Thomas A. Hendricks, of Indiana. A Weitern Statesman Who for Many Tears I Um Veen at the Head of III Party In II U Own State and Who 1 Kecog. . jjized an One of the National .Leaden of Democracy Public and Private Life. Philadelphia Times. Thomas Andrews Hendrlcfcs, ex-gorefnör Ol Indiana, was born in Muekingnm county, Ohio, near the city of Ziuesviile, September 7, 1319. His father, the late Major John Hendricks, with hie family lelt Ohio the spring after Thomas was born, and settled et Madison, Indiana. At that time Madison was the chief city in the State and the homa of many men who become prominent in her history, amoDg tbem "William Hendricks, an uncle of toe subject of this sketch. Major Heodricks remained at Madison until 1S--, when he removed to Shelby county, then very sparsely settled, and opened up a farm. It was located near the center of the county, and afterward Shelbyville, the shire town of Shelby county, was partly laid out upon it. Here he built a house and established a home, and in it placed hia household Roods. The house still stands, but it has passed into other hands. It was known throughout the State as the stopping place of the men of God as they journeyed through the wilderness establishing churches and ministering to the spiritual wants of the pionesrs. Although its master was a Presbyterian of the strictest sect, its doors opened as readily to the disciples of Wesley aod of Williams as of Calvin. It was in such a home and amid such surroundicgi that Thomas A. Hendricks grew to mai'hood. It ia no wonder that the influence hss net forsaken him, (or it was thrown about him at a time when Ufa impressions are made. It is, most probably, owing to these early surroundings and in'laences ihat his privat and public career have been so pure. He ia addicted to none of the vices, either great or small, that so often beset the public man, and his walk through li'e has been unusually circumspect even for one so reared. rRACTICIX'i LAW. Hr. Hendneka completed his education at Hanover Collen-, one of the pioneer educational Institutions of the West. After leaving college he studied law, and in due time was admitted to the bar. From that time until the present he has been in the active practice of hia profetsion, excepting only the time he was commissioner of the general landefüce and the four years ha was governor o! Indiana. In 1845 Mr. Ilendricka married Miss E.iza C. Morgan, who is still living. She is a woman ot good sense and discretion, and has been of great s?rvica in furthering the political interests ot her husband. She is his companion and counselor, and it is his invariable custom to enter upon no important utdartaking without first consulting her. b'he is not without ambition. and this fact no doubt had much intluence upon the career of her distinguished husband. She is generally present at his conferences with his political friends, and often participates in them. She accompanies him in hia travels, beiDg his companion abroad as well as at hom?. and she is to him what God designed the wife should ba to the husband his constant companion and friend. They have no children living, the only one born to them a boy having died many years go, and as tnry g- through life together, Laad in hand, they present one of the most beautiful examples of cot (Hence and domestic felicity any where to beaten. A YAlilKD ri'tLIC LIFE. Mr. Hendricks' public life has been long and varied. In 1814 he was elected to the State Legislature from his countj. In 18.VJ he was chosen a delegate to the convention which made the preaeut constitution of the State, and was an active participator in the proceedings of that body. In 1S51 he wes elected to Congress. bBd in 1852 was re elected to the same offic 9. In 1-T;5 he wa-i appointed commissioner of the general land office, and held the position nntil he resigned it in 1S"!. In 18G3 be was elected a senator of the United S fates and served a full term of tix years. In 1S72 he was elected governor of Indiana, arid served s such until January, 1877, when he was succeeded by Governor Williams, since which time he has been a private citizen. To show the estimation in which Mr. Hendricks is held by the people of Indiana, and his great personal popularity, we deem it proper to speak brif ily of his three races for goverernor. Id 180J he ran asrainst Henry S. Lce and was debated bj 9 757 vote. The same year Mr. Lincoln's roj nty in Indiana, over Judge Douglas, wss 23.621 In 1SGS Conrad Baker, now one of his law partners, defeated him by l.lfil vote. The tame year General Grant's majority. oyer Governor Seymour in Indiana, was !) 