MONDAY, OCTOBER 30, 1871.
Presidential Out-look.
Political matters are beginning to shape themselves rapidly, preparatory to the coming struggle of 1872. Like cautious Generals, the leaders are feeling their way by gradual approaches and testing the strength of the enemy in occasional skirmishes. So far as yet determined, the Republican party evinces much strength of organization more than the Democracy supposed it had. In Ohio and Pennsylvania this strength was rather unexpected,, and the leaders of the Democratic party are alarmed lest they will not be able to carry the Keystone State, and thereby lose the Presi dential election. Pennsylvania and Indiana must both be carried by the Democracy, or they can not hope to have anything to say as to how matters shall be conducted at the White House during the next four years after the expiration of General Grant's term. There can not be any reasonable fiuurii\g different from this assertion. Then, can the Democratic party, "pure and simple," carry those States in one year from the seventh day of next month There is nothing in the signs of the times, which indicates that it can. On the contrary, the indications are most decidedly that It can not. What, then, will the Democracy probably do under the circumstances!
There are two propositions made by portions of the Democratic press. First, that the Democratic party disband, and its members nnite with all opposed to the present Administration, and by thus forming anew party, be able to carry the coming Presidential election, and oust the legion of corruptionists who have debauched the public morals and established precedents calculated to destroy our free institutions.
The second proposition advocated by a large portion of the Democratic press of the country, is for the party not to disband, but to make no nominations for the Presidential race, but wait until the Radical and Conservative wings of the Republican party make their nominations, and then vote for the best men standing on the most liberal and progressive platform. By this means the Democratic party, evidently holding the balance of power, has it in itself to say which of the wings shall succeed.
Will either of these programmes be adopted by the Democratic party? We are of the opinion that the Perm critic party will eventually adopt the:ecnd proposition. Should this be done, the party acting in opposition to the Grant Administration will beable to overthrow it, and crush out forever in this Government an unmanly radicalism which is disgraceful to the age iu which we live. If this movement on part of the Democratic party^i* to be regarded by its members as a sacrifice, the well being of the country demands that the sacrifice be made. If this is to be regarded a& unprecedented in the history of the Democratic party, patriotism and Christian philanthropy requires the good example to be established, aud throughout all the future on similar occasions, followed.
This programme prevents Gen. Grant from being President auother four years, aud euables the members of the Democratic party, by throwing their influence either way, to determine who shall. Is there any other way to defeat the present Administration, and soatter to the winds all the rings, combinations, and a host of corruptionists which have for years revolved around Washington
LOCKPORT, Oct. 30, 1871.
Editor of Terre Haute Gazette I am happy to iut'orm you that the citizens of the township of Riley have subscribed the required sum of §10,000 to the capital stock of the Cincinnati & Terre Hauto Railroad. Old Riioy is not to be behind her sister towns trips, in railroad facilities, but keeps pace with the spirit of improvement.
Yours, itc. P. II.
THE
LEK.
We are glad to be able to announce the above, and understand that Riley township, rather than not have this railroad, would have subscribed double the above amount of stock.
This is all that the oouipany required of this county, and we expect now soon to see this very desirable road rapidly being built.
Funny.
Some fellow in New York City, as will be seen in another column, arrested Secretary Boutwell on last Friday for the small claim of $2,000,000, said to be due him, for suggesting to the Secretary his present "financial policy," which said Secretary agreed to pay for but now, after having adopted the same, fails and refuses so to do. The only thing which puzzles our brains about this case is, that any one ever supposed that Secretary Boutwell had a "financial policy.'' if he has, we would be most delighted, if the plaintiff in this action would explain to an anxious public what it is.
editors of the Terre Haute$A*KTTE and Express are quarreling at a fearful rate. Capt. Allen seems to be very much excited, but the

