This was none of his business, and betides, Governor Baker and other high Republican authority said that it had been. However, we do not care to talk aioat that now.

na. lie was simply playing a game for the next nomination of the Republican party for Governor, with a pack of cards stocked by Senators Spann, Bundy, Foulke, Henry, Graham and Van Vorhis, aided by an unsavory and disreputable gang of local Republican bosses and bummers. They had stuffed the winning cards up his sleeve and down bis boots, and he made a dead failure at the critical moment. The general appropriation bill was defeated by the Democracy "to bring the Governor to a proper ense of bin position." The result of that defeat will be to brinR the Democratic party to a proper lense of Its position when. It goea before the people in 1'iSi. JouruaL This is what might be called the aftermath of the original lies started by the Journal regarding the appropriation bilL The bill was not defeated because of any actio on the part of the Legislature. Both branches passed it. The Lieutenant Governor had the impudence to ga out of his way and pronounce the bill illegal, etc, in stead of signing it. All that his signature carries with it is simply the information that a bill has passed that is all. In 1S31 the Republican position will be blown to pieces from every stump in Indiana. REPUBLICANS IN REBELLION. The Sektiskl has no disposition to un justly characterize the City Council of In dianapolis. Tho men who constitute tbat deliberative and ordinance-making body would be neither worse nor better by epl thetic criticism. We shall refrain, there fore, from the use of such adjectives as its coune would seem to justify, except in such cases as relate to its action rather than to its personnel. The Legislature of the State has recently been In session the highest deliberative and law-making body known tj the Conttitution. It was elected by a ma' jorlty of the sovereign people of the State, Exeicising it3 rights under the Constitution, the Legislature passed a metropolitan police bill, and, it became the law of the State and aiust stand as such until repealed or de clared nnccnatitntional by the High Court of Appeals. The city of Indianapolis is a thriving, prosperous metropolis. It is rapidly increasing in population and wealth. It ctaini about 5,000 people and occupies a territory, in area, something less than a Township. It is in possession of a charter under which certain things may be done, but the document, however formidable it may appear in the eyes of the City Council, is not as c olossil in its proportions and power as the Constitution of the State, and the City Council is not as august a body as the Legislature. Notwithstanding the force of such facts the City Council has openly and defiantly declared itself in rebellion to the law of the State. The lu dicrous phases of the rebellion in soma measure rob it of what otherwise might be regarded &s serious, but the farcical absurdity of the movement in no wise relieve the rebels of the responsibility which attaches to their purpose. Their revolt is ridiculous, without being dangerous. The insipidity of their incipient sedition brings them before the public bearing all the brands and ear-marks of feeble-minded people, entitled to sympathy rather than excoriation. True, His Honor Mayor Grubbs ein bring into the field his police force, armed cap-a-pie and commanded by Marshals from the Council and Board of Aldermen. The Station Houses cculd be transformed into forts, as also the engine houses; even the water-plngs might he in same way utilized for war purposes. We think it possible that His Honor tho Mayor we suppose he will be Commander-in-Chief of theforces might get a drum and a fife, peradvecture a bugle, possibly a whole b'ass band; if so, we fail to see any giod reason why General Grubbs and his Captains, Majors, Colonels and Generals may not inaugurate war with a fair share of pomp and circumstance, and possi bly capture the State. General Grubbs might bring into the field his rock-pile reeervesand his street cleaning cohort?. These men, armed with Loe3 and picks, sledges and crowban, led on by plumed knights, mounted upon gaily caprisoned mules, followed by tha veterms of the force, street cleaners aad stonx-pile artists, would be a formidable army. What could three Police Commissioners do to drive back such an army of rebels' I a due time, we bhail toe. Meanwhile the Mayor can play "plumed knisht," his Marshals can effervesce like to msny b:ttle-s of s'eger pop, and warm the atmosphere with the hot breath cf their indignation. They will finally subside. The law will triumph. Indianapolis will be rescued from the grasp of designing demogogues and the State will triumph. i O 9 One of the rncut delicious titbits of the kind that ever came under onr notice is the following from Siturday's Journal: The apprehensions of the frienöj of the Society were qnietcl and the matter mtlsfactorT.y a1juste1 by the Governor' insertion of the nomi-cjlou, which Le uses with a wise dlicrimüiiijn. The Governor of Indiana "monkeying" with a semi colon, boldly and artistically thrown upon canvass, would doubtless create quite as 'much commotion aa one of Wiggins' storm prophecies. The intimates of the Governor say that he passes hours In changing the positions of periods and commas in a macuicript, and (hat he I3 never so happy as when crossing "t's" or dotting "i's." This, we confess. Is a new revelation in our " Governor's character. We trust that if onr grand benevolent orders Can be protected in anywise by the shifting of a f cmi-colon, then let the Gov ernor bead Iiis gigantic intellect by ill means ia that direction. The question arises, however, What right has he to make the slightest change in any bill parsed by the Legislature? If he can chng4 or make a semi-colon, then he can change a word or a sentence. There is no limit to it We say this without any reference to the bill in which the serai-colon occurs. The friends of the grand and good o.ders which it may or not affect, know that the Sentinel would not do anything to affect their interest except in the right direction. The Journal says the Governor "inserts the semi-colon 'with a wise discrimination." This equals some of the

delicious fooleries of Artemus Ward. We feel eo glad' that the Governor "inserts a semi-colon with wise discrimination." The fact is that Indiana ought to feel thankful. Few States have Governors who can "insert a semi-colon with wise discrimination." He might have put his name to the appropriation bill with "wise discrimination," but he didn't. That Lieutenant Governor raight have used some "wise discrimination" a week ago by not sticking the bill into a pigeonhole and exclaiming, "It i killed !" The "wise discrimination" used by the Governor in inserting a semicolon deserted him at a critical time, when the necessary expenditure Jof nearly half a million of the public funds was involved. This "monkeying" with a semi-colon on tha part of the Governor and the trifling of his Lieutenant with the general appropriation bill should go down the axes on canvas. In the meantime our genial Hoosier poet friend, Riley, might jingle it into rhythm and Beissecherz'i fall band float it out on the coming summer's breeze. "Inserting a semi-colon with wise discrimination!" excuse our smiling but as Artemns Ward remarked when his favorite tiger roamed loose among the conSscators of his show and afterward

turned up with an assortment of seats of breeches in his mouth, "it i3 such an amoosin little cuss." PERSONAL ANU GEXEUAL NOTES. The emigration of ncsroea from North Carolin to Arkansas has grown to such proportions that the Legislature of the former State has b&eu urged to apply remedial measure. Tm Paris omnibuses employ 11,000 horses at a daily expense cf f 6,000 for food. In 1SS1 these omnibuses carried 194,000,003 passengers. The horses cost 13,000,000 and the conveyances and harnesses S2.500.C00. . L. J. Jennings, the London correspondent cf the New York World, writes that emigration from Great .Britain to the United States will be greater the ennüing season than It bas been any time since the discovery of gold la California. Mb. Reese, the editor of the Eatonton (Ga.) Chronicle, has produced the literary curiosity cf the period. It Js an editorial headed: "Is It Right to Send Our Paper to a Negro?" It appears thft "a few of the white citizens" of Eatouton protest ajralnst the acceptance of subscriptions from colored people. "I shan't never forget it." said a little Chicago girl, when the Coroner aked her it she was sure that her account of her mother's death was accurate. And it was no Wonder that the scene ras indclli'-ly impressed npon the child's mind. The father camo home drunk, dragged the mother from the bed, slammed her abjut the room, tore all her clothes off, and finally beat her with a hcary strap until his