Carnetpe haa greatly offended against good taste -in thus obtruding his personality in matters where it is not only irrelevant, but absurd. Howovor, aside from this criticism there can be little adverse said to the fine volume now at hand. Woven into the fabric of rambling comment are a number of facts not generally known. The author has taken the trouble to point out the smaller features that have too long been slighted by travelers. Histouy or Fkancb. By M. Guizot and Madame Guizot do Witt. Translated by Robert Black. Illustrated. Vol. I. John B. Alden. New York. Eight volumes. $0 per set; 75 cents each. The marvelous cheapness of these profusely illustrated and handsomely bound volumes must provoke comment everywhere. Each volume is easily worth $2, according to the standard of prices aeked. This is the only complete American edition of this work, which is known as the best popular history of France from the earliest times. The present edition is unabridged, aruMncludea the more than 400 really superb illustrations of the English oditiou, and its convenience of form, for reading and the library shelves, Is superior to any other edition published. Guizot is one of the most brilliant writers whose pen has ever pictured the events of history. His pages fairly glow with eloquent fire. One thrills, as ho roads, and follows on. page after page, as he would an entrancing romance of Bcotfc or Dickons. And what more inviting subject could be chosen for such a writer than the history of France! —France, the home of Chevalier Bayard, and the great Napoleon; of Joan of Arc, and Lafayette; of the Huguenots, and the execrable monsters of St. Bartholomew’s Day; of Voltaire, and Bossuet; of Fenelon.

Marvel's delightful creations, which, from their birth into the world of letters, have had hosts of admirers. This volume, under another title, first appeared in 18W7, sevonteou years ago. It is intended to Incite love for the beautiful and restful in rural places, too often neglected by their owners, who have not the advantage of immediate contact to educate them by example. It, like all of the authors writings, is entertaining to all classes of readers. Lat.'.iss Domini. A selection of spiritual sobers, an cieut and modern. The Century Company, New York. Price, $3.50; a single specimen copy sent postpaid for $2.

Mason's Short Tariff History op thk United States. By David H. Mason, 400 West Randolph street, Chicago. Cloth, $1; paper, 75 cents. By mail. The author, late tariff editor of one of Chicago’s great dailies, is qualified to give such a history, having devoted a score of years to its study. Os practical value now that the tariff issue is so prominently before the people. A 'thorough understanding of this question is absolutely indispensable now. From Fifth Avtsn ue to Alaska. By Edward Pierropont, B. A. G. P. Putnam’s Sons, New York; Bowen. Stewart & Cos., Indianapolis. Price. $1.75. A readable book, marred, as too often the case by beginners, with personal facts of no possible interest to the reading public. The fact that Mr. Plerrepont, B. A, is a graduate of Oxford, is as irrelevant to the trip from New York to Alaska, as is tlio moral code, and should as carefully be excluded. Tim United States Art Directory and Year Book.

Charles Scribner’s Sons, New York; Merrill, Meigs & Cos., Indianapolis. Price, $1.50. The work on these “ballades** and verses is faultless, but the repetition becomes wearisome when the same form is followed through twoscore themes. There is an attractive beauty iu the rhythm and flow of these rhymes, and many will admire them. Brain Exhaustion. By J. Leonard Corning, 31. D. D.

He insists that the Christians were granted the power Os raising tho dead so long as they maintained their simple worship and their community of goods and interests; but that they lost this and other privileges when they accepted the protection of the Emperor Constantine and allied themselves with the political powers of the earth.

PROCEEDINGS OF CONGRESS. THE SENATE. The Agricultural Appropriation Hill I>lscuaswl, Amended and Paused. Washington, May 20. —The Chair laid before the Senate the resolution offered yesterday relating to the New Orleans, Baton Rouge & Vicksburg Railroad Company. Referred to the committee on public lands. Mr. Slater offered a resolution, which lies over one day under the rule, requesting the President to inform the Senate by what authority a commissioner has been appointed, from time to time, to examine and report on sections of the Northern Pacific railroad which were constructed and completed subsequent to the time wuuin which, by law, the road was required to be completed. A bill was passed extending to August 8 the time to commence laying the cable authorized by the act of August 8. 1882. On motion of Mr. Palmer, the bill providing for construction of a pu.die building at Detroit was passed. It provides that not more than $90,000 shall be expended for the site and building. Mr. Miller.of New York, and others endeavored to have similar bills for other cities taken up, but objection was made. The agricultural appropriation bill was taken up and proceeded with by sections. One of the amendments added to the bill by the Senate committee appropriates $20,000 for continuing tile location and sinking of artesian wells on the plains, with a view to reclaiming arid and waste public lands. To this provision Mr. Beck objected. Mr. Hale moved that tho appropriation be limited to two wells, which was agreed to —yeas 28, nays 22. Another addition mado to the bill by the Senate committee was $15,000 for encouragement of silk culture. Mr. George moved to amend by making tho amount $30,000. Tho amendment was defeated —yeas 22. nays 29 —and the amount allowed to stand at $15,000. At the close of the debate the bill was passed without division. On motion of Mr. Manderson, the Senato passed the House hill authorizing construction of a bridge across the Missouri, in Douglas county, Neb. Adjourned.

