Terre Haute offers manufacturing Justrles unequalled inducements. Fuel is cheaper than In any city in the west, so eheap thattlour Is manufactured at less eost for power than prevails anywhere else In the country.

The Ohio Democrats in the legislature are holding caucuses to decide what shall be done with the Scott Liquor Law. The law has collected $2,000,000 from the saloonkeeper^ and the people rejoice. The saloonkeepers, however, do not want to be made to give anything for the privilege of deal idg in intoxicants. The Democracy is therefore in a dilemma, and the horns therfeof are not very pleasant to its view* a—1,"',"'1

The Vincennes Sun, the Democratic organ of" Knox county, in discussing the verdict in the Nutt case, and the ease with which murderers escape the penalty of the law, says:

It is to be presumed that there are laws In force In every state of the Union to prevent and to punish every known form of crime and malfeasance. If there be not such state laws then It Is manifestly the duty of the United States government to see to it that crime Is punished with the most rigid penalties—sufficient to act remedially as a prevention.

If this does not recommend a more "paternal" form of government than any Republican newspaper ever advocated then there is no meaning in words.

Postal telegraphy is worrying the Democrats. The Chicago Tribune says "If Washington advices be correct the prevailing sentiment among the Demo crats in congress is opposed to any scheme of government telegraphy, and even those Democratic members who are personnlly favorable to it are indisposed to advocate it openly on account of the party pressure against it. This fact furnishes another illustration of the contradictions which beset the Democratic party of to-day. The Democratic outcry against monopoly is demagogism, pure and simple. Whenever an occasion is presented to strike a blow at monopoly the Democrats either neglect it or play directly into the hands of the monopolists. Goal Oil Payne has been elected to the United States senate by the grossest monopoly influence at a time when Democratic newspapers, platforms, resolutions and stump speeches glisten and sparkle with glittering generalities against monopoly. The Western TJnion Telegraph company, having absorbed every formidable effort at competition, is the most gigantic monopoly of our time, but a suggestion of the only practical means for breaking it down is met by the opposition of the Democrats as a party."

Many Mortgages Invalidated. Indianapolis Journal The decision of tne Supreme court rendered this week and reported in the Journal of the 23d—Dodge vs. Kinzy, Howk, J.—will render invalid a very large per cent, of the mortgages executed since September 19,1881. A mortgage had been given by husband and wiie on real estate held by th«n jointly, to secure notes given by the husband for borrowed money. The wife is released by section 5119 of the Revised Statutes, which forbids a wife entering into any contract of suretyship for her husband, and-the husband is released because he had no estate in the land that he could encumber. The number of mortgages of this kind is not small.

ttE TERRE HAUTE BX

SOMETHING POSSESSING INTEREST.

On the banks of the Wabash river some little distance belowTerre Haute, there is a small cavity made by the hand of a little child. From this petty excavation a curiosity has been unearthed and is now in my possession* In making this statement of fact it is due to the public at large to set forth the circumstances under which,againBt my will, the bauble came into my hands. One moonlight night, strolling, as is my wont, about this little city of the gods, Terre Haute, I became im pressed with the truth that a diminutive child, a little girl, a mere baby, was watching me from a corner of a street, with her groat beseeching eyes. On pausing to inquire what I could do —and feeling my inability—she responded: "Oh, sir! am loBt."

Having had pitiful experiences with lost babes, before this episode, I at once set myself to securing the girl's confidence. This I did—but, though Bhe had spoken freely to be at first, singular enough not without difficulty. Finally she found breath from her sobbings, and gave me the following: "I came with papa to town and (sob) I (sob) got lost (along spell of hard crying)." "Did your people--" I scarcely know what I was about to ask the child, but she seemed to get an idea from my remarks, for she put in quickly— "Oh! yes,'' she said, "1 know where— my people, well they went home—my people, yes I know where they live."

An unusually precocious child, for her years," thought I to myself "How old are you, dear,?" "Seven." "You are very—" I hesitated for a word, "very—well, you are very know ing—" I could think of nothing better to say-rr"for

that

a8e

"Yes, they all say that. Look here," she said", drawing sometuing

It was of bone, apparently, andl)ore, to my fancy, the appearance of a snake's head—or head of some serpent —it seemed to have a horn, and the lower jaw broken off. I studied it carefully, being fond of this sort of thing. Not unlike Pickwick, when Le found the stone with "Bill Stump, his mark" on it. The child, standing with the moonlight streaming on her face, pursued her own stream of childish talk. "Mama and papa,—they know found it. They know I found it, and they wanted me to go to a man—professor something they called him—at the big school house"—she meant the Normal institute of this place, "and give it to him."

