'. 3 , THE INDIANA STATE SENTINEIa WEDNESDAY MORNING, OGTOUElt 1, J 879.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 1. J . Ir Hayea makes a speech In Indianapolis some one ought to request blm, to say how many Louisiana liars are in office for helping him to steal Tilden' office. , Tub Journal expresses the opinion that Governor Hendricks in his Eaton speech . said more than can bi found in his speech as printed in the Sentinel, and tries to prove it. We think it quite possible that the --governor, with tuoasands of anxious people before him, did make additions to his MS. Other gTeat men have done the same thing - before and after, anJrwUl do it in the future, ' and tho Journal is, therefore, quite welcome to wrestle with the governor's speech as much and as long as it please?. .The more . he better.

Jddos Martin dale said, some days since, that a great "internecine war" in the Republican party in Indiana' would begin, pretty soon, or words to that eftect. Hon. John C. New ornamented the bridge of Bissau's nose, some days since, and as Mr. New is chairman of the Republican central committee, it la possible that the internecine performance has begun. If so, we hope Mr. New will pile in the blows on the Rspublicann nose; grow bolder as he hits from tbs shoulder until every beholder will exclaim, the "internecine" fan has begun. FIXINU THING FO& DINNER. We are told there are three methods of fixing up dinners for "civilized guests, vis: the irrvice a' I'Anylauir, the ervice a la Francaise, aad tbe service a la , The service a' I'Aiujluue is to place all the "flxlns" on the table at the same time; bat this method has ' been found to be too clumsy and dilatory, as too much time is required for carving, and is enly adopted when the guests are few and when the host and the lad j of the bouse can "carve the green goose." The trrrke t fa I'rancaisa Is now the method generally adopted where the "people are civilized." In this service, "me first course is always placed on the table, even before the guests enter the room. The dishes ol the second course are tabled as those of the first course have been, but at the end of tbe second course everything appertaining to the kitchen must disappear, and the third course of sweets, confectionery and ic it ranged In symmetrical order on the table. , The dishes are banded round to tbe guests, and are then replaced on the taole on hot water dishes, bint entcnJu, In cane any lady or gentleman, truck with tne succuleuos of a particular Uit, should, like Oliver Twist, 'ak for more.' " In the service n In Jitittc, dishes are served somewhat diilerent. Nj hot dishes are placed on the table, but are carved in tho kitchen, dished up aud tUeu oouveyed to the dining room to be handed at once to the guests. Large dishes or removes too voluminous to be assed round the table may be carved at a si Jo table and served ou hot plates to the guests. It will be o'usorved that M. Urban Dubois, the German emperor's eh-f, whose remarks we are noticing, (saves tho whole business ot eating a In itviUntion to the I'ngllah, French and Itusilaus, never mentioning the twice a la America a la Yankt(hvUtlm, which Is left out entirely. Tula is sad. If in the wide, wide world there Is a people, kindred, or tribe, who know bow to eat, tbe Yankees are that people. They oat fast, and cat a great deal. They are nut partionUr about the sorvloe, though preferring that everything should be In sight, or s) bandy that their vlotuals may come right along without unnecessary delay. Americans want plenty of elbow room, so that the knife and fork axerclse may not be interfered with. It does not make much difference in the twine n la YanlMiltiodktUim what comes first 11 ih or butchers' moat, poultry or pig, green goose or green corn, turkey or tomatoes only let It come, and keep omlng. American! do not care much for (los-crs at dinner, unless, like cauliflowers, they are cooktd; nosegays are nonesense. Tbey insy Ilka a hot bouse, but do not oare to have one in the dining room, and In this regard tbe rriiisf In Yunkffilmullfdmn is like tbe tcru'u-4 a In Dandii.n and uulllts a la Jluitf, and in so far as clvillzttiou is con earned, Americans are quite as boastful as the Russians or the French. Pork and beans, bog and hominy, "wheat bread and ' chtukeu fix'ns," "corn bread and common doings" ar quite as conspicuous in tbe ad anclug clvt'ixatlon of the age as a pirrr montv-e a inuUl a la marengo or a a In chnmlxirtl, lu Europe, wure table-talk ere ates empires or dethrones kings, it may be. well enough to make the dinner of tnagnlll cent dimensions, but In America eating la more useful than ornamental, nd it will be tome time bsfore the habits ot tbe people, formed on tbe railroad system 4'20 minutes for dinner" will tolerate the ervlce a la FrancaUt, or any other a la which makra a dinner something to be wor shiped, rather than chewed up and devoured in the shortest time practicable. WOE A r a IMPLY AND DEMAND. We are constantly seeing in print esti mates of the foreign dottLand for wheat, which are usd for the ff tose of strength nlng or depressing the wstrket. If prices droop, the ui jet disciuragiug reports from Europe are published, . aud. after cerulu parties have unload wl, an entirely different state of affairs in Europe are reported, and tn this way the "flurry" in wheat is kept dp. A writer in the Grain and Provision Rsview, of recent date, fixes op the European requireuinnts as follows the estimates being aemi-pf&uial, and approximates: Bushels. .l.iS,0J',00J .. ) 000,0 0 10 (Mi.000 ... l.i,0'l0,O.W .. 15.0-O.ioj British Islands....... ....

He adds: "Lusu a, from her mast favorable crop of wheat, exports something over 70,000,000 bushels, ani should the shortage on this year's crop be only 20 per csnt., instead of

23 per cent., as estimated, her surplus for export will be simply nil, bat allowing the damage to be overestimated, and that Russia can furnish say 20,000,000 bushels, the following figures result after making the largest approximate estimate for supplies from the remainder of the wheat producing countries of the glebe than the United States. My estimate is as follows: ' - Bushels.

