LAFAYETTE liad a Holly Water Works

luA'i: cheerfully gi^'e wife heaters the Jfjelit of our circulation. I IEN IIY BAKEII, Indianapolis, passes in review this

Coining.

'4^ THE Sheriff of Tippecanoe counlv has "*fevied on the seal of the city of Lafayette "%o satisfy a judgment in favor of a citiz.en for damages to his property.

THE St. Louis I)a,noerat makes the cheering announcement .hat the I'ep'.iblicans of .Missouri aie again a united part y.

IT IS believed that the chances of obtaining soft water by the well from which Evansville is to be supplied, by the Holly Water Works, now being constructed, are very slim.

AN Kvansville paper learns that DANIEL IlAYFoun, editor of the Rockport Jown.al was severely hurt, by his team attempting to run away from him, a few days ago.

THE Lafayette Journal regards the JfcWfplness with which the McGarrahan claim has been sent to grass in C'ongre-s as a hopeful indication that other barefaced scoundrelisms will go to grass, too.

CiJit telegraphic editor leinarks that Kvansville now ranks with Memphis* in the horrible sensation line. Whenever he sees either of those places mentioned in the reports, he looks out for a regulur blood-curdler,and is pretty sure to find it.

1 HE condition of three subjects of recent shooting and stabbing affrays is thus reported in an Evansville paper:

Oilman, Haub and Mrs. Ilaub were not only living yesterday evening, but all of them were reported to be getting better.

KVANSVILLE now enjoys a real, live United States Court, and we are glad of it for it was needed there long before it was established. We congratulate Judge GitESHAM, District Attorney BROWNE, Clerk IIOWLAND and Marshal SPOONEII on having their pen-portraits neatly l^taken by the indefatigable local of the

Evansville Journal.

KVANSVILLE is biennially afflicted by legislative tinkering with its charter. Parlies and rings are ready at every session of the General Assembly, to lobby through amendments to that muchamended instrument, whereby private or partisan interests are advanced at the expense of the public weal. Now there is an easy and speedy way to avoid all this: (Jive up the charter, patched as it is until little of the original is left, and come under the ample protection of the Act for the Incorporation of Cities, which constitutes the excellent charter of all the other cities in the State.

"THE IIoo FAMILY" occupies a, very

ininent position in some of the Easleni'papers. This euphonious appellation is used (o designate those male bipeds who occupy seats in cars, ferry boats, etc., I yviiile women are kept standing. We suppose that a young and healthy woman who occupies a seat, to the exclusion of •fl" an old and feeble man, may be regarded as belonging to the female portion of "The Ilog Family." -There is, doubtless, in all places some ack of politeness on the part of the masuline portion of the community towards '•'the gentler sex but truth impels the acknowledgement that there is a still greater lack of appreciation and reciprocity manifested by the claimants and recipients of the courtesy which a gentleman instinctively bestows upon woman.

THE Journal, at Terre Hau'-e, thinks •it ''foily" to attach the name of" "Evansville" to the new railroad frcm that city to Newport. Herein we differ our cotemporary.—JEvanwillc Courier.

We respectfully suggest that if Evansville wants to stand Godfather to the road from Terre Haute to Danville, (the line above referred to,) that ambitious little tv of the "Pocket" should be willing to something in aid of its construction, attach the name of Evansville to a in which but one of her citizens has any pecuniary interest, and he only one thousand »llars, and especially to do so when the road does not approach Evansville nearer than a hundred and nine miles, looks just a little absurd.

THE Pall Mail Gazelle mentions, among the strange events of the wonderful year of 1870, the fact that the Sultan offered a purse of twenty thousand franc? to ihe I'ope, and that the latter accepted the offer The English jonnial believes this display of amity is a more curious phenomenon than seeing (i.iiiiBALW and CfJAI.HI'i'E, commander oi lie Papal Zouave-, fight under ihe same banner.

