FLSEWHERE We publish an article from the Warsaw Undon recommending Thomas J. Merritield, Esq., of Valparaiso, for the office of Supreme Judge for the INifth Distriet of Tudiana. We can

heartily endorse allour Warsaw con{l‘lll]i(l]';ll'.\' says in commendation of My, Merritiell, knowing him to be a lawydr of fine abilities and a gentleman of many excellent qualities.

Wi understand that Dr. T. Davenport, of Winsaw, has concluded to try his hiek as a candidate for Secretary afi state, Before the Democratic State c¢onvention, . The Doctor is a very clever gentleman and would prove a faithful and eflicient officer. He will have to contend with Col, A. T. WhitTesey and J.

Tue Repubiican State Convention met at Indianapolis yesterday. The old State officers weére probably renpminated, though at- the time of going to press we were not in possession of the proceedings. The most serious difliculty. encountered was the adjustiment- of the temperance and financial question. The committee on resolutions was compaosed :’ly‘lmost exclusively. of radical temperance men. © Miss LAURA REAM, the Indianapolis - correspondent of the Cincinnati Commercial, writes th:lfft “the contest between Mr. sShoemalker and Mr. Stoll has begun to assume the aspect of a personal wrangle.” I there is such a thing as a “personal \\'l;ung‘lb" between Mr: Shoemaker &l;i!(l the editor of this paper, it must‘l)evmw-si‘«led affair and confined exclusively to Indianapolis. We ineline to the opinion that Miss Laura has drawn very largely upon her imagination, ! -

W invite, especial attention to the comments of the Indianapolis Senti-nel-on the loth of June convention.— [Having !)l'i,‘,:‘in‘:l(.l’(_l hat niovement and labored most zoalu‘llsly to render the same i sueeess, we can readily appreciate the Sentinel’s chagrin over the deplorable failure whieli attended its eftorts. It oceurs to us that if the leading spirits of the convention had relied more upon the snggestions of the Nentinel than they did upon the advice of- somef others, the result have been quite different. i :

SWould it not be eurious if Presidént (hdint became the condidate of the Demoeratic party and the hardmoney Republicans at the néxt Presidential election 27 It is Senator Jones’ paper, the Alta California, that puts the question. Ly Yes, such a thing would assuredly be eurious—very, wery curious. But it may as well be abandoned now as at a'later period. One good act will not atone for the many transgressions of President Grant. Besides, the people would turn in disgust from a party’ which made the one-term principle an. issue and four years later advocated a third term for the very man whom they sought to deny a second.

- BECAUSE B. Dreyfus & Co., of California, ‘are largely interested in the manufacture of American wines, and would like to sell the l)l'I}(llICtS of their vineyards 50 or 55 cents péi}f gallon above the real value, -they modestly ask one of the California representatives in Congress to fix the duty on lmported wines so as to secure Messys. Dreyfus & Co. that little bonus! And hpcn?xse Messrs. Dreyfus & Co. possess considerable wealth and perhaps wield no inconsiderable amount of-influence in running theé pplitical machine, the :urcmnmo(_lzitiljg M. C. forthwith applies himself to the gratification of Lis disinterested constituents’ most ardent wishes! To suchiuses are our modern “statesmen” put while servin; (as they sacredly pledge: themselves ) the best interests of the whole pecpiel el = el & R i - IT 18 QUITE PROBABLE that a strong effort. will be ;made to endorse th nomination of Messrs. Ifenderson and Mitchell at the 15th of July convention. Both gentlemen being eminently

‘worthy of the respective positions to “‘which they have already beén assigned, Athe Demoeracy would have much t¢ gain and nothing to lose by giving them an endorsement. The chief obstacle in the way- is the abominable platform adopted by the “Independcents.” IHenderson has already accepted the nomination, and must be presumed to endorse the declaration of faith put forth by the “Indepencents.” Mitehell has not yet accepted; but we know him possessed of' too much good sense to endorse some of the garbage in that most astonishing composition of modern political literature, Assuming that the democratic - platfogia will be construeted of sounder material, it puzzles us to know how to place these gentlemen 80 as to preserve i proper equilibrium, We throw these hints that th® political ‘doctors may ‘give this subject timely and adeguate consideration; :

