ADVERTISING BUMMER FITAUD.
The Reason Why.
We expect the business men of Terre Haute have been sufficiently bored and cheated, during the past few years, by advertising bummers, to render anything that might be said in regard to these gentlemen unnecessary and superfluous. They have been mapped, directoried, enveloped, carded, registered and advertised in various ways, and in various other ways "taken in and done for." It may be, however, notwithstanding this fact__that the city bummer even next week can make a successful raid among the traders of this city—their eloquence is invincible and irrepressible, and, in fact, some of our merchants seem to like being roped in. Already we hear that another stupendous advertising humbug is marching on this much-persecuted town—the modus operandi of which is after the following fashion: A dealer is approached by some oily gammon person, who decants upon the advantage of having his business card presented, with that of some others, upon some sort of sheet, with a rame about it and an ontre picture in the center. It is represented that great numbers of people look at these sheets attentively and constantly, and straight way go off' and purchase of the dealers whose names are on the sheet in question. The latter are often flattered into the belief that their names thus so conspicuously posted, really attract great attention, and brings marvelous remuneration in the augmentation of their trade. Tf such a one will take the trouble of going,into some leading hotel to ascertain how many persons look at the advertising sheet in question, he will find that scarcely a man in a day does so. Yet twenty or thirty or fifty or a hundred dollars are sometimes thrown away yearly in this worthless style of advertising. The same amount paid to established newspapers of the best kind would infallibly bring thousands of dollars in additional sales. An advertisement in a respectable newspaper, with a good, healt'jy circulation, and one where the interests of advertisers are consulted, is remunerative and valuable. An ad" vertisement in some catch-penny dodge, whose projector is here to-day and gone to-morrow, is utterly valueless. The former comes out fresh and clean once a day, while the latter becomes dirty and grimy, and falls to pieces in a day or two. Beware of the advertising bummers, and save your money, for your home papers and look upon the infliction of such bummers as described above, upon our community as a calamity to be averted by all means. If business men have more money than they have any use for, let them give it to some charitable object, or even deposit it in a sand bank, in preference to throwing it away in support of the advertising bummer.
and company, have
acted in the same manner in Indianapolis as in this city, having telegraphed Pearson & Dickson, to raise the seats from the old price, as fixed upon by their agent, and at which many tickets were already sold, to $1. for reserved, seats and seventy-five cents admission. This, in a mere business point of view, is dishonorable and disgraceful, audits effect will be to clip the wings of this young high-flying artist wry seriously. Emmet's performance here was a failure, not only financially, but as an entertainment of-the first class, as it purported to bo, and unless the good citizeus of the Capital have an unusual amount of forbearance, it will be the same there. We hope ere he takes another tour in the West he will learn to treat its citizens honorably and with more respect.
PICTURE.—At the business house of F. C. Crawford, on Main street, may be seen one of the finest pictures of war events we have seen in many a day, entitled, "On the march to the Sea," it represents a scene that occurred during Sherman's march to the sea. In the foreground the troops are engaged in tearing up a railroad track, while far up the perspective, through which flows a stream, the troops are skirmishing for the possession of a bridge. The buildings in the vicinity are on fire. The colored people are fleeing to our troops for safety and freedom, while the herds are flying in terror before the rattle of musketry and roar of artillery. The picture is full of life and expression. It is a present to Mr. Crawford from Mr. M. S. Wasson, of St. Louis.
BEAUTIFUL.—These moonlight nights, vers, plight again your vows cynics, forth behold the wondrous beauties nature learn wisdom take charity faith into your hearts.

[Special Dispatches to the Terre Haute Gazette.]
PAKIS, June 1.—The French journals are greatly divided in sentiment as to the future of the country. The Opinion, Bien Public, Politique, Siecle, and Con stitutionel favor a continuance of the Republic. The Temps, Nationale and Patoir are very guarded in their comments upon the situation. The Opinion thinks the withdrawal of Thiers would be equivalent to a revolution. The Siecle says Thiers is as energetic against the Bonapartists as the Reds. The Figaro favors a monarch.
