Needs Investigation.
Mr. Reed, associate editor of the Washington Capital, the man whom bully brother-iu-law Louis Dent caned the other day, has received the following letter from New York city "I have just been reading about. the brutal assault made on you by one of the nnmflroils Dent family. J. H. Withey* one of the victims of the DenW, resides in this county. I know him welj. Last May he told me about the Dents getting money out of him, substantially as set forth in the Sun. I saw Mr. Withey a few days ago. He told me that he bad.six letters from Louis Dent, written ,w.bi(le negotiations were going on concerning his appointment as Commissioner tcf Peru, (fee. That he had been offered $8,000 for the letters, for the purpose of having thdm destroyed. That he had refused to deliver them up for that air ount. He also stated that he had sixty letters from Perrand relating to, the same business, and alsOcpncerning the sale of ten monitors to Secor for $750,000, which Secor at once sold to Peru for $2,000,000. I believe Mr. Withey to be a truthful man, and what he stated •was in the presence of a man residing in this place. The brokerage business of the Dent family ought to be investigated, for there is no doubt but that the President has full knowledge of their business.! If you wish any further particulars about the matter I will furnish them."
We should think that all the doings of this irrepressible dynasty would yield abundantly in fraudulent and disre ble transactions, if investigateiMoy impartial committees. Yet th|PS£merioan people are asked to ret&UI them in power.
MR. GRANT'S ardent frMnd, Mr. Blanton Duncan, in an edij^fiial in the Irue Democrat, of Lojlifville, yesterday, knowingly assertaujjfat he has been prepared for just sjf&r a letter as that given elsewhere in bpTs columns, from the very modest gentl&nan, Mr. Charles O'Conor. Of course, warat else could he be prepared for, whaAMr. O'C. ..had previously so perempflwily signified his determination not t^jfave the empty honor conferred rim. But then Mr Duncan hoists lame at' the head of the columns of ie Democrat, and hopefully adds that Mr. O'Conor will surely not refuse the [position of the Presidency if elected.
Thus, in his zeal to re-elect Mr. Grant, and get that $52,000, and doubtless other considerations of value from the Administration, does this fellow persist in presenting to the readers of the Democrat, for the Presidency, a man who by letter and word of mouth, most emphatically declines.
HENRY WILSON, who has honestly won the title of "the complete letter writer,"explains that his last explanation to the effect that ho never was a Know Nothing was unauthorized. He now says that he never denied that he was a Know Nothiug. This was while he could only get office In Massachusetts by being a K. N. Now that he would be glad to be Vice President of the United States, and kuowing th&t he cannot be as a Know Nothing, he renounces the faith of his former years and takes up his position on the opposite side.
Yet Hora«e Greeley is an old turn-coat and Mr. Wilson is a consistent politician, according to Mr. Grant's organs.
SOME of our exchanges complain because the Associated Press is partial to the Administration. The Associated Press is a monied monopoly, and it is to its interest to court favor of the Grant dynasty. Therefore they place Radical editors and postmasters in positions as agents. For instance, such is the case in Tetfre Haute, Indianapolis, Fort Wayrae, Evansville, and in fact about all the pl&ces we CI\H think of at prescut.
MB. C. J. HINE, who has long beeni a faithful and efficient reporter of the Times, made a Greeley speech the other night, in which he said that, personally, he could not endorse the political position of that paper. Immediately he was notified that he was discharged. The Times says it wasn't done because he dp-, clared. for Greeley, jand it is .probable thkt the reason was what Mr. Storey considered a breach of reportorial discipline.— Chicago Ma.il.

SENATOR WILSON EXPLAINS.'
fie Letter totliejGerinans Unauthorized byilliin It was' Written under a Misnpprahensioit—Hc Never Pretended to Denyftharlle was a Know-Nolhing. BOSTON, Sept. O.-^-The caucuses of the Liberal Republicans and Democrats have mauy of them been held to select delegates to attend the State Conventions at Worcester, on Wednesday next. Several were held this evening. The indications are that both conventions will be largely attended.
