Gov.

to Gen. Grant. 80 is ex-Governor C'urtiii of the same .State. A good many very good Republicans think a single term of otliee is all that should be given to any President. He will then have no motive :o use his patronage to elect himself. It was mice considered a wise position both parties.

Moses Grinned has been removed from Use place of Naval Officer of New York, and some one else has the office. Mr. G. says he "contributed $",000 to aid in purchasing a summer resilience for President Grant at Long Branch," and thinks it hard that such a generous act should be forgotten. That may be, and perhaps it is ungrateful. But

Morton''a key-note specc,'i. That question is an important one. It simply means, in plain English, shall half a million of white men continue to be disfranchised in the South to make room for the same number of black men at the polls? And the question toe would ask, is there not room enough at the ballotbox for alt? We favor universal amnesty and universal suffrage, as the only paisacea for our National troubles. Let God's light and Heaven's bounties fall upon (ill our people. If Senator Morton, and other leading Republicans of his school of thinking, are afraid to meet the intellectual white man of Louisiana, Georgia, and the Carolina*, they confess themselves bankrupt in brains and defective in manhood. We are not Republicans of that sort. Let all men vote. That great right belongs to ail citizens of this favored land, white or colored, for their personal protect! and safety.

The General A ^mbly of Ohio has adjourned, without day, and every body in that State is gratified. It was in session about four months, and, for general worthlessness, it never lsatl an equal. Nearly all the members absented themselves from their seats at one time or another, a fourth of their time, much to the neglect of their duties. The papers of all parties iss Ohio speak of the members as a very shabby set, with a few honorable exceptions "but," as the Cincinnati Enquirer says, "The main body were trillers and unfitted to the business they were elected to perform." It is undoubtedly true that legislation has fallen into bad hands in more States than Ohio. The people send too many chaps to Indianapolis who are only intent 011 becoming Governors, members of Congress, State Auditors?, Treasurers, or some other lucrative place. We think a sprinkle of business men would add usefullness to such bodies.

The grave of Stephen A. Douglas, of Idiuois, is soon to be sold for taxes due to the city of Chicago. The taxes are levied for improvements of the streets and setting gas posts, &e. Less than twelve years ago, the name of Douglas was a tower of strength in the land, and was mentioned only to be praised. When the Administration of Lincoln wanted strength, at the

The vote on the (Hies'.ion of purchasing the toll bridge by the county, and making it free to ail persons, luis been decided against the proposition. The vote on building anew Co tiro rouse was also negatived, and by large majority. This last proposition, it is remarked, got but few voles in the city or county. The few it did get was too many, though but 4.17 in city and township. Y\u trust that silly project is squelched for the next ten years.

ojme one has vrritteu to Rev. II. Ward ii.jecher, asking his opinion ubuut the JJiblical narrative of Adam and Eve, and whether they were the lii'st created of our race. He lias answered in tiie negative, suggesting that Cain, after his brother Abel was slain by his hands, went away and was married. And he asks, to whom? There must have been some other families who had daughters. He intimates that the world had some people in it besides the family of Adam. Well, he knows

is own error was

in giving the $-3,000 for any such purpose. President Grant should have been more of a man than to accept gifts from any one, but, as he did accept them, he is ungrateful to those who conferred favors. This entire gift business is disgraceful to those who give and those who receive. No President of the United States ever before received money or valuables from private citizens. (Jiving money, hinds, houses, lols, libraries, carriages, horses, ite., to a President, "the dispenser of patronage and place," is a new abuse, and should be arrested by law. It will sink the nation deep in corruption.

the great Illinois Senator spoke the word, and the people armed for the Union. And now the land in which his bones repose is to be sold for taxes He gave to Chicago the great Illinois Central Road and its branches, by which the City of the Lakes has been made rich and prosperous. And yet, all this is forgotten Are there any men, any patriots, any true love of country, any Christian people in Chicago? Will the grave of Stephen A. Douglas and his bones be allowed to rest on confiscated ground? Low as are her morals, has she no pride of country—no gratitude

Many Republican editors are giving evidence that Gen. Grant is not the man for a second term in the Executive chair. These Republican papers are openly for a new man and a new platform, based upon higher and more liberal views. Amongst them is Chas A. Dana, of the New York iSfan, at one time editor of the New York Tribune, and more recently Assistant.Secretary of War in Mr. Lin-

dmiuistratioa: He seems to

•n'ightened Republicans in tin

The I\-lisses Woodhu'd it Clallin, of New York, are strong-minded women and publish a newspaper called the Weekly that city. They also follow the business of money-brokers, and what else we don't know. One of them, Miss Tennessee Ciailin, was a fortune-teller in Cincinnati a few years ago, buthaving espoused the cause of women's rights, became quite well-to-do in the world, and went into Wall street and began shaving commercial paper and dealing in railroad and other stocks and bonds. She found a partner in Miss Woodhull, and both I»roke into the editorial ranks, alongside of Theodore Tilton, Horace Greeley, Manton Marble "and sich." The iate killing of A. P. Crittenden, in the presence of his wife and children, by Mrs. Laura A. Fair, who claimed him as her husband, on t\ie free lore dodge, is thus noticed by these charming sisters of the press: "In the Fair-Crittonuon case, no doubt, Mrs. Fair was insane whim she killed the man who inscribed himself her husband. The relations «f Mr. and Mrs. Crittenden were those of baro

legality.

