In short it is, the SIMPLEST. SAFEST, most
DURABLE and most ECONOMICAL Engine in
the world. We fully guarantee them in all the abeve
expense in getting up SPECIAL TOOLS AND MA
CHIMES with which to build these Engines, so that
every part is made to gauge, and are perfectly III
Interchangeable, the importance Of which will be I'M
dersto0d by all who are at all familiar with machin-
cry. Thus, every Engine of given size is an exact
duplicate of every other of that size, and IN
OF breakage, the broken part can be Immediately re-
placed by its perfect duplicate.
The inventor OF this Engine had in view, in its
construction the great need that exists for perfect
Steam Engine-of small p0wer-adapted to all kinds
of light mechanical work. and that should also COM
bine all that is good in Steam Engineering.
The first point was, to secure a perfectly pho-
sophcal Boiler and Furnace, in order to insure the
most perfect combustion and 80 take the greatest
possible amount of heat in generating steam.
The second point was, to make a perfect cutoff
Engine working steam expansively, and keeping up
the temperature of the cylinder to prevent loss by
radiation or condensation.
The third point was, to combine and make the
whole mechanically and scientifically correct ma
chine; all its parts being provided with means to
take up lost motion, that 1t may be used for any
number Of years, and always run smoothly. In all
the largest and most perfect engine ever constructed
The result is-THE GREATEST AMOUNT OF POWER
PRoPORTIONED TO THE AMOUNT OF FUEL CON-
sUMED-thus proving the fact-well known to men
of science-that Dater is the best medium to trans
NIT the mechgnscdS FORCES, generated in the com"
buston of fuel, to the ProdWclien of motive po,cer.

THE QUESTION SOLVED.

THE KANSAS SENATORIAL SUCCESSION SET
TLED-ELECTIoN OF EX-GOVERNOR JAMES
HARVEY.
TOPEKA, Ks.-Ex-Governor James NJ
Harvey has been elected as Senator to sue
ceed Caldwell. Gov. Harvey is Virginian
by birth, and has spent most of his life in
Adams Co., Ills, up to 1857, when he came
to Kansas aud engaged in farming. He en-.
tered the army when the rebellion broke
out, and served as Captain of the 10th Kan
sas Infantry. After the'war he was elected
to the State Senate, and in 1868 was elected
Governor of Kansas by the Republicans,
and reelected in 1870. He is a practical
farmer and steadfast Republican, and an
earnest friend of all genuine reform meas
ures. His personal character is above re-
proach. mo stain of corruption has ever
been attached to him, and this election is
regarded as triumph of honesty and fair
ness in Kansas politics. The final ballot on
whicp Harvey was elected stood Harvey,
70; Plumb 20; Simons IS; Storer g.; Robin
son 4; Snoddy Fenton and Price each; and
Davis, Valentine and Anthony one each.

ANOTHER BROTHER-IN-LAw.

ARREST OF ONE OF. THE sMILER's KINsMEN
The Dubuque Herald says: There seems
to be something especially fatal in the at
mosphere of the present season to the Credit
Mobilier jobbing Of the republican leaders.
There has been carnival of crime for the
past two years, so far as connecting the
names ofprominent politicians with pecula-
ticns of public funds is concerned, which is
calculated to astound all honest men and
make them chary of believing half the
stories told by these official dslinuuencies.
for the reason that such things stagger ali
belief in human probity. A case in point
is that of the detection and arrest of
Elisha Cowles, of Jasper county, Iowa.
United States mail agent and head postal
clerk on the Chicago, Rock Island and Pa
cific railroad. This man. so far as facts have
been divulged, seems to have been engaged
| for several years in asomewhat reckless rob-
| berry of the mails, which he had in charge.
and this fact is calculated to detract in some
degree from the selflaudations of the United
States officials who have, at this late date
unearthed his iniquities, and arrested him.
Mr.. Cowles, it is supposed, enjoyed a con-
siderable immunity from suspicion of par
| ticipation in the robberies which have been
known to have been perperrated on this line
of road for eight or ten years, on account
of his relationship to ex-Vice President
Schuyler Colfax, of whom his wife is a
half sister. Resting his hopes of secu-
rity from punishment upon this relationship
| il is said that he became so utterly reckless
of late as to challenge the suspicion of his
best friends. and this accounts for his arrest
and incarceration. 1t is stated that Mrs.
Cowles is half sister TO the Hon. Mr. Col
fax, as before remarked, and thus she has
been receiver all along Of the results of her
/ husbands peculati0ns. These circumstances
attain additional importance from the fact
that Mrs. Cowles was one of the parties who
rushed into the breach of newspaper print
to defend the reputation and honor on tne
credit mobilier faux pas of her half brother
then vice-president of the United States, by
statingthat the suspicious 81 200 check found
4 in controversy which seemed to reflect
upon the honesty of Mr.. Colfax, was sent to
her for legitimate purposes.