57D In 1872 his majority over Ginfral Tuomas M Brownp, was 1,114. The same year Gen--ral Grant's majority in the State over Mr. Grteley was 22 Ü21 Governor Hendricks was the only man electtd on his ticket tfcat jear, excepting Professor Hopkins, who wts chosen to a non-political office. In 187C he wa3 cn tbe ticket with Mr. Tilden, and earned tbe S'ae by a majority of 5 555 votes. Thus it will be aen that in ail the races he has made for otlice in Indiana he has largely led bis ticket. His first - content for governor resulted In his defeat by 9 757 voUs. and his last in his e'ection by a majority of 1,148; and it was unquestionably owing to hia name on the ticket with Mr. Tilden that Indiana was carried for the Democracy in 1S7G. LIFE A8 A LAWYER. In Mr. Hendricks' profession the law all acknowledge him to be great This is tbe vocation to which nature particularly adapted hira, and it Is his favorite one. He has, since erat entering public life, returned to the practice of his profession with facility and zeal immediately upon the termination or intermiation of official engagements. He studied the law at Chambertburg, Pa , in the cfSce of his ancle. Judge Thorasoo, an eminent jurist ot that State. He thoroughly mistered its elementary principles, and the tninntiu of its practic. With this foundation, and with a natural legal mind, he Is never at a los, and is always strong in any cause without epecial book preparation. Before court or jary he is equally at home. In a trial he is never off his guard, nor discorciTted by any unlooked for turn in tbe fortune of a case. He encounters any auch crisis with aa much promptness, fortitude and addresi as if it had been anticipated and prepared for. Upon one noted occasion, when Mr. Hendricks was making the closing argument to tbe jury on his tide of tbe case, tbe presiding judgs interrupted him to ask his views npon a legal question, which, if ruled against him, would be decisive, Intimating that he wn against him on the point. It was a question which, until that moment, bad rot been raised nor aapg-sted; therefore. Mr. Hendricks had not anticipated it, nor made tbe least preparation to meet? it. He was ia the position of one maintaining a desperate struggle with an enemy ia front who is suddenly and unexpectedly awaulied by a more formidable enmy behind. It was an emergency calling for great presence of mind, but he was equl to it. Ha turned at once from the jury to the court and addressed himself to the unexpected leral question. Upon the instant tbe plan cf a leeal argument was constructed fn his m'.nd, and he presented It to the court with all tbe impassioned earnestnest with which but moment before he

had been auguring the facU Co we , was a burst of legal argument, V ? of legal logic Ladiei-tBece-ktt. T case had attracted many of then.' to ttie court room thought it bettfttful; sem.le" men spectators thought it a jrrsnd dij ls7 cf forensic eloquence, end lawyers preset., thought it a powerful effort of mere legal argument. The sceae in all its circumstances was peculiarly exciting and dramatic. His argument did not convince the court, arul tbe charge was point-blank against, him; but, strange to siy, his argument upon the legal question had convinced the jury, and ics verdict was given in accordance with that conviction and against the charge of the court. HOW HE HANDLES A CASE. Mr. Hendricka ia remarkable for the readiness with which be gathers up an3 gets w.iil In hand the questions, both of law and of fact. In any case in which he is engaged. In this rea-linef.8 no advocate in the country excels him, and very few equal him. Other lawyers may be found who surpass him in special branches of practice, but it would cot be easy to find any averaging bo high In all its branches. He has no specialty as an advocate, being alike efficient in the civil and the criminal court, and in all kinds and forms of . actions. Other lawyers may be found who possess in a higher degree some of the intellectual qualities that go to make up a great advocate; but few. If any, cau be found who possess so many of thoee qualities in so high an average degree. Mr. Hendricks belongs to a family noted In the history of Indiana. His uncle, William Hendricks, was secretary of the convention that formed the first constitution cf

