IMUAN.l STATE KEWS. ! On the KHh tilt, a drummer for an E«'t- , cm house stopped in Lafayette, and, preI suminjc on Ids arquaintaure with a fellowman of the road whom ho supposed would j be ahaent from the city, he called at his house. Finding the husband at home, he left, but during the afternoon he sent around a note addressed to the wife, in ; which, it is alleged, he made a base proposition and inclosed money to pay passage to a neighboring city, with a request to meet him there. The note fell into the hands of the husband, and he very Justly became hotter than Congressman Orth’s lime-kiln. Ue went on the war-path. The impudent drummer was invited to his house, and told to call in the evening. Fool-like, he went! The husband locked the door, and then proceeded to administer one of the most thorough, if not arti-tie, pummelings that any drummer ever got. That cla-s of people are noted for their adamantine cheek, but the husband's fi>t« were loo tough for this one, and be was hammered as tender as n porter-house steak. Then his baggage was sent for, tie was washed up, and told to leave town on the lirst train. He left, and will hardly show up in Lafayette for some

' time.

Over a little altercation at cards a few i nights ago at Kochrster Julius 1’. Micbiels I attempted to shoot 1’aul Dor-cb. The ball went through Michiels’ hand. I.ymau D. Drake, an old and well-known ! ollicer of the State Farm, has disappeared [ very mysteriously, lie started to Indianapolis on the 23d ult. on a hunt for a runaway boy, and nothing has been heard of him since he left I'iainlieid. He is married, and has lived at Plainfield fifteen years. The disappearance has caused no little amount of comment. All efforts to otitain tidings of his w hereabouts have proven fruitless, and it is feared by his friends that he has met with foul play. Adjutant-General Carnahan went to Terre Haute the other day for th» purpose of mustering out the Light Guards, of that city, who have grown tired of being bloody soldiers. This is the first instance on record where a company has been mustered out in the time of peace of their own accord. Adie, daughter of Gus Carter, of New Albany, died a few days since from the effect of having swallowed two nickels. Everything is fearfully dry between Bloomington, HI., and Lafayette. A spark from a passenger engine fell on abridge near Gibson (ity the other night and set fire to it, delaying a train several hours. A wellknown engineer says that for several weeks past he had cot thrown a cigar stump from the engine, but always threw it into the tender or lire-liox, for fear of igniting som»tbing by the roadside. At an early hour ou the morning of the »Oth ult. trains Nos. tirt ami 03 on the Lake Erie & Western Hood ran together near Templeton station, destroying four empty freight ears and doing a good deal of damage to the locomotives. The engineers and firemen hopped off and escaped injury. The drawbars of fifteen cars were broken. Botli trains were running according to instructions, the error being chargeable to the dispatcher, who gave different passing points. A tinsmith of Lafayette, John G. Derr by name, was thrown from his wagon on the IKtth ult., the horse running away, and, falling beneath the wheels, had one or two ribs broken and was injured otherwise in such manner as to cause fears that he w ill not recover. At various points In Clark County, on the line of the railroads, the destruction of properly from railroad locomotive sparks ha-s been very great. Hundreds of yards of fencing and thousands of acres of grass have been burned up in the past few weeks, and, if the drought continues, the destruction will be terrible. Carrie Moynchan, of Logansport, aged thirteen, has an insane desire to kill herself by Jumping beneath every train that passes her mother’s door. Her mind-trouble dates from the tit.ie of the killing of her brother in a railroad accident some months ago. ! A determined attempt to commit suicide j was recently made at Walnut Grove near | Oxford. A young man named Rogers, from Ohio, employed ou the farm of I. Horn, 1 procured a large knife, and, going out into the burn-loft, drew the keen edge across 1 his'throat, cutting a horrible gap. The knife dropping from his hands slipped through a erack In the floor. Fearful that he had been baffled in his attempt, he In- . eerted his fingers Into the gaping wound ' and endeavored to tear his throat open. Ho was still alive on the Sth, but It was not thought possible for him to recover. No ! cause is assigned. l Squire Cole, of Ambia, lost a new steamthrasber, engine and all, while thrashing a mile south of Oxford a few days ago. lie had taken his men back to town for dinner, and while gone a spark, it is supposed, ; Ignited the straw. Three stacks of wheat were also destroyed. At Evansville on the uth wbiie Ben BuhI ner, aged fourteen, was letting down chairs from the third story of a cliair factory, he was precipitated to the pavement ami killed. At. accident resulting in the death of George Hanna occurred ut Haul) on the 3d, while boring a thirty-four-inch well at that place. The auger had been withdrawn, and Hanna descended the bore to remove a rock at the bottom. While engaged in doing i tills, ids horse, belli'.' loose, backed into the j hole, sliding down the halter, tied to a crosspiece. struggling for about five minutes, j Hanna, aware of his imminent peril, j climbed up a rope till he reached tho horse, but was unable to pass the struggling animal. One man above, excited and unable j to render assistance, saw the halter break | and the horse go down, bearing with him I the unfortunate Hanna, who cried out pitcI ously: “ My G '.1! must 1 die this way?” ) The man and horse were drawn from their position, both dead. At Indianapolis on the evening of the ritb Detectives John McKinney and Eugene Sauley were directed to arrest Henry Todd, a colored desperado who had sought refuge in that city after committing .a number of feloI nies as well as murder, near Sbelbyville, I Ky., some twelve tinmins ago. Todd was found and .a desperate street fight followed, during which he was shot through the arm, leg ami in the head w hile attempting to escape. Officer Saulfy was also severely injured in the melee. Being of herculean strength the nci-ro made a hcroie resistance, and, in addition to the shots, was badly beaten b fore he would surrender. At Indianapolis on the 4th the Sabbath was strictly observed in accordance with the new law. Scarcely a saloon was open, and rv. n cigar-stores and barber-shops were closed. The street-car lines ran as usual, , but the authorities propose to bring suit 1 ami test their right to run under the law.

