Free trade but not a free ballot is the attitude of the democracy. ^l

The Gas Company and the Electric Light Company of Kvaneville have been consolidated, and the question is as to which absorbed the other.

Mr. Hendricks started for Europe yesterday. There is no pressing need of democratic presidential candidates, and Mr. Hendricks will not be missed.

The entire Republican press, and half of the Democratic press, agree that the Democracy has blundered at the very beginning of this session of Congress. _____________

A woman at New Orleans applied for a license as master of a steamboat. The government inspector reported her as competent but die was debarred on account of her sex.

The Democratic house in electing Carlisle said it would have no mercy on the business interests of the country that the tariff must be subjected to the pulling and hauliqg of a nine months' session of congress.

Saturday morning the Washington Post, the Democratic organ at the capital, said that "corrupt propositions were being made to Democratic mfiiri bers to control their votes in the nomination of a candidate for speaker.

There was a chance for Randall until the rule was adopted doing away with the secret ballot No southern democrat could go upon the record as voting against a southern man. To do so would have meant ostracism at home.

The president's annual message was not read yesterday, but will be to-day Its contents will not be given to the public until after the reading begins in congress, unless some "enterprising" correspondent surreptitiously s$ins possession of a copy in advance.

The holiday season is fully upon us and the Bhrewd advertisers are taking space in the newspapers. In connection with thie we will remark that the Express has the largest circulation of any paper in the city, and is the only daily that has any considerable circulation in the surrounding towns.

There were two ex-Confederate soldiers and one Union soldier candidates for the doorkeepers' piace. One of the Confederates received 95 votes and the other 62. The Union soldier, who according to the Post, the democratic organ at the capital, had "a splendid military record," received 20 votes.

The supporters of Randall, in their arguments, urged that his election meant only a temporary retirement of the tariff issue, and the holding in check the southern rapacity for control of the government until the presidential election was overwith. But the Democracy could not lay low even for the few months of this winter's session of Congress.

The Solid South put Mr. Carlisle in the speaker's chair. It also took the clerkship and doorkeeper for part of its share. The doorkeeper appomtr nine-tenths of the employee of tb«f thousand employed. It will thus be seen -that with the speaker who-~Rt*kM up the committee places for members

A Mormon missionary has hit upon a conclusive argument in favor of polygamy. Hesays: "You know most married' people have littfe misunderstandings, tilts as they are called. If one wife 'puts on,' all you have to do is to go to the house of another wife, that soon brings the obstreperous wife to her senses, and_I.tell~you it causes them all to use us mighty well."

Judge Kellev ebmes back to congress from bis trip to Europe with an antikilver bill. The bill greatly reduces the limitations of the coinage of silver dollars until the free coinage of both gold and silver as full legal tender shall be established at a common ratio by the leading commercial nations of Europe, in concert with the United States. The necessity for such action is set forth in the bill as resulting from the abandonment in Europe of the free coinage of Bilver, the free coinage of gold only having been maintained, and the consequent fall and instability in the value of silver during the past year.

The Express is Baddened at the pitiful spectacle of a decaying newspaper whose rapid decrease in circulation and influence causes it to become irritable and to forget the amenities of decent journalism. Of course we refer to the Gazette, which is displeased with the Express on account of the latter's treatment of the fire departr meat, and yesterday closed a tirade by Remarking that the Express must hereafter furnish affidavits to its statements. In this connection we will remark that the Gazette should Adopt the ancient trick recently revived in thjs city, and make an affidavit to a statement which is to be found at the head of its.columns, and Which is as follows: "Largest City Clr culation." In the language of the Gazette, this statement is a "downright, willful and malicious falsehood," a fact to which the' attention of the Gazette has frequently been called without any effect. By all means let us have an affidavit.

Mr. McDonald was interviewed in Indianapolis yesterday and said that Carlisle's position on the tariff was in accord with his own. We know Mr. Carlisle's position is not is accord with Senator Vocrhees* views, and yet Messrs. McDonald and Voorhees Bay their views are in accord. But this is merely an instance of a personal character. Mr. Carlisle and Mr. Randall endorsed the tariff plank in the platforms of their party adopted in Kentucky and Pennsylvania respectively. In the two states the plank was identically the name. Does any one suppose the public will believe in the light of the recent contest for the speakership that Carlisle and Kandall entertain the Bame belief in regard to the tariff

The recent articles regarding certain alleged cures of hydrophobia by the application of madstones, one of which cures occurring in this city, led to a discussion as to the efficacy of madstones. The Chicago News, referring to the popular superstition regarding the UBe of the stone, says: "Hammond, one of the highest authorities upon the subject, says that actual experience shows tnat only one out of every hundred bitten by rabid dogs have the hydrophobia. It is true probably beyond question that hundreds of people and animals are bitten every year in this Blate by rabid dogs, and yet a case of hydrophobia iu persons is

