Wisdom is now spoken of a.- the "tainted incretary of the Treasury." The probabilities now are that the Mahdne business will break the sudid North. Sesatob Matt Caepesteb has above $50,O", exclusive of $50,000 life insurance. Cokkliso is down on Ohio men for Presic i ts. He regard: thein as dead failures. 'jarkikld is wrestlinz with the "deadlrr k" and la-sins a pound of tle!i every day. A veritable trail for the recovery of Charley Kor-s, it is believed, has been discovered. The rumor is that tlie long lost boy is in England. The largest crop of sugar raised in Louisiana before the War was in 1SG1, when it reached 45'.), 4 10 hotheads. The largest since the War was in 1S78 hogsheads. A LKXARDiR Iii. was informed if lie per fitted Sophie PerolTsky to be hanged that the entence of deatli would at once bo passed upon him. The Czar has accepted the hallende. The women have secured a triumph in Nebraska, where the Legislature, by a threefifths vote, has submitted a woman's suffrage amendment to the Constitution of that State to liio popular vote. It is Haid that "Italy has ä surplus of f)0,0)0 lirex. She might send a few over "hi ret edit Republican organs." The Kept! Llican jarty in the United States has a srirpIiiM of about 1,000,000 liars. IlErrDLicAN leaders are terribly anxious net to be known as Prohibition champions jut now. The temjerance temest with them is over. Their temj-erancc friends nitistview their cowardice with sublime contempt. It instated in a Ilritish Parliamentary pa per that the number of emigrants who lft Irish j.rts in 1S.H0 was (.r),87", an increase of 4s,l.KJ as compared with 1S70. The total number who loft the Irish ports from May, 1S51, to the .",1st of December, 1SS0, is 2.C'i7,l7. Last year the United States absorbed 7 s. 1 percent, i f the emigrants. the prohibition question Senator IJayard has expressed himself by xaying. "So far my experience jm?s. a well-regulated systru of licence, whereby revenue is largely brought into the public treasury, coupled with severe ien:ilties for illicit sale, has I' roved the met c'linent check upon the abuse of theli'iuor trallic." That t.-. about the siite of it. There is a probability of a cattle war in the territory of the Chick isaw Nation. There is a threat deal of gran in that country, and Texas stock men have been in the habit of turning their cattle tipon it, paying certain prircs. The price has been advanced. The stock men won't pay, and they have been ordered oil". They refuse to go, and some shooting may b the result. It is stated that "emigration is depopulating some of the large estates in the Prussian Provinces. One hundred ami eleven families have quitted the Parish of i-Yhwt-n-tt n, in the Uraudenz District, for America. This com. s of compelliug every workingman to carry a soldier on his back, and prosecuting him as a Socialist if he grumbles at the load." And Mill when Germans tell in America the Mory of their wrongs in Germany under Dismarck's ruleof "iron and Mod," Americans are found who denounce them as dangerous, and clearly intimate that inslcad of emigrating to America they ought to have betn shot. The present Czar, Alexander III., when he stepped into his father's bomb-wrecked boot, concluded it would be a good thing to make 80, 0)0,000 subjects take a blood-curdling oath of fealty. As a result, "every Russian above twelve years ofage is required to swear that it is both his duty and his will to obey the Czar and his Crown Prince in all thing"; that he will not spare his life as long as u drop of bltod is left in protecting and defending all the rights and prerogatives belonging to the autocracy power, and authority of the Czar, now or hereafter; that he Will keep every secret, and will do all this with the issumption of the fullest responsibility at the day of judgment, and with a renunciation of all Divine help in owe he proves fa' tiiless." It is doubtful if?nc!i forced oaths will reduce the number of Nihilists or make them less disposed to engage in bomb throwing. The Springfield Republican pays that Secretary Dorsey of the National Uepublicnn Committee bitterly regrets the famous dinner given him in New York, and admits that it has ruined htm politically By the way, the bills for the dinner, amounting to $s,0'K), are said to bi Mill unpaid, though the Committee of distinguished citizens Fierrepont. Morgan, John Jacob Ator, John S. ritewart and others under whose f&tronage. the affair was gotten up expect to foot them finally. Pome of these men did not know who Dorsey was when they pave their names to the invitation, and two of them thought he was a Senator from Indiana." The Indiana bosses who are out .ntheold will hear the news of Dorsey's troubles with grim satisfaction. They have vriehed bim cremated a thousan i times or taore. He has been to them a tombstone hs fact, a -emetery; mor properly a gravt
digger, im fact an undertaker, or all of these things together. He has killed them and buried them, and the $8,000 banquet was a sort of a wake. Grant delivered the funeral oration when he said Dorse y "carried Indiana." General Ben Harrison seems to be as dead as the rest He can't make ap his mind to do anything. He fears a split in the party. Garfield hesitates. He also fears a split. The "delegation" seems to have split and has abandoned the bosses. There never was just such anothercase.
