U .7, Lord Us?, j our scjmpy, lit le, narrow minded tor.la, no. j Wha! put fach a ridiculous notion in your nojgins ? llecatu cl hav'nt put the ticket at the litad of' .our olumo? Is'nt thtre p..nty of time for thai j What i. the use of ketone the names ilmrlf of the candldaUs before the public aix or eight noaths? It is not mca so much as principles wc contend forthough, we admit, good principles deaenre good men to carry them out, and the fact that a man's name is od the Union ticket ii prima facie erUence that he is a good man, while the opposite is true of the nominees on the Coppeihead ticket. We know it is common to put up the ticket at the head cf the columns as soon as the nominations are made, no matter how long before the election , but we see no sense in the custom and consequently do not choose to follow it. We have published the names cf the nominees once, and hare intim itd every week since o ur intention not ynlj t-3 support the ticket but the principles enunciated by the Convention which nomiuated it; therefore, when the riy mouth Weekly Democrat sys thaf'Some of its party friends are anxious to know what the course of the Republican will be," it limply l. None of our party friends either feel or have expressed any doubt on the subject. The staUmentis a s'l'y fabrication, such an one, however, as always emanates from that source, whL9ver it attempts to be witty or sarcastic The Plymouth Weekly Democrat tclli a Etory about an ass that starved to death between two stacks of oats, because it could cot decide which slack to commence on. It ought to bo ashamed t ?peak o.disrespectfully of its paternal relative. The Scripture commands "Honor thy father and mother," but the LVmocrat seems to c.ve as little for this injunction as it dees for patriotism or truth. Constitutional Amendment Dcrented. We believe we neglected lat week to notice the defeat in the Senate on lat Monday week of

the proved amendment to the Constitution than-jj f:ng the basis of representation so that persons

By this means, together with the divisions in the Union party, they hope to again sail into power. General Neal Dow lately had a conversation with two. South Carolina aristocrats, who declared that the South would insist on being paid two billions of dollars for her slave?, and for all the devastation she had suffered during the war, and have her enroled soldiers and soldiers wid ows nut on the tenon list the same as ours. Th Arne .idea is running in the heads of tens of thousnds of other reconstructed rebels; and every malignant Northern Copperhead stands ready to aid and abet them in carrying out this purpose. This is a pretty game, and it will be well for the friends of the Union to keep a jealous eye on these reconstructed gentlemen and their Northern allies. Both are (till rebels at Jieart, and never will forgive the patriots for removing them from rower and then soundly threshing them for rebelling. TS old Ilotler3'. A case of thii kind i snorted in th Montana I Democrat of the 2 1th ult, which says, that as ' James Ttlbot, of Nevada, was oa til way from 1 Helena to Vireinia City, he was robbed of 250 J ounces of gold dust. Just before he reached Jefferson Briige, two men cn horseback approached him as he was ridiag along asd said, "Jim, give us your money," presenting their revolvers at the tame time, thus getting the "drop on him." Mr. Talbot, of course, had no alreraative but comply. Democracy An It Is. The Police docket of yesterday, says the Indianapolis Journal of Saturday, revealed something like thirty cases of "visiting houses of ill -fame," the victim of every one of which was unfortunate Ij a delegate to the Democratic State Convention. The bombastic and unprincipled Applegate, of Carroll county, who withdrew his name as a candidate for Attorney General by "consent," headed the lut.havLig been caught in one of the lowest and vilest sinks in the city. Applegate was the enly man who was contemptible enough to assault Governor Morton and bis infamous attack, greeted as it was with cheers, will be properly estimated, when the people of the State finds out his true character. The Fenians) Snubbed. It is remarkable, says the Indianapolis Journal, that among the numerous resolutions adopted by the Copperhead State Convention, there is not a tingle worl of encouragement or recognition of the Fenians. The Irish voters have been the hewers of wood arid drawers of water for that corrapt party; and while their hearts are all aglow for Ireland, it does seem that the men who are so ranch indebted to them might hare giren them the cheap compliment of a resolution of encouragement. The reason of their silcnee is the fear that if the Fenians go to Ireland or to Canada, to fight the British, the party will lose their votes. Little do the Copperhead manager csre for Ireland and her wrongs; they would Fink the whole Island to carry the next election. Ale. II. Stevens, of Georgia, made a rpeech on the 20d of February, which would do honor to the head and heart of almost any man. What tho Copperheads will think of Steven after this is what we would like to know. Stevens, as a liberal and ealighteaed statesman, is a hundred years ahead of any Northern Copperhead we know of. - The Logansport Pha roe publishes the speech, and we would like to see it in the columns of ib Plym puth Democrat, but hare little hope of it. Bog J41W Cnconstltutloiial. At the recent term of the Sullivan Circuit Court " farmer was Indicted for refejiog to give ia Iii dogs for taxation, and snoved to quash the indictment,' on the ground that the law requiring thea to be returned was nneonstitutiooal.

