Tiik cholera in Spain increases. Time work of retrenchment and teforra goes steadily on throughout the country. The Russian bear continues to growl' at England, and the old bovine is ogiusiderably excited. The Fort Wayne Jofinwrf says that Mr. Hendricks is the biggest Vice President the country has ever had. Soott Ray haa “ne earthly use” for the eivfl service reform Miss Nancyism. Ray’s writings and speeches are full of meat. Millions of money to worthy veterans fc given, by the new administration, but the frauds and imposters get not a cent.“All tho werid’s a market, and wen' and women are the buyers and ‘sellers,” is ouc of Miss Cleveland’s pointed sentences.

The prosecution oft ho polygamists goes bravely on iu Utah. A large number hare been sent to the penitentiary ju tlte last two or three months. ! . More has been done to crush out ' the Mormon institutions by this administration than was done by all the Republican admiuistrationofhc country has ever had. iKDiAN.vis not going to-hwoc such a poor wheat crop as despotidtney would make it appear.- There is more dheerfulness iu consequence,-and that -> means more business. Tiif. report in the newspapers that the President had called a1 halt in making appointments, is a mere fabrication. The Radicals will be turned out as speedily as possible. The publisher of Godev’s Lady Book giVes—eaulibti as follows: “A person calling himself “Noble” and _ representing that he is an agent for Godey’s Lady's Kook is a fraud, and iif arrested, I will prosecute him. Godey’s does not employ auy agents.” The editor of the San Franciciau, says the Indianapolis Herald, has probably been experimenting in pass- * ing an ice cream saloon with his own sister and some other fellow’s sisler which leads him to remark: ‘‘There is nothing so inexpensive as a sister’s love.” _ “Success aud failure are designed by God, and borne by men. No man lhallv controls his own destiny. The great Engineer grasps the lever, opens the throttle-valve, aud we go bounding over the track, only to take* a side track when the Engineer blows for a change of switch.” A hex always kicks backwards after laying an egg. A Bridgeport (Yankee has turned this fact to account by inventing a device to prevent the sale of stale eggs. When she kicks she hits an electric disk, to which is attacked a rubber stamp, and the apparatus stamps the date on each egg._

A Boston statistician says that $1 buy* as much of the necessities of life to-day as $1.00 in 1875, $1.32 in 1855, 81 cents in 1815, and $1.19 iu 1825. In sMrer words, tl»e purchasing power of $1 is 19 per cent, greater than it was in 1855. A dollar will buy more today than in most previous periods iu . the history of the Nation. Am. the Republican loaders and organs are loud and emphatic now in t;hcit\ demands for “civil service reJj- formj” since a Democratic administration has come into power and they are in dauger of losing their official heads. We have heard the same old x story before. “The voice is the voice of Jacob but the hands are the hands ofEsaw.” “Consistency, thou art a jewel!” The telegraph informs us that the Republican convention in Virginia {tut a resolution in their platform demanding pensions for confederate soldiers—the first action of the kind ever taken by any convention, noliti cal or otherwise. Urn “l-oil" Republican papers can now get upon their rear (icdal extremities and give one long and loud howl. Labor is not protected by the Republican high tariff. Cheap laborers are imported from Canada, France and other foreign countries to take the place of men working on half time. The “industries” hate been protected, because they were “infants.” They have now grown to be ffrhtding old monopolies, and the laboring man will no longer be deceived by the glittering bait that protec' ttou protects the laborer. Iw the midst of little perplexities during life we should not forget ts congratulate ourselves that we live in a country free from monarchism, feudalism and eerflsm. There is nothing in the United States to prevonl any one from aspiring to and acquiring the highest place in the civil government, the greatest wealth in the commercial world, or the «rst plneo in the intellectual arena. Lincoln was a humble laborer, Vanderbilt a boatman, Greeley a poor fttrmcr’s son.

