Lutheb R. Martin, of Indianapolis, a well-known real estate broker, was thrown from his bttgy the other evening and fatally injured. He died next morning. Mrs. Hacker, of Marco, gave her two children, the other day, what she supposed to be quinine. It proved to be strychnine and both died in an hour. A project is under discussion in Laporte and Porter Counties to create a new county out of portions of those two, with Michigan City for the county seat. Thomas Welhat’s barn, near Mechanicsburg, caught fire the other day from the spark of a steam-engine used to run a thresher. The property burned was valued at $5,000. A little three-year-old boy, son of H. C. Short, living near Rushville, was burned to death a few morning ago in consequence of his clothing taking fire from a hot stove. Capt. R. H. Williamson, once a prominent citizen of Lebanon, recently made an unsuccessful attempt at suicide by taking a dose of morphine. He was pumped out. Pifty fat hogs belonging to a farmer near Centerville were killed a few nights ago by some unknown person who fed them corn-meal in which pounded glass had been mixed. Jas. & Mclntosh was fatally injured while at work in Tucker’s mill, at Logansport, the other day, by being struck in the stomach by a heavy piece of wood thrown from a shaping-machine.

A pour- year-old son of John Spoon, of Monroeville, while riding with his father on a load of corn, the other day, fell ofl and the wagon passed over his bowels. He lived thirty minutes. E. C. North, Clerk-elect of Ohio County, refuses to take the office because under the new law the fees of the office only amount to from $350 to S4OO a year —not enough to support his family. Samuel Fanning stabbed his brother, in-law, John Clark, at North Manchester, seven times, the other day, and fatally wounded him. The trouble arose from Clark attempting to correct Fanning’s child. During a drunken row at Indianapolis on the evening of the 23d Thomas Meskell was stabbed in the leg by a rowdy named W. H. Howard. An artery was seyered and Meskell bled to death in five minutes. On the 4th, at Walton, George Harris, while gathering nuts, fell from the top of a large tree, his head striking on a snag, which drove itself through his skull, inflicting wounds from which he died five . hours after.

Hon. Carl Sehurz on the Effects of “More Money.”

Can that he “the people’s money” whose value in the people’s hands is apt to vanish into nothing and is sure to vanish into nothing if much more of it is issued? A paper money of ever-changing value as tbe principal element is not a game for the laboring man, the poor man, to play. In that game only those win who deal. Who does not know when the crisis in 1873 came that work stopped and wages went down a good while before the cost oi living did ? And who had to lose the difference ? The laboring man. Of all agencies which human ingenuity can invent there is none that so insidiously robs human labor of its earnings and makes the fortunes of the poor man the football of the rich as a currency of fluctuating value. Who will deny that when the depreciation of such a currency drives up prices the laboring man’s wages rise last and least? Who will deny that when the bubbles of paper speculation burst the laboring man’s earnings are Gat down first and lowest? Is our country an exception to the rule ? The least reflection will certainly convince you that, whatever our financial policy may be, whether there be much or little money, he who wants to get it must earn it The capitalist will gain it by profitable investments, the trader by buying and selling, the farmer by raising crops, the laborer by the work of his hand. Nobody will get it for nothing. But if under all circumstances you must gain it by hard work must you not see that it is manifestly for your interest to have money the value of which is certain ? Let me tell the laboring men that they have no more heartless enemies than those pretended friends who, with artful catch-words playing upon their credulity, seek to make them believe that they possess the secret of alchemy with which to create wealth out of nothing, and with that nothing to make those happy who serve their purposes. If their schemes, unfortunately, should prevail, then the time will surely come for their poor victims to curse the day when they foolishly followed such treacherous counsel, and curse the men who administered it.

Suppose they succeed in their scheme; suppose, by inflation, the speculating fever be revived, and they not only get rid of their liabilities, but make millions of profit on their gambling enterprises, who will lose the millions they gain ? Who will pay the cost ? Not the victims alone, who are foolish enough to take the speculating enterprises off their hands, and then are caught by the final crash inevitably to come. Such victims would, perhaps, deserve their fate. No, the cost would be paid by the laboring men of the country, whom the depreciation of the currency would plunder of the difference between the rise of the prices of necessaries and the rise of wages. The cost would be paid by the industrious and frugal, whose deposited savings would he robbed of their value; by the pensioners, the disabled soldiers, the widows and orphans of the slain, whose slender incomes would be despoiled of their power to buy bread; by every honest man in the land, who would suffer in the game of over-reaching which the inflated currency would bring with it.

