DISPATCH of sympathy has been sent to Senator MortQn by the President.

The paralysis of the Senator is so severe that he is not able to turn in bis bed.

SENATOR FERRY is out again and has entirely recovered from his illness. It is a good thing. This country has need of a great many such men as Senator Fer*y.

THBY do say that the phrase "the sick man" by which Turkey is known was originated by the Russians. Just now it looks as though Fate despises nicknames.

A LooAxarovt editor says he works eighteen hours per day. That's probably true, but up in Loganaport twothirds of an editor's work consists ia reading upon the works of Milton and 'lb Bret Harte to find choke expietivea to bo buried at his fellow editors.

THE plan to^^oSze a uumter of the unemployed working men of Indianapolis In Mississippi, where white laborers an in great demand isooming to a head. One hundred and ten families have enrolled themselves ss candidates for the oolony and expect to start as soon ss the arrangements for transportation are oompleted.

It seems probable that the Russians will retire from the year's campaign with but small progress. They havo not met with much success so far, the Turks are making desperate elfo to hold the vantage ground they have gained. From Bagdad 85,000 men have been summoned and a general levy has also been ordered. Evidently the march to Constantinople will have to be post poned until' next summer.

A GOOD idea has "struck" the Marshal of Parke oounty. He keeps a scythe which he loans to any citizen willing to cut the dog fennel away from his part of the street. This may be imitated elsewhere. Many persons would like sometimes to cut dowtf the weeds in the street, trim their shade trees, clean out their gutters or level their walks, but having no other use for a scythe or spade they do not keep such tools.

THE conditions for a gradual return of prosperity seem favorable. The crops ot all kinds are unusually large. The European war increases the demand for our wheat across the water, and aids in maintaining prices. Western emigration, it is said, is growing larger, which means that idle men in the thronged cities of the East are going West ,to become producers. Patience and a steady pull will take us through safely.

BRET HARTE wanted the appointment of Minister to China and was heartily supported by the Paclfio slope but Secretary Evarts would not hear of it, remarking that be wanted a man of business at Pekin. Which might lead an outsider to inquire how Mr. Evarts knows that the author of "the Heathen Chinee" is not a man of business. To one who is acquainted with the history of the man's life there is a good deal that suggests an opposite view from that entertained by the Secretary.

THREE thousand people attended the first open air concert given by Theodore Thomas at Cincinnati Monday evening. Next summer, says the Gazette, the grand music hall will be completed, supplied with an organ equal to any in the world, which will be played at regular times, from twice a week to every day. The Cinclnnatians are making enviable progress in art culture in its various phases of music, painting, literature, etc., and their example should stimulate other cities to pursue a similar course. _____________

THE New York Tribune, in noticing the tragio death of J. F. Murphy, who sliot himself in the pirlors of Murray's notorious gambling house recently, observes that the lives of gamblers generally end in Wretchedness and gloom. Nearly all the leading gamblers who have figured In the sporting cl roles of New York for tho last thirty-five years failed to retain their ill-gotten riches and sooner or later sank into abject poverty. Some of them at one time or another were very rich, being estimated as high as a million, dollars but few of them managed to hold on to their money to the last. It left them £oor, forsaken and miserable. Moral: dont gamble.

TH* life of William Culled Bryant, the poet, may truly be said to iM one "of linked sweetness long drawnout." He is now 83 years old and ia stilMn the possession of a health 'and vigor which rarely to 11'to the lot of one so advanoed in yean. Ho talks in a tfttple graceful way to the .Sunday School children and occasionally delivers a temperance address, but has a dislike for great crowds. One of the founders of Amerlosn literature and gaining poetic laurels before twenty which bave ever Since remained green, he has itood before the country honored ^respected and loved as few men hayebeen. ^rya|t can hardly be aoeorded the rank of genius, but there is something so pure, graceful and tender l|k the man that lfe Wins and delights everyone. His mimory will be a green one for many a year after he has" wrapped the drapery of his couch about him and Uiy down to pleasant dreams."

*»mGQQDY-GOOD¥ A.T TIMES. One of our exchanges comes tons with this ss a standing head: "Thoughts for Sunday A Light Spread of Wisdom for the Seriously Inclined." Under this head the editor places the condensations of tho thoughts and utterances of the moral philosopher*, which circulate in th* press.

