We call the attention of County and Township Committeemen to our campaign supplements, which contain tha latest political matter up to the present time. Nothing better can be circulated among the people. We are issuing several campaign supplements containing recent speeches made by leading Democrats, and other political mat ter, which we commend to the attention of our Damocralic friends throughout the State. If called to the Presidency I should derm it tny duty to resiit teith all my jtoiccr any attempt to impair or cvalr the full force and effect of the CunxtUidion, which in ecery article, section and atwndnfnt it the supreme Utw of the land. General Hancock's Letter of Acceptance. "Vote the way you shot." Garfield drove the great soldier. Grant, out of a Republican Nominating Convention. Porter, who never fired a gun, slaughtered Streicht, another gallant sjldier, before another Republican Convention. Stanton J Peelle was elected over the heads of two creditable Geaerals, by still another Republican Convention. ''Vote the way you shot." Me. Fortir is passing himself off in good shape during his canvass as "one of the people." He thinks hia disguise is complete. He found an old hat that he had not worn for the last ten years thsn by investing seventy-five cents in a coat and allowing the duat to accumulate on his patent leathers he is getting along as well a? could be expectel. He wouldn't wear a pair of kid gloves just at this time for a hundred dollars cash. As "that man Halatead" "chatters" for Gsrfield, we suppose that the following interview held with an old soldier, which we find in the Commercial, msy be considered quite reliable. It reads as follows: "Was Hancock brntal to his men?" "No. The talk about his brutality Is all boeh, and these charges are made by men like Bob McCarter of Delaware, who fought In the Qaartermis ter's Department. I was with Hancock a 1 through Virginia, and never had to wade but one stream, and that was the Eapldan. We went into this no to our arm-pits." Asd now cornea from Indiana a report that the Judge will comply with tue wlshts of the party by reverslog their prey ions decision, going down tbe'r own throats, and coming out, judicially, the other end up. If the Indiana Judges shall actually perform this lofty and subume judleial somertault. It will furnish the best illustration of the superior advantages of a dependent over an independent judiciary that La appeared In the Jurisprudence of America since the servile Judges of George III. were driven ont of office by Americana with gnna In their bands. . The foregoing is a weak solution of Chicago Times "swash" on "a report from Indiana" that the late decision tn regard to the conttltutional amendments is to be reversed. The "report" cornea from the Ledger-Standard via Indianapolis, and contains about as much truth as the other lies lately printed in the Chicago Times and Tribune concerning Indiana Democrats and the present political campaign.

The Indianapolis Sentinel yesterday made an attempt to injure Mr. Porter by calling his father a drunkard, and declaring that be neg leeta bis parents' graves. If auch Indecency does not aid Mr. Porter's cause. It Is a disgrace to the State. Terre Haute Express. The Santinel did not call the father of Mr. Albert G. Porter "a drunkard." The Sentinel published statements made by Albert G. Porter's old neighbors, and the Republican a organs do not and dare not contradict them. They are damaging to Mr. Porter. They ahow him to be destitute of filial affection; to be cold and callous; that he was ' cot a dutiful son. -Th people jof Indiana do not like that sort of a boy, and the facta are of

character that the people ought to have them so as to form a correct estimate of the man

who aspires to be Governor of Indiana. I' ought . never to be truthfully said of the Governor of Indiana that he was waning in veneration for his father, or that Vie neglected him when living, or his rave when dead. . Jmym not in favor tfthe mili'Mry action in South Carolina recently, and if General Kuger httd telearttphed to me or asked Jrr atliiee, I tcould have adcitcd him not under tfy circumstances to alloic himself or hi troops to determine who Here th htwful members of a St'tte LrgUtaiure. Hancock to Sherman, December, ITS. GRANT'S DOGS AND HAYES CROQUET. The aphorism, that "straws show Ihe way the wind blows," is universally accepted as worthy of the notice of those who are watching air-currents, and, to verify the correctness of their conclusions, are willing to make a note of little things. In studying the true inwardness of Republican adminis trations, under cover of which the Treasury of the country has been systematically robbed, It is well enough to occasionally make a note of the ineffable meanness of some of their transactions. Under Grant and Ilayea the amount of Bmsll stealings will never be known until the Government archives pass under the control of the Democratic party, but occasionally an item is brought to light. The Washington correspondent of the New York. Sun, under date of the 7th inst, says: General Grant was supposed to be rather profl'gate In his tastes. He