Terre Haute—Its Future.

Hon. W.D. Kelly, Representative in Congress from. Philadelphia, and the especial advocate of the coal and iron interests of Pennsylvania, remarked a few days ago, in Washington, that in his judgment Terre Haute, in the State of Indiana, would one day, not far in the future, be the greatest manufacturing •point for iron and steel, in this Government." A distinguished citizen of Indianapolis, a few days ago, gave it as his belief, that the time was not far distant, when Terre Haute would be a more extensive manufacturing point, and a larger city than the Capital of the State. Meeting a number of prominent men in a distant city, the other day, we did not find one who was unfamiliar with the flattering- prospects of Terre Haute,andallliad great faith in her future growth, owing to her proximity to the block coal fields the beauty of her location the healthfulness of the climate the superiority of her common school system the enterprise of her citizens, and the refinement of her society. Everywhere our fame has gone abroad. We are fast becoming an object of interest to enterprising capitalists all over this country. ]STo one thing in the manufac turing of iron in this country has ever created a greater and more wide-spread interest among the heavy capitalists engaged in its productions than the discovery of the block coal fields of Indiana, That this coal, just as it comes lrom the pit, will produce as good iron as that made from charcoal, is, in a financial point of view, a very important fact

And that this is the fact, the many fur. naces now in full blast, situated above these veius of coal, fully and completely attest.

In the facility for procuring Ibis coal, and the railroad facilities for getting the iron ore, and finding a market for the pig iron, there is no city not one anywhere on this wide continent, so favorably located as Terrc Haute. This is perhaps stating the case strongly, but it is the fact.

But a few days ago the T. H. & I. Railroad reduced its rates on coal to Indianapolis to one dollar per ton, aud the rates on the same to this city, to fifty cents. Is (here not here an important matter to be carefully considered by the capitalist intending to erect blast furnaces for the purpose of using Indiaua coal? It costs only one-half the amount of freight, to have the coal laid down in this city, that it does in Indianapolis. How much this would amount to in the course of one year, is a question that will be figured on by all men who are seeking an investment for their money iu the production of iron, or iu any other large manufacturing establishment.

Taking all these things into consideration, we feel assured that the future of this beautiful city is flattering indeed. Her surroundings are brim full of prosperity her days to come are more pleasing to contemplate than her days that are past, and her prospects were never so encouraging as now*

PRESIDENT GRANT is rather unpopular with the colored population of Massachusetts, for in the State Convention which was held in Boston last week to choose delegates to the National Colored Convention to be held in New Orleans on the 10th inst., a resolution mildly adopting in advance the expected action of the Philadelphia Convention was voted down by 25 to 18. The colored men are dissatisfied because their claims to office have not been duly recognized in the New England States by the Republican party, although they are considered eligible to any position in the South and they are very indignant at the treatmeut extended to Senator Sumner by the special friends of the Administration.

The Liberal Reform Club at Milwaukee recommends the formation of local clubs throughout the State similar to the one formed in that city, "in order to enable the State to send as strong and worthy a delegation to the Cincinnati Convention as possible." The call of the Cincinnati Convention does not contemplate that it shall be a delegate convention, but rather a conference of earnest and influential Republicans.

Prof. J. W. Foster writes to the Chicago Tribune: "It requires no prophetic ..vision to see, that before the lapse of a -half century, the block coal regious of

Indiana will be the principal seat of steel manufacture, not only of this conntry, but ofthewqrld."

Cleveland and Cincinnati.

The Nevr York Herald, while aiming only to be on the winning side, has not had the good fortune to get there since the election of Franklin Pierce. It advocated Fremont against Buchanan in '56, Douglas against Lincoln in '60, Seymour against Grant in '68, and it is now against the Liberal Republican movement. Its historical resources being as vast as its political sagacity is prophetic, it nat urally illustrates its prediction that the Cincinnati Convention will foil,

?°mJa

roo^

it with the Cleveland Convention in lot4, which nominated Fremont and Cochrane. That Convention included not a single statesman as prominent in our politics as either of the fifteen most conspicuous leaders of the Cincinnati movement, viz: Gratz Brown, Carl Schurz, Horace Greeley, Henry R. toelden J. P. Cox, Charles Sumner, Samuel Bowles, Edward Atkinson, Lyman Trumbull, David A. Wells, Governor C'ui tin, Seuator Fenton, ex-Senator Fowler, of Tennessee, Senator Tipton of Nebraska, or Hon. J. B. Grinnell of Iowa, to say nothing of the leading independent Republican journals which are already ranged upon the Liberal side, and the fact that about one half the Republicans iu Congress, openly or secretly, sympathize with the movement. The Cleveland Convention consisted almost exclusively of Radical Germans. Their chief aim was to impress upon President Lincoln their opinion that his Administration was in many things too slow, too lenient, too mild, and too conservative that he had retained in command too long his proslavery Generals, and dismissed, on too slight grounds, his most conspicuous antislavery General, Fremont. It was specially designed as an intimation that his Cabinet, composed of such men as Seward, Bates, and Montgomery Blair, was too conservative. Though the convention was not a very large one, Mr. Lincoln regarded it as having strength enough to defeat him in several of the Western States, and perhaps endanger his re-election. He accordingly yielded to the demands of General Fremont, and retired Montgomery Blair from the Cabinet, putting Governor Derinison, of Ohio, in his stead. To that extent the convention, though small, was effective.

