Hob. D. D. Pratt declines to be a candidate for Governor of Indiana. g ' '■ ■--= The LaFayette Courier has received a copy rtf the Ulster County Gazette, of January 4th, 1800. It will be exhibited at the Centennial. Mias Elk Bochins, a young lady living in Kankakee, 111., leveled a revolver at the heads of some troublesome tramps and bade them move on. They moved. The Republican National Committee will meet on Thursday, January 13, at 10 o’clock a. m., at the Arlington Hotel, Washington, for the purpose of fixing the time and place for holding the next Republican National Convention for the nomination of President and Vic3-Presi-dent. The Democratic papers are endeavoring to make a great handle of the whisky frauds that are being exposed, and laying it all to Republican corruption. They forget that the Republicans are unearthing and punishing this dishonesty themselves, without the aid of the Democrats. Did the Demoeratij party ever d 6 such n thing while it was in power?. The Republican party puts an iron hand upon corruption and dishonesty wherever found, and therein is the difference between the two parties.

THE Cincinnati Commercial. A Representative INDEPENDENT NEWSPAPERThe Cincinnati Commercial is the journal of the largest and most general circulation in Cincinnati and vicinity, and is sold through hundreds of agencies in Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, West Virginia and Southern Illinois, and on all the railroads in those States, and there is a special eall for it along the great rivers from Pittsburg to New Orleans. The territory occupied by the constituency of the Commercial is that within one day’s railroad travel of Cincinnati, and there are regular carriers’ routes for the Commercial in Columbus, Ohio; Indianapolis, Indiana; Frankfort, Kentucky ; Nashville, Tennessee; Charleston, West Virginia; Louisville, Kentucky; Parkersburg, West Virginia; Chattanooga, Tennessee; Vincennes, LaFayctte, Fj vansville and Richmond, Indiana ; Dayton, Xenia, Springfield, Newark, Debtaware and Zanesville, Ohio; Lexington, Maysville, Paris and Cynthiana, Kentucky ; and in scores of other superb and 'flourishing cities. Cincinnati is the most central and the most distinctly representative of the large cities of the Nation, and on all sides is supported by thrifty and prosperous communities, in which, for hundreds of miles in every direction from the place of publication, the Commercial is the favorite newspaper. In a political sense, the Commercial is thoroughly independent. It recognizes no obligations to party organizations. Its sincerity in this position is popularly understood, and so largely appreciated that its subscribers and habitual purchasers in either political party outnumber those of the party organs, and its aggregate circulation is greater than that of its competitors combined. In politics the Commercial occupi es 4< the field of independent journalism,” mcaniug thereby the territory outside the party fences—the woods pasture and unfenced prairies, so to speak. As we understand it, we are in possession of all that open country that we can occupy — and we intend to abide there, or, at least, to look to it as our base of operations. If we enter a party inclosure it will be with the fence down behind us. We have not the slightest disposition to try, as a steady thing, the dry fodder and -dusty husks and stale straw of the party stables, wherein “the ox knoweth his owner and the ass his master’s crib.” We would prefer, in case of necessity, to browse in the wilderness. The Commercial has no favors to ask of politicians and no dread of them. The news of the day is our specialty. We spare no effort nor expense, at home or abroad, to obtain by telegraph, by mail and by express, the latest intelligence, and to present it in the most attractive and authentic form. We propose to print all the news without reference to its party bearings, and our every-day work and mission are to redace the percentage of stealing in the transaction of the public business; and as often as we can be sore which is the thieves’ side, we will be on the other side. We do not. mean by stealing only or chiefly pocket-picking and shop-lifting, the sly pilfering of sneaks, and the bold appropriations by burglars, but all the processes by which persons who do not earn money come into the possession of it, especially when 4hey do so through discriminations against -the unwary, in the laws; and swindles, that art disguised by those who get their living out of politics, as public services. Our editorial remarks upon events, and discussions of the questions of the day, ore according to our judgement having always in view the efficacy of the truth, in the interests of the people. We assume as a thoroughly understood feet our relations with political parties are such that we shall not be suspected of tampering with the news in the interest of either. We mean to tell the plain truth, no matter whom it hits or whom ft helps or hurts. We expect to be as thorough and impartial in presenting financial intelligence, which is of constantly increasing interest and importance to the general public, as in dealing with por . Jjtical information. We do not seek offi-

