The Press Association at Chicago warmly endorsed the policy of colored teachers for colored schools. Through an oversight in making up last week, the date and number of the previous week were allowed to stand unchanged. Instead ot August 13, No. 1, it should have been August 20, No 2. We call the attention of our readers to our new Ohio Department on second page. The gentlemen constituting the Cincinnati editorial club are able and competent writers, and our readers both in Indiana and Ohio will find in their articles something to interest them. Our Washington correspondence comes too late for insertion. It consists chiefly of a very interesting interview with Hon. John Mercer Längstem, Minister to Hajti. The interview brings out many phases of Haytien life, and corrects some erroneous theories in regard to the Haytien people.

Y hatcver may be the re sult, it is gratifying to know that our stricken Chief and his anxious family have the undivided sympathy of the whole Xation. His death would be the consummation ot a monstrous crime, which ought to be adequately and terribly avenged.

A quiet trial and execution i : c I . . . -1 law guaraotees; but the enormity 01 G niton's rime culls for something ... . . I more impressive and terrible than is conceded by a strict conformation to leiral rules. We are in favor of the observation ot lawful methods, as a general rule, in the punishment of criminals, but in this case we think a departure from these metnoas is aemanded by the nature of the crime. In short, we think that if President Garfield dies, Guiteau should be taken in hand by the populace and dealt with in a manner commensu rate with tho cold-blooded enormity of the crime of which he is guilty. His punishment should be of such character that its very nature should hereafter deter all disappointed villians from contemplating murder as a means of nolitical revenue. In this r - instance, then, we say that mob law is not enly excusable, but its employ ment is demanded, as well by a sense of justice as by the the cold-blooded wantoness of tho dastardly murder itself. Let the sovereign people be the jurors before whom this murder ous assassin shall be tried. Let them mete out to him a punishment so terriblv lust in its nature that hereafter r i. 1 j äll villains who contemplate Presi- . . . , dential murder, or the murder oi any wnnn frtf nnlitifiil rpasons in a free man tor political reasons, in a iree mppt it with a Tin oi aenance on tuv ---- their lips.

The Friends of the Vice Pres dent Claim the Cabinet Can Not Decide Vfhr n the Inability of the President Exists. New York, Aug. 24. From the Tribune: have been reached, the counsellors of the Vice President have urged that the Cabinet can not take upon itself to decide when the inability of the President exists, and it is known that General Arthur will not heed any call or suggestion of the Cabinet as to acting in the place of the President. It is safe to say also that while Vice President Arthur will not disregard any request of the Cabinet or of Blaine at its head; to come to Washington, he is adverse to doing so while the President lives. Precedents in like cases show there is no absolute need that the Vice President should qualify immediately on the death of the President, and General Arthur believes there is noth ing pressing in national affairs to warrant undue haste on his part in the event or me death of President Oarheld.

MEN OP THE HOUR. 'Swiie arc born great, tome achieve greatnm, and gome hare greatness thrust upon them."Sltakisptare. LEO HARTMANN, mtü NIÜILIST. Of all the secret associations ev r banded against tyranny, that of the Nihilists is the most formidable, daring and widely KDread. At the preient moment it is not only the terror of Rus sia, but a source of no small discomiort to one or two other European Governments that still smack strongly of despotism. In relation to the iron rule of the Muscovite, the Knout and Siberia are beginning to recoil against the House of Romanoff witb terrible eSVct. Already one crowned head has fallen a victim to the Nemises of Nihilism, while that of Alexander III. is simply kept on his shoulders through a system of vigilance and espionage, which has turned all the officials of the Nation, who are not themselves false to the Throne, lato detectives, body guards and spies. That there is something frightfully wrong and oppressive in a syfetem of government that has to resort to such means of support, is obvious at a glance, and it is equally plain that no law, human or divine, counsels obedience to rulers who persistently trample upon the rights of the masses, and by their tyrannous utterances ani conduct snut out from them all hope of peaceful redress. There U no mo e noted name among the Kussian Nihilists than that of Leo Hart mann, whose portrait we herewith present to our readers, and who has been Justly termed "the terror of the Va" Russian Government." The history of this fierce who is now the in full flush of manhood. has been hitherto one of extraordinary vlclssitudi and danger dasnea witn romance so dramatic I and .tartlinz as to create a suspicion ox xagger i ui1,,b "lt? l" """UU"J-ff" I since, ue was iuuai uuirumeu it'uaii"K i" Rims and prospects of Klhtllun. as well as his connection with the great organization itself. If his statement are to be relied upon, he has asiMiown couciusiveiy mai no more Daroarous i - - - - - nor one so thoroughly steeped in cruelty and Uood. As one evidence of this, and in relation to p0and, he says that the late Czar.

