The action of the house day before yesterday in voting not to adjourn over the holidays was only a bit of jollity it seems. Yesterday the resolution to adjourn was passed.

It is reported front Washington and in this instance the report is based on more than the usual amount of foundation, that changes sire to be made in the cabinet.. One is tins retirement of Secretary Folger or perhaps his appointment to ft more congenial position.

Telephone wars are all the rage. One has been inaugurated at Indianapolis hy the introduction in the city council of a. resolution reciting that inasmuch as tho telephone, company "is making unjust demands" ill requiring three month's rent in advance that tho city attorney prepare an ordinance repealing all the privileges of the company unless the demand is reducod to one month's rent in advance.

The verdict in the Sturhi murder trial was peculiarly one of common sense rather than of law. There was no plea of self-defense, and the only one otlered, that of insanity, practically had no weight in determining the verdict of the jury. The woman had been abused beyond all endurance by Stiles to such an extent that her personal character and manner of life, instead of weighing against tier, emphasized the sympathy extended to her. It. was, in fact, a verdict of provocation.

No one should be hasty in condemn ing the slain president by reason of the correspondence now being published at tho instigation of Dorsey, who is trying to save himself from the penitentiary. "While it is true Garfield corresponded with Dorsey, and perhaps with worse men, it does not prove Oarfield to have been anything else than wind we have known him to be, as regards the uprightness of his character. There iy one point which should not lie overlooked. it is that while Porsev was continually making suggestions and vehemently opposing certain actions of the slain president, the latter did not observe the suggestions and proceeded in doing what I orsey opposed.

The testimony given before the New York state senate committee regarding "corners," "futures," "watering of stock" and the. manifold ways of present day speculation is fruitful of much thought. The scope of the evidence and the character of the witnesses as to their sources of information have broadened the inquiry until in some phases it has become ridiculous. One clergyman quoted the new testament to prove it was wieked to "corner" grain Ooulil and cone's moral obloquv regarding wild speculation was made public in their innocent and enthusiastic defense of tt course which ruined other men and homes and Mr. l?i*eeher, seeing the laughalilo burlesque of the whole examination introduces his statement with the remark that, his profession was to "deal in futures."

AVe are inclined to the belief that .Air. lleeehor was the most valuable witness, lie drew his reasoning from the fountain source when ho said the law of prices was the law of brain that it was human nature for men to he striving to overreach one another, and that this being the fact public sentiment, formed by such human nature, would support "corners," "futures" and tho like. Rufus Hatch put it in another way. lie believed in corners when he was in the combination.

Tt is the rushing, adventurous trait of the people of this country which causes the rivalry and combinations that in turn make "corners." It is that spirit in the desire for surpassing wealth that makes us live too fast against which evil Herbert Spencer recently warned the people of this country. It is the effort to overreach some one else, and it is doubtful if any law can be enacted that can not be overreached aa well. An

7W&"

attempt is being made to ejose out the bucket shops, but in St. Louis a paint brush changed the name to a "brokers' office and tho law was evaded. The U. S. Senate judiciary committee, in perfecting a bankrupt law, has inserted a section which makes It an act of bankruptcy to sell or contract to sell anything that is not in possession within threo days. This on the face of it would prevent tho sale of "May corn" or "February wheat," but it is safe to say if enacted both of these familiar quotations will remain in the market reports.

There is, as stated, much room for study in this matter, and the more it is inquired into, tho more plain will become the fact that

Bome

other means

than direct prohibitive legislation wil be found necessary in checking specu lation in the shape of "corners" and ',futures."

IBISH EMIGRATION.

To add to tho unhappiness ol tho Irish and.the perplexities of the English government, there i,s the prospect of famine among the crowded and destitute population of Donegal, Kerry and Connaught. The wretched peasant, whose greatest plenty lias been but a bare subsistence, can anticipate for months to come, nothing but hunger and cold. AVere the utmost demands of tho Irish agitators granted by England, to prove as beneficial as expected, there can be but little lem poral prosperity for years to come for such aa those now crowding 100,000 acres in Donegal with 30,000 tenants, wresting tho barest existence from badly cultivated poor land. To riso from the degradation and squalor to which they have been reduced would require years assisted by the most generous aid in patronage and gifts, if the comfort of the poorest Irish with good food, decent clothes and education for their children must wait till they can draw it from the ground, even the cancellation of rent arrears, the reduction of rents and rates, and government loans will not remove the curso of poverty from the poorer classes for many long years. In short, come weal or woe to Ireland, misery and death stare a hundred thousand in the faco. To tho wretched peasant who sees his family huddled in a hovel with a patch of ground around it of one, two or three acres on which tho blighted vines tell of no food for this wintor and

