THURSDAY, JUNE 15,1871.
The Indianapolis Journal and Horace Greeley. The Indianapolis Journal (one of whose editors is a Federal office-holder) is out in a labored article this morning, against the nomination of Mr. Greeley by the Republicans, as their candidate in 1872. The Journal, as in duty bound, is for the renomination of General Grant. As one of the editors and proprietors is postmaster at Indianapolis, at a salary of $4,000 per annum, this might reasonably be expected, when we take into consideration how easily men are bought and sold in these latter days.
The editor concludes his article against Mr. Greeley, as follows "The 'Greeley movement' can have no strength outside which will possibly cause an anxious thought its only strength, or at least, its greatest strength, will be to foment and keep alive the unfortunate dissensions in New York, and render its- electoral vote a possibility for the Tammany candidate in 1872."
Aside from the idea that the Democratic party, can by any possibility be defeated in the State of New York, the remark, that "the Greeley movement can have no strength outside which will probably cause one anxious thought," is rather good. Here, in this portion of the State, "outside" of the influence of a few Federal office-holders, the thinking portion of the Republican party, greatly prefer Horace Greeley as their candidate for the Presidency in 1872, to-the re-nom-ination of President Grant. They regard the contest between them, as between brains and stolid stupidity. In fact we hardly know one influential Republican who is in favor of the re-nomina-tion of Graut. In the first place, they are in favor of the one term system, and in the next place they know, if the President is renominated, and by possibility elected, the host of political cormorants who have been preying off'of the Federal Treasury for years, will be retained. But they are warmly in favor of the one term doctrine. A doctrine which has not been violated but once during the last thirty-eight years, and that was in the case of Mr. Lincoln, in the very crisis of the rebellion, makhis re-election as much of an exception to the general current of events as was the rebellion itself. "The two-term doctrine was overthrown" in 1840 in the person of Mr. Van Buren, and it should never again be revived, except under circumstances as unprecedented as those which surrounded the re-electiou of Lincoln. Indeed, so thoroughly is it fixed in the public judgment, that never since the defeat of Van Buren has any party ventured to renominate its President, except in this one instance of Lincoln. Are the friends of Gen. Grant so infatuated as to imagine that they can set aside a rule thus firmly established? Is it in the vain hope of bringing himself within the exception that he has been trying to get up a sort of revival of the rebellion under theguiseof putting down the miserable Ku Klux Klan? That fiimsy humbug is being rapidly exposed, and long before the meeting of the National Convention, it will be probed to the bottom, and all of its originators and friends held up to the public detestation they so richly deserve.
What the philosopher of the Tribune will do, now that the Indianapolis Journal has come out against him, we do not know, but we are still impressed with the belief that he will remain statu quo, and fight it out on the line of policy upon which he commenced the battle—the one term doctrine. There has been no political demonstration anywhere in favor of General Grant's renomination, equal in magnitude to the one held a few days ago, in Union Square, New York, in favor of Horace Greeley. The editor of the most widely circulated Republican paper in the United States, made a brilliant show of strength on that occasion, and we do not wonder that Federal office holders, all over the country, like a flock of geese into which a a charge of cannister or grape has been fired, take the alarm.
HEAR the Chicago Tunes, the leading Democratic organ of the Northwest: "Somebody takes the trouble to telegraph from Georgia that Alexander H. Stephens has again been ventilating his views. "What of it? There is no law in the country to prevent Jeff Davis, Stephens, or any other man from making a fool of himself. And why prohibit persons from making fools of themselves when it is the only source of comfort the poor
devils
have in this world? Jeff. Davis, Stephens and the rest of the rebel crew who are still in the flesh, are as dead every way as John Randolph's phosphorescent mackerel. They resemble that decayed piscatory specimen also in many other respects. They never shine without stinking. They are, of course, unqualified nuisances but it is probably only death or the devil that will be able to abate them. Like many other decayed specimens of political nastiness, they will go out one of these days with a bad smell until then, the best that can be done is to keep to the windward of them." —_
THE New York Journal of Commerce eays "A few politically dead men like Mr. Jefferson Davis go about the country grumbling over the Lost Cause, and venturing their rage upon accomplished facts. That such meu remain above ground to stir up strife will make^omegood people, who
have

Fine Art.
Those of our readers, who have visited the studio of the artist, W. R. Freeman, any time during the last few weeks, will remember the most beautiful paintings of Maud Muller and the little child watching the sand running through the hourglass. As works of true art, they are of the highest merit. We hardly recollect of seeing in the most celebrated collections of paintings on the Continent more exquisit specimens of the artists' pencil. They are gems brim full of genius and happy thought. Maud Muller, is most appropriately conceived. The moment the artist has chosen is the one where, "The Judge looked back as he climbed the hill, And saw Maud Muller standing still."
And as we looked upon the sweet, innocent face of the unsophisticated country girl, dressed in all the simplicity of rural life, but betraying a form of matchless symmetry, we sympathized fully with the Judge, when he whispered to himself: "A form more fair, a face more sweet, Ne'er has it been my lot to meet."
