MEMORIES OP THE PAST.

Meeting of the Old Settlers of Marlon, Hancock, Madison and Hamilton ! Counties.

An Immense Oonoonrsa of People on the ,'.- Groundsat Oakland Yesterday. ,,

Addresses by Dr. Hervey, Judge Test and Judgt Gooding A Foam by Mrs. ... Sarah T. Bolton.

. . : From the Daily Sunday Sentinel. ' The annual meeting of the old settlers of Marion, Hancock, Madison and Hamilton counties was held yesterday at Oakland, lad. About 6,000 persona were in attendance. As soon as the train from Indianap olia had arrived, the Oakland ' Silver band played an inspiring air, after which the meeting was called to order by the president of the association, Dr. J. W. Hervey, of this city, who introduced Rev. David Candle, who has tor the past 44 years been a resident of Hancock county. He delivered a somewhat lengthy exhortation, after which he prayed, and asked that blessings might be showered

down upon the heads of tne old settlers and

the voune settlers.

Dr. J. V Hervey then read the foliowing

address: PBSSTDEHT'S ADDRESS.

Old settlers, In compliance with the demands of custom, I bid you welcome to your

tenth annual greeting. It is well to Keep tne frlendsniD. renew the greeting, and cherish

tne memories of the first settling of the country. Old settlers' meeetlngs are becoming the

most popular holidays among our people.

Ho occasion so rejuvenates the old Instincts and deliehls the young. Holidays are appreciated by the estimates put upon the events they recall, and the blessings they commemorate. Toe feast of the

once each year It was the nation's annual festival. The old, the young, the halt, the blind, were quickened by its Inspiration. It eommemorated their deliverance from

bondage and the commencement of their .journey toward the land of promise, both of which kindled the hearts of the pious to devotion ana swelled the anthem of praise to

their deliverer, and took their thoughts back to their fathers and their long journey in the wilderness. The meetings of the pioneers Of the West are fraught with eventful recollections and

wonderful realizations. The departure of

those who came to this country first from the homes of their childhood, many ol them from homes of plenty, was a daring enterprise and a sacrifice of present ease and enjoyment for prospective good. Instead of turning toward a land flowing with milk, and wine, and

honey, all fitted up for them, they Journeyed

to a wild, new country wnere there was no friend to welcome them, no home to shelter them, no field to furnish them bread. They . voluntarily accepted a life hardship, self-

denial. They raised their strong arms and

smote the iorest, and in the rude cabins

among the brush and fallen trees were the

homes of their wives and children. It was in

the log cabin homes that the first settler

caught the inspiration of that wonderful pro

gress, that quickened the march of events

and made the last half century one of the

most memorable in the history of the world

It is not strange that the memories that

cluster around the homes in the woods, are so

fascinating to the young, so sacred to the old

fathers and mothers. Could some sweet

dreamland messenger come and 1 turn

back the years and bring those dear old ones to their first little wild home beside the spring.

they would shout for Joy around the spacious

neartn-sioe wnere tneir oaDes were born

dedicated to God, .and taught to say, "Our Father who art in Heaven." 1 want a photo

graph of some wild wood home, with autum leaves drifted around, to hang up in my home

to sanctify my reverence for the pioneer fath

ers and mothers of the West.

Death has made your number less since we

met a year ago. When the next roll is called

some of us will be looking down from mans

slons in the say. Soon you will all be where the

wicked eease to trouble, but yonr children

and your children's children will meet here to

reeall yonr early struggles ana sacrifices.

May Hsven bless you all and grant you

many Joyous greetings ere you go hence to re

unite in .Heaven earth's Droken lies lorever.

The president's address was followed by

music from tne nana, wnicn was wen ren

uered.

