Tt is said Butler is looking four years ahead. Nonsense he can look aideways only.
Mrs. Schelling threatens to go on the stage at Niblo's garden if her family does not relent and receive her husband. Perhaps the coachman is the one who married below his station.
Under the heading "Tell the Truth" the Vincennee Son prints the names ©I many leading Democrats who are
announced to speak in that city. We do not like to believe that these Democrats are all in the same boat with Cleveland.
The Vincennes Sun charges a campaign speaker with visiting a house of ill fame. But the Sun has no words of condemnation for its canaidate, who, according to all accounts, maintained quarters that could have been raided by the police under the ill fame law.
It is now made public that in 1867 Mr. Hendricks, then a United States senator, said: "I'amjperfectly willing to vote for this or any other bill short of putting to death a man who shall take a drink of liquor." The bill under consideration was to prohibit the sale of liquor in the national capitol. If any prohibitionist in*|IncHana ever went that far in a public declaration it is not on record. There is no chance for a denial that Hendricks said this because it is found in the Congressional Globe, the official record of proceedings in congress.
Mr. Blaine has written a letter ti Mr. William Walter Phelps, and h«s filed answers to the Sentinel's interrogatories regarding his marriage, which we with all other ascertained facts believe convey to any fair-minded person all the information necessary upon which an opinion can be formed. There was mystery surrounding the first ceremony, but Mr. Blaine has furnished us the names of witnesses to that and the subsequent ceremony at Pittsburg. He has made a frank and honorable statement.
It is wilh great hesitancy that anyone but those whese thoughts are brutally lustful can begin a conversation or discussion about this case. As the New York Times of yesterday remarked, "The statement which Mr. Blaine makes in his letter to William Walter Phelps should close all lips upon a subject which has been introduced in this campaign only where manliness was forgotten." That there are men whose minds are as filled with lust when they consider any relation between men and women aa when they are associated with the depraved, is too true. They are none too good to be classed with animals. They associate with married life the debauchery of their own inclinations. Such men will morbidly speculate on all that is base in life. For their opinion, no honorable mar will give a second thought. But to manly men the lips of all were closed before Mr. Blaine wrote his letter to Mr. Pbelps. Even if the Sentinel's brutal story had been true, no man who had a sufficent realization of the value of believing in the good in life, would indulge in a comment or inuendo on the facts. Mr. and Mrs. Blaine have lived a most beautiful domestic life. They have reaied children who were the constant recipients of praise from all who knew them. In the licentiousness of Washington life Mr. Blaine has never been associated—a rare distinction, much more so than is commonly supposed. Living this sort of life, even though all that is charged against him were true, it is an unspeakable crime to attempt to destroy the honor of his wife and family by this publicity. And when such effort is made as an offbet to the charges against a man like political campaign beco rnes strous.
We are glad to say th.it no news paper except the one that originally uttered the slander has any comment except in deprecation of the onslaught on an honored family. The CourierJournal like the New York Times refers to the Sentinel as the "black guard newspaper" and the attack as beastly" and says that it "has been repeated by no responsible speaker or writer." It will be repeated by no honorable man nor uBed for political effect by no honorable newspaper except the Sentinel and the possible exception of the Gazette of this city, which gloats in the nasty features of what it attempts to make out a case of scan. mag. The Sentinel is trying to make money out of it, and is offering supplements with all the details to Democratic newspapers. The Democrat in this city received one of these propositions and treats it (which we give in full) as follows:
The following letter was marked personal and received yesterday: INDIANAPOLIS, Ind., Sept. 16, '84 To the Editor:

Indianapolis News The state superintendent of public instruction has not omitted to call the especial attention of teachers to the importance of teaching the history of the secession war. In the progress for county institute workaday is set apart for the discussion of the part Indiana played in the war. In the outline, attention is called to the fact that this state furnished 128 regiments of infantry, 13 of cavalry, one of heavy artillery, besides 26 betteries of light artillery and various independent companies. The Indiana troops numbered 208,367. The services of these troops are set forth, and other important historical farts are related. In the township institutes, also, provision is made for a discussion of the relations of Indiana to the war, and every teacher in the state is famished a copy of the outline containing a few of the more important deeds of the Hoosier state and her troops.

