It is said that a lirely thunder storm has the same effect in London aa a dynamite cxplosioa. A Columbus, Ohio, dispatch says that the contract labor system was abolished in the Ohio Penitentiary a year ago, and has proved a failure. A 5EW lie is tinder way concerning the President-elect. Some one says he eats with his kr ife. That is quite an improvement on using the fingers, common among some Re publicans. Air Albany special intimates that Mr. Cleveland has decided to look to the West for his Secretary of the Treasury. Suppose -we do "skip" Wall street just once. If the rumors of corruption in regard to Secretary Teller are true, the Interior De partment will afford an extensive field for Hr. Cleveland's reform measures. "Open the books" and "turn the rascals out!" Ir is understood in Washington that President Cleveland indicated to both Carlisle and Randall on their visits that it would be very embarrassing to him to have to call an extra session of Congress immediately after coming into office, and suggested that it would be a great satisfaction to him to have the work of Congress pushed along in such a "way that he would be relieved from any necessity of such action. Mr. Clabkson, Iowa's Republican National Committeeman, fays in his paper: "No limitation of statute can run against the crime of treason. Why not try Jeff Davis and hang him yet?" Mr. Clarkson appears to have all the fondness cf "Dennis, the hangman," for the "workin off" business. But before he gets out his rope for Jeff Davis we suggest that he get himself down from the gallows on which Mr. St. John holds him suspended as a liar. . Thx organs continue to whine against the turning out of Republican place-holders. "These occupants have been withdrawn irom the ordinary employments of life and are now unfitted to return," is the peal of the organs. Well, we have said for years that these occupants were beisg retained too long. They have been spoiled. But then let it be remembered that when the Republican party came into power it did not stop to inquire, before displacing Democrats, whether the latter were "unfitted to return" to the "ordinary employments of life." A New Yobk special says that when Mr. Hendricks was in that city he said to a friend that he was assured by his call at Albany that no man had yet been offered a place in the Cabinet, and that every statement giving this or that man a certain portfolio was simply speculation. The President, he said, seemed to be getting the clearest views he could from the leading men without making any promises. His hurried call, he declared, was due to the fact that he was going South, and would not be able to see the President again until just before his. inauguration. THE TREASURY INVESTIGATION. The debate on the Treasury investigation was closed yesterday. Senator Willard charged lown the Republican lines with terrible effect, showing the falsity of their pretenses, and that instead of acting for the public weal they were simply trying to manufacture campaign material. Mr. Willard's position was that the investigation had gone to the full statutory limitation. While we can not agree with the eloquent Senator fully, still it can not be denied that the thanks of the taxpayers of the State are due to Senator Willard for the great earnestness and persistency which he has shown in carrying through the bill which raises the Treasurer of Sta'e's bond to $700,000. He has won a great triumph in his successful management of this bill. THE CARRYING TRADE.

It was the floods of 18S3 which preTented Governor Porter from reporting his list of pardons, commutations of sentence, etc., to the Legislature. He was engaged in the antediluyian labor of preparing the report when he was interrupted by a summons to attend to the wants of the sufferers by the great overflow in the Ohio v alle v. All of which was highly commendable on the part of our good ex-Governor. But new let us get down to post-diluvian times. We pass by without comment a trip or two to Chautauqua, which was probably necessary to recuperate the Gubernatorial energies, and call the attention of the Republican organ to the fact that this list of pardons might hare been very readily prepared several times last summer when the x-Governor was perambulating the country in the Interest cf one James G. Blaine, Republican candidate for the Presidency. It "will be noticed, therefore, that the excuse which has been finally smoked out of the organs is remarkably thin in view of the virtuous rigors which' have recently nearly biaken them to pieces. Some sort

of a Ncah's ark is very handy when the floods are "on,'' and the organs with the ex-Governor seem to have climbed in on schedule time. However, we are assured that the Stats Printer has the list of pardons in hand, and perchance before the violets bloom or the daisies die it will be ready for the consideration of the present Legislature or its successor.

