A mother sits alone, pale and anxious, gazing upon tho littlo moaning one in hor arms, which slio gently rocks to a low lullaby. She starts as a well known step cchoos In tho hall. One moment mbre and a bright countenance, beaming with love, is bending over her, a HO it kiss is imprinted on her forehead, and a sigh of relief and j«*y, too pure for utterance springs from that young heart. T. T. loves to look upon such beautiful pictures, such swoet, holy sjrtnpathies. It almost causes him to ronounce his bachclor life. It ii too lato now. T. T. is fated to live and »!io an old bachelor. But you who ar« blessed with beautiful h«mo nests, should strive to make your tlrosidos cheerful and happy—tho dear resting spot, after the day's struggle in the troublous lido of business, and cherish it for its holy reunions, happy meetings and hallowed associations.

wrath," or chiding the tempter if he be regenerate. T. T., however, has a sovereign remedy for this trouble, if tho milkmen will only heed and be wise. In other oities tho venders of dissolved chalk find an economy of time in leaving their wagons—just as tho ioe men do in summer—and delivering the milk at the kitchen doors or windows, or in receptacles placed for that purpose in somo convenient station. Very often the delivery could be made in less time than is now required to ring that doleful I boll tho first time, to say nothing of the second or third ringing, and the lapse of time between each performance. Here is is a chance to institute a noblo reform —let the peoplo lay hold of the matter.

Night-Hawk.

TIIK MYSTERIOUS INDIVIDUAL.

N. II. was slipping around the city tho other night looking after the Hon. W111, Rudiier—as his exchequer is running quite low, and seeing a liberal reward offered for that gentleman's recapturd—when he happened to run across a mysterious looking individual whom he feared very much was the identical- Rudifer but who turned out to be quito a different person. The mysterious man seems to have an object in view, but just what that object can be, is what excites the curiosity of a particular class of business men. N. H. has made one discovery, which is worthy of note, in reference to this man of few words. He is invariably to be found in or about the door of saloons, and seoms to be watching every little thing which transpires, as much so as tho proprietor himself. N. 11. has watched this mysterious individual for hours, but has nover seen him drink anything. In fact N. H. has offered to treat him quite a number of times, but he has as often declined the proffered favor. Ho talks but little, yet he is always ready to give you a civil answer. There is nothing in the man's manner or appearance that ought to excite any suspicion as to his honesty of purpose but evidently he has a mission and whatever that mission may be, there ii one thing N. II. has made up his mind to, somebody will hear something drop, and the somebody won't know who held the something up, till it's too late, if the nine o'clock feature of the Baxter bill is not more strictly adhered to than heretofore, especially at the back door. N. II. saw the mysterious individual watching a certain business house which is in the habit of entertaining its company after nine o'clock in the "sample room," and N. H.'s oyes flew wide open as to the mission of this fellow. Look out, my good friends, there's a nigger on tho fence, since that famous resolution of Councilmen Hager and Smith. N. H. con Id tell the members of the committee something but if they livelong enough, they will find it out themselves. One thing's certain, however, State Senator Reno "is a temperance man, and no law will be permitted to remain on our statute which in any way hedges up the cause." lie has been heard from. Tho Committee on Temperance should take fresh courage.

WHY THE CHANOF

N. H. has observed in his night travels that so many young mon prefer to walk the alleys instead of tho streets. Tills is something passingly strange, to say the least of it, when our streets are so mnch safer for pedestrians to travel. It is true, nevertheless. Why, just tho other night, as N. II. was going home,— and it was quite lato—he saw a number of young men who, be supposed, had been to the theater, turn off of Main street and plod their way through one of the darkest alleys in the city. N. H. knew all of them, and knows that none of them live in the direction to which the alley leads. They could not be going this way to cut short the distance home, for it was certainly much farther than to have gone directly up Main street. The walking was not good, and besides, there were no ntreel lamps in the alley. N. II. made up his miud that there was a reason for this strange freak of nature, but just what that reason is perhaps somebody else can tell better than N. H. Now, If it were true, that these joung men ever drank anything, it could not have been for the purpose of taking a dr nk they chose to go in that direction, for It was long after 9 o'clock, and the saloons were, of course, all closed. N. H. has noticed other and similar cases of the same character, with persons be has every nwon to believe are sober, steady and industrious men. Business men, lawyers, doctors, and a score of the lead-

milkman's breast. To say nothing of the time lost In watering the milk, and ing men of the city, all, for some unaowaitlng for money from delinquent customers, there are hours upon hours of precious, golden time wasted in waiting upon the tuovions of dilatory servants, who seldom or new, look out for the milk when the beil rings, unless break* test Is waiting, and the master of the bouse is fuming or furious at the delay.

