TO THE PEOPLE OF INDIANA

In the progress OF events. this
wicked and unnatural rebellion,
having FOR its object the overthrow
Of our Government, and the sub
version OF our institutions, has
extended into our neighboring
State OF Kentucky. On several
occasions within the last few
months the people OF Kentucky,
by overwhel ming majorities, have
declared their loyalty to the I'm
ION, and their determination to adj
here to the Constitution. There
is, however, within her borders a
desperate and factious minority
who are determined, at all haz-
ards, to plunge the State into rev.
olutiOn and all the horrors of civil
war.
To this end they have inaugu-
rated a reign OF terror, and throw
ing off ali restraints OF law, pro
claim a war of destruction and
desolation against the lives and
property of all loyal and Union
loving citizens.
In this atrociouS attempt to CO.
cree a loyal State into rebellion,
they are aided by large bodies Of
armed men from Tennessee and
other seeding States. These
rebel troops have entered the State
from the southeast through Cum
berland Gap, from the southwest
occupying Columbus and other
points, but chiefly from the dlrec-
ton OF Nashville toward Louis
vile, scizing and holding the
Nashville & Louisville Railroad
up to within forty miles of Lou
isville. A glance at the map will
show the immense importance of
their position, and the advantages
they have gained. From their
camps south oil Louisville they
can communicate by Railroad
with every seeding State but two;
and can thus transport to their aid
IN a few hours, men and NUM-
tons of war, from every part of
the South. 1t is the determination
of the invaders and conspirators
to subiuglte the loyal people OF
Kentucky, and seize for plumber
and vengeance the wealthy and
populous cities on the border Of
Ohio and Indiana.
Il should require no argument
or appeal now to arouse the peo-
pie OF Indiana to put forth all
their strength. When our State
was in her infancy, the brave men
OF Kentucky came to the rescue
Of our people from the scalplng
knife OF the savage, and their
blood is mingled with our soil on
many a field. And shall we not
stand by Kentucky now, in this
her hour of peril? Not to do so,
were base ingratitude and crimi-
nal folly. We can best defend
Indiana by repelling the invader
from Kentucky, and carrying the
war thence to the heart OF the re-
bellious States.
Indiana has already done as
we'll as any other loyal State, and
better than many. Her troops
are to be found in every camp
from the Potomac to the Nilsson
ri, and wherever their valOr has
been put to the test they have been
found equal tc the occasion. But
because other States have not done
their whole duty, 1t would be
worse than madness for us to re-
fuse TO do even more than ours to
crush out this rebellion and bring
about the speedy restoration of

SToPFING REVOLUTIONS BY CoERcIox.-We
were impressed anew, says the New Orleans
Picayune, with the folly Of attempting 20 stop a
popular revolution by eoereiye measures, on
reading, yesterday, the concluding paragraph Of
Macaulay's article in the Edinburgh Review, of
1927. on Hallan's Constitutional History.
History is philosophy teaching by exam
pie" And this passage may be pUndered upon
to advantage by the powers that be-" Qfor the
present. at Washington.
1--WE know Of no great revolution which
might not have been prevented by compromise
early and graciOusly made. Firmness is a great
virtue in public affairs; but il has its proper
sphere Conspiracics and Instructions, in
which small minorities are engaged, The out
breaking popular violence unconnected with any
extensive project or any durable principle, are
best depressed by vigor and decision. To
shrink from them is TO make them formidable.
But no wise ruler will cOnfound the pefvading
faint with the slight local irritation. No wise
ruler viii treat the deeply seated discontents Of
great party as he treats the conduct Of a mob.
The neglect Of this distinction has
been fatal even to governments strong in the
power Of the sword. In all move
ments Of the human mind which tend to great
revolutions, there Is a crisis at which moderate
concession NAV amend, conciliate and preserve.
Happy will it be for England u at that crisis,
her interests be confided to men for whom his
tory has not recorded the long series Of human
crimes and follies in vain"

