THE

Terre Haute, Ind.

FOR GOVERNOR IN 1872,

Washington C. De Pauw,

OF FLOYD COBNTT.

SATURDAY, AUGUST 26,187J.

New York Post wants Mr. Roscoe Conkling to announce that be is not a candidate for re-election to the United States Senate, as one step whereby Republican harmony in the State can be secured, and the Legislature chosen in the interest of that party. Which Mr. Conkling will never do. Republicans can have harmony jusfc when everybody "will step upon Mr. Conkling's platform, and kiss his ."hand as a token of villeinage. The Senatorial Adonis is an able representative of that typical white man who "divided his differences" with the Indian upon one occasion, but forgot to mention "turkey" once for the poor savage.—Indianapolis Journal.

It strikes us with force, if the editor of the Indianapolis Journal writes many more such paragraphs as the above, his paper will have to take a back seat in the Republican synagogue, or the Indianapolis P. M. will be kicked out of office. Why, this "Senatorial Adonis" is the peculiar "Man Friday" of the President. He is the loving Pythias of the Presidential Damon. When he visits the Federal Capital at Long Branch', he is most graciously received at the "Cottage by the Sea," and is given the patronage of the Empire State. He is Grant's particular friend, and has perhaps a greater influence with him than any other man. It will not do, Mr. Journal, to step on his Senatorial toes if you do, off goes W. R. H.'^official head, and then—there will be lamentation in the house of the Journal Company.

THE

country will be highly interested

in a report which is promised us from a Commissioner who appears to have been sent to South Africa to gather information relative to the diamond fields. Why the House of Representatives should have sent all the way to South America to make inquiries about diamond mines is not very clear. We own no diamond mines nor any real estate in Africa. It is not even proposed to annex the diamond-bearing country why, then, do we need special reports from special Commissioners about the value of that portion of British territory We are relieved to know that Mr. Commissioner Riley only recommends that the South Africans bore wells to supply their wants—water being as scarce as diamonds.—N. Y. Tribune.

This is only in keeping with this Administration in sending a score or two of gentlemen who desired to take an European tour, off at the public expense, as rigents to sell the new government bonds to foreign capitalists. They travelled all over England, Scotland, Ireland, Europe, Asia and Africa, and then reported that they could not sellany. Afterwards Jay Cooke & McCollough took hold of the matter and by putting several millions in their own pockets, succeeded iu selling a large portion of what the Government desired to sell, at about 90 cents on the dollar, net. This is apart of the magnificent financial policy, which is so much praised by the officeseekers who fawn around the Long Branch horse-fancier.

THIS longer we live the more does the great argument, "You are another," seem to us an unanswerable reply. Thus, at the Spiritualist Camp Meeting at Walden Pond, Mass., last week, Mr. Wheeler, on behalf of the men, said, "It is a mighty hard thing for a decent man to get a good wifewhereupon Mr. D. M. Lawrence and a maiden named Susie responded that "good husbands were as difficult to find as good wives." Here, you see, was a dead lock, totally antagonistic to any wedlock whatever. "He" hadhissay, and "she" had her say there was the argumentum ad hominem and the arg. ad em,-—but what came of all? -*1

REPORTS from Southern Hungary tell of frightful inundations and distress. Vineyards, orchard a, and wheat fields constitute the chief wealth of the people who inhabit the regions which have been devastated. Taken altogether, this has been a most unfortunate year for the people of Europe where war has not swept the fields, famine and blight have disappointed the hopes of the husbandman.