Both Crit

tenden and Fair seem to have been a eouplo outside the pale and ordinary common sense or self-control. It is undeniable, except by rampant fanaticism, that had not Mr. Crittenden been under compulsion to abandon the woman for whom liis passionate letters evince his affection up to the. very moment of his death, eho would not have been driven to despair, and ho would not have been killed. Of course, the howl of old-time prejudice will be raised about the rights of poor, neglected Mrs. Crittenden and the dead man's family. They seem to have knowu all about-' it, and to have been content, provided only that the property was all right. Is not the leah of self-interest, for the most part, tho world's strongest marriagetie?"

This mode of disposing of another woman's husband, by Mrs. Fair, finds apologists in this female brace of editors, who think a "howl of old-time prejudice" sadly out of place. These "free and easy" females remark, with charming innocence, that "had not Mr. Crittenden been under compulsion to abandon the woman for whom his passionate letters eirviee his affection," or, in other words, compelled to cling to his wife and children, "he would not have been killed!" That is the philosophy of free love iu all its naked deformity. Such sentiments are atrocious, but they are growing and spreading in this country.

CKNTEXAUY Cirrucir SCXDAY SCHOOL. —Rev. B. W. Smith preached his farewell sermon at Centenary Church yesterday morning, to a very large audience —a just tribute to the valued services that Mr. Smith has rendered the church, lie preached a missionary sermon, and a most excellent one at that, handling his subject in a most effective manner, at the close of which a missionary collection was taken up, amountingto $140.70, and prominent members of the congregation were made life members of the Missionary Society.

In the afternoon, Mr. Smith resigned the Superintendency of the Sunday School of the church, because of changing his residence to Indianapolis. Under his administration the school has flourished as never before, and it was with feelings of deep regret that the school accepted his resignation—as the inevitable and not as the acceptable.

Mr. Smith carries away with liim. the kindliest affection of his school, of which he was the able and deserving Superintendent not only, but of the Centenary congregation, of which he was a most prominent and efficient member. "While we regret to part with him,- we congratulate the citizens of Indianapolis upon the acquisition of so valuble a citizen as the Rev. B. W. Smith.

SlIAED WE HAVE ONE

A movement is 011 foot in this city to establish a "State Normal Conservatory oT Music," under the management of Prof. E. C. Kilbourne of Ohio, and W. H.

Paige, of this city. Tiie former gentleman being one of the ablest professors of music in the country, having had very great experience as a teacher of music iu New York, while Mr. Paige is well known in this city and elsewhere, as one of the ablest and most successful teachers in the West.

object of the institution is to furnish a thorough classical musical education both practical and theoretical to such as may desire to fit themselves for the profession, either as teachers or as artists. In this movement we can see many and very great advantages to our community, not the least of which is that those of our citizens who may wish a first-class musical instruction for themselves or their family, will have such advantage near at home, as the institute will have the services of Prof. B. F. Baker who is acknowledged to be one of the ablest, most successfull and skillful teachers of

music

of Boston, and the services

of Profs. Kilbourne and Paige, and as

many-other first-class teachers as the Institution may require. Then "why can't our citizens come forward and support these gentlemen in

their

movement, thus

guaranteeing them support sufficient to admit of their establishing such a grand institution in our own beautiful city that our embryo musical talent will not have to be sent abroad to have their talents drawn out? These gentlemen now offer scholarship, in- the proproposed Conservatory of Mibic with a. view of ascertaining whether or not they can succeed in the enterprise.

The scholarship entitles the holder and family to admission iu all class exercises of the Conservatory, the price of each scholarship being fixed at the low sum of $10 per annum for five years, payable annually in advance. The scholarships are transferable to any party permanently residing in the city, and any one holding a scholarship not having any pupils are allowed to send whomsoever they choose, provided the do not exceed four. For full particulars we would advise our readers to call at W. H. Paige & Co.'s Music Store, corner of Sixth and Main streets.

upon "Happy Cai Yvagner" and his troupe to give a second minstrel performance in the city, as he wanted to see more of the "elephant." The best of the joke, however, was that he didn't know* that our tears had been wasted until told so by a gentleman who was better posted than either of us. We got our information from Philadelphia exchanges, but since learn that it was the old combination of Richings-Bernard that was dismembered because of the bankruptcy of Pierre Bernard, though nearly all the papers in the country have hewn laboring under tiie same mistake that we were. "We are pleased to learn, and inform our readers, that the grand English Opera Combination, under the management of Mr. C. I). Hess, was a brilliant success.

