A PAPER FOR THE PEOPLE.

1ERRE HAUTE, JUNE 10,1877

P. S. WESTFALL, EDITOR AND PROPRIETOR.

THK sale of putrid meat greatly disturbs the people of New York city.

ALL quiet on the Danube. But there is a good deal of activity on both sides of it.

LEE, the ex-Governor of Wyoming, eulogizeth woman's fitness to hold office.

Two Ohio criminals have confessed a crime for which an innocent man was hung eight years ago.

SECRETARY SHERMAN dislikes having more than ne office-holder from a family and makes dismissals therefor.

JKKF DAVIS is raid to be hard at work writing bis memoirs. If he tells it all what a horrible tale be will unfold.

THK New York Express said Charlie Ross was stolen to Bupply the place of the dead son of an aristocratic English family. __________

ONE of the strangest features of the Russo-Turco war is that, thus far, in every battle both Russians and Turks have been victorious.

FRENCH courts have giv^n a decision that a will made by a person who believes in spiritualism is null and void, on the ground of insanity.

ANNA DICKINSON is writing a new play, and the New York critics have betaken themselves to a raw meat diet in preparation for its reception.

IT is announced from Washington that Gen. Fred. Knefler will succeed Gen. Terrell as pension agent at Indianapolis from the first of July.

THIS has been a most remarkable year for calamities by fire, flood and accident. The loss of li/e has been appalling and the destruction of property enormous.

THJB fast train business is now faster than ever, only the order of things is reversed. The lightning trains run now from West to East—the result of a rivalry between the trunk lines.

THE curious fact has lately be9n developed with reference to the telephone, that it won't work when the aura-bo-realis is visible, or there are extraordinary electric disturbances in the atmosphere. ___________

THE Adventists have set down the 7th of July, this jear, as the date when this world is to cbme to an end. This is rather earlier than it was predicted for last year, and will hardly give time to harvest the wheat crop.

DEATH put his scythe into the Indianapolis newspapers this week, and two new Issues went the way of all flesh— the Evening Post and the Hoosier Patron. Wonder when the grim destroyer will come this way?

THE fact of the thorough and irremediable insanity of Dr. Ayer of Lowell, may now be regarded as indubitably established. A paragraph in an eastern paper announces that he is enthusiastically devoted to the game of croquet.

THK Rev. McGbee was .convicted at Dixon, Ills., ou Wednesday, of poisoning bis wife, in order that he might marry a Miss Paddoeh, living in the family. He goes to the penitentiary for fourteeu years, and the wedding is postponed. ..

THERE is cold comfort for ambitious aspirants to start new papers and the reminiscences of Erastus Brooks that in his forty years connection with the Express, 112 papers have been Jaorn and died iu New York city, which now has fower papers than it had 25 years ago.

THJB New York Tribune strikes a responsive chord in tho universal public heart when it remarks that strawberries and cream at grateful midsummer prices aro deservedly more popular than politics dolivered free gratis and meagerly seasoned with patriotism and common sense.

POSTMASTER GENERAL KEY continues to seise every available opportunity of explaining that h« is and will always remain a Democrat. It is a little curious that beseems to have a keener appreciation of the necessity for such explana tious than the general public has interest in the Bubjoct.

JAMES A. KASSON will go to Austria, as minister, instead of to Spain, and James Russell Lowell, the anther has been teudered and has accepted the mission to the latter country. We note the appointment ot Mr. Lowell with plea sure, both for his own sake and for that of the country.

THB corporation of Ixndon, of which Gen. Grant has been made a citizen, is more exclusive and chary In bestowing this favor than it is fastidious in the selection of recipients. Among reeent distinguished foreigners thus honored were Napoleon III, the hero of 1SS2, and Suluui Abdul Axi*. the hero of the Seraglio.

THK English people have contributed 28,000 pounds within a year t»r the benefit of certain, somewhat dirty, drunken and cowardly people in the distant province of Bulgaria.

recent endeavor to

preoeat a public testimonial to the descendant* Daniel Defpe realised something Ire* than 100 pounds. The Eng llsh arc crratlc lu their benevolence.