The stirring times make it necessary for ! Governor Porter to have a military staff, and the following battle-ernfred veteran* have been selected: Robert Emmett, AsI .dstant-Adjutant-General, ranking as t'ol:onel; Dr. John A. Comingore, Surgeon- < ; General, with the same rank; Hugh T. j Heed, of Richmond, Inspector-General, : I ranking as Lieutenant-Colonel; W. It. j Hamilton, of Greencastle, Chief of Artillery, | with the same rank, and James K. Ross, ) Indianapolis, Merrill T. Smiih, Terre Haute, and James T. Biff, Richmond, Aidea-de-Camp. Adjutant-General t'arnahan says every other Governor in the United States has a military staff, aad Indiana should keep up with the procession. It i* understood that the gentlemen named above will represent Indiana’s military heroes at ihe Yorktowu celebration. Twelve to fifteen cows are constantly grazing on the Court-house lawn at Indianapolis, and the tinkle of the cow-bell rei minds tho citizens that Indianapolis still

1 puts on eountrf airs.

Dr. Thomas Frederick Anst, alias Fred | Gibson, who killed his brother-in-law, James Humphreys, at Winslow, Pike Coun- ; ty, on the 11th of last November, lias been * s. ntenced to the Penitentiary for life. The 1 murder was i most cold-blooded one. The Indianapolis grain quotations nre: Wheat—No. 3 Red, t.37'Corn— j No. 3,64<366o. Oats—38(^43c.

