A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.
TERRE HAUTE, JUNE 9, 1877
P. S. WESTFALL,
EDITOR AND PROPRIETOR.
A GENTLEMAN writes to the Newr^Yoi* Tribune that the seventeen-year locusts will appear in fall force in New England in a few days.
MRS. SHERMAN, the Connecticut poisoner, escaped from prison, and the farmers guarded their coffee pots with revolvers, until she was re-captured this week.
PROF. TICK has shot wide of the mark in his weather predictions thus far this month. He can't make it rain in dry weather, and be had no right to stop the much needed rains that fell the first of this week.
A CONNECTICUT clergyman puffed a corpse so well that the grateful daughter of the dead man has bequeathed $10, 000 to the skillful pulpiteer. Our ministers should paste this in the hat they wear to funerals.
RAILROAD trains in Canada were delayed by a singular cause Tuesday morn ing. The tracks were covered by mil lions of caterpillars, and as they were crashed by the wheels the track was rendered so slippery as to retard progress. ____________
THERE seems no limit to the ingenuity of man in devising measures for man's comfort.
Here's a Chicago furniture
dealer who advertises to make chairs to measure, and warrants them to fit any figure, "thereby insuring the greatest possible amount of ease."
THE horror of this week was a terrific tornado at Mt. Cartnel, Ills., Monday evening, causing the immediate death of twelve persons, wounding about fifty and leaving in ruins one hundred and fifty dwellings, four business houses and two churches. A violent wind storm visited Mattoon the same evening damaging many buildings, but fortunately no lives were lost.
IK it is true, as announced, that the employes of the Youngstown Rolling Mill Company, whose mill was destroyed by liro recently, have volunteered to gratuitously rebuild the mill, the case affords an instance of community of feeling between employes and laborers that is worthy of imitation on both sides. When master and men begin to reciprocate such a feeling the long warfare between capital and labor will be near its end.
TOWN TALK, who is no respector of person*, "goes for" the editor of The Mail this week. It is a queer artiele. It reads first like the argument of one who has been appointed in a debating society to take the opposite sldo of his own convictions. He takes a mean advantage in quoting only a portion ofourarticle, and towards the close writes as though we had termed all colleges "fobl-creatiag mills." We did not so term ohe-balf, nor one-fourth, but we said "too many," and we stick to it, that rather than send our children to such institutions, it is better to educato them at home, and if no better school Is attainable, let it be the "practical school of life."
A TRIUMPH of Yankee ingenuity Is sour-milk jewelry. The milk comes in the shape of curd from the butter and cheeso making comities in New York, and looks, upon its arrival, a great deal like popped corn, but before it leaves the shop It undergoes a wonderful change, and receives the name of American coral. The secret in making it is carefully guarded, but

William Matthews, a professed spiritist medium, has been arrested and tried in San Francisco, on a charge of swindling by giving fraudulent seances. Sev^ eral reputable witnesses testified that they attended one of Matthews' exhibition*. Ho entered a cabinet, closed the doors, and in a few moments exposed himself firmly tied to a seat. Spirits had done it, ho said. Then the doors were shut again, and a variety of faces were
at an Aperture. Suddenly a spec
tator wrenched the oablnetopen, another turned on the gas, and Matthews was
with a mask over his face. False whiskers and other things to disguise with, were on the floor. The jury con victed him.

DEBT.-
To the honest and reflecting these perhaps, nothing more em harassing than debt. It eats Into the life and spirits like some corrosive poison it is a black shadow across one's sunshine, a skeleton at one's feast. And yet to "get in debt" is made so easy! We are readily flattered by the eagerness of credit
ors
to accommodate us the time when the account shall fall due seems as remote as eternity the article for which we barter our peace of mind is perebfnee a bargain, which would have been secured by another loiig before we could acquire the hard cash, and therefore its possession appears to us in tne light of a righteous and legitimate economy or it is something which it would be inconvenient or impossible to do without. Everything conspires, circumstances as well as inclination, to urge us to take the fatal step, and it is truly, in this case, the first step which costs. The person who has purchased with credit has henceforth an objection against paying
ready
money at the time of purchase. Furthermore, he buys with less restriction, and does not so often pause to consider what he can afford, while everybody must have observed that bills have a trick of outrunning expectation, if not the ability to settle them and in casting our eyes over an account we will tacitly score item after item which we could have denied ourselves without inconvenience had it not been that purchasing by this method gave so little trouble—we could hardly realize that it involved the future outlay of dollars and cents. The majority of us have a feeling that we shall be "better off" next year, but at the same time a disinclination to wait for that happy period before investing in the luxuries we crave. Yet in running into debt we not only place ourselves in the power of another, but we buy at a disadvantage. For ready money almost everything is offered at a fair profit but those who make large percentages are the only people who can afford to grant long credit. In the meantime many embarrassments occur to irritate the debtor. He may be compelled, like Dick Swiveller, not only to go out into the country in order to reach certain parts of the town, but to find the very friend who has obliged him with a loan obnoxious to him, and td feel tempted to
dodge
an encounter lest that "little affair" should be mentioned inconveniently. A debt, in short, eases a shadow
even
over our joys. It robs us of the
sense
of independence so necessary to self-respect it has stung many a poor soul to the verge of suicide, since, thank Heaven, there are very few of us who can profit by the advice not to worry about our debts, but to leave that disagreeable duty to our creditors!