WHERE THE RESPONSIBILITY BELONGS. The special session of the Indiana Legislature has ended and its members have gone to their homes. Much was done at the regular and sjecial sessions, but more world have been had it not been for the filibustering of the Republican leaders on the last working day of the special session. Sena tors Langd on. Chapman, Gmbbs and Conistock consumed two precious hours on Thursday evening in trying to prevent the passage of the Supreme Court Commission law. Hut nine Senators followed their lead, but the meager following did not prevent them from persisting in their factious opposition to the will of the Senate. Speeches against time and dilatory motions were the means they resorted to to thwart the will of more than two-thirds of the Senate. In this work of obstruction they seemed to have the active 8upirt of the Lieutenant Gov crnor and tke Secretary of the Senate, for on the vital vote that on suspending the constitutional restriction, and putting the billon its passage it was announced that the vote was one less than the necessary twothirds. Senator Howard, who kept a tally of the vote, publicly stated that thirty-Gve Senators voted in the affirm ative, but no heed was paid by the Chair to this announcement. Senators Metizies and Dell demanded a verification of the vote, but the Lieutenant Governor ignored the demand and called up another bill. II was apjurent to all who were present that lie did not intend to allow a verification of the vote, but when Senators Henry and Spann both Republicans joined in the demand, he weakened and allowed it to be do.te. The result showed that thirty-five Senators voted in tavor of the motion, two more than the Chair announced, and were so recorded. The strangest part "of, this eventful history" is the Secretary had correctly recorded the vote, so its false announcement lays between him and the Chair. It was clearly his duty to have corrected the Lieutenant Governor, but he did not do so, and allowed the false announcement to go to the Senate unchallenged by him. The factious opposition of Senators Iiangdon, Chapman, (Jruhbs and Comstock to the Supreme Court Commission bill cost Jhe people much. Had the two hours consumed by these Senators in filibustering been employed in legitimate work the sjK'cific approbation bill might have been saved. It is true that three hours is too short a time for a legislative body to projerly consider a bill of so much importance, but had the time been faithfully employed, the bill might have passed the. Senate. Therefore it will be seen that the people of Indiana are indebted to four Republican Senators and they all leaders on their side of the Chamber for the failure of one of the most important bills that came before the Legislature. When the jcople come to make up their verdict upon the legislators and legislation of the last two sessions of our State Legislature, they will remember these facts, and justly hold the Senators we have named responsi ble for the failure of imjortant legislation. DISEASED AND DECAYING HUMAN ITY. Evidence is cumulative that diseases are increasing and that the human family is going to decay with alarming rapidity. It is held by observant physicians that diseases relating to and seated in the nervous system are alarmingly multiplying, that morbid nervousness is now a growing atlliction of Americans, making itself manifest by neuralgia, .sick headache, dyspepsia, hay fever, neurasthenia or nervous exhaustion. There is, it is said, with Americans increased sensitiveness to heat and cold and a greatly augmented susceptibility to the action of stimulants and narcotics. We see less fat people, while more thin persons appear. This nervousness is in a large measure the outgrowth of mental anxiety, our work and want of relaxation. A medical writer attributes the nervous condition of Americans to our present state of civilization. Nervousness aggravates, if it does not causediabetes, Rright's disease of the kidneys nephritis and granular kidneys The writer holds that heart diseases are increasing steadily, particularly those of nervous origin and nature. Rheumatism and gout, in both of which it is said there is a neu rotic or nervous element, are more severe than they were years ago. In discussing the subject, the medical writer adds that "life, even though it be not shortened, is often rendered miserable by so-called mild nerv ous disorders, such as hysteria, herpes zos ter, urticaria, writers' cramp and sick head ache " Premature baldness and early de cay of the teeth are both far more frequent than they used to be, while our leading druggists testify to the