DURING the year ending June 80,18S0, 457,243 immigrants arrived in this oountry. During the year 1873, tke year of greatest immigration, the number was 459,808. The year ending with next June will in alt probability exceed either of these, judging from present indications.

LBT us hope that the day when fraud in elections and census returns can be covered up aud bidden from the sight of the people in this country has gone by. We believe It ha« and that such offorts aro bound to be exposed sooner or later to tho satisfaction of fair minded people.

JOHN T. RAYMOND'S "Colonel Sellers** was a flat failure ft* London. He says the people tried bard to understand and appreciate it but they oouldn't do It. They treated him delightfully though off the stage and be has nothing but kind words for them. McKee Rankin and Haverly he reports are enjoying an immense success in England.

JoaiAH GWIN, editor of the New Albany Ledger-Standard, has brought suit tor libel against oertaln parties for publishing and circulating a libelous pamphlet reflecting odium upon him. It is said to grow out of bis strenuoua opposition to Mr. Landers, and to be secretly Inspired by certain Democrats of New Albany and Indianapolis. Mr. Gwin proposes to make it as hot lor the parties implicated as the Grubbs libel law will permit.

A CARVFOL writer in the Cincinnati Gasstte, reviewing the Congressional districts in Indiana, says the Republicans are morally certain of carrying the Sixth, Eighth, Ninth, Tenth and Eleventh districts, while in the Seventh and Thirteenth their chances are at least equal to whose of the Democrat*. The First and Twelfth districts are doubtful ground and the rest Democratic, Hie Congressional delegation from this State now stands six Republicans, six Demo* crate and one Graenhacker.

FROM the fourth city la site in the Union In 1870, St. Louis has fallen to the seventh in 1880. Chicago oomee up from the fifth to the fourth, and Boston from the seventh to the fifth.

Aw exchange, commenting on the growing tendency of our young people, particularly those who have bad superior advantages of education, to shun the mechanical industrial pursuits, urgea strenuously tbat more attention be given in our public schools to inculcating right ideas of the dignity of physical labor. The writer commends anew departure taken in this direction by the Superintendent of Schools in San Francisco who has issued a circular to the teachers under his charge "earnestly inviting them to make it a constant study to instil into the minds of pupils the dignity of Jiabor to impress upon them tbat labor is honorable and praiseworthy, tbat happiness depends largely upon employment, and indolence surely leads to misery." This is well, of course, and to be commended, but afterall we question if family training has not more to do with the matter than what may be taught in the public schools. As long ss the parents at home lay out tbat John shall be a lawyer, Jack, a preacher, and Tom, a something else, all the schools in Christendom can't help their follow ing the professions planned for them. If fathers who have followed and are following the avocations of farming, building, merchandizing, or what not, would teach their sons the wisdom of following in the ways they have trod, instead of rushing into the learned professions, so-called, which can only offer them struggle and starvation, at least for many years, a great deal could be done towards stemming the furions tide in this direction. Let the schools do all tbeycan In the way of ennobling manual employment but let us not forget to inculcate the same doctrine in our homes. •iv-

IT is universally conceded, we beilove, except by the party organs, tbat Indiana is a doubtful State and that it may be carried in October by either party. This is understood to be the private opinion both of leading Democrats and Republl cans yet, to read the organs of the two parties it would seem to be perfectly clear that both parties bad a sure thing of carrying the State. The Sentinel and Journal aro both filled dally with proofs from all parts of the State tbat must convince their readers beyond a doubt of the sucoess of their respective parties. The trouble is that the information which tbey give their readers is not reliable, It is colored by correspondents and editors to suit their views and support their own side, This has always been the method of the partisan paper and probably always be. And yet is questionable whether this kind of journalism helps their cause. It is of the same kind with the torch light processions which are a* long, as noisy and as useless on one side as the other. They make no votes and neither does the wholesale misrepresentation of one party's meetings, enthusiasm, organization, etc., by the other. It is a practice which admits

understand tbat they can't believe what their papers tell them and they don't pretend to do it.

