Entered a second -class matter at the Postofice at Indianapolis, lad. Heavy snow storms are reported from Canada and portions of New York State. Elaisi: is everlastinelv decorated.

The ex-Einpress Eugenie was mobbed and hooted at as she left her hotel in Lyons, Prance, lor the railway station on Tuesday. Hos. "William H. Esglish, Chairman of the Democratic State Central Committee, has called a meeting of the Committee for Thursday, the 18th of May, at 2 o'clock p. m., at Indianapolis. If Mr. Blaine ever reaches the Presidency, his Administration will be a lively one. The folks around the Capital will think the brimstone factory is not over half a tnile from the White House. I a taw mill in Texas one reads the fol lowing information: "Don't munky with the buzz saw when in motion." Mr. Blaine should profit by this warning if he meets young Perry Belmont in the future. The farmers of Holland are preparing to come to the United States by thousands. They have sent an agent to Dakota, and if reports are favorable, as they are likely to be, 12,000 Hollinders, all farmers, with con siderable money, will come over. Is a recent interview Attorney General Baldwin said-that Indiana would go Democratic by a large majonty well, several thousand. That opinion of the Attorney General is a very "level headed" one, and one of the most satisfactory that he has given for a long time. A soured, hurt Republican was yesterday overheard by a Sentinel scribe letting off his gaul and bitterness toward the German saloon-keepers, and in no complimentary terms. This hih rooster re marked: "Glad the Republican party is rid of this low strata, dead-weight element. We can now have a decent party." A coRKEsrosDENf of the London Times writes from Sydney, New South Wales, as follows: "The Americans are pushing their irade here with great energy, and in some articles have ousted and in others are ousting British manufacturers. It has always been a puzzle here why British dealers are elbowed out so contentedly, and why they do not take the same pains as the Americans to study the wants of their customers. The answer given is that the trade is too small. The Americana believe that small beginnings often havereat endings." Every now anil then some of the old carpet-bag gentry is heard from. This time itisConover. The Chicago Times says: Mr. Conover, who once figured as a carpet-bag Senator from Florida, is in bard lack. Ever since he left the Senate he ha been an appilcan for a good Federal office. Hayes made him an In spector for the Treasury, a rather humble oflice for a retired statesman. Of late he has had his eye on the Postmasterehip of Tallahassee, but, after a spirited contest. President Arthur sent in the name of another man. It is claimed for Conover that though he was a carpet-bagger he -was one of the very small number of that class who did not profit pecuniarily by bis opportu nities. It is said, too, that he deserves well of his party. Tits Times makes no concealment of its rosI tion on this question. It has said before and re peats that: it w opposed, to prohibition, but in favor of submitting the question to the people, and that when submitted a majority of the people will Tote agalast prohibition. Times. There is not a grain of common sense in such twaddle as the above. An honest, sensible man, who is opposed to a thing, is apt to adopt the surest proper methods to the end desired. Such a man's opposition rests upon a con viction that the thing opposed is injudicious, unwise, wrong, and ought not to prevail. He feels that it is not only his privilege, but his duty as a good citizen to lay hold of the first available, legal and proper means to defeat orpreventthe wrong. What man, fit tobe out of an insane asylum, finding a viper in the play grounds of his children lets it go. a jing, I will bruise the serpent's head neitj year. Oca night dispatches confirm the bloody tragedy reported from Dublin Saturday night. The friends of Ireland everywhere will deplore the sudden and disastrous change that kas taken place in the affairs of that land long cursed by British rule. The assassination of Cavendish and Burke, for criminal fcrlly, is without a parallel. It occurs 'at a time when many substantial trophies of Irish agitation were being secured for -the good of Ireland, and the outlook was everywhere brightening. To what extent theaa auspicious surroundings will undergo a change for the worse no one can tell, but that Ireland's condition will be made vastly worse few will doubt. The surmise that the assagi nations were committed by the enemies of Ireland has much to give it credence. The late policy of Gladstone has "bt -en violently opposed, and the resignation of .Förster tells with special emphasis how dt ly seated the opposition had become in the m inds of a large party. That the friends of Ireland shouid have murdered men who represented the new departure In Gladstone's pa ty does not appear probable, and jet it U altao i certain that the penalties of J

