I LAMAR, instead of Hill, had been chosen to reply to Blaine, the amnesty debate would have taken a different turn. Let us haye no more of that up-Hill business. A

REALLY, we cannot persuade ourself into the belief that this great nation is unable'to properly celebrate its Centennial without offering Mr. Jefferson Davis @n unasked-for amnesty.

- ANOTHER sensation is imminent in government circles.” Secretary Bristow threatens to expose frauds in the Treasury Department to the extent of 3alf a wpillion of dollars or wore, all é;tif ‘“thict\, occurred prior to his- appoint-' ment. The nature of these frauds are still unknown to the public.

But for that greatest of all pol- ~ itigal follies which separated him fréin many of his old-time friends, Gov. Allen would have been his own SUCCeSSOT. ' - . Foar™ e s : L g & S e . ; ' CONSIDERING the fact that Morton ‘had a hand in the framing of the call - for the Republican National Convention, it must be confessed that for - genuine and unadulterated “brass” the authors of that document stand unrivaled and unequaled. There is more _ “cheek” displayed in that call than has ever before been held up before an astonished and bewildered people. _ Tuelxpiaxa Ebrtors,during their * stay in the city of Philadelphia, adopted a preamble and resolutions ‘setting - forth that,“having seen the building now being erected for the purpose of . holding therein the Centennial Exhi--bition, and recognizing the need of " some assistance from the General Government, we earnestly request our i - Senators and Representatives in Congress to support the bill now pending - before that body in behalf of the Cen- . tennial Exposition” | ! ..

- MoxNDAY last, Judge Holman moved in the Lower House of Congress to suspend the rules and adopt a resolution declaring it unwise and inexpedient to prescribe a specific @d arbitrary time. for resumption, instruct~ ing the Committee on Banking: and Currency to report a bill for the repeal of the Resumption Act at the -earliest practicable day. On the question of the suspension of the, rules the yeas were 112, the nays, 158. . A'nfumDber of hard money fien@ocrats‘votefl for Mr. Holman’s motion, not jecause they are opposed to ”resumptmn, but for the reason, that they deem the Sherman ' bill impracticable. . The House may be s€t'down as being im‘movably opposed to any scheme savoring of inflation.’ Sy

g o - ~The Cincinnati Enguirer says “it - transpired in the Amnesty debate last week that the chief reasen why the republidan party has granted amnes - iy in the past was to get the leading Soptherners up to Washington to twit them of having been rebels. It was inevitable that-a large proportion of Southern white members of “Congress would be ex-Confederates, Jfor the wwar swept everybody in the South into the army; it swallowed them all like a maelstrom. Now that t'l}ese gentlemeß are 'in the 'llouse, they are there as peers of' any .member, and 1t is in bad taste to taint them with the story of the past, as it s in bad taste. for the Southern: democratic members to take an attitude (f hauglitiness, arrogance, or defiance? - Correct. )

- REPUBLICAN PRINTS of the reckless _order have howled considerably over -the alleged removal of Union soldiers from subordinateé positions jn the ~ lower House of Congress. A stinging tanswer to this demagogical cry is fur‘rished By Col. Fitzhugh, door-keeper of ‘the House, who has made eightyfive appointments. Of these twentyfive havé been given to Union soldiers, . or, nearly one-third. The republican door-keeper of the last Congress, out of one hundred and fifty-three ap“pointments, gave . but twenty-four places to Unidn soldiers, orless than one sixth. It thus appears that the - Union soldier farés abouf twice as .well in the cruel hands of ' Democrats as in’ the merciful kindness of Republicans. It farther_appedrs that the ‘door-keeper of the last, Congress appointed fifteen) Ex-Confederate ‘ sol- . diers to_positions, while Colonel Fitz- - hugh has only appointed ten.

THE “URGENT DEMAND” for am- - - nesty is thus set forth by the Illinois Staats-Zeitung: “If bad blood is | - eaused through the action of Congress, . _they are responsible for it who wan- ~ tonly made the amnesty question a ~ subject for discussion. If the six or * seven hundred men who dre not yet _.~’amnestied were exiles in Cayenne or | New Caledonia; if they were wearing © away in chains, or ate the bitter bread .. of voluntary exile,—then the propog: sition for their pardon would have . «eason and justification.

