Mhm American. t). H. BINGHAM, Editor. BllOO KVILLEFridtryHCoTPlng. March Bl, 1871 Prepare for 1872. Everything indicated that the Presidential campaign of next year (says the Journal) wTtl "be one of the most exeiting that ox people hare ever witnessed. For the first time in a period of twelve yeaTS all States of tha Union will give their electoral -votes, and the animus of the Desrocraey, already unmistakably reveal8, -clearly ehowa that a Democratic tritirofh would he followed hy an attempt to undo and reopen what most people have -come -to regard as a final settlement of the issGes of the war. The advocates of-the Calhoun doctrine of Stata Rights were ever moTe ciive in the Democratic party than now, and of all the leaadiog Democratic papers of the North, the New York World is about the only one that is 4i?posed to recognize the validity rf the coDBtitation&l amendments The few leaders of the party who 4esired jhat the next canvass should be made upon questions of finance, tariff and taxation have been silenced, and instead of the gospel of conciliation as preached by Mr. Hendricks at New Orleans, the bugle blast of lilau is summonsing the hosts of Democracy North and South to the work of revolution. These men say that it is idle of talk to tariffs, currency and taxation until the recon--structura measures cf Congress sad the Constitutional amenumenis are trampled under the feet of the victorious Democracy. It is easy to see that this will resurrect and reanimate what Northern Democrats have been fondly hoping were ths '4ead issues" of the war', and with these revived, the perfect and overwhelming triumph of Republicanism ia assured. In aa able leader on the subject the New York Tri bune says; "Few now living ever witnessed a Presidential contest whiah convulsed thecountry in -every part' as it will be stirred by the contort of 182. W renewedly urge, therefore, the Republicans of every State to begin at .once their quiet preparations for the momentous struggle, by severally inducing very one whoa they can influence to take and read some Republican newspaper. -The result will probably be determined by the fidelity or lukewarmness wherewith this duty bhall be fulfilled in the year ot silent preparation already well begun. We shall surely triumph if the people (hall be seasonably and generally enlightened with regard to the animus and purpose of oar adversaries; while, should half of the 3a be left in ignorance, we may be defeated. "We fear nothing from the arguments, "tke appeals, the sophistries, of the Democratic journals; we deprecate only their systematic aeppreseion of facts. They habitually and studiously conceal from their readers the taost significant and momentous levelopments of the rebel spirit stiil active in several of the late -Slave States and smoldering in the rest." f: . V ""vmy w hare uepubucaa newspapers are generally disused and read will the voters ba made acquainted with the most esseutiai fact3 whereon our next choice ot President should be based. "Republicans who are alive in off years! you must Jo the work that is now pres sing! v nee Jed! J-.ach ot jon know trom five to irty persons who will vote in 1872 if th?a living, yet who are taking no po litical journal whatever, lou'cao induce a part of them to take a good one, if you make the requisitj effort. If you have -a goo and caeap Republican paper issued in yorr vicinity, give that the preference; if you must look further to find one of the right sow, do cot hesitate; if one will take a certain journal and another another, accommodate each but do not let a month pass without having avery one within the range of ycur inJuence supplied with jwMr Republics journal that he will take to his preside and read in his hours of leisure. This is the duty of the hour; do not postpone or neglect it!'' "Meu who employ others are often accused cf dictating the votes of their employes generally without reason. He mho attempts this is more apt to pet the voter cgaiuet hi3 party than to secure his ot. iut every employer might and should do his best to extend the circula tion ef tco- i political journal) among those who work for him. A. word in season may induce s;vcra! of them to take a journal which will imbue them -ith just views of public aJ'airs, and arm them with the facts where by those views are sustained and fortified. L.ach of tha voters, thus enlightened, becomes thereby a witness for the truth sad diffuser of light and z-al among his associates and neighbors. This is the right wcy to help the Good Cause; and thus the raost quiet citizen may render it most effective service at a very noderate cost." These remarks apply with special force to Indiana. In no State of the Union is the Democratic press so malignant and so utterly regardlesa of truth as the most of the papers of that party in Indiana. Cal-1 umnies and forgeries about leading Re-, publk-ans are invented, circulated and persisted in wnn a piazen tHrnntprr tfc.t is unparalleled. Rightly presuming upon he ignorance of their subscribers, the .publishers of heee unscrupulous journals make tie ssost astounding drafts upon heir credulity. There are some honorable exeejtfioDg, which we note with pleasre. When the New Albany Ledger, for instance, was betrayed into the publication of ttie Sentinel's forgery upon Mr. Colfax, it promptly made the correction as soon as that gentleman publicly denounced it; but the ckaaxJ". papers of which the Sentinel

