Blast on Sunday—Why the BepnDl arc in the Minority, AcSpecial Correspondence Crazet

Our new city government came into power last week. Great things were promised of it it was to introduce a Democratic millenium of popular sovereignty. The State Commissioners to which various departments of its city affairs had been assigned, had been condemned for years by exponents of Democratic wrath as usurpations set up by a foreign power, to evade a much abused people and deprive them of the sacred American light of self government. Restore the Democrats to power in the State, they said, they would show how the city can be put in the hands of it's people. They would remove the commissioners, give honest elections, and supply officers who have in view only the interests of the people. The Democrats having the entire State Government last winter, did their work. They did not abolish the Commissions. They put Democrats instead of Republicans on the board, and transferred the naming of them from the Governor and Legislature to the ring who have been swindling and plundering the city for the last 10 years. They have made amendments to the charter .of the city by which the autocratic control of the ring over every branch of the city government is made sure for another ten years.

Though shame it be to say it, the Democrats received Republican aid in the last job. They showed Republican members an election law which they said would pass, "in consideration," which, they promised, would totally and forever abolish repeating, cheating in the courts, and trickery of every kind. The new government was elected under this law. The cheating of the election was never equaled, not even last fall, when it seemed as if the limit of human power in that direction must have been reached. It is too early to predict what the new Board of Aldermen and assistants w4fl£to for us. We can only guess from their composition, that they will be like the board that has preceded them, in which was no good. They consist in all of 36 members. Sixteen are Irishmen, and others are sons of Irishmen, ten are liquor dealers, three are contractors, three are burdened with the care of drawing the salaries of other offices. Not one of them reprsents any real interest of the city or is capable of knowing or sympathizing with the wants or views of its people. They are the ring and will run it. The rule of the state over the city is removed the rule of the people is farther off than ever.

We have also anew excise law, to regulate the sale of intoxicating liquors, and a new Board to execute it. The one it has supplanted, which was a "Republican outrage" of course, was one of the most admirably devised laws ever enacted on the subject. For live years it has kept dram shops closed on Sunday—at least what drinking there was had to be done in a corner—and had preserved peace and sercurity on the streets. This, in the face of the fact that nearly all the Magistrates were opposed to it, and refused to help execute it. Now all this is changed. The gin mills are open on Sunday, at the will of their irrepressible proprietors, and the days of old, when decent people had to stay at home Sunday for fear of being knocked down by rowdies if they stirred out, are returning. Whe ratio of Sunday arrests is rising like the mercury on a hot July day. The result of this change is one of the most potent temperance arguments of the day, and has induced many who were enemies of the late excise law to wish it back again.

Some of our Republican papers have been discussing to discover why the Republican party has fallen into the minority in this State. Cheating at elections does not account for the whole case, for the Republican vote has so fallen off in the Republican districts that the State would be extremely doubtful if there were no Democratic" cheating. Some lay the blame on the party itself, and on its representatives in Congress. They say the party has failed to announce its policy in regard to the questions of the day, but gives its attention too exclusively to questions which ought to have been settled. Likewise, the Congressmen persistently avoid the subjects of finance and revenue reforms, and official reforms, living questions, in which the people are actively interested, and still keep harping on the my daughters of negro suffrage, reconstruction, and matters of thatsoit, which ought to have been carefully wrapped up and put away during the first days of the session, so as to leave the coast clear for the new era.

There may be something in this. People are not apt to go to very near trouble to vote more than to do anything else, unless they may expect to get something they want by it. And they will not rally enthusiastically many times for a party that cries about the old things it has done under a dispensation that is past, while it pays no attention to the new things that are to be done under a dispensation that is present. But there are other things the matter in this State. The chief among them are the hopeless imbe-

cility, and corruption, and jealousy that prevail among the Republican leaders of the city. These are men who run the primaries and make loud speeches, the sole end of whose political existence is to sell out the Republican party to Tammany.