strengh was exhausted. By that time she was dead. Aboct this season of the rear many people are asking what it is tbat dexrmlnes the date of Easter. The answer Is thr.t it Is the moon of Marc. 1. which Tennyson calls- ' the rearing moon of daffodüs." The old rule is lat Easter f hall fill on the Sundsy after the full moon which comes after the vernal equinox. That brings Easter this year on the 25th of March. In 181S it fell on the 221 of March, the earliest date possible. It will cot fall upon that day again In this or the following century. A band of sj-psits camped In Missouri. A farmer In the neighborhood wai palnf ally twisted by rheumatism, and they straightened him out with mysterious lotions and ceremonies. This won his confideLce. They told him that a large sum of money wai buried on his farm, but they did not know exactly where. Their Instructions were to bury all the cash he had for eight day. and then to dig It up, whereupon the piece cf the concealed treasure would be" revealed. He obeyed, and at the end of the prescribed time his 85 000 and the gypsies were gone. Every Englishmaa who takes a patriotic prIJe in the splendid examples of ancient architecture still left ti ns will receive with deep regret an announcement which we are enabled to make. The exterior stone work of Westminster Abbey, which bas long been a tource of uneasiness to the Dean end Charier, has now been found to be diaiatcgra'.iüg so rapidly as to be almost a 6onrceof danger. Of late years the Abbey has grown blacker and blacker, until It Is now hard to cay which of the two Metropolitan Cathedrals Is the grimier. It 1 this constant deposit of harmfcl particles which has been tilently doinz the mischief that has now become so serious. The de c'slan arrived at by the Dean and Chapter by tka light cf their profeaaocal advice Is, we under stand, that there Is no alternative bnttoretace the entire fabric of the Abbey. It Is a trick of oleomargarine dealers to put a high price on their commodity, which deceive the buyer. A woman at Rochester, N. Y., went to a store fcr some butter. She was shown two sampler, one at thirty-four aad the other at thirtyfive cents. She Inspected both very carefully by taste anl smell, and finally took a lot of the highest rriced. It was oleomargarine The other was first clsss dairy butter. She was deceived by the price. The Beeret ot tho matter Is that if a low price Is put on butterlne fufpiciou is aroused and it can not be sold. . Hence a high price must beatkei. A most remarkable electrical phenomenon man ifested itself on the line of tha Union Pacific Railway last Sunday, between North Platte and Sidney. The Influence, however, was felt pcrteptibly beyond those points. The rails were surcharged with a current of electricitr, movlDg from west to east, to so high a degree tbat bandcars standing on tho track were Impelled at a fair rate of speed by it One hand-car at rule got away from the section men next east. The Influence of the current was felt by many persons alorg the track, aud no little excitement pre vailed during its continuance. At a fancy ballarecently at Sydney, New South Wales Mrs. J. M. Sweet, the wi of the editor of the Morning Herald, appeared as the "Pross" In several pages of the paper named, printed In col ors on a beantuul white Baun. Every column waF la a different color, and each was brought out as distinctly as If printed on paper in the ordinary isne. The body vn represented with flags of the various Colonies all in their proper colors. The head-dress was that of Minerva, with the words "The Tress" in bold relief, priatel ia thirteen different color. The costume was much admired. The composer Liszt, having been invite! by a Commute appointed by the united press of Paris to take part In a concart at the Grand Opera Rouse in Paris for the benefit ef the sufferers by the fl.-od la Alsace and Lorraine, replied that be would be compelled, although with deep regret, to decline. Ills letter ends with these words : "It would be the sourca of much pleasure to me to take part in the performance, and nevec shall I forget how much I owe to Parb, where I passed my early years; but unhappily my seventy-two years disqualify mo aa a player on the piaao. 1 can no longer rely with confidence upon the successful nse of the tea ficgers that I have employed these many years, and I am, therefore, determined, because of my age and Infirmity, to refrain in future irotn appearing in public performances in any country. Respectfully, etc., Franz Lisat, Buda-Festh, Jannrj-y 23, 18S3." Op Mr. Bowen, lately chosen to adorn one of Colorado's seats in the Uaited States Senate, they are telling this story In Denver: Just after the Senatorial electron Mr. Bowen returned to his home at Del Norte for a rest. Among the passengers on the train was State Representative Costello, the Duke of Tlpperary." As they bowled along beyond Pueblo, between 12 and 1 o'clock at night. Bowen began singlag uproariously, hls;friends loliilng in the choruses of some classical songs as

