Wrilten expressly for the Locomolivo. THE MANIAC'S LEAP.

Maggie Lee lay upon her couch of pain watching the glorious sunset of'a mellow Summer evening ; upon her cheek glowed the hectic flush, and the mother noted that it grew-deeper as days flew by ; her voice was dry and husky, and at times her utterance seemed choked, and she was unable to speak loudly enough to be heard, excepting by the most vigilant watcher. She lay passive in the hands of death, for her physicians had given her up, and her friends could do nothing, but watch and wait and mourn, to think that one so young and lovely should thus be summoned to pass through the dark waters. A gloomy month had passed. Mrs. Lee sat by the bedside of her dying child, watching the changes in iier countenance as they came and went. She held her hand within her own, which was already damp with the dews of death. With a convulsive effort she raised herself bed Mother, said she, and the mother's head was bent in a listening attitude I know that I shall die ! but the thought of death does not distress me ; 'tis not for myself I weep, but for those I leave behind; I weep at the thought of so soon leaving you, my own dear mother but I rejoice that I shall meet my sainted Father in heaven. Kiss my sisters for me, and my dear brother, should he live to return. There is another ! Herbert ! tell him my last prayer was for him, I forgive him for all the wrong he has done me ; and Emily, tell him to love her for my sake. We shall all meet in heaven. And now mother raise the windows that I may gaze silently upon the glorious sun dipping his rays far in some western waters. May be he is gazing at this moment upon the same beautiful scene, and he knows not that with it, his broken-hearted Maggie shall pass away. I have long wished to die at this hour, but not so soon 1 Oh not so soon ! not so early in life. She gazed long and steadily at receding nature, and then closed her eves. Mrs. Lee looked at her for a moment, and she saw that the pure spirit of her cherished child had ascended to the God who gave it. Go with us dear reader to yonder craft, as she slowly skims her way along the waters of the great Ohio ! Knter her cabins ! A gay and happy group arc there assembled ; joyous at the prospect of nearing the port and soon being clasped by loved ones at home. The blushing maiden and the enthusiastic lover are there, some in haste to join those objects of so much interest at home, after an absence of a whole year. Herbert Florence, the affianced husband of Maggie Lee, we recognize among the group; he is poring over the vol ume that has been his study wmle abroad it is a volume of that delightful science we call botany. Herbert is a lover of nature and is determined to search into its inmost parts. A settled melancholy is on his manly brow, and he seems to be the only one in the group whose mind is occupied with a burdening thought ; his thoughts are at home with Maggie Lee ! Ah, he little thinks that she is in her grave 1 Perhaps 'tis better that he does not know it yet, or he might seek to bury himself beneath those waters over whose bosom he is now sailing so peacefully. Many letters burdened with his love, were penned and sealed by him, indorsed with Maggie's name, but they never reached their destination. The artful hand of Emily Lee had impeded their progress, the first one she took herself from the office, and after carefully breaking the seal, she imitated Herbert's writing so perfectly that poor Maggie was deceived, and charged the lover with falsehood and deception. She wrote one purporting to be from Herbert told her of his deep and undying love for her sister Emily, and that after time and hard-ship had altered him so that she would nt be able to recognize in him the Herbert of old, he would return and win, if possible, the hand of Emily he had been foolishly infatuated in his boyishness and he hoped she would be woman enough to forgive the man for what the boy had done. She read his letter in astonishment at his estrangement, and pined and grew sick beneath the stroke. Her deceitful and heartless sister watched beside her bed, and