Rerick of the L:lgrung:e Standard is the only Granger connected with the press of this Distriet, and he not a very zealous one at that. L R Tur Lebanon Pioneer speaks of Jack Thomus as the “Negro Baptist.” Not much of a Baptist, Bro. Smith; ~you should have said “rapist.” There is something of a difference between thése two teérms. ; B ~ Tue nomination of lun. Morrison R. Waite as Chiet Justice of the United States was confirmed by the:Senate without a dissenting: vote. We believe this handsome compliment worthily bestowed. : !

Wi call especial attention to the prospectus of the In_diun:ﬂbu]h Jornal, the leading republican paper of the State. ThelJonrnal is i well-con-dageted paper :uigl sufliciently orthodox to suit’ the most devoted partisan of the republican persuasion. : % e — b — Misor SAvLER has introdnced a bill in Congress to amend the act entitled “An act to revise, consolidate and amend the statutes relating to patents and <:qpyi'igh‘ts, approved July Bth, 1870.” = A copy of this bill may De seen at our oflice by': those having an intereést in matters pertaining to patents. : e i !

-Froy certain ‘ﬁnystvriuu’s” remarks in the Mt. Vernon Democrat we infer that our esteemed friend, Tom Collins, has taken unto himself a wife. We must confess that'this, to us, is semething of a surprise—Tom being such a handsome young man that we believed him to have becn “oobbled il‘i)" long, long ago. o

ATAviNG fally sustained our position on the legal advertising question, we can charitably afford to let the editor of the' Bra have the last word, withou even noticing his feeble atfempt to escape from the vesponsibility of commencing the controversy.—\When the writers of those letters once complain of the use made thercot, it will he ample time to justify our action.— Sapienti sat. ’ L ;

We venture the assertion that My, MeCain will prove a faithiul, honest and obliging Postmaster, -

We ought not to complain of Waite after Cushing, perhaps, but why under the sun conldn’t Grant have chosen Wi, M. Evarts, J. Edwards Piervepont, Judge Davis, or some one of the illustrious persons from. whom the country supposed, of course, he would make a sclection 2-South Bend Reyister. : =

T'hat is-a problemy we cannot under-

take to solve. Yet, we believe that inem:m)' respects Mr., Waite is better suited for that exalted position than cither Evarts or Pierrepont.. He possogses what-cannot justly be claimed for thése gentlemen, viz: an entirely impartial wmind. 2

CErsewnere we publish o number of extracts from jdemocritic and republican payers, the tenor of which indicates that the people are far from being satisfied with the action of Congress in not making a elean sweep of the salary grab. It had beensearnestly (»xpéci[@:l that President.: Grant

would express a willingness tohave his own salary reduced to the former standard, hut in this reasonable hope the country has been serely disappointed. lad the repeal been made complete, much of ‘the former respect for men in high official pogitions might have been restored; Lut as it stands to-day, we believe the people will be slow to addpt milder views than those so emphatically expressed during the past ten months. A few terse sentences in acknowledgement ofsthe popular will would have gainel President Grant thousands of friends. ¥ 1

DunriNG theprogress of a trial at Indianapolis, in which Ham Conner was plaintift and Dick Bright defendant, the latter charged one of the attorneys, Judge Sol. Claypool, with telling a lie, which insult the affronted attorneyresented by saying that if Dick were anything but a felon he (Claypool) would administer him (Diek) a threshing: At this the valiant Richard took hold of Claypool, but the two were promptly separated before bodily “harm-eould be inflicted upon either. Owing to the great excitement then prevailing, Judge Perkins adjourned . court until the following day, when he fined Bright in the sum of $250 for icontempt, entirely exonerating Clay‘pool from any and ali blame for the disgraceful oceurrence, Bright and -Claypool (who are both Democrats) have not been on friendly terms for . several years, owing to the fact that " the latter took agconspicuous part in bringing suit ‘against certain (then) ~ ftate officers for the recovery of vas ‘gious sums of money alleged to have _ been improperly appropriated by them. i Considevable excitement was created at Indianapolis ia consequence of this scrimmage.