Judge Eckela decided thai 4he law was a violation of the State Constitution, n4 for that reason quashed the indictment.

L'nder our present policy of protection the manufacturers, by their exhorbitant prices, which they are enabled to maintain by .combining together, are making the people tributary to them. By their course in this respect, they are doing more to cstablirh free trade than any ether chss. Many who have heretofore advocated protection, unable longer to answer the facts and argument of free tradeis are wavering, while many have absolutely become anti-protectionists. Very few papers now have any thinjj to say in favor of a protective tariff", while many are continually harping against the ruinous policy of protection. A Sleepy Copperhead. The Indianapolis Journals tells the following amusing stcry about an unfortunate Copperhead delegate to the Convention of the l.'th: One of the delegates to the late Copperhead Pnvftptirtn rrr.t t i rrltn a IT v ,UolitM ftn WjftlnAcrVi 1 j a,(tor emtiog around until mi.'r.ight, ' j was put to bed by hi companion, he insisting up -r t1i mni il.iliiT r f liiimnn nUira. ti.l infideiitv of Democratic ftcnuchs.

FRODI IV AS II I GTO.. The Senate caucus committee have agreeed to report Senator Broomali'a amendment to the Con - siktition, and it is thought it will pass. 1 he Civil Ri-hts bill wl hid before the Prc-ident last Friday .... ., . n ii- . j , v U hile the R.puMican. are confident he wi.l sign it, the Democrats prcsigO another rcto Senator Wilson on Monday introduced a bi. fr the equalization of bounties. It provides that each soldier shall receive a bounty of tight and one third dollars per mouth for every month of service rendered; the bounty already paid any soldier by the United States to be computed as a part or all of the bounty provided bv this bill. We will ; publish the bill in full next week. The first sold cr mustered into the United Stetes service to suppress the rebellion is still in service and on duty at Washington. He was sworn in April 10, 1861, Orderly Sergeant of the Washington Light Infantry, and Iii mameis James Coleman. A young man named William Pattison was robbed of hit valise and money in Louisville on Wednesday. The question then, now, is not" who struck Billy Patterson," but who robbed him? The freight depot of the New York central railroad at Buffalo, together with the splendid new elevator, a large number of loaded cars, freight, grain, &.c.( was totally destroyed by fire on Saturday. The loss is about one million of dollars, besides the grain, which was insured. As the Central docs its own insuring, the company will have the brunt "to bear. An attempt was made to rob the Schuylerville (N. Y.) Bank on Friday night, but the robbers were scared off before they had accomplished their purpose, leaving behind their tools, a splendid pair of horse.', and a splendid sword valued at $500. A !Vcw Plan of Representation. The New York Tribune of the 12ib vouches for the reliability of the information contained in one of its Washington dispatcaes which is as follows : The question of the recognition of the State Governments in the lately rebellious States will shortly be brought to a practical test. Measures have been taken bv prominent loyalists in the South, and are now being perfected undei the adj vice of leading men in Congress, to bring this ques tion to an early decision. The plan is as follows: Loyal meu, nnd they only, both black and white, in the States of Arkansas, North Carolina, Louisiana and elsewhere, have taken steps toward the formation of new State Governments. These loy .1 !.l .. tnlnlnr B-lll stinrflv iem. calls in their respective States for' State Conventioas. and elect delegat ions, and elect delegate thereto; the Convention so formed will frame State Constitutions embodying the principles of loyalty, fiedom and equal rights; will pledge themselves to the payment of the national debt, the repudiation 0 the rebel debt, and the disfranchisement of the Rebels. This beiag done, they will then proceed to elett Governors, State Officers, Representatives and Senators; the latter of whom will at once demand admission to Congress. The question thus "being thrust npon that body, tlre is no doubt of .the recognition of the Gaverninsnt so formed, and the admission of loyal members so elected. A number of true and loyal men of the South have been here for some days, consulting and deciding upon the best method to be adopted, and having determined upon the plan presented above, have left for their homes to carry ihe same into execution. The matter ha been kept very quiet up to this time, but as the movement in most of the States ia now well under way. no harm can. and perhepe Hcch good Tay, be done the Union cause by giving th feet to the public at thi time.

