Moody has asked Brooklyn to let him off, and he will begin work in Philadelphia October 31st, * ’ Martindale & Holloway paid $50,000 for the Indianapolis Journal and the material used in printing the paper. Hay*’ majority is now reported to be upwards of 5,000, and it is thought the offeial returns will increase it some. Since Geo- Butler has declared for inflation, not a single Democratic paper has charged him with stealing spoons. The Herald of Health armors nes the remarkable scientific discovery that ‘‘freckles indicate a defect in digestion,” which is something new under the sun. The Indianapolis papers are a little harsh on General Grant for not attending the reunion of soldiers in that city last week. •The late elections show that the old Republican party has lost none of its power, and that in the great contest next year it will sweep the country as with a whirlwind. The elections in New York, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Kansas, Maryland, Massachusetts. Mississippi, Minnesota, New Jersey and Missouri, will take place one week from next Tuesday. The Indianapolis Journal , daily and weekly, is now owned and published by E. B. Martindale and W. R. Holloway. The job department is still under theoontrol of the Indianapolis Joitrnvl Com-, pany. In sinking the foundation for the Edgar A. Poe monument it was found necessary to move the remains of the great poet. — The coffin fell to pieces disclosing only a grinning skeleton, “Only this and nothing more.” Robert Dale Owen has recovered from his insanity. They say it was not interviewing Katie King that caused it, but chiefly indigestion. So there is no reason why the King should not have her ow(e)n again.— Ex. It is afact that nearly all kinds of knit woolen under wear is now theaper than before the war, notwithstanding the protective tariff which prevents foreign competition. This is only another example of the law of supply and demand.

That was a shrewd strategy on the part of the Republicans of the country, when they caused the gTand army of their enemies to. divide in twain. One wing has already been demolished, and it is the part of good generalship to now concentrate and demolish the other also. New York is the new battle field. The Illinois Central Railroad Company have cards hanging in their cars warning persons not to play with threecard monte men Now, won’t that company engage to furn sh brains for such individuals, it will be cheapest iu the cud. A man who risks his money on a game of chance is neither entitled to sympathy if he loses, or credit if he wins. Mr. W. 8. Lingle, of the LaFayette Courier , and General Reynolds were out driving on Sunday afternoon, when a runaway team collided with them, and threw the two gentlemen to the ground with great violence. Gen. Reynolds received a scalp wound about four inches long, and Mr. Lingle was knocked senseless and did not regain consciousness for some hours afterward. At last accounts they were both recovering rapidly. 11. H. Dodd, the man that was arrested in Indianapolis during the war for treasonable practices, and who escaped from priseffi and fled the country, has cast bis lot at Fon duLac, Wisconsin, and for past gallant services the Democrats of his town have made him a delegate to the State convention to assist in selecting a Democratic Suite ticket. The laithful have their reward. — Ex. Even lowa comes in with a breaker or two to help along the tidal wave, says the Inter-Ocean. Republican as she always has been, she is more than ever Republican now. The Senate of her next General Assembly will stand about forty Republican to nine Democratic members, and the House will be about eighty Republican to to twenty Democrats—giving a majority of about ninety in joint baliot, against about one-fifth as many in tbc last Legislature. The official vote of Hamilton county, Ohio, gives the following Republican majorities on the State ticket: Hayes, for Governor, 1,295; Young, Lieutenant Governor, 3,251; Williams, Auditor, 1,372; Milliken, Treasurer, 803; Little, Attorney General, 1,327; Mcllvane, Judge of the Supreme Court, 1,144 j Thatcher, Member of the Board of Public Works, 1,578. The Republicans elect four Senators and ten Representatives.

Now that the Ohio Republicans have an effective organization, says the Indianapolis Journal, they onght to keep it up and in good working prder fo£||he| next year. In October of next year Indiana and Ohio will holjfeeetious whidbj will be virtually deciaive'of the Presidential election, to follow in November. — We say now to our Republican friends in Ohio, that the Republican party intends to carry thia State, and we want them to do the same over there. The attempt to lease or purchase the Black Hills from the Indians for mining purposes has been a failure. The Indians were too high priced altogether, and nothing now remains to be done but to let in the miners, who will doubtless take care of themselves. It was thought at one time during the negotiations, that the commission would be murdered, hot the Indian’s cupidity was more than a match for his desire to possess the hair of * few white folks. ! ' r ‘‘ The Soldiers’ reunion at Indianapolis, last week, is recorded in the papers of the city as a grand success. The Indianapolis Herald says: “Fully thirty thousand people, most of them survivors of the great armies that fought the rebellion down, visited Indianapolis Thursday and Friday, for the purpose of attending the reunion. The city was handsomely decorated with flags, banners, Chinese lanterns, &c. Bellowing cannon welcomed the veterans to the city, and the pavements again echoed to the once familiar ■tramp of armed men.” When you get into a tight place, and the necessities of your family require that you should purchase a fresh supply of dry goods or groceries, you go to some merchant aod ask him to trust you for them until such time as you are able to pay. Then, when better times come, oi you sell your produce or stock, do you go and pay him promptly, or do you go elsewhere and pay cash, and let the man who befriended you get his pay the best way # he can ? Perhaps, when you have the cash, you join a club and send away to Chicago or LaFayette and order your supplies, thinking you will thus save a few cents. Did it ever occur to you that the merchant, too, has a family, and has debts to pay, perhaps for the very goods he trusted you for and that you are acting the part of abase ingrate? Reader, we don’t suppose that you do any of these things ; but if you do, resolve not to do so again, for it is ruining your home interests. %

Old Settlers’ Meeting.