* IMPORTANCE OF GOOD ROADS. One of the principal topies of conversation, at the present time, is the | horrible condition of the roads. Eraveling has seldom been much worse even in-the spring of the year. Itis impossible to drive faster than a walk, and consequently there is no more traveling by wheel than is absolutely necessary. The contrast between the roads this winter and last is most striking. The streets of Ligonier and the roads in this vicinity were probably never in a worse condition at this season of the year, though hundreds of dollars are annu--ally expended in working them. This shows that money and -labor have been misapplie’d—.though undoubtedly the very best was done that could have been under our present systém! Is it not ‘high time, then, that this mattér be taken into careful consideration. and some means devised that ‘will so direct labor as to secure the ‘ecomstruction of perfect roads—roads that will not readily get-out of repair, and, with but little expense, will be good for all time to come? We are glad to notice that there is a growing interest in. this 'St?fite on the.subject of good Toads, and that organizations ‘have been formed in many ‘ counties with a view to sectring unity of effort in this direction. At the aflpual méeting of the State_ Associationl for the Improveinent of Roads, held-at Indianapolis recently, a- vice president was chosen in each Cbngi‘essionhlf})is—" VLAUU §Y UL WUy 1 Wil v vo aodiSu Lir | promoting the objects of the associa‘tion. In this District Mr. R. M: Lockhart, of Waterloo, was elected, and Pr. A. H. Shaffer, of Huntington, in the Twelfth., 1t isscarcely necessary in this connection to urge the importance of good roads., There is no pub- | lie question now before the people of this State thatjs of more universal interest than the one under eonsideration. Itis of interest alike to the farmer, the m'e/rchaht, the mechanic. It is of just as much interest. to the town as to the country. . It is of far -more impol'taxxce,- the ' Logansport Star avers, than the greenback question; it is of greater interest than the question of tariff. The currency and the tariff are of a political nature and 'of great interest to the whole coulitr.y,A but good roads leading to every part of the county is a source of material wealth to every man in the county. The curr‘ency,)question may be managed in the interests of the. wealthy; { the tariff may be regulated to benefit ‘alone the capitalists, but good roads are, like the rtin of Heaven, for the. just and the unjust. They improve the value of the property; they increase thq price of grain by theé increased fa'?:ilityg of getting it to market; they. build up the business of towns by’giving to those in the country an easy inlet and ‘outlet; they help ’phe_’ rich and benefit the poor. There is not a man in Noble county who is ‘not personally interel;ted in the matter, whether he possesses a thousand acres or -gannot boast of being the owner of a single foot of land.. He | may not, himself, ever ride over a mile of the roads; but he is benefited to a certain extent; and not indirectly, but _directly. "The benefit is not for 4.4 caacan only. but it is for all.time, and as towns and country grow in wealth and population the benefit increases. :

What we most need is some better system of road work. There was an excellent law upon the statute book of Indiana in regard to the cohs"uu_ction and maintenance of roads, but the last Leégislature, in one of the un--accountable freaks of folly that characterized its session, repealed it. - Cities and counties vote thousands of dollars to aid in the construction of railroads, yet it is-claimed it cannot or ought not to do so for the purpose of securing the building of gravel roads through the country. If one-half the money that is annually. squandetéd, upon various minor enterprises in this county. was applied to the censtruction of bighways to enable the farmer to bring his grain and other products of his farm to our markets, it would add: vastly more to the improvement of towns within our county and would be much better for the public in. ‘general. It certainly is nothing but, blindness to our own interests that prevents.an organized effort to construct gravel rodds leading to every portion of the county. Let our merchants, mec¢hanics and farmers give this matter their careful attention, “and if possible unite in some organized effort that will result, in good and sybstantial roads. |

THE STATE CONV_ENTION.I “We' neglected last week to. state that the Democratic. State Central Committee met at Indianapolis on the 6th inst., and after.due consideration resolved to adjourn until the 2_3(1 of February, at which time the day for holding<the State convention is to be definitely agreed upon. -The committee unanimously adopted the following preamble and resolution: - | WHEREAS, The magnificent system of common schools, now the pride and boast of every citizen of Indiana, was devised by James Witecomb, an honored Democratic ex-Governor of the State, put in: operation by a Democratic ILegislature, -fostered and extended by the Democratic Constitutional Convention of 1850, therefore, .- Resolved, That the Democratic Central Committee of the State of Indiana beJieve that the public school system of the State should be preserved in--violable, and that no part of the revenue appropriated by legislative action or raised by taxation, should ‘be diverted from the purpose designed for it by the framers of our constitution, or devoted to any sect or denomination of any kind, =~ . ey

