l|nterprir>e. j. y. PBicnrr. editor. THURSDAY, ; : MARCH 11,1873 Hon. Horace Matnard, ex-con-greMman from Tennessee, has been appointed by the president as United States minister to Turkey. Sai— The bill for the admission of Colorado into the Union as a state lias passed, both branches of congress, and another star has been added to the constellation of states. The bill for the admission of New Mexico failed to pass. In consequence of a strike of the operatives, six mills have closed at Fall River, Massachusetts. The monthly pay roll of the companies which have been compelled to suspend, amounts in the aggregate to about 890,000. Tira new fee and salary; bill passed by the Indiana house of representatives reduces auditors’ fees about3o percent; clerks, 20; sheriffs’ 20; treasurers,’ 30 in small counties and 40 in larger ones; commissioners 84 per day, jurymen, 82; constables' mileage, 3 cents; witness fees, 81.25 per day; township trustees. 82,50 per dayTire public debt statement shows a decrease during the month of February, of 86.680,183. The increase in the revenue which enabled the government to pay off so large an. amount of the debt for that month, is attributed to the excitement in regard to the probable increase in the tax on whisky, Ac. The railroad - war between the Pennsylvania Central and the Baltimore A Ohio continues, and the former company has reduced passenger rates from Chicago to Baltimore to 88. and it is probable that the Baltimore & Ohio company will come below these figures unless a compromise or settlement of the troubles should be made. The late session of the Indiana legislature expired by limitation at midnight on the 6th Insfo without having accomplished anything in the way of needed legislation. Thejneo-ssary tion bills for carrying on the state g«>v-, eminent remain Unpaged, and this rendered it necessary for the guvernqpto call an extra session,.which met day. This legislature has provft a very expensive farce to the taxpayers of the State. ... The railroad war is not confined to the Baltimore & Ohio and the Pennsylvania Central exclusively. It is evidently eclipsed by that now being waged between the Ohio A Mississippi and the Indianapolis A St. Louis. The regular fare from Louisville to St. Louis by these roads is 811.00. but the Ohio A Mississippi cut to 85, when the Indianapolis A St. Louis immediately reduced rates to 81 between the two cities. ______ A BILL for the Equalization of bounties of the soldiers who served in the Union anny during the rebellion passed both branches of the congress,of the United States, and xs it was a measure, the justice <rf which was almost unquestioned, almost every one was anxions to see become a law. It provided that a bounty, of should be granted to every soldier who Served in the Union army, deducting the amount of lountv such soldier had already received. The bill passed the senate during tlie closing hours of the session, and has failed to l«ecome a law in consequence of. the president withholding his signature. The reasons assigned by the president are that the condition of the treasury will not warrant so great an expenditure as this would entail, and that there was some irregularity in the manner in which the bill originated. The president’s reasons may' be sound and good, but we think that it will be difficult to convince the large num of gallant men who served their country nobly and /veil v without a cent of bounty during the most trying period of the war. that such is the case. It appears to' us that this bill wa£ so manifestly just, that it should have received the president’s signature and become a law. unless graver reasons exist against such a course than have been assigned by the president. We trust that the next congress may pass a bill of like nature which will become a law. The United States senate met in extra session on the Sth inst, when nineteen new members were sworn in. Two of the newly elected members. Booth, of California, and Sharon, of Nevada being absent One of the new members— Brvce, of Mississippi, is a colored man. and is said to bear a st ricking resemblance to Kalakava, King of the Sandwich Islands. The incoming members in intellectual appearance, do not compare favorably with those whose places they take. After an organization of the senate was effected, it adjourned until Monday, when a message of the president will be transmitted to that body. At the close of the session many of the members, including some prominent republican members, went over to the seat occupied by Andrew Johnson and cordially shook the hand of the ex-president It was a matter of general observation that Ashley, of Ohio, the mover of the impeachment resolutions, was on the floor as a spectator. Two of those who were members of the house at the time of the impeachment trial— Logan and Bovtwell —are now members of the senate. N :.e of the senators who voted to liequit Johnson at that time are niw members of that body. It is impossible to determine what business will) be brought before the senate for action aside from the treaty with the grnadwlch Islands, and the resolution ator Mobton admitting PinchbackTgC LoubißM. and recogniring as the legal and rightful governor of that state