upon prominent men of the It-publican

party for years. The best way cf encountering and isposiogdf-sucb ealumnies ia to circulate the truth. Jet Republicans give a cenereus support to their home papcra, and those who sre able can do good -service to tie cause by subscribing for and sending eome good reliable Republican paper to those of their neighbors who are not able to pay for it. The New Boundary Line. According to the articles of peace, the lino of the demarcation between France and Germaay commences in the northwestern frontier at the Cacton of Oattenom in the Department of the Moselle; runs tbence to Thionville, Briery, and Gorze; skirts the south-western and southern boundaries of the arrondissement of Juetz; thence proceeds in a direct line to"Chateau Salins, and at Pcttoncourt, in that arron dissement, turns and follows the crest of the mountains between the valleys of the rivers Seille and Vezooze, in the Depart ment of Muerthe, to the Canton of Schirmeck, in the north-western corner of the Department of the Voges; thence it runs to Saales, dividing that Commune, and after that coincides with the western fron tiers of the Upper and Lower Rhine De partments until it reaches the Canton of Belfort; thence it passes diagonally to the Canton of Delle, and then terminates by reaching the Swiss frontier. An alteration made at the last moment in these bjunda. ries gives Belfort to France, and cedes ad actional territory around Metz to Germany Germany is to possess her acquisitions fiom France in perpetuity. Lawlessness in the South. The Piesident.eent the following mes sage to Congress last week: To the Senate and House of Represent Ives: A condition of affairs now exists in some of the States of the Union rendering life and property insecure, and the carrying of mails and collection or the revenue daneerou. The roofs that such a stata of affairs exists in eome localities are now before the Senate. That the power to correct these evils ia beyond the control of the State authorities I do not doubt-, but the power of the Executive of the United State?, acting within the limits of existing laws, sufficient tor the present emergency, is not clear: therefore, I urgently recommend such legislation as in the judgment of Congress shall effectually secure life, liberty and property in all parts of the United States. It may be expedient to provide that such law aa shall be passed in pursuance of this recommendation shall expire at the end of the next Congress. There is no other subject on which I would recommend legislation during the present session. (Signed) U.S.Grant. Romanism. An article in the American indicates the manner in which Protestants ought to speak of Roman Catholics. Does the wiiter mean that those who favor religious liberty ought to speak approvingly of those who have forbidden Protestant religion where they have the power, and boast of what they will do in our own land if they ever gain the numerical majority? We offer for the consideration of the writer of that article the following taken from the New York Advocata: L. Happily for us, Romanism has become so intoxicated by its successes that it openly declares its purpose to overthrow our institutions. Priest Hecker says, "In fifteen years we will take this country, and build our institutions over the grave of Protestantism. There is, ere long, to be a State religion in this country, aod that State religion is to be Roman Catholic' Bishop O'Connor, of Pittsbun?, says 'Religious liberty ia merely endured until (he opposite can be carried into effect without peril to the Catholic world." The Archbishop of St. Louts says, "If the Catholics ever gain which they surely will an immense numerical majority, re ligious freedom in this country will be at an end.' The Pope speaks of ''the delirium cf toleration," asserts the right to punish "criminals in the order pf ideas,'' and pronounces "accursed" every man who denies his infallibility. Prot estants, Americans, you hear the clank ot the fetters your wily foe is forging for your limbs will you lie still until they are riveted en: Jiicn you ceserve to wear them. Governor IlolJcn has been found guilty of six of the articles of impeachment preferred against him by the North Carolina House of Representatives, and au order was passed ia the Senate by a rote of 36 to 13, removing him from office, and disqualitying him from holding any place of trust or profit in the State, it was a strict party vote. The President bas issued a proclamation setting forth that as the Governor of South Carolina has called upon him for soldiers to suppress lawlessness in that State, therefore these armed bands are com manded to disperse within twenty days, as required by law, or the military forces of the United States will be employed German citizens desiring to enter Franee are not permitted to do so, the reasons given being that the French government is unable to protect them. Ilerr Simpson has fecen elected President of the pinuiar branch uf the German Parliament, Prince Ilohenlohe first Vice President, and Herr Weber second. There was an outbreak in Paris on the evening of Wednesday in the Place Venju

A Strange Disease.