*fz?:

AT a meeting of the Cabinet it has been decided that the prosecutions tor complicity in the Mountain Meadow massacre shall be vigorously pushed, and that in the event of any interference by the Mormon population with the United States authorities, a sufficient force •will be provided to insure them protection. This decision will especially interest Brigham Young, who if he is wise will make haste to get out of harm's way. Unquestionably he deserves to suffer the fate of his creature Lee.

THE Prince of Wales was a prominent figure on the box of a coach at the recent meeting of the London Coaching Club. This suggests a notable community of tastes between himself and the present distinguished Republican guest of bis nation, and a possible grateful means of entertainment. Let Albert Edward take Grant out for a ride behind a team of spanking roadsters, and be will find that this American ex-president, something taciturn and awkward in noble drawing rooms, will come out wonderfully as social companion and general good fel low under the congenial influence.

IMPROVEMENTS in the art of telegraphy have been rapid and startling but it would seem that the end is net yet. Fast on the heels of the telephone comes the discovery, made by a San Francisco editor, of a process whereby a whole page of a newspaper can be transmitted in half an hour. This wonderful feat is accomplished by telegraphing fac similes of th? stereotype plates. The plate is quickly prepared by filling the depressions between the letters with a non-conducting substances when it is placed upon a cylinder and made to revolve rapidly. Fingers attached to a traveling frame are made to pass over the cylinder and as tho face of each type is touched the circuit is closed and thus the record of the letters is made on a corresponding cylinder at the other end of the line. A Washington dispatch announces that a patent has just been issued to tbe inventor, and if the process will work satisfactorily in practice, his discovery will make oil wells a matter of utter indifference to him.

THE blue glass mania is waning, and advertisements for the sale of the cerulean filterer of sunlight have dropped from the newspapers, leaving almost every drug store in tho land with a small stock on hand. Of course anew mania must take its place, and we have it»in— celery Celery is the greatest food in the world for the nerves," says one of our contemporaries and the information is traveling the length and'breadth of the land. It is fashionable now a days to call every ailment that flesh is heir to a nervous disease and where our ances-' tors would have resorted to such homely remedies as a hot ''drink and simple cathartics, the present practice demands chloral, and bromides, and quinine and strychnine, and phosphates, and rare chemicals without number. Of course, celery is pleasanter to take than most drugs and now that it is brought forward as a nervine, plenty of people will use it. As it can do no harm, and, indeed, may actually work good by checking the too prevalent consumption of "nervous specifics," the mania is rather a benefit than otherwise, and should be encou raged

THE suicidal mania appears to have broken out for the summer. Indianapolis furnished a couple of victims the other day and St. Louis panned out three cases within forty-eight hours. One fellow a gambler by trade, went into a pawn-shop, and having selected a revolver as if with the intention of purchasing, requested to have it loaded, and when this was done, placed it to his head and blew his brains out. From which we may infer that the life of a professional -gambler is liable to become overclouded at times as well as more hor.est lives. The worst feature, perhaps, of this case was the pernicious effect of the example on others for a certain German, having read the account of the suicide before rising from bed In the morning, was so affected by it that he tooK a revolver from the bureau drawer, placed it to his right temple, as the othey had" done, and successfully performed the experiment, leaving a wife and two children to mourn his suicidal experiment. Doubtless there are other lunatics who will be heard from in due time.

THE reception of General Grant across the water causta a doubt as to whether there is "a bigger man than old Gratit." Ovation has followed ovation, and yesterday he was tendored the freedom of the city by tbe Lord Mayor of London. This ceremony, one of much pomp, was followed by a breakfast at two o'clock. On Monday be will dine at tbe Reform Club, where Earl Granville will preside. On the 19th he will attend a special entertainment at the Crystal Palace. On tbe 20th he will dine with the Marquis of Rlpon, and attend a ball at Buckingham Palace. On the 22rd be will attend the Queen's concert at Buckingham Palace. On the 23rd be will dine with the Prince of Wales this will be the grandest entertainment of General Grant's visit in point of rank of the guests. Tbe date of tbe dinner with Earf Derby is not fixed, in consequence of the absence of the Countess of Derby neither is the dare of the Queen's dinner fixed on account of her majesty's absence. Earl Beaconsfield's dinner has been declined on account of other engagements. The.ex-president is receiv ed everywhere with great cordiality.

