10 the Editor Of TIE S--,tite,:
Ma DEAR SIR As secretary of the Demo-
cratic State Central committee, and a tenn
porsry member of the same, 1 WIS fully i'm
pressed on. Wednesday night that the rcsig-
nation OF Col. E. s. Alvord, as chairman of
the committee wrought loss of the demo-
cratic party that could not easily be made
good. The selection Of Hon. j. E. McDonold
In his place was proper and right, and L am
glad to be able to say that he has accepted
the reposed confidence of his democratic and
LIBERAL friends. While congratulsting the
democrats OF Indiana on worthy and pru-
dent successor of Mr.. Avord,-one whom I
have known long and tavorably,-I cannot
refrain from the expression of a profound
regret that Mr.. Aivord will not remain in his
connection with the organization of the. de-
mocracy of the state. His place In the next
campaign, as compared with the past. will
not be easily filled by any person the DEM
ocrats and liberal republicans may agree
upon on the 18th of next July.
L have met Mr.Alvord as member of the
committee of which he was chairman, and at
Baltimore in 1872, when he was greeted as
the chairman OF western state whose de-
mocracy has never suffered decentralization.
When Col. Alvord spoke for liberality of
sentiment, he was regarded as the represen-
tative of people who had never shown the
white flag to the political enemy.
know that you, Mr.. Editor, eschew poll
tics, but you will allow me the privilege of
saying to the democrats of Indiana that when
Col. Alvord retired from the management of
our political affairs we suffered the loss of
the ablest political manager in the state or
nation. a better and filter man for the
position of chairman than Elijah S. Alvord
lives not on earth.

Secretary of Committee.

who got up controversy about his Ham let
which attracted public attention. But even

to sustain it by bringing out "Othello" the
play fell fiat.
Thomas Lowndes, blacksmith, residing
on North Fifth street, Brooklyn, while in
toxicated, quarreled with his wife on Sun
day. During the alteration he drew a long
sheath knife, and stabbed her over the left
eve aud under the left breast, killing her
instantly. After committing the deed, he
sent his two young sons for whisky, which
he drank, and went out. At later hour he
staggered back to his residence and was ar
rested. The deceased was also addicted to
drink.
The arrest ofthe bishop OF Treves last week,
caused much excitement among the Catholic
population. 1t was followed Monday by the
forcible closing of the seminary attached to
the bishops see, in accordance with the de-
crees of the courts and the orders of the gov
eminent. Large numbers of people gathered
around the institution and tried to prevent
the officers from doing their duty. A riot
followed which threatened to become serious.
The troops came to the assistance of the au-
thorities and quickly dispersed the mob.
The subcommittee appointed to Investigate
the affairs ofthe Ocean National bank return
ed from New York to Washington Monday.
The testimony shows that the bank was
closed in consequence OF the action OF the
New York clearinghouse, and was based
upon the report of its committee and after
careful examination into the condition of
the bank. No evidence has been presented
tending to prove that any conspiracy was
formed between the officers of the bank and
parties on Wall street to bring about the
failure, or that any person had been previ-
ously agreed upon as receiver. or that the as
sistance of any official at Washington was
obtained in aid of any conspiracy to close
the bank.
The body of man was found between
Des Moines aud Prairie City, Iowa, Sunday
noon. 1t was lying fiat on the face, in a
corn field, half mile from any road. A
coroner's jury rendered a verdict that death
ensued probably three weeks ago, and was
caused by exposure and freezing, evidently
preceded by arrangement. The body is
that of a man about thirty-five years of age,
five feet and eight inches high, auburn hair,
and light mOustache. A fine gold watch
was found on the person, having a fine
chain with comedian charm bearing the
name of Jennie. There were also railroad
tickets from New York to Cheyenne, and
from New York to Council Bluffs, and a
trunk check. A memorandum book in his
pocket would indicate that the name of the
person was A. l.. Cook or o. @. Ditmars, and
that he was connected with the firm of l..
NJ. Bates d Co., of New York City.

AN OBSTINATE TUN MEL.

A correspondent writes from Richmond
Virginia: OF all recent undertakings that
have tried mems souls, the tunnel of the
Chesapeak and Ohio railroad through Church
hill, in the eastern part of this city, seems
to be one of the "darndest." 1t was COM
menced about two years ago, and after geol-
ogists had determined that there were no
rocks to be bored or blasted, the job was
thought to be very easy one. The CITY
gave the company three hundred thousand
dollars in bonds to prosecute the undertake
ing, and the contract was let to be filled in
about a year. The contractors long ago
gave up in despair, and the company came
forward to do the work. The tunnel runs
eighty or ninety feet below the surface
through a slippery kind of blue clay, which
has slipped and caved at all times, seasonal
bic and unreasonable. By the various ac-
cidents that have occurred, five or six men
have been killed, and more than
dozen painfully wounded. The cavings
have seriously retarded operations, and
mined many houses over the line of the tun.
nell and entailed vast cost not in the pro-
gram. A few weeks ago it was announced
that the tunnel was completed. But big
cave took place near a shaft, and consider
able delay and additional work were the
consequences. The tunnel proper is about
three-quarters of a mile long, but for mile
beyond its eastern portal the work is quite
as difficult and veXatiOus as that under the
surface. For a considerable distance cut
for the connection track had to be made at
the foot of Bloody Run hill. Soon after this
cut was made, a very remarkable phenome-
non was presented. Vast crevases in the
hillside appeared, and immense masses of
earth sloughed off and glided down upon
the track. The company have found it
necessary, to stop the hill from running en-
masse upon them, to build retaining wall
of stone eleven feet thick, along one side of
this portion of the track.

The crowds which witnessed the process

A POPULAR VOICE

Col. Cyrus NJ. Allen said it was rather

unbounded praise upon IL for having
promptly cured the writer's or their
friends Of Fever and Ague, or other
forms OF mlasmatic or malarlous dis

make knswn the wonderful virtues OF
tho Discovery In the cure Of Agne and
kindred diseases. lie always replied
that 1t was not intended for Q ''cure

the people as n remedy for so many
different forms and classes OF disease.
he feared those who had never tested
Its virtues would at once class 1t among
the numerous humbugs Of the day.
This answer was satisfactory to no one;
they urged that the whsle country
ought TO know IL at once, and ex-
pressed their as%tonlshment at his indif.
ference to the subject. Iii, ear and
heart being ut all times opon to the call
Of suffering humanity, he has at last,
AFTER having received testimony from
hundreds who have been speedily cured