countable reason, prefer the alley after a certain hour in the evening, to walking on the beet stone or briek pavement the eity affords. There Is also a key to this mystery, and N. H. proposes to ferret it out, if it takes all winter. Come to think of It, perhaps the "mysterious Individual" to taking a note of this

Vol. 5.—No. 30. TERRE HAUTE, IND., SATURDAY EVENING, JANUARY 28, 1875:

timely notice on this point ho has serions doubts. A man's almost in danger now to be safe, since Hager and Smith "resolved" aud Reno "pledged." "PARTIES" F!

If there is one thing more than another that X. H. utterly abhors and inwardly despises, it's tho tiling called "a fashionable party." X. II. is tteldom invited to one of these detestable pli:.-es, for lie's married but'occasionally ho gets a bid, and then he has to succumb to tho pressure, or his coffee is salted for the next ten days, or so Ion: as his wife remains huffy, which is seldom a less period of time. The editor of The Mall must pardon N. II. the digression, as his business isnight woik,—but, conio to think of it, the party business comes under that head. N. H.'s time had come to suffer, and accordingly the invitation to sup with a friend was accepted, and tho event came off with preliminaries one evening of this week. It is not of the good time nor tho bad time N. H. enjoyed that he wishes to make mention this much is already inferred. It's the style. And N. H. must be honest in this matter and render unto Ciesar that which belongs to Ctosar. The old maids and dashing widows laid the young ladies so far beneath tho clods of fashionable obscurity that N. H. doubts—if a fashionable resurrectien had have dawned on tho party about ten o'clock that r.ight—whether anything under sweet forty-five, unmarried, and sixty, a dashing widow, would have been recognized as being worthy a resurrection to a soat in the gallery of a fashionable heaven. And this wasn't a very fashionable party either—at least wouldn't be considered such in real high life. The greatest number of curly-haired old maids, with spit curl attachments—all natural— that N. H. remembers ever to have seen at one party, he saw 011 this eccasion. The widows were somewhat in the minority, but did an equal amount of conjecturing as to what the result of the next wedding would be in case it is not taken in hand by tho proper ones—the mother and oldest daughter—and their advice adhered to. As for "giggling," old T. T., your best girl gipgler sinks into utter insignificance, when compared with N. H.'s old martyrs. They giggle scientifically, and can feign a laugh when no other humau being could get up a smile without rupturing a blood-vessel. And then that excruciating "Ah, my ah, deah." Oh, it's too silly to think about. N. H. swears off—can't do tho subject justice. If Mrs. N. H. evor asks him to go to another party he'll get a divorce, and if he ever catches one of his children acting so foolish, it will get the best spanking N. H. is capable of bestowing.

A BAD CASE.

X. IT. Ielievcs that the article called "true love" is of divino origin. In fact lie has proof of it which he considers much stronger than the scrap of history on this point—personal experience. But it is not of "true love" N. H. wishes to speak in this paragraph it's altogether another kind of "dog," commonly known as "puppy love." N. H. knows of a "chronic case'' of this stupefection. Both of them havo got it bad. The young man has got it the baddest, if possible. N. II. happens to meet this oouple quite often—almost every night —but they never see him. They ar» perfectly dead to all surroundings, and deaf to everything except each other's cooing. Ono coos, and then the other ooos she smile*, and then he smiles it's mutual what's his is hers, and what's his belongs to 'em both. N. II. thinks it's a bad ease, and would recommend suicide, or something, immedistely. There's doubtless plenty of such casesr, hut N. H. hasn't time to work them up. This

BJBOOKLYM TRAOEDY.

