The Old Trick.
We had hoped that this periodical traveling to Washington and the North, by delegations of "carpet baggers" from the South, retailing their incidents of horror and bloodshed—their crucifying stories of the everlasting and omnipreaent Ku-Klux, and their continuous appeal for military aid just after they have been overthrown and defeated by the votes of the people, had become so nauseating to every honest man in the countrv, that it would never be repeated again. But we were doomed to disappointment. Some of these ambitious "new settlers" in North Carolina, having had their nice little plans all knocked into 2i by the popular vote of the people, and remembering the success heretofore following the efforts of such delegations, are now in Washington, on their way we suppose to see Ben Butler and Charles Sumner, to have the next Congress spend weeks in taking the offices from those who have received them by the will of the people of that State, and give them to said "carpet baggers." A recent, telegram from Washington says:
WASHINGTON, August 16.—A delegation of Republicans have arrived hero from North Carolina and intend to proceed North, to lay bofore members of Congress and others the facts in regard to the condition of affairs in that State and the attitudo of the colored men. The members of the delegation are vouched for by trustworthy authority as being wholly responsible, and that their statements are entitled to full credit. Tnoy have also a mass of evidence going to show in what manner the election in that State was carried bv the Ku Klux organiz^on. "Colonel Geonre M. Arnold, who comes direct from Wilniingtonand Raleigh, says that Governor Holden is accumulating authenticated testimony in regard to the outrages in the State, and that he will arrive here with Senator Abott next week to lay the facts before the President and Secretary of War. They will urge the continuance in the State of the military, to act in thearrcst and punishment of criminals, the number of whom enables them to defy the civil processes. An effort Avill also be made in Congress to set the election aside, as it is clearly shown that twentyfive thousand colored men in the State, owing to bodily injury, threats and intimidations, wore kept from the polls. The most appalling crimes were committed, which in atrocity have never been equaled the annals of history, except by savages on the plains and there is tho most convincing evidence of the cruelties of the outlaws, not only to men, but to women, white and black, already in the hands of the Governor, on election day, in the Fourth, Fifth, Sixth and Seventh Congressional Districts. It is represented that there was no pretense of holding a fair election in some of the election districts that colored men were openly mobbed, their lives threatened, and a reign of terror overspread the whole colored population.
Governor Holden bolioves that the Federal troops are still necessary to preserve tho public peace, and protect loyal men, and, with tho Republican Congressmen from that State, will urge tho President to continuo all the troops now in that State, at least until Congress assoinbles in December.
So, "the most appalling crimes, which in atrocity have never been equalled in the annals of history," nre now shifted to the soil of the State of North Carolina. A few weeks ago they were common in the State of Georgia. And what is most remarkable about these "appalling crimes" is, that they never occur, only when a certain class of men.hnve been defeated at the election.
IIow disgraceful it will be
Amcr
ican Congress to wasto any more time in listening to the interested pleadings ot such delegations. And how unconstitutional, and anti-Republican it is for the President of the United States, or Congress, or any one else having the power, to keep this people, living under an independent State Government,in surveilance to the military power. It is the bane of modern statesmanship, and the great mistake of the times.
A CORRESPONDENT of the Cincinnati Chroniclc, having passed over the Indianapolis, Terre Haute, Vandalia & St. Louis road a few days ago, speaks of it in the following terms: "On Tuesday morning last one of the splendid nows cars of the St. Louis, Van dalia, Terro Haute fc Indianapolis Railroad stood in tho Cincinnati, Hamilton fc Dayton depot in your city. At seven o'clock some twenty-five excursionists, with through tickets for Atchison, Kansas, occupied its capacious and comfortable seats, among whom wore a number of la dies, but the majority were young men, improving the opportunity to prospect for business or permanent homes.
The excursion party was gotten up by Mr. John J. Grafton, "the active and amiable agent of the new route west via Indianapolis, Terre Haute, Vandalia and St Louis. This route has only been opened since the middle of June and with the connection it has formed with the Indianapolis Junction, from Cincinnati via Hamilton, Connersville and Rushville, it opens up a formidable rival to tho old Ohio & Mississippi road. It is but little longer, and runs through a far bettor section of country and though a portion of the track is new, it is all in the best condition, and trains mako excellent time. Passengers leaving Cincinnati at 7 A.M. arrivoin St. Louis at 10:30 P.M., in time to get a Kood night's sleep beforo attending to business, or resuming their iournov noxt morning,"

No one can pass over this road, without being impressed with its excellence. Perhaps no road in America is better built, or more carefully managed.
A meeeting of the Irish Nationals was held in New York Tuesday night, and resolutions passed requesting John Mitchell, Charles O'Connor, Richard O'Gorman, Wm.E. Robinson, ChalesP. Daily, Gen. Martin McMahon, John McKeon, Euimet Bryant, Lawrence Dennis, Quinn and Michael Phglan to act as a directory for the government of Irish funds in America, in case the complications arising out of the present European war should enable Irishmen in every clime to unite in striking a blow for the mother land.

