CHARACTERISTIC.—Foster

MR. POWERS,

have been requested to state, which •we do with pleasure, that it was not Dr. T. B. Harvey who made a lool of himself at the Paine Anniversary by insulting the press. It was a Dr. Hervey.—Ind. Journal.

We understand this living monument of brass asserted, in an infldel meetiug held to honor the memory of the notorious Tom Paine, that any of the city papers of the Capital could be bought. Straightway he offered a resolution requesting tbe Indianapolis Journal and Sentinel to publish certain portions of the proceedings—a rambling discourse stolen lrom the Encyclopedia in part. Such a demonstration of brass is highly characterstic of this class of believers.

was only one gentleman who left

this city yesterday with a heroic hope of boarding the Ducal train at Terre Haute. He made a valiant attempt to do it in the Prairie City. This fawner of royalty has no appetite for sitting down to-day.—

A MAGNIFICENT representation of a freight locomotive, drawn and designed by Joseph W. Nesbett, while Master Mechanic of the Kentucky Central Railroa J, ornaments the splendid and elegant show window of the Opera House Book Store. This representation of this hand some and gigantic engine is the brain and hand work of the present skillful and experienced Assistant Superintendent of the Terre Haute & Chicago Railroad, and is worthy of inspection by railroad men, mechanics and all who have an eye for the artistic, the mechauical or beautiful. The work was done while Mr. Nesbitt was yet Master

Mechanic of the Kentucky Central Ba::road, as it indicates on its face. As you enter or pass the Opera House Book Store, take a look at the picture, which is elegantly mounted, and surmounted by a life-like picture of the artist, who is re sponsible for its production.

Vallejo Recorder has the follow

ing: "About one o'clock yesterday morning as we were wending our way homeward we were suddenly startled by tbe report of a gun. We rushed into the house from which the sound proceeded and found matters thus A certain husband living in that neighborhood has got a habit of walking in his sleep, and his wife got so tired of having him irisk around the house during the silent watches of the yight that at last she determined to tie him fast after he got to sleep. She affixed a string to his ankle and tied the other end fast to what happened to be the most handy, which was her husband's double-barreled gun, behind the door in the corner of the room. About 1 o'clock the somnambulist arose for the purpose of taking a ramble around the rooms. When he had taken about six steps the artillery came out of its seclusion iu the corner with a jerk, and both barrels went oft", the loads crashing through the panels of the door. It soon brought both parties to consciousness. Yesterday he was busy putting a new panel in the door, which is far better than digging a load of buckshot out of the baby."

The Canal Inspection.

The proposition to appoint a Commission of Civil Engineers to inspect the Canals and other Public Works of the State, and report to the Legislature their actual condition and what may be needed for their efficiency, passed both Houses and is now in force. Before its passage a provision was inserted to the effect that the members of the Commission must be' free from, all" connection with either the Canal or Railroad interests. This provision is a very proper and satisfactory one. We still do not see why the information sought through this commission could not have been obtained through the officers of the State, acting under the authority of the Constitution, elected by the people, and sworn to do the very duties with which this commission is to be charged. But as the commission is ordered, we hope its labors may be successful in stimulating the State to a more prudent and diligent course in regard to is still most valuable property.—Toledo Blade.

Graham Pudding.

How do'you make Graham-pudding and what do you eat on it So asks one of our readers. Sift from one hand and stir, using a spoon, with the other, unbolted wheat flour into boiling water, until it is of the consistency of a thin hasty pudding, or so it will readily pour from a spoon. Leave it to boil ten or fifteen minutes where it cannot burn, and ladle it out into a pudding dish. The flour should be prepared from well cleaned, good wheat and be well ground, having the bran or hull of the grain as well cut up as the berry. Some prefer it ground fine as for bread, and some prefer it rather coarse,, In? which case it needs a few minutes' longer cooking. It is eaten with some kind of stewed or baked fruit, or with cream, or milk, or sugar, or syrup, or honey, or any simple dressing used for other puddings, and can be recommended as an excellent dish for its nourishing properties,

its

easy digestion and delicious taste.

No, nor nobody else ever saw them." What became of the letters that were once iu, youc possession ?". "They #ete burned. Tiaven't. the least doubt of it." "What makes you think so?" "Because I delivered them to Peter B. Sweeney, and I know him too well to believe he would let them run the least chance of publication. Ye?, I am certain they have been destroyed."

NEW YORK,

Albany, N.

