Senator D. W. Yoorhees, and our Congressman, Mr. Peirce, guarantees the judiciousness and necessity of the demand.

The promptness with which the committee of the House reported favorably on Mr. Peirce's bill, and tho support of its Chairman, Shallenberger, satisfy us that we have obtained no more than our right in receiving this allowance of $150,000 for a public building.

Says the New York Times: What becomes of all the dead letters? Everybody knows that there are millions of them. Last year, to be exact, there wero 3,153,201. Doubtless most people think that tho law of 1868 ("dead letters shall be restored to tho writers thereof free of postago") furnishes a slttsfactory reply to the question. But, as a matterof fact, during the same twelve months, 2,280,420 dead letters were "destroyed." As Mr. Weller frequently said, or would have said, on such an occasion as this, "That's werry slng'lar." Tho subject Is opened hero and now not so much because of Its general Interest to every user of tho malls as becauso of a wish to rescue from total and undeserved obscurity a bill introduced in the Senate a day or two ago by the Chairman of the Post Office Committee, Mr. Ferry, of Michigan. Senator Ferry proposes to re-enact, In effect, the law of I860, ane there Is not the slightest doubt thot a popular vote, could one bo taken, would declare his purpose a laudablo one- We are perfectly well awaro that of such dead letters so destroyed 2,277,414 are scheduled as containing "nothing of value." But wo aro wholly unable to bollevo that there wero lunatics on6ugli in nil these United States to take the trouble to write and post over two million letters containing "nothing of value." Or, even if thero bo so many, why, we beg to inquire, should tho Insane writer of 691,339 other dead letters "containlngnothlngof valuo" receive them back again? Admirable as our Post Offlco is in many ways, it is, in the natnro of things, incapablo of deciding what tho value of a letter may bo to its writer. Nobody mails anything for the purpose of having It destroyed. Noth ing should bo neglected to enable every ono who posts a lettor to feel secure that if ho docs not get it back again It has arrived at its destination. But how can thero bo any such feeling of socurity when so many as two and a quarter million lettors are nnnually destroyed by tho agoney to whoso care they are Intrusted?

Perhaps we can offer a suggestion. Quite a largo proportion of letters bear nothing but the christian name in signature. This is specially true of family letters and of letters that pass between old friends. In case these miscarry, it would bo impossible to trace or return them Allowance must also be made for the letters mailed from large cities, bearing the more signature of tho writers, very often quite unintelligible. All things considered, it is, perhaps, fair to say that the Dead Letter Office, under tho very efficient management of Mr. Dallas, is conducted as ably as it could be.

Too Modern.

That man is too modern for his party.

Its Brazen Beauty. *v5

Washington Post: President Arthur was the recipient yesterday of a brass medal struck in honor of the devotion of hlmsslf and 305 others for a cause whose defeat mado him what he is. The medal Is about three Inches in diameter, weighs six ounces, is ornamented with a head of U- S. Grant and tho name "Chester A, Arthur," and is encircled with the record of the thirty-six ballets taken in the Republican National Convention of 1880. In accepting the gift from the hands of* exSenator Conkling, who came to Washington to present It, Mr. Arthur simply referred to the brazen beauty of the design.

Got left.

Hawkeyo. The shower came up, or rather it came down—a shower never comes up—so unexpectedly that nearly everybody was taken by surprise and Jefferson street was in a panic. Young Masher, who never goes without his umbrella, saw his opportunity, and, sailing up to the prettiest girl with the prettiest hat In all Burlington, made a bow that Is warranted to kill across the stroet, and said: "May I offer you my umbrella?" "Oh, a thousand thanks," she said "papa will bring it down to his office in the morning," and she sailed away dry-shod, leaving him desolate and 'soaking In his loneliness, like a pelican in the wilderness and as a woatlier-vane upon the housetop.

A Joke on General Sheridan. When General Sheridan was fishing in Put-In-Bay, a couple of weeks ago, he told the following story on himself to some Cincinnati fishermen with whom he becamo a hail fellow: "I was in anew Kansas town ono day, and the landlord of tho hotel being a clevor sort of fellow, I let him have a drink of particularly fine bourbon that I had with mo in case of Blckness. 'That's bully whisky, strangor,' said the landlord, 'what might your name be?' 'Sheridan,' said I. 'Any relation to General Sheridan?' 'Well,' I repliod, 'I don't mind telling you that I am General Sheridan." You be hanged,' said the landlord, looking me over, 'a little duok like you? I've got General Sheridan's picture hanging in my sitting-room, and he's over six feet high!"

SUNSHINE. ..

Broad and bright the snnshino On the terrace lay, Touching with an equal ray, In equal gladness to illume Violet bed and yew tree's gloom', Yet, within the silent room

Dimly rose the day.

