FOIL GOVERNOR IX 1S72,

Washington C. De Pauw,

OF FI OY» COUNTY.

TUE&DAY, FEBRUARY 20, 1872.

IT IS now regardetl as very important by the Administration,Unit the approaching elections in New Hampshire and Connecticut be in its favor. The Washington correspondent ot the Cincinnati Commercial, writing in reference to this matter, says:

We all know what a wet blanket would fall on Grant's hopes at Philadelphia, if those two strongholds of Republicanism should again elect Democratic officers and the prospect is too good, I "fffior~sorry to say, that such will be the case. With the Custom-House fraud?,the general order swindles, the division in the party in the several States, the alienation of nearly half of the Republican Senators in Congress, the unpopularity of Grant in the South, our complications with England, the New Orleans troubles, the President's appointments, Forney's resignation, the civil serivce blunder, the defeat of the Administration in California, Iowa, Missouri, Nebraska, and other States, the great dissatisfaction felt for other causes in various States, the assembling of the Cincinnati Convention, and the threatening attitude of the antiGrant Republicans—with all of these facts staring the Philadelphia Convention in the face it will be an impossible thing to renominate Grant, if the States of New Hampshire and Connecticut go for the Democracy. General Grant, sees this, and so every effort is being put forward to carry those States.

One difficulty was that the speakers did not care to go into those Slates with the black record of the general order business staring them in the face. They represented to Grant that the Tribune the only paper containing the full report of the testimony of the Senate Commit fee, was increasing its circulation there by hundred? they represented that the Democrats were hard at work, and that unless something was done, the election would go by default. Here, then, was the dilemma. The horrid frauds and irregu larities existed, and were being used with great effect against the party. What was to be done.

Senator Henry Wilson, was himself prepared to leave hiJ seat and go to New Hampshire, but he very frankly told the President that he could not answer the charges that would be made by the Democrats on the stump, and he did not care to be made the butt of the Admin istration. A few such appeals as this had more effect on the Presi dent than the former investigating committee, the charges of the ne\ papers, the petition of prominent gentlemen, the repeated representations of A. T. Stewart, and all other testimony which wa3 made known a year ago. Indeed, the effect was almost instantanes. Semitor Wilson has carried his point. The General Order business is to be thrown overboard, the bribers and bribe-takers are to be arrested, and the Administration imagines that it is safe It has covered its head, like the ostrich by sticking it in the sand, but the larger part is thus made more prominent."

There is nothing plainer in the signs of the times, than that General Grant is getting weaker daily. Other men being spoken of for the Philadelphia nomination, and their claims urged by their friends. Bets are being made, that Grant will not be nominated, and some of his warmest supporters assert that they are losing faith in his success. Every man of ordinary information knows that there are good Republicans all over th« couutry who will not vote for him, and that there are other men, who if put in nomination, can unite the party to man. This of itself ought to be enough to defeat Grant.

THE correspondent of the Cincinnati Times and Chronicle, who accompanied the excursionists to this city and the coal fields of Clay county, speaks of us in this wise: "We again took train on the Yandalia route for Terre Haute, at which rapidly improving Wabash city we arrived, at 5 F. JVI.-, and were courteously received and entertained with a drive through the principal streets. Truth compels the record that this famous drive would have been much more enjoyable bad the weather been milder. Confinement in a close carriage with the thermometer 6° or 8° below, zero and every moisture of the breath congealing on the coach windows, is not to be esteemed as a pleasant situation.

Terre Haute, situated within twenty miles of the lamous block coal fields, is advancing in population and manufactures at a ratio that is creating, to use a mild term, considerable solicitude in Indianapolis. Of course the good people of the Hoosier Capital laugh to scorn the idea of any Indiana city rivaling her ingrowth and in capacity but, nevertheless, they at Indianapolis are mighty busy about these days hunting for closer connection with tjie coal fields, and the bravado that is oftentimes only a cover for solicitude crops out pretty extensively iQ almost every day's issue of the papers published around the rim of the circle. Meanwhile 3*erre Haute keeps right on the even tenor of her way, and is decidedly growing with the healthy growth that comes of increasing facilities in the mechanic arts/' jjcourse we are going rigbt straight

Rrd, and no city in the whole North?St has more flattering prospects in the iture. There are evidences of substantial prosperity all around us, and much to give our citizens courage to press forward. We are now on the top of the and it

is our fault if

do not con-

nue to remain there. Much is expected

ahMatw'" m——•

of the press of the city, for it is through it that we are known to the rest of the world. We must not be laggard. The eyes of capitalist everywhere are being turned to this locality, as one favoring permanent investments. All we have to do is to be enterprising, go-ahead and determined.

