. Congress having Just amended the Bankrupt;
law so that nearly all parties can be discharged
from their debts unobstructed by the fifty per
cent clause, so-called, another opportunity offers
to secure the benefits of this most effective and
permanent measure of relief. The above-named

procure discharges on The most moderate terms,
which cunnot fail to BE satisfactory. Being Uni
ted States Commissioner he will endcavor to visit
the different, counties Jon court days, and thus
save parties the trouble and expense of several
trips to Alexandra in beginning and proceeding
with their cases. Discharges can be obtained
here before Register Hill rs promptly as in Rioh:.

Indianapolis, Jan. 5. The Legislature or
ganized this morning, the Democrats electing
VIM. Mack of Terre lIaute, Speaker of the
House, and w. r. Hanson of Morgan Co.,
Secretary of State. The latter election was
secured through the absence of 2 Republican
Senators and cooperation of Republican Sem
ators Hughes Of Nourol Co., and. Elliott of
Connersyille, with the Democrats. After the
organization OF the Senate, it was declared
that James w. Bursen, Rep. was not legally
elected, and referred his case to select COM
mittee, thus giving Dennis at present ma
jority of three.
The Republicans were unprepared for the
action for majority of the Senate and are
very indignant against Hughes and Elliott
for deserving them. Rumors are current that
the Republican Senators will resign and go
home.