. THAT CONTROVERSY. i ~ There can be but little doubt that the readers of the BANNER have been presented with all they care about knowing with reference to the contro- | versy opened by ‘Mr. €. G. Fait. 'We | havethus far given all sides a hearing, " not-because the subject matter was of ‘ special importance to the general reader, but'more especially to gratify the anxiety of those who felt a desire to "test their skill in a controversial combat. TMaving thus far studiously i avoided comments on either of the several versions, and maintaining, [tl.n'(mglm-ut,, the position of a silent (ﬂ,)ser\'ei', we feel ‘assured that a few passing notices from the “chair edito- ‘ rial” will notprove entirely unaccept- | able to-our patrons. : :

1. The delivery of a masonie lecture in this place was seized by Mr. lait as a suitable opportunity to not only assail the position of the lecturer, but to express his intense hatred of seeret societies generally. ‘We consented to the publication of Mr. Fait’s communication upon the assumption that Prof. Ray would return to our midst and correet whatever misrepresentations, might have been made-of his lecture. A discussion upon the points therein contained would have been both instructive and of mutual advantage. ' G

<2, Prof. Ray’s time being occupied (\l3o\)’l!(’l‘2{, one of our citizensf—'mﬁ a Mason—asked and obtained leave to (puhlish a rejoinder to Mr. Fait’s com- }‘ niunication. This rejoinder, it will be remembered, was not a defense of masonry, but was chiefly devoted to a sharp criticism of Mr. Fait’s avidity to “break a lance” with the advocates of secret societies. “ITomo,” and many otheys, argued that the scAntYs” had time and ugzli/n brought their emissaties intoourmidst, and although these speakers or lecggrers had denounced, villified ahd mi“n'vnted Masons und Odd Fellows -without stint, no one rushed into print to refute or denounce their utterandes. -

8. After Fait and “ITomo” had each heen heard twice, we believed it was time to end the controveysy ; but Fait claimed that inasmuch as “Homo” had made several personal thrusts at him, he ought to be attorded an opportunity to “vindicate himself.” o this we consented, upon the éxpres‘sed stipulation that o new matter should he introduced and that he must confine himself exclusively to the charges preferred by “ITomo.” - So much we deemed due and gladly conceded Mr. TFait, it being our conviction that every man is entitled to defend himself in all cases wherein lifs ¢haracter may have been assailed. '

4. Tlad Mr. Fait confined himself strictly to the prescribed limits, the controversy would ere this have been ended. But instead of being content with « coneige denial and refutation of each and every charge preferred :iguinst him by “Homo,” he foolishly exhibited to publie gaze his trials and tribulations in the chureh from which he was some time since expelled. Ile went fartirer, by arraigning his co= laborer in the cause of anti-masonry, Rev. R. Fauvot, for the part taken by that gentleman in trying to avert his client’s expulsion. This, upon mature deliberation, Mr. Fait will not fail to recognize as an egregious Dblunder. ITe who is engaged in war is not consideredd wise. when he invites the opening of Latteries that would otherwise have remained silent.

5: It was both imprudent and improper to take Mr. Faurot teo task because “ITomo” (who is certainly not in communication with Faurot) -alleged that Mr. Fait had “betrayed his ministerial counselor.” 1t would, therefore, he manifestly unjust were we—however anxious to have this controversy brought to a close—to deﬁy Mr. Faurot a hearing through the same channel that his integrity as a ministerial counselor had been asaatled. = :

6. We also feel and believe that Mr. Fait committed &’ wrong in dragging the name of Rev. (i. W. Chapman into his.controversy with “ITomo.” That gentleman was not a party to the writing of the “ITomo” letters; nor is! there any “lodge obligation” existing between these gentlemen. The diffepences between Chapman and Fait were not discussed or referrved to by “ITomro”; hence any and all allusions to and animadversions upon Mr. Chapman were irrelevant to the subject and transcended the restrigtions under! which we consented to the publication of a third communicution.