"Meet mo at tho Croat Roads," 'Oh. dat Watermelon," "In de Morning by de Bright Light" But Costello never smiled nor opened his lips, bat aat apparently wrapped in gloomy meditations, while bis eyes looked wistful longings unattainable. Suddenly, "What's the matter with you, Costello ?" cried Bowen; "why don't yon wake up and join us?" "Matther wld meT" echoed the Lead Tille statesman, languidly, "sure nothing at all, Judge, but be tha howly Jabers, Ol'd be singing me-self, Judge, If Ol only bad yergob!" A stsaxge story comes from Columbrs, O., and is told by a hotel clerk. Not locg ago a gentleman came to tha hHel and registered as H. G. Chamberlain, of Chlcsgo. a short time after, H. G. Chamberlain registered there again, this time from Dayton. Then the Chicago man called for the mall addressed to bis name and received four letters. Presently the Dayton man came up and wanted the mail for tbat name. The clerk began to think a trick was being played, and brought the two gentlemen face to face. The one who bad taken the correspondence was Just beginning to scratch his bead In perplexity, as two of the letters were wholly unintelligible to him, being intended fur the other man. It was discovered that both are traveling agents for agricultural machinery firms; neither had ever heard of the other, and both happened to arrive at Columbus and la the same hotel at the same time.

The check was for J2.000. payable to "J. B. it.," or "James "B. Pelfor l," or, as he thinks, "bearer." and was signed S W. Dorsey. The check had a number of indorsements, showing it had passed through the banks. The writing and signature were so irregular and bad that the bank had a doubt about its bving genuine, aad. therefore, desired Reredell to give his opinion about it. Reredell examined the check and said lc had undoubtedly been written aud signed by A. W. Dorsey, but he must have been drunk when ha wrote it Tne check was paid. 8. W. Dorsey returned to Wasbii gton about the 1st October, 189 Rerdell Informed him of the doubt about the cneck and what he (Rerdell) had said to the bank people. Dorsey's reply was: "No, I was not a rank. 1 wrote that check la the cars, on my way to Denver, and that is why it was bally :itteu." A few days afterwards Dorsev cave the rheckbook to Rerdell to make up his mail account. The stub ef the 5.0.0 check was thero mirked J. B. B , 2.000. mail," and IlerdeU charged that to mail arc -tint as directed by Dorsey. Rerdell 6ays the cneck-book will show he is telnrg the truth, and there is no other way to vrify the statement, because no bank records the names of the payee of a check. He also says the mea f t tne bank must remember abutit,Eud tne entries ot the checks of AnnuBt or September, 1879, will show oneEum of SJ.OjO charge! agalubt Drrsey. The Government could not offer this tcsV.mony, oecause you can not corrobate a witness 0:1 a collateral matter, and besides, the Court ruid out Rerdell'a testimony relative to Belford. Whether tne cnecK was given 10 ueitord or not, it was a matter Rerdell had no in tcrest in Afterward, from a conversation between Dorsey and others overheard bv Rerdell he cam to nnderstacd that Dorsey, Eelford and a crowd rf friends were on a tiain going west it was proposed to play a game with cards and Dorsey was one of the players. Belf jrd was stake holder and cashier for tha crowd. Dorsev lost nearly all the money he had. and in a settlement witn Belford or with one of the winners to whom Belford transferred a check ia settlement. Dorsev was shrewd and charged his loss to mail and thus generous! y permitted Bosler, Brady, vaile s Co. to share his loss. The above statement of Rerdell Las thrown some light upon the transaction, and the in terested parties are having a time amonrst tnemseives. A CARD From "fx-Senator Dorsey Denouncing Iterdell's Statement as False. Washisotos, March 8. Ex-Senator Dor sey