TnE generally expressed opinion of the press is that the terrible wreck of _the’steamship Schiller on Hie English ‘coast is due to the carelessness or rashness of her captain, who took all the changces of fog, darknéss and.a _treachérous coast, in order to make a speedy voyage, when he should have proceeded with caution orlaid by. 1 e —— - E— ; A pesraTcH from Houston, Texas, ~ informs us that “Mr. J effersgn Davis, in his address to the Texas -veterans ‘of the Mexican war, entreated them to' be as loyal now to tlie stars and :stripes as they have been zealous and brave in deféns,thehz firkt flag.”"— This is the moshgensible :\«Jv“:iyeftlmt “Jeff has given for Wany, nany vears. i e — > — N ’ GRATIFYING is the intelligence from Washington that. the -new Attorney Genqrai, Mr. Piertepont, is hard at - work ridding hig department of the dishonest creatures, who swrrounded the late incumbent of that office.

- JOURNALISTIC VENTURES. We Lave on more than one oceasion allnded to the preyailing fallacy of thoughtless men “rixshiix;j- into the newspaper busiriess in localities offering no reasonable assurance of adequate sitpport. ';"liough, thousands, yea millions of doliars are thus annually squandered, there appears 10 vis-, ible. abatement .of this popular delusion. - New papers spring up like mushrooms, all over the country, eking out a precarious existence for a brief period,and slowly but surely approaching an “Gnhouqred and ansung” grave, To show our readers how. extensively this ne\\j'spaper-'muuin really -is we need only refer to smtistic‘al' faets. Geo. P.

DEATH OF JESSE D. BRIGHT

3 '.l‘he'.(fn}:mt.y *Commissioners held a shiort session on Saturday last, at the instance of Mr. Harvey, the builder of ‘the n,éw jail; It seems that the large boulders which have been gathered up by Mr. Harvey cannot be used in the wall, if the specifications are tobe followed. Nothing, however, was done by the Board, as the architect was not present. It would seem 4s if Mr. Harvey will have to go bo,thé‘quari'ieg to procure stone to go on with the work. PCOBOMR, . 5 Mr. Commissioner Whan informs. me that there is-a better prospect for wheat in his neighborhood than last year, and that the young wheat is looking well. ‘On the other hand, Mr. Commissioner Kimmell says that. in his neighborhood the prospect. is slight enough. H. C. Stanley, Esq., reports poor prospects in his wownship. And from inquiries made for weeks past among farmers from .all parts of the county, it is safe to predict a very’ light ‘wheat harvest. It has, probably, occurred * to all our farmers and others who have lived in: Noble county for twenty years past, and” even much l'esé;'ﬁtne, that the climate with us has undergone a great change. - Nothing use to be so sure as the wheat crop. NWothing now is so uncertain as the. same. The whole face' of the county has been changed in twenty years.. Many thousands of acres of forests have been cut down, and the icy winds of winter have full sweep over the land. These j)llysic;ll changes have produced corresponding changes in the meteorology of the county. Our winters as a consequence have lengthened and become more severe.

THE GRASSHOPPER ! 2o is marehing to the sea, so. we would judge from some of our Western papers. Why should not this pest come upon us? Some scientific bugmen told us years ago thaf people east of the Mississippi river necd have no fears of the approach of the Colorado: beetle, or potato bug; that he could never cross that river; that. he was essentially a far western bug ‘and would . stay. there. So some of these same bugmen now.say of the -locust that has' devastated the country west of the Mississippi. Let us hope that they will ‘not come, but I am not sanguine, even after reading ~what those eminent Entomologists, Riley and Thomas, have lately written about the ~migratory grasshopper. The Governor of Miésuurj has appointed a day, next week. for fasting and prayer, that the Almighty. will be pleased - to save thie State from' the grasshopper. “Let their prayers take a sdbstmltial form,” says Professor Riley, the State Entemologist - of Missouri; “let them make a united effort and show: their faith by their work.” I have noticed that God helps those who are overrun with potato bugs who use most Paris Green. So with the graésheppers. Miracles have ceased to prevent cholera, shipwrecks, war and pestilence. The old philosopher found :that the gods always “helped those that helped themselves. And instead of the bugmen disputing in learned columns as to whether it is a’ true ‘grasshyopper or a locust, let them, if they can, devise some practi_cable mode to destroy the pestiferons thing. _ o ‘ % AT LAST we have reached the beginning of the end of the Tilton-Beech-er. case. The ‘evidence is -all in, and there has been a. vast amount of hard swearing and perjury somewhere, The verdict will have no weight with those who believe Mr. Beecher guilty—for I take it that the public long since made up its mind that the jury will not give Tilton a verdict—; on the other hand, should it happen that the jury give ‘Tilton a verdict for all he asks, it ~will not shake the faith of Beec'hér’s adberents in his "innocence. Those who believe the great preacher guilty reached that belief from his own letters, and not from anything that M. Tilton has charged. If Beecher is innocent, then, to use his own words, “never bigger ass fell into so déep a pit.” If guilty, then the world never saw so great a monster of all wickedness. Under the skillful handling of able lawyers, a consummate master of language and of all /intellectual resources, Beecher has put constructions ‘on his own letters that never once suggested themselves even to those of keen intellect and great powers of analygis; and the great mass of this class of the public have no motive 1n pulling dewn the Plymouth pastor, but would rejoice if they could harmonize the Tetters with the theory ‘of innacence. Cdllateral with the letters is his admission that he knew Mis. Tilton loved h’i‘aj‘} that he was in the habit of kissing her; that he never warned her of the dangerous ground on which she was walking with the Bl B T e