The Sentinel, in giving publicity to the above, says “it is proper to state in this connection, that Mr. Thomas B. Byrnes, himself] a Catholic, intro‘duced the resolution, which met with a hearty and unanimous approval. The people of Indiana will be perfectly willing to trust the interests of the common schools in the hands of the party whose wise legislation secured its splendid endowment, and. which has ever fostered it.” . The committee is deserving of much credit for its action in this matter. o -

REPUBLICAN NATIONAL CONVENTION, On the 18th ,inst,, the Republican National Committee met in Washington City, Hon. E. D. Morgan presid-. ing, and was engaged all day in selecting the time and place for the Presidential Convention of 1876. Delegates from Chicago, Cincinnati, Cleveland, Philadelphia, Bosten, Saratoga and other places ‘were heard, each urging the claims of his city. From the beginning -of the balloting Cincinnati led, Philadelphia second and Chicago third. After the sixth ballot at the evening session Philadelphia was practically dropped, and the contest was left to .Cincignati and Chieago, the former city finally being designated by 22 votes of 43, Chicago receiving 18 and Philadelphia 3. .| :

The following is the text of the call which was prepared by Messrs. Howe, Morton, Gorham, W. E. Cliandler and Fulton: : el

"~ The next Union Republican National Convention for the nomination of candidates for President and VieePresident of the United States will be held in the city of Cincinnati on Wed- - nesday, the fourteenth day of June, 1876, at noon, and will consist of del- | egates from each State equal to twice / the number of its Senators and Representatives in Congress, and of two delegates from each organized Territory and theiDistrict of Columbia. In calling the conventions for the election of delegates, the committees of the several «States are recommended to "invite all Republican electors and all other, voters; without regard to: past political differences or previous party: difiicul%ies. ‘ivhn are opopagad to roviva. Ing sectional Issues and desire to promote friendly feeling and permanent harmony ‘throughout the country by maintaining .and. enforcing all the constitutional rights of every citizen, in¢luding the full and free exercise of the right ofisuffrage without intimidation and witliout fraud; who are in favor of the continued .prosecution and punishment of all official dishonesty, ‘and of an econbmical administration of the Government by honest, faithful and capable officers: who are in favor of making such ;reforms in Government as experience may, from time to tlme, suggest; who are opposed to impairing the credit of the { nation by depreciating any of its obligations, and of sustaining in everyway the national faith and financial honor; who hold that the common school system is the nursery of American liberty and should be maintained absolutely free from sectarian control; and 'who believe-that.- for the promotion of these ends.the direction of the Government should continue to be eonfided to those who adhere to the principles of 1776, support théem as incorporated in the Constitution and laws and who are in favor of recognizing and strengthening the fundamental principles of -national unity in this Centennial anniveisary of the birth of the republie. Lo ' E. D. MOBRGAN,. - Chairman Republican Nationai Committee, Win. E. Chandler, Secretary. Washington - telegrams concur in the opinion that “the selection of Cincinnati is regarded by the friends of Western Republican Presidential candidates as the defeat of ex-Speaker Blaine’s candidacy. The supporvers of Bristow, Morton and Grant all combined against Blaine, and carried the day, not only against Beston, ‘which desired Blaine’s nomination, but against Philadelphia and Penn-. sylvania, whose candidate Blaine: also is.” 'We do not, as a general thing, attribute much importance to speculations of this character. - It is barely PUDD'A)E‘D that ‘0"‘"_“ ihfluences mav. with 'some delegates, have a certain bearing, but in the main the action of a national convention is but little influenced in that way.- -

