The Fitz John Porter debate has in its very beginning developed the intense feeling that is felt in the case as will be seen by the report of the proceedings in the house yesterday, published this morning.
The business men who met last spring, and with commendable enterprise inaugurated the excursions which proved so beneficial during the summer will, we have no doubt, follow up their good work by instituting aboard of trade.
With all due respect to Councilman Kolsem and City Engineer Grimes, the proposed Sixth ward sewer is not a wise piece of municipal legislation. The sewerage of a city growing as fast as is Terre Haute is a subject worthy of more consideration than was given the measure adopted by the city coun oil at its last meeting.
ANew York correspondent unwittingly explains the cause of Delmonico's strange conduct in wandering off into the New Jersey woods. The correspondent says that a short time since Delmouico was asked to make out a bill of fare for dinner for one that would be at the highest expense of his restaurant. He did so. The bill was slio wn to a rival, who topped Delmon ieo several dollars. This is ail the information any competent coroner would need.
In the vote on the bill for the immediate appropriation of $1,000,000 for the work on the Mississippi river it ia noticeable that a number of those members who have been persistent opponents of the river and harbor bills voted in the affirmative. There were but 64 votes in the negative, not onethird of the votes cast for the passage of the bill. The significance in (his vote has led the friends of theiroprovement of the Mississippi to seriously consider the advisability of having all appropriations for the river brought before the house in a separate bill. There ia practically no opposition to the expenditure of money for the improvement of this national highway, and the only oppopition to making the appropriation for it the subject of a separate bill will come from those who have creeks in their districts, for jvhich they can get no money unless the appropriation is in a general bill including great works like that now being carried on in the Mississippi.
Senator Harrison's suggestion, made at the time of the unveiling of the Morton monument, that a monument be erected to the soldiers of Indiana, is proving to be a most happy one. It has been taken up on all sides as the thing now to be done. The Indianapolis Journal, in heartily advocating the proposition, says: "We have remembered the leader let us not neglect the Tank and file. The enterprise needs but organization to insure its ultimate success. The state has a population of two millions of people, rich in material wealth and in honor Uirough the services of the Federal veteran. A suitable memorial can be erected with no sacrifice or inconvenience. Who more fit to lead in thig enterprise than surviving veterans? Let the Grand Army of the Republic select a committee of energetic men and set the movement going." The suggestion that the Grand Army of the Republic set the movement going is 1 lie rue for the next step. The Graud Army is organized, and so organized that but little nerds to be done in the way of preliminarifs.
In the regular associated press report this morning we are informed that Senators were confused as to the actual course of the proceedings in the senate which ended in the defeat of the Mexican treaty. There were many- reports regarding the various votes taken, etc., but in spite of all the contradictory statements we are given I he true account. This does not read much as if these proceedings'were conducted in secret session and that senators are sworn not to divulge them,but such is the fact. The executive sessions of the senate are farces so

far as secrecy is concerned, and this being so, there is no good reason for their continuation. Of course there are senators who will not give information of what transpires in these sessions but there are many who do. So notoriously has thiB been done that on several occasion investigations have been proposed but never undertaken. An investigation would be as ridiculous as the so-called secret session. In fact on one occasion a distinguished senator oflered in secret session a resolution ordering an vestigation and tliat evening gave correpondent a copy of the resolution.

The recent exposures of the practices of grave robbers in Illinois has started an intelligent discussion of a question that should be disposed of in every state. The demands of science and the benefit of ailing humanity require the use of the dissecting table. The army of young men throughout the country studying medicine should have all the advantages that can come from post mortem examinations. Tho only question to be determined by law is the supply of bodies for the medical colleges. In some states there are laws by which ample provision is made, and the shocking disclosures that follow the work of professional grave robbers are obviated. There is no harm in the use of the dead except as the knowledge of the desecration becomes known to those who were near and dear to them. The text of an act has been prepared in Chicago which meets with general approval. It provides that a person may will his body or a part of it for dissection, or the relatives may permit dissection to the extent necessary to determine the cause of death, or in the case of acci dental death the coroner shall have power to the same extent, but no further. With regard to the pauper dead, the act makes it the duty
of" TUB cffi«x» -having charge
of the body for the purpose of hurrying it at public expense to immediately notify the nearest relatives of the deceased, "if known, or his nearest friend, if known, to whom, if they ap pear within forty-eight hours, he must deliver the body for the purpose of burial. Otherwise the body must be delivered to the medical colleges, under certain proper restrictions, for anatomical purposes. If the deceased in his last illness requested burial the body cannot be thus delivered, nor can the body of a traveler dying suddenly. Such a law, it would seem, would meet all requirements and then the ruthless desecration of graves should be stopped.
i'
Political Soience.

He Yiolated Bourbon Customs. Boston Transoript. Matthews, who was shot at the polls in Copiah county, Miss., was the only sheriff of that county, it is said, who didjnot go out of office a defaulter. The Democrats showed their contempt for such a man by shooting him in his tracks.
Hand's Other Name.
New York Graphic. Miss Maud Stuart, the actress in the "Young Miss Wlnthrop" Company, was known as Maud Cirubbs when she was a girl. If she had changed, her name to Maud Victual! it seems to us.that It. would have been more appropriate.

