——.. . 1 = Notice to Patrons of the Democrat. I have been appointed to a clerkship in the State Legislature, and during its session Mr. T. A. Bynum will have exclusive control of the publication of the Democrat, lie is autherixed by me to conttact for advertising, job work, etc., and to receive and t receipt for all monies due the office. W. R Kmoht. Jan. 8,1885. The disappointed office-seeker's lot is not a happy one. The address of Grover. Cleveland is No. 48 Williams street, 4(j^nny. X. Y. Here is a pointer. I'nhek a Democratic administration the “infant industries" will be’cared for, but the monopolies must go. The Republican papers have attempted to show that St. John sold out to the Democrats in the late campaign, but the only thing shown so far is that the Republicans tried to buy him and failed. The messengers who carried the electoral votes to ’Washington went over 33,874 miles and received $8,468,fiO. The Oregon messenger received the largest sum—$775.50—and the Maryland man the smallest—$10.50. A western paper gives a line showing for the farmer in thi6 wise: “When dae allowance is made for the different amounts of capital invested, we venture to assert that the avorage farmer makes moro money than the tiverage banker.” Is the joint convention of the Legislature, the vote re-electin}t Daniel IV. -Yoorhees to the United State ^senate gave him forty-three majority, which is unprecedented ip the history of the State. It is a just endorsement of a great man. 1 Ttetf Seymour Democrat truthfully remarks: “There may he a difference of opinion at Washington as to the propriety of calling lion. Josepn E. McDonald to the cabinet, but there is i* none fcere. lie is, beyond, question, the tu&niusous choice of the people of Indiana for a cabinet place." CosiiuKNCE in people auda feeling of safety in ail branches of industry Tarings good times. Failures destroy this rwiiidence, and have a depressing effect everywhere. The prevalence of a better feeling in the markets and the trashes giveseverythinglife, witich is follows! by better times. All indicatums jtoint us toward this, and it can not conic too quickly to relieve a great many.

Warren W. Baii.f.v, of the Vincennes News, is not a candidate for ]M>at-offieial houors, as some of his enemies would make believe. However, there is one “office” he is a candidate for, but we may not be permitted to tell. During all heated campaigns and amidst winter, under * the glittering rays of gas jets and out into the soft moonlight, Warren has carried his pericardium; but its contents, for aught we know, are still intact. One of the great and underlying principles of Democracy has been *ai» opposition to all monopolies, and will continue to be so. A Democratic House lias nearly broken the backbone of the land monopolists—the railroads—in which good work Indiana Congressmen have been, and are •till prominent. Congressman Thos. It. Cobb, of the Second District, as Chairman of the Committee on Public Lands, is entitled to the praises of the entire country for his work in this respect. The “Great Objector” Holman also comes in for a share of the praise. These men represent the Democratic principle, and the people can well say to each : “Well done, thou g*tod and faithful servant.” “An old farmhouse, with pastures wide, Sweet with flowers on every side; A restless lad who looks from out The porch, with woodbiue' twined about, Wishes a thought from iu his heart; O, if I only could depart Prom this dull plaeeAo world to soc. Ah me! how happy I would be!” The resth** lad goes from the farm house, with a mother’s kiss and a father’s advice, “make a man ot yourself.” The hoy leaves the place of his listrth, the wide fields, the rippling brook* iu which his shadows had been mirrored as he played on the banks. Me'laems full of joy to relinquish his hold upon the plow, and is no longer compelled* to husk corn amidst winter. He goes out **in the world; travels “from Maine's pine hills and crags of snow to where rnagitolfan breezes blow," from Duluth, (Minn.), “the zenith city of the unhaltcd seas” to the Golden Gates, and spends years in foreign climes. Alas! A change comes over the spirit of his dream, and In the end— “Amid the city’s ceaseless din, A man who round the world has been, Who, >mht the tumult and the throug, lis thinking, wishing, aHduy long; O, could I only tread once more ThFfield-path to the farmhouse door, Tl»e old green meadows could 1 see, Ah me! bow hippy would I bp;’»

London was shaken by dynamite last Saturday. The perpetrators of the deed iire not known. It is ouly thirty-four days till the inauguration of the first Democratic President iin twenty-eight years. llo\. John J. Kleiner has the thanks of the Democrat for a line assortment of field., Hon or and garden seeds. _ Fortune knocks once at every man’s door, is an old saying. The Philadelphia Times says Fortune sits on Cleveland’s front steps half of the time. We notice an article in the St. Louis Globc-Democral: headed “Four Campaign Liars Indicted.” This is certainly a late time to disturb the quietude of a large family. Give them a rest.

