A large number of Republican officials are now under indicthient for embezzling Government money. The Republicans, it is claimed, will have a majority ot eighteen in tbe Indiana Legislature on joint ballot. The Senate is a tie. Gesckal Garfield is likely to have trouble with the colored brethren. They demand a representative in hi Cabinet Let Tinchback follow Schurz. Qvitk a number of Republican papers have had the manliness to confess that their former criticisms of Governor Williams were unfair and erroneous. . The indications are that Republicans want an extra session of Congress. Democrats will give President Garfield no reason lor ordering the luxury, still it may be ordered. The civilized world should make war upon England and compel her to act justly toward Ireland. The condition of tbe Irish is said to be worse than that of any other people in the world. Mi Delmae estimates that $3,700,000,000 of silver and gold has been sent to China and India since the middle of the sixteenth century, and that not more than one-tenth of it has ever found its way back to Europe. A Federal Judge in Mississippi has dismissed the charge of fraud in the counting of the votes in General Chalmer's Congressional District, but it is safe to bet that Republicans will not cease their bowlings. Oct of 1,98'J lives imperiled by various disasters during the past year, 1,930 were saved through the efforts ot the Life-Saving Service. The total amount of proierty saved by the same service amounts to $2,619,800. The Dead Letter Oince for the fiscal year endiag June 30, received 3, 3ö3,G31 letters: 21,971 letters contained notes, checks and drafts, with a face value of $1,520,217, and 27,000 letters contained money, amounting to $1U,43S. The estimated receipts from internal taxation for the last fiscal year amounted to $115,000,000. The actual receipts amounted to $123,082,000, an excess of $8.923,000. Congress ought to lighten the burden somewhat. Let us have free friction matches. Dcrug the month of November the coinage executed by the United States Mints was as follows: Double cables pieces, 452,000; value, $040,000. Eagles pieces, 198,880; value. $1.933,300.

They represent th.t they are terri bly oppressed.and it is further urged that taxing banks reacts upon the business of, the country and is therefore a fcreat calamity. It' s still further urged that the Government does not need the r venue secured br taxing banks, and can 'get along remarkably; well witbout it Indeed, it is asserted that without the $3,000,00 derived' from bank taxation the Government can pay all expenses and reduce the public' debt $100,000,000 a yeaf, Such statements are made ' br rnn of high characle'rj wiiv is j Vp faj4lViif f jtji the subject of revenues. Tntj fact thai Ihi

Gevernment Is so well-to-do will likely'suggest to the minds 'of a good many people that in reducing taxes the best place to begin is not the banks. The people are now enormously taxed to support National Banks, and if the banks are required to refund some of the money, it is no inore than right. Let us have fair play in 'inatters of taxation. -7 .