•1 Man and Wife Dragged from Thpir Home by Disguised M«-n and Tarred and Feathered—Arrest of Some of the
Miscreants. A few nights ago about twenty persons, with faces blackened and clothes disguised, visited the house of Mr. Barrett, living iu Viroqua, Wisconsin, and seized him and his wife. Some held him while others stripped her entirely naked, bound her hand and foot, tied a rope around her feet and dragged her into the yard as men would drag a hog. Then she was hauled about for some time amid jeers and derisive shouts, and then a coat of tar and feathers was applied to tier body. The fiends then selected a rouifh rail, and with her feet still tied, and despite her screams of pain, forced her limbs apart, thrust the rail between them, and bore her into a field, where she was thrown down and left.
Returning to the house they subjected Mr. Barrett to nearly every possible indignity, then tarred and feathered bim, and carried him to the place where his wife was, and dumped him beside her and left.
The man and women, after some time, got loose from their fastening, cleaned themselves as well as they could, and returned to the house. The women was very badly injured.
Thirteen.persons were arrested and examined on Tuesday and Wednesday of this week. Their names are James Cranda.ll, David Crandall, P. J. Lowerie, Sorel Starr, Comfort Starr, Charles O-lell, James Wilson, Alfred Far, Arthur Rood, Arthur Hagerman. Willie Peabody, who has been in jail for stealing, Chaney Wood and H. P. Proctor.
The cause which led to this brutal outrage was the suspicion that Barrett was living with the woman unlawfully but it has been proved that they were lawfully man aud wile, married December 13, 1870.

in the Washington Sunday
who argues that President
Giant's Seneca sandstone is exceedingly poor material for building purposes, gives an account of an interview with Mr. Thomas Berry, a builder in that city. In this interview he had the following conversation with Mr. Berry "Reporter-—You have heard, I suppose, that Gen. Grant is a heavy stockholder in the Company. What means do you suppose were used to get him to invest his money in it? "Mr. Berry—Good nature, I suppose Sandstone business was new to him. "Reporter—You mean that the General was a better judge of leather than sandstone "Mr. Berry—Well, have it so."
The idea that General Grant ever put any money into the Seneca Sandstone Company is a new one. He holds twen-ty-five thousand dollars stock in the concern, but nobody has supposed at he paid any cash for it. Indeed, there is no doubt that it was a present to him, made just as other presents have been, with a view of eulisting his official power and influence in the service of the com pany. That this purpose has been accomplished is evident from his appointment of Mr. Henry D. Cooke to be Governor of the District of Columbia. Mr. Cooke owns §240,000 stock in this company, and lias used every means to cause the authorities of the District to purchase the stone for all public purposes. Mr. Berry is evidently much better informed on the subject than the reporter when he says that it was jjood nature which induced General Grant to engage in this speculation. Yes, it was the good nature which disposes a man to be kind toward those who make him presents and increase his possessions.—N. Y. Sun.
A Mysterious Death.
Instances of mysterious disappearance seem to multiply in our great cities. Scarce a day elapses that the announcement of some missing person is not made in our metropolitan journals. Occasionally the missing one is found alive and in health, but far oftener there are no tidings, or the one sought is recognized in the dead at the morgue, dragged thither, perchance, from a watery bed, or found in some out-of-the way spot, where a suicide or an assassin's hand had delivered the finishing stroke. How many unfortunates thus found or who disappear forever from the sight of relatives and friends have met their fate by accident, by reason of sudden insanity, or through the darker agencies of crime aud passion, who shall tell? Not till the sea and the grave give up their mysteries can such statistics he supplied. Oh£ of the saddest, as well as most mysterious, death.* occurring of late is that of Theodore Pryor, of Brooklyn, N. Y., son of Roger A. Pryor, an ex-rebel general aud journalist, but^vho, since the war, has practiced law in New York city. Young Pryor disappeared from his home in Brooklyn on the 15th inst. On the evening of that day he left his father's house to take a short walk, and was not seen again alive by his friends. His absence was noticed, and his disappearance advertised. Monday morning last a body was found iu the East river and identified as that of young Pryor. The manner of his death cau only be conjectured. But a peculiar sadness attaches thereto, for he is said to have been a young man of bright promise and win niuii manners. He had, we are told, but little more than a year ago been graduated at Princeton with higher honors than have ever before been won in that institution by the most distinguished ot its alumni. The intervening period had been spent by him in great part at Cambridge. in Englaud, where he won prize iu mathematics. A few mouths ago he returned to the United States, and has since been prosecuting the study of the law in the office of his father. And thus another mysterious is resolved into the certainty of'a still more mysteriou death.

