Persons leaving the city for the summer can have The Express maikd to them by leaving their address in the business office,

When readers read is the time for

advertisers to advertise. Merchants •with their stock oC fall goods will find

the Sunday Express the best medium

in the city for reaching Terre Haute

and all the surrounding region.

Mr- Heilman will run ih the First district. Certain Democrats down that way. who had dreams about a walk-over have traded thein off for "nightmare.

Tom Ochiltree, independent candidate, has commenced his campaign in Texas three weeks before his rival Tom seems to realize that lie has more than an average stock of lies to unload,

It was so condescending in the Hon? John PI Lamb, of Terre Haute, to even notice Mr. Peirce, that we trust his pride will not be unduly strained. Mr. Peirce should relieve the pressure by appointing an early day for the greatest oratorical combat of the age.

This is the largest oat crop ever known in Illinois. The total is estimated at nearly 100,000,000 bushels. The Illinois oats acreage this year was about 2,4G0,G55. The crop has been harvested in good condition, and much of it has been thrashed and marketed.

According to the Dramatic schedule, we shall have to endure Mile Rhea in this country now for the next few montliB. She is, they say, wickeder and naughtier -than Schneider. She says such tilings as never ought to be said, and does such things as never ought to be done. But our people will go, all the 6ame, and see and haar her, and blush, and wax indignant, and denounce her in burning terms, and—go to seo and hear her again for that is the moralitv of the day.

The British pension list is peculiar in many respects as compared with our own. During the year which ended July 1, eleven persons were put on the list by special acts, the sum total of the grants tt them being about $0,000. Most of these pensioners received the award as a sort of prize for literal^' achievements, very much as one might draw a prizo from book publishers for the best essay, or from the management of an agricultural fair for a superior pig. Charles P. O'Connor gats $250 because lie is a poet, and poor Prof. Watson Jones gets $750 for his medical work Rev. John Jones receives $250 for his literary services in Wal#*"—probably persuading AVelsh boys and girls to learn- the English language and Mrs. Katherine Burton is awarded $400 because her husband wrote a history of Scotland. In this country the widows of Presidents are pensioned, find the same principle is observed in England, where the widow of tho late Governor of the Bahamas has been given $250, and Miss Burke, fhe sister of tli£ Dublin victim, $2,000.

A POWEEHJI CEITIC- ,«f f,'

It seems funny that those English cousins of ours can't onjoy life unless they manage to produce a sucrrilous book every once in a while, say onee per anQumt.on the customs of America. But it appears to be a weakness of their constitutions and, as onr immigration goes on just the same and the balance of trade is in our favor, we may as welllet them enjoy their harmless amusement. We must however, out of respect for the Englishman's peace of mind, request him to be on the outlook for counterfeits. We gota good deal provoked when Dickens hit us so hard in Martin Chuzzlewit and American Notes, but we've lived long enough to admit that much he said was true, and that it didn't hurt us any to have our plantation manners photographed. But when a man undertakes to "do us up" it is only fair to stipulate that he should know something of the subject. Mr. Matthew Arnold lias just condescended to spill out some of his private views on this country's manners. Mr. Arnold is well enough known over there to a select class of people who respected his remarkable father, and are sanguinely of the opinion, which is very erroneous, that Matthew may some day accomplish something as fino as his sire.

Of course Mr. Arnold is at liberty to parade his ignorancc about America if he chooses so to do, but it seems he has gone through a somewhat narrow course of training for the job. He never was in America in his life. He never lived among its people. He takes a lofty pride in his misinformation on the subject, and yet expects his readers to swaUow his crude and lopsided ideas. When a writer of the Edinburg Review' once visited this country he called at the White House and found the President studying his books, heard a Cabinet Minister's son call his mother "old stick in the mud" and was only saved from entertaining a diplorable opinion of out civilization by the courtesy of a native, who drew on an envelope a plan of the street where the writer wanted to go. That saved us. It may alarm some people, in view of these facts, to hear that the great writer was condescending enough to say that "an American gentleman does not differ from an English gentleman."

Oscar Wilde, Esq., is pleased to announce to the N. Y. Sun: "I believe a most serious problem for the Aineri can people to consider is the cultiva tion of better manners in its people." And yet this crack-brained idiot hadn't the sense to know that he is repudiat ed by Englishmen and that nine cultivated people out of ten in this country^ regard him as a monstrous ass.

The mistake made by Mr. Arnold is, perhaps, a shade less hurtful, because so comical on its very face, than the rank injustice of some English scribblers who have come over here and expected to find the social China of America by hunting through the crockeryware. We have more good hreeding to the acre in this country, that is, it is more widespread, than in England.- But [you don't go for the first types among the ranks of the lower classes, any more than you could find the manners of the English gentry in the thugs and wharf rats of London.