THE career of a fast young man, who has been engaged at the Chicago Novelty in some capacity or another, was brought to a close yesterday, by having his account overhauled by the Chief of Police and others. It appears that he has been cutting quite a dash since his advent into the city and attracted the attention of the Chief, who placed him under arrest, and an investigation led to the fact that he has been purloining and appropriating to his own use articles or money which belonged to his employers. Hitherto he has been very respectably connected at New Albany, we believe connected with one of the papers at that place. His employers very generously refused to prosecute him and gave him money to get out of the city on, and he got. "Now You SKE

—A seedy looking individual, who was evidently laboring under the influence of something less than a couple of gallons of benzine, called at the boot and shoe store adjoining the GAZETTE office this morning. He was standing in the shop trying to effect the purchase of a pair of No. 13 brogans, with a fifty cent shinplaster which lie was flourishing about in his hand, but before he was aware of the presence of little "dorg" belonging to the establishment, which was up to "tricks that are dark," the purp reared up and in twinkling the shin plaster had disappeared down his throat, at which the benzine inspired individual "cussed."

THE result of the second trial of the Rev. Charles Edward Cheney, by an ecclesiastical tribunal convened for that purpose according to the laws of the Episcopal Church, was readied yesterday, and consists in his conviction upon all the charges and specifications set fortii in the presentment, and in the recommendation that "the canonical and ecclesiastical sentence of degradation from the ministry should be pronounced upon him." The duty of pronouncing this sentence devolves, by the law of tiie church, upon the Bishop of the diocese.

DR. HAMMOND has made a frightful announcement in one of his recent clinical lectures. We used to think that a lady who said no when she meant yes was exercising a wholesome and normal prerogative of her sex. But we read in the Journal of Psychological Medicine that this habit indicates the presence of the serious nervous disorder called Amnesic Aphasia, and takes its rise iu embolus thrombus, or.something else equally Greek and horrible.

A CLERGYMAN was once endeavoring to get a subscription in aid of some charitable institution out of a close-fisted parishoner, who attempted to excuse himself on the ground that lie already owed a great deal of money. "But," said the minister, "you owe God a larger debt than you do anyone else." "That is so, parson but then heain't pushing me, like the balance of my creditors."

A BOSTON correspondent is deeply grieved over Bret Harte's reputation and success calling him the king of slang, the apostle of gilt-edged profanity and detestable vulgarisms.

IF there be anything in this world which is mournfully laughable, it is the spectacle of a dead miser, lying in helpless inertia, and quite unable to protect, though never so faintly, against the undertaking and other sepulchral extravagance.

unmvthological heirs will not so much as place a penny to pay Charon into the fist which will never gripe again, or upon the palm which will itch no more. There will be newspaper paragraphs about the queer creature in the coffin, like the one which we read concerning Thomas Boyle, a miser just defunct in Phikidelplia. He was bellringer at the navy yard, dwelt

seventy years alone in a garret, was worth eighty thousand dollars salted down in real property, begged all the clothing which he wore from the generous sailors, and whenever it was washed he washed it himself. With ail his wealth, there was not a poorer creature in the city. He attained the superlative of the adjective—he was miser and he was miserrimus, living in such a fearful foreboding of penury that he attempted, at one time, to enlist a common sailor at seventeen dollars a mouth. Here, as in all such cases, was prudence, an excellent quality in itself, run to sheer lunacy. 11 will always be so, when the business of money-getting is pursued for the sheer sake ot getting money—a crazy hunt which does noboby, not even the hunter himself, any good. It may be hard to convince the world that this mania is substantially

than that of the spendthrift—that, in fact, it is, all things considered, less creditable to human nature—yet such seems to us to be the truth.

For the Renovation of the Hair!

The Great Desideratum cf the Aere

A dressing which i.s at once agreeable, healthy, and effectual for preserving the hair. Faded or gray hair is soon restored to its original color and the gloss and freshness of youth. Thin hair is thickened, falling hair checked, and baldness often, though not always, cured by its use. Nothing can restore the hair where the follicles are destroyed, or the gland.^ atrophied or decayed. But such as remain can be saved for usefulness by thi application. Instead of fouling the hair with a pasty sediment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its occasional use will prevent the hair from falling oft, and consequently prevent baldness. Free from those deleterious substances which make some preparations dangerous and injurious to the hair, the Vigor can only benefit but not harm it. If v,anted merely for a

IXAI1S DRESSING, nothing else can be found so desirable. Containing neither oil nor dye, it does not soil white cambric, and yet lasts longer on the hair, giving it a rich glossy lustre and a grateful perfume.
