headed by their drum corps, which organisation numbers about 160 young voters, under thirty years of age. The crowd in the evening was the largest that has been in town at any political gathering since the campaign of 1880, there being 2,000 people in and about the hall during the speaking. The Republicans are thoroughly awake here, well organized, and enter the fight with a blaze of enthusiasm that is inspiring. One of the notable events in the local political circles here, is the open letter of Harry Reynolds, published in yesterday’s Leader, giving his reasons why he cannot support Clevelaud. Mr. Reynolds is a lawyer of some local distinction.and two years ago was a candidate on the Democratic ticket for circuit prosecutor. He will stump the county for Blaine and Loim Sixtli Judicial District. Correspondence of the Indianapolis Journal Lawkbncsburo, Aug. 3.—The Republicans of this (Sixth) judicial district met here to-day for the purpose of nominating candidates for judge and prosecuting attorney. There was some difference of opinion as to whether they should nominate a straight-out Republican, and suffer defeat, or nominate the present, judge, N. S. Given, who was defrauded out of the nomination \yy Hie Democrats at their late convention, and run a good chance of electing him; and the latter idea prevailed. Judge Givan, though a Democrat, has made one of the best judges the district has ever had, and has made the office a non-political one in every sense—in truth, he has shown preference to the Republicans. when he has shown any. The -leading advocate of Judge Givan’s candidacy was Mavor George Roberts, of this city, and he was seconded by hundreds of influential Republicans. W. D. Stevenson, of Clay township, was nominated for prosecutor. The county convention was also held yesterday, and a full ticket pnt in the field, the first time in twelve years. T. K. Larrimer, editor of the Press, was made the candidate for the Legislature, and it was the best that could have been made. He hits square out from the shoulder and will #©n-tett**-work with his paper during the campaign. The following is the rest of the ticket: 'For treasurer, George Schafer, of Center; sheriff. Thomas Craig, of Miller; coroner. Dr. Heaton, of Sparta. While this county is Democratic., usually, by 1,000 or 1.200, yet. on account of injudicious nominations on the part of the Democrats the Republicans generally manage to keep one or two of their men in office all the time, and they are so much encouraged this year that, they feel confident they will elect both the judge and sheriff. ~ It was publicly announced yesterday-that Mr. F*. H. Green, formerly mayor of Aurora, ami a Democrat, would support Blaine and Logan, and he would open the campaign in the opera-house at Aurora next Saturday night. Michael McDermott, a young Irishman, of Aurora, and formerly a leading Democrat, of much influence, has declared for Blaine and Logan, and he will bring over many others with him. Henry Miller, a rich farmer uear Aurora, who has heretofore been a Green backer, with strong Democratic proclivities, has also declared for Blaine and Logan, and he is a neighbor of Hon. Richard Gregg, of Greenback fame, and he declares that Mr. Gregg will support the Republican ticket if Butter delays his letter of acceptance much longer. Republican Judicial Convention. Correspondence of the Indianapolis Journal. KXTGHTSTOWN, Ind., Aug. 2.—. The Republican convention of the Eighteenth judicial circuit, met in Bell's Hall, this afternoon, for the purpose of nominating a candidate for prosecuting attorney. The mooting was called to order by T. B. Deem, chairman of the judicial committee. Prof. Wilson, of Hancock county, was made permanent chairman, and T. B. Deem secretary, with the editors or the Republican papers assistant secretaries. R. A. Black offered a series of resolutions concerning the methods of pro cedure to be followed by the convention. On a vote by townships the resolutions were laid upon the table, by a vote or 40 to 38. Mr. 0. T. Nixon, of Hancock, thereupon moved to adjourn. A vote upon this Question resulted in its defeat by 49 to 29. but the chairman declared the convention adjourned, and the delegates from Hancock retired from the hall. The position of chairman was conferred upon J. Lee Furgasou, and a committee was appointed to confer with the disaffected delegates. They eame back in a half hour, accompanied by a committee from the retiring delegates. The latter, being invited to make their grievances known, stated that they had met in one of the parlors of the Shipman House and nominated George W. Duncan for prosecutor, and had then adjourned. Efforts were made to induce them to return to the convention, but without avail, whereupon the convention nominated Mr. Charles R. Ilernley. of New’ Castle, for prosecuting attorney. After appointing a judicial committee to serve for two years, the convention adjourned. The disaffection of Hancock delegates is deeply deplored, and it is hoped the matter may be harmoniously arranged. Deo.atnr County Nominations. Correspondence of the Indianapolis Journal.