greatly increased consumption of nervous remedies, such as morphine, hyoscyamus, conium, chloral, the bromides, arsenic, strychnia and gel seminum. The consumption of tea, coffee and tobacco is alio largely on the increase the two former neurotic beverages and the latter a great nerve sedative. In solving the complex problem of nervous diseases, the writer believes the causes are du to the in creasing complexity ot me nervous system and to the increased complexity of life. He Fays the brain is increasing in size in the American leople, and this effects its functional activity immensely, liven though its size may not be increased, there is a great elaboration in structure and in the way of a tiner architecture of our brains, new phases of intelligence, and new proclivities to nervous disease. Our brains are finer in structure and more subtle in mechanism, but Instability is the result. The conditions of modern life, which act on our complex and excitable, nervous systems, cause our increased nervous disease, and even mental discas Itself. Modern systems of education are also influential In promoting nervousness, and in contributing to the' increase of mental and nervous diseases. The general tendency of ' modern education on the young is to inj
crease tlx activity and susceptibility of the
nervous system by modifying the nutritior. of the brain' centers and stimulating their growth, and in fragile, sickly, or badly nourished children, inducing brain exhaustion and organic disease. Such statements are well calculated to arouse the solicitude of parents and educators, for it is quite likely that in our - schools more than anywhere else American fivilization is defective. The increase of hab itual headaches is attributed to the exhausting" effects of ex cessive and ill-directed brain wtrk.in our modern schools arid the writer say's he has traced sleeplessness, night-terrors, aofHiam bulism, epilepsy, hydrocephalus, hallucinations, and other troubles to educational pressure unwisely applied to delicate children. The great trouble is to make persons understand that brain tissue degenerations and mental diseases may be separated by long intervals of time from the too premature and intense stimulation of the brain which cause these nervous diseases. Hydrocephalus, how ever, is a nervous disease, which shows itself at once from overstimulation of the brain in the young, and of late years the increase in deaths from this disease has not been among infants, but among children and young people from live to twenty years in the educational period of life. To remedy the difficulties and dan gers set forth, the writer says. We must resist the inroads of nervous and mental disease by a due attention to the regulation of the emotional elements, by disciplining the natural forces of character, and by placing be fore ourselves high ideals. We must remem ber to work wisely, without baste as well as with proper rest in our different vocations of life. Sleep is essential to mental health, as during sleepour brain cellsderive their nutri tive renovation almost entirely, and biain workers need much sleep. Meals, to be digested, must be eaten slowly, not hastily, for we are rapidly becoming a nation of dyspejw tic, from too rapid eating, and vertigo and giddiness are often due to temporary derange ment of the digestive organs. We may enjoy constitutional vigor and a well-balanced development of parts, or, by carelessness and neglect, we may suffer from constitu tional debility and an irregular development of parts. If the schools of America are productive of such physical and mental disorders as have been outlined, then the highest good of society demands that cease less agitation should be had until the evil is overcome. WINDOM, THE STOCK JOBBER. The New York World of Friday last de votes three columns of its space to the point and summary of the brief of Messrs. James Kmott and Joseph H. Choate in the ease of Villard against the Northern Pacific Railroad Company. It is a document that should have the widest possible circulation, from the fact that it brings into prominence the corrupt . stock jobbing transactions of Mr. William Windom, Garfield's Secretary of the Treasury. That the cSuntrv now has at the head of Its fiscal affairs a man steeped in stock jobbing abominations there can be little room for doubt. The burden of proof is a'l that way. In commenting upon the brief submitted by Messers. Kniott and Choate the World says: It recites the hUtory of an association whleh can only be exactly described as a "ring" formed to obtain a charter for the Northern Pacific Kailroad, to build that-road out of