With all the vulgarities which inhere in a Democracy," says the N. Y. Critic, "and which run without re straint in the United States, we caiv not accept reproof or advice from a country so snob-ridden as England Caste has eaten up English good manners. Tory or Radical, Bishop or Costermonger, all are smitten by the terible social gangrene from which the mass of Americans are free. On the life of latin races we can afl'ord to model ours, for to them base heroworship is almost unknown. With Englishmen it is part of their being, and ve venture to say that our friend Arnold would rather be seen in the company of an illiterate, unmannerly duke, than of- a cultured and well bred artisan. Until, therefore, they have cured this domestic evil, our English critics shoulp sit silent and ashamed."

There is nothing new in that recent miff over in India between the. Hindoos and Mohammedans of Calcutta. The antagonism between the Brahmans and Mohammedans of India is as strong as that between the Mohammedans and Christians of Bulgaria. According to the census of 1872 there in India 169,342,851 Hindoos, 40,867,126 Mohammedans, 2,832,851 Buddists, 1,174,436 Tikhs, 897,682 Christians, and about 6,000,000 of other religions.

The Brahmans have always maintained that only the lower grades of natives become converts to Mohammedanism, and they have for the descendants of those the same hatred they have for the descendants of the conquerors themselves. Oi the latter there arc said to be in India 219,755 Mughals or Moguis, 1,841,693 Afghans, 790,984 Savyids or Arabians, and 4,700,320 Sheikhs.

The Mohammedans complain that the Hindoos have been given more than their share of offices, and that they are generally treated with more consideration than are the Moslems. In a 1 of the outbreaks of the last few years the Mohammedans claim that the Brahmans have been the aggressors.

When you come to think of it there is something comical in the top-loftical eloquence we heard the other evening. The Inter-Oyean puts it thus:

Senator Voorliecs, in his speech at Terre Haute, raved and snorted over the corruption and general wickedness of the Republican party, as exemplified in nsking Government officials to contribute to tho expense of the campaign. The fact Is, it Is a littlo different from the old Voor-

hees-Buchanan

method. They just walked

up to an official and told him to stand and deliver. Tho Democratic party, in the days of its power, was never scrupulous on such points, and. Daniel Voorhecs, more times than ho has fingers and toes, has gone to the bottom of his wallet without an audiblo growl for contributions to sustain the party. The time nlay come when churches and political parties will refuse to take up collections for the furtherance of their work, and go out upon the highways and into the stores and workshops

to collect the necessary funds. ".But .the mlllenlal period has not'arrived1 as yet. Every evil connected with the system should be corrected, but the correction will come with a poor grace, from the class of men now making: the, loudest! complaint.

A remarkable old gentleman with a political history has come to the surface. This is Ex-Senator David K. Atchison, who, KB President of the United States Senate, was, under strict construction of the Constitution, Acting President of the United States for thirty-»ir hours between the close of President Polk's administration and the inauguration of General Taylor. He recently completed hig seventy-fisth year at his home in Clinton county, Missouri. He is fix feet two inches tali, straight as an arrow despite his age, and tips the scales at two hundred pounds. He declares his eyesight, appetite. and general health to be excellent. but is gradually losing his memory.

a

CUBBENT COMMENT.

The latest news from Rome is to the the eflecPthat the Pope is notso well as usual this summer, but then that is an old story. He seems to feel tho heat greatly, and this is quite likely the exlent of his new ailments. Rome, unlike Naples, is not a delightful city for a summer residence. Very little air stirs within its walls. The streets are narrow, and in July and August the nights are fairly suffocating.

Goo..! girls of the Methodist persuasion in New Yord now have a choice of •evils. A minister of that faith at Trenton preached a sermon recently In favor of dancing, on condition that the young girls and young men waltz alone. He lias no fault to And with the step and movement but sternly condemns the close proxemity of waltzers according to the established. Which will you do girls? Join the ballet or play Hamlet with Hamlet left out?

Over in Berlin the police have abolished llie hand-organ, monkey arid all. It was not ever thus in Berlin. King Frederick William III. was the fnthcr of street organs at his capital. Organ grinders used to work off their tunes regularly beneath the windows of tho chamber of his. Majesty, and received therefore tho untform pay of eight groschen each per concert. Once when the King broke his leg, and the doctors thought he wanted quiet, tho grinders were ordered outr-of the court-yard, but the royal patient noticed the absence or their plalntivo melodies and ordered the gates thrown open. They continued to play there till the King died in 1810.