TERRE HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING MAIL.

APPALLING DISASTER. Tbe details of the destruction caused by the great tidal wave on the coast of Peru have been published thisweek. We give It but a passing thought, and yet it Is an appalling story of disaster and death—ruin to over $20,000,000 worth of property and sudden death to near 1,000 people—and it is near enough to startle us with its terrors. The shock of tbe earthquake which produced this devastation raised the waters In the harbor of San Francisco In a few hours after tho shook at Iqulque and other points, and uplifted in tbe track of China-bound vessels tbe rock upon which the steamship San Francisco went down. Tbe wreck at Peruvian ports was sudden and complete. Iqulque, built of wood and C9ne, went out like a shadow and what tbe shock left, the flames and then tbe waters swept away. The pitiable oondltion of the Inhabitants may be imagined when it is known that its supply of drinking water was obtained from condensers, and that these condensers were ruined by tbe shock. Tbe chief damage dene seems to have come from the great waves, which broke over tbe land, in one place the height of the water being placed at sixty -five feet. The eartbqurke seems to have shaken down the filmsily constructed towns, and the guano deposits, the sea finishing the havoc. This varies the history of Peruvian eathquakes, one of which, in 1746, destroyed Lima, when the shocks came every seven or eight minutes, and when there were over 200 violent ones in twen-ty-four hours. Arica was obliterated in a few minutes, in 1868, and the 50,000 inhabitants of Arequipa found themselves cltyless, houseless, and foodless in a few seconds. A curious reminiscence is afforded by the statement that the United States steamer Wateree, which was dashed two miles inland by the furious waves of the shock of 1868, was by this new commotion lifted from her bed and borne two miles north of her old position. The narrative of the disaster Is a record of misery none the less pitiful because death and ruin have befallen a people to whom we attribute nothing good in the advpneement of the world's interests, and who are not, consequently, linked to us by other ties than those ot sympathy.

UNDECIDED YOUNG MEN. A world of trouble is occasioned to young girls by the Indecision of character of young men. A pretty girl is living in the neighborhood of half a dozen young men. She is not only beautiful, but she is good, well educated, and accomplished. Perhaps there is not one of these young men who would not take a particular interest in her, for she is a general favorite,' but they observe that one of their number seems to have got the start of them he is a regular and frequent visitor, and his attentions do not appear to be at all displeasing in the quarter where they are bestowed so the others fall back, or turn their eyes elsewhere.

The young man who has brought all this about goes on from week to week from month to month it may even bo from year to year, without any definite plan of tbe future, or so much as any clear decision in bis own mind of what he wishes to do. He likes the young lady he knows that his visits are pleasant to himself and acceptable to her he would not like her to receive particular attention»from another yet he says not a word about engagement and marriage, the end and aim of a woman's life.

He has gradually won her affections, until he has become "the ocean to the river of her thoughts." She could not bear to break off with him, to be separated from him for she loves him as she fondly believes, and perhaps truly, as she can never love another! But how harrowing is the state of doubt and uncertainty in which she drifts on?

Reflection should make young men careful how they win the hearts they do not wish to wear. They have no right to monopolize a girl's society so long as they are in a state of entire indecision as to their own wishes aud purposes.

But while tbe fault may lie with the young men, the folly rests as much with the young women. They should be early wise and guard their affections from becoming fastened upon a young man from whom they have no assurance and of whom they know nothing more than that he Is an agreeable companion. They should beware of young min of Indecision of character, who having once ingratiated themselves into favor, will dawdle along, as if it were no part of their duty to give to the future, and to the happiness of others, a single thought.

It is rarely utidecided associations are productive of permanent good. There are m5.ny circumstances which intervene in tbe progress of time, and render tbem highly Injurious to both parties. As In the one case tbe eligible young men keep their distance for fear of In trudlng, so In tbe other the undecided young man is looked upon by young girls in the neighborhood as partly, If not wholly, engaged and it is only In the case of a filrt any attempt Is made to draw him away but, should bis attentions cease for any cawe, be finds it a difficult matter, indeed, to reinstate himself elsewhere.