the outrage will be visited upon those who

are not responsible for it. To make matters still worse for Ireland' cause, it is doubtful if the red-handed murderers will be caught, and thus the causes which led to the crime may never be known. News from England will be looked for with more than usual concern, especially by the well-wisher of Ireland. POI,AlR EXPLORATIONS. A great ne,ny people would feel a thrill of satisfaction if they could be assured that the last Polar Sea crank bad become con vinced of the extreme folly of searching for the Korth Tole and the fabled open sea. But no such assurance can be given. As a conseouence. the people may as well get ready for more Arctic navigation nonsense, with all of its harrowing details cf suffer ing and death. How Boon the next expedi tion will be fitted 'out no one can teli, but thai the folly will be long delayed is by no means probable. The fate of the cannette, the sufferings of her heroic crew and the death by cold and starvation of so many of them ought, in the nature of things, to deter others from such perilous adventures, but such is not likely to be the case. On the contrary, the probabilities are that the moment Government or individual will furnish the required funds to fit out a North Pole excursion the required number of rugged fellows will be found to brave all the dancers and take the chances. But we do not believe that Governments or indl viduals should loneer countenance such foolhardy exploit: by furnishing money. So fai as our reading extends Polar explor ing expeditions have been of little, if of any, service to the world. Reports are all about the same ice. Ice, ice; sickness, starvation, death ; seals, walruses, white bears, desolation. What is the use of exploring lands or seas beyond the line of vegetation, animal or bird life, where by. the fiatof the Creator hu man being? can't live? In such lands or seas there are no trophies worth the cost of ob taining them, and science has no right to place a false estimate upon them. Take all the explorers who have sought to reach the North Pole or the open sea supposed to surround it, and what have they accomplished? So far as the good of the world is concerned, nothing at all. They have kept alive vague theories, wild ambitions, hopes and expectations, that have led hundreds of men to death, and the probability is that others still will be found ready to go North to be preserved on ice. Who of all the sensible men and women of the world cares a cent for Wrangel Land, or Franz Joseph Land, or Jeannette Island, or any other real or mythical land about which Arctio explorers have written so much and so learnedly? True, there is great desire to read such accounts, and those who survive Arctic voyages are for the time lionized; but when all their discoveries and observations are massed, they do not compensate for the terrible sufferings which Actic voyages entail. Just now the public mind is absorbed with accounts of the loss of the Jeannette, and the common sense view of the subject is that the expedition ought never to have sailed out of the Golden Gate. De Long and the men who left here with him were found dead in their shrouds of ice, and the probabilities are that Lieutenat Chip and his men have met with a similar fate. A Washington dispatch savs: "General J. B. Weaver has written a letter to Senator Voorhees. proposing a coalition between the Democratic and Greenback parties. The indecent, unprincipled, shameless, open tratheking iu their votes ana "honor" constantly carried on by the leaders of the so-called Greenback party is a scandal that would be infamous, if it were not so amusing. There has never been a dav siuce the Greeu'oack party was formed that the men wlw assumed to lead it were not in the market. They could always be bought by either party that would pay tne price asuea. liet the Democratic party have the monopoly of all negotiations. Journal. Recent elections seem to have rendered our Republican contemporaries i.l-natured, sour and abusive beyond precedent. It is said whom the gods would destroy they first make mad. The Republican press of this State and the bosses of the party generally are mad and ßeem to vie with each other in snapping and snarling in every direction. One of the organs (the News) takes a tilt at the man of color, discoursing to the effect that his real place is with the Democratic party, and nothing else is expected than that he will land there. Most of them more or less "damn the Dutch." The men who deal in liquors are unceremoniously branded and kicked out to the dogs. All seeming to forget that their "goody" Republican party never could have carried a single election in this city without the support of the very element (late of that party) which they are now so vigorously ostracising and damning. It is under the destroying influence of madness made available by the gods that the stupid folly reerred to, including the above Journal effusion, is born. A lot of party leaders which so recently humiliated and sold their party for the price of Mahone and repudiation, would do well in their state of disgrace and the dissolution and decay of their party, to be silent in the face of decent, honest people. The quieter the beter. Better give the charitable veil of oblivion a chance to mantle and hide them from the faces of men as the process of decay goes on. Rev. Myron Reed, in hiss-rmon last Sunday, well said: "A great party, suggested by the abolitionists and made by the War, Is now dissolving because it has no princi ples." It would indeed seem as if nothing short of demoniac desperation, born of despair, would move the Republican leaders to the course they are pursuing in their abuse and general treatment of their late allies; or rather, we should say, parts of the party a8 lately constituted. Of a piece and with quite as littlesen'e are such mad slanders and abuse of the Nationals as indulged in by the Journal and other Republican organs. Robesos, Grant's Secretary of the Navy, is one of the Hih Priests in the Republican Political Temple. He is now a member of Congress from New Jersey, electel by Republican votes and is a recognized leader among the Republicans of the present House of Representatives. The New York Sun has this to say about Robeson and the Republicans: That brilliant satirist. Puck, has a cartoon representing Seor Robeson in the character of a foul and disgusting ogre, against whom the most reputable members of the Republican party, led by Judge Folger, have banded themselves to defend the surplus cash in the National Treasury. It is a very impressive picture, and suggest how deep a disgrace to the Reoublicins lies in the fact that the never undertook to guard the