THU PRESIDENT. ^In company with Judge .'Robinson, of this State, the editor of this paper had the pleasure of calling On President Cleveland last Thursday. In a few moments conversation he compltinentcd the Southern part of this State on its Stroup Demoeratie vote, lie receives all visitors cord (ally, and wears his great honors a nd heavy burdene with apparent ease. His shoulders are broad, aud all the attacks of cuerales will not cause him to weaken; his intellect, clehr ami distinct; his perception of men and measures, acujp; his earnest desire for the welfare of all people, and the success of the Democratic party—all these arc plainly visible in the make-up of our chief executive. And from the knowledge obtained of his subordinates, we can assure our people that the administration is Democratic from top to bottom. IX-SEN1T0R JOS. E. MePONALD. This noble old Roman was at Washington City last week giving substantial aid to Indianians in securing places in the government service, to which they are justly entitled. The ex-Senator takes genuine delight in using his influence for the benefit of Democratic aspirants for official favor, and iris indorsement is a strong rcccommcndatiou. Mr. McDoimld has more influence with the administration than any citizen in the United States, and prominent appointments have shown that when he gets the ear of tire President you can prepare to hear something drop.

Wmu the Republicans are making so inucli ado about the civil service reform, we trust they will pause long enough to read the following, taken from an Eastern paper, and which shows how the old thing worked under a Republican administration. “The case of young Mr. Harley of Queen Anne’s County illustrates how civil service reform works when administered by Republicans. Mr. Harley is a Democrat, a fresh college graduate, and a bright young lawyer, who made application to the Civil Service Commission for examination for the postal service. lie made the highest record among all who wore examined at that time—over ninetysix in a possible 100. His name was scut four times to Mr. Adrecn, the iwstinaster at Baltimore, but every time Mr. Adreen passed him by and appointed a Republican with a iower examination record, and Mr.' Harley was then ruled off the list of eiigibles because he had been rejected four times. Fortunately, Mr. Veasev was able to correct the’ injustice that had been done to Mr. Harley. We have not observed that the civil service journals which como to this office have ever made any comments iu the case of Mr. Harlev.” An amendment to an act regarding public offenses and their punishment passed by the recent legislature provides that any person who shall knowingly allow Canada thistly to grow and mature upon his land or upon any land that may he in his charge shall be fined not more titan twenty nor less than five dollars, and for tire second and each subsequent offense the flue shall lto doubled. The same penalties are provided for supervisors of highways who may allow the thistles to grow on any road in their districts and for roadmasters of railway lines who may permit Canada thistles to grow about the depots, stations or along lire right-of-way of the portions of said railroad that arc under their supervision. The law is a wholesome one and should be enforced._ PROTECTIVE TARIFF HUMBUG. Tlte Indianapolis News an Independent Republican paper, very clearly and briefly states the difference between theory and fact on some tariff points a» follows: Protection must be just ified by fact uot by theory. It is theory that we have prospered under high tariffs and retrograded underlow ones.

It is fact that under high tariff we have just six limes as much panic, depression ana hard times as under low tariff. Theory—Protection is necessary in order to make high wages. Fact—Our wages were higher thau English wages before we had protection aud the difference was greater. Wages advanced faster under low tariffs than h igher ones. Theory—Protection is necessary because our wages are higher. Fact—This contradicts the other theory, making protection both a cause and a consequence of high wages. Manufacturers never successfully compete with foreign products where wages are not high. England, the most successful manufacturing country, pays higher wages thau any in Europe. Theory—Protection is necessary to make iron ip this country. Fact—We made more iron in this country than we could use before we ha«T protection. Since wo have had it we hnve never made enough for our own use. Theory—Protection is ncccssarv to diversify labor. Fact—American labor was as diversified before protection as it has been since, and protection has absolutely killed some labor. Look at our shipbuilding industry. Theory—Protection is necessary because our rate of interest is higher than Europe's. Fact—Interest is high only wheu profits are high,except iu time’ of panic. Interest, is now nearly at low here as in Europe, aud is sometimes lower, but there are those who are insisting that an average of 41>^ per cent, protective tariff is not high enough and that it must lie raised to 45 per cent., and generally the tariffItes are imitating on protection now as vehemently as ever. Theory—Protection increases prb-cs for the benefit of the workingmen. Fact—Eleven steel rail mills in this country, as we showed, sold 3,000,000 tons or steel rails at au average price of $25 per ton more than they cost in Europe. This represents $75,000,000. < Of this the whole amount paid to the workmen engaged iu making the rails in excess of the European wages was $4,000,000. The net profits of the mill owners on the work were over 150,000,000. These are samples of the ilifference between the theory and fact of protect ion.