A Letter From a Former Resident of Terre Haute—A Trip From Denver There Hundred
Miles Up Into the Mountains. -----
The following letter from Mr. Edward Husted, formerly of this city, has been received by Mrs. Ida Harper, his sister, who kindly consented to its publication:
I have been waiting quite a while to send you this letter describing our eventful trip from Denver 800 miles up into the mountains. That I am able to write you at all I am truly thankful, for almost hourly during the past few weeks I have expected to pass in my checks, but now that we are all safe I
vrwmre
do not regret accepting the invitation to visit this celebrated cattle ranche. Such narrow and merciless escapes can only be accounted for by the fact that we have with us a Mascotte.
To begin at the beginning we, four of us, left Denver at 5 a. m. Our outfit consisted of a light side-bar wagon and two good horses, bedding, provisions. rifles, shotguns, knives, pistols, etc. The morning was lovely. We rode past the elegant partially completed mansion of Brick Pomeroy and many other beautiful residences. We had an uneventful ride for twentyfive miles, only losing our way once. We were then in sight of the ranche which was to be our stopping place for the night but drove for two hours before reaching it. Mr. M., our host, had preceded us and we were welcomed with a nice country dinner, and the next morning enjoyed watching them brand yearlings.
Until we reached Ft. Collins we were surrounded on all sides by well cultivated farms. The irrigation gives the farmer water at any place on his land he may desire. The engineering of these ditches is very fine. They all have the same fall and some of them seem to run up hill. They cross each other, flow side by side, cross low places in flues on high trestle work and in this way every field is supplied with water. After leaving here we soon struck into the foothills. Previously our ride had been almost entirely over the plains. At night [illegible] a stream, of which there are a great number, turn our horsec loose, unpack and get supper. We have a frying pan, kettle, coffee pot, etc. Our dishes are mostly of tin, but we have a good supply. Mr. M. is a good cook, so this part always fell to him. We others would bring water, wood, and "set the table," which consists of a large oilcloth with white spread. At every meal we had some kind of game, rabbit, duck, squirrel, etc., and good butter, milk and eggs, procured at the last farm house. Our

