WE are perfectly nnconscions of having given any offense to the Ishmaelite who writes half-stickful paragraphs for the Terre Haute Journal, yet the billious creature cannot find words too abusive to say of ui personally. His last pet expression is^that the people kicked us out of the Auditor's office. On the contrary they honored us by giving us that responsible office for four years, and we hav yet to bear~ of a Democrat who finds fault with the manner in which we discharged our duties, or of one who regrets having voted for ns. If we mistake not the editor of the Journal was at one time an aspirant for official position in Vigo county, but bis party would not trust him for even one term. A pretty fellow he Is to throw that kind of dirt at us !—Sullivan Democrat.

ITis said that Terre Haute roosters are not admitted into the Roosters' Protective Association who can not make a living on five cents per day. The investment is made on a glass of beer at a free lunch saloon, and on the privilege thus purchased, nourish themselves from the lunch department of the free and easy. If this were not the rule, the organization could not be maintained.

WE wish it distinctly understood that while we do not entertain any serious objections to having our physiognomy remodled, we do most earnestly object to the proposed artists. Professional bullies and practical beats need not apply for the contract, unless they give sufficient security to defray the incidental funeral expenses, which may result from the enterprise.

WE learn from Mr. Secretary Modesett, of the Horticultural Society of this locality, that the next tegular monthly horticultural meeting will be held in connection with the Spring exhibition of the fruits and floral productions of the Vigo soil, at Rogers' Springs, June 6th.

OUR exchanges are still anxiously inquiring, "who is this distinguished 'Judge Briggs,' of Terre Haute?" Let them possess their souls in patience until Dan. rises to explain who Briggs is, as he has his own position on political topics and his explanation of that position. Daniel excels Bill Nye on the "rise to explain."

THE short-wiuded editor of the Terre Haute Journal declares that Briggs of Sullivan desires to haul down the geiorious Democratic flag. The assertion' is not true. We have always supported the Democratic party, and always expect to. Nor have we proposed anything contrary to this in the

present

LONDON, May 23.—A Hastings, a town on the English channel, contains information of a disaster to the steamer Baltimore, bound from Baltimore to Breman. While on passage it came in collision with some vessel sustaining damages of such serious character, that the Captain was compelled to steer for the nearest port. The collision occurred last night, and owing to the darkness it was impossible to learn the name of the vessel which she collided with, nor the extent of damage which the vessel had sustained. The Captain of the Baltimore succeeded in reaching the English channel, and the vessel is now on the shore near Hastings, where, after considerable danger, the passengers were all safely landed. On examination it was found that the Baltimore, in the collision, had been cut down to within four feet of the water's edge.

LONDON, May 23, A. M.—The Times in its issue this morning anticipates the probable adjournment of the Geneva Conference for a periocl, until the present difficulty respecting the indirect claims question be satisfactorily settled. It believes thkt the solution of the present difficulty which renders a postponement necessary will be discovered and become apparent to the Americans, and hoftes that by an early adjustment the arbitartion may be again allowed to proceed.

IKJNBON, May |^rtictt^| r§g&riding the disaster to the steamer Baltimore have been received from Hastings., The vessel lies on the flat rocks 600 yards from the beach and full of water. The collision drove a hole in the Baltimore sixteen ffept long and seyen feet wide. The Admiralty officer went to her assistance and ,£ her of he* carjgo.

Schenck officially informed Earl Granville that the United States Government authorizes a complete absolute denial of the Btatetadent by Sir Sta^ord Nbrthcote, at a recent meeting in' the Exeter Commerce, that the distinct understanding of the British Commissioner in signing the Treaty of Washington was that the claims for indirect damages should not be presented at Geneva.

It is stated authoritatively that Northcote's statement i| fully corr^|prat^dafid Supported b/otllr members of the British Commission who negotiated the treaty, and that a declaration will shortly be framed by Northcote, wherein the exact language used by the American Commissioners will be embraced^', The declaration is signed in verification by the whole of the members who composed the British Commission.

NEW YORK, May 23.—The weather: this morniug is cloudy and,threatening, and there is every indication of a continuation of the storm, which set in last night.

