RECALLING
AOLDLAHG SYHE OLD CORRESPONDENT OF THE PALLADIUM, ALMOST CONTEMPORARY WITH IT Writes of Its Early Days and of the Men Connected With It. Special Correspondence: San Marcos, Texas, July 22 It is a good while since I wrote anything for the Palladium; it was at least some time prior to the latest change in its management. As you are aware, however, I have been receiving your paper for the past few months, intending to write something for it. but circumstances beyond my control, 'JWWWm,mijllWIMMlll Isaac H. Julian. have prevented till this time. The Pal ladium is only a few years my junior, and finding it in my circle when I be1 r it tit 1 Come a reader, 1 naturaiiv tooK 10 it." Not only so, but I preserved a oodly number of its earlier issues. In this, as it turned out, I was ably reinforced by an old neighbor, James Willits, who had a farm on Greensfork. He was one of the greatest readers and preservers of newspapers of his time. He was a staunch Dem ocrat, but did not discriminate against the opposite party in his reading, while I, a whig by family training, was equally omnivorous. Mr. "Willits was an old man at the time of which I speak and died long ago. A son who succeeded him, being about moving to the West, and knowing my weakness, turned over a barrel or so of his newspaper remains to me. They contain samples from various sections of the country, political, religious and mis cellaneous, dating from near the beginning of the 19th century downward I actually "went through" the mass as well as m yleisure would permit, winnowing the wheat from the chaff, and brought the residum with me to Texas. It was thus that I was enabled to add rare copies of the earlier issues of fthe county papers, including the Palladium. That paper was started January 1, 1831, by Nelson Boon. While I have never seen a number of the Palladium issued by Mr. Boon, I knew him a few years later at Centerville. He died there while engaged in publishing the Western Times. He was succeeded on the Palladium by Thos. J. Larsh, later of Eaton, I. I have but one number of the paper is sued by him Vol. 2, No. 24, June 16, 1832. Many years after I met Mr. Larsh in Richmond during my resi dence there. My fnrther recollec tion of Palladiums is about as folows; Under John Finley and D. P Holloway about twenty numbers; un der Finley alone about a dozen; un der Holloway and Davis upwards of twenty. Of these early Palladiums, those in which the hand of Mr. Fin ley was indicated were to my mind by odds the most interesting. I do not mean editorially, those were not the days of elaborate editorials; a "stiokful ' ' per issue was often made to suf fice. I mean the literary taste dis played in the selections, chiefly e se ries of short stories and sketches, some of which, after the lapse of so many years, I still vividly recall. Mr. Finley left the tripod of the Palladium and removed to Centerville to take charge of the office of Clerk of the Wayne Circuit Court, to which he had been elected after a bitter contest, over Samuel Hannah, I believe, in 1837. Before passing him I am minded to notice an incident in his life which must long ere this have been forgotten, save by an occasional explorer of old newspaper files. I allude to his candidacy for congress against Caleb B. Smith, in 1845. If

mature age, and a good mid, and attainments, arid no little experience in life, having served in public capacities at the state capital, and having
but recently retired from a seven years service as clerk of the court, in which he had given general satisfac tion, it ought not to have been a matter of surprise that he should have aspired to serve his country in a broader field, for which he was no doubt well qualified. True, he was no public speaker, but neither was Washington, Jefferson, Franklin, Irving, and many other notable Americans. But Finley 's crime was that he chose to fall back on his " reserved rights" as a man, and make an independent race, al though the party to which he adhered, had nominated another. In other words, while acknowledging fealty to the principles of his party he declined to be its slave. This of course brought down upon him the condemnation of mere partisans, of whom none were more severe than his late partner, Hoi loway. Finley defended his position through the press, neatly and cogently. The pen may be mightier than the sword, but it can have no showing when pitted against a stump orator with a mixed multitude as umpire. Mr. Finley ran the race through and was defeated, but he went into private life with no dimunition of respect on the part of thinking people. And Mr. Holloway, who was so great a stickler for strict party discipline in his case, in 1864 hismelf "kicked out of the traces" even more flagrantly. He not only refused to place at the head of his editorial column the