Tax distress in Western Kansas caused by drought and failure of crops is reported as becoming very serious. In some counties it is feared there will soon be actual starvation unless adequate measures for relief are taken. When it Is remembered that thousands of people, in destitute circumstances, are to be provided for, not only for the preeent, but throughout the ensuing winter and until another crop can be raised, It will be manifest that tbe problem is quite a serious one. Kansas has made vigorous efforts to take care of her own poor, without oalllng for aid from sister States, but it Is doubtful whether she will be able to do this much longer.

THK Indianapolis Newt, which is an independent paper, pithily sums up the political situation by saying that when we can get abetter party than the Republican It wtu advocate its elevation to power.

TERRE HAUTE SATURDAY EVENING MAIL.

THB papers, legal and lay, are discussing pleasantly the points of a novel lawsuit which is said to be pending at Newborn, N. C. A Miss Walters, it is said, agreed with Mr. Finch, a jeweler, to give him one kiss daily for one hundred consecutive days, in consideration of his delivering to her a set of jewelry which she coveted. The'jewelry was delivered and the kisses, to the number of thirty, given, when Mr. Finch complained that the kisses furnished were not up to the standard, Miss Walters allowed him to kiss her cheek only, while the jeweler claimed the right to put his arm round ber waist and kiss her on the lips. This the young lady refused and .Mr. Finch brought suit for breach of contract. Among the points to be decided are: What constitutes a kiss in the eye of the law the distinction between an active and a passive kiss whether a kiss can constitute a valid consideration, etc. If this case is not a fiction there is evidently fun ahead for the people of Newborn.

ABOUT WOMEN.

Any girl with a dowry ot 150,000 has a nice figure. Some women were evidently born to blush unseen—at least they are never seen to blush.

Mrs. Swan, of Lafayette, Ind., a devout Roman Catholic, killed herself because her son married a Protestant.

Dr. Msry Walker is among the White mountains, where her costume is shown to be eminently adapted to climbing.

Man is a gudgeon, woman is the line, her smile the float, her kiss the bait. Love is the hoolc, and marriage the frying pan.

Mrs. Hutchinson threatened, at Sligo, Ohio to do something that would "make Oscar feel right bad." Oscar was ber husbsnd, and they had quarreled. Tbat night she eloped with a negro neighbor.

When a boy falls down and knocks the skin off his nose, the first thing he does is to get up and yell. When a girl tumbles and hurts herself badly, the first thing she does is to get up ^nd look at her dress.

A girl just returned to Hannibal, Mo., from a Boston High Sehool said, upon seeing afire engine work: "Who. would eva have dweamed such a very diminutive looking apawatus would bold so much wattab 1"

Since the introduction of female postmasters, a girl goes up to the window and says:—"Is there a lettor for Miss Margaret Robinson "Yes," says tho female post-master, "here la one from John McJones."

If some one would successfully start the report that ice cream spoiled the complexion and made women bowlegged, it would be thousands of dollars in the pockets of the poor but love stricken young men.

Martha Washington was no doubt a very nice sort of person, or she would never have won the love of our George but she was dreadfully off in her orthography. Mrs. J.

An educated white girl, aged seven teen, married a full blooded negro, aged forty, at Allegheny, Pa. Her relatives endeavored to cause a separation, but she would not at that time part from her husband, who waa a well behaved, in teUfagent man. However, after a year of matrimony, she has voluntarily severed the connection by elopement. Her second choice Is a mulatto.

Mrs. Susan J. Henry, widow of the late Captain Patlok Henry, last surviv Ing grandson of Patrick Henry, of revolutionary fame, died a few daya ago in Washington. Mrs. Henry inherited property which she lost during the war. For a number of yean she was a clerk in the treasury department, and at the time of ber death bad just received an appointment in the agricultural department.

Mrs. Croes (George Eliot) has separated herself entirely from her past life. Before her marriage with Mr. Cross she destroyed every scrap of clothing ororaa-* ment that belonged to her life with Mr. Lewes. Her trousseau waa a very large one.

