FOE GOVERNOR IN 1&72,

Washington C. De Pauw,

OF FLOTD C'OPNTY.

FRIDAY, OCTOBER 27,187J.

THE Germans of the City qf New York have resolved to support mono but honest men for office, irrespective of party. This is a good example, and it would be well for the country, if others besides the Germans would do likewise.

A (iKNTLKMAN who has been connected with the railroad interests ot this city for many years, says if the Cincinnati fe Terre Haute Railroad Company run their track through the city on First or Water streets, it will be ol more solid benefit to Terre Hauto than all the other railroads combined.—Journal. --i'*:?.

There can be no doubt but the gentleman referred to by the Journal is a man of good common sense. But few people in this community ever doubted the great benefit this city would derive from this road. Every interest connected with our future prosperity demands the building of this road, and we are most happy in being able to announce that it will soon be put under contract, and prosecuted to completion with all possible dispatch.

THE total product of gold and silver in the United States for the year 1870, as estimated by Afr. R. W. Raymond, United States Commissioner of Mining Statistics, reaches $60,000,000 California contributing $25,000,000 and Nevada $16,000,000 to this amount. In addition to the bullion exported and that coined, a large amount of the precious metals is used in manufactures here. Gold to the value of from $9,000,000 to $13,000,000 is used annually by jewellers and others, a part of which is coin, however, while silversmiths and silver-platers melt up large quantities of fine silver bars. Mr. Raymond's estimates of the gold and silver production are higher than those which have been generally accepted but lie has evidently taken great pains to arrive at accurate conclusions, and he gives with clearness and at some length the methods by which he has reached the figures which he assumes to be correct.

MASSACHUSETTS people, though they have in some respects schools as good as any in the world, are obliged to hear them sometimes sharply criticised. Prof. Agassiztold the Teachers' Convention in Boston last week that he thought in public education that "too much was made of the memory and too little of the mind." "There were," in his opinion, "too few teachers and too large classes or schools. These large schools reminded him of barracks for soldiers rather than friendly places where children should he taught." Other evils are that one man is required to teach too many branches, in all of which he cannot be proficient that text books are too much the work of men who write not from their knowledge, but as a trade and that there is too little instruction in nature, which can be comprehended by the smallest child. Physical geography, geology, botany, zoology, physiology, should be taught a9 well as grammar. At the same meeting, Dr. Peabody urged strongly the study of words, because these "by their changes show phrase of progress." Dr. Peabody also set forth the importance of the study of languages, not only of French and German, but of Greek aud Latin. He said that English grammar is generally of no use what ever until a man has studied Latin or French.

Speaking Out.

The New Albany Ledger, one of the very ablest Democratic papers in the State, says of the political surroundings "Tue dominant party will never consent to lay aside a weapon that does it such good service. It will never allow the country to forget the war, as long as it is profited by the recollection of it aud as ion# as it is opposed by its old antagonist, the Democracy, it will have power to open the Presidential canvuss with a kindling of the war beeons, and a successful appeal to tho Union spirit.

If the dominant party is to be overthrown at all, it must bo dotto by deprlvii^ it of this power, and directing tho popular attention to other objects.

with

drawal of the Democracy from the field would, we think, affect this. Such a withdrawal would remove the war from our politics, and it is, perhaps, the onlj' thing that can so remove it. The formal retirement of a great historic party from a Presidential campaign, with the declaration thatit leaves to the people the duty of reckoning vith the party in power, would be a moral spectacle that would have the protoundest effect. It would vindloate completely and forever the patriotism of the Democracy, and it would force the dominant party to stand naked before the people for trial. That party could not impute disloyalty to its anta^onnist, except one born and one bred in its own oamp. It oould not boast that it had saved tfce Union, lor the people Would answer that they had saved the Union themselves. It could not draw its war sword, for there would be no enemy whom a wat sword could wound. It oould not assume that \fc was the monopolist of all loyalty, and the proper custodian of the nations life, for such an assumption would cause it to be laughed at. It would be bewildered by the novelty and danger of its position it would fill for its old weapon*, only to find thetn gone and In the room of its old autagonist it would find a new one. assailing it at the points where it i8 weakest, forcing it to fight on new ground, and compelling it to aeal in answers instead of accusations.". bbw——