THE GRANT FUND. For the benefit of the discussion over the proposal to retire General Grant on a General's pay it may be as well to read what Mr. John T. Ferry, one of the trustees of the Grant fund of $250,000, has eo eay. It will be remembered that this fund was invested in Wabash bonds, on which the estate of ex-Governor E. D. Morgan is hell to a guarantee of interest to the expiration of teu years from Mr. Morgan's contract. Mr. Ferry on being asked to give a true statement of the condition of the fund said: "The Wabash bond3 at present pay an interest of something over 6 per cent, and are valuable. Their value in a few years will increase, and the investment is by no means uncertain. There is not a Morgan heir that knows anything about the Grant fund, or even in what bonds the money has been placed. Furthermore, the guarantee of Governor Morgan has six years to run instead of three. By the time the guarantee has expired, the bonds will be worth a good deal of money." Six per cent on $250,000 amounts to $13,000 a year, or $1,250 per month, or fil.GG per day. It does appear that even a distinguished man might live on that sum pretty comfortably. There is many a gallant soldier, still suffering from wounds received in battle, who would deoni General Grant's monthly income a big one per year for the balance of his life. THEN AND NOW. A venerable paper, bearing imprint of 1S40, has been furnished us by a friend that we might read a letter of correspondence of that year from his pen. He had been all the way from Boston to New Orleans, part of the distance by rail, part by stage and the remainder by river boats. "Think of it!" is an exclamation of his letter, "I have traveled 1,800 miles in twelve days and stopped three times. What strides of progress our country has made. I predict that some day one can traverse the entire distance from Boston to New Orleans within eight days." The personal letter which accompanies the paper Eay s : "You will doubtless smile at my prophecy of thirty-six years ago for another reason than did your father, who was my friend; he did not think the feat could be accomplished." The paper referred to makes editorial comment on its New Orleans correspondence, in the course of which it remarks: "Truly, it is a fast age we are living in." We wonder what a Boston man in our day would think of being twelve days, or even eight, between his city and the World's Exposition. The line of travel which did not land him in the Crescent City within three days would be pronounced so slow as to be unworthy of patronage; and yet, the editor of 1849 thought "it was a fast age he was living in." If we consider the tedlouanesa and inconvenience of travel in that era of railroading, what an impatient people we find ourselves to be. It teems almost ungrateful for any in our day to complain of slowness in travel. But the Cincinnati merchant breakfasting at home who is not in Chicago, over 300 miles distant, for an early supper, will believe himself wronged by the railroad. The three to six months across the plains, for the mover from Boston to California in 1840, has been reduced to less than seven days, and yet the tourist calls it a tedious ride. An Indiana Congressman and his wife, thirty-five years ago, required from six to eight day: to make the trip from their home to Washington. But a daughter of theirs, when starting for the capital city a few weeks since in a palace sleeping car, expressed horror of the tedious ride (of twenty-three hours) ahead of her. It is ours that is the fatt age, but still it hardly keeps pace with our desire for speed. And perhaps thirty six years hence our day will be looked back to as a slow one, just as we lock at the year 1849. HEREIN ARE WE JUSTIFIED. A few, though only a few, of the Sentinel's party friends have criticised its attitude toward the State Treasury investigation. Since honest men may honestly disagree there need be no uncharitable indulgences from either side in this controversy. Our position was actuated by a desire to forward the interests of the State and of the Democratic party in the State. Our judgment was and is that the Treasurer would better be vindicated by an exhibition that the funds of which he is the trustee are safely in hand than by a refusal to make that showing. When the matter was transferred from a mere affair of political or personal spite on the part of the lata Republican Executive against the Treasurer to an issue made by the Republicans in tha Legislature we believed the true policy of the Democracy to be the showing up ol the falsity of the Republican calumnies. When the discussion had become public property and was being agitated throughout the State we held it the right of the taxpayers to be fully apprised of the condition of the Treasury. It was not for the gratification of the amilants of the Democratic officer, whom the Sentinel had zealously supported throughout his first and last candidacy, but for the humiliation cf those assailants, that we counseled the exhibition which should show their call for investigation only partisan and malicious. If our critics please, the Democratic party of Indiana consists of something more than any one man or any dczen men. It comprises a hoit of taxpayers, honest citizens, industrious laboring men, manufacturers, merchants and capitalists throughout the entire State. It comprises also certain prin ciples of popular rights and public hoaesty upon the platform of which its armies ralWied during the late campaign, and in the names of which it demanded tbe overthrow of the Republican party and its own ascension to the management of Governmental aCaiii. It was In behalf of this grand party at large that the Sentinel has plead for such a complste refutation of the false accusations against one of its chosen official that no slur coald ba cast