THE INDEPENDENT STATE TICKET. 1 Noyes S. Wuitg, the nominee of the Indiana “Independents” for Secre- ‘ tary of State, is a resident of Terre Haute and 68 years of age. He is a pioneer of Southiern Indiana,residing in Warrick county until the breaking out of the rebellion, pursuing the avocation of a carpenter, and at times conducting a small farm. When the war came Mr. White enlisted as a private in the 42d regiment of Indiana volunteers, and was made a sergeant of the company. Inconsideration of his age, he was detailed to act ab steward of the Military Hospital at Evansville, where he remained on duty till the close of war. In the spring of 1866 he was nominated forcity clerk of Evans- ) ville, by the workingmen, but was de‘fmtml by the republican candidate, there being no democratic ticket.in the field. About one year aftéerwards he was appointed mail agent on the Evansville & Crawfordsville railroad, which position he tilled aceeptably until relieved, after the accession of General Grank to the presidency. He then located at Terre laute, where he was nominated for mayor by the workingmen in 1873, but was forced to retive from the race in consequence of charges- preferred against him of having embezzled funds of the independent order of Odd Fellows, while treasurer of alodge during his residence in War rick county. The same ‘churgvs were made against him while ruuning for clerk in Evansville, and contributed largely to his defeat. Sergeant White is an effective public speaker, and in his younger days took a prominent part in the political discussions in south-west Indiana. f

. IHon. EBeNkzer, HENDERSON, the candidate for Auditor of State,is about 43 years of age and a resideirt of Margan county. 'The Sentinel says of him that “he is a fine specimen of manhood, with a frank, open, and rather eaptivating expression of countenance, and is emphatically what is comprehended by the term, “a popular man ” Tre is, not a practical farmer, 'th()ug'h owning and controlling two very fine farms, and is’thoroughly identified with the farmers’ movement. Ile has sucessfully followed the business of pork packing for several years past. In 1868 he was elected to the State Senate from the counties of Morgan and J dlmsun, and was an earnest advocate of the fee and salary bill, which was passed at the legislative session of 1871.7 Mr. llenderson has heen a leading Democrat and is a man of unquestionable integrity. lle took a bold stand against demoecratic corruptionists two years.ago and rendei-éd gallant service in that direction. ¢ The affairs of State would be placed in goodl hands if entrusted to “Eb.” Capt. R. (. BeNxNerT, of Steuben county, is the nominee for Treasurer of State. Ile has heretofore been a zealous Republican, owns alarge farm, is @ man of considerable wealth, was captain in the 44th Indiana regiment during the war, is about 42 years of age, identified himself with the Grangers, and would make a creditable county treasurer, but his negr meigh‘bors and friends question his ability to filt the “big office” for which he was nominated at Indianapolis.” Capt. J. A.S. MrrcoeELL, the nomineec for Attorney General, is well known to the people of Northern Indiana as an able lawyer and a liberal, progressive Democrat. Ile is a native of Pennsylvania, served his country faithfully and honorably in the army, and is universally esteemed for his many excellent qualities. lle was not a candidate for the position, and having never been consulted in regard to the matter was naturally taken by surprise. As to his fitness for the pOsition, there can be no question. Indeed, we feel certain that he would be a vast improvement over any of the gentlemen who filled that office since 1865. If endorsed by the 15th of July convenfion, as he probably will be, his election may be considered assured.— In that event, Indiana will have an Attorney General whose horor, integrity, and ability will not be impeached: CLARKSON DAvils, for Superintendent of Public Instruction, is a native Hoosier and a resident of Spiceland, Henry county. He was brought up on a farm, but subsequently qualified himself for the position of academic instructor. Politically he is a Republican, and personally an energetic sort of a man. eis now 37 years of age and follows the occupation of a canvassing agent for a New York publishing house largely interested in securing frequent changes of text-books. We question his qualifications for the successorship of Mr. Hopkins. Of Judge HorAck P. BIDDLE it is useless to speak, he being extensively known as one of the ablest jurists in the State. llis acceptance is extremely doubtful. He has,in years gone by, been a decided Republican, but two years ago identified himself with the Liberal movement.. He was bitterly opposed to Grant and a warm friend of Mr. Greeley. J udge Biddle resides at Logansport, is wealthy, and devotes almost his entire time to literature.

