USING PMJIITIYE METHODS

How the rioaccrs Were Supplied with Jail Through Private Enterprise. !Tlie Amlitious IfTorU to Better the Service me v.wenientC;irt.HoT:seofEarljIaTS and Important IIappniiia Therein. In the interval between tho erection of the jail and tha court-houso, it may not be amiss to note two event of quite as much importance, historically, as the organization of the county, which preceded that luadamental political performance. They Tver the first paper and the first mail the two coming within two days of each other. Haay, if cot most, of the Journal's readers Lave learned at one time or another that the first paptr was called the ''Indianapolis Gazette," that it wa owned and edited by George Smith and his step-son, tho latd Nathaniel Bolton, nnd that tho first publication appeared Jan. 28, 1S22. It was tho precursor ot the Sentinel of to-day, changing its name to 'The Democrat" in 1SS0, and then to The Sentinel" in when pur chased by the Chapmans, of borrowed fame as "cro wers." There is no occasion to trace its history farther just now. It. like ita rival, n year yonncer.' tho "Western Censor and Jtln:i grant's Guide," the precursor of tbo Journal, adopting that name in IKS and retaining it unchanged ever since, was published once a week, as nearly as the absence of mails and tho natural obstructions of the backwoods would permit But, at the beat, failures werenot uncommon, and news from the Atlantic coast and Washington was by no means sapless in a delay of two weeks or a month, .Nevertheless the new settlement was not satisfied with its mail facilities, though taken in Land bv the national government and made as good as frontier mails could be in that day. Until the opening of the yearlJ, and after the organization of the county, tho luture State capital had no mails at all. Such correspondence as Lad been maintained from the spring of U3 to the midwinter of N22 was carried in the Dockets or 'saddle-bags'' of visiting neighbors or occasional travelers. It was safe cnouph, mt it lacked something of being certain, and still more of being speedy. In two years the settlement, with a county organization provided for, and the whole business of a sovereign State of the Union coming to it, "felt its oats," as the back-woods alang had it, and was not disposed to plav "bound boy at a shnckin' " and let good things go by it uncomplainingly. It needed mail facilities, and if tho government "waa too deeply absorbed in the novel sencations and movements of the "era of good leeiing," and the eiiacementof old party lines to attend to the wants , ot the Irontiera, they would attend to themselves. So the Indianapolis nettlement determined to do. OntheSOtL of Januarv, 182U, public meeting ras held at Hawkins's (Eagie) Tavern to plan some way of maintaining a private mail. Aaron Drake was appointed private postmaster and mail carrier. He informed all the government postmasters within his probable range of what had been done, and requested them to eend all the Indianapolis matter they received to Connersville, where ho would make regular trips to get it. He returned from his first trip a little after dark, signalizing big arrival by lond and frequent blasts from a tin horn, which called out into the woods-road old and young, female and. male, to get letters and hear news. The national government seems to have been more effectually moved by the triumphant 'blowing" of the pnvato mail than by the needs and trouble of the settlers, and a week or two later Samuel Henrrson was appointed the first postmaster, ""Teninjj hi otiice the h rat weeic of March. The first advertised list of letters counted five, and. oddly enough, one of them was for David Mallory, a colored gentleman and the first barber of the coming State mo- , tropolis. froths young settlement started with a poittofllco and a newspaper before it had a political or civil organization. Up to that time, or near it, the town, thoneh regularly planned and platted by Alexander Kalston, who had agisted in the survey and platting cf Washington city, was buried in the denss woods and underbrush that covered the natural site. Washington street had tzen partially clearcG of trees, but not of te desp-rooted stumps, and General Morris, v.'jo came here with JJs father in the kuui"nir of 1621. says that TSiu nearest neighbors XTtto concealed from each other by these natural obstruction!!, and residence here rss much like camping in a hunting expedition, ?xc;pt that log cabins took the place of tnts or brush shelter. A ran on Washington street, at tho llollnrd Block, could not &ee a rabiu as 'far away a4 the Bowen k Llcrrill book store on the other side of tho ctrcet. The profusion of timber growths Tzzf be judged by tho fact that Hawkins .