The case in this cily, where a madstone is now being used on a boy who haB been bitten by a rabid dog, which was at last accounts still running at large, iB in point. If the boy survives the bite, everyono who knows of the circumstance will be a firm believer in the efficacy of the mad-Btone, although he blight never have suffered from the wound. It will be impossible to convince them of their error, because he lives, as ninety and nine out of every hundred who are bitten do, and never use the mad-stone. It is, however, a harmless kind of a humbug, which is the most that can be said in its favor.*'

Buckland Pronounced Insane. St. Louis Globe-Democrat. E. R. Buckland, the crank from Mattoon, III., who succeeded in making himself famous here within the space of a comparatively few hours, has been sent to the Insane Asylum. Dr. Dorset, who examined him, found that he was insane enough to warrant being sent to that institution, and the turnkey of the calaboose was not sorry to get rid of him. He was very talkative and gave a good deal of trouble in his own peculiar way. As he is in charge who legetimately belongs to Illinois, he will probably be sent to that state shortly. He has many vagaries, one of which is that he is a great man and that the destines of the country reetufon his shoulders. He would use up quires of paper writing toprominent men throughout the United Stat«s if his passion for scribbing was indulged.

The announcement in Sunday morning's Express that Mr. W. B. Tuell dying, was received Everywhere initio citywith sotprise, as many pe—ona remembered seeing his famHiar figure within a few dayp previous. There were numerous inquiries as to his condition during the day, but aU reports frotn the rick room carried but one Im port,-that death was 'certain. At afew minutes ifter 5 o'clock in the afternoon Mr. Tuell breathed his last. Medical skill was exerted to the utmost, but without making any bend: way against the complicated troubles with the system of the patient Excepting a brief period

when he recognize4his wife who had spent the night at his/bedside, ME. Tuell was unconscious from Thanday until his death,.most of the time being under the influence of opiates.

The deceased was.born August 18th, 1826, at Brownstown, Jackson county, this state, where his' father owned a carpenter shop. In 1844 he started lor Lafayette on foot, carrying all hia earthly possessions in his satchel. When not far from this place he waa given a ride by a than on hortfcbadt. The horseman talked with' hhb about bis purposes in life, and as they rode along pnrsuided young Tadl tostdp ih ftrre Haute instead oi continuing his journey to Lafayette- Soon afterward "he found employment with Smith A Button, afterwards beeomtiig clerk for G. W. Langworthy, who, like Smith & Button, delt in general merchandise. In 1850 he succeeded Langworthy as proprietor of the store, and subsequently built a hioie foom on Main, near Third. In 1861, his brother*in-law, Mr. George F. Ripley, became a partner, and a idry gobds store w*s soon openfed on the southesst corner of Ma^n and Third streets, the location now occupied by Cook & Bell, removing a. year laterto the corner of- Fifth and Main, the location now occupied by Philip Schloss. In 1867 Mr. Arthur Doming became a partner, the firm name being Ttaell, Kpley*& Demingy In 1873 ths firm opened a wholsale house in the Doming Block, the retail establishmment being sold to Wilson Bros. & Hunley. The wholesale busineswas not prosperous and in li74 it wiui sold to H. Richardson & Co. In 1875 Mr. Tuell and Mr. Ripley bough^ihe Terre Haute house, where Mr. Tuell hj^d been livipg the year previou§, having sold hie elegant residence on Sixth street to Mr.: R. G. Hervey. In 1878 Mr. Ripley retired from the hotel and in the same pear Mr. Tuell with Messrs. W., R.

The Celebrated Actress Will Appear as Adrlenne, Instead of Imogen Is Cymbeline.

Mr. Henry G. Berger, in advance of the eminent Polish actress, Modjeska, has consented to a change of plays for his star. Instead of Cymbeline, will be presented the historical drama of Adrienne Lecouvreuer, adopted from the French by Scribe and Legonne. This powerful and tragic play has never been presented on our boards, and in it the famed actress is said to stand at the very zenith of her dramatic powers. Below we present the plot or argument of the play: The Princess de Bouillon, caring nothing for her husband, the prince, is madly in lore with the brilliant young soldier, Maurice de Saxe. He, however, loves the beautiful actress, Adrienne Leoonvreur, and iB loved by her in return, although she does not know he is the famous Count de Saxe, and thinks him only a poor young lieutenant The Prince de Bouillon has for a favorite another young actress, Mile. Duclos, who is supported by the Prince, and who is the professional rival of Adrienne. The Princess simulates friendship toward Mile. Duclos, and uses the name of Duclos in her correspondence with Maurice. She appoints the villa of the actress as the place of meeting Maurice to consult with him concerning the advancement of his public interests. The Prince finds the Princess' letter to Maurice signed "Duclos," and thinks Maurice a rival in the affections of the actress. So he assembled all hia friends at the villa at the hour appointed in the letter for meeting. With the assistance of Aurienne, Maurice succeeds in getting the Princess away without any one discovering her. This leads to the discovery by the Princess that Adrienne is her rival. The Princess sends Adrienne, as
