Iesby, OF Illinois, Organizing Radical
Secret Political Societies.
INDIANAPOLIS, August 8.-Notwithstan-
ding the terribly afflicted condition Of Gov
ernOr Morton, he is in d remarkably good
condition for paralytic, and is canvassing
the State for the Radicals. His speeches are
able and venOmOus, but DO not carry the
same weight as formerly
vassing the State. EGe is obscene ana
abusive His mission is to organize lodges
of q new secret political order, known as
the Grand Army of the Republic. The
order is spreading rapidly, and it is feared
will make serious trouble, if not blOodshed
and revolution. It has all the obiectiona-
ble features Of the Sons of Liberty and
Nothings.
A counter organization has been talked
of among the Democracy but the more
considerate of the leaders have discouraged
the idea, having seen enough of secret pO-
itical organizations.
The negroes, not to be outdone, have or
ganized secret military association, and
are drilling nightly. They number be-
tween five and six hundred able-bodied
men in this city, and, encouraged by Radi-
Gals, mean mischief. Similar colored as
sociations, all possessing muskets, are be-
ing formed over the State. Altogether
matters look favorable for interference in
elections and bloodshed.

GAS IN THE CAPIToL.-Last night our
State capitol was lighted up, for the first
time, with gas. Quite an array of loveliness
gathered there, doubtless, to enjoy the So
| ciety Of the chera!ieT most admired, and re-
fleet back the gaseous brightness from the
dazzling splendor of their own diamond
! eyes Upon the whole, tout ensemble, it
was handsome and brilliant illumination
! the most lustrous of which was the optics
of the fair daughters OF Raleigh, who were
present. There were AZ burners in full glow
and from every door and window in the
capitol issued a stream of light not to be
excelled by the largest bonfres, and as it
issued forth new steam of light went
gushing through our hearts reminding us
that this was an age of progress and enter
prise.-RdI. Progress, 25tt inst.
A WARNING.-We are credibiy informed
that parties are still at work in this State,
gathering up horses said to belong to the
United States, usingthe name of Capt. A.
NJ. Garoutte as authority. He has had no
such agents for months, and is himself to-
tally disconnected with the army. Our
friends in the country should, therefore,
pay no attention to the demands of such
pretended agents.
MANNED SOLDIERS. is not q day
that numbers of disabled citizens, who lost
limbs in the late struggle, may not be seen
upon our streets. Their congregation here,
to avail themselves of the merited munifi-
cence of the State in supplying them with
artificial limbs, brings forcibly to mind
again the horrors Of the war, while, at the
same time, their mutilated condition at
tests their own personal valor ard heroism.
May the day be far distant when We shall
cease to have open hearts or open hands for
them !-.Se1atineL.
MURDER IN HALIFAX CoUNTY.-Two ne
groes got into an alteration a few days

By the cry of fire, this morning between

A LII MEN OF EDUCATION and reflection
n should ponder well upon the advantages of
Life Insurance, and should promulgate their ac
quired knowledge throughout the whole circle of
their acquaintance. They should remember that
it recommends itself in many instances, not mere
ly as measure of eXpediency, but bounden
a moderate sum. The question is shall the mar
ried man trust the comfort of his family to a
chance ?-albeit promising one; or is he net
rather bound to make sure of provision, far
as lie can for his wife, his children, his helpless
relations, for all those dependant upon him for
support and through the medium of Life Insu-
rance, assure an adequate provision again i'm
pending poverty and irretrievable distress How
,-~.en have heard say: Yes, butt want to
insure Tor large sum when do insure, and it is
not convenient now'' And so, because the man
cannot crafty his vanity and pay the premium on
$40, 000, he dies and leaves his wife and child
hou. eless, sorrow-strcken and broken hearted,
thrust on the cold kindness of quasi charitable
relations, without cent to bury him provide
food for themselves. And this because he, the
loving and devoted husband, would not make
even a temporary provision, consonant with his
nurse in Sickness his friend in distress, and whom
he had sworn to cherish and protect, and by the
payment of S75 or $780, secure many thousands
Strange That man, who hwes to his wife the chief
chain of his existence, the every day comfort of
his life should be able to look heartessly to that
period when their last parting shall take place.
when removed to that world, where to him, all is
hope and consolation he shall have wilfully left
in darkness and desolation, stepped in poverty
and Indebtedness, to struggle with the hard JUS
tice of hard hearted world. Resorting to Life
Insurance is risking nothing, but truly securing
certain profit upon that Which is, at all times, an
uncertain event.

In the Constitutional Convention, on the

Waul, Ireland, and Runnells three unpar-

tanned that the State had right to secede in
1851. In a speech made by Waul, he de-
clared that the people of Texas had been
marching to such other music of late that
they would not submit to everything that
was asked of them. Mr.. Ireland also re-
marked that they (the rebels) would have to
girt on their swords and go to the assistance
of President johnson. Many of the Union