How TRUE are these words, taken from a recent article in the New York Tribune: "How impossible is it for a journalist to reconcile independence in his profession with office-holding.

there is a man in the United States better fitted than any other, by nature, by temperament, by long experience and standing in the Republican party, to harmonize effectually the positions of an independent journalist and an officeholder under the Administration, that person is John W. Forney. But a year's experience convinced him that the work was too heavy even for him. A journalist who holds an office, writes in a straight-jacket. If he be of a generous and grateful disposition, he cannot freely discuss the measures of the men whose favors he is enjoying. If he be sordid and selfish, a mean regard for his own interests is enough to deprive him of any courage or clearness of judgment.

THAT the rebellion created a vast deal of private misery, nobody has ever doubted but when we read of suffering at the South, it must be remembered that the North too has suffered. This is a painful story which we find in the Louisville Ledger of a Kentucky lady who has become insane through the loss of her husband and his property, and who, being discharged from the lunatic asylums as incurable, is now the inmate of a jail in this State, having been carried there from the poor-house. It will be long before we shall know the full extent of the mischief wrought by a senseless and indefensible rebellion—by a treason which never from the beginning to the end had a chance of permanent success. That the crime has been condignly punished, and, as a general thing, bitterly repented of, is a fact which ought forever to save us from a repetition of the experiment.

"C. N.," THE "excursionist correspondent" of the Cincinnati Enquirer, speaks thusly of our city

Terre Haute is a pretty nice place, and when I grow tired of my present palace in Clifton I mean to come here and buy another. They have an Opera House almost equal to Pike's, an oil well of superior fragrance, a Female Seminary, a Normal School, and about ten miles of skating park open to practice free. The girls are stylish, and can all drive a tandem team or a four-in-hand. The young men part their hair in the middle, and don't affect Young Men's Christian Association. The old men play cribbage, and don't interfere with their neighbors' religious ideas particularly. Dancing-schools have ueen known to thrive here during a whole winter. Parlor theatricals and mad degs are unknown, and there have been comparatively few cases of small-pox of late. On the whole I think it would be a good place to grow old in.

WHAT has become of the Cardiff Giant? We ask because they have just dug up a stony brother of his in Nebraska, a petrified gentleman measuring seven feet across the shoulders, so that he must have been a marvelous proper man in his days of flesh and blood. His remains now are eighteen feet from his head to his heels and he was found in a stonequarry. We confess that we are inclined to believe in this giant just a little for those who "discovered" him must be idiots if they suppose that the public is quite ready so soon to swallow another hard monster. One such marvel was a dose a second would be a little tedious.

THE salient point in the French arms scandal is that the Government armories were employed, by authority of General Grant's Administration, to manufacture cartridges for the use of the French in the aggressive war they opened in 1870 against the Germans. There are other startling features about it, which the de bate has made clearer, but this is the one point which is admitted by all sides.

Our Duty as Republicans. DANVILLE, III., Feb. 17, 1872. Editor of Terre Haute Gazette:

How is this to be avoided We say by nominating for President a strong man, a sound man, and a statesman that will lead our mighty loyal patriotic hosts to victory and that, let ns say, is Chas. Sumner—our greatest, statesman our finest international lawyer an educated diplomatist and a man free from corruption and one who has been a lifelong RepubUoan, and one when only

