Terre Ilaute otters manufacturing industries unequalled inducements. Fuel is cheaper than in any city in the west, so

cheap

I hat Hour 1h manufactured at less cost for power than prevails anywhere else in the country. There are nine railroads leading into the city, making freight rates cheaper than for any city of its size in the west.

Ex-Gov. Cornell is talked of as Lapham's successor in tlie Benate from New York.

Massachusetts apparently thought Butler more disgraceful to the state than the tanning of human skins.

The thieves and burglars are making a raid on Terre Ilaute, hut the public need not he greatly alarmed while the health of the Vidocq's of the press permits them to be about, ,•

Exactly "22 "most eloquent" and "stirring speeches" had been made in Richmond up to last night in honor of the success of the bull-dozing taetics practiced upon the colored voters of the state.

I'.uller Mnhone was fined for drawing a pistol when his father was attacked in the .streets of Petersburg. None of the mob of bourbon whites who rushed out. of a hall at Danville and with pistols killed five colored men, lias even been arrested for disorderly conduct.

The Chicago Tribune sent inquiries to correspondents throughout the northwest, asking several questions as to the condition of the agricultural and mercantile interests. In summarizing the reports the Tribune says: It will be seen they are in accord with information previously obtained. That information had three leading features, namely: The country is richer than ever before. Farmer's products -are still well in first hands. The wealthier agricultural districts in the Mississippi valley have with surprising unanimity invested out of their floating capital in the new states and territories west of the Mississippi river.

Mr. Win. Reeves yesterday filed a complaint for divorce from his wife, and shortly afterward withdrew the document which alleged the grossest tilings against his wife, lie also sent a letter to the Express, which will be found in the local columns, in which he says lie was angry and had said more than was true. The Express cheerfully publishes the letter, and trusts it will be a warning to Mr. Keeves and all others to be sure they are right before they go ahead. The records of our courts are to-day overburdened with divorce cases, and many of the grievances alleged in the bills of complaints are of the most trivial character, which could have been amicably adjusted if a little good sense and ordinary forbearance had prevailed in the domestic circle. The vows taken at the marriage altar are of the most solemn character, decreed of heaven, and should continue inviolate while life lasts. A little more forbearance with each others weaknesses, a little more tenderness, a little more love and a little less unwarranted suspicion will bring peace and happiness around many a hearthstone where now only dwells misery and discord.

The Express says that none of its contemporaries have said a good word for the Courier and many of them have "sneered" at it. We shall insist that the above statement is false until the Express will name the papers and re-produeo the "sneering" articles.—[Courier.

The Express on the first appearance of the Daily Courier gave it a very complimentary notice of which it was fully deserving, and which the Courier copied after emasculating it in a manner hardly up to a high standard of journalism. But let that pass. The notice published in the Express is the best one the Courier has received from the press. Now when the Express laments the fact that a more cordial reception has not been tendered and repeats the opinion that the new afternoon daily is a very good paper, the latter in a most ungracious spirit ilies into a fury and indulges in flings which have been used to staleness by certain disgruntled shysters who, with the kind forbearance of the Daily Courier, we will remark are better known as "the gang."

In a lucid part of the Courier's diatribe the. quotation above is found. Well, the following is from the Greencastle Times of Thursday last:

The Saturday Courier of Terre Ilaute has not been happy it- wanted to have a dally, and so it started one Tuesday. The editor of the Times confesses that he has

had a weakness in that direction once or twice in his life time, but when lie looked at his bank accouht he wilted. Not even could his courage be brought up to the fighting weight necessary after a half hour's talk with the telegraph plate company of Cincinnati.

The remark about a "telegraph plate company" in the above will furnish the point to newspaper men. We will not explain it because we are reminded that the subject is unpleasant to our esteemed evening contemporary which eliminated a reference of this kind from a notice of itself. However, after seeing a dispatch (not plate), from Alexandria, Va., in yesterday's paper, dated "Alexandria, Vt.," headed "Vermont," and declaring the state had gone 20,000 Democratic, we think it would be more to the credit of our contemporary if a "telegraph plate company" edited all of the paper.

The Evansville Tribune-News, one of the fraternity of successful afternoon newspapers, on two different days, about the time the Courier made its advent as a daily publication, ridiculed the venture and intimated that the promoters were cranks who had more money than brains.

