The Hon. I?. B. F. Peirce begins his canvass of Vermillion county on Monday next, closing Friday evening at Clinton.

Thomas Harper threatens to have tho heart's blood of any one using his namo in conncction with the St. Clair or criminal court business. We see no way of avoiding the spilling of blood.

Tho press dispatch giving an account of the shooting match in South Carolina, after stating that several men were killed and a number wounded, laconically concludes, "It is believed the trouble is over."

We put Indiana against the world for a big story. In the reports of the earthquake shock day before yesterday at St. Louis and the towns in'Illinois it was staled that the shock came at four o'clock and lasted fifteen seconds. The Vincennes man, not to be outdone, put the earthquake at three o'clock and it lasted three minutes.

The Gazette's Clinton correspondent Bays John Lamb had a splendid meet ing there Wednesday evening, and may be expected to carry that county —reliably Republican—by a handsome majority. John's "magnetism" will have to materialize wonderfully to do this, as he wasn't able to "buck" against a traveling show Monday night.

The porte is trying its hand at diplomatic messages. The diplomacy in this instrnce should bo given the meaning generally awarded i. e. artful lying. The porte assures Lord Granville of its distinguished considera tion and thanks England for suppressing the rebellion in Egypt. The postscript, however, is like the postscript of a woman's letter—the most important part. The porte is constrained to believe that England should remove it's forces from Egypt.

The Brazil Register, commenting on the arrest of Bill Hicks, thus touches on "the law's delay" in this county, for which the Criminal Court is responsible:

He Is now under bond to tho Vigo Criminal Court, but has enjoyed liberty in the full meaning of the word, when an early date should have been llxed for his trial. Cltixens have marvelled at the undeflnable Influence of a rough and coarse-mind-ed criminal, which seemed ever to get him out of his scrapes. But he will now geta galling taste of Clay county legal administration, between which and that of Vigo there is some dlfiercnee.

Our worthy contemporary in reply to our remarks upon an article in the Banner of Saturday's issue in which lie advises Republicans to vote for the Democratic candidates for legislature states once more his objections to the very explicit reply of Messrs. Hudson and Lee to the question from the temperance organization.

His principal objection is to what they did not say. The Banner says: "Tho Express thinks we willfully misrepresent Col. Hudson and Mr. Lee. This is not the case. After reading their letters there is not the least doubt in our uiind that

both of them are an favor of prohibition. Submissiori'at a special election means prohibition." Dear- Banner, why not speak the whole truth and nothing but the truth

Our candidates simply said they referred tho question to the people. They said nothing about their views on prohibition. Submission was the point alluded to in the query and answer. Couldn't you see that or did you not wish to? And submission at a special election means prohibition it is said. Not unless theproliibitionists have the votes. The Banner, notwithstanding its statement that the obnoxious letters are plainly in favor of prohibition, further on says that Hudson and Lee dodge the question for they have not said whether the amendment is right or wrong.

We w?uld like to know what the Banner really thinks of the letters, for here are two decidedly opposite views.

Messrs. Kester and Schloss are opposed to sumptuary laws, and say so, we are told. We have the Banner's word for it, but not theirs, but still we are ready to believe that they are willing to take the job of deciding what the people want or do not want, without the formality or expense of troubling this helpless people that don't know its own mind.

The Banner's parallel between the submissionists and the pro:slavery party iB quite parallel. It is very true that slavery men wanted to leave the slavery question to the states, particularly to slave states. They were willing to leave it to the people of Kansas especially at the time when they could run a few thousand voter over the line from Missouri. But the action of the Republican party in forcing the decision that the territories should be admitted only as free soil states is a different thing from the settlement of amendments to the state constitution effecting various matters of the state's internal economy. It is admitted that some points are pertinent to interference by the national government, and others are not.

If we claim that the people of this State have a right to settle any amendment proposed we do not feel at all hampered by our previous belief

011

the rights of the National Government in the territories for they do not conflict. Neither do the views of the Banner conflict very much. They are very plainly: Opposition to the prohibitory amendment in particular, opposition to its submission to the people at a special election, or any other election, and opposition to the election of Col. R. N. Hudson and Mr. Leo as representatives of the Republican party in the next legislature, from this district. We admit the opposition but expect to elect the gentlemen all the same.