OH the question of the tariff, I entirely eoncur in' your views as to the policy to be pursued' in the effbrt to overthrow the present Administration,and to combine upon the simplest grounds all the elements of the opposition and to concentrate their onitM support upon a candidate of high character, whose success will redeem the politics of the cou ntry. I would heartily support Horace Greeley if should he be considered the strongest man for the place. '.*»•

OTTUMWA, IOWA, May 23.—The Ot«£nw& Democrat, the leading organ of the Jeffersonian Democracy in the West, contains the following in its issue of this morning:,

Mr. Greeley's letter of acceptance settles the question as to what the Baltimore* Convention will do. In advising the passive policy the Democracy will nominate Mr. Greeley, and in conjunction with the Liberals press his claim before the people.

ties in the next Presidential election, and that we will support the nominees of the Cincinnati Convention if they are endorsed by the .Baltimore Convention.'

l!5 Position of the Genaaa Press. The following Cterman newspapers have declared for Greeley and Brown unequivocally:

St. Lonis WesUiehe Post. Chicago Freie Press. New York Taaesnachriehten. Peoria Deutsche Zeitung. New Orleans Deutsche Zeitung. Minneapolis Freie Preshe.

Chicaeo Union. New York Journal.^

Milwaukee Rera'd. Cleveland Waechter am Erie. Davenport Demokrat. Buffalo Volhsfreund. Pittsburgh VolksbkM. .- a s, Detroit Abend Post. The following German papers have declared for Greeley as against Grant:

Cleveland Oermania. Columbus Westbote. Davenport Deutsche Zeitung. Buffalo Demokrat. San Francisco mikrat. Newark Volksmauu. Brooklyn Anzeiger. Charleston Deutsche Zeitung. Louisville Anzeiger.

The New York Independent has a sensible article on "The Use and Abu-e of Caricature," and expresses the very obvious but none the less timely opinion that when caricature is used as a means of holding up to public contempt persons who in reality are contemptible it is a legitimate political and social wea but when it attempts to create a lau~ the expense of a man whose only of is opposition to the political notions of the proprietors of the paper in which it appears, it is itself contemptible. Doubtless Mr. Nast did as good service by his pencil in the overthrow of the New York "ring" as any other man did by his pen or his words he cut his way, so to speak, into the heads of stupid people, as a ranting actor may split the ears of the groundlings who, for the most part, are capable of nothing but dumb-show and noise. At present he is not doing so well, for his caricatures fail because they have not their point in truth, which is essential to telling caricature. His cartoons bear insincerity on their very face—perhaps they bear something worse, as did his cartoons in which Catholicism was ridiculed, as soon as one read in Harper's Weekly that Mr. Nast was himself an adherent of that faith.

j^Mr. Toorbees on the Rampage. We publish below a letter written Hon. D, W. Voorhees to Oftpt. John C. Briggs, one of his law partners. Having got fairly started in the work of denunciation, Dan hardly knows where to stop. It seems to be his meat and drink to hurl invectives at the men who have formerly been proud to call themselves, his supporters.

There is a growing disposition all over the land to throw off the shackles of party dictation as the judgment of honest voters may suggest to them is best for their o« interest and the country's good. Mr. Voorhees himself is evidently under this influence, for he refuses to support the Liberal ticket, no matter what the Baltimore Convention may do.

When.he impeaches tne honesty of those who have expressed a willinguess to support Mr. Greeley in certain contingencies, be gives utterance to a sentiment that may-return to plagu* him in the future. His voice has been potential in this district, but it is so no longer. —Sullivan Democrat.

ALCORN got in "one for his nob," yesterday, on his Senatorial ooUeaget the carpet-bagger Ames, of Mississippi. In reply to the son-in-law of Ben. Butler, Governor Alcorn said it must baof little interest to him (Ames) how Mississippi finances had been handled sluedIfc had no interest £nd not even a residence in the State, and was not likely to remain long its nominal representative.

A SPECIAL dispatch to the Cincinnati Enquirer says that farmer Garretson, of Cape May county, New Jersey, thinks he has discovered Captain Kidd's treasures. While digging ditches on his farm, near Fishing Creek, be says he found a chest of gold coin valued at $30,000. It is said that Captain Kidd's name was painted upon the chest. ,'m