A FEW nights ago the drug store of Dr Walker, in Quincy, Iowa, waa found to be on fire. When the door waa burst open the proprietor was found within insensible, from several ugly wounds, and wedged in among some boxes. He had been robbed of $500, which he had about his person. He is still alive, but in acritical condition. The store was consumed.

Rarely does it happen that one man can
services, to a great nation and to
humanity, so important and conspicuous. Looking back upon the war, it is hard to tell what might have been the result had not three men given their lives to the country. President Lincoln held the confidence of the people Edwin Stanton organized and directed the armies and D. C. Farragut inspired the navy, led it to deeds of matchless heroism, and wrested from the rebellion the Mississippi and finally Mobile. We can not tell how powerfully the fame of his exploits checked the disposition of European nations to. interfere. We cannot tell how long long the war might have been prolonged, had not his heroism forced the defences of the Mississippi, and cut the rebellion in two. Nor can we estimate the moral effect of such deeds as the capture of New Orleans upon the insurgents or upon the loyal people. Still less can we measure the effect of the stern and uncompromising loyalty of Farragut, himself a native of the South, upon the people of seceding States or upon the navy which leaders of the rebellion spared no pains to corrupt.
In the manner and bearing of this man there was little to give warning of the wonderful feats of daring and genius which make his name one of the bright est in our history. He was a small, slender, and by no means imposing person, quick and decisive in manner, it is true, but wholly free from display. In animated conversation, his not very attractive features were lighted up with a strange charm, so that, though he spoke not much, men and women gathered round him, but nothing could be more simple and unaffected than his manner, whether in the parlor or under fire. There was no gammon about him a born fighter, quick to plan and daring to execute, he left others to do the talking, before and after. Only in his bright, steady eye, and in tho set firmness of the lower part of the face, would the observer read evidences of peculiar power. He was a man for war not for peace or politics. When fighting was done, men not worth his little finger began to eclipse him, and had more to do with the navy than its brightest ornament. But the people will nevertheless treasure in their hearts the memory of his patriotism and his deeds, and to us, as already to other nations, the name of Farragut will stand for all that is most brilliant and glorious in modern warfare at sea.—Missouri Democrat.

Aii Unlucky Bath—How a Louisiana Match was Broken off. In a certain neighborhood of our parish there resided an intelligent young gentleman of prepossessing appearance and agreeable manners, who not many months ago became smitten with the charms of a blooming daughter of a near neighbor, a well-to-do farmer, and after several weeks of unremitting attention succeeded in touching a responsive cord in the susceptible heart of the fair damsel, and gained her blushing consent to become his wife. So far, so good, and had it not been for an unfortunate incident that. "Rudely snapped the cord In twain
That bouud their lieurts together,
the same might have been said of them that has been said of thousands of other foolish boys and girls, namely, they met, courted and were married. But an adverse fate had otherwise ordered, and our hero was destined only too soon to have his cup of bliss changed into the bitterness of gall and wormwood, As soon as their engagement had received the sanction of the old folks, preparations were made on an extensive scale to have the nuptial ceremonies and the festivities attendant thereupon conducted in a style in keeping with their elevated position in society. Time passed with the happy pair, and the morn that was to witness the happy consummation of their fondest nopes urew nign when, alas! the un-
fortunate incident occurred that put an end to their pleasant dreams and delightful anticipations. One afternoon, only a few days before the auspicious hour, our young friend concluded that he would enjoy a refreshing bath in a creek that ran within a short distance of his home. Acting upon the thought, he wended his way to where a large magnolia stood near the bank of tho pellucid stream, and, divesting himself of his clothing, was soon disporting in the limpid waters. Suddenly a sound broke upon his ear. Hark 'twas the ripple, not of the water, but of a silvery laugh, and peering cautiously above the bank, what was his horror to see his fair inamorata, accompanied by a female friend, not more than one hundred yards distant, and slowly approaching the spot whero he stood "in all his loveliness revealed." Here was a predicament, indeed If he remained where he was, the young ladies would be sure to see him, and if he sought safety it was equally impossible for him to escape detection. What should he do? Ah, happy thought! there was a tree, and if he could only manage to climb that unobserved, he might secrete himself among the branches, and the thick moss and leaves

