If there is no law to reach a Lieutenant GoTtmor who Eweara in advance that a bill shall not pass the Senate, aid then, as presiding efficer, interferes in a revolutionary and unparliamentary manner to retard Its pa-isage, then it is high time to make a law, and if Mr. Hanna can not be reached then th breed at least msyb? stopped. The civilization of the century ha3 decided that a majority must rale. Hence there w no further ase for that type of bulldozer that the present Lieutenant Governor represents.

SETTING ASIDE DAMAGES. Some time since the New York Herald was sued for libel, and the Jury In the case awarded the complainant damages to the amount of $20,000. The case grew oat of a published acccunt of a large fire in the town of Edgefield, & C. In the dispatch a state ment derogatory to "one Malloy" appeared, for which auitwas brought and a verdict obtained. The Herald had, as it believed, a reliable correspondent at Edgefield, and pub
lished his dispatch concerning the fire with out the remotest intention of doing "one Malloy" injustice. The Herald eays: The essence of a libel Is malice. We had no malice toward Mallov, no purpose to Inj are him. no disposition to do him Injustice. We ail net kaow him and had never before heard of him lbe dispatch came to us by telegraph from a then trusted correspondent at that place. It was re ceived and publldhd cs news in the regular rou tine of business. Oa complaint of Malloy we found that the statements which he alleged ap plied to film were erroneous. To vindicate and do ju .tlce to hiin, as well as to put ourselves risbt, we acknowledged the error into which we had Inadvertently been led and published a con tpicuous correction. Notwithstanding such facts, a Jury was found willing to award "one Malloy" $20,000 damages. Fortunately, however, a Court was found capable of taking a proper view of the case, and when c-llel upon promptly set the verdict aside, remarking that "the publication complained of could not seriously injure him in the estimation of the immediate community in which he lived, while no person at a distance who had not read the evidence of identity volunteered by Malloy himielf would be likely to know or suspect that 'one Malloy' was James Francis Malloy." It is well for the people that this business of suing newspapers for libel is daily becoming more and more obnoxious. and it is well said by the Herald that "if verdict ho flagrantly unjust were allowed to stand every respectable and responsible newspaper ia the country trcald be exposed to similar raids and liable to be outrageously mulcted by any recklesaor unscrupulous Jury." The more this libel business is discussed the more prominent will the fact ap pear that newspapers, as a general propo-1 tion. do net libel men or women. Nawa paper publishers compare favorably with the DtSt men in any community, are 3 hoi: onb!e, aa thoroughly schooled in the propriclieä and amenities of lifo 3 the be3t of their fellow citizens, and E3 loath to do anyone an injury. It is the business, höherer, of newjpaperato inform the public cf public wrongs. If this duty is neglected the public has a riht to complain. It is cot chimed tbat it is the prerogative cf a nt wspaper to deal in scandal to play Faul Pry in matters of domestic concern or make known to the world family infelicities, but it is the commanding duty of a newspaper to point out aud comment upon all matters o! a public character. It has en unquest:oned right to criticise the acts of public officials ar.d gnjrd the reputation of parties and communities. In doing such thin3, if the presumption is to be that malice i the governing motive, and penalties are to he adjudged, then the freedom of the prcs is as effectually silenced as it is when Czar, Kaiser or Sultan suppresses it by decrees. The common senso viewof the matter issteadilygainirg ground.and the presumption is becoming mora thoroughly fixed iu the public mind that newspapers in making public the real or rumored derelictions of men eeek the public good rather then the injury of individual, and if the press enjoyed still greater liberty in the way of exposing known rascalities the public would be immensely the gainer. If the press had intimated what it had good reasons for believing was going on Folk, of Tennessee, and Vincent, of Alabama, would have been checked in their careers of rascality. Many a bank and Insurance Company has been wrecked end thousands of people ruined when it was well understood that the villainy wai progressing and that the disastrous climax must