While Joseph Rogers, a switchman, was coupling cars at Logansport the other night, his head was canght between projecting timbers and his skull fractured. R. Morton, at Lafayette, has recovered a judgment for $15,000 against the Pittsburgh, Cincinnati & St. Louis Railroad for failure to deliver grain according to contract.

John H. Halliday, proprietor of the Indianapolis Evening Newt, waa married on the morning of the 4th to Miss E. M. Rieman, daughter of James N- Rieman, a wealthy Baltimore banker. A jury in a probate case at Union City, after being out eighteen hours, brought in a verdict of guilty, but on polling the jury one member admitted that he had been starved out They were sent out again. Rotten-stone, entirely free from grit, and admirably soited for polishing silver and other metals, has been discovered near Stineville, Clay County. A preacher is the fortunate owner of toe farm on which it is found. The Indianapolis Journal says it is proposed to have a general exhibition in every school-house in the State on the 11th of December to celebrate the fifty-ninth anniversary of the admission of the State to the Union. Judge Gresham, of the United States District Court, at Indianapolis, on the 2d, decided that the law compelling distillers and other liquor-dealers to produce their books and papers in court at the instance of toe District-Attorney is constitutional. The coal-miners in the vicinity of Evansville have struck for four cents a bushel for mming. The present rjite is three and a half cents. The operators refused to yield, claiming that they would open the mines within a week with new hands.

During a heavy thunder-storm on the 3d a valuable barn belonging to Henry Brooks, near Griffin station, was struck by lightning and totally destroyed by fire Two fine horses perished in the flames and a third was badly injured. Loss $3,000. A meld form of epizootic prevails in the vicinity of Madison, which the Courier attributes to the consumption of ergotized hay. It says the excessively rainy weather of the past summer has produced a large amount of erzot in the hay, especially that made from red-top. A mound was recently opened near Knox which contained several skeletons of human beings who were once of great stature. It is estimated that they must have been some seven or eight feet tall while living. Among the other interesting things discovered were several copper arrow-heads. The Board of Supervisors of Madison County have called a special election to be held on the 23d of November to vote upon the question of authorizing a loan of SIOO,000 to rebuild the Court-House. The vote contemplates the levy of a tax of five mills yearly for five years. The Court-House of this county was burned about a month ago. Henry Sinclair, of Lafayette, shot a burglar who was attempting to enter his residence early on the morning of the 28th ult. He found him on the roof of his house, and as he rolled off to the ground he left behind him a pair of boots and a large pool of blood. He was subsequently captured, and at last accounts was thought not likely to recover. The following were the postal changes in Indiana during the week ending Oct. 30, 1875: Discontinued —Mount Liberty, Brown County; Rock Island, Perry County. Postmasters appointed—Clouscr’s Mills, Montgomery County, Nathan Lewis; Elizaville, Boone County, William Byers; Templeton, Benton County, O. H. Hayes; Upland, Grant County, Jacob Bugher; Wild Cat, Carroll County, John W. Penn. The will of Dr. James 8. Athon, a former State official who recently died at Indianapolis, gives to Mrs. Athon onethird of his property for life, and the balance equally to his three children. After the death of Mrs. Athon the third given her will go equally to the children. He made a special bequest of SSOO to Mrs. Athon’s daughter. It is estimated that the estate will amount to’ from $150,000 to $200,000, and is mostly in real estate. The Attorney-General is called upon to answer a rather knotty question in jurisprudence. The village of Lebanon, desiring to put on city airs by taking advantage of the law on the subject, has declared that henceforth it will assume the functions of an incorporated city. By a majority vote of the citizens the town ceased to be, a City Council was elected and ordinances were passed for the city government. According to the law an ordinance cannot go into effect until two weeks after its passage. The question arises, how is is.the city governed in the interim, or is it governed atalj?

What “Faith” Does For Curreney.

