How Grant Loves the Soldier. Upon ordinary principles of human calculation, we should conclude that General Grant would be a sincere friend of the private soldier but the whole history of his administration shows that he is not. If the soldier happens to be a relative of any of the Grant or Dent families, then the President shows much friendship for him but if he is an "outside barbarian," and has none of this imperial blood coursing through his veins, then there is no hope of any favors for him at the White House. On the contrary, the President tomahawks him on every occasion. The most re markable case of the opposition*of the President to the soldier manifested itself just a few days before the adjournment of

Congress A private soldier in the Third Indiana Cavalry had furnished two horses for bis regiment. The horses were both lost in the service, and he applied to Congress for pay for the anitnals. Congress at once passed an act giving him the value of the property he furnished the Governmen t. What else could Congress do and be just to the private soldier who not only went himself into the ranks, but took with him, and used it for the benefit of the Government, valuable private property. The bill passed almost without any opposition, and was sent to the President for his signature. It found its way into the White House, but it never found its way out. The President vetoed it, and refused to put his signature to it. Was there ever so unjust, so little, and so mean an act? Why did the President of the United States veto such a measure as this? Can any one answer?

But what is most singular about this matter is that the very day he vetoed this poor soldier's bill, he signed an act giving 37,000,(XX) acres of land to one of the Pacific railroads. The poor Indiana soldier had no cliques and rings to ptdss his claims, -while this great railroad -interest embraces in its rings and combinations an influence that controls the President himself. He is as clay in the hands of the potter, when all the power of this mighty railroad ring is brought to bear on him. They know their man, and they use him to advantage.

But why should we go to Washington to get examples to show Grant's want of friendship for the soldier Have we not examples all around us? Well do we recollect, that immediately after his in auguration, there were two applicants for the postoffice in this city. One a gallant soldier who had served all through the war—had fought on an hundred battlefields, and in his country's service and owing to the severity of his duties, had broken down in health and been left poor in pocket. This man, Lieut. Chas. Gilmore, being entirely competent for the place, and backed by many of the best citizens of this city who were willing to endorse him to any amount, went to Washington and laid his claims before the Government for the position of Postmaster in this city. He was hardly treated with ordinary civility while there, and instead of his services in the field being of any advantage to him, they appeared to be absolutely a detriment. Well do we recollect how his pale face wore the impress of extreme disappointment, when, with empty pockets and diseased ftame, he turned from the Federal city and started homeward. He came home a broken down man a disappointed soldier, and in a few months thereafter filled a patriot's grave.

Every person knows who received the office of P. M. in this city at that time. A good man, we admit. A man in the enjoyment of the most robust health—of ample means—prosecuting a lucrative business—just in the prime and vigor of mature manhood, but who remained at home during the long years of the war, and added to his worldly professions. What excuse is there for this, in an Administration pretending to be the soldier's friend

Look at the other most important Federal appointments in this section of the State, and learn how many of them are filled with men who sacrificed some of the best years of their lives in the tented field. You will find but few such men receiving any advantage from the favors of a Government they helped to pre«

serve and protect. On the contrary,those places of ease^ajad profit are mostly filled with Ejieh 0(f Ijrawny shoulders, muscular ktmsand healthy bodies, but who, deeming discretion,the better part of valor, remained in the Chimney corner, while the battles of the country were being fought. And yet this Administration \s said to be the soldier's friend, and the henchmen of General Grant proclaim that he will stand by the men whb stood by the country. Actions speak louder than words, and the acts of this Administration give the lie direct to what it says in this particular. Like most West Point men, General

Grant has not, and never did have much respect for the private soldier. He used him to hurl him against the compact lines of the enemy, and

seemed

to have no further use for him, then or now. We find no fault, however, with what Grant did as a commanding officer all that he then and there did was, perhaps, right and proper to be done. But as President of the United States his incompetency is so apparent his want of sincerity so manifest his inattention to the business of the Government so palpable, and his disregard to the claims of the soldier so common, that, did we not speak, "even the stones would cry out."

THE party of Addition, Division, and Silence seems to be breaking down in Arkansas, as may be inferred from the fact that a Grand Jury in Hempstead county, eight of whom were colored men, have a report exposing numerous fraud^ on the part of the county officials, who are members of the Clayton wing of the Republican party. A short time ago it would have been impossible to find a colored Republican in Arkansas who would have dared to oppose any of the acts of the Clayton faction. But robberies of that infamous party have been so bold and reckless that the decent negroes are becoming ashamed of it, and are deserting it in great numbers. Clayton is^the Arkansas member of the Grant National Committee, and has been permitted to retain his seat in the United States Senate, which he acquired through fraud, in the expectation that he would be able to carry that State for Grant this fall. But his day is over and his power is gone. So the Senate has borne the discredit of his membership for nothing.

AN unkind report comes from Washington, which, if true, explains Senator Kellogg's anxiety to have Casey retained as Collector of New Orleans. The Senator has been nominated for Governor, land his election depends upon the faithfulness of a set of Grant Clubs. These are controlled by Casey, who has provided Custom House sinecures for all their leaders. If Casey were re&oved, the sinecures would be abolished, and the clubs might set so high a price on their votes that Kellogg would be unable.to buy them. Casey transfers his underlings to Kellogg, and the latter pays him by persuading the President to "suspend" the civil service reform "just once more," and continue bis cherished brother-in-law in power. What does Mr. George

William Curtis think of this little affair?

SENATOR TRUMBULL says that "the chances of Greeley iu the North-west are better than Lincoln's were in 1860." He is going to take an active part in the campaign.