DEMOCRACY. Among the many good things said at the met ting of the democratic editors at Lako Malinfeockee, the following extract from thewclcome address of CT atrley llccvc, is opportune and pointed: IHif . Among its propositions for consideration and demanding most thoughtful attention arc the relations between the capitalist and laborer; or that capital and labor arc mutually dependent on each other, they should bo so adjusted in ail enterprises as that both capitalists and laborer shall have an interest in the results of the mutual investment of capital and labor. That direct taxation and statue laws shall be equal in their operations on the property and people. That there shall be no class legislation. That there shall be no grants of special privileges without reservation of full control bv the State, and none that will permit of monopoly. That there shall be no discrimination between the moueyed obligations of the government. That no unfit persons shall be elected to places of public trust. That in ail private corporations and business associations there shall be individual liability of ewiicre, stockholders, and persons controlling. That for coinage by government the unit of value aud the ratio of value betweeu metals used shall be fixed by law; and all coins, of whatever made, shall be of full value by that unit and ratio. There shall be no grants of public! lands to private corporations or hv way of subsidy, and there shall be immediate reclamation of those heretofore granted where the conditions of the graut have been violated. The odious provisions iu our shipping and navigation law shall be repealed without delay. There shall he immediate and adequate provisions made for the national defense. Indirect taxation shall be to the extent of the needs of government for necessary expenditures, and no more than that; and that levy shall lie on such importations as will raise the most revenue with the burden on the classes best able to bear it.

1 here should be continuous restraint of all criminals, imbeciles, and persons of iusane mentality—making them useful, aud comfortable without extravagance; and procreation by any of them should be prohibited. ' High license, aud local option as to license, should be among the provisions regulatiug the retail liquor traffic. There should be the free ballot for every voter, with proper protection of the ballot, and disfranchisement of every person who prostitutes its use hi elections. These, with other propositions to be carried into practice.in government, are Democratic propositions, advocated by the ablest men among Democrats; aud the best methods for enforcing them is for the consideration of this association, and that consideration is a special duty. The Democratic party can not die, for if it should, the Nation would cease to be a Republic. Nature would modrn the wreck of such a Natiou, And death shrink back from sitting on its tomb! INDIANA. - 4 On the 4th of July, Maurice Thompson read the following exquisite little poem at Craw ford* ville. It is not merely a beautiful poem, but it is an awakoner of the State pride and enthusiasm of Indinua men and women. What he says is true. Our State is coming to the front. Indiana was not one of tbe old thirteen, she is of a younger generation of States; but she is as strong ns site is young. The Wost is the garden of the world and Indiana is the queen of the West. Let me give you now— “X HEALTH IT) OCR STATE." Upon our flag there is a star More bright to us than all the rest— Our State, our State! a health to her, The queeuliest of the queenly West! Oh, younr and strong and true, Upward and onward is her way; Her blessings fall like honey dew; She revels in the dawn of day. She can not boast a Mayflower crew And Plymouth Rock beside the bc» ; At Bunker Hill her men were few; She made no raid on English tea. But wlliat of that f She stormed with G rant On every battle field he won! On Lookout height you saw her plant Her flag between the clouds and suu I Here’s to our State! In peace and war Dearer to us than all the rest; Upon our flag tho brightest star— The queeniiest of the queenly West!

THE CIVIL SERVICE MACHINE. A Quaker story is thus applied to the civil service by the offiee seekers: “T. B. Rynder, ef Pennsylvania, says that when a young man he lived in a, quiet Quaker town, whose meetinghouse had never re-echoed the souud of music, except that of the human voice. A proposition to have instrumental music had been carefully discussed, and it was decided that tv very mild mclodeou was the required article. This was purchased in due time, aud, with an eye to economy, iu case the change was not satisfactory, a second hand one was secured. On the first Sunday a tier a tune had been ground out of the instrument, a lay brother remarked to his neighbor, “Friend, dou’t thee feel to move to speak ?” “Yea,” answered the friend. “Verily,.if the good Lord wishes us to worship him by machinery, lie ought to give us a better machine.” General Warner thinks with Render, that if the Civil Service machine is to do appointing, there ought to be a better machine. The followingdispatch from Washington tells why the postmasters have been giving new bonds: “Some time ago Postmaster Geucral Vilas decided that postmasters who had not within five years filed their bonds, should renew the same. Iu conformity with this order, postmasters have been filingaiew bonds at the rate of several hundred a day. It would seem that many of these postmasters have been showing their bouds around among their neighbors, for of late complaints have been coming in thick and fast from Democrats protesting against the Postmaster General reappointing Republicans as postmasters. The ignorant have taken the new bonds for reappointment.” This is the Cincinnati Commercial Gazette’s “opinion” of a prominent character in the last campaign: “The fraud, St. John, is one of the half-dozen cranks and boodiers, fools and spite-workers and hlatlierous lunkheads who feel that they are of importance because their unscrupulous aud unseemly combination defeated Blaine.” Business men have bad so little to encourage them for the past year, that It is gratifying to them to look forward to the legitimate causes which arts sure to improve trade.