Herbert was a wretch. in her pretended estimation ; gradually the light sunk from her eye and the buoyancy from her spirit ; the hectic flush grew bright upon her cheek, and Emily saw that her wronged sister must die, the physicians could extend no further aid. Emily, said she one day, a short time before she died, in the bottom of my little drawer there is a letter which I wish you to read read it and you will there see the stroke which is wearing my life away ! He loves you Emily fondly as I once hoped he loved me, and he will soon return to woo, and if possible, to win you for his bride, but I shall be gone away my short life will be done. But oh dearest Emily, forget not your sister, and love Herbert for her sake ! I do not blame vou Emily, and Herbert is forgiven. Maggie ceased to speak, and Emily would . fain have forgotten the letter, but the dying girl pointed to the drawer ; she rose mechanically and opened it, and lifted the fatal letter which her own hand had penned. Oh 1 had she acted then as her better judgment dictated, what a world of sorrow and remorse might she have avoided ; but she smothered the feeling and retribution followed. . - The gentle sister passed away, and Emily still lived on. But she was unhappy, for she felt that she had been the cause of her sister's suffering and her death. Herbert Florence returned six weeks after the grave had closed over his precious love. He wept for many days. But gradually new scenes, and constantly associating himself in business with the world, the spell of gloom which had thrown its mantle of darkness o'er ' his young life was broken, and he seemed almost a happy man again. For poor guilty Emily's sorrows there was no balin, and she pined in silence, for none knew the cause of her grief, and she would confide to fcnone aftor having proven so false herself. ' The mother of Emily was as a mother to Herbert, for he now knew no other, and her house was his home. Many a time did he take Emily by the hand and beseech of her to know the cause of her uncontrolable grief, but he could elicit no answer. One day in the Autumn season, Herbert returned trom his business at an earlier hour than usual, he entered the sitting room where Mrs. Lee was engaged at sewing, and inquired for Emily for she had grown very dear to him in the year that had passed. His heart was lirrhter than usual, and he looked more cheerful than he had done since he first received the tidings that Ainirrrie was no more. He had returned that evenino; witlT the intention of meeting his Emily, and of hnni Y.U hpart and hand at her feet, with the fond hnnp.that. lie. mitrht thereby restore the former happi ness to the famify. But she was gone and none knew wlilthpvhfi somrht her in the house and through the garden walk, but he found not his Emily. The mother became uneasy, and Herbert was fearfully agitated. He determined to extend his search still further. At the next house lived a sweet and lovely girl with whom Emily had been in the habit of visiting. - Thither he hastened, hoping to find her in social intercourse with her friend : but his errand here was without effect ! Though not entirely fruitless, Miss Carlton had seen her pass her house that afternoon, and wondered that she did not stop. By the way, said she, Emily has grown sadly melancholy of late, and although she has never refused to trust her confidence to me, yet the cause of her grief is still a sealed mystery, and I have ceased to question her in regard to it But few words more were spoken by either, and Herbert not manifestinrr any uneasines withdrew, and Miss Carlton closed the door with feelings and susmc.ons almost a kin to those of Herbert, but neither knew the others feelings. - ' ' ... To a mo covered roc, far, far from any dwelling oamo- . , . mmantic spot with which a burdened heart, till he came to the est in which he hoped to see hen He thought of the time, when at where he now jVSSZSr gie Lee-that he Xm. pledge whichJere had and there exchange t more firmly todictated, and which wU n0 further, and gether. He felt as tund, asof a female he listened again A to kd voice, came slowly noaunj, v.

