ONE-ARMEp INGENUITY.

A eorrespondentofthe Indianapolis Jour
nat SAYS. At Pennsylvaniaburg, Ripley
county, Indiana, met a most remarkable
ease of one-armcd ingenuity. Robert Lew
is, youag man without home or kindred,
who had t. earn his bread by hard, daily
labor, early in the war, aud at the m;nim-
um aye entered the service as n private in
General Spooner's regiment, the Sad Indi-
ana. At the battle of Chickasaw Bluff,
Robert lost his arm Mt the shoulder. After
much suffering he returned IL bis former
home. The loss of an arm only seemed to
impress him with the idea that greater eu-
ergy would be required IL be would make
an honorable living.
He began to study at nigh. and every
leisure moment. Soon he qualified him
self for teaching. About this time he did
what would usually be, under similar cir
eums,auces, very foolish thing--he got
married. But his wife accepted the situa-
ton, and was willing to laugh at poverty
aud help her husband 20 earn bis bread.
lie taught school il the winter, aud in
the summer began 10 build house. i
was through bis house q day or two ago

architecture, ami is neat aud substantial

the work Was done by this one-armed man.

two-iuch plank
lie laid the foundations, built the CHM
neys, made the door and SASH short,
! no sound of hammer or any tool was heard
about the building Of that house EXCEPT
| those that were welded by his arm. Let
any one ny t. start "A Temporary nail with
only one hand, AMI he will doubt this sso-
y but strange as it may appear, it is in
every respect true.
Ii would pay ono for trip TO Ripley
county to sc the Ingenious devices of Rob
ert Lewis to make the difficult work for n
two armed man easy of Accomplishment by
, one-armcd soldier. At the time | was
there he was completing baby wagon,
! which would compare with the neatest Of
those sold in the market.

RADICAL PRoGRAMME-The National
Latelligsncer says that the second session
Of the Fortieth Congress will convene in a
few weeks, and their various political COM
lnittecs are preparing, it is said, 20 make
such reports as may be thought e1pedient
for the purposes of their party.
The work for the session has already been
carved out by the party leaders, who have
been busily engaged of late in promulgat-
ing the party programme, and debating the
order Of the performance. The House is to
pass Immediately billrogulating impeach-
ments, by which it viii be provided that a
ny public officers impeachcd shall be liable,
upon an order Of the Senate, to arrest, i'm
Irisonment, and suspension from the excr-
else Of official functions. This Till is to be
passed. Of course, by a two-thirls majority
il both Houses. The House will then pre-
sent articles impeachment, founded upon
the allegation that the President IS politi-
cally opposed to them, and Senator Wade,
President pro tenn of the Senate, will sue
cecd him.
The Senate is to send the suspended Sec
rotary Of War, Mr. Stanton, back TO the
War Office forthwith Senator Wilson will
bring forward his bill to establish negro
suffrage by congressional order in all the
States aud as nearly every State will re.
rist it, Senator Wilson Is to introduce a bill
for raising five hundred regiments Of black
troops to enable President Wade to execute
tic law
Several additional bounty bills, oppropri-
aGng from fifty to four hundred millions
each, for the purchase Of soldiers votes,
and the influence Of bounty agents, will be
then passed. The ujject Of reconstruction
will be closely considered, aud something
attempted to insure and carry out Senator
Wilson' assertion, that seven. eight. or ten
of the excluded States shall send Radical
Senators and Representatives TO Congress
sal also supper. the Radical candidate for
the Presidency Sheridan and Sickles arc
to be sent back to the posts from which they
have been relieved.
The session Is to continue I'm March 4th
1869; that is, until the new Radical Pres
idcnt shall be nauguraJeJ
Such is the programme Of tAe Radical
leaders for the coming session.

cations Of the churches to determine by the
votes of their members, 70 which division of
the Church they would attach themselves ;
that such action, upon the approval of the
Judge ofthe Circuit Court, should be spread
upon the minutes of the court, and that the
same should vest the tide to and the control
and use Of the property in that division of
the Church for which the majority Of the
members cast their votes IN oycrwhclm-
ing majority of the votes Il tie several con-
gregations in Rockingham were cast. Of