It is in this manner that not this editor alone, bat many people, of all grades of tntelUgsnoi^ taaat the sayings of the good and the wise the rich fruit of the lahon of master minds the golden words which saaoMo the heart and build up human character. Tbey seem to think theii aphorisms are to belaid •side for Swsday reading, and that the awrage man need no« pay attention to them exeaft when ho ia wearinghis Sun-day-go-to-Bee»ing coaU

Again, that phratc: •'Tbeserioualy indined" is a hateful implication that it embraces only one email claiif and that other people are never "seriously inclined.*? But the msn who hss frith in humanity will never coincide with this. That person is an exceptional case who never baa moments when he is "seriously inclined." We are so constituted that when the excitement and stimulus of the daily rush are over, and solitude oomeswith jthe evening hbnfi, every one of na is "seriously inclined/' If he only •Uofrs'himself to be. At such times if at no others, the crystallised utterances Of wise men have their peculiar force.

THE SECRET OF FAME AND WEALTH. Olive Logan tells, in one of her letters, how Worth, the now rich and famous dressmakerjpf Paris, made his fortune. She khew k&D, she says, when be was a poor boy,-* petty dark in an old establiahed ladMfs' outfitting^ house is Paris. Limited enough his scope, it would seem. Yet.be wdtked with-such euthusiasm and displayed such finer taste that ladies of high rank began to desire his attendance when they visited the house. When he left the establishment after a long employment there, and which had a flourishing trade long before he was born, he carried the bulk of the business with him, The secret of the man's success was the high standard it which he aimed. He saw that there was art in the making of a lady's dress just ss well as in the painting of a fine picture and he determined to achieve the highest excellence that was attainable.

The man's life stands for a lesson and monition. Genuine suocess in any field be it what it may, means the attainment of excellence. Better stand foiemost as a shoemaker than hindmost aa a preacher or lawyer. So a man ranks high it is of no great oonsequftnoe what his vocation is. On all hands there Is a princely remuneration for genius, whether it De the genius of the shop or the rostrum. Some are alwaya complaining that the times are dull, that work lags, that they are making nothing. Well, the trouble is they are outranked—too many better men above them. In flush times, when there is an avalanche of business and everyone's hands sre full, they do well enough they catch what runs through the hands above them. But when the torrent diminishes to a small atresia it is mostly caught up above.

Excellence, superiority, thai is the watchword. The man has a future before him who seeks to be more competent and skillful each day than he was the day previous. But woe to him who ia satisfied with mediocrity who grows to the size of a sapling and stands still forever after. The measure of his appreciation will be small, as it deserves to be. Here is a lesson the young men of this country have to learn and each year there is more urgent need of its learning, for ss the oountry becomes older and richer the desire for honest, thorough, airHi fni work growa stronger and more general. ^People don't mind paying well for a good thing

A WRONGED BACE.

Hon. A.B.Meacham, ex-oommissioner of the U. S. to the Modocs and other tribes of the #«Mtei4i Idfliaiis, lectured last Sunday «v^ng'ott«ateno|yMethodist Church to a large audience. The object of the gentleman is to combat a prejudiced public sentiment in behalf of the aboriginal Inhabitants of America, and speak in fovor of the policy of dealing with them on humane and just principles.

The speaker gave hia viewe aa the results of an experience of more than thirty years spent among the tribes. He speaks not by the authority of the government or of any institution o* society, but from his own eaWfsfc^onviftions of the necessity of.inlo^ns^ itoierican people of" the deep have been perpetrated against an originally innooent race, by tte^mat •astewof this continent. He thought tin hardships which suflwred gave bim aright which no other posseess to sftsak on tba subject. He attributed them" to the wrongs of the red man by the white. He attributed the warr, the bloodabed, the revenges, the misery, the murders committed from time to time by the

to the provocation caused them by the white people. I We need notgo IhtoihadetsJls of the lecture of Mr. Meaoham, or remark upon ita merits as descriptive of aome of the moat interesting traits and traditions of the Indians *but it is for the American people to heed the mandates of outraged justice. Aa the lecturer remarked, the same God who cursed the land of slavery with ita own retribution, watches over tho destinies of a sooutgsd and driven and cheated people.