Prior to his arrival in this country, uarimann alleges that he had been tracked by Rua-ian emissaries wherever he had bent his steps in Eu rope. These agents of the Czar sought, under the guise of iiiendship and sympathy with the MMlists, to betrav mm into ma iwittftion wnicn would make him appear a criminal in the eyes of ihos among whom ne was sojoarnlDg. on one aocasion they endeavored to entice mm to the sea shore, with the intention of kidnauing him and carrying him on board a Russian vessel tbat lay ready to fail close by.

But on every occasion bis coolness and clear-sighted ess frustrated them, and brougnt mm out triumphant. Some of his escapes were all but miraculous.

The whole course of his conduct, and the lenor of bis observation!, when recently interrogated by the New York prets go to prove this clearly. That 'here are hosts of perwnswho sympathize with him in this country, does not admit f a question, as Indicated by the public meeting held but a few evenings since la New York. He came, as he alleges, to the United State to explain the demfttid of tne MhilWts, and to ask tbe sympathy of our people. These demands appear to us but just and reasonable, and to this extent he may rest assured of the moral support of the Nation. When, however, be mt-kn us to indorse deeds of blood such as have already been penetrated by him, or through his agency, we mnfct pause before we rer ly, although from a Rns-iaii ftandpoint our hesitation miht be lest marked. The reMMtiisibilities of a government and those of private individuals are widely dif ferent, anl must not be couiouuded In any de gree whatever. As already observed, narfmann is in the full flur.h of early manhood, and i obvious? a ersono of gr at endurance- and activity, both mental and physical. His hgure is ai her slight, and be Is below the raidile height: his eves are bneht and resiles, and bis whole demeanor that of a sincere and rr.solme man. Hi leard is short, and his forehead slightly retrea'ing. although well form d. Thai he believe be has work to do, and that he lnteudx to do it may be fairly set down to nip credit; but if the ssauatlou of Alexander. and the oursuit of a course of warfare which in volves the innocent aud the euiltv alike in utter destruction, should deprive him of the right of H8ium among tue nations, als days are moa! likely numbered. Make It Practicable. A very good idea wis suceested some time ago, by a correspondent ot the .New I rk tribune, in regard to work for women. Under the head of 4Mending Shops," the writer said: 'As women seem anxious for something to do, and as all of them can not write essays or novels, an idea comes to me which may be worth no' ing. There are a good many bachelors who are obliged to do their own mending, and great is the vexation when they are compelled to bungle over a ripped glve, or a button, and many other trivial forms of sewing, which thev find difficulty in having done for them. Now were there, throughout rsew York. Brook lyn and other large cities, little shoDS whither they could go in such etraits, is it not possible that a number of thrifty women could build up a little enterprise, and so help themselves and suffering humanity T" 10 which the editor ot tbe Tribune added: "The correspondent might have strength ened his case. Whereas the rioDed clove is a possibility and the missing button a probability, the hole in the stocking is a downright certainty." Thie cry for menders comes up afresh now, when so many house mothers are in the country, and the men of the family are leu to know tne value of tbe hands that can repair. Why can there not be a Bureau 01 Kepairs? Let fifty gentl-men, who would much rather pay to have their mending done for them, than to wrestle with the torn garments themselves, agree each to give a dollar a week to a deft-handed woman who would undertake to repair . and return the garments. With this sum, she could afford to hire a room in which to work, have some.u: ai 1 . . . t tuing mure to lay Dy against me time wnen she can no longer see to mend well. This would be a feasible and ea?y thing to to do. Why should it not be tried? A Neighborly FamUy, Detroit Xews.1 A family from down in Indiana moved into a house on Second avenue last week, and before night had borrowed tea, sugar, eggs, milk and kerosene from as many differ ent neighbors After three or four days the new family ceased to borrow promiscuously, aud -settled down on one particular neighbor. At an early hour in the morning a small boy appeared and said: "Say, we are out ot tacks and want to put down our carpet Ma wants to know if she can borrow a few?" A hunt was made and tbe request granted, but in ten minutes the boy returned, and said: "Say, we've mislaid our tack hammer, and ma wants to borrow yours." lie got it, and this time it was twenty minutes before he returned and said: "Say, ma's pulled all her teeth ont pulling on that carpet. She wants to know if you won't lend her one of your boys?" One of the boys was sent over, but It was an obstinate carpet, and back came the messenger with: "Say, ain't your husband home?" "Yes; what do you want?" "Well, ma's mislaid her husband- somewhere, and she wants to borrow yours to pull one end of th it infernal carpet through two doors and across a hall." The line had to be fixed somewhere, and it was fixed heie. Paasing- Confederate M mer by Mooiillht fStantoo (Va.)
