SANKEY

THE Frankfort Yeoman tells this "Once upon a time a young Kentucky physician, who had been regularly educated for his profession, was called to the bedside of a patient that he had been attending with his best care for some time, hut who obstinately grew worse and worse, until now his end seemed very near. 'Doctor,' said the sick man, 'lam dying—I am certain I am dying, and I believe you have killed me.' The doctor seemed to think very earnestly for a moment or two, and then quite gravely aid seriously replied 'Yes, I see that you aredying and,on reflection,I believe that you are right—I believe that I have killed you but here I take my oath that, if God will forgive me for unintentionally murdering you, I will never murder another—I will never give another dose of physic professionally as long as I live.'. And he kept his oath he at once quit medicine entirely turned his attention to the study of law obtained a license in due course, and after a few years' successful practice, became one of the most eminent circuit judges of that day in Kentucky—now, nearly forty years ago."

A FEW women have been holding a Convention at San Francisco. They originated the "Woman Suffrage Party of the Pacific Coast," and adopted, amid a mighty waving of pretty parasols and hem-stitched handkerchiefs, a platform. The fifth and sixth planks in it are as follows:

Fifth. All persons and parties who oppose these principles shall be treated as our political enemies^ from whom we will withhold our influence in politics and our patronage in business.

Sixth. We will work for the election ol any worthy candidate of whatever party who will work with us, and wo will vigorously oppose any candidate of either or any party who is opposed to those principles.

Until political women get over their ideas about carrying politics into business, and about receiving Satan himself

a brother and Mrs. Woodhull as a sister, provided he and she are "sound on the main question," they will sigh in vain for the ballot they so much desire to use. Immediately after the adoption of this farrago, a gentleman declined to address the Convention, whereupon the same "lady" who drew a pistol on another man because he wished her to stop yelling, said that this one was a "flunkey." The elevating effect of this stamp of women ou our politics can scarcely be underestimated.

We hope the gentleman who so ably drew up the resolution in the Philadelphia Convention in favor of "woman's suffrage," will give some attention to this fighting sister in California. If he cannot convince her by clear logic that she ought not to act "thusly," he can calm her rage by repeating to her a few sentences from his great Chicago oratorical oration. If that will not "soothe the savage beast," nothing will.

TUESDAY, JULY 2, 1872.

THE indirect claims set up and finally abandoned by our far-sighted diplomats at Washington are: 1. Loss in the transfer of American commercial marine to the Rritish flag. 2. Enhanced payments of insurance. 3. Prolongation of the war and the addition of a large sum to the cost thereof.

Davis' Bail.

Perhaps there is hardly anything more misunderstood than the circumstances which surrounded Jeff. Davis at the time Mr. Greeley became his bail. Indeed, some of the Administration press are trying to prejudice the public mind against Mr. Greeloy for this very act. A few days ago a gentleman referred to it in the presence of Mr. G., and he stated the whole case in the following succinct manner "They abused me roundly about that, and never gave me credit for the real good service did them in that matter. They had Davis, and yet they could do nothing with him. They couldn't risk a trial they ouldii't afford to keep the prisoner, and I came-in and took them out of their scrape. They ought to have thanked me for helping them out of their trouble, but they didn't."

This embraces all the surrounding circumstances in a nutshell, and should Horace Greeley be censured for that?

As one leading Republican after another joins the Liberal

ranks,

the party of prej

plunder,

and hate devotes

itself to proving that this particular man has been everything that was bad. Trumbull, Palmer, Koerner, Sumner, Bird, Greeley, Tipton, Julian, Clay, Schurz, and many others, have all been bitterly denounced. It is painful to think of, what a consumate set of scoundrels have hitherto led the Republican party. That organization is to be congratulated on having freed itself from such men, and having come under the leadership of such pure patriots as Cameron, and Butler, and Grant, and Clayton, and Ca^ey, and Leet, and Pomeroy, and the long line of kindred souls.