Gen. Abe Buford appears to belong to the school of emphatic converts to the faith. It seems that tho editor of the Paris Kentucklan published that In a moment of wrath the recently regenerated General called an extortionate newsboy a scoundrel." Tho General affirms that ho merely said: "My boy, you should 'not commence this extortion so young In life damn it, if I am a Christian, it is not right." The goneral then goes on to argue that he belongs to tho church militant, and is ready to light sinners with his fists as with prayer and supplication that he proposes to travel about with a flaming sword and make it hot for saint and sinner who dares impeach his word as a high toned gentleman from Kentucky.

Guess those foreign correspondents were glad to hear that the London Telegraph had recalled Mr. Gay from the seat or war In the East. He Is the grandest news'thief on record. During the TurcoRussian war Gay became a Turk, learned the language, donned the fez, and worked his way into the confidence of Sultan and Cabinet. Then he became a lieutenant in the Turkish army. His crowning feet, however, was when ho became a sort of adviser to-the Turkish press censor, and had passed through his hands nil the telegrams and letters of the correspondents at tho front, with power to delay or suppress tlierp, and, of course, make what use he wished of them. The charge that he did make'use of them could not. be brought to trial, but Mr. Gay, though in Constantinople, beat his rivals at the soat of war on every important picco of news during the campaign.

Oscar's Cruel Designs.

Cincinnati Commercial. One more misfortune threatens the peoplo of this country. Oscar Wilde says he Is going home to write a book about us.

A Humorous View of It.

Mobile Register. There soems to be bolting and Jcicking out of the traces all over this country. Reason—the country has more great men than offices.

Will Get it in Heaven.

Paul Boyton figures up that he has saved seventy-two persons from drowning in his day and tho largest reward ever offered him was a silver-plated watch worth about $3.

In love with Himself.

Chicago Times. Sir Garnet Wolseley writes bulletins like one who had supreme.confidence in tiTe wisdom of the Government that selected the commander-in-chief of Her Majesty's forces In Egypt.

Out With the Names.

New York Sun. Lot Mr. Jay Gould look through those pigeonholes of his, and seo whether lie has not other political enemies to punish besides Gov. Cornell. He can undoubtedly bring "destruction to hundreds of the blackmailing politicians by whom he is beset and thus sccure the peace of mind which he needs.

Common Complaint.

Inter-Ocean. The wife of a Louisville police officer is afflicted by some peculiar disease so that when she sees anything brilliantly striped she temporarily loses her reason and almost goes Into hysterics, not recovering until tho object Is removed from her sight. That Is not so extraordinary. Almost any man temporarily loses his reason when he sees a brilliantly striped stocking laboriously making its way over a muddy crossing.

Various Types of Girls.

A correspondent who has studied the various "types".at OldPointComfort, Va. says that the New England girl wears a blue flannel suit, a broad brimmed hat scarlet stockings and yellow sandals, lives in ft boat, and is as brown ns a berry. The Philadelphia girl likes tennis and languages, is chary of too wide a circle of acquaintanceship, and makes her grandfathers a topic of conversation. Baltimore glrlsare pretty and bright and wear lovely clothes. Louisville girls are light and airy, anb when married are the handsomest women in the United States.

RANDOM BEADING.

Miss Woolson, whose "Anne" is tho most notable novel of the summer, is now at Baden-Baden writing another.

Mrs. Kcmble's "Records of Later Life'.' has just gone into the second edition, which seen^ to be in as great demand as the first.

Chatto & Windus, of London, have just brought out a beautiful edition of Charles Rcade's novels, illustrated by Du Maurler and Flldes.

Mr. Aldrlch has gone to Russia, and while resting from his editorial labors on

Notwithstanding the money sunk In the attempt to make the Penn Monthly self-sustaining the effort has proved a fruitless one. Its work has always been of a high grade, but the number for July was its final appearance.beforo an unappreciativo public.

Anew series of novels Is announced by G. W. Harlan & Co.. under the title of the "Kaaterskill Series," the initial volume being "A Fair Philosopher," by one of our leading novelists. .The series will bo bound in cloth,at the uniform price of 81.00 per valume.

Tho title of the new book by Miss Frances Power Cobb, is both curious and suggestive, Its origin being In the last line of Keats'fsonnet, "On First Looking into Chapman's" Homer." The title reads, "The Peak in Carien and Other Inquiries Touching Concerns of the Soul-and Body."

Whoever owns copies of the original editions of Dickens' works will be able, whenever disposed, to secure many times their original value, as the price is constantly going up. '-Nicholas Nickleby" and "Master Humphrey's Clock" have both been quoted lately at SIR, and a copy of the first and only edition of "The Story of~Llttle Dombey" brought a little over 5103.