An address from General Conner was next on the programme, bat the general was

unable to come on account of a press of b inesa. r

- JUDG TXSt's ADDRESS. Judge Test was then introduced, and stated that he was not feeling well, but would endeavor to speak ' a few momenta. He went on to say that in the year 1310 his father settled at Brookville, Franklin county, where there was then only one house, but they thought it would in- time rival Cincinnati. He remembered just before the war with Great Britain they had not only extensive forests to contend with, but Indians. One year before the battle of Tippecanoe there bad been a number of treaties made with the Indians, but Chief Tecumseh declared the Government bad no right to treat with them for any of the lands except as a confederate body. Tecumseh had contrived to combine several tribes, and there was war in the camp. Occasionally a white man and then an Indian was killed. The chief issued a proclamation to the governor, in which be said: "The men at Washington smoke and drink their wine. You and I will baye to fight it out." The old men of the Indian ' tribes opposed the war, bat the young men entered into it with a thirst for glory and white men's scalps. Judge Test said that at that time they had no railroads, no steam

power, no schools and no churches,excepting when they met at a neighbor's house. The

contrast between that time and the present

is incredible. .now we have public high

ways, steamboats, railroad;, and telegraph.

The whistle of a locomotive at that time

would have caused terror among the people, Judge Test said he loved the young people.

He believed in them, for it is they that will

have to take their place. The place they are at now was at that time

an unexplored wilderness peopled with Indians. In the year 1820 he visited this

country as a deputy surveyor. The Gov

eminent bad in lttia appointed a commia

aion to locate the seat of government of the

State of Indiana. Finally four sections of land was surveyed by Judge Teat, at

Fall creek. By the judges testimony it

was not surveyed very well, as they

were hurried very much - by the

commission and the obstacles they had to overcome in the way of insurmountable logs, which caused numerous clogs, which

in after years caused considerable trouble,

as people could never find the corners of their lots. - Ha remembered meeting two

Indian squaws about where tne Court

House now stands. One of them had a bit

die in her band, and the other had a papoose

on her back, which was a hall breed.

After some conversation with them, regard

ing some strayed horses, they were hunting,

the Judge asked the mother if the papoose

was not white. She answered "yes, Billy Couriers' boy." Conners was a man who

had disappeared from the settlement

couple of years before, and was thougbt to

have been killed. While in camp one day

during the surveying, the lodge caught sigh

of a white fawn, which he cbased aud

at last caught, but not knowing what to do

with it, he put it on the ground and tried

to drive it away, bat it - was no go. From that time it followed me like a dog during the rest of my stay in that section of the

country.. Few of the people that came as

pioneers are living, I They came and -by - tremendous . - labor cleared small ' patches of ' ground ' on

which " crops were ' raised, thus

laying the foundation of the present pros

penty and civilization ot this country. We should be thankful to them. A communication from Judge B. C. Gregory, relating numerous incidents ia the life

of his father, 0010081 James Gregory,

read, it was as louows: .

. .. THK STTPFKR. ' f In 1823 Colonel James Gregory, of Shelby

county, was elected Btat senator tor eight counties, In wnat was then known as the "New Purchase;" Marion and Hancock were

two of these counties. -

The constitution oi isib provraea mat jory-

don, in Harrison county, shall be the seat of government of the State of Indiana until the year 1825, and until removed by law

Colonel uregory. witn omer unmnn oi tne

Legislature, originated what was then regarded as rather a bold plan, by which the seat of government was removed to Indianapoplia one year sooner than was anticipated. By law the Legislature then commenoed its sessions in December. By changing this to January it would make the session of 1821-6 commence in 1825 instead of 1824, and thereby

make it constitutional to proviae oy law mat that session should be held at Indianapolis.

The Kaatern. Central ana npper western

members united in passing an act changing the time of holding the sessions of the Legislature to January of each year; and then, there being no constitutional objection, they united in passing the law fixing Indianapolis as the

seat of government, at which the session of

1825 should be held.

This produced great excitement at ijoryaon.

