THE FEAST FOR THE LOBBY.

The reader may form some idea OF
the magnitude and grandeur of the pro-
gramme of the plunderers at Washing
ton, when informed that there are at
present no less than thirty-one differ
ent projects for the construction of rail-
roads and canals before the Senate, and
thirty-seven before the House, all ask
ing government aid, either in land
grants or guarantee of interest on their
bonds, or both. Some OF them are ri
walls but this fact often renders their
success the more certain. II there is
enough plunder in the combined inter
ests to satisfy the hunger of the lobby
for the time being, they have only TO
unite their forces and the thing is ac-
compli5hed. The Senate bills alone ag-
gregate ten thousand miles of railroad, g,
for which they ask for land grants COW
ering two hundred and fifty millions
of acres, and the guarantee of the in
terest on bonds to the extent of four
hundred millions of dollars. Thirty
two Of these projected schemes lie west
of the Mississippi river. Some of them
ask grants of land extending from five
to twenty miles on each side of the
road, besides sixteen, thirty-two and
forty eight thousand dollars per mile.
Others will put up but three sections
wide, in alternative sections, on each
side Of their line. The international
Pacific of Texas and New Mexico asks
seventy-six millions of acres as its
share, besides the interest on its bonds
amounting to one hundred and twenty
millions Of dollars.

NEWS IN BRIEF.

\ horrible tragedy was unearthed at
Warsaw, Ind, on the Sth inst, Last
April, John w. VaDatta, from Fort
Wayne, secured the affections a Miss
Horn, of Warsaw, and married her in
opposition to the wishes of her parents
and relative. On the wedding night
nearly all the guests, thirty in num-
Der, were taken sick with every ap-
pearaEce of poisoning by arsenic. A
sister of Miss Horn died from its ef-
fects. 1t has been ascertained that he
proposed an elopemcnt with a young
lady, Miss Bennett, within the last
few days, and in his letter to her gives
a full history Of the poisoning, ac-
kn0Wledging that he had put q large
quantity of arsenic in the water from
which the coffee was prepared, and that
he did it for revenge for the manner in
which the family had treated him.
He was arrested on Friday, and after
examination committed to Jail in de-
faultof bail to the amount Of $50, ,00o.
Great excitement exists in this cOmmu-
nifty in consequence of this wholesale
attempt at poisoning. All the parties
concerned are among the most respec-
table citizens of this place.
A negro murdered the Rev. J. II.
Merrill, on the Gort Smith road, near
Little Rock, Arkansas, on the 3lSt ult.
Mr.. Merrill was on his way home from
Little Rock and camped all night in
the woods. The negro came to him
him until morning. Mr.. Merrill kind
ly consented but in the night his guest
took an axe and beat his head in.
When the crime was discovered sever
al citizens mounted their horses and
started in pursuit. The wretch was
caught on the railroad, below Hunters
vile, and taken to Little Rock, where
he is now in Jail. The murder was en-
tireIy unprovoked.

Now. what Say You


The Radical meeting, on Tuesday
night oflast week at the Court House,
adopted the following resolutions:
Resolced. That the time has come
when it is eminently wise and proper
that the national Constitution should
be SO amended as to make suffrage, that
sure badge and guarantee of free man.
hood, impartial and that as the true
and only safe basis of Republican insti-
tions is the intelligence of the people,
and the great enemy of free govern
ment is ignorance, and its ally super
stition, impartial suffrage should be ae-
companied with q constitutional
provision requiring every State to
provide by law for the establishment
of common schools for the education
of all children of proper age without
respect to color at the expense of the
States.
ReSOlred, That we call upon the For
tieth Congress without delay to give to
the country by constitutional Amend
ment universal education and impair
tial suffrage and thus take the veXed
question of the status of the negro out
of the hands of partiZan demagogues
who in the South and in the North are
using it for the sole purpose OF agitation
and to distract the people and retard
the general peace and posperity TO
which the country ought before this
have attained.
We call the attention of every man.

Let Democrats show these resolutions
to their Republican neighbors, and
ask them now that the Radical party
is 0Dealy and drOlCedLy committed TO Ne

They have been deceived, shamefully,
outrageously sWindIed by the Radical
leaders, who declared in every possible
way that it was not their intention to fa-
