The Sentinel and the Farm Guide for 81.33. A night dispatch from Brownwood, Tex., announces the death of Colonel Ed Wallace, a brother of General Lew Wallace and William Wallace, Esq., of this city. He was fifty-three years old and died of pneumonia. He served in the war with Mexico, 'and also in the more recent conflict with the Southern .States. A STRAIGHTFORWARD POLICY DEMANDED. Can those National Banks, which attempt unwaranted attacks upon silver, furnish any good reason for the!r own existence? It should gravely be considered if there should not be some se ere check put upon them, when they show so little evidence of their public responsibility. There never has been a period in their existence when their concentrated and powerful efforts have not teen directed t the destruction of property values, and to the creation of a scarcity and high value of money. In fact, thev have been the organized nucleus of a pool to control and enhance the value of money in actiye correspondence and sympathy with the more powerful one that controls the hor ded indebtedness of Europe. It is stated that the hostile attitude of both the Sonate and House, as informally declared, has alarmed the syndicat, and that it is seeking to reach a compromise. There should be no compromise. If the position of the advocates of silver is in any degree correct, it involves so many issues of public welfare that its adoption as our national policy is positively demanded, and anything less would be a national evil of indefinite duration, and therefore no idea Of compromise should be entertained. The only limit of compromise is the strength necessary to carry the plan decided upen into execution, and on this we see an almost unanimous opinion in its favor as a generality, and are therefore confident in the ability of the country to enforce its will without reference to the strength of the syndicate. We are aware that the resources of the bondholding directory are not exhausted; they have yet the powerfnl weapon of bribery, but the' time has passed when it can deflect public sentiment Vy the introduction of false and worthless issues; that sentiment is thoroughly aroused, and the sophistry by which it has been deceived has lost its force, as its duplicity has been unmr.sked by the failure of its promises. The popular party, who are now represented iri this silver issue, have the advantage of a definite plan. It does not advocate a double standard with only theoretical and transcendental bases. It proIoccs, a definite policy and also advocates a series of detail through whi"h it mcy be carried to a practical and successful issue. It includes not only a popular system of finance, but by its very nature it is at war with evils that threaten the existence of popular institutions. Its plan not only includes an increasad, prosperity to the business and labor of the country, but it also strikes at the root of the evils defined by the comprehensive word "monopoly." Contrast this position with the selfishness that underlies the policy ot its opponents, whose only tendency is to make themselves, as a restricted class, the beneficiaries of the hupe burden of taxation, and it will be seen that there should be no compromise, for the reason that there can be no compromise that would not be equivalent to a retreat. The detail by which the general policy of of the bi-metallists would be made successful, has been treated of before in these columns. It includes a foreign policy looking to a commercial union of the States of the American continent, in which the monetary values of them all would be reduced to the same standard on a basis of bi-metal-ism, and that this standard would partake largely of a silver color is obvious from the fact that silver is the principal money in all of them. It also includes the establishment of a navy, and, if necessary, the subvention of a line of steamers. The President should appoint a large committee consisting of the prominent manufacturers of the country and representing its various products, with its headquarters iu New Orleans, w ho should be empowered to personally visit the countries of South America, and study its wants and methods, and assist in establishing that eiitrnte ctrrliile which would naturally follow from our liberal purchases of their production -w This committee should be constituted solely in viw of its fitness and the interests it would represent, irrespective of any party consideration whatever, and our State Department should act in such concurrence with it that the methods or recommendations it would adopt would be followed promptly by a diplomatic actjn. There is nothing in this but what is preeminently practicable. It is sinking theoretical conditions into actual conditions and taking' advantage of them. This, or some similar plan, must be adopted if we ever accomplish any practical result. Any action in which the cause and efft ct are solely within the country, can have no result whatever on the disposition of our fii-jJm of manufactured articles, and upon which the prosperity of our labor and true capital depends, and which must be disposed of in some way outside of this country. If not thus disposed of, the surplus would remain unaltered with any currency or financial system. It happens that our surplus of silver, instead of remaining on our ban Is, could be di -posed of iu payment for South American p.odr.ctions that we are now paying England and France for in gold. It al.-o happen that the growing energy of South American Mates- would be immeasurably furthered with this very silver, which is the only coin in general use in those countries; anil the concurrence of so many favorable conditions is an assurance that if properly managed the plan would be successful. It thus happens that the silver question partakfs of two phases. It is a blow at the pretensions of a' class who, intrenched behind their ramparts of sjecial privilege, seek to control the entire property value of the ieople, and not only of this people, bat of every people. CJontrolUtg the entire finances of the civilized world, its sole en

deavor is to increase the purchasing power ofjits property money; and also to increase its gains by the advancement of the rate of interest, through the scarcity of the circu-. luting medium, to accomplish which all their efforts are directed. The other phase of the question is the direct relation silver bears to our industries and to the industries of other nations, and as we .have suggested, can be made an element of commercial strength, rather than of the weakness its oponents are so strongly proclaiming. Either of these phases is sufficient to decide our National policy, and together their bearings are so important that no compromise can be thought of.

