C. H. BINGHAM, Editor. - BHOOKVILLEFriday Horning, Kay 5, 1871. General Grant's Ability. In the recent 6peech of Mr. Sumner, and -ta many private utterances, the Senator has reflected severely upon the intelligence and capacity of General Grant, and in a -way that circumstances will certainly not justify. Of course it is not pretended that the President is a great and distinguished tcholar and orator as Sumneris, and in the extent and variety of his information he must, feke most of out public men, suffer in comparison with the Senator; but co far from Jhere being a deficiency in the President of ability to discharge the ad ministrative functions of his office with credit, he has faculties in that direction which are remarkable, and not surpassed by Mr. Sumner himself. " Take, for instance, the recent message ' inviting legislation on the Southern out- . . -1 -11 Tgeo. Jjeaviug uui vi iuc uaso mil tjuca tioDS of the policy recommended, and looking at it as a public document design ed to expresB the mind of the author, and it was an admirable paper. Plain, clear concise, forcible, and in good taste, it cov ered the whole ground and said nothing to offend, and lett no weak places to invite attack and give occasion for dama ging comment. This sensible and judi cious production was written by the Presi dent in his room at the Capitol, in the presence of his Cabinet and several dis "tiDjruished senators, and was sent in to the Senate as written, without alteration or revision, and has been received every 'whereas an admirable document as re gards good taste, happy expression, and --forcible statement. A bungler in such a presence'could no have written it. A man doubtful of hi own powers would not have undertaken it and one sucb fact is a convincing proof of the error of Mr. Sumner. In its brevity and terseness it rivaled the messages of Mr. Lincoln, and tike them it destroyed the golden opportunity for a hundred speeches, and emptied the fountains of a Mississippi of eloquence, which could have been poured out had the President been as verbose as some former Presidents Let us be just as well as peaceful. New Kailroad Line. We copy the following from the Liberty " Herald. We hope our citizens will care fully peruse it, and not overlook their certain interests: The following letter, which we are per mitted to publish, explains itself. We have no time for comments on this im portant subject this week: Greensbcrg, Ind , "1 April 21st, 1871. James Kennedy Esq., Dear Sir It is a long time since I have heard from : you. 1 address you now on a business matter in which your town and ours are alike interested. You are aware that a company of Eastarn capitalists propose at once to construct a 11. It. from Eaton to Evansville, by the way of Seymour. A line has been surveyed from Seymour 'to Brookville, thence to Coliege Corner by the friends of that route. I am fully satisfied that if the road was run through by the way of Greensburg and Liberty that it would be found much cheaper, pass through a much better country, and would not materially lengthen the line. Colonel Patterson was here on jester , day to see us on behalf of the company and says that if we can show a cheaper and shorter route they will adopt 'ours. They want nothing until the road is a certainty. Evansville has subscribed $300,000, and the road will be commenced at once on the Southern end. Our prop osition is that we have a preliminary survey of our route. Our City Council has -appropriated ?300 to run the tine through our country, but it will have to be extendeded to the State line. t ill not your city join us in the expense and carry the matter our Ion, with us, are very much interested in this matter, as it opens a Southern and Northern through line and .gives us competition, which is the only -thing that will reduce our rates for freight. Please talk with your leading meu and let me know what vou desire to do in the premises. Yours, respectfully, James Gavin. The hombardmcnt goes steadily on at 'Paris, and the insurgents have been compelled to abandon Fort Issy. During May the Tieasury Department will purchase ten millions of bonds and sell eight millions in gold. A New Orleans dispatch says the Bon net Carre crevasse is over one thousand -two hundred feet wide, but there is no change iu the situation there. The recent decision by the Supreme 'Court of Indiana affirming the constitutionality, of the law by which counties and townships are authorized, by a majority vote, to levy and collect taxes to be appro priated in aid of the construction of railroads, is having a marked effect in stimu' lating the works already begun, and in calling into existence new enterprises. The Supreme Cotrrt of the United States will not announce its decisions in the following cases until October.- The legal ,-tender case; the case from Kentucky, in evolving the constitutionality of the civil .rights bill; the case of the disputed PresDyienan property in ii.eniucKy, ana one from Georgia involving the question of the validity of notea given fir slaves before the issuaur.e of the 'emancipation jprocla-Uiatiou.