Windags in Cannolil

In order that a cannon ball may be pushed
down the bore Of a gun; II is necessary TO make
it little smaller than the bore, and this differ
ence in size is called windage The proportion
Of the explosive force of the powder, which is
lost by the gases through this small space, is
surprising to all who are not familiar with the
rapid flow of gases through small openings, I'M
der high pressure. We have known cotton
mill, driven by a steam engine, the cylinder Of
which was - inches in diameter, and feet
long running 60 strokes a minute; the steam
pipe leading from the boiler to the cylinder was
3 inches in diameter, and in this pipe was the
throttle valve connected with the governor; the
usual opening Of this valve was only cae;JourM
Of an inch, and through this narrow space all
the steam flowed 10 iii the cylinder l2O times
per minute! This engine was generally run
with pressure Of about 90 pounds TO the inch,
but the pressure of gases in cannon is some
$4,000 pounds TO the inch, and the rapidity
with which gases flow increases with the press
ure. These facts enable ms to understand the
great loss Of the propelling power of the pow
der by the windagc. This loss always forces
itself upon the attention Of practical artlerists,
and many efforts have been made to prevent it.
In small arms, this Is accomplished perfectly by
swedging the bullet by means Of driver and
mallet into the bore and rulings of the gun,
tOulplctCiN uul AhC t'lSt HoN SiiOl usCu
In cannon cannot be swcdged like soft lcaden
bullet Most Of the inventions which have been
made for the purpose Of preventing the escape
of gases by the windagc, consist in surrounding
the shot with bands of lead, generally to be
pressed out against the sides Of the bore by the
force Of the powder These bands are apt to
fly off from the shot and in the recent fighting
in China, so many Of the British outlying rife
men were killed by the lcaden fragments, that
it was found necessary to withdraw the Arm
strong gun from service, and supply It's place
with the oldfashioncd field pieces
There is an entirely different plan for prevent
ing the loss Of the propelling power of the pow
der by the windage, which might be worth inves.-
tigating-the introduction of some sort Of wad
between the cartridge and the shot which would
be driven forward by the explosion, and pack
the space around the shot For instance, how
would it do TO bend thick piece of inda-rubbcr
hose and cement the ends together, so as to
form smooth ring, about the size of the bore,
and fasten this TO the outer or upper end Of the
cartridgeg Perhaps the ring might be made
thin on the upper side, and filed with water,
so as to burst with the explosion, and wash out
the gun :-.ScieRtife american.

Quit That.

Quit what? Quit telling your innocent con-
fiding children about ghosts and hobgoblins
You are throwing sorrow upon young hearts
that will cling there through life
How many mothers there are who quiet their
children by saying, the "bug-a-boos will come
and take you ofl'-come, old niggar-comc and
well, will you hush up this minutc?"
The poor child believes all its mother tells it.
and why shouldn't its 1t ought to believe
That is its iial duty. The sobbing, fluttering
heart is quoted, but not comforted. Those
fearful eyes close in terror; weary, broken
rest follows; the child dreams-but, oh who
can tell the sadness of child while it dreams
in sleep frightened upon it by alarms of all
that is terrible and repulsive. Such inhuman
Treatment cndangers the mind-the intellect
Mothers, beware. See that no servant or nurse
or elder brother or sister, drives arrows OF grief
10 the very soul Of your child. A sorrow early
planted and watcred by tears will bring forth
a harvest of bitterness and despair.
How common a habit is this TO teach children
to fear unseen dangers at nightfall. The peace
full night, so full of sweetness, the night that
brings the honeyed drops Of dew to bless the
flowers and refresh the leaves-the night that
brings rest to the weary, this dearest time of
all is to be made terrible TO the children. What
wickcdncssl Why, it is blasphemy to make
the little ones believe that God forgets them
and sends tormenters to trouble them in the
silent watches Of the night.
Parents, think of this. See that your chill
dren hear no ghostly lessons. See that they
arc taught to love their ever present Saviour,
and honor his ever blessed name.
How heavenly the teachings of that familiar
hymn, when breathed from true mothers soul
over slecr.ng child
"IIush my babe lie still and slumber
Holy angels guard thy bed"