AN iron case ninety-two feet long and fifteen feet wide is in process of tnanufectnre in England,- which is designated for use in the removal of the marble shaft, known as Cleopatra's Needle, from its position in Egypt to England. The ease will be furnished with masts, sails, etc., and be fitted up so as to sail on ita own account. Tbe shaft Is sixty nine feet long, and weighs nearly half a million pounds*

THE QUESTION OF THE UNEM PLOYED. Indianapolis is having a serious time with the labor question. A great many^ worklngmen are, and for a good while have been, out of employment there, and tbe matter of keeping their families from real suffering for want of food is engaging the earnest consideration of the municipal authorities. In a message to the council Mayor Caven says tbe manufactories of the city are employing more men than at any former period but that the surplus of laborers is owing to the fact that so many men thrown out of employment at other points congregate there, attracted by tbe reputed growth and prosperity of tbe city. He states further that if half tbe men who have gone there in the last six months in search of work would leave, there would be plenty to do for tbe rest. But how to get rid of this excess, that is the question. Where are they to go and what are they to do? Mayor Caven thinks that with 88,000 acres of uncultivated land in Marion county and eight millions in the State, there should be no idle or hungry people. Theoretically these Idle men should become tillers of the soli. The trouble Is, however, tbe Idle men don't own the land, have no implements to cultivate it with, nor the means of removing and supporting themselves until a crop could be raised. Their only hope then In this direction depends upon tbe willingness of farmers to employ tbem and their ability to find the farmers in need of help. The Mayor suggests tbe appointment of a committee to advertise In tbe weekly papers having a large circulation among farmers, notifying all who want laborers to corres pond with the committee who «could supply their wants from tho ranks of the unemployed. The suggestion seems feasible and will doubtless be acted upon

Indianapolis furnishes a striking illustration of a stite of affairs we havu fre quently commented upon, viz., that there has been for soveral years past a concentration of too many people from, the country into the towns and cities. Now the latter are compelled to spew this superfluous population out. The only cure for the evil must be a steady migration from city to country until a healthy equilibrium is once more established.

STUDYING close into the matter, we will cease to wonder why more borrowed umbrellas are not returned. Did you ever undertake to return a borrowed umbrella? You may have got this umbrella last night, it was raining hard at the time, and you could not very well do without shelter. It was to be returned next morning so you promised and so you honestly intended! This morning broke with a clear sky, the sun came forth and flooded tbe.earth with Its radiance, there is not a fleck of cloud visible, nor the faintest indication of rain. But change in nature, great as it is, is no greater than tbe transformation in that umbrella. Last night, In a dashing rain, it was a most appropriate companion, at every step you thought of it with keen pleasure, now it is a strikingly awkward contrivance, and you view it with undisguised disfavor. The more you think of escorting this object down the street through the bright sunshine, or obtruding it like a noisome shadow among a grateful and delighted people, the more repulsive it appears to you. In desperation you l'-ok for a cloud, something that will in the eyes of impartial* men at least, save you from contempt—but you do not find it. With a «igh you turn your back upon the obnoxious umbrella, and go to business. It needs rare courage, indeed, to retrrn a borrowed umbrella in the glare of a bright suu.

MRS. TILLOTSON, a New Jersey imitator of Dr. Mary Walker, except that she wears gray instead of black trowsers, recently gave a local newspaper some new ideas on tbe subject of dress reform—otherwise breeches. She says tbe notion of bifurcated feminine attire was a direct angelis revelation flashed into the mind of Mr. John H. Noyes, a member of tbe Oneida community. This intimation is of value to theologians and painters of celestial subjects, as affording a bint as to the usual, every-day dress of the average feminine angel.

CLARA REIN MA NN.

