The Terre Haute Erprss3 yesterday
came to US in suit Of new type, and
with dimensions so much enlarged that
we hardly recognized it. We congratu-
late our cetemporary on. this evidence
of prosperity. and trust that with a
big paper. fne presses aud job type
to correspond. it will have a glo-
ri5us future. The E.cpress was estab-
lished on the 18Th of December, 1871,
by Col. TRes. DoWLING, as a weekly
paper. On the 18th Of May, 1851, the
Express made its FIRST appearance as
Daily, under the management Of Mr..
DANIEL S. DONALDSON. TO whom Coll
DowLIEG had previously sold out. Ga
the Och Of November, 1853, Messrs. S.
B. L. SoULE and MosEs SoULE became
the managers and owners Of the paper.
ROBERT n. HUDSON, Esq. became
the owner and editor Of the Express
on the 14th of September, 1856. Upon
assuming control of the paper, he pur-
chased the Office and good will of the
American newspaper, of that city
which he merged with the Erpress.
Afterward. on the 18th Of April, 1857,
Mr.. HUDSON also purchased the
entire establishment, subscription
lists and good will of the old Wabash
Courier daily and weekly of that
city. This paper had been established
for quarter of century, and, when
merged with the Express, had
respectable circulation and patronage.
Mr.. HUDSON had control of the paper
for five years. and on the 28th day OF
January, 1861, transferred the Office
to Gen. CHARLES CRuFr, the present
proprietor.
The circulation and influence Of the
paper has been on the increase, and
at the present time is said to be much
greater than ever. With the lergely
increased facilities for doing business,
in the hands of the present proprietor,
we feel assured that he will make his
paper and Office more popular and
more successful than at any time in
its previous history.
Captain CHARLES ALLEN, the editor
of the EIpress, to whose energy and
ability We attribute much of its i'm
proved appearance, will not rest con-
tent with present attainments, but
push on to yet greater. achieve

ENGLAND.

LONDON, October 12.-The Time,
on the Fenian amnesty says the Crown
is invited to pardon rebels who do not
pretend to be penitent, not because
the conspiracy Is crushed, but because
it is still formidable enough to rally
sympathiZers. No one doubts the
right Of the Government to suppress
outrages against law and order. Had
the forbearance of the Crown been
invoked In becoming tone, with the
recognition of the right to protect
loyal citizens, an amnesty might be a
message of peace. At present, we see
no presumption that it would be re-
ceived In that spirit by the demand
ers, while 1t must operate as dis
couragement to those who helped to
crush the Fenian outbreak. There
can be no greater Injustice, nothing
more impolitic, than such an act, if
ireland is still Fenian at heart or hos
tile to the Union. We believe a ma
iority of the Irish people would re-
ioice at the suppression of Fenianism.

explain, which he did. He said he
was Chairman of the Committee on

mem bers of his committee had asked
him if they would be entitled to seats

had prepared a report, which he

also made some remarks of a per

by ex-Gov. Shorter of Alabama:

WELL DEsERvEp.-Mr. Albert D. Rich
ardson, in letter published lu the New York
Tribune Of Saturday last, on the private
libraries Of Chicago, pays the following
well-deserved compliment to the Librarian
Of Congress.
In speaking Of the well.known library OF
Hon. John A. Rice, Of Chicago, he says.
The Congressional Library excels Ii, for,
by one Of the miracles Of our bungling sye.
TEN, we have the right man at the head Of
that In the person Of A. r. Spofford, who
knows books better than any other librarian
In the country, and whose zeal Is according
to knowledge. A year or two ago, under
his inspiration, Congress voted to pay $780,
900 for the collection Of the veteran Peter
Force, the Washington printer, with whom
gathering books on America was lifelong
passion, and who. to crafty II, kept himself
poor, and his property mortgaged at three
per cent. a month. The addition of his in
comparable collection has made the Con-
gressional Library-strong before In that
department-one In which we may feel q
Just national pride, and which will prove
mine OF boundless richness to that coming
man who Is yet to delight US with q worthy
history Of the United States.