BELOW we give the most interesting part of the second letter of the correspondent of the New York Tribune, iu re lation to the visit of the scientific gentle men to this city. It will be read with interest by all our citizens:

INDIANA POMS, Aug. 18.—The Science Association—to cut a long title shortarrived here this afternoon, having returned from Terre Haute. The citizens of that place—acity of20,000inhabitants, many of them descendants of the old Hugenotfamilies, who settled it and gave, it its name—provided a reception for the Association with which nothing hitherto done by any city can compare. Not only was everything that man is ordinarily in want of provided to the members Of the Association free of cost, but every citizen that owned a horse and wagon placed, them at the service of the members, and drove around to the various objects of interest in the c|ty and vicinity. On the evening of the'arrival a meeting was held in the Opera House, a large building, whose design, interior decorations, and accoustic qualifications justify its &9lgp4ti6n it would deserve praise in any city. Col. R. W. Thompson, a lawyer of Terre Haute, celebrated for his powers as an orator, delivered an address of welcome, whioh approached nearer to absolute eloquence than anything which has been heard since the Association met In the speeches of repiy b^ Profs. Gray, Hunt and Barker, perhaps the point which elicited greatest interest" was the mention by Prof. T. Sterry Hunt of the feet that the block coal was especially and peculiarly adapted for the manufacture of Bessemer steel. The daffstf iron rails, he said, are ppidly ptwipg away, and the time ie

'S ^V: a 4M\

coming when they will be as antiquated as a copper hatchet or a flint arrow-head. His familiarity with the details of the Bessemer process enabled him to speak with certainty as to the suitability of- block coal for this manufacture and he hoped soon to find steel replacing iron through out the country. Prof. Barker made a facetious point complimentary to the people of Terre Haute on the absence of sulphur in their minerals. Prof. B. Waterhouse Hawkins delivered his wellknown lecture on the dragons of geology —the pterodactyls—the chief merit of which was, as usual, in the brilliant black-board illustrations, which were vociferously applauded. It was thought, however, that the proportion of pterOfcaurians of flying lizards to the rest of the lecture was not as large as might have been expected. There was a perpetual endeavor from first to last throughout the lecture to make points against the Darwinian theory of development, and this endeavor simply interfered with the exposition of the facts which were strictly within the provinces of the lecture.

Prof. Hunt made mention of the object which nowmo3t promptly greets the olfactories of a visitor to Terre Haute. Within a few weeks that city has rejoiced in the possession of an oil well, and the gas from it penetrated the whole town during the night that the Association slept there. A hotel owner was boring, it is said by some, for water by others, for oil, in an open lot in the vicinity of the Terre Haute House. At all events, he struck oil at a depth of 1,635 feet. At this point the stories vary, one of them being that he bored to a further depth, 1,926 feet in all, and struck a sulpher water which was good for anything else but to supply drinking water for that, it was simply unendurable. 80 he came back to his oil first, however, trying a place down the river bank, where he struck sulphuretted hyrogen gas. This remains as a natural curiosity, and is operated by small boys, who charge a considerable fee for setting it on fire and extinguishing it— the latter part of the business being, of course, the most arduous. The flame produced is very violent, and about four or five .feet, high. It is generally supposed by unscientific visitors that "this gas might be used by the city for illuminating purposes, but if it be as Prof. Vander Weyde declares, the sulphuretted —not carburetted hydrogen—its use for such purposes is out of the question. Its smell justifies the belief of the Professor. The,hotel proprietor returned to his oil malting a sulphur bathing establishment of his first well, and boring what was now his third, in the same open lot. And at 1,635 feet he again struck the oil, and this time, about a fortnight ago, began to pump it. He has met, of course, the usual luck of such enterprises. His pump breaks every few hours, or something goes wrong. The best that has been done is one spell of 14 hour's steady work, in which about 20 barrels were raised. New machinery is expected to pump 40 barrels per day. Such as there is, was hard at work to-day, seemingly with success but nobody could give more than a guess at the amount, which was probably at the rate of more than 10 and less than 20 barrels. Prof. Hunt says that the oil-bearing limestone which gives this flow is that of Chicago and the shores of Lake Ontario, just beneath the Devonian system and the Genessee Slates. The oil is identical with of Pennsylvania.