spent much money on his private table, gave rich entertainments, and the White House crowd consumed large quantities of liquors and cigars. Babcock attended to the expenditures for public buildings and grounds daring almost all of Grant's administration. Babcock hadlltxral Ideas. The Government paid the cost of keeping horses, coupes, wagons, etc., for the private use of public officials. Indeed, a dog which was kept by General Grant's private secretary cost the Government about S5C0 for board before the fraud was ascertained and exposed by the Democrats, The following is a sample expense voucher under Grant's administration: The U.S. (for sundries ) to Fatrlck Sweeney, Dr. 1872, September 30 For board and care of dog for July, August and September, three months, at S10. Application; used in place of watchman S30 Itecelpted as above. Pild by check fxo.S3, dated September 30. 1872, for 111, or Treasurer Washington. I certify that the above account Is correc, and Just, the articles to be (or have been) accounted for In my return for the third quarter OflS72. O. E. Baucock, Major of Engineers, U. S. A. Here we have it that the Government had to pay for the board of Grant's dog. This Presidential dog, it seems, had suffered somewhat by close attention to business.and was, probably, the only honest official near the person of the President. But the average taxpayer will likely conclude that Grant, who wai receiving $50.000 a year, could have afforded to pay tae board of his dcg. Hsyec, the fraud-made President, who was counted out by the people and counted in by men whose crimes should have Bent them to prison, has not, so far as known, sent hi! dcg to a boarding school at the puh lie expense, but has purchased for the pleasure of bis household a Mae S9t of croquet and boxwood balls, aad made the Government foot the bill. The Sun's correspondent writes as follows: Very soon after Mr. Hayes went Into the Executive Mansion he felt the need of exercise. It was therefore suggested that croquet was an Innocent and entertaining game, which could be played In the opan air without damage to repuation.- It would be just the thing to wile away the summer evening hours at the Soldiers' Home. Instead of devoting 910 of his annual Income of f 50,000 to the purchase of a croo.net set, Mr. Hayes sent a messenger to the store of a stationer in this city and ordered a set of croquet, to be charged to the Government. The following voucher the original of wbich is in the Stco-d Comptroller's office, will show how the White House croquet set was patd for: fobm 8 Appropriation for repairs, fuel, etc. United States for furniture. To J . Bradley Adams, Dr. : Date. J 18777H April 21 July 10 Designation. Application. ICost. For 1 set croquet For 8 box w'd balls RefurnlsblnglflOUO Ex.

Casey, Corps of Engineers, the sum of sixteen dollars and cents in full payment of the above account. Check No. 621, dated July 13, 1877, on Treasury of the United States for 116. Signed in duplicate J. Bradley Adams. I certify that the "above account U correct and jurt, the articles to be (or have been) accounted for ia my return for tbe third quarter of 1877. Thomas Lincoln Casey, Lieutenant Colonel of Engineers. Such vouchers demonstrate beyond all cavil the intense meanness of Republican Presidents, and it may be assumed that, if they would consent to such contemptible pilferings from the Treasury, they would take larger sums provided opportunities offered. When Republican Presidents require the Government to purchase croquet seta and board their dogs, the people who furnish the money will be likely to conclude that a change it required. The Republican papers have frequently been quoting from ''The Nation" during the campaign, but recently the extracts have been missing. Now, here is something wbich they have evidently overlooked. The Kation recently said: General Hancock's letter to General Sherman about his duty as a so dier during the Presidential crisis of 1870 bas been published The campaign acconnt of It be Tore It appeared was, naturally enough, that It contained a promise to obey Mr. Tilden's orders, and seize Mr. Hayes aod confine him In a dunSeon, or In one of tbe rooms of the Capitol nown as the American Bastlle." It turns out to be a sober and very sensible discussion of the situation from the point of view of a soldier writing to his military uporl'-r and friend. He distinctly announees that he should consider General Grant as at the end or bis authority on the 3d of March, and should, alter that date, treat the decision of Congress as binding. In case it should appear that no election by the people bad taken place under the conditions prescribed by tbe Constitution. The letter Is very creditable to General Hancock, both In his view of tbe nature of the crisis, and of the relations of the army to the civil authorities. He refers to two letters of General Sherman's to both of which tola own was an answer, and there is a natural desire to see them. We trust General Sherman will gratify this reasonable curiosity. . The bayonet is not a fit instrument for collecting the voles' of freemen, Hancock's letter of acceptance.