the wild melody of nature ! Presently a form, clad in white, with silken curls floating in the breeze, came swiftly gliding past him ! He had found his lost Emily 1 He clasped her by the arm, and she laughed with a wild and childish glee ! Oh Herbert, said she, and she laughed louder than before. ' I have found her, and I am forgiven, and you will yet be united to your lost Maggie come, come you shall see her 1 And she seized him wildly by the arm. Herbert knew that grief had overbalanced her reason, and he was conversing with a maniac. He allowed himself to be led on into the forest, and when they reached the moss grown rock they sat down ; it was there that Emily expected to see her lost sister whom she had so deeply wronged, and for whom she was now suffering. She looked around upon the thick forest, and then gazed long and sadly into the waters that rolled at her feet, and Herbert ! poor Herbert ! he had found his Emily, but how, not as the gay, lighthearted girl that he had known but a short time before not as the pensive mourner of yesterday but a hopeless grinning maniac. He felt that to sleep beneath the clear blue water which rolled beneath him, would be almost preferable to the sad task of breaking the news to Mrs. Lee of Emily's derangement. A thousand thoughts were passing gloomily through his mind, when the lovely looking creature beside him, burst out into a loud sweet song, the very one he had heard when he first entered the grove. The notes swelled forth in such perfect harmony, that Herbert began to cherish a hope that her insanity was a delusion, but soon he was convinced to the contrary. She ceased her song, gazed into his face, and pointed to a little flower a few steps distant. Listen, Herbert, said she, while I tell you a tale of woe : I shall soon join the spirit of my murdered sister in another world 1 they told me she was not dead, and I came here restore to her herlost Herbert, and to implore her forgiveness, but they told me falsehoods. She sleeps in her grave where I too shall soon sleep ! Herbert Florence, had I neverknown you, I had never suffered ; had I never known the balm of love, I had never known the sorrows of repentance, and now that I suffer you call me mad amaniac but listen ! Tell my mother that tomorrowl shall eat my dinner at her table, and drink my wine from her cups; you too will be there Herbert, and

we shall drink deepof pleasures again. Now gatherthat simple flower, that sweet " forget-me-not," and place it next your heart and wear it there for my sake, Herbert 1 , . . He hastened to procure the flower, and listen, a slight rustling of garments 1 a faint step ! and a light plash in the water, and Emily, the beautiful 'Maniac,' sleeps beneath its placid surface. Her story is known to none but Herbert, and he wisely forbears to breathe her name. He often visits the spot from which she made the fatal plunge. The birds sing as sweetly as ever, but to Herbert Florence their song is melancholy ; the waters ripple as pleasantly as ever, but the short and guilty life of Emily .Lee, once mingled with the stream, the scene brings such burning recollections, that Herbert hurries from the spot to visit the peaceful grave of Maggie Lee, his first and dearest love ! Reader, our tale is told ; if the perusal ol it has offorded you any pleasure, or awakened any interest within your heart, we are amply repaid tor the trouble we have taken in rendering it profitable and inter esting. And should it ever really come before your eyes, dear reader, you may expect soon to hear again from the author of the Maniac s Leap. THE CANAL WHAT SHOULD BE DONE. A move has been made towards filling up the canaL Three grounds are assumed as the basis of action : 1. That the canal is forfeited, and no longer legally exists. 2. That it is the cause of sickness. ' ! 3. That it is a heavy expense to the city. The filling is opposed on the ground of the advantage the canal is to the city as a water power. As to the first ground taken for filling up the canal, it involves a legal question to be settled by the court. As to the second ; I do not believe the canal is a cause of sickness. Experience is proving that there is no more healthy portion of the city than that west of the canal. A canal runs through Terre Haute, Dayton, and divers other cities, but nobody calls them sickly for that. The canal, when flowing, rather adds to the beauty of that part of the city, by the variety of views it furnishes it breaks a dead monotony of surface. As to the third ground ; the .expense, it is a great one. It were well that the city could be relieved of it. ' Now, on the other hand, the water power and manufactures the claimed advantages of the canal where are we to reap them. The canal has existed twenty years, but where are the manufactures it has built up ? It never has built up any, and never will while in its present condition. It is to be feared, indeed, owing to the want of encouragement from our property-holders and moneyed men, that the hopes of Indianapolis as a manufacturing city are blasted forever. But the canal, if in good hands, and if in good legal existence, might be made a source of power for manu facturers. . It never will be till it is in good hands ; and it never will be in good hands till it is settled that there is a title to it. No man will buy it; no man will rebuild the aqueduct ; no man will build a mill on it till he knows there is a valid title to it. Hence, the first step is, for the good of all parties, to have a suit and settle the title. If it is good, the canal will be improv ed. If it is not, then it can be filled up through the city, condemned above that as a mill race, build along