The Tribune this morning publishes a letter with a long list of what its correspondent calls "Tammany Republicans." They are for the most part of the conservative wing of the party. If what the other side says is true, a similar list might be made of members of the Radi-

YORK, JUNE 15.

New Yorkers have acquired the habit of thinking that their city is ie on place worthy of consideration. A\ nen they think of other places, it is with tiie idea that their especial destiny is to pay tribute to New York, or that they are kept up, as Long Branch is, in order that New Yorkers may have a place to go to and amuse themselves. This is vain assumption, but it is a fact that ^ew ork is a very large place—a place of much money. And, since there are more people here than in any other one spot, more must be going on here, and consequently there must be more done here that is worth noticing than in any other particular place.

IN Providence, the other day, a joker engaged and paid five hand-organists to play one hour before the door of a nervous butcher. They despised the offer of the butcher to pay them $1 each to go away, and withstood all his entreaties and threats. Each organ played a different tun£, and the combination was terrific.

TERRE HAUTE DAILY GAZETTE.—We are now in receipt of the Terre Haute Daily GAZETTE, published by Hudson, Brown & Co., and it is but justice to say, that it is among the neatest papers in the State. Its chief editor is Col. Hudson, than whom there are but few, if any, more able and fearless writers in the corps editorial in the State. We trust these gentlemen may continue to us the favor of an exchange.—Rookville Republican. 5

THE lirst number of the Terre Haute Daily GAZETTE was received by us yesterday. It is a handsome paper, neatly gotten up, printed on good paper, and promises to be an interesting reading sheet. R. N. Hudson, C. W. Brown, L. M. Rose, proprietors, all experienced men in the newspaper business. It is Republican in politics. This makes the third daily paper in that city.—Pans Beacon & Blade.

Wednesday we welcomed the Terre Haute Daily GAZETTE to our table—and a good, fine looking new candidate for public favor it is, too.—Mattoon Journal.

NEW PAPER.—We have received the first and second numbers of the GAZETTE, a new evening daily just started at Terre Haute, by Hudson, Brown & Co. It flies the Republican State ticket at the head of its editorial columns, and in the publishers' salutatory, they say "We will write freely and independently, but inside the Republican organization." We must say the GAZETTE is one of the neatest daily papers in the State.—Madison Courier.

WK notifee that L. M. Ro#E^ the former opular and gentlemanly salesman for Snider & McCall, wholesale paper dealers, has become one of the proprietors of the Terre Haute (Ind.) GAZETTE, a daily just started in that city. Mr. Rose is a man of intelligence and a practical printer. The paper is gotten up with ability and taste, and presents a neat and inviting appearance. If Mt. Rose deals as honestly with politics and public questions as he did with his patrons while in the employ of Messrs. Snider and McCall, be need not fear the result of his new enterprise. A number of years ago he came to Sidney a "tramping jour," and worked in the Journal office for some weeks.— Sidney (o.) Journal. wt

TIIE Terre Haute GAZETTE is now issued as a daily evening paper. It is a n««L^^at,ilaudsome sheet, with a full

as an informal opening of the

Fe.st, and to rest the visiting societies. The hall was not crowded, yet the turn out was much larger than was anticipated.

The Hall is a magnificent structure, erected especially for the occasion. It is 2-jOxllO feet, the main audience room being 240x66 feet. The uprights that flank this big space on either side rise in 20 arches to the roof, 76 feet above and from east to west run two galleries two-thirds the length of the building, 18 feet from the floor. The largest gallery is that of the east end—66 feet wide and 110 long. The side aisles are 190 feet long, 22 feet wide, reaching almost up to the grand stand The main hall will accommodate about 10,000, and the galleries about 2,000.

On Thursday everything was done by the Cincinnatians to promote the pleasure of their visitors. A great many attended a picnic on Jackson Hill, and those who did not, enjoyed themselves in the large gardens on Vine and Walnut streets, in the neighborhood of "the Rhine."