O XJR SOCIAL LIFE.
The New York Times of a recent date contained a thoughtful and well written article on the subject of introductions in American social life, comparing our customs in that respect with those that prevail in some parts of Europe. Our custom of requiring the family moving into a community to wait to be called upon by their neighbors is similar to that which prevails in Eagland, while in France the custom is exactly the reverse of this, the new family making the initial calls. The latter may seem a queer rule, yet it has obvious advantages. It is the family moving into a new place which suffers from the isolation and loneliness of the situation. Time often drags on wearily while everybody is a stranger and persists in remaining a stranger to them. A few of the neighbors call presently but most of them put off the unpleasant ordeal of making the acquaintance of the new-oomers, with one excuse or another, until weeks and even months have flown by and they are actually ashamed to present themselves. This neglect is very wrong but it is very prevalent—almost universal. Now if the first step was required to be taken by the incoming family the result might be quite different. If the new-comers were of a sociable disposition they would soon break through the restraint and strangeness that surrounds them by freely going into the bouses of their neighbors. Ana In nine times cut of ten they would be heartily welcomed and the hostess would be glad to meet them aronnd her own hearth, instead of having to make the drst formal and ceremonious call. We all know how much easier it is to reoelve a friend in our cwn house than to go and seek him out in his. The former requires no effort, no planning, no preparation. Tho bell rings, the door opens, and before we have time to think, we are in the midst of a delightful chat. The other is not so easy. It requires us first to think about going, to make up our mind to go, to get ready to go and finally to actually sally forth with a heavy foreboding that the thing will miscarry after all, by reason of our friend not being at home. If these facts operate between persons who are well acquainted, how much more significant do they become between those who are entire strangers. There Is no small preference, therefore, in reason and common sense for the French custom.
There Is no denying the fact that Americans, and particularly the people of the West, are far too unsociable. In the East it Is better. In fact the older countries axe always superior to the new In this respect.. We lose a great deal of the pleasure of social life by being so distant and formal and ceremonious. Of oourae it is proper and necessary to hare some rules but It is neither proper nor neoeeeary to observe tbem with puritan
ical
punctiliousness. There are oossion* when It is the highest evidence of good breeding to break tkrough these technical rules ss through the meshesof a spider's web. We want more freedom

and heartiness in our hospitality. We need to spend more time and thought in discharging our social duties. When a stranger comes into the neighborhood he ought to be made to feel at home instead of being held aloof from for weeks and months. Many an.hour that drags heavily might be turned into one of profit and happiness if shared with some one else. Excessive seclusion Is bad both for the individual and for society. People mope in their houses when they ought to be out of them. Not that indiscrimnate running about is commendable but when home begins to grow monotonous and insipid there is something wrong, It is a sure sign that 'the stimulus of companionship Is needed. Some people confine themselves entirely too much in the matter of their acquaintances, having but a few and those quite intimate friends. It is not, of course, Improper for anyone to have a small circle of what might be called special friends, but these need not and ought not to exclude that larger and more general acquaintance which it is the duty of everyone to society to have
A REHABILITATED GODDESS. Half a century ago an event occurred in tho world of art. Tko most beautiful marble figure the world has yet seen—a work that seemed to embody in itself all of pure and elevated ideal, *11 of complete expression in exquisite workmanship that lived in the culminating age of Greek art, was discovered and re leased from a burial of twenty centuries in the classic earth of a small island in the JEgean sea. This figure, time-worn and shattered, but perennially new and bright in its startling loveliness, became known as the Venus of Milo, from the place of its discovery and the Venus Victrix Jrorn one of the various theories as to its original design, most specula tions agreeing in referring it to the goddess of Cyprus for an original. The statue found its way to the Louvre at Paris, where it became, first, the central figure In that world-famed collection of art treasures and in a larger sense the central point of interest, as it is the culminative product, of the whole universe of art and beauty. Lovers of the beautiful converge to it from all distant countries as to a shrine of all most worthy of their worship. Thousands have visited and looked upon it where it stands. Other thousands in all lands have made less intimate acquaintance with its charm^ through casts and photographs. The statue has a literature too. It has been discussed in many languages and through all degrees of passionate admiration and aesthetic appreciation. Thus it needs no description here. The rather small life-size figure the pure face, instinct with every lofty conception and exalted fancy of a time when men lived lives filled with the noblest ideals of beauty and tenderness the form, marble Incarnation of an almost unimaginable, dream of sensuous, yet pure and healthful grace and beauty, rising from the flowing drapery massed about the hips as its fabled original rose from the foam of her own peculiar sea, the touching pathos of the broken and missing arms all these are familiar to the merest neophyte and tyro in art studies.