It is expected that France will be obliged to import nearly 70,000,000 bushel. Of wheat for consumption during the pending winter, and there is no doubt who will reap the accruing benefit. The French can not get what they want from Russia, as that Government lias been compelled to place prohibitive restrictions upon the exportation of breadstuff. They must, therefore, come to us, and as nearly 500,000,000 bushels of wheat were garnered in he United States this year, we shall, no.doubt, be able to supply their wants. THE PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE. We lay before the readers of the Sentinel this morning the. last annual message of Rutherford B. Hayes, whose .occupancy of the White House will cease March 4, 1WL The document has no remarkable features; it gives expression to no commanding thoughts; it is a somnolent state paper; it deals in platitudes; it is wanting in vigor, and in all regards is characteristic of Rutherford B. Hayes. The message congratulates the members of the Senate -and House of Representatives "on the continued and increasing prosperity ot our country," and credits "Divine Providence" with bestowing the ''blessings of health, abundant harvests and profitable employment." The message refers to the fact that the Government of the United States is at peace with all the Nations of the earth. Mr. Hayes points with special pride to the fact that the late Presidential eleciion passed off quietly. He believes there is no necessity for a Solid North or a Solid South, and that as soon as the Fifteenth Amendment is obeyed, everything ' like the solidity of sections will disappear. Mr. Hayes renews his recommendations uj)on the subject of Civil Service Reform, and urges legislation upon the subject with considerate emphasis. As matters now stand, Mr. Hayes is of the opinion that the "stability of the Government" is in danger. He wants Congress to enact a law establishing "fixed rules for the regulation of ap jKIntment., promotions and removals, establishing uniform methods, having exclusively in view in every instance, the attainment of the best qualifications for the position in question. It is to , be hoped that Congress will at tince proceed to give Mr. Hayes a law that will meet with his approval. Mr. Hayes takes stroiiKground against polygamy, and reconi mends aggressive legislation against the Mormons. He favors wiping out the present Territorial Government of Utah and the establishment of a Government "analogous to the provisional Government established for the territory northwest of .the Ohio by the ordinance of 1787." If that will not do, then he recommends that the right to vote, hold office and sit on juries in the Territory of Utah be confined to those who neither practice nor uphold polygamy. Aside froiu these things, the message is devoid of special interest, and is chiefly made up of a rehash of Department reports. Mr. Hayes favors. like John Sherman, a bigger silver dollar ami the retirement of the greenbacks. He mildly refers to the Monroe doctrine with reference to the Darien Ship Canal. He favors granting subsidies as a means of extending the commerce of the country. Such a policy would draw largely upon the Federal Treasury, and whatever might be the result in a commercial point of view, it would largely benefit the private gentlemen who iocketed the money. The subject of education is touched upon, with a few flourishes of the pen designed to impress Congress with the importance of educating the ignorant who reside in States where school funds are not sufficient to meet the educational demand. In such cases, Mr. Hayes would draw on the Federal Treasury. The message will create no excitement and precious little interest anywhere, the only recommendation calculated to create a ripple on the smooth surface of political puddles being that relating to Civil Service Reform. In some regards the message is suggestive of reflections. It is the last that Mr. Hayes will issue. In lesa than three months Mr. Hayes will retire from an office to which he was elevated by means which will grow in colossal repulsiveness as the years roll on and in the future as often as his name shall be mentioned it will call up a record that no American citizen can contemplate without experiencing a sense of deep humiliation. But Mr. Hayes has made money by the operation, and has managed, it is believed, to save at least $150,000 of his salary, and to handsomely reward out of the Federal Treasury the men who contributed directly to enter upon the the duties of an office which, by the fiat of the American people, belonged to another citizen. THE INDIANA DEMOCRACY AND THE LATE CANVASS. Some of our friends abroad do not seem to have formed a just estimate of the late contest made by the Democracy of Indiana, ami in this show - they have taken but a buperficial view of the subject. It docs not fceetu to have been understood abroad that the Democracy have not had a majority in this State since 1872,and then only on Governor by some 1, 100 votes. They have had a pi urality at several elections sine; 1S72, but never a majority. During all this time the Greenbackers held the balance of (tower, and controlled results, as they did, also, this fall, as an examination . of the figures will show. Our friends abroad deceived themselves in counting as certain what the election returns of the iast eight years showed must be uncertain. And, now, some of them make the further mistake of supposing the result In Indiana was owing to mistakes in the State canvass; or thatsomeof the Democratic candidates were found wanting. There never was a more thorough or better canvass made in the State than that of im, and the result shows that the party ; Mood together as one man both in October and November. In October, 1676r the Democratic vote was 213,219; In Novembertf the" same' Vearlt was 213.516. In October"' - 1&V 'U was, 224,452; and in November. 18S0, it wasJ25.552..Tiise A- " .-.'.- r ' '' ' - . ngures shew' that' the Democrat Lava iiot retrograded in the least in the last lour yct& ycaxÄ