THE AMNESTY DISCUSSION. ; The amnesty debate was still in;;f progress -at the closing of ‘our forms last week. .Ben Hill, of Georgia, replied to Mr. Blaine in a set speech of considerable power. e expressed strong sentiments of ‘loyalty to the government, and said that whatever the views of the southern people may | have been in the past, that portion of | the country was now, inseparably wed- ‘ .ded to the Union. Itspeople could not even be diiven'out of the Union-- the .home of their fathers. _This portion ! of Mr. Hill's speech is in every sense ' ‘commendable, and does him much henor. If he had only stopped at that, the Democracy of the country would owe him a debt of gratitude; but¥ool-’ ishly he launched out in a discussion of matters upon which ‘every consideration of prudence should have prompted him to remain silent. Gen. Banks made -a most admirable, conciliatory speech, and seems to have succeeded 'in impressing the House with the neces"'sity of returning to moderation.. = Mr. Blaine succeeded in preventing a two-thirds vote for theé amnesty bill reported by, Mr. Randall, and the probabilities ‘now are that the Senate will have to take the" matter in charge ‘and prepare a bill which is free of the objections urged against the measure proposed by Mr. Randall. 2

_ THE READERS of THE BANNER will bear us witness that the third term talk has not occupied much of our space. While we do not entertain the least doubt that Grant would be delighted with a third presidential term, ,we_felt assured, all along, that the decided expressions of leading Republicans' in opposition to that proposition would deter him from hazarding his chances. This opinion is confirmed by the Washington correspondent of the Cincinnati HEnquirer, who says: ¢ “It may be stated with much positiveness that Mr. Grant will not be a candidate before the Republican Conwvention for a renomination.’ Whatever may have been his hopesin the past, and whatever vrgaries the adulation of his sycophants may have:excited in his brain, he has finally concluded that he could not be elected even if nominated, and will authorize the formal withdrawal of his name from the convention if it shall be presented, and will not allow himself to be balloted for as a candidate.. The. Third Term is no longer a practical factor in our politics. It may indeed still be made the subject of able edi‘torials, and Legislatures may expend valuable ' intellectuality and precious patriotism in. drafting and passing resolutions -deprecatory of the policy of- subverting a precedent set or a custom inaugurated by the Father of His Country. But to the practical politician, ‘whose . business it is to count chances on his fingers as a small boy enumerates hig sugar-plums, the Third Termr is no longer an element of moment, or worth considering” ~ CotL. MORRISON, in speaking of the recent amnesty debate, hit the. nail e e i mackng: W heuoris ihey. st us get the best of them; whenever we speals, they get, the best of us,”

. STATE POLITICS. The _Waterlo'{Jz Préss exhibits decided anti-Mort‘fgfi proclivities. ~“The Lagrané;e Standard seems to favor Judge Frazier for Governor. The Rush county Republicans have’ declared for Morton for Pregidént’ and Sexton for Governor. : - Some “phunny phellow” has proposed the: “Rev.” Geo. C. Harding, of the Indianapolis Herald, for Governor. The Benton Democrat wants Hon. John R. Coffroth as Democratic candidate for Congress from the Lafayette District. . . The Bourbon Mirror is quite bitter in its denunciation of Reub. Williams’ appointment as Assistant Deputy Comptroller. o

The Indianapolig Journal has declared for Morton and Blaine. . The latter, however, demurs to playing second fiddle. : -

The proposed -postponement’of the 22d of February convention hias been dgopped by, the republican journals that recommended it. . =~ =~

There are many Democrats in this portion of the State who would like to vote for Hon. Robert Lowry as one of the Supreme Judges. T

Col.. N. P. Richmond, of Kokomo, is spoken of as a probable candidate for Lieutenant Governor before the Republican State Convention. ' -

" Notwithstanding his positive refusal to entertain the proposition, Judge Holman is still the favorite of the democratic press for Governor. The Indianapolis Sentinel accuses the Journal of neglecting Gen. Ben. Harrison. The Sentinel, it might be retorted, has been very negleetful of Speaker Kertr, i o Sy

Tom Underwood /fs suggested for chairman of the Republican State Central Committee. We don’t. believe Tom wonld provea mateh for ‘Austin Brown. P ;

The Knox County Republican, following the example of Harper's Week--Iy, declares it will not support Grant for:a third term if nominated. That’s the way to squeleh it. - :

~ Some of the republican papers are very much dissatisfied with Gen. Packard’s appointment as Internal Revenue Agent, because that gentlemah-is known as a salary grabbe‘_r. Congressman Hunter is the latest addition to the list of probable candidates for Governor, on the republican side. Hunter would hardly be considered a very formidable candidate.