It the writer In the Grain and Pro vision Review has bsen as unjust toward other States, the sum total of tbe crop which his figures gave must have been far from correct. Home consumption, for fool and seeding. Is placed at six buihals pur capita; this would reqd .- 3J.),0J0,039 b iheU, leav ing for export only 1U,OJO,000, instead of Ki5.000.000 to 170.003,000 bushels. If ths European deflsienoy reaches ' 233,000,000," anl the available supply for ex port in all countries Is only I'M ,000,000, Europe will ba short of wheat to the amount of 02,0)0,000 bushels. Suoh cal culations are well calculated to advance tbe price of wheat and other cereals. But it is pretty generally believed that tbe wheat crop of this and other countries has been underestimated, and that tbe supply will be equal to the domand, and that speculative prices can not be maintained. OURP0LITI0AL CIVILIZATION. There Is a wide difference between politi cal and civil life. The one refers to govern ments, to men in tbeir Nstlonal organiza tions, and the other to tbelr looial and doinestio life. Moral order Is essential to bulb, as an element of power as well as an evidence of civilization. What is termed tbe State refers to the organlo charaoter of the body politic, and that wbioh rules society In its social order is constituted by the animus of the people in their domestic and fraternal life. Oar Government, being Republican in form aud profession, makes personal free dom essential to all our people, as a matter of mlit as well as of National consistency, Hence, the claim to the largest liberty among all classes, and the right to act tftcord log to personal privileges, restrained only by the laws of tbe land. Iu such a Government the temptation to xtravsganoe and licentiousness becomes prominent, as the devouring maelstrom of moral evil, and the danger is always imml nent that excesses or reoklessnesi will fre quently ooctir, aud demoralisation, ot tbe moit irredeemable charaoter, will, sooner or later, work tbe destruction ot society of every class and order, ' la the earlier years of the Itapublio, when the people were generally poor and but very mo lerately educated, there was a slmptlolty In their tuanoors and a sterling Integrity In tbeir constlutloual spirit which honored their patriotism and gave great prestige to tbeir primitive piety. Men in those days wore the habiliments of plain, unsophisticated honesty and modesty, and domestic life with them was generally a constant obligttion of bumble borne prtvllrgss. No ture was the god of. order with them, and sincerity distinguished their coinruou Inter ootirse. Among such a peoplo an unscrupulous rt-gard for honesty, truth and humanity was everywhere looked for, and a corresponding devotion to publlo obligations made law and order of society universally respected. Confidence wss then bad lu publlo men, for the good reason that they were honored end distinguished for the highest integrity. Wasbiogton would not lla, Jefferson would not steal, Madlsso would not play the dem agogue, and the statesmen ot that day- and ago, with but fw exosptlous, were of tbe soundest probity. They were not hungry to grow rich, and they valued a good name above rubles. In common life virtue and humility, rather than ambition and priJe, were com' mon attributes, and the genius of a high moral freedom reigned among . tbem in almost undisoutable authority, and general happiness was realized in every part of the country. That a sad and regretful change has come over the spirit ot our National and social life all will admit who have studied the animus of the times. Men bast changed, and the standard of our political and social status has been lowered to a lamentable extent. Our parties are more or less corrupt because our politicians, in large numbers, are not men ot truth or honesty. Too many of them Mm to carry their selfish aspirations by falshood and deceit. Many gain their points by cliques, organized by themselves in their own Interest, and when they get into cilice and power they care nothing for the people; nothing for their. uatbs of office, and consequently they are not true to the people as public servants. Tbsy spend their money to get office and then steal it (and more too) back again after they get in. ' Men of even the highest pretensions ccme out of their offises miserable defaulters and moral bankrupts ot tue lowest and basest character, and, what is worse than all, their party defends them, and by mild

terms covers up their crimes for fear the party will be Injured. Money buys office, where citizens of competency and wor;b, if they are poor, are left out in the cold. Abilities are not so much wanting as hones y and integrity, for it is often the case that cunning artifice carries its point in cajoling the people, when ster

ling honesty would scorn to use suck means for success. The bummer- often wears the laurels of public favor as if he had earned them, and be struts in bis selfish pride as en honored official, when he is only a thief and a perjured villain. And yet he is not pun ished not ignored but often he is promoted because he is considered a successful man. The pool of politics is called a "dirty one," and well it may be; for the tissue of abuse that is so freely heaped npon every g iod and honorable man in tbe conaicta for office give painful evidence ot a deep and putrid cor ruption, which can not well be measured. It may not seem true or charitable to tell the whole truth In regard to the political demoralization of the country; but we can not help it if we say anything. We follow facts. We are looking into the dark places. We are investigating the public cesspools of political life, to find out the corruption aod vilenessof the age; and to those who will make themselves acquainted with such an investigation, the facts of the times will astound them. Malignant elements com mingle with tbe cblef good, and the poison ous miasma infuses itself into every depart ment of our civil Government, until the entire body is sick with the vileneas of its own corruption. Even our superior school privileges and higher education do not remedy the matter. The higher our advantages, the lower we Be era to eink In dishonesty, untruthfulness od duplicity. The picture is a terrible one to contemplate. l'KltSO.N ALIflEs. Tuk only daughter of Slouowall Jackson Is at sohool tn Halt I more, bhe la lu years old ii enkra.1.