upon the Int egrity of the Democracy1! promise to give to the State and country honest administrations. We hold that the Democracy of Indiana was sincere In that promise. We know that the majority ot vote-s, blushing for the official corruption, jobs and thefts that have disgraced the last several Republican National administrations, are conscientiously desirous of a return to the honest methods that characterized the long reign of Democracy before the Republican party introduced the shameful practice of covering up or condoning rascality in high places and maintaining the occupants of them in power. Thus holding, the State Democracy would, if consulted, favor such accounting from its public servants as would have no groan upon which our political opponents could found imputation of irregularity or concealment. The strength of our party will be greater and its lease of power longer in proportion as our methods are most strikingly in contrast with Republican methods, which approved or white-washed peculations by Republican officials which made possible whisky ring frauds, land grant frauds. Credit Mobilier frauds, election frauds and all the frauds that have wronged the people of the country and disgraced our civil administrations. Our Democratic majority in the Legislature will, by strengthening the safeguards

about public funds, commend the party to the increased confidence of the whole people. By demonstrating a fearless determination to keep watch and ward over the interests ot the taxpayers and to see to it that public trusts are administered as for the people rather than for individual aggrandizement, privilege and emolument, will most surely deserve and win the continued support of the people. It is in this faith that the Sentinel ha3 spoken and will continue to speak in behalf of the Democracy of Indiana. STARTLING CHARGES. There have been for some time past rumors afloat in Washington City charging gross corrupt management of the Interior Department. The opportunities for fraud are greater in this department, perhaps, than In any other. The entire public domain is under its charge. Millions are disbursed through the hands of its officials in the In dian Bureau. It has been commonly reported tnat Mr. Teller was using tbe enormous resources of this great department to advance his own fortunes. Senator Hill charges that his defeat was secured in the Colorado Legislature by the grossest corrup tion. The Washington correspondent of the Chicago Tribune (ultra-Elaine Repub lican organ) telegraphs the details of the charges against Secretary Teller. He says: "There has been developed within the last twenty-four hours something very specific Senator Hill introduced to-day (Wednesday the 4th) a resolution which, while very innocent on its face, ia supported by two very remarkable letters, If the charges in these letters are true Mr. Teller should be impeached. Mr. Hill's resolution calls for two official reports which, it is alleged, have been suppressed by Mr. Teller. Some time ago great land frauds were reported in New Mexico. It was charged that fully 90 per cent of the land interests in that Territory were fraudulent. The Commissioner of the Land Office detailed two of his most faithful special agents to make an investigation of the charges. They made exhaustive reports and reported that the charges were true. They reported a!60 that the persons guilty of the frauds should be criminally prosecuted. Senator Hill called upon the Commissioner of the Land Office for these reports." The Commisssioner Bald in reply that Secletary Teller had never returned them. Senator Hill promptly Introduced in the Senate the following: Resolved, That tbe Secretary of the Interior be directed to furnish to the Senate copies of the reports of F. B. Hobbs and A. K. Green, Inspectors of the General Land Oflice. on the subject of the fraudulent acquisition of titles to landa in New Mexico, and of all testimony accompanying the sale, and also copies of all pipers on file in the Indian Department relative to this subject. Senator Hill bases his resolution upon charges made in a letter written by E. W. Webb, of the Las Vegas Gazette, who says: Though at first reluctant to believe that a person occupying so exalted and responsible a position as that of Secretary of the Interior would choose to retain in office and personally protect well-known and seif-convlcted land thieves and plunderers, 1 am now free to confess that in the ligbt of recent events there are very strong grounds for such belief. Mr. Teller has had before him for some months the reports nd testimony sustaining them of Messra. F. B. Hobbs and J . R. Green. Inspectors of the General Land Office, who have investigated tbe laud frauds of this district luiiy and oi tne southern district partially, and to my certain knowledge not only itcommended the immediate dismissal of certain corrupt officials, but also that criminal proceedings be at once instituted against them. Webb Eays that Teller has ignored these reports and has retained the officers in place, and that his personal friends are interested in various land schemes of doubtful repute. It is authoritatively stated by the General Land Office that 90 per cent, of the land entries of New Mexico are fraudulent. PERSONALS. Gxnxbal Hosecraks' son is a Catholic priest and his two daughters are nuns. Mes. Ella Wheeler Wilcox is desperately fond of roller skating, even more thaa cf writing poetry. L. B. Hamlis, of Augusta, Me., eighty-five years old, enjoys skating on the ice as well as any of the boys. Tek5ts05 says: "Men are God's trees." Then dudes must be ripe thistles soft on top and slim in the body. Miss Cleveland, sister of the Presidentelect, promises to become popular as the future mistress of tbe White House. A Western paper says: "Mary Ander son's kisses remind an actor who plays with her of the time when he put his tongue to a frozen lamp post when a boy." Tbe Bishop of Mississippi, Dr. William Mercer Green, is in his eighty-eighth year, yet on a recent visitation he preached nine teen times, baptized eight and confirmed thirty-three persons. The millionaire who looks the millionaire mere than any other in New York is Mr. William B. Astor. You could not pass Mr. Astor on the street without feeling that he W8S a very rich man. He look something like Kaiser Wilhelm. He is over six feet tall, I ehould eay. and stout in proportion. His complexion is flarid, his eyes small and blue or gray, his nose long and rather sharp, and he wears short, gray side whiskers that lie close to his ears and a gray mustache that