Samuel J.- Wright, of Corydon, is ;qqlllillg up as a republican candidate for Auditor of State. The fact that he was elected Auditor of democratic Harrison county is cited as an evidence of his popularity at:home. L The suggestion of Judge Frazer's name as a suitable candidate for Governor - meets with considerable;favor in certain republican circles. It is safe to predict, howewer, that the Judge will not be tendered thg nomination. : o ST T

Tom C. Phillips, of the Kokomo 7bune, is named as a suitable pe'f'son to receive the republican nomination for Secretary. of State. " Tom is a firstvtass nhewspaper man - and has long since earned- some substantial favor at the hands of his party. .. ’

Austin . Brown, Clerk of Marion county, and one of the ’mpst adroit political workers in the State, is likely to be made chairman of the Democratic State Central Committee. Gen. John Love is also mentioned in the same connection. Either will answer.

| Nicholas Ensley, the present Treasurer of DeKalb county; is very favorably named in connection with the republican candidacy for. State Treasurer. Mr. Ensley ran largely ahead of his ticket in 1874, receiving about 600 majority over his democratic competitor: - - 1 e The Kokomo Dermocrat would like to _['yield its support next fall, to the following ticket: “For President, Thomas A. Hendricks;-for Governor, William S. Holman.” A National and State ticket headed by these illustrious genfilémen would presage vietory, the Democrat thinks.

The action of the Democratic State Central Committee, in deferring the issue of a call for the State convention, meets with general dpproval in all portions of the State. A call for the holding of the convention some time in June or July would suif this corner of the State very well.

' Tae DEMOCRATS of the Kentucky Legislature have had a high old time over the nomination of a candidate for U. S. Senator, to suceeed Mr. Stevenson. The leading candidates were Hon. 3ame§ B. Beek, for many years the able representative in Congress from the Lexington District, and Gen. “Cerro Gordo” (John S.) Williams, a noted Granger and inveterate office seeker. - The caucuses have been exceedingly boisterous, and developed a good deal of bad blood. On Monday night, Mr. Beck was finally declared nominated, having received a majority of the entire democratic vote. The Williams men bolted, but Beck will be elected nevertheless. :

s An Indian Massacre. The St. Louis Republican’s Kansas City special has information from Kerwin, Kan,, Jan. 11, to-the effect that some fifty Otoe :Indians have been massacred by a band of ‘Sioux. The Otoes passed Bloomington about ten days ago on their way to the buf falo hunting ground. On Wednesday a week, si?of.'them returned and stated that their party were surprised at night by Sioux, and all excepting themselves were killed and scalped. Great excitement is‘.' said to prevail ‘among the settlers in the neighbor--hood of Bloomington, and all are rea'dy to leave should the Indians make 'a demonstration. 'This statement is very fishy, but is given for what it is worth. pea e S

Indiana Congressmen on the: CurL i remes. . L From the Washington Cor. New York World. Of the Indiana delegation we may set down M. C. Kerr, the Speaker, as sound as gold and true ag steel on the. currency issue. A. H. Hamilton, Judge Holman’s nephew,'isi fully as earnest an advoeate,of hard money as the Speaker.. W.S. Haywmond is not quite so thorough-going a champion of a specie basis as Hamilton, but he is mevertheless a sound hard money man. He is against the scheme of substituting greenbacks for bank notes and favors gradual resumption, for the attainment of which he has ‘matured a plan of his own. Franklin- Landers,” from the Indianapolis district, is an extreme soft money man, an inflationist, and, we regret to add, a demagogue not without honér in his own country.. W. 8. Holman favors repealing the resumption act, advocates substituting greenbacks for national bank notes, and believes the legal tender act constitutional. He is ‘not in favor of inflation, -although he ‘might consent toi moderate inflation as a mere matter of policy. He is a man of great experience and of dis-