TUE SENTINEL.

What Our Friends of the State Press Say Abeut Us. fTerre Haute Gazette.! As is well known to our readers, the Gazette is but little given to what 1b usually termed complimentary notices, and when now we feel moved to direct special attention to theimeritcf our esteemed cod temporary, the Indianapolis Sentinel, we wish to be understood as doing ao with the earnest purpose of just commendation, meaning indeed even more than we say. The Sentinel ia surely putting a vigor and power into the campaign worthy of all praise and favor, and Is incurring an expense in giving up so much of its space to the publication of choice epeecbes and other valuable political matter that ought to be appreciated by the Democracy of the State. We know the coet of a daily newspaper, of setting the large amount of nonpareil or small type now baiog set by the Sentinel, and tbe damage and loss otherwise resulting therefrom to a paper in its general business, hence we unhesitatingly and unbegrudsingly give our voice in very earnestly urging upon Democrats everywhere throughout the 8 täte to stand by, encourage and support, and in every manner hold up the hands cf the Sentinel in its good work. Franklin Democrat.! We take pleasure in recommending the Indianapolis Sentinel as a truly No. 1 Democratic paper. It ia under the management of Jobn C. Shoemaker, a lifelong Democrat, and is a reliable and able paper, ditcuesing public measures candidly and fairly stnkiDg always at the root of the evil just where a strike would be most effective. Every Democrat who wants a paper full of the very latest news, and true as the needle to the pole in the grand cause of Democracy, would do well to send for the Sentinel. (Columbus Democrat The Indianapolis Sentinel is worthy of great praise for its fearless, outspoken course in this campaign. Under tbe management of Mr. Shoemaker, its various departments are presided over by men of ability and experience. Constantly and consistently Democratic, it leads, and waits not to kcov what politicians suggest, but always earnestly and promptly promulgates its principles, which never fail to look for the weal of the common people and the success of the great Dimocratio party. Lawrenceburg Register. The Indianapolis Sentinel Is now the best political paper circulated In the State, ana Is certainly deserving of all praise from the Democracy of Indiana for the vigorous and telling blows it is daily lDflicticg upon the ecemy. It is ably conducted and in full By r pa thy with the Democratic party, and is aa unflinching exponent of its principles. It takes no back seat, but is outspoken and fearless in its advocacy of the right, while denouncing fraud and corruption in high places that can not be mistaken. We cordially commend the Sentinel to tbe Democracy of the State, and trust it will not be hid aside for less worthy sheets. Shelby vilie Democrats Among tbe po en', valuable forces in the interest of Democratic success dunng the present campaign is the Indianapolis Sentinel. In our opinion this fact should not be overlooked or underestimated by Democrats. In its editorials, its reports, correspondence and selections, and in its publication of speeches and general work in the cause of Democracy, the Ssnthnel is certiinly in the front rank of Democratic newepapers. There is no quibbling in its columns; it strikes its sledge-hammer blows square from the shoulder, and In such a manuer as not to ba misunderstood. It has a clear and well defined individuality, characterized by fearless independence, scgsciiy and eminent ability throughout. We earnestly recommend all who desue a good newspaper, a strong, fearless exponent of Democratic doctrines and opinions, by all means to take the Sentinel. B'.oomneld Democrat. Since the present management of the Sentinel began, the daily has given sfgas of a better paper each day, and the weekly of a better paper each week; in short, the Sentinel is a good paper, and deserves a better patronage than has heretofore been accorded it by the Democracy throughout the State. Jasper Weekly Times. The Indianapolis Sentioel is tne leading Democratic paper in the State, v'gorotuly edited, and its inducements offered are unusually liberal to those wishing a first-class Democratic paper. The Sentinel also contains an epitome of State, home and foreign news, together with full market and telegraphic reports, and is so very cneap that it should ba a welcome visitor to the homes of business men and farmers throughout tbe State and