Dennis Pennington, the senator of Harrison, was furious. Members were threatened with

personal violence: and aulte a number or

them were caricatured ; large posters were put

np on toe walls of tne mate iiouse, ana at other public Dlaces in the town. . -. James M. Ray, of Indianapolis, was the enrolling secretary of the Senate, and came In for a share of abuse. -

Boon after theacloarnment of the session or

1823-4 the citizens of Indianapolis tendered to Colonel Gregory a public supper. - ...

in a letter to tne writer oi mis J ames m. xuiy.

under date of July 24, 1876, says of this supper:

"Mr. Blake, Calvin Fletcher, Samuel Henderson, Colonel Pax ton, and I, were active in getting np the testimonial, at Blake and Henderson's Washington Hall, and the right-hand

parlor was rilled lull. letcner, narvey, uregg,

thanks to your father, and his happy and greateful reply were cheered in a high pitch.

tors.) Dr. Coe, Dr. Mitchell, etc., etc It was a

jolly, good time, and a hearty proof of the

filgn estimate ot your laxner-s prominence ana popularity in all our part of the new purchase."

After the reading ot the letter, Judge

Test related some of bis early political experiences when Indiana first issued treasury

notes, which for the time ruined her credit, and when the committee waited on Loring.

of Cincinnati, to procure the $300 worth of

stationery for the use of the Legislature, he would not trust the State on account of the "treasury notes," but he would accept the note of one of the members of the committee for the amount, which was done. They then asked the Legislature to raise $3,000 for the State. The people be

came frightened, and said they would be-.

come the serfs of millionaires, but they sac ceeded in passing the bill, though by a very small majority. Mrs. Sarah T. Bolton was then introduced, and was received with load applause. She read the following poem, written by her for the occasion: Indiana. Though many land Itaila's clime, And call Helvetia's land sublime Tell Gallia's praise in prose and rhyme, And worship old Hispanla ; The winds of Heaven never fanned, Tbo circling sunlight never spanned

JUDGE GOODIBo'S ADDRESS.

Judge Gooding, of Greenfield, made an

impromptu speech, of which the following

is the substance:

Some of the old settlers have passed over the

river, but some have been left behind. This meeting of the people, of all political parties, and of ail classes and communities, and the

women are here, and if they did not come It

would take away a great part

of our pleasure. We meet for congratulations. It la meet and proper

There is a great deal of danger to the present

generation because they think it Is more honorable to live without labor than to work.

We should teach our children

the necessity of labor. The old people work too much, letting the young people shirk. It is by this means they gain the habit of idleness. Where industry is practiced there 1m lit

tle criminality. Impress on every heart that industry la honomble, and the only way to

nerrjetuate the Kenubllo.

We have the educational system of the

f. resent tiay. They used to keep us three years u the spelling book. That is about the only tlilnii that I did learn, and I could beat any

body spelling except a woman, and she boat me. Oraduaips of colleges nowadays are generally called educated nobodys. The judge relate-V a few of his reminiscences, among which was the feat of going

20 miles to see a horse car track which was

one mile in length.. ,.,,.,,, ... DUNES ABB RECHIOH. r,

Dinner' time was announced, and the

hundreds of people on the grounds separated Into small groups on the hillside In the

shade of the trees. After dinner the old settlers of the different counties collected

together in different parts of the grounds relating to each other the memories of their

youth. Many amusing as well as carious stories were told, most of which would Interest the reader were it possible to repeat them. .. , ... .... . -:w.'. ' ! i i ilxctios or officers. . The following officers were elected for the ensuing year: President, Dr. J. W. Hervey, of Indianapolis; vice-presidents, Marlon, Andrew Smith; ' Hancock county, Nelson Bradley; Hamilton county, Dr. J. Booker; Madison county, Dr. Obert Brown; secretary, George W. 8tanley, of Oakland; treasurer. Dr. A. F. Corry. The president with the four vice-presidents were appointed delegates to the State re union of old settlers. Mrs. Elizabeth Goldsberry was elected an honorary delegate. Among the old settlers present were E. Redick. aged 85 years, who came to Indiana In 1823; John Kinney, age 84 years; Jane Harvey, age 84 years, who has been in this State 32 years; Charles McConnell, age 82 years; Judge Colburn, age 86 years. tHe oldest man in Hamilton county; W. M. Horton, of Hancock county, age 92 years, who was the oldest man on the ground-; E. McKey, of Jefferson county, born in 1809, in this 8ate; David Hobs, a resident of Indiana since 1830.

