The roll of the National House of Representatives for the Forty-Ninth Congress shows 182 Democrats. MO Republicans, 1 Greeribaek Democrat and 1 Grccuback'.republieait. There i* a vacaueyiu the nineteenth Pennsylvania district. The attention of some of the Republican papers is respectfully called j to the following, which we find as a j clipping in that headlight of Repuh-| Uranism, the Evansville Journal: "It is time for the rancor of the last cam-' pa.igu to subside/’ Mr. Cj.evkl.4nu has had the ser-1 vices of the entire pressof (lie country j in making tip his cabinet, but lie will, j when the proper time comes, make I one to suit himself. However, we! would again suggest the advisability ! of giving ex-Scnator McDonald a • place in the cabinet. Tins Crawford-vilk- Review very truthfully says that Cleveland is a Democrat from head to foot, and has abiding faith in the power behind him. Every Clerk, and Postmaster, [ and Collector, and Marshal el id omne , ffenus’, who have used their places for partisan ends, will go headforemost.' This is civil service reform literally ; construed. Pack your duds and be ready. _ Gov.Cray gives the following very sensible1 ad vice to the legislature /‘‘The ; passage of the general and specific ap- . propriat ion bills should not be left to’ the unckptain'.ies attending tlie closing j days pf the session. To provide for! the public w.auts of the Slate is the ' paramount duty of the Legislature. j To wisely and economically spend the j means provided is one of the most important trusts confided to tlioscclothed j r Hhlhe management of State a Hairs."

The people are taxed too much, as well as governed too much. Governor Gray, in reference to tlie latter, voiced the sentiment of the people when he said,in his inaugural message: “There is not much danger of erring on the side of too little law. The world is governed too much, and that was undoubtedly the principle that governed the framers of our constitution in restricting the length of our legislative sessions." The Indianapolis Journal says that "in those localities where densest ignorance prevails the Democratic party always gets its largest majorities.'’ Perhaps this is the reason Indianapolis went Democratic at the last electionMay be it is ,the cause of our neighboring county of 'Knox giving an increased majority, at the county seat (Vincennes) of which there is located a University and public schools surpassed by none in the State. The Journal is well are of this, and so on —ad infinitum. Mb. O. 0. S-ni.Kix the correspondent who has just returned from \"ew Orleans, speaking of the Indiana exhibit In th6 Exposition there, says Indiana has every reason to l»e proud of her display. The Indiana visitors’ record shows that her citizens are proud to register, and the number recorded shows that there has been a very great number seeing the sights'. 8pint king ofTeat it res, he pronounces the exhibition of Indiana,stone to be an object ot\ much intei^st and the finest ever shown fit a similar exhibition, and, in fact, the whole Indiana section was among tin- finest.

'While addressing the Democratic editors of Indiana at Indianapolis, Mr. Hendricks said: “You placed questions correctly before the country, the most important and striking of which perhaps was the right of the people to select their own rulers without any fraudulent interference whatever. That right, 1 think,is well established, it is illustrated in the fact that the country accepts the result of the last election, although a very small majority in the stwteofNe.w \ ork decided tluq contest. That is a very sublime spectacle, acqniescnce of so many upon so great a result, and upon so narro w a majority. Hereafter it is to he.understood that the votes as east shall be counted. There was an indepeneenee about the dress 'tlm! was very striking. Everything was as well discussed in Indiana as anywhere in the country. Your work is not done; it goes on with the cause you have placed illsuccess. 1 received such grand and cneouragirg support that 1 cannot express the depth of my gratitude to you for it. In TSSTiu Indiana, the pesrwas mightcr than the sword.” , j . THE LEUlSbATllKE. 35«tilos-ial CorrcupondcBtr. Indian acoi.is, Jan. ID, 1885. ’ Over, one week has elapsed since the fifty-fourth session of the Indiana Legislature convened, and if the work accomplished in that time can be taken as an earnest of the remainder of the session, it will indeed be a busy one. iso far, ]1S bills have been introduced in the Senate and 1,05 in the House. As a rule, these bills are commendable ones, and a largo per cent, of them would add much to the general tone of our statutes should they pass both Houses and become laws. And it fs safe to say .that should there be any hills of an inferior oi unworthy character, they will never go further than committee rooms, where they will find theft' way into the pigeon-holes, as the Democratic majority is too large' and intelligent to admit of any but the correct measures getting through. . In the selection of the subordinate officers of the Legislature the Pocket seems to have made a general “scoop.” Viuiderburg county eoines up smiling with two clerkships, one in each branch: Posey has a clerkship in the House; Warrick has two positions in the Senate; Gibson wild Perry have committee clerkships each; Dubois has a clerk -hip, while Pike has the Heading Clerk in the Senate. Spencer county is the only Pocket county left out in the cold; and it is a. difficult matter to locate the blame for this fact. Nevertheless, our sympathies are extended to that locality. Senator McCullough, as predicted two year! ago,has been placed in th«T fropt rank ot the leaders of the Democracy in the Senate, a place he fills admirably and with credit to the Southern part of the State and himself. In our hlftnble opinion, the Senator from Gibson is too big a man for the State Senate, and from what I can glean wiltsstn all probability be transferred to the halls of the National Congress at no distant day. Senator Richardson is hard at Work, having been placed on several very important committees, among which is one on ices and Salaries. Ed. does not say much, but he is honest,industrious, and his labors in the interest of his constituents and the public in general count and are appreciated. Representative Hargrave’s name appears on a number of the House committees, and tiiat gentleman is filling the bill as a model l.egrtdator iu an excellent manner. - (