Crop Prospects in Yermillion Connty— Political Matters. NEWPORT, IND., June 25,1872. Editor of Terre Haute Gazette:

In my former intrusion I neglected mentioning the crop prospects of our goodly county, which are undoubtedly the best for many years. Wheat prom ises a good yield of most excellent quality, and as harvest has commenced unless something unusual should happen, this promise will certainly be fully realized by our farmers. Corn never looked better at this time of the year. As a general thing it is remarkably free of weedffiwd js in good condition for graining. Meadows could not well be better —seldom are. The fruit prospect is also promising. All in all, Vermillion county farmers may well be gratified.

The Democratic County Convention met Saturday and was largely attended, all parts of the county being represented. It was a noticeable feature of the convention that most persons in attendance were men of some age and experience. They seemed to have come together like "fathers in Israel" to consult on some important business. And this they did. This county, like most couuties of the State, no doubt, has for sometime beeu under the control of a ring. This ring is composed mostly of county officers, who by their secret workings in caucuses and successful manipulations of conventions, merely change "teats," as the law compels them to change or quit offices by statutry limitation. They institute a kind of mutual admiration society and urge the peculiar fitness one of another for the office to which he aspires. Nor did the "ring" of this county fail to carry the point for which it was organized. The point was always carried by some means, fair or foul. Of this the people grew tired, as was evidenced by the overwhelming election of Mr. Foland to the office of County Treasurer two years ago, as an independent candidate. It was to defeat the candidates of the ring that the cbnvention made nominations last Saturday.

Mr. Renker, a weunded veteran of the late war, and who has heretofore acted with the Republican party, was nominated for Real Estate Appraiser, and will no doubt be elected. Mr. Foland was recommended for Treasurer, and his election is conceded by all. The rest of the ticket is composed of good, sound Greeley Democrats, whose moral characters give to the ticket immense strength.

Several Republicans now denominated soreheads, by men of more malice than sense, will support this county ticket with a royal will. All in attendance at the convention were for Greeley and Brown, heart and soul. Democrats of Vermillion county are not in favor of these men as scape-goats, but are for them through principle.

There are at least one hundred Liberal Republicans in this county^and if the Grant men would save it Dr. Burnett should be sent with 3ome adhesive plasters to bind his erring brethren to th« Grant platform. He must bring along with him, William Wirt Curry, who must change his

theology

and preach to

them, damnation, hell-fire, and not a cooling water, if they desert Ulysses 'Tis a fact, Republican fires are dying out in this county, and if no other wav can be devised to rekindle them the county must be put under martial'law and the disloyal, deserting Republicans must be put in chains until they repent and renew their faith.

Tom Browne must come eating no more meat, and preach to the prodigals. Morton must transport his bellowing carcar up here and tell these miscreants their

doom, if they do not return to their political fodder. If Morton fails they must send smiling Schuyler to win them back With a kiss. If Schuyler fails, why Trussler might call around with his old brass six-pounder, and by a cannonade, dispel this Greeley miasma that hangs so thick over the Republican camp of old. true and tried Vermillion. And if all these things fail,. can't Kimball swear, or B. Wilson Smith pray

This fall you will hear something "drap" up this way. J. R. H.

JUDGE HOAR, formerly Attorney General made a speech in Boston on Saturday in praise of Gen. Grant. He said that Grant had "labored for civil service reform, and had been baffled at every point by Congress." Will Judge Hoar kindly afford the public some explanation of the appointment of William T. Clarke as Postmaster at Galveston, Texas, with a salary of $4,000 a year, that shall be consistent with the zeal for civil service reform which he attributes to Grant Clark is one of the most rascally carpet-baggers in all the South. By a gross fraud he got a certificate of election to Congress and took his seat under this certificate and held it for months. Finally, however, even the Grant majority in the House of Representatives did not dare to keep him any longer, and lie was ousted from the place, and the man whom the people had elected got it. But Grant, knowing all these facts, has justappointed Clarke to a very important office. It wwld be interesting to hear from Judge Hoar on this subject

and

while he is about it he

might perhaps say something concerning Grant's passion for reform as exhibited in the retention of Brother-in-law Casey at New Orleans, of George M. Robeson in the Navy Department, and of Chorenning Creswell in the Postoffice Department.

Oil, Tliat I Were Beautiful! is the unspoken wish of thousands of women to whom nature has denied the charms of a pure, fresh transparent complexion. To gratify this wish HAGAN'S MAGNOLIA BALM was introduced. The cosmetics of the day had been pronounced poisonous by the most distinguished chemists, and it was also found that their ultimate effect was to wither the skin as well as to paralize the external nerves. The. ladies hailed with delight the adveht of a healthful, herbal and floral preparation capable of imparting to their faces, necks -and arms a porcelain smoothness and a tinge like that of the finest oriental pearl. They soon discovered that it was a "new thing Under the sun,'' incomparable and unapproachable. Unquestionably the MAGNOLIA BALM has been the great toilet success of the present century.

AG^AIN^ TIOTORIOUS

Our recent onslaught upon the Carpet trade caused a decided sensation." We have never seen a more complete success. Within 24 hours after we had announced our prices to the public, our Carpet room was crowded with customers, and each week our sales of these goods have continued to increase.^ .. ,, „.t-

It is the Hit Bird that Flutters!

This accounts for the fluttering among our competitors". They got their backs up at once and rushed into print to tell tbe 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."

AT THE HEAD OF THE CARPET TRADE!

WK PROPOSE TO KEKP THE LEAD!

We shall do it by offering to the public only well known brands of Carpets and by always representing our goods to be just what they are. As we shall keep DO makes of Carpets to which the manufacturers are ashamed to put their names, it will never become necessary for us to dub any of them "Fiuger Looms" or "Family Frauds."