Marshal MacMahou's authority is required for opening theatres. The sale of newspapers on the streets is prohibited.
The Siecle was seized this morning. Executions have ceased. The prisoners are now on trial at Versailles.
The barricades in Paris numbered four hundred. LONDON, June 1.—Prince Napoleon has written a letter to Favre, censuring the men who proclaimed the decheance of the Emperor and formed the Government of tlie 4th of September last, and demanding of the existing authorities a plebiscite for the determination of the future of France.
It is now positively announced that General Le Flo will go to St. Petersburg, in the capacity of French Ambassador.
LISBON, June 1.—There has been much opposition to the Ministry, in discussions in the Cortes, of schemes for raising ways and means to meet public expenditures, that the project of law has been considerably modified.
Great preparations are being made for the reception of the Emperor of Brazil, who is daily expected in Lisbon on his tour through Europe and the United States.
COLUMBUS, June 2.—The State Democratic Convention met at the Opera House at half-past ten yesterday morning. The attendance was very large. John T. McKinney, of Miami county, was elected temporary Chairman. J. K. Newcomer and J. O. Santmeyer-were made temporary Secretaries.
The following Committee on Resolutions was appointed: First District, Wm. M. Ramsey Second, M. W. Oliver Third, C. L. Vallandigham Fourth, Charles Hawkins Fifth, C. N. Lamison Sixth, C. A. White Seventh, J. E. Wright Eighth, H. D. Vanfleet Ninth, G. F.Dickinson Tenth, F. H. Hurd Eleventh, Geo. A. Weller Twelfth, A. D. Mayo Thirteenth, George W. Morgan Fourteenth, D. S. Uhl Fifteenth, W. B. Golden Sixteenth, J. M. Estep Seventeenth, D. Worley Eighteenth, W. W. Armstrong Nineteenth, J. H. O'Dell.
Frank Hurd offered a resolution,which $vas tabled, instructing the Committee on Resolutions not to consider the Fourteenth and Fifteenth amendments in its deliberations.
After the appointment of other committees the Convention took a recess until two o'clock.
The Democratic State Convehtioii reassembled at the Opera House at 2 o'clock. A permanent organization was effected, with George H. Pendelton as Chairman, and a Vice President from each Congressional District. William Heisley was elected Secretary.
After reports from several committees, there was a long waiting for a report from the Committee on Resolutions. At last, General George W. Morgan submitted the followiug, as the report of nineteen members of the committee, and moved their
adoption by the Convention:
Resolved, By the Democracy of OhioFirst. That denouncing the extraordinary means by which they were brought about, we recognize as accomplished facts the three amendments in fact to the Constitution, recently declared adopted, the same as no longer political issues before the country.
Second. We demand that the rule of strict construction, as proclaimed by the Democratic fathers, accepted by the statesmen of all parties, previous to the war, and embodied in the tenth amendment to the Constitution, be vigorously applied now to the Constitution, as it is, including the tliree recent amendments above referred to, and insist that those amendments shall not be held to have in any respect altered or modified the original theory and character of the Federal Government, but only to have enlarged the powers delegated to it, and to that extent, and no more, to have abridged the reserved rights of the States, and that as thus construed the Democratic party pledges itself to the free, faithful and absolute execution and enforcement of the Constitution as it now is, so as to secure equal rights to all persons under it, without distinction of race, color or condition.
Third. That the absolute equality of each and every State within the Union is a fundamental principle of the Federeral Government.
Fourth. That we will always cherish and uphold the American system of State and local government for State and local purposes, and a General Government for general purposes only and are unalterably opposed to all attempts at centralization and consolidation of power
in the hands of the General Government, and the more especially when such attempts are in the form of usurpation by any department of that Government and further, that we adhere firmly to the principles of maintaining a perfect independence between the co-ordinate departments of the Government—the legislative, the executive and the judicial— condemning all encroachments by one upon the functions of the other.