A Btrauge malady known as the spotted fewer broke out about four wtneks ago, an Sehoha-rie County, New York, and has prodaeed the -most fearful -ravages. An exchange states that in GallupvilIe, which has a population of less than S00, there have been eighty-three deaths in three weeks. An equal death rate in Albany would amount to 4,210; while in rew York it would be 52,000 deaths in three weeks, the present death rate of New York being ly COO per week. The mortality of (sal. lapville for the past three weeks ia without a precedent an tke history of the country. Of those attacked only -one haslet recovered. The disease is spreading. One of the physicians in Schoharie reports 1,200 cases as now existing in a district of less than ten miles square. The disease thus far only attacks women and children. Only one man has yet oHed, a Mr. Black. The doctors were much divided as to the cause of the terrible disease. The most of them attribute it to strange vegetaVe matter in the water, the wells being lower than ever knowti before. They recommend that the water be boiled before -using, as the best and only way to arrest the pread of the disease. The fever commences with pain in the skead, atid exte.nds down to the spine, accompanied with vomiting. The tongue blackens, and the face, from the forehead down below the eyes, assumes a dark color, with purple spots. The patients are delirious most of the time, and so remain till death ensues, which is in -about three days. The feer has produced a perfect panic in the infected dis trict, maimer it difficult to obtain ouiscs cri or people to lay out those who die. The worst visitation of the cholera is as nothinr compared with the excitement now o r existing in Schoharie County. CotresfiondeDce at the Indiana American Letter from Illinois., Qciscy, Ills., March 22, 1871. Dear Bingham, A long time ago I sent you a letter, and many times since then have thought I would send another, but hitherto 1 have not done as I thought would do. Shall I now write you an essay on "Spring," and tell you how sweetly the birds and frogs sing, and how the flowers are blushing into beautj? Suspecting that you will have birds and flowers and balmy breeres in due season, I will omit any leDgthy mention of such things. Our city rejoices in warm weather, and busi ness is more active since navigation is re sumed. It is seldom that the river is open from St. Louis to St. Paul so early in March, and seldom that warm weather sets in so soon I was surprised and pleased to meet our old friend Ed. Smith on our streets thi week. His home is at Keokuk, and he visits the cities along the river purchasing grain. As so many of my old Franklin County friends pass through Quincy on their way to Kansas, I occasionally get a glimpse of some of them. I have heard so much of Missouri and Kansas that I propose taking a week's ruu in that direc tioo, beeinniog to-morrow, and I may be able to tell you how the land lies farther west. Of one thing, however, 1 am tully satisfied, and that is, that men are not wise in passing through Illinois to get land farther toward the setting sun. A small farm in Illinois will soon male a farmer independent, and no amount of land will be of much value to a poor farmer. 1 do not blame anybody for leaving the "Beech," nor for getting out of Ripley County; but there is no need of passing through Illinois to find a comfortable home. A Methodist preacher told me yesterday that five years ago he bought thirteen acresof ground near Bloomington at $150 per acre, and ia less than three years afterward was offered in cash S10.000 for ten acres of it. Last Fall I bought a little patch for a future home, and was offered $350 for my bargain in a few days, but I wanted $1,200, and so we did not trade. By the way, two of onr Illinois Conference preachers are in luck. Rev. Mr. Falconer, of Decatur, a superannuated minister, has fallen heir to the snug sum of $200,000 by the death of an aunt in Scotland None of my wealthy aunts in Scotland die. Rev N. P. Heath, formerly of Indiana, but now stationed in Jackson j ville, is expecting about SI 000,000 soon,j as bis wife's share of an $S0,000 000 estate in the East. It is thought that the interest on that sa in connection with hissalary, ill keep him in comfortable circumstan ces the remainder of his life. Who knows, Mr Editor, how soon vour ship and mine will come over the sea? and who cares? Until then we will work and wait. Of political matters I cannot write, for we have bo excitement here; but there is a stir about temperance, and I am Had that staid, beer-drinking old Brookville is ing also, lou need some temperance excitement there. If I did not like some of the Laurelites so well, I would say that ittle city will soon equal Chicago not in wealth and population, but in morals. A theater, dram shops, (they generally go ogether.) hrst-class murders, and gam bling helis in abundance. Not such was bat city when Father Conwell kept whis ky holes out of the city limits, and not such as now would it be but for whisky Rut the sun is shining too brightly, and j it is too pleasant out of doors for me to bo writing ever to the American and I will co aod see my green and radishes that are growing nicely. Health good, people kind, Lome pleasant, weather beautiful, money scare. May siait you soon. Yours, W. R. G. France. THE JNSCRRECTIOX. London, March 27. The News has a special from Paris stating that the election passed off quietly, and resulted in an overwhelming Communist majority. The revolutionary authority is completely dominant, and the abdication of Admiral Soisset and the Mayors increases the success of the aevolution, which within a week will spread to all the large towns. and render the position of the government ite rural uistricis amenable. , .At