The Old Settlers’ Meeting was held pursuant to notice, on the 9th inst. on the old Indian camping ground, on the farm owned by Mr. Jared Benjamin, in Jitsper county. The meeting was respectably large, notwithstanding the threatening aspect of the weather, and the horridly bad roads. The meeting was called to order by L. W. Hinkle, and opened with prayer by Rev. Samuel Benjamin. On motion of the Hon. R. S. Dwiggins, Mr. Wm. Parkison was elected President of the meeting, and all persons being residents of Jasper and Newton counties for thirty-five years, or longer, were made Vice Presidents. J McCarthy and the editors of the several newspapers published within the limits of the two counties were chosen to act as Secretaries. The names of the Vice Presidents, and the length of time they have resided in the counties, are as follows : 40 YEARS RESIDENTS. Messrs. A. W, Bingham. David Nowels, R. Elijah, Mrs. A. W. Bingham, Mrs. M. Spitler, Mrs. Jane Nowels. 39 YEARS RESIDENTS. Messrs. J. Phegly, S. Nowels, W. W. Murray, S. L. Sparling, A. L. Sparling, Mrs. Mary Welsh, Mrs Julia Sparling. 38 YEARS RESIDENTS. Rev. Samuel H. Benjamin, Mr. Wm. Parkison, Mrs. Ann Martin, Mrs Rhoda Irwin, Mrs. Margaret Robinson. . 37 YEARS RESIDENTS. Messrs. Thos. RobinsoD, Henry Barkley, Wm. Barkley, Jared Benjamin, S. C. Hammond, Mrs. Phebe Nowels, Mrs. Mary Parkison, Mrs. Sarah Boice. 36 YEARS RESIDENTS. Messrs. Geo. H. Brown, Joseph Spar- ' Kog--35 YEARS RESIDENTS. Messrs. Thos. R. Barker, Nathaniel Wyatt, Willis J. Wright, Wm. Daugherty. Mrs. Parmenia Cockrell, Mrs. Minerva Wright, Mrs. Elizabeth Benjamin. Dr. Ritchie was the first person called upon to address the meeting. His theme was the “degeneracy of the times.” At the conclusion, the meeting adjourned for dinner. Seats were hastily constructed into tables, and covered in great abundance with the most substantial and delicious viands, prepared by hospitable, gray-haired mo> hers of Jasper and Newton. Camp fires were in requisition to prepare the tea and coffee —comforts not to be dispensed with on such an occasion. The writer enjoyed the hospitality of his much esteemed friend. Mrs. Malinda Spitler, whose table was .covered with a spread made forty years ago, and is one

of the many productions of her well known industry. Dinner being over, the meeting was asispsaws I stand. Mr. D’s well known ability as a speaker precludes the necessity of comment. It need only be said that the topics of his speech were admirably adapted to the occasion, and were replete with sentiment that reflected honor upon the head and heart of the speaker. At this juncture of "the proceedings an incident occurred whichjsjjperhaps, worthy of notice. Our old pioneer friend, Thos. Barker, who was one of the prime movers iu getting up the meeting, and who bad been anxiously looked for, now made his appearance on the stand. He had encountered difficulties on the road, but stayed not for break, nor he stopped not for stone; he came all unarmed, and he rode all alone—which accounted for his berog much fatigued and sadly indisposed; but Loughridge, the leech of Jasper, was at hand, and after a hasty diagnosis, produced an invigorating elixir, which soon restored him to his wonted strength and animation. Several of the old settlers were listened to with interest while they narrated circumstances and incidents connected with pioneer life in Jasper and Newton. It is a pleasing reflection that so many have survived the trials and early privations, and are living in the enjoyment of a ripe old age, with all the comforts an advanced civilization can afford, and surrounded with a numerous offspring, whose love and respect they largely enj oj. Arrangements were made for a meeting of the Old Settlers to be held next year, and the following persons were selected to perfect these arrangements: Thos. R. Barker, Wm. Parkison, Geo. H. Brown and Andrew Hess The meeting was brought to a close by singing the very appropriate and well known song: “When you and I were

young, Maggie.”

—Kentland Gazette. Tlie Union of last week contained nearly a half a column of bar-room slang concerning the Republican and its editor, which we consider too contemptible to notice. In regard to circulation we have only this to say: we shall continue to believe, and publish as often as we deem advisable, that the Republican has the largest circulation in the county, until we have proof to the contrary; and we’ll not stoop so low as to bet on the result, cither.

TEE OLE LIEE lEEE STORE. . THE GREAT AMERICAN EXPLORER, MAJOR MUOELESWORTH, has been heard from. The last account we had of him was up to the 17th day of March, 1875,,in latitude 41f degrees west longitude from Washington where he had encountered Dsacon Tubbs and his Party, and after three days of hard bombardment had captured him and his whole party, and now have them confined in the Yew Brick Building on flic South Side’of* Washington Street, Mo. 1004. one door east of F. J. Sears & Co’s dry goods store. The Deacon and his party made a gallant resistance at the old stand on the north side of the street, but the Major was a little too strong for him and captured him and his subordinates, Lieut. Meyer and Will Ferlgrim. Young Perigrim was wounded by an accidental discharge of Meyer’s piece, but your.g Perigrim, at last accounts, was doinsr well; he was using RAD WAVS READY RESOLVENT for his Blood, one bottle of WALLACE’S BITTE -S for hi* Digestive Organs, and three boxes of M’A LESTER’S ALL HEALING SALVE for his wound. It is thought by his nurse that he will recover. _ The Major, in the long exposure with Deacon Tubbs, cheering on his men, took a severe cold which settled in his throat, but by using a bottle of Dr. Harding’s Celebrated Cougb Mixture, we are happy to inform the public that he is able to be out again, and at the NEW BRICK STORE compounding Drugs and Medicines, where the Deacon and the -Major are found at all times dealing out Medicines to their numerous l Customers.