furnishes for publication the following card: To the Associated Press: I am iufcrmed that you sent to the country the villainous falsehood tbat appeared in the Star to-night as a statement of Kerdell's. The Ass elated Press being supreme ia its sphere, I am forced to appeal to it, and ask that what say te j.laced betide what the perjurer says. I never saw Belford on the cars. .1 never played a game of csrds with him or iu his pres ence anywhere or at any time. I never gave him a check of any kiad whatever for any purpose in tha world. I never met birr in my life except in Washington or in Denver, and then only socially. Herd ell says I was here ia October, 1379, and that he spoke to me about the check. I was not here any cay alter ine Uta of July, 179, until about August. 1633, and in the meantime I had not seen Kirdell. This story is one that flow from tbe mouth of a sell-adml.ted perjurer and thief. Rerdell never kept a book for me, never wrote a line in a book for me, never made a charge for me. never had a check book of mine unles he stole it No ca ck, no stub of check, no entry ol any name or character ever existed upon which to base thii infamous libel. Kerdeu s statement is tne natural outgrowth 01 the usual infamy of transmitted power and fairly represents it (Signed) 8. w. Dorset. Judge Belford, in conversation to-night fully confirmed all that ex-Senator Dorsev states above concerning the check story. He said he never rode a foot on any railroad in company with Dorsey, never played a game of poker with him in his life and never saw the check described by Kerdell. The wbole story, he said, was entirely false from beginning to end ia so far as his name was con nected with it. A DIFFERENCE OF OPINION. Judge tVylle and Colonel Ingeraoll Dis agree as to What Constitutes the Volee of the People. . Washington, March 9. In the Star Route trial to day Mr. Wilson resumed the intro duction of official records of fines and remissions from tbe Contract Office. The entire morning session was consumed in this tedious work, which was interrupted after recesa to allow the examination of Senatorelect Thomas M. Bowen, of Colorado. He proceeded to give an account of the devel opment of Colorado, the extension of rail way communication, the growth- of the cattle interest and the state of mail fasilities. The witness identified his signature to several letters and Dortions relating to Colorado T&itLce, aud said these papers correctly represented the needs of the country. No cros -examination. The examination of tbe Inspection Office papers -a as men resumed, wnen tne readneor the petttons nad progressed several hours tho Couit endeavored to bring it to an end, t?eclaring that the petitions filed aftar orders for inspection had been made were wort bless. . . . Inzersoll replied at some length.. He- asertei that the petitions justified the orders. They representee the will of tbe peopife tbei voice. "VThat people?" inquired tie Court.

The Court-replied that this thine of exil ing a law meeting the voice ol lite pev4e was doing injustices to tbe phrase. Mr. Mernck said so might tne voice ot the defendants have been called the voice of the people when they a'bed their share in the distribution of the National funds. The mdingof the papers waa then resumed and coatinued up to adjournment That 93,000 Chock. Washikcvion, March 9. Middleton, the banker referred to yesterday by Rerdell in ronnerjtiou with the $2.000 check alleged to have been civen Belford, said thi3 morning that th record of the entries of checks for August and September, 1870, does not show one of the sum of $2,000 charged against Dorsey, as Rerdell said It would. "Some of Dorsey's checks," said Middleton, "were yery badly written. Hi eyesight was bad,

and we were more than careful with his checks when there was a departure from the general way In which they were drawn. I do remember that there was a check of Dorsey's, which was not paid until after identification, but my best recollection is tbat it was for a email amount and not for $2,000." This Does Settle It, Dxxvxa, March 9. From authentic sources it is learned in July, 1879, Judge J. B. Bissell, of Leadville, won $2,000 from Dorsey in a game of poker on a train going to Denver, for which he gave his check. This is the check evidently referred to by Rerdell as having been given J. B. B., claiming the Initials to mean Congressman J. B. Belford. Judge Bissell is now in New York. "NUMBER ONE."

