OF THE
Chicago, Danville, and Vim
cennes Railroad.


The Bonds follow the completion of the Road
have the Union Trust Company of New York as their
Ofioial Register and Transfer Agent-and are sold at
present at 95 and accrued interest.
They bear examination and comparison better, 1t
s believed, than any other now before the public, in
the fixed and Interchangeable elements Of Safety Sc
curity and Profit.
They bear good interest Seven per cent. Gold for
forty years-and are secured by Sinking Fund, and
First Mortgage upon the road Its OUTFIT and net in
come the Franchises, and all present and future ac-
quired property OF the Company
They depend upon no new or half-setted territory
for business to pay their interest, but upon old,
well-settled and productive country-assuming that
railroad built through the heart OF such a region
offers better security for both Interest and Principal
than road to be built through the most highly ex-
tolled wilderness or sparsey settled territory.
This Railroad possesses special advantages, In

ming through line Of villages and old farming set

The President advocates the adop
ton of Secretary Creswell's recon-
mendation for the franking privilege.
On the subject of civil service re-
form, Grant has the coolness to say
always favoring practical reforms,
I respectfully call your attentian to
an abuse of long standing, which
would like to see remedied by this
Congress. 1t is a reform in the civil
service of the country" Seeing that
the President has just turned one of
the ablest members of his cabinet out
of office, because he attempted to in
stitute a reform in this direction, his
remarks on this subject will be apt to
make people open their eyes some.
The Message speaks enc ourageiug-
ly of our Indian affairs; and the hope
is expressed that the present policy
of the government will eventuate in
the civilization Of these "wards of the
nation"
The remainder of the document
concerns general matters of which it
is unnecessary to speak here. Ell.

ded by gang of politicians, who
were leyying forced assessments upon
his clerks, for political purposes
The officer felt impelled to set his
face like flint against these proceed
ings, and accordingly the President,
acting as the tool of the aforesaid gang,
turned him out. And now the Pres
ident has the effrontery to come out
in his Message in favor of reform in
the civil service We imagine that
the country will be better off without
any of his reformation if Grants idea
of what such reform should be, is
shown in his conduct toward the In
terror Department.
Secretary Boutwell,, too, is con-
strained by the pressure of public
opinion, to- make show of zeal in the
new crusade The Secretary says
that the act of 1856, i'll regard to the
examination of the clerks, has been
observed in his department. Mr..
Boutwell, took occasion to announce
this fact, at the time that Mr.. Cox
left the Cabinet; but the Nation inti-
mates that his observance of the act
is more nominal than real. 1t is well
known that the policy which Mr.. Cox
rebelled against, and which is one of
our civil service, has no more earnest
supporter than the Secretary of the
Treasury.
One thing seems assured: the pub
lie mind is now 50 thoroughly aroused
or this subject. that it will be satisfied
with nothirg short of a substantial
remodeling of onr political machinery.
If the work is prosecuted Alright, that
machinery will be found to be COM
plex beyond all reason, and the nc
cessity for reduction in officials. by
at least one half, will enforce itself
During the past decade, the multipl'-
cation of useless offices has been one
of the worst evils inflicted upon the
country.-Plam Dealer.

the Reformers, the latter viii be-
elected. The language of the. World
is. s'If Democrats adopt the Revenue:
Reform candidate, the House will,1
nevertheless, have a Republican,
Speaker The Revenue Reformerss
can't vote for Demohrat, nor even
allow the Democrats any voice in the
candidate they expect them to adopt"
The World thus concludes its artl-
Gle:
Democrats must respect the party
shackles of the revenue reformers.-
OF course, they cannot adopt the
revenue-reform candidate until they
know who he is; but if he is a fair
minded, liberal man, they should have
no hesitation in voting for him. Nor
should they afterwards be at all sx-r
acting in respect to places on the conn
mittees. It is better that the Repub--
lican Speaker should be faithful to his
party. Democrats have no interest
in breaking down and confoundineS
party lines; on the contrary, we wish
them TO remain broad and distinct
All that we can ask is the same rela--
tive weight of the committees that We
possess by our numbers in the Honse =
and to this we are entitled from any
Speaker, though elected by the pro-
tectionists. We might reasonably ash
that all the fiscal committees should
have a majority of reformers, and
that the committee on elections should
be composed of men of judicial tenn
per, who would decide every contest
ed case on its merits according to the
returns and the evidence. The pro-
tectionists are threatening to contest
the seats of some Democrstice
members, and we have right to de r
mand THAT the committee on elections
shall do justice between the claim
ants.
The Democrats will derive no other
advantage from tho new arrangement
than this: that the election Of q;
SPEAKER on purely free-trade grounds
and the noise and commotion it must
cause, will lift the free-trade question:
into overtopping prominence and
cause it to be discussed with unwons- 2
ed fervor. This will have two good
effects; first, in Withdrawing the pub
lie mind from defunct issues second
ly, In whetting curiosity to keen
edge respecting a reform which can,
fail only by apathy and Indifference
The revenue reformers have caused
quite ferment already, and if their
movement should culminate, as We
expect, III the election of free trade
Speaker in the next House, the
Presidential election will inevitably
turn upon that issue. The revenue
reform aurora, heralds the rising Of
the Democratic sun, 1t tempers the
light to weak eyes and prepares them
for the full efulgence of approaching
day.-Nobile Register.

BY reference to DIR. Roback's advertise
m mt, on the third page, it will be seen that
the Doctor has lust introduced new ar
ticle in the line of Stomach Bitters."
These Bitters are destined to become very
popular, from the fact that they are genuine
in very sense of the term that is, they
derive their stimulus from the powerful
tonic nature of the roots and herbs of which
they are composed, and hence their effect is
natural. we have had the pleasure of test
ing the qualifications of these Bitters, and
do not hesitate to pronounce them the ''one
thing needed in every well-regulated fami-
ty." See advertisement. Office and Manu-
