WHY YOU OUGHT TO JOIN.
The Spirit of tlie Board of Trade.
The Board of Trade is an organization to promote harmony and good will in our business relations and transactions with one another, and to secure concert of action in all matters having for their object the building up and improvment of our city in its manufacturing, industrial, and other commercial relations. It is also interested in whatever will improve the social and educational interests of the city, and whatever will beautify and develop the advantages Terre Haute as a city to live in or transact business in.
Our e. c., the Gazette, occasionally finds space to publish the views of a free trader, as it did

General Grant is at Fortress Monroe, where he will remain a month for the benefit of his health, which is a matter of considerable aDxiety to his friends. He has not yet been able to put aside the crutches whose use was made necessary by his fall.
The Illinois Derriocra'fl are following the footsteps of the National committee which followed the footsteps of the Republicans in selecting Chicago for the place of holding the convention. The Illinois Democrats adopted the decision of the Illinois Republicans and will hold the state convention at Peoria.
The German reichstag had not gotten fairly organized vhen the subject of the Lasker resolution was sprung. A lively debate ensued, Bismarck was denounced and defended and there was a lively time generally. The most noticeable feature of the debate is the servile attitude of those who defended Bismarck. Thoy discussed the question solely as one affecting the undoubted right of Bismarck to do as lie pleases, both as chancellor and as the big mogul of the reichstag.
The Republicans of Montgomery county have Instructed their delegates to the congressional convention to vote for Hon. R. B. F. Pelrce. The Eighth district never had a better congressman than Mr. Pelree, nnd few as good. He ought to be nominated, for in that case that district would after the next election have a Republican In John E. Lamb's seat.—Lafayette Journal.
In any case, we beg leave to say the district will have a Republican in John E. Lamb's seat. The tirst, last and all the time consideration, it must be borne in mind, is to elect a Republican in this district, and all other considerations will be made subservient to that one before and after the convention.
Irving and his managers are inquiring as to the possible profits of a second season in the United States. Mary Anderson desired to give a second season at Irvine's theater in London, and so if it is found that Irving would be successful next winter the exchange will be continued. Mary dosen't want to be home during a campaign she knows how the people prefer listening to the political orator and waiting up around the bulletin boards to witnessing the best of performances. At all events we hope Irving will make a seconde season because Terre Haute will probably be honored with one performance. In fact his managers were anxious to visit our city this year and would have done so but for the reason that it was thought best not to make one night engagements when it was easy to fill out the time with cities that would till the house three nights and a week.
The Star route investigation by the house committee has so far brought out nothing but the truth as to President Garfield's attitude in the prosecution *f the cases. There was not much need of bavingthis again stated, because
MO
one who has given the
subject, nv attention and who is capable of forming an impartial opinion, fras been affected by the efforts of the
men inculpated in the frauds, to smirch the memory of thei dead president.
But the investigation has also brought into public view two charac* ters who have occupied all the public attention that is necessary to bestow upon them. The statement was made by ex-Postmaster General James that the talk and schemes of hemembers of the star route ring were really the inspiring causes which influenced Gniteau to commit his crime. This in turn has called forth a statement by Reed, Guitau's attorney, that the assasin always insisted that uo one was criminated wiih him. What pofsible good can come from thissortof "development?" The committee has also heard ex-At-torney General Wayne MacVeagh. He was heard at length, and the sum and substance of his testimony is that Attorney General MacVeagh announced to the president that the executive must carefully consider the consequences
