BE , MOTa. xxxviii-., . !v ' THREE TEARS AGO. ' On the 15th day of April, at 7-20 A. M., ABRAHAM LINCOLN passed peacefully and unconsciously to Lis reward. ' - " ' Ob, alow to smite and swift to spare, ? , Gentle, and merciful, and just ! ; Who in the fear of God did'st bear The sword of power a nation's trust.

One of those little romances of which the French are so fond has lately taken place in Paris, and is thus described in a journal: Air. Robert, an immensely wealthy and highly accomplished elegant, well known not only for his valuable collections of paintings and medieval relics, but for his rare skill as a deeigner and painter, hearing that one of his tenants, a Mr. B. whom he had never seen, kept one of the most extensive ateliers of fancy boxes and ornamental objects in France, called on him with a view to make his acquaintance. Entering the counting room he found a good natured, eccentric gentleman of middle age, who greeted him, ' and exclaimed: - "I suppose that you also have -seen my advertisement, and come to apply for that situation as designer?" For a joke; M. Robert replied that he had. M. B. supplied him with paints and brushes, and requested him to produce a design for a casket. M. Robert soon found that what Mr. B. really wanted was an artist who would strictly carry out his own ideas, and that these were pure and formed on an extensive knowledge of art. In a short time he produced a sketch which suited the employer to a dot; "a point." M. Robert very gravely engaged himself, exacted good wages, and insisted on having several new articles of furniture placed in the room which was assigned to him. But when he was introduced to the work rooms and found one hundred and fifty girls, many of them young and beautiful, busily employed, and .was informed that he would be required to supply , them with designs and show the young ladies how they were to be carried out, the young . artist began to feel as if he should hav e to be carried out himself being very susceptible .' "Working for a living," said1 he to : himself, is not altogether devoid of attractions.' Let us work." M. Robert , being an accomplished artist, delighted his employer, and he soon found , a remarkable fascination in seeing his designs realized in steel, silver, enamel or wood. He took a pleasure hitherto unknown in seeing his works in shop windows and finding them in the boudoirs of his friends. This work-shop' life was of course carefully concealed from "society," nor did his employer suspect that the arti9t was his landlord. But M. Robert soon found a more intense object of fascination in the daughter of Mr. B., a young lady who also took part in the duties of atelier. This damsel was as remarkable for her accomplishments as for her extraordinary beauty, and M. Robert soon found that as regarded taste and culture in all matters which, specially interested him he had never met any one like her. Step by step, the pair fell in love, and little by little the artist so ingratiated himself with the father that the latter, after dud deliberation, consented to their union. i ' Previous to the marriage the old gentleman one day 'spoke of a dowry. shall gWe Marie fifty thousand francs," said be, with a little air of boasting. ?Eh, mon garron?" "And I suppose," added M. Robert, gravely, "that I, too, must settle something on my .wife. Well I will." This caused a peal of laughter, which was redoubled when the artist added: "And I will settle this piece of property, house and all, with the . buildings adjoining, on her." , . ' But what was their amazement when M. Robert drew forth the title deeds, and said: ;; ' : - r "You seem to forget that I am your landlord? Is'nt my nne Robert?" - The young lady did not faint, but papa nearly died of astonishment and joy.' There was a magnificent wedding, but the bridegroom has not given up business. . He declares that there is as much amusement in being useful as in . amusing one's aif.

