OF FLOTD COUNTY.

TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 14, 1871.

Thieving Officials.

It will be recollected by our readers, that the Legislature, last winter, passed an act requiring the Auditor of State to distribute the School Fund to the various counties of the State, in order that it be loaned out on good security, so that the increase could be used in the education of the children of the State. It will be further recollected, that just as it was supposed this money wasabout to be distributed by Mr. Shoemaker, a suit was commeuced, and an injunction served on him, stopping this distribution, and leaving the money remain in his hands, or under his control. At that time honest men all over the State thought there was some rascality in this matter, but they attributed it to certain banks who had had the use of this money for years, rather than to the Auditor of State.

Now, however, the secret of the matter is beginning to leak out. In the Democratpublished at Columbus, (Ind.) a staunch Democratic paper, and in its issue of the 10th inst., we find the following paragraph: "Did not the rinpr, and in it we include Mr. Shoemaker, employ and pay the lawyers that prosecuted the Base We charge that Mr. Shoemaker, or another for him, employed, or assisted in employing, the lawyers that prosecuted the case of injunction against him, and we have the proof for the assertion. This evidence is not available for a newspaper controversy, but if the editor of the Sun (Seymour) can ninko it convenient to call upon us, we will produce the evidence upon which we found our charge—a witness whom he will not impeach."

Here is where the sharp practice comes in. The Auditor of State employs attorneys to prosecute an injunction against himself, to prevent him from discharging his duty according to law, and to enable him, at the same time, to put money in his pocket.

He succeeded. The writ of injunction issued, and lie secured his legal excuse for not distributing the school fund to the different counties. The fund thus lost seven per centum per annum on about $S00,000, and this honest Democratic officer hoped to put $50,000 per annum In his pocket, during his stay in office. Following the precedent set by some Republican officers with this same money, we have no doubt Mr. Shoemaker supposed he could do this great wrong to the children Of the Stat? and go unpunished. "He reckoned without his host." The people of this State will never submit to such robbery. They will have from those thieving officials, whether Democratic •or Republican, the last dollar of this interest. They will not stand idly by and see this sacred fund divided out among thieving State officials and dishonest bankers. The Attorney General, assisted by competent attorneys, and backed by every honest man in the State, is on the track of those fellows, and he will not stop until their dishonest' practices are brought to light, and they themselves punished. _______

Grant's Corrupting and Degrading Influence. In the Tribune of yesterday we find the following vigorous and«faithful comments upon the condition of thiugs which prevails under Gen. Grant's administration "By and by we shall have a new departure in revenue collection, such as (we trust) has just been decreed in municipal administration. We shall have a Collector appointed expressly to assess and secure the legal rates oi duty at the smallest possible cost to the Treasury, and with the least inconvenience to the merchants. The fat pickings of private secretaries and cousins from 'general orders,' warehouse leases, cartage, Ac., Ac., will he no longer enjoyed Senators and Representatives will no longerquarter their thriftless relatiyes, broken-down satelites on the Federal revenue in genteel but dishonest pauperism an*, the State will no longer be traversed and harried lor weeks in advance of every Stato Convention by platoons of Weighers, Deputy Collectors, and humbler tide-waiters, earning the money of the people *nd the smiles of power by draaorttiing postmasters and fanning the aspirations and hopes of office-seekers in order to pack delegations of the requisite docility ana subserviency. In short, it will vet be realised and insisted that custom houses shall be run as manufactories and mercantile bouses are intended and presumed to be—with the utmost economy consistent with efficiency, and in ntter independence of personal aspirations aha political conventions In that blessed time, we shall of course have a different sort of Collector under the existing regime, we can imagine no one fitter for the work requited of him than Mr. Thomas Murphy/'

We are glad to see that the Tribune, Iustead of continuing to attack the mere out-posts of that powerful system: of political depravity which Geti. Grant has fastened upon the Republican party, pro-" poses henceforth to deal with its author and most responsible manager, «ti- f.

°"r ""'The Union league Club. At a monthly meeting of the Union League Club, held at the Club House, in

New York, on Thursday evening, Nov. 9th, the following resolutions, presented by the Executive Committee, were unanimously adopted:

Resolved. That the signal triumph of the people of the city of New York in the late election, over the band of political conspirators who have so long usurped the powers of municipal taxation and Government, and perverted them into instruments of plunder and robbery, is a fit occasion for universal congratulation among honest men. It has demonstrated that even In great cities Republican Governisnota failure that the citizens of this great metropolis ean safely be trusted to toke oare of themselves that as the gen-

eral betrayal on their part of their political duties was the cause of their recent calamities, the general return to those duties is their true and suffi^ent* cure, and that nothing short of the complete extrication of municipal affairs from party politics can rescue them from corruption and abuse.

Resolved, That the labors of the canvass which culminated in Tuesday's victory were but the beginning of the great work of reform on which the people of this city have entered.

Let the beginning not be the end, but let the gocd work go on until the people, whose government this is, tufn all dis* honest, thieving, bribe-taking officials out of office and give theirplaces to honest men. Let the Reform movement, so auspicuously begun in New York, end at Washington.

DAN VOOEHEES has a two-column leader ia this morning's Terse Haute Journal, in which he attributes the recent woes of the Democracy to the. New Departure.—Indianapolis Journal.

The editor of the Journal must certainly be mistaken in attributing the double leaded article which appeared in the T. H. Journal on Saturday morning, to the pen of Mr. Voorhees. Why, that article has complimentary allusions to Mr. V's race in this Congressional District, and the "bold" manner in which be prosecutfed it. Certainly, then, he must not be suspected of writing so very complimentary of himself. As well might the Indianapolis Journal accuse Mr. V. of writing a few other leaders which have appeared in the T. H. Journal, and in which he was complimented in fulsome terms, as to accuse him of writing this one. Oh no, Mr. Indianapolis man, you must take that back. The editor of the Journal alone must have all the glory of making a very big fool of himself.