the State, was Indiana's first representative in Congress, her second governor, and for two full terms represented her in the Senats ot the United States. John Abram Hendricks, a cousin, Ml at the bettle or Pea KiJge while leading his regiment against the enemy; and Thomas Hendrlck9, another cousin, was killed In tbe Teche country while serving in the Union army. loa family bo distinguished he is the most difticguished, and in ono noted for its ability he is the ablest. Mr. Hendricks father was an elder in the Presbyterian churcb, and the son was ba ptizad in that church and brought up under its inilaence. He never jiined any church until about 15 years ago, when he became a member of the Prot-stant Episcopal churcb. acd is now one cf tbe wardens of S'- Paul's cathedral. Although his religious home is not in the church of his fathers, be is a believer in the fundamental doctrines of that church, being a Cilviniat without guile. AS A PCBLIC MAX. Mr. Hendricks has been a prominent man for many year, and, like all public men, has been criticised and found fault with, but no on ever called in qu? süon his private or official Integrity. In tois respect he is absolutely uaapsaiiable. As a public speaker Mr. Hendricks is persuasive and lonical. His public addresss are usually ca'efully prepared. Although an exemporaneous I speaker of rare power and force, he seldom or never appears upon the platform to da liver his tint speech In a political canipaien without having his manuscript in hand. He reads In a clear voice, of great strength and power. It is his habit when delivering a eet speech to inject irto it many extemporaneous sentences, without in any wis9 destroying lis symmetry or marring its beauty ; therefore it is apparent that his printed spef ches do not convey a correct idea of his real ability, for many of the bet things he sajs are spoken oil hand The writer reuiem bers an example of this which he c?enis worthy oT mention hera. A GUBERNATORIAL CAMPAIGN. In the sumniT of 1S72 Mr. Hendricks was nominated tjy tti9 Diuiucracy f jr governor o Indians, and ms.ie an elaborate speech on accepting the nomination. The weather was intensely hot, and the windows of tbe building in which he spoke were lowered for tbe purpose of ventilation. Party epirii ran j high at the time, end Koma of his political enemies orcaniz-d a p!ia to interrupt and annoy him. A c jtip'.e of drums and a üia wero brought nto requisition and m&Jo to do duty in tbe dirty work. Negro musicians were employed to msnipulet tbr s j instruments, and as this band, followed by a lot of rowdiea, yelling für Morton, marched and countermarched fait th? houe, the speaker's voice was conip'eteiy drowned. This greatly incamed Irs fiiends, uud one of them arose to his feat and proposed to rally a force and "clean out the nigger." The proportion took like wildQre, and as the excited nun were leavms to carry the project into execution, Mr. Hendricks ran to the iroct of the plaltorm aa though he would jump to the parquet below, and when he. reached its verge, exclaimed in his loudest tone: ' Let them alone. The toon shrieks loudest when it hears the storm coming. The rowdy loons upon the etrtet hecr the tbundnr of an cut reg d people and ate the lightning ot tbe coining etorni. Ln them thriek." His words went to tbe cerve-cen ters like electricity from a batery. They ticgh d in tbe ears and made tbe blood run fast. At the moment Boras one shouted: "Hurrah for Hendricks," and "Hurrah for Utndricks" abook the building from foundation to roof. The sceae was one of the best illustrations of the power of words to sway the hnman mied ever witnessed in the country. Tn writer hae heard many thirg that stirred the heart and made the blool gallop, but nothing that approximated inelleot these words of Governor Hendricks. A MAN OF CONVICTIONS. Mr Hendricka is a man of convictions. He conies to his conclusions like all men of kpical minds, ana when they are reached he is not apt to change them. He is not aggressive, hia mi ad being cast in a conservative mo d, but he has toe courage to go into new domains when conviction and duty t ike him there. He has been called timid, and ben changed wiib keepiDg himself so "poised on the f ;nce" as ta be able to vault on either tide with equal facility; but the change is falsa. No one who bad the right to know his views upon a public question ever asked for tbem in vain. He is not the man to proclaim his opinions from the housetop nor upon tue ttreet corner, but at the proper time and in the proper place he never hesitate j to give them. H has been so persistently misrepresented upon this subject that many perrons, even cf his political faith, believe the charge to be true. He has long been a leader of his party, not only in his State but in others, and no m ;n can be a party leader without the courage to eepouse a cause and tbe courage to maintain it. Senates McDonald and Voorhees, both able and aspirirg men, never