STATE TICKET. Below wq .publish the campaign sketches of the lives of Conrad Baker, Will. Cumback, Max F. A. Hoffman, J. D. Evans, and Nathan Kimble, Republican candidates on the State Tickety FOR GOVERNOR COLONBL CONBAD BAKER. Colonel Conrad Baker, our nominee for Governor, is the present incumbent of that office, acting in the vacancy occasioned by the election of Governor O. P. Morton to the United States Senate. He was born in Franklin county, Pennsylvania, February 12tb, 1817, in that period succeeding the close 'of the second and last war with Great Britain. He studied law at Gettysburg, and. was admitted to the bar in the spring of 1839, when just past his 22d year. At that time the opponents of the Democratic party were divided into two parties, the Whigs and Anti-masons. . Mr. Baker attaching himself to the . former, preferring to base his political affiliation upon the score of principle rather than upon the intense excitement caused by the Morgan affair, based upon nothing but personal and private rancor. Mr. Baker was a supporter of Henry Clay, and was chosen as a Whig delegate from Adams county to the Whig State Convention, which was held at Chambersburg in the summer of 1839," where resolutions were passed favoring Mr. Clay for the . Presidency. Mr. Baker practiced law in Gettysburg two years, and in 1841 removed to Evansville, in this State, of which city he remaind a citizen until his official duties required his removal to the capitol. - i . I In the year .1845, .he was elected a member of the House of Representatives from Indiana, from the county of Vanderburg, serving his constituents and the whole State faithfully for one session. ,In 1852, he was elected Common Pleas Judge, but resigned after serving one year. At. the first State Convention held under the party organization known as the Republican. Mr. Baker was selected as the candidate for Lieutenant Governor, with Oliver P. Morton as the standard-lyearer of the new and untried party which dared to enter the political arena, and upon the question of principle to fight the wellorganized and thoroughly drilled Democracy. The gallant fight made by the Republicans in 1856 is well known, but ' its young hosts were not quite enough, and Mr. Baker was defeated by his opponent, Abram A. Hammond. Four years of experience on the one hand, and four of quasi treason on the other, served to place the party with which Mr. Baker was identified, in power; succeeding which, the - rebellion in the South was commenced . in the interests' of the defeated Democracy. ' Among the foremost in civil life, the first call to arms found Mr. Baker ready for whatever duty, was assigned him He entered the military service in July, 1861, and remained until the end of service, being mustered out in September, 1864. He was in the field from August, 1861, to April, 1863, at which date he was ordered by the War Department to report for duty at Indianapolis, to organize the Provost Marshal General's Bureau for the State, from May 1, 1863, to Augnst 20, 1864, just preceding his muster out. Colonel Baker was selected as the Republican candidate for Lieutenant Governor in 1864, after General Kimball had declined the position to which he was nominated by the Convention. He i entered into the canvass with ardor, and after eight years of most eventful peace and still more eventiul war, the whirlgig of time saw the defeated ticket in 1856 Morton and Baker triumphantly elected by a majority of over twenty thousand of the popular votes. Of Colonel Baker's military career it is not necessary to speak. The , brief mention made calls to mind the glories and disasters, the successes and the defeats, of, the first three years of the re bellion. .In common with hundreds of thousands of names, Baker's stands in that honored scroll of national defenders, while his opponent, Thomas A. Hendricks, was in the United States Senate, , with his arms , folded, doing nothing for or nothing against his country, in the hour of its most deadly need. : Colonel Baker's political record is briefly this: He voted for Gen. Harrison in 1840. He voted for Henry Clay in 1844. " He voted for Zachary Taylor in 1848. He voted for General Scott in 1852. He voted for Jno. C. Fremont in 1856. He voted for Abraham Lincoln in 1860 and 1864. , To Governor Baker is -conceded high talents as a lawyer and an executive ; strict integrity of purpose and unsullied personal and official honor ; his party enemies respect him, and treat his words and acts with no slight or contumely. He is known all over the State as a gentleman of unblemished moral character,

while his administration of the affairs of the Executive Department, as Lieutenant Governor, has, been . conceded to be eminently satisfactory. v . FOR LIEUTE2TANT GOVERNOR HON. WILL . CUMBACK. ): Hon. Will Cumback is a native of Indiana. He was born in Franklin county, March 24, 1829. His, father was a farmer, and young Cumback worked on the farm . until seventeen years of, age going to the common school about three months in the year. Having acquired what instruction he could in the common school, he determined to go to college, and having no money, and his father being unable to keep him, he . rented . two fields of ground and raised a crop of oats, hauled the oats to . Cincinnati in a wagon, and sold them for fifteen . cents a bushel. After all expenses and purchasing his outfit for college, he had but 814 75, and upon that sum he went three months to college, ringing the college bell to pay for his tuition, firewood and room rent, and cooking his own victuals in his room. He stood at the head of his class, and had more friends than any boy in college. When his means were exhausted be taught school awhile, got a little money, and returned to college again, but finding this process too slow for his impulsive nature, he commenced the study of law while teaching school, and was soon admitted to the bar, and after attending a course of law lectures in Cincinnati, he commenced the practice of