The increase of 1,070 between October and November, 1$0, shows that' the gallant Democracy was not at all demoralized by the

defeat in October. The"s rote cast by the' Greenback party at each election shows that a larger portion of that party went to the Republicans than to the Democrats, and hence, the result this falL It is a mistake, too, to suppose that the Democrats were not properly supplied with money to make the canvass. In point of fact, there was three times as much money used by the Democrats in the canvass ot 10 as there was in the canvass of 1876, or any previous canvass. No, the Democrats of Indiana were not defeated from any fault of their own, but from causes entirel beyond their control. They have suffered a temporary reverse, but it is only a question of time when they will again come into power. THE GRAND ROLL-CALL OP 1880. Leaving entirely out of consideration the question of partisan iolitics, the success and defeat of candidates and parties, there is that connected with a Presidential campaign and election in the United States well calculated to excite the pride of American citizens and to endear to them the institutions of the country. On the 2d day of November, 1SS0, more tnan 9,000,000 freemen went to the polls to name their chief rulers for four years from the 4th of March, 1M1. Here and there were irregularities and slight disturbances, but as a general proposition citizens were everywhere obedient to law, and as a result, in sofar as voting may be considered, the people are satisfied. The result of the day's work is shown by the following complete table, which we take from the Chicago Tribune: The total vote for President is 9,192,063, which is divided as follows: tarfieM-.. ............

Upon that subject ex-Governor Hubbard says that "a battle lost is not a war ended; for no piestion is fast settled until it is settled right. The Democratic party has a history and a long career of achievements. It is a old, well nigh, as the Republic. It has witnessed the extinction of I know not how many rivaT arties. It will live as long as the Vepublic. It has sometimes been defeated, but never conquered. It has gone down into captivity, overborne sometimes by numbers, sometimes by fraud; but it has rcgathered its strengtli and reformed its legions and come up again out oi its captivity like a lion from the swellings of Jordan It will do so again; do not for a moment doubt it. The old guard dies, but never surrenders. The Democratic party neither dies nor surrenders." WHO HAS THE BONDS? Ir. Robert P. Torter, of the Census Office at Washington, has compiled a statement, showing the ownership and distribution of the 4 and 4K per cent, registered bonds up to July, 1SS0. There are outstanding $528.KiO.OSO of 4 per cents, and $170,280,800 of VA er cent, registered bonds.

In the Kastern States, 70 ier cent, of the bonds are owned by the men, and IV) per cent, by the ! women. In the Middle States, M per cent, are owned by the men. and l'J per cent, by the women. In the Western States, M per cent, are owned by the men, and V.) ier cent by the women. In the Southern States, 7 per cent, are owned by the men, and 22 Ier cent, by women.'' Of all the vast wealth represented in Government bonds, every dollar is exempt from taxation. The toiling men and women of the country pay the favored few, who have withdrawn their money from productive enterprises to live off of the sweat of labor. 'The man or woman who owns a farm or a factory pays; the man who has his money in lxinds is exempt; for it is held that a man who buys bonds exhibits a iatriotic love of country that those who cultivate farms and operate machinery do not exhibit. The buzzard luxury known as "oleomargarine'' is manufactured in Philadelphia to the amount of 5,000,000 pounds a year. It no more resembles butter than hell broth is like turtle soup, still the Philadelphia sharpers manage to seil it at home and abroad. Two-thirds of theentire product is sent to KurojH'. London, Liverpool and Glasgow, are the principal markets. Italy takes it in small quantities; China is beginning to like it, and India promises to he n good market. South America is ordering more liberally, and Holland is a large con sumer. And thus it Happens that America has set the example of exporting an abominable conijxnmd. for which as yet no word has been coined to express its nastiI1CS3. There were in the United States, accord ing to the final count, 4l4-'3f,0'X) Democrats who cast their votes for Hancock and Eng lish, against 4,439,714 Republicans who cast their voles for Garfield and Arthur; and yet there are not a few fool Republicans who talk as if lue Republican party isoverwhelmingly in the majority, and that hereafter Democrats will have little influence in political affairs. The fact is the Republicans have not a majority of the popular vote. As stated, Garfield received 4,430,714 votes, Hancock, 4,4360t50 votes and Weaver, 304,852 votes. Hancock and Weaver received 4,740,912 311,108 more than Garfield. Such figures ought to make the Republicans less boastful. PKILSONAL.
