Democratic State Executive

Committee will meet at Indianapolis on the 6th of January. There and then will be decided the momentous question of when and where the State Convention shall ba held. Already has the political pot begun to simmer.

A CAREFUL inspection of the almanac reveals the fact that Christmas and New Years come next year on Monday. This arises from the fact that next year is the Centennial ef our American Republic, and the year has to have one more day to keep from bursting. So crowded is it with big events. It is a fortunate occurence for editora of daily papers. The management of the GAZETTE takes great pleasure at this early day in announcing that there will be no paper printed in this office on either Sunday or Monday. None but editors of daily papers, can tell how heaped up, pressed down, and running over is the eup of joy when twin holidays come.

HERE

is a paradox. It is not ex

actly a hydrostatic paradox, but we

{s"the paradox, hydrostatic, or crooked whisky as the reader pleases "Drunkenness eiists in the iniverse ratio to the size ot a town." Yti»t do we mean by this? Why nothing could be plainer or we believo truer. We mean that the larger the town is, the less drunkenness there is in it. During a week's stay in New York City the writer of these lines saw but two men noticeably under the influence of liquor, and even they only had about one sheet in the wind between them, and beside looked like they were nonresidents A man wouldn't have needed to be in a condition to see double or in that mellow State when he thinks all mankind eave himself is on a spree, to have seen over a score of men yesterday, here on the streets of Terre Haute in a beastly state of intoxication.

Why is this? Well one reason we are inclined to think is that in a regular full grown city, one of the real genuine sort, and not a compromise between a village and a metropolis, there are so many things to do, so many interesting things to see, and generally such a whirlwind of excitement that a person lias neither time for or occasion to make use of artificial stimulants. The truth is whisky, is .your beggars artifice for leveling distinctions, creating wealth, originating excitement, and making interest, wherethere is none, and shows poverty of resources all over its bloted countenance and ragged body. $

MEROM, INDIANA, Dec.' 25.—The scarlet fever is raging in Merom. Three weeks ago Miss. Ora Hays of Sullivan, sister to the editor of the Union, came to Merom on a visit and was taken with the terrible dlsease, and died one week ago this morning.

The Express correspondent,4•Grey," of Indianapolis, has "folded his little tent.

It is rumored that the noting ladies of Merom will give a leap year party next Friday evening.

POOR JOYCE.

IIB IS VtSITED BY HIS WIFE IS PRISON.

vTIiif 1114 Prcsidsftt JJefdse.1 to ParJon Him.

Special Dispatch to the Enquirer. St. Louis, Dec. 24.—Mrs. Joyce, the wife of Colonel Joyce, arrived in Jefforson City yesterday with her little girl and babe, and at once proceeded to the peniteuti«ry, where her husbann was confined. She had not seen Joyce since his incarnation, and the meeting between the two is described to have been moat affecting. During her recent Bevere trials Mrs. Joyce has sustained herself with very remarkable heroism.. While waiting in the reception room of the prison yesterday she endeavored to preserve her accustomed composure, bui when Joyce emerged from the adjoining apartmehtclad in his convict garb she at once gave way to her overburdoned feelings. After sho became composed, she hud a conversation of several hours with her husband. Joyce bore the meeting and the tears of his wife manfully, but when the prison authorities notified them that the interview must end, and she arose to say good byo,and told him she would return next day and bring the baby born since his im* prisonment to see him, he broke down and left her presenoe abruptly.

