LaFayette and the Wabash & Erie Canal. In their interest in new railroad enterprises, which will undoubtedly be of the greatest benefit to our city, we must not lose sight of or neglect one institution of vital importance which we already have— the Wabash fe Erie Canal. In the earnest pursuit of new advantages, we must not overlook or neglect those which we already possess. The canal is perhaps one of the most important elements of prosperity to our city. Abandoned by bondholders and the State alike, it has been left to shuffle for itself. The time has now come when the investment of a comparatively small amount would put the canal in perfect order throughout the entire length—at least as far south as Armiesburgor Terre Haute, and convert it into one of the best and best paying properties in the country. And in time, we doubt not, this will be done. But at present neither the bondholders nor the State will have anything to do with it, and it has been maintained through the efforts and means of a "Canal Company" subscribed to by citizens along the line, who have kept it running at an actual loss for some time, but lor two or three years with a satisfactory and growing profit, showing that the canal needs only to be put upon a sure and safe foundation to PAY, and pay well. It is the interest of LaFayette to make the best of the matter ate it stands A few, comparatively, of her citizens have borne the whole burden thus far. All ought now to lend a helping hand. The business men of LaFayette could afford, if it were necessary, to present to the Canal Campany $5,000 per year rather than let the canal go down, and would make money by it. It saves more than that much each year to the business community of our city by the reduction which it effects in the price of coal and freight charges. Our people would very sensibly appreciate this fact were the canal to be abandoned for a while. The benefits are general in their nature, affecting directly or indirectly almost every class of the cemmuity. We hope to see some way devised by which the Canal Company may be helped along with their work, and eased of a portion of their onerous burden, by the appropriation of aid in small and reasonable amounts by the several counties and cities along the line of this important artery of trade. The widening and deepening of the canal so as to admit of the passage of barges loaded to 100 or 300 tons, would solve the coal question, and place coal in LaFayette at a price lower than a half dozen "coal roads" can ever possibly bring it to Indianapolis. It ,vould pay LaFayette to do this, if a liberal extension of lease could be obtained on her behalf of that portion of the cabal between the Pittsburg dam and tlie Coal Creek coal region. We believe now, as we have always believed, that LaFayette has in the canal an advantage which, properly used, will enable her to distance all her sister cities in providing cheap fuel atid' cheap transportation for manufacturers.—La Fayette Journal.

"who does the \Vabash

& Erie Canal belong to," Is often asked and as often goes unanswered. That it should belong to either the State, or a certain class of her creditors, and be con trolled by the one o'r the other, plainly evident. But that its real owner ship is not clearly understood, is the fault of the different Legislatures that have met in this State siuce 1866, the time of the expiration of the Butler eontract. Each General Assembly has shunned this important question, as though it was a contamination to touoh it,' while at the same time the great work has passed into the hands of speculative companies more than one hun dred miles of it suffered to go into decay and the remainder not kept in« condi tion to be able to do one half the business it could and ought to do, if properly cared for and managed. It is a great and important w.ork of vast benefit to a large portion of the people of this State of the value of many millions of dollars, and its ownership should be fixed and permanently decided by the Legislature of the State. To suffer such an important improvement to remain ownerless, is certainly not doing justice to the people living along the section where it runs. Terre Haute is greatly interested in this matter. To give us water communication to the lakes, would add much to our natural interests. But that communication should be perma nent, secure aud lasting. It should not be subject to the control of any other authority than the Stat^itself. Foreign bondholders should have nothing to do with it, but it should be under the control of our own citizens. We say to the editor of the LaFayette

ENGLAND pays well for the brains she employs in public affairs. It is said on good authority that the fee marked on Sir Roundell Palmer's brief in the Geneva arbitration case is 30,000 guineas —equivalent to more than $150,000. Besides this, he got 2,000 .guineas for his share in preparing "the case/' and in5"* ^Tin rut •.. JULw.

numerable consultation fees of ten guineas and upwards. Enormous as are the sums acquired at the English bar, this would be the best year's jncorae of any lawyer on record. Lord Westbury's highest annual earning, when he was Sir Richard Bethel were less than $160,000. And the poor of England, are poor indeed, and the rich are richer and becoming rii.-her daily. Is there not some truth in the saying that

A STORY is told of a soldier who was frozen in Sibera. His last remark was, "It is ex—." He then froze as stiff as marble. In the summer of 1860 some physicians found him, after having laid frozen for one hundred and fifteen years. They gradually thawed him, and upon animation being restored, he concluded hi3 sentence with—"ceedingly cold." This is not more remarkable than the example of some old fossils in the political world. A real, genuine Bourbon, of the Journal school, who has been frozen for the last twenty years, wakes up, "many times and oft," and exclaims, "The old land marks of 1798 must be sustained."

A GENTLEMAN in Delaware county Ohio, sheds a little light on the comet matter. The Swiss astronomer thinks we will have a conflagration. The Dela ware man thinks there will be a freeze, such as will transform each individual human into a frozen statue.- Here is rare opportunity for the excitable por tion of community who are determined to believe in something terrible as the result of the comiug of the comet. They can have their choice, burn or freeze, privilege never before accorded in a case of this kind.

question, '-Whom will the country have for President rather than General Grant?" and makes the proper observation "Those who are so bitterly opposed to Genera] Giant's re-election are bound, now that the year is advancing, to tell us something about their own candidates for the Presidency."