The artist has done justice to the rustic conception of the poet, and the poet has had no greater delineator of his word painting, than the distinguished artist.
Apropos to this, we give in another column, a "genuine sequel" to Whittier's Maud Muller, which will be read with laughable interest by those familiar with that beautiful poem.
THE London Post has joined the thin ranks of those who oppose the Treaty of Washington. Its special complaint is as follows: "If once the principle is solemnly affirmed that acts are to be judged by rules subsequently made to fit them, international law at once becomes a chaos no country will know what its duties are to any other country." At the close of every war, acts are judged by rules made,subsequent to their commission, just in proportion as the war is decisive. The enforcement of such rules is the object of war. How much better, then, when the interests of two great nations require the adoption of rules partially new to one of them, that they should be acknowledged and applied without war. That such a result is possible in our day is one of the greatest, we may perhaps say th^ very greatest, achievement of modern civilzation.
A SILVER mountain has been discovered in Colorado near a little mining village known as Georgetown. The ore was first discovered in the "lide," and afterward several valuable lodes were struck. A correspondent of the Denver News was shown pieces of mineral, averaging from two hundred to three hundred pounds each, taken from this mountain,which when assayed gave a return of from 1,500 to 2,000 ounces per ton. As the mountain was near a village, the discovery could not be long kept a secret and as soon as the news got out there was such a general rush to the place of old and young, amateur and professional miners, that at a little distance it resembled a mammoth ant hill.
AT the Homeopathic Convention in Philadelphia, three ladies were admitted members of the Homeopathic Institute. The question presented itself not exactly on its merits, but in the form of a disputecFponit -Hf -tlic- construction of the constitution of the society. The ladies admitted are graduates of three medical schools, and are recommended each by three physicians, several of whose names are widely and favorably known. The practice of this school of medicine seems to have been more freely opened to ladies than that of the allopathic school, and, with the inevitable percentage of failures, some creditable successes are recorded in it.
Ix addition to the weight of woe which the French people are suffering, the harvest prospects are discouraging. Already, much of the seed which was sent to France by the citizens of the United States has perished. The condition of a nation thus afflicted with many trials, appeals to the sympathies of our own people and it is not unlikely that the Relief Committees, whose kindly offices did so much to relieve the distress of the suffering French last spring, may be again called upon to become the almoners of the bounty of Americans.
THE Washington Daily Patriot says: "The public service was never so universally corrupt and demoralized as it now is. Flagrant cases are daily—in fact almost hourly—brought to the notice of the President, but no effort is made to punish them. Partisanship rules, and if an office-holder is in favor of Grant's renomination he may commit any offence with impunity."
THE Legislature of New Hampshire has elected Hon. James A. Weston to the office of Governor. Mr. Weston was the Democratic Candidate at the last election and had a plurality of the popular vote.
Senator Pratt.
The Washington correspondent of the Cincinnati Gazette relates this incident of our junior Senator
Some time since two women, whose husbands had been killed in the Union army, presented their case to Senator Pratt, and asked him to obtain them places in the Departments. This, with some difficulty, he finally accomplished. Weeks afterward he received a call from these ladies, who, upon entering his parlor, began to unroll a bundle of very formidable size. Presently, the great pile of dry goods began to assume shape, and when one of the women grasped it, stood up in a chair, and held it as far aloft as she could reach, it proved to be a study wrapper for the Senator. For a gentleman so celebrated for his size the spread of the article must be immense. And thus held up by one and spread out by the other, it called to mind the main sail of a ship. After spreading out its numerous folds, so as to reveal its character and design, the visitors proceeded to tell the Senator that they had busied themselves for some time in making the wrapper, as a small return for the services he had rendered them when in need. But he at once surprised them by saying that while he fully appreciated their kind intentions, there was a law which absolutely forbade his receiving it. This was so contrary to all they had heard of law, or the practice of it in Washington, that they expressed their doubts whereupon Senator Pratt took down the paper volume and read them the text. His visitors were greatly digappointed. They had evidently spent much time, and also much money which was not easily spared, to make this wrapper, and just what to do they did not seem able to determine. But the Senator eplved the matter by offering, if they
would tell him the cost to pay them in full, take the wrapper, and wear it as a present which he appreciated.
It is not in size alone that Senator Pratt differs from quite a number of his Congressional associates.
I BELIEVE the answer must be simply that it is not good for man to live only among what is most beautiful that he is a creature incapable of great satisfaction in anything on earth, and that for him to possess, in any kind, the utmost that earth can give, is the surest way to cast him into lasitude and discontent.—Buskin.

THE QUESTION DISCUSSED.
The following-conversation recently took place between parties living in this city, and being* reported to us, we give it as nearly as possible word for word.
Mrs. B. to Mrs. R.—I saw you with a new dress on the other day as you were passing my house. How much did you pay for it? Mrs. R.—Fifty-five cents a yard.
Mrs. B.—Why, they asked me 75 cents a yard for it!