A JJI-IMTCH irom Richmond, this State, says that the trial of Mrr. Lou. SitAV.\ charged with the shooting of -J. W. I'ti roRt, after three days' dui ttion, wua concluded on .Satunlay evening. The jury received the charge about nine or ten o'clock, and after an ah-enee of Fome two hours re'.tii ned wii a verdict of not guilty, upon the gto r.d.-: set up by the df.ei.se, viz: insanity and coercion.

THE reckless waste of time, by the Legislature1, elicits a mild lecture from the fku'inri \Y vetilme to say that there isn't member in that Assembly who would keep a ''hired man" in his employ for a week, who scved him a= unfaithfully as that body serves the State. The most lamentable fact of the present age, in hi- country, is that pub lie servants, chosen to do specific work,

THE Philadelphia Pro* thinks that few careful obsctvcis of French history since the close of the eighlcen'h century will T• IkE ctcep'ions to President WOOT.SEY, in hi» ictuark to the ale senior class upon the fall of Pari-, that the nation was receiving Divine retribution for its gto sennnality and vice. Great, indeed, has been its ci ime. Fearlul has been '.lie cx?.cted atonement. In the new era of the country as a republic, for -.re believe s-i'-h a government will sooner or later come, not only will politics be regenerated, but morals, I he fundamental element of politic! in the old Grecian sense of the term, will be lifted up, and the new France .shall not be wiihout a God.

EVERY reader of the daily press will remember that great claims wei made on behalf of Ex-Secretary -r "V the management of the Indian Bureau under his superintendence of the Interior Department, and his letter of resignation was quoted as showing that the President would not sustain him in the "reforms" he had made in that bureau. The affaits of the Indian Office are undergoing investigation before the Committee on Appropriations, and a Washington correspondent, speaking of the results, says: "While there does not appear to be any posil: 3 evidence that Commissioner PARKUK has been engaged in corrupt practices, there is abundant, testimony showing such bad management of his office thai «)!lar h:-ve piolitc-d largely by

it. Ex Secretary Cox's evidence iros rather unfarnrnb'c lo the Indian Burcav, instead of the reverse, as stated.'

"THE number of tippling houses in Terre Ilaute exceeds all other business places."

The above item, which we clip from the "miscellaneous" column of a New York paper, is as false as it is injurious to the good name of our city. Nothing could b^ farther from the truth than the idea that Terre Haute is noted for intemperance in the use of liquors While there is much more drinking here than the good of society requires, yet we sincerely believe there is absolutely less, in proportion to our population, than in any other city of which we have any knowledge. This is, pre-eminently, a moral— not a religious community- I'or causes which we will not now undertake lo discuss, the church-going portion of our people is rather below the average, as compared with other places hut he who concludes that this indicates an exceptionally vicious people, reasons from wrong premises. Our statistics of crime and pauperism, and our mortuary records, challenge comparison with those of any other locality in the United State

SENATOR MOUTON is unhappy unless he keeps himself befoiethe country.— Ind. Sentinel.

Si'EAKtNG of the (so called) Evansville, Terre Ilaute & Chicago Railroad, the Evansville Courier very imprudently says

If it were not for the fact that Evansville is lobe atone end of it, the road would be of no account whatever. Terre Haute is nothing but a fiist-clasa way station tin) way it claims sevc-, railroads, yet is the terminus of none. J.'erre Ilaute & Danville road indeed! As Bishop Soott was wont to say, Pshaw! get out!"

