Terrible Affair.

The following we clip from letter in tho
indianapolis Journal
/ learn from auditor Pfaf that mosthors
rifying tragedy occurred in the vicinity Of
Peru, Ind. a few days since
The report is that a farmer livinga few
miles from that city, sold his place forS a.
600. and went, late In the afternoon of the
same day on which the sale was made, to
Peru to deposit Arriving after the banks
were closed, he put up at hotel for the
night with the intention OF transacting his
business IN the morning. Two of his neigh
bOrs were with him Sometime after he had
gone to bed and to sleep, he suddenly awoke
In a state Of high mental excitement, aroused
his friends and, informing them he had
presentiment of something wrong IN his
family, declared his intention of going home.
An earnest, persistent remonstrancei how
ever, finally quieted him, and he again went
to sleep. But IN the course of about halt
hour he awole the second time, IN more
excited condition than before, and putting
on his clothes started for home. His Sriends
accompanied him. On reaching his Nous g
ne found the doors locked and heard noise
within Looking through window be saw
his wife and his four childron murdered.
The perpetrators of the bloody deed were
still In the house, ransacking every corner
and receptacle for booty.
The farmer and his friends forced an en-
trance and attacked the murderous freeboot-
ers, four in number, shot three of them dead,
and severely wounded the fourth On being
washed and stripped of disguise, the lTooF d.
ed man proved to be no other than the pur-
chaser Of the farm.

VIII the Radical % Papers Publish
This l.?


Captain Asa Hays, of Henderson county,
is bitterly opposed to the workings of the.
Brownlow party. During the war Captain
Hays commanded company in the Federal
army, and was noted for his soldiery con-
duct and daring achievements, so much so
that his comrades gave him the name of
Black Hawk" and by which he is almost
universally known this day A few days
ago Black Hawk made speech in Lexing-
ton, and took the occasion to tell his friends
and former companions that he was opposed
to Radical and in favor of Conservative
measures. That it was not right to exclude
white men from the polls simply because
they fought the battles of the South; and
intimated that the man who would persecute
& soldier because that soldier had done q
soldiers duty, was no better than a brute
Captain Hays said that he believed the men
who lately composed the Confederate army
were sincere in their professions of peace,
and thathe was willing that every one should
vote who declares his allegiance to the
/ United States Government This is the po-
sition Of d man who faced the "rebels on
many hard fought battle. How different
from the sneaks who kept aloof from the
fight and are now outraging and insultine
the men they never dared to meet in an open
field. VIII the Radical papers make men
ton of this?

What it Costs Uncle Sam to Keen
HOuee

The appropriations voted by the second
session of the Thirty-ninth Congress to pay
for the current expenses of tine Government
during the coming year and to supply the
deficiencies Of the last fiscal period, amount
to the pretty little sum of Sl44,792, ,036 81
The army takes S23, ,88l ,635; the navy, SI6,-
1924; Mr. Seward receives two allow
ances Of $4,000 each for his ABlanbic cable
bills and the Postmaster General gets $20,-
600 worth ef tWine. The Military Academy,
at West Point, is very lfberally provided for
at the expense of S27S,9l3, of which that
eminently useless body, the Board Of Yisi-
tors, consumes $1,000 and another S., 900 Is
applied to an enlargement Of the cadets
laundry, which we would think ought to be
large enough now to keep thatlittle company
Of soldiers as clean as a row Of new pins
The printing Of our government money costs
100000; the management Of loans and
notes cannot be effected for less than 8, 000-
600; and for the detection Of eounterieiteT5
we have bill Of S150,000. Our expensive
old friend, Pub. Doc, dances into the tune
of, 81 ,269, ,l9S which surely ought to make
Congress ashamed of itself Next to the
salary Of Andrew johnson, the charge under
which it strikes US that we get the poorest
equivalent for our money is that of $3l5, sos
for the Department Of Agricultural. The
/ purchase and distribution of seed, which
nobody wants, costs S8D,OOO, and the BOtan-
/ tanical Garden, where Mr. Commissioner
| Newton raises hot house flowers for mem
| bers Of Congress, IS supported at an outlay
/ Of 10, 765 dollars. Ten thousand dollars for
/ bouquets But after all that IS not worse
than the Legislative appropriation Of 10
/ go dollars for horses and CARRIAGES little
I bit Of luxury in which we mistakenly sup
! posed the Common Council Of New i orl
/ were unrivalled
The most bewildering thing Of eli is the
list Of appropriations for keeping our public
officers warm. Here, for an example, We
have 5000 dollars for heating the Supreme
/ Court Room, at West Point; 10000 for heat
ing and ventilating apparatus for the pubiif
buildings, 1000 dollars worth Of ditto Tor th'
library Of Congress; 5000 dollars Of fue
for the White House 200 dollars wortf
Of fuel and lights for Congress; GOO doiiau
for heating the Capitol 1000 dollars To-
fuel at the White HouEe and Capitol How
is Il possible in a single winter 70 eonsum
such enormous quantities of coal, Is pFob
lem quite beyond our comprehension. Their
is an item Of $1,000 dollars for lightning tn
Capitol and White Honse, besides which tb
illumination Of the Rotunda by electriclt
involves an annual expense Of 5000, dollar
and the Government has to pay AZ electr
clan ,200dollars a year to attend toit.

ing singular story IN a letter dated February
25:
About noon last Friday, Naples was star
tied by the sound of an explosion toward
POsihppo, and it was soon known thas the
powder mills there had blown up. OF sixty
three persons who were on the spot at the
time twenty were found dead, eleven woun-
ded, seven unhurt, and the rest nowhere
only mangied frs gments remained of them.
The powder NIL and several houses IN the
neighborhood were overthrown. Forum
ately the store where the powder was kept
after manufacture resisted the shock, other
wise the mischief would have been still
greater. The cause of the explosion Is the
most remarkable part of the affair. The d.
rector of the mills had raised suspicion by
his extravagant expenditure, and it was dis
covered that he Systematically, appropriated
to his own benefit large porticnof the pow
der manufactured a party of police, there
fore, headed by Inspector Nespai paid him
visit, and found ample proofs of his crime.
On seeing that his frauds were discovered,
he found pretext for entering room where
about six quintals of powder were stored,
and setting fire thereto, blew HIMSELF the
police and all else who were near, into eter-
nitv. Public charity has been active IN sub