The "Hand-Book of Politics" for 1882, by the Hon. Edward" Mc'Pherson, is ready, the record covering all the votes irt Congress, the President's action on the Chinese the Mormon and tho Geneva award questions every phase of the banking question, and the principal decisions of the United States Supreme Court, with a host of other points. Tables are alsogivon showing voting population, the condition of the public debt, banks and so on.

Three of tile oldest Arabic MSS. hitherto known have lately Been purchased by tho British Museum, tho earliest being dated A. II. 348, equivalent to A. D. 959. They contain the cause of the law laid down in Talmud, "that the sacred Scriptures must not* be written in any other than the squaro Hebrew character." It is proved for the first time that the Jews were in the habit of'uslng other characters, and there are oilier points of extreme Interests to all Oriental students.

The admirers of Mrs. Burnett, who have been counting on a brilliant picture of Washington society ate bound to admit that the scene of "Through One Administration" might quite ns well be laid In Chicago or Boston, "local coloring" beln entirely absent. Mrs. Spofl'ord Is reported to have finished a novelette, "Rock CreekChurck," In which such coloring is faithfully rendered, but Mrs. Spofford's ndjcctlves are usually too much for her, and more than likely to obliterate any natural charactcristico the scene may pos-

Mr. Johu Maloney, Indianapolis, Ind., has sold his bay colt Hamdallah (1870), by Mnmbrino, dam Linda, by Alexander's AbdaIlah, to Mr. Harley Russell for 8830. Hamdallali comes fronj good stock and ought to make his mark on the turf and in the stud"/'-.

Sam HefnerJ'a jockey at Brighton Beach, was exercising Kingston, on Sunday morning last, when the horse fell and rolled over Hefner, injuring his spine, from which injury he died at the Flatbush Hospital on Tuesday Morning. Hefner was never conscious after ho was hurt. The stable-boys and jockeys made up a purse to defray the burial expenses of their late comrade. V^V

There aro no American-bred horses In the Great EborHandicap, two miles, to be run for at the York mooting on the 23d inst. This stake closed with 33 nominations.

On Saturday, 5th inst., at the Lewis Mooting, the famous English jockey Fred Archer had six mounts and rode six winners. Ho won the Town Plate on Sunshine the Priory Stakes on Polaris the Castle Plato on La Finance the Lewis 'Handicap on Fortissimo the Mount Hnrry Plate on Alfonso, and the HaraBey Welter Handicap on Ram'sbury. Altogether this was an extraordinary feat. Archer's winning rides so far this season (August 7,) amount_ to 122 out of 313 mounts.

A match race, one mile and three-quar-ters, has been made between Mr. F. Gebhard's Eolo (t), by Eolus, dam War Song, and Capt.. W. M. Connor's Bend Or (t), by imp, Buckden,dam Kate Walker to take plaec at Sheepshead Bay the first day of the Fair meeting, provided the track Is in good condition, each to caary 11S lbs. Murphey will rldo Bend Or and Barbec Eole. It Is hoped the weather will be favorable, for such a race as this will likely be is not often to be seen.

Mr. P. Lorillafd's string at Newmarket, at last accounts, were doing good work. Iroqnls, Gerald and Sachem were taking long gallops, and Nereid, Forget-Me-Not and Aianza were doing their mile at a steady sweating psvee.. At Sliipton, Mr. J. R. Keene's string were also doing useful work. Romeo, Foxhall, Don Fulano, Bookmaker, Golden Gate, Blue Grass, Potosi and Bolero were dally galloping from three-quarters to a mile and a quarter. All of the above are In good health.

A half-mile track is to be speedily built in Philadelphia,"lecated on the Chamouni drive, and Mr. George Scattergood will be the solo proprietor. No expense will be spared in rendering the track, stands, stabling and surroundings generally in the highest degree attractive. It will be laid out after the style of Belmont Park, and the homestretch will be eighty feet wide. In short, it is claimed for tho new eaterprlse that it will be the finest halfmiie track In tho country. Mr. Scattergood intends to give a fall meeting, and will offer liberal purses therefor.

Boy Inventors.

Boston Transcript. An exchange has an article headed "Boy Inventors." We refrained from reading it because we did not wish to know who invented that terrible nuisance known as the "boy." When we reflect how our ears have been tortured by his strident whistling how our sleep has been murdered and our nerves shattered by_ his liootings, screcchings and devil-fiddlings how his whole aim has been but to make a world miserable, and in_ existance upon it intolerable, we are in a condition of that wonld not be wholesome to the originators and patentees of his torment, and for that reason we remove not the veil which hides them from our sight. No, we care not to know who those boy inventors maybe.