So it will be seen the Express was right when it said none of the daily papers of the state had a good word to say for the Courier and that the others sneered at it. The Express did not republish these exultingly as did onr young contemporary an article filled with party spitefulness toward the Express which it found in a Democratic paper at Sullivan. No, we bemoaned the treatment bestowed on the Courier. And it is with a view of calling universal attention to the fact the Courier is a good paper that so much space is now given to the subject. We have determined to let the public know all about the merits of the new daily and to give it plenty of free advertising (we are afraid the Courier will construe this as meaning plenty of rope), and it pains us to see it so suspicious.

A Texas Simile.

Houston Post. Oscar Wilde has faded from public view like a whisky bill that is paid.

The Bonania Kings and Their Wives. Cincinnati Enquirer. There may be some bonanza king in California or Colorado that has not some row with his wife, or wives, but we haven't heard of him.

The Prize Democrats.

Courier Journal. Gov. Butler styled those democrats who opposed him toad-stool democrats." The old man has discovered, by this time, that toad-stools are pizen.

Deserves Her Ancient Name.

Oil City Derrick. Considering the doings of France lately in Tonquin and Madagascar, it strikes us that her ancient name of Gaul is more appropriate than her present one.

Carroll E. Smith, Where Are Youl Syracuse (N. Y.) Herald. We have not yet heard from Carroll E. Smith, liar and coward, since we lashed him on Thursday. We have put, a brand upon him that no man of honor could wear for Ave minutes without, proceeding against his assailant.

Southern Eloquence Not on the Wane. Peroration in a Kentucky Court. Gentlemen, you may hang the ocean on a grapevine to dry, lasso an avalanche, pin a napkin to the mouth of a volcano, skim tlie clouds from the sky with a teaspoon, paste "to let" ou the moon and stars, but never for a moment delude yourselves with the idea that, this charming girl is guilty of the charges preferred against her.

The Case as It Stands.

Kansas City Journal. Mr. Beecher never said a truer thing than the following: "You might as well put a provision into the constitution against total depravity as against the manufacture and sale of liquor. Get the sense of a community behind a law and it will stand otherwise It will not. It Is for you and for me to cease blaming others and go to work ourselves." The trouble with the temperance discussion is that too many use it as a hobby horse by which they can ride into favor, and don't tell the truth about it. Mr. Beecher has no necessity for procuring popularity In this way, and puts the case as it stands.

A Few Choice Press Opinions on the Election. N. Y. Tribune: Yesterday's work makes Republican success possible in tlie next presidential contest. If New York, Massachusetts and Pennsylvania had all followed Ohio in going Democratic this fall, few would have been hopeful enough to believe that so overwhelmiag a current could have been turned back in a single year. Now everybody can see that fighting ground is left that the Republicans can fairly hope by good conduct and good fortune to cairy every state they had in 1880 and that, as against a party so prone to blunder and with so manychances to blunder as the Democrats, their prospect for carrying enough of them is fair.

Cincinnati Enquirer: The elections on Tuesday did not result uniformly to the satisfaction of the democratic party. Indeed, after the warm wave winch spread over Ohio on the second Tuesday of October, the political weather developed on the first Tuesday of November may be said to be decidedly cool for the democracy.

Globe-Democrat: Next year's elections now depend on the conduct of democratic congressmen during the coming session.—Post Dispatch. That settles it in favor of the republicans. A democratic congress elected Hayes in 1876 and a democratic congress elected Garfield in 18S0.

Cincinnati Commercial Gazette: The result was hardly expected by republicans, and is a surprise to democrats but it shows that the drift is not in favor of the democratic party, but away from it. It now remains for republicans to get into line and prepare for the battle of 18S4.

Something About the Cow-boy Poet Washington Republic. The poetry of William Y. Buttes, known as the "cow-boy poet," has taken a strong hold on public attention. The history of Mr. Buttes is romantic and interesting. He never went to school a day in his life. He something over thirty years of age, and his whole life has been spent on the plains. He was discovered by the Republic's distinguished contributor, David Graham Adee. while visiting Colorado last summer. A friendship grew lip between them during a cyclone one night, which deprived both of shelter. Mr. Buttes confided to Mr. Adee the fact that he sometimes wrote "lines," as he described hia poetry, and over a glass of California brandy and water Mr. Adee learned the story of Mr. Buttes' life, and obtained many of the

cow-boy's poems.