Tue internal revenue, a tax upon luxuries, pars the Louisville CourierJournal, helps to lighten the load of taxation by upwards of a hundred ^millions. It is indispensable as long as the needs of the Govern ment arc so great as they are now. It is a little Joo early to be making Presidential slates for 1888, but since the election of ifr. Evarts to the United States Senate he is mentioned as the man to redeem the wasted fortunes of the “grand old party” four years hence. Shades of lhitherford Burchard Ilayes! Senator Voorheks’ bill amending 1 tension laws, provides that all pensions which have been or may be granted in consequence of military serviec rendered since March 4, 1861, shall commence from date of death or disability because of which ponsiou is asked, and in consideration of pension eases the soldier or sailor shall be presumed to Lave been sound physically at tlie time of enlistment, Rev. J. L. Pitnek, formerly of Evansville, but now located at Minneapolis, Minn., lias the following incident in a splendid letter to the Evansville Journal: “Another gentleman. in showing us around, was prompted by a very innocent remark of mine to perpetrate the following: ‘Ah, sir, the way wc build here is simply wonderful. You remember, sir, that the scientists of less favored climes were at a loss to accouut for the very red sunsets of the last few years. Those sunsets were no mystery to ns. They were caused by Minneapolis brick dust iloating iu the air.' ” The narrator can take the cake. Retrenchment, reform and a resistance to centralization will be the work of the Democratic administration. ^Though the party lias faults like an individual, auil where is there oTfe who has not, the people hare always looked to the Democtatic party to accomplish these thing;—reform, retrenchment and prevent centralization. Though often defeated, the party came up smiliug when the fight was on, and at last triumphed over the Republican party. On the eve of a Democratic inauguration, it is pleasant to contemplate the successful reward, after years of struggling. The Democratic party lias laid many opposing parties in their last resting places. Though leaders may wrangle and forces be divided, the grand name and sentiment of Democracy will “live forever and a day.’’

Nations are not ungrateful, as a rule. They over step law, logic and justice to preserve their dignity. It is so in the ease of the retirement of General Grant. The honor of the country is to he preserved more than it is to honor a man who has" had every exalted position that a grateful country could give him. The wealth of millionaires has been given him, and it was lost through mismanagement. But if a hero, a man deserving and in need, Solicits the nation’s aid, the dignity of the country does not allow that man to become a pauper. If it is proven the man has a competency for life, that is enough, and he need not expect more. The following brief allusions to General Grant’s triumph, and misfortunes will fill every friend of the mau with regret and mortification. ‘'How tile mighty have fallen :—” ? ^ “The nation’s dignify will uot permit the pitiful spectacle of a man broken down and in poverty, who has been at the head of her armies in the successful end of a great war, although his disaster was brought upon him by liis avarice and incompctfency. And because of tlie dignity of the nation, the provision must be according to the rank and style he has held. The relief will have to be made in the form of retiring him to the army as General, but on the retired list. This—as Senator Edmunds, the author of the bill admitted—is a perversion of the retired list, which is for officers in the service, hut he said that this was an exceptional case, and it is to be hoped that none like it will ever follow. It is understood that Gen. Grant is broken in health and spirits by bis broken fortunes and mortification. Grant thinks lie has a claim to be returned to his array pay because lie had that office and gave it up to be President. He put forth this during his second term in the presidency, conveying a claim to renomination because lie gave up a life office. It reached in effect to continual remunerations through life. In reason he had no claim; for he had. the life office of General, and took what he thought das better, " the presidency', and for bis second term his salary was doubled, giving him $200,<XK) for four years. He had received presents of houses, jPioney and other valuables, and the surplus of his salary over his expenses » -

wouhl hare been enough to lire oa if he had managed prudently. Xo matter how muuitkienily the government may endow him, he will end his life under a mountain of debt. He has had an extremely varied fortune. He was compelled to retire from the army, aud was iueomptent to get a living ont of it, when the eivil war picked him up. He rose to the top, was accredited with the national triumph, received valuable contributions, was made President, got his salary doubled,,wcut out of the Presidency rich, made a tom- of the world in royal state, received royal presorts, and cautc back to run for a third term.