IM)I lA ITEMS. DriTBucrivt Fire. The last Peru Republican says: Aboutone o'clock last Saturday morning the Magnolia House lately the Adams Home at the corner of Second and Miami Streets, was discovered to be on fire, and th destructive element had made considerable headway before tlic alarm wa soun iei. The building was wholly of wood thoroughly seasoned, and very combustible, and its destruction at the time the engine was on

the ground ready for action, was a foregone conclusion. It was impossible t save it, and jc encrgici of the lirctnen and citizens were di rccted to the protection of adjoining building, and successfully. No other building was injured The Commissioners of Kosiusko, Miami, Fayette and several other counties in the State, refused at the late term to grant license to any more applicants to retail spirituous and malt liquors. The LaPorte Herald stvs that J B . Belford o.' that city will not be a candidate for Circuit Pros tcutor, but that L. A. Cole will. Released. The Logansport Journal of Satur day says: Mr. Farley, late Treasurer of Pulaski county, who has been confined in our jail oa a charge of robbing the present Treasurer of that countv. was released last week, as the Grand Jury failed to find an indictmeut against him. High Waters. The game paper remarks that the heavy rains of Sunday, Monday and Tuesday have sot the Wabash and Eel rivers upon a ram page. They are higher than they hare been for Ecveral yean. Considerable damage hasrrsulted in that vicinity, t'hl and Cheuey'a race bank on Eil rit er, is most of it washed away. Thirty feet of the dam above Forest Mills is gone, and a portion of Richardsou'i new Paper Mill, on the Vaba6h carried cfT. Drowned. From the Journal we also learn that a eon of Michael Martin, iged about 14 years, while helping his father catch drift wood, on Wednesday tlje 14th, was thrown iuto the river by the giving way of a portion of the abutment of the lower EI river dam, and drowr.ed. MtmDcrcrs Assault. On Tuesday, John Sprinkle, a returned soldier, met a young German Car: pent er nmed John Boehmer, on Market street, between Fourth and Bridge, and asked him if he knew where James Henrj lived. Boehmer replied that he did not. SprinkW said to him, "you are a liar," and drawing a stone from under his vest, struck Boehmer several blows, cutting his head and arm severely. Boehmer dropped his tools and fled. Sprinkle then picked up a hatchet which Boehmer had dropped, and crossed over to John Kane's shoe shop, where several persons t were standing, some of whom laughed when Boeh mer ran. Some words were passed, when Spriukle struck John Kane with the hatchet upon the bead, fracturing his skull, and inflicting a wound which seriously endangered Kane's life. A struggle en tifil in wliirh iiiv,ral B.frm nrri clfvlirlt w mi n ded, and Sprinkle was very roughly "handled. Sprinkle wasoound over in the sum of $1 ,00J. and is now lying m jail guttering Jrom Ins wounds. Bad whikev was at the bottom of the whole aff.iir. I.ncarifiiorl Journal.