On Wednesday evening of next week, this young and promising songstresa will appear at the Upera House, assisted by Prof. Paul Bahr, the pianist, Ora Pierson, of Indianapolis, Miss Flora Sage, Messrs. Alder, Lorey, and Kloer, of this city, and the Terre Haute Msennerchor under the direction of Prof. Shide. Tbe programme will be found In another column. Of Miss Relnmann, the Indiana Nightingale," the Berlin correspondent of tbe New York Musical Gazette writes: "Yet suffering from the effects of tbe beat, which I had to endure on last Friday evening on occasion of tbe performance of "Lohengrin." I cannot avoid to remember with great delight andI positive enjovment tbe first essay of our country girl, Clara Relnmann, as'Elsa.' I am far from praising her unconditionally but the total Impression was so favorable, that all fears in respeot to tbe

future of the young girl were entire!v suppressed. Miss Relnmann boldly took bold of the task allotted to her, and, taking abroad view of tbe part, the execution was a complete success. Though the lyrical momenta were the most prominent and effective, she must be admired on tbe other side for the power and energy of spirit, with which she rasped the dramatic traits, endeavorfng with her utmost to bring them to

such divine qualities tbe Interest of the crowded house inclined In such a high 'decree and with such vociferous acknowledgements towards the fair young artist."

MR. BEECHES WAN MS MORE STILLNESS. "Wp hear much of one word nowadays," said Mr. Beecher at Plymouth Church, "and that is'work.' Mr. Moody gives voice to his sentiment when he says so often, 'Be converted, become Christians, and then go to wc/k." Well, I say so too. But there are many ways of working besides praying, and exhorting, and mission working. In domestic lire, in daily business relations, there is ns much occasion for Christian work, as in more distinctive church work, gbod as this is. Nor can a man excel in all directions. It takes a pretty stout ship to stand the firing of its whole battery of guns at once. It takes a moral giant to oe able to fire at once all tbe guns of rectitude and justice, and keep them firing without suffering from the recoil. Some men are eloquent and soma dumb, let the eloquent talk and the dumb be still. Moonlight is not strong enough for our daily work, but it is strong enough for lovers' vows. The loudest noises in the world are made by things that do no work— the thunder, tbe waves of the sea, tbe roaring wind. But the grass in its growing, tbe leaves as they burst into life, make no noise. The deep hearted, the quiet will yet show the results of their work. We need much inwardness as well as outwardness. We want more stillness in the world.

GUSH ABOUT A SMART WOMAN. The most popular as well as the best paid newspaper writer before the public now, and who is at tbe high tide of success, Is Mary Clemmer Ames, as she was first known. Eleven years ago she began writing for the New York Independent, and it now pays her $30 per week. The Cincinnati Commercial also pays her$30 for every letter she writes for Its columns and besides these regular salaries, she has all the transient work she can do at her own price, and she places no mean estimate upon her pen. She Is one of tbe most thoroughly womanly women I have ever met, ana not at all strong minded. Of medium size, brunette in style, and sparkling in manner and conversation, she exbilerates" and strengthens like a glass of Rhenish wine, or the air of a June morning, redolent with tbe breath of apple blossoms, and musical with the songs of the spring birds. Upon her heart is written with tae indelible pen of fate the story of her sorrows, but they do not ring out In the cheery tones of her voice, or are rewritten on her calm brow, but they have served God's purpose in life, and made her strong aod hopeful, and helpful to other women. Financially she is independent, and owns a beautiful home on Capitol Hill, finished and furnished like a poem. She has no children—never had a child—yet some of the sweetest things she has ever idealized the feelings ot a mother for her child. At her Monday evening receptions the most exclusive society of Washington and many other cities is found.

SENSIBLE PEOPLE. rNew Orleans Picayune. (Dem.)J

Tbe South is not taking much stock in new parties now. It proposes to quit politics—except in so far as is necessary to maintain good government—and go to work. The people are much more anxious about material questions than abstract political ones. Ihey see that tbey have a chance, and they desire to avail themselves of It, and by economy and energy make the most of their opportunity.

A few months ago a Russian peasant and his wife and four children, while traveling in a sleigh along the banks of the Prutb, were pursued by a pack of wolves. The peasant urged on the horses, but soon saw that the wolves were fast gaining upon him. At the moment when the slelgb was surrounded by the ravenous beasts, the man seized one of the children, threw it in the midst of tbem, and while the wolves were struggling over their prey, hastened on his horses and gained ground. Four times the wolves tame up with the fugitives, and four times the horrible sacrifice was completed. At last the peasant and his wife arrived at the nearest village, leaving behind them the bones of their four children. In the bitterness of her despair the mother inform-

resigned be would not only have lost his children, but also his wife, aoqaitted tbe prisoner.
