Gov WASHBURH, of Massachusetts, thinks women should be allowed to vote on prohibition, but on that only. It would be unnecessary to count the ballot. On any question touching the liquor traffic, the feminine census could be counted "no."

THE New York Evening Mail is a non-political journal, yet it feels called upon to say: "When seats in the Senate can be sold to the highest bidder and retained we might as well acknowledge that corruption has accomplished what armed treason failed to do—the ruin ol the Republic.

THE Credit Mobilier investigation drags its slow length along, and the promise ol a few days ago that it would be pushed

speedy

conclusion is not

in a fair way of being realized. It Is Baid that a report need not be looked for before the first of March. In the meantime, an agreeable surprise has so lar been developed, that we have something like half adozen tolerably honest men in Congress.

THE New York Times, in a late issae, devotes a long editorial to discussing the manifest merits ol a regulation lately carried into effect at Sterling, Illinois, which requires that no saloon shall place screens at its front doors or windows, thus enabling passers by to know exactly who Irequentsuch places. The Times thinks other towns and cities would find it ndvantageous to the canon

temperance to adopt the ordi

nance of Sterling in this respect.

WILL in® French government never quench its thirst for blood? The plain of Sartory, the now famous—or infamous—field of blood, was the scene of a triple execution this week. Feronilly, De Camp and Benot, condemned Communists, were shot early Tuesday morning. Feronilly died without uttering a word. De Camp's last words were, "I die assassinated down with falso witnesses, lawyers and thieves!'' Benot died cheering the republic, the Commune and the army. Only one volley was fired, as all died instantly.

ONE of the delusions ot the time is to suppose that the past agos were in any respect better or superior to the present, and it is a pleasure to note occasionally a champion arise in behalf of the much scandalized age in which it is our privilege to live. Such is James Parton, aB we see by the reports of his lecture entitled "A Century Ago." He cites irrefutable facts to prove that morally, religiously, intellectually, politically and in almost every other respect, human society is vastly better to-day than it has been at any former era in Fhe history ot the world. This is no doubt true, the shallow croakers who fill the air with waitings and lamentations over "these degenerated times" to the contrary notwithstanding No careful or thoughtful student of the history of the past, who is also a close observer of the spirit and events of the present, can doubt that the age in which we live is a wonderful one lor its progresaiveness, its genius, its arts and sciences, its liberal!cation, its morality, its popular intelligence, and its vital energy—in all of which, in the aggregate it is incomparably in advance of its most brilliant predecessors, near or remote.

SENA TO RIAL CORR UPTION. We have certainly fallen npon evil timea, or else there is more than usual determination to uncover rascallity in high places. What with the Credit Mobilier revelations and the recent Senatorial elections in Kansas and Missouri, the people are opening their eyes to the alarming amount of corruption hanging to the skirts of men selected to control and direct the destinies of the nation. Cel. Bogy had hardly been elected to the Senate of the United States, by the Legislature of Missouri, before that body appointed a committee to investigate the cause of that political phenomenon. It is expected that in Misaonti the whitewash brush will be freely used, but oat In Kansas the people are thoroughly In earnest about Senatorial reform. And no wonder. That State has always been unfortunate in its representation in the upper house of Congress. Jim Lane was a ootoriona ruffian, and Senator Pomeroy has the reputation of being very corrupt. Ex-Senator Ross Ml Washington In disgrace, and Senator Caldwell bought his way into the Senate. His chief opponent failed because his money gave out. Kansas was admitted in 1859, and it there is an honeet maa in the State, it la entitled to at least one creditable representative in the Senate. The people of Indiana have cause for congratulation that the Senatorship of this State has never teen made a matter of bargain and sale.

MANUFACTURES.