A PRACTICAL SOLUTION. In another column of this Issue of the Sentinel is presented ai interview witb Hon, Franklin Landers on the disposition of the silver surplus and its wider bearing' upon the causes and cure of the commercial stagnation. It will bear the most critical scrutiny. There is an absence of abstraction on mere questions of theory, and there is no unprejudiced reader but who will be struck with the soundness of his views and the practical manner with which the difficulties are disposed. He resolves the question into two, one of them depending upon our trade with South America and its advantage to those States, and the other pertains to the commercial marine and mail and freight facilities that must connect us directly with them. Of the first hi3 suggestion for a Congress of the South American States and this country to establish the value of silver, and a general standard that would be current in all the countries who are a party to the congress, is one that can be studied with profit and applied easily in practice. That the commercial nations of Europe have agreed to demonetize a legal tender that is opposed to the interests of all the younger and debtor nations is in itself sufficient reason why those nations should unite ia defense of those interests and the legal tender values of the currency they have adopted and by which those interests are measured. All questions of currency depend mn trade. The trade hostility of Europe toward this country h only profitable when they can buy elsewhere, without ourselves being in position to retaliate. England has opposed India to our wheat, while yet we buy enormous amounts of tropical productions that we can buy a3 easily from South and Central America. It should be our obvious policy to oppose South America to Indian spices, medicines and dye stuffs. If we apply precisely the same principle toward silver that Kurope has applied toward gold we should follow the most manifest dictates of common sense, r.nd it is in our way to accomplish this thmg easily and effectually. It must not be presumed that we can enter a pclicy that is so opposed to European interests without a struggle. All the arts of diplomacy would be exhausted to prevent American goods from obtaining a foothold, and, in fact the policy would not succeed except in concurrence with the second proposition of Mr. Landers, to establish a line of steamers from our ports direct to South America. This must be done. It should be done at once. It is unwise to await a time when it will pay private investors to embark unaided in a struggle for an American marine. The time will never come. English, French and German lines would never allow it to become possible. The country is losiDg eveiy week, from want of these steamers, more than jt would cost to equip and maintain half a dozen first-class vessels. There is not now the trade that jvould justify a purely private investment; there never will be a trade to justify it so long as we continue to ship by way of Europe, and continue to maintain, by exhorbitant mail and freight charges, the very lines that are doing their utmost to prevent us from getting into this trade. We are paying foreign vessel owners much higher rates of freight and carriage than thev charge the dealer of Liverpool, Havre or Dremcn, besides an extra mileape equal to twice the distance across the Atlantic. We could buy at present with profit from South America amounting to two hundred millions annually, and we could probably sell equivalent to half that amount; and when it is remembered that both sections are rapidly growing, it may be seen that in a few years the trade would grow into mammoth proportions, and it would come about in a few years that any reasonable number of vessels would find steady and profitable employment' in the carrying trade without special assistance or subvention. The United States have entered upon a new period of existence. In its development it has reached a condition similar to that of Europe, and it must enter the struggle with Europe with the same energy and, in some measure, by similar mans. When the mere possession of a market is considered ample grounds for the undertaking of costly wars by European powers, it may readily be seen that we must exert a means that, if it "cloes not lead to actnal war, will require a strong diplomacy and a liberal use of money. We do not go so far as to state that we consider that the policy outlined would open direct hostilities with one or more European powers. All the battles are not won with bayonets. But that a certain adaptation of means to ends must be used, and those means entail a navy and a national commercial marine, and require an expenditure of money. With a strong foreign policy, an efficient navy, and strong line of mail steamers, in connection with the vast trade interests which would inevitably attract the interests of the South American Etate3, nothing would be easier to bind them to us with the strong ties of similar interests