HOUSE.

Mr.. Wilson, OF Indiana presented four
memorials touching the affairs of the Dis
trict OF Columbia and made statement in
reference to a matter in regard to which he
said some erroneous publications had been
made respecting the Speaker Of the House.
He explained the matter at length of this
effort to hold the floor. Mr.. Wilson then
presented memorials of w. w Corcoran,
q. w. Riggs, Columbus Alexander and 9TH
ers and of the Governor of the
District of Columbia, with a resolution for
the Committee on Investigation. The con-
current resolution was then read. 1t pro-
vides for a Joint select committee, to be ap-
pointed by the President Of the Senate ard
Speaker OF the House, to inquire into the
matters specified in the petitions whether
unlawful contracts have been made for pub
lie improvements in the district; whether
unlawful assessments have been levied; the
actual cost of such improvements; the
amount to be paid therefor; whether correct
measurements have been made; the existing
Indebtedness on account thereof; and what
if any portion of such indebtedness was
created on account of government property,
and may properly be paid for cut OF the
treasury of the United States.
Mr.. Kasson suggested an addition to the
inquiry also, whether any amendment ot
the organic acts is necessary to protect the
further rights of citizens and the disburse-
ment and collection of money. He stated
that the public-school teachers had not been
paid since September last.
Mr.. Cox said the police had not been paid
since September last.

THE "HIDDLE EEN,"
Those who can "tske drink or let it
alone" and who number many of our best
citizens. They can see but little to be- ac
complished by the movement, but believe
the motive that sctuates the women is
good one, and il il can not do much good
may do some harm. They recall the fact
that last winter these same temperance men
were clamOrouS for a rigid, iron clad tenn
perance law, and would be satisfied with
nothing else. Such a law they obtained,
much to the chagrin of the LIQUOR men. But
now that we have sueli a law, with
so many strong guards around it, and
because the law permits men to
sell under it by the payment of large
sums of money, il is but giving protection
to the citizen to see that his right to sell is
not disturbed. The law Is terror in itself,
and if enforced by rigorous prosecution,
would cause every saloon to close its doors
inside of six months. Numerous are its
VlOlaJlOnS, ana vigilance and persistent
effort would soon have the desired effect.
They believe it will create strife and diseord
in the social circle, but are not very clear
upon this branch of the question. The
"middle men, "while not disposed to bloviate
and publicly condemn this crusade, and
while opposed to the whole liquor question,
are not inclined to encourage the movement,
and may add, the "middle men" are gain
ing in strength every hour. Mayor Allen
was appealed to to-day by the liquor men
for protection, on the ground that the women
were interfering with and molesting them in
the exercise of their business, but the mayor
refused to interfere, because he lack
ed the power, but in my opin-
ion he rather lacked the "Send."
| 1t is understood that all the churches are
enrolled in the "lesgue," with the exception
of the Presbyterian church. this denomina-
ton being a silent locker on in Venice. And
so the matter stands. The people, old and
young, are teeming with excitement, the
equal of which has not been known here
since the days of the war; the caldron is
bubbling, and no special day Is set for re
laxed exertion. The women are in earnest,
and have announced their intention of keep
ing up their visits until the last saloon is
closed. The liquor men, while they. show
no symptoms of "weakening,' are a little
disturbed in the southwest quarter of the
cerebellum, and it may be that their knees
will yet catch the contagion and theil
strongest hour may prove their weakest.

Miss Grundy, in Washington letter, tells
this anecdote of the thrift of one of the scions
of the house of SpTague: One day lately at
the breakfast table Senator Sprague said TO
his son: "You must understand. my boy,
that you are the son of poor man, and will
have your own way to make in the world
have fifty cents in my pocket, not a cont
more, SO after breakfast ] think III take yOu
out and get boot-blscking apparatus for
you. You must learn TO black your own
boots like a poor mans son. you know"
The little fellow listened intently, then said:
"Well, papa, can't L black your boots and
save you sOmething?" sob, certainly. If you
wish" his father answered. Aflev breakfast
the investment was made. The ns xt morn
ing the enterprisin2 youngster rose at Day
light, and before anybody was up and could
interfere. had blaeked every boot and shoe
in the Sprague mansion. including 4 pair of
his mothers, which had been bought recent
ly for nineteen