ID
directing him, Attorney
General MacVeagh, to prosecute the accused because he would do so to the bitter end, and any subsequent relaxation of purpose on the part of the president would cause Attooney General MacVeagh's retirement from the cabinet. MacVeagh also exalted himself as a sentimental politician.
It is distressing, thereforp, that the investigation has been starkd if this is a sample of the information that is to be obtained and it were better that it end at once. The country knows the truth about, those prosecutions. President Garfield originated them with the firm intention of securing justice if possible. President Arthur succeeded him in the midst of the proceedings and strictly enforced the purposes of his predecessor. Washington juries did the rest. That is all there is in the matter, and the public knows it too well and doesn't want to be inflicted with daily doses of such stuff as we have had for two or three days past.
Since Congressman Wise, of Virginia, joined the independent party his views have broadened. He has just done a manly act. He was recognized in his state as one of the staunchest supporters of the code, which in plain English means murder. Since his appearance before the Danville committee he has been assailed by the bourbons with the characteristic weapon of your southern chivalry, fiery denunciation in rounded periods, which abuse being thus eloquently phrased is supposed to be relieved of its blackguard' ism. Capt. Page McCarty, the editor of a Richmond paper, ^outdid his contemporaries and with cool pride wrote and published au article with the sole purpose of tiling out a challenge. All Richmond, wo «rs informed, expected a challenge from Wise, and a Virginia exhibition of valor at four o'clock in the morning in some secluded spot in the neighborhood. McCarty is the hero of one duel, being "a principal in the famous Mordecai-McCarty affair, in which the former was killed and the latter severely wounded." Tho truth is Bince then Page McCarty has been a wanderer, and has had no settled ideas of life. If the Mahone movement has accomplished no other good it has changed the character of John Wise. It has also brought out the following words which were written in reply to McCarty'snewspaper article:
What satisfaction can I secure from McCarty? I would not light a duel. do not wish his blood, and would be as miserable as he is now. If I were to sue him for slander and give the money to some charitable institution I could not make anything out of him on execution. Unmarried,. penniless, without any fixed employment dissipated, with nothing to lose, he seems possessed of a devil, and would no doubt deem it a mercy for some gentleman to kill liim and ease a tortured brain and conscience. He may play Sir Lucius O'Trigger to his heart's content, boasting of his ancestry (every one of whom has killed his man), his family portraits and honor, but he must find somebody else than me to kill him. With a sweet .home, filled with merry children, with enough tolive comfortably on, with a paying profession, I am happy and want to live. In God's name, what would a man like Page McCarty put in stake against this when we stood at ten paces with pistols? His abuse of me has no more effect than a dog barking at the moon. His invitation comes too late. Time has beeu when I might have been fool enough to indulge in such folly, but with age, and a broader view of life and life's responsibilities and duties, I have bidden farewell forever to the McCarty type of manhood. What people may think of my courage by reason of this letter I can not say. If they do not think me courageous, dueling would never convince them. I know what my friends will say. I sometimes think I would rather risk the charge of cowardice than that of murderer. I have tried not to be too severe upon poor McCarty, whose wasted talents and miserable life I truly Pity.
VOICE OF THE PEOPLE.
Coal at the Normal School.
To the Editor of the Express. SIR:—In regard to the statement of Mr. Mallory (who furnishes the State Normal school with coal), ns reported In the Express, namely: that he was allowed to place only enough in the coal cellars to last five days, I would state that there has been a supply of at least five car loads in the house ut one time, ample enough to sufficiently last for twelve or fourteen days.