.Tndge Garter Disappoints the Democrats. Correspondence es the Indianapolis Journal. NoRL.ESVTLI.S, Aug. 3.—The Democrats hereabouts hare been in high feather over the fact, that Hon. W. W. Garver, a well-known Republican, had agreed to deliver an address to the Democratic meeting called for last night. Judge Garver has been feeling somewhat out of sorts with the Republican party, thinking he has not been treated just right, and the Democrats had been sitting up with him. The Judge went to the old soldiers' reunion at Fortville, andthere he got his Republicanism strengthened and renewed, so that when he returned home yesterday, he speedily made up his mind he could have nothing to do with tho unclean thing called Democracy. He went out to his home about three miles from town, and never came near the Democratic meeting. A number of the Republican hoys made up a serenading party and marched out to the Jedge's home last night, where they held a good old-fashioned love feast. The Democrats had prepared to make a great display over Judge Garver, and had cackled immensely; but it was another clear case of counting chickens before they were hatched. lilaina and Logan Club at Liberty. Correspondence of the Indianapolis Journal. Liberty, Ind., Aug 2.—A Blaine and Logan club of One hundred and fifty members was organised last night at this place. S. D. Byram was elected president and J. T. Morgan and Albert Davis vice-presi-dents, and 0. W. Smith secretary.

INDIANA AND ILLINOIS NEWS Receiver Lynch and the Affairs of the Suspended Richmond Bank. A Probably Fatal Shooting Affray at Centerton— Prize Fight Near Lawrenceburg—Gleanings in the Two States. INDIANA. A New Phase In the Affair* of the Suspended Richmond Bank. Richmond, Aug. 3. —On Saturday it became known that receiver Lynch, of the suspended Richmond National Bank, had demanded, under orders from the Comptroller of the Currency, of several depositors that they return the notes which they had accepted in settlement of their claims against the bank. When Charles F. Cos fin was addressed on the subject he said he had hoped the fact would not become public so soon, as he had negotiations pending to facilitate the settlement of all the bank’s affairs, which he desired to have consummated without giving depositors any further trouble or cause of alarm in the event they could, in a quiet way, get Comptroller Cannon to see how much better it would t>e for him to rescind his order. Continuing, he said they thought the Comptroller wrong in his deduction of the situation, and that they would contest his judgment; that they thought the clause to which he refers is not applicable to the case, and, as their attorneys advised them to the same effect, they proposed to resist his older on that clause. Said Mr. Coffin: “I could take this bank and wind up its affairs : in ninety days, with that order rescinded. Parties who have taken notes for their accounts are al most universally pleased with their settlement. I imagine it will make business for the lawyers when the attempt. i3 made to make them return their notes, for there are between one and two hundred such depositors. Having them settled with, we had made arrangements for the First National Bank to pay off our two hundred and sixty-three small depositors, who have credits under SIOO, and take receiver's certificates, for the payment of which we (the bank officers) Were going to give personal security. This would have left less than two-hundred creditors of a class with whom wc coukl have speedily ad justed matters by other arrangements now in progress. As originally stated, there are plenty of assets with which we could have paid all our depositors that night had it been possible for them to have beou there, and with what remained we could have paid stockholders a nominally large per cent.; but,l cannot. of course, say what per cent, it would have finally netted them, nor no I know what they will realize under the present regime, Under any circumstances, however, depositors will ultimately fare as well as we have promised Mol lar for dollar), if our surplus of assets and more is not swallowed up in expensive litigation resulting from this order from the Comptroller; but should the receiver have to institute suit against a hundred or more depositors, as he is authorized to if they refuse to deliver their notes, the expense will all have to come off of the bank. With as much live business pa per as wo have, we have hoped to make a 50 per cent, divided within three months, which would give the county treasurer aud other de positors of tuods enough for current uses, and save them from any embarrassment; but that would have to depend on collections, and they on the condition of the country, in any event; and I do not know what this new phase will re suit in. Our ambition lias been to say to our customers whom we could not pay, that we were ready to pay them in full; and I have no doubt of our ability to do it, in a comparatively short time, if the Comptroller would allow us to work out our own salvation. Mr. Lynch, the receiver, is competent our relations have been harmonious, and I think he has approved of our plans, but he is disposed to submit everything to the Comptroller, who may or may not consent to what is proposed."

Bair, driving, nodded for the start, and gave the mare her head. She strode off in the smoothest conceivable manner, unattended by any horse to urge her along, and made the entire circuit like a perfect-working machine, without a skip.

President Edwards telegraphed W. H. Vanderbilt: “Allow me to congratulate you. Maud S. still reigns supreme. Her record is 2:09;. on a slow track. Before ordering her home come imd see her trot in 2:07 or 2:08.