Would hide his form from prying eyes.
No sooner said than done, and, being careful to keep the body of the tree between himself and the girls, our young friend, in less time than it takes to write, was snugly stowed away in the top of the tree, and waiting very impatiently for the young ladies to go by. Unfortunately, however, in the hurry and excitement he forgot his clothes, which, lying on tho batik, attracted the attention of the girls, and, with the proverbial curiosity of their sex, they must needs come nearer to see if they could not unravel the seeming mystety. Approaching the tree they soon discovered what the mysterious bundle was, and became lost in conjecture as. to how a man's clothing, without the man, should happen to be in that sequestered spot. They gave free play to their imaginations and their tongues, and not a few were the jokes and laughs in which they indulged while they submitted the garments to a ractical examination. Matters, however, id not look so funny to our ''man np the tree," and, fearful of being discovered, he resolved to change his base and secure a better position. In doing this he inadvertently threw his whole weight on a dead limb, and in the twinking of an eye he came down with a thundering crash any lay sprawling on his back right between the startled girls. There were two shrieks, a smothered oath and hastily picking himself .up, the poor fellow fled with all possible speed in one direction, wirile the young ladies were equally as nimble in getting away from so dreadful a sight in another. Returning after the coast was clear, our hero resumed his clothing, and straightway went to his home, where shortly after a note was handed hi til from his fiance declar-
jing their engagement, to be at an end. spoiling for a Accommodated gentleman to go
WE shall not wonder if European ar rnies learn the same truth which was so clearly shown in our own war of the Re bellion, that young men are the best Generals. The Crown Prince of Prussia, who has the chief glory of the defeat of the French army, is not 3*et 39 years old, and before he was 35 he had made himself a great name at Sadowa. Prince Frederick Charles, the King's nephew, who commands the Prussian right, and is esteemed the greatest of King illiam's Generals, is 42 vears old. Most .of the fighting at Sadowa was done by his army. Nearly all the French leaders are old men.