7. There is one point upon which, above all others, a correction is due in these pr()n}ises. We hm\"e reference to Mr. Fait’s'studied attempt to con--vey the impression that he was expelled from the Christian Church on account of his uncompromising antimasonie proclivities. This is manifestly not the case,as is cile;u‘ly demonstrated by Mr. Faurot, who is as intensely anti-masonic zx{y Fait; but who nevertheless became satisfied that ‘his client had gone too far by plunging himself heudlbng intg a quarrel with his brethren in the ¢ wreh who chanced to be members of seeret societies, and therefore d manded a concession of repentance olrl_ the p:u"t of Fait.- This concession, :{l5 we learn, Mzr. Fait made, but a few |days later retracted and was thcrefo/'e expelled —not because he was an a 1 ti-mason-— but for “bringing odium{ and _¢ontempt upon the church.” | i -~ We pen these lines not i 1 a spirit of partiality or prejudice, nor from 4 de. sire to weaken Mr. Fait lin his lfrotracted controversy; bu solely for thejpurpose of setting things right.bef<?re the public. Inso doing, we have almed to confine ourselves strictly to the points touched upon during the progress of this ¢ontroversy. “Whether or not the church erred in expelling Fait, is not for us to determine ; neither would the public at large he engybled to judge fairly as to his guilt oy i‘;'mqqe,x_w,el without a full history of the origin and progress of the squahble, : £ T ' St - A word or two more, and we will dismiss the subject, The wide range

i which this controversy:has taken, and the many bitter expressions resulting ktherefro}m, should convince Mr. Fait ‘and all others likewise situated that a hasty resort to the columms of a ' publi¢ print i$ neither expedient nor l‘f proﬁ‘table; It §cztl'cel§'tcvel' subserves t the purpose for which such procedures are -instigated. ;Tlie_re' are no results ‘\to compensate Mr. Fait’s efforts in | this particular instance. True, he has | informed the public of his difficulties l with the church, with Chapman, and I with others; he has also freely ex- ' pressed his abhorrence of secret soci‘eties. But; on the other hand, he calll ed upon his head the wrath of “ITomo,” ‘ and now he is confronted by Bro. * Faurot. In the mean time; not a solitary Mason has here renounced the l square and compass; mnot an Odd IFellow has repudiated the three links; Good Templars adhere to their faith, and the Christian Church is moving along as though nothing had happened to mar the happiness and peace of its members. i - ;

. The Gréat Air Line Railroad. It may perhaps not ! be generally known to the readers of the BANNER th;xf some time ago a bill was presénted to Congress asking that bodyto “grant a charter for a proposed doubletrack, steel freight route between New York and Chicago. This project is of' great interest to the people of ]_ilkh:u"t'i Noble, dnd DeKalb counties, througli “which the contemplated road .is to be loeated. As mapped out; the line cannot pass much farther than & mile or so from Ligonier. [From a statement hy | Abner Taylor, ¥sq., of Chiéago, we Jearn the following particulars of this j'gigzmtic project : Ly ‘ The road is to be, according to 4,\11'.. }’l.‘;lyl«‘nj “a steel, double-track freight i line to begin with, and if we ¥do;zm.y_ passenger husiness we shall build one l or more tracks forits accommodation. “For that matter, if the echarter is granted under it, we can lay down as many tracks as we choose.” - The direction of the road will be hs near an air line as possible. Nature has selected the course. “After turning the point of the-lake, (Mr. Taylor says) the nearer you follow the straight lige the more the conformation of the surface accommodates itself to the requirements of a railroad. We shall have no elevation above 80 feet to the - thile, while on the New York Central theere are places where it is 90 feet to the mile, and on the Pennsylvania Central 110 feet, while the Erie has also, I believe, elevations 90 feet to themile? . e