clipped short, so that it will not interfere

with his soup. He walks up to wn every day from his office, and although he sticks his head out in front of him and is not particu larly straight, there is an air of exceptional prosperity about him that is unmistakable. Thx death, a few days ago, of Charles Downing, the pomologist, excites but little notice yet he was the most tasteful and suggestive of the men who wisely give their time and attention to the pleasant calling of developing Nature's beauty in fruits, and attractive garden and lawn work generally. Josh Billings, who has abandoned house keeping and removed to the Windsor Hotel, New York, is now about sixty-five years old and begins to feel the burden of life, irrespective of its probabilities. He has been lecturing twenty-four seasons, and has fur nished a New York weekly a half or quarter column miscellaneous contributions every week for the last nineteen years. Thxbx is no prettier girl in New York State than Miss Mary Talmage, eldest daughter of the Brooklyn divine. She is of a pale, classic, blonde type of beauty, petite in stature, very vivacious in manner, and stylish in dress and appearance, besides be ing a finished scholar and a great favorite in young society. It is also alleged she pos sesses all the Literary tastes of her father. CURRENT THOUGHT AND OPINION Apolitical farmer is rarely a prosperoui man.

Chicago Current, From among tue many testimonials re ceived we select the following, written by J. H.

THE HERO OF THE DESERT. EIB HEBBRT STEWART, BRILLIAET AND VICTORIOUS SOLDIER IK THE SOUDAN. While these words re being penned, a universal interest is manifested in the campaign now being conducted by Lord Wolseley against the Mahdi and his fanatical followers in the Soudan. In the opinion of competent critics the hard fighting is virtually over, the victories of the 17th and 19th of January rendering the Mahdi's cause a hopeless one. The victorious British troops first to cross the desert are now recuperating near the Nile, while reinforcements are following across the route celebrated as the ecene, for a great part of the way, of skirmishing, and at two points, of pitched battles which are among the hardest fought in the annals of bloody strife. The hero of the campaign is Sir Herbert Stewart, who now lies badly wounded in the intrenched position occupied by his army. He is said to be doing well, but great anxiety is manifested on his account. Tbe bullet wound from which he is suffering is in the groin, and medical journals are less Fangui:i3ot his recovery than some of the Ergiish newspapers profess to be. his achievements as a soldier have gained him an immortal name in history. To him was committed the task of leading a little army of 1,800 men across the Bayuia Desert, in the face of swarming enemies. It appears that his men were selected with care, and were worthy of their leader. Lord Wolseley is blamed for sending so few, but the success of the undertaking seems to justify his confidence. He knew Stewart could depend on the cool courage of his men, and believing that their number was sufficient, avoided the unwieldine3s which necessarily characterizes a large army on the march. The greater of the two battles fought on tbe march, was at Abu Kloa, where the British defeated ten times their number, but not without severe lo38, especially in officers. In this battle General Stewart had a horse shot under him. Two days after the little force, now reduced to about 1,200, those in charge of the wounded being deducted from its fighting men and added to the number of dead and incapacitated, encountered a tost of foes in a place favorable to attack, because for a time, owing to the rank vegetation and the peculiar conformation of the land, the British troops were exposed to a heavy fire without the possibility of an effective return. At this time General Stewart received the wound which will prevent him from taking any further part in the campaign. As soon as it could be done, provision was made for the defense ot tbe helpless, which seems to have beea accomplished with the utmost thoroughness, and then the fighting men moved off in the form of a square. After repelling three charges made by vastly superior numbers of the enemy their work was done, and next morning they returned to the friends they had left behind in the "zareba." Then all together moved to the western bank ot the Nile, a few miles from Metemneh, and between that city and Khartoum, There they are now, in an impregnable position; and it appears to be unlikely -that the dispirited Arabs will molest either them or the little army now crossing in their tracks. Communication with Khartoum and General Gordon has been established, and the object of the expedition thus far attained. LUCILLE TSEULT DUDLEY. THX WOMAN WHO SHOT O'DONOVAK ROSSA. The career of the woman who shot O'Donovan Bossa can not, as'yet, be fully related. Ehe came to this country last September, and has been employed as nurse in various places for the greater part of the time since then. She is cultured and refined, and possesses considerable personal attractions. Her complexion is very fair and clear; her hair light-brown, and her teeth white and regular. Mrs. Dudley Is tall and longwaisted, and neatly dressed in black. She convenes elegantly in English, and is mistress of the "brogue" spoken by the countrymen of her victim, also, it is said, ot Irish. There latter accomplishments seem to have led Rosea to suppose that he was establishing a patriotic intimacy with an Irishwoman. He evidently did not suspect tbat she was English, and indeed it appears that she is to only by the accident of her biath in England, neither her lather nor mother being a native of that country. It seems that ner mother wet an Irish woman. As everybody is acquainted with the circumstances of the shooting which has given her notoriety, there is no need to detail the simple prot she laid to acquaint herself with Rofsa's political secrets, and to shoot him. He seems to have given her his confidence, but refused to sign a receipt for cash he had not received. ' , , . The BritlBh consul at New ork denies having taken any steps towards defending Mrs Dudley, and so far nothing has appeared to justify the conjecture that she is actiDgin behalf of the British authorities.

