GEN. McMULLAN, who {vas recently elected U. 8. Senator by the " eople’s Leg islature of Louisana, is an Indianasoldier. Since the war he has resided|in Louisana, was elected to the State Se‘ate in 1870, and hag heretofore been an aftive member of the Republican party. T'r usurpation ~of the negro Pinchback waj more than hig patriotic nature could edure. e ~ UNDER the “Local Opion” law of Penngylvania, a number of counties in that State are taking ste ‘gu to test the sense of thé people with |reference to granting or refusing licenge for the sale of intoxicating liquors. [One or two counties have already voted| on this ques tion. Clearfield county voted against li - cense by a majority of about six hundred. The contest bids fair to becdme quite animated, both sides perfecting their organizations for a vigorous campgign. ' JAMES PARTON, the histotian, writes to the New York Zribune tlat “ignorant suffrage at the South is brufal tyranny,— The South is our Ireland, and we are tak. ing a hellish vengeance upoh it.” Parton has hit the nail equarely op the head,— Giving the right of suffragé to the ignorant cotton-field hands of he South was an outrage on intelligence, jand has bro’t inestimable injury upon -tb country, Tt has corrupted and impoyerighed Southern State governments, and wil in all probs. bility precipitate a war of rhces. ‘

THE startling exposures |of corruptinn in the election of United States Senators by legislative bodies should arouso the people to the necessity of afchange in our fundamental law 8o as to make that cffice elective by a direct vote the people. No good reason exists why g U. S, Senator should not be thus chosen, finstead of aftording about one hundrefl individuals an opportunity to sell theis votes to the ‘highest bidder. Besides emoying this corrupting influence from legislative bodies, members would be elected with reference to their ability to pramote the best interests of the people, rather than with @ view to elevating this on that political huckster to a seat in the {United States Senate. We believe much good would result from such a change, and therefore hope that the press will atonce enter into & thorough discussion of this proposition. ONE after another are the leaders of the Bourbon:party being provided for by their republican brethren. | The latest re cipient of these political fivors is Dr, W, F. Sherrod, who was; on| motion ‘of Ja son Bazoo Brown, appoidied Clerk for the special committees of (he State Senate. Bherrod was one of those conscien. tious (?) Democrats whose patriotic devo. tion to- the_ “time honor principles of that grand old party” did not permit of his supporting the nominep of our nation: al convention. He accordingly identified himself with Bill Moreau and other political dead beats, becamp President of the Bourbon Btate convertion, and was nominated for Congressman-at large. He has now received his final reward—five dollars per day. The Dr. Heing accustom. ed to high living, the thirty piecos of silver previously awardel L ve o 1 course J long since been expended, | e

NOTES OF LEGISLATIVE DOINGS. 'The bill to root out quacks, and to elevate the medical profession, failed to pass the House by a vote of 38 to 41. : An effort will be made to make suitable provision for the incurably insane. Bills have been introduced in both Houses providing for the erection of a building in connection with the hospital for the insane for their proper accommodation. . | Druggists will no doubt be pleased to, learn that a bill bas pé.ssed the House to regulate the sale of drugs and medicines. It provides that medicines for external use ghall bear a red label, and that poisonous drugs shall bear a distinctive mark, and the word “poison” conspicuously displayed. 4

' A bill bas been introduced in the Senate providing that County Commissioners shall sit on the first Mondays in Jan uary, April, July and October, and if the business requirg it, they may sit ten days at each sessions Let it pass. e | A joint committee is to be entrusted with the duty of re-districting the State for judicial purposes 8o as to equalize the labors of the judges. Consent, provided ‘there is' to be no gerrimandering. Representative Wood wants to repeal the 4th section of the act of June 10th, 1852, which torbids the intermarriage of ‘whites and blacks. It is not stated wheth‘er Wood is actuated by a desire to ride into Congress on the back of a buck nigger, or whether he contemplates tying himself to the spron string ot some blushing culored damsel. - - - Alegislative Selon named Hollingworth

hus devised a scheme for vacating about two thirds of our public offices. He has introduced a bill in the House providing that persons elected to oflice shall take an oath to abstain from the use of intoxicat. ing liquors, and that any person holding office who shall indulge in the use of intoxizating liquors shall be removed from that position.. The bill may be feasible, but what in thunder would the Legislature do to maintain a q"uorum? . Praised be the economy of our Indiana Legislators, They raised their own sala: ries from five to eighfdollars per day, but when it came to fixing the pay of clerks, doorkeepers, &e., five dollars was deemed enough for the men who do the hard work. o ' o