Musical Sands. The bekcli known a-s the " Siniyinn;” or the ” Musical Ntinds.” at Manohester, Mass., is said to be one of the finest of the few of its kiud known in the world. Hufch Miller describes one which he visited iu the Hay of Laig, among the Hebrides, and he thought that the third only that had been discovered, one of the other two being in Arabia i’etrea; but another is mentioned near Fort Mucon, in Georgia—a wonderful one on the island of Kanai.one of the Hawaiian group—and still another among the mountains of Switzerland. A gentleman also who is somewhat familiar with geology, and who liar traveled over a Targe part of the Massachusetts coast, says that he has found small patches of tho singing sand on several beaches, a bit at Kockport, at Dana’s, or Grave’s Beach, and on Plum Island, oil Newburyport. He ascribes the sound to some quality in the rocks of the beach, whose crystals, becoming disintegrated and transformed into the sand, give forth that peculiar ring. In the case of the Manchester Beach, the end furthest from Eagle Head is most susceptible, and when tho sand is perfectly dry on the landward side it gives forth a very melodious tone, not unlike the five-pronged sound produced when glasses are struck together, it being especially distinct if the feet are drawn swiftly over it. It seems in some degree electrical, as tho person who thus scrambles through it experiences a certain tingling sensation in the soles of tlie feet. A specimen of this remarkable substance, taken from a bank on tiie island of Kanai, has been received from a friend in Honolulu. The following interesting description of its peculiarity was contained in the letter from tho donor: The bank, which is composed of this sand, commences at a perpendicular bluff at the southwest end of the island, and extends one and a half miles almost due south, parallel with the beach, which is about one hundred yards distant from the base of the sand-bank. This sand-drift is about sixty feet high, and at the extreme south end the angle preserved is as steep as the nature of the sand will permit. Tho bank is constantly extending to the south. It is said, by tho natives, that at the bluff, and along the middle of the bank, the sand is not so sonorous. But at tho extreme south end, and for a half-mile north, if you slap two handfuls together, there is a sound produced like the low hooting of an owl, more or less sharp according as the motion is quick or slow. Sit down ujion the sand and give one hand a quick, circular motion, and the sound is like the heavy bass of a melodion: kneel upon the steep incline. extend the two hands and clasp as much saud as possible, slide rapidly down, carrying all the sand you can, and the sound accumulates as you descend until it is like distant thunder. In this experiment the sound was sufficient to frighten <>ur horses, fastened a short distance from the base of the drift. But the greatest sound we produced was by having one native !!•• upon ids belly, and another take him by- the feet and drag him rapidly down the incline, carrying as much sand as possible with them. With this experiment the sound was torrilic, and could have been heard many hundred yards distant. With all the experiments that were made, it seemed the sound was in proportion to the amount of sand put in motion, with a proportionate velocity. Another consid.’Ritiou seems requisite —that is. its perfect dryness. Tho dry sand would sound on tho surface, whore six inches beneath it was wet; but if any of the wet sand became mingled with the dry, its property of sounding ceased at once. The sand appears to the eye like ordinary beach sand, but ordinary beach sand will not produce tho sounds. It has been said that it will lose its sonorous properties when takenaway from the bank. But l can discover no diminishing of its sonorous qualities, even with the bottle uncorked, and we have had rain frequently, and an atmosphere more than ordinarily moist for this time of year. Perhaps, it exposed to a verydamp atmosphere, it might absorb moisture enough to prevent its sounding.—Cor. Saturday Xight.

The press has often, in terms less severe but sufficiently distinct, reproved tho tendency toward wasteful expenditure at funerals, especially in large cities. Those who are spending their own money cannot, of course, be controljed. But let it be fully understood that expenditure for which an executor or administrator exjmets to be reimbursed from the estate is controlled by law, and must positively be limited to what is economical and prudent.—N.

(iurinl Expenses.

Is there any vocation which is not ! open to woman? In Philadelphia there is a lady undertaker—at least there is a lady who has undertaken to ‘ learn the business.” Sho has been taking lessons in the Orphans’ Court, and a lecture which was read to her by Judge Hanna is interesting, not only to undertakers throughout the country, but also to exe. utnrs and administrators and to heirs ami legatees. A young unmarried woman died, leaving as her estate a share in a dwelling house worth about $700; also, a brother and sister, who naturally were entitled to inherit. An aunt of the deceased with whom she ! had resided conlidetl the arrangements for the funeral to the “lady undertaker” without consulting the brother and sis[ter, or imposing any restrictions on the amount to be expended. On the contrary, sho said: “Ton need not spare ' any expense; for though there is no money now.it will be all right after awhile.” A lavish display was accordjinglymado. But when the bill of the 'undertaker was rendered the brother and sisterobjocted that so much expense was wholly disproportionate to the small amount of the estate. And the Court sustained t he objection, and cut the bill tlown from $351 10 $100. At : last accounts the undertaker was looking for tho aunt with a view to friendly conversation as to payment of the

balance.

But the purpose of the questioning had been gained; the seeming pilgrims had been moving in single tile; it had given them time to come up and form a group. Some of them had put down their poles anti baskets as if to rest themselves. But now the baskets were slipped off, the staves taken in hand, and a rush made on the old man and his sons and servants, who were soon overpowered, and the robbers in possession oi the house, while some kept; guard outside.

The attack is generally made on th« house ot a rich banker or the shop of a jeweler in some small town where the police force is not very strong, or on the house of the rich zemindar (landowner) of a village. One case of the latter kind, which occurred in a village at the time when I was encamped not farfrom it, was managed thus. Tho zemindai was reported to have a large sum of money buried in his house—a common yvuy of keeping it in India, the house being built in the usual Eastern fashion —namely, rpund a central courtyard, entry to which was gained through a