law in Greensburg, Indiana. As a lawyer he has never been known to advise any. body to go to law except in self-defense, and has always refused to be employed in any case where it was the purpose to practice a wrong. on the other. party. Add to this his well known character for truth and honesty, and his ability as an advocate, as might be expected, he is very successful in his business, and has a rapidly increasing practice. In 1854 Mr. Cumback was unanimously nominated for Congress by his party friends in his large district, and although but twenty-five years of age, he met on the stump an experienced and able politician of the opposition, and astonished both his euemies and .friends with his ability as a stump orator. He was a member of the Thirty-fourth Congress, and although the youngest member in the House, he soon took high rank as an able debater. His first effort was on the resolution to investigate the frauds in the elections in Kansas, and Horace Greeley, who was then reporter for the New York Tribune, spoke more, highly of bis effort than any other speech made on the question. His speech was widely circulated through the. leading journals of the country. ; ,. !;: . ; ;, In 1860 he accepted the position. of Elector for the State at large, and spent the summer in that memorable canvass in Indiana, and by the force of his eloquence contributed a full , share to the success of his party. . He bad the honor, being the first on the Electoral ticket, to cast the first Electoral : vote of his State against that "sum of all villainies," the institution of slavery, of which he was always a most earnest and sincere opponent. . At the breaking out of the rebellion he enlisted as a private soldier, and soon after was appointed "a Paymaster in the army, and was appointed to the charge of a large district, and had a laige number of officers to report to him for duty. He had the confidence of all the officers and men in his depart ment. And the trooDS in his denart. a A ment were more promptly paid than in any other district in the country, and when the Government did not send funds fast enough to meet the demands of the soldiers, he would borrow money on his own responsibility, and his word was often taken for a quarter of a million of dollars at the bank, with no security whatever. He" received and disbursed while in the service sixty millions of dollars, and so honestly and accurately had he kept his accounts that when he asked to be mustered out he was enabled to settle bU accounts and -balance his books in three days, which was a matter of astonishment to the devotees of red tape at Washington. Two years ago he was, without his knowledge, nominated by a large convention of his neighbors to represent his county in the State Senate. ' He was elected, and took liis seat in the Leo-is-lature for the first time in his life. Soon after the commencement of the session he was chosen President of the Senate, and his ability and impartiality were freely acknowledged by both political friends and opponents. Mr. Cumback's frank, genial ' and hopeful manner, combined with his. acknowledged ability, ; always inspires confidence among his friends, and constitute him an admirable leader of public affairs. FOR SECRETARY OF STATS MAJOR MAX. , . F. A.' HOFFMAN. . Dr. Hoffman was born at Jena, Grand

AND TRUTH'S!"

iPBIIi 18G8. Duchy of Saxe Wimear, Eisenach, Germany, on the 31st of December, 1832. His father was Professor of Theology and Oriental Languages at the University, and gave his three sons, of whom the subject of our sketch is the 3roungest the advantages of an early and thorough education. After having attained his fourteenth year, the Doctor was sent to Eisenach to attend the Gymnasium, -one of the very best in the country."- He finished there his classical and philosophical studies, graduated and returned to Jena, where he commenced his medical studies. Alter two years study there he visited the Universities of VVurzburg and Erlangen, at which places he acquired the degree of Doctor of Medicine. Afterwards the Doctor spent one year, in visiting the Medical Faculties at Vienna and Prague, anil after his. return home was one of the Assistants at the Hospital of his native country.' ; In 1856, the Doctor emigrated to the United States, arriving just . in time to witness the memorable Presidential campaign of that year. Having been a republican in Europe, his sympathies were naturally with the great Republican party of this country, and he has worked with zeal for the success of his party ever since. . In 1860, after having lived most of the preceding time at Chicago, the Doctor removed to Valparaiso, Indiana, where he remained until he was commissioned as one of the Assistant Surgeons of the Ninth Indiana Volunteers, in whicn capacity he served until April 1866, when the regiment was sent home from North Carolina, to be mustered out of service. ; After his return home, the Doctor settled at Logansport, Indiana, where he haa been engaged in the practice of his profession. FOR AUDITOR OF 8TATKEVAN3. -MAJOR J. D. Major John D. Evans our candidate for Auditor of State, is a Kentuckian by birth, though that happened at such an early period in his life that he has no distinct recollection of the event, and would feel just as well over the matter if he had been born in some other place. At the .commencement of the war he was in a flourishing mercantile trade in Noblesville. Up to that time he had been identified with the Democratic party. When the first call was made for troops by the President he closed his store and raised the first company that was accepted from Indiana in the three months service, of which he was made Captain. After the brief term- of service had expired, he took an active part in raising the Thirty-ninth Indiana Regiment, and : was made Major of the same in which capacity he continued during his term of service; and his name is intimately connected with all the tti rilling history of that famous old regiment which is too