REMARKABLE DREAM.-A young
lad named STRIBLEN, was drowned
in Fall Greek, near Indianapolis, on
Thursday last. Since the drowning,
an active but unsuccessful search for
the body was made until Saturday
night. On that night, a Mr.. BEss,
who had been engaged in searching
for the body, dreamed twice that he
saw the body under the water, at
! oint where the creek makes a bend,
some distance below where the lad
was drowned. At daylight he re-
paired to the spot indicated in his
dream, aud to his utter astonishment
he beheld the dim outlines of the
body, floating beneath the suffice of
the water, rising and sinking at inter
walls, precisely as he saw it in his
dreams. He soon brought the body
out of the water, and it was restored
to his grief stricken mother.

A ooKREsPoNDENT of the New

show that the operatives of England
are enabled to purchase with their
wages more Of the necessities Of life
than our laborers Of the same class.
In resorting TO such silly arguments
the opponents of the tariff do their
cause an injury. No one believes any
such stuff, because no fact is better
established than that the operatives
of Eagiapd do not enjoy as many of
the necessities of life as the same
class Of mechanics in America.

THE CONSTITUTIONAL CONVENTION.

At the opening of the legislature few
Of the rampant radicals attempted to rush
through bill ordering the election Of dele
gates in May aud the meeting Of the con-
yention in June. Mr.. Epler, democrat,
showed that such q course would involve
heavy expense for a special election that
not one in twenty Of the people would, at
that time participate in the election, and 1t
would therefore, call out no expression Of
the people generally in the choice of dele.
ga,es and that, for the convention to meet
in June would be at time when the dele.
gates could not as well give their attention
10 the matter as TO meet in the winter. lie
therefore introduced bill to hold the cleo
ton for delegates at the annual election
next November, thus saving the expense of
a special election, and for the convention
to meet 10 the winter following. 1t is now
probable that this course will be adopted.
Another question is BOW before the legis'
lature, viz whether the people really voted
to have any convention S'all. The Spring.
field correspondent Of the Chicago Times,
under date Of the 23d, says;
There appears to be great reluctance in rad
zeal circles here to have the votes cast on the
question Of calling q constitutional convention
officially csnvRSSsd. There IL no provision in
the constitution OF laws Of the state providing
for an official canvass Of this vote, and the sen
ate passed resolution providing for joint
committee to canvass the vote. In the house,
this senate resolution came up to-day, and, after
- short struggle, was referred 70 the committee
On Judiciary. The reported majority in favor
of calling the convention is very small, and this
squirming against an official canvass has AWHk-
ensd very grave Spprehensions that the vote Of
the people was not in favor Of callugs conyen.

Az ASSAULT uPoS NEWSPAPER CORREsPoE.
DENTS,

Mr.. Sickles, of Rock Island, cadaverous
gentleman who very closely resembles Am.
inidab Sleek as represented on the stage,
introduced resolution in the house, to-day,
concerning newspaper correspondents; de-
claring, in the most solemn manner, with q
profusion of whereases, ETC., that the house
disapproyes Of the practice of these CORE
spondents in critiCisIng the course and i'm.
pugning the motives of members. The res
olution proposed, in effect, a general vote Of
censure but was so superlatvely ridiculous
and totally uncslled for that the whole house
received it with shouts of laughter; and, af
ter few burlesque speeches, in which mem
bers complained ofimaEinary wrongs, they
had sustained at the hands Of unscrupulous
| pOndents-one member considering
himself terribly slandered because a news
paper had called another one, instead of
himself, the handsomest man in the house.
the whole thing was turned into a broad
joke, and the resolution laid upon the table.
| Mr.. SickleS was the last man in the house
who should have introduced such a resolu.
ton. There was no danger of any newspa.
per attacking him. The newspapers always
hunt for larger game, and never single out q
superanuated grandmother as an object OF
assault. Poor Sickles If be had needed
the advice the old lady gave the idiot at the
party, and kept his mouth shut, it would
never have been known he was fool.