Feb. 1.—The following is

.a Tribune's special from Washington, Jan. 31: The disposition of the House Naval Committee appears to be favorable to an immediate increase of the navy by the building of new ships, and it is probable they will soon report some measures for that purpose. The recent exposure of the weakness of our navy and the unsettled character of our relations with Spain has convinced many of the most prominent members of the House that something ought to be done immediately to increase the strength of our maritime forces.

It is asserted that General Sickles has announced to the President his intentions to resign his mission at an early day. It is asserted in certain quarters that his strong American attitude on the Cuba, question has not been fully sustained by the Department of State.

In the House the civil service committee is still endeavoring to mature the bill to fix salaries of committee clerks. They have spent all the time since their appointment upon this trifling matter, and not yet reached an important part. Unless they make better progress than they have hitherto, the close of the session will arrive before they will be able to report any measure of value.

Her step-father tried to levy blackmail on a man found intimate with her, but Lawler had nothing to do with this, as he was not there. "He, Lawler, married her in order to save her from her own parents. For two years she was a good wife, but after they moved to New York, he found she had gone astray aud left her. In 1868, he was divorced in due form, and had not seen her since. Lawler has commenced suit against the Sun for libel.

CINCINNATI,

Feb. 1.—In the religious

convention this morning resolutions advocating the right and duty of the United States to acknowledge itself iu a written constitution to be a Christian nation and advocating the teaching of the Bible and religion in the public sbhools were brought up for discussion.

Mr. Crosher, of Pennsylvania, said the subject is now occupying the greatest minds of the country. The importance of the question is now being realized. He concluded that the kingdom which God will set up will be one which all Christians require. This kingdom will not be set up miraculously, but through the initrumentality of His people.

Professor Milligan said: "We are all responsible to God, but this is not only a responsibility. The State comes in and demands obedience for the sin of slavery. The whole nation was punished in war. God demands obedience from individuals, and as a part of the nation, each individual is responsible for acts of the nation."

After speeches from a number of dele

gates

of a similar import, the resolutions were unanimously adopted and the convention adjourned to 2 P. M.

[Special telegram to the Indianapolis Sentinel.] SOUTH BEND,

January 31.—The train

bearing the remains of Colonel Eddy, late Secretary of State, arrived at Laporte at 5 o'clock this morning, and was met by a committee repre'senting that city. The remains were escorted from Indianapolis by a delegation of twentyfive, including Governor Baker, Hon. James B. Ryan, Hon. John C. Shoemaker, Hon. John I. Morrison, Hon. John W. Dodd and others.

All along the line many expressions of love and respect for the dead were made, alike by Republicans and Democrats, and the sorrow for his decease is universal and. unfeigued. At Laporte a general meeting of the citizens, irrespective of party, was held, in which resolutions extolling the merits, while living, of the deceased were unanimously adopted. Judge Osborne, M. K. Farrand and James Moon, were appointed to accompany the funeral car to this point. Early this morning, at Laporte, the escort from Indianapolis were met by a similar one lrom this city, acting in behalf of South Bend. Upon arrival here a very large number gathered at the depot, and joined in the procession from here to H. Barth's residence, where the remains lay in state until the afternoon services.

Shortly after dinner the entire bar of the city assembled in the Court House, and passed resolutions expressive of their feeling in regard to the late loss sustained oy the State in the death of Colonel Norman Eddy. Full arrangements were made to attend the funeral iu a body. At 2 o'clock a procession was formed, including the escorts of the G. A. R., Legal Fraternity, etc., and the remains were taken to the First Methodist Church.

A great number attended the service?. Large delegations were present from Mishawaka, Colonel Eddy's old home, and other points. The discourse was delivered by Rev. William Richmond, pastor of St. James' Episcopal Church, and was an earnest tribute to the talents and worth of the lamented deceased.

After the conclusion came the burial in the Cemetery adjoining the city. The march to the grave was an imposing one. In the procession, which was headed by music, several hundred joined, and the streets along the route were lined with spectotors.

The Indianapolis delegation will return to-night Their stay iu South Bend was marked by the tridst courteous treatment from the citizens.

At the bar meeting, this afternoon, it was decided to inaugurate a State testimonial to tbe wife of Colonel Eddy, by a contribution from each attorney.

It was also stated that General Kimball had succeeded to the office of Secretary of State, that Qwen Eddy would continue as deputy, and that the regular salary of the office for the term, would be paid to the relatives of the deceased. Governor Baker has expressly signified hid intention of appointing no oqe to the vacant office unless he will accept it for the honor therein conveyed, and not/or the salary,

[Condensed from Associate! Press Report.] CONGRESSIONAL.

SENATE.