110

seed for the

spring planting wo imagine that any political privilege ofl'erod to-day would be a stone where bread was wanted. We do not wonder that Lord Derby in a speech at Manchester said that emigration was desirable and that the government would lind it profitable to expend several millions to aid it. This is an admission that Lord Derby, in common with fellow-peers, is at a loss to know how to settle the Irish ditliculties. It is a confession of impending danger when it becomes necessary to provido for removing a large population to a foreign land yet doubtless it arises from a pure philanthropy which sees the certain poverty of a multitude either in crowded England or impoverished Ireland. Great Britain owes much of its prosperity to the large emigration to its colonies. It has immonse domains yet beyond the seas to be peopled. It can afford to allow the liberal pre-emption rights in British America (after buying the land) that we do here. AVithout considering the policy of Irish-Americans in promoting agitation in their native Hand it appears that they could alleviate suffering and rescue great numbers from inevitable want and misery by encouraging emigration, both with advico and money.

By the way, a gentleman told me tonight he had seen a letter from Mrs. Hendricks, stating that Governor Hendricks is improving rapidly, and takes the greatest interest in public affairs. This gentleman says that Mr. Hendricks has ceased to havo any ambition for tho presidency, but he is anxious to become the candidate for governor in 1SS4, not only to help Mr. McDonald, but to show" that he can carry Indiana at any time. Of course Mr. Hendricks has only to say that lie will accept the nomination to receive it by acclamation, and, in that case, the second place on the Indiana state ticket would be worth looking after, for Hendricks will undoubtedly have a place in the cabinet, no matter what Democrat is elected president.

DOHSEY's DODGE.

Ho Furnishes for Publication His Campaign Correspondence.

Trying to Save Himself From Ills rruseiit Difficulties ly Showing Ills Intimacy "With Certain Public

Men.

The New York Herald has printed a great mass of letters filling seven columns, relating to the management of the last campaign. They appear to have been furnished to show Mr. Dorscy's intimate relation with President Garfield and the other leading managers of the campaign. There aro a number from Gen. Garfield to Dorsey, asking for information and urginghim to call, and to do various kinds of work. Those from Mr. Morton show that Dorsey was made a confident in all matters of raising and disbursing funds. Following are among the more interesting:

MKXTOH, 0., August 30, 1880.

Hon. C. -1. Arthur, New York: DKAR GENERAL—It is clear to me

that we are now at the most critical point of the campaign, and the victory will be made certainly possible or seriously imperiled by our management of Indiana during the next fortnight. On what I now write I assume wo shall carry Maine in September. If we carry Indiana in October the-rest is comparatively easy. AAre shall make a very serious, perhaps a fatal, mistake if wo do not throw all our available strength into that state. I hare taken great pains to ascertain the situation of the parties there, not from extensive correspondence alone, but I have sent intelligent and trustworthy observers to various parts of the state to make special inquiries on various aspects of the contest. Let me summarize the situation as it now^ppears:

First—There is much internal disagreement among the Democratic leaders, the bitterness of Hendricks over his defeat, his jealousy of McDonald, the general unpopularity of English, the soft money record of Landers in collision with*their national platform, tho hard money views of English and McDonald, and finally the anger of the Greenbackers at the Democracy for dropping Do La Matyr, and going back on tho Greenback party generally.

Second—There is almost perfect harmony in our ranks, and much more enthusiasm than wo have seen in that state at any time since 1872.

Third—The hard times of recent vears was felt with exceptional sevorIty in that state, and the reaction which prosperity brings has been correspondingly great. Many business Democrats in various parts of the state have openly joined us on the ground that tbev feat- the prosperity will be imperiled by success of the Democracy. iWrth—From 25,000 to 30,000 voters of Indiana are members of the denomination ot Disciples, and at least half of them are Democrats. A nuiet, but very earnest movement, wholly outside the state committee, has been organized, and is being vigorously and judiciously pushed, with the strongest probability that at least 2,500 changes of votes in our favor will result.

