N ; ? L 8 A Ny | v The Antional Banmer . A WHITE HOUSE SCANDAL. . The bankruptey court in New,York - - is at present occupied with the interesting sequel to the brief but briiliant financial hjstory of the banking house - of Henry Clews & Co. Durmg the | . presidential contest of 1872. Henry . Clews was an active supporter of the . re-election of General Grant. With ! Jay Cooke he appeagéd at the head of - a heavy subseription list in aid of thie * republican campaign in Pennsylvania. He was af the same time one of the prominent promoters of an address to - . the people of the country from leading “ Wall street bankers and brokers, warn-. | ing them of the fatal financial conse-’ quences that would result fromthe, ~election of Horace Greeley. As alead- .~ ing operator in the fra_mdu}lent'hdnds which Bullocl;,in Georgia and theearpet bag ring| in South Carolina had saddled on the people of those States ' and as a daring speculator in all sorts . of fancy shares there was no man | whose flnancial and political opinions * - carried greater weight than those of _ Henry Clews. His weekly circuldrs were consulted as oracles by all who ~dabbled in stocks.- He and his associates gave no reason for their belief in '_ -the fatal consequences of the election _ of Greeley, for no reasons were need- - -ed._ The simple word of a solid flnan--7 eier who controlled millions was considered sufficient. But to confound ‘this financial prophet one of the first ~_ houses to collapse in the panic which succeeded the election of Grant was | that of Henry Clews & Co. , | ¢~ In October, 1872, just about the time ~when Henry Clews was ;making such ” extraordinary exertions’ for the élec- " tion of Grarit, and - lending the ‘repnﬁ- _ lican politicians the weight of his great financial reputation, his banking ~ house was made:the fiscal agency of the United States government in London. The house of the Bariigs, says the Harrisburgh (Pa.) Patriot, who liad conducted this agency with most scrupulous honesty and care:for half a century, was removed. - What'makes - sthe agency peculiarly desirable is that . it annually " disburses about fifteen £ millidns'of dollars for the foreign ser- - . viee of the government. When Clews, Habicht & Co., of London, failed, the loss of the government was two hundred thousand dollars. T

' When‘this agency was conferred on Henry Clews & -Co., it was generally "regarded as the reward of important ‘political services, but it now appears that other cbnsiderations besides gratftude wereinvolved in the transaction. Mr. Benjamin H. Cheever, a notorious ‘Washington lobbyist, has presented to the register in bankruptey in New York, against the assignee of the broken housea claim of - $150,000 as his share of the profits of the London .agency.” The partners were Clews, Cheever,Habicht,and a mysterious per‘sonage named Van Buren. Cheever’s duty was to talk up the financial soundness of the firm of Henry Clews & Co. to cabinet minis'terfi; and members of congress, and to"slander the -eredit of any who might be suspected ~of rivalry. . According to his own account he lobbied the case with great Industry, holding conversations’ with - all therepublican politicians in Washington who might have influence in promoting the job. But the most important person with whom he talked was Judge Louis Dent, a brother-in-law of the President and an inhabitant of the White House. ' This seems to haye settled the business, for which Dent was to receive one-eighth of the . profits. Before there was an opportunity to share many dividends in this rich government ‘bonanza the crash of 1873 came and the firm of Clews; ‘Cheever, Dent, Habicht, Van Buren & Co., were among the first’ to ‘collapse, leaving the treagury at Washington minus about two.hundred thou- . sand dollars. T :

This affair is in perfect consistency with’ what has already reached the ;public ' concerning the connection of ‘the White House with other scandal: ous transactions in Washington since its occupation by Grant. It is in keeping with the Black Friday scandal and helps to explain the relations of Grant ‘with Shepherd and Delano. The trans- | action reveals the thorough rotienness ‘ which pervades official life under this administration. . An important fiseal agency of the government is made an” ‘object of barter and sale, in which 'a banking house of by no means wellestablished credit secures the profitable position by giving a bfother-in-law ,of the President one-eighth of the earnings. . This -Cheever-Dent eperation will, no ddubt, undergo a searching investigation by Congress, when a scandal of more than ordinary magnitude, even for Washington, will be rev&iled. { | L s