o R A R eLNA A RN 15 S Tt O Ol RN sy R gT R S g S causing the removal of Mr. Tilton from Bowen's employment, then he might have justfyelt great sorrow when he found that he had, thrown a blasting shadow en a happy home through ill-advised influence with Bowen. But Bowgn goes on the stand and swears emphatically that he had dismissed" Tilton. on his own motive, and not from any influence or advice of Beecher; that Beecher had nothing whatever to do with the remoyal of Tilton from the editorship of the Independent. . Either Beecher or Bowen has sworn falsely. If guilty, Beecher certainly had a strong motive to swear falsely. On the other hand, the tlieory of innocence is supported for the following, among many other reasons: Mr. Beecher is an old man; he is & famous man; he is the author of many books; he went to England during the war and made some stirring speeches; he has lived m Brooklyn a long time; he'is a gushing, companionable man; he is pastor of Plymouth Church. Sueh are some |of the reasons urged by Gen. Tracy, one of Beecher's ablest lawyers, why it cannot be that Beecher should be guilty. Again, the friends of Beecher urge that Tiltonis a liar, ‘a libertine, wg:ix’rs very long hair; is a pet. of Mrs. Woodhull, is an lufidel, a free-lover and a fool, and therefore Mr. Beecher is innocent. That Tilten forced his wife, while on a siek bed, to write at his. dictation the letter charging Beecher with crime. That Tilton hates Beecher. ' That he seeks to pull Beecher down to his -own infamous level. That Moulton is a liar, a conspirator, blagckmuiler and scoundrel generally. That enivy, hatred and revenge were the motives Umtvimpelled Tilton and Moulton to set on foot one ot the grandest schemes of infamy ‘the country ever saw. Such are Some, in fact the principal reasons urged why Beecher cannot be guilty. Andthus it stands: QOutside of Brooklyn itis not thought to be a thing among the impossibles that Mr. Beecher could give way to -the gush and mmykish fondling of women'ot the religious stripe of Mrs. Tilton.. In Brooklyn, and especially in Plymouth Chiurch, the Rev. Mr. Halliday, assistant pastor of Plymouth Church, expressed the sentiment of Beecher’s friends, when he said that “If an angel from heaven should come down and announce: that brother Beecher is ghilty, I would not believe

it.” What has Beecher to fear from such men as brother Halliday? . Let the verdiet be what it may, it will not give entire satisfaction. Yet it will be a relief to the public when the trial is over. ¢ sedan

THE SENSATION of the day is Gen. Sherman’s Memoirs, the second and final volume of which has just been issued. This interesting weork has already attracted wide attention and will inevitably revive discussion as to the military merit of many of the officers of the war. Gen..Sherman' holds a ready pelf and has always given courageous expression to his decided opinions. ' ITis fellow-soldiers, some of them, will suffer in thé public esteem by Jus eriticisms. Hooker, Jefferson Davis, Sécretai'y Stanton, Logan and others are somewhat roughly dissected, and Grant can no lz)-ligex' take credit for -planning the march to the sea or’ the movgment from Georgia“ to Virginia, which cut off Lee’s supplies and his retreat from Richmond. The suggestion of egotism in publishing these memoirs_in his own lifetime is counterbalanced: by the chivalric opportunity afforded toliving'men to disprove his statements and defend themselves. It is announced that young Stanton and several others will at an early day publish a refutation of some of Sherman’s statements. ik