What is our duty as Bepublicans? it to keep up contention and strife Is it our duty to urge the claims of those who seek power and place for the loaves and fishes, and even to the endangering of a uation's liberties and future prosperity and greatness Or, is it not more prop erly and rightfully our duty to do what is best for a nation's good Surely none would deny but what the latter proposition is the wisest and best but how is that to be brought about? Men clamorous for power. Practical politicians are crying "help us." Safer men, and wiser statesmen sit still and ask themselves what is best to do? It is not our province to say that the Administration has, or has not, been a wise and judicious one. Our nation has prospered peace has reigned throughout our land but from every quarter the cry is heard for a "change," not of principles, or of party, but of rulers and of policy. Amnesty is asked for and should be given, and while we are unwilling a rebel should rule, we are unwilling the fluest talent and the most brilliant minds should be disqualified from helping make laws most needful to them, and of which they can best judge, and by which they must be governed. It seems to us such men are better qualified to make the needed laws, and govern and defend this fair sunny clime, than a Majority of the barnacles and pedestrian mummies who now control it. A party disaffection and a disunion of interest, always endangers the sought for desires. A disorganized business is sure of disaster, and a disorganized party is sure of defeat so a nation with contentious factions is promised trouble. Such is our condition now, and while the Democratic party dare not trust themselves, and while they depart, and nou-depart. and while their leaders (if they have any) advise no nomination for President, if they would take advantage of our mistake, and by joining with disaffectionists elect some conservative without platform or principle, our own skirts should carry the stain of a nation's disgrace. Such a result is not at all impossible. With the additional strength they have gained in the South, and one or two States in the North, say New York, and our great progress of twelve years would have to ay dormant—almost hid by darkness for at least four years.

one other stood by his side. With forgiveness for the erring, and protection for the weak, and such a man at the head of the Republican ticket for President, we will, when November comes, meet the enemy with willing hearts, and when the day is past, we can say veni vidi vici,

J. F. S.

THE following anecdote is told of the late Thad. Stevens: "A Lutheran minister, of Lancaster, left the pulpit and became a Democratic politician. He met Mr. Stevens soon after, and inquiring about his health, received as an answer: 'I am very well I take care of my system, and above all things keep my conscience pure. I suppose you have heard that I have abandoned politics and am studying for the ministry.' In his last sickness the doctor said to him one day: 'Mr. Stephens, I think your appearance is better to-day.' 'It is not my appearance that troubles me,' was the reply, 'but my dis-appearance.'

Re-animating the Hair.—When the hair ceases to draw from the scalp the natural lubricant which is its sustenance, its vitality is, as jt were, suspended, and if not promptly attended to, baldness will be the certain result. The one sure method of avoiding such an unpleasant catastrophe is to use LYON'S ATHAIRON, which, when well rubbed into the scalp, will speedily re-animate the hair and prevent it from falling out. Besides that, this inimitable resuscitant and strengthener of the hair nourishes and stimulates its young and tender fibers, removes all obstacles to their growth in the shape of daudruff and dirt, and ultimately produces a new crop of hair, stronger, glossier, and twice as abundant as the old. As a hair dressing it is notably the most agreeable, refreshing and serviceable article ever placed upon a dressingtable.

A Beauti.nl Woman.—The perceptive faculty of women is usually keener than the same phrenological organ in men. Women know that beauty rather than genius is worshipped by the sterner sex. A man may talk of the latter to his ladylove, but the keenness of the woman knows that he is thinking of the former. Women are fond of admiration hence one of their longings is to be beautiful. The grand secret of female beauty is health the power to eat, digest and assimilate a praper quantity of wholesome food. Take VINEGAR BITTERS. It will cleanse the stomach, tone the vital organs, give a peafect digestion, purify the blood, clear up the complexion and produce a state of mental and physical electricity, which gives symmetry of torm, bright eyes, white skin, glossy hair and a genuine type of female lovliness, which no cosmetic can produce.

Another Startling Reduction in Prices!

It seems to be as well known to tho public as to ourselves that our store, though greatly enlarged last fall, and now running back a depth of one hundred feet, IS STILL INADEQUATE TO ACCOMMODATE OUR MAMMOTH TRADE.

THE NEW YORK TRIBUNE

FOR 187S.

gr.