THE LABOB QUESTION.

The various platforms promulgated this season have a little plank dedicated to the labor question. This attention is bestowed by both parties, for even if it is proposed to let any subject severely alone, politicians find it convenient to pre-empt an issue for future use. That there has been but little legislation affecting the relations of labor and capital is due to the small need for it until very recently, andthat there may be but little for some time arises from the complications besetting such a problem. There is no comparison between the difficulties filling the lives of the working classes of Europe and those of our more favored people. The great fields of labor, the rapidly enlarging internal improvements, and the development of new enterprises have absorbed almost entirely the supply of labor, though continually augmented by the rush of foreign emigration, The inequality of fortune and position known in tho.old country has not existed to any great degreo until within a few years, and no humble toiler, while secure of a living, a home and a prospective fortune was oppressed by the overshadowing wealth and influence of a moneyed or titled magnate.

Tho great changes in the relative positions of the multitude that lives on daily wages and the smaller number which controls accumulated capital and the advantages of concentrated influences are becoming marked and are due to various causes that arc more incidental than the result of positive effort in this direction. Theliistory of great wars shows the enriching of certain classes to be a result, and this was so in our costly war. The concentration of large populations in small areas leads to the firmly fixing in a position of dependence and poverty, from which the difficulty of escaping in creases, of a numerous class. Great administrators, financiers and merchants once embarked in enterprises that.arc well organized and prosperous will accumulate vast fortunes that grow as does compound interest. An established interest strengthens with age and the value of the good will of an old successful busiLess attests this. With the building up of a great business, which will become more of a monopoly as its success grows, comes the struggle of its proprietors against the attendant leaks and drains upon its income. The balance sheet is examined to reduce expenses. The large payments for labor are often the first to be reduced. Labor, wear and tear, profit and loss, interest and taxes have the same impersonal aspect and each are cut down \vitl\ the same impartiali: ty if possible.

It must be admitted that the weight of riches outweighs the protestof landless labor, that the element of sympathy does not enter into the struggle between the rich and poor. That the masses of laboring men often stand at the threshold of prosperity but remain without as they crowd the great cities, does not affect the merits of a case involving under-paid laborers. To legislate efficiently npoivthe issues between the two classes of men, paying and paid, will need great wisdom and carefully weighed measures. We should regret making the question a "shibboleth" of a party—but if it rests with a

party, surely it will "be'/with the one that has dignified labor in this country by making it all free and removed the competition of slave labor from the path' of freemen—with a party that has both the will and intention to meet the issues in a spirit to protect interests that are seemingly, conflicting, but really mutually dependent. fi

Peorlc Transcript. Protectionists there are like Sam Randall and Dan Voorhees In the Democratic party but they stand in open opposition to the overwhelming majority of their fellow leaders. They also stand convicted by the Illinois Democracy of supporting unconstitutional measures. And, in Congress, when they vote upon the tariff question they necessarily record themselves on the Republican side.

A waiter in a Paris restaurant was a clever juggler, and his feats of tossing plates gained him extra fees from the amused guests. Stimulated to fresh endeavors, ho acquired a trick of seeming to swallow a fork but at this he was not expert, and a spoon inches long slipped down his throat in dead reality. A dangerous and difficult surgical operation was nil that saved his life.

M. II. Geoflroy has brought before the Academic des Sciences of Paris a specimen of wire clothed with asbestos and threaded through a leaden pipe, for the prevention of fires whero electricity is employed for lighting.

Tho Inhabltantsof Corsica have provided stronger proof that they could exterminate the bandits of their country if they desired to, but refrain because they have no sympathy for the foreigners who are plundered.

Ho Is for tho preset restricted to a milk diet but he looks forward to a return to an ordinary fashion of life, and even to a possible visit to Russia next year.

ALL SORTS-

Speaking of a rather soft young swell a Brooklyn girl said: "His mind isn't altogether thin, but quite thick in some places like a porous plaster."

Syracuse Herald: An improved order of Red Men are holding a convention at Easton, Pa. That is the sort that appears to bo needed down in Arizonv.