The Cincinnati Convention will have a far broader scope and more formidable character. What it will do, we do not predict. But it is about time the"narrowminded blockheads whom Providence, for some inscrutable purpose, permits to edit most of the country newspapers," and equally the immigrant graduates of the Dublin University who write the political fanfaronades in the New York Herald, should discover that a movement in which more than half the brains of the Republican party are enlisted, is bound to make its impression in some form. Already it is the subject of more discussion, reflection, and preparation throughout the country than the Philadelphia Convention. And yet there remains a month in which to extend and perfect its organization.—Chicago Tribune.

Damaging Discoveries by the Senate Arms Committee. The discoveries made bv the French Arms Investigating Committee, this forenoon, were of the most damaging nature. The two witnesses examined were Gen. Rufus Installs, of New York, and Gen. W. B. Franklin, Vice President and Agent of the Colt's Arms Company, of Hartford. Gen. Ingalls testified that he obtained, in 1866, five thousand dollars worth of the stock of the Remington Company, and held it until a year and a hall' or two years ago. He did not remember whether he had it in his own name or that of some other persons when he sold it, or whether it was in his possession iu January, 1871. He did remember, however, that he sold it to Colonel Squire for three thousand dollars He did not know of his own personal knowledge that any other officers of the army or Government officials were owners of stock in the Remington Company, and he refused to testify as to what he had heard. On that point his testimony is especially interesting,from the fact that a few miuutes before, Ingalls had emphatically denied that he had any connection with the Remington Company durthe Franco-Prussian war, and further, because Colonel Squire, on the 19th of last month, testified that no one else besides the Remingtons, himself, Mr. Shep herd, Mr. Hefier aud Brooks held any stock in the Remington Arms Company, or did in the year 1870. Squire's testimony on that point is: "The stock is all owned in the family. The men other than those belonging to the family only own, I think, one share, so as to enable them to be directors. These were stockholders in 1870, and they were all."

General Franklin's testimony discovered two very important facts. The first was that a neighbor and especial friend of Robeson was employed by Poultney & Trimble to negotiate with the Navy Department for the purchase of the ten thousand navy rifles, and was paid by them ten thousand dollars for this service. The other point was that the War Department, in December, 1S70, sold to General Franklin, for Samuel Remington, nine six-barreled Gatling fjuns, and received in payment nine ten-barreled guns, although no report of this transaction, or any reference to it of any kiud has ever been made iu the Bureau or Department reports, in the report of sales sent to the House of Representatives, January 24, or in the testimony of tha Secretary of War, or any Government officials. Franklin testifies that every body with whom he dealt knew that Remington had bought these Gatliqg guns aud intended to send them Jo France, and that the officers of the Ordnance Bureau knew all about the$e things as well as he did. These transactions, it will be remembered, occurred at laast two month after the Ordance Bureau had been directed to make no mcfre sales to Remington.— Cin. Commercial.

BLACK HILLS OF DAKOTA.

Expeditions to be Prevented—No Gold J: ound There—Gen. Hancock's Letter. HEADQUARTERSDEP'T OF DAKOTA.

ST. PAUL, MINN., March 26,1872. To the Editor of the Sioux City Times, Sioux City, Iowa:

SIR: Letters are being received at these headquarters from various parts of the United States, making inquiries iu regard to the reputed gold discoveries in the section of country west of the Missouri river known as -the "Black Hills of Dakota," and. asking, also, if expeditions," presumed to be now in process of organization will be permitted to penetrate that region. The section of country referred to is set apart as an Indian reservation, by treaty with the Sioux, and the faith of the Government is understood to be pledged to protect it from the encroachment of, and settlement or occupation by, the whites. Accordingly, any parties or "expeditions" which may organize for the purpose of visiting or "prospecting" the region in question, will be engaging in an unlawful enterprise, .the. consummation of which it will be my duty, under the law, and my instructions, to prevent, by the use, if necessary, of the troops at my disposal. In this connection, I may mehtion that I am just in receipt of an official letter from General Stanley in command, subordinate to me, on the Missouri river, in which he refers, incidentally, to the Black Hills gold reports, in which he says no gold has been found there. If you will give publicity in your columns to the statements here contained, I do not doubt it will be the means of saving many worthy people from incurring useless expense. I am, Sir, very respectfully, your obedient servant, W. S. Hancock,

Maj.^ei^lJ^. A. Commanding.

SPRINGFILD, MASS., is quite seiiously interesting itself concerning the case of Miss Catharine Donovan, a young woman who, according to newspaper reports has subsisted exclusively upon occasional sips of water since July of last year without becoming emaciated. That the superstitious yokels of rural districts should give stupid credence to fancied miracles of this sort is not surprising, but educated journalists miyht be supposed to know that since every tissue of of the body and every vital Action are produced by the direct conversion of the food consumed, abstinence from food without loss of bodily bulk is as manifestly impossible as the continued burning of a lamp without consumption ol oil. Even if the maximum duration of life uuder starvation had not been clearly demonstrated by physiologists, one would think that the hysterical imposture of fasting females had been exposed enough to shake the credulity of at least the leading portion of the community.
