AGITATE.

The meeting of the friends of woman suffrage, which was held at the 'i'erre Haute House on Tuesday oyening last, proved conclusively that tbo movement commands a large degree of pop ular favor and support. As the initia torystep that meeting is certainly to be regarded as an entiresuccess. First, there was a largo and prompt attendance second, little talk and third, emphatic and unmistakeable action. The people who attended the meeting of Tuesday evening did so from the conviction that its object was right and good—an object to be worked for and carried forward to success. They are poople who have thought of the subject and are persuaded in their own minds of the justice and desirableness of tho movement and are not afraid to put themselves down as its supporters and defenders.

We like tho prompt and businesslike manner in whick the organization was effected. It showed that not effect, but result was the real object—not honor, but work.

And work will be needed. We caution these leaders of the woman's cause alike against boing too sanguine of immediate success, or too easily depressed by unexpected discouragements. There never was a truth promulgated in the world but it required many a hard-fought battle. Mohammed took the sword when he was discouraged with the poor results of his tongue, and every new idea which is to win its way to popular acceptance must gird on.the sword and summon

champions to battle, yf Nothing succeeds like success, it is said and nothing progresses like progress, The truth is aggressive. It pushes on from out-post to out-post, from victory to victory. It cannot maintain its old ground it it becomes too indolent or too feeble to occupy new. We say, therefore, that those who have instituted the woman suffrage movement in an organized shape in the community, most do something more than merely maintain the organization. They must work earnestly, cheerfttlly, confidently.

As was suggested at the meeting, the very fact of there being no apparent opposition to the cause, may have a tendency to blunt the ardor of its supporters. Resistance stimulates activipassive acceptance is the deathblow to energy. There is a large amount of material at band for the woman suffragists to work on. You will lind very few peoplo who actively oppose the measure but you will find many who are non-committal on it. They say they don't care much it It succeeds, as little if it fails, and not enough about it to take any active part oge way or the other. These people must bo brought to terms. They are worse than the worst enemies ot the measure. Fight would fire, but this cold passlveism chills and benumbs. Before reform can succoed, every one must fight either for or against it. Then comes the drawn battle and ultimate victory. But there can be no battle if men will not fight. What the woman suffragist® noed moat Is a contest a fair, square, open, honest fight. They have been laughed-at and elbowedaaide long enough. They have been told that they are too small to strike but a good many poople know well enough that nothing will make them grow so fast as striking them. "Come on with your

swords

givo us battle,"

should be the cry of the friends of the movement. Fight with us or against us. Don't be too cowardly to fight at all.

When an opposition Is worked tip, the cause wiU have an opportunity to ahow what mettle it is made of. When some one* wiU say that it is wrong it will have a chance to prove that it Is right* Meantime, agitation, even though it. bccome monotonous, must be the watchword.

HBSRT WAR© BXBCHKR lectured in Boston, a flaw nights since, on '*Compulsory Education,*' taking the ground that Ignorance is a crime that the State owe* it to itself that all its children be Instructed at least in the rudimentary principles of reading, writing and arithmetic, and that the public weltkn required every man's child to be educated to this extent either at his own or the State's expense.

TURKEY.

Turkey in Asia and rurkey in Europe may be very well in their way, but Turkey in America is emphatically the right bird in the right place, or rather, it may better be said of him in these alimentary times of Thanksgiving, that he is the right bird in a tight placo. As it would be simply impossible to imagine a Thanksgiving without turkey, so, by logical sequence, it follows that if America had not been discovered there would nave been no Thanksgiving Day, seeing that the custom is one peculiar to the trans-Atlantic races, and not likely even to have originated among the aboriginal red-skins.