Although the trial of Henry Wsrd Keccher, long expected and long postponed, is now going on in the city oourt of Brooklyn before an assemblage which fills every inch of available spaco, either sitting or standing while hundreds swarm at the door unable to gain an entrance notwitiistanding the greatness of the trial and the interest in it which extends to tho remotest limits of the country, wherever a newspaper permeates, the readers of many of the Western papers would not know that the trial is in progress if their eyes happened not to light on a very small paragraph in each morning's paper informing them of the ftict. For some unaccountable reason, the agent of the Associated Press at New York pursues a studied purpose to withhold the news of this trial from the hundreds of papers whioh belong to the association and whose servant he is. Even tho few words he does send are made to convey the smallest amount of information in the dryest possible way, so as practically to emasculate the proceedings of all interest. Those papers which have immense funds te draw upon can of course hire their own reporters in Brooklyn and obtain their news In the expensive shape of specials, but when they have done this they have probably less than every paper in the association is entitled 'to, without any extra expense, through the regular channel. Whether this singular method of procedure is designed for the exclusive benefit of the Xew York press or not would be an excellent question for investigation.

Meantime, all who have had the opportunity of reading the very elaborate reports of the Xew York papers, must ha\ been surprised and pained at the character of the proceedings. It would be indelicate and improper to refer to the substance of the evidence and draw conclusions therefrom while the case is on trial in court, but it is neither improper nor indelicate to reflect on the behavior of Mr. Beecherand Plymouth church during the trial. The actions of these people cannot help impressing one as a studiod, theatrical attempt to influence the court and jury by means altogether illegitimate on such a matter. In the first place Plymouth church is always represented by a strong phalanx of respectable members whose immaculate shirt fronts and fine clothes are marshaled in conspicuous reserved seats on the side of the famous preaoher. Mrs. Beecber is there and Mrs. Tilton, and a pretty and affecting little piece of feminine by-play is produced very gracefully by the cordial greetings, hand-shak-ings and promenading of these so vastly divided women, if the story that is told be true. Then, as is usual wherever Mr. Beecher goes, there is a profusion of choice flowers placed upon the stand where he is to sit, the tribute of some fair devoted saint of his congregation of course, Innocently plaood there to relieve the tedium of the long court hours, which must be very wearing on the tried pastor. Lastly, there is Mr. Beecher himself, behaving iu a very singular way for a guiltless man. He is quite cheerful, suspiciously cheerful, in fact. His superfluity of spirits is suggestive of simulation and of being put on for dramatic effect. At the conclusion of Judge Morris' long and fervid arraignment he is so unaffected and happy that he can not resist the temptation to make an unseemly display of his spirits by going across the room to the counsel of his adversary, introducing himself to Mr. Morris, and laughing and chatting as if wholly unconoerned about the result of the issue. All this displays admirable qualities of self command on the part of Mr. Beecber, hut tho world has long ago recognised his greatness. That is established beyond any room for doubt. What the public is desirous of knowing now is whether Mr. Bceoher is an innocent manor not, and we cannot help saying that such conduct as this is not well calculated to make a fhvorable Impression. It is unbecoming and disrespectful of the court, to any the least of it. If Mr. Beecher Is innocent of the terrible charge on whkth he Is being tried, he would not need to take sneh pains to advertise the foot. A serious and dignified bearing would look aneh better than unseemly levity sad reckless enrol—ii—. Even If not for himsell, the sorrowftd foes of the stricken man who was onee his cherished frtad, but whose fortune and happiness were riven aa by a thunderbolt, and of whose misfortunes he was the author, whether innocent of the Intent or not, the feee of this man, within a few feet of him, should suppress all heartless mirth In a man who had any hsart. Wo haw not read anything of the kind before which caused such a revulsion of feeling, turning from sympathy to disgust, as this uncalled for and unbecoming action ot Henry Ward Beecher.

Tilton, ss usual, lights his way alone. Oalm, collected and resolute he siu with unmoved features, never glancing for ail Instant in the direction of her who waa once the ideal of his young love, the

Meantime the rulings of Judge Keils6n seem very fair, and calculated to give the fullest justice to the counsel for the plaintiff: indeed the Judge does not hesitate to snub the counsel on the other side when they ask what seems to the court more than is justly due. Evidently the trial will consume a long period, and the verdict of the jury will he awaited with extreme interest. ^, =*5==sa™ pp

There are no Influential friends around him, no dramatic by-play of respectability In high places in bis behalf. There are evidently many in the room whose sympathies aro with him, for suppressed applause is heard at intervals when his counsel make strong point. But It has its origin mostly in the gallery, and comes from a class of peoplo very different from those on the other side. Theodore Tilton is thoro for justice. Shall ho go out ot that room stigmatised as a perjured villain, bearing not only his present grievous burden but the heavier one still of being misunderstood and misjudged?