THZ TOZTT-THDU) COXGUM, k • The second session of the forty-third congress of the United States closed on Thursday last, and the work of its members as a legislative body, is ended. Its action has passed into history, and the individual members will be held accountable for the course they have pursued by their constituents. •As a legislative body, they have had many difficulties to encounter and surmount which other congresses have not been called upon to consider, and many questions of grave, national importance have been before it for consideration and settlement Perhaps no congress of the United States has grappled with as grave questions as has the one that has just closed its session, and certainly the individual members of none have had the vituperation and abuse heaped upon them from those opposed to them politically, as the members of the fortythird congress have. That this abuse and slander has been uncalled fur and unjust, every candid man mfrst; admit as a careful and unprejudiced review of the work performed by this body, will show that less jobbery and corruption can be fastened upon it than upon any similar body for a score or more of years. That bad and unscrupulous men have held positions in that bodyall will admit and that some legisla- ■ tion has been enacted which the interests of the country do not seem to de- ■ mand, is also evident, yet taken as a ; wh6le, we consider pie bills passed by ’ this body as less objectionable than those of many of its predecessor. In the early stages of the Session, a finance bill was passed. w hich, if it does ■ not meet the approval of all; has certainly had the effect of quieting the minds of the people on this subject, and to the excitement and agitation -growing out of the unsettled state of <air finances im>re than to the real want of legislation on the subject was the country indebted to the prostration in : business that existed befoire the passage ! of the bill in question. Unless thp financial legislationof the last congress is . tampered with by the succeeding one, we feel confident that the business of the country will adjust itself to the .needs of the people, and an era of prosperity again be inaugurated. W’ forty-third congress reduced the salAry of its members to a reasonable ©ympensatiun, and passed! nUny laws Ur harmony with the desfiris of thej-eo- , pie who were suffering 4 depression, of their business fjrum the (results of the financial ]smic, from the ■ Effects of which the business of tlie country has not as yet completely . recovered. It has had to consider the! alarming condition Os Southern affairs, and its action in regard to Louisiana has shown that the majority were not aictuateal by partisan prejudices or motives of selfish party interests, but were really legislating to give pence to that section while giving security to all in the exercise of the rights of American It has the civil rights bill; which has received the! sanction of some of the purest and best of the truly great men of the country, among whom we number Horace Greeley. Charles Sv mnek and others. It was the measure of all others to which (he latter gentleman devotvd, the closing years of his useful career as a senior of the United States, and to be instrumental in securing the success of the measure, heconSidered the crowning glory of his life. . The appropriation (bills that were passed during the closing hours of the session, were not ladened with other bills of a questionable character as has heretofore been the practice, and nothing in the shape of a subsidy has been granted unless the appropriation in aid of the Rads project for maintaining a sufficient depth of water in the Mississippi river at its moiithfur unobstructed navigation;“can be so considered. Almost the entire (population of the Mississippi Valley were unanimously in favor of the proposed system, and congress but acted in this instance in accordance with the expressed wish of the people. Of’ course there were measures enacted that we cannot endorse, yet in the main; their action has been such as to entitle them to the respect and confidence of the American people. Time alone will determine Whether as much can be said of its successor—the Forty-fourth congress of . the United.States.''!,- [. ■ v J.: A week or two since, we stated that it Was very probable that James N. Tyner, of Indiana, would receive the appointment of second assistant postmaster general, and bur statement has since been confirmed, Mr. Tyner was nominated for that position by the president, and the senate^ without much opposition, confirmed the appointment, and that gentleman has already entered upon the duties of the office for which he is so eminently fitted. The Chicago iMter-Ocean, of a recent date, has this to say of the appointment: The president has never made a more fitting uppointtuent than that recently announced of the 1 lon. J ames N.Tynkr of Indiana, as second assistant postmaster general. He enters upon the | discharge of his new duties to-day. He has been for two years a member of the house committee on appropriations, where he has had the principal charge of all expenditures made for the postoffice department Having to prepare the bills,As well as stoutly defend them upon the floor of the house, where they are always sure to be assailed, he has 'necessarily acquired a thorough knowledge of all the details of the management of that department. He is a man of talent and tact, always full of resources for instant emergencies, and will make a most efficient officer in his new position. He has been a very useful member of the house, and has been frequently called to preside, where he has manifested full ability to control that noisy bear garden in some of its stormiest hours. The action of congress in regard to the contested seats in the lower house would indicate that that body is willing to commit itself against the validity of the Louisiana election of 1872. Gbo. El Sheridan was admitted to a seat in that body a short time before its adjournment, as representati ve-at4arge instead of Pinchback, his contestant, and then a resolution was passed rmseating J. Hale Stpher and giving the Mat to Mr. Effingham LawjuKNCHi the eqatteatant tn the caao