cial favors or partisan patronage, but rely wholly upon the business that grows out of the respect atwjpgood pill of ths pub* lie at large. Jpr y The Cindibati Commercial takes | hearty interest in the polities of Europe, which telegraphic communication has brought into very intimate relations with us, and, earnestly vindicating and sustaining the development of nationality in in Germany and Itally, it eordudly sympathies with the Republican cause in all Nations. The daily newspaper at this time becomes almost a necessity of life, and it is not hazardous to claim for the Cincinnati Commercial that it is at onse the most complete and trustworthy journal issued in the Ohio Valley—the center of tbs population and the seat of the political power of the Nation. The year 1876—the year of the Centennial Anniversary of the Republic—is doubtless destined to be one of the most notable in American history, Good citizens must join hands to make it happily memorable. It ia the year of a magnificent American Exposition in honor of the Centennial, to which the representatives of the Nations of the earth are invited. It is also the year ot a Presidential election, of which there is already impressive evidence that will be singularly momentous. : , Our agents arc reminded that this is a promising time to canvas for new subscribers, and it is onr impression that if a careful and energetic effort were made, there would be occasion to increase orders largely. We offer no other inducements to subscribers than the reputation of the Commercial for enterprise in collecting the news, and honorable dealing with the people in publishing it fairly. All applicants furnished with specimen copies and circulars giving exact and full details of business information. Advertising rates from 10 to 40 cents per agate line, according to display and position—the best terms offered by any first-class journal, character and extent of circuktion considered. M. HALSTEAD & CO., Proprietors of Cincinnati Commercial.

Meeting of Auxiliary Publishers.

An informal or initial meeting of the publishers of auxiliary newspapers was held at the Commercial Hotel parlors in this city at 3 o’clock yesterday afternoon, the object being to consult together as to the propriety of discarding the advertisements from auxiliary sheets or to receive pay therefor. The meeting organized by choosing S. P. Connor, of the Gazette, Kcntland, Ind., as Chairman, and George Burt, Jr., of the Republican, Henry, 111., as Secretary. A discussion pertaining to the interest of publishers of patent insides was participated in by the chairman and members present. It touched upon the prices now paid for auxiliary sheets, which were cons idered too h igh, and particularly on the necessity and justice of discarding the use of advertisements in the auxiliary sheets, unless remuneration was received for such service. The subject was thoroughly ventilated, when a Committee was appointed to draft an address to be sent out to all publishers in the Northwest nsing the auxiliary sheets, setting forth the objects in view, and asking their co-operation, and reque sting them to be present and participate in the meeting, to be held at the Commercial Hotel, in this city, the second Tuesday in February, 1876, to which this meeting adjourned.— All the “Inside” publishers in the States of Indiana, Illinois, lowa, Michigan, and Wisconsin, are invited. —Chicago Tribune.

It seems proper that the local celobrations of the Fourth of July, 1876, which will be held throughout the land, should be made to contribute to a permanent historical memorial of the Centennial Celebration. In each county provision should be made' for the delivery of an address tracing the history of that particular community for the past century, or from the time of its settlement, and including a sketch of its growth, its resources, industries, prospects, etc.— These addresses should be published in a uniform size, that of the Congressional documents, for instance, —in order that they may be bound together by States. To competent persons the preparation of such addresses would not be an unduly burdensome task ; but in the aggregate they would constitute an invaluable historical repository such as no nation has ever had the opportunity to collect. Designations of the historians ought to be made without delay, in order that they may have time to accomplish their work. It is to be hoped that the press will give general circulation to the project, and that the siightexpense involved be assumed by (be county or town authorities.

The last account we had of him was up to the I7th day of March, 1875, in latitude 41$ degrees west longitude from Washington where he had encountered Deacon Tubbs and his Party, and after three days of hard bombardment had captured him and his whole party, and ——now have them confined ia the——— lew Brick Building on the South Side’of Washington Street, Mo. 1004. one door east of F. J. Sears ft Co’s dry goods store. The Deacon and his party made a gallant resistance at the old stand on the north tide of the street, but the Majorwas a little toe strong for him wad captured him and his subordinates, Lieut. Meyer and Will Pewigvim. Young Perigrim was wounded by an accidental discharge of Meyer’s piece, but yoang Perigrim, at last accounts, was doing well; he was using RAD WAY’B READY RESOLVENT for his Stood, one bottle of WALLACE’B BTTTEkS for his Digestive Organs, and three boxes of M’ALESTKR’S ALL HEALING SALVE for his wound.