It is with pleasure we note that eur people have another epaamodle attack on the question of manufactures. Whether anything will be accomplished or not is yet to be determined. One thing, however, is certain, if Terre Haute expects to attain ftiture growth or attain greater importance as a commercial center, which nature evidently deaigned that she should, it must become a manufacturing city. Our people are teo prone to drift into banking and merchandise—honorable callings and profitable, too, where they are not overdone, but producing nothing. What we need is production. As it is, everything hinges on the agricultural interest, which is the great producer, and all our merchants and bankers expect to live by handling the agricultural products. This is all well enough so long as the equilibrium between town and country is maintained but at present the city is ahead of the oountry,and must become a producer, if it wants to grow independent of the de velopment of our agricultural interests

By home manufactures every class of the community is benefitted. With extensive manufactures the agricultural product will be consumed at home. Every farmer can understand that the price of bis products would be less fluctuating than at present, and the sum now expended in transportation to a markot would be saved and divided between the producer and the consumer. With'the successful establishment of manafactures here, the merchants will find their business greatly increased, first in direct population, and therefore of customers next in the increase ol wealth and consequent ability to purchase then in the growth and development ofa thousand other branches of business to which manufactures give life, each adding to population and to trade, and finally in the building up of this city as a great metropolis, to which buyers of manufactured products and sellers of agricultural products will come to trade, and which with increased population and business, will offer improved facilities for all exchanges. The laborer will need clothing as well as meat and flour and will have conveniences and luxuies as well as necessaries.

For the purpose of attracting manufacturers and manufacturing capital it has been suggested, starting with the Express,that the city issue nine per cent, bonds, to the amount of $200,000. The bonds to be sold and the proceeds therefrom loaned on fair mortgage security at six per cent interest, on long time, to parties desiring to establish manufacturing enterprises on condition that the borrowers invest two dollars of their own money to one dollar borrowed from the city fund. The Express makes plain its plan as follows:

The city's total loan of two hundred thousand dollars shall attract not less than four hundred thousand of private capital, making an aggregate of six hundred thousand. The city would pay nine per cent, on its bonds and receive six per cent, for its loans. The apparent loss in this transaction would be six thousand dollars a year. The real loss would be nothing, as the enhanced value ot taxables in the city, caused by the impetus given thus to business, would more than compensate the city for its outlay.

It cannot be denied that there are some objections to this plan, but it should have the careful consideration of all interested in the growth and prosperity ot our city. We believe that the benefits will far over-ride the objections. Capital is coy, but ever on tjie lookout for advantages and inducements. Te develop great manufacturing interests here will take time, and not a day should be lost in considering this entering wedge towards developing the unequalled resources of this great favored portion of the West.

THE newspaper announcement that Mis» Sophie Barney received theprizeat an Alabama fair as "the best wife for a poor man" wakens immeasurable wonder as to the guage of merit used by the judges. What relation, for instance, did working ability bear to worldly wealth? How are capacity for suffering and domestic accomplishments to be compared Would a wife that could live on straw or one that could take in waahin be preferable for a poor man? These things, indeed, are hard enough to determine, but when we conceive the energetic and inquisitive judges comparing those vari oua attributes and possessions which are as' pleasant in a poor mans wile, we presume, aa in a rich one's, one's mind recoils in very horror at the enormity of the task. It maybe that Miss Sophie Barney Is the right woman for the place, but we don't know how they're going to prove it.

IT is pleasant in these wintry times to read paragraphs like this: "The weather is beautiful in Raleigh, N. C. So spring like. If we were a lady we wouldn't keep our waterfall and panier on such a lovely day as this." »,

THBAE is a fitness in things—even in naming a hotel. St. Paul has its "Grubber" hotel. Now as the main feature ot a hetel|is its "grub," what more appropriate than to name it after its guests and call it th6 "Grubber" house.

THE latest "dodge to escape the gallows as a punishment for murder is for the criminal, before committing the deed, to take out a heavy insurance on bis life. The powerful insurance companies will then throw their protecting arms about him.

GEORGE FRANCIS TRAIN has at last been brought to see things as they are. In his cell in the Tombs he recently perpetrated the following verse:

No gas! No light! No

fire!

O God! how cold is my cell If I had my desire I'd choose a room in A

month or two longer would probably bring George to his senses.

THE New York Herald says "The reasonings of our most sagacious scientific observers point to the present year as entitled to a cyclical maximum of cyclonic and rainfall phenomena corresponding to the maximum of sun spots." All of which, being interpreted, signifies that we may expect an abundance of snow and rain during the present year.