country. It is customary for a great many country publishers to get up clubs with Chicago and other papers published outside of the State, but in order to be thoroughly posted in reeard to events transpiring at-home and abroad, we recommend the Sentinel, the leading Democratic news papar of Indiana. (Rnshvllle Jacksonlau. The Indianapolis Sentinel is tbe best paper published in Indiana, and we wish all our readers, who can. to take either the weekly or the daily. It is a sound and able Democratic paper, advocating the cause of the people and exposing the designs of the money power. JThe LewisvUie Democrat. The Indianapolis Sentinel ij giving a bat ter daily paper each day and a better weekly paper each week. The dally contains aH the important news of tbe day froa all parts of the world, and is neatly and nicely printed. The weekly contains 6 J columns of reading matter each week, and is sold for $1 a year. Try the Sentinel one year. Lafayette Dispatch. Tbe Indianapolis Sentinel is doing gallant work for tbe Democracy of Iodiaua. It is conducted with ability, and it it could be read by every Democrat and doubtful voter in the State Ltnders and Gray would be elected by 50,000 majority. And here let us say that if the Deinocratio State Central Committee wants to put its money "where It will do the most good," it will circulate Democratic papers like the Dispatch and Sentinel throughout the length and breadth of the Btate. In no otber way could so much good be done at ao little expense. Lagrange Democrat. The Indianapolis Sentinel is growing into popularity with neaily every issue among the sterling and well informed Democracy of the 8; ate. It is sound upon all questions, fair and explicit in argument, cutting in is attacks at fraud, corruption and the intrigues of politicians. Vevay Democrat. We would be lost without our Dally Indianapolis Sentinel. Its news is always fresb, its editorial articles clear and comprehend sive. It has rare ability and an open, fearleis way of stating its position. In a word it is unoompromuicgly Democratic and ably edited throughout, and he who would thoroughly inform himself concerning the argument, the plans and plottinesjof the party of great moral ideas, can do no better than to subscribe for and read the Sentinel. Hancock Democrat The Indianapolis Sentinel comes to us daily filled with the very best political matter and the cream of the general news. The Sentinel is just the paper for Indiana Democrats. It is preeminently a Democratio paper, bold, fearless, aod always on the watch for the enemy. Every Democrat who

is able to take a daily paper should subscribe for the Sentinel. Bloomlngton Courier. The Indianapolis Sentinel is doing very efficient work as the organ of the Democracy of Indiana. It has much Improved of late, and is now the best daily newspaper published in the State. Corydon Democrat. The Indianapolis Sentinel now justly claims a more than ordinary notice. We most heartily recommend it to our Democratic friends and the rublio generally as being a most energetic and enterprising newspaper. Its articles are fearless and in dependent, and always have the ring of Demccratlc principles. No Democrat should be without the Daily or Weekly Sentinel. Scott County Democrat. Some one has said the Indianapolis Sentinel Is nothing If it is not Democratic. We are inclined to the belief that this ia true, and we are very certain as one will say who peruses only a single copy of the paper, that it it is not only something, but it is one of the best and truest Democratic papers published anywhere. Its daily and weekly editions are both desirable, and every Democrat who can do so should provide himself with them. Goshen Democrat. We recommend all our friends who desire additional reading matter to subscribe for the Indianapolis Sentinel. It is a first class paper in every respect, and furnished at the lowest price. Nowhere else can be found so complete a compendium of Indiana news, while the news from all the rest of the world is fully given in its columns. It Is edited with marked ability, and stands for and with the people on all political questions. Crawford County Herald Rep. The Sentinel is a first class Democratic paper, giving sixty columns of reading matter each week, for the exceedingly low price of $1 per year. If the depraved tastes of any of our people lead them to hanker after real, old. genuine, bald-beaded, bare-faced, bulldczlng Democacy, tbe 8entinel is the paper they want. It always has a large stock on hand.