come. Such fact3 are well worthy of the consideration of ail prudent men. LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR HANNA. It would afctd the S?ntinel pleasure to speak of the presiding officer cf the Senate in language becoming his high position, but his course of late has been bo discreditable that we can not afford to prove recreant to truth to obscure his dishonorable record. No man of average regard for fair dealing can contemplate Governor Hanna's late career without blushing. He has shown himself to be not only a partisan, but a paltry partisan. Governor jianna nas recently oeen engsged in making history. Oar latent advices are to the effect that he is sthl engaged in the business, and we are persuaded that the more he makes the more infamous will history and author appear. Governor Hanna presides over the deliberations of the Senate of Indiana. In that position he is as deaf to justice as an unborn pig, BDd as stolid end as indifferent to jast indignation and fcathing criticism 83 a brenze jackass. lie cares no more for the rules of the Senate than a Texas bull does for a wire fence. lie has made up his mind to defeat the metropolitan police bill by the exerche of jrerogatives which he creates as occasion requires. He assumes that the majority ot the Senate have no rights which he i9 under any obligations to respect. He plays autocrat with adroitness and with an effrontery born of pusillanimity. The metropolitan police bill has parsed the Senate, but under the rascally rulings of Governor Hanna and his convenient lickspittles the purpose is to defeat it by delays and by flagitious filibustering. On Tuesday night, after a prolonged session. aa egreement was made that the bill should be taken up yesterday and be Jispoetd oL The spirit of that agreement was that the legislation on the bill should take its course. But it turns out that the Republicans intended nothing of the kind, a larking lie was in their professions of fair dealing, and yesterday their cloven devilfoot was promptly put forward, and Governor Hanna was party to theexecrable business. He has beefl told to his face that he had violated hi oath; that he was a party to! revolutionary proceedings, and had in 11 regards deported himself in the matte aa a vulgar partisan. If a Democrat maks amotion, no matter if it is in etrict accord with rules, Constitution,
law and Parliamentary usage, Governor Hanna declares it out of order. If an appeal I taken from his rulings be refuses to entertain the appeal, and thus the rights of Senators are cloven down, and the legitimate business of legislation is impeded. Governor Hanna deserves to be impeached. He should be entere upon the record as a man dead to every sentiment which distinguishes an honorable man from a poltroon. Bat bis course may be regarded as a fitting finale of official life, the result of such methods as Dorsey introduced into a campaign that spawned him into the position he now degrades. A HIGH-HANDED CONSPIBACY. The Governor, Lieutenant Governor and the Republican members of the Senate have entered into a conspiracy to defeat legislation. For two days legislation has been completely blocked in the Senate by the arbitrary, outrageous and we might say infamous rulings of the President, the Lieutenant
Governor. He has refused to recognize Democrats he has refused to grant appeals from his nnjust decisions, but has played the role of dictator with a high hand. No such proceedings have ever been wit nessed in a legislative body as have taken place in the Senate in the last twenty-four hours, and all for the purpose of obstructing the will of the people. People of Indiana think of Governor and Lieutenant Governor b;asting upon the street corners that a bill enacted by the law-making power of the State should never become a law. Think of a Lieuienant Governor boasting that a bill passed by the House and pending iu the Senate should never be passed by the latter b idy. Will the people of Indiana tolerate such high-handed conduct and suffer it to go un rebuked? We say to these men, now that the responsibility of a special session is upon them, that they have obstructed legis lation until they have forced the Democrats of the two Houses, in order to maintain their Constitutional rights, to reFort to the lat remedy within their power. The Republican party must submit to the will cf the majority, or they must assume the responsibility of keeping the Legisla ture in s?siiou until they do respect the rights of the people, and submit to the right of a majority to rule.