Merrily the snnshine Caught the upper pane, But as yet it strove in vain, ssiS With its glitter to surprlso The yearning in the lady's eyes, Who, lonely, 'neath the sweet spring

JlpFought l'ife's long fret and strain. Lower crept the sunshine y'-3fe' Down the lattice tall,

Till it saw its radiance fall All along the silent floor. Past the neavy close-shut door, Through the room they knew no more

Light step or cheery call.

v,

The triumphant sunshine, Flooding all it saw, Laughed at last her gaze to draw From where the phantoms.of the past An eternal shadow cast And her glances fell at last, .. ....

As In breathless awe. Where the glorious sunshine Danced,- and shone and glowed.

Where the treasured picture showed The tall cross that Btooa above All her best of life and love, And 'mid her bitter sorrow strove

To point the higher road.

"And," said the happy sunshine, "Oh, heavy eyes that mourn, Ob, heart, from its chief moorings torn, Look at the joy with which He dowers Tho wakening earth and budding flowers Trust to the God of the snnny hours, -, Nor daro In grief's keen scorn .. "To turn away from sunshlno

Nor in the sense of loss, With reckless hand aside to toss The comforting through Nature given, The trials of our way to heaven. See how the brightest gleam from heaven

Clings longest round the cross."

Plans have been filed In New York for the erection of buildings for Union Theological seminary, on Fourth avenno between Sixty-ninth and Seventieth street, to cost 8350,000.

In the Church of the Redeemer, In Chicago, on a recent Sunday, a father and son walked up to the baptismal font, each with their wife, and each presented a pal of twins for baptism. The Incident is considered most extraordinary.

Rev. Dr. Alexander Burns, at tho head of the Wesleyan Ladles' college, of Hamilton Ont., who wrote a sympathizing letter to Dr. Thomas, of Chicago, and was tried for heresy mainly on that account, lias been acquitted by his conference, tho' In explaining his views be took substantially the ground of Newmnn Smyth, denying verbal Inspiration, or that Christ's death was necessary to appease tho wrath of the Father, or that eternal conscious torment Is the necessarily correct Interpretation of tho scripture metaphorical teaching respecting future punishment.

On the Chicago Alliance ceasing to be a religious paper tho Interior says: "How we all do fade as a leaf I What a contrast thero was between tho beginning and the ending of that.phenomenon of a religious newspaper. It startod'out with six stalwart and vociferous theologians as editors. They dropped off, ono by one, like sweet, ripe, wrinkled persimmons. _It was a rainbow, spanning the whole sectarlan circle, and yet so gradually did the religion fade that we deemed It dying when It slept, and sleeping when it died— that is the rainbow! One Is liable to get his figures mlxod when dealing with nilxtures." The paper has practically gone over to ox-Rev. Georgo C. Miln, who will edit it.

A fair specimen of the bosh and tho absence of clear or consistent thought which charactorizo the sentimental liberalism of our day, Is found In Dr. O. W. Holmes poem at the late Unitarian festival In Boston, where ho speaks of

The saints who nover learned to pray, Tho friends who never spoke His name. So, too, the claim that Emerson was "a Christian tlielst." If this means anything, It means that he was a Christian and if so, why not say It? He was a Christian—that is, he accepted the claim and tho doctrine of Christ or he was not. If he did so secelvo Christ, he was of courso a thelst If he did not, he might be a tlielst but certainly was not a Christian. In reality, these vague unthlnkers imagine that by adding on the word "theist" they in some way modify tho force of tho word Christian.

Tho natural desire during tho heated term to get away from tho busy hum or olty life and nestle down in .the quiet of some rural retreat or enjoy the renovating breozes on the seashore effects the pulpit with the pew, and no ono can find fault with the pastor who takes and enjoys his summer vncatlon like a rational man. The talk of keeping the churches open for tho poor who can not leave town is sostheticnonsense,for none of them will attend church in fashionable or wealthy neighborhoods if they are poor, and all who are ablo will spend tho day In needed recreation or in obtaining evon momen tary changes of air.'' The above aro the words of tho New York Herald and to show their general acceptance It gives lists of the principal churches In the city, tells thro' what months they will be closed and Where the pastors will be.

Since his prime idea of duty was that a man should do the best he could for himself here and now, whatever might bo the consequence in the hereafter, says the Sunday School Times, value Is added to Prof. Darwin's recently published estimate of wine and tobacco in moderate use. He wrote to a gentleman, saying drink a glass of wino dally, and beliove I shoald bo better without any." "I havo taken snuffall my life, and regret that I ever acquired the habit, which I have often tried to leave off, and have succeeded/or a time. I am seventy-three years old." Poor old man I Boys, there Is warning for you. Let wine and tobacco alone while you can for If you use either of them ever so moderately, you are likely to be unable to give them up after a whilo, even though you may know you would do better without them, and would like to bo free frem their tyranny.