dispute his leadership, but follow him without question. Since the ec?ptdrcf Democratic leadership In Indiana departed from Jesso 0. Bright and was placed in the hand cf Thomas A. Hendricks, no ore has attempted to wrest it from him. This would not be so were he the timid and vacillating man an unfriendly press would have the people believe. HABITS ANO API'EABASCE. When Mr Hendricka was governor 'of Indiana, he lived in good, though not extravagantstvl?, and daring the cessions of the Legislature gave frequent public nceptions. Sinca bis retirement from office he has given up housekeeping, and, with his wife, boards at tbe Pates House, in Indianapolis. His rooms are pleasant, and at all proper times are open to his friends. He is easy of accets, nooneever beicgdeniedadmision to hia parlors who has any claim 1 3 hia courtesy, acd no one visits him or hia wife without being made to feel at borne. Mr. Hendrlcfcs ia five feet rioe inches high, and weighs 185 pounds. Ilia body is compact and strong His head is large and ia moderately covered with aandy hair, freely intermingled with gray. Hia eye are gray, hia nose large aod prominent, and his mouth and chin are shapely and very expressive. His complexion is fair and inclined to freckle. He wears no bard, except a small quantity near the ear. The contour of hia face and form denotes strength and solidity, and no judge

cf physiognomy will ever mistake him for an ordinary man. He may be eaid to be in the youth of old age, for, whereas his step ia as firm and his voice aa resonant aa that of a man of ZO, he ia past the meridian of -ife. Good habits and a strong Constitution are his, and these combined to mix youth and old age that it is impossible, to tell where one gjs and the other begins. SccC Thoraas A Hendricks, of Indiana", one of tW Cremest men in the country. ErHT)ü''CEXCE AICO ANECDOTE. The following lJer, written by a gentleman who has known. Governor Hendricks from childhood and who now lives at the governor's old home, will be read with interest: ShilbyvILLE, .November 18. Thomas A. Hendricks was brought to Shelby county by bis parents In the spring of IHZ2, being then a child two years old. When he rencüed the proper age he went to school In the winter and in tbe summer worked on his father's farm. He first attended school In a little school house which stood on the lot where the seminary now is, his teacher being a Mrs. Kent. - When his father built on the hill east of town, Thomas drove th oxen which h an led the material. Jerry Weakly says that Thomas was In the habit of argulnx Imaginary law cases as he walked to and from school. After he Jett Hanover College be went to a law school in Pennsylvania and when he was through with hin Kindles came home and commenced to practice Jaw. I think he was too young when his father quit the tanning business to have done much work In the tanyard. Another gentleman, who knew Governor Hendricks in early life, tells the following anecdote of his first case in court: Major Powell and Major Hendricks were neighbors, and leading men of their day. Nathan, a son of the former, and Tunniax, a sou of tbe latter, grew up together, finished their education abont the same time, ar.d opened their law offlces within a few days of ach other. Hoon alter hanging out their shingles u petty case was to be tried befpre Oquire Lee, and the younsc attorneys volnntmed to appear la it one on either side. AVneu the trl:il came oil the 'squire a ofllee was tilled with the filemls ot the young barristers, anxious to hear their maiden speeches. A lot of apples were procured aud held ready to be given to him who won the case. Ilondrlcks won it and received the apples, which he generously divided among hid friends. W. W. Woollen.

CEREBRAL DISEASES. Dr. Win. A. Hammond on the Alarming Grow th of General Paralyaia. Pao'ea&or William A. Hammond delivered an interesting address before the Medico Legal Society upon "General Paralysis of the Insane," in New York on Wednesday, in whicn he described the symptoms of general paralysis aa follows: Paralytic insanity is the better came, and its symptoms can be described so that the Hircaso can be recognized when it is seen. Pnyiical symptoms first manifest themselves, the mental symptoms following lattron. The former are not always welldenned. Usually there is a tremulous motion about the lips as if the person was about to burst into toars. Tremorof the upper lip is indicative cf the presence of paralysis of the muscles, which extends to all the muscles of the body. Impediment of speech follows the trouble being more with tho michaniom of speech than with tb.9 idea