It is probable that Mayor Walker, of Evansvillle, will not recover. Tho Rink and hall at LaFayetto will be a success. So tho papers re]xrt
The Indiana Cotton Mill at Carmelton is again in operation. It runs il,0u0 spindles.
J. Scott Whitman has disappeared from Jeffersonville effectually and mysteriousty. He was an operative in tho Ohio Falls Car Works.
The groceries of Jeffersonville propose forming a protective association to screen thorn from the ravages of an animal known as a "dead beat."
Pike county has a mineral spring whoso waters are said to be a sure cure for ague. Several persons living in that county affected with ague have been speedily and permanently cured by this water, after the usual remedies had failed.
A country youth went into a saw mill in Madison the other day, and after looking at the circular saw, thought he would more closely examine its construction, thinking, in his innocence, that it was standing still. He entirely satisfied himself—with the loss of an arm.
The Fort Wayne Democrat says that a gentleman in Indianapolis was surprised to discover a beard on his A^fe's face on returning home one evening lately. He thought it rather singular until further investigation revealed the rest of the man on the sofa. The visitor is now in a hospital, with a bandage around his head.
Tho Evansvillo Journal of yesterday says: The term at the State Normal School commences September 7th, and those who desire information respecting it should send to the President, Professor Wm. A. Jones, for a circular. The session hold during tho vacation for the benefit of such teachers as desired to avail themselves of its benefits, and proved such a success as to lead to the expectation that the school will be more largely attended next season.
D. W. Kessler, of Floyd count}', with his wife and daughter, while driving along tho road in the vicinit}*- of New Albany, were precipitated over a twenty-five foot embankment, in consequence of the team becoming unmanagable.gand all were severely injured. Mr. ICesseler had his left leg broken, Mrs. K's. left arm and collar bono wero fracture.d, while the daughter was badly bruised. At last accounts all were getting along as comfortably as could be expected.
Tho New Albany Ledger says that Wm. Humphray, brother of Richard Humphry of that city died from the effects of damps while in a well on Moses Voyle's place in Washington county, eight miles south of Salom, on Friday last. It seems that Mr. Yoyles employed Ilumphrav to clean out the well, and had, with the assistance of his son, let Mr. Humphray down with ropes. Mr. H. untied the lines, in order, it is supposed, to facilitate his movements but soon afterwards called to Mr. V. to haul him out. This Mr. V. proceeded to do, but Humphray became so weak that he lot go his hold upon tho ropes dropped back into the well and expired.
During a thunder storm a few days ago, when the rain was pouring down, Mr John G. F. Hoffman was standing on the porch of his residence, on the Haysville road, about six miles from Jasper, when his barn about forty feet from the house was struck b3r lightning, and set on fire. He was prostrated by the stroke, and unable to do anything for several moments. The barn, which had a large amount of hay in it, and several hundred bushels of wheat, oats, and corn, was totally con Burned, togethor with a road wagon, threshing machine, mower, and other farming implements. His buggy was drawn out to the road, and left, and during the excitement, before it was noticed again, it was all on (ire, and was also consumed. The fire communicated from the barn to the residence in an incredibly short timo, and it also, with most of his household effects, was burned.
How to Fatten a Poor Ilorse. Many good horses devour large quantities of hay, and still continue poor and thin. The food i3 not properly assimilated. If the usual feed has been unground grain and hay, nothing but a change will affect any desirable alteration in the appearance of the animal. In case oil meal cannot be obtained readily, mingle a bushel of barly, one of oats and another of Indian corn, and let it be ground into fine meal. This Avill be a fair proportion of all his feed. Or the meal of the barley,' in equal quantities, may first be procured, and one fourth part of oil-cake mingled with it, when the meal is sprinkled on cut feed.
Feed two or three or four quarts of the mixture two or three times a day, mingled with a peck of coarse hay and straw. If the horse will eat that greedily, let the quantities be gradually increased until he will eat four or six quarts at every feeding three times a day. So long as the animal will eat this allowance, the quantity may increase a little every day, and he may stand at a rack well filled with hay. In order to fatten a horse that has run down in flesh you should be very particular to feed the animal no more than he will eat up clean and lick his manger for more.—American Stock Journal.
Freaks of Nature.
Some remarkable cattle have lately been on exhibition in Chicago, consisting of three specimens, each one of which was a lusits nature, unlike anything of which, we believe, there is any record. One was a Durham cow of ordinary size, having five legs, two tails, two udders—one of them being on the top of her back from which milk was drawn as well as from the one naturally situated. The circulation in the extra limb is identicaliy the same as that of the others.
The second animal is a native bull perfectly formed, and having, in addition, well developed teats and udder from which milk was drawn in considerable quantities.
The third animal is a calf, said to be the offspring of the first two animals, having but one ejTe, and that situated in the middle of the forehead with a tail over the eye.
These auimals are no humbug. They have been examined by eminent surgeons and naturalists, and are just as represented. We understand they will be exhibited in various portions of the Northwest for several weeks. .:
Chinaman's Papoose.
Mr. John W. Young, son of Brigham, of Salt Lake City, has been for the past year eugaged ih making collections for a Territorial Museum, designed especially to designate the animal kingdom, minerals, of Utah. Being in San Francisco a short tirnevince, he purchased a pair of monkeys forhi.-j museum. On his way home, while the cars stopped at Elko for refreshment, seeing a considerable number of Indians around the station he called them to the baggage ear, and opening the door pointed oHt the chattering occupants. The Indians surveyed the monkeys with characteristic gravity. "Do you know what they are?"at length said Mr. Young to the Chief of the red men. "Yes," said the Chief, with some indication of surprise at the simplicity of the question, "me see 'em, me know 'em Chinamen's papoose."

persons, intending to take up a Homestead Pre-Emption in this poetry of the West, embracing Iowa, Dakota, and Nebraska and other sections. It explains how to proceed to secure 160 acres of Rich Farming Land for Nothing, six months before you leave your home, in the most healthful climatc. In short it contains just such instructions as are needed by those intending to make a Home and Fortune in the Free Lands of the West. I will send one ot these printed Guides to any person for 25 cents. The information alone, which, it gives is worth So to anybody. Men who came here two and three years ago, and took a farm, are to-day independent.
To YOUNG MEST.
This country is being crossed with numerous Railroads from every direction to Sioux City, Iowa. Six Railroads will be made to this city within one year. One is already in operation connecting us with Chicago and the U. P. Railroad and two more will be completed before spring, connecting us with Dubuque and McGregor, direct. Three more will be completed within a year, connecting us direct with St
Paul,
Minn., Yankton, Dakota, and Columbus Nebraska, on the U. P. Railroad. The Missou River gives us the Mountain Trade. THUS it wi 1 be seen that no section of country offers such unprecedented advantages for business, speculation and making a fortune, for the country is being populated, and towns and cities are being built, and fortunes made almost beyond belief. Every man who takes a homestead now will have a railroad market at his own door, And any enterprising young man with a small capitafcan establish himself in a permanent paying business, if he selects the right location and riglit branch of trade. Eighteen years residence iii the western country, and a large portion ot the time employed as a Mercantile Agent in this country, has made me familiar with all the branches of business and the best locations in this country. For one dollar remitted to me I will give truthful and definite answers to all questions on this subject desired by such persons. Tell them the best place to locate, and what business is overcrowded and what branch is neglected. Address,