A lady being asked why plain girls often get married sooner than handsome ones, replied that it was "owing, mainly to tbe tact of the girls, and tbe vanity and want of tact on the part of men." "How do you make that out?" asked a gentleman. "In this way," answered the lady "the plain girle flatter tbe men and so please their vsnity while tbe handsome oues wait to be flattered by the man, who has not the tact to do it." "She dresses quietly," is the comment of one of the fashionable journals on a well-known belle. It is an absurdity. When a woman dresses there is more rattling rot^d of shoes and corsets, and banging around of wash bowls and pitchers, and calling for this and that, and slamming doors and breaking off bureau knobs, and—and—and we have often wondered how tbe lAirrors stoed it so well.

CROP REPORTS. Boston Transcript.

A general survey for the whole country shows tbat the crop of campaign lies will be an abundant one this season. In Maine, a goodly portion of last year's stock remains on nand to make up for any lack in the approaching harvest. In tbe Southern States, very little acreage has been put down, the market being abundantly supplied from the north, and as such things are looked upon as a luxury rather than a necessity in the shot gun tier, tbe demand below Mason and Dixon's line may prove less than heretofore. New York promises a full crop, while Pennsylvania Ohio and Illinois follow in the order named. Tbe District of Columbia has been chosen as a distributing centre, the long experience of dealers there peculiarly fitting it for the office.

Tbe truth crop is fair to average, but so mixed with saccharine sentimentality as to be next to worthless.

The yield of verbosity this year will be surprisingly large, but that of credulity shows a corresponding failing off.

The suioide crop has been somewhat affooted by the drouth, but with plentiful rains it is thought tbat the number of drownings will gradually increase.

Tbe hop and malt crops, in liquid form, are large, but fears are expressed tbat there will be a famine before election is over. Grain dealers, however, still keep their spirits, and the fears may be baseless.

Should tbe whiskey yield largely fall off, it is apprehended that .the crop of murderers the coming fall and winter would show a large falling off. However, tbe grain looks well at present, and everybody is hoping for tbe best.

The newspaper clip will be tremendous between this and November, and there will be more scissors than wheat ground, tho knowing ones *ay.

Tbe lawyer harvest will be largely

good prices. Middling to poor will be neglected more than ever. Scions ot old family timber shows signs of decay, and mudsills are looking up in consequence.

Honors along the obampion belt hSve a withered loolr. The beat yield is fully up to the aver age. This has long been looked on as a safe crop.

Cabbage heads will command a good price at election time. Tbe yield is inexhaustible.

The chicken's crop is a full one. Indian oorn (or corned Indian) promises well. Several loads of whiskey have been sent ever the frontier.

Hair raising on the plains will soon be quite lively. The city oorn crop Is the sole dependence of tbe chiropodist. By jndiotous pruning, tbe old stock is perennial.

The barber's crops are rather short, owing to the extreme beat. Colored barbers report the wool clip abundant.

The clip of the ooin-debaaer increases with the dust, and wet weather haa no dampening effect upon it.

The pea crop is looking up, but crop peas lie down. Iron is the foremost smong tbe staplea. Staples are generally made of it.

Tbe acreage of teara sown tn small boys' trousers has increased wonderfully since the beginning of vacation.

Wild oata are oown broadcast. There appears no failing off In this branch of farming.

Rye is running down fast. Clover is plentiful at the beaches where people are living in it.

The young ladies there are studying husbandry, Tbe crop o* grievances Is as abundant aa ever. in

A NKW SPOT FOR AUTOORAP3S.

The New York San reports a new Idea among sentimental couples at the seashore and summer resorts. Some belle with a pretty foot set tbe example by devoting tbe sole o#ber shoe as the place to be devoted to tbe autographs of her admirers. The lady grasps something—sometimes tbe shoulder of the young man—to steady herself, snd then coolly holds her foot bottom upwards while he tickles her soul with the point of his pencil. This Is great sport, especially to the beholden, mid does no harm, as the writing wears off In tbe next waltz, and Is ready for some other fellow. The custom Is enoou raged by the girls with little feet, but those who are not so fortunate are sometimes rebuked. An incident at Long Branch Is aa instance. «ie was standing poised against the wall of tbe corridor, with tbe spacious sole of ber shoe spread out before an enormoua swain who had his pencil thoroughly suspended. Her hardened brother came along. "Put on tbe Declaration of IndepewfonoSw" ha aald