Tilhet's method of eopying drawings In any desired color Is thus described In the Polytechnlsches Notlzblatt: The paper on which tho paper Is to appear Is first dipped in a bath consisting of 30 parts of white soap, 30 parts of alum, 50 parts of English glue, 10 parts of albumen, 2 pnrts of glacial acetic acid, 10 parts of alcohol of 60 degrees, and 500 parts water. It is afterward put into a second bath, which contains 50 parts of burnt umber ground in alcohol, 20 parts of lampblack, 10 parts of English gluo, and 10 parts of blchro mate of potash In 500 parts of water. The papers aro noy sensitive to light, and must therefore bo preserved In the dark, In proparlng paper to make the positive print, another bath is mado Just like the first one, oxcept that lampblack is substituted for the burnt umber. To obtain colored positives the black is replaced by some red, blue, or other pigment- In making the copy, the drawing to be copied is put In a photographic printing-frame, and tho negative paper laid on it, and then exposed in the usual manner. In clear weather an Illumination of two mln utcs will luffice. After the exposure the negative is put In water to dovelopo It, and the drawing will appear In white on a dark ground In other words, It Is negative or rosorved picture. The paper Is then dried and a posltlvo made from It by placing it on the glass of a printingframe, and laying the positive paper upon it and exposing as before. After placing the frame In the sun for two minutes, the positive is taken out and put in water. Tho black dissolves off without tho necessity of moving It back and forth.

ELOQUENT TRIBUTE FIELD.

TO GAB-

Submitted to the Grand lodge of Indi ana. May 23, by Judge Thomas B. Long, and Adopted by Unanimous

Rising Vote. Masonic Advocate.. When, but a few short months ago, the bullet of the assassin was fired against the bodv of the President of our great Republic, a mighty throb of pain, traveling on the wings of light ning, convulsed' millions of human hearts throughout the length and breadth of tne land. Death, sometimes in seeming so generous and merciful, followed not at once the cold and cruel blow. Had it done so, the character of our brother, James A. Garfield, would not have been left in all its perfect fullness anu imperishable legacy to mankind. In view of this one instance alone, how wonderfully striking, are the lines of Cowper's sublime hymn: "God moves In a mysterious way,

Ills wonders to perform." Yet, at what a terrible sacrifice, to our imperfect conception, was the very halo and glory of our brother's mind revealed. All the nobility of character—for which the world may entertain unending pride that such a man once lived— seemed to culminate in tho closing davs of his eventful life. Yet how noble were the years of usefulness and goodness that preceded. -Let us review them in the briefest terms. A mere child in years and strength, he engaged in labors far beyond nis age, in the assistance he even then considered he owed his mother in her widowhood and indigence, and to procure for him self the scanty schooling of thoso early days. A youth, he sought severer toil in* the humblest calling to aid him in tho further performance of these filial duties, and the progressive acquirement of the education he so ardently desired. As a young man he reached the goal of that ambition, and presided over the institution that had moulded him into a perfect fitness for its service. To us, who revere him as a brother, the very name of that seat of learning is familiar and dear for as ho once was, so may wo also know that here we, too, are students in the school of Hiram. The honors of public life soon fell like beautiful mantles upon the shoulders of his manhood, to bo worn with grace in the duties of the hour but when his country's existence was imperiled, and the sound of the trumpet was heard in the land, ho threw off these robes of comparative ease to put on the helmet and take up the sword. How nobly he wielded it will be shown, even better than we know it, when the thrilling events of those years of daring and high emprise are written in the truest and loftiest terms of enduring history. "When peace returned, the Senate of his country called him to her most important counsels, from whence the voice of the people, selecting him from amongst the greatest statesmen of the age, advanced him to the highest honor the world can bestow.

But before these blooming laurels had crowded upon his brow his humble knocks were heard at the door of the Lodge, and ho became our brother by those solemn and irrevocable ties that bind us loreyer to each other. Then and thenceforth there budded and bio ssomed in his just and generous heart a mighty love for the institution of Masonry—a love that, ever after, grew with his growth and strengthened with his strength. The general history of our kindred Orders informs us that he became, in time, a Royal Arch Mason and a Knight Templar, and that when he assumed the last great trust of his life all his memberships were transferred to the Nation's Capitol, that his Masonic home might be in his very sight and presence.