familiar to all our people to need rehearsing now. He was never a candidate for any office before, but his education, which was finished at Yel low Springs, Ohio, and his fine business talents eminently fit him for the duties of Auditor of State. He is thirty-three years o: age am will make himself known to the whole State during the pending campaign. FOR TREASURER of STATE GENERAL NATHAN KIMBALL General Nathan Kimball was born at Fredericksburg, Washington county, Indiana, on the 22d of November, 1862. His father Nathaniel Kimball, located "in Jefferson ville, in 1816. His mother was the daughter of James Ferguson, who settled in Indiana Territory in 1796, and was one ol the first of the hardy band of pioneers to clear the way thro' Indian warfare and open up' the wilderness for future settlement. His ancestry was identified with the earliest history of the West, one of them being that old and successful soldier, General George Rogers Clark. He was left an orphan at the age of six. , Reverses in business had previously swept away his father's estate, and all young Nathan had left him for an heritage was an honorable name. Cared for, however, by his relatives, he was sent to school, and at the age of ten became. a pupil of Hon. John I. Morrieon, late Treasurer of State, then Prin- j cipal of the Washington County Seminary, remaining under his tutelage four years. ,ia led'J lie became a student in the Indiana Asburv University, at Greencastle, for a short time, but was compelled for want of means, to leave his studies and earn his bread by the sweat of his brow. In 1842 he taught school in Westport, Missouri, then a frontier town. In the struggles of his earlier years was developed the firmness, self-reliance and . integrity of his nature. He returned to his native State, and taught school, studied medicine, and became one of the most successful and esteemed

practitioners in Southern Indiana. In . 1840 be cast his first vote, for Henry, Clay.'" ; 1-s ' - When the war with Mexico was declared, he raised a company and was elected Captain, and left for the seat of war on the 13th of July, 1846. - In the battle of Bucna Vista; he distinguished himself for intrepidity and courage.. Soon after the. close of, the war. his. friends brought him out as Whig candidate for the State Senate in Washington county, where his party were hopelessly in the minority, : and of course he did not succeed. He was on the electoral ticket for General Scott, and canvassed the Second DUtrirct - with his opponent. In 1856 he was for Fillmore, and in I8601 he supported Bell and Everett, on the platform of 'tbe Union, the Constitution, aud the Laws,"' in the hope that their success would harmonize the conflicting elements and prevent secession. Immediately upon the fall of Fort, Sumter he raised a company for the war, was elected Captain on the 23d of April, 1861, was commissioned Colonel of the Fourteenth Regiment Indiana Volun teers, while in camp of Instruction at Terre Haute, and joined General McClellan at Rich Mountain, West Virginia. After an arduous winter campaign in the mountains, he was attached to Shields s division at Winchester. Shields having . been wounded, the com-, mand devolved on Kimball, who won a' most signal victory over "Stonewall" Jackson. In January, 1862, he was with McClellan before Richmond. In the great battle of Antietam he especialay distinguished himself, successfully holding an important position against most obstinate assaults. ' The ditch, since so celbrated for the number of rebel dead found in it, was immediately in Kimball's front. In the battle of Fredericksburg, Decern ber 12, 1862 he was severely wounded in the thigh by a canister shot. In three months afterwards ho was with Grant at Vicksburg. In Arkansas he superintended the carrying out of the reconstruction policy of President Lincoln, and was complimented by a passage of a Legislated resolution of commendation. He was with Sherman in his grand campaign against Atlanta, was in the thickest of the fight in the battles of. Kenesaw ; Mountain and . Peach Tree Creek, fought with terrible effect at Franklin, and for bravery in - the battle of Nashville was made a Major General. From the beginning to the close of the war he possessed the confidence of his superiors and the love of his men. " Or-' dered to Texas, he was finally, in September, 1865,. mustered out of the serT , vice ( in that "State on account of the close of the war. ;? .;, ...... " While in Arkansas he was nominated by the Republican Convention of Indiana for Lieutenant Governor, but declined, preferring to give his services to his count ry in the field until the rebellion should be crushed. In February, 1866, ho received the Republican nomination for Treasurer of State, and after a brilliant canvass, in which he was one of the most effective and eloquent speakers in the field, be was triumphantly elected. He has discharged the duties of his trust with the same integrity jnd ability that has heretofore characterized his public and private life. The people of Indiana have his past untarnished record as his guarantee that he will in future, as heretofore, discharge the duties incumbent upon him in a manner at once creditable to himself, and beneficial in the highest degree to the honor and prosperity of the State. During a storm at New Harmony last week, a Mrs. Pearl who at the time was in an out building on her premises, was struck by lightning the electricity completely melting some of the wires of her hoop skirt . and burning her body in a very serious manuer. It is a source of speculation whether her hoops were not the means of saving her life; on the other hand, however, it is questionable if the fluid had been attracted from the course first taken to her, had it not been for the close proximity of that article of wearing apparel. Mrs. Pearl is at present in a very critical condition. Steel and gilt ornaments are the fashion for ladies just now. The united ages of 30 persons in oomers, uonn., is z,4U years.