tains. We pass Gov. Rout's residence, and stop for a short time, by previous engagement. Presently we reach a gorge and begin to ascend. Our road is rocky, and alongside of us is a very turbulent stream, which has overflown its banks and comes rushing down in a vast torrent, at times reaching the hubs of the wheels. Above us the trees meet and the branches almost pull us from our beats. I am very much frightened, but conceal it, as I am heartily tired of being called a "tender-
visited a barber, and made several calls on old friends. About noon the next day we reached the highest mountains, and now climbing began in earnest. We all got out and walked up the winding road for miles, at an angle of forty-five degrees. The road is only wide enough for one team. On one side the mountains reach up almost out of sight and two feet to the other side of the wagon is an almost bottomless canyon with the usual rapid stream. To start down this would be a sure and horrible death. One of us always went ahead to warn any teams that we might meet, as there are occasional stopping places where they can pass. About 2 o'clock we came to the first snow, and, in my anxiety to reach it, I quite forgot the lightness of the air, and when I reached the wagon, after a short run, I was prostrated for quite a while. We now struck the timber, and rode many miles through endless forests of pine and cedar. When the Indians were driven out of here a few years ago they set fire to the
woods, and now the partially burned logs are piled upon each other to a depth of three feet. Snow banks were very common now, and we used the melted snow for supper and breakfast. It was very cold, and during the night a heavy frost fell.
I have hesitated to tell you of our troubles, of which we had a great many. Coming down one of those steep hills we upset and landed twenty feet below on the rocks, wagon bottom side up and everything on the ground. Strange to say, no one was hurt, but we were all badly frightened. Another mishap was in crossing the Michigan river. The stream was away out of its banks and we attempted the wrong ford. After much difficulty we reached an island. The stream was rushing by at an awful rate. With the assistance of a ranchman near by we reached the opposite shore, and found the bank to be a bluff five feet straight up. Our horses were swimming and the current almost carrying us away. At last we leaped for the shore, which we reached, and by a great effort got the horses and wagon up, only to find there was a long slough to cross which came up to the wagon bed. We finally got over and crossed several streams just as bad. Once we got into a bog and had to walk two miles for assistance. But the worst of all was in crossing North Platte river. Here we unloaded everything and paddled across in a boat that half-filled with water every trip. We made a cable with ropes and led the horses and with the same rope dragged the wagon over. The stream is very deep and swift, and after getting the wagon started out of the mire on the bank it whirled over and over as if it had been a straw, and landed on one side. It took us just three hours and a half to cross the river.
These are our worst adventures and we will not have them to contend with again, as we will not return till the streams go down. We are now in the great North Park, a space 200 miles long and thirty miles wide, at an altitude of 8,500 feet, the most beautiful county that can be imagined, surrounded completely by snow-capped mountains. It consists of one fertile valley after another, separated by higher lands so level on top they can scarcely be called hills. In each valley is a clear, cool stream of water. The climate is too cold for farming, but it is the stockman's paradise and the cattle are the finest I ever saw. These valleys and hills are alive with antelope. I can see 200 in a day and often thirty in one herd. We have the steaks at every meal. There are about 500 settlers here and only four women. Our house consists of three pleasant rooms, each with a window, and the doors are of dried skins. We have plenty of nice horses, milk eight cows and have excellent eating. Our host served three years as missionary to India, was lost at sea and remained two days in the water where 575 men were drowned, served three years in the war and had one lung shot out, was in a terrible railroad wreck where many were killed, and as he is still alive we have styled [illegible].
bed is a large "cow-boy's blanket," a
piece of canvass [sic] about eighteen feet by ten feet. We put this on the ground and at one end spread our comforts and blankets, then lie down and pull the other end up over us. The first night I felt very nervous. It seemed so strange to lie there on the ground gazing at the stars. I have since become so used to it that I go to sleep the moment I touch the bed.
The next morning I woke very early. It was just getting light and I could not sleep. I built a big fire and started out for a walk. I found myself on the top of a large hill to the east of us. The sun was just peeping above the horizon. Before me, in the valley, were four beautiful lakes, a herd of cattle were grazing in the distance, and at the foot of the hill was a rustic, vine-covered log cabin. All back of me was in twilight. I could see our fire in the distance. A stream below me was dashing over its rocky bed. I sat there along time and never shall forget the beautiful scene.

We have nothing to do but lie around and sleep and read or go hunting. The weather is lovely during the day, but at night we build a big fire and sit around till bedtime. We are the first "tourists" to visit the place. The men here are all so pleasant and cordial. Every one is welcome. On our way we stopped at a ranche where no one was at home and went in and prepared dinner with their provisions. While we were at dinner the owners, three brothers, came in and insisted upon our staying over night. We are
all going bear hunting in a few days. We went elk hunting yesterday; climbed the mountains to a height of 12,000 feet. We came to a chain of beautiful lakes about fifty feet apart. They are very transparent and about twenty-five feet deep. On their surface are the most exquisite water lilies, the size and color of a large orange, some, however, being bright red. Some of the stems are fourteen feet long. The banks are brilliant with hardy wild flowers. The outlet of these lakes is a most picturesque stream flowing through a ravine and falling over the rocks in some places twenty feet high. After we reached home and rested we went across the creek and slid on the snow shoes sixteen feet long. This drift is twenty feet deep and the stream has made way through it. Doesn't this strike you as a novel way of spending July and August.
I have not told you half and yet know you are tired reading this long letter. By the time it reaches you shall be in Leadville, where I expect to be very pleasantly and profitably lo-
feet hanging in front of him, barking furiously, yet, at the least move on our part he instantly turns the other end and, with a sudden flirt of his bushy tail, disappears in his hole below. Here live, in one happy family, the dogs, owls, rabits and rattle-snakes. These holes are very numerous and often lead down to water. I have seen thousands of the first three animals but no rattlesnakes.
After reaching the foot hills there is a great change in the scenery. I am now all exclamation points. Great boulders tower above us, rocks as big as a large house seem to be hanging by one corner on to the sides of the moun-
foot." My companions have all been in the mountains before. We finally get safely through this, and, as I calmly t view it from above, I think it the t grandest sight I ever beheld, but I have thought this so many times since.
About dusk we saw a bear up in the hills, but did not get it We struck camp on the mountain side, and after supper we climbed up the almost perpendicular bluffs and viewed a magnificent sunset. Each day was a repetition of these scenes, only as we got farther into the mountains everything was on a grander scale. At night we could hear the wild cats howl. We passed ranches and cabins at long intervals. Their names, like those of the mountains, are derived from some early association, such as "Dead Man's Ranche," "Dirty Woman's Ranche," "Lover's Leap," etc. Then there are Steamboat Rock, Turtle Rock and endless castles and ruins. In the twilight, especially, these assume the shapes from which they receive their names.
We finally reach Laramie plains and ride for hours by the side of the Union Pacific railroad, with its miles of snow sheds, just like a covered bridge. It seems hardly possible that these beautiful hills and plains, covered with flowers, are the scenes of so much suffering and distress during the winter months.