Fifth. That while the fundamental law, as expressed in the Constitution, is necessarily permanent until abrogated as provided by that instrument, all legislation, in its nature and purpose, temporary and subject to change, modification or repeal, at the will of the majority of the people, expressed through the law making power, and that the pretense that any act of Congress, not executed and enforced or any legislative policy of a party is an absolute finality, is totally inconsistent with the whole theory of Republican government, and that it is the unquestionable right of the people of themselves, and through their representatives, at each successive election, and in each successive Congress, to judge of what legislation is necessary and proper, or appropriate to carry into execution or enforce the constitutional power, rights and duties of the Federal Government.
Sixth. That as an instance of eminently appropriate legislation, under the Fourteenth Amendment, we demand now of Congress universal amnesty.
Seventh. That while we denounce the riotous conducts and conspiracies against the law, to disrupt the peace in the South, or elsewhere, and demand of all good citizens their utmost influence to put all such down, we also denounce the act commonly called the bayonet bill, recently passed by Congress and the more recent act, commonly called the Ku Klux bill, exending by its terms to every State, as enacted for no other purpose than to complete the centralization of all power in the hands of the General Government, establish a military despotism, and thus perpetuate the present administration, without regard to the will of the people, and as not only utterly inconsist with the whole theory and character of the Federal Govrnment, and revolutionary and dangerous on their character, but in direct conflict with the spirit and letter of the Constitution, including the amendment which they pretend to enforce.
Eighth. That holding still to the good old Democratic doctrine of annexation or acquisition of territory, we are yet totally opposed to the scheme of President Grant to acquire San Domingo as a job, and by the means and for the purposes evidently intended.
Ninth. That we are in favor of a strictly revenue tariff, conformed to the theory and principles of all other just aud wise tax laws, and opposed to the protection theory, so called.
Tenth. That the profligate corruption and wanton extravagance which pervades every department of the Federal Government, the sacrifice of the interests of labor to aggrandize a handful of aristocrats, the wicked deprivation of their rightful heritage in the public lands, which have been made a gift to railroad and other monopolists the payment of more than $24,000,000 premium during the administration of President Grant on Government bonds, payable at par, the maintenance at an annual cost to the people of nearly $20,000,000 of an unconstitutional, oppressive and extortionate system of banking, whereby money is made scarce and interest higher, are abuses which call for wise and thorough remedies.
Eleventh. That we are in favor of strict economy, of a large reduction in the expenditures of the Federal and State Governments, of civil service reform, of the collection of the internal revenue by State authorities, and thereby a return to honest labor of the myriads of taxgatherers who afflict our land and eat up its substance, and of the speedy trial, conviction and punishment of the thieves who have stolen the taxes paid by the people.
Twelfth. That while we reject repudiation, we equally reject the proposition to pay the bondholders more than the contract with them demands. That if the bondholders have rights, so have the taxpayers, and we insist upon justice being done to both. That the creditor is entitled to be paid in the same currency he loaned the Government. That when he loaned^greenbacks he should be paid in greenbacks, unless the contract otherwise provided, and when he loaned gold he should be paid in gold. That to guard against too great an expansion, greenbacks should be made convertible into three per cent, bonds, at the option of the note-holders of said bonds, to be redeemed in greenbacks on demand. That the true method of returning to specie payment i9 to make custom duties payable in legal tender currency, whether paper money or gold. That such a policy would secure a uniform currency, stop gambling in gold, and thereby elevate the credit of the Government.
Thirteenth. That with the Watchword of Reform we confidently go to the country. That we believe the interests of the great body of the people are the same. That without regard to past political associations they are the friends of free government that they are equally honest, brave and patriotic, and we appeal to them, as to our brothers and countrymen, to aid us to obtain relief from the grievous abuses which wrongs and oppresses every one except the wrong doers and oppressors themselves.
Fourteenth. Upon State issues we resolve that we are in favor of callinga convention, as provided for by article sixteen, section three, of the State Constitution.
C. L. Vallandigham, who stood by Mr. Morgan's side during the reading of the resolutions, seconded the motion for their adoption.