Her parents had evidently desired her to go alone to this professor, for reasons of their own, and the child with all her maturity, had gone astray, My heart opened to the little tin wanderer, and I told her to walk wit! me. I asked her to allow me to retain the relic, for a little while. We had not gone far till, by lucky chance, I met friend, who had a carriage, in which h6 was then driving. So I took him into my confidence and we started for the child's home. On arriving there we found the mother, whom the father had driven home to care for the other children, all but distracted. The father at length arrived. My friend and myself were treated like princes, and, loving adventure, I retired to rest that night in the house of my new-found friend, my professional brother returning to Terre Haute. In the morning, I learned about the child's "find," and went and looked at the place where her fingers had unearthed this treasure. I dug around a little myself, and to my surprise found another article of peculiar shppe:—

ii-i—

like the rough drawing just above submitted. The natural inquiry suggested itself to my mind, "Whether or not they were not connected in some way?" The specimen last found was like an Indian war pick, or .club—as old denizens of the charmed region know the red rovers of the woods did us great honor, in days gone before. It some how came to my mind, it could not be this, for had the red man taught his infant to fight, he could not have endowed it with this weapon of attack, as it was too small, even, for that. I took the two forms, and handled them carefully. They resembled, as I say— or one of them—what might have been the bone of the frontis-piece of a small serpent. The size given, in the sketches, of their appearance, in shape, is about the real size. The little girl was with me: "I know, now, she said. I was lost in thought, and did not heed her. My mind was traveling—must I say it?— my mind, at that moment, was far beyond the seas. I thought of divers lands. I thought, where riches of this sort had been unearthed in those far lands. I thought, was there really any value in such things^after all What did they portend? What was it that sages went mad about, concerning these remembrances of past things. I can not determine satisfactorily, but only lay glimpseB, to the readers mind, what was my exact state, during this mental wandering. The lands beyond the ocean, old Europe, with its multiform Btores of buried lore, brought my ruminations with a gliding motion to the great pyramids. Here, those who talk upon these subjects, find a mys tery. Find one too great to solve. Find one, tha proper solution of which, they claim, would solve the question of universal destiny. "Can it be

to explain this to myself,

had not been studying long, when chanced to glance skyward, and saw a cross-shaped cloud hovering over me, I looked at the objects I head. I twisted them around aimlessly. .Presently they got placed together injthe shape I append:

Can it be, that my mind went from minor matters in Europe to the pyramids, and to Rome, and to the cloud in the sky here, -for

"pur

pose?" Can it not be, that this city which first started the Christian faith, had a bearing on the case? for my mind could not get away from the city of Rome. Who can answer? I cannot. I will produce to any one, who asks to see them, the articles I-found through' the little girl.

THE PROPOSED SOLDIERS' MONUMENT.

genator Harrison Makes Some Practical SUGGESTIONS and a Contribution* Indianapolis Journal.

D. M. Ransdell yesterday received a letter from Senator Harrison regarding the proposed soldiers' monument, in which some excellent suggestion are made regarding the methods of raising the required funds. The letter is as follows:

"Washington,D.C.,

bo?"

January 2i

"Captain D. M. Kamdell:

"My Dear Sir—I am very much gratified that the suggestion of a soldiers' monument,' to be raised at Indianapolis, meets with so much favor. An effort in that direction, mide several years ago by General Coburn and others, after exciting some interest and securing some subscriptions, was allowed by our people to fail. Now, the soldiers of Indiana are organized in the grand army, and the subject can be more easily and more generally brought to their attention. I feel sure that if a wise plan of action is agreed upon, and a good committee organized, we can have a. monument. I suggest that your post take the necessary initial steps. I would suggeffj: "First—That correspondence be opened all the G. A. R. posts in the stftto* "Second—That soldiers' subscriptions, payable monthly, be. asked from all our membership. "Third—That citizens' subscriptions in gross, payable at a specified time, or at once, be solicited in each county by committees designated by the local posts. "Fourth—That these subscriptions should not be limited by any conditions as to the place in the city of Indianapolis where the monument should be located. "Fifth—That when the soldiers and other friends have Becured money enough to pay for the superstructure and any figures that may be in the design, the state shall then be asked to furnish suitable pedestal. The United States has done this in thecase of every monument erected here by the army Societies." "We can build this monument-and get more satisfaction out of our contri: butions and labor than in anything we have done since the 'grand review.' "Start the subscription in G.

Philadelphia News. An up-town grammar school boy became so obstreperous, yesterday, that his teacher, new in her vocation, young and pretty, determined to try the plan of keeping him in. After Bchool she sat with grim determination until it became dark, and then she let him depart. What was her astonishment at the gate to find the youth ^awaiting her. He greeted her with,'"It's too dark for a young lady to be alone on the streets. Will you allow me to see yon home?"

Perhaps the greatest eater that ever lived existed in the days of Old Parr, in the beginning of 1600. His name was Nicholas Wood, of the county of Kent, England. One of the Writers of the time says: "He did eat with ease a whole sheep, and that raw, at one meal at another time thirty dozen of pigeons. On one occasion he devoured uhirty yards of black pudding. He made an end of a whole pig at once, and after it three pecks of damsons while again he ate six penny loaves, three six-penny veal pies, one pound of butter, one good, big dish of thornback, and a peck loaf in the space of. an hour." V.- ,•

queried, of my inmost being? "I know net—" I responded, to myself, "'and not giving you a short answer' I added, to the same person, 'I don't care.'" But, this little shell of a thing, the world, this small ball, this master-piece of perfection— whence, whither, and how flow we drift, in these idle moments, into snch cogitations! My mind gathered itself, and passed to Rome. Why, there?

The public have been made familiar of late with Mr. Jay Gould's method of quieting rumors or suspicions intolving his financial integrity. When the Wall street king hears that his critics and enemies foretell his downfall he calls meeting of his friends at his private office, opens his' vaults, produces his strong box and proceeds to lay o&t his assets for public inspection.

TheresOlt, flfftwtalogued.is telegraphed •broad, and-ill doubts as to Mr. Gould's solvency are set at rest.