According to the papers there is ‘a law in existence in Indiana allowing a bounty on fox and wolf scalps. The act was passed by the late Legislature. It fixes the bounty for wolf scalbs at $2O, and for those of foxes at &5&, provided the animals killed are at least six months -old.—Crawfordsville Journal. o %

Upon_this the Indianapolis Sentinel comments: “There seems to be some ‘misapprehension throughout the State as to the provisions of this law. The last Legislature simply authorized County Commissioners to provide for the payment of such bounty. Without this action on the part of Commissioners, money can not be collected on the presentation of such claims by legal process. The scalps must also be-faken in the county where the claim'is presented. The bill making these provisions was passed particularly in the interests of two or three counties in the northwestern portion of the State, “where these pests abound.” . ; : The semi-annual meeting of the State editorial association will take place at Indianapolis on the 10th and 11th of June.

Mrs. Lincoln Attempts Suicide. CHICAGO, May 20.—The 7imes has information that Mrs, Lincoln to-day attempted to commit suicide by poisoning. - After being removed from the court room where she was adjudged insane yesterday, she was put under the strictest surveillance, it being feared that she might do injury to herself. To-day she escaped from her room and hurried to the drug store: of Frank Squires under the Grand Pacific Hoteél. She ordered a compound of camphor and laudanum, ostensibly for newralgia. The clerk informed her that it would take about ten minutes to make it, whereupon she took a carriage and drove fo two other drug stores. She was followed by Mr. Squires, who in. each case prevented the druggist fromgiving her compound. She finally returned to the first place and procured a mixture -which she supposed was what she wanted, but which was harmless. She' drank this as she left the store, ang"as, it had no effect she ‘giiédtg; leay iégaf rgogswn _to ob-. tain a larger dose, but was prevented. 3{“ ¢ Hﬁgggf private hospital SRS s s e e

Our collection of grasshopper reports from the sections in the Northwest so terribly. desolated last year are generally of a more encouraging character than any which have been received heretofore. Nebraska is especially hopeful of escaping a renew-. al of the visitation; tin Missouri, between prayer and Paris green there is a feeling of encouragement; in Kansas the farmers have recovered from their alarm and feel reassured; and in Minnesota and lowa the prospects are nof considered as gloomy as heretofore. Grasshoppers have captured Kansas’ City., Their depredations are becom-’ ing very serious, lawns being stripped of grass, and garden truck heing destroyed. Nothing can be raised except in green-houses. . : ST. PAUIs MINN., May 21.—The Pioneer Press publishes despatches from a-number of localities in all parts of the State relative to the grasshoppers.

The Feeder consists of a feed-cup, in which there.is placed an adjustable revolving disk with teeth ‘'on the side near the edge. | These revolving disks -are all fastened-ori-the feeder-shaft, and moved laterly to vary the space between the disk and the side of the féed-cup, which varies the flow of seed as “ may be required. Fromithe fact that they are all fastened on the samdshaft, ‘when one is moved they are all:moved, consequently the change is uniform ~in all the feeders.” Youneed not-change a peck at-once, but can’ vary as little;as you please; even a pint, or less if you desire. = The quantity sown is Tezulated by a-very simple device at the end of the happer. -It is merely a - -sleeve with a spiral groove, fastened on the end of ’thb shaft, to which is at- © tachied the indieator arm or lever. There is a scale ol} the end of the hopper " with figures indicating the different quantities of grain to be sown- per acre, “and siniply ' moving the indicator to any desired point in, the scale, and tight- . ~ening the thumb autis all you-haye to do.to make thé change for any desired quantity. * The feeder is so plain and simple that we think no farmer can; “fail to appreciate its advantages. : It is just what farmers have been wanting,’ . and just what manafacturers have been trying to make; something that can - - be.adjusted instantly without change of gears. Ivery one wha sees it gives .- expressions like the following: “That’s it:” “You haye got it now;” “Just ~what we want;” “We are tired of ‘cariying so'many gears, and then have to ‘make change of a pedk at once;” “This just suits me and I must have-it;” «“It is so edsily regulated, I ecan vary just as litfle as I please;” “Anybody éan set this without making a mistake;” “I never saw anything feed as even - | as this, just-as regular as-a stream of water ;1 »See! it will sow anything— ¢ wheat, rye, barley, oats; flax, peas, beans, corn, timothy and clover seed, and " 4 then it does it so nicely, it certainly does beat themeall;” *There is some sat- - isfaetion in using such a Drill.”. “Sueh are’the expressions which farmers ~make-when they see the feed, and they.are not mistaken: it is all they sav aboubabe v ‘ S ; . i N .