The turkqy is absolutely and essen tially an American bird. He has good ground for action at law against the parties who first gave him thc^rldlcu lous name by which he is known by all who (Slaim the English language for their own. It happened long, long ago, that one of the original white explorers of the forests of the Susquehanna trapped a pair of splendid fowls, the like of which he nover had before seen. His mates and he had been on short allow ance for a week, and, the game being rell?f to them, they mads short work of roasting it over a wood fire on a revolving spit, to the handle of which they went in turn. Just about that time nick-nacks of all sorts used to be imported into England from Turkey. Out oi this arose a peculiar expression, and it became quite the fashion to say ot everything that was nice, or curious, or costly, that it was

The French have abetter name than turkey for our adorable bird. They call him "Ooq d'Inde," which may be translated by "Indian rooster." That is more to our purpose than turkey for it may be assumed without extravagance that the tooth of red Indian had become acquainted with the drumstick of turkey ages before the white man had ever licked his whiskered chops over it. In the modern Latin of the naturalists our bird is called JUeleagris Oallopavi, which has a very mellifluous roll, and fills the mouth like a slice from the breast of a twelve-pounder, supplemented with no end of stuffing and cranberry sauce. The name is far too long, though, and quite unsuited to the nervous action and rapid mode of thought peculiar to the American people. Turkey still be turkey, then, for us and a bumpeT to the memory of the noble trapper who first spitted him, and then immortalized him vrith the name!

4,turky."

And

so, says one of our bold British explorers to the rest of the company, as they squatted round the catnp-fire and dissected with their jack-knives the succulent limbs of the gigantio fowls, "Bless my eyes and limbs, now, and thanks to Providence for sending unto us such'turky' birds!" Here, It will be seen, wo have tho first thanksgiving in connection with the first turkey for the name was adopted on the spot by the first white captors of these distinguished fowls who took many specimens of them over trhen they returned to England, where John Bull adopted the strange fowl for his Christmas bird, and spelt it illiterately with a superfluous "e."

This is the truo origin of turkey, and all other stories that are told about the matter are spurious. In no part of the world, save upon this great continent and the islands that unto it adjacent lie, is there such a thing as an aboriginal turkey to be seen. Europe has bustards, which bear some faint resemblance to the turkey of our affections, butj-hey are no more turkeys thanks the turkey-buzzard.

responsible position of first assistant to boss .bricklayer.—[Express,

We haven't the pleasure of an acquaintance with "Bates' brother," but it is a pleasure to say that he is engaged In a much more laudable occupation than his fool brother, the Sergeant, who earns a frugal living by carrying the American flag through peaceful rural neighborhoods. His feat of carrying it through the Southern States will be remembered. An Illinois man is said to have made a bet with Bates that bo could not carry the American colors from4he Scottish border to London without being insulted. Tho desperate man is now marching, by easy stages, unmolested, his short pole having a minature flag at the top and a fool at the bottom. No Englishman has sufficient respect for the Uniled States to ambuscade him and put a period to his promenade. .»

THB New York Tribune is a persist

ent

foe to capital punishment—until there is a sensational murder in its own neighborhood, and then it shrieks "Hang him!" with all its might. It now insists, in view of tho Pine street homicide, where a man was shot for giving evidence in a divorce suit, "that while hanging is the penalty for murder, murderers should be hung. When blood is not avenged at all, we are very near social disorganisation." If "consistency is a jewel" the Tribune is not rich in that kind of Jewelry.

CONCERNING OLD CLOTHES. The Express, a few days since made a timely suggestion that "it would be a good idea to have a general gathering up of cast off clothlog, fit for further wear, to be distributed to the needy." We second the suggestion, and know that the Ladies' Aid Sooiety will be thankful for such contributions, and will find many, many places where these at present useless at tides will be of great service.

Let housekeepers, especially those in comfortable or wealthy circumstances go through th6ir closets, old ohests and attic rooms, and they will be astonished at the quantity of, to them worse than useless articles,—clothing of all kinds, articles ot apparel for men, wo men and children, bonnets of all dates, hats of all styles, boots and shoes of all shapes—will be found and brought to light and made serviceable. The de mands of the soldier used to draw heavily from these closets, but now they are far from empty, and it is only by some stirring appeal that these cast off garments are brought to light, and the dust and moths which are consuming them are disturbed.