Captain Ililligats at the- very time he made the charge of aid f-xtended by the Republicans 10 MiKian had on his desk in the Senate circulars, etc., sent into his District by Overrayer, Chairman of the Republican State Committee, urgin Republicans to yote for Million. The Republicans snpported him by urging his election and voting for him and it he had been elected he would be to day cheek by-jowl with Lieutenant Gov ernor llani.a aiding him in bulldozing and overriding th9 majarity of the people's Senators. Talk about ignorance and false statements. Go to! Get posted! The Journal obscures all the damaging fact3 cjaccmiag the Lieutenant Governor in endeavoring to cover up hie infamous and revolutionary actions of Tuesday night. He should have bsm impeached promptly by the House. The reply ia: It takes two-thirds of the Senate to convict. Granted, but the proceedings would have attracted the attention of the State to the infamous and revolutionary action of the Lieutenant Governor. He would have been convicted by the people. His successors would never have followed in his footsteps. The Republican newspapers are misrepre senting the facts in the case. The impeach ment would have brought them forth to the disgrace and discomfiture cf Mr. Hanna and the Republican Senators who aided him in his infamous work.

New York Sun. Axothir plaster castof a human form has lately been taken from the mould left In the ashes of FornpeiL From the place and posture it is evident that the man was overtaken by the eshes while endeavoring to escape, and was suffocated. The figuie is lying on Its back, the hesd is bent backwaid, and the skull is perfectly preserved. The open Hps disclose five upper and five lower teeth, white and even. The left arm Is half raised and the fingers one half shut; the right arm is pressed against the body and ihe closed fist rests on the stomach. Two rather email keys were found near the body. A beautiful Jeweps, of Berlin, became engag ed to a prominent youc; s.xIety man, who was a member of the Lutheran Church. The formal marriage contract stipulated that should any Im pediment arise to prevent the marriage, the tum of 90,000 marks should be forfeited to the Injured party. The lady, wishing to give her lover an agrreeable surprise, secretly joined tho Lutheran Church. The man in the meanwhile found a richer heiress who was willing to marry him. He then not only made his financee'i change of re'lgion an excuse for refusing to marry her, but has actually sued her for the 90,000 marks, and has recovered them in a Court of law. "The rumor," says the Washington Sur, "that Senator Cameron, cf Pennsylvania, will resign at the close of the present Congress Is revived; but it scarcely needs a de iltl from the Senatcr himself to stamp it as untrue. Even grant that he is weary of public life, as the rumor says, to resign now would be to hand bis seat over to a Democrat as the Governor end Legislature of Pennsylvania are Democratic. Rather than bring about this result, at a time when the Republicans will require every Senator they have In crdr to control the Senate, Mr. Camerou will, no doubt, bear the burdens of public life awhile longer-" The astonishment and alarm at the rapid in crease cf drunkenness in Switzerland has lately been farther stimulated by an official report drawn up by M. Challand, director of an Asylum at Berg. He declares that every year, on an aver age, 250 deaths a.-e directly due to aloohollsm. and that from 1,600 to 1,700 more are indirectly caused by excessive drinklrg. The workmen In Switzerland, who are very poorly clad, eke ont their scanty supply of food w Ith a cheap eau-de-vie, which Is nothing more thaa an alcohol obtained from potatoes, and very poorly rectified, but which is consumed at the rate of from fifteen to twenty quarts yearly to each inhabitant, axd thus constitutes a widely distributed National polsor. Professor Elliot Coües, the naturalist, who has long been an uncompromising opponent of the- Englüh sparrow, hai recently expressed the opinion that no steps now likely to be taken can end in the extermination of these birds. Whatever slaughter may result from allowing persons to destroy them at will can not have any marked effect, as they have multiplied to such an extent, and their natural increase is so rapid, that the loss in their number caused by any other means than a concerted and persistent onslaught upon them would scarcely be perceptible. Professor Cones says that someot has views concerning these birds have been modified since tbey were first Introduced, and ha expresses the opinion that the charge made agalLit them of driving other birds away la not so well grounded as it was supposed to be. So far as the other birds may be banished by their presence, the result
comes from the fact that they consume the food
which the ether birds need for support, rather than from any pugnacity on their part. Their preponderance in number over ether birds In any given locality is simply an example of the survival of those bird best adapted to thrive under existing conditions. The death is aunonnced, at Leipzig, of Wolfgang Max von Goethe, agraiidronof LheRreat poet, at the age of sixty-two. He is described as having been an amiable but very bashful person. He published a volume of short poems and a Ion. epic-lyric poem. "Klf iede." JOHjf R. Bediso, of Port-month, N. H., who was a member of the Twenty -seventh and Twenty-eighth Congress. 1S41 to 1845.