I Treasury against this robber at the time when he was nlanderin? it of million

We regtet that among thee now repentant statesmen we 'do not aea the effigy of either Mr. J. G. Blaine or Mr. G. W. Curtis, who stood sealously by Robeson whea hi robberies were on the point of being stopocd years sgo, and secured for fcim the opportunity of continuing his malefac tions in safety. But it Is encouraging to those who detect public robbery, without regard to the party affiliations or social antecedents of the thief, to witness the present state of public sentiment regarding Robeson as Illustrated by this cartoon of laour pop a comic contemporary. . . Tweed died in prison, and Robeson is e more shameless scoundrel than Tweed. Tht.t the Republicans) will be on God's side. to begin with. Republican exchange. Woe unto you, Pharisees, hypocrites! The Republican patty dying of the Accumulated iniquities of twenty years seems just to have discovered that it has a conscience. Let the people continue to wback it over the head as they recently did in this city and possibly it mar in time become decent. The kind of purifier which sent Rau and Harvey to the rear is a thousand times more efficient for good than such thin devices as Colonel IIolloway's $250 remedy recently proposed. When Republican editors and officials begin to cry unto the Lord the people may be sure they are on the right track. Let intelligent liberal, honest people keep right on as they have started, until such canting hypocrisy is, if possible, converted into real conscience stricken sin sickness. The Democrats of Fort Wayne seem to be gathering in the fruits of the. W as well as some of the rest of the patriots. 1 a the city election on Tuesday nine out of the ten Councilmen elected were Democrats, and the Sentinel of that city mourns over the one that "got away." The Republicans have usually elected four or five out of the ten. Republicanism, like the fruit crop, seems to have received a back-set this season. If the entire crop would fail it would be a good thing for the country. GEXI RAL NOTES. Grant was sixty last Thursday. Ge.xeral Hancock rises at 4 a. m. General Toombs is growing blind.