The consolidation of Italy, so long fragmentary and Impotent, into one powerful State, with Rome as its capital the humiliation ol France through a series of crashing defeats ending with the siege and capitulation of her proud and gay metropolis the expulsion of the Bourbons from the Spanish throne, ana the substitution tor them of a scion of the most liberal among royal houses the virtual absorption of the kingdoms of Saxony, Wurttemberg, Bavaria, with Baden, Hesse, the Hanse Towns, &c., under the headsnip of Prussia, into the triumphant and powerful empire of Germany and the arming of Russia to reassert her preponderance in the councils of Europe, or to prosecute her often postponed but never relinquished designs on the great city founded by Constantine and the vast but decaying and anarchical dominion of the Sultan,all combine to invest with profound interest the everchanging phases of our tidings from the Old World. THB TRIBUNE, tnrough trusted conespondents stationed at all points in Europe where great movements are in progress or imminent, aims to present a complete and instructive panorama of events on that continent, and to mirror the prolonged struggle between middle-aged Feudalism and Ecelesiasticism on the one hand and Nineteenth Century skepticism and secularism on the other.

Recognizing a Divine Providence In all that proceeds and is, it looks hopefully on the great conflict as destined (like our own recent convulsion) to evolve from strife, disaster, and seeming chaos, a fairer future for the toiling masses of mankind.

In our own country, a war upon corruption and rascality in office has been inaugurated in our city, whereby the government of our State has been revolutionized through an initial triumph of reform which surpasses the most sanguine anticipations. It is morally certain that the movement thus inaugurated cannot, in its progress, be circumscribf to any party, bat that its purifying influence is destined to be felt in every part of the Union,re buklng venality, exposing robbery, wresting power from politicians by trade, and confiding it in those worthiest and fltte to wield it. To this beneficent and vitally needed Reform, The Tribune will devote its best energies, regardless of personal interests or party predilections, esteeming the choice of honest and faithful men to office as ot all New Departures the most es sential and auspicious.

The virtual surrender by the Democratic par ty of its hostility to Equal Rights regardless color has divested our current politics of ha. their bygone intensity. However parties ma henceforth rise or fall, it is clear that the fun« damental principles wnich have hitherto honorably distinguished the Republicans are henceforth to be regarded as practically accepted by the whole country. The right ol every man to his own limbs and sinews—the equality of all citizens before the law—the inability of a State to enslave any portion of its people—the drty of the Union to guarantee to every citizen the full enjoyment of his liberty until he forfeits it by crime—such are the broad and firm foundations of our National edifice and palsied be the hand that seeks to displace them! Though not yet twenty years old, the Republican party haa completed the noble fabric of Emancipation, and may fairly invoke thereon the sternest judgment of Man and the benignant smile of God.

Hencelorth, the mi'-sion of our Republic is one of Peaceful Progress. To protect the week and the humble from violence and oppression—to extend the boundaries and diffuse the blessings ot Civilization—to stimulate Ingenuity to the production of new inventions for economizing Labor and thus enlarging Production—to draw nearer to each other the producers of Food and Fabrics, of Grains and Metals, and thus enhance the gains of Industry by reducing the cost ot transportation and exchanges between larmers and artisans—such is the inspiring task to which this Nation now addresses itself, and by which it would fain contribute to the progress, enlightenment and happinessof our race To this great and good work, The Tribune cor tributes its zealous, persistent efforts.

Agriculture will continue to be more espe-1 ally elucidated in its Weekly and Semi-Wet ly editions, to which some of the ablest ai most successful tillers of the soil will contu bute. No farmer who sells $300 worth of produce per annum can aflord to do without our Market Reports, er others equally lucid and mprehensive. If he should read nothing else but what relates to his own calling and its rewards, we believe that no farmer who can read at all can afford to do without such a journal as The Tribune. And we aspire to make itequally valuable to those engager inother dspartments of Productive Labor. We spend more and more money on our columns each year, as our countrymen's generous patronage enables us to do and we are resolved that our issues of former years shall be exceeded in varied excellence and interest by-ihose of 1872. Friends in every State! help us to make our journal bet ter and better, by sending in your subscription? and increasing your Clubs for the year just before us!