Oscab Wilde, it is said, has presented to his mother a half of the money out of which he swindled the American people. Some of the Eastern pspers give htm great credit for the act, and kindly admonish him to remain forever hereafter close by his mamma's apron strings, for fear, should he ever get a-sy from her again, he would be obliged to ask her to divide with him, that he might get back to ber. It Is related of Charles Kodier that be went one day in Paiis from one dealer in second-hand books to another, trylnjz to complete a collection. Iu the box belonging to a shabby little old mas at the corner oi the Pont des Arts he found It a Echrevellas of 3671. Fancying he knew what kind of person he was dealing -1th, he said, carelessly, "What do you want for this rubbish? 111 give you thirty sous." "Thirty sous," said the old man with horror. "Rubblih ! Why, M. Nodler " "Whit, ytu know my name?" said Kodier, highly flattered. "Oh. who is there who does not know the name t f the learned, accomplished Academician to whom we owe so many delightful works? Bat, thirty sous for this variorum edition, which, although I will not compare it with the Venice Aldines of 16C1, is cot less remarkable than the Amsterdam edition cf 1631!" Nodierput a number of bibliographical questions to him, which he at sterol in a manner that completed his surprise. "Have you seen," he then asked, "the new edition of J u renal, whica Acbalntre, the first Latiaist of the day, has J ust brought out?" The old man seemed a little confused. "The fact is, mocsier," he at last raid, T am Acbalntre."

The building is rapidly approacbiiig completion, and the dome is already in place." The Sentinel publhhed a brief telegram Monday morning announcing the burning to death of a mo-her and two children. The mail brings us the follcwirg account: The house owned by James Morris.NewBrightOD. L. I , and occupied by D?nuls Hennessy as a store and d -veiling, was burned on Sunday nlnt. Mrs. Hennessy and her two children. Frauds aged four years and George aged eleven months, were burned to deatn. ice body ol tho mother was found bine near the bead of ths stairway with her two children under her arms, and it is supposed she was trying to escape by tbat exit. Heuneasy aud his two eldest boys were attending service in St. Peter's at the time, and could hear the fire-bells ringing. After service he first learned the seat of the fire, and It was only as he approacned his home that he he beard of the sad fate of his wife and the children. The room where the bodies were found was only nine feet from the ground. It was not known that anyone was in the burning building until the arrival of one of the sens from Church. He was crying, and he Informell Chief Engineer Crowley that be thought his mother was upstairs Tae Chief immediately ordered two men to ascend to the up. per part of the building, when the boy's statement was verified. Secretary Folger did a good thing the other day. Here it is, as told by a Washington correspondent: Treasury employes are full of - stories about Secretary Fcl;er. One of them is about an encounter he had not long ago with one of the brokers who make it a business to advance Gov ernment employe money at a usurious rate, which the needs of the borrower ofteu compel him to submit to for a long time. A case is knowu where a TresFury clerk paid $500 is interest on a debt of S1O0 before ha nh.xik tnc leech ofT. It has been tee cutom for clerks in such cases to give an order on tha Department for their pay, aud Secretary Folder oetermiued to breast up this practice, in order that tne clei ks should not be s completely la the power of tbe-e men. Ho ordered that salaries ehonld be paid to tho employes. One of the brokers came into the beeretar 's cfSce to protest cool, impudent and confident. The Secretary explained quietly why he had made the rule. The man peiUted that it wss unfair, and fiosllj said partly that he aad no right to do It. The Secretary whfcled aro and and fnced him. white with anger. i have the right." ld he. speaking slowly in the effort to coutr.d his anger "to protect