the proceeds of bonds, and to Issue stock to Its own members for which nothing whatever should be paid. The memtiers of the ring assessed themselves ts,?00 each, or SI 02,000 in all, for the purpose of procuring frcra Congress a charter to serve as the basts of their predatory operations. "Kot a share of common stock," the brief we arc citing Mates, "has been paid for or lawfully or properly Is sued." Of this common stock Mr. William Windom, who during some of these transactions was a Representative and during the rest of them a Senator of the United States from Minnesota, and who is now Secretary of the Treasury of the United States, has Just been put on record as claiming at least more than 2,000 shares. How Old he get them? The brief tells us that not a share of his stock was "paid for or lawfully Issued." and Windom was not one of the members of the original ring, now did he get Into it? The presumption Is overpowering that he got In by such services as were to be expected frora a Representative and a Senator who turns out to be a large stockholder in a corporation the projectors of which found It necessary to put up 8IW.000 to secure a charter for it, and to secure such other friendly legislation as It might need, Including a Joint resolution, approved in lsGD, giving it the permission, which had been expressly refused In its original charter, to mortgage Its road, and an other joint resolution, approved In 187Ö, giving It permission to mortgage all its proper. y. That Windom paid for his shares by using his vote and influence in Congress there is no doubt. He paid no money. He was not one of the original ring. If, therefore, he got in, it was by such services as he could render the Company as a Member of Congress or a lember of the Senate, and this supposition :s strengthened by a bit of posi tive evidence as to the nature of Windom's services to the ring. In the Congressional Record for January 13, 18(50, may be read the following interest ing and suggestive statement: Mr. Windom introduced a bill (II. R. No. 1.7Jf) additional to an act granting land to aid in tho construction of a railroad and telegraph line from Lake Superior to Pugct Sound on the Paeif! e Coaxt by the northern route; which waa rmJ t first and second time and referred to the Cotnuiiteo on the I'acltlc Railroad. Windom is probably more corrupt, or as corrupt, as any man who served under Grant, and his recent funding operations are well calculated to add to the feeling of unrest that pervades the public mind on account of his gross usurpation of power with regard to funding operations, for which he deserves impeachment, an escape from which, says the World, "Mr. Windom no doubt relies upon a narrow partisan majority of Con gress a narrow partisan majority now pre cariously maintained in the Senate by the uncompleted purchase of the Iteadjuster Mahone, and certain, if a general election were to be held this autumn, to he wiped out altogether in the House. It may very probably be wiped out there even as things are, by the election held to fill vacancies in Districts commonly doubtful, which the course of the administration and of the Seiv ate is rapidly turning Into Districts undoubt edly Democratic." Such is William Windom, the man shown to be a corrupt stock-jobber, and who not only usurps the powers of Congress in deal ing with the finances of the Government but who for corrupt purposes permits the banks to dictate his policy. ' It la possible, as the season advance, that eggs, which, thank Heaven, cannot be adul
terated, will decline in price so that people
or moderate incomes may be able to pur chase a few for current use. Should they have the means to pack eggs for future use, the following process furnished the New York Journal of Commerce may be valuable: "Fresh laid eggs rubbed in good fresh butter (not lard), and placed in salt small end down, not allowed to touch each other, and covered over, if kept air tight will remain good for several months. I have kept them lor six and eight months." PERSONALS. Dexveu advices say that Albert II. Tfelfer.a pioneer and a comrade of Kit Carson, Is dead. Colonel J. B.

Apropos of the Poets' Festival which the Pbe Memorial Committee U to hold at the Academy of Music on April 23, the three hundred and seventeenth anniversary of Shaküpeare's birth, John 0. Whittler writes: "I gave the first money I ever earned for a copy of Shalupeare, and it has proved the best Investment I ever made. The long years since have only deepened and intensified my admiration of tue great creative poet." A Massachusetts lady of Btrong temperance principles, supposing that Mr. John G.