There has been much of heated controversy mingled with the praise and adoration that has clustered about this relic of Greek loveliness. Its purposo, its original position, even its identity have been called into question by critics and savacs. Pure idealization of perfect womanhood that it is, lacking something of the voluptuousness of the Venus of a coarser time, It has been called by
other
names. Certain soulless pedants have wished to style it Minerva. Certain others have made it a mortal, not discerning that its human perfection and loveliness best fitted it to embody a Greek divinity, calling it Helen, and fancying that one of the missing arms upheld the apple bestowed by Paris. The theories that recognize it as a Venus differ as to its design and pose, the lost arms leaving much to speculation. The idea embodied in the name Victrix, supposed the figure standing singly, in an attitude of triumph and holding aloft a shield or emblem. Of this more hereafter. Other theories supposed su attitude of contemplation, suggested by the calmness of the face, with various details of surroundings. Still others imagined the figure as one of a group variously supposed to contain other divinities, or to represent the judgment of Paris. During the years since the dis covery in 1820, these different theories have received varying credence.
One day last week, another event occurred in the world of art, one connected with and the sequel to the discovery of 1820. On the same Greek Island of Milo, within ten steps of the resting place of the marblo wonder now in the Louvre, by fortunate chance or careful search, a lucky delver in that classic mould has discovered a pair of exquisitely modeled marble arms which are believed to be those so long missed from the famous statue. The announcement was received with some hesitation, but the United States charge d'affaires at
Athens,
Meredith Read, himself a gen
tleman of taste and culture declares, in a dispatch to Washington, his belief in the authenticity of the discovery. His statement is that the locality in which the arms were found, and the wonderful workmanship of the members have convinced all observers of their authenticity. Thus the most beautiful sculptured figure now In existence Is rendered complete and symmetrical, and the most precious artistic bequest of the antique to the modern world is res tored to something of Its original love
liness
Of course, by whomsoever dis
covered, the srms will find their way into the possession of tb$ French gov
ernment and'Ife joined to the status In the Louvre. The result will be a new accession of interest In the famous marble, and probably a new flood of reproductions lnfpiaster and on paper. One result of the discovery Is the settlement of disputes as to pose in fkvorof the Venus Victrix theory. The exsct position of the arms is not stated, but one is said to bear aloft a disk or shield, thus establishing the theory most probable at the outset. "ww**

THERE is a case now before the Supreme Court of this State, which has been advanced on the docket on account of its Interest to the general public, so that a decision may be reached at an early day. It is the case of the State vs. Nelson P. Hood, and comes up from Dearborn Circuit Court. Hood procured one of those patent, adjustable Utah divorces while a resident of Indiana and afterwarJs re-married. He was subsequently Indicted for fornication and found guilty aud from this verdict an appeal was taken to the Supreme Court. The decision of the Supreme Court will be awaited with interest
MAYOR MOORE, of Cincinnati has been sorely perplexed over the Sunday beer question, but after much study has decided that the beer gardens need not be closed. He said to a committee of clergymen "It is unjust of you to de mand that others, who have a different view of the Sabbath from yourselves,4 shall be oppressed. Your churches shall be protected, and the authorities will do all in their power in order that services may not be disturbed. I have -at all times granted to churches, when they have given entertainments and exhibitions. and even raffles, which are also illegal, free licenses. Live and let live. Permit the people to have their innocent amusements." The Murphy total abstinence movement is under powerful headway In Cincinnati, and a further determined effort will be made to enforce the Ohio law, which is plainly against the sale of beer on Sunday. On the other hand, the Germans are numerous and influential there, and they will not readily submit to the closing of th9 gardens.