The Democratic Convention. The Copperheads met in State Convention at Indianapolis on Thursday last, March 15th, and organized by appointing Cyrus L. Dunham, of rioyd, Chairman, and J. J. Bin-hmi, principal Secretary. All the Copperhead editors present were appointed assistant Secretaries. The Journal thus speaks of the assembly: THE AFPEARANCE Of THE CROWD. The delegates were rather more respectable looking than we expected to see them. Many of them were fixed up in new store clothes," which may be taken as an evidence of the self sacuncing snirit rtt lh D.rr apj tic ctnrvL-onora at tlmir 1 j,orntS. , The importance of putting-the best foot foremost had evidently been urged uwj the "great uuwash ' w was i-tiut-m mat mc question 0 ctHHi , h or . de6;d ni w4 ....I :. :.,... .t. .i r j in the choice of delegates. THE ARaANCEMENTS. The chairman of the State Central Committee had kiudly furnished ample writing facilities for the BohcuL'Hns, co were strongly represented. No more striking exemplification of Bingham's acute sense of the "fitness of things" could be presented than tht fact that he had placed upon the Speaker's table a small quart pitcher of water, and a small thick-bo'.tomed whisky glass. V. w suggested that the g ass alone would have held all the water uecessary for the entire Convention provided their customary bercrage was cornealable. TUE ANIMCS. The first demonstration, which consisted in "three cheers for Dan. Voorhecs," is an iudex to the political animus of the convention. The "Uli sycamore" had ever been ready to shed its "balls" (and muskets too,) for the benefit of their rebel companions in tribulation, and so had they. Copperheadism runs alter martyrdom amazingly, and now that Dan. is a martyr, they will try to make him a saint. The platform will not only be acceptable to Voorhees, but also to all his Southern allies. It will have a strong run in Alabama, but in Indiana it stands no chance at all. The moral tone of the Convention may be inferred from the unanimity with which C. L. Dunham was selected for Chairman. Men like McDonald, Ho! man, and others, who with all their political imperfections, are reputed to be sober men, stood no shadow of a chance. Dunham, Bingham, Greene, these were the leading spirits. The manner in which the abusive remarks of Applegate of Carroll, concerning Governor Morton, were received by the Convention, shows the same malignant haired toward those who have been the beet friends of the State, and her soldiery, that existed during the war. We hoped that some one might arise to rebuke this shallow coxcomb in the nsme of decency, but we hoped in rain. The rebuke mnst come from those who learned to appreciate the devotion of P. Morton, while standing between the nation and ber enemies in the army of the Union. The old "anti New England" spirit cropped out in the speeches of both Voorhees and Dunham. It is worthy of remark that these patriots who seek to bury all former animosities toward the South "for the sake of National harmony," strive in the same breath to inflame anintoiities between the Northwest and New England infinitely more to be deprecated. But hatred to New England is a cardinal virtue with their Southern masters, and they must do their bidding. The spirit in which the anti New England and pro Southern remarks were received, taken in connection with the fact that tho only resolution "hissed" in the Convention, was that repudiating the payment of the rebel debt, affords a topic for re flection even by those who have sworn to follow ? , ' Democracv though it takes them .n.erna, regions. No resolution, met with such stron? ornosition. however, as that favoring the eight hour system of labor. A vigorous epplication of the "fiag law" was the only, thing that saved it. If, among political tricksters, pulling every wire that could possibly help them to succeed, the cause of the laboring man meets with such ill disguised opposition, it may well awaken his apprehensions. But enough. The period of Democratic incubation has passed the bantling is born and its name is Jeff. Bom of a parentage rotten and festering with infection, the offspring is doomed to an early grave. The October winds shall waft its föBtid odors from theiostrilä of mankind, and the wsil of disappointed "confederate" hall be its requium. The following is the ticket nominated: Secretary of State, General Mahlon D. Manson, of Montgomery; Auditor cf State, Christian G. Badger, of Clark; Treasurer of State, James R. Ryan, of Marion; Attorney General, John R. Goffiroth, of Huntington; Superintendent of Public Instruction, R. M. Cbapra.,Q of Knox.

Te Southern Express Company have just paid to (he First National Bank of Memphis the good round sum of '$290,01)0, for moucy lost by the burning of the steamer W, R. Carter. The Igelit of