and of certain profits. Although we- buy of South America a couple of hundred millions annually, we buy it, through English and French factories, and it is the English and French who get the credit of trade from the people of South America instead of us, who pay a double profit on these transactions. It is a humiliating position. It is becoming intolerable. This is by far the most powerful Nation in the world, cither In population, wealth, or natural energy. Our own-necessities; the very stability of our institutions compels us to keep our great population employed. There is not the room nor the means of employment resident in our own borders, and we should not nor need not He Idle and pay tribute to other Nations,fcom mere inertia. For good or evil wViaustf move on, even At

the risic of conflict that we would prefer to avoid. We can not but regard the suggestions here noted as leading at least to an easy and practicable solution of our present difficulties. In fact, as a plan of action, it is the easiest and most practicable of any we have yet seen submitted, and the preaent Congress and administration can not do better than to act upon it, as it would avoid loth internal dissensions and commercial gangrene. Wherever it might ultimately carry us is not to be foreseen, and therefore need not be a matter of concern.

A CHANCE FOR WHEAT. Wheat is going to go up. The result of the calculations from the Bureau of Statistics show3 that but 557,000,000 of bushel3 were produced last season. This is almost exactly equal to home requirements. With the normal consumption on a basis of 0.000,000 of population, it equals 270,000,000; for seed, .V.), 000,000, and for general purposes, 30,000,000. At the rate of export that has obtained since September 1 our export would amount to G7,000,0u0, which would require Gf.000,000 more than we produced. We carried ever from previous years nearly 100,000,000 of bushels, and should carry over into next year not less that 20,X ,000, which would leave the extremely narrow margin of only llXO.OOO otbusheis to trade on over the 67,000,000 above quoted as for export. But although our exports of wheat are largely fallen oflT and falling, our export of Hour is large and increasing. Our exports of flour for the jear ended July 1, 1SS", were 10.005,000 barrels, equivalent in round numbers to 43,000,000 of bushels of wheat. Applying the same export to the present year, it would make the total export of wheat equal to 1 1.3,000, 000 bushels, which would absorb the entire 100,000,000 carried over and ir,000,0o0 besides. Making due allowance for chance conditions and probable errors, there is not sufficient wheat in the country to meet ordinary requirements, without leaving a bushel to be carried over. This must become apparent early in the year and wheat will move upward rapidly as the stock Is exhausted by the opening of navigation. In fact, ii we did not export another bushel in the form of wheat, there would oniy be sufficient for safety. It happens that the demand abroad is so slack, and likely to remain so, and the coming crop is so promising, that it will serve as a material check Uon -fancy or purely speculative prices, which would certainly become current if the demand from any foreign source were to become strong. THE OLD TICKET. . There seems tobe some indulgence in speculation as to whether or not the next Republican National Convention will renominate the old ticket, composed of Blaine and Logan. Unless Mr. Blaine emphatically refuses to be a candidate, there will no doubt be a very strong effort made for his renomition. If General Logan makes no retraction of recent declarations, it is hard to see how he can be included in this effort. When tendered the Presidency of the Senate he positively declined it on the express greund of personal dislike for its duties. As President of the Senate he would have been ex officio Vice President of the United States, and his duties would have comprised only those of Vice President. Hence it was exclusively the duties of Vice President to which he expressed a repugnance so strong as to impell him to reject the office, with all its high honors and rich emoluments. If he refused the Vice Presidency when tendered to him without effort or request on his part, how can he consistently make a contest for it in 1S33 by means involving infinite labor, expense and hazard? resides, how cn his party tender it to him again without either truculency on its own part or open contempt for his wishes? It seems to us that General Logan has effectually excluded himself from the list of Vice Presidential candidates in 1333. We regard the old ticket as out of the question. Logan will undoubtedly be a candidate for Tresiident, not for Vice President, and he will probably be found exceedingly hard to beat in the Convention for the first place. The President has delivered himself of an opinion on the press, which is calling down anathemas upon him from the aforesaid. Judding from the numerous