make his home with Lis uncle, who had j no wife and but one child, a beautiful ! girl of 10. Thus things went smoothly along. ! The daughter grew into a nandsome ' woman, .married, and went to the neigh- i boring home of her farmer husband. The nephew went to the city to college, but did not do well. The tmsophisti-, ! cated country lad found evil companions in the great school in the city, became entangled in a dishonorable aflair with the daughter of one of the professors of the school, and was sent out from, the college in disgrace, fleeing to escape the vengeance of eti outraged law. The only place where he could hope to find aid was in his old home. Honey he must have to escape from the country, and his uncle must be appealed to for that sum. Old Mr. De Pue was an honest man, and of that old Puritan stock that could forgive never where it would do an injury or compromise the laws of the State. Bo young Kodney had little to' anticipate from the interview, and, when it was over and ha was sent from the presence of the old man's righteous indignation, he had gained nothing by the visit. That night the good old man was murdered, and every finger pointed to young Kodney as the perpetrator of the dastardly deed. But there was not proof sufficient to convict, and, as the death of the uncle left him the wealthy estate, no one was anxious to prove the erime against him. So he was freed from prison, and, settling the less-important affair at school, he left the vicinity of his boyhood home. In the city he found a family to come out and work the place, but they never remained the second night. The evening they came was a stormy one, and the family gathered, in the blue sitting-room after supper. As all became quiet except the roaring of the storm "without, the conversation turned upon the subject of the death of the former occupant. " Well, Mr. Kodney was not the one that did the murder," Mrs. Chase was just saying, when a voice from a distance t?aid, " De Pne! De Pne ! " The Chase family looked from one to another in astonishment aud alarm until young Jack, the mischief-maker, was thoxight of by them. " It's only one cf Jack's tricks, mother," said her good husband, settling back to his pipe. " Don't thee become frightened." And the wind whistled around in the valley, past the old house, and off through the woods over the mountain, seeming to catch up the farmer's last words and whisper, "Frightened, frightened! ".' "Jack, Jack; call Jack," said Mrs. Chase. " That boy will yet be the death of me with his pranks." And the little pale-faced woman looked nervously out into the dark corners of the large room, and, spying the supposed culprit in a distant corner, went toward him. As she bent over the boy he was found to be fast asleep, and from away above came a voice that struck a chill to every heart, and they listened. - - "IlaS ha! De Pue! De Fuel" it seemed to say. - - " Father, diU you hear that 2" cried the little woman; " and Jack is asleep." " Ash i 7:rp! De TYo, De Fee ! " moaned the voice.

settling down to a' farmer's life, the kind of an occupation your father and grandfather followed before you, and, also, intend to get married." "Yes, sir," interrupted Ilobert, with a smile. "The same as my father and grandfather did before me." "lVelL" continued his uncle, "1 want to do well by you, and I intend to. Eat there is one thing I want you to do in paj-m.cn t for this," and the uncle's voice sank to a sadder tone and a troubled cloud passed over , his brow. "I want you to solve the mystery of the voice at the old house. I do not believe it is the work of spirits, and am sure my uncle, whom God knows was never harmed by hand of mine, would not if he could, come back to trouble others. Now, my boy, clear the old house of its ghost and the old homestead, with its broad acres, is jours. What do you say to the proposition? " " J nst this, sir ; I am not afraid of its ghost, as I will show you. To-morrow I will take some carpenters and go out and repair things. Fix it up in modern style, and next week come for you to go to a wedding in ' the old blue room, where not the ghosts, but youth and beauty, will hold full sway. And now for my preparations. Ned Stone will go out with me, and, while the men are at work, we will bury the 'ghost,' or chase the evil spirits back to the depths from whence they came;" and, with a merry laugh, Kob left the room to put his pian into operation. As the sun was sinking behind a dark line of thunder heads that lined the western sky, a few days after the above conversation, Robert Sandhope and Ned Stone were seated before a cheerful log fire in the blue room of the old house. The smoke was slowly curling up from the ends of their fragrant Ilavanas, as they lazily lounged in the easy chairs before the grate. " Where is our ghost, Ned?" said Robert, after a short lag in the conversation. " Gone to the devil, entirely," hummed Ned. " But, now, Ned, seriously, what do you think, or who do you think, it was, for farmer Jones told me only this morning that his second cousin, John Jones, of Jonesville, had seen a man who had heard the ' voice ' last -week." " Oh, did he ? " said Ned, and then both the young fellows laughed and joked until Ned looked out and exclaimed: " Well, now, if it isn't raining like fun ! " " Bike fan, like fun," repeated a voice. "What! did you repeat like fun, Kob? " asked Ned, turning quickly. " Why, no, Ned, I thought you were humming it over." " I never said it but once." " De Pue, De Pue," whispered a voice. ; " What do you say to that, Ned ? " asked Rob. " That is the voice, just as they said." " Oh, bosh," said Ned; " I didn't hear it." " You did, you did," whispered the voice from . overhead, and the . young fellows looked at each other. " What did it say then? " asked Kob. "I thought it said 'Oh, bosh! Oh, bosh!'" "Why, I thought it said, ' You did, yuM .."!'!," au-"-eied Ned, scmcwhat puzzled. "It's from up !'..; rs, any wry,' raid Ned, and here goes to find the old fallow.

INDIANA, WEDNESDAY, JANUARY 20, 1879.