Senator Wilson made a speech, on Saturday evening, at Cochituate, in which he paid some attention to his recent German letter. The German friend referred to in the speech is Herman Askenasy. The Senator said that a few days before he wrote his letter branding the brutal speech attributed to him as a fabrication, a German gentleman had called his attention to that speech and to others of a kindred nature. He had denied to him that he had ever written or uttered those sentiments, and sent him several speeches to show that he held
views
precisely opposite, and these
speeches clearly revealed the fact of his association, for a brief time, with the Know-Nothing organization. The Senator had furnished copies of those speeches to the gentleman who made extracts from them which he had published, and several which he had in his possession.
Receiving, a day or two before he went to Maine, a German paper marked, and a letter from some German gentleman, Mr. Wilson, on meeting his German friend in the street, had given him the letter and the paper, together with a copy of the Tribnne of 1860, in which was an article branding as a forgery the speech which had now been imputed to him, and asked that gentleman to send the extracts from his speeches then in the gentleman's possession to the Germans elsewhere, as evidence of the real opinions he entertained, and to prepare and send to them an extract from the Tribune proving the speech above referred to to have been a forgery twelve jears ago. These extracts, which he requested his German friend to send to the writers of the letter, clearly showed his opinions and revealed his connection with the movement. After quoting the speeches, Mr. Wilson said his German friend readily promised to send these extracts, and did so, but he wrote a letter and signed Mr. Wilson's name to it, together with his own initials. The Senator said he did not have the slightest idea that his friend would write a letter of any kind and use his (Wilson's) name. The man did not live that he would trust to write a letter for him on public affairs, and send it without his seeing and reading it. He would certainly be guilty of unpardonable indiscretion to do so at this time.'
The letter was wholly manufactured, and written and peat without his knowledge, &nd much to his regret. When he read it he had no idea whatever that it ^as written by the gentleman whom he had requested to send extracts from bis speeches to Germans in other
Eeforeof
arts the country. It was some time he knew that his friend had written it. He was sure that his friend had intended no wrong to himself or to any one else, or to deceive anybody, but had made a great mistake, a blunder. Mr. Wilson said that he regretted that some Republican journals, in attempting to trace the authorship of this letter, had reflected upon a gentleman who had written a very sharp letter upon the a# sumption that he (Mr. Watson) wasupie author of the letter referred to. Mowever others might treat him, tt& tUo. not wish to retaliate. He hadpSttirer suffer wrong tban be the occwion of doing an injustice to others, no^Satter how unjust they had been to hUnT.
HERE is a speech was delivered on, 1861
Twiah fn anyfhnf traitorous though it may bd^ltpWrnl here to oppose the policy of waw with -the South now, hereafter, orever* That war is a war against brethren,' a war against your counen, a war against those united- with by all the ties of consanguinity, by the memories and traditions of the ijst, by everything that can tend to
Itrengthen, and cement and bind the pie of the North to the Sffrth. That the war you are goaded to initiate under a cry calculated to influence the weak and ignorant, of No baeking down the Constitution must be preserved, and the laws must be enforced
It is enough that' now I am prepared to take the responsibility of saying I am 'resolved to resist it here and resist it everywhere. 'And if that is treason, make the most of it.' "If, after all negotiations, we find we have reached that point we of the North can no longer say to our brethren of the South, nor the South to the North, in the language of Ruth to Naomi, 'Whither thou goest I will go, and where thou lodgest I will lodge thy people shall be my people, and thy God my God.' If, I repeat, we have reached that point in our history, even then I would say, 'Spare the blood of my brethren let us part in peace peaceably dissolve this confederacy and no part of the responsibility shall rest on us."
Were the author of that a Greeley Republican it would be remembered against him. He goes to far greater length than ever did Mr. Greeley—who is denounced right and left as an original secessionist —which is a dishonest charge, and yet the author is no less a person than the Hon. Lyman Tremaine, candidate for Congress-at-large for New York, on the Grant State ticket, and enthusiastic in his labors for the re-election of Grant. How can Republicans consistently support so outrageous a secessionist?