Some of the Consequences of Inflation.

It galvanizes into spasmodic life all that is reckless, imprudent and foolish in human nature by infusing the gambling element of pure Chance into every business transaction. This it does by the use of a medium of exchange as unstable in value as the mercurial column is unstable in height. It creates for its advocates and dupes a mental strabismus: they look where there is nothing, and they think they see something. It gives them one day of the rosiest illusions and a week of the direst disenchantment. It makes them spend that which they have not—mortgaging the future for an hour of spendthrift enjoyment. In tbe dreams and reveries of men it substitutes the unreal for the real; in the looseness of morals which it engenders it makes the supreme good of men to consist in the rapid accumulation and lavish display of wealth. It is the creator in its victims of an absolute insanity, so that they regard the very calamitii 8 inherent in its nature as blessings to be again sought for and enjoyed. It leads the nation, as it does the individual, into the straight road to bankruptcy and dishonor. These results of an irredeemable inflated currency have been demonstrated to he true by the experience of every people who have tried it,, and by none more so than by our own. —Republic Magazine.

... .In answer to the remarkable argument that moneyas the standard of values should itself intrinsically be of no value the New York Evening Poet says: If the thing to be measured be an extension the thing by which it is measured must have extension.or length; if.it be a weight the measure must have weight; if it be volume the measure must have capacity; if if it he heat the measure must be a unit of heat; if it be time the measure must be a unit of time; and so if it be wealth or something wrought by labor the measure must be wealth. . . . But did anyone ever propose or hear of an ideal measure of length or an ideal measure of weight or capacity? Did anyone ever propose to stamp upon a piece of paper “This is a foot: United States,” or “This is a bushel: United States,” or “ This is a pound: United States” ? No; and why? Why not issue measures of weight, length and capacity front the printing-press as well as measures of wealth? An ideal onnee or an ideal inch or an ideal pint is just as valid and tangible' a quantity as an ideal dollar. Neither of them measures anything and they all alike express nothing.”

... .As to the wind-work about a currency based on the wealth of the nation, the Boston Pott remarks: “As coin is only of that value which it intrinsically possesses, regardless of the stamp put upon it, so is the value of paper currency determined by its ready convertibility into coin. Not that it is worth anything of itself, but that it represents actual value, and will at any tune bring it That is the very most that can be said for paper money.- The talk about its being based on tbe wealth of the country is the assiguat theory right over Mfaih, feeding up into fce aif,”

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Doughnuts. —One teacup of amir cream or milk, two teacups of sugar, one of butter, four eggs, one teaspoonful of saleratus; spice to taste Veal Sausages.— Chop equal quantities of lean veal and fat pork, a handful of sage, a little salt; beat all in a moftar and roll out like doughnuts and fry them. Jumbles. —One and one-fourth pounds of flour, three-fourths of sugar, three eggs, a little nutmeg, three-fourths of a pound of butter. Roll them in sugar. To Stuff a Fillet of Veal.— Take a slice or two of foe fillet and a few slices of pork, chop these very fine, add sweet herbs, pepper and salt; if the pork does not make it soft enough, moisten it with an egg. Chicken Celery— Boil two chickens; when cold, take the meat from the bones, chop it fine with the yelks of nine eggs boiled hard, two heads of celery chopped, add sweet-oil, mustard, cayenne, a little salt; mix it well together. Indian Pudding.— Boil a quart of milk and stir in four tablespoonfuls of Indian meal and four of grated bread or crackers, three tablespoonftils of sugar, four eggs, a piece of butter as large as a walnut, and a little salt. Bake it three hours. Hasty Pudding. —Boil some water and thicken with flour, as you would for thin starch; sift some coarse meal and stir in until it is quite thick; keep it boiling all the time you are putting in the meal, which must be done gradually; salt to the taste; boil it well; put it in a bowl and turn out. Eat with cream and molasses. Indian Dumplings.— Mix your meal with water that almost boils; make them up and put them in to boil abont twenty minutes moderately; they will come to pieces if they boil hard. Some prefer to stir up the meal with hot water and pat it in a clean cloth, as they are apt to break if not properly managed. An hour will cook it in this way. Fill a quart bowl with alternate layers of thinl}-sliced apples and sugar, add half a teacup of water, cover with a saucer held in place by a weight; bake slowly three hours; let it stand until v:old and you will turn out a rounded mass of clear, red slices imbedded in firm jelly. For an accompaniment to a dessert of blanc-mange, rennet custard, cold rice pudding or similar dishes, or even with nice bread mid butter, there is nothing nicer.