THE ‘interest in the Williams coun- , Yy {His.) murders has been enhancgd " by the examinations which are now going on. Two of thie scoundrels implicated in the murder have turned State’s evidence and have told the sto- . ry of the erime with particular reference to the smallest details. They * talk as though the killing of a man l - was a very small matter. The scraps “of conversation held between the con-' “fidants ‘as quoted Dby the two men is' __peculiar. One of them, Sam Musick, says he saw John Bulliner pay to ; . Crain 815, saying, as he did 80, “There ~“is 815 for Killing old George and T will pay you the rest when I sell my } ‘wheat.” One is apt to conclude from | -the testimony that the whole party ~ look upon murder as a very common-. * . place matter indeed. ' - HARPER’S WEEKLY thinks 'the new 1 - deal .in party organization which the | ~ finaneial issye will be apt to ne_(:ess;-" ~_ tate, will result in an alliance between -the republican party and the . hard %"«W democrats against the ‘soft ~ money democrats, and that the former Wil be victorious. Very rose colored but mot very likely, the Fort Wayne Bentinel thinks. The hard money ~ democrats expect to win thesoft money democrats over before the cam- “ republican s T Q@Erhw

Benjamin F. Seeley, one of the oldest citizens of Elkhart, died on Thursday evening of last week at the residence of "his son, Ed. Seeley, in the eighty-second year of his age. According to the Review, Mr. Seeley became a resident of that city in 1836, and ‘was recognized as one of its oldest and most worthy- citizens. He was a member of the small band who organized the M. E. Church in that place and continued his relations with the society until the time of his demise. For some years he has been dependent upon his friends through blindness and ill-health, which fact has endeared h‘ir,n"all the more closely to those who are left to mourn. . -

. From Fort Wayne comes the report of another murder, committed in that (Allen) county on - Monday of last week. Two farmers, named Gabriel Fair and Robert Dolin, residing within a short distance of leach other in Eel River.township, between whom there had been bad feelings for some time, met on the farm of the former and commenced quarreling. In the height of the wrangle, Fair picked up a stake and struck Dolin a fearful blow on the_ head from the effects of which he died on the next morning, Fair gave himself up to the authorities. 'The deceased was about forty years of age and was very respeét»ably connected in Ft. Wayne and. the county. He leaves a wife and four cliildren. Fair has & wife, but no children.

- The Brenven correspondent of the Plymouth Dembcrat writes as follows on a subjeet that is .likely .to- attract considerable attention : “Oppositioﬁ to our free school system is assuming alarming rroportions, not only in the larger cities, but right here in our 'midst. ~ Denominational schools are now seriously interfering with our free schools at this place. - Our township trustee informs us that there are families in' this' township. who have not sent their-children to any of the free schools during his term of office: The minister of one of the most ‘popular churches at this place has the effrontery to-say that out free school system is an intolerable - nuisance. During the convention this divine (?) intimated that our free school system, which we have sogong cherished and regarded as the basis of our free government, should be abolished, and narrow denominational schools should supersede -them. Observation has proven that those schools.in which the doctrines of a particular church are exclusively taught, are calculated to trammel the minds of our youth.”

‘On Tuesday afternoon of last week a number of our citizens were seen to take the western-bound train for Elkhart, and it was evident that something unusual was in the wind. But the following item, which appeared in*the next day’s Review, fully explained their mission: “William Bar: ney is the victim of surprises. Only night before last-he was astonished at the visit of a thief, and last night a still greater surprise overtook him and his family. A car load of people arrived from Ligonier on" the afternoon train,.and loitered about town the remainder of the time until evening. When least expected, on they came, completely filling Mr. Barney’s house in honor of the itenth anniversary of their marriage. The Ligoniers had. been joined 'hy about 150 Elkhart people, whom they had quietly informed what: was going on, and ‘the large party took enﬁfr’ej possession of Mr. Barney’s home., The guests entertained themselves and Mr. Barney’s people in aroyal s{yle, and piled the rooms full of tin-ware, embracing everything from a tin whistle to a dish ,pan. ‘A more happy company could nowhere be found, and the gathering did not break up until an early hour this morning. Certainly Mr. Barney’s. people will not object to such sirprises, neither will those who o it Py iy T et g

e ; Death in Our Feod. °~ A few 'years since, in a smali German town, near Nuremburg. a strange and terrible disease made its appearance among the people. The symptoms were violent museciilar contractions . accompanied . by = the most] excrueiating pagn_s, followed in most cases by stomach and bowsel affections such -as dysentery, diarrhecea, and gastro enterttis, orinflammation of the bowels, resulting in death in the majority of instances. The disease baffled the best medical skill, both as defining the cause or suggesting a remedy, and the origin of the fatal complaint only was revealed by the microscopist’s'aid. The microscope revealed in the pork and bacon which were | very common articles of food among the inhabitants of this town and other places in Germany, a microscopic ‘worm, a parasite that lived in the ‘flesh of the animal to which the name of Trichine was .given from its hairlike form. . In eating the flesh of the hog the worm was. transferred to the human stomach, and thence throughout the whole system, giving rise to T'richinosis, the disease 'above mentioned. i : LS | It~ was not long before the same parasite was discovered in the hogs of this country and our readers are mostly all familiar with the result of the'inspection of the Illinois pork and bacon of the markets a few years since, and the antipathy to this kind of meat occasioned thereby. But in course of time the subject of 7richine was almost forgotten, except occasionally there would come the report of a person having suffered the horrors of Trichinosts, But we see from the late - “Transactions of the Indiana Medical Society,” that the hogs of the Staté, particularly the Southern part, are more than commonly affected by this parasite, that not less than ten per cent. of the hogs are thus diseased; and it is to the fact of eating the flesh | of hogs thus affected that the society attributes the unusual prevalence of dysentery, diarrheea, and gastro enter‘itis during the past season in many localities. g