Circuit Court. The Franklin Circuit Cosrt (Judge

Hanoa presiding) convened in regular session on Monday. The first two days were taken up with toe selection of Grand and Petit, Juries, several jurors who were ordered to serve not having made their appearance va the first day, and also the hearing of several cases of violation of iquor law. Many of the defendants in these cases plead guilty and were fined. Several liquor cases were nolle prossed, und various other liquor cases were con tested before the court. The Judge charged the Grand Jury on Tuesday morning at considerable length, and in referring to the various instances of violations of law likely to chme before them he specially charged them to taka cognizance of the adulteration of liquors, drugged and poisonous liquors, &c., that are so extensively sold all over the country to the great injury of those partaking of thorn, and reiterated the charge to them to'see to it that liquor sellers here after Bhould retail only the pure article. The McDonald Cheek murder case came up for trial on Wednesday, and a motion was made for two weeks' postponement of the trial on the ground of the abseace of important witnesses for the defendant. The motion was overruled by the Court, and the trial of this case will most probably be commenced as soou as a jury can be obtained. The counsel for the State in this murder case are Martin M. Hay, Wm. S. Holman, John D. Ilaynes, Omar F. Roberts, Hugh D. McMulIen and Henry Berry Jr. Counsel for defense, Jonathan W. Gc rJon (who is absent), John Schwarts, E. W. Adkinsoo. Thoa. B. Adams and Fielding B:rry. Corrupt Government in New York. The leading citizens of New York are holding great meetings and passing solemn resolutions in order to emancipate themselves from the bad government which crushes them with its overwhelming power The governing of New York has come to be a mere job, and the people of the city are wholly unable to make it anything else. It is encircled with rings which can not be broken by any moral forces which have thus far beeu applied to them. Un der the forms of Democratic freedom, New j York is really cursed with a government more despotic and more hateful than those of the most corrupt capitals of Europe, and there seems to be no help for it. How the Hoosiers Feel Along the -Lime. Mr. F. A. Souii, Secretary of the proposed Southwestern Railroad, is now traversing the line of road through Indiana. On the 19th he writes from Seymour, a note to Judge Haines, in which he says: 'The feeling all along the line is all right, and the prospects are exhilarating as we can desire. We shall build the road without doubt, and if Ohio seconds the action of Indiana we will commence work in 90 days.' Need we say we believe Ohio will second the work of the Hoosiers? Certainly she will. We believe that as soon as the books are opened our citizens along the line from College Corner to the Northeast will soon prove that they know their own interests. There has been too much disappointment felt over the failure of the road last year, to allow any temporizing, any half-way work. We should be as foolish not to accept this opportunitv as the man would be who would turn his back on a handsome annuity. Foi while it will be none the less reliable and substantial, it-wiil continue to grow in value as the country opens and improves. Wo man now lives who can picture half the improvements that will be realized f?om end to end of this great continuous route 23 years hence. It will surpass the most sanguine hopes. Eaton (Ohio) Register. The Joint High Commission has finished its labors. President Grant has returned to Washington from his trip to the West. According to the last ceusus the population of the United States is 38,517,531. $3,121,000 was subscribed to the new loan last week, making the total G1,GS0,000. James M. Mason, of Mason and Slide!! notoriety, died at Alexandria, Va., on Saturdjy. A deputation of Catholics recently asked the Emperor of Germany to intervene to prevent the Italian government from occupying Rome, but he refused to do so. Bismarck has notified the Paris insurgents that if they harm the Archbishop of Paris the Germans will interfere in behalf of the Versailles government. The jury in the Wachsetter murder ease at Indianapolis, after being out thirty minutes, acquitted the defendant. The theory of the defense was that the murder was committed in self defense. Nobody saw any quarrel, but numerous threats made by Christy, the murdered man, agaiust the prisoner were proven, and a general repu tation for quarrelsomeness while drunk. The questions settled by the Joint Iith Commission are the San Juan boundary, the navigation of the St. Lawrence and '

the fisheries. The Alabama claims and m0Vea ' tear3, the claims for damages by British subjects The TehuantepeoTxploring expedition n the South for acts done during the re- has.found a practicable route for the Dabelltorj, have not been settled, and the j rien Canal.

Blooming Grove Items. Bro. Bingham, Sir: Again we write. Our quiet village has not undergone many changes since th last writing. Our Sabbath School was reogauised on last Sabbath with a full corps of officers and teachers selected, bidding fair to accomplish a vast amount of good duing the Summer and Fall campaign. Our farmers are at present quite busy planting corn, the late rains making it quite favorable in that