As to distance, the cliarter provides that the road must not ‘exceed 850 miles, but it 'is believed the distance can be brought down to 800, which would be from 113 to 188 miles less than by -any other of the present great trunk lines. Two surveys have already been -made; from Chicago to . n et live Al Akron, Ohio, and . from that point to New York—thie ascertained distance being 820 miles. Thedireetion is thus indicated by My. Taylor: : “The starfing point. in ‘Chicago; is andecided. . One survey begins at Lake station, a few miles south of the city. Irom there we shall run Sonth of the Michiganr Southern and leave South Bend abont ten iniles to tlie north, Then, proceeding in a straight line, without the least reference to settlement or even towns of considerable population, we shall ¢ross the track of the Wabash & Western at or near Napoleon, O. From thence we go straight to Akromn, 0., and shall cross the Pennsylvania line at or near Youngstoewn.: Then straight on to Williamsburg, Pa., and in as divect a line as possible to New York. On such a track as we. propose to lay,if we run passenger trains, we propose to'make the trip in 24 hours, where now 38 atre required.” - . ! = | v g Ly The charter provides for a capital stock of $£100,000,000; the cost of the road is estimated at 860,000,000. The company asks Congress to remit the duties on steel rail and grant it power : .- Sl . to condemn land, in retuin for which the company agrees to carry the mails and dp other government business at the'?g,@o\:orn‘lnent’s own figures. By grzmt{m;g' the' charter Congress will have pawer to regulate the company so far as all governimental business is concerned. - 4

Mr. Taylor says the project is very favorably received by Congress, nearly all the members being in favor of an air line freight route. As to the prospects: of thie Dbill being passed, Mr. Taylor expresses himself thusly: - C“lf Congress is let alone and not! subjected to railroad influence, I think it will pass. But Vanderbilt and Tom Scott Have not yet been heard from, and they are a good deal like some back counties in an election, apt to. change the result. Of course all the railroad interests will oppose it, and that opposition is mighty. But while they may succeed in killing our particular bill, they can’t kill this mevement;y for this road sooner‘ or later is bound to be built, as the necessities of the case demand it.” B A road of tiis kind is certainly desirable, and would be of iucnlculablf) benefit to-'the country.. At the same time, Congress should be very guarded in conferring authority upon such a gigailtic , corporation as this sone would of necessity he. The utmost restrictions should be imposed upon the company before granting the desired charter. = ] - D——— A MOVEMENT is on foot to have the day for the inauguration of the President changed from the 4th of March to the second Wednesday in May, and also to have the Presidential election held in October instead of November. The following petition is being 'eirculated and signed throughout the. country: : ’ To the Senntje and House of Reprcsenthtives inthe Congress of the United StatBs, convened: __We, the subscribing citizens of the United States, do, for various good and sufficient reasons, ask to have the term of the Short Session of Congress extended into the . month of May; and that the “Inauguration Day” of President of+the United States shall hereafter be on the second Wednesday of May, instead of the'4th day of Marel ; and also that the general election be held eagﬂliy in ,t%g_ month of October; and we desire that all appropriations and necessary legislation be had to farry out the objeet of this petition.

- FROM WASHINGTON. | - Mr. Waite was unanimously con- | firmed as Chief Justice by the Senate | on the 22d, nine Senators not votihg. | Senator Sumner made a sglemn speech, & enforeing the duty of Senators to in- | form themselves unmistakably of the | fitness of the gentleman whose name " was before them, and furnished the ! praetice for this precept by declining | to vote. The débate in the Senate on the currency question has elicited almost | incredible nongense from some of the L honorable Senators, but Mr. Merrimon, | of North Carolina, must be conceded to have surpassed all the others. Some of his associates have argued for inflation, and others for the opposite policy of a resumption of specie payments, but he is not to be confined to ~one side of a question, and boldly an‘nounces himself to be in faver of both an inflation. of the currency and an immediate © resumption of specie payiments. The issue of one hundred millions of currency is the step he recommends to bring about specie payments on the 4th of July, 1876. i | The statement of President Grant’s views eoncerning the Louisiana’ case is evidently inspired and authentic.— It contradiets the report that he was in favor of having a new election ordered by Congress. Louisiana, he holds, is in the Union, equal to all the other States, and entitled to protection from illegal or unconstitutional interference by any branch of the Federal Government, in¢luding, of course, the Executive, although the -President doesnot mention that. This is a new wrinkle in Presidential polities, and much better’ than the notion of the Executive a few months ago. The President’s characterization of the last election jin the State as an organized fraud from the beginning to the end for the benefit of those who now hold the Government, cannot be agreeable to his friendsin the New Orleans. Custom-House or to Senator Morton. The special message which isnow in preparation will be simply a statement of the facts of the Federal proceedings ‘in-Loisiana. i The Ilouse Committee on agriculture have appointed d sub-committee on the Grange movement; which will at once begin the investigation of a vast pile of memorials, petitions, ete., already received. These papers. relate to transportation, ware-house frauds upon grain-shippers, commissions tariff, the national banks, the labor question, extravagance in national, State and municipal expenditures, and a vast collection of minor matters. ‘ A strong force of Indians is in Washington to lobby against the Oklahoma territorial scheme.

