WORTHY OF PATRONAGE. - Mr..
Frank Schnurpus, a member of the
Grant Artillery, who was seriously in
jured some weeks ego by the premature
discharge of the cannon, at Baby
town, is, we are glad to see, out again,
though still feeble and unable to
work. Having sick wife and child
rem depending on him for support,
he has undertaken to sell coal on or
ders for one of our coal dealers, and we
cordially commend him to the kind
ly consideration and liberal patronage
OF the liberal-hearted of the city.
He will call at private houses and
places of business, and hopes to re-
ceive such patronage as will enable
him to support his family until he is
able to get to work again.
We are gratifed to learn that be-
nevolent people of the city have made
liberal contribution to him, which
has relieved himself and family from
pressing want. For this he feels deep
ly grateful, and tenders his warmest
thanks; but he desires to do some
thing to support himself and family
and has resolved to selling coal or
commission. Patronize him.

Yesterday boy about
Is wears old, was arrested by the
police force on charge of collecting
money for hauling wood belong ing to
his father. Last night the father had
a consultation with his son in prison,
the result of which is not known to
the reporter of this paper. The young
man had collected about $40 of his
fathers money, and then proposed to
make tracks, but the father was the
wiser of the two, and showed the boy
a trick of which he had no know
ledge.

THE DEBATE.-We give full ac-
count of the joint debate between
Governor Baker and Senator Hen
bricks at Rockport, on the second
page. The Republicans who went up
from this city to hear the discussion
are enthusiastic over Governor Ba-
ker's success. The great Democratic
giant who was to demolish Republi-
canism in Indiana has met with more
than a match in our distinguished
townsman, and will be ingloriously
defeated by the people at the polls on
the 18th inst.

Thursday evening, quite number of
the lst Indiana Cavalry called on
Governor Baker at the Spencer

before yesterday to Mr.. Ed. Martin,

been committed in Louisville, and
that the parties were on board the

ed with the collection of money. The
father of young Fowler was engaged
in sprinkling the streets at Louisville,
and had entrusted to his son the col

ANOTHER GUERRILLA OUTRAGE.
1t will be remembered that few
weeks ago, Republican pole was cut
down not far from West Franklin.
Certain circumstances justified the
belief that the perpetrators of this
cowardly act had crossed the river
from Kentucky, but as it was done in
the dark, like all the works of the
vile, it is just as likely to have been
done by sneaking Indiana Demo
crat.
Since then, Mr.. John Stephens, a
merchant of West Franklin, desiring
to throw his banner to the breeze,
and being warned by the above ex-
ample, took the precaution to raise
his flag staff on the tsp of his house.
On Wednesday night he received a
note couched in the cabalistic
language of the Ku Klux Khan,
ordering him to haul down his flag OF
it would be torn down. The missive
was signed. K. K. K" This is q
sample of what we may expect to be
of frequent occurrence should the
Seymour and Blair Democracy. by
any accident, succeed to power. Ii
will be just as easy and just as lega
for the President to declare the con.
stitution and laws of Indiana protect
ing the rights of Union men, revo.
lutionary, null and void" as to de-
clare the reconstruction laws of Con-
gress null and void.

Congress Swears not to Yield,

Thcre,is no surcr SIGN of u sinkino

until victory is achieved. The House
Of Representatives, upon the motion of
Mr.. Benjamin of Missouri, swears that
it will take no step backwards, and that
thcro is no necessity to repeal the recon.
struction acts. We have maintained
that Congress would not probably repeal
those acts; but this defiant, air, this boil
stcring mp OF courage by resolutions,
suggests suspicion. The country has
condemned the reconstruction acts-the
impeachment has failed --,lcW party
lines are being drawn with reference to
the Prcsidcncy-and yet Congress re.
solves to maintain a position in defiance
OF the pn6llc ccnsnre; a position de-

Upon inquiry yesterday, We learn

tho farm laborors, or in other
words, the colorod people, were very

But there is ono thing that We learn

was, that tho cotton crop for this year.
will not be worry largo. 1t must not

comes from the whole District, for We
have made only partial inquiry. But

have determined to make provisions.