Cold Tea Together.
Washington Republican. Mr. Carlise paid Mr. Ranney a high compliment, near the close of the last congress, by telling him to his face that he considered him the ablest lawyer on the Republican side of the house.
Mr. Ranney, having for some time regarded Mr. Carlisle as the most distinguished lawyer among tbe Democratic members, was able to cordially return the compliment then and there.
A few minutes afterward they were seated together in the House restaurant, partaking of cold tea.

MY LITTLE NEIGHBOR.
I often gaze at the dainty study Of my little neighbor across the way. Where through the curtains the fire gleams ruddy
And shadows leap on the wall in play,
Precisely at 7 she enters nightly This charming place that she calls her den, And a student lamp from the room beams brightly
Till the clock chimes softly the hour of ten. There's a charming litter upon the table
Of manuscript in a graceful hand. To guess the secret, now are you able? She is writing a novel, I understand!
Ah, if she figured in her creation, Though the picture drawn were but half as sweet, The reader would kneel, in his adoration,
A willing slave at her little feet.
I would then have the strongest of inclinations To play the hero, for it might be That, after chapters of tribulations,
In the finishing one she would marry me! Malcolm Douglas in Ehrichs' Fashion uarterly.

AHTHDit AND THE LADIES.
The President Cornered by Miss Aathony and the Suffragist*. Washington Special.
Every winter the women suffrage leaders meet here in national convention, and to read each other perfunctory essays, present arguments to the senate woman's suffrage committee, and then call upon the president. In performing this last duty they always send up some active representative to suggest to the president the idea of inviting them to call. The delagates, headed by Susan B. Anthony were formally received to-day-Miss Anthony, who looks as bright, vigorous, and untiring as ever, settled her gold-bowed glasses firmly upon her nose end began to talk as soon they were marched
UD
in front of the presi
dent's desk in his library. The president stood up during the talk, bis eyes twinkling humorously as the veteran agitators gathered about him. Miss Anthony's line of thought, clear and vigorously expressed, was to the effect that if the president expected to be elected for another term of four yeare he would take a long step on the road by promising to put in his next message, if elected, a paragraph in favor of a sixteenth amendment to the constitution conferring the right of suffrage upon women.
The president was equal to the occasion. He said in a very graceful way that he was glad to have the opportunity of meeting so many distinguished ladies, and then added that he was very confident thoy would secure all the rights they ouget to have. This answer did not datisfy the blunt Miss Anthony. She said sharply: "Should not women have full equality and political rights with the men?"
The president did',not answer the question directly, but bowed as he said: "Miss Anthony, we would probably difier as to the details in answering that question."
After a little informal talk, the pioneers, as they love to call themselves, filed out. They met Gen. Ben Butler coming up. He had a white and a red rosebud in the lapel of his heavjr blue overcoat. He did not remove his soft black hat as Miss Anthony shook hands with him and introduced her associates. Miss Anthony said: "General, we know you are in sympathy with u3. We hope you may be president some day, to you can help us." "You are very kind, I am sure," said the general, as he Bkipped, nimbly as a boy, up the stairs.
The Trouble in Monitoba Chicago Current. Premier Norquay, of Manitoba, shows that the disabilities under which the people of that province labor are far from being imaginary and cannot be regarded from a humorous standpoint, The Monitobans complain of railroad rates discriminating against them of high protective duties enacted by the dominion parliament, which greatly increase the cost of necessary articles, and especially of agricultural machinery. They want their boundary extended so as to include a port on Hudson bay, to which they contemplate constructing a railroad to connect them with what they hope may become a cheep water routes to Europe. The Dominion government is disinclined to take any step to reduce their griev auces, and hence the bold talk of secession and annexation to the United StateB. With the proposed water route they think that, with the other difficulties adjusted, they will be a ble to get along comfortably and be able to give vast energies full working room in their far northarn home which 14,000 square miles in area, is able to sustain a vast population of agriculturists. It is possible that the Manito-b.-»ns are not very much in earnest about annexation, which, indeed, is not to be considered now. The annexation talk is designed for consumption at Ottowa and for the purpose of correction.

Keep the hens in the inclosure during the curculio's ravages, and a crop of plums annually will be the re ward of the pains and the outlay." The editor says the remedy is a good one and has been used by plum growers for years. Whether it is as thor oughlv efficacious as this correspondent thinks is open to debate. However, in the vicinity of Detroit two parties who have tried it for years declare it eminently satisfactory, as they never have had a curculio since they turned their fowls into their plum orchards.