That is quite too absurd to require an answer, and we reproduce it only to show the citizens of Terre Ilante how extremely grateful Evansville is for many substantial favors shown her in tlie cons' tic! ion and management of railroads. What those favors have been, and arc is well known to our citizens, and ought to be known to ihe Couri-r. For instance, I lie Conner should know thai one citizen of Terre Haute has controlled, and still connols, lie election of the officers of the only road that touches Kvansville, and that this power has been exercised in a spirit of gieat and unusual friendliness towards that city. We might name other similar facts, but have said enough to convince the Cma kr that such remarks as we have quoted from its columns are more apt to hurt Evansville than Terre

Change in the Divorce Law. Antony the many articles recently written on this important subject, we have seen nothing more readable than the following from the Indianapolis Sacs:

Our divorce law has made the Slate unpleasantly notorious all over the civilized world. Wc are taunted with it bv English papers as ohensivelv, if not as frequently as by our own. The French used to satcri/.e it slyly, til

the Germans

gave them something more roric-t:.-'- io do than laugh at o'her people. Even the Italians have occasionally paraded, in some of the rude "broadsides" that one sees I hickly sown about the railway station in Floience, a. c./.iple made tree by the laws of Indiana. We have not the least doubt that tourists haveread of the a. while munching sandwiches on a broke capi al of ihe Parthenon or eating "mandarines" in the Forum of Pompeii. Such renown as this a State can afford !o lose. She can aflord, in fact, to give something to get rid of it and when all that :-he needs to give is a few minutes' attention of her Lcgir-latnre, we are strongly in hope that she will be rid ol it soon. The Senate has already done its share to this end, and if the liouse will concur, the "hogo" that has smelt from the Waba-h to the Seine and the Sarno, will fade into scentless indifference. The bill which was passed by -'SO lo 3, on Thu -day afternoon, makes two changes which af'er the whole form and operation ol the law. One of these removes the discretion of the Court as to the sullicienc.y for divorce of other causes than tho=e ,-et forth in the law a necessary restriction, so long as Judges^ lack something of being either omniscient or impeccable, and not always had to lead by partiality or inadequate knowledge to the conclusion that a divorce i-' necessary without any specific ground. The other amendment is more important and effective still. i'lie former does not prevent the State from being infested with divorce hunters, or the Court dockets from being loaded with divorce appliedior.r and though it may compel the abai:'to..ment or defeat of 'two out of every three, it will make little difl'erence in the opinion entertained of lis abroad. Thatcomes from the number of cases that comes to us, no matter what we do with them But the latter interposes directly to shield the reputation of the State, as well as to restrain the wild license of this saturnalia of mismated husbands and wives. It prohibits any divorce application until alter three years of actual residence. This, it is easy to see, goes to the right place. It compels an exasperated husband to think three years "whether lie does well to be angry before it opens a way to him to make the consequences oi his anger irreparable. It gives ample room to a petulant wife to weigh her provocation against its effects, before she puts herself into a position which, "let her be as chaste as ice, or as pure as snow,'' will be so far equivocal as to attract the attention of men whose very conduct is moral contagion. It will save many, if not all, of these exhibitions, half funny half deplorable, of divorced husbands and wives remarrying, which the papers notice nearly every day. Tt will make a hedge, hard to climb, and harder to get through to matrimonial freedom, all round the Stale. Three years of actual residence is a serious matter. It means boarding at a heavy expense for that length of time, or permanent change of residence at a still heavier expense. And it will be hard to evade. If it were like the ground of application, something to be -ettied in die trial of the case, it would be ineffective, but it is not. It is a fact of the most palpable kind, and it must be established, not to get a divorce, but to get permission to ask for it. Iris lb? condition precedent to letting the case into Court. And it, will keep away from here all who can't afford a three years' residence for a new wife or paramotir or whosfi resentments arc pretty sure to out in so long a period of reflection or whose hot passions will fade or turn in anew direction when Ihe law stands so fully and fixedly in tin way. That will be a large per cent, those who now make our Stale so unenviablv well known.

INDIANAPOLIS LETTEH.

The Soldiers'." Home—Itcinocratic"" Caucus. INDIANAPOLIS, Feb. 4.