Agricultural societies will be interested in learning that Senator Friedley,of Scott, has introduced a bill authorizing County Commisé/ion'ers to purcbaézc real estate for Fair grounds, at an expense not exceceding $5,000. We don’t beligve the bill will pass. L Senator Dittemiore has mtroduced a bill to provide for the organization of an ex perimental school for the education of idiotic and feeble-minded children. -It provides for the ixppointmefit by the Goyernor of three Trustees, that the institution may occupy the grounds opposite the Deaf and Dumb Asylum, and appropriate $5,000 for each of the years of 1873 and 1874. . : D The Committee on Banks and Banking have reported that the statement of the Bank of the State of Indiana showed that all the branches were in existence and in a healthy condition. -~ : - Among. the recently itroduced bills we find one to prevent fraudulent temovals of voters to carry elections in adjoining counties, wards and precincts, which ‘ought to pass. L : Representative : Thagyer, of Koscinsko county, made another effort, on the 224, to pass his anti quaok bill. He said : “The people " of my region are very anxious ror legislation on this subject, All the surrounding States have such a law as this bill proposes, and the result is that the State of Indiana is filled with quacks—those medical adventurers and vampires of the life of the more helpless classes.” His proposition was defeated by 47 against 45.. - : ’

Senator Beardsley, of Elkhart county, last week intréduced a bill for an act to provide for the public printing, regulating the prices to be paid therefor, for the election of a Public Printer, etc. The : bill provides that the Public Printer sheall hold office for two years; the Governor to appoint a commission to consist of two good ‘practical printers and one book binder, with a'salary of $3OO per year each, to examine and audit all bills. . Representative Stanley last Friday introduced a bill [H, R. 880] legalizing summons, executions and other process of law heretofore issued by Justices of the Peace in incorporated cities to the marshal of any such city, and protecting such marshals from injury on account of acting under cover thereof. The bill was referred to the Judiciary Committee. - = " A bill bas been introduced in the Senate making it unlawful for hogs to run at large outside of the owner’s enclosures. Senator Beardsley has introduced a bill by which Cemetery Associations are au thorized to acquire, invest and maintain a fund for the repair and keeping in order of their lots, but the principal of the fund shall not be reduced. - _ Senator Sarnighausen has introduced a very important and excellent bill tor an act to amend the third section of the act providing for the organization of County Boards, approved June 17th, 1852, prescribing the timie and manner of electing Boards of County Commissioners. Under ‘the provisions of this bill, County Commissioners shall be elected biennially, to hold office for two years—all now in office to serve out the time for which they were elected—each voter by one ballot to cast two votes, at his own option, whether for two persons of.one. : :

_ A New Temperance Bill, The House Committee on Temperance has reported a new bill to regulate the sale of intoxicatiag liquors. It requires the dealer to obtain a license for one year from the County Commissipners, which shall be conspicuously posted at his place of business, so that everybody can see whether or notit is valid or still in force. -The dealer, upon procuring his license, which be can not de except upon petition from a majority of voters in his ward or township, shall give a bond in the sum of $lO,OOO for the payment of all fines and forfeitures. It requires all saloons to be ~closed at 9 P. . and on Sundays and legal holidays. Any person making or aiding in making another drunk is liable for _the cost of caring for such drunken. person while 1o such condition, as well as for $2 for every day such person is incapacitated from ‘work by his drunkenness.

PARTY PROJECTS. i Legislation at the National Capital the present winter, shows a greater tendency than before to concentrate power in the goverrment, or in the party controlling the government. Instead; the time has come when much that has been delegated to the government or appropriated by it, may be with safety remitted to the peolk ‘ple. Look at the Postal Telegraph Proj. ect. Can that be a matter in which the

people are uninterested ? e " That combinations creating Amonopoli'fa and affecting the rights of the masses of the people, may be put under government al rc'striétlons, is not demied, but to sec the government itself grasping for these things for its own benefit, or rather that of the party sustaining it; is somewkat new and ‘much to be deplored. If,like France, we were but experimenting with a republican form of government, this would look a little Napoleonic. - It smacks “of treason, stratagem and spoils.” Of treason to the people, because under pretense of ecogomy to the government, and which is only. pretense, the purpose is to retain power. Of spoils, because continued power iby} such. stratagem means continued quili ~TIt woufld be more than charitable to suppose that such legislation was intend- | ed only Eor the good of the whole_pco})lc. It shows not only a mistrust of the people, but & disposition to betray them. ‘Not only thiq, but it is a confess'ionlof weiik'ness, and if the outs” become the “ins,” such legislation “will return to plague the inventor.” - !