Tue Chicago T'ines, in its review of. the “Independent” ticket, attributes Capt. Mitchell’s strength at home mainly to his relationship with John H. Baker. Where the Captain is best known, there exists no necessity for a correction of such senseless twaddle. Ilis reputation as a lawyer and his sterling .integrity as a man underlie the popularity and strength which he enjoys among his, neighbors; no relatiopship need be invoked in his behalf. The people honor and esteem Capt. Mitchell because he has proved himself worthy of their confidence, and not because he: chances to be related to Mr. Baker or Mr. Defrees.— “Honor to whom honor is due.” ;

It 1s PROPOSED to make inflation of tlhie currency®an issue in the election of members of Congress next fall. We aretn favor of the proposition; the people can then degide whether they want a genuine or a fraudulent currency. We are also in favor of introducing into the contest the civil rights bill as a leading issue. S

“THE AMERICAN’, OR ANTI-SECRET SOCIETY PARTY. A few weeks since there was asseinbled in the city of Syracuse, N. Y., a national convention of those who are opposed to all secret organizations and in favor of a new political party. The convention, so we learn, was fairly attended and remained in session several days. From the proceedings of the last day we append the following:

The Anti-Secret Convention to-day uﬁopted resolutions declaring that in all seeret oath-bound fraternities, including Grangers and secret temperance societies, the Convention recognize a conspiracy against all who do not belong to them, and a standing menace to the religion of Jusus Christ; expressing special opposition to speculative Free Masonry ; refusing to vote for Masons to civil oflice, and agreeing to raise ten thousand dollars for the support of a general agent and lecturers. Members’ fees were fixed at twenty-five cents a year, and life meinberships, ten dollars. - A letter tothe President was adopted, to be signed by the officers, protesting against the proposed Magsonic dedication of the (C‘hicago public buildings. The afternoon session of the AntiSecret Society Convention was t_[tmed into a political meeting. e | Mr. Blanchard submiited a preamble and resclutions for the formation of a National political party opposed to secreb societies. - Afteralongdebate and some amendments the report was adopted. ' The name of the party to be “The American,” and a platform of principles is to be framed by a committec of one from each State. i A National Convention is to be called to nominate Presidential candidates. e : Debate was very warm: on a proposition to embody the name (God in the Constitution as .a plank in the platform, which was tinally addpted. Indianapolis was selected as the place, and: the third Wednesday in August next the time for holding a National Convention to adopt a political platform for the American party. - Pittshurgh was selected as the place for holding the next annual Convention. Adjowrned, sine die.

THE FOURTH.—On ){miduy evening last the Hook and Ladder Company met at the Town lall, and proceeded to make the necessary arrangements for celebrating the glm'i(_ni.»"dny, (provided that the business men of the town subscribe enough of the “Ready John” to pay expenses) by appointing the following committees: Finance— J.

MR. A, €. HEsING and Gen. Lieb, prominent German editors and politicians; of (‘ltnic;igo, recently held a conference in that city with several editors of influential demoecratic journals of Illinois, when the practicability of, reorganizing the democratic party was discussed. Mr. Hesing advocated a reorganization of the party, hecause he believed it was the only one which could keep down the puritanical element and guarantee the peculiar freedom the Germans demand. lehad no faith in an Independent party, and promised, if the Democratic party were placed upon its feet again, to give it all the German votes, feeling cofifident that it would carry the state in the next general election by 35,000 majority. Some of the editors favored the proposition, and others did not. Vi ; !

NSupreme ;-‘;rnrt Judgeship., At the next October election there is to be elected a Judge of the Supreme Court from the sth Supreme Court District eteated by the last Legislature. The Counties: comprising ‘the District are the following: Lake, Benton, Porter, Laporte, St. Joseph, Elkhart, Kosciusko, Marshal], Stark, Jasper, Newton, Pulaski, Fulton, Wa‘bash, Miami, Class, Corroll, Lagrange, Steuben, DeKalb and Noble. The Judge is to be elected by the electors of the entire State, but he must reside within the district for' which he is to be elected. Among the names which we have heard most frequently and favorably mentioned as suitable to be placed upon the Democratic ticket for that office, is that of Hon. T. J. Mdrrifield, of Valparaiso. Mr. Merrifield is too well and too favorably known to the bar and people of Northern Indiana to need any commendation from us. He stands high in the estimation. of both bench and bar forlegal knowledge and ability, while his character for homesty, fairness and integrity is beyond reproach from any quarter.— We heartily second the movement in favor of his nomination.— Warsao Union., - 3