Let me^'post uf&to date. A bill passed the Senate yesterday^Secting coaitner--cial paper, which wasf^o amended as $»* allow no "days of grace" upon sight drafts o.- bills of exchange payable by banks, or on ordinary bank checks. This may in* tereat your Wabash bankers. An attempt is in progress to close lip. our State Solrs' IIJUIJ and send the inmates to the National Home, at Dayton, empty ont the soldiers' orphans, about two hundred, of whom are housed, cared for and educa ted there, and turn the building into an asylum for the incurably insane. Humanity certainly demands some public provision for the hopelessly deranged, but humanity ar.d justice and gratitude demand that our soldiers orphans should not be turned out homeless and ignoiant, to suffer, for the sei vices of their parents. Besides, the disabled soldiers want to stay at home. They are among fri :nd* here, and though Dayton is not r..-. .d is easily reached, and they will have plenty of old comrades there, they don't feel -1* if it cotlld be home to them as a Ro»..-ier asylum, made specially for them, is. The movement is strongly tinged with partisan influences, but it probably will not be run to an extreme party length. If it is not, it may fail, as several Democrats were on the committee that visited our Home this week, and Dr. Hannaman tells me that they were all pleasantly impressed with the institution, and expres?ed their wish to have it kept up. But the action of

Senator Dittemore yesterday, in regard to the matter, indicates either that Dr. Hannaman didn't fully understand liira, or that he has since changed his mind. He proposed a committee to visit the Dayton Home, to see if the Knightstown soldiers cuild be received there, and his motive, lie said, was ihe assurance of the officers that the orphans could be better cared for if tlicy occupied the institution exclusively. This may be true, and if true, presents a plausible, if not convincing argument for the transfer policy. But those who have been foremost in the cause of the disabled soldiers and in establishing the Fome, are very fearful that the transfer is merely the firsf step in a heme to overturn the whole affair. It would be an ineffaceable shame to the State to have these fears realized through any influence, and if through partisan influences, the shame would be ten fold deeper.

Neither House is in session lo-day. Though the House adjournd to meet this morning and met, there was no quorum and after a good deal of idle and aimless fuss all hands went oil and went home.

The Democrats of the Legislature held a caucus last night in which the Hughes resolutions, against the Fifteenth Amendment, were discussed, and the policy of the party in regard 'o them canvassed pretty freely. I am informed that Mr. Hendricks was present, by request, and spoke forcibly—not violently, for he never does that—against committing ihe party to so dead an issue as the Amend, ment, and so impossible a project as convoking a National Convention to amend it. This "may be a slightly inaccura'e statement of his position, for I didn't hear him, of course, and I gather this only from what comes out in hints and half suggestions. The caucus, however, demonstrated the possession of a very considerable strength with the party in Mr. Hendricks It is not at all clear that the illy concealed enmity of the Brights' ntid the Sentinel has not helped more than it has hurt him, and I feel quite confident that his manlv action in resisting the efforts of some or his party to leave our unsurrendered Jorn! nnpro vided for, and allow the canal to b- sold that its enemies may make a «i«-e llaiion by getting cost for tbfir old debt, has stiengihened him in the opinion*! of all honorable men. He has never appeared to better advantage than in this attempt to shield the people of the Sate from a crushing debt twice as large as the one now just paid. It makes him odious to the speculators and "ring" workers, but it Will commend him to the mass of iiis party, who have as little desire to be taxed for S900,000 interest every year, as the Republicans have.

The House Committee, that is, the Democratic majoriiy of it, to which war* referred the matter of abolishing the S'tOe Agency, have reported against it. This is just what I expected, but the office may be abolished for all that. Four or five Democrats can't be depended on to keep up a useless office at a large salary, to give Pat. Shannon his reward, and they, with the solid Republic in vote, will beat it.

Speckled Fabrics.