THE Washington correspondent of the Cincinnati Enquirer says: "The Sunday Chronicle, an Administration paper, which usually supports Grant and his Cabinet at all hazards and under all circumstances, is profoundly disgusted with the result of the negotiations at Geneva. In its last issue it says editorially: "England has carried her point in the Geneva Conference, and compelled Secretary Fish to withdraw his claim for consequential damages. Mr. Fish may be all right on the first three-quarters, but of no account on the home stretch."

What does all this mean? The Chronicle is now edited by Senator Harlain. Is it possible the ex-Senator from Iowa is going back on the President. Rats always desert a sihking ship.

Failure No. 2.

We commiserate with our old political associates at their second failure to get an audience at their new wigwam. You cannot get up a breeze, gentlemen. The people will not rally. They will not huzza for a Grant present-taker. They wont throw up their hats for the smoker of Long Branch. They will not enthuse for the nepotent of the White House, and they wont be led further by Federal officeholders. There is no enthusiasm for Gen. Grant in 1872. As a civilian he has been tried, and the people want bis services in that partisular, no more forever.

Bring out your drums—blow your hugags—beat your tamborines, and make a noise generally, but the people will not come, and your only excuse will again be—that the speaker did not come.

THE Chicago Tribune has the candor and trood taste heartily to condemn what we were amiable in calling the coarseness of a recently-published "Life of Lincoln." That passion for the truthful in biography which leads a writer to declare to all men those things which during life were the dearest reserves of his subject, can scarcely be considered a virtue. It is rather a sensational impertinence, and deserves much the same sort of contempt which is accorded to the petty gossip of a Mercy Pecksniff. In every 'man's life there are experiences, hopes, and sorrows, which should be sacred always—things with which a curious world has nothing to do, and over which the grave should close in absolute oblivium. The intimate and varying phases of his religious belief and the story of an unhappy love are assuredly among these things. They do not aid our judgment of a political and intellectual career, and to chronicle them is an offense not only against courtesy but against decency. It is an offense which is becoming too common in this country, and which grows not more endurable but more disgusting by constant repetition. Mr. Lincoln's latest biographer does his best to prove that the man the Republic delighted to honor was a weak, vulgar, love-sick pagan. 'It is to be hoped that his success in this noble effort will serve as a scare-crow to other writers of his taste and ambition.—N. Y. Tribune.

Reply to "Tom. Tickle."

The Indiana State Normal School is a great public interest. Believing I had a right as a citizen to express an opinion in relation to it I did so. But a scribbler, signing himself "Tom Tickle," who comes from the land where they burned witches and hung Quakers, in a communication in the GAZETTE of yesterday, by low personalities and threats, attempts to put his self-enacted gag law upon Bono. But that shall not prevent his utterances of honest convictions.

This scribbler claiming the euphonious sobriquet, "Tom Tickle," imagines himself the vindicator of a distracted public, and authorized to write for "our community" and "the informed" seems to be "indignant," and assumes that all the rest are, because of Bono's communication of last Thursday, in the GAZETTE. Tnis appears very strange, aud excites the inquiry, where did "Tom" get his information Did he call a town meeting aii(Jget an expression, or did he conceit that he was "all?" B. has heard many of "the informed" of "our community" pronounce their compliments upon and endorse the views of his critique. T. T. must certainly give ex-parte testimony, and has constituted himself the grand arbiter and oracular for "our community."

And when he assumes that B. sought to cripple the present usefulness, and to destroy the future good prospects, of the Normal School, I pronounce him guilty of wilful falsehood, and with the design of diverting attention from the subject of discussion. That he may learn his character and doom, I refer him to Rev. 21, and the last part of verse 8th. There is uot one word in B's. communication calculated or designed to injure the institution, it is a plea for it and is designed to promote its interests and usefulness. And for the truth of this I refer the reader to said article.