To-night the Democrat/will caucus for T’nitod Slates Senatm-. Of course, Dan Voorhess will he hinaniiuou4y chosen to succeed himstlf. On next Thursday night the Democrats will hold a caucus and nominate candidates for Prison Directors, Trustees, Librarians, ctc.^etc. ■ f A bill has been introduced injhe Senate to fix the salary of lteportcr of Supreme Court at $:i,nOO a year. Senutbr Youche lias introduced a bill which promises to tax liquor selling as a business $500 per year. Representative Hargrave has introdneed a bill to exempt state, county, city, school, college and church property fl-om taxation. A bill, looking to the repeal of the much-eomplaincd-of ditch law has been introduced in the I^ouse. Iii the Senate, a bill has been introdLrnm._ a

duced to prohibit man and wife from testifying ir divorce eases. A concurrent resolution favoring the pensioning of ali Union soldiers who were prisoners during the war has passed both branches. A House bill provides that hnmcp steads valued at $1,500 and personal property worth $1,000 shall be exempt from sale on execution. The Senate fee and salary bill protides that county officers shall keep an exact aectunt of all moneys received by them as fees; all such fees under $2,000 to be taken as pay for such officers, and 70 per cent, of all fees in excess of that sum to be covered into the treasury. A bill has been introduced in the Senate to repeal the law allowing, counties and townships to vote appropriaiions to railway companies. The legal age for a girl’s 'marriage is to be ehariged from 18 to 16 years, by a bill which has been introduced in the Senate. A bill to appropriate $275,000 for the completion of the new Insane Asylums has been introduced in the Senate. Representative Townsend, the colored member, has introduced a bill looking to the interest of his colored brethren in the matter of civil rights.

norus. Vice President Hendrick* and exdo v. Porter visited the Legislature one day lust week. The oh. war horse, den Manson, makes a {food presiding officer. |He tries to do the right thing by all, And as a rule, succeeds. Auditor Bethell and Geo. Ashby, of Pike, visited the Legislature (last week, lobbying for the removal of! the county scat from Petersburg to Winslow. Wo do not know with what success they met. The inauguration of Gov. Giray at English’s Opera House last Monday, and his reception at the. Bates. House in the evening, were largely attended. The county officers are lobbying hard with the fee and salary committees. J.

I ntler a resolution of the {louse, a i couple of thermometers are now suspended from the chandeliers.) This is an admirable arrangement!, as the members can now regulate their temperature to suit the character of the debate.—[Indianapolis Soutine'. The General Assembly [is urged j by Gov. Gray in his inaugural address “not to change laws that by long experience have Become familiar to the people, without good reason, as frequent alterations anii amendments tend to confuse the public mind." ' ]

Kepresentative Krueger, ot Lafayette, ha* introduced a joint resolution to change the Constitution | as it applies to the length of termsjof county offices. Under its provisions all offices will he held four years, and the incumbents shall not hold [ the same office two terms in succession. , Senator Ji.

The ability of< our Senator is recognized by the: prominent places given him, though lie will have a great deal of work. M r. Williams, of Knox, is the author of a hill introduced in the House : providing that the telephone compa- : nies in Indiana shall not charge more | than $3 per mouth for a single instrument, or per instrument where two are used in one place, and fixing the rates for use of telephone between various cities in the State at fifteen cents for the first five minutes, and not exceeding five cents for each live minuter thotgafter. . j ■

Ollt EXPOSITION LLTTE5! I From our Sjx-eia! Corxe>lK>n«lont. N*w Orleans. La., .Ian. 18. Nothing- lias yet occurred at the ’ grounds tOjinar the pleasure of any:; am! the weather being so admirable,! vegetation green and growing, evert • body has worn a smile asgraciotfs as a bonnio lassie's. On New Year the Mexican Cavalry Band, stationed at their barrages in the Exposition grounds, called] on Mgr. Cillow, the World's Fair Commissioner from their Republic, and presented him with a gold watch and chain, a token of appreciation. Champagne and toasts flowed freely and fulsome.