Narrow Gauge Railways in Canada. Oui neighbors beyond the St. Law rence have set us an example which the communities of this vicinity, we think, will not be slow in following when the whole subject of narrow gauge roads has become fully understood. The people of Toronto and the population of the neighboring counties have combined to secure the construction of several hundred miles of railroad, which is looked upon only as the beginning of a network of roads soon to permeate the whole country. The charter for the first of these passed in 1868, and in 1869 construction was begun under the supervision of the eminent engineering firm of London, Sir Charles Fox & Son. The lines are largely built by local subscription, and by bonuses of bonds from townships along the respective lines. It may be mentioned for the edification of those of our own population who endeavor to sell county and town bonds which have been donated for railroad purposes, that many of these Canadian twenty-year 6 per cent, bonds have found a market at from 100 to 103.

The Toronto & Nepissing Railway Company is constructing a road from Toronto northward 85 miles to tap the Gull River Navigation, with a branch 18 miles to the town of Lindsay. It is intended hereafter to extend this line 120 miles still further to the north. The Toronto, Grey & Bruce Railway has completed a considerable portion of a line, which will be 200 miles long, and reaching Lake Huron at Kincardine and Owens Sound, will compete with the Northern of €anada (Collingwood} for' the thrbligh "western trade, The lines pas3 through a broken country with high summits to surmount gradients 104: feet are sometimes used, and curves of

5850"

feet radius. The average amount of earthwork is 15,000 cubic yards to a mile,* cuttings are fifteen feet six inches, and embankments twelve feet six inches wide at formation level width of bridges between parapets eleven feet.

The rails are of i^on forty pounds, laid on ties 7 feet 6 inches long by 8 inches 5 inches placed 2 feet 6 inches apart gauge, 3 feet 6 inches. Mr. Edmund Wragge, who was one of the engineers of the victoria Bridge, and who within the past week has visited, in company with Mr. Fox, of London, the locomotive and other estaDltehmfehfeof Philadelphia, is chief engineer of these lines, and originator of many important improvements connected with their construction and maintenance.—Philadelphia Press.

The Westliche Post gives an interesting summary of the arguments which are generally presented by the admirers of President Grant in apology for his administration.

iWe:

translate it as fol

lows: "Grant has appointed a crowd of his relations to office, and this is called nepotism. Nepotism has always been, ..esteemed a disgraceful thing but when Grant was poor he was under obligations to many persons, and it only proves that he has a good heart wheu he takes care of his former creditors and his poor relations at the public cost. Never mind about the nepotism. What Grant does is Well done.

Iu the San Domingo affair Grant has oraered measures of war without getting authority from Congress. Since he has done this he must unquestionably have a right to do it. There is no need for argument to prove his right. What GranI does is unquestionably and without the least donbt always right.

Grant said in his message he would leave the San Domingo question in the hands of the people, and do nothing further in the matter but nevertheless the war vessels of the United States have kept Baez in power in that island, and at the instance of the President $150,000 has been sent to Baez to pay the rent of the Bay of Samana, which' the Senate has never agreed to—facts which brand the of the President with falsehood. IT.L account. Grant said ft,

and that is sufficient."" This language is not exaggerated. It

the Administration. The people judge ft justly, and will act upon it as It merits.

THE report that a compromise will be effected in the French Assembly, by which M. Thiere's term will lie prolonged ogly to the end of the term

of the Assembly, looks reasonable enough but such a termination of the struggle will hardly satisfy M. Thiers. Old as he is, he has still great ambition indeed, he is reported to have expressed the ardent wish that he might be the Washington of France. But a majority of the Assembly is monarchist, and it does not relish the suggestion that M. Thier's hold upon the Presidency shall outlast its official existance. Though this Assembly was only chosen to make terms of peace with Germany, it is not ready to surrender its self-constituted power to prepare a Government for France. The Assembly may grant M. Thiers a fixed term of office, but- it will be very likely itself to outlive his official eareer, nevertheless.