Bono is devoted to the Normal School, and with every other good citizen, feeis proud of it as a State institution but he is uot such a devotee to it as to be blind to its want of success, and he is not willing to see so grand an institution, with such a monumental edifice, with such an eligible city locatiou, and with such an immense monied investment a comparative failure because of the want of efficiency in him who should inspire enthusiasm throughout the State in its behalf. And when as a friend of the institution, a patron of education, and one in full sympathy with Indiana, I see the cause of failure, I feel at liberty to make it public.

Again, when T. T. assumes that B's article was to gratify "some personal pique," while I deny it, I ask who made him so omnisious? Poor creature, he has never learned the heathen maxim, "Know thyself," and seems to belong to those of whom Seneca tells "That had a strange infirmity in their eyes, that whatever way they turned, they encountered the visible moving image of themselves," of which he gives this version "It proceeds from the weakness of the visive faculty, that, for want of spirits derived from the brain, cannot penetrate through the transparent air, to see objects but every part of the air is a reflecting glass of themselves." Who told Seneca of T. T. In relation to the Normal School, Bono has only to reassert what he has written befora as true and as founded upon facts aud figures, capable of positive proof, the "ipsi dixet" of Tom T. to the contrary notwithstanding and if what he writes in yesterday's GAZETTE of the Normal School at Lebanon be true, that is only a fact in proof of Bono's correctness, instead of an argument against his positions.

I have nothing but compliments to offer upou the professors, lady teachers, and graduates, the examinations of the classes, and performances of the graduates were very creditable, only there should have been 25 or more graduates instead of five, and if the institution was presided over with efficiency, there would have been. Illinois Normal graduated thirty-nine at the late commencement.

Bono's criticism in the GAZETTE of Thursday, was a well-toned and honorable one designed to treat no one with disrespect and he leaves it to unprejudiced minds to determine but Tom. T., in replying, descends to personal insult, and takes a course such as dwarfed intellects and pusillanimous minds resort to. His reply is low demagogism.

This "Tom. Tickle" writes to tickle some one either Bono or "the informed but upon an acquaintance with the diagnosis of his case, I give it as my opinion, whatever the doctors may say, he is "troubled with wind," and tickling will not do forsoserious acomplaiut. I therefore, as one upon whom the responsibility falls, prescribe aud admiuister blistering.

Tom is that specimen of the genus homo, who is so officious, aud almost assumes the prerogatives of chief manager and master of ceremonies on all public occasions at the-Normal the man that exhibits, to ute his own elegant language, so much "fuss and feathers." I wonder as has been asked if he don't think he owns the school? We judge men by their actions.

He is the same exponent of the actions of the Board of Trustees, who reports them as advising the President of the faculty to "blow more" and thus keep up the school. And "Felix" like, having a "convenient season," and as the President was not blowing enough, and may be thinking he could not without "injury to his own health," began blowing for him, and be weut about it and has been blowingeversince. He blows like an old haud at it. He is experienced, for oh such a blow Truly he is "troubled with wind," he needs the blister.

In his communication of yesterday he says, "There are men possessed of very little souls, who, with microscopic vision, look only to small and comparatively trifling things. They see always the moles in the eyes of their betters. Such people are always cut and dried for a fuss, and as they can't have matters to suit them, must continue to live in a quarrel."

Truly, when I read the above, I thought "Tom" had given the public a paragraph from his own autobiography, which he likely is writing, for so distinguished a character must not be allowed to pass into oblivion.

I have no doubt the above quotation is true, for be says so, he is one of them, and "Bono" knows

one who has a

better right to know than he, and that appears to be the opinion of him, by "the informed," and from his history in Terre Haute and the many fusses in which he gets involved, he would need to be "cut and dried," for if he is not, his opponents do it for him. It is a great pity fhe selfimportant and assuming youth has not learned of St. Paul to "study to be quiet, and do mind youf own business.

