TUESDAY, JUNE 11,1872.

The Convention.

From the latest and best advice we have received from Indianapolis, we are led to the conclusion that the Hon. M, C. Kerr, of New Albany, stands out most prominently as the coming man for the nomination for Governor of this State on the Democratic ticket. We learn that the Hon. Thomas A. Hendricks has firmly declined the proposed proffered nomination. Had he not done so, he would have been the almost, if not the unanimous choice of the convention, on the first ballot.

Both of these gentlemen are favorites with the party in Indiana, and both de serve well of their party. Mr. Hendricks is doubtless the most popular Democratic leader in the country and be deserves that popularity. Mr. Kerr, while not so well known, is fully as popular where known. He will in all probability, be the choice of the convention in the event of Mr. Hendricks refusing the honor when officially tendered him, if such an official tender is made.

The Hon. Bayless Hanna, of this city, will have but little if any opposition as a candidate before the Convention for nomination to the office of Attorney General of the State. A better selection certainly cannot be made, and we hope he will be chosen.

With the exception of Treasurer Ryan, who will be re-nominated, we have information as to other probabilities.

The question of endorsing Greeley at Baltimore, if it comes before the Convention at all, will be most likely to result in favor of the endorsement What better can be done

Stormy Session—Adjournment. The Senate and House of Representatives of the United States, after a prolonged session, has adjourned the second session of the Forty-second Congress.

The closing scenes in the House were unworthy the constituency of those who took so disgraceful a part as to give offense and the lie to brother members. Biugham was the offender in the first sense, and Morgan in the second. Both should have been placed in the custody of "ifuSargeant-at-Arms. The Senate and House Representatives of this great at on no be a it he of of such wild confusion and diagram, without the proper punishment being dealt out to the offenders, whoever they be. And we think the majority of the people of the couDtry, of whatever party, will pronounce the Speaker direlict in duty, because he did not deal out summary justice to the offeuders, in a manner they would remember to their dying day.

The country at large will rejoice that the second long, wearisome, and in a measure, fruitless session of the Forty second Congress has at last ended, though they will denounce the closing afternoon's performance in the House of Representatives as ruffianly, and only proper in the prize ring or at a horse race.

The Senate adjourned in great confusion, the telegraph tells us, but not so disgracefully as did the House.

FROM a paper published at Indianapolis, called the Western Independ ent, we clip the following sensible paragraph

How

any intelligent Republican, who is

not blinded by party infatuation, can support, for re-election to the Presidency, a man whose avarice has been so great that he has merited the appelation of the "National Hog a man ot -whom it is known that he never cared enough tor the party principles to vote the ticket, and who is not sufficient in ormation to enable him to form an intelligent political opinion who is woll and universally known to have been a constitutional inebriate before he became President who is equally well known to have frequently been ina state ot unstable equilibrium since his elevation to the position of Chief Executive, and whose sole claims to the suffrages of an enlightened people are based on the fact of his supposed militiary qualiffeation, is beyond our reach of comprehension.

If this be true, and it has been before charged, and never contradicted officially, we know of but one answer to this proposition and that is: "intelligent Republicans who are not blinded by party infatuation" cannot conscientiously cast their ballots for such a man Yet, there are moral men iu this city, as there are in all the cities of the North, who are just so full to overflowing of political prejudice and hero worship, that they will cast their ballots for General Grant, as often as he is a candidate.

THE Indianapolis Evening News The nomination ot Grant and Wilson is not received with much enthusiasm anywhere. The action of the Convention was so well-known before band, and there was nothing in it calculated to arouse anybody.

Whatever the calculations, nobody was unduly aroused except officeholders and seekers. Of course their arousal was anticipated. If they did not do the daily bidding of their master or his minions, they would retire to the shades of private life in a few short days.

THE five survivors of Mr. Lincoln's Cabinet as original]/ constituted are Seward, Chase, Blair, Welles and Cam-®j eron. The latter alono indorses Gr&nft* It will be remembered that be was turned out of the Cabinet lu dlegrace,

Personal Probabilities.

The Indianapolis Evening Journal publishes the following personal probabilities of the action-of the State Democratic Convention now assembling in that city:

Jiin Ryan will have no opposition for the position ot State Treasurer. Mr. Ed. Price, of Sullivan, is a prominent eandidato for Clerk of the Supreme Court.

Bayless W. Hanna will be renominated for Attorney General, notwithstanding he has incurred the displeasure of Alvord and other leading Democrats by refusing a written request to withdraw the suit against Bright.