Who are these Indiana? They are "for the moat part Utieviah, drunken, debauched muidotom.

Who were they? Tbey were a race of the happieat beings on earth, nndellod with a debasing civilisation. Among all the dwellers on this continent such a thing aa intoxication was unknown. Blasphemy was something with which they WOTS unacquainted. Tho viet which to killing Ibe American people to-

d*y—priatltution—waa never brought among tbem until the "higher enlight•nment" came.

We are aocuttomed to regard the Indian ss the personification of treachery. Where did he learn it? Was there ever a pledge or treaty made by the white people or by their government that was not sooner or later broken Did ever the white man regard hia word when hia aelfiab interests induced him toward doing otherwise? On the other hand, did the Indiana ever break a treaty except tbey bad first au example from the other aide?

To begin an enumeration of the wrongs ot the Indians would be an allday task. These have been too numerous for mention. They have received all the curses of dvilisstion with none of tho advantages of a sheltering Christianity. They are now a broken and helpleea raoe, not aaking charity, but justice. The government is from the sentiment of the people. Then let the sentiment of the people be in favor of a course in which the Indian shall be treated with justice, as sny other man as a member of a common humanity. so

THE WIRES.

The announcement has been made that the Western Union Telegraph Company and the Atlantic and Pacific Company have decided to pool their earnings. This will doubtless be sn end to the war between them, and, as some think, it is possible that with the control which they together have they will agree lo advance the prices. But this can not become a very burdensome monopoly upon business interests generally, for thst would create a danger to these companies In the way of competition from other sources. It does not require so much money to build a telegraph line and maintain It as it does to construct and manage a railroad. There are no heavy grades to cut down, no heavy iron rails to lay, no ponderous rolling stock to purchsse and keep in order. Consequently other companies can easily be formed, at least to connect the principal cities, In case this combination gives Indication of becoming troublesome. However, these very reasons have operated to prevent competition in the erection of new lines, by operating as a standing warning to the ^Vestern Union. Consequently that line hss maintained itself from such difficulties by moderate charges. Therefore the managers will not be likely to kill their goose by raising the present reasonable rates.

By the way, it seems singular that telegraph wires are not used more extensively and for other purposes than those in which tbey are at preaent. No oubt, now that small batteries are made and sold at low rates, all in working order, tbey will be far more frequently employed when the people become aware of their great convenience and bow easily their use may be acquired, in the sending of messages of any kind. Most people look upon the whole business as a great mystery but the rudiments of telegraphing, sufficient for many useful purposes, are quite simple and learned with surprising froility.

Police telegraph wires on anew plan are lately being placed in Chicago. A code of a few simple little signals was agreed upon, each having a stated meaning. But a difficulty arose, because the policemen at onoe said they couldn't work it. ./"What did tbey know about telegraphing? they were not operators." To this the newspapers replied with ridcule, saying that the dullest' person could in an hour's practioe learn all about it thoroughly as there used.

To be sure, one can not beoonje an expert operator in a little time, ito do ao requires a term of constant and regnlar study and those operators who are so skillful as to interpret the clicks fsst enough to take tira press report ,become so only after years of prsctloe. %ot the facility required for the transmission of the transient messages from factory to office, from residence to store, from ware house to bank and mill, Is not a matter of such difficulty that it should offset the great usefulness and savingpf time which local and private lines would af-

THE EN AMY IN THE AIR. Each anooseding yfear Is popularly characterised as the one in which "we have not bad ao muck malarial disease among us for ten yearn as at preaent," The oldest inhabitant "can't remember whan.it sraa ao aickly and the youngeat turns up his little toes, a victim to gnsenepptaend tbeanmnrer complaint.

Tnefoctia men trust too mooh to an over-ruling *speeial Providence' in some things and not enough in otbeis. Tbey never can believe that when they do their level best and then trust to God for the rest that it will come out all righti hat tbey oooliy place their livee sad the Uvea of their ohlldren in the hands of fate even when they have not taken proper precaution on their own account, it ia better to follow the advice of the man whoae oomrade was aboat to loose his camel and commit it to Allah, and told him he ought to tie his camel and eommltit to Al*ah.