publishers give the
following interesting statements as to his habits of composition. He writes with inconceivable rapidity, in a large, sprawl ing hand, lines wide apart, and words so thinly scattered about that some of hi? pages remind one of the famou» description of a page of Napoleon's manuscript —a scratch, a blot aud a splutter. Writingso hastily, he writes with some inaccuracy, and as he fiuds correction very irksome, he hands his manuscript over to some one familiar with his handwriting, to be prepared for the press. It is then set up, the rough proof corrected, and a fair revise handed to the author. This he reads with extreme care, and makes so many corrections, erasures and additions, that it is sometimes cheaper and less laborious to reset the whole than to "correct" from his proofs. A second proof is then prepared for him, and sometimes a third ana a fourth before his critical judgment is satisfied and the stereotyper is allowed to cast the plates. It will be noticed that in the preparation of copy Mr. Beecher's habits are directly opposite to those of Mr. Greeley, who prepares his copy with great care, punctuating every sentence, marking every capital letter and paragraph, and in short completing bis work before it leaves his hands. The ••ompositor and proof-reader have only to follow copy to be sure of coming out right. Mr. Beecher's impetuous temperament rebels against sucn laborious finish.—RoioePia Newspaper Reporter.

outrage upon a representa
tive of the United States is reported from Mexico. The bandit Trevino raised the standard of rebellion against Juarez, and took possession of Monterey. His first act was to levy on the citizens for $50,000. Of this sum $1,500 was demanded from Mr. Ulrich, the United States Consul. The Consul raised the American flaa, and protested in the name of his Government against the demand. Trevino,. with that contempt for the Government now common among foreigners, intimated to Ulrich that unless be paid up he should be thrown into prison. Ulrich, apprehensive of indefinite confinement in a Mexican dungeon, paid the money.

DRY GOODS
To the Citizens of Terre Haute!
SATURDAY, OCTOBER 38,
We shall throw open to the public, the large extension to our store which has been in course of construction during the past six weeks. Upon the morning of that day we shall inaugurate
A GRAND OPENING CELIBRATI0N SALE
that vvill eclipse anything of tbe kiud ever before heard 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 Good- Monopoly with PPiich we have had to contend. But under the banner on which we have written, "All goods sold for Cash," "No High Prices," No big proflts," "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 Goods establishment in this part of the State. It is clear that the masses of the people are with us and that they appreciate our efforts to give them the
BEST OF GOODS AT THE LOWEST PRICES!
This great growth in our business has been right iu 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 the future, we shall upon
SATURDAY, OCT. 28,
make afresh onslaught upon high prices. To this end we shall place on sale over
25,000 Spools of a celebrated make of Spool Cotton at 3c a spool. 25.000 Spool of Coats9 best six cord Spool Cottoii at 5c a spool. 5,000 y'ds of genuine Merrimack Prints at Stand 10 cts. 5,000 y'ds of genuine Cocheco Prints at 9 and 10 cts. 5.000 y'ds of best Sprague Prints at 9 and 10 cts. 5,000 y'ds of best Pacific and Garner Prints at 9 and lO cts.
The above stock of the very best prints, are the most beautiful styles we have ever offered. Every new and pretty pattern of the season is among them, including an elegant assortment of English robe figures. These handsomest styles of the best prints we could not now buy ourselves, for less than 12£ cts. at wholesale in New York. The other stores are not generally keeping them, but where they do they are usually charging 15 cts. a yard for them. 5,000 y'ds of good Common Prints at 5 cts. 5,000 y'ds of Better Prints at 6 cts. 5.000 y'ds of Fast Colored Prints at 8 cts.
We have been preparing for this great sale for more than six weeks, and our New York partners have been scouring the market for special bargains in new and elegant goods with which to inaugurate our opening. Our entire stock of

These muslins will be of the celebrated makes of "Amoskeag," "Atlantic A," "Stark A," "Pacific Extra," "Pacific H," "Indian Head," Western A. A," and other equally as good makes. These goods were bought by us weeks ago, and as we can not now replace them at the price. We shall refuse to wholesale them preferring to give them to our customers. Any merchants attempting to get these goods in a clandestine manner will have their names published. We intend them- for the people, not for the "Dry Goods Ring."
Through-special*exertions we have been enabled to bring together a greater con centration of bargains for this greatsale than we have ever before had under the roof of any one of our stores. We have received some extraordinary drives in Furs. One of the chief attractions therefore, will be
A GREAT SALE OF NEW AND ELEGANT FURS!