Fall and Winter Care of Stock.

Under the system followed by some farmers nearly all the growth dr gain in weight made by the cattle ia during the summer months, they being so poorly fed and cared for during winter as to grow but little, if any, and it is not uncommon to have both young and full-grown cattle weigh less in April than they did in October. When grass comes in the spring some weeks pass before the former state of health and flesh is regained, so that five months out of the twelve not unfrequently is the time in which flesh is added. This, of course, is very unprofitable management, and now is a good time to make preparation to prevent any approach to itIf supplied with an abundance of good food a healthy animal will not seriously suffer from exposure to extreme cold, and will even show comparatively little bad effects from exposure to storms of cold rains or snow. But this is expensive work. The animal must keep itself warm in some way and must get dry if not kept dry. If comfortable shelter does not keep it warm and dry it must consume more food to supply the extra heat, and if this food is not supplied the animal must draw on the store of fat it has laid up in the past. It is entirely possible to keep domestic animals too warm in winter; it ia quite common, in the attempt to keep them warm, to injure them by confining them in badly-ventilated stables and sheds. Neither of these abuses makes it advisable to go to the other extreme and give it insufficient shelter. A common mistake, we think, is in neglecting cattle in the fall, allowing them to lose flesh before giving them grain Or shelter. It is not necessary to have expensive buildings. Even a straw-covered shed or stable, which can be made in a day and with very little expenditure of money, will keep cattle dry and warm. Neither is it necessary to feed extravagantly, but enough should be given to make up for depreciation in value of the grass by frosts or drought. It is coming to be generally recognized that it does not pay to allow young plants or animals to receive a check to their growth if this can be avoided; so it is unwise to allow a loss of the gain made during the summer by lack of care or food in the fall or winter. —Western Rural.

A Good Way to Winter Honey-Bees.

A successful apiarian of Camargo, 111., A. Solisburgh, gives, in the American Bee Journal, his mode of wintering honey-bees in the cellar or house built exclusively for that purpose. When deposited I always raise the lid a quarter of an inch on one side or end of the hive, partially closing the fly-hole so as to exclude mice. The mercury should range at about forty-five degrees Fahrenheit. When the proper season rolls around put them up immediately after they have flOwn out, or in a few days, and leave them undisturbed in midnight darkness, and all will be right in the spring. To secure the desired end outdoors in winter, if the hive is large, holding more than the requisite amount of winter stores, it must be contracted to a proper size and ventilated at the top, so as to let the surplus moisture escape mid yet secure the animal heat of the bees. This is easily done. Remove the surplus frames from one side of the hive, slipping in a dividing board, filling in between it and the outer wall with leaves or straw. Cover the frames with a piece of cloth of any description, first laying a few small strips of board across the frames to give the bees a pass or passes over the tops of the frames under the cloth. Now put the second story on and fill it with leaves, straw, or some other fine, warm material and place the lid on, contracting the flyhole to about one inch, and if the swarm is very strong raise the lid one-fourth of an inch on one side to dry up the moisture that collect? rapidly on the top of the

Hives should be placed near the ground and under-pinned -with straw to secure the heat of the earth. Bees cannot be successfully wintered outdoors and empty combs prevented from molding where the hive is not contracted to a proper size. Hie arrangement is in conflict with the laws of success, and disastrous results must follow. The moisture thrown off in animal respiration is in fine particles, like steam when exhaled from foe lungs, and never will condense into drops until it reaches a stratum of atmosphere colder than the blood. When it cannot escape at the top of the hive it settles in drops at the furthest and coldest part of the hive, and when lodging on empty combs they are blighted with mildew and in a few years worthless, whereas they should last good ten or fifteen years. When the size of the hive corre* sponds with the size of the swarm the whole internal air of the hive is kept warm, and the particles of moisture are borne upon the atmosphere and condense in the top of the hive above the straw, where they will never get back, leaving the bees dry and warm, in which condition cold seldom affects a good swarm. —Suicide is getting to be more common in this country than it formerly was in France.