I conclude this stimmaiy by saying that from the hundreds of reports and interviews 1 have had, hardly one admits a doubt that we cam •e.rry the state. To do this we must overcome the Democratic majority of 6,000. Our danger arises from two sources: First —From the unusually large number of doubtful voters disclosed by the canvass which is now nearly completed for the whole state. AA'hile that canvass is stronglv in our favor, it shows the field in which the Democracy will use their peculiar influences, anil in which we must confront them.

Second—From importations from neighboring states, where no elections are held in October. The recent successes of the Democracy in Indiana have been gained mainly by this means, and their money has been largely expended for this purpose. Our friends have the full census reports to aid them in checking importations. They say they will be able to secure the friendly co-operation of nearly all the railroads running into the state. They will have Lnited State supervisors appointed for the first time. I hey propose to station active and trustworthy Republicans in

all the border.%ountieS to watch^e importing" movements of the Democrats. All these plans require the employment of a largo number of men ana much money, and this brings me to the chief point.

It is indispensibly necessary^ that the means for putting these plans into vigorous execution be furnished at once. The work has been started, and must be supported promptly to insure success. I have written thus fully because I understand that our friends in New yorkare indoubtabout the wisdom of making much effort for Indiana. I am certain this is erroneous. Success in Indiana will be an immense help to New York and all other close states. Please read this letter to Morton, and if you concur in the views I have taken,urge him to act as promptly and vigorously as possible.

I went over the whole ground with Senator Dorsey when he was here en route for Chicago, and his letters since his arrival there strongly confirm my opinions. Another thing. He told me that Senator Conkling would make his opening speech in the AY est at such time and place as you and I thought best. Dorsey and New now write ine that a great convention of- Republican clubs is to be held at Indianapolis on the 15th of September, which will bring together a great assembly of the most active Republicans of at least a dozen States, and theyare very anxous to have the Senator address that meeting. In view of tho nature of the meeting and its importence to Indiana, I am stire he could do great good by accepting their invitation. If you concur please present the request to him for us both.

Please let me hear the result of your conference with Morton as soon as possible.

Very truly yours, J. A. GAKFIELD.

Mr. Filley will see you and report tomorrow. I believe you are'- .doing a grand work, and need only assure you of ny earnest continued support.

Hon. »S. IR. Dorsey, Chicago: DEAR SENATOR—Yours of the 11th

inst. is at hand. I thinkBlaine should go to the Pacific Coast, but not until after the October election. He begins in Ohio on tho 25th, and I am making a programme for him for this slate and Indiana until the election, but I will insist upon his going to California as seon as the Indiana fight is over. I note what you say of Mr. Evarts, and think we bad better have him go to Indiana, if he will, for a few days, near the end of the campaign, after the other gentlemen, to whom you refor, have spoken. Swaim is here, and reports fully of his interviews at Chicago.

Before this reaches you, you will have heard that we have succeeded in getting Gen. Grant to preside at Conkling's first meeting in Ohio, which will bo on the 25th inst.

Very truly yours, J. A. GARFIELD.

GATH'S GOSSIP.

Tho Publication by Dorsey of tho Garfield Corrrespoiulenco The Sale in York of Costly Diamonds,

NEW YORK, Dec. 18.—Dorsey's batch of letters to and from Garfield excite uo surprise, except among persons disposed to think that Jesus Christ, AVashington and Garfield were as bad as themselves. He believed even in Judas Iscariot, and let him sop of His dish, saying, however, "He will betray me."

Godkin remarks: "Ex-SenatorDor-sey is making a desperate effort to direct attention from liis participation in the star route swindles by entertaining the public, about his share in the management of the presidential campaign of 1881, General Garfield's appreciation of his efforts, his friendly correspondence with the presidentelect, and the advice he gave the latter with reference to the formation of a cabinet. Tho correspondence, interspersed with oral remarks from Mr. Dorsey, who recently asked the court for an adjournment of the star route trial on account of his physical sufferings rendering him unable to attend the court, but now proves a very ready talker, fills nearly two pages of this morning's Herald. From the letters printed it appears that General Garfield had a high opinion of Mr. Dorsey as a campaign manager, and expressed himself as much gratified by his skill, energy and success. It appears, also, that he, after the election, invited Dorsev's opinion and advice with regard to the manner in which his administration should be organized but it is an historical fact that, while Garfield invited and received Dorsev's advice, he failed to do the things Dorsey most earnestly urged him to do, "and he did the things Dorsey most vehementlv protested against. Tho statement that Garfield offered to Dorsey the secretaryship of the interior so far rests upon Mr. Dorsev's own assertion, ana we see good reason to disbelieve it until it is supported bv documentary evidence or other indisputable testimony.