A Heavy Forgery and the Forger's Fate, A dispatch dated April 17 from Montreal, Caaada, to the Chicago Times says: The will, for the forgery of which S. II. Vanarsdin. a lawyer of Philadelphia, has hopn rrov here by Detective Curds, of the Pinkerton agency Is that of the late Robert Whitaker. of Philadeliiii, m renreu giant manufacturer, whose estate amounted to over Sl.UUO.Ouo. It appears that the prisoner was indicted by the Grand Jury of the County of Philadelphia for conspiring with several others in issuing, uttering, and publishing a fonred instrument purporting tobe the last will and testament of Whittaker, by wbleh the conspirators got possession of the property of tne deceased. The history of the case as detailed in the certified copy of the indictment lodged with Judge Cross, of the Superior Court, who granted the warrant for Vanarsdin's arrest, is of the most startling character, from the boldness of the attempt to appropriate such a vast mm vithnnt ih. sliRhtest claim upon it.

Murder Will Out. A dispatch to the Chicago Times from Reading,. I'a., dated April 1", says: A sensation has been created In the city to-day by the arrest of three well-known cltUens charged with bavins committed a murder fifteen years ago. the circumstances of which have Just been made public. The names of the accused are George Gottschall, Samuel Butterweck and Wm. hyler. 1 her were taken Into custody at a late hour last night by Officers Sheelcr. Manncrbach and Gross, of this city. Gottschall fifteen years ago was the proprietor of a resort on Cedar street in this ctty known as the Buck Hall, which. luring theWar. was freaucnted bv soldiers tiHssinir through Reading. It whs in this place that David Good, a volunteer, is said to have met the defendants lit the month of October, Inm, and to have got Into an altercation with them and a certain John Tomly, still at larg". whose present realdeuce is unknown. Oood was badlv beaten and he next morning bis dead body waa found at a lime kiln In the southern section of the ctty. aUitit a milo from the scene of the previous night's affray. X Coroner rendered a verdict that death had been caused throngh suffocation bv the poisonous fumes rising from the kiln. The public va satisfied with the verdict, and the matter rested qujvtly until a confession was made yesterday by Gottschall s wile, who 1 on a sick lied ar.d believed to be at the point of death. She charges that 0mk1. on the night in question, was kicked and beaten In her hutiband's saloon until life was extinct, and that the body was put Into a bag and carried to the place where it was discovered. Another witness Is said to have seen four men carrying a suspicious-looking bundle at a late hour in the nhjht, and to have noted them to return soon afterward without anything. The confession of Mrs. Gottschall has recalled the fact that v there were marks on Good's face and the heela-of his hhrtos, as though he had been dragged. There were also several holes Iu his head, which were ascribed at the time-, by the Coroner's Jury, to having T.een caused ty having fallen upon the limestone rocks In the vicinity of the kiln. L'pon the strength of the enn.fcs.sion. Joseph Good, a brother of the deceased, lodged information against the defeudiinut before Alderman Maxton, who Issued the warrants and caused their arrest. Gottschall and ltuttenveck, who recently em braced religion, were apprehended in Church, creating great excitement. Butterweck is said to have made a confession while conscious-stricken, and this, coming to the ears of (iottschall's wife, worried her to such an extent that in tho delicate condition of her health and with death staring her in the face she resolved to tell all she knew. Her statement is said to be in the hands of the District Attorney. M ho has suppressed its publication until it can be presented to the Court. Killed Uer Twins.

According to the oldest precedents of common law. Judge Maromoer, oi tne Mi pre me Court in this city, refused in December to make that injunction permanent He decided with and for the molders on the grounds that without re orting to violence they nnia ngtn under itepuoucau laws and institutions to combine, and by their united effort to keep un wages by the means thev cmloved as members of the Iron Molders I'ldon.

It does not appwr that such acts.whethcr done or threatened to be done, resulted, or would have resulted. In irreparable Injury to the plaintiff. The discretion of the fspeclal Term Judge in refusing to continue to Injunction was nroierly exercised."