DR. JEWETT, of Connecticut, in a late temperance lecture, produced some leaves of a day-book of the year 1828, by which it was shown that in a common country store four-fifths of the week's sales were for rum. This was to show that the agitation of the temperance question had lessened the sale of liquor. The deteriorated quality of liquor helps to keep up the average amount of damage, however.

W HAT is spending the evening? That depends upon circumstances. Evening is an elastic term stretching from one o'clock P. M. until daylight the next morning. Out in Minnesota evening, evidently, means all night. At a village in that State a hotel party was given, the guests arriving along in the afternoon and having supper about dark, when dancing commenced and continued until about three A. M., when the meal of the festival was discussed and dancing resumed and continued until 6:30 o'clock in the morning, when the party, "feeling they had spent a very pleasant evening," broke up happy-

WHAT IS THR "CREDIT MOBILIER This question continues to be asked, in spite of the repeated explanations already given. The inside history of

that

combination, which availed itself of an old

act

the

of incorporation passed by

Pennsylvania Legislature, and organized under the French financial designation now sa notorious, is related in an affidavit of one of its members, Dr. Thomas C. Durant, of which the following is a brief summary:

When the Union Pacific road was un

der

construction a "ring" was formed inside thedirection, embracing,aa such a combination always does,the shrewdest. most active, and least scrupulous of the Board, for the purpose of making large fortunes for its members in an illegitimate manner, at the cost of the road and ef the unsuspecting stockholders. As usual, the object was to be achieved by means of construction contracts. Through the vote* of the "ring" the work was to be awarded in a

lump

to some dummy contractor, at

a price double or more than double the cost, with a fair profit added for as a great many capacious appetites had to be satisfied, an ample margin waa oeoewary. The contractor waa then to make over the eontract to the "ring" Directors, in the capacity of stockholders of the Credit Mobilier, the pretense being that the Credit Mobilier had the meana to push the work vigorously forward, and woold be better able to do so than any aingle individual. In pursuance of this conspiracy—for it waa nothing else—the oontrsct for the construction of a large portion of the road at Ifty thousand dollars a mile waa awarded and duly assigned to the "ring"—a price which, according to Dr. Durant's statement, waa more than double the legitimate cost of the work. This, however, waa not enough. By the votes of the conspirators many miles of the road which had already been constructed and accepted by the United States Government ss complete, and which had nearly all been paid for by the Union Pacific Company, were included in the contract at fifty tbouaand dollars a mile, and thus an enormous amount of money waa taken bodily, aa it were, out of the pockets of the stock bold iers, without a shadow of justification, and transferred to the greedy rasp ot the ring. The shares of the Jredit Mobilier were thus made at once worth

from

eight to ten times their

face value—th*t la to say, a single thousand dollar share waa worth from eight to ten thousand dollars In cash.

STOKES, who shot Flsk Foster, who killed Putnam with a car hook Sharkey, who brained Dunne King, who pistoled O'Neil Scannell, who did the same thing for Donohue Blskely, who murdered his niece and Simmons, who whittled Duryea with his bowle, —are among the list of murderers in the New York, Tombs. The first two are condemned to be hanged, and the others are likely to be. A correspondent of the St. Louis Republican says of them:

Robt. Blakely, who murdered bis niece, Maud Merrill, at a house of illfame, ia reported to be about the only murderer in the Tombs whose appearance would excite pity. His nervous mourn, his scantily furnished cell, his apparently extreme mental suffering, and all bis surroundings excite the notice of visitors.

Jno. Scannel occupies a fairly furnished room,' in which he receives his friends and seems to enjoy life.

Win. J. Sharkey is another well kept prisoiier, with a comfortably furnished parlor. Visitors bring him white grapes and other del.cacles.

King bears his confinement quietly, writing most of the time. He wears a velvet coat and fancy scarf, and smokes his cigars with nonchalance. The walls have pictures upon them, and his bureau has a boquet of fruit upon it.

Foster, of car-hook notoriety, likes seclusion and keeps bis inner door clos ed much of the time. A reporter says he has evil eyes, good eyes to get away from on a dark night. He smokes a cigar occasionally and has an average amount of luxuries about him.

A cell is being elegantly ftrnished for Simmons, the muraerer ot Duryea, when his ankle permits him to leave the hospital.