THK HOU.SK. !>lr. Hewitt Renounces the Recent Letter to Air. Oliver as a Forgery. ■Washington, May 20.—31 r. Rosecrans offered a resolution directing the judiciary committee to inquire into the facts and the law concerning a survey of public lands belonging to Han Francisco. Referred. Mr. Ellis, from the committee on appropriations, asked leave to report a joint resolution making an additional appropriation of SIOO,OOO for relief of sufferers from the overflow of tho Mississippi river and tributaries. Mr. Connelly objected to consider action of the resolution. Mr. Hewitt, of New York, regretted that he should be compelled to rise to a personal explanation, and said he only did so after consultation with his colleagues on the committee on ways and means. A letter had appeared in tho newspapers, addressed to the chairman of the committee on ways and means, signed by Henry W. Oliver, jr., in relation to the tariff bill introduced by him. He was informed by Mr. Morrison that the letter was given to the press before it was delivered to him. and yesterday appeared in all the papers. The letter was addr* aged to 31r. Oliver and signed by him (Mr. Hewitt). The latter letter was a fabrication; he was totally ignorant of its authorship till this morning. In his mail he found the following letter from Pittsburg. Dear Sir—Under guise of a letter from you to Henry W. Oliver, jr.. I publish in the Sunday Globe, tomorrow, and by Associated Press, a burlesque on Oliver's letter to Morrison. It is considei*ed a complete take off on Oliver. You can us© your pleasure about disclosing its autbonship. J. \Y. Breen, Editor Globe. “Do you indorse the letter?" inquired a member. “I have no sufficient knowledge of Mr. Oliver's business," said Mr. Hewitt, “to have enabled me to make a reply. It may be all true or all false. I am not in the habit of prying into other people’s business; but Mr. Oliver has been guilty of the indiscretion of prying into mine.” Continuing. Mr. Hewitt said it was almost incredible to him that any man as familiar with legislation as Mr. Oliver ought to be, could have written the letter which, as appeared, he had done. 3lr. Oliver’s first statement was that the Hewitt bill increased the duty on wire; that was not true. It reduced the duty on wire. Mr. Oliver was misled by a mistake in the copy. The copyist had made a mistake which would have acted as an increase, but for the fact that. there was a provision in schedule C, that no duty should l>e higher than fifty per cent. Secondly. Mr. Oliver said that he (Hewitt) would double the duty on iron rods, of which he is the largest manufacturer in the country. The statement that he was the largest manufacturer was simply untrue. That the bill doubled the duty was also untrue. In as far as he was affected, it reduced the duties on articles which he manufactured. It was also inferentially stated by Mr. Oliver that bo was a maker of barbed fence wire. He bad no relation to that business, therefore the change could not have any effect whatever upon him. In the third place, Mr. Oliver charged that he had practically put upon the free list steel rods, of which he was a large consumer, and not a manufacturer. He w r as a manufacturer of steel rods, and not a large consumer; all he consumed lm made. He did not think any member would believe he would draw up a bill for his personal benefit. Mr. O’Neill, of Pennsylvania, suggested that it would have been more m tho line of courtesy if the gentleman had written an explanatory letter to Mr. Oliver, because he admitted that Mr. Oliver acted on what he saw. The announced the appointment of Messrs. Ellis, Holman, and Ryan as conferees on the Indian appropriation bill. Tho Senate amendments to tho Diugley shipping bill were mm concurred in. Tho House then prweeded to consideration of the Indiana contested election case of English vs. Peel lb. Without reaching a vote the Houso adjourned.

THE INDIANAPOLIS JOURNAL, WEDNESDAY, MAY 21, 1884.