LIEUTENANT FRED. GRANT will soon be drawing from the United States Treasury thirty dollars per day mileage for his valuable services to the nation in crossing the Atlantic ocean on a pleasure trip.— Oin. Com.

Is not this outrageous? "Can such things be, and not overcome us like a summer cloud We don't think they can. After having made all his relations, and the relations of his wife, and all of his wife's relations rich by giving them fat offices after having received all the presents ever offered to him, the President of the United States now sends his son on a European pleasure trip, at the public expense, and inirty dollars per day mileage. How small of soul must be the man who would do so little a in

THE Washington organ of the Democracy, after consultation with several prominent Democratic leaders, has decided to oppose any formal nomination by the Democracy" for President and Vice President, provided tiie anti-Grant Republicans will put a ticket in the field, and indicates a willingness to support even Charles Sumner.—N. Y. Sun.

It is only fair to say, that the editor of the "Washington organ of the Democracy" had not, when he thus decided, had the excruciating pleasure of reading the double leaded, ad cap tandum article which appeared in the Terre Haute Journal Saturday morning. Had he waited a few days longer, he would not have dared "oppose any formal nomination by the Democracy." Of course he would not.

GEN. CHARLES CRUFT starts this morning for Detroit to attend the annual meeting of the Army of the Cumberland. We believe he will be the only delegate from this city.—Express.

Of course he will. A rumor prevailed that the General intended to make anotlierspeech, and the "boys of the Army of the Cumberland" having had a dose at Chicago sufficiently nauseating to last them the remainder of their natural lives, determined to escape a further humiliation at Detroit. Of course, "Gen. Charles Cruft will be the only delegate from this city."

THE great issue which predominates in our politics is well stated in that able and honest journal, the Springfield Republican: "Tammanyism at Washington must be cot rid of as well as Tammanyism in New York."

That is the point. The. reform movement must not stop now that "Old Tammany" is cleaned out. The fountain head of corruption the Capital of the nation, must undergo a purification. It is a big, dirty, filthy, unpleasant job, but it must be done, or our institutions will not last another decade.

Low Dutch Versus Latin and Greek. A good story is told of the celebrated George Kremer, who figured conspicuously during the "bargain and sale" excitement forty-five years ago, about the time Henry Clay was appointed Secre tary of State by President John Quincy Adams. Mr. Kremer represented the Old Union aud Northumberland Congressional district in Pensylvania, and was a fine type of the primative manners and rugged Democracy of that period. He was firmly convinced that Mr. Clay threw his influence against Gen. Jackson, by which the electoral vote of Kentucky was given to Mr. Adams, for a consideration and when the first place iu the Cabinet was tendered to and accepted by Kentucky's statesman, honest George "cried aloud and spared not." The sensation he ereated ^disturbed the politics of the whole country, and led to many differ ences bet weeu public men. John Randolph of Roanoke dlieted upon the accusation against Clay to such an extent that the new Secretary of State was cdm'peiled to challenge him to mortal combat. But I do not propose a chapter on the "bargain and sale." That episode is hapily iguored by the retiring generation, anil is no longer recalled as a reproach on the memory of Henry Clay. I write simply to revive au incident. between Raudolpli and Kremer, characteristic of both. After one of the peculiar speeches of the eccentric Virginian, which' he interlarded with copious quotations in Latin and Greek, Kremer to&£, anJ^in a strain of well-acted indignation, poured forth a torrent of Pennsylvania German on the head of the amazed and startled Randolph. His violent gesticulations, his loud5 and boisterous tones, his defiant manner, were not more annoying to the imperious Southerner than the fcet that he eould not understand a word that was spoken. And when honest George took his seat, covered with perspiration, Randolph rose and beggea the honorable gentleman from Pennsylvania to enlighten the House and the country by translating what he had just uttered. Kremer retorted as follows "I have only to say in reply to my friend from Virginia, that when he translates the dead languages, which he is constantly usiug for thO benefit of us country jnembeis, into something like English, 1 will be equally liberal in translating my living Pennsylvania Dutch into something that the House can understand." Tho laugh was completely against Randolph.—J. W. fbrney. mvi-A -v—

drug, chloral. It states that it is sold by tons a week, and quotes a letter from Baron Liebig, affirming that one German chemist manufactures ana sells half a ton every week. Of course, no such quantity is used in medicine, and the Lancet seems half afraid that it gets into beer but there is a simple explanation, as it will find on inquiry. Taking chloral is a new and popular vice, par-, ticularly among the women, and is doing at least as much harm as alcohol. The drug is kept in thousands ofdressing cases, and those who begin its use often grow so addicted to it that they often pass their lives in a sort of contented stupefaction. Chloral drunkenness will soon be an admitted variety of the species.

It is said that if a puff of air were to be blown into a vein of an animal, death would instantaneously follow, because circulation would be stopped. The blood makes the entire circuit of the human body every seven minutes, and whenever this circulation is impeded or any of its channels are clogged by impurities which ought to be carried off, disease follows—fever oi a disorder of liver or kidneys, or scrofula,, or dyspepsia. To get at and remove the source of the difficulty, use the old and infallible blood purifier, DR. WALKER'S VINEGAR BITTERS. nov6dw4w

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 CELEBRATION SALE

that will eclipse anything of the kind 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 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," aud through the splendid support given us by the people, we have flot 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 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 the future, we shall upon

SATURDAY, OCT.^8,

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