-ailt his tavern of logs cut on the lot where 1 ctcod. The town was then feuding away frcia the river, where the earliest settle- . czcata were made, except 1'ogue'a, in cousec;vr.C3cf thunlYcrsal prevalence of the cLilii and fever the preceding summer. It Tcver went back, though the excitement reused by tho Internal improvement system of u halted it for a time about the lino of tho Central canaL Tho act of the Legislature organizing tho county and requiring the completion of the work by the election of the necessary oiliccra cn the 1st of April, ISi), provided for a court-house, to which the present courthouse smiare was given up entirely. It was to bd tiitv feet square , and two stories hi si), and to le erected at a cost riot exceeding ?8,CG& All the courts of the capitalRational, State and conntywero to have the use of it as long as they chose, and the SUto Legislature was to use it for fifty years or till the Stato should provido a Lours for that service. On Thursday. Aug. 15, 1S23 (Comissioners' Jcord. page 45t, the county board ordered Clerk Iiay to advertise tin the Gazette for bids for a court-bouse to be built on plans furnished by John E. Baker nnd James Paztoa. It was to front on Washington ctrcst, to be-of brick, two stories high, fcrty-nve by sixty feet, "and ninety four U: high fioni the ground," meaning the cpire. The foundation was to be of stone, ihreo feet thick, a foot and a half in the ground and three and a half out of tho ground. The court-room on the first floor vta to be forty and a half feet square, and taother, on tho second floor, was to be f orty-cne and a fourth by twenty-fivo feet, r.nd on both tloors were one or more smaller rooms for county offices. On the d of Septtrab?rthe board examined the bids and r.wirdcd the contract to Baker V Puxton for $13,l0a Work was to . be sin by the first of April. 1S23, and the .building to bo completed In three years. OnthoTthof January, 1S23, when nothing remained incomplete except some little painting and work of that kind, the same board that awarded the contract inspected the completed structure and accepted it, til? last official act of its existence. While the court-bouse was in progress the courts, -bv authority of a legislative z.ct, met at the honro of Gen. John Carr, a double log-cabin facing north on the alley from Delaware street to Pennsylvania now r-ptly called "Dogberry Kow" the gable e pd turned to Delaware street, about opposite the entrance to the court-lion vard. The court, after getting in working order, usually adjourned to one or tho other of the four or five taverns, to continue its business. The fifth session met at Carr's Oct. It, Inland adjourned to the new conrthcuta -where it remained as long as tho Loi-odid. Few public buildings in this country, certainly no public building in this State, Hahrd to varied an experience ol the uses to which a convenient large room may be put. The latest history cf the city and county ys that the old court-bouse was practically the only public building in the tyrru fruLi 15-25 to 155, when the firstbtateLj:uc3 uzz ttzdy for occupancy. The Legis 1-ture made o State-house of it for three i-icath every winter. The citizen made a "r.sct" legislature of it occasionally. The federal courts, tho State Supreme Court, the county coort and the County Board rllnrt rl did their work there. After the eonrluo of tho State-house and tho rovCh cl-v?l the State's business to that, V 3cUccnrtoc:3 became the City Hall, i -j ilzzo cf conventions, tho readyresort of r ::y tl :rinT t-3 could not go anywh;ra cl .

Samuel W. Tarker. Caleb B. Smith. Kobert DaleOwru and rore f less renowned politicians spoke there. Lorenzo Dow, the Cranky' wandering preacher, pnached therein 1-7. Colonel Lahnianowski, an othcer of the great Nnjolcon' arrnv, and a Lutheran preacher Ltrt lectured in the court-house on Napoleon's wars. Prof. Bronson gave his first lectures on elocution there. Preachers "outside of auy healthy organization," when they could not get the Old eminnrj. could usually g;t the courthouse. "Nijjrcer minstrels' gave concerts there. Ventriloquist made "shows" of .their talent there. John Kelly played the tiddlo and sang plantation song to it there. William S. Unthauk lectured there on electricity as a motive power, forty years ago. County conventions and city meetings wero held there, A year or two before it was torn down a public meeting of citizens was held there to take measures to get here the location of the agricultural college against the competition of Lafayette and old John Purdue. A Mr. KHIy made mesmeric experiments in the old court-room, and pet half of tho fool of the town to mesmerizing tho other half. It was State-house, courtbouse, church, convention ball, lectureroom, concert hall, show-room, ball-room, town meeting hall, all in one for forty years or more. In noticing the state of the county and townships in their organization it may be as well to note tho start of the county court in its work. Tho first session was held fccpt. in General Carr's bouse, whence an adjournment was made to Crumbaugh's tavern. Judge Wirk presided, with the two associates, Mcllraincand Harding, elected in the preceding April. Calvin Fletcher was the first prosecutor, continuing for thrco terms. Janip M. Hay was clerk, and Hcrvey Bates, slieri!!. Joseph C. Keed. tho first schoolteacher and county recorder, was foreman of the first grand jury, which returned twenty-two indictment. Of these six were Don pros.cd. The other sixteen were all, except one ca?o of assault and battery, for selling liquor without a license. John Wy,ant, was the firtt convicted and punished for this oftense. There were thirteen civil asca on the docket, tho first being Daniel Bowman against Meridv Edwards. Eleven lawyers were in attendance, of whom six were non-resident-. The residents were probably Calvin Fletcher, Harvey Gregg, Bethutl F. Morris, Hi ram Brown and Douglas Maguire, though there were but three resident Jawycrs in the spring of l&iS.