tinguished reputation. < : Jeptha D, New, cousin of the Treasurer, is at bottom a hard money man, .but under the pressure of the finan"cial troubles of the country and tbe clamors of his own section would probably accept Holman’s policy. He would go almost any length, however, to secuie harmony in themparty on: the financial ‘question. ' He is a good man, over anxious, if that be possible; not to go wrong. J. D. Williams is noted for the striking resemblance swhich he bears to Abraham Lineoln, ‘He is honest! and straightforward, though perhaps apt to bend to the influence of popular epinion. Ile is reticent on the money qaestion, but is jeager tor the union of the party. “Under existing. circumstances he would probably faxor, or at least ac- . cept, the substitution of greenbacks for bank notes.. 8.55. Fuller is. more reticent than any of his confreres, but would go for the welfare of the par ty. He may be described as tinctur-* ‘ed with inflation heresies.” To this list ‘of ,I:ndiz]nzt Deémocrats Senator McDonald may be added, whe .is a man strongly attached. to the old fif nancial faith of the party and as loyal’ to his convictions as he is to his: friénds. In tecapitulation it-may be said that Landers is the only man of. the délegation who either believes or affects to believe {that the government stamp constitutes the value of money. . P o

AL e e R BN ] :K'hie Star Bills ot “’Mefl,oo‘ne@roy- . i edd by Fire. B At about 3 o’clock of Monday morning, January 10, the people of Water: loo—as the Press informs us—were awakened by the cry-of “Fire,” and the sharp ringing of the fire alarm bell. -~ Mr. Barns, whose family firgt discovered the fire, awakened the people in his ‘meighborhobd, but. before a dozen people were on the streets, the entire town was illuminated with the blaze from the upper story and roof of the Star Mills. Of ¢ourse, when the engine and people arrived upon the ground, the main building and contents were past-savibg. - Water, however, was thrown upon the engine room from the creek, and we understand the engine, 1)0118'1,;‘, ete, were saved in fair condition., The handsome Star Mills, however, the most expensive flouring mills.in this corner of the State, are in ruins, nothing but the blackened walls remaining. « | The mill was owned by C. A: O. MeClellan and Thomas Kelley. The first named. had ne¢ insurance upon his half, but .the latter held policies amounting in all to $5,500. The mill was worth about $15,000, which will be the loss, deducting ivhatever may be realized from the machinery saved. In addition to the loss on H}% g{}l}‘)t)u(}‘ ¥} & YT . DL Foorenhadid ) T g’a’l%k§’§ffil of wheat, Mr.Rhinesmith a quantity of corn and feed, and no doubt others lost small amounts of grain in store. ~ Theé loss is a severe one, both to Messrs. MeClellan and Kelley, and the town, but we are glad to notiee the principal sufferers ‘ghke the matter quite philosopl ically: It is #ubtful whethes the Owhers themstlves have determined what cyurse they will pursue, in the future, .&s to the property. g : : 4 As to the origin of the fire, there seems to be much unanimity in the opionion that it was the work of an incendiary. It originated in the upper story, far removed from tlie furnace, stove pipe, machinery or anything else ;that could have possibly created a conflagration. = :

The Centennial Appropriation 2iil (From tbe Vincennes Sun.) -

The press is very much divided on the Centennial Appropridtion Bill now pending before Congress. ' It may be fairly admitted that there are good objections to Congress making any appropriation for this object, mainly because ‘the money will go into the ‘pockets of the stockholders. and speculators, or be gobbled up- by the Philadelphia corruptionists. But as our Government has given an authoritative and unequivoeal .recognition of the Centennial exhibition there is cer: tainly an obligation imposed-on Congress for giving some kind of material aid that will insure the complete success. of the enterprise. We have invited the nations of the earth to be present and witness the grand :and imposing ceremonijes. that are to be held in Philadelpliia on the 4th day of July, 1876, and ito: inspect the evidences of progress our nation has made in science, literatures, arts, agriculture, inventions, education and wealth. _To do all this in.a way that will reflect eredit upon our country and people will necessarily require money, and as the people have so far failed to come forward and buy a sufficient amount of stock to; complete the buildings it seems that Congress will be compelled to afford assist;mmé in some way.. In granting aid,-how-ever, there should be a stringent clause which will prevent private individuals and corporations from reaping the benefit of the Government subsidy; stockholders should be required to donate their stock, or Congress reserve an interest in the profits, or which would be still betten, provide that admission to: the centennial grounds and buildings should be entirely free.