BURNED ALIVE. Godfrea Lentz Becomes Crssed From Drink and Locks Himself in a Room in Els Own House and Sets Fire to the Building. Yesterday afternooo, about 4 o'clock, a German gardner named Godfred Lentz, residing three miles south of the city, on what is known as the "Three Notch" road, met with a horrible aealh. While laboring under a fit of temporary insanity, he went to his room, locked the door, aet fire to the house and was burned alive. Tbe facta as obtained from an eye witness, are as folio we: Lentz had baen a bard drinker for some months past, and his immediate neighbors say drinking has often afiVcted bis mind. During the past three or four days his family hud noticed that he acted very strange end seemed to be discouraged and sullen. Yesterday afternoon he was last seen alive, going up stairs to his room a few minutes before the fire was discovered. It is supposed that he went to his room and locked himself in, and then set fire to the building, for when the fire was discovered it had gained auch headway that it was impos Bible to get to the door of the room where he was. The neighbors residing near rushed to the rescue, but were not in time to save the man from a horrible death. Mr. J. Walker, who resides in this city, was passing along the road near by, when his attention was attracted by the fire, and he hastened to tbe burning building. He, with a number of the neighbors, succeeded in saving a portion of the furniture and bedding. The building a story and a ba f frame of six rooms ia a total loss. As the burning building fell and was nearly cotsumed the charred remains of Lentz could be distinctly seen by the bystanders. He bad a small garden farm, coneiatii g of fifteen or twenty acres, and had carried on gardenirg successfully for some years.' The unfortunate man had his brother arrested in Terre Haute some time ago on a charge of forgery, which, upon investigation, proved to be groundless, there being nothing whatever to substantiate the charge. He a) S3 applied at the Central Station a short time ago for lodging, stating that he wuhed to remain there during the summer. He leaves a wife and two sons. A LIVIMG ISSUE. How Albert G. Porter Eaked In a Heavy Fee on a Five Minute Outlay of Time. Once upon a time Hon. James L. Evaas was heard to express his sentiments in regard to Albert G. Porter; and tbe subject and tbe occasion seemed to warrant tbe strong terms often beard at tbe stock yard The circumstances were these: A firm in wbich John Foudray and J. L Evans were associated had a claim against tbe Government for horses sold. It was shortly after the war. Mr. Foudray, being a personal friend, as well as constituent, of Porter's, be suggested that tbe account be sent to him for collection. The honorable gentleman collected it and charged them either $"() or $750 as ' an attorney's fee." The work consisted in walking to the Department and receipting the bill; but tbe distinguished Albino saw an opportunity for a "grab," and improved tbe shining hour. At the time, tbe gentlemen immediately concerned were not tbe only ones who thongnt it a great outrage, and one very prominent lis publican of this city (now dead) compared Albert G. Porter, in his great love of money, to "the disciple who robbed the poor and traded upon the life of his Master." There was no denial of the account; tbe claim was honorable and just. There was no obstacle in tbe way ot the collection. Any one authonzsd to sign the firm name could have gotten tbe money. Mr. Porter will hardly say that he gave the weight of his name and influence to a job to defraud the Government; and in thia particular instance it would be false, if said. The account would not have been placed in his hands aa an attorney; it was simply a favor that is often and rightly asked of Congressmen. The retention of the "fee" was merely a manifestation of the avarice and cunning by which tbe Republican candidate for Governor has added largely to an Inherited fortune. CUKllEXT OPIJilOX. REMARKABLE COINCIDENCES. New York Sun.J About the time that General Hanccck fought the battle of Gettysburg, General Garfield turned his back to the front and went into politics. About the time that General Hancock issued order No. 40 at New Orleans, Mr. Gartisld was negotiating at Washington with Oakes Ames for tbe shares in Credit Mobilier, on which he afterward received t cash dividend of (329. GARFIELD AS A WORKER. Philadelphia Times. Evidently tbe man for the hour is the one who can take oil his coat and push in his own boom. General Garfield is unquestionably this man.