Ills‘tei<l of the government’s absorbing individual enterprise, the tendeccy should be to the contrary. It is well known that individual enterprise brings to bear! the. most simple, the most; efficient, the most economical means for'the accomplishment of an oliject. The telegraph system, more complicated, more costly than the post effice, in the bands of individuals; exem, plifies our statement by its wholesome dividends. The Post: Office. Department of our government has been- for a long time, if not for all time, a debtor. 'Appropriations have always to be made to, meet its expenses. It would be no less likely, with the telegraph as an elephant

on its bands, to be a suppliant for further appropriations. Hand it over to the people, or to individual enterprise. Ormake its offices elective and responsible to the people as well as the government, "It can be made to pay its own way, if not ultimately to be a source of profit. :Let the telegraph be as it is. If it;asa moxfj)poly, soars too high, let the government clip its ‘_vvinz—,flrs@l Let the governmnent have a watch: ful oversight over all the institutions of the country—no one can object to, that ; but t,h;e people do not iv;mt all inferests gobbled up by it, to make sinecures for political dead ducks or party hacks. Let our government' be “of the people, l\‘yvthe, people, for the people.” LIBERAL: ‘ : Card from Mr. Scott. We take pleasure in complying with the request of Representative Scott to give ‘the subjoined card an insertion in our columus : . : ; The foilowing lines appeared in tfhe Na TIONAT: BANNER, January Bth, 1873, from the pen of the distinguished editor, J. B. Stoll ¢ 2 ; ; i

Our Tdist.inclfii,shed fellow-citizen, Hon. D. S, Scott, is a pro¥ressive man. About three yFars ago he emphatically declared that whenever “‘the nig-, ger” was endowed with the ri%ht of suffrage, he (Scott) was done voting. Well, the darkies have voted for several years, but Mr. Scott did not diseontinne the nraction af ehaving s wepabiivea vivho into the bzx)YuL-GOX. But he has “‘progressed? still farther: the other day he voted, as a legislator, fora darkey named +J. S. Hinton for the office of Canal|Trustee in preference to a white Republican, the Hon. Cyrus T. Nixon. / [ g Our distingaished editor, J. B, Stoll, is also a progressive man. At the time .he charges me with being opposed ‘to! the negroes voting he was hurling all the bit ter e'!l)ithets ‘e could think of at Horace Greeley, Julian, &c. He hasalso progress ed still farther: while a candidate for State Auditor last fall he voted tor Horace Greeley for President of the |United States. Verily this is a progressive age. ‘ D. 8. ScorT. This, of course, is as good a “defense” as Mr. Scott could be expected to make under the circumstances in which he is placed by bis vote for the darkey Hinton. As to the “progress” which lie espies in the political conduct oi the cditor of the Ban‘NER, We are quite free to admit that the fellowship between Greeley, Julian and ourself was somewhat peculiar and altogether of a verjg“grogressive"v character ; but there is just this in our favor, that we never threatened to ceass voting |f either of the gentlemen named-became politically asgociated with the organization of which we are proud to be a member, Indeed, we heartily rejoice over the union thus formed, while we happen to know that Mr. Scott has no more love (inwardly) for Sambo now than he had three years ago. The difference between Mr. Scott and ourself then is, that we voted for Gregl'ey from choice, and that he voted for the darkey because he lacked the pluck to stand up for what his convictions tell bim to be right. e

A Good Move. : Last Saturday, Senator Glessner, from the Joint Select Committee on redistricting the State for judicial purposes, reported|Bill No. 238. It divides the State into 36 judicial circuits, the counties of Northern Indiana being redistricted as follows : ‘ 6. Wells, Adams and Jay. 27. Huntington and Wabash, 28, Grant, Blackford and Miami. . 29, Cass and Carroll, - : 30. Benton, Jasper, Newton, Warren. 31. Lake, Porter, Stark and Pulaski. 32. Laporte and St. Joseph. 33. Marshall, Kosciusko and Fulton. 34. Elkbart and Lagrange. 35, Steuben, DeKalb and Noble. 36. Allen and Whitley. | L . The bill fixes the time of holding courts in the various counties, and - provides for holding special terme, if necessary. 5 ‘ It also transfers the jurisdiction heretofore held by Commoa Pleas Courts to the Circuits, and abolishes the offices of Common Pleas Judge and District Attoraey. All business pending in, the Common Piens Courts is transferred to the Circuit Courts, with the records, papers, ete. An election is ofdered to be held October 2, 1873, to elect Judges and Prosecuting Attorneys in place of such as may be holding by appointmentof the Governor, Cirouit and Common Pleas Courts that may be in session on the taking effect of the act are authorized to ‘continue in session until the expiration of the term. This bill is a most excellentfione, and should be speedily adopted by both Honges, = :

. A Roman Catholic priest of F't. Wayne, has received a present from the late Lcuis Napoleon, & magniificent gold and silver chalice, to be used in the cathedral in that city.

