TO be enabled to accommodate the hundreds

by far the largest and most complete stock
of Ready made Clothing ever manuiactu-
red by any one house. From the many
advantages | possess, | am confident IN
asserting that my goods are manufactured
at fhuch lower prices than any other house,
and am determined TO sell them at such
low prices as TO defy any and
ALL COMPETITION.
Ny Spring stock has all been bought for
cash and manufactured by myself in the
city of New York, and having paid great
attention to the cut and fit, viii make my
stock one of the most desirable ever offer
ed in any city in the Union. ! am conf
dent that can give you as good fit as a.
ny tailor, and cut in the latest ard most
fashionable style.
Merchants throughout the West, want
ing Clothing, at any time by ordering and
enclosing the amount, will have it attend
ed to strictly with every care and correct
ness, and forwarded by the first opportu-
nifty.
The great variety my stock will consist
of this Spring, will be far superior to any
otherpreviouS season, and as regards price
and quality. will be at least l5 or 30 per
cent. cheaper than ever before offered
The great amount of business have been
doing, (and hope by strict attention to con-

customers and strangers visiting 81. Louis,
much greater inducements than any other

My desire is TO increase my sales, and
by doing so can afford TO sell you ct a We

LETTER FROM THE EDITOR.
INDIANAPOLIS, Thursday Night,
December Ia. 1878.

To THE JUNIoR.-I informed you BY tele-
graph to-day that Governor Whitcomb had
been elected on the first ballot to the u. States
Senate for six years from the 18th of March
next. He received rs votes, just the number
TO elect-Mr. flanagan 10 votes, and Caleb
b. Smith 50 votes, and there were some six or
eight scattering All the members were pre-
sent except the Senator from Warren, who is
a wing. His vote would have prevented the
election at the first trial and which might pos
sibly have beaten the Governor, as hear il adj
mitied by locofocos that he could not have got
the same vote again. | am not sorry, for one,
that flanagan is beaten, and would rejoice
had any other than the successful candidate
succeeded him. have seen and heard enough
to know that Governor Whitcomb is the most
ultra, intriguing, selfish locofoco within oul
borders, and cannot feel pleased that he i:
fastened upon The u. S. Senate for six years.
Our Rail Road Bill was reported to the Sen,
ate this morning by the committee without
amendment, and time being asked by Mr.. FL.
lis TO examine il, il was laid on the table. The
friends of the bill will, think, move to take
IT up OH tomorrow or next day, and have nc
doubt it will pass that body. In the House,
however, fear there will be opposition TO it.
Several of the membe rs from our portion of the
State are fearful that il will be viewed as in
terlering with our canal. and its friends have
had great difficulty in removing their obec,
lions 10 il; Notwithstanding believe it will
pass.
A Bill was introduced in the House to-day
asking for a charter for a rail road from Terre-
Haute TO our city. Ii is the same bill that was
introduced last winter and which was defeat
ed, and this, doubt not, will share similar
fate. Mr.. Wolf. from Sullivan county, was

STEAM PASSAGE To CALIFoRNIA.-As the Cal
ifornia gold fever seems 10 be all the rage, we
extract the following from the 81. Louis Re
publican:
Many inquiries are made of us in relation 10
the pa ssage, by steamers, to California, to which
we are unable satisfactorily TO reply. A line
of steamers has been constructed, under the
patronage of the United States Government,
10 run between Panama and ports in Central
America, Mexico and California. One of them,
the California, Of $50 tons burthen, is alrea-
dy in her station, and the others have sailed
from New York. The California will leave
Panama for California OH the 9Th of January;
the Parama on the 5th of February, AMI the
Oregon on the LIST of March. Thereafter they
will leave the first of every month. The pri-
ces of passage, in state rooms, from Panama 10
Realeio, 700 miles, is Sol; from same port to
Acapulco, 800 miles, 1925; to San Bias OF
Mazatlan, 1000 miles, Sl75; TO San Diego. g.
900 miles, 1925; and to San Francisco, $500
$3.50. Passage in the lower cabin at a deduc-
ton of one-fillh Of these rates; and the forward
cabin TO either OF the ports named, $780,
Passengers can take personal baggage, freight