the bank at West's mill, and a great manufacturing interest built up. Settle the Title. HOUSES OF REFUGE. " '. ' While it is the absolute duty of the State to provide for the punishment of those who violate the law, it is also hiahlv essential that the mode adopted should look almost exclusively to the reformation of the individual upon whom punishment is inflicted. It is true that by the incarceration of criminals society is protected for the time being from their depredations, but if no reformation takes place in the character of the man during his service in the Penitentiary, when he emerges from the prison walls he will doubtless engage in the same career of crime. Our experience teaches us that the State Prison is a poor place to reform the wicked. But, on the contrary, we are of the opinion, as a general thing, that those who are sent there go away much more vicious and degraded then when they first entered it. . The whole atmosphere of such a place is contaminated by the basest and most vile passions; and, notwithstanding the most laborious and unceasing efforts may be made by the Moral Instructed and others connected with it. vet so obtuse are the moral sensibilities of a large majority of the convicts, that but little progress has or can be made toward a reformation. While under restraint and the vigilant eye of the officers they do well enouah, but when once again free their old habits re turn to them and they are prepared, many of them, to rush deeper than ever into crime. ...... This being the case, we think that our law-makers should turn their attention to this subject, and devise some plan by which a reformation might be brought about in the character of many who, for the want of other means of punishment, are sent to the penitentiary. - . - - : . ; i -: " It is a sad fact that there are so many young men in our State Prison, and quite a number tinder the age of twenty-one years. From which, thrown as they are, with those hardened in crime and steeped in iniquity, but little can be expected of them in the future. It, however, the State would provide houses of refuge for such, where they may not only be punished but instructed in morals, many might be reclaimed. We believe that the Legislature of 1854 and 1855, did pass a law providing for the erection of a house of refuge, but owing to the peculiar wording ot a portion of it, it proved to be an abortion, and consequently nothing has been accomplished by it. We hope that the approaching legislature will take this - matter in hand, and give to it such attention as the great importance of it demands. . Let them recollect that although it may cost eoine-

thing, nevertheless it is their bounden duty Jo do all they can to advance the interest of the State in everything that tends to elevate the character of the people, and rebound to our future prosperity and happiness. 1'erre Haute Journal, .

Brother Jonathan at some of his Tricks. The London Netrs of the 16th contains a letter from St. Petersburg which makes the following remarkable disclosure : The result of the calculations lately made by the well-known astronomer, Professor Struve, of the University of Dorpat, relative to the true geographical positions of St. Petersburg and Moscow, and the distance between the two capitals of the empire is, that the actual length of the railroad is by astronomical ob'scrvation, no less than 88J versts (about 60 miles) shorter than its nominal length ot 1)117 versts, or, in other words, that the government on whose account the railroad was constructed, has had to pay about one seventh of the value, or twelve millions of roubles more than it ought to have paid. As the rolling stock of the St. Petersburg and Moscow Railway is furnished by an American company, who are paid for the same at so much per verst, it follows that in this quarter the government have been paying also a most fearful overcharge. The poles erected along the line to denote the distances have been systematically fixed in the wrong places so as to mislead both the government and the public. The Emperor was in the most violent state of excitement on learning the above, and gave immediate orders for the strictest investigation into the facts of the case to be made, with a view to inflict the most summary punishment on the parties inculpated in this nefarious transaction ; but s so many persons of the highest rank and importance are compromised in the affair, it is not likely that the investigation will be continued, but on the contrary the matter will be hushed up to prevent the public scandal of the real delinquents .being exposed and made to suffer the penalty they so richly deserve, tor the share they have taken in this atrocious fraud. Mr. Thomas Winans has, in a communication to the Baltimore Sim, denied in the most indignant terms the truth of the foregoing statements. He attributes them to the jealousy of English engineers, and asserts that as the route was surveyed by Russian engineers, even if there were errors committed, Americans cannot bo held responsible for this an incontrovertible argument. . .' SisT At a political meeting in Indiana the other day, a speaker named Long responded to a loud call and took the stand; but a big, strapping fellow persisted in crying out in a stentorian . voice, "Long! Long!" This caused a little confusion, but, after some difficulty in making himself heard, the President succeeded in stating that Mr. Long, the gentleman honored by the call, was now addressing them. "Oh he be d d!" replied the fellow ; "he's the little skeesicks that told me to call for Long !" This brought down the house. INDIANAPOLIS BIAieivETS. Corrected Every Friday Morning-, ' ' BY A.