%IS* AND OTHEBWISX. 1 -3 kj & A WESTERN IXIVf DITY. This is the front gate.' The shivering moonlight played Upon its twisted hinges and the gaunt Night wind creeps wailing thro' the hare Where erst the spooning lovers clung una kissed With along three-ply kiss that made the house dog howl. Now all deserted, with a broken catch, It trails and scoops a furrow in the path, And hoarsely screams nnto the screaming wind. Alas! what transient things are human loves— A little season of soft nights and perfumed airs And gentle moonlight then Euroclydon Comes howling from the sea romance is o'er. And to the stuffy parlor we adjourn, And mindful of the aras, sit apart And wistful list the walling of the gate. --Burlington Free Press.

A Pretty Prince at School. London Truth. I suppose that when a prince goes to auniversity itis impossible to treat him altogether as an ordinary undergraduate, but I cannot help thinking that Prince Albert Victor Edward will have a very slow time of it during his sojourn at Trinity, Cambridge. Rooms in college have been provided for him, but Mr. Dalton and his secretary will be in close attendance. The prince will not attend lectures, but will receive private tuition in chapel the master's pew will be reserved for him, and he will wear a silk gown. But the most cruel thing of all is to condemn the unfortunate young man to dine in hall at the high table, among the dons, whose conversation, as a rule, is of the dullest and most "slioppj'" description.

Onr Thrifty Temperance Apostle. Lnbouchere's Truth. I see that tlie temperance people complain that Mr. Murphy, the temperance advocate, charges £100 per month for lecturing, and in addition insists upon his hotel bill being paid, which amountd to £52 per month. This latter item is at the rate of XI 16s. per diem, or taking hotel bills and salary together Mr. Murphy makes £1,824 per annum by urging persons not to waste their money on drink. How comes it that good people are so very easily gulled?

The O. & M. shops will remain at Seymour, and will not be removed to Washington, as was intended. More important shops will be built at Vincennes.

Charleston, Ills., is getting too enthusiastic over its paper railroads. It was a long time getting the narrowgauge road, and it will doubtless be a good while before the other projected roads are built.

The Chicago & Southern officials state that they will push their line south from Attica early in the spring. Rockville will be one of the points on the line. The intention is to reach the coal fields of Clay and Green counties,

There is a gap of only about ten miles and a half remaining on which the raile are not laid on the above road. This is in Gibson county. Barton township, Gibson county has voted $5,000 to aid the road, and on the 18th inst. the time will expire in which it will be available. The point of difficulty is the building of a bridge over Smith's fork, just beyond Buckskin.

A BAD WOMAN.

She joins a Cliurcli and Tempts the Pastor, but is Arrested by the Police, Kansas City Special.

Considerable excitement was created at 3 o'clock this afternoon in Kansas City, Kas., by the arrest of Laura Roberts, better known as Sister Newton. Laura was arrested on general principles as a prostitute, but under the aggravated circumstances of attempting to seduce from the path of virtue the Rev. C. J. Sage, pastor of the Congregational church of Kansas City, Kas. Three weeks since Laura joined Mr. Sage's church. Professing to have been a member in good standing away back in Kentucky, she was received into the church and the right hand of fellowship given to her as Sister Newton. This afternoon, in response to a note from a girl which asked him to meet her in a room in James street, this city,to give her spir itual advice, he visited her. While in the room she tempted his virtue. At this point Officer Harry Donnelly entered and arrested the girl, whom he soon released on her promise to leave town to-morrow. Laura is a character whose face is familiar in more than one police court in which she has appeared for street-walking, male masquerading and other like diversions in Sedalia and Kansas City. The Rev. Mr. Sage is a young man of great energy and a hard worker in his chnrch He is a temperance agitator and is ex secretary of the Railroad Young Men's Christian association. His wedding had been announced for to-morrow in Kansas City.