BELATED SOCIETY KliWS. The President's Old Flame, to Whom He Sent the First Telegram of Ills Nomina tion, Ktc, F.tc. Special to the Sentinel: Cape Vincent, N. Y., May 4. A bit of society news Is current heie which has not yet found its way into the columns of the daily press, but which may be relied upon as the general belief in this village. It meyiiotbe knowa to all your readers that Ca:e Vincent in summer is a quite noted place of reiort on the S". Ltwrence, jut at ths head of the Thousand Islands.and one of the termini of the Rome ad Watcrtown Railway, where steamer cjnnectlocs are madeforall points dawn tho river. Tho "Cape," as it is commonly called, U a very old settled place, naiced after ono Count Vincent do Paul, a French noblemau of the old retime, who tttt'.rd fcere after the French Revolution and proscription. Some few Alsace Lorraine families also Cime here, and among o thers a family bearing the old aristocratic name of Van Vechten, the last survivor of which died soma year3 agr, leaving a wesltliy widow r rare accomplishments and a small family of children, among whom are two boys, no7 young men. Mrs. Vtn Vcchten resides in New York, living in elegant stylo aud moving in the first circles. It was known that sho was an intimate acquaintance of Chester A. Vrihnr, but it was not known how intimate until the time of the ChkM jo Convention, whew It transpired thr.t the first telezram sent by the then noaiiaco and chosea candidate for the Vice Presidency was transmitted to the lovely and ac complished widow Vaa Vechten. The fact was made known to an Intimate friend by one of the young van ecntcns, wno usually spend their summers at the "Cape." A little skillful questioning of the young man developed the fact that the distinguished candidate was engaged to his mother. Intimato acquaintances of the widow hinted at the afiair ia their letters and the soft im; eachment Wis "not denied, and it was con fidently expected that the afTtir would "come oft"" very sooa after the electisn. From some cause, however, it was delayed. and then came the Inauguration, and then the assassination of the President, with II Its terrible weeks of uncertainty, and thea the Vice Prcsidont takes the oath and is President of tho United States; and tho widow Van Vechten s the widow Vaa Vechten f tUl. The solution of the problem lies in the fact, undoubtedly, that the two young gentlemen who bear the clastic name of Vaa Vechtea have, durinz years of idle ness, accustomed to no control but their own; sweet will, and having unlimited cash at their disposal, acquired habits whlcL, to sty the least, would reflect no credit upon the occupants of the Presidential Mansion, and hence the once immi nent wedding seems to have been indefinitely postponed. At all events such is the view taken of the case by the elite of Cape Vincent, whose acquaintance with the lady gives to tbe story an air of authority. WASHINGTON. Congress nt Last Kewnrds the "Mitchell Kaldera.' Special to the Sentinel: Washington, May 6. A favorable report will be made by the Senate Pension Committee on the lloti'e bill, pensioning the survivors of the mem orable "Mitchell Raiders." The bill passed the House without dissent. The circumstances which goto make up the merit cf this bill, aud the raid which gave fame to the men engaged iu the expedition, are vivid beyond description. It was the deepest laid and most daringly executed adventure ot the whole late War and the only thing that blears its magnificence is the fact thy, it filled to meet the endi it was intended to meet. Its conceptlpn and execution are njne the les brlalliant. The advantages were mostly obvious, and are known to thousands of the Sentinel leaders. In April, 1862, General O. M. Mitchell with his command of Federal soldiers, had proceeded south to a point not many miles north of Chattanooga. Before makiDg an effort to tike Chattanooga, he desired to cot off telegraphic and railroad communication south. In General Mitchell's command was a Union spy and scout named J. J. Andrews, a Kentucklan. This daring soldier conceived the idea of Invading the Confederate domiins, cap turing a locomotive and train of cars, dashing Into Chattanooga, cutting the wires, burnicg bridge and meeting Mitchell, who was to capture the place at the same time. The task was a hazardous one, and demanded brave men, good leadership and quick work. Andrews selected twentyone of the best soldiers of the command, and, attired In citizens' clothing, they started into the heart of the Confederacy. They traveled separately, representing themselves to be rebels looking for certain companies, that they might enlist. Their programme waa arranged to a nicety. At different stations, an hundred miles

bound train loaded Ith sullies, soldiers, etc., for the Confederacy. This was the train they had selected for capture. The raiders did not recognize each ether until they retched a Utile station military headquarter! for the Confederacy where the tndumtn Kit tbe tiala and entered a hotel hard by for dinner. The leader of the spies signaled his men for action. There were two or three engineers In the i arty. They quietly strolled out of the coaches and walked up the track to the locomotive. All the others of the Union soldiers, excepting one, without attracting notice, went to a -forward box car and climbed inside. The last mau stood near the couplings, two or three cars from the locomotive. Andrews gave a signal Thecoupling-pin was drawn, and tho soldier doing that work sprang up and Into the car, while tbe leader went Into the cab. The valve was thrown open and the locomotive and two or three box cars dashed up the track toward Chattanooga like an .arrow. When the alarm was sounded consternation ceized the Confederate soldiers They started ia pursuit nu hand cars. The run aways soon vanished. They supposed there were no locomotives in that part of the country, and did not commeuce their destruction of bridges soon enough. They cut the telegraph wires, but the hand-car with the Confederates kept after them until a locomotive was reached on a side-track, many mile3 f:ow Big Shaty, Ga., the stopplug point. When the Confederates secured the locomotiive the chase began. They hove in sight of the flee ing Union soldiers, who, seeing them, saw their mistake In not commencing their fiery destrue tion of bridges sooner. They attempted to burn the bridges, but their pursuers were near them before the work of the fire was well underway T hey tore np the track. The Confederates wonid repair the damages and rush ahead. Finally the two locomotives came into such close proximity that the runaways could only Impede the pro gress of their pursuers by tearing up their box cars and throwing the fragments on the track The locomotives were dashing up the track at the rate of sixty or seventy miles an hour. The Union soldiers sent back upon their pursuers ose of their box cars, then another; hut the impedimeut was only temporary. The locomotive bearing the Union soldiers began to tall. Waterand coal were running short. With the Confederates In eight there wus no time to stop for a supply. The brass bearings on the locomotive were melting from ex cesslvc heat. The chase was dazzling. Tbe Fpeed was almost incredible. Fiually, the Federal sojGieis were compelled to oe-ert their locomo five aud fl: e to tüe wood. In time they were all captured and cast into dungeons. Andrews, the leader, was hurg first. The survivors were removed to another Prison, where seven more were executed ou the gallows. To yet another Prison tne remaining fourteen were taken1 mey expected to be executed any dsy ior nearly a year. At one of the Piions a portion of mem. preierring to ruu me list of Cylng by bavonet or bullet tnau on the caflold. madeu boid dasa. overrvowered tne guards, etcsped, and after untoiu sunenngs, nnaiiy reached the Federal lines. The remainder of the party were finaljr taken to Kicnmond and conhned for mny monms in L,tLoy i risch. At the end of nearlv two years from the time the expedition was set ou foot the Furviving prisoners v ere exchanccd. and reached Wosnington, where the authorities looked upon thtm as men snatched from their graves Theywtre thought to be dead. Thov were oroten aown id nea;tn, and have never been rewarded further than iu an honorary way.