During the absence of Mr?. Joyce from her hotel, the United States Marshal, accompanied by District Attorney Bliss and a detective, proceeded to the room which had been assigned her and seized on her baggage. The trunks were then opened in the presence of Mrs. Joyce, and searched for United States bonds and other wealth of Joyce alleged to have been in bis wife's possession. Mrs. Joyce took the matter eood-humoredly, and watched the examination of her dresses and baby apparel with evident unconcern. Though her entire baggage was overhauled no bonds or papers could be found except a lew letters received by her from relatives and Iriends. Mrs. Joyce said that the seizure wa3 not unexpected to her. She had been advised several days be fore her departure from Green Like to pack her trunks so as to give as little inconvenience as possible to those who might want to overhaul them. She also remarked that since her arrival in Jefferson City she had been informed that a detective had shadowed her trunks all the way from Wisconsin, and she was sorry she had not known it as she would have delivered formal possession of her trunks and thus relieved herself of the trouble of looking after them. Though the alleged objeet of the search was for bonds and other property of Joyce, it is stated on pret ty good authority that the real purpose of the Government in making the levy was to possess itself of certain letters fromBabcock to Joyce, directlyacrimi nating the former in the Whisky Kinf frauds, which they had been advisee Mrs. Joyce had packed away in her trunk.

It is stated on good authority that in the early part of the month Joyce made a proposition to the Government to furnish all the testimony needed for the conviction of Babcock, if his pardon and a guarantee or future safety could be secured. It is understood that a proposition was in the form of a letter to the District Attorney, who, after consultation witb Henderson and oth: er counsel representing the Government, favored the pardoning of Joyce for his evidence not only against Bab-

members of the ring in St. Louis. Joyce's proposition was forwarded to Washington with their approval. Nothing had ever been heard from the FresftTerft on this until the Associated Press telegram of yesterday, to the effect that Attorney-General Pierrepont

said the President dul not favor the pardoning of Joyce. Marshall Crain, the notorious Williamson county (Ills.) outlaw, condamned to be hanged on the 21st of January, came very near effecting hi» escape yesterday morning from the jail at Marion, where he is confined. When bis keepers went to his cell and looked in he was nowhere to be found. It was found that he had cut a bole iu the ceiling of his ceil and was in the attic working fast in cutting the timber that held the shingles. In a few more minutos he would have been at liberty. He was properly secured and returned to his cell. A guard will.be kept around the jail till the day of execution.

DEATH ON THE BAIL. ]j

John Kane, a brakeman, was killed by the cars some time la»t night or early this morning. His remains were found scattered along the track, just«ast of the depot, for a distance of 400 feet. He was so terribly mangled and torn to pieces as to be unrecognizable, except, for aportion of his face Even the clothing was reduced to small bits.1 .'The remains were collected with a shqvel and broom. A remarkable circumstance is that his brother was killed by the cars some time ago in precisely the same spot. ...

BRISTOJT,

His F*feadi In Louisville Believe He ia Unapproachable. Louisville, Dec. 29i—The Chicago In-ter-Ocean's charges and insinuations relative to Secretary Bristow which were published Satnrday last, were reproduced in the Courier Journal today, and read very generally iu Loiiisviile. As it i.-3 well known here that Bristow is not, nor ever has been, connected witb, or connsel for, Louisville whisky firms, statements to the contrary, only recoive ridicule in Kentucky. It is alleged in the InterOcean's report that when Bristow visits Louisville he invariable makes his stay at the house of Mr. Jacob Weller, his brothor-i u-law and the brother of W. L. Weller, whisky dealer and rectifyer. Both the Wellers deny this and say while Bristow and his brother-in-law have always been friendly they are not at all intimate. Further, that Bristow always puts up at the Gait House, and votes in the ward in which all the residents of the hotel are required to do their voting. As far as Mr. W. L. Weller is concerned, ho says Mr. Bristow has never acted as counsel for him but at one time assisted in an active prosecution against his firm for an alleged technical violation of the revenue.