. A Carious Phase of Insanity. London Telegraph, Jnue 21. Paul Boulanger, a Frenchman, aged 19 was brought up on an extradition warrant, before Sir James Ingram, charged with

Stealing; 7,400f. M E. Bourdanchon appeared on behalf of the French Government and the

evidence was interpreted by M. Albert. It appeared from the evidence of Maurice

Moser, detective olhcer, .Scotland 1 ard, that

the prisoner was sent to a bank in Frapce to

cash v.uuOf. in notes. After receiving the

money he left the bank and went to a wine

shop, and there he tore up four l,000f notes received in change. Ha left, and tore up other notes' to the value of ij,000f., putting the fragments in his pocket. Ho then took the boat to Newhaven, where he arrived at an early hour on the morning of June 16. He wandered about the cliffs for sometime and then put the remainder of the money into his stocking and buried it. He then precipitated himself over the cliffs, fulling a distance of 70 feet, cutting a large gash in

his throat. He was removed to the infirmary, where he recovered after a fortnight, and

was then handed over to the police author! ties. He was charged before Sir James In

gram on the extradition warrent, but was remanded for a time, pending the arrival of the necessary papers from France. He was sent to the House of Detention, and on Tuseday lust he tore his shirt up and endeavored to commit suicide by suspending himself from the bars of the cell window. He was, however, cut down by a warder who arrived just as the prisoner had become quite exhaused and was apparently dying. The order for the prisoner's extradition was signed. Love in a Cottage. A woman who writes from experience draws this picture of love in a cottage on a small income: "A few months of ease and

comfort, and thon they begin to realize they are saving verv little, lietrenchment bo-

gins; they move into a smaller house; perhaps sickness conn; the little money luia by goes for drugs, and other comforts have to

be sacrificed to pay the doctors bill; little

helpless lives come calling for attention. The

young motnerwho could easily attend to her

domestic affairs before, now finds all her

time taken up with baby. Duties that came

easy then, are irksome now, but they imut be gone through with, though the head aches una the limbs are weary, for a servant can

not be atlorded. lhe husband, too, may have had his dreams of making life pleasant for the woman of bis choice, and to find hiin

straining every nerve to make both ends meet; and, though his manhood cries out

against the eternal grind a drudgery he has to witness, he is powerless to avert it. So they slave and slave, tasting little of life's

comfort. Do you think I am overdrawing the picture? I would I were, for the sake of some I know, and thousands I do not. Lives

of sacrifice are not easy ones to live, and

though we may in all good faith think we

could live them, and not be unhappy, few of

us are the heroines we thiuk we are, when

the tost is applied. Living on "bread and

cheese and kisses reads well in romance

but the reality is not pleasant. For life even at its best, has its cares, and husband and

wife often encounter troubles that require all

the love and respect they have for one an

other to surmount them. -

A Care for Neuralgia. 1 ffininTtllA lledlcitl Newi.1 '

Several evening since I was attacked with

a severe dental neuralgia. After resorting

to friction, cold and hot applications, etc,

without obtttininir any relief, I lay upon my

bed, trusting that sleep might come and give me respite. Still the excruciuting pain con

tinued, and while 1 was sunering tne "tor-. tures of the doubly damned," undecided whether to arouse some tired druggist for a ' bottlo of chloroform r chop my head off

(with a decided preference, however, for the chloroform), I suddenly bethought me of

what 1 had read of an anaesthetic which we always carry with us. Thereupon I began to inflate my likigs to their utmost capacity, and thon forcibly blow out all the air I could.

Immediately the pain began to lessen, and after a few rejictitMns of the process it had entirely ceased, being displayea by a delightful tickling sensation in the gums, and furthermore I know not, for in less time than it takes to tell it I was sound asleep, awakening next morning delightfully refreshed, and without a symptom of ni y ailment left. Honoe, you see, I was not simply temporarily relieved, but entirely well again. I wish other sufferers would try this and report results. .