direction. heat looks quite well on the ridges, but some of our most prominent agriculturists fear the fly will injure it to a great extent, from present indications. Jack Frost played a heavy joke on our fruit; it is almost an entire failure here. Mrs. T. I. Powers is at present quite ill. John Miller's horse don't match as well as he did when we wrote our previous epistle, as he has become quite lame in one of'h'S left ears. T. I. Powers, champion racking match horse matches some better than ha did, owing to his having his rations increased to twelve ears of corn instead cf teu. We noticed our worthy friend Chap. Price, of Waterloo, on our streets this morning. Charlie comes to see us quite often. We judge he is settling up his business in this locality preparatory to coins; West. He is a noble young man, and we think should have conftany in his western tour, he having preference of sexes. We of late boast of a number one paper being published in our burgh eutitled Eveuins: Telegram, under the supervision of Thcs. Ilarrinsitcn. We wish Tom much success in the new enterprise. Our Brass Band is succeeding admirably. We give the names of the company at this writing, as we have unintentionally omitted doing so heretofore: T. Harrington blows the banjo, Newton Sayers beats the violin, Lucius Dukate picks the bones, David Genn touches the tambourine, and Jacob Webb whistles. It is useless to say that the music is splendid. They expect to attend all the principal fairs this fall. Fro tempore we conclude, as there is ne plus ultra at this time. J. C. W. Blooming Grove, May 1st, 1S71. The "Weather and the Crops. Nature is now laying the foundations for trade next season. The country has not yet recovered from recent crop failures. The harvest of 1S70 was a fair average, but it was not full, and the deficiencies resulting from previous failures were only partially made up. To put the country squarely upon its feet we need, at least, a full yield this year. For this farmers are now working hard, and the promise for handsome results is favorable. For fall wheat the weather has been about all that could be desired, and this crop never lookel better than nt this time. With propitious weather in May and June there will be an overflowing wheat harvest. The spring has been unusually favorable for field work. The weather in March and April was such that farmers were able to prepare the ground and get in potatoes j and Binall grain, and now corn planting, which is often delayed until late iu May, is nearly done. Corn was planted early last year, and fhis saved the crop, which was well forward before the drought pet in. The progess this season is still better. Up to Monday the weather was very dry, and there was much complaut; but Tuesday a steady, warm, soaking r-iin fell, which made al! things right, and this was followed yesterday by a warm sun, with occasional showers. This rain also stopped the croaking about the hay crop. And now it may be said that the foundations have been well laid for large crops, and every thing in the farming lino looks favorable. The prospects, indeed, could not bo better. These remarks, however, do not include fruit. The forward weather, which has been so favorable to field crops, forced the fruit ahead of time about three weeks. It was consequently damaged seriously by the heavy frost of Saturday night. The destruction, however, was not so great as at first supposed, and the indications now are that we shall have a moderate crop. But for the frost, the yield would have been enormous. Of course, we can not yot calculate safely upon a large yield of any crop, because everything that grows, whether upon the tree or in the ground, is subject to rust, smut, frost, ro drought and other ills so familiar to farmers but the prospects never were better, and, with favorable growing time and harvest time, the year 1S71 will prove one of great plenty. And good harvests, as matters now stand, mean a revival of business upon a basis at once safe and healthy. Gazette. The state ef Franco is certaiuly deplorable enough. The different engagements which have hitherto taken place between the Communists and the forces of the Assembly, if they do not show progress for the former, indicate surprising weakness in the means wielded by the Government. Neuilly and Clamart still form the points of con tcntion, and instead of making a determined attempt to penetrate into the city, all the Government forces have hitherto done was to throw into Paris a few shells. doubt this play of the artillery from the distance is meant as an experiment, a kind of intimidation, as Thiers is eqully averse to the idea of a real bombardment and to the investment of Paris so as to force a surrender by famine. Great as the perplexity is, the Assembly still recoils from the idea to treat Paris in the manner of the Prussians. Yet things must soon be brought to a crisis. The Germans insist on the payment of the first installment of 500,000,000 francs, a sum which it will be difficult to raise so dongas this terrible state of things continues, and the non-payment of this sum, unless Bismarck inclines to pity, may lead to additional embarrasments. We are not at all surprised to learn from the telegraph that in the course of some remarks made iu the Assemb,y the Prood aged Thiers was

It is evident that the Rev. Dr; Dollinger

of Munich, bas in earnest taken hold of the work of reforming the Roman Catholic Church, and is strongly supported by the civil power of Austria, Bavaria and Wurtemburg, as well as by the Catholic scholars of Germany. The opportunity which Hyacinthe missed will be well improved by Dollinger. The Papal bolt of excommunication will be as powerless to arrest his good work, as it was to stay the career cf Luther in the sixteenth century. We could wish the Bavarian ecclesiastic were thirty years younger; but when his strength, fails, there will be plenty of young men to take his place. Switzerland has found its Dollinger in Father Egli, of Lucerne, who likewise publishes his protest against the decrees passed last year in Rome. This ecclesiastic, too, drew upon him the excommunicating wrath of his superior, the bishop, who, besides, asked from the Government the removal of the heretic from his parish. The Government, on its part, declared that ircould not entertain the idea of interfering with a member of the church who had done nothing but courageously to protest against a new doctrine. The Romans still fear a restoration of the Pope to his temporalities, and though they cannot fix upon the quarter whence the restorers are to come sometimes they are expected from Paris, then from Vien na, and then from Berlin yet, on the whole, the French are most feared. Jfthis view of the matter is sound,we shall be by no means anxious for the restoration peace and the growth of strength in France, and should hope she would find enough to do at ho:ne, without going to Italy in search of wcrk. The Italians are a most ungrate ful race, and they used France badly in the war but that is no reason that the French should renew intervention in Ital ian affairs.