the Company, by a blunder, neglected to deliver the money when he reached Memphis, and it was carried by, and thus lost by the bi rning of the boat. ' 'Easter Pundar falls this year on the 1st of April. ThU circumstance has not occurred since lbU4, aud will only occur again twiue in tho pres ent cnturr, in 17 and Icm. Freeman Clark, Comptroller of the Currency, has written a sharp letter to Secretary McOuIlocb, in which he accuses him of making erroneous state ments of the condition of the Treasury, and also with selüug $19,nU0,OJO worth of bonds without authority. The Boston AJccrtiscr also says that leading financiers disapproves of hi policy of secret Treasury negoeiations. A special from St. Joseph Missouri, says; "There is no longer any doubt that bushwhackers in the river counties are organizing into marauding bands, but with what strength is not precisely known. The authorities will, ua doubt, take the matter in hand, anJ defeat their murderous desigu. A specinl dispatch from Toronto to the New York Commercial says that the Canadian authorities are in possession of the etartling intelligence that thousands of Fenians will cross their borders as soon as the weather will permit, and will be joined by sympathizers in Canada. The steamer San Juan, of the New York and Savannah line, ws burned at New York Thursday. Five hundred bales of cotton and ten theu sand barrels of tr were destroyed. A special from Washington says P. is understood in Democratic circles that President Johnson declined to give aid or comfort to Heisterclymer, the Democratic nominee for Governor of Pennsylvania, and arrangements are being made for his withdrawal and the offering of a mmi who is not personally offensive to the President. Won dcrful consideration, indeed. Mr. Romero, Mexican Minister, appeared before the House Committee on Foreign relations on Thursday, aw explained the proposition for the United Slates to guarantee the bonds of the Mexican Republic. It is not probable that he will be able to make the Committee see the point. The detectives of New York have gained possession of the plates from which the counterfeit $100 compound interest notea were printed. The impression was taken from the steel roller in the Department, on a sheet of lead, and the plate was made from it. The cost of the new railroad bridge at Albcny was $1,100,(00. The New York Centralis said to own one-half, and the Western and Hudson River each a quarter. The fur companies formerly sent from St. Louis two boats each summer up to the Rocky mountains, to supply their tradirg posts and bring back the accumulation of furs and peltries, and the Government rent one to take out the Indian annuities. Now no less than seventy-five steamers are advertised to leave during the month of April. Immenee quantities ot goods and groceries are being purchased to go to the mountains this season. Governor Brownlow is at Knorvillo and publishes his intention to addrc s the people in half hour speech on State aud N ational alTurs on the first Monday in April. He says; "I shall not speak with a forked tongue and double face, but without disguise or concealment tell the people where i stand, without pausing to learn whether mv sentiments are popular or unpopular. A special dipttch i.iys the Ticsidint hag determined to luve 4'J,0UÖ colored troops now sta tioned at the SoutU mustered out within the coming month. A cotton factory at Macon, Georgia, is no in full blat, turuicg out UJ.U'KI yard of sheetin o I month. ForneyN Iteconstrnction Programme. In a double h-aded leader Forney's Washington Chronicle marks out a programme lor Confess that seems to be wise and judicious so far as it goes. It really needs but one thing more than what it specifies to make it an acceptable pro gramme to all fair minded patriotic men, viz: some provision to secure the right of suffrage in the rebellious States to at least two classes of colored men those who have fought for the Union and received honorable discharges, and those who can read and w rite. Who would withhold the suffrage from patriotism and intelligence? Wtat Republican in tlto whole Union would object to letting a colored soldier vote who fought for the Union, if a rbel who fought against it shall be allewed to vote? If whole masses of viciors, vengeful traitorous whites, who are so ignorant that they can either read nor write, -hall be endowed with the elective franchise, on what principle of safety or justice shall Icyal colored men who can 'both read anJ write be deprived of that privilege? Senator Wilson's ter.rs of readmission often rebel States provide that those loyal colored men who have berne arms for the Union, and those who e in read and write, shall be entitled to vote for Presidential electors, members of Congress and the S.tUe Legislatures. Certainly nothing less than this will ever satisfy the constituents of Republican Congressmen. Here are the measures urged upon the attention of Congressmen by the CArontele. The next thing In order would be the passage at an early a, the House 01 Rpresenttives, of Senator Trumbull's bill securing civil rll:u to the people of the whole Union. This measure has already passed the Senate, and is now pending in the other branch of Congress. We are in hopes that the Presidcut will not veto this bill, especially as it has been amended in the House. Some of those who proftsi to speak f r him are its warm advocates. Should he sign it, then the colored people will stand before the people as loyal and as constitutional citizens, and the local courts of the insurrectionary districts will be restrained by the strong arm of national law whenever they may attempt te be oppressive or partial. Follow this by passing the amendment of the national Constitution prohibiting the paymeut of all rebel debts. Then place upon the road of popular ratification Senator Wade's amendment limiting the President to tingle term. If Congress and the executive could unite upon these really easy and practical remedies, other reforms wo lid speedily follow. According to the President's last assurance to C jm. Howard he proposes to continue the Freedmen's Bureau some of the features of which are far more objectionable than those complained of in his veto of Mr. Trumbull's bill for another entire year, before the end of which time should the above propositions be carried by the present Congresseither the colored population of the Southern States will ba in such a condition as not to require extra official guardianship and restraint, or else the one year may be extended into another. Nor do we despair that when this much is agreed upon the important subject of suffrage will remain a bone of contention between the sections. Not to speak of it in a revengeful or a reproachful sense, the great anti-slavery sentiment, has again proved its ponderous and preponderating power. The Southern people, as well as all political aspirants, must know, if they consult their own hearts, that no experiment, no project and no hope, general or individual can ecer prevail that seeks to cheat or check that sentiment. These miy be called the organic features of a grand remedial and reconciling system. They may be rapidly followed by a series of consistent legislative enactments for instance, a bill equalizing soldier's bounties. "Give," says a valued and distinguished correspondent, "to each veteran a one hundred dollar five per cent twenty year bond and to those who enlisted in lSGl-b'i, for three years, a one hundred and sixty acre land warrant besides. To those who enlisted in lb63, give an eighty acre land warrant. The quarter section being worth two hundred, and the eighty acre section one hundred dollais each. Something like this would satisfy the brave boys who whipped the traitors in the South, and ai e needed to ' whip the Copperheads in the North and West." "And." adds our correspondent, "the interest on the bouda will never be felt,' and twenty yean hence the principal will be lost or forgotten in a population of seventy-five millions of inhabitants." Paso the bill reported by Hon- James C. Blaine, of the House, assuming in part the local war debt of the States, and cities, and counties. These war debts are severely felt in multitudes ef localities. It will be far easier for the General Government to take care of one hundred and twenty millions of this debt pti the fire per c.ent twenty year bonds, than for the people in their local capacities; besides, we make the rebels pay their 'h;? of the treasure spent to save the Union f: n run. . .. . Tili kioJoflegWatiou, with an export tax of -