Faith and credit are pretty much the same thing. Faith is fi state of mind. Giving credit to a man is putting faith In hfa ability and willingness to keep his promise to pay. Thus credit fulfills aoaSe of the functions of currency, inasmuch as It delays toe d emand for a certain |>art of the existing circulating mediEm, End so enables that part to pass from band to hand and satisfy other debts before it is needed to satisfy this particular debt. If A sells B SIOO worth of goods and requires payment in cash, B must hand over SIOO in currency. But if he takes B’a note, dne in ninety days, toe SIOO that would otherwise be paid at once may pare froni B to C, Cto D, etc., and settle a hundred accounts before B uses it; or its . hquivalent, to pay~A. When credit is $6 common and tons serves, in niapyjbases, as currency, it is not strange toil many people should confuse the two, Jjpst as one school of economists confuses credit and capital, and imagine that a permanent currency may be got by simply using credit as its basis. It is important, however, to remember that credit exists simply because it is not permanent. If B’s note were never to-be paid A would ndver take it. If toe United States should announce that toe greenbacks were never to be redeemed, the precarious credit they have now would utterly disappear, and they would be worthless, except for curiosities. The Confederate “graybaoks” became valueless simply because they will never be redeemed. The credit they ask is an eternal one. Bnt eternal credit cannot exist. Giving credit to a man is believing that he will pay what he promises to pay. If he declares that he will never do so, this belief, this credit, of course vanishes. It should never be forgotten that credit merely postpones the use of money. It does not obviate its nse. For this reason, then, credit can never take the place of money absolutely. Credit is necessarily limited in time. Permanent credit is an absurdity. For this reason then a permanent currency cannot be (Heated out of mere credit A note is the sign of credit. It Is a promise to pay money. Its passage from B to A shows that A has faith in B’s ability to pay it on maturity. There are two elements in this transaction, one tangible, the other intangible. The first is the note, the second is the State of mind which induces Ato receive it. The latter is the more important. For if it exists, A may take B’s spoken promise instead of his written one. But whether the promise is spoken or written by an individual, or printed by a bank or nation, the state of mind must exist in order to allow the promise to fulfill, even for an instant, the functions of currency. And this mental state is wholly dependent upon the supposed chance of the ultimata redemption of the note. Thus, persons who believe that a bit of Government paper, redeemable, if at all, only in other paper that is redeemable only in it, can circulate as a permanent currency practically say that B’s note will buy A’s goods, when A knows that B will never take up toe note save with another, and will never redeem the second except with the first! This reductio ad absurdum effectually disposes of the fallacy that credit or “faith” can be utilized as the permanent basis of currencj\ —Chicago Tribune.

Inflation Not a Means of Relief.

Col. Grosvenor, under the auspices of the New York Board of Trade, gave his views Monday night at the Cooper Institute on the all-important subject of the circulating medium. Mr. George Opdyke, President of the board, introduced Col. Grosvenor. On the platform were Peter Cooper, Isaac Sherman, G. W. Amerman, George A. Shaffer, James T. Van Rensselaer, D. H. London, Benjamin H. Welles, Henry Kemp, 8. Taneda, Thomas Holland and others. The speaker’s address earnestly advocated hard money and combated the ideas of Mr. Kelley and Gen. Butler on behalf of the 3.65 bond-issue scheme. He showed clearly that the loss which must come from the issue of new greenbacks will fall upon the whole people, pressing most hardly upon those who have saved a little money, deposited perhaps in a savings bank or invested in a life insurance. He discredited the notion that the debtor class formed the larger portion of the community, and ridiculed the idea of inflation as a means of relief. Of the greenback he says: On that bit of paper hangs the honor of this great nation with 40,000,000 of freemen. In the crisis of war, when gold bonds sold for less than seventy cents on the dollar, there remained but one conceivable security which Government could give—limitation of volume. In the act of June 30,1864, the Government gave this pledge: “Nor shall the total amount of United States notes issued or to be issued ever exceed $400,000,000.” On the strength of that pledge new issues were accepted, even in those dark days. At the very first session after the war closed, Dec. 18, 1865, the House declared (Judge Kelley and 143 others voting yea and only six voting nay) “ the necessity for contraction of the currency, with a view to the resumption of specie payments.” This is the same Judge Kelley who now asserts that the legal-tender “ never was to be redeemed.”— N. Y. Expi'ess.