Professor Currier, who has been furuitdiing mnsie iu t!ie Hall of Main Initiding with his brass band since the Exposition opened, canceled his engagement with the Board of Management and left for Cincinnati .Thursday. The fact is tlie Management realized Currier’s Band waa too expensive a luxury for the services rendered, two hours a day, at a cost of nearly $10,000 a mouth. Besides, the Mexican Cavalry Band, which is firstclass, has tendered its services free of charge: and then the SOO.OOO organ just set-up in Music lia)l, (which is contributed by the firm of Fielder Brotiibrs, this city, is one of the iarg- ■ ost and finest instrument* in America, i It will be played by professionals j daily l and used in worship every Sunday. Then there are hundreds of j pianos on exhibition within thebuihM lug from which strains of melody will j (low almost continually. Consequent-1 ly, there will be no lack for music' during the six months following. The tinan ial straight in Which the Exposition Management finds itself! now the World’s Fair is at the acme j of success as an exhibit, while it. is to be regretted, could not well be helped. | Itneeds $3txi,000 to set it well on its; feet, which it would have acquire!* from gate money had the weather permitted the.attendance of visitors: But New Orleans with over $lli>.fKX),000 of taxable property will not let the Exposition sutler for lack of the paltry sum of a quarter or e ven a ha!f a million dollars. A .mass meeting- was held Thursday evening, .when the Finance Committee, through Director General Burke, stated the facts of .their embarrassment, and went to work to remedy the same. A committee was appointed to raise the n -eded funds, and as charity beginat home, it set out by subscribing $25,000. It will report to-night, and no one doubts the requisite amount will be forthcoming. However, the public need not be alarmed, as the wheels of the World's Great Fair will continue to revolve, and no power, save super human, can prevent it. Bo i let everybody come anil sen the world i —aye, eireumvent it, as it were—in j lei- than thirty days. A lump of silver bullion from Chi- j huaitita, Mexico, is shown in Main ! building. 11 weighs 5t>i0 pounds'.and', is valued at $114.000. Chief Gaul, of the Sioux Tribe of j Indians, accompanies! by his wife and j chihi. and Interpreter Young, of the] Standing Uock Agency, Dakota, an: I guests of Commissioner Fleming, ofj Fargo. Hi the Dakota Department, in j the Government building. Tkd Chief j is a booh companion of Sitting Bull,: tin* wild Indian who helped to massa-j ere General Custer on the Little Big Horn, Montana, in LS7b. To give your readers an idea or the I interest Mexico is taking in the. Expo- | siting, i! is Only necessary to state that their elegant round iron building now j being envied wiUujM nigh on lb $175.-.! 000, not to mention tlie expenses- in-j gm-n d in putting np their barracks,! abotpt an equal amount. Knowing j this, certainly every citizen of the • United States will he interested in i making the affair a grand success, by j individual presence, if nothing then'. Those who visit the Exposition | henceforth can not leave dissatisfied ; | for if hearing is believing, seeing will j be knowing; ami realizing they will! dare maintain that enough praise has not been given this gigantic enter- | prise. Then!is sufficient to see ini any one building to repay anybody for a visit down hero. Nothing-like keeping tip with the times. There is tio little interest being taken in the displays at the-World's Fair by the various railroads. With the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul in the lead, the Richmond & Danville, East Tent!., Ya. & Georgia, the Queen & Crescent. Hallo. & Ohio, the ChesapeakeA Ohio, the Northern Pacific, the Union Pacific and other fines, a great exhibit can be seen in the way of agricultural productions, mineral ores, bullion. Ac. Among the attractions in Government building, the elegant little postoflica deserves special mentipn and particular notice. t It is got up in excellent taste for looks and usage, and j is conducted by II. W. Hall, but un-j der the general surveillance of Postmaster Merchant, it being an adjunct to the New Orleans post office.

Language of Cows. A suburban correspondent sends the | following amusing' instance of inteli- j gettye in cows to a Loudon papwf; The other' morning a very sultry one', tn q cows came to our gate, evidently on the lookout for something, and j after being at first somewhat puzzled by their pleading'looks the thought struck me that they may he tit want of water. No sooner had this occurred to me than 1 had some water brought in a large vessel, which the i poor animals at once sucked up witn I the greatest eagerness. The pair then sauntemi emtentediy away to a field 1 near at hand. In about half an hour or-so we were! surprised and amused not# little by seeing our two friends inarching up to j the gate, accompanied by threw other j cows. The water trap was again call-1 rd into reqtisition, and the new comers were in like manner helped liberally. Then with gratified and repeated “boo-oo's” (a unanimous vote of thanks), our visitors slowly marched onto their pasturage. It was quite clear to us that the two first callers, gratified at their friendly reception, had strolled down to their sister gossips and dairy companions, and had informed them—how I can not say, can you ?—of their liberal entertainment, and then had taken the very pardonable liberty of inviting them up to our cottage. This morning we were again visited by the first couple, bringing a stranger with them ; and I have little doubt these morning calls will be regularly repealed and al’fonl my little household fresh pleasure and amusement in administering to their wants. The remarkable tiling, to my mind, was the fact of the two first cows informing the others, as most assuredly they dirt, of tire treatment they had received. 1 state the simple facts. I have in my time lived a deal in the country, but never remember anything like this remarkable instance (if the cow's intelligence, nor, indeed, have I ever read--to the best of my recollection— of anwhing line it.