There was also a rehearsal at the Hall, to which the public was admitted for 50 cents, and the Hall was pretty well filled.

In the evening, the Grand Opening Concert was given. By 8 o'clock the Hall was completely packed, and from 1,200 to 1,500 could not get in. I heard persons offer $5 for a seat.

On Wednesday evening, the members of the old 32d Regiment had a friendly meeting and reunion at 436 Vine street. Every company was represented. Terre Haute had the honor to have a company in the regiment (E) which was represented by some of its members.

Tlie city is full of strangers, and a fellow is lucky if he can get a bed on the floor of a hotel.

I could mention many things of interest, but I have no time, as I start for Indianapolis at 5:30 P. M.

CINCINNATI, June 16.

The singing at the hall last evening drew an immense concourse of people, estimated at between 6,000 and 7,000. The street in front of the hall, and Washington Park, opposite, were a perfect jam. Crinolines have generally fallen into disuse, or else many a wreck must have remained as an evidence of the great squeeze.

Some of the more enthusiastic Germans returned to their hotels, where the singing was kept up the greater portion of the night, shooting crackers- being fired between the pieces. This might not have been the case at other hotels, but it ivas so at the Oberly House, on the corner of Second and Broadway.

The city has enjoyed more quiet to-day, as the visitors have been "doing" the suburbs. Every hack has been chartered, and the old roadsters that are doomed to a life of hardship and half rations, have been put to their best speed in exhibiting tlie wonders of "Porkopolis."

Down at the bridge the crowd could be seen eager to donate three cents for the privilege of gazing down in'o the muddy fiood from the dizzy span of the great Suspension. The ponderous •machinery of the water works also came in for its share of the sight-seers.

Two men wore observed sitting on the promontory known as Rose Hill, just west of Covington, with an umbrella sheltering them from the blistering rays of the noonday sun. They were gazing upon the tripple cities. Whether one in imitation of a certain gentleman mentioned in tho bible, had taken tho other upon the mount to make him an offer of the goodly inheritance that lay beneath I know not, but the conference was long and earnest.

To-night the hall will again be crowded with people all anxious to see and hear.

What Our Friends Say of Us. TERRE HAUTE DAILY GAZETTE.—We have received several copies of this new daily, and can say, in all truth, that it is oi\e of the most handsomely printed pa pers in the State. The proprietors are gentlemen thoroughly acquainted with the business, have ample experience, and are making an excellent paper that can' help being a success. Ii. N. Hudson was for a long time the proprietor of the Ex press, and, if we remember correctly, was the founder of the daily, while Mr, Brown published the Greencastle Ban tier, and L. M. Rose has also been in the business to a considerable extent. We hope the paper may prosper in every sense of tlie word, for tlie matter and manner is worthy of a liberal patronage. —Bloomjicld Tribune.

THE Daily Evening GAZETTE is the name of a new paper recently started in Terre Haute. We know of no paper in Indiana that presents a neater typographical appearance, and so far as editorial ability is concerned, both leading and local, we are satisfied none can excel it.—Bedford News.

On last Thusday we received the first number of the new T. H. Daily GAZETTE. It is a twenty-eight column paper printed on new type, and presents the neatest typographical appearance of any paper upon our exchange list.

The proprietors, Col. R. N. Hudson, C. W. Brown and L. M. Rose, are experienced men in the newspaper business and intend to exert every muscle to make it one of the best papers published in the State.

The editorials are piquant and lull of sound logical sense. The local department is managed by an old hand at the business who dishes them up warm every evening.

The paper in politics is Republican. We wish tlie proprietors success politically and financially.—Iloosier State.

WE are in receipt of the Terre Haute Evening GAZETTE, published by Messrs. Hudson, Brown & Co. Col. R. N. Hudson, well known as one of the most vigorous writers in the State, is the political editor. The local department is in charge of Mr. S. F. Horrall, late of this paper, The GAZETTE is filled with a valuable miscellany, and is printed in good style. The mechanical execution is unexceptionable.—EvansviUe Courier.