Business and Hard Honey.

A New England correspondent of the New York Dry Goods Reporter discusses at much length the condition and prospects of manufacturers in that section; and referring to labor and v ages presents the undoubted truth of the matter in the declaration that the resumption of specie payments “ must bring not lower but higher wages, because resumption would bring activity, prosperity, an enlarged market and greater demand, and these things have never in the world’s history been known to lower wages. The truth is that if to-day our currency were at a par with gold the Fall River operatives might successfully strike before three months were past, whereas now it is even a question whether all the mills can be kept going.” This is not written for political efiect to apolitical paper; but is a business view of the situation, written to a strictly business paper, and it ought to be accepted as an intelligent judgment. —lt is said that in each of the forty-five tobacco factories of Richmond aoe organized Ms Qojored voqaUste,

HOUSEHOLD HINTS.

Sausages.— Forty-six pounds of meat, three-fourths of a pound of salt, three ounces of black pepper, half an ounce of sage and a tablespoonful of red pepper. Always fill a coal-oil lamp every day before using. The bowl should never be allowed to get empty and be lighted in I that condition, for toe vacant space is always full of explosive gas .—Cor. Prairie Parmer. Liquid fertilizer. “ suitable for house plants,” or similar purpose, is prepared by steeping partially-decomposed manure from the cow-stables m water-ram preferred. By filling a hogshead placed in an outhouse about one-third full of toe manure, and toe remaining space with water, a preparation of sufficient strength will result. If very dark dilute with pure water. The manner of cooking spinach is as simple as toe cooking of any kind of “greens.” A little water in a kettle seasoned with salt and boiling. Some add a little soda when the water is hard, toe rize of a pea. The fire should be hot and the herb pressed into the pot and kept down by frequent turning and crowding, so that toe whole may be cooked alike. The very instant it becomes tender, which you know by testing, turn into a colander to drain a few seconds; then dish in with a drainer, or in a common vegetable dish with a lagct* inverted in the bottom. Place It in a hot closet, drain off toe water, butter and pepper and eat immediately. It is a dish toe gods might covet. —Detroit Tribune. Canned Fruit.—A correspondent in a recent issue of the New York Tribune says: “l made a discovery a year ago which will benefit every family in the United States if they will follow it, in panning fruit. It is this: Take any old fruitcan, only have it tight, no matter how mnch the tin is off on the inner surface, and place one sheet of note paper (com-mercial-note size), around the inside. It can be done very easily, and will, if done right, stay just where it is placed. Then put the fruit in toe can in toe usual way, and my word for it, when Mrs. Jones or Mrs. Smith comes to take tea next winter they will not stick np their noses when tasting toe fruit taken out of one of toe paper-coated cans, and say the fruit tastes tinny. On the contrary, they will say it is just as perfect as when put up in new cans. I know there are thousands of farmers, like myself, that have their gardens and cellars filled with old cans. If paper-coated they will be just as good as new. The paper need not be pasted in, as some may think, for it will remain in its place without paste. Sweet-Potato Vine. —This is really a very desirable vine for the house. It is a rapid grower and is much more delicate in appearance under house culture than when growing out of doors. If a vine of this kind is desired, select a well-ripened tuber of the Red Nansemond variety, as this kind is said to be the most vigorous grower. If your potato is eight or ten inches long and four or five inches in diameter it will be about the right size. A dark-colored hyacinth glass is a suitable and pretty holder for toe potato, but a common glass fruit-can or small earthen jar will do. Fill the vessel with rainwater and stand the potato in toe mouth of it, allowing only two or three inches of the potato to go down into the water. Set it in a warm, bright place to sprout, filling up the holder with water as fast as it evaporates. Probably a great many sprouts will start at once or in quick succession; break off all but three or four of these, as your vine will by so doing be much longer and more luxuriant. Nothing more will be needed for the perfection of this vine, except to keep the vessel containing it filled with rain-water. — N. Y. Tribune.