In some families this desire to hoard up not only clothes but other worn out articles and old things amounts to almost a mania. Broken chairs, dislooated clocks, fractured ornaments, greasy coats, dilapidated boots, old school books, bits of dishes, broken lamps, &c.t

OUR WEEKLY NEWSPAPERS. The Weekly newspaper, says an exchange, is the World's Grand Hotel. Into it every week flock guests from every nation under heaven. It is full of art, wisdom, story, poetry, romance, incident and anecdote, such as never came together in any old tavern, even when Burns and his fellows were met or when Burke,

Johnson, Steele and Ad

dison exchanged intellectual wares. To know the genuine relish of a good newspaper, one must not read the dailies nor live amidst such company in olties. It is in the country and apart from much social intercourse that one's appetite grows sharp. The paper is seized with avidity from the office, is borne home as a treasure, is (here carefully read as one woald read the terms of a bequest or will that left him a treasure. Every man has some favorite part of a fowl or flesh, and so every habitual reader turns at once to some favorite pari of his newspaper for the first taste then to the next best, and gradually every paragraph passes under review and at last the very advertisements are conned. Then, on the eve of a new newspaper, the benevolent subscriber lends his paper to a poor neighbor and it begins another round of pleasure. The newspaper is to these moral exiles a vision of the world—a window through which comes to them the whole course of time.

BOSTON gives us another example of what the public in general has nover, we think, fully appieclated—namely, the generosity of theatre managers and actors. In every great public calamity these people are the first to step forward and offer aid. All the theatres of Boston have announced benefits for the sufferers. They did the same hf Chicacago, and time and time again before evincod the same philanthropic spirit. We appear to have become so accustomed to this thing that we expect it, and look upon it simply as a matter of duty on the part of managers and actors. On the contrary, it is no more their duty to^give their services and their time gratuitously than it is for the merchant to set aside one day's receipts or profits for a similar purpose. Indeed, considering how society in the main treats the player, it is rather astonishing that he should show such a Christain spirit and return good for evil. When a merchant prince from his hoard of gold throws a little to the needy, his praises are in the months of all bat when the poor actor gives all that he can, his ability, we take little notice, and scarcely record the Atct in the

HORACE GREELEY DEAD A great man has fallen. Horace Greeley was a great man., For thirty years he has woilded a great influence for good or bad—mostly for good. His bitterest enemy will not deny that Horace Greeley always aimed to do right. The world "is wiser and bettor that be has lived. He has had some absurd notions, he has made mistakes. What active man in this world has not? The man who walks upright through life, never stumbles, and escapes the envy and calumny of his fellow men is of no account, and is not likely to leave anything behind him for history, or for his children or his friends to admire. He died a "harmless, inoffensive man" is an empty epitaph.

Mr. Greeley died last evening at fifty minutes past six o'clock. His first illness was caused by severe nervous prostration, and littl# alarm was felt but the disease turned to acute luflamation of the brain, and he sank rabidly.

There can be no doubt that if Horace Greeley had not been nominated at Cincinnati for Presideut, he would now occupy his editorial chair in the Tribune, wfcere he was "the noblest Roman of them all." A lofty ambition has been wreckod, and through the tenderness of his heart, Horace Greeley has been wounded to death

The

are saved and treasur

ed up. Some people have a regard for these articles, and cannot bear to part with them, while others do not stop to think of the worse than useless rubbish which is accumulating over their heads. There is also in every street at least one Mrs. Toodles, who is haunted with the idea that some time or another everything stored away will come 'bandy to have in the house,' and these good bodies visit their repositories of useful articles once or twice a year, perhaps, but almost invariably they add a broken or mutilated article—rarely, if ever, finding anything which can be used. The spirit of hoarding, however, is not lessened, and it is not, perhaps, until afire or a removal thaU they realize what an amount of truck they have boon accumulating. Very recently a gentleman after living in one house nearly thirty years, removed to his 'new house,' and among other articles which he found stored away was a pair of low cut slippers which he wore on bis bridal night. Ho made a calculation, and found that had he spld them when he had done with them, and put his money at interest, he would have had more than enough to-day to procure a handsome entire suit of clothes at even the present high prices."

AMUSEMENTS.