Lawyers of the Past and Present Col. Forney writes: As marking the difference between the lawyers of the past and the present, I hwrd an anecdote of John Sargeant the other day, which shows how the giants estimated their services and by what sensitive and

rales they squared their actions. A distinguished merchant, still living, called upon tor his opinion in an

important case, which was duly prepared and sent by one of the students ot the great lawyer. The merchant opened the letter, and after glancing over it asked the student for the charge. He said he did not know the contents ot the paper and could not answer. The merchant then signed a blank check, and sent it back to Mr. Sareeant by the same hand, with a message that he should fill up the amount of his fee. This very student, now one of the leading members of the Philadelphia bar, graphically describes the effects of the communication. He says he saw a little man (Mr. Sargeant was of slight stature) so suddently tower into a giant. "Mr. entirely misunderstands me, sir! Go back to him, sir, and say for me that I am the last person living to fill up another man's check. If he will carefully examine the paper I sent, he will find my fee written in one of the corners." With this somewhat considerable flea in his ear the voung man retraced his steps to the merchant, when the opinion was carefully inspected, and written in very small letters, in the ancle of one of the pages, were the figures "$30."

We know a lawyer practiciog at the Terre Haute bar, who, under the precise circumstances of the above, would have filled up the check with $60, and then have sworn that the $30 iu the angle of the page, was a mere slip of the pen, and not intended to indicate the amount of his fee. .V"'

Don't all guess at once.

Art.

We fiud in the Peru (111.) Herald the following notice of our old friend and former compauion of the brush, R. P. Wrighf, brother of James D. Wright, artist of this city. It is iD relation to the frescoing ot the Congregational Church of that city: "The" ceiling is frescoed in ornamental pannels with centers of acanthus leaves. The cornice is a plain block-and-dental, with three beads worked on the fascia. The frescoing on the sides consists of pilasters in the form of triple columns. These pilasters frame the wiudows, vertically, and are continued in an arch surmounted by various ornaments, shells, groupes of acanthus leaves and scroll work. Three lotus leaves form the base of the columns where they are planted on the pedestals. This trinity of leaves and also of columns, hfeads and scrolls have a significance to those who believe in a triune God. The north end wall of the church is decorated by a deeply recessed arcade, supported by plain Doric columns. The arches curve from their columns to the center, two aud two, forming a vista of arches and columns. At the central meeting point of each two arches depends a reflector, while an imitation sky-light throws the imaginary light upon the reflectors and down through the arches, over cornice, capitals and columns. The floor of the arcade is of polished marble which reflects the lights and shadows above it with the distinctness of glass. The floor terminates at a broad marble step, above which are two open doors disclosing au inner wall of what the imagination might construe into a cryptic gallery.

The pulpit is a beautiful specimen of the modern taste in sacred furniture, plain and practicable. It has atop that can be adjusted to the stature of the person using it. Behind the pulpit is the "Bishop chair," a stately bit ol elegance, economy and comfort.

The unmistakable impression upon all who enter the church is that of rest and room. The silvery gray coolness of the color seems to ventilate the room, freshen the atmosphere, and predispose the mind to that serene composure which becomes the house of God.

Too much praise cannot be given the artist, R. P. Wright. The various places of work which have been executed by him, among them the stage scenes and curtains of Opera Hall, LaSalle, and the Catholic Church of this place, all show evidence of talent of which any might be proud."

Mr. Wright possesses in an eminent degree all the required power of a great artist, and it has been one of the regret9 of our life that he has not always been situated so tlvat he could have summoned all of his great endowments into one concentrated effort, and fixed it forever on immortal canvas.

Russia Arming.