Syracuse Sunday Times: "Can you find room for a scribe on your paper?" "Not unless you want to suhscribe." And again was that scholarly youth crushed.

Norrlstown Herald: A New York man, desiring to commit suicide, shot at himself four times without hitting. He will probably bo given a position on the American Rifle Team In the next internaal shooting match.

Old gentleman (looking at a very bobtailed horse): "Bless me! how short they have cut his tall." Attendant: "His master is a member of tho Society for the Protection of Animals, sir. In this fashion ho will not annoy the poor flies."

Savannah Times: A Chicago minister makes a note of the fact that he has never seen a lady reading a newspaper in a street car. Well? He lias never seen a lady smoking on a car platform, either, has he? It simply goes to show that a lady is no gentleman.

Speaking broadly, says the Saturday Review, there arc three classes of inhabitants in an hotel the lowes|, those who dine nt the long table of the table-d'hote, say, at 6 o'clock the middle, those who dine at the same hour, but at a little separate table in the window, pay a franc ahead extra, and have all the dishes handed to them last the highest, those who dine two hours later on the half cold remains of the 6 o'clock dinner, at three franks ahead extra. It is characteristic of our new democracy that rank here varies inversely with the goodness of the dinner.

Mrs. Gen. Wallace Visits the Harem. Mrs. .pen. Lew Wallace has been permitted to see the great beauty of Prince Feramorz's harem in Turkey. Two wonderfully ugly eunuchs met the visitor at the iron gate of a beautiful garden and conducted her to a large room rather barren of furniture, but hung with fine eastern draperies. Here she found the prince's latest acquisition, whom she thus describes in tlie Independent: "Among the billowy cushions and vaporous veilings rose the young face. Oh, what a revelation of beauty! uplifted in a curious, question ng way to see what manner of women these are who come from the ends of the earth with unveiled faces, and go about the world alone, and have to think for themselves— poor things! The expression was that of a lovely child waking froip summer slumber in the happiest humor, ready for play. A sensitive, exquisite face, fair as the first of women while the angel was yet unfallen. A perfect oval, the lips a scarlet red, and oh! those wonderful Asiatic eyes—lustrous, coal black, long rather than round, beaming under joined eyebrows."

A Woman Who is to Wear Trousers." San Francisco Chronicle. Yesterday the Social Science Sisterhood, of which Sister Stow is president, held its second annual conference. Sister Stow hastened to announce that she would wear trousers on the 1st of Janiiary. She said: "I shall wear the trousers in public. I called on the chief of police and told him of my intention, and asked him if I could count on the protection of.the force, but like a man he refused it. But I defy the police, and lam determined to" discard the petticoat trousers are woman's by right and history. I call them trousers because I don't like tho word pantaloon, nor what it means. Pantaloon is from two words signifying 1'to cover the heel,'and as man's heel is anythingbut a handsome object, he's welcome to it. Mine, my trousers, not my heels, are made with a 1 pleat, and descend just below the line of beauty in the calf of the leg, just where the dresses of young erirls come and if j'oung girls wear their dresses there, why should not old girls adopt the same fashion?"

The Only Available Westerner. Gath's New York Letter. Speaking last night to a distinguished Republican editor, whose chariics are by no means strained in favo? of Mr. Blaine, he said: "How came l?ou to light on General Ben Harrison of Indiana, as a Republican presidential quantity? The same thing hasten passing through my mind ever since the death of Garfield. Harrison," continued this gentleman, "is unqtestionably the only man in all the Western states of the quality that presidents ought to be made of. I m«an, of course, on the Republican ade. There is only one other man in the west, and he will hardly stand comparison with Harrison in filer, tone, and magisterial nature, and tlat is Mr. Windom. But Windom las not got out of his financial and stite reputation, while Harrison is a naoe strong in the traditions of the Whig and Republican parties. I do not mean to say," he remarked, "that there -s any movement for Ben Harrison, bat if the nomination goes to the west he will be "among the first men studied. I know of nothing at all that stands in his way for president. It lies with the western states, and there of courf®, the administration is laying pipe for its renomination."

Savannah News.