four or five cents per pound on cotton, and such a revision of the internal revenue laws as will ease those systems where they operate opressively on theindutry of the people will create a whirlwind of enthusiasm in every part of the country, North and South, that will obliterate fiction, restore confidence, and give u a country strong enough to feed all our millions. and to fight the rmbattlvd world beside.

A Safe Promise The Herald promises that the interets of the State will never suflcr at the hands ot Mr. Ryan, its candidate for Treasurer. It can safely give that pledge, for the interests of the State will not be committed to his charge. The peeple propose to elect to that oflice General Nathan Kimbill, the only mac whoever defeated Stonewall Jacksom in battle. While Kimball was fighting the enemies of the Union. Rtan was at home, whining about usurpation and tyranny, and voting for the bitterest enemies of the Government and the sol diers. Indiana has no offices to give to such men Ind. Jour. Soldier's Homilies. According to a telegram from Washington, the House Committee on Public Lands recently reported adversely to granting land bouutits to sol ders. But while thus reporting they are very em phatic in demanding the equalization of bounties in money. They say the amount required lor such equalization has been much over-stated; but wliat ever it may be, they insist upon pajmcnt. They put asidcas unworthy of the country the plea o national poverty in view of our goundless resources as developed by our war of four rears. They say that with the soldiers there was no task too great, no sacrifices too large. 110 duty too arduous no hardships too severe; but with an alacrity that marked their earnestness in the cue, they cheer fully. responded to every order, claiming no otlcr shield than the consciousness that their banners were tho emblems of liberty, justice, and of truth. The Committee insists that the prayer of these men who protected law raikers of the capitol du ring the war, ana saved the country from de truction, must neither be denied nor evaded, where they only ask the nation for justice, and thev ask the reference of the petition to the Committee on Military Affairs, with a recommendation that that Committee report a bill for the equalization 0 bounties in money, or by the issue of bonds of the Lmted States for the purpose. A Sad, Short Story. Three or four years apo, a farmer, who lived near this city, and owned a quarter section af good land, who had alwavs been hiphly eteeroed, sur prised his friends by selling his farm and going into the whiskey business in town. Soon afterwards he bought a Saloon at Indianapolis. A few weeks a jo he was here and certain circumstances gave ri?e to the suspicion that he was enraged in a dishon orable business. Yesterday, a letter came from Kentucky asking if friends here desired t render him aid, paying that he was under arrest for paesin counterfeit money. The gradation downward has been regular and rapid. Wine, women, crime. The story is .hört and sad. We mention no names. It is not necessary. Our readers recognise the party. He has relatives here who are among our very be?t citizens, high-toned, honorable, goodKokomo Tribune. Myriads of mice have made their appearance this spring in Ohio. The till gr.tss that cover the fields has riven protection to them, and they have come forth thi spring increased in numbers a thouiind fold. Tbey have attacked the fruit trees in some sections, and destroyed over five thousand trees. They are so thick that in parsing through the fields in some places they scatter before you in every direction. Lovelv.cmii At a late public ball in Vienna, an ollicer became entangled by the crinoline of his paitner.and faüing, broke one of his leg; the lady lolling over him in her turn, fell on the other leg and fractured it likewise. icw Advertisement.