A Parable.
New YorkjTrlbune. ., The Buffalo Courier is endeavoring to console Mr. Pendleton for the loss of the senatorshlp by suggesting him for the vice presidency. "Father," said the small boy, "can I go to the circus to-day?" "Nn," replied the father, "but. lf you are a good boy all summer, jome day next fall I'll take you up to the cemetery on the hill, and show you your grandfather's grave."
Thh Aristocrat's Befuge.
.New York Commercial Advertiser. America is the future home of the broken-down European aristocrat. There Is not a doubt that the indications all point that way. The roomy andlcyclonlc west Is now overrun with gentlemen of ancient lineage, who dine on pork and cabbage at eight and paint their coats of arms upon their wheelbarrows. An Irish baronet is at present engineering the Wyndham comedy company, and a Russian nobleman pilots a grocery wagon in Chicago. The time approaches when our street cars will be manned with retired counts and marquises, and when an asylum for played-out kings and emperors will stand a monument to the logical consistency of republican ideas.
The 33wo-Headed Democratic Tiger, -,• ,r Chicago Twines (Ind.)
Nast's effective cartoon iu 1876, that presented the Democratic tiger, with a hard-money head at one end and a sham-money head at the other end, goiBg in opposite directions and pulling the animal asunder in the middle, is reproduced in the Bpectacle now witnessed in congress. Again the Bourbon tiger presents itself with two heads, one at each end. Which is the front and which the rear of the beast it is not possible yet for the spectators to decide. When thev turn their eyeB to one end, they behold the stalwart form and placid countenance of Mr. Carlisle, marching toward the goal, free trade. When they transfer their gaze to the opposite end of the animal, they behold the square-jawed bull dog face of Mr. Randall, marching toward the goal Protectionism. The two ends of the animal, under these chosen leaders, are advancing in opposite directions. Looking now to the middle part of the Bourbon quadrupled, the spectators see that the two end sections are held together only by an attenuated ligature, that every moment is becoming more threadlike, at any moment may snap asunder. The situation is a critical one, and goes to be more critical.
Hoadly the Next Victim. •*., New York World. The wild yahoos in Ohio who have slain Pendleton are sharpening their knives now for Hoadly. The Cincinnati Enquirer's agent in the legislature announces that Hoadly is distrusted and hated. His course in the senato-
E E E
rial fight—a sort of politic neutralityis made a pretext for the war which is about to be waged upon him. The agent aforesaid makes the following public announcement: "The 'Kids' who won the senatorial fight in such superb style are disgusted with him and the mossbacks never did like him or his "new Democracy." His name will never be mentioned in Ohio, either for first or second place on the ticket, except by some cheap editor who has been appointed a scrubber in the capitol."
This may be said to be official, and Governor Hoadlv might as well prepare himself for the guillotine. But if this sort of thing goes on, what kind of figure will the Buckeye state cut in the presidential campaign of 1884?

THE SKELETON'S BKinE.
She Becomes Delirious and Returns to Her Father's House. Philadelphia Special.
Bertha Clear, the girl who married Garrison, the living skeleton at the museum, on Monday, is now a maniac in her parent's house in West Philadelphia. and herreeoverv is doubtful. The day after her marriage she became very nervous and excitable, and at last quested leave to go to her father's to get her clothes. The skeleton demurred at. first, bnt at length allowed her to go.
On the way she met a relative who had read of the marriage in the newspapers and waa seeking her. She was dndly "received by her parents^ but soon became delirious, and could be heard screaming, "Oh, take him away! Take him away out of my sight 1" She is attended by"skillful physicians, who pronounced her condition critical. Her father expresses himself as horrified at what has happened, and will begin proceedings for a divorce, alleging that Bertha has been of unsound mind at periods for several months.
The Iiotoftlie Working Girls. The Man About Town of the Detroit Times says: I am dead in love with the entire class of girls who have to work hard in our factories and mer cantile establishments for their daily bread. There is no particular occasion for alarm upon learning t^is fact, for my affection is entirely of the collective sort. 1 love them because their heads are hardened and their hands are hardened and their faces aged in the endeavor to keep the wolf from the doors of their dear ooes. These are the true heroint-a of the world, see them daily by scores and hundreds and crown them mentally with the laurels which they have so nobly earned. It requires a heart of oak to face the sneers of the" painted and brainless sisters who cross the street that their costly robes may, not come in contact withL.those of my heroines. But they do face them, and in my heart and by my pen I "n rite them noble. The hands of all true men and women will reach out to crown them in their life-work. For the remainder of the world it does not so much matter.
The French-Chinese Trouble Briefly Stated. Bt.. Louis Republican.
A correspondent desires to know the cause of the trouble between France and China. It may be briefly stated that France has certain treaty claims to jurisdiction in Tonquin which was apart of the Anamese territory. Anam hasalwayB acknowledged a loose sort of allegiance to fchiaa. which claims a suzerainty over it. The Red river is a navigable stream throu Tonquin and taking its rise in province of Yunnan, China. Yunnan is one of the Chinese provinces, and has no connection with the outer world. The French hope to open up trade with this province by the Red river. ''The exclusive policy of the Chinese is opposed to this. Moreover, the French have aspired to set up a protectorate which is designed to supersede China's authority in Anam
Why Did He Do It?
Washington Letter.
There is still a good deai of tal about the president's New Year's reception. On New Year's day the president entered the Blue Room with Mrs. Carlisle on his arm. On the two previous New Years' he had accorded that honor to Mrs. Frelinghuysen, notwithstanding that Mrs. Keifer had the same claim to it that Mrs. Carlisle had this year. So the president's conduct has been much commented on.

He succeeded in getting the whale alongside under the, starboard bow, and, fastening a line to the capstan, began to haul it on board, when the harpoon pulled out and the fish was lost. It was twenty-five feet long.

My wpetite_ improved almost from the first oose. After a short time the fever and Itching were allayed, and all signs of irritation of the skin disappeared. My catarrh and cough were also cored by the same means, and my general health greatly improved, ohtil it is now excellent. I feel a hundred per cent stronger, and I attribute these results to the use of the SABSAPARIIAA, which I recommend with all confidence as the best blood medicine ever devised.