THE NEW OFFICIAL BOARDS The Reorganization Completed at the Joint Meeting Last Night. Mr, Spallr Deponed as Chairman and Mr. Rorison Elected—An Extremely Lively Session. The reorganization of the official boards of the city government was accomplished last night, and the Spahr-Dowling party were divested of tho power which they have held since last January. The Common Council and Board of Aidermen were slow in getting to work, and it was 8:30 o’clock before a quorum had assembled in tho council chamber. The four Democratic members—Messrs. Curry, Doyle, Mack and Sheppard—with whom the compact had been formed, did not make their appeareuce until late, and the Spahr men remained away until after a quorum had gathered, with the hope, evidently, that there would not be a sufficient number of members present to proceed with business. Everything had been fully agreed upon in caucus, and the re-organization was accomplished with less trouble than was expected. Considerable time was occupied in voting upon motions to adjourn, by which proceedings were hindered some, but whenever any disposition to impede action upon the ordinances was manifested a quietus was put upon it by the previous question being called. The only mombers absent were Messrs. Downey and Moran. The vote on the engrossment of the ordinance providing for the re organization of the official boards, which was taken up for consideration immediately after roll-call, stood as follows: Ayes—Councilmen Cowie, Curry, Doyle. Gallahue. Mack, McClelland, Newcomb, Pearson, Reynolds, Sheppard, Bmither, Thalman, and Trusler—l3. Nays—Councilmen Benjamin, Coy, Dowling, Edenharter, Haugh, Rees, Rein ecke, Spahr, Wharton and Wolf —11. Before the third reading of the ordinance for its final passage, Mr. Dowling moved that further consideration of it be postponed until next Monday evening, which was laid on the table by a vote of 13 to 10, the ballot standing the same as upon the engrossment of tho ordinance, which, after the defeat of a motion to adjourn, was finally passed, and sent to the Board of Aldermen. The separate ordinances for the reorganization of the different boards were then taken up, the the first being the one relating to the firo department. THE DISCUSSION OP THE ORDINANCE. In speaking upon the ordinance, Mr. Dowling said that he was glad that the Republicans had come to the conclusion to give the minority a representation on the official boards. The greatest argument that had been urged in lobbying for the passage of the metropolitan police bill by the General Assembly was that the Democratic minority of the city government had been refused any representation. He repeated thai. he was glad that the Republicans had come to the wise conclusion that the miao rity should be represented. In that respect they were giving what he had always favored and what tho Democratic members had claimed as their just right.” “The older a man grows,” Mr. Thalman said, “the more he learns. We knew that we would be able to make hearts glad. We thought the matter over carefully and concluded that this was the right thing to do: but I am surprised that the gentlemen who has so long favored the minority representation should not vote for it.” “All my life,” Mr. Spahr said, “I have favored minority representation. It is the fundamental principle of our government. The time often comes whqn the minority very nearly approaches the number of the majority. That the small hiajority should rule the large minority is something that 1 have never advocated. Therefore, l am in favor of certain parts of the ordinance. At all times, while I have been in this Council. 1 have refused to concede representation on tho boards to the Democratic minority, because the law' denying them that right was established ’by the Earty, and for that reason I believed that I would e betraying my trust as a Republican. I be ; lieved that it should be done only in joint assembly. So far as that matter is concerned. I have no disturbance of conscience. When the devil comes to me in the garb of an angel I shall tramp on his clovon hoofs. Those gentlemen are not acting in good faith; and for this reason I shall oppose this ordinance. When I vote against it I have done my duty. I don’t think that the ordinance is calculated to reach the evil that the gentlemen think it will. I am satisfied to loavo the consequences with the body.” “I can assure the Council,’’ Mr. Thalman said, “that our intention in making this change is for the betterment of the Council, If we can't makv it any better we can’t make it any worse.” The ordinance was passed on the vote of 13 to 10.