The number of very costly diamonds sold in this country this year has been remarbably large, the demand being unprecedented for exceptionally line stones, both Bingle and matched.

Recently phje^pal cases as^hisfa aa $1,000 per/ cani£ has be«fa paid for diamonds in this city in the trade, and they have been sold for this price by one dealer-to another. -Very high prices hare been given by our dealers for rare stones in ..Europe, and when these diamonds have, been brought here they have been resold in tho trade at prices which have astonished the sellers themselves. Then, an enormous quantity of the cheaper diamonds have been worked up this year in all kinds of gold and other jewelry. There has also Teen a strong demand for rubies and sapphires, which have advanced greatly in value, and there has been a rise in the cost of fine pearls.

Special to the Express. EOCKVILLE, Dec. 10.—John Decker, one of Ferguson's teamsters, was quite seriously injured yesterday while engaged in loading a log. The log rolled back on hi in and caught his feet, mashing one badly and severely bruising the other. The accident will confine him to his house for some time. It is, too, very unfortunate, ns he has a large family depending on him, and he is a poor man. Here will be need for charity.

Miss Love Cross is seriously ill. Hiram E. Hadley was this morning sworn in as deputy prosecutor.

Mrs. Chas. Kutledge and one of her children are down with the typhoid fever.

Mrs. J. L. Boyd slipped on the ice yesterday and fellj fracturing her wrist very badly.

The grand jiffy will be called at the coming session of tbe circuit court, to attend to the murder cases.

Miss Kate Hammond, of Greencastle, will be one of the holiday visitors to Eockville. Slio will visit the Misses Coffin.

Sheriff Musser yesterday. took Jas. Steffy, of Adams township, to the insane tjpylum. Steffy's insanity was of a mild form, caused by catarrh. Ho is 18 years old.

The scarlet fever has broken out again in town. There are cases in the families of J. N. McCampbell, Elwood Hunt and AVm. Good. None are dangerous as yet.

Bill Marvin was seriously hurt, Saturday, by being thrown from a business house by the enraged proprietor. Bill, as usual, was drunk, and insulted some ladles by his remarks, hence his rather too forcible ejectment. A few more such salutary lessoas will teach him to behave himself.

At tho Diamond club dance last Friday night thoro were lady floor managers, and the ladies otherwise played tho part of gentlemen. It was evidently a scheme on the part of the boys to seo who are the most popular, and who should act the part of wall flowers. Each man, however, now swears he danced all the time.

It is said a project is on foot looking towards the forming of a stock company here to manufacture wagons. A number of our most enterprising and wide awake capitalists have signified their willingness to subscribe from $500 to $1,000 for the purpose: It is the intention to start a manufactory that will employ 100 men. Just such institutions as this is what Rockville needs now, and it is to be hoped this is not a mere rumor that will come to naught.

Buck Stout the Darlington murderer, was brought here on Saturday last by Sheriff Wilhite, of Montgomery county and placed in the custody of Sheriff Musser. Stout has obtained a change of venue from Montgomery, claiming he could notget justice there. He has also obtained a change of judges and Judge Hiller, of Indianapolis, will try his case. Parke county now has two murderers in her jail and may have two executions in tne near future. Norton, who killed AVm. Hensley, at Lodi, is awaiting his trial for the same. So far as now known both of these trials will come up at the next term of court, which convenes on the 25th inst. The jail is nightly guarded as it is feared a mob from Darlington may come down and attempt to lynch Stout, such threats being freely made while he was at Craw*, fordsville. Our jail is a new one, built on the latest and most improved plan and a mob would nave a jolly time getting into it. Sheriff Musser claims he can defend it against 500 men. AA'hile there is no special fear of the mob, it is well enough to be on guard. If they come they will be hotly received.