Cant. Anderson, of the Swedish bark Harald, which arrived at Tybee on Tuesday night, reports that on Sept. 14, in longitude 73°, latitude 30°, lie passed the derelict schooner William IT.

Moseley. Only the deck and about three feet of planking were left, with the cabin and bowspit and a small piece of the foremast and capstan forward. Capt. Anderson states that there was a school of sharks around the wreck. He endeavored to approach the wreck to ascertain if there were any bodies about, but the sharks clustered so thick about the vessel that he found it necessary to beat them off with oars, and was fearful that they would swim under his vessel and occasion serious trouble, even if they did not upset her. They were very vicious, and tho print of their teeth is seen in liis oars.

A well-dressed woman passenger on the Sixth avenue elevated train that curved out of Park place at 7 o'clock last evening startled the other persons in the car by crying out to her companion "Oh, Mary, I shall faint!" at the same time giving her skirts a severe shaking. "Ugh, there is the nasty thing," she continued, a little more calmly, as a good-sized hop-toad fell on the floor.

The toad jumped into a man's lap, and he put it into his pocket.

In a street fight at Lafayette, Tuesday night,- Jack Lenihan and liife son, Dave, attacked Fred Hoffner. Bystanders interfered, when the son came to the rescue of his father with a pistol procured at a neighboring saloon. Just as Jack pulled the trigger some one knocked his arm, the bullet striking LeniMn,j)af_fr, squarely in the forehead but, as is the case with all Democrats, that seemed to be tlie most impenetrable portion of his anatomy, and instead of killing him, as might otherwise reasonably been expected, it penetrated beneath the hide, and passing over the top of his cranium came out behind, without doing any damage.

D. L. Whitmore, foreman of the sole leather department in Falley & Hoes' shoe factory, "Lafayette, two months married, and cosily housekeeping at No. 15S Sixth street, had a row with his young wife, Wednesday. She came to the store and tried to shoot Whitmore, but a Mrs. Olds caughther arm in time to save him. He seems to have been too much married—on the European plan—and as the legitimate Mrs. W. couldn't reduce the exuberance and promiscuity of his affections, she took revenge by abreviating the trousers and curtailing the coat of his Sunday-go-to-meeting clothes. The bride denies the charge in part, but admits that she did curtail the coat a little because it was too long for the style and adds, "He has been married frequently in that suit, and if he gets married again this winter he can build on an addition to his wedding coat."

Musical Instrument Display of D. H. Baldwin & Oo. Indianapolis Nows Account of theStato

Fair.

Gigantic is the only word that will fitly characterize this magnificent display—situated in their oblong canopy alongside of the music stand on tne second floor, and which is their purmanent quarters. Elegant as is the place with gilt above and body brussels under foot, it can not over match the superb stock of musical instruments which occupies it. Nothing less than a grand is seen among the pianos —cabinet grand in uprights, square grands in that style, and the full concert and parlor grands in their kind. As to manufacture, the long familiar brands of this house are here. The renowned Decker Brothers, Steinway & Sons, Haines Brothers, J. & C. Fischer and Vose & Son. In organs, also, the old favorites, J. listey & Co., and B. Shoninger. A commendable -thing to be said of the display is.that there is nothing shown especially for the occasion, nothing but what is kept on hand -and being sold each day in their Pennsylvania street store. A feature of constant attraction is the display made in glass cases of all tho separate parts that belong in the mechanism of the pianoforte—shown in all the stages of preparation from the crude stick, up to the perfect thing tfeady for use. This stand is furnishing the exclusive program for the morning and afternoon music of Beissenherz's band, printed on a neat card, the obverse of which is a handsome illuminated card in colons—the design of the picture changing twice each day with the change of program. It is difficult to do exact justice to this exhibit, without seeming, to those who do not see it, to be fulsome but without intending to be invidious in distinctions or comparison it must be admitted that D. II. Baldwin & Co., have made the chief mercantile display of the fair, and what is still more to their credit, it is in keeping with the every day features of their Indianapolis business house, which, in their methods throughout, call for emulation, disdaining all subterfuges and double expedients, and refusing to put their recommendation any more than their warranty upon any instrument that is not strictly first-class.