The Terre Haute GAZETTE is now published daily by Hudson, Brown and Rose, and reflects the great business of their city. It is ably conducted, beautifully printed, and has an extensive patronage. Success to all such enterprises.— Vincennes limes.

THE TERRE HAUTE DAILY GAZETTE. —We are in receipt of the Terre Haute Daily GAZETTE, Messrs. Hudson, Brown & Rose, publishers.

Hudson, cditor-in-chief, is an old newspaper man, and thoroughly understands the business of journalism. We hope the GAZETTE may be abundantly successful, politically and financially.— EvansviUe Journal.

NEW DAILY.—The Terre Haute Daily GAZETTE has been received at this office during the last week. This is a new evening paper just started, and bids fair to succeed. It is managea by able and experienced newspaper men, and is thoroughly Republican, but at the same time will assert the independence of the press. We gladly welcome the GAZETTE, and wish it it a long and prosperous career.— Oosport Independent.

The Terre Haute Daily GAZETTE is published by Hudson, Brown & Co. We are in receipt of the first number, and typographically it is one of the neatest papers published in the State. In politics it is radically Radical. Terre Haute now has three daily, and, if we are not mistaken, tour weekly papers, all well filled with advertising, and presenting a most prosperous appearance. We wish the GAZETTE financial success, and cordially welcome it to the field of journalism.— New Albany Ledger.

THE first number of the Terre Haute Daily GAZETTTE (a new evening paper) reached us yesterday. It is a handsomely printed sheet, and edited, locally and otherwise, with spirit and ability. In regard to its political proclivities, the editors say they shall "write freely and independently, but inside the Republican organization." Hudson, Brown & Co., proprietors.—Indianapolis Journal.

THE proprietors of the Terre Haute GAZETTE now issues a daily evening edition of that paper. It is a very handsomely printed sheet, and is edited with ability. We have to acknowledge our indebtedness lor an exchange.—Sullivan Democrat.

Rose, all experienced newspaper men. We predict success for the GAZETTE, as we believe it will deserve it. It starts with a complete outfit of type and presses. A good Republican evening paper in Terre Haute ought to be well supported.—La Fayette Journal.

TERRE HAUTE DAILY GAZETTE.—This is the title of an afternoon paper just commenced in Terre Haute by Hudson, Brown & Co. It is one of the neatest printed, systematically arranged, and uniformly displayed papers we ever saw —in fact, its mechanical execution is par excellence.

Terre Haute now boasts of three daily papers, the Daily GAZETTE being the last introduced, which is edited by Col. R. N. Hudson, an exceedingly clever gentleman, and one thoroughly qualified for the position.—Indianapolis Times.

WE have received the first number of the Terre Haute Daily GAZETTE, the new Republican daily just started in that city. Its general appearance and the evident ability which controls and manages it, will place it at once among the foremost dailies of our State. Although differing widely with the GAZETTE politically, we most heartily wish it every success, and hope it may prove for its proprietors a most profiiable investment. We notice at the head of its columns the name of our old friend Lou. M. Rose. We had hoped for better things from Lou, than abandoning a respectable occupation to become the editor of a newspaper, but as the fatal die is cast, we hope to see him go in and win and know he will, if ability, pluck, energy and the power to win friends, are qualities useful in achieving success.—Seymour Democrat.