High water and the Clem trial will prevent the regular attendance of the Tall Sycamore, but he will probably take a run down Tuesday night, to see what he can do in the way of protest against the humiliation of an endorsement of Greeley by the Convention.

Hon. Tom Dowling, of Terre Haute, the friend and benefactor of Stoll, will hoist Father Alvord trom his position as Chairman of the State Central Committee, and will make Bob Sproule the Secretary. Mr. Sproule is fortifying himself with a frequent diet of catfish in anticipation of arduous brain-work.

Hon. John C. Shoemaker is being pushed to the wall by Hon. John B. Stoll. Having entirely recovered from his attack of dyspepsia, and having testified to the virtues of Seltzer Aperient, Mr. Stoll is making a vigorous canvass, and is using Shoemaker's failure to answer certain interrogatories put to him in writing, in relation to his alleged reception of interest on the public moneys, with telling effect. Present appearauces indicate that Mr. Stoll will b?nominated.

At a secret caucus of leading Democratic politicians, held last Saturday, Hon. Thos. A. Hendricks positively and unequivocally declined the nomination for Governor. He was wrestled with, but persisted in his refusal with an earnestness of denial that carried conviction of his sincerity. It was then decided that Mr. Hendricks should be made permanent Chairman of the Convention, and be is now hard at work preparing his extempore speech in acknowledgment of the unexpected honor. Mr. Hendricks' speech will be the keynote of the campaign, and will favor the support of Greeley.

What a wonderfully prophetic imagination George Harding has!

The Philadelphia Platform. The wisdom aud the necessity of the Cincinnati Convention have been again vindicated by the action of the officeholders at Philadelphia. It compelled the Senate of the United States, against its repeated previous refusals, to take up and pass the act of general amnesty and it compelled the Philadelphia Convention to declare that it heartily "approved the action of Congress in extending amnesty" to the late rebels, and making Alexander H. Stephens and all his associates as eligible to the Presidency and to the United States Senate as General Logan or General Butler. It further compelled the Philadelphia Convention to declare that any system of civil service under which the subordinate positions of the Government are considered rewards for mere party zeal is "fatally demoralizing," and, therefore, they favor a reform of the system by laws which shall abolish the evils of patronage, and make "honesty, efficiency, and fidelity the essential qualifications for public position."

How strikingly did these officials con fess the truth declared at Cincinnati in the following terms:

The civil service of the Government has become a mere instrument of partisan tyranny and personal ambition, and au object of selfish greed. It is a scandal and reproach upon free institutions, and breeds a demoralization dangerous to the perpetuity of Republican Government.

We therefore regard a thorough reform of the civil service as one of the most pressing necessities of the hour that honesty, capacity, aud fidelity constitute the only valid claims to public employment that the offices of the Government cease to be a matter of arbitrary favoritism and patronage, and that public station shall become again a place of honor.

The Convention was eloquent in defence of the Constitutional amendments. The Grant supporters in the Senate have the numerical majority of two to one, and at this session have passed landgrant bills donating hundredsof millions vf. acres of public land*,,bxn under the coeTdiouif. tji/i,Cincinnati platform, Jay Cooke (who holds 57,000,000 of acres donated to him hy Congress) and his friends resolved that they were opposed to all "further grants of public lands to corporations and monopolies." The same Convention resolved that the "franking privilege ought to be abolished," and they call attention to the fact that, though in numerical majority in both Houses of Congress, the friends ot Gen. Grant have twice during each year of his administration rejected bills to abolish that privilege. They do this under a knowledge that Mr. Greeley has for twenty-five years consistently advocated the abolition of the privilege.

Ifworkingmen can find any comfort in the following resolution, they are hopeful in the extreme:

Among the questions which press for attention is that which concerns the relations of capital and labor, and the Republican party recognize the duty of so shaping legislation as to secure full protection and the amplest field for capital, and for labor, the creator of capital, the largest opportunities and a just share of the mutual profits of these two great servants of civilization.

Again, under the pressure of Cincinnati, they urge a speedy restoration of specie payments.

The Cincinnati Convention declared that the question of taxation was one legitimately belonging to the people, and that the decision by the people, through their representatives in Congress, should be respected by the President. This Mr. Greeley, in his letter of acceptance, heartily approved, declared that he would never interpose his veto to prevent a reduction or repeal of taxes deemed by Congress to be unjust and oppressive. How has the officeholders' convention answered this? Here is their resolution:

The annual revenue, after paying current debts, should furnish a moderate balance for the reduction of the principal of the debt, and revenue, except so much as may be derived from a tax on tobacco and liquors, should be raised from duties on importations, the duties on which should be so adjusted as to aid in securing remunerative wages to the laborer, and promote the industries aui growth aud prosperity of the whole country.

