Beg The Indianapolis Journal speaks
rather contemporary of the great meet
ing of the Democratic State Central
Committee on the Sth of January, in
whose deliberations the Democracy all
over the State were invited to partici.
pate. We copy its notice as follows:
The Democratic Juuta, whrch digni-
fies itself by the title of "Central Com
mittee," which body was the celebrated
author of a celebrated address to the
"Great Unterri6ed," during the days of
the Sons of Liberty, met in this city
we believe, ct the Office of Hon. j. E.
Mcdonald. The business before them
was to see what spirit could be made
to pass over the dry bones of Democra-
cy, SO as to give them life
The chairman, after reviewing at some
length the terrible and hopeless defeats
the ''time-houored" had suffered in the
last five years, even to the very State of
New Jersey, enunciated three several
and distinct times: "Can these dry bones
liver No answer being made, jrdg-
ment By default was entered. The Com
mittee decided to convene macs meet
ing of their party on the 18th Of March
proximo, but could not select place of
meeting. If there is no election between
this and then we think some suitable
room in one of our hotels could be en-.
gagged for the occasion.

SUMMARY OF COMMON PLEAS CoURT
PRoCEEDINGs.-Since our last report,
the following cases have been tried be-
fore the Court of Common Pleas, now in
session:
Joseph Kahn cS Israel Kahn was tried
by the Court day before yesterday, and
resulted in judgment for the plaintiff
for $472 90. A motion was made for a
new trial, but it was overruled, and the
defendant then prayed an appeal to the
Supreme Court. NJ. S. johnson argued
the case for the plaintiff, and Dyer &
Shackleford for the defendant.
Thompson a. Lyon Us John j. Wat.
son, replevin suit; judgment was rem
dered by default against the defendant
in the sum of $500, and order of the
sale of the steamer Ada Lyon, the prop
erty in controversy, which was replevied
by the Sheriff last month, and released,
the plaintiff not filing the bond required
by the Sheriff. 1t is supposed that it
will require another lawsuit to settle the
difficulty.
The Court decided that an instrument
of writing not properly stamped with a
revenue stamp may be so legalized at
any time before such instrument is adj
mitted as evidence.
The case of VIM. Rahin ct al Us.
Crawford & Brandies, was commenced
day before yesterday, and tried by jury,
and the trial is still in progress 1t will
probably be day or two before the case
is argued and submitted to the jury.
Col DENLY and Judge IgIehart are for
the plaintiff, and Marsh and Col. Jones
are for the defense. xrfa

A PLEASANT Administering before
last Prof. Benin, of Commercial College
notoriety, was made the recipient of a
beautiful gold vest-chain, presented him
BY the students of that popular institu-
ton. The Professor was taken com
pletely by surprise, but it was an agree
able one to him. We called on him at
the College yesterday, and upon entering
the room, we observed that he was look
ing exceedingly pleased, though most
actively engaged in giving instructions
to his numerous students. Such token
of regard, coming from his students,
will form a green spot on memory's page
for Prof Benin, and we know OF no one
who would be more likely to fully appre'
ciate such token of regard than him

BOYS AND HoME.--We cannot help
believing that higher state of morals
and better behavior is attsinsble for
our lads, than they manifest on many
occasions. Fighting, profanity and rude
ness often exhibited by them on our
streets. Frequently, you are compelled
to hear from them, while passing along
the streets, the vilest expressions. That
there is enough of this to be quite
offensive, we think none will question.
What is the remedy Is it not posi-
BILE to control the associations of our
boys so as in great measure to prevent
this 2 Cannot they be kept from spend
ing hours together on the streets, espe-
cially after nightfall 2 In order to dc
this, must home be made kind Of pris-
on TO them ? Ii so, it were almost az
well to let them go, taking their chances
for the formation of character when
they choose. Home, with its attrac-
tions must be the remedy.
To be able to entertain the boy at the
Preside during the evening hours, and
to keep him at cheerful employment, OF
innocent play in the daytime, will save
him to observation-disclosures, usefulness,
and morality.
A new, entertaining book, family
sociability, occasional opportunities to
meet his friends under proper circum.
stances, the means necessary for FIRE.
side games and plays, may be of meal
culable advantage to him. In short,
the recognition of his boyhood, and the
exuberance of his feelings must be kept
in mind, if we would successfully direct
him. Would it not be wisdom and econ
omy on the part of parents, whose boys
are restless under restraint, to nnder-
take the furnishing of amusement and
occupation at home. that shall be more
agreeable than the street affords? The
question is one for all parents,-and it
is time for them to be concerned in this
matter, when their boys are from home,
and they know not where they are.