I From the Daily Sunday Sentinel. ' About 75 Republican trades-union men assembled in Bricklayers' Hall last night to take action in regard to the recent lock-out of the Journal. v Mr. Enos B. Reed; of the People, was elected president, Ed Guthrie vice president and L. W. McDaniel secretary of the meeting, i

Ed H. Klmberly made a short speech, in which he stated that the object In calling the meeting was to obtain from the Republican workingraen of this city an expression of their sentiments regarding the action of the Journal in discharging all Union men from its employ, and whether or not the Republican party indorsed this movement. A committee en resolutions was appointed, consisting of Messrs. W. W. Davy, E. H Kimberly, O. A. Redmon, Eli Stickler and Thomas Stevens. While waiting for the committee to prepare the resolutions, speeches were made by Messrs. Charles Riley, Councilman Shilling, Ed A. Guthrie, E. H. Kimberly and others. The general tenor of the remarks proved conclusively that the Republican workingmen are thoroughly disgusted with Judge Martindale and his mode of procedure toward the union printers. The sentiment prevailing pointed to a general feeling of distrust in the late actions of leading Republicans. THK EX8OLCTI0N8. The following resolutions were unani mously adopted: Whereas, Mr. E. B. Martindale, proprietor of the Indianapolis Journal, the recognized organ of the Republican party of Indiana, by a recent ty ran leal and unjust act, demanded tnat the printers employed by him on said Journal should assent, by their signatures, to

. Maternal Affection. Yankton (Dk.) PraM.J J. S. Grabel, of th;. city, has a female canine who is mother of 12 pups. These pups were in his barn last night during the heavy rain. Shortly after 1 o'clock Mr. Grable ' was aroused from his sleep by a scratching at the back door. Upon getting up he found the old dog with a pup in her mouth trying to get in. After taking them in he went to the stable and found about six inches of rain water over the pups' nest and ope of the pups drowned. The others had been deposited by the mother upon dry places one had been laid upon a box, two

upon a keg and still another upon a pile of

bricks that wa9 above the water. Had they not been thus disposed all would have been drowned, being too young and helpless to save themselves. This is another illustration of something more than mere brute instinct. The Old Khedive's Vengeance. North American Beriew. . In 1833 the colonel of one of Mohammed

Alis regiments in Mecca had rendered himself odius to the soldiers, and while on parade, firing with blank cartridges, the officer was shot. So notice was taken of it at the time, and it was thought that the thing was for

gotten. Two years afterward, in the regular course of exchanges, the battalion returned to Cairo, marched into the citadel, and piled arms. A court-martial was immediately

railed, and the battalion found guilty of murder. As the individual could not be discovered, the battalion was decimated, and 134 were marched outside the gatein separate squads, and shot by their own comrades. My informant happened to be riding outside

the walls, and, attracted by the roll of musketry, saw the execution of the luckless soldiers, some sitting, some standing and some on their knees, according to the humor of the officers.

Low Physlral Sensibility. Contemporary Kevlew.) In the curious histories of malingering

which we receive from the medical officers of our prisons and public services, many instances of self-inflicted injuries occur which

might doubtless be traced to the existence ot a low standard of physical sensibility. A

remarkable instance came under my own observation, many years ago, in quite a young child, which makes it all the more striking, as infancy is very intollerent of

pain. A little pauper girl presented nerscii one mornin in the surgery of a country doctor and lisped out a request to have a

decayed tooth extracted. Alio loom, wnicn, for a child, was large and firmly fixed, was taken out without the smallest expression of suffering on the part of the child, and a

penny was given her Ior being so orave. The next morning tfcf little thing reappeared and asked to have 'another tooth out, this time pointing to a perfectly sound one, and

it seems probable that she would nave consented to the forcible extraction of the whole set at a penny per tooth. Dr. Johnson.

unpowdered wig, which was too small lor his head; his shirt, neck, and knees of his breeches were loose; his black worsted stock

ings ill drawn up, and he had a pair of un

buckled shoes by way of slippers. But all these slovenly particularities were forgotten the moment that he began to talk. . Some

gentlemen . whom I do not recollect were sitting with him, and when they went away I also rose, but he said, "Say, don't go"

"Sir," said I, "I am afraid that I intrude upon you. It is benevolent to allow me to sit and hear you." He seemed pleased with this compliment, which -I sincerely paid him and answered, "Sir, I am obliged to any man who visits me."