TAB LYDIAN MONARCH. Drifting Helplessly Because of Alleged Inermoos Charges Demanded for Assistance. Queenstown, Aug. 3. —The steamer Austral which arrived here to day from New York, reports that she spoke the Monarch lino stcameg Lydian Monarch, Captain Higget, which left London July 19 for New York, on Thursday la3g in latitude 48° north, longitude 3TP in a disabled condition. She refused assistance. Mr. Secord, of Galesburg, 111., a passenger oa the Lydian Monarch, and who boarded tha steamship Austral, says: “After leaving London, the Lydian Monarch experienced soma rather severe weather. Everything went along very well, however, until 6 o’clock on the eveaing of July 25. At that time, when tha saloon passengers were at dinner, a shariL quick explosion was heard, terrifying many passengers and shaking the steamer vialeutiy, as though she had struck a rock. Tha chief engineer rushed to the engine room, the passengers hastily following. There was considerable excitement until it was discovered the damage was confined altogether to the bursting of a cylinder. All efforts te repair the damage failed, as well as an attempt to work the low-pressure engine. Notwithstanding all the available canvas was set, tbe steamer made very little headway, owing to the long prevalence of northwest winds, and for six days tho Lydian Monarch drifted helplessly in the trough of the sea. On Thursday, the 3lst of July, the British steamer lowa, from Liverpool July 23, for Boston. was sighted; signals of distress were displayed, and the lowa came within hailing distance. The captain of the disabled steamer boarded the lowa to arrange for having that steamer tow the Lydian Monarch into port T* the great disappointment of the Lydia* Monarch’s passengers, the captain informed them, when he returned, that the sum demanded by the lowa for performing the service required was fabulous, and the Lydian Monarch was unable even to dream of consenting to such towage rates. At noon, on the same day, tha Austral hove in sight and was spoken. The captain of the Lydian Monarch and Mr. Seacord both boarded that vessel, but again no arrangement for towing the Monarch was effected. Mr. Seacord avers that he is unaware of the reasons why no arrangement was made. He decided to remain on board the Austral. When last seen the Lydian Monarch was drifting south. Mr Seacord expresses a fear that her supply of provisions will not be sufficient to hold out until she meets with another vessel, as she is far out of the regular track of Atlantic vessels. All attempts to disconnect the propellor failed. Mr. Seacord added: “The captain of tho Lydian Monarch appeared averse to my coming on a visit to the Austral, pointing out that tho heavy sea then running was dangerous, hut I replied that I would take the risks. I had doubts about the sincerity of the captain’s desire to bo taken in tow. so I clambered over the side into a life boat, and, notwithstanding a heavy gale was blowing, we reached the Austral in safety." Later.— lt is now learned that the captain of the Lydian Monarch refused the assistance of the Austral because he expected to meet his own company’s boats. After the explosion, the passengers arranged concerts to pass the time. Mr. Seacord’s partner is on board the Lydian Monarch with ten Normandy horses, valued at $20,000. It is feared they will perish for lack of fodder.

Thomas A Hendricks is making an earnest effort to convince people that he was an intimate and dear friend of Abraham Lincoln. We do not know what reconciliation may have oceured during the last year of Lincoln's life, but we have the recorded speeches of Thomas A. Hendricks in 1863 denouncing Lincoln, his Cabinet, and the army in the bitte.estand most personal manner. While we are prepared to believe that, upon the heels of his brutal and dastardly abuse, Hendricks might seek to curry favor with Lincoln when he saw the confederate snap defeated, we do not believe Lincoln was the man to take into his friendship a person who had neither the patriotism to be loyal nor the courage to openly rebel against the country. An Awkward Name. Pittsburg Times. G. Cleveland’s name is awkward to handle; if mentioned without the initial nobody knows that it may not be Cleveland, 0., that is intended, and to refer to him as Cleveland, N. Y-, would smack too much of geography. It's not particularly euphonious, but G. Cleveland it will have to be. He Can Write Just That Way. Minneapolis Tribune. If Mr. Hendricks can write as discursively and as pointlessly as he speaks, he can outdo even a Democratic platform-writer in that direction. “Two Orphans” at the Grand. The engagement of the Arne Walker Dramatic Company, in the “Two Orphans,” opens to-night at the Grand Opera-house. The advance sale of seats has already been good, indicating fine audi ences. The prices have been made popular—lff, 15 and 25 cents —and there will be matinees on Wednesday and Saturday afternoons. The daughter of Rev. J. T. Walker, a clergyman of Norwich, N. Y., was a victim of neuralgic rheumatism. All that loving care and attention could suggest was invoked for her relief until Athlophoros, the conquering specific, was tried witli the most beneticient results. The happy father sends $1 tor an additional bottle, and says: “Please send at once. I have used it for my daughter with great success.
