Professional Jurors.

The Jaw firm of JJaird & Crufl, thiuknerhaps, that discretion is the better purl of valor, has ceased writing cards overt heir copartnership name, and Gen. f», tiie owner and proprietor of the Daily and Weekly Express, adopting his usual tactics, resorts to its columns, and in leaded matter, as though it was written by the editor of that paper, further defends himself. Gen. Cruft must not undertake to thus defend the law firm of Buird & Cruft. It has attacked us, and •it is being attacked by us. If, however, he wishes to prostitute the columns of his paper, and make its editorial columns the vehicle through which this firm is to be protected,

may have something to say

in future articles in relation to such conduct, The General this morninginhis editorial article on "Courts and Juries," gives the statutory method of selecting the entire panel, and says it is impossible to pack a jury, even if the Sheriff should be willing to do it.

We have not the least idea that a jury was ever packed iu this county by the Sheriff or at the time he drew the panel. No man ever supposed "Bill." Stewart capable ol doing any such thing. Not a single citizen iti this county ever intimated that Col. Thompson, H. D. Scott, Allen & Mack, or other lawyers we could name, were iu the least degree implicated in this jury packing. Their reputations are too well established and too long known in this city, for even a suspicion of such unprofessional conduct to be entertained by any one.

The packing of the jury is not done at the time the names are put in the box, or when the Sheriff fills the panel from the bystanders. It is done by having particular men constantly hanging around the Court House, and by a peculiar hocus-pocus, slip them as often as possible into the jury box. These men are the friends of certain attornies, and rumor says always decide in their favor. Of course the Judges know nothing of this, but they do know who are these known as professional jurors, and it would be exercising a sound discretion to dismiss all such from the jury box, and if possible from the Court Hou»e.

But the General says editorially that he has "conversed with the present Judges on this subject, and they all assure him that they never had any reason to suspect that any attempt was ever made, in either of their courts, by any one, to pack a jury, and they believe no jury was every packed in their courts."

Suppose the General as the present editor, owner and proprietor of the Express, instead of conversing with the "Judges" in relation to this matter, should have a few moments conversation with one Charley Cruft, the lawyer, and should ask him if hr, ever knew anything about packing juries? We should be delighted to be in the next room and hear what the lawyer would say. Wonder if he would tell all he knew, and if so, wonder if the editor would then say» as the editor of the Express this morning said: "In behalf of our courts, we do not believe a single instance can be shown in which a jury has been packed since the war?"

We only put those wondering questions, and would recommend the Express editor in the future to go for his information in relation to packing juries, to the parties who universal rumor says have been guilty of it, and not to the Judges of our Courts. And if he can not learn any thing definite from this quarter, take

Bill Stewart" aside, and ast him what he has seen, and what he believes, and, honest officer as he is, he may put a "bug in your ear."

THE Illinois Legislature is moving in favor of the one-term principle. On Friday last the House passed the following resolutions by an overwhelming majority, the vote being made up of both Democrats and Republicans:

Uesolved, liy the House of Representatives, the Senate concurring, that our Senators in Congress be requested, and our Representatives instructed, to favor by their influence and votes the immediate submission to the States, for their ratilieation, the proposed ameudment to the Constitution of the United States now pending in Congress, which provides that no person who has once held the office of President of the Uuited States shall be thereatter eligible to that office.

Resolved, That the Governor furnish, as soon as practicable, to each of our Senators and Representatives in Congress, a copy of this resolution., Hi

This from Grant's own State, and from Trumbull's own State, is very significant. The ball has begun to roll, and ii will roll on. Before November arrives the people will come to the conclusion that though the amendment may not get into the Constitution till next year, they had better put it into practical operation in the pending Presidential contest. •, .v -i

The Democratic Proceedings at Indianapolis. The proceedings of the Democratic caucus and the Democratic Central Committee at Indianapolis Monday niirlit and Tuesday forenoon may be summed UD as follows: 1st—The caucus resolved thaf the "passive" and new departure" policy was not acceptable to the Indiana Democracy. —Journal.

Is that so? Hope then the Indiana Democracy," will, in the future, be bappy- ...

IN consequence of the enormous rates of taxation in Virginia, a legacy of car-pet-bag rule, the Legislature has taken a step toward partial repudiation. The funding system established in 1867 having gone into effect upon the greater part of the State debt, the Legislature passed a joint resolution suspending its operation as to the rest. But Gov. Walker has interposed his veto upon the measure, which he characterizes as unwise, unjust, and fraught with the gravest consequenvies to the public weal and he declares that no palliation or excuse can be offered for eo unjust a discrimination, against one portion of the creditors of the State.

The

equipped

in point, of Presses and Types in this section, iind orders for any kind of Type Printing solicited, to which prompt attention will be given.

Governor's veto message is

au able and emphatic protest against any action calculated to tarnish the honor of Virginia.

MEXICO is in a state of anarchy. The ambitious schemes of Juarez have excited the indignation of several StateS, and the revolution which commenced at Monterey has spread over Durango, Coahuila, Nuevo-Leon, Sonora, and Oaxaca. All tiiese States are iu armed rebellion, and others are disturbed. The Mexicans have shown that the elective right of the people cannot be trampled on with impunity by an overbearing President, even though he have behind him an army of soldiers and officeholders. Juarez should resign the chair he has usurped, and allow a fair election to be held.