The Pennsylvania Legislature which Mr. Speaker Elliott says is a Republican not a Reform body, emplcys some three score of “pasters and folders,” at $6OO each for the session. These “pasters and folders” are known in the walks of life as Honorables, Colonels, Majors, Captains, Eequires, and High Privates, and are all eminent for loyalty. The pasting and folding is done, whenever any is to be done, by street boys, glad to egrn a shilling. Nothing remains to complete the abolition of the franking privilege but the signature of the President to the bill repealing it, which has now passed both Houses of Congress. With unusual docility, the .

THE LEAVEN in the bribery.lump is beginning to work. Articles are appear-— ing in some of the lowa papers calling “upon the Legislature to pass a resolu‘ion }asking Senator Harlan to resign bis seat, ‘owing to the revelations made in the Credit Mobilier investigation, concerning the way in which he got there. There are others who need to quit their seats, and among them are Caldwell and Oakes Ames, both-of whom should be expelled, the one for bribing a Legislature, the other for bribing Congressmen. The investigation of Caldwell has shown why some men want to go, to Gongress. The investigation of the Credit Mobilier has shown whas some men do after they get there, and why it is an object for candidates to expend large sums in a campaign, and even resort to bribery to secure their election —Chicago Tribune.

Mr. BoYER, ex member of Congress from Pennsylvania, voluntarily appeared befaré the Credit Mobilier Committee last Saturday. He bought for himself and his wife, at the suggestion of Mr. Durant;, 100 shares of Credit Mobilier stock, which he still holds. All the subsidiés and grants made to the Pacific Railroads had been voted before he became & member of Congress. He thinks his conduet right, and is sorry only that he did net buy more of the stock:

To pUT powN OiL Crorus.—Oil cloths should never be tacked down when first purchased. They have invariably been rolled, and of course will shrink some after being laid- Unroll them, place them smoothly on the floor, wrong side up, and use them so for a week, or even two.— Then turn them and tack.to the floor.— This method prevents their pulling up and cracking, as we often sce new oil cloth do. o b

“ WaaAT do you call that ?” indignantly asked a customer at a cheap restaurant, pointing at an object that he had discovered in his plate of hash. “Wristband with sleeve button attached, sir,” said the waiter briskly. “Well, do you consider that a proper thing for a man to find in his hash ?” asked the customer in wrath. “@Good heavens, sir!” criecl the waiter, “would you expect to find a ten dollarsilk umbrella in a fifteen cent plate of hash ?”

GOVERNOR WASHBURN, in his message. to the Wisconsin Legislature, argues that, under their Constitution, the people are the absolute masters of every railway in the . State. Corpurate powers in the United States are vast and overshadowing, be says, and a just cause of alarm; but, if Wisconsin railroads oppress the people, the Legislature can, if they will, always protect the pnblic, who, for their part, can always control the Legislature, 2

THE BOOK ABOUT AFRICA. There ig no part of the world so interésting to Christendom as the continent of ‘fifrica now is, Di. Livingstone, Barth, Cumming,/DuChaillu, and others had given it a peculiar interest already, when the wonderful expedition of the New York Herald, under Henry M. Stanley, and its marvelous success, gave to the topic the attention of all men everywhere. Here was a success of tel€graphy and of the press, superior to the power ol one of the most powerful and wealthy governments, and a demonstration of modern progress imposgible to gainsay. : ol | At this time, therefore, the desire to know as ~much of Africa as c.n be known, isvery genera], if ‘ngt universal among intel Igent people. To supply this demand for knowledge, the Union Publishing Cmngamy, of Chicago, have just issuned a volume “EXPLUORATIONS IN AFRICA,” which,.aB we judge from advance sheets that we have had the pieasure of seeing, will be, and deserves to be, unusnally and uncommonliy popular: The book is very comprehensive in plfn, and with sketches of thie lives of the noted African traveiers--with quite fulll biographies of Livingstone and Stanley—descriptions of the remarkable country, animals, vegetution, rivers, lakes, ect., ect., of a continent so long unknown ; with Dr Livngstone’s own account, rémarkably graphie, of his discovery of the true sources of the Nile; and Stanley’s full deseription of the singular *Lant of the Moon” in Equatorial Africa. .~ With all this, the book gives an amocant of interesting matter and information, leaving pothing to be desired by those who want to know all about this portion of the globe. t | A W, M.