NEW YORK,
June 2.—A special dis
patch says the miners rescued alive at West Pittston shaft are still suffering from the effects of gas aud smoke inhaled by them. The first man taken out of the pit on Sunday morning, Andrew Morgan, lies in a very critical condition. The brothers Robert, Thomas and Wm. Small seem to have almost recovered their health, and are considered out of danger. John Price is recovering rapidly, being able to be removed to his own house, in East Pittston. George Edwards suffered great agony, but now seems to be improving. Michael Cox is very low his recovery seems doubtful. Anthony Ford is reported much better and through very weak is moving about. Thomas Edwards is fast regaining the use af his faculties and his strength. Owen Martin is dead. James Jones, a !ad about twelve years old, who was supposed on Sunday to be sinking, is now improving, and is expected to recover. John Gibbs is extremely ill, though his physicians do not despair of saving his life. Thomas Savage is very low and in a dangerous condition, with feeble pulse, and his fate is doubtful. He has suffered injuries to the spinal column, though he may recover. Joseph Fell is low and in equal danger.
The correct number in the mine at the time the breaker was discovered on fire was fifty-nine. Twenty-two of these were taken out before the works burned down. Seventeen were laKeu oirnfr mc pit dead, and four have died since. The sixteen remaining are all doing well, and will probably recover—

William Anderson, a prominent merchant of this city, who sent United States Judge Benedict a note saying he would discharge one of his employes if held on jury duty, to-day pleaded guilty to an indictment charging an attempt to obstruct the administration of justice, and upon explanation that he acted hastily, and without any evil intention, sentence was suspended.

THE
funeral of the late Colonel Jesse
I. Alexander took place yesterday afternoon at the town of Gosport, and was very largely attended. From this city, Col. Norman B. Eddy, Secretary of State, who served three years in the same brigade with Colonel A. Col. Jeff. K. Scott. Gen. Spooner, Major J. E. Simpson, Captain M. G. McLain and Adjutant Generan Greenwalt attended, carrying with them the colors of th® 48th and 59th regiments, with which the hearse and casket containing the remains were draped. The procession was formed at the residence of Mr. Hays, brother-in-law of the deceased, and was composed of the Masonic Fraternity, under whose auspices he was buried, the officers and soldiers, particularly of the old 59th, and citizens in carriages. At the grave the Masonic burial service was conducted by Lyndon A. Smith, of Terre Haute, after which a brief but very appropriate addres was made by Colonel Eddy.

cal lie, while he looks as honest and as innocent as an unweaned angel. The defendant tries his cheek by bringing forth a healthier and better proportioned lie than the plaintiff, while he looks as though he were expecting every minute to hear Gabriel call him home.
Every other witness tries his cheek by being perfectly self-possessed, and as much at ease as though he had been born under cross-examination, and had a first-class witness stand in his back yard, where he practised every morning before breakfast.
But the great trial of cheek is when the lawyers arise to manufacture testimony, to create law, invent precedents, reform justice, remodel virtue, regenerate truth, sanctify the jury, educate the judge, annihilate the witness, and look daggers, disease and death at each other.
The juror tries his cheek by sitting on two jurors at once, borrowing money from both parties, and dining with their attorneys, sleeping through the trial, and rendering a verdict that astonishes the court, bankrupts the plaintiff, and kills the defendant.
2£TJIE "old girls" seem to be making a profitable business of suing for breech of promise in England. A recent number of the London Times reported three cases on one page, in which the average age of the ladies claiming compensation for the injuries to their affection was 43, and of the male defendants 67. One of the three ladies was under 30 years of age, and obtained damages from an unwilling lover of 76. One "blighted being," of 50 got $2,500 from a villainous lover of 60.

The papers have been giving much space to an account of the trial of Cheek/ at BrookviUe. The editor of the Cincinnati Timet and Chronicle has Seen many court trials, and thinks every one of them was a trial of cheek. They differed from the Brookville affair, in being the trial, not of one Chebk, but of many.
The Judge tries his cheek by looking like Wisdon at ft council of prophets. The little law scattered through the cext-books, statutes and reports, is only the foam that lies upon the ocean of his judicial profundity. From the heights of intellect and justice he sheds down infallibility and equity: he beams, an oracle, he shiues a god. The lesft ne knows the wiser he looks.