What wo are driving ^ttslbat our people do not devote enough effort toward keeping off malarial disease by constructing a greater number of sewers and dratnsand ditehea. They work and live in the close vicinity of miniature ewaanpat stagnant ponds, fever breeding holea and peatUentiai alMghe. There ia hardly a deeantly kept alley in the dty. Indeed, the alley is uaaaUy made to anawor the psurpoaeaof aaewer. The handaome fronts of business blocks ars the whited acpukhiee that ooneeal behind them dene of pollution. Thedepoaits of half a oratory remain within short diataneea of tho gayly decorated trading boom where mankind go and coma.

People eleep and eat and livo in amell ing dtotanoe of barreled and buxed slops, and are eontent if the stuff is placed outride the rooms which tbey Inhabit.

In the country, thinga are juat as bad, except that they are- aomewbat different. Ponds of miasmatic waters lie in dangeroua silence below the concealment of the ruahee, lading thebreese with the germa of fevers, and aupplying the air with enough fever'n ager to the square yard to shake the population of London and to impoverish Peru of its quinine for a thousand years.

The remedy for all this Is to construct sewers in the cities and dig ditches in the oountry. Moreover, the lssy indifference with which people forbear to have refuse matter carted away must be coin batted with stringently enforced ordinances.

«.*

The money that tfie people of this vicinity spend in trips to the north "for the benefit of their health" would in a few years be sufficient to thoroughly drain the entire city with sewers. It would psy for ditching those horrible sloughs west of the river. It would give us our beslth here at homo.

W.S.RYCE.

The funeral of W. S. Ryce occurred on Wednesdsy, from the residence of Lucius Ryce, on Ohio street. The corpse had been brought from Grand Haven. Rev. S. S. Martyn officiated in the memorial services, having come purposely from Wisconsin at the request of the parents of the deceased. The employes of the two stores in which Mr. Ryce had been in business,^attended in a body. Notwithatanding^the inclement weather, the services were largely attended. The remains were interred In he it

The following tribute to the memory of the deceased has been written for The M&il by a friend:

Mr. Ryoe's death, occurring as It does in meridian of his manhood, and while in tbo full tide of his business success, is not merely a sad bereavement to his family, and immediate friends, but In many respects it may be regarded as a public calamity, and a loss affecting oar entire oommunity. For more than twenty years he has been a leading business man among us, closely^ identified with the mercantile trade of this oity, and contributing as much to give tone end character to our.business interests, both at home and abroad „aS any gentleman In the city. No class of citizens exercise a greater influence in building up the character of a city abroad than iu merchants. It baa long been well known that the merohanta of no West"* era city stand higher among the wholeSale dealers of the East than have the merohanta and business men of Terre Haute, for integrity, honesty and promptness in meeting their just obligations, and it can be well said of Mr. Ryce that no one contributed more in eatabllsbing this high .chsraoter for our our mercantile oommunity, in the East, than he did. To fulfill and dischsrge to a puactillio, all hia business obligations, waa with him, part of bis religion. The Writer happens to know that among the wholesale merchanta of New York, and other eastern cities, Mr. Ryoe waa probably more widely and favorably known than any merchant in this State, and among them he waa regarded aa the best merchant in Indiana, like hia respected father, he was the beau-ideal of an accompliahed merchant, oombinlng in an eminent degree, rare executive capacity, with strict business integrity. By his employes he was loved and honored, by hia customers be was respected, by all he waa esteemed. None, questioned bis word—that was as good aa any man's bond. While be was industrious and indefrtigable in bis own interests, he never was .mean apirited or Illiberal, and in the aharpeat rivalry of trade, be never sought to undermine or injure a business antagonist, In fact he loved and courted honest competition. As a citizen he waa liberal, energetic, and public spirited, taking a deep interest in the growth and proaperity of our dty. He was a Terre-Hautean, in everything, except in. the accident of birth. With hia frienda he was genial, warm hearted and Companionable—few bad a larger circle—and by them his loss will long be felt. To bis honored father be was a devoted aon, and no son could boast of a more devoted father, but he waa a man in whose life the public has an interest, and his untimely death will leave a vacuum in business circles that wtyl not soon be filled. No man with hia many virtues of mind and heart, can soon be forgottenin our midst, M.