In reference to the whisky of J. A. Cunningham, seized at Peoria, and reserred to by the Inter-Ocean, the facts are that the whisky was sold by J. Marks & Cobb, oi this fity, to J. A. Cunninerham, after thu seizure. Bristow, while here, and bsiore he became Secretary of the Treasury, as a friendly act for Marks fc Cobb, wrote to the District Attorney at Chicago, requesting that he defer action until all tno facts were ascertained. Subsequently that wtisky and part.'ot the lot seized at Chicago were forfeited because there was n© defense, the parties interested in the defense haying been taken by surprise. A new trial was granted aud the case is still pending. J. A. Cunningham has refused the compromise offered, because they insist that the whisky wss all right. After Bristow became Secretary of the Treasury he was applied to by Cobb to order the release of whisky, but declined to give any order upon the subjoct, for the reason that he had been consulted by Cobb prior to becoming Secretary, unless the Commissioner of Internal Revenue and the Solicitor of the Treasury should recommend its release. These aro the facts as grthered from Cobb, a gentlemain of the highest standing here. He also says the agent of the Government investigated the whole case, and reported nothing wrong about the whisky. He has really complained that Bristow's sensitiveness as to official propriety has prevented him from doing what the facts wonld have justified him in doing. Mr. Cunningham says there was no exense for the seizure of his whisky that ex-Commis-sioner Douglass was apprised of the faots concerning it, and intimated that money would secure its restoration. ME*. Douglass says be has paid nothing and does not intend to use money^ to secure what properly belongs to him All the other whisky men named in the Inter-Ocean article as having employed Bristow, including the New-comb-Buchanan company, deny such. The Democrats hero are indignant at the Inter-Ocean's attempt to ally them with the scheme to aid the whisky ring and Babcock.

A WAR CLOUD.

Oar Micistcr I* 3ff«xleo Talks Plain ly ta tbo Orfttsera. Washington, Dec. 20,—From official correspondence it appears that a •!».» KVvator acU* ed permission of the Mexican Government for the regular troops of the United States to follow raiders across the border when in close pursuit, or permission to temporarily occupy certain points on the Mexican tide, where they ard accustomed to come across the river. The reply of the Mexican Secretary of Foreign Affairs was that the Executive had no authority to grant such a permission without the consent of Congress, and it would not be prudent to ask such consent, as the sentiment of the country would not approve it. Foster stated that he was authorized to give assurance that our Government had no design of acquiring the extension of the territory, but said that the acknowledgement of the Mexican GoV' ernment of its inability to restrain the lawlessness of its own citizens would afford the strongest possible argument to all advocates of the acquisition of the territory that there may be in the United States. Foster further said that the citizens of Texas must be protected, and if protection did not come from the Mexican Gov ernment, it must be .from ours.

I found the mo:ll ciuc possessed the mo^t wonderful virti H, efrecting cures of all diseases, original .g iroin bad blood or weakness of tbo sysit ra, a.s if by magic. At last the demand became so great that I iound myself called upoii to supply patients with medlcin in all p:ir« of the continent, and I was compelled to establish a Labratory for compounding? .d bottling the Root Bitters in large qualities. 1 was at first backward in present IK either mype

Since I first advertised tlsis wonderful medicine I have been crow with orders from druggists and eourtj dealers, and the tccreH of letters I rece^v from persous cured, prove the fact that remedy has ever" done so much good had such a success as the Boot Bitters.

For consumption, Asthma, Catarrh.Scrofula.Soiofu'ous Eruptions, Rheumatism. Heart Disease. Dizziness, Livei '^omplaint. Kid'.ey and Urinary

Their searching, healing properties penetrate every pui tlonof the human frame, soothing the lutgsand strengthlng the stomaeh, kidney^, and liver. For weakly, nervous young men suffering from loss of memory etc., caused from abuses in early life, u'.d to delicate females, theie Root Bitters ve especially recommended. No other merit cine will cure Scurvy, Salt Rheum, Boils, Tetter, Ringworm, Whita Swelling, Sire Eyes, Running of the Ears, Ulcers, Fever Sores,Cancerous Formations, Dropsy. E.'esipelous,Pimples,Flesh Worms, Pustules, Blotches and ail Sklu diseases, so quickly as the Root Bitter*. All Root Bitters lay ttie a seat the Root of the tree of disease, :y searching and purifying the blood whlcu will nourish and Invigorate every oi^an and part of the body and keep it in iepu until a ripe old age.