Russia is said to be arming nerseif swiftly and powerfully at every point. Immense supplies of machinery, steam boilers and wire rigging have been sent to the Southern ports, Cronstadt is being strengthened, and engineers are laying out new lines of defense in various quarters. Meanwhile th# regiments of the line are at work in competitive rifle shooting, the cavalry and artillery are being remodeled on improved principles, and all these things are being pushed with the utmost dispatch. Can it be that Russia doubts the good faith of Prussia, or is it that she dreads her power? That one or both these suppositions is true there can be little doubt. It is said that a profound dread of afresh uprising iu Poland, a universal insurrection, devised and prompted .by German publicists and backed by German bayonets, is the true secret of all these formidable preparations. The explanation is plausible as regards the Western frontier, but scarcely accounts for the vast operations in progress on the Black Sea.

It is not to be denied that the relative position of Russia in Europe is seriously modified by late events, events that have placed the control of more than a million and a half splendid soldiers, flu&Tied with victory, at the uncontrolled disposition of a single power, and almost a single will. At the same time it suggests but a sad prospect for the people, this bristling into warlike panoply of one great military power in the East the moment the great military power of the West has been struck dowu. There is nothing it would seem, but fighting, or preparing to fight, and the accumulation of huge debts, that labor at last is called on to pay, to "be looked for while present dynasties subsist and oonfront each other. Time will show what is to come of the Czar's gigantic preparations, but at present they have every indication of beisg forerunners of a conflict beside which the Crimean war will seem comparatively trivial, and which may have a greater effect on the future of Europe than even the dreadful contest the thunder of which has only just passed away.—N. Y. Times.

NEARLY all the newspapers fail Into the error of referring to the President's recent proclamation as a declaration of martial law in South Carolina. The President hasjiot declared martial law, and has no power to do so under the act of Congress commonly known as the Ku Klux law. Martial law is the abrogation of all law except the will of the military commander and if courts and civil officers continue to perform their functions, it is only by bis permission. What the President has done is to suspend the privileges of the writ of habeas corpus in the nine counties in South Carolina specified in his proclamation, and this is fill he has authority to do. The difference between this and a declaration of martial law is very wide. The civil law is still in force in those oounties, and the authority of the State Courts is not lessened except in one particular—their process will not release a man arrested by United States officers for an offense against a United States statute. It should be borne in mind, fhrther, that to prevent the possibility of unjust imprisonment, the Ku Klux law provides that the case of each person arrested shall at once be brought oefore the Grand Jury of the Federal Court, and if the Jury do not find a bill of indictment he shall be forthwith released. —New York Tribune.

THE Chicago Kmes publishes some very grave charges against Senator Pomeroy of Kansas. It alleges that Mr. Pomeroy, having fallen under the power ofaooiinWfiiitwftomOhio awTcar-

man by being detected in a criminal Hasou with his wife, has not only paid Carman $6,000 of hush money, but procured bis appointment to office in the Pension Bureau at Washiguton, and also obtained places in the Interior Department for two of his sons while Mrs. Carman and another womau of similar character, named Mrs. Grant, were appointed on the solicitation of Senator pomeroy to positions in the Bureau of Engraving and Printing. These charges were first laid before the public about a mouth ago, and we have ever since expected some contradiction of them from Senator Pomeroy, but none has come. If they are true, they exhibit a degree of corruption and vice among Republican officials at Washington which even the robberies of the Tammanv Ring do not exceed in atrocity and sliamelessnejsa.— JST.

that will eclipse anything of t|ie kiud ever before hetwd of in the West. As we say this our minds naturally run back over the eighteen months of struggle with and triumph over, the outrageous Dry Goods Monopoly with which we have had to contend. But under the banner on which we have written, "All goods sold for Cash," "No High Prices," No big profits," "Courteous and Honorable treatment to all," and through the splendid support given-us by the people, we have not only triumphed in the contest, but our business has increased so rapidly that we have been compelled to build up the Entire Depth of our lot, thus giving us in our three floors and basement, by far the largest Dry Qoods establishment in this part of the State. It is clear that the masses of the people are with us and th^t they appreciate our efforts to give them the

BEST OF GOODS AT THE LOWEST PRICES!

This great growth in our business has been right in the face of the most persistent and malignant libels in the power of the "Dry Goods Ring" to utter. In recognition of our unparalleled success and, as an expression of our confidence in he re ha up on