THE OHIO jDIh'IGCIlACY. letter from S-nfor Tluirinaa Kenarlv of At the annual banquet of the Young Men's Democratic Club, of Columbus, Ohio, on the 8th of January, the following letter from Hon. A. G. Thurman was read: "' Washtsotos Crrr, Jan. 0, 1879. KwMii John D, Sulxivan, A. 1). Heffner, and others, Committee. ('elamhvi, Ohio. ilr Dear Sirs I fully expected to attend tbe banquet on the 8th imt, t Columbiis, awl to enjoy that reunion of political and personal frit-ads on a day so memorable in the history of the republic, and so much cherished by Its Democracy; bat, nt the last moment, and to my great regret, I f.ni that it will nofe he in my power to 'en joy th&t pleasure. I am just bprfnaib.tr to recover from a severe cold that has aCiictcd mo for -a w eek or more, and I cannot but recognise the ..fact that it would be imprudent for me, in euch extremely cold weather, to make a trip requiring 800 miles travel aud crossing the motuitams twice. Permit to offer a few reflections upon the toast, " Jacksonian Democracy," the theme on which I -w as appointed to npeak. Of course some other speaker will take my place, and do justice to the subject; but the privilege may be accorded to me of jotting down gome very brief ami pertinent observations. 1 wieh to reeall attention to some of the mowt marked characteristics of the Democracy of the time of Andrew Jackson. 1 refer to the time when, he w 8 a candidate for the Presidency, and when he filled the Presidential chair. 1. The Democracy were then eminently, if not pre-eminently, distinguished by their" devotion to the Union or the United States. South and .North, East and West, that sentiment was cherished by every true Democrat. Subsequent events chiilod, and at length for a time suspended it in the South, but the happiest circumstances of our uresent condition (thanks to the influence of Democratic principles) is that the love of the Union is everywhere restored, and that its preservation ia a "fixed principle of the Democratic party in the South. 2. The party was equally distinguished by its love of the constitution." xt sought to preserve it in all its vigor and benwrioonco by giving it a national and rational interpretation; and it battled, manfully and constantly, against those latitudiuarian constructions that threatened W convert the Government into an unlimited centralized despotimi; and, on the other hand, against all the vices that menaced the existence of the Union. And, permit me to eay, that the principles of Jacksoniaii Dcirtdcracy,in this respect, are as important to-day as they ever were at any period of our history. 3. The Jacksotiiaii Democracy were the determined foes of monopoly They could m-'t be otherwise, for the very fo'odatiol of the party was the doctrlut) of equal rights. By whatever names they may have been called, there have been, and perhaps ever will be, but two great parties in America the Democratic party, asking nothing - but equal rights, and an opposing party whose leaders have e ver sought, and ever will seelt, social privileges created bylaw. Yiho can forget the great battle fought by the Democracy, under the lead of Jackon, against tlie Bank of the United Stales, and who can fail to see that a desperate etrngglo against a far more powerful combination of capital and privilege than was presented by that Institution is now impending? Will the Democracy of to-day follow the example set by their fathers, of indexible opposition to special privilege, or will they prove recreant to the prineipleK the history an tl the traditions of their party? This is a question that must ere long be answered. My own belief is that it will be answered as it ought to be, and that the Democrats of to-day will prove themselves to be, what their fathers -were, tt'He men. They will be earnest, b"t not rash ; determined, but "not unreasonable; destructive of wrongs ami abuses, and conservative of all that should exist in a free republic. 4. The "Jacksonian Democracy"- were, a party of economy. The ordinary at tmial expenses of Jackson's administration (that is, tha exiietifcs of the Government exclusive of pavhlcnts in discharge of tho public debt), were but fifteen million, or thereabouts. Now, onr ordinary annual expenses are nearly ten times that sum. What a contrast! While our population has increased but little more than tfnve-fold, our expenses have increased nearly ten-fold. Is it not high time that we should -return to the economical principles and practices of tho Jacksonian Democracy ? Thee points, few in number but transcendent in importance, I have thought it proper to note for tlie consideration of our friends. Others might be stated, but these most suffice for today. Gentlemen, I know that the banquet will be er. joyed by those who attend it;, I trust that itwill prove" beneticial to others as welt I trust that its influence will be felt in reviving- Jacksonian Democracy, and in combining thfs opponents of the liepubliean party in a grand effort to free the country from uiisrale and corruption, I havo the honor to be yours truly, A G. Thubman. Gen.' Thomas Ewing addressed the assemblage after the reading of the Thurman letter.

Trails were discovered leading in the direct ion. of a large range of hills some eighteen miles northwest of Blui? station, a distance of forty-six miles from this post, and were followed by Capt. Wesselig until he was within three miles of the hills, where he halted and formed skirmish lines. All four companies deployed rmishers. Company F, Bieut. Baxter, moved from south to northeast; Company II, Capt. Wesson's, took up a position directly opposite; Company E, Capt. Lawson, closed in at the mouth of the ravine where the Indians had intrenched themselves, and Company A moved to their rear, thus hemming them in on all sides and leaving no possible avenue of escape. The Indians had placed themselves in a deep washout, keeping under cover. As soon as the skirmishers were within 150 yards of the savages' stronghold the Lit I er opened a deadly fire, killing Sergt. Tr.ggart. Privates Brown and Nelson, of Company A, and dangerously, if not fatally, wounding Private Deboisse, of Company II. Despite the dreadful volley poured into the troops, they steadily advanced, and when within seventyfive yards of the savages' position fire was opened on all sides with terrible effect. At this moment Capt.