oft pee ch. Presently the mental tymptorus come OQ. The pf.tient rices things showing sleek of the decencies ot every dsy life. Frtquently tbe mania takts the form of inordiuate money spending. Oace one of my patients went down town and bought cevetal hundred shove's; another bought all the dogs ha could nod; still another undertook tie tisk of buying pretty nearly ail tho jawelry of a large establishment, end only stopped wkien the proprietors, becoming aldrmed, re faced to sell fcim any more. This man took the jewelry he purchased henn, and bedecking his wi.'e until she glittered with gems from head to foot compelled hsr to walk up and down before him. Then he drew a check for $3,000 and gave it to his wife. When I wai sant fr the atient told me that he was going to Europe. He intended to make tho voyage over in the Grjat Eastern and would charter the Scotia as a tender. He would psy ma $l,00O,UU0 a rronth and he would have a tand ou the vessel, the members of which should ba attired in a uniforai of blue velvet with diamond buttons. Toe speaker then described other types of delusion ia the early ttaes of ttte diseaaea, and added: A patient once told me he had purchased all the carpet factories in the world, another owr el all the trout f-t reams in the country, and yet another wan the moBt lovely niai in the wcrld. All tbe women were in lovo with him, and were s'ruck with aimtration as he walked along the etreets. A man who thought himssii very light explained the egotism by claiming that he was filled with angels and would soon ascend into spaca. After tbe symptoms which I have described tremor of the lips and d thculty of speech tnere is an exaggerated movement tbout the faca as if the whele mind was In the act of articulation; one of the pupils becomes larger than the other, a Bure eign of general para lysis; there is aLo a drooping of the upper evelid. the eyeball turns and the patient sometimes sees double. Defect lve sensibility comis on. such as numbness of the hands and feet, and lack of eenbibihty, in ftct, in all the muscles cf the body. Saclilicg of tbe feet is noticeable, and paraly els of tho loft'er limbs often follows. In eome cases the symptoms disappear for a time, and to the general obierver the person Is a well man or woman, mis remission 8ome(imes Issts lor a fesv months. I have had two cases where It Jested eleven months. Jut tba disease relumed with increased v!o lti.es. Then the patient has convulsions, and enforces the truth of his delusions by physical violence. Kleptomania is one cf its forms. An inatance of this morbid im pulse is shown in the case of a young man who use to knee it down women and take off their slippers. His bureau drawer was found fall of slippers. A Southern Suspicion. New Orleans Times. It is jut possible that the Hancock movement is a "play" of that astute politician, Mr. laden, though its origin be not recoe nizjd by many of the gentlemen engaged in it it may bj that Mr. Tilden sees in Bayard a competitor who has the affection, retyped and confidence of the Southern peo pie. To divide and fritter away a sentiment so formidable 11 r cock's name may be used with peculiar eilVct. And it need not be very surprising if it shall tarn oat at last to have bf en so us -d. If Mr. Tilden be the "dark horse" of those who are laboring with the "Haccjck boom," then their labors are intrlliglble; but if they really think Mr. Tilden has a better prospect cf lukewarm support and ultimate defeat than almost any other prominent Democrat, they can not too soon drop an impopsiblr candidate, Hancock, and go over to one who is not only possible, but the most formidable of all the possible antagonists of the Republican nominee. She Wanted to Escape the Crowd. Observe r.l An old woman who bad resided all her lifetime in a rural district in Aberdeenshire, was lying on her death bed, when, as usual under the circumstances, the parish minister paid her a visit. After some preliminary observations he asked her if there was anything tbat abe wished her relatives to attend to after her decease, and received the following reply: "Weel, air, there's juat ae thing; I would like to be berriet P tbe kirk yard o' L , but I wudna like to be pitten verra far frae the yird, nor yet verra far doon amo' the yird." Oa being pressed to give a reason for this strange request, she answered: "Weel, ye sse, I'm grown verra frail, noo an' at the lat day I would like to be up amo the first o them, and be onto' the thrang." There are 8,000.000 single men in this country, and there ia no telling how many married men wkb they ware ot the number.

SWIFT RETRIBUTION.