Mrs. R.—Perhaps you saw it at some other place than where I got mine. Mrs. B.—Why, where did you get yours?
Mrs. R.—I bought it at the NEW YORK CITY STORE. Mrs. B.—Do you then trade at Foster Brother's? I wouldn't buy a cent's worth there.
Mrs. R.—Pray, why not? I always buy where I can buy the cheapest, and I am sure there is no pleasanter place in town to trade than Foster Brothers. They are polite and agreeable, and take a great deal of trouble to suit their customers, and are never impudent to you, as they are at some other stores in town, if you don't happen to get suited.
Mrs. B.—But I have been told that they didn't sell as cheap as they advertised to do, and that if I went there to trade I wouldn't get goods as cheap as they promised to sell them.
Mrs. R.—Why, they constantly ask you in their advertisements to cut them out and bring them with you that may see for yourself whether they do or not sell as they advertise. Some of the other dry goods merchants have been stuffing you. They all hate the New York City Store because it has put down prices. I have been surprised to hear certain dry goods merchants in town, who claim to be gentlemen, talking in the most false and slanderous manner of the firm of Foster Brothers.
Mrs. B.—I have sometimes thought myself that what they said was hurting them and helping Foster Brothers, for I am told that the latter are now doing a larger business than ever. How long have you been trading with them, and have you always found them reliable and their goods as represented?
Mrs. R.—I have traded with them ever since they opened, and have always been well satisfied. Once, however, I got a linen lawn that they warranted would wash. After I got it partially made—the breadths all gored—I thought I would cut off a small piece and try it. I was disappointed in finding that it faded quite badly. I was, I must admit, a little put out about it, for I knew that as it was cut out they would not exchange it, for I had already had a case of this kind with another store in town that had sold me a dress that was warranted to wash, but which faded, ami when I went back with it, they not only wouldn't allow me anything for it, but threw in with the refusal an unusual amount of impudence. However, I determined to take this dress back also, and give Fester Brothers a "blessing" at least for warranting it to me. Going in I happenad to meet Mr. Foste* himself, and I commenced at him in a manner neither "child-like" nor "bland." He asked lhe in a very quiet manner to explain the matter to him, adding, "There is nothing we dislike more than to make mistakes, but there is nothing that gives us more pleasure than correcting them." I explained the matter to him, when he said: "As our clerk warranted it to wash, Ave are, of course, in honor bound to make up your loss to you, whatever that may be. We would exchange it, only it is cut into so many pieces." You may judge I was surprised when he offered to return me half my moneg. I suppose I ou^ht to have been satisfied with that, but really the dress was of no value to me, and I told him so. "Then," said he, "we will take the goods back just as they are and return you
Mrs. B.—Really, Mrs. R., you are getting quite eloquent. I didn't know I should bring down upon my head so sharp a lecture, or I should have kept quiet. However, I am not sure but that there is some truth in what you say, and I promise at least to think the matter over. Perhaps I may conclude to try this firm myself, for, to tell you the truth, my friends are many of them telling me I am foolish to pay the old 'stores 20 or 30 per cent, more for goods than Foster Brothers are charging.
Mrs. R.—And I quite agree with them. Now to-morrow I am going around to the New YorK City Store to get some muslin, and if you will call around and go
We submit the above without comment. Evidently Mrs. R. is qnite able to take care of herself. We are certainly under great obligations to her for the good words she has spoken in our behalf. F. B.

Mrs. B.—You certainly were treated well, but do you think they still do things in that way? As your dress was lawn, you probably bought it when they first started. Perhaps they do different now.
Mrs. R.—I have every reason to think this is one of the settled principles upon which they do business. You must have certainly seen that they constantly advertise to return the money for all goods bought at their store that are not in every way satisfactory to tUe buyer. No other store in town will do that.
Mrs. B.—Now you speak of it, I do remember that they have been so advertising. But I have one objection to these gentlemen, of which I have not yet spoken, and that is that they are so personal in their advertisements.
Mrs. R.—Yes I heard Mrs. T. talking in that same way the other day, and I havn't a bit of patience with either of you. You go and listen for half an hour to the low, personal abuse heaped upon these men by some of their competitors, and then vou profess to be shocked and are virtuously indignant because this firm have simply dared to say what they have repeatedly offered to prove—that for years our dry goods stores have been charging unreasonably high profits. No one knows what they state to be a fact better than you do, for you and Mrs. T., and Mrs. H., and several others that I know, used to go to Indianapolis and Chicago for most all your dry goods previous to Foster Brothers bringing down the prices, and yet you stand by a*d see a combination entered into to drive them away from town, and you hear falsehoods told in regard to them weeks before they opened, and then after their opening you see everything .thrown in their way whereby their business may be obstructed—you see their small cash boys beaten in the streets—their goods piled at the door cut with knives—members of the firm assaulted in the streetsefforts made to entice away their help—and yet for all these you have not one single word of condemnation. You ought to be ashamed of yourself. For my part I glory in the pluck of these young men who do not propose to have any body ride rough-shod over them.