For tha American. . Reply to "Small Inventor." Jfr. Eklitor, In ny" article of the 17th inst. I threw out eome hints to the pub"Uc to be careful how they dealt with a set of floating patent right -venders. 1 had no idea of throwing a straw in the way of

any benes-t -inventor or any mentertoos improvement which would be of any ad vantage to fbe public. This it seems, has given offence to some person who styles himself a 'Small Inven tor," who iaTiis wrath says 1 M.oot worthy of the name, of "Small Farmer." Now I wont get mad and retaliate by say ing he is unworthy of the name of "Small Inventor." I .believe him to- be one of. the smallest kind, who, after wakeful days and sleepless -nights, 'conceived nd brought forth the idea that I cultivate ground with hoe and wooden plow. He comes to this conclusion from reading my article in which I argue in faver of deep and thorougli plowing and cultivation, and in favor of implements that will do the greatest amount of the best kind of work with the least amount of horse power Who can doubt his having a prolific mind? He says I labor to impress the public with the idea that all the patents of im portance have expired. I simply said that some of them bad expired and the machines were in general use, a-nd that late patents had not takeu their place. I don't think the Patent Office a humbug, but'I thiiit a large .number of that kind of bugs comes out of it, fly over the coun try and sting those who touch them. Mr. ''Inventor," let me call your attention to a few facts. A large number of patents have been issued for burniog'iluids They are generally kerosene mixed with more volatile liqnids to increase the profits on its sale. These fluids are sold to deal ers under fancy names. The number of deaths and accidents occasioned by these fluids during the last year would fill a column of a large newspsper. Last sum mer the Terre Haute & St. Louis Railroad Company built a depot with what was called patent fire-proof timber or lumber. The carpenters who worked on the building sickened, and five or six died. The matter was investigated, and it was found that the lumber was saturated or filled with arsenic, corrosive sublimate and salt. The workmen inhaled the poison, which caused their -death. The friends of those deceased and those who still live but who are pcrmently disabled, have brought suit against the Company, laying their dam ages at twenty-five thousand dollars each. It is hoped that they will recover tha amount from the Company, but the paten tees and venders of such mixtures run large unhung. There is another class of patents worth less but lees wicked. 1 will take th Patent Office Reports for 1S67 as an aver age. 1 nod that about patents were issued for cultivators, 150 for planters about the same number for washing machines, churns, &c, Most of the patent have been peddled over the country and sold in county, township and shop rights Take the last ten years and you will find a thousand of eaeh, all claiming to be im provements. Now follow ia the tracks ot the agents or venders, and I veoture you will not find one in a hundred in use. G in the largest agricultural warehouses and you will and but tew ot 6ucu article marked patent. Patents are issued tor almost any little change or alteration in an old machine. Most cf them are for a lot of old and well known principles in combination with some little trap, trigger or other device which may be dispensed with or something substituted iu its place. Hence I am in favor of the law requiring venders of pat ent rights to record thir claim as paten ted. I will refer to one case which is a fair sample of many. Not many years ago a patent plow was brought into this part of the country The agents, as usual, claimed that the whole plow was patented, when the fact was, hero was but one small point patented. I'he patentee claimed the forming of one piece, the share and land side, by meao of welding (a very old idea.) In combination with the little non-esential point it was a good old fashioned plow with the patent, and full as good, if not better ' without the patented poiot. If his claim' bad been on record, every person could I nave examined it. Ana i ooia mat any I hold that anythin that won't bear examination should be ruled out of the market. If my friend, the "Small Inventor," dc rends upon the Patent Office furnishing copies of all eiatms that may be appli- d for, he will fend it a very slow eoach. He can get jch copies by enclosing green backs to Munn & Co. or the hundred and one patent attorneys at Washington who make their living in that way. but ven ders of patents are on the wing and can't wait. Now let me say to my friend. tb "Small Inventor, that if he has invented or in tends to invent anything that will be ot advantage to himself and the public, that I was not throwing stones at hini, and be need not dodge it is "them other fellers" 1 want to hit and that I don't cultivate my acres with a plow all wood nor a boe ol the same material I don't liie bard work well enough to do that, but use the best 1 can find, whether covered by patent or open to the world.