ARRIVAL OF. N T E R GOODS! DE SECOND STOCK II O L M A N ' S ! Complete In Every Department, Including many New Designs In Shawls and Dress Goods ! SALES TO BE MADE 0 THE SMALL PROFIT PRINCIPLE. All persons in want of Elegant and Cheap Goods, will consult their own Interests by Calling at NO. 3, ODD FELLOWS' HALL, INDIANAPOLIS THE GLOBE THE OFFICIAL PAPER OF CONGRESS! I SHALL PUnl.lSH THE DAILY' G I. OHIO and the CONGRESSIONAL GLOBE and APPENDIX during the next session of Congress. The DAILY GLOBE will contain a report of llie Debates in bolh branches of Congress as taken down by reporters equul, at least, to any corps of shorthand writers in this, or In any oilier country. When the de- . bales of the day do not make more than forty-live columns, they shall apper in 'ho Dailt Globe of the next morning, which will contain, also, the news of the day, together with such editorial articles as may be suggested by passing events. : The Conoressional Globe and Appendix will contain a report of all the Debates in Congress, revised by the speakers, the Messages of llie President of llie United States, the Annual 'Reports of the Heads of the Executive Department, the Reports of Committees of Congress on important subjects of general interest, the Laws passed during tkie session, and copious indexes lo all. They will be printed on a double royal sheet, In book form, royal quarto size, each number containing sixteen pages, averaging 2,3fl7 words per page, The whole will make between 1,700 and 4.000 pages. 11 is believed that no book has ever been published at so low a rate. Last year I advertised In the Dailt Globe, for six months, and in about one hundred other newspapers in the United States, a rewtnl of $215. to be paid to any person who would produce a book published al so low a rale, and none was produced. The large number of copies subscribed for by Congress enables me to aford the Debates to subscribers so cheap. The Conoressional Globe and Appendix pass free through the mails of the United States, as will be seen by reading the following Joint resolution by Congress the 6th of August, 1K52 : JOINT RESOLUTION providing for the distribution of the Laws of Congress and the Debates ihereon : With a view to the cheap circulation of the laws of Congress and the debates contributing to the true interpretation thereof, and to make free the communication betweeu the representative and constituent bodies Be it resolved by the Senate and House of Representatives of the United States of Ameriea,in Congress assembled. That from and after the present session of Congress, the Conoressional Globe and Appendix, which contain the laws and tbe debates thereon, shall pass free through the mails so long as the same shall be published by order of Congress : Provided, that nothing herein shall be construed to authorise- the circulation oi the Daily Globe free of postage. Approved Augusl6, 1852. , - TERMS : Foi a copy of the Daily Globe, four months 43 00 For a copv for a less time, (per month) 1 00 For a copy of the Congressional Globe and Appendix du- , ring the sessiou..... 3 00 Bank notes, current in the section of the country where a subscriber resides, will be received al par. The whole or any part of subscription may be remitted in postage stamps, which are preferable to any currency, except gold or silver. Where bank notes under $5 cannot be procured, I will send two copies for $5. A paper will not be sent unless the money accompanies the order for it. I cannot afford" to exchange with all the newspapers that desire the Globe: but I will send the Daily Globe during (lie session to all who shall publish this prospectus three times before the first Monday of next December. Those who may publish should send their papers containing It to me, marked with a pen, to direct attention to it. The Congressional Globe and Appendix will be stereotyped; and, therefore, i shall be able to send the back nunibors for this session to all who may subscribe after the session commences; but if the first edition shall have been exhausted before ihe subscription money is receivedv I shall charge I additional per copy to pay the expense of putting the plates on the press. Subscriptions should reach me as early as the first week of December,to insure complete copies at the prices advertised above. 1 v JOHN C. RIVES. ... ' Washinoton, D. C , Oct. 12, 1858. OCI30.3W.