8oog of Praise"—Psalm olll, 1-88.
Mrs. Emily Huntington Miller, in her "Home Talks Abont the Word," bas this about David's Song of PraiBe, which has been selected for the lesson:
In the song which we talked about last week David said it was no use to try to count up the many loving thoughts of God toward us, because they were more than could be numbered. But whenever be thought about it his heart was so full of gratitude that he could not help telling over some of the things, for fear he might sometimes forget how many thero were.
This song is juBt talking to himself, and it sounds to me as if he was all alone, looking up, perhaps, at the shining stars that he calls the hosts of the Lord, set like servants to do his pleasure. He has been sick, and the Lord had raised him up to health he had been in great danger, and the Lord, had delivered him he had sinned, and the Lord had forgiven him he bad been poor and needy, and the Lord had supplied all his wants and given him friends and home and everything that heart could wish. So, when he thinks it all over, he whispers to himself: "Bless the Lord, O my soul, and forget not all his benefits who forgivetb all thine iniquities who healeth all thy diseases who redeemeth thy life from destruction who crowneth thee with loving kindness and tender mei cies who satiefieth thy mouth with good things."
And then David remembered that this tender Father, who was so good to him, cared for all his children who were in trouble, and when wicked men oppressed the poor they had a helper who would surely deliver them so he counted this among the benefits for which he gave thanks: "TheLord executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed." "But, after all, the things which seemed most wonderful to David waB that God should be so patient and full of pity to us in spite of our sins, and go on loving and forgiving us, and he said to himself: "He in full of mercy he loves to forgive us he pities us as a father pities nis little children that have done wrong and got into trouble. There is no measure for His love and pity it is as high as the heaven is above the earth, and as wide as the east is from the west and it lasts always—from everlasting to everlasting."
When David thought- of this great love that forgave our Bins and put them away out of sight and remembered them no more, he wanted every thing to join in his song of praise, He called upon God's strong angels, that stand about his throne and goat his bidding everywhere he said to them, "bless the Lord, ye his angels, that excel in strength, that do his commandments, hearkening unto the voice of his word."
He called upon the sun and moon and stars tojpraise the God who set their hosts in the heavens, and upon
We can not do it unless we study His word, until His commandments are written in our hearts, so that we may never forgot them for obedience is the best proof of love, and the way our Lord Jesus Qhrist told us to show our love to Him was by keeping His commandments. The weakest little child who "remembers His command meets to do them," praises God as well as His strong angles that wait for His word and do His will

Her dainty feet tripped on with scarce a sound Her ankles swelled to beauty unrepealed.'' Lost in a wonderous mass of draping skirts
That half suggested what they half ooncealed. ,i No, tense, impassioned arm e'er closer held'
A dear one's loving, unresisting form, And still more closely as new raptures thrilled And fiercer frensies surged in quenohleee swarm, Than o'er her budding, nearly rippened breast,

Horses seem to endeavor to find a hole, if there is any lying around, and break their legs. This a mule will not do, nor can he be forced to advance if he thinks then is danger. The horse has more courage, the mule more sense.

How can a watch—no matter how costly—be expected to go when the mainspring won't operate? How can anyone be well when his stomach, liver or kidneys are out of order? Of course you say, "He cannot."
