BEAUTY OF BACoN's 1OUTH.--He would
love. and deserve 10 win love: for even In
the flush of his life he had none of the
vices of young men. If weak on the score
of dress and pomp, if he doated, like a
girl, on flowers, on scents, on gay colors,
on the trappings OF horse. he neither
drank nor gained. nor ran wild and loose
in love-. Though armed with the most
winning ways, and the most glazing lip in
London. no husbands peace was ever
hur: by him, no woman's fame was drag
ged by him into the mre. He sought no
victories like those of Blount He brought
no shame, like Raleigh, to the cheek of
one who loved him more than her own
good name. No Lady Rich, as in Sidney's
case, ever
''Dlushcd when he was named"
His life was pure as that Of Milton, or
that of Pascal, though, unlike the poets of
Paradise and The PanseeS. he lived in a
court where gallantry was in vogue and
beauty was bought and sold. How, then,
with all these friends, with all these claims
on love and help, did he not win his way
to place? lie sought il; never man with
more haste or zeal, for his brain beat with
victorious consciousness of power; he
to rule mankind, and his blood
had that fiery strength with which glows
into white heat at an imposing blast. This
question must be tried. Why, while men,
with far lower claims than his. got posts
and honors-- -solicitorships. judgeships,
secretaryships, embassies--did this man
come to pass the ripe age of forty-six
without gaining power or place? Can it
have been because he was servile and cor
rupt? Ifso, logic is a lie, moral theories
q shame.

B|Mr. Boffandick, the Census taker,
has informed the Enquirer that the popula-
tion of this city is only 1920 souls. The
Enquirer thinks there is an error either in
this return or that of Mr.. Patrick Burke,
taken three years ago, which made our pop
ulatlon $4,000. 1t does look singular that
Evansville has increased in population only
229 people in three years
There is an error with one of those off
GERS. Evansville has increased not less
than 200 people year, for the last three
years. Anybody knows this to be true
who has witnessed the growth of the place
Would it not be a good idea for the City
Council to have special census taken by

! nea "We understand that Col. Henry ).
! Lane declines to continue the joint discus
/ sions with Hon. T. A. Hendricks over
! this State When Col. Lane was nomlna-
! ted for Governor, his friends vauntlngly
! hoasted that AIR. Hendricks was no match
| for their champion and would not dare to
meet him. But they soon found out their
| error. Hendricks was not only willing to
canvass the State jointly, but was eager to
meet the great leader of the Republican
forces. They met, and at every encounter
Hendricks worsted his antagonist. So COM
pletely was Col Lane over-reached that at
the close of the joint appointments he de-
clined to continue them. The Republicans
have been thoroughly astonished at the abil-
! ity displayed upon the stump by Nr. Hen
bricks as public debater. We regard his
success at the October election by majority
of 10000 votes as a fixed fact. BY the
way we should like to know when Judge
Turpie and his competitor intend paying a
visit to the Southern part of the Pocket ~
Enquirer.
Col. Lane, early in the campaign, started
on tour along the Ohio, on his own ac-
count, as it was the agreement that the
joint appointments were not to commence
until after the Conventions. Mr.. Hen
bricks insisted on accompanying him, fear
ing to trust him in "The Pocket" alone.
They came together. Hendricks was no
match for Lane, as everybody acknowledge
ed except Hendricks's friends. Hendricks
s'wrung in - on Lane, and Lane made him
sick of the job. The Enquirer says Hen
bricks over-reached " Lane. So he did
Over-reaching means doing an unfair trick
We have not heard that Col. Lane has de-
Glued to continue the joint discussion with
Mr.. Hendricks The meaning the Enquirer
intends to convey by its article is that Lane
is afraid to meet Hendricks. That idea is
simply absurd, as all who have heard the
two gentlemen will say. If Col. L. has de-
clined further joint appointments, which we
don't believe, the reason is because he knows
that if he should accept he would be kept
out of the Southern portion of the State
where his services are most needed. He
don't want any more smart tricks-any
more " over-reaching ng'-played upon him.
In regard to Judges Morton and Turpie,
it is understood that since their late joint
tour, there is not even grease spot left of
Turpie. Judge Mortons inexorable logic,
bad spirits, and worse Locofocoism have
about used him up. We doubt not that
Judge Morton is ready at any time to can
vass these lower counties with his antago-
mist. Let Judge I. name his time and it
will be responded to.

JUDGE DEBRULER was in the City yester-
day morning. He came down to take the
train for Princeton to attend court, and
make some speeches iD Gibson county, but
having labored and travelled very hard for
the past few weeks he was not well when
he started, and when he arrived here was
so ill that he was obliged to return home.
The Judge will endeavor to recuperate his
health this week, and next week will make
some speeches in Posey county. On Mon
day he will address the people of Mt Yer
non, and on Tuesday those of New Harmo-
ny, on political topics. Other appointments
will be made for him soon in that county.
The week following that which he intends
to devote to Posey, he will canvass Knox
county. We hope his friends will get large
audiences out to hear him.

THE RGsKvILLE RoAD.-The last number
of the Parke County Republican referring
to the progress of this important enterprise
says: " We saw a letter from Mr.. Rose,
now in New York, to Gen. Steele, saying
that all the rails, spikes and chairs for the
entire road to this place have been purchas-
ed, and that the whole of them will be in
Terre Haute as soon as they can be freight
ed. The grade below the county line can
be completed as fast almost as a company
can lay down the iron, and on this side of
the county line the grade is almost complet-
ed, excepting some repairs and the filling OF
few gaps.
1t is confidently believed that the cars
will be here by the commencement of cold
weather. Subscribers of stock may begin
to arrange for the payment of their subscrip-
tions-which we know will be done with a
hearty good will"-T II. Jour.

Eg"The Democratic papers think that
Wide Awake organizations, Glee Clubs,
torch light professions, immense mass meet
ings, and such instrumentalities to work off
surplus enthusiasm, constitute I" -foolery
such as characterized the campaign of 1S4O."
We don't wonder that they don't like
these things. They didn't admire them
during the Harrison campaign, principally
because they were not able to get up such
demonstrations themselves. This "tom-
foolery was " sour grapes" to the Locos !;
and so it is now. One Democratic paper
says:
These may be first rate for producing excite
ment, but the people in this canvass will
only be influenced by the calm and dispas-
sionate discussion of the principles of the
twop parties on questions of national policy.
The Republicans can drst get up the ex-
citement, and then they can satisfy the rea-
son, both. Their opponents can do neither
The latter are seeing too much enthusiasm
and reason on our side, to suit their views
Hence they growl like " bear with a sore
/ head"

THE grading of the Evansville and Craw-
fordsville railroad extension northward from
Terre Haute is progressing rapidly. In
fact it is nearly all done. The building OF
the bridges and culverts is also going on
With commendable speed. Gen. Steele, who
has the building of the road in charge,
keeps his quarters at Terre Haute. He
looks considerably bronzed from exposure
to the sun during the scorching weather OF
summer. 1t is thought by some that a
union depot will be built at Terre Haute
when this extension is completed. Such a
building is badly needed in the Prairie City,