A Printer Prince.

Toronto-Evening News: Prince Louis of Battenburg, who is with the Duke of Connaught in Egypt, was some years ago in Canada, and on one occasion, a holiday intervening, it became impossible to get the cards of invitation for a hall on board the flagship printed. Prince Louis found the proprietor of oneof the printing oflices, went to the case, took off his coat, rolled up his sleeves,^and set up the card, afterward printing it. In accordance with a good German custom, he had been regularly instructed in the art, trade, and mystery of a printer.

THAI ARE ESTABLISHED

BY TESTIMONY.

Thomas' Eclectric Oil

is a positive, reliable and certain cure for all the ailments enumerated, as well as for many others incident to the constitution, such as Stiff Joints, i. Swelled Neck, Sprains, Chapped Hands, Lame Back, Blind and Bleeding Piles, Chilblains, Frosted Feet, Pains in the Back or any part of the system. In fact, it is a remedy that stands paramount above all others. It is equally effective externally or internally, anil all who have ever used it are never without it.

These are facts which are proved by the following testimony, which we challenge the world to contradict:

A Baptist Minister's Experience. I am a Baptist minister, nnd before 1 ever thought of being aclcrgyman, I graduated in medicine, but left lucrative practice for my profession, forty years ., ago. I was for many years asutrererfronx quinsy:—"Thomas' tclectric Oil cured me." I was also troubled with hoarseness, and Thomas' Eclectric Oil always relieved me. My wife and child had diphtheria and "Thomas Eclectric Oil cured them," and if taken In time it will cure seven times out of ten. I am confides it is a cure for the most obstinate cold, nnd if any one will take a small teaspoon and half fill it with the Oil, and then plnce the end of tho spoon into the head by sniffing as hard as they can, until the Oil falls into the throat, and practice that twice a week, I don't care how offensive their head may be, it will clean it out and cure their catarrh. Fcv deafness and earache It has done wonders to my certain knowledge. It is the only medicine dubbed patent mcdicine that I have ever felt like recommending, nnd I am very anxious to see it in every place, for I tell you that I would not be without it forany consideration. I nm now suffering with a pain like rheumatism In my right limb, and nothing relieves me like Thomas' Eclectric Oil.

We wish lo draw the attention of the reader to a few facts which we will afterwards cQnfirm by the most unimpeachable testimony. First, it is a fact that in this everclianging climate w« are one and all exposed to sudden heat and cold, bringing on chills, coughs and colds, which in their turn produce Asthma, Bronchitis, Ulcerated Sore Throat or Consumption. It is a fact that Rheumatism is getting more prevalent every day, and has become chronic with many sufferers. It is a fact that Neuralgia renders the Existence of many thonsands a life of martyrdom. It is a fact that Catarrh has horrors that no one can form any conception of," except those who suffer. It is a fact that Croup carries more children to the grave than any other infantile disease. It is a fact that we are all liable to accidents, and may get hurt or cut, burned, scalded or bruised, however careful we may be and it is a fact that we aro at all times subject to organic derangements of a serious nature, which too often terminate fatally. These are facts which bear no dispute. But the next fact is one of serious importance to the public, for every one should know it. It is this, that

What aNenr Neighbor Says, who Speaks from Experience. AKRON,

Erie County,

N. Y.,

December 6, 1881.

To tho proprietors of Thomas' Electric Oil: GENTS—Last

March I took a severe cold,

and, being negligent in doctoring it, brought the Asthma on me very severe. I could not not lie down or sleep for wheezing nnd.shortness of breath. I took this thing nnd that, and tried different doctors, but found no relief. Six months ago I sawan advertisement In the papers recommending Dr. Thoma's Eclectric Oil, sol thought I would try that,and wonderful to relate, yet nevertheless true, the first dose I took relieved me In a few minutes.and before I hnd taken onefourth of a SO-cent bottle I could breathe freely and sleep as well ns ever. It is equally as magical forcuts, bruises, burns and rheumatism. I woke up a few mornings since with such a pain in my chest, that I could not draw a long breath, My wife said, "rub on Thomas' Eclectric Oil." I did so, and in a few minutes tho pain was gone, and I have not felt it since. My wife, also, h.id a severe attack of rheumatism in the arm and side. She applied the oil with the same result. I would not be wlthgutit if 1 had to walk ten miles for it, nnd then pay S5 fo.r a 50 cent bottle. I send you this testimonial hoping you will publish it, so that suffering humanity may be relieved of their aches and pains.

Yours respectfully,

S. S.