" WHAT HE HAD BETTER DO. We do not much relish the hints .and threats which are every now and then '. thrown out of what the President will do should the Senate find " him' guilty. " We are anxious that be should have the fairest possible of trials; but why should he attempt, to intimidate his judges by intimations of an extra judicial appeal? Thus a rumor reaches us that after oon- . viction and eviction, Mr. Johnson, in the character of martyr, will make a pil- ' grimage through the length and breadth ' of the land detailing his distresses and " setting forth his sorrows, vindicating ; his . administration and pleading., his case generally in the r forum of the people. Unless it bo that one hates to see the dignit- of human nature thus scandalously lowered, we -do not know, that there would be any "objection' to this course. Even the objects '"of ' hempen expiation are permitted,' and," indeed, ' encouraged to make speeches; we know very well that there is always a popular desire to see these offenders in the ceil or upon the scaffold; and we suppose that the number of amateurs in physiognomy that would like to ' stare at Mr. Johnson is considerable? Upon5 the other hand, after his reduction to the ranks, should such a change occur, he would as a private" citizen be obliged to pay bis own bills; for, although he ' would now and then receive the gift of a hat, or a cheese, cr something of that kind by way of advertisement, the bulk of the disbursements ?, would fall upon . his personal shoulders. We think it would be more economical if His Excellency would start at once upon this prbjected pilgrimage; for now he is nominally President, and the distillers, and postmasters, and collectors wonld sure-i(!, ly come oat to meet him at the gates of their respective places of abode. He might then freshly comment in New -York, or Boston, or Chicago upon the deliberations of the Senate in Washington, and rehearse to sympathetic crowds the latest mournful intelligence forwarded to him by telegraph. In this way he might be his own Manr Antony; display his own wounds and exhibit his own bloody garments; and while with t passionate vehemence he denounced the conspirators, he could hardly fail to incite a certain degree of compassion. This wonld be far more sagacious than . to - go before the people in -the character of an official ghostand far more ef-"' s fective than tattling his defense in drib- . , , lets to newspaper correspondents.

THOS. D'ARCV M'GEE. . r. D'Arcy MeGee, who was assassinated Fr at Ottawa, Canada, Tuesday, morning, -came to thia country in the character of an Irish patriot, and was' cotemporane- ! 1 ous with Gavan Duffy,: Meagher, John Mitchel,, and the7 rest of those who, twenty years ago, or thereabouts, formed ' the leading active" element of the young ! :. Irish party. He was born at Carlingford,Treland, in 1825.' His father wasva a Custom House officer in Ireland: : In 1843 the deceased came to the United States, and was connected for some time with the Boston press; but he returned to Ireland and joined the staff of the Nation newspaper in Dublin. In 1849 he became implicated in political movements, and returning to the United States, established a paper which he also called the Nation. He went to Can- .. ada after a few years; became a warm supporter of the British party; turned against his own revolutionary countrymen, and was rewarded with office and a place in the Ministry. He has recently been out of office; but his course on tne Peman question made him enemies among his own people. many, A correspondent, who has been reading Mr. Greely's history has discovered the following paragraph in a. speech of Hon. A- H. Stephens, made November 8th, 1860, he thinks the present is a : good time to quote it : . - I "The President of the United States is no Emperor no dictator; he is clothed with no absolute power. He can do nothing unless he is backed by pow- ; er in Congress. - "Mr. Lincoln cannot appoint an offli cer without the consent of the , Senate; , he cannot form a . Cabinet without the . same consent. He will be in ' the con- : I dition of George the III. who had to ask j the Whigs to appoint his minister, and was compelled to receive a Cabinet uttEicij vnjocu iu uis views.