Thus, with his family about him, and surrounded at but little greater distance by fraternal associations so dear and sacred, and exalted to the highest pinnacle of'his reatness and fame, he stood a signal gure in the sight of the world. But it has been saia, with what seems to bo almost inspired truth, that Death loves a sliininjy mark. When the missile of the destroyer struck this grand form, the pang was transmitted to the hearts of countless million*. The world stood awe-struck at his bed of death, and watched through the long days and slowly moving weeks, now encouraged by hope, then sunk in despair, until the pall of death fell solemnly over the last sad scene.

The census returns give 155,000,000 pounds as the amount of wool clipped from 35,000,000 sheep in the United States in the springof 18S0. This shows encouraging progress since 1870, when the reported clip was 10,000,000 pounds from 28,000,000 sheep. Nearly a fourth of the entire production of 1880 is re turned from two States—namely: Ohio, which is credited with 25,000,000 pounds of wool and 3,000,000 sheep, and California, which shows nearly 17,000.000 pounds of wool and 4,000,000 sheep. In 1879 the clip of California was 11,090,000 and that of Ohio 20,000,000 pounds. After these two States come, in 1880, Michigan with 12,000,000, New York 9,000,000, Pennsylvania 8,000,000, Missouri 7,000,000, and Wisconsin 71,000,000 pounds. The rapid growth of sheep raising in Texas is shown by the fact that tne number of sheep increased between 1870 and 1880 from 700,0®0 to nearly 2,000,000, and the amount of wool shorn from 1,250,000 to nearly 7,000,000 pounds. The increase in the production of woll has always been marked in Michigan, Missouri, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin but in New York the reported clip of 1880 was more than 1,500,000 pounds less than that of 1870, while the number of sheep was nearly 500,000 smaller than in 1870.

The Ideal Indian.

The Osages are said to be nearest to ideal Indians in appearance among the remaining tribes of Indian Territory. The average height of the men is fully six feet, and their features are strongly characteristic. "They retain the savage dress," savs a correspondent of the Providence Journal, "shave their heads except a ridge of bristles on the top, like a cock's comb, streak their faces with red ochre and their bodies and arms with dark lines. When the three vouths presenting thiB appearance dashed up to us on their ponies, it looked as though we had got among the native aborigines at last, They extended their hands with a smiling greeting that showed their white teeth, and uttered the talismanic 'Ilowgh,' to which we responded with an attempt at equally deep-lunged emphasis, and then they clattered on, sittiftg straight on their horses' backs and riding like centaurs." In the same manner, however, the writer describes 80inetning far less picturesque and more civilized—the spectacle of a nativo constable lugging a drunken Indian to jail, and clubbing him, policeman fashion, on the way. He also heard some squaws singing selections from "Pinafore" in a most dreadful manner, to the accompaniment of a painful accordeon.

Eer Father Talked Too Much. Troy Times. The four-year-old daughter of a well-known divine in this city is disposed to be dictatorial in a cunning way with her elder, brothers and sisters. While she was acting the wee tyrant over her brother, the other day, her father decided to rebuke her for the first time, and eloquently set forth to her the kindness of her brother and her duty to be kind in return. When the exhortation had ended, the little auditor, with tearful eyes, and frame trembling with emotion, strode up to her venerable sire, and, striking an attitude, said between her sobs: "Y-you use too m-many words." The father vainly endeavored to suppress his laughter as he went to his study and proceeded to cut down his next Sunday's sermon.

those days and weeks of suffering? Ho alone was calm, peaceful, uncomplaining. No sign of faltering in faith or courage, no word of censure against even tne wretch who laid him low. Mankind has witnessed many scenes of personal grandeur and sublimity in suffering, anguish and death, but the uncomplaining patience of his last hours is without a parallel in the annals of the world. Wnen he died, the voice of mourning pervaded every place where civilization and Christianity had taken seat. In the solemn presence of this death stood peasant and prince, scholar and poet and statesman and monarch and tho noblest queen on earth laid her garland of flowers upon his lifeless breast.

How deeply, then, must we lament the loss of this, our great and good brother! With what anguish must wo say—and Baywitli endless regret: His work was not finished, yet his column is broken! With what a pang must we excla'm: His. death was untimely, and his breth ren mourn 1 Regret like ours, though silent after a time, is as enduring and solemn as the tomb that hides him and our sorrow, after its first great cry, as-voiceless as the midnight hour. But the tomb and the darkness are not for his undying spirit. He rises from the one to everlasting life he passes from the other into the glories of Paradise What then, brethern can we do in this overwhelming event? Only this: Let us imitate him in his virtuous con duct, his unfeigned piety to his God, and his inflexible fidelity to his trusts that like him, we may welcome the grim tyrant, Death, and receive him as a kind messenger sent by our Supreme Grand Master to translate us from this imperfect to that all-perfect, glorious and celestial Lodge above, where the Supreme Architect of the Universe presides.