SeymotEf 3ailroacL Owing to a pouring rain, which Von

tinned -during the whole of Saturday -after noon and -evening, the meeting at the Court House on Saturday evening was very thinly attended. At eight o ciock the nreeti-cg was called to order by Councilman Carpenter, and on bis motion Dr. M. vT Bray was called to preside, aod the representatives oT the press requested to act as Secretaries. At the invitation ot the lnairmau, uov Robert Pattifon, of the Seymour Koad, made an explanation .of the affairs of the road as far as it has progressed, the substance of which was the same as that published in Wednsday's Journal. The estimated cost of construction was reported by the engineer at 57.i)WJ per mile including bridging. The Col stated at leBgth the topography of fbe territory over which the road ran, and at the request f the chairman, one of the secretaries read -the contract with the Lake Shore Railroad Company for its construction. This instrument provides that if S900. 000 bubscriptions can not be raised in the counties through which it passes in -aid of the road, then the franchises, etc., eonveyed to the Lake Shore Company shall be reconveyed to the Seymour Company. The Seymour Company are to work up the local aid subscriptions, of which they have apportioned. $500,000 to Rvansville, 150 000 of which is payable as soon as the road shall be built and trains running from Evansville to the intersection of the N. A. &"St. Louis K R , or, in case that road is not then constructed, when trains are running to a point fifty miles from this city. The subscription is payable in the city's bouds In answer to a question of J P. Elliott Esq , Col. Pattison was still more explicit saying that before Evansville's first installment of bonds became due, she would have fifty miles of road, worth $7,000 per mile, or more than the value of the fir-t payment. Mr. II. E. Read being called for, read a lengthy address oa the subject of railroads and their relation to Evgnsviile, in which occurs this rather reuiarkrble paragraph: Tl.t road complete would be road of the Unitei States, connecting 8n Francisco, on the Paciic coast, with New York, on the Atlantic, passing through the heart of the world. It is an enterprise so gigan tic as to overshadow ail of -our railroad enterprises. Mr Carpenter bei-ng called upon, made a very sensible and practicable argument in favor of "fbe proposition for aid Messrs Alvah Johnson and I. W. Adams signified that they were in favor of the proposition, and Messrs. Isaac Ken, E G Van Riper and Kobert A. Hill Esq . made speeches of considerable length in favor of the road. The 6peech of Mr. Hill was pronounced, by those who heard it, as one of great ability and power. At the conclusion ef Mr. Ilnl s speech the following resolutions were unani mously adoptedr Hr-sohed, That the pr-oposilioa of Col. Pattisoo is one that will, if carried into effect, promote the prosperity of Evansvilie, and, in the opinion of this meeting, afford this city an eastern and southeastern railroad connection that possesses superior railroad advantages over any proposed railway hitherto contemplated, and we pledge ourselves to support the measure by our votes and influence, whenever the ruanagetucut see proper to ask the city f Civansvine to issue tier oonds t aid the construction of the proposed road. Resolved, That we ask the City Coun. cil to order an election, in pursuance of the provisions of the City Charter, to ascertain whether the mxjority of the quuli fied voters of the city are in favor of tuh subscription of stock, whenever the Company shall, through a proper agent, indi cate that such a subscription by this City i- desired said election net to be later than the first of May Reso'vea That Col. Pattison will be warranted in using the expression of opin iou by this meeting as an index of the intentions of our citizens, in submitting his propositions to the several ootintic nd corporations along the line of the proposed road.