specimens we have seen in republican papers we are safe in saying that in a large measure he is right. "The lying press," when it comes to politics will out Herod Herod in misstating and garbling for its tet cause. We do not consider that fair criticism demands any departure from truth. It is too true that the editorial columns of most American papers are more generally given up to little sarcasims and "smart" sayings than to reasonable philosophical arguments, by which differences of opinion m-y be defended or assailed. Like the bark oi' a street cur, they are more worrisome than weighty. Theke comes a strange story from Munich. The creditors of the half-witted King Ludwig have got tired of dunning him for no good, and have threatened to put bailiffs in his palaces and execute th royal furniture. This is amazing, this subjecting a King to the indignities of levy and sale like a common "butcher or baker or candlestick maker." The King's relatives seem to think there is something in it, thouch, for they have gathered together to do something to prevent the royal ass from doing himself iurther mischief and swindling more people. We would advise caution on the part of purchasers of Florida land. We have received a letter from a well-known citizen of Indianapolis, who is now in Florida, and he says: "The two blocks sold and piyself are in a 'tie-tie.' The words mean a wet thicket that would cost the price of two acres to grub out one. The ten acres of orchard lands are both in a cypress swamp, arrd I can not get closer to it than one-hale a mile without a boat." Karneat, act Ivo Democratic frl-nds, you can't secure Hiebest ewnpaper in Indiana easier than to take the subscription of tire of your neighbors to the Weekly Sentinel. The 95 will bring you z oplea. Dr. Wilkes, of Guy's Hospital, London, says of drugs as remedial agents: "We have enough drugs for our present state of knowledge. In spite of the enthusiasm as to the value of drugs, there must be a large amount of skepticism in the profession." Dr. Majendie, the celebrated physiologist, once said to one of his, classes in the University of PaU;

"Gentlemen, medicine des devilish little when it doesn't do mischief." A good many doctors put little trust in drugs, and all trust in care, nursing and diet. A rnoBLEM for mathematicians: . Suppose awheel revolves in cout&ct with the peri-, phery of another wheel of the same diameter, one being fixed the other revolving on it3 own axis as it rolls round the outside of the f.xed wheel, the problem is how many revolutions, or portions, will the moving wheel make on its own axi3? Will some mathematician or engineer or someb ody who knows, answer?

The foolish story of an exciting interview between Mr. Vanderbilt and Mr. Garrett which led to the sudden death of the former, has been put to rest by recent interviews held with Mr. William K. Vanderbilt, President Depew and others. There's nothing in it. A Harhisburg, Pa., preacher h?3 been caught palming off Talmage's sermons as original matter. These sermons are so widely published that the attempt mu3t always prove hazardous, aside from the disreputable result which always follows the discoverv. Some of the Republican organs continue to publish at intervals covert thrusts and insults upon the reputation of General 11cClellan. It is a bad time to display such bad taste when a man is in hi. coffia. I.n'R-tsv has appeared among the Scandinavians cf Houston County, Minnesota. "Oelajel Mai!." While the Postmaster General is flattering himself that under his administration the mails, out in thi3 Western country, r.re being properly worked and despatched, he is permitting himself to rest under an hallucination. For weeks we are told that the mails have been arriving and departing from this city not properly distributed and "unworked." and the same has been going into St. Louis, Mo., trip after trip, in th? same condition. The fault lies ia the incompetency of the present Superintendent. With a greater increased force he is unable to even accomplish the results of his predecessor. The fact is he does not seem to have the ability to distribute or assign men where the best results can be obtained for the ;ver:iment, and mismanagement is simply the resuit, although renorts on paper can be so made as to make'a good showing at the Department contrary to the true state of aiTuirs as they actually exist. We are informed that on a mail route, not a I miles from thi3 city, the mail for over twenty offices is delayed over twelve business hours every day. With a little interest and effort this mail could be delivered before 7 a. m., and yet it is not delivered until after G p. m. The following sad incident contains a pointed lesson and warning. It comes from Toronto. Canada: Addie Pavis. the beautiful girl from ?arn:a, who killed herself with crW;ie acid iu a commercial traveler's roia here Thursday night. k-!t the following note: "I'kar Fatiiek 1 heanl you were looking for me. 1 couldn't bear to see you.

