We had hoped, for the sake of our suffer-
ing country, that the admitted ability, eX-
perience, and patriotism of Mr.. Guthrie
would make him an exception to the rule
of extreme partisanship which has pre-
vailed in the Senate of the United
States in the formation of its stand
ing committees. So much virtue, how
ever, could not come from party,
based on "moral IDEAS" which had selected
Andrew johnson to be its foremost and rep
resentative man in the Senate, and there
fore we find the clearest-headed financier in
the land at the tail of every committee on
which he is placed. Mr.. Guthrie has been,
by the dominant party in the Government,
not only put last on the committee on FL
nance, but last on the committee on Agri-
culture, Patents, and Mines. What better
and more conclusive illustration could be
given of the end and aim of those who made
Mr.. Lincoln to be President for second
term, and, as if that were not national dis
grace enough (for when the mysteries of
the White House are unfolded there will
be developed in the Executive Mansion acts
of theft and plumber quite as disgraceful to
persons high in position as were the drunk
en- antics OF the Vice President), made john
son to be second in honor?
If the chief desire of the Republican
ledueTS is w udke SOOu OOVerHmenl- Gueu
no one can doubt what position would be
assigned statesman of the age, wisdom,
and mental power of the Senator from Ken
lucky. ,1s
All this attempted humiliation of Mr..
Guthrie is of no consequence to him as an
individual, but it is of national consequence.
He asks no odds of any man. He can fight
and win his own way in any arena where
integrity, courage, and ability carry the
day. Wherever he goes, he is magnet,
and central point for all honest men. He
will be such in the Senate. Partisan ma
lignity may endeavor to weaken his infiu-
ence, but in the end, everybody will see
that whithersoever his great figure moves,
that way honor and national safety ie.--
World.

Spotted Fever in Indiana.

The spotted fever is very prevalent in
Palestine, Ind, proving fatal in almost eve
ry case, and creating more alarm than the
cholera. The sudden attack upon the brain
and nervous systematic very handspring
of life-and the inability of the medical
OF the disease, invest it with mystery and
terror, such as was attributed to the plague
of olden times. This terrible malady is
also raging with fatal effect in the vicinity
of Rosedale, on the line of the railroad be-
tween Terre Haute and Rockville. Several
deaths from the disease occur daily within
the infected neighborhood.