A Keuiarkable Tragedy In Illinois Desperate Struggle Between a Farmer and m Robber on a Railroad Track, (St. Looi republican. One of the most remarkable1 tragedies of the year occurred on Wedntf day evening ia?, on tne iijiaoia side of the river, the fn 1 facti relating to which were gleaned by a Republican reporter yesterday. John Fullerton is -a farmer, a kind-hearted man, living near Swan wich, on tbe Cairo Short Line Railroad, southeast of East St. Luis. Last Wednesday, at a late boor in the after noon, a tramp eanutered lazily up to the Fulierton farm home and told the old story of destitution, want and scarcity of work. Hesaidthatbe was tired and hungry, and the farmer, believing his story, invited him into the house. Tbe good farmer's wife waa away, and so he, with his own hands, sat out a meal for the beggar. The latter partook of the edibles, and at the end teemed grateful for them, and thanked the farmeraa he finished his meal, and started npon his journey again. bo soon as ne had turned his back on the premises the farmer locked his houss and started out into the fields to work. The tramp only went a little distance from the house, and then hid in tbe bush aud waited to see what move farmer Fallerton would make. He was evidently a longheaded tramp, and bad made up his mind that Fullerton'a family were away, that Fulierton, too, would soon leave tbe house, and that then and there a cood chance would present itself to enter and rob tbe premiees. The f jrmer. as already stated, went out to work in the field, but only a little distance from tbe hou e. Then it was that the tramp returned to the place which had sheltered and fed him but a moment before, that he broke open a window, entered the premises, riggoa himself out with a new suit of clothing, and took possesion of a silver watch and $'. in money. Then he went to tbe window through which he had entered, jumped out, and resumed his journey at a quick pace. it was about this time that ruilerton looked up from his rrork and saw tbe tramp jump out cf the window and hurry away toward tbe railroad track. He lost no time in following tbe thief, aud after a sharp pursuit caught up with him at the track. The tramp was a well-built man, and was evidently a desperate one, for instead of running away he stood and faced the farmer. Tbe latter rushed right at him without a word of explanation, and a desperate bandto hand encounter ensued. Hard work and regular living gave the farmer the advantage of his villainous opponent, and soon the lat ter was the under man in wbat eeeme.l a struggle for life. lut the tramp, knowing that it meant almost death to let go of r ullertoa's shoulders, held on with a terrible grip. Aa they lay struggling there tbe farmer was startled by the sound or en approacbicg train. Tbe south-bound express was rounding a curve and approaching tbe two at lightning speed. Fulierton looked and eaw it coming. With all lie power that Le could muster, aided by the impulse of fear, he gave one tremendous epring and broke loose from the tramp's grip. He had not a moment to spare when be made the spring, and as he jdtuoed the side of the cowcatcher of the ergme grtzad his shoulder. The tramp, endden'y alarmed, also attempted to escape, but t j fore he could regain his feet the cowcatcher struck and kilhd him instantly. The farmer when the train had passed, stood alone with the dead body. The remains were subsequently picked up, and the man's clothing searched. In the pockets were found the money and watch stolen from the farm house and referred to above. These were returned to the farmer. There was nothing tobs found about the dead man to prove bis identity. A Coroner's inqaeat will be held, and may throw some new light on the etrargs tragedy. THE PRINCE CONSORT. Iii Action In the Mason-SUtlell A flair. Mr. Theodore Martin's concludirg vol ami of the life of the P; iace Consort baa e?pccial interest to American readers on account of the light it throws upon the position taken by Queen Victoria ani Prince Albert oa the Trent affair. Until now it has hardly been known tbat it was largely owing to the efforts Ot tbe Queen and Prince Albert that an amicable settlement of tbe aCdir was reached. Oa the receipt of the news that Mason and Slidell had been arrested, Lord Palmerston instantly ordered troops tobe sent to Canada. At tbe time EngUnd'.was in a state of excitement. Tbe illness of tbe Princ -Consort, the insidious attempts on tbe pait of Louis Napoleon to instigate the Manchester people to active opposition to America, and tbe natural hostility of many, kept afTira in a ferment In the midst of this excitement and hostility Prince Albert remained cool and anxious to settle tbe affair amicably. Ill and rcarcely able to hold a pen, oa tbe 1st of December, 1SGI, he made corrections, with strong objections, to the dispatch of "Lord John' to Lord Lyons, tbe tenor of which and of bis opinions may be gathered from the (Queen's memorandum on returüinc; the riispatch to tbe foreign office. It read?: "It 6 Qieen returns tbese important drafts which, upon tbe whole, she approves, but she can not help feeling that tbe main drf . is eomewhRt meiger, Stieihould have liked to bare seen the ciprepsloa cf a hope tbat the American Captain did not act under instructions, or, if he did. that he misapprehsndedthem; that ttie United States G07 ernment roust be fully awire tbat the Britieh Government could not allow iti fliz to be insulted and the eecuiity of her mail communications to he placed in jeopardy; and Her Majesty Government is unwilling to believe that the Uni'ed States Government intended wcctonly to put an insult upon this cCUiitiy, atd q add to th ir many dis'.reMirg complications by fgrciDg a question of dispute upon us; and that we are, therefore, glad to believe that, upon a full consideration of the circumstances of the undoubted breach of international law committed, they would spontaneously offer such redress as alone could satis.'y this country, viz : tbe restoration of the unfortunate pass&ngera, and a suitable apology." The result of this was that the dispatch finally sent to Lord Lyons was 60 modified that, even in the excited state of the two countries, it was received by both with satisfaction. This averted war, and, as the Queen said, "it was greatly owing to her beloved Prince," whose observations on the dratta of the two dispatches were the last words that he wrote. llaniey'a Advice to Grant. Richmond State. The venerable General Harney called upon Grant at the St. Chart :s Hotel, in New Orleans, the other day, and after a renewal of "old acquaintance" they entered into a very friendly confab, when the old Indian fighter remarked: ' Grant, I hope you are not after the Presidency egain. You have bad it twice, and that's enough for any man. Why, I cm 83 older soldier than you, and was in the Held when yon were in the cradle, and yet I haven't been President once, cor do I desire to be mind I said an older, not a better soldier." Grant smiled quietly, but said notbine. A newspaper writer, who died in a hospital at Cincinnati recently, willed hia body to a Doctor for tbe benefit of science. It wes a superfluous precaution, however. As he died ia Oaio, science or some other medical college would have got his body, anyhow. Norristown HenlJ. Stop it at once.