It should be remembered who composed that Convention. It was made up of the owners of National banks the meu who hold Brittish patents for making Bessemer steel the men who own the salt, iron and coal monopolies the meti who own the lumber forests and millfe the men who are allowed lo import common wool at 15 per cent, duty, to niake carpets aud blankets, and for whose exclusive benefit a tax of 70 per cent, is laid on carpets, aud 100 per cent, on blankets. These men are protected in all their robberies b.y acts of Congress, aud when these men speak of taxes that will "promote the industries and growth and prosperity of the nation," they mean those special'tax^s which, yielding no. revenue to the Government, are

Kaid

over to them personally. They ave pledged their President to veto any act which will lesson the tax on nickel, and: the owner of the nickel mine contributes his thousands to re-elect the president to veto any repeal of this ta^ ou coal, aud salt, aud lumber, aiid the faoriopolists in these contribute thou* sands to re-elect the men .who promises to protect them. This resolution, whieh literfcliymeans nothing, miist be under-, *too4.iD tbft interests of the., men who adopted for feottf

strued, it is a declaration that Grant, in consideration of bis renomination, has agreed to permit no interference^ by Congress with the licensed robberie of the monopolists and privileged classes.

Taken as a whole, the platform is ,a c.jwa-rdly evasion of all the distinctive policies of the Administration, and an unwilling confession that the arraignment of that Administration at Cincinnati was a true one.—Chicago Tribune.

SENATOR WILSON'S nomination was not very favorably received in the Seuate. Colfax gave him a small shake of the hand, but with one exception—Howe of Wisconsin—none of his associates congratulated him. The Liberal Senators did so warmly. Conkling walked up to him, looked at the dispatch, just received, announcing his success, and turned away without a word. It is pleasant to see such cordiality and good feeling.

THE reason why so many Republican papers iu this State support General Grant is because so many of them are edited by Grant's postmasters and custom house officers. There are three of this kin 1 in Westchester county, and eighteen other United States officeholding editors in other counties of the State. So in Florida, the only four papers supporting Grnnt are edited by government officers. —Buffalo Courier.-

Keep the Hair Unblemished.—"I am like an old hemlock—withered at the top,," said a venerable Indian Chief, pointing to his thin and bleaching locks. Thousands of men and women in civilized society, much younger than the old Sagamore, are like him, "withered at the •top," simply because they have neglected to use the means of preserving and beautifying the hair which science had placed at their disposal. If LYON'S CATHAIRON be faithfully applied ouce or twice a day, to the fibers and the scalp, it is just as impossible that the hair should decay, wither, fall out or become harsh and fuzzy, as that a meadow, duly refreshed with nightly dews and sunlit rains, should become arid and barren of green blades. This matchless preparation not only keeps the hair alive and the skin of the head in a healthy and clean condition, but actually multiplies the filaments and imparts to them a lustre, flexibility and wavy beauty unattainable by any other no le of treatment. It does not, like the metalic and sulphurous hair dyes, dry up the natural moisture of the scalp, but supplies nutriment to the roots of the hair and vigor to the fibers.

CARPETS.

AJLTV-- VICTORIOUS I

Our recent onslaught upou the Carpet trade caused a decided gensatiou We have never seeira more complete success. Within 24 hours after we had announced our prices to the public, our Carpet room was crowded with customers, mnd each week our sales of these goods have continued to increase.

It is the Hit Bird that Flutters!

This accounts for the fluttering among our competitors. They got their backs up at once and rushed iuto print to tell the people that they had reduced their Carpets to the price of ours. The people answered, "We don't believe you, and even if you have, Foster Brothers compelled you to lower your prices, or you would never have done it. We propose to give our patronage to the merchants whose prices are so low that they have never had to reduce them to meet the prices of other stores."

THE "AMBULACE RIDER" BACKED DOWN!

HE MAKES I^liLOKIOlvS

Loom" and "Family" Carpets Prove to ft

Knowing, as we did, that his "Hand Loom" Carpets, for which he was charging $1.40 and $1.50, were exactly the goods that were selling at $1.20 and $1.25, and that his so-called "Family" Carpets at $1.00 were the same as our -85c goods, we submitted to him four distinct challenges on the subject, which he has not dared, to accept.