The Alleged Leader of the Irish Invlnclbias Cornea to tbe Front Kot Guilty as Charged. Nxw Yosk, March 9. A cablegram Btated that Carey, the informer, testified that one John McCafferty, a Calif ornian, ostensibly in London placing mines, had furnished the "Invinciblea" money and instructed them how to use knives "California style." A John McCafferty, therefore, whites the Associated Press: "Inasmuch as for many years past, I have been actively engaged in mining operations in the Territory of Arizona and elsewhere and am well known on the Pacific slope, throughout the Atlantic States ana to some considerable extent in Europe, especially in London in connection with mining operations, I desire simply ta inform my friends that I am the person sought for as 'Number One,' said to be implicated in the tragedy enacted in Dublin, on the 6th of May last Since my discharge from imprisonment by the British Government in 1871, I have not been connected with any Irish organization, or with any movement connected with Irish affairs. In fact, I have applied my efforts diligently, and to some extent successfully, in advancing my business interests, and if I mistake not shall continue doing so until I shall have accumulated sufficient to enable a constitution shattered by cruel imprisonment in a British dungeon to serve out peaceably many bitter disappointments of the past and any vile calumnies of the present If such denial can be necessary, I totally deny any thought act or participation in the affair referred to by Carey, or any connection therewith." Losdon, March 9. The Press Association says the Government yesterday mailed to France, and will soon mail to America, depositions relating to the man known as "No. 1" and other persons whose names were revealed at the private inquiry in Dub lin. Eight dapger knives have been found in Kugsend Basin. Here is a little anecdote that reminds one cf Lieutenant Governor Hannaand the way ne was "brought to taw ' bv Uemocratic Sen ators.

A Brave and Faithful Guardian cf Oar Homes and Property Beten front Imminent Peril. ' A very popular and weU known member of onr Police Force, who bas performed duty twelve years at the Union Railroad Depot, on Exchange Place, In Providence, B. L, gives bis unsolicited testimony. Hear him: "I have been dreadfully troubled with Disease of the Kidneys and Liver during the past six months. At times I was so severely afü cted that I was unable to stand on xay feet as my feet aud lower part of my legs were very badly swollen; my urinary organs were in a dreadrul condition, my blood was In a wretched state, and It had become so Impoverished and circulated so poorly that ray hands and feet would be cold and numb and so white as to appear lifeless. I could not rest nights, but was so distressed all over that I could not lie still In bed. but would keep turning; and ro ling from one aide to the other all night so that I would feel more tired and exhausted lathe morning than when I went to bed. My condition became so serious tbat I was obliged tostop work, and for thirty days I was unable to be on duty. I consulted the best doctors, and tried the numerous medicines and so-called cures, but rapidly grew worse, and was in a sal condition every way when a long-time valued friend of mine, prominent in this city iu a 1 irge Express Company, urged me to try Hunt's Remedy, as he bad known of wonderful enrea effected by It Upon bis representation I obtained two bottles o the Remedy and commenced taking it as directed aud greatly to my surprise in lets thaa twenty lour hours I commenced to feel relieved. I was in a awtol condition when I began to take the Remedy, and bad no faith In it; therefore, when 1 found almost Immediate relict, even in one day's nse of it my heart was made glad, and I asure you I continued to take the Remedy and to improve constantly from day to day. I took It with me nn my trip to Maine, for 1 was bouod to have it witn me all the time, ai d the result Is that I improved rapidly all the lime I was away.

eral weeks ago, 1 have been va duty every day I feel first-rate, and the ewellii.-g of hand, feet. and lega have disappeared, and the terrible backache, which used to bother me ra ire than all the rest, troubles me no more, and 1 sleep splendidly nights, and surely have very excellent and forcible reasons for speaking In praiae of Hunt's Remedy, for it has made a new man of me. I don't know what I shoald have dote without Hunt's Remedy; it is the best medicine tbat I ever took, and I very gladly recommend lc to all who are mir,t4hSI wl 1. k ...... w n , i . j : 01 we unaary urgans.