We are in receipt of a copy of the Terre Haute Daily GAZETTE one of the handsomest papers on our exchange list. It is a Republican sheet, but of the respectable kind. We wish the enterprise all the success to which it may prove itself entitled.— Vincennes Sun

The Terre Haute Evening GAZETTE made its appearance on Wednesday evening, owned, conducted and controlled by R. N. Hudson, C. W. Brown and L. M. Rose. It presents a beautiful typographical appearance, and no doubt, from the experience and tact of its publishers and editors, that it will prove a success. Among the articles in the first number we notice one on the "immorality of women," which does not speak well for the

gallantry of the accomplished and courteous editor-in-chief.—Ind. Sentinel. WE received the first number of the Terre Haute Daily GAZETTE, anew Repaper published by Hudson, rown & Rose. Mr. Rose was, formerly, traveling agent for the paper house of Snider & Mc Call, of Cincinnati, and is well known to many of our readers as a eleven gentleman.

Death of Jerome Napoleon Bonaparte. The telegraph announces the death of Jerome Napoleon Bonaparte, at the age of 65 years, and the simultaneous death of his mothar-in-law, Mrs. Williams. The parentage of the deceased, and the complication it may yet introduce into the imperial family of France, are the only circumstances that give much interest to his life. His father, Jerome, was the ablest of the first Napoleon's brothers aud longest survived him. When in command of a French frigate in 1803, he came to Baltimore, and fell in love with a Miss Patterson, a noted belle, who set one among the earliest of the pernicious examples of American ladies marrying European titles, by accepting her Corsican adorer, and making a "muss" in the Bonaparte family. The Emperor did not allow any of his brothers to marry at his own will, and he forbade Jerome to land his wife in France. She went to England, where the subject of this notice was born in 1805, and was subsequently divorced, after a fashion that leaves it very uncertain whether the last half of her husband's life was not a case of enforced adultery. The Pope, Pius VII., with a tolerably clear recollection of the imprisonment of his predecessor, was not well disposed towards the Emperor, and his duty reinforced his resentment, so that marriage being then, as it still is, an affair of the church, the divorce was a nullity. But Mrs. Bonaparte never saw her husband again, except once, many years afterwards, when she met him in Florence with his unlawful wife, Frederica of Wurtemburg. She came back to Baltimore, and reared her son there. He married aMiss Williams, formerly of Roxbury, Massachusetts, and had two sons, Jerome and Charles. The former, after graduating at West Point, an serving a short time in our army, went to France, and was given a place in the French army by the present Emperor. The father visited France occasionally, and during the reign of Louis Pliillippe attracted much attention from his resemblance to his uncle. Being very wealthy, both by inheritance and marriage, he did little but attend to his estate, though he was a graduate of Harvard and a member of the bar. His connection with the Imperial family was closer than that of the present prospective heir, Prince Jerome, the husband of Clothilde of Italy, for he was the elder son of a lawful wife, and if by a lawful wife, the Prince is illegitimate, and is excluded both by youth and birth. But Napoleon will hardly allow the ecclesiastical law to force a possible successor to the little Prince Imperial upon him in the shape of a native born American, and the rest of the thrones will hardly trouble themselves much about the purity of the pedigree of a parvenu.

The Rebel Archives.

William L. Stone recently delivered an oration before the Meta Delta Chi fraternity in New York. In the course of his remarks he gave the following bit of information concerning the disposition which was made of the rebel archives at collapse of the rebellion: "On the morning of Mr. Davis's capture," says Mr. Stone, "David Tilghman waited upon him at his bedside, and said, 'Mr. Davis, by this map you may see that the enemy are here, such and such is the situation of the roads. If you come with me you will be able to leave the country in safety. If you do not, you will be captured in five hours.' To Mr. Davis replying, curtly, that he 'knew his own business best,*' Tilghman continued, 'Very well, sir I have been entrusted with the treasure and archives, and propose to secure them, even at the peril of the loss of your favor and my life. I shall start at once by the route I have marked out.'

The result is well known. In less than five hours Mr. Davis was a prisoner, but the archives were safe. When a few weeks after, in the recesses of the forest, Tilghman learned that all was lost, he alone, and with his own hands, buried the treasure and archives, and unless, during the four years that elapsed between hiS parting

Willi

we and his untoward

death, he revealed the spot, the secret as to the whereabouts of the archives is forever buried, and as long as they shall be kept from the ken of man, so long shall the story be a monument to our brother's unswerving fidelity. This is the true history of the archives of the Southern Confederacy, although rumors are from time to time set afloat of their being now in the vaults of this bank, and now of that."