Very well. Our first choice is Charles Francis Adams, the man who made the wisest speech of all that were heard in the American Congress before the war, and who during the war was of inestimable service in keeping us out of European complications, and who since the war has lived in dignified retirement, and who, while out of debt to the politicians, has consummate knowledge of them.—Cincinnati Commercial.

Very well. Our first choice is Lyman Trumbull, the man who could not be seduced by all the force of party discipline and partisan threats to vote to impeach a President of the United States, when his unprejudiced judgment told him that there was, neither by the law nor in fact, a case made out and who steadily, uniformly, consistantly and heroically votes to advance the interests of the whole country, and never forgets the duty of a patriotic statesman to play the role of an ambitious politician or further the designs of an adroit demagogue.

PERIODICALLY, aydatshort intervals, comes 'a growl at collegiate education which is productive of much amusemeut and not a little regret inside the college camp, and seems to have iittleeffect elsewhere. It is too frequently uttered from the press, in which the press perhaps not unfairly represents a large" portion of the public, and its tone is usually that of Mr. Greeley's famous mot: "Of all horned cattle deliver me from collegegraduates." The cry is sometimes inexplicable, fof one* of the successful pianaging editors of the country, his chief, himself, aud we think a fair majority of his staff,1 college men, has been heard to deprecate the inelli* ciency of college-bred mfen as journal-' ists.—2V.

very truthfully says what we

want in regard to life insurance companies is, a law limiting the amount of salaries paid the officers, limiting the percentage of commissions paid the agents, and obliging the committee to pay back on lapsed policies 60 per cent, of the premiums paid, and interest. We are charged for insurance about three times the actual risk toih companies, so that two-thirds of all the money paid them, deducting the small additions to policies, is' squandered in exlravagauce.

COL. FORNEY says he remembers how Grant "abstained from the Presidency until it was forced upon him." We remember it too and we thought at the time, and we think now, that to force the Presidency upon him was a damnable outrage. Not an outrage upon him however, but upon the rest of us.—

HAVING

any

man as

leader, but only, principles, and if Mr Hesing has expressed any particular sen tirnents on a certain subject, it does not follow at all that they, ever will be those of the masses of the German Republicans Their sentiments are Republican in the true sense of the word, and, therefore they are decidedly opposed to the candi dacy for the office of President ot a man who goes into the contest backed by hundred thousand officeholders. They would regard his election not as an ex pression of the free will of the people, but rather as an usurpation, like one of those ancient, self-elected Roman Emperors who.'marched into the Eternal City at the head of their legions. They are also opposed to the present system of civil ser vice, where a man's efficiency for office is not judged by his efficiency and honesty but by the degree to which he will allow himself to be made the vile tool to serve the 'personal interests of designing poli ticians. And those so-called Republican leaders, who hold on to Grant and office will find themselves" badly mistaken they think, because they have nursed some of the cheap German papers by subsidies and government patronage into the sup port of the administration ring, they thereby had got any influence over the German Republicans. Those papers areso well aware of the fact that their readers all look through their shallowness and lack of principle, that they hardly attempt to justify their standpoint in any serious manner. The German Republicans are wont to watch aud judge for themselves Ever since some true Republicans in the Senate have attempted to correct abuses and introduce reforms and thereby encountered the oppo sition and enmity of the Adminis tration party, the people are no longer in doubt on which side is right and honesty and where to look for" the welfare of the country.

Yeas and Neighs.—If horses could make themselves understood in human language, they would signify by a universal "Yea,1' their assent to the statement that the MUSTANG LINIMENT is the best remedy extant for all these external ailments, and by a mostemphatic "Neigh!" show their displeasure at every attempt to use any other preparation in its stead. Ever since its introduction at St. Louis, at the close of the Mexican War, in 1849, it has proved a signal blessing to horse and man—curing, with absolute certainty and wonderful despatch, such equine diseases as spavin, ringbone, poll evil, scratches, hoofale, &c., and relieving and finally removing the painful affections which attack the muscles, sinews and external glands of human beings. It is a fact beyond contradiction that for all injuries or complaints of man or quadrupeds to which an external remedy is applicable, the MUTANG LINIMENT is preferable to every other.

We are often asked, do we intend ultimately to monopolize all the principal points of Indiana and Michigan. Our answer is always in the spirit that

In this young and growing country a firm that is true that the interests of the people, and breaks loose from the old damaging Western custom of "High Prices and Big Profits," and throwing itself upon the bosom of the loving, earnest, wideawake people of the West, distributes its merchandise fairly, honestly and cheaply we say any firm thus pushing forward, cannot tell where such a great mercantile reformation will carry it. Its members must only be true to every duty of the present, have faith in the times in which they live, and leave the rest to the development of a people and a nation that cannot be matched the broad world over.