fceeding half ton measurement, for EACH
FTclSHl OIL tACcSs, duu all Otilcf ROOus, GU pei
ton, aud | per cent. on specie. Packages
should not exceed $50 lbs weight for mule car
rage.
A line has been established. also under the
patronage Of the Government, to run from
New York To New Orleans, and thence 10 Cha
gres; touching al Havana. The passage from
New Orleans TO Chagres, is 500 in the saloon
and in the lower cabin $50. Passengers on
this line are charged freight on every thing ex.
cept wearing apparel, and this is not TO ex.
coed $50 lbs. Other freight to be charged &C
cents per foot.
We have no means Of estimating the cost
of the overland part of the route, but extrava
CANT rates are necessarily paid. The distance
across the Isthmus, from Chagres to Panama
is thirty eight miles, by most difficult route
and all transportation of freight isupon mules
1t is a safe calculation, however, for any one
to make, that trip from st. Louis to San
Francisco will cost from $500 to 5000. II
may require longer time, and greater Difficult
ties may be encountered, in the performance
of trip from st. Louis to California. over

years, than by sea, but il can be done with les.

Strange things occur in
these, our times, connected with Sub Treasu-
~ financiering. Things are done every day
to put money into the pockets Of government
officials and their peis, indirectly that honest
men would blush to engage in. The N. York
Tribune speaking Of some recent stock opera
tions ofSecretary Walker, says:
At a time when the Government is receiving
instruments upon a large loan, il is reported
that the Secretary is in the market buying for
l0S per cent. the identical stock which he
daily issues, and!for which he receives a little
over par. Who can fail TO see the corruption
of such a state of things? The chief financial
officer of the Government is reported as buy
ing the debt Of the Gov eminent; and thus en-
HANGING its value and cost, at time when he
pretends the interests of the department will
be subserved by purchases TO be cancelled! Ii
can hardly be possible that the Secretary is
thus engaged in an opera ton as purely stock
jobbing as any that was ever entered into In
Wall street, The effect is TO throw into the
hands Of the takers OF the late loan the differ
ence between its present value and the price
at which they subscribed for il in June. Al
the present time the Secretary is expanding
the money raised for him within few months
and not fully in his possession now. AS the
law authorizes him 10 effect loan, and does
not make il imperative upon him to borrow
the whole amount named, he would serve the
interests OF the de partment quite as well by re-
fusing 10 receive any balance OF that loan, as
by purchasing or l0S per cent. what he sells
for lob per cent.

SHAMEFUL MEANNEss.-When England i'm
prisoned Napoleon, who trusted in the broken
faith of pretended maguanimity, OH the island
of st. Helena, the soul Of every true French
man cursed her for her cowardly meanhess,
and the world echoed with hearty earnestness
their just Indignation. Now, France holds,
as a prisoner ol State, Abdel kadir, who after
bravely defending his countr, as long as he
could muster troops, capitulated on condition
of being sent TO Egypt. Instead of complying
with the terms on which he agreed 10 surrrn-
der, the heartless policy of Louis Philippe
consigned him to French prison, where he
now remains. Does it not become the honor
aud dignity of France to scora the meanness
they scorned in England! May we not hope
the French people will wipe this stain from
their nations lofty honor, by speedy and per
feet execution of the terms of capitulation.-
Such would be a striking proof OF their appre-
citation of The Freedom, 10 the enjoyment oi
which, fortune has just called them.

We admire and praise the flower that best

Mr.. CLAY ANDTHE SENATE.--The following
paragraph is from letter OF the Washington
correspondent OF the Baltimore Sun:
Il have, from the same source, the highly
interesting fact that Henry Clay is 10 return
10 the United States Senate. Mr.. Clay has
himself said that he will be candidate for the
seat made vacant by the resignation of MIR.
Crittenden, and filled temporarily BY the Gov.
ernor's appointment Of Mr.. Metcalf. Every
one will rejoice 10 see ''Old Hal back TO the
place to which he has formerly given so much
grace, dignity and interest"
We have no doubt that, if the General As
sembly of Kentucky should elect MIR. Clay to
the Senate, he would deem it his duty TO fill
the office; but we have good reason to question
whether he "has himself said that he will be q
candidate"