Horthara ladfaaa. The ice on the St Joseph river at aka isMishaw two feet thick. The last 8500 awarded by the Ligonier Building and Loan Association commanded a premium of 8114. Mr. E. W. H. Ellis; of Goshen, and Mr. Funk, of Warsaw, were in Albion last week for the purpose of reviewing the accounts and records connected with the alleged Mendenhall defalcation case. Some scoundrels recently fired the barn of a_Mr. Harding, near I-a Porte, but previous to committing this act, butchered one of his fat cattle, carrying away the meat and hide. The steer was worth 850, and the barn was totally destroyed. Judge William A. Woods, of Goshen, will hold court in Noble county during this term, in place of Judge Best, who will preside in Judge Woods’ court. This arrangement was made to accommodate the latter gentleman, as several cases will be tried in his court in which he was counsel prior to his election as judge. Two young monos South Bend, Messrs. James R. Davis and John H. Shanks, have-been detected in the crime of embezzlement, and one of them has left for parts unknown, while t|he other has made restitution. The first named was in the employ of Hon. Andrew Anderson. while the other was deputy county treasurer. Both of these young men have jmssessed, the confidence of their employees and therespeelt of their fellow men, and the news of tfepir crimes creates considerable excitement in South Bend. (• Elkhart Ceaaty Hrw«. The school board of the city o( Goshen agreed upon build- ' ing a school building, to replace the one destroyed by fire a few months since, to cost about 815,000 or 816,000. I The great events of Goshen for the : last week or two were the Latta-Case ! and the Geddes-Beane weddings, mention of which has already been made in our columns by “Ah Sin,” our Goshen correspondent. i j ‘ . ! Mrs. Elizabeth Poorliaugh, formerly ■ ay old resident of Benton, di|ed recent- ■ ly in Goshen at the advanctsl age of 92 yeays, 3 months and 17 days, she was well known to many of OUT Elkhart [©Minty readers. The Wakarusa Sun says that Anthony Wisler. of that place, lias hauled : about 150 saw logs to the mill, drew 3s cords of wood to Elkhart, a distance of ( 14 miles, this winter, and besides had a sick wife and child and was grunting all the time himself. A correspondent of the GoshenTtmes. writing from Nappanee, on the Baltimore & Ohio railroad, gives a glowing account of the •improvements that are being made at that place. It is a new town just laid off on the line of the B. & 0 road and is two or three miles south of Locke and almost seven miles from Wakarusa. ’ The Lagrange rape case, i which was brought to Goshen from LaGrange on a change of venue, was concluded at the recent session of the Eckhart county circuit court, the jury rendering a verdsict of “ not guilty ”! The Democrat saysjthat it excited as much interest as a can-can performance, and was twice as demoralizing. Burglars continue their operations in Elkhart county. An attempt was recently made to force an entrance into a store in Wakarusa, but after the burglars had succeeded in partly prying open a back window, they evidently became alarmed at something and left This window was discovered partly open on the following morning. The Goshen Times denies the statement that has been made in regard to Mrs; Moulton being a daughter of Joseph L. Jernegan, formerly of Goshen, It says that Mr. Jernegan’s daughter married Mr, Bowen, a nephew of the editor of the New York Independent. It claims to have its information from an old citizen of Goshen who was intimately acquainted with the family of. Mr. Jernegan. ' I A young man named Turbin has disappeared from Goshen in a somewhat singular manner. He had worked for a few days in a harness; shop in that city, and then disappeared, since when nothing is known as toh|s w hereabouts. His tools were left in the shop, and his valise at the Western Union hotel The Democrat says there is a mystery about the affair that nedds a little attention in clearing up. There is a revival of the excitement in regard to the mineral wealth of the Black Hills region, and highly colored accounts of the richness of that country in gold and silver are being circulated throughout the country. Mr. D. G. Tallant, in a letter dated Black Hills, Feb. 2nd, which appeared in the Sioux City Journal, saj| s: Independent of the rich silver mines, there are iron deptwita, (hills of marble and gold quartz, with fertile valleysand rich prairies, the earljh of which is mixed with gold at every step. We have inexhaustible forests of the finest pine known to the West, and rivaling in quality the forests of Northern Wisconsin. Yesterday, with the aid of one rocker, five dollars worth of gold was taken out in about One hour. That found in the gulch is generally fine gold, but yesterday coarse gold was struck. A stock company has been formed, of which Col Sawyer is manager, for the purpose of starting a line of stages between Sioux City and the gold regiop. in early spring. We would advise our readers not to be carried away by this excitement, as it is more than probable that it is created in the interest of speculators who expect to profit by the rush to the new Eldorado. Old Californians who remember the excitement in regard to the Gold Bluffs, Kern River and Fraser River humbugs of 20 or 25 years ago, will remain at home and await developments, before starting for the new ** diggings-** The civil rights biU has received the prea>d«mt*« signature, and is now the law of the land.