* The popular pressure (saysthe Morgan county Gazetle) has nccomplisheﬁd something in bne direction, even if it fails in another, and the people can say, with hearts not yet quite estranged, “look upon them, angels of little children.” That is, taking present action as an indication of future intention. The U. S. Senate has repealed the salary grab-—placing wages of members of Congress at thelate figure, $5,000 per ahnum. The repeal was opposed by 3 Republicans,2 Democrats, and 1 Liberal.. While the questiol_i of rélinquishing thie “swag’ was under cmlsidomtion, ‘Senator Pratt, of this State, gidve utterance to these i‘xlzlxx)y' and honest words: “I \'e*.lxtlll'dtlle assertion that what we pay ourselves, putting it in at the lowest figure named, would support Ji\'e‘:_ih\'emge families the country over.” iThe ITouse, o, the 13th inst., coneurred in the detion of the Senate by a heavy majority; and the President, on the 21st, gave this bill his ofiicial approval. The repeal, be it understood, affects only members of Congress. The salary of the President, and Supreme Judges, raised whei the grab was passed, remain ab the figures adopted at that time. The salaries of Congressmen have been fixed on the old basis—&s,ooo a year and ,nilepge. This ‘making fish of one and flesh of another, is not exactly correct in 1;1'311011)1«5. it was right to make a reduction in the, case of, Congressmen—the President, &0., should have shared the same fate, ~ At any rate, if Ulysses L. is allowed to retain his portion of the “swag,”—sso,000 a year —Cohgress should cut down the appropriattionéz made for his benefit, in the shape of sunplying him with green-houses, repairs of carriages, reed for horses, pay for servants, fuel, light, &e., &e., &e. ‘

Death of Dr. Livingstone, 5 LoNDON, Jan. 26.—Intelligence has been received of the death of Du. Livingstone, in the interior of Africa. He died of dysentery while traveling from Lake Bembe to.

He had been: traveling over a partially submerged country, and after wading four days through the water was seized by illness, of which he died. : —The Chicago 7ribune of yesterdaysays upon this subject: “The usual doubt has been expressed of the truth of the report of Livingstone’s death, but must yield to the official dispatch which was received by the British Government. yesterday from Zangibar.

Hon. John B. Howe on the Resumption. : of Specie Payments. : llon. John B. Howe, of Lima, has written several essays on the financial situation. Last week he published an article in the Lagrange Standard: on the resumption of specie payments from which we quote the following: Wlien ought we begin to prepare the way for specie payments, and how long a time shall we spend in getting there ? My answer to this question is: “We ought to begin at once, or say on the first day of July, 1874, and ‘we ought to'intend to spend five years on the road, although we may arrive there ome year sooner. .As the most direct as well as the shortest distance between two given pointsis a straight line, so the most directroad to specie payments is to reduce the paper circulation, by retaining a given amount of greenbacks-—not more than five millions—monthly, and borrowing, if the necessities of the government should at any particular time require it. As soon asthe volume of greenbacks is reduced to such a point that ~they and bank notes'and geld aré on a par, and continue so —the treasury at the same time yedeeming all greenbacks offered in gold—then, of course, and not till then, shall we have arrived at specie payments. :