• ^OOK NOTICES. The relative speed of English and American railway trains has been a subject of much heated discussion between travelers representing John Bull and Uncle Sain. A writer, in the forthcoming (August) Harpers, in a pvper on “English and American Railways,” discusses the question in some detail, and sums up the controversy by declaring, “The truth of the matter is'that w® have trains in America which are as fast as the fastest trains iu England, and tliatthev have trains in England which are ns slow as the slowest trains in America,” though the average speed is greater in England because of better road-beds, nveidcnco of grade crossiugs, a better system of signals, and shorter stops. On the other hand, “we carry our passengers, high and low, far more cheaply than they do in England.” The paper com pares the other points of the rival systems closely and interestingly, and is rich in illustrations by S. G. McCutcheon, Allred Parsons, C. 8. Reinhart, and others. Godey’s Lady’s Book for August is a delightful number, handsomer in appearance, and more generally satisfactory tnau any of its predecessors Every month seems to mark a stride in the progress of this popular magazine. The present issue opens with a beautiful chiaro-oscuro cut of “My Pets,” a Hue study of animal life as contrasted with graceful girlhood, and grouped against a strong back-ground of nature. The illustrations this month are capital Aseiiesof letters describing the trials of one pressed into service to write another’s love-letters, under the title of “A Posstscript,” are particularly good. A powerful serial storv, translated from the French by Emily Lennox, continues in this number, under the title of “The Yoke of IToiior.” An entertaining conversation on chicken-culture, incubating, etc., forms a feature of the book, and introduces a series of projected articles on the useful and ornamental occuSatlons of women, “Phillipa’s Poeketloney” will furnish some valuable suggestion to women who are longing for some way to turn a profitable penny. A short parlor drama, called “ile is an Englishman,” is given this month for the use of summer idlers who do not care to go too deeply into the histrionic. “Bella Donna” is a very clever story of limited length, and Mrs. Hayden’s “Cup of Cold Water” is well calculated to win the faucy of all lovers of romance Godey’s never looked better than it looks now. In this day, when so many old publications are verging toward decrepitude and dotage, it is a pleasure to find one that defies the march of time, and still preserves its pristine vigor and freshness while the years roll on That all may be convinced of U» merits, the Publisher offers to send the book for the remainder of the year for 75 cents.

CAPITAL VERSUS MERIT. It is possible that money dipped into a bounteous supply of printer’s ink, is to be used to teach false ideas. Why is it that such persistent anathemas should all at once lie hurled against the use of ‘-Potash and Potash Mixtures?” Those who insist that Potash is a poison do so because that is the way they have of fighting 11. B. B., as the. latter contains potash properly combined. Opium, morphine, strychnine, aconite, whisky, etc., are all deadly poisons, and are daily destroying the lives of iieople, and why do not these men cry out against them? It is because there is uo money iu sight to do bo. Potash is not regarded as a poison, and very seldom harms any one; but those who abuse it arc using a vegetable poison teu times as violeut. Iodide of Potash, in propl er combination, is regarded by the medienprofession as the quickest, grandest, and most powerful blood remedv ever known to mini. Those who believe in revealed combinations and Indian ibolisbness are surely in a condition to become rather “cranky'’ in their ideas at any time. We assert understandingly that Posasli, as used in the manufacture of B. B. B., is not a poison, mid the public need uot place any confidence in assertions to the contrary. Why is It thatiq one thousand letter? which we receive we never hear a word against its use? The truth is B. B. B. is working such wonders in the cure of all blood poison, scrofula, rheumatism, catarrh, etc., that otliers are trembling in sheir boots, and cry aloud, “poison” “frauds,” because they fear its triumphant march. Let any man or woman ask any respectable doctor or druggist if we are not right. Do not be deceived, bnt go right along and call for B. B. B. and be cured. It Is making five times more cures in Atlanta than all other blood remedies combined. We ilou’t say-that otliers are poisons or frauds; ivq are not that eosily alarmed, but we say aurs is the best, aud we have the proef. Send for our 32-page boook, eree^aue be convinced.