MRS. D. P. BOWERS

Has come and gone this week, leaving the most pleasing memories, and a wish lor an early return. The impression with some people that the tasto for the legitimate drama has departed, has been shown to be erroneous by the fine audiences assembled at the Opera House on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. Mrs. Bowers is a fine actress, a great actress. Her t'Lady Audley," "Elizabeth," and "Mary 8tuart" are perfect masterpieces, and the alternations of coquetry tind Jealousy, hatred and ambition, anger and love, afford her opportunity of displaying the various lights and shades of feminine vanities, passions and weaknesses in such a manner as to stamp her a very superior artiste. Mr. McCollom la an actor of much ability, possessing a fine physique, and he is a magnificent dresser. The other members form altogether a well balanced, meritorious organization, and their roturn at any time will be hailed with delight.

*NXB I.IXOARDS.

X-

No comedian upon the Amorican stage is so amusingly droll and innocently funny as Horace Lingard. Ho convulses his audiences by a look, and when he laughs the spectators lose entirely control of themselves. "Life.'s Dream," his new comedy, which will be presented to-night, Is a disconnected, languishing sort of piece, yet abounding in intensely comioal and pathetic passages, at times stooping to the lowest phase of farce, and at othcra rising to the height of emotional power. But his forte lies in his "sketclu-s," in which the most prominent of our politicians are vividly portrayed. Of tho remninder of the company, tho Baltimore Bulletin says: "Mrs. Lingard—Alice Dunning that was—shines in all her radiant beauty, and Miss Dickie Lingard is unquestionably pretty and bright. One distinctive feature of this company is the general efficiency of rendition ot the minor characters." The Lingard's give but one entertainment, at the 4 Opera House, on this Saturday evening. The sale of seats now progressing« at theCentral Bookstore indicate a very large audience.

THB STRAKOSCH CONCERT.

Is the coming event in the amusement line, and the event of next week. An announcement elsewhere gives tho names of the artistes composing this aggregation,. prominent among whom stand Carlotta Pitti and Signor Mario.

Catlotta Patti, the Queen of Song, has for years shared with her more brilliant sister the wealth of favor bestowed by musical critics in Europe. She is gifted with the enviable quailties of youth, beauty and genius, and wherever these are recognized she has inspired admiration aud almost worshipful regard.

Mario, the celebrated tenor, has for more than thirty years sounded his musieal notes. He is now taking his farewell from the lyrio stage. He has so long been in publio favor, that wherever he goes he receives grateful endorsement from old friends and lovers of music.

Miss Anna Louise Cary, who was received with so much favor when here withNllsson, with her powerful and,/ sweet contralto, will be greeted with pleasure in this distinguished trio of vocalists.

The violin performances of Mons. Sauret are described by an English critic "as suggustive only of Paganlnl." Mdlle. Teresa Carreno, who, years »go, was a general favorite in New York City, returns to this country with a most enviable reputation acquired abroad.?''

The sale of seats will commence at Bartlett A Oo's Central Bookstore, on Tuesday morning next.

THERE is mourning in the land today. It is mostly in the Turkey family. Thousands of them have been cut off In their prime—butchered to make a thanksgiving holiday. They have not only cut off the head of the family, but in many Instances bave obliterated the family itself. Gobblers have been ruthlessly gobbled up in all the pride m: and pomp of their glorious turkeybood. The survivors are sad and de- ,. spondent to-day. They miss their relatives and lrlends. The roosts that once knew them well know them no more forever. Why they are spared they know not, unless It Is for the coming Christinas or New Year's. Some of them, by reason of strength of years and toughness, may survive until aniSi other Thanksgiving, but hardly longer than that. Turkeys have died and men have eaten them and such will continue to be the case, no doubt, so long aa Thanksgiving or an appreciative appetite shalljmdurei_____

ADVKRTisrwo.—The object in adverUsing is to Increase business. An ad- $ vertisement properly inserted in a newspaper is more effectual than any other method, because it is read when a reader is in a mood for it. No one will take the time to read an advertisement unless he has a passive inclinatlon to do so. The great advantage of •a newspaper advertisement is shown y, in this manner In printed advertising, all transient methods, as circulars, and the like, are thrust upon us unsought—scarcely glanced at—flung into the waste-basket, and wholly forgotten*, At some subsequent time we are in need of the very article the circular rep repented, but we cannot recall tbo merits, terms, or address. Naturally we eeek the newspaper—and then is the »v specific time the advertisement that regularly appears in the newspaper wins.