Land Frauds. St. Loris. May 6. A cicaniic scheme nf fraud and forgery has been unearthed by United States LiLuH-t Attorney Bliss. A hrm, under the np.me of Burt Miller, occupied a room at the corner of Fifth and Chestnut, from which thev sent out circulars offering Government land scrip for sale. x a auuionues maae a aescent on tne oiice, but the principals hsd flown. Meanwhile John B Cameron, believed to be a confederate J the gang, was arrested at Sioux Falls. Dakota, bv the instrumentality of tbe lelegrsph. He was taken to Yankton, whithera Deputy United States sheriff h id none to brinz him here. District Attornev filjss believes tliere is an o:iraiilzerl rii:2 who l.ave counterfeited the land scrip, and ?h;tt operations have been very cxtev-sive. He Fays they resize 90 percent, of vilue of icrip. and that the gang mnst have resized from ?:HO.(h O t. .7j OvO In St. Louis, he says, they succeeded iu swiu Dim to the amount of SaO.OtO. Further arrests and "de velopments are expected. Tue first Jnforniitioii of this scheme was ob tained through a telt-gmm received some darn ao hy George M. Cime, a prominent lawcr here, freu McKinney fc Seouerai, bankers of Sioux Fal'is, Dak., asking him to intercept and to'd a picture of fc'.fjo sent by them bv express to the alleged firm of Burt & Miller, this city. They also stated they had been purchasing from Bnrt fc Miller a quantity of surveyors' c rtiflcatcs of deposit'of the United States, receivable bv law at par at all land offices In the United States: that this f'.o0 had been scat m pay merit for II. C00 of this script re ceived by them a few davs previons, but their suspicionf having been aroused regarding the genuinessofthe sciip, they desired their remittance intercepted. Mr. Ciine immediately consulted with District Attorney Bliss retarding the matter. and from the iuformulion received at the express office and from other sources, a visit was made to the effice of Burt& Mihfr. which was found de sertcd. A young man who had acted as clerk for the firm was found Dd the oflice opened, but it contained nothing other than some cheap furni ture and everai of the circulars r? ferred to a'oove District Attorney Bliss telegraphed to the Land Office at Washington for information ns to whether any knowledge had ocen received regarding the circulation of fraudulent certificates.- The ans wer that came set forth that while nothinc was known positively regarding the certificates, sus piclon had been aroused at ihe larce num ber that bad then been circulating in the northwest, which had caused a 6urmise that something was wrong.

I have been afflicted for twenty years with an obstinat skin diacase, called by wme IT.

For the last three years I have been unable to do any labor, and suffering intensely ail the time. Every morning there could be nearly a dustpanful of ecalea taken from the sheet of my bod, some of tbem half aa larse as the envelope containing this letter. In tbe latter part of winter, my tkin commenced crackingopen. I tried everything, almost, that could be thoucbt of, without anv relief. Tbe 12th of June I started West, in hopes I could reach the Hot Springs. I reached Detroit, and waa so low I thoneht I should have to go to the hospital, but fiually I got as far as Lansing. Mich., lx re 1 had a sister living. One Dr. treated me about two weeks, but did me no good. All thought I had but a short time to live. I earnestly praved to die. Cracked through the tkin all over my back, across my ribs; arms, hands, limbs, feet badly swollen; toe-nails came off; finger-nails dead and hard as bone; hair dead, dry, and nfi-loss as old straw.
