1 The World’s Fair and Cotton Centennial was opened, at Ngw Orleans, last Tuesday. The machinery was set in motion by Presu. dent Arthui', at the White House, by means of electricity. The Exposition promises to be the greatest ever held, but, as yet, is in a very imperfect state. On Tuesday last, at Indianapolis, the attorneys having Mr. Blaine’s libel suit against the Sentinel in in charge, dismissed the suit, under instructions from Mr. Blaine. The reasons given by Mr. Blaine for his course in this matter are to the effect that he felt it useless to attempt to get a fair trial in Indiana, When almost every Democrat in the state- has had hi > mind poisoned by the foul slanders of the Sentinel, echoed as they wore by the whole howling herd of Hoosier Democratic editors and stumpers.

James G. Blaine: —It is certainly an astounding fact that the section in which friendship for the union in the day of its trial and agony it is still a political disqualification should be called now to rule over the union, xlll this takes place during the lifetime of the generation that fought the war, and elevates into practical command of the American government the identical men who organized folds destruction aud plunged us into the bloodiest contest of modern times.

Concerning wliat are known as “standing advertisement,” in newspapers, wliicli some merchants say are useless* it has been remarked, and truly, that they command confidence. The man ,vho for years resides in a community and lives a respectable life, even though be .be of moderate ability, will grow in the .confidence and esteem of his fellows. On the same-principle a newspaper advertisement becomes familiar to the eyes of the reader. It may net.be carefully read every day, still it makes the name and business of a man familiar and its continued presence in the columns of a paper inspires confidence 'in the stability of of the advertiser.—Ex.

Mr. Wood’s as a Demagogue.

•Crown Point Kesris tor. So oDe doubts Mr. Wood's .ability to electioneer for himself. Me was •elected Prosecuting attorney in this district when there was a Republican majority in it. Not on account of his peculiar fitness for the position. lie was elected State Senator from this district over 1-lon. Bart. Woods, who was an older man, with legislative experience, of good character, a’farmer, and a man of more ability than Mr. Wood, and with a Republican maj rity to back him. In that case, Mr. Wood's success-could not be attributed to tire question of locality, as they were both citizens of Lake county. There seems to be but one way of accounting for Mr. Wood's success in getting Republican votes, and that is his persistent, constant begging for \otes in las peculiar m Me habitually undresses every man he meets vft.ii a familiarity that seems to say: know you and ieel interested in your health and prosperity. 1 This taeuhy lias been vyoith hundreds of votes to him. After ti e result of the election this fail waskno .vn and the fact that he Was defeat, d In Mr. Owen, a gentleman jjersonailv unknown to the people of a portion of this district, Mr. Wood lost his self possession and denounced in the most in-uit-ing manner Republicans, whose only offense was voting for Air. Owen. Perhaps Mr- Wood sees ids mistake row; but it is too late. It uas union u„ rate for Mr. Wood that Lis opponent is a gentleman of more tirxn-ordinary ability. Ills character couid not be successfully assailed. The charge that he was a “tiekly little Campbeiite preacher* and a temperance n an,’’ did not have the desired (ffect. When Mr. Oweh made the canvass and addressed large crowds of people in the open air, agd held his audience for two hours, the people liked the man. Tim Register has ala-ays said that it was •had policy to under rate Mr. Wood.

At The County Jail.

A representation of The Rkihbeican made a brief call at the Jasper* county jail, last Monday. He found that, for its purpose, admirable structure, in the best of order. It is well warmed, well lighted, well vcntil'ated. and withal perfeatly secure. To have a look at, and a talk with the two inmates of -the jail, were the chief objects ofb.ur visit. ( h lauley Mmm. ki;. C harley Mutchler, the Benton county horse thief, is a powerful looking young man. with a large body but a small i head, and is evidently very deficient in ; intellectual pofver. lie wears a ven amiable und even .innocent expression upon his countenance and has bui UttxCof the appearance of the hardened criminal about him. 11c is entire ly without education not being able to j write or even read. He has lead a. roving life for sonic time, li>~iug in | many dill'.-rent places, at JFentpnville, I Mich.,'among the rest, where he has a j sweet heart, lie has the free range of j all that portion of the jail ofitside the ; ceil enclosure, and seems cheerful and resigned to his imprisonment. W ;->iiiN eu Wartn ek. The slayer of John Drager, -is kept more closely confined. Tho only range j allowed h'.ia is his cell.and the narrow gallery fronting, the range of colls. We-found him sitting in his cut! door, with face half buried in his handkerchief, ami evidently absorbed in mos - j unenviable • meditations, fie scarcely glanced up tus the sheriff and visitors 1 vntered the jail, and showed no dis-:

position whatever. to attempt any conversation. A few minutes later Mr. Hamel Fairchild, t-p», and a tornior neighbor, of both Wartner and his victim, entered the jail. Wartner rose and shook hands through the gallery bits, and j'm'nml lately broke into haul ‘weeping, and- remained in that condition during all the. time we remained in the j-aii. He is a strong, well built man, just in the prime of life, physically. 11 is appearance, to a casual observer do,es nothin ahy-degivo, indicate him to be a mau capable pt sti-h a deed as a chain of eire.uei s auces ami his own eotifessin, „htve fastened upon him, For a few days immedat ely after makmg his cdnf. ss on. his bodi'y he ilt!i seemed i:r a very bad condition, b it lie has since rallied, and now appears to enjoy gpo 1 health ! Accpnling to the report of his jail mate, | Mutcliler, lie does not appear to rest j wed at night, however. Wartner’s I entire I amity consists of a wire anl: five children, two of the latter have! been given a home. for. the present, ui ll Mr.Bigler, ot Keener tp , while the. wife and three children nr« now at the county asylum. .