“All Run Down.”

This is an expression that we hear from doctors when they are in doubt about the nature of the disease of their patients. The country seems to be filled with such cases, and they are trying first one remedy and then another, hoping in vain to find relief. They generally have the following symptoms: A general depression of spirits, with evil forebodings, a whirling sensation in the head when rising up suddenly, foul breath, with a bad taste in the mouth, especially in the morning, pain in the-sides and back, urine scanty and high colored, frequently voided with difficulty, frequent headaches, a distressed feeling at the pit of the stomach, food affording no nourishment. The patient feels tired all the while, and sleep affords but little rest. After a time a dry, hacking cough sets in, followed after a time with expectoration, bands and feet cold and clammy at times, a general wasting of the body. In such cases we need a remedy that will act upon the liver,(kidneys, stomach and blood at the same time, and when we use such a remedy it affords relief. The best article for this purpose is the Shakes Extract of Roots, sola by A. J. White, 819 Pearl street, N. Y. Agents wanted. Schbnck’s Pulmonic Syrup, for the Cora of Consumption, Coughs and Colds. The great virtue of this medicine is that it ripens the matter and throws it out of the system, purifies the blood, and thus effects a curs. Schxnck’s Sex Weed Tonic, for the Cure of Dyspepsia, Indigestion, etc. The Tonic produces s healthy action of the stomach, creating an appetite, forming chyle, and curing the most obstinate eases of indigestion. Schenck’s Mandrake Pius, for the Cure of Liver Complaint, etc. These pills are alterative and produce a healthy action on the liver without the least danger, as they are free from calomel, and yet more emcacioua in restoring a healthy action of the liver. These remedies are a certain cure for Consumption, as the Pulmonic Syrup ripens tbe matter and purifies the blood. The Mandrake Pills act upon the liver, create a healthy bile, and remove all diseases of the liver, often a cause of Consumption. The Sea Weed Tonic gives tone and strength to the stomach, makes a good digestion, and enables the orgsns to form good blood; and thus creates a healthy circulation of healthy blood. The combined action of these medicines, as thus explained, will cure every case of Consumption, if taken in time, and the use ot the medicines persevered in.

The Biggest Bet of the Missourl State Fair.

Five thousand dollars against a two-thou-sand dollar wager was offered by the Proprietors of the Jilz Well Auger that it would bore a hole of the some size faster and easier than any other well auger on exhibition, and we learn that thia is a standing offer for one year. Who Will accept it? See their advertisement in another column. The season for coughs and colds is rapidly approaching, and everyone should be prepared, to check the first symptoms, as a cough contracted between now and Christmas frequently lasts all winter. There is no better remedy than Johnson's Anodyne Liniment. For all diseases of tbe throat and lungs it should be used internally and externally. Lung fever, common cold, catarrhal fever and nasal discharge of a brownish color in horses may be checked at once by liberal use of Hheridan'i Cavalry Condition Powders.

Felder.—" My wife and self have used the REGULATOR for years, and I certify to its great virtues.” The most dangerous mines in the United States are in Schuylkill County, Pa., one man being killed there for every 35,000 tons mined. One man is killed iff England for every 138,000 tons mined, one in Pennsylvania for every 88,000 tons, and one in Ohio for every 133,000 tons. This destruction of human life ought always to be considered when making complaints about dear fuel. No doubt the prices often charged for coal are too dear, but the excess of charges is on the part of those who own the mines, and never on that of those who work them. Doughnuts.—-Oiie cup of sugar, one cup of cream, or, if you don’t have it, take a cup of sweet milk, add a lump of butter the size of an egg, one teaspoonful oi cream-tartar, half a one <rfsoda; flour enough to roll.