On tbe contrary, so far as her antecedents aie known, tbey strengthen the theory that tb is an impulsive, morbid person, who has soPert-d from frequent attacks of insanity. In September, 1SS3. she was admitted a patient of the Hay wards Health Insane Asylum in Sussex. England. She had attempted suicide by taking morphine and administering chloroform to herself in a j ail way train while traveling from London to Brighton. Previous to her detention ia the asylum, which lasted nearly a year, she bad been imprisoned for attempted suicide. be waa discharged as more insane than criminal, and only four months after was received into a lunatic asylum, as already related, where for six months her suicidal mania was very strong. She acted as nurse in England after her release, with an interruption, during which she was herself a patient, the consequence of another attempt at suicide. Her parents are believed to be dead. She is rumored to be the natural daughter of a French nobleman, and the two children whom she lost are said not to have been born in wedlock, and her discovery of the deception which had been practiced upon her by the man whom 6he supposed to bs her husband was the origin of her mental B.alady. Her age is about twenty-five. Grow tig; Old. Is it parting with the roundness Of the smoothly moulded cheek? Is it losing from tue dimple Half the Cathlnu joy they speak!

Dr. David Kennedy, Roniout, N. Y: Drar Sir I am an engineer on the OM Colony Raiircad. and run the Fail River boat trs! a between Fall River and Lowel, residing in Tanuton. For ten years I suffered everything but death from dyspepsia. Often I had suca biiad:n Biet headacbes that I could scarcely see. I thin this was due partly to irregular bablta ot eatin?. and partly to the jar of the engine. Sometimes my head would snap like neuralgia, an! again the pain would settle in my eye, which would feel as big as a man's fists. My breath was very offensive, and my food toured as soon as it entered my I stomach. In fact my stomach felt a thorgh it were a gnat raw and sore surface, and what spouy it save perhaps you can imagine. Jn the summer and fall of 1S76 when we had the heavy centennial travel, the constant jar broach t on accute atlacss nearly every week, antf I thought 1 6hould have to leave tbe road. But I kept at work until tbe next eDrlntc. when I srew so much worse that I could virtually eat nothinz. and concluded that my labor, and my life, toa. were about over. Remember, tbat I tad tried every medicine I heard of, and bad been treated by some of tna best physicians in Tannton and Lowell. At this critical time DR. DAVID KENNEDY'S Fa VORITK REMEDY waa recommended to me. It was new to me, and with my experience of medicine, you can easily forgive me for saying that I hal not a particle;! faith in it. I bad taken it but a few days when I bezan to get better. Tbe raw and sore feeling left my stomach, and tbe snapping pains Left my bead, and soon 1 waa all right, and have been ever since. It is the only tuing that ever did me least the good, and it drove every ache, pain and discomfort completely out of my body. Now I kep KENNEDY'S FAVORITE REMEDY with me on my engine, and it goes wherever I go. Why, Ibell.ve FAVORITE REMEDY will cure anything. One nisht, a while ago. John Lartoa. an engineer who runs the main line bott train f om Boston, came on my engine sick aa death, lie was worn out with work, bad a high fever, and was to nervous be almost broke down rrytn?.