From the LaFayette Courier.

Letter From Terre Hante. Terre Haute is situated in a basin on Fort Harrisou prairie. The numerous railroad surveys converging at that point show a considerable, indeed a remarkable elevation in all directions out of the citv, even on the road to Evansville, which is in a southern direction, and not far from the course of the Wabash river. This dip may have something to do with the fact that oil is found under the site of the city, rather than the surrounding country where coal is found much nearer t.he surface. However, as the structure and formation of the earth a thousand feet beneath the surface can not be traced, it is useless to speculate on the subject.

On first landing at the depot in Terre Haute, the traveler's olfactories are greeted with the offensive odors from the wells. Of these there are two in operation. One is called the artesian well, on the lot of the Terre Haute House, which runs quite a stream, and outstinks anything of the kind in the country. The waters of the LaFayette artesian are not a patching to these for stench. Besides other ingredients in the water there is oil enough to make it offensive to man and beast. The stream is allowed to course its way sluggishly along the old canal bed, blackening the sand and impregnating the atmosphere through the whole width of the city with its stench. The citizens, probably, having become accustomed to breathe the foul air, do not notice it, but a stranger regards it as a great nuisance. Perhaps the hole would have been stopped up by municipal authority long ago, were it not that it is the work ofChauncey Rose, the millionaire bachelor, of whom the corporate authorities are in dread. He is a crotchety old gentleman, and if the city offends him before he goes hence they may miss sundry parks and institutions now floating in their visions. The second well alluded to is in the bed of the old canal, and is a genuine oil well, yielding immensely, aud said to be very profitable to the stockholders.

Terre Haute is rapidly improving aud increasing in population. The people feel big, and talk of LaFayette as a village up the Wabash. In fact, however, there is a great deal of commendable enterprise here. With less wealth than there is in LaFayette, they are doing more. They operate more by combinations. This has given them more railroads than LaFayette has, and they have paid well for them and yet are willing to pay for more, because they see the advantage in them. They have combined and built an Opera House, which for magnificence would do honor to any city. And it pays the stockholders, especially the tier of fiue store rooms under it. With a blast furnace, a rolling mill and nail factory, and glass work, &c., the place is assuming quite a busy air.

The public square, formerly disfigured by a dilapidated old Court House (just like the one in LaFayette), is now cleared of all buildings, planted over with trees, and forms a beautiful park. Anew Court House has been built on the corner of Third and Ohio streets, in a line with other business blocks. Ought not the Commissioners of Tippecanoe county do something of the kind? Let them buy a suitable corner, like the one the Fifth street Methodist Church occupies*,' build a decent Court House on it, and convert the old square into a park. I charge nothing for the advice.

The public markets are kept up in Terre Haute all the year round, including one every Saturday evening. The want of this has driven many mechanics audlhonest laboring men from LaTFayette. In other cities they can buy from farmers, hucksters and gardners without haviug to pay a tariff to grocers for stale vegetables. COSMOPOLITAN.

From the New York Bun.

The Hon. Daniel D. Pratt has his Pockets Picked. The Hon. Daniel D. Pratt,Senator from Indiana, weighing over 400 pounds, and one of the members of Grant's White Washing Committee, entered a Twentythird street stage at 5 o'clock last evening to proceed up town, and after taking out his wallet to pay his fare, put the same back in his pocket. Shortly after leaving the stage, the Senator found that his wallet was gone but who had robbed him he could not tell. Of course he could not suspect the handsome young lady who sat beside him. The wallet contained a draft for$500, Uuited States notes to the value of $51 and some other valuable private papers, supposed to be instructions for the conduct of the investigations by the Retrenchment Committee. Upon ascertaining his loss, the Senator sent a friend to the police headquarters to give the detectives the particulars. The gentleman, however could give no idea or description of the thief. It is a remarkable fact that Senator Morton, the other Senator from Indiana, was robbed of his wallet containing $1,000 on the cars at Jersey City about a month ago.

From the ^aducali Kentucklan.

Lead Excitement In Illinois and Kentucky. The excitement growing out of the recent discoveries of 4ead at Rosa Clare, Illinois, is almost equal to the old California lead fever lands, and stocks are changing hands at fabulous prices. Kentucky, it seems has an equally rich deposit of lead opposite the Illinois mines. We hear that some Eastern capitalists recently commenced prospecting on the lands of a Mr. Barnett, near Carrsville, and after a few days' work were successful in finding lead, which bids fair to equal the Rosa Clare deposit, but have had a legal notice to stop further operations, as a gentleman by the name of Trabue holds a mineral lease on the lands executed over twenty years ago. The existence of this lease was news to Mr. Barnett, but, on finding that it did exist, he proposed to release the lease by purchase. Our information is that Mr. Trabue asked $100,000 for his privileges. One can hardly imagine what must have been the feelings of disfrPPQifttjaent to Mr. Barnett, having, as

he thought, become the possessor of sufficient wealth for all worldly purposes, but vanished at sight of this old and, to him, unknown document.