Pine stumps may be more profitably removed by blasting with dynamite than by a stump puller. A large pine stump requires very great force to be palled out of the ground, but it is easily torn to pieces and thiownout by two to four ounces of dynamite.
Turkey raisidg is carried on extensively in Tehama county, California. One man, in addition to raising and tending a large flock of sheep, raised nearly 700 turkeys last year. Large flocks of from 1,000 to 15,000 are frequently met with, tended by women and children.
In order of earliness of'green fodder plants that have been cultivated at the experimental farms lucerne is first, cumfrey, red clover, rye, tares, oats, millet, rape, corn and cabbage. An average production of thirteen tons green weight and three toqs dry weight was secured.
A novel but profitable industry to the mountains of North Carolina and East Tennessee is that of collecting roots (mostly laurel). The roots are shipped to Philadelphia and Boston and used for the manufacture of door knobs and pipe-bowls. The roots frequently weigh from 75 to 150 pounds. There is a constant demand, and good prices are paid for them by the ton.
Private Circus in Paris. The latest novelty in Paris is a private circus, which is owned and managed by M. Molier. The arena, which is as large as that of the public estab lishment of the samo kind in the Champs Elysees, presents the appearance of the square of some Spanish city, the spectators occupying places at the windows and on the balconies of the surrounding houses, and the effect is heightened when, as on the first night, the balconies are crowded with the prettiest women in the capital, escorted to the evening's entertainments by the most distinguished representatives of the Paris clubs. The troupe is composed of amateurs, piofessiouals being excluded, and includes a number of horsemen and (horsewomen, gymnasts, clowns, nearly all of them M. Molier's own pupiis.

Many persons are not aware that glass can be cut under water with great ease to almost any shape by simply using a pair of scissors. In order to insure success the points must be kept quite level in tbe water while the scissors are applied and, secondly, to avoid risk, it is better to begin cutting by taking off small pieces the corners and along the edges, and so reduce the shape gradually to that required. When the operation goes on well the glass breaks awav from tbe scissors in small pieces in a straight line with the blades. The two hints given above, if strictly followed, will always insure success.
Consumption of Spirits in America. Temperance people will find consolation in the statistics that the Rev. Dr. Dorchester gives in the Independent. These statistics show that, while the consumption of alcoholic drinks in the United States sixty years ago was five gallons per capita, it is now only two gallons per capita. They show also that the average quantity of spirits drank in 1870-1-2 was 67,417,000 gallons, and in 1880-1-2 71,224,000. This is an increase of only 5 per cent, instead of 30 per cent to correspond with the increase of population.
Robert Laird Collier photographs John Ruskin as a very different looking man from what the aesthetic world has fondly fancied him.

Cherry Pectoral
So other complaints are so insidious in their attack as those affecting the throat and lungt: none ao trifled with by the majority of cofferers. The ordinary oongh or cold, resulting perhaps from a trifling or unconscious exposure, is often hot the beginning of a fatal sickness. AYXB'B CHJSKEY PSCTOHAL has well proven its efficacy in a forty yean' fight with throat and luhg disease®, and should be taken in all cases without delay.
A Terrible Cough Cured. In 18571 took a severe cold, which affected my lungs. I had a terrible cough,and passed night after night without sleep. The doctors gave me up. I tried AYKB'B OHKKBT PKCTOBAL, which relieved my lungs, induced sleep, and afforded me the rest neoeesary for the recovery of my strength. By the continued use of the FKCTOBAL a permanent cure was effected. I am nowjEJ yean old, hale and hearty, and am satisfied your CHBBKY PECTOBAI. saved me.
Lake Crystal, Minn., March 13,1882. I suffered for eight yean from Bronchitis, and after trying many remedies with no suocess, I was cured by the use of AYEB'S CHEBBY PECTOBAL. JOSEPH WALDEM."
Bj&alia, Miss., April 6,1882. "Cannot say enough in praise of AYEB'S CHERRY PECTOBAL, believing as I do ttat but for its use I should longstnce have died from lung troubles. E. BRAODOlf.
Palestine, Texas, April 22,1882. No casa of an affection of the throat or lungs exists which cannot be greatly relieved by the use of AVBR'S CHEBBY PECTORAL, and it will always cure when the disease ia r.ot already beyond the control of medicine.

Croup.—A Mother's Tribate. "While in the country last winter wy little boy, three years old, was taken ill with croup it seemed as if he would die from strangulation. One of the family suggested the use of AYKR'S CHXBBT PECTORAL, a botUe of which was always kept in the house. This was tried in small and frequent doses, aun to our delight in less than half an hour the little patient was breathing easily. The doctor said that the GHERBY PECTORAL had saved my darling's life. Can you wonder at our gratitude? Slncerelyyours,
Mas. EMMA GEDXXT."