WE have read with infinite amusement a most tremendous article on Blanton Duncan's Convention printed on the 4th inst. in the Rockport (Ind.) Republican. "This little cloud"—such is the enthusiastic prediction of the Republican—"this little cloud, no larger than a man's hand six weeks ago, is swelling to gigantic proportions"—anil so, in a sense, did the frog just before he exploded. Then we are told: "The Greeleyites are looking anxiously around for some more money to buy up the Louisville delegates." "But," proudly declares the Indiana editor, "the Democratic delegates that will attend the Louisville Convention are made of sterner stuff, and $50,000 wouldn't tempt many of these Straight-out Democrats to vote for Mr. Greeley." We should like to know how many it would tempt but alas! we shall never know now. The drollery of it is to find this unfortunate rural newspaper man the victim of Blanton Duncan's wily brags. We notice thisv instance of misplaced confidence because it is such a rare one. As a gen eral rule, to the honor of the press be it said, B. D. hasn't been able to humbug the newspapers. The Grant sheets have been civil, for an exceedingly good reason but we do not recall a single Democratic journal of any standing that has been taken ih by Blantou's blandishments.—New York Tribune.
Correspondence New York Herald.
A Level-headed Indiana Farmer. Talking with an honest farmer, also a Republican, he said, "It don't make any difference to the likes of me who is elected. It don't bring a dollar into my poeket but it looks to me like we have had a drinking man and a run-about long enough the President's office. It looks to me like a sober man, that has always attended to his own businetss, would make a better President, and I mean' to vote for Greeley. These politicians don't care-for the likes of me, only forthe vote. I was kind of tickled to get a document ftbm bur Congressman, and made a fool*
ish show of opening it, when lo it was Mn the Dutch language. That's all the MOD. M. GVknew about me." "Are there any other Republicans in this locality Who will vote for Greeley ?"j "There is only one in sight, but over the creek I know of seven that will vote for Hendricks, and I reckon they'll go for
Greeley." Alike result attended observations in other neighborhoods, and there is not the shadbw of a doubt that Indiana will go Democratic by a large majority in October, and by overwhelming numbers in November.
Cambridge Against the World. Prof. Agassiz went singlehanded to Cambridge, twenty-five years ago, to teach natural history. There then was not a single specimen in the institution wherewith to illustrate the study. By and by a museum was inaugurated, and the means were gradually forthcoming, until now, within a period of fourteen years, it stands without a parallel in the world. This assertion, the professor says, might sound like exaggeration, but was no less true. The museums of the Old World had been growing through centuries but science had made such progress that they were superannuated, and could not be rejuvenated. The museum at Cambridge was started with the ideas of to-day, and its collection of specimens bore upon the science of the present time.
WHEREVER Senator Schurz goes, a perfect ovation greets the great German orator. At Cleveland, last Saturday night, 20,000 people turned out to honor him with their presence, and hear his eloquent words in behalf of the cause of the people. Senator Schurz is doing mighty work for Liberalism.—Chicago Mail (Independent.)

A NEW EPOC HON THE TRADE!
Retirement from the Retail Dry Goods Business
OF ONE OF THE
OLDEST AND LARGEST HOUSES IN THE CITY!
We, in common with most of our citizens, have recently been surprised by the decision of Messrs. Tuell, Ripley & Deming to go out of the retail trade in order to engage exclusively in the wholes&le dry goods business. The retirement from 'he retail trade of this old-established and successful Arm
Will Place New Responsibilities Upon (Js.
We accept them cheerfully. This community have always found us ready to extend our business and to add new attractions to our establishment as rapidly as the necessities of the town have required. In fact, we have always felt disposed to keep in advance of the actual requirements of the situation, for we are not of the number of those "doubting Thomases" whq prognosticate a snail's pace growth for our city. We believe in Terre Haute and in her destiny. We place no bounds for her future growth and greatness. Her enterprise is marvelous, her opportunities unmeasured. So if we are ahead of her actual requirements to-day, we know that we will not be to- morrow.' JpVe have some grand projects in our head, to be worked oat among you in the-frfrore. Every month of every year we shall seek to add something to thejp»ttractiveness and completeness of our establishment, until we shall be abj^cto present t« our citizens the most inviting, extensive and thorough dry goods store to be found in the State.
As Messrs. Tuell, Ripley & Deming have decided to retire from the retail trade, we especially invite any of their former customers to make their purchases of us in the future, promising them pleasant and honorable treatment, and the lowest prices.