The manufacture of fabrics in which minute specks of one color are seen on a dark ground, is becoming very common, this esult being generally produced by the introduction of a silken thread. The same effect, however, is now accomplished, and in some cases much more readily wiihout weaving in the dots, by a different arrangement. The speckles themselves were applied by the aid of a sprinklingapparatus, which divides the oil color verv finely and sprinkles it over the cloth. The apparatus consists of a tin box, closed everywhere, except on the front side. The "oil color is placed on the bottom of the box, and in'.o this is im mersed a small rotating cylindrical brush which lies parallel to the open side of the box. ar.d can be turned by means of a

LxDiANAroi.r®. Feb. (i.

Neither House had a quorum to-day, jnsequently theieis nothing to tell. The lower House has put the Senate bill amending the divorce law, as I informed yon the other day, up to its reference to the Judiciary Committee, and it can hardly fail to pa-s, with little change. The Soldier's Home affair, of which I wrote you on Saturday, it is claimed by ihosc who are urging it, is intended not to dispossess the disabled soldiers ol a home, but to make more room for I lie orphans of soldiers, who arc but very inadequately provided for now. The transfer to Dayton will subject them to no worse accommodations than they have at Knightstown, and will make room for more children as well as for more care of those already there.

The Governor, the Judges of the Supreme Court and the Sta:e oflicers have gone to Grcensburg to day, to attend the funeral of Judge Davison, one of I he first Supieme Bench elccled under the new Constitution.

was ot essentially local character, as the change.-* of terms of courts, a chionic nuisance of legislation, which ought to be abated by (he proposed reorganization of the judicial system. The Superior Conrt bill was put ill rough to its third reading, after being re-amended so as to make the State pay one-third of ihe salaries of ihe Judges instead of one-fourth, as by the first amendment. Ihe House gave ^3,000 each, '.lie State to pay 81,000 and the county $2,000. The Sena changed this to $2,500, the State to pay $500. The amendment to—day makes ihe Slate pay $SJ3 33. The committee in charge of the State Agency question was ordered to make a report to morrow morning, as to the expediency of abolishing the office, and Pat Shannon will soon be out of his misery. i» lie House, as I wroie you some davs ago, a report was

Democrats oT thatjBg ^iii.tee against abolition. The Senate majority wiIf iio dotibt report against it too. But if tlfcy do. there is §tilla»drop of bitter Jo (he cup of the ponderous eon of Erin, for thl House §o-day pamd a bill cutting^ the salary xlcrwn$q $1,000, inclusive of expenses, and the Senate got bold of straightway and referred it to await (lie decision of the question of abolition. That won't be as "soft" a thing as so fat a man would like to sit down on.

The House has been jost "whirling tilings" to day. First, though last done, it beat the Game and Fish Preservation bill by 53 to 39, a crushing lay out, which (orbidsone to hope for any legislation at all in this direction for two years. The bill was rather sweeping in some of its features, and was thought to be needlessly" restrictive, but it would have been a good work, which, being undone, will counterbalance the benefit of about any five other bills that may be passed. Mr. Cox, of Miami, pronounced it "the silliest bill that ever came before a legislative body." Mr. Mitchell, of Monroe, said lie "should be ashamed to meet his constituents after voting for it." The member from Greene," who most ai.- opriateiv represents its name, igreed with Mr. Mitcheil. Liebig says that no food in the world is so largely •pplied with brain-making material as (i.It might be suggested, in view of the speeches of Messrs. Cox, Mitchell, and the Gii.ene man, that they could not well give a vote more diametricallv opposed to their own inte-asts than thai on the li.-.i. bill. Nothing less than li... three times a day, wilh :i chowder for lunch, and a porpoi-e for Sunday, will ever supply their lamentable lack of what ti.-h contains such an abundance. The principal objeciion of tho-c—who really had an objection, and not a stupidity, was, like that of Mr. Gordon, of Boone, to the prohibition of a man's shooting or trapping on his own land. But the bill is gone, and I doubi if even a more moderate one could be passed now.