I have only to say, so far as "Tom Tickle's" allusion to Darwinism is con-

cetned, judging from his personnel, from ex-Major General Baciks, and Hon. Ste^.

motives of interest he is in sympathy with that theory, and all he needs is the red coat, shining belt and his chatter box, then the boys will run. Barnum need not bring alive monkey to exhibit, nor Darwin advocate his theory in Terre Haute—the matter is settled.

And now I am done with T. T., unless lie gives me occasion to place him upon my thumb-nails, that I may crack him.

CHICAGO, July 2.—The billiard match last night between Frank Parker and Henry Rhines was one of the most disgraceful ever played in Chicago. There were wrangling and cheating ou one side and a want of confidence on the other. Parker won by a score of 500 to 359.

The enforcement of the new liquor law yesterday made some excitement among dealers in getting their permits, and the City Hall was crowded with applicants. As bonds of persons wholly unknown to the authorities were frequently taken there was little difficulty in procuring licenses, and but few.saloons closed. About 150 licenses" were issued yesterday. The law seems to work' well through the State thus far.

NEW YORK, July 2.—The great struggle for the supremacy of American turf, between Harry Bassett and Longfellow, is to be decided on the Monmouth caurse this afternoon. Three races are anticipated to-day, and this important contest will probably not be run before 3 o'clock P. M., Both horses are in excellent condition, and their respective owners are equally confident of victory. There.are but two horses entered for the race besides Basset and Longfellow. It is thought there will be only two other starters, it beiug announced that Harper's Littleton aud McDonald's Abdel Kader, will also contend in the great struggle for the Monmouth Cup, thus leaving Harper's and McDonald's stables as the only contestants for the great race of the season. The pool selling, last night, averaged 100 to 25 in favor of Bassett. It is estimated the race will be witnessed by over 100,000 spectators.

The difficulty between the Erie Railway aud Jay Gould has at length culminated in legal proceedings being instituted against the latter, and yesterday a voluminous complaint was served on Gould's counsel by the lawyers for the Erie Railway. Since the new management of the Erie Company was inaugurated, the Company's attorneys, assisted by President Dix and the Board of Directors, have been dilligently overhauling the books of the old Board, and they have found what they consider sufficient proofs of fraud to sustain action for damages against Jay Gould, former President, and have accordingly sued him in the court of Common Pleas, claiming damages to the amount of ten million dollars. The affidavits in the case are very leugthy, and allege that Gould fraudulently secured the election of Directors favorable to his scheme, and then proceeded by their collusion and with their aid to swindle the corporation out. of vast sums of mouey. Complainants say they can prove he has appropriated to his o\Vu use the legitimate earnings of the road, and made them means by which to perpetrate Jris power. It is expected that rich developments will be made when the case is fairly before the courts, and many prominent men in the city are believed to be implicated or indirectly connected iu the scheme to defraud the company.

Thursday being the anniversary of the Independence of the United States, it will be celebrated as a general holiday. All places of business will be closed throughout the day, and also the Stock, Gold, Produce aud other exchanges in the city.

Appropriations have been made by the Common Council for the celebration of the day, and in all of the city parks there will be a grand display of fireworks.

NEW YORK, July 2.—The HEAT to-day is terrible. This has been the hottest day of the season. The thermometer at 10 A. M. marked ninety-five in the shade and is still rising. The shady side of the street is eagerly sought by pedestriaus. Numerous cases of sun-stroke have been reported.

Stokes' trial to-day was largely attended. Dr. D. J. White was examined. He was Fisk's private physician tuid helped to probe for the ball after the shooting, and attended the post-mortem examination. He testified regarding the position of the ball. Witness was subjected to a long cross-examination regarding the post-mortem examination.

Wilson, near Brownsville, yesterday, and then put the pistol to his own. head and fired, the ball lodging iu his brain, where it remained five hours before he died. The cause of the quarrel, was an old horse, valued at a hundred, and forty dollars.