the employes of this Bepartment sg'.iütt the rspacttv of Shvlocks!" This last was deliverel with a terrible em oh a is. The man got up and slunk out of the ollico without another word. It took a very gritty sort of a character to carry out tho following programme. An exchange says: A Montana stage driver a few weeks ago showed as practical a comprehension of the maternal Instinct aa did the "nurse of ninety years" In Ten nyson's bauad, Ilome they brought her warrior dead." Ii was on the trip from Deer Lodge to M lssonla, and the cold was so intense that bis two paasengo , a woman and her little child, were in great danger of freezing to death- The mother plaoe. her own wraps around her baby, and the driver, after a time, in pity gave the mother his ovvjrooat: but her blood -as chilled, aud the fatal pjywslness began to creep over her. i hen tne driver had an inspiration. He halted, lifted the I woman out of tho stage, set her down in the

'Oh, my baby J" screamed the mother, shaking oft her lethargy ana dashing after thastnge After a two miles' run the driver pulled up, lifted the woman to her seat again, wrapped his overcoat around her and drove ou.

It seems that the devil is roaming, around there about as loose as he is supposed to be doing in wicked Indiana or Kentucky. A New Haren (Ccnn.) jpecial of the Uith to the Chicago Times Eays: Early Sunday morning, February 11, Johnny Glbbs, a colored newsboy aged not over fifteen, was arreted while breaking Into the residence of Rev. Dr. Stlfler. who had been his benefactor. He bad a dark lantern when captured. That day WUUe Wsrd, white, about the same age, wss taken ia for complicity In the burglary. lie divalged that Gibbs had been daring several

This strange story is found to oe stncuy true. A vial of cnloroform has been discovered near the house where Gibbs diopped it In the snow, and a drusr gist identified Gibbs as the person to whom he sold the drug. It is also learned from another druggist that Gibbs tried to DurchaKi chlnr.-iform rf him , - - . . M-i. uucitv cessfully. The outrages of Gibbs es tended over jwi,rmi;u)i uo aiways aueuuea him.

He is i t good family, and both boys had borne good reputations up to the time of these disclosure. They managed to keep their operationa a strict secret from their school-fellows. There are probably cases enough to sena Gibbs up for twenty years. The wealthiest Congressional District in the United States is represented by a Democrat, Mr. Flower, of New York City. He is very popular, as the following incident from the Sew York Tribune's Waähintton letter bhows: There are few men whose retirement from Congrees on March 4 will cause more regret than that oi jar. x lower, oi xew York. There Is so man more popular in CongTe&s and no man wac&e geniality gives a quicker explanation of the liking in which he is held. The cynic who said that the way to a man's heart was through his stomach might think that this was because of Mr. Flower's dinners, which are famous. It is a fact that be has dined, in the two winters that he has been in the lloui-e, nearly every Democratic memberof either brauen cf Congrecs, and if the party has, as a whole, shown no s!gns of improvement ia political manners and morals as a result, it can only be because it is beyond the regenerating (trace conveyed la a gocd dinner. There was an amusing Instance cf Mr. Flower'r popularity early in bis term, wheu he stood on his merits, cd it wm in nobody's power to say tnat be was liked because he had a big round table. A very deserving pension clRln came to Mai from his District, which could only be paid by a. special act. He was new to Uie cuntoms of tea Koure Cp he got boldly oue morning, and al:ed unanimous consent to tave tn:s bill packed. There was surprise en tome faces and Mr. Hoiman, the professional "objector." fidgeted about in his seat, but said notiiinp. The bill passed oa the spot. Afterward Holrran rrent up to him and falJ, "Flower, even I can't object to a bill of yonra, but I think I'd better teli you that we only do that kind of tblun here for the wives of Presidents." The bill