The House also passed the Senate bribery bill, of which 1 wrote you at the time it passed the Senate. The law against bribery, at present, extends only to judicial officers. This bill makes it felony in legislators, county, city, township, and all oilier officers.

In the Shoenaman congested case from Laporie, the seat was declared vacant, and the contestant, Simon Wiles, takes nothing. In the contested case from Porter, the .ontest was withdrawn, and Major C'alUins declared entitled to the seat lie has held all the session. In the Shoenaman case, Mr. Wilson, of this county, took the ground that a seat could not be declared vacant by a majority of a mere quorum that it required a "constitutional majority" of 51, as it does to pa-s a bill. This is a novel construction of the constitution, but i', has a strong suggestion of sense in it.

The bill calling State Cons! itutior

A joint resolution, asking Congress for an appropriation for Michigan City harbor was passed this afternoon, as was the Senate bill making void all contracts in notes of hand that the maker adds to the lawyer's fees, if the holder of the latter were couq-t-"d to bring suit upon it. 'llie Senate bill excluding Banks from the brnefit of "grace" upon bills of :change and sight drafts, and drafts in the ordinary cause of business, was passed. This is a summary of all of any general interest. T. T.

About a year since a gentleman in business in New York, and largely interested in the cause of Ten.perance, had occasion io visit England in oneoi the.steamers of the Cunard line, and noticed the lirst day out 'lie midday di.-tribu'ion grog to the forecastle ban-!--. The same evening he visited il I'oie castle, and found that but two of I .J seamen were Temperance men. With theii aid be instituted evening meetings, and every night stayed late with the men,telling temperance anecdotes, singing song-1 of like character, etc. Toivatd the end of the voyage he prepared a pledge sheet, which twenty-four of the steamer's hands signed, including cooks, stewards, eoalpassers, etc.

Oil reaching the dock, entirely to the Surp of ihe signers, he presented each of thi with a sovereign, which he requested they would deposit in a savings bank, iiat it might be a nucleus for ittture sa vings, and received a promise from each that they would write once a year to him, and State how they were keeping their pledge, and how the sovereign of each was increasing.

These letters have lately been received, and go to prove how much good may be accomplished by a person individuals if he works with his whole heart. Tuen"" the signers write to say that they have kept their pledge, many of tliem enc osing ceriificates to that effect from temperance societies to which they belong.

Eighteen send proof that their sovereign is yet in the savings bank, and that it has been added to, in one ins'ance, to the extent of several pounds. Two, by reason sickness, had drawn ont and spent the original sovereign, but had since then deposited several shillings toward its renewal. One letter came from a sailor, now serving in a Rritish man-"f war, where he was daily laughed at for keeping his pledge, but which neverthe le-=s he had kept, as was shown by a cer-j lificate enclosed from his superior officer.

Of the remaining four nothing bad beerif I heard but the giver of the sovereign had not yet lost hope (hat he will speedily hear from them, as they may be now on service at distant parts of the world.

Feb. 5.—George Ilaub son o: the founder of Haubslaui, in Gibson county, stabbed his wife, a prostitute, yesterday evening about 8 o'clock, in a house of ill fame, whither she went away from him. After stabling her he stabbed himself, the wounds penetrating to the lungs in both cases. The woman, formerly Mattie Gray, alias Ida or Ada Moore, of Terre Haute, is veiv low, and Haub, who is now in jail, is but little better.

Convention was indeOrii'ely post pom.ii the House. Hughes' joint resolution against the Fifteenth Amendment was referred. It will make a debate when it conies back, not because it needs debating, or because there is any possibility of doing anything with it, but because there are at least fifty-seven members anxious to make a speech for the next nomination, and this is the only purely partisan subject they are likely lo get hold of. Of that fifty-seven, long experience in the "ways that are not very dark" of young legislators, leads me to conclude that at least forty-three can't be closed off by anything but the Sheriff', or the previous question.
