Dr. Bei'jumn Newland, one of the most prominent ci tizenrf of Lawrence county, died at Bedford on the 5th mst., aged sixty-eight. He was well known throughout the state in both political and social circles. He was a bngadiei'-geneial in ihe state militia in 1S31 and 1852. He represented Lawrence county in the state senate, and was one of the most prominent Democrats in his congressional district. He entered the service during the war as surgeon of the Twenty-second Indiana regiment and rose to division surgeon of Geu. Jeff. G. Davis division. He had also served as president of the state medical association and was recognized as one of the most prominent physicians of the state.' He was the father of Mrs. James H. Wiliard. His death was the sequence of a stroke of paralysis. The funeral took place Mouday. A dispatch from Indianapolis says: The embarrassment over the fail

ure of the Loan Bill is already being widely felt by the State institutions. The ordinary expenses might be met but the biggest bills are extraordinary. Some of the institutions had procured plans and had begun work under the provisions of the appropriations made for improvements. These have been brought to a summary stand by the developments. It is proposed by some of those who will suffer most by the failure to

procure money to join in a petition to the governor to call an extra session. They cite the fact that Governor Williams once sailed a session after having first pledged a majority of the members of both Houses to adjourn at the end of thirteen days. That session was called to nrocure a