Bev Pazfe OKHRMtau*. N«w Pajur, March 8,1875. Mr and Mrs. Isaac Hartman buried one of their infant twin children last Sunday, Feb. 28th. 7” The youngest child of Andrew Jones h— been quite sick with lung fever, but it is better at this time. The Evangelical protracted meeting has closed, but 1 believe without much success in regard to converts. H. Abshire is preparing to take a western tour with a view to look at the country and select a location if any is found to suit. >, The deepest snow of the season fell here on the 3rd inst, being a fall of 12 inches in 8 hours, and in all, making about 18 or 20 inches of snow. Our lyceum has been suspended for the last two weeks on account of the protracted meeting, but will convene again on Tuesday evening, March 9th. Clayton Marks,our enterprising young townsman, will start for the western Eldorado in a few weeks. We wish him success, inasmuch as he has promised to send us one of the Black Hills as a specimen. Messrs. Morton and Milo Blanchard, of lowa, formerly of this place, are stopping for a few days here with their friends, and will then go to New York to visit their father and other kindred. They speak of having had a very severe winter in lowa. C. Moon, one of the engineers on the Canada Southern railroad. spent a few days here last week. He says that he received notice to be ready for work about the Ist of April. Other indica-tions-show that the road will be built the coming season. We are still going along in the usual routine, longing for the cessation of this cold weather, and looking forward to the balmy days of spring for that change which, in the nature of things, occurs at that season of the year. A meeting was called last Friday night with a view to the organization of a Building, Loan and Saving Association. The project is meeting with success, as already enough members have been secured to procure a charter from the state, and there will be no trouble I think in having all the stock taken. 85Q.000 is the amount aimed to be carried in shares of SSOO each. If this amount can be taken it will make ! a good showing for the enterprise of our citizens. 1 There have been some transfers of real estate in the last few days. Mr. J. Hindcrshot Jias bought the property known as the “ Bernum property,” situated, on Main street, consisting of four full lots of four by ten rods each, and is dividing them into building lots of 22x165 feet and selling the same. Some are already sold and others spoken for. Thomas Epart takes one and will erect a blacksmith shop immediately. Wm. Harriman expects to build a cabinet* shop on another of them the coming summer. Luke. Benton Items. The Benton bridge has made arrangements to “go west” as soon as navigation opens. Dr. S. B. Kyler has been confined to his room for several days by illness—ague I believe. Mr. Louis Vail and Mrs. Sarah Kinnison have gone to Pennsylvania to spend the summer. Mr. William Jackson and lady, of Ligonier, are visiting friends and relatives here. Will keeps the “boys” in a roar of laughter by his humorous “ yarns.” Come again. Will. Mr. Henry and David Hockert, former residents of this township, now of lowa, are here. They have soldtheir farms in lowa and think some ing back to this country to regidk . Our spring term of school commences on Monday, March 15th, with Mr. Bert. Irwin in the principal department and E M. Dennis in the primary department. The former teaches a term of three months, while the latter teaches but one month. Mr. Thomas Prickett and mother, Mrs. Frazier, who have been in Earlville, Illinois, for several weeks, have returned. Mrs. Fraser was treated for cancer while there, and the cancer was removed and a cure effected. t Mrs. Rebecca Hess, of this place, has gone with her brother, John Miller, to Kosciusko county to take charge of the residence and furniture bought of James Maguire for the magnificent sum bf $9. We are not informed as to Jimmy's motives for sacrificing his parlor and kitchen furniture at so low a figure. It is hoped, however, that the citizens of Turkey Creek township can prevail on him to remain with them. From personal observation of some things that transpired while in the treasurer's office at Goshen, on March 3rd, we are led to believe that those virtuous ladies who desire to be released from matrimonial bonds, a la mother Pitts, can gain valuable information in regard to where testimony can be secured, by enquiring of John Egbert or Charley HinkeL A Native. On the repeal bf the franking privilege. the vote in the senate was very significant. The motion of Mr. Robertson was to repeal all laws and parts of laws repealing the privilege, and to restore it as it previously existed. This motion Mr. West moved to lay on the table. Only nine but of fortynine republicans voted against this motioq, namely Alcorn, Spencer, Edmunds, Robertson. Conover, Flanagan, Harvey, Lewis and Pease, and of these all except Edmnds and Harvey are from the southern states, • But of all the democrats, only two, Hager of California, and Hamilton of Maryland voted for the motion. Every other democrat present voted against the motion and to restore the franking privilege. Our own great statesman. Mr. Bogy, was one of the three democrats who were absent. Stockton and Norwood being the others. Fifteen out of twenty of the democrats thus go on record as favoring the repeal, while twenty-nine republicans voted 6 against, and only nine for it Mr. Schurz voted to lay it on the table, Mr. Tipton voted against that motion, and Fenton, and Hamilton of Texas were absent This looks as though the franking busmens would be revived as soon as the democrats get a majority in the house.—JfiwowriDvmoervA