A Naughty Editor.

Mr. Henry Gheiselin, editor of the Norwich Journal, eloped the other day with a young lady of that city, and sailed for Europe leaving a wife and six children behind, whereupon the Raleigh North Carolinian indulges in the following discouraging comments We know Henry Gheiselin well. .A more accomplished gentl.eman never lived in Norfolk. Before he began editing the Journal he was a"'cotton facfor in that city. Never would we have believed it of him. Mr. Gheselin was one ot the chief moving spirits that brought Gilbert Walker to the gubernatorial chair of Virginia. But he turned editor That's what ruined him!"

To those wlio are Bowed Down by Nervous Debility, and despair of ever recovering the vigor and mien of manhood we earnestly recommend Dr. Walker's California Vinegar Bitters. Before they have finished the first bottle, they will t'eel the restorative principle at work in every portion of their broken-down systems and hope will spring up in their hearts. No case of Dyspepsia, Biliousness, Intermittent Fever, Rheumatism, Gout or Kidney disease-, can resist this unequaled vegetable tonic which is unpolluted by any distilled or fermented liquor. 8dw4w

1872. THE WORLD. 1812.

the year 1872General Grant's successor is to be chosen the Forty-third Congress to be elected.

The people's votes, white and black, North and South, will thus decide the future destiny of the Republic, select its rulers, prescribe their course.

How to influence the people's votes? By the newspaper—for it includes every other agency. It makes known events and facts —among all influences the chief. It assembles the vaster outside audiences which cannot gather to the State House, the pulpit, or the stump. It is the constant interpreter of men's ali'airs, and of errors or truth is the daily seed' sower.

Next November is our political harvest-time. As we sow we shall reap. THE WORLD'S seed-sowing will be fruitful to the extent that its circulation is widely pushed by those who approve its aim.

THE WOULD will aim to represent and combine the labors ana votes of I.—All those who find best insurance of the people's prosperity, peace and progress in a government administeredTn the principles and in the pure practice of Jeflerson and Jackson, and who descry the fount and origin of the present corruptions, extravagance mis-government, subversion of public liberties, and insecurity of private rights in our rulers'lawless usurpation of interdicted and undelegated powers— usurpation that to-day marches deliberately on to the subjugation of popular rule and the possession of dictatorial power—for by acts of Congress General Grant may even now des.roy the ireedomof State elections, invade the States at his pleasure, and declare martial law of his own free will.

II.—All those who would maintain the honor of the republic, and would preserve public credit by punctual payment of the public debts.

III.—All tlioso who would cut down to fewer and fit objects all appropriations of the people's money (to-day more than douDle, nearly treble, the appropriations of a Democratic Congress eleven years ago, not counting annuities to In1 dians, pensigns to soldiers, and interest on debt) and who would oblige all spending of the people's money got by taxes, to be with honesty and thrift likewise all those who would spare a little of the people's landed estate for the landless millions hereafter and stop its squandering dominions in a day upon those \vho already own much.

IV.—All those who would reduce the number of commodities taxed by our tariff from thousands to a few dozens, and so empty our custom-houses of half their officials, rid the statute books of half their odious snares for honesty or bribes to fraud and unfetter scores of our native industries.

V.—All those who would lower the rates also of our tariff taxes to the point of most easily yielding the largest revenue—who would abandon the protectionist system of reducing the revenue whilst increasing the extortionate profits of a few at the expense of all other industries.

VI.—All those wto would abolish .every unlawful tax, like that on incomes every unjust tax like that which gives banks the people's profits on a national currency every unequal ard indeterminate tax, like that levied most cruelly upon the poor—the tax of our irredeem able paper-money.

A HAPPY NEW YEAR

TO YOU JlJLJLjI

a double portion of joj' iu the year to come.

The Old Year, with its pleasures and cares, its strug-

gles and its triumphs, has joined the agos of the years that are past. It was a year of bright promise to us, and it has not left its pledges unfulfilled. Our highest anticipations have been more than realized, and we have been enabled to plant our flag higher

upon thfi battlements of the enemy than ever before. We trust it has treated with equal kindness all of the many thousands of our customers whom we wished a happy New Year a year ago to-day. If to some it has not been thus gracious, we ask for them

To-day, then, we Bring you Glad Greeting!

Anew year opens upon us fresh duties beckon us forward new opportunities are arising, and greater achievements must be accomplished. We ax-e no longer strangers

to each other. The clear, untarnished record of nearly two years is before you, and in its light you have been kind enough to judge us. We start to-day upon the New Year with fairer prospects for the future than ever before. We have lived down the slanders of our enemies, and have forced some of them to admit the monstrous falsehoods they have uttered against us. We have gained the confidence and support of a larger constituency of customers than has ever been secured by any other retail Dry

Goods establishment in Western Indiana. Our sales now equal if in fact they do not largely exceed the combined sales of any t»vo of our competitors, and yet the year upon which we have just entered must witness still greater achieyements won by us over the ruinous old-fashioned credit credit system of the High-priced Siores.