The Boston Journal says: Next Easter falls on the latest date on which it lossib!y can occur, April 2.". under the rule of the Council of Nice, which decrees that Elster shall be observed ou the MiuOay after the full moon following the '.'1 st of March. Its earliest possible date is March 22. It is 1.VJ years since Easter Iay lias been so late. It wtll not asrain fall on that day till l'.M:!. Ash Wednesday will fall this vear on the 10th of March. The Columbus (O. Dispatch says: Sam Jones, on acount of ill hea'th. has postponed the day of beginning his revival work ia Cincinnati from January a to January 10. The urgent needs of missionary work there makes even the illness of one evangelist a matter of general regret throughout the State. The Jlacon Telegraph says: After a calm survey of the whole field, we are forced to the conclusion that the New Jersey mad dogs are attracting far more notice than the New Jeiey statesmen. But maybe mad dogs up there outnumber the statesmen. The New York Herald says: Were all the wisdom of the ages of domestic life since the keel of the ark struck, the summit ot Arraiat to he condensed into one warning sentence, it would be "Hold your tongue." The St. Louis Tost-Dispatch says: The great length of Senator Evarts' sr"eohs and sentences hhows that his oratorical style needs better terminal facilities. The New York Sun says: It is a great thing for a young woman to know Cnx k, and a much greater thing for ucr to be wll married. The Indianapolis Sentinel. IDaavilleUil. Leader. In another part of the Lsader will be read the prospectus of the Indianapolis Sentinel, which we unhesitatingly declare one oi the soundest and best of all our Democratic journals. It is independent and self-contained in all that pertains to the Democratic cause, free-spoken, true at all times to the faith of the fathers, and does not fear the devil. As a news and home journal the Weekly has few eouals and none superior we.st of the Alleghanies. We recommen i it to our friends. One feature of the Sentinel is its incisiveness and its prompt course in everything. It does not wait to catch its cue from any one. It is often far ahead of any of its cotemporaries in the leading questions before the country. We shall be happy to club this paper with the" Leader, both of which will be sent for one year for $2.50. T-oth will furnish all the domestic and foreign news and avast amount of most entertaining and instructive reading. The daily is the first to arrive in Danville with the press dispatches, several hours ahead of the Chicago or St. Louis papers, and should have a large circulation here. It is provoking to pick up a newspaper nowadays, and eet interested in what you suppose is a brief on sonic important topic, and stumble right into the diseases which are relieved by Victoria Pills.; the great Knglish remedy for Malaria. Arrested for Crimnnl Libel. Milwaukee, Wis., Jan. 4. German circles here are considerably exercised over the arrest of A. Schoenleiber, a prominent furniture dealer, on the charge of criminal libel. The arrest was caused by Christian Hitter, a rival furniture dealer who alleged that Schoenleiber circulated postal cards on which was written charges that Ititter was a murderer and a-thief. It is a fact that Kitter killed a man in self-defense at a Milwaukee garden alout fifteen years ago but was exonerated by the jury. He objects, however, to Schoenleiber publicly characterizing him as a murderer and thief, and sues for $10,000 damages. Schoenleiber was arrested Sunday and released soon after on $5,000 bail. It is said that two more suits for the same amount will be filed against Schoenleiber to-day by another rival in business, who alleges that Schoenleiber has written offensive letters about him. The communications are all anonvmousbut it is alleged that the authorship has been established. Canon Farrar has been a frequent contributor to the Youth's Companion for several years past, and just before leaving England wrote an eloquent article for it on "Obscure Heroes," whlcU wiU be publico, shortly.