— et (e The Currency Bill. WASHINGTON, June 14—The currency gquestion is still much’ debated. It has become a general and settled belief that no reportthat can be made by the Conference Committee will be adopted, while there is some reason to believe that the Committee will not maiie any report whatever. Congress cannot, or will not, pass any measure that will receive the President’s approval.. Everybody is satisfied of that, and there is, therefore, no reason why powder should be burned. There is enough to do in the seven working days that remain of the session without frittering away any time on the currency question. It is' thought quite likely that the Senate will pass a bill providing for the redistribution of the curreney, but it will fail in the House. The inflationists appear confident as ever that in the appeal they propose to make to the country this fall, they will be successful.

Tie Ligonier BANNER, of last week, says it understands that Dr. Davenport,of Warsaw,is not averse to being a candidate for Congress in- this District. If the BANNER had said a candidate for Secretary of State it would have been correct. The doctor will be a candidate for the latter office, and we know of no other gentleman in this part of the State that we would rather see have'it. Ile possesses all of the qualifications and would be.an honor to the position.—Goshen Democrat.

While working on the roads near Hecla on Tuesday of last week, a difficulty arose between Oscar Palmer and one Blain, whereupon Palmer struck Blain with a hard substance, breaking his jaw in two places. Palmer was arrested and held to bail in the sum of $5,000, Blain it is thought will recover.— Whitley Co. Commercial,

—Acecording to accounts per telegraph, there is considerable hard feeling between the{-ci:tizms of the town of Bourbon, in Marshall county, in regard to crusailing, and both-sides have catried the matter too far. Saturday evening, in a fight from the'a_bovenamed cause, one old man was badly bruised., Sullh;l)f three young men wlhio. were swimming, and who were. drunk, got to quarreling among themselves, and then got into a fight with some others, and were badly pounded.

Mendenhall had a shovel thrown ﬁhrough his window which lodged on the bed,'no:uvly,sca]ping himself and wife. Some dray pins were thrown into the windows of a room where five children were sleeping, coming near them. If they had been struck it would have caused certain death. Several others, all belonging to the crusading party, were treated in the. same wdy. A reward of $lOO was offered for the detection of the perpetrators.

gs R S eR D By reference to our ;co?hunns; this week, it will be observed that the Gireat International Menagerie, Museum, Aquarian and Cireus will exhibit in Ligonier, on the above date, July 1. This, from all accounts, is the leading exhibition of the present-sgason.—< Trayeling exclusively-by itheir own conveyances, and’ not by rail, seventy cages, chariots, carriages and v.wi},g‘if)"‘ns,‘ drawn by nearly 400 hoises “AYE Tequired to transport the paraphernalia, and the army of meh, women . and children - composing - the. niammoth troupe. - One tickef admits to the come bined exhibitions; under a multitude: of mammoth tents. The exhibifion oft wild animals comprises of over 500 living specimens, spreading in variety from the mighty elephant down to the: eagle, merry and ‘mischievous ape; including many rare specimens not usually seen with fraveling Ménageries. The Museum and Aquarian are filled to repletion with {startling novelties, while the circus trounpe. for nimber and talent has never been e(qualed.— Fifty great performers take part in this department, appearing.in two sep‘arate rihgs, where a grand double ecircus performance takes place simnltaneously. We are informel that the bright partienlar star of the aremic exhibitions is M'lle De Granville, the lady with the jaws of Iron. So astotlishingds the lady’s achievenients that they almost, battie description, - they. st be seen to be helieved.: Some idea, however, of - her wondrous “feats may De imagined, when it i$ known’ that she- lifts, with her teeth alone; a hoghshead filled with water. Early on the morning of the exhibition a grand gratuitous street : display will take place, introducing ascene of noycities and a cortage of magnificent chariots, cages and vans surmounted by living and wild beasts.frée and untrammeled. This‘will be a pageant of glitter and. splender- two niles in dength, and should be _witnessed Dby .everybody. Keep your eye on the place and date, and remembér that the largest show' that has eveér visited the Hoosier State will exhibit in Ligonier, on: Wednesday, July 1. : "ok