i hernias avarice led Inm into nailstreet where he was utterly incompetent. He had a dream of being a many millionaire like Gould and Vanderbilt. and then one day he went down town to tlio office of Grant & Ward to find that he wa? many thousands jioorer than when the war pitched him up dependant on his father for a living. The nation must provide for him for her own dignity, but the most generous provision, can not make Gen. Grant other than a pitable object.*’ But the greatest mistake of General Grant’s life was the vetoing of the Equalization Bounty Bill, and at the same time siguing himself back pay and increasing his own salary to |a0,000 per year. For this, soldiers will always condemn him. TEE LEGISLATURE. The editorial correspondence was received too late for publication in full. The following itetns are taken from the letter: A constitutional amendment has been introduced in the House fixing the terms of county officers at, four years, and limiting each officer to one term. A good measure. Iu the House they arc red hot after the saloonists, and a bill has been proposed fixing their County licenses at $300, and assessing a fine of $200 for tlie selling or giving of liquors to minors. Over three hundred bills have been introduced iu the Legislature already, with more to follow, and it is now evident that either an extra session will have to he called, or else the majority of these measures remain iu the hands of the Committee—probably the latter. The house is after the grand jury, and si bill to abolish the entire system lias been introduced. This, it appears, is a good measure, aud would he the means of saving many a dollar to the State, besides doing away with what is generally believed to be a grand nuisance, if uot a humbug. There is no doubt now but that State Treasurer Coojier’s official affairs will be investigated, both the Democrats and Republicans being in favor thereof, and Mr. Cooper has also declared he was ready and willing for an investigation. The general impression is that nothing crooked will bediseovered, and that the whole matter is a piece of malicious spite-work on the part of cx-Gov. Porter, Be that as it may, the Democrats have no doubt acted wisely in insisting and vo ingfor the investigatior, as it will clear theirs and Mr. Cooper’s skirts of suspicion.

Brief Paragraph* Caucrrmlng Our Law makers. There arc twenty-five Union soldiers in the House. Speaker Jewett is prompt and al ways on time. He is a popular presiding officer. « There is but little doubt that the legiilature will appropaiate enough money to complete the three new insane asylums without delay.—[Evansville Journal. Lieutenant Governor Munson is proving a graceful presiding officer. The Senators to a man respeet the old hero, who is as patriotic in peace as he was gallant in war. We are glad to note a disposition on the part of the Democratic majority in our general assembly to expedite the business of the session. They evidently understand that the people are expecting a short session.—[Seymour Democrat. The Greenbaekersstill retain a lingering representative in the House and Senate—Robertson in the upper branch, and Dale, of Boone, in the lower, It is painful to contemplate Robertson occupying the seat of that intellectual pugilist, Jason B. Brown. The first vote on the question ot tempernneo was had just before adjournment. The question was to strikeout tho enacting clause of an act which provides for scientific instruction in the public, schools on the effects of alcohol ou the human system. The vote stood : Aye 45, nay48—a nou-party vote. Mosier continues to get his foot iu it deeper and deeper. This time ho has a bill with reference to legal advertising rates, winch reduces the present standard per square just one half, and thirtv-tivc cents for each additional insertion. Mosier does the heavy work on a fenco corner, patent bollv paper in Elkhart county, but the rural brethren will, regardless of political association, move for his scalp. —[Evansville Courier. .s The Evening Indianapolis News is thundering at the I.legislature tor a high license law. The News thinks this the best method of breaking up doggeries, drug store back-yard runs and olhei gin-perfumed iniquities. By the way, the high license law has more advocates than one would expect, for there are too many Democrats in the assembly who are averse to tinkering with the’ whisky traffic. They think the old adage of leaving well enough alone applicable in this case, and so it is. Senator Hillgass has introduced a

bill in the Senate for the gerrymandering of th 5 congressional districts. It proposes a chaugc iu the boundaries of all the districts, with the exception of the •Inst, and the lines are drawn erractically in tlic effort to make the Democratic rote rover the whole of the State. The Eighth district is made solidly Democratic, and the Eleventh, which has been Republican, is given, on the basis of the last election, a Democratic majority of over 1,000. The Second has Sullivan county taken oft' and Crawford and Monroe counties added thereto, by which 3.7UO majority is cut down to 1.300. The Sixth, Ninth and Tenth districts are given doubtfully to the Republicans, but the others are made Democratic.—Exchange.

Mr. Knight inis been imposed upon bp some of our enemies. A Mormon editor, in a recent issue of his paper, says: “The unknown woman who was killed at this place about three months ago by the ears proves to he one of the wives of the editor of the paper.” A new count appears to have revealed the fact.— Exchauge. With wheat so plentiful that Western farmers are using it for fuel, and freight rates lower than ever, the buyers of bakers' bread are paying just as they ilid during the war.' Moral: Make vourowu brand.—[1‘hila.Tiines. Boston Courier: Don't fret if you can not get into society. The oyster is often present at a supper when he would perhaps prefer to be at home in his bed.