General Sherman's Habits. Ramsdell In Philadelphia Press. Sherman did not make use of an amanuensis or a short-hand writer, and rarely it was that a staff officer wrote a letter for him. He used to say that he did not have time to bother with clerks or stenographers. I do not know of a more fluent writer than Sherman. He never alters or erases, and his writing is as fine and delicate as a woman's. 11 is habits? Yes, I can tell you something about them a man without pride or thought in dress, he nevertheless impresses you as a rich man. In his daily walks and talks he wears no badge of rank or service. He goes to bed at about 12 midnight and sleeps six hours. In the morning a modest, though a hearty breakfast, and then to his private office to read and write.

At 9 or 10 he was accustomed to go to (he war department, working like an editor for abont six hours, and doing more work than all his staff put together, and doing it perfectly in detail. At about noon he was very liable to go ont with jolly old General VanVliet and get a glass of whisky and a bit of lnnch—then back to the department Where anything needed his attention he always went. If it was not important he sent a staff officer. Leaving the war department

at 3 oi f, he .took two ot three hours to his own 'enjoyment, walking, driving or visiting. Dining at 6, he again went to wotif in his library or office, if no engagements claimed him.

I never saw a man so fond of the opera or the play. Always in iront of the stage box, it was not unusual to see him swaying his head and body to the music of the opera and beating time with his hfinds—a great lover of music is he. With women he is very popular and can flatter with a winning tongue. He never commits excesses in drinking, eating, smoking or late hours —though heaven knows he loves a good dinner, a^good cigar, a good glass of wine or spirits, and likes to talk at night with men of brains. He is a great loss to Washington, and we are really crying onr eyes out at his going.

James Malley's Latest Manifesto. Philadelphia Press. James Malley, one of the Malley boys who were lately charged with the murder of Jennie Cramer, was acquainted some years ago with a sceneshifter in a New Haven, Conn., variety theatre. This gentleman taught the aspiring Malley to black his face and go through some double-shuffle dan ces. The case with which he learned this branch of the drama convinced him that he was cut out for the stage, but years passed without his getting any further on the road to histrionic fame. After the murder trial, during which James got a few hints for a judicial play, lie went out west and became peddler for a lightning-rod firm, probably the next worst thing to being accused of assassination in a criminal court dock. In this business he encountered the elements of two or three thrilling tragedies, and the other day the well known Philadelphia playwright, Edward J. Swartz, received the following letter from him: "LAWRENCE, Kansas, Oct. 13 "Mr. Schwartz:

DEAR SIR—I wish you would let me know how much you will charge to write a 4 act comidy dramma titled 'James Malley, the Lightening Rod Peddler.' While you were in Topeka I was speaking to you of a play. Can furnish the plot. Ellen Terri the English actrice would make a good leading lady. What do you say to Irving in the cast? There is room for Talent In The West. "Hoping soon to hear from you, I am yours truly, "JAMES MALLEV."

Blood On His Horns.

Detroit Free Press. The carcass of a fine buck deer was lying in front of a place on Michigan Grand avenue, and at different times was surrounded by small crowds of sight-seers. By and by a wandering Arab of a boy camc along, and almost the first thing he did was to dig his fingers into the bullet hole, and smear the tips of the horns with blood. "What's theexcitement here?" asked a woman with a basket on her arm, as she came pushing her way in. "They've finally got him," answered the boy. "Who?' "Why, them deer who has bin hooking so many folks to death." "Lands sake! but did he gore any body?" "Three men!" was the solemn an swer. "Whereabouts?" "Up north." "Why, my husband and son are up north!' exclaimed the woman, as she dropped her basket and flung up her arms. A man in the crowd prevented her from fainting by pinching her arm with one hand and cuffing the boy got even by walking off with the woman's basket When she had recovered her composure a little she said: £"I felt sure that I had sustained an overwhelming loss, and you needn't run after the boy. The basket ain't worth half as much as a husband and son—no, not half 1"

They Do Tilings Better There, Boston Transcript. A druggist in Paris, convicted of adulterating sulphate of quinine, has been sentenced to a year's imprisonment at hard labor and to pay a fine of 1,000 francs. His name and crime will be published in twelve political and twelve professional papers, and should he ever reopen his store, on the door will be affixed a sign, "Sentenced for adulterating sulphate of quinine." This is severe, but it is no more than just

A society has juBt been incorporated in Baltimore under the name of "The Sons and Daughters of the Knights of Four Men of Baltimore City and the State of Maryland." Its object is to assist the members and their families in cases of illness and death.