Miscellaneous business transacted of no general interest. Mr. Scott reported from the Finance Committee a bill declaring the meaning of the Internal Revenue act of July 14, 1870. It declares that the meaning of the act was to exempt from the two and one-half per cent, tax, all dividends of the earnings and undivided profits of all bauks, insurance and other corporations mentioned in the act made, or which accrued to the surplus fund during August, September, October, November and December, 1870, in all cases when such corporations had already paid or would thereafter pay upon the earnings, income? and undivided profits of the previous months of that year a tax equal to at least two and half per cent, per annum. The substitute also directs the Commissioner of Internal Revenue to refund the tax paid upon all such earnings for said five months to all corporations that have paid the tax of two and onehalf per cent, upon all dividends in 1870 and 1871. The bill passed.

The amnesty bill was taken up, and Mr. Chandler addressed the Senate at length.

He declared himself against universal amnesty. Amnesty was a boon, and they who proposed to grant it had certainly a right to impose conditions, and he thought it very mild and reasonable condition to require the rebels to cease their infernal outrages upon loyal men before giving them amnesty. He was opposed to forcing amnesty upon them. If they would not condescend to ask it, they ought not to get it. The first condition of forgiveness was repentance. God might forgive an unrepentant rebel, but he (Chandler) never would. The case of General Longstreet had been cited as a precedent for amnestying tbe leading rebels, but Longstreet had furnished the highest pcssible~evidence of repentance, loyalty, and general good character by joining the Republican party. The Ku Klux rebels of the South seemed to forget that they were paroled prisoners of war, liable to be shot at any time^for violation of their parole, and he thought that if two or three hundred of them were taken out that it would do a great deal more good than amnesty. Chandler then turned to the civil service reform. He said it had been going on very effectively for the last eleven years, by reforming traitors out of office, and replacing them with good loyal men, and expressed the opinion that we never had so honest and efficient a Civil service as under the present Administration. Still, there were undoubtedly other reforms required, and they would be made as soon as pointed out. He then drew at length a parallel between the Republican and Democratic parties, greatly to the disadvantage of the latter, and warned the liberal Republicans of the character of the party iuto whose arms they were rushing. There were always Republican soreheads going over to the Democracy, but for every such one there were ten Democrats joining the Republican party, "and if Democrats chose to keep up the exchange on these terms, he had no objection.

Mr. Sumner replied to Mr. Morrill's (of Maine) arguments, made last week against the constitutionality of the supplementary civil rights bill. The power to pass the bill, he said, was given in the grant of power to abolish slavery, this legislation being necessary to make the abolition complete. The Seuator (Mr. Morrill) had found constitutional difficulties in his way because he adhered to the old rule of interpreting the Constitution, in disregard of the new rule which conquered at Appomattox. The rule was that every word, clause and sentence must be interpreted uniformly for human rights, and if his bill should be rejected and the amnesty bill passed, there was danger that the colored vote would be so divided as to defeat the Republican party. In Pennsylvania there were more than enough colored voters to turn the scale in a State election, and in the whole country, they were numerous enough to do the same in a Presidential election. The colored voters were a new power in the land, and must be considered.

Mr. Morrill, of Maine, replied: He denied that the close of the war brought any new rule of interpreting the Constitution, and charged Mr. Sumner with having advocated this bill by using the colored voters as a coercive power instead of by reasons addressed to the judgment of the Senate. At the conclusion of Mr. Morrill's remarks the Senate adjourned.

HOUSE.

The House spent the greater part of the day in discussing the "Syndicate," and adjourned without having come to any conclusions as to the proper action to be pursued in regard to the National funding system of Secretary Boutwell. During the debate some very warm words were indulged in by Mr. Dawes, of Massachusetts, and Mr. Randall, of Pennsylvania. No lives lost.

HAIB VIGOR.

A I I O

For the Renovation of tlie Hair! The Great Desideratum of the Age!

A dressing which is at once agreeable, healthy, and effectual for preserving the hair. Faded or gray hair is soon restored to its original color and the gloss and freshness of youth. Thin hair is thickened, falling hair cheeked, and baldness often, though not always, cured by its use. Nothing can restore the hair where the follicles are destroyed, or the glands ftrophied or decayed. But such as remain can be saved for usefulness by this application. Instead of fouling the hair with a pasty sediment, it will keep it clean and vigorous. Its occasional use will prevent the hair from falling oft and consequently prevent- baldness. Free from those deleterious substances which make some preparations dangerous and injurious to the hair, the Vigor can only benefit but not harm it. If wanted merely for a

HAIR DRESSING, nothing else can be found so desirable. Containing neither oil nor dye, it does not soil white cambric, and yet lasts longer on the hair, giving it a rich glossy lustre and a grateful perfume.