went ttrough trie Senate about as easily, aod the pen sioner probably never knew with what dlsiiuguianed honor Congress had treated him. Speaking of the new metropolitan police bill the Jeffersonville Times eays: To bave a police force of a great city all of ne particular party is in itself demoralizing. To make fetlty to a certain political party the supreme reason for appointing a man on a police force is absolutely indefensible upon any principle involving a prudent regard for toe well-being of the people. There Is no honorabla method of reasoning by which euch a course can be justified. It is wrong from the beginniug and necessarily wrong all the way through, aud so llflgrantly wroi.g tbat every consideration of fair dealing demands that a remedy should be found and applied. The metropolitan police bill, now pending in the Senate, proposes a remedy. It proposes, in the matter of guarding the lives and the property of the people in largo Indiana cities, that the business shall no longer be committed to the hands of men simply upou the ground that they have been loyal to a political party or have gaiued notoriety as exceptional good workers for Uat party. Oar friend of the Lebanon Pioneer Jis somewhat mistaken in the following extract : In its issue of Saturday the Sentinel commends the sction of the stockholders of the Cleveland, Indiana and St. Louis Railroad, and gives President Marvin a good 6end off. Monday it turns iu back squarely ou the new rerfme, ana denouncss it as the scheme of a lot of Lebanon speculators and non-stockholders to embarrass the "legal" Board of officers and buy up and get control of the road on a foreclosure. The Iadianapolis Sentlael and Times will make no friends by their defense of the old officers and Directors of the uncompleted railroad through this placo. They evidently whack with Lee. We expressed no opinion. Both aides of the controversy were given a hearing in our paper. Tbat was all. Ihe Sentinel ''whacks" with nobody. Madame Christine Nilaeon visited General Garfield's tomb recently, and a special ha" this to say about it: A touching scene was noticed at the tomb of President GarSeld this afternoon. Persons who were in Lake View Cemetery this afternoon noticed a richly-clad lady peering into the vault door, the sentry standing .aside to admit her. It was Christine Xils?on. the Swedish singer, and. as she bowed her head before the tomb ajd looked long and earnestly at the casket, your correspondent, who hsd Interviewed her in the morning, came near. She turned at once, and, in her charmiugly animated way, with glowing cheeks for the day was cold and sparkliug eyes, said: "I wonder that the American people, quick to act and jealous of tne fame of their great heroes, should not ere this have erected a monument over the resting-place of this great man:" The following tells its own story: No. 1 South Oxford Stbkkt, Brooklyn, Feb. 24, l&sJ. To the Editor of the Herald: Enclrced find J100. my mite for the relief fund. I wiah it were 5100,000. Let none ot us be deluded with the idea tbat the great woe is stayed. The sicknesses, the poverties, the heart-rending safferings to be experienced when the people of the West return to their demolished homes are enough to rouse our deepest sympathies. May God save us from similar calamity. T. Dk Wit Tilmack. Eight you are. The Logansport Pharos says: Had Governor Porter shown a disposition to forget politios in reorganlzti:g the management of the Benevolent Institutions of the Ht&te, then perhaps the Legislature might net have been justified in talcing from him the appointlrg power. Instead of making non-partisan appointment, the Governor selected Kpubiiosns to succeed Democrats, aud aa a rebuke to tls partisan act, his power to appoint away was taken from him. The New Albany Press eays: . . In the Legislative, it Is said, there are four candidates for Governer, forty for Cougreas, and all the retarns are nstyella. Mr. Hanna ia entitled to something from his party. Hi has been the most snper-ser-viceable party tool that ever occupied the position of lieutenant Governor.