more reorganizations. Pending tho consideration of the ordinances providing for tho reorganization of the board of public improvements, the hospital board, and the dispensary board, a call for for a joint convention of the Council and Board of Alderman, was read at tho request of Mr. Spahr, tho president of the joint assembly. The call read: “I am in receipt of a communication signed by a majority of your honorable body and thi* Boar and of Aldermen, asking for a joint convention at the hour of o’clock this p. m. As it is not certain that this honorable body w r ill have concluded its labors before that time, and as I desire that your wishes shall be complied with at the earliest moment, I, therefore, a.‘i chairman of the joint convention, do hereby call said joint convention at the hour of 8 o'clock, Friday evening, May 25, for the purpose of transacting such business as may properly come before it." Following the reading of tho call Mr. Thalman said that Mr. Spabr had failed to do what the majority of the Council and Board of Aldermen had requested of him. . Mr. Spahr said, in reply, that lie did not recognize the right of the Council to call a joint convention, when the joint assembly had adjourned subject to the call of tho chairman. He had a right to call a joint convention at any time ho thought proper. He had fixed the time as early as ho thought practicable and proper, but he did not care whether the Council received that call, laid it on the table or did anything with it. A resolution was introduced calling a meeting of the joint bodies at the hour of 10 o’clock. Mr. Spahr.having failed, as chairman of the joint assembly, to comply with the request of a majority of tho members. “I am at a loss to know.” Mr. Spahr Raid, with some asperity of manner, “where any member gets the amount of gall contained in that resolution. which assumes to dictate to me what I. as chairman of this joint assembly, shall do. When I have taken the step that, ray best judgment dictates to me. 1 have done all that the Second ward can ask me to do. I have met all questions with a conscientious judgment, and no member can impugn my motives, either as a Republican or a member of this body. I was a Republican when many of these council men were boys, and I will be one when many more of them have been laid away. You have lmil your storms and vour tornadoes, but may God help you w hen the cyclone comes.” Thulman —Amen! The resolution w as adopted. Mr. Wolf, at this juncture, asked to be ex cased, and Mr. Thai man remarked that hs the gentleman could do no good by remaining, he should be allowed to go. Mr. Sheppard, here called upon Dr. Edonharter to show tho pledge in which he had said in (he Council meeting the night before that ho tShoppard) was violating in voting for the reorganization. I)r. Eden barter replied that ho had intended to imply by hls remark that Mr. Sheppard had entered into a compact to stand by tho actiou of tho Democrats. Mr. Sheppard

did not sign any pledge, but he hod voted with the Democrats on what they had agreed upon.in caucus. Mr. Pearson thought that hereafter tho mem bers of tho Council should be more careful not to make any personal allusions or insinuations, to which the Mayor gave his approval. Mr. Newcomb felt glad that the Council was turning into a love feast, and he hoped that here after there would be perfect harmony in its pro ceedings. The Council then adjourned, to meet in joint convention with the aldermen. The Joint Session. The Council and Board of Aldermen met in joint session shortly before 10 o'clock, Uati. upon the motion of Alderman Pritchard, in the ab sence of the president of the assembly, Council man Spahr, who disappeared when the Council adjourned, Alderman Rorison was chosen as the temporary presiding officer, and. in taking the chair, Mr. Rorison remarked, witli thanks to the body for nig “election, that it was “a good thing to meet in joint convention occasionally " Geo. T. Brcunig. the city clerk, was chosen i3SUK>rary secretary of the convention. The only members of the Spahr faction who answered’ to the roll call were Councilmen Wharton and Haugh. The following resolution, introduced by Alderman Pritchard, was adopted by a vote of 20 to 2, Wharton and Haugh voting nay: “Resolved. By the joint convention of the Common Council and Board of Aldermen <>t' Indianapolis. That George W. Spahr bo, and is hereby removed aa president ot this joint convention;” Alderman Rorison was elected permanent president of the joint assembly, to fill the va cancv caused by the removal of Mr Spahr. Mr. Thalman then moved that the convention proceed to the election of members of tho official boards, to succeed the officers who had been removed, which was accepted by consent. The boards were then elected, as nominated, as follows: Fire Board —Messrs. Thalman, Trusler and Make. Board of Public Improvements—Reynolds, Cowie and Curry; Hospital Board—Newcomb. Gailahue and T>yle. Dispensary Board—Smithers McClelland and Moran. Following the election of boards the convention adjourned, to meet upon the call of the president. James Stephenson was arrested last night by Superintendent Lane, on a charge of grand larceny. for stealing a largo number of logs, which were sold by him to the Herman Furniture Company, of this city.

FOR 50 CENTS The Weekly Journal. In order to place the Weekly Indiana State Journal in the home of every Republican in the State, and thus do good campaign service for the Republican jiarty, 'we have decided to send tho paper till after the presidential election for 50 cents. This will include the number beginning from the present date, and the one succeeding the November election giving the result of the national campaign. The Weekly Journal is a complete family newspaper. It is specially edited, and much of the matter appearing in it is especially prepared for the wants of the weekly readers. It is a compendium of the news op the world from all quarters; it has full and accurate market reports; its editorials are political, social and general; it has the news ot tho State and of the city-; it has a record of the proceedings of Congress; it will have a complete report of the national conventions at Chicago. Its literary and miscellaneous features are of the best. The Weekly Journal is a newspaper that should ho in every family in Indiana, and at the price named for it there is no reason why it should not be, at least during tho exciting and important campaign upon which the country is about to eutei'. Political committees cannot do better than to see that copies of TnE Weekly Journal are placed in the hands of those persons in their counties who are. not now readers of some sound Republican paper. The tariff question is the one issue which is likely to be most prominently discussed, and to this tho Journal pays especial attention, advocating the maintenance of tho principle of protection to American industry in whatever revision ot the tariff laws may be made necessary in the future developments of business and labor.