~ Theinfluence of 77ichine in deterinining the health of a community may be estimated when nearly-every family uses the flesh of the hog in some form or other, and many a sick person, when it is remémbered that one animal out of ten is diseased, would find the cause of his complaint in that microscopic parasite that passed with the pork chop, or steak, or sausage that he so much enjoyed when well, into his stomach, and there laid the foundations of that terrible disease, dysentery, or its analogies, or passed through the body to the muscles and gave rise to an equally painful and fa‘tal complaint. The great point of interest is, i 3 there a remedy or preventive?. can the T'richinosis be cured if once it has affected a person? or, can the. T'richine be killed before entering the human-organism? As to the first, it comes in the province of the physician’s skill, and as to the second, competent authority states that heat is fatal to the parasite, or.:its eggs; that they are killed by thorough boiling or heating and pork or bacon thus treated becomes harmless for evil.— -As the flesh of the hog shows no visible sign of the parasite to the naked eye, it renders it more necessary than simply a matter of taste, to admit no meat to the table unless thoroughly boiled or roasted,as in-this lies the only safety. ' . el O L—— —— symptomq of Catarrh. Dull, heavy headache, obstruction of the nasal passages, discharges falling from the head into the throat, sometimes profuse, watery and acrid, at others, thick, tenacious, mucous, purulent, bloody and putrid; the éyes are weak, watery, and inflamed ; there is ringing in the ears, deafness, hacking or coughing to clear the, throat, expectoration of offensive matter, together with scabs from- ulcers; the voice is changed and has a nasal twang, the breath is offensive, smell and taste are impaired; there is a sensation of dizziness, hacking cough, mental depression and genenal debility. Ouly.a few of the above-named symptoms are, however, likely to be present in any one case. There is no disease more common than Catarrh, and none less understood by physicians. : e

DR. SAGE’'S CATARRI REMEDY is, beyond all comparison, the best preparation for Catarrh ever discovered. Under the influerce of its mild, soothing ‘and healing properties, the disease:-soon ‘yields. The Golden Med-: ical Discovery should be taken to correct the blood, which is always at fanlt, and to act specifically upon the diseased glands and lining membrane of the nose. The Catarrh Remedy should be .applied warm with Dr. Pierce’s Nasal Douche—the only -instrument by which fluids can be perfectly injected to all the passages and chambers of the nose from which discharges proceed. ) " These medicines are sold by Druggists. ~ ) e T @ A—— The Business Prospect. . Very few merchants in active and healthy 'trade were found who dissented from the encouraging views of* trade prospects which the leading men, in various branches expressed to 7'ribune reporters yesterday. The canvass’ of opinions upon the subject was a thorough one, and the general verdict was that trade had reached its lowest ebb during midsummer, and was now decidedly improving, with a promise of exceeding that of last year in every respect. The great carrying companies also report'a decided increase in the- tonnage of westward bound freights. Not only is the bulk of traffic larger than formerly, but the basis of ' trade is better and more ‘healthy.. Orders are not as large, but more frequent than-in past years; notes are given (whge' credit is asked) on shorter time th&n formerly, and renewals are not requested so fre‘quently. The increase in the volume of business has ‘been particularly marked in the last month or two, and the indications are fair for a continued development in the right direction.— . Y. Tribune. el @ e An Important Fact.. . The voluntary testimony of thousands establishes beyond all doubt a fact. of vital importance to thesick and debilitated, viz: that Hostetter’s Stomach Bitters is an absolute specific for remittent and intermittent fever, dyspepsia, sleeplgssness, chronic diarrheea, and all diseases oé the stomach, liver and bowels. The unmeditated stimulants usually prescribed in these ‘cases only aggravate the symptoms, instead of removing them. The Bitters, on the confrary, act as a corrective and invigorant, without producing the unpleasant -and dangerous consequences of the, old school practice. The action is mild and soothing to the irritated stomach and bowels, promoting digestion and preventing flatulence, nausea, headache and all intestinal irregularities. A wineglassful before meals greatly assists digestion. The convalescent may use them with great benefit, as 4 means of restoring strength and cheerfulness. ‘ : : . - 24-w4.