Sulphuric Acid and Weeds.

A correspondent of the Journal of Agriculture (England) writes: “ Take an old blacking bottle, with a wire around it to carry it by and a stick to dip with. The stick should not be pointed, but should be notched round for an inch or two at the end, the better to hold the liquor. Just one drop quite in the heart of the plantain is sufficient to cause death, and the notched stick will contain at one dip enough to destroy three or four plants. If the acid is good the work of death can both be seen and heard, for the vitriol hisses and it burns up the plantain in a moment A row of plantains a foot wide sprang up on a lawn here where an iron* fence formerly ran. The owner, seeing at a place he visited the good effect of vitriol, put the hint in practice. The plantains were killed in an hour, and have never appeared again. It is three years since, and it is impossible to recognize the line of the tence; it completely burns the roots out. I have tried it on large dandelions with the same result. One of the young men there amused himself by hunting out the longest thistles he could find to experiment on. The vitriol completely killed them by eating the roots out. One drop will do. Care is required that it does not touch the skin, boots or clothes; it is not safe in the hands of children, but a man or woman, with ten minutes’ practice, can kill plantains much more quickly than any lad oan eat gooseberries.” During the present “corner” in canary seed the economical will give their pets a mixture of rape and millet seed. A half peck of rape costs seventy-five cents, and an equal quantity of millet thirty-one; this is nearly equal to mixed canary seed and costs a small fraction over thirteen cents a quart. A half-peck of canary seed, costing $1.25, may be added, making a mixed food equal to what retails at forty cents, and which will costless than twenty cents, a quart. —Springfield (Mass.)

Cooking Corn-Stalks.

Everyone knows that cattle cannot eat the stalks of corn that are thrown to them as fodder, but eat only the blades and tops. An observing farmer will notice that often the stalks are chewed but not eaten; this is done by the animal in order to obtain the juices contained therein—many persons do not believe that a corn-stalk containes any nutriment, but it does. There are machines made to cut and crush the stalks fine; but even with this we prefer' steaming. It has been proved that warmed or cooked food is valuable for stock, hence cooked stalks would be beneficial. Do not steep the stalks in water and boil them, but steam them. To do this get a deep sheet-iron pan like a sugar pan but deeper, build a flue and arch in some convenient place in the same manner that sugar puis are made; now get a frame made of iron rods the size of the bottom of the pan inside, and the rods running the short way of the pan; these rods should be riveted to three rods running the long way. Now, put this frame on supports three inches high or more, and fill in with water nearly to the rods; put on your stalks after having first cut or crushed them, and kindle the fire under the pan and steam the stalks until done; then, when cool enough, feed This way you have a warm feed of nutritious food and the steam does not drive out the sugar and starch of the stalk. CM course the pan must be made large enough and kept covered when in use. We advise crushing the stalk between rollers, or, it convenient, run through a threshing machine before steaming.— American Patron.

When you think of buying a harness examine the leather of the hame-strap and the near tuck of the throat-latch and likewise of the crouper. If these ends are of slazy stuff, calculated to squash and plague you while trying to make them enter their loops, don’t buy.” The man who cut the harness did not have the interest ot the purchaser in his mind. At three separate and distinct scowls for each buckling the harness would be dear as a gift. And most likely faults and oversights run through the entire rig.—Hartford Courant. To ascertain if your gun is loaded, put your foot on the hammer and blow in the muzzle, letting the hammer slip from under the foot and descend with smart force on the nipple. If the gun is loaded, you will be notified of the fact.