Much difficulty is experienced in arranging the line of march for tbe Garfield ratification display so as not to trot the boys over any of the streets where the rotten Da Golyer pavement cbokea up the way. GENERALLY AGREED. Chicago Times. General Hancock's pen is weightier than his sword. PARSON POHKKUV'S SERMON". To a Young Man. Denver Great West.1 Do you wish to be looked upon as a man? Do you wish to succeed in business? Do you wiBh to be spoken well of by bus! nets men; or do you wish to be classed and talked about as a wart, a sponge, an ab sorber, a dead-beat that, like a burdock to a cow's tail, hangs on because it has not life enough to let loose? If you are looking toward the top of tbe big hill, permit a blunt, well-meaning man of some little experience a few words with you. Do not enter a house, a store, an office or place of business without scraping the dirt from the soles of your boots or shoes. It is not good to leave a pint of dirt from your feet upon an office floor or carpet, and have the man you were talking to aet you down as a sloven, as dirty footed men are. Do not enter a place of business smoking a cigar or a dirty, stinking old pipe. Men who bave brain work to perform do not relish an atmosphere laden with poison, nor to have to brush cigar ashes from the desk or carpet. If you muat smoke get into a smoke house, a barnyard or into the society cf some other stink-pot. Dj not, in Heaven's name, ever enter a business office and tquat yourself in the inviting chair at a aesk. No man has any business in the desk chair of another man. Do not, unless you are the eon of a sneak and can cot help it, Bnoop with your eyes over letters, envelopes, papers, accounts, etc., you may see epread open on a desk. O: ouree it is very nice to nose into other Deo pie's business, pry into other men's affairs, acquaint yourself with what does not concern you. and make yourself more dreaded than frogs, lice, bedbugs, or other vermin that, though vermin, ara too manly to look at people's letters. Do not, wheu you enter a business office, hug up to a man who is talking; nor stand around as a barker till those you are intruding upon move away to be rid of a sucker; nor lean up against the door, wall or desk, and spit tobacco juice over the floor. In other words, don't let yourself become a loafer, a banger on. Men of business judge boys and men who apply for a situation by their looks and acts. Beside this, they wera one another against spongers and barnacles. Nothing is so much against a human being as to make himself a nuisance, and the man who is where he has no business is a nuisance above others. HANCOCK AND THE SOLDIERS. Disabled Veterans Not to be Turned Out 'of Office. The Washington Sunday Herald has the followlrg: Within the next few days the Democratic National Committee will make an autboratatlve statement ot great Importance to the floating soldier vote of toe country. For some time past, ever since General Hancock was nominated, tbe Committee has ;btcn receiving letters irjm various source?, In wbich the writers HRfe wnat would be the policy of tbe Hancock administration as to tbe tenure of office of disabled s ldieri of tbe late war. Many veterans who are anxious to wheel into the TTaocock column, especially In Pennsylvania, want some assurance that their maimed comrades now in office hhhll not in any event be disturbed. Henator Wallace, Chairman of the Cod pro 3slonul Committee, who has just left Washington tor New York, made tbe statement while here that trio success of the Democratic ticket would not mean the removal of disabled Union veterans from public office. "There ongtit to be,"aiathe Senator, "no serious diubton this question la the raiDdsof any one who stops to think of tbe record made by our cauildate in defense of the Union cause. I don't apes ft by authority now, but I feel confident. J t would be more than sale to pre diet that, If General Hancock secures control of th Federal patronage, there will be no proscription practiced against thoss who were wouoa eu in the ame cause he rong-rji for. Tbey will, 1 know.be tetained regaidless of their political vie ws, on the ground that dlsabl tries received iu war mltle the soldier to tue protection f his Government, no matter what bis politics may be. lhesel know are the views of the General, and they are also the sentiments of the Democratio party a Illustrated by the course It has pursued In both branches of Congress since It regained control ." Leaning over to her flixen curls he said: "Smantha, I'm going to let go of your band for a minute, but you won't be mad, will you, darling? I wouldn't let go till yod did, only onie sort of ao ant is crawlu g down my ba-.k. and I can't keep my mind on you and autsatthe same time." Pains in the Back What they mean. How cured. A poignant pressing pain tn the "email of the back" is a dangerous symptom. It means approaching kidney trouble possibly Bright' s disease. It should not be neglected not day, not an hour. Fortunately, these symptoms are easily cured. Hunt's Remedy, tbe Great Kidney and Liver Medicine, is an absolute and unfailing specific- for them, and for any diaeasea of tbe kidneys, bladder, liver and urinary organs. A single bottle of Hunt's Remedy has many times saved a life. Sold by all druggist". Trial size, seventyfive cents. WESTERN FEMALE SEMINARY, OXFORD, O., MU Uolyoke Plan.