THE case of the Indiana North and South Railway Company vs. The City of Attica, which was decided in the Supreme Court a few months ago and caused a good deal ofexcitement in certain quarters, has been recently decided anew, on a petition for rehearing. The case is simply this: The City of Attica donated ?60,000 of its bonds in aid of the construction of the railroad, on the condition that the company should erect its machine shops in or near the city. This the company failed to do but wanted the gGO,000 all th9 same. The former opinion, rendered by Judge Buskirk, held that the city, under the statue, had no power to annex such a condition to its donation and that the condition was void, though the donation itself was valid and binding. The last opinion, rendered by Judge Howk, holds that under the statue the city could do but two things, viz Subscribe to the stock of the road or make an absolute donation in aid of its construction that in this case the arrangement in fact amounted to a contract of bargain and sale between the city and the railroad company, and tfas hence illegal, void and not enforceable on either side. The effect of this decision is that the city of Attica will not be compelled to pay f60,000 for something she never received, and it certainly seems to us that the latter opinion stands on a much better foundation in equity and justice than the former. ______________
IT is somewhat strange that the Mur phy or red ribbon movement has not struck this city. At many points in the state it has carried all before it—notably so at Indianapolis, where, according fco a correspondent of the New New York Sun, as you walk through the streets, nearly every third person you meet Is decorated with a red ribbon, every sixth with a whim, and every tenth with a blue. The blue is worn by members of the "Murphy" League, an organization that differs slightly from the red Ribbon in the framing of their constitution and form of pledge. The white ribbon is worn by women and youths under eighteen, and might be termed the badge of a side degree of the Rsd Ribbon League, women and children not being allowed to enter into full communion. The difference between the form of the Murphy, or blue ribbon pledge, and the Reynolds, or red ribbon, Is only slight as will he seen by the following comparison:
THE MURPHY PLEDGE.
I, he undetsigned, do pledge my word and honor,God helping me to abftaln fiom all intoxicating llquoisa* a beverage, anil that I will, by all honorable means, enceurnge«. ther* to abstain.
THE RKD RIBBON PLEDGE.
We, the undersigned, for oar own good and the good of the world ID which we live, do hereby promise and engage, with the help ot Almighty God. to abstain from buyjnK,sel' g, or ulng alcoholic or malt beverages, wine or cider included. 'fhe total number who have signed the Red Ribbon temperance pledge in Indianapolis is about 5,000. Of this num ber, nearly 2.000 are ladies and youths mow than 1,000 were recently confirmed drunkards, leaving a balance of something less than 2,000, several hundred of whom may be classod as moderate drinkers, the remainder being temperance men who hope, by example and encouragement to strengthen those likely U31 by the wayside. The wearing of
the
ribbon is Intended to protect the wearer against that greatest of all temptations, the invitation to take a drink.
PRESERVER peas are, far more commonly than people think, colored with salts of copper, to counterfeit the fresh, natural tint. If they are put up without being artificially colored they have a
yellowish hue, and this suggests an easy test of their purity by simple inspection. Pasteur has found that out of 14 oases of pess which he .analysed, 10 had been treated with copper, to such an amount in some instances that this poisonous adulterant was equal to one-ten-thousandth part of the entire mass, minus the water.
IT is now srgued that it is unnecessary to kill broken legged horses,' and a case in point is stated by the Rochester Times: Twelve weeks ago, the nigh hind leg was broken of Mr. Williams' valua ble and favorite mare, hi Utica, by a kick from another horse. The fracture was half way between the fetlock and the gambrel joints, and was complete. A veterinary surgeon undertook to set the leg. A canvas sling was arranged, and the mare suspended in it in such away that she could occasionally rest upon her uninjured limbs. The fractured leg was then set, bound with hickory and leather splints, with a heavy leather boot outside of all. The mare did well, and never missed a meal. After three weeks,- a plaster of Paris was substituted and in seven weeks "Nellie" was walking around tho stable. There was no sign ot the fracture, and it is thought that she will keep her 2:40 gait.

The Christian Union says: The Sabbath of the past will not be the Sabbath of the future indeed, it will not be the Sabbath at all it will be the Lord's day. The current that flows away from the past is unmistakable. Sabbath committees, assemblies, convocations, cannot dam it up. They might better attempt to stop the flow of tho Mississippi with bullrushea than to stop a current of public thought with sermons, tracts and resolutions. If the church is wise it will study the Lord's day of the future, rather than the Sabbath of the past—the Christian festival of tbe next decade rather than the Puritan fast day of the last century—and seek to guide the current which it is, happily, powerless to check. The only effect of endeavoring to shut the doors of the public library and the gates of the park is to augment the moral power of those who would, open the theatre and the beer garden.
CAMERON'S "Across Africa" says that on the death of a Urua chief, it is the custom "to divert the course of a stream and in its bed to dig an enormous pit. the bottom of which is then covered with living women. At. one end a woman is placed on her hands and knees, and upon her back the dead chief, covered with his heads and treasures, is seated, being supported on cither side by one of bis wives, while his second wile sits at his feet. The earth Is then shoveled in on them, aud all the women are buried alive with the exception of the second wife. To her custom is more merciful than to her companions, and grants her the privilege of being killed before the huge grave is filled in. This being completed, a number of male slaves—sometimes forty or fifty—are slaughtered, and their blood poured over the grave after which the river is allowed to resume its course."
