The Fifteenth Amendment.

TEE Democratic members of the 1ndi-
ana Legislature resigned their seats in
order to break up quorum and prevent
the consideration of the Fifteenth Amend
ment to the Constitution of the United
States. They allege that they want the
subject to be voted upon by the people in
the choice of new Legislature. The
Constitution of Indiana requires the pres.
ence of two-thirds of the members OF
each house for quorum, and the Democ-
racv feel sure that postponement Will
work them no injury, it being hardly
possible that the Republicans should elect
a two-thirds majority in both branches
The factious opposition now can, there
fore. be repeated hereafter. The real Cd
iect is delay The suggestion that they
want to take the sense of the people Is aD
surd. because the present Legislature was
elected upon pretty nearly the same ques-
ton now presented.
The recent elections do not promise any
comfort to the Democratic party from an
appeal to the people. The question OF
ratification of the Fifteenth Amendment,
including the issue of negro suffrage at
home, was directly submitted to the peo-
pie of New Hampshire, Connecticut and
Rhode Island, and the people have ordered
it's ratification. The case of Connecticut
il peculiarly strong one. Two years ago,
an amendment to the State Constitution,
granting negro suffrage, was rejected.
The State also elected three Representa-
tiyes to Congress, who voted against this
Fifteenth, Amendment to the National
Constitution. One of the Senators voted
the same way. But the people OF Con-
necticut, however much they may have
been opposed to establishing negro suf-
frape in their own State alone, were
heartily in favor of making it the law in
all the States. The Senator and one OF
the Representatives who voted against the
Fifteenth Amendment were candidates be-
fore the people at the recent election, and
thew and the Democratic State Govern
ment made that amendment the issue NJ
the election. The people have not only
elected q Legislature under instructions TO
ratify the amendment, but they nave
repudiated the Senator and Representative
who voted in Congress against it. That
is the way the people of Connecticut have
answered the appeal made to them. the
? people of New Hampshire and Rhode
Island have made the same answer, ana
the people of Indiana and of all the other
States will do likewise. 1t is remark
able fact that the strongest objection now
held in the Southern States to negro SUI
frage is the fact that it is not secured in
all the States as well as in their own; and
the Democracy of Indiana and the North
generally are, by their opposition, but
making the people of the South excep-
tions to rule which ceases to be offensive
to any when applied to all the States alike.

Woman and her Needs.

Subject by the law of nature to many physical
Affections from which man is exempt, woman is
peculiarly entitled to the best efforts of medical
science in her behalf. For a majority of the all
ments to which her sex is exclusively liable, HOS
LETTERS STOMACH BITTERS are warmly re-
commended on the authority of wives, mothers,
and nurses who have tested their genial tonic and
regulating properties, and "know whereof they
speaks" and also with the sanction of able physi.
clans, who have administered the preparation to
their female patients, in obstinate cases of fune-
tional arrangement, with the happiest results.
Almost all female complaints of a special charac-
ter. are complicated with mental gloom and de-
spondency, and the gentle and lasting exhilarat-
ing effects of this wholesome medicated stimu-
liant adapts admirably for cases of this complex
nature. As a remedy for the hysteria and mental
Authorizations which sometimes mark both the
earlier and later crisis in the life of woman, it
has no equal in the repertory OF the healing art,
and as means of relieving the nausea and other
unpleasant feelings which precede maternity, it
is equally eficacious. Nursing mothers also find
it an admirable invigorant 1t is highly satisfac-
tory that preparation which embraces in it's re-
medal range so many of the complaints common
to both sexes, should prove SO eminently benef-
cial to the weaker one.

The suicide of rich miser is reported
in the London papers. She was a widow
named Harriet Gray, 81 years of age. She
was worth over 100000, but was in the
habit of denying herself the common ne
cessaries of life. She kept one candle in
the house, and whenever her nephew
called upon her to see her, sne made it a
rule to light it, but when he was going
away she blew it out, as it was her habit
to sit in the dark The house in which
she lived was in a filthy condition. The
jury returned verdict of suicide while in
q state of temporary insanity.

A SURE CURE FOR A FFLoN.-When
the soreness first commences, or even when far
advanced, it can be relieved and entirely cured
by holding the finger or part afflicted in Perry
Davis Pain Killer for half an hour. 1t has been
thoroughly tested, and proves a never-failing
remedy. A felon is a troublesome thing, and we
would advise all 80 troubled to test the remedy.

ABOUT RATS There have been about
thousand certain ways promulgated
whereby %e could effectuaIly clear our
premises of rats. We saw one lately in
an English paper, which was simply to
scatter yellow ochre about the infested
places, and they would disappear for at
least Il year. Thinking this was an ap-
proved mode over the water, there must
be something in it, and we tried it 1t
had about as good an effect as If the same
quantity of turnpike dirt had been substi-
tuted. Being disappointed in so many
"certain remedies" we next resorted 10
the only one FROM which we ever found
any Teliet-poison. 1t killed many and
drove the rest away. Having thus rid
our premises of them. we saw none for
years, but now they again abundantly
abound, and we mean 10 assail them with
the following dose. which it Is highly prob
able will be "A little too nicely prepared
aud great deal too powerful for their di-
gestive organs Take an ounce of finely
powdered arsenic, one ounce of lard corn>
meal enough 70 make stiff dough -
Place in very small parcels in places in
tested by the rats, with water handy to
quench their burning thirst. They are
greedy fond of this mixture and it settles
the question with them in short order -

WOMEN's LAWS Mark Twain saya
when women frame laws the first thing
they do will be 10 enact:
l That all men should be at home at
ten +. NJ without fail.
2 That married men should bestow
considerable attention upon their own
wives
B. That it should be q hanging offense
TO sell whisky in saloons, and that fines
and acknowledgements should follow it in
such places.
4. That the smoking of segars to ex-
cess should be forbidden, and the smoking
of pipes utterly abolished
8. That the wife should have the title
Of her own property when she marries a
man that hadn't any.
''Such tyranny as this" says Mark.
"we could never stand. Our free souls
could never endure such degrading thrall-
dom. Women, 90 away! Seek not to
beguile us of our imperial privileges -
Content yourselves with yonr little femi-
nine trifies-your babies, Your benevolent
societies and your knitring-and let your
natural bosses do the voting Stand
back-yOn will be wanting to 90 to war
next. We will let you teach school as
much as you want to, and pay you half
price, toe; but beware! we don't want
you 10 crowd US too much"

way now in operation at Clifton, in
Northern New York. near the Canada
line, and on which immense quantities of
iron ore are transported from the Adirun-
dack mines: The grading is the same
as for an iron road, excepT that SITTER
grades can be ascended. The ties are of
the ordinary description, but are not
squared on any side. and on the Clifton
road are placed at the usual distance of
three feet apart, except on the Tesiles,
are three ties to every two yards In
future, however, the engineer proposes to
the three ties to every two yards, as lie
proposes running heavier engines. The
rails are of maple, six inches by four, but
in future their shape will be altered lit

timber, making them three and a half

Notches are cut in the round ties to such

rails are fastened to the ties by couple

directions on the outside of the rail, with