THE Connecticut House of Representatives on Monday elected LaFayette S. Foster, its Speaker, Judge of the Connecticut Supreme Court by a nearly unanimous vote there being only live votes out of 202, against him. Mr. Foster, who is a Connecticut man by birth, and a graduate of Brown University, has served 12 years in the United States Senate, and was, for a session, acting Vice-President. He has served also in the Connecticut General Assembly for 7 or 8 years. He lives in Norwich, and is in his sixty fourth year.

DISEASES OF THE BLOOD. '•The life of the flesh is in tlie Blood," is a Scripture maxim that science proves to be true. Tlie people talk of bad blood, as the cause oi many diseases, and, like many popular opinions, this of bad blood is founded in truth.

The symptoms of bad blood are usually quite plain—bad Digestion—causes imperfect nutrition, and consequently the circulation is feeble, the soft tissues lose their tone and elasticity, and the tongue becomes pale, broad, anil frequently covered with a pasty, white coat. This condition soon shows itself in roughness oi' the skin, then in ERUPTIVE and ULCERATIVE diseases, and, when long continued, results in serious lesions of the Brain, Liver, Lungs, or Urinary Apparatus. Much, very mucli, suffering is caused by impure blood. It is estimated by some that one-filth of the human family are affected with scrofula of some form.

When the blood is pure, you are not so liable to any disease. Many impurities of the Blood arise from impure diseases of large cities. Eradicate every impurity from the fountain of life, and good spirits, fair skin, and vital strength will return to you.

While it acts freely upon the Liver instead of copious purging, it gradually changcs tlie discharges to a perfectly natural state.

KIDNEYS AND BLADDER.

In these Affections it is as near a" specific as any remedy can be. It does its work KINDLY, SILENTLY, and SURELY. The Jtelief which it aliords is both certain and perceptible.

Diseases of the Kidneys and Bladder.

Persons unacquainted with the structure and functions of the Kidneys cannot estimate the IMPORTANCE of their HEALTHY ACTION.

Regular and sufficient action of the Kidneys is as important, nay, even more so, than regularity of the bowels. The Kidneys remove from the Blood those effete matters which, if permitted to remain, would speedily destroyiife. A total suspension of the urinary discharges will occasion death in from thirty-six to forty-eight hours.

When the Urine is voided in small quantities at the time, or when there is a disposition to Urinate more frequently than natural, or when the Urine is high colored, or scalding, with weakness in the small of the back, it should not be trifled with or delayed, but Koskoo should be taken at once to remedy the difficulty, before a lesion of the organs takes, place. Most of the diseaees of the Bladder originate from those of the Kidneys, the Urine being imperfectly secreted in the Kidneys, prove irritating to the Bladder and Urinary passages. When we recollect that medicine never reaches-the Kidneysexcept through the general circulation of the Blood, we see how necessary it is to keep the Fountain of Life Pure.

.Meets with Great^Success injthe Cure of

Diseases of the Nervous System.

Almost nine-tenths of our people suffer from nervous exhaustion, and are, therefore, liable to its concomitant evils of mental depression, confused ideas, softening of the brain, insanity and complete breaking down of the general health. Thousands are buffering to-day with broken down nervous systems, and, unfortunately, tobacco, alcohol, late hours, over-work, (mental and physical), are causing diseases of the nervous system to increase at a fearful rate.

The symptoms to which the diseases of the nervous system give rise, may be stated as follows: A dull, heavy feeling in the head, sometimes more or less severe pain or headache Periodical Headache, Dizziness, Noisesor Ringing in the Head Contusion of Ideas: Tempo-