"There's

LADIES' DRESQ

KXPEN8IVENE8SIN EVENING TOILET INDIVIDUALITY IN DRESS,

New York Letter In Boston Gazette. Handsome simplicity is the vogue for street drees, but In tbe evening women dress as extravagantly as ever. Our large dry goods houses import fabrics of exquisite design and fabulous price that never see their counters, but aredlslayed in gaslit rooms and sold on sight, asked Mr. John Warren, of Lord A Taylor's who is one of tho best informed men in tbe dry goods business, if be thought women cared any less for dress nowadays than they did some time ago. He assnred me "yes" and "no." "They care less for street display and more for evening toilets," he explained. Then he took me into a back room and showed me some goods tbat he said were never nut on tbe shelves. The handsomest I saw was a small sample of fabric which is yet new in Paris. The figures were autumn leaves, and tbey were raised a quarter of an inch high. An artist could enjoy such as enthusiastically as a dressmaker. Eighteen dollars a yard was tbe modest price, and Mr. warren assured me that it would no Booner be seen than snapped up. Tsere are any number of women of wealth who lie in wait for novelties in dress goods as eagerly as some men lie in wait for the old furniture at Sypher's. Shopping has almost been reduced to a fine art, and certainly, now tbat combinations are tbe rage, a well dressed woman must have an eye for color, unless she leaves that part of her dress-to the mantua maker. Individuality in dress was never more fashionable than at present. A woman can wear almost what she pleases. And in Englaud she makes the most of ber opportunity. Miss Maud Morgan, tbe young harpist, is tbe only person I know of in America who wears a Greek oostume, but that style of dress Is quite common in England. Women who "lace" are the exoeption nowadays, and large waists are the fashion, and many women disoard the corset altogether. There are, however, few figures that can stand this. The majority of women are apt to look "sloppy" without something of that sort to bold them together.

I am afraid it will be a long time before all women will have the courage to wear broad soled, flat heeled boots. They like to see their feet look small, even at the cost of comfort. I admit that a snugly shod foot Is pretty, but it is not worth tbe cost. I saw a family of well dressed oblldren, from tbe sgee of eight to sixteen, on the Staten Island boat, tbe other day, and I noticed that they all wore shoes that were big enough for them, and that their heels were low and broad. How much more sensible than if their poor feet bad been squeezed into French heeled boots 1 What child could run and play In French heels? Yet bow many are made to suffer with these monstrosities! All French women can wear them, but Amerioan women do not take naturally to them. I have seen some actresses on our boards fairly hobbling on their Frenoh heels. On the stage, I suppose, they are admissible, for the feet are apt to show, and few actresses would be willing to display abroad sole.

LADIES lovo to shop there, gentlemen are sure to purchase there, prudent mammas always stop there, and pros perotls papas want their wives to buy there. In fact everybody through the oountry aud in the town buy tbeir DomMUm, Ginghams, Calicos, Table Llneni, Towels and Napkins, Shirting, Jeans, Tweeds and Waterproofs, Drees goods, Fringes, Trimmings, Corsets, Gloves and all kinds of Staple and fancy Notions at the Buckeye Cash Store 601, 003 snd 605 Main street, where they have the finest soods, the largest stocks, and the lowest prices, knowing tbat tbey save money in buying where they sell in large or small quantities every artlole at tbe lowest wholesale prices. This live house solicits comparison with wholesale prices either in this city or elsewhere. Especial attention is called to tbe very fine assortment of Black Cashmeres, Silks, Velvets and Alpaoas just received. Also new patterns in single width. Dress goods in a great variety of styles. To see tbeir large and well selected stock of Ladles', Gents', Misses' and obildrens' hosiery is only to purchsse and carry away what you need. Tbey lead the corset trade with over fifty different styles of the very best qualities, made at prices that defy competition, with every corset wsrranted Tbe new fall and winter s^les In Butterick's patterns are expected this week