THE 10L. !lin)IANA WEEKLY STATE SENTINEL ENLARGED AND IMPROVED. 1.00 PER AN2TUM! TOE PAPER FOB THE PEOPLE PliOSPJECTUS FOR 1SSO. The cornice presidential rear nrnmioAii tr v the most eventful and thrilling in a politic, aenae tbat we bave ever witnessed, &n4 wiij dotermlne questions of the most vital Import nee 10 every citizen 01 me rotate ana nation, It is not Improbable indeed, it is alraoet cer tain tbat, upon tbe determination of the questions, will depend the perpetuity of our present system of free government. These questions will ba thoroughly discussed during the present session of Congress. Tbe Sentinel has arranged tor a first-class, experienced special correspondent at Washington, and, in addition to giving a true adcount of all the general proceedings in tbat body, will give the leading speeches of our most prominent statesmen, and without depriving our patrons of the usual amount oX reading matter. The Sentinel will hereafter contain a supplement, making In all blxty Colamn of composition. In a word, it is the purpose or the Sentinel, as a steadfast watchman of public intelligence to do its whole duty in affording information to lta subscribers upon ail these topics of euch vast moment. As in 76 so In UO Indiana will be called upon to take a first position in tbe front of the great contest, and upon the success or failure of tbe KTeat and gallant Democracy of our State will depend tbe fate of issues the most portentous) ever submitted to the arbitrament of a free people. We shall also specially call attention, from day to day, as occasion may require, to an entirely 2V ew Phase in the politics of our Bute we mean the forced emigration for temporary partisan puropses 01 pauper negroes from the South into Indiana. The managers and lead ers of the Republican party, in our State and at Washington, are now engaged in this nefarious work, and are attempting by every means in tbeir power to promote its advancement. They have failed, utterly failed, to convince our people of the correctness of their political principles by reason or argument; tbeir appeals to hatred and prejudice nave alien narmlees: their lavish and corrupt expenditures of public and private moneys have proved wholly futile. They propose now by an African invasion of worse than a vandal qorue of beggars and mendicants to override tne voice of the people of the State, and to drown the Democratic majority. The last resort, tbe forlorn bope. the assaulting party, tne Dicket assailing cores of Republicanism in Indiana, is thus made up not from the Hunters, Harrisons, Ilellmanscrtihackieforda of the State: not from the intelligence or ability of that party, but is composed of m motley, partl-coloree gang of wretched field negroes from the South. The froth and tsenm of this worthless Importation are made use oi to destroy the free franchise of resident citizens, and to tax our means of home labor and domestic subsistence for the support of the political tenets of a defeated faction. Tne sleepless Sentinel, npon the heights ot popular rights and popular liberty, predict that thla movement will also be a failure. With respect to thla before un beard ol method ot manufacturing party majorities In a H Late, we Bball at all timet! give the latest and most reliable intelligence. The American Democracy, the Federal Union, tbe rights of the people And the States, one and inseparable now and forever. The merits of the Sentinel as a general newspaper are so well known among the farmer! of thla State, especially those of the Democratic persuasion, that commendation of It is deemed superfluous. We will add, however, that the management has arranged and fully determined that no paper Khali furnish so great practical value to its patrons for tbe money. 4 In Its news, Its editorials. Its literary and miscellany in a word, In its general readingit snail net be surpassed by any paper circalated in the State. It will be particularly adapted to the family circle. We do not believe that any reading, thinking man in the State can afford to 0 without the Weekly Sentinel at the small coat at which.