name of a member of his party who had won the nomination for congress by a decided majority, but actually continued to keep up the name of his defeated competitor, until preemptorily required by President Lincoln to substitute it by that of the actual nominee, which he then made haste to do. To return to the Palladium. Alhough I kept no file beyond 1840, I continued to receive it at my rural Indiana home several years longer. Meantime I first saw myself in print n some articles which contributed in . i it 1 -1 O 1 1 my early teens to me r amny ocnooimaster, edited by Dr. John 1. rlummer, and printed by Holloway & Da vis. It lasted but a few months, and I then transferred my contributions o the Palladium, writing on a variety of topics, in prose and verse, winding up with a series of essays, after the manner of the Spectator, entitled the lustic, by Phaeton Clodhopper, The year 1S44 was that of my majority, and I set great store in anticipating the casting of my first vote for Henry Clay for President; but making a trip to the west I was unavoidably de ained till after the election, causing one of the greatest griefs of mj; early ife. In the spring of 1846 I removed to Iowa, remaining: till the fall of 1850. Meantime the Free soil and Anti-Slavery questions had taken pos session of the public mind; old ideas and issues were passing away. The editors of the Palladium, however, clung to the old order of things. now found in them bitter and unspar ing opponents, more especially after I had entered upon the publication of he True Republican. It was not un til some years after my removal to Texas that I resumed relations with the Palladium, then under the friend ly management of Isaac Jenkinson Before closing a word further of B. W. Davis, Holloway 's partner. He was aunique character, unexcelled as a pertinacious personal paragrapher, although I will confess that, not un likely I may have ranked with the "other side" as a close second in his special line. But in spite of our rather sharp rivalry, I continued to enter tain a kindly regard for his memory because of his having favored my early literary aspirations, as also a fel low feeling for him as a hard and faithful worker in a thankless, profitless vocation. IIe had an inveterate proclivity for getting off puns, good, bad and indifferent; also for the profuse use of italics, and I cannot but smile while attempting to fancy his feelings, had he lived to the present day, at finding his favorite typographical figure entirely ruled out of the newspaper world of letters.

RICH BIERS
Thought to fce With Camp of Gypsies Near Monticello. Winamac, Ind., July 25. "Rich" Byers, the missing Seeleyville boy, is believed to be held captive by a band f gypsies who camped near this city last night, and who are now supposed to be on the road between Pulaski and Monticello. Sheriff Wendt, accompanied by Deputy Finnigan and a number of armed citizens, left here this evening in pursuit of the supposed kidnap pers and it is thought that they will overtake them early tomorrow morn ing. Friday morning the gypsies camped in the vicinity of Monterey and Lawon and a number of the residents of those towns report having seen a white boy answering the description of the missing Seeleyville boy in one of the wagons. Nothing was thought of the incident at the time, but last night John Brown, a liveryman, read ing a newspaper happened to see a picture of the missing boy. He at once recognized the similarity between the newspaper cut and the boy he had seen crying and trying to climb out of one of the covered wag ons occupied by the gypsies. He re called that when he had stopped to look at the boy the man in the wagon lowered the curtain and threatened the boy if he did not quit crying. Early this morning Brown started out to trace the gypsy band and when he arrived in this city he notified the authorities of his discovery. By use o2 the telephone it wTas learned that the gypsies had passed through Pulaski about 11 o'clock this morning and that they were traveling much faster than they had been the day before. They were headed toward Monticello and the officers expect to overtake them before they reach that city. If the boy does prove to be the son of Dr. Byers it is believed that the gypsies will resist any effort to take him. Deafness Cannot Be Cured. by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deaf ness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. Wheu this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound of imperfect hearing and wen it is entirely closed, deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed fornver; nine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give one hundred dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free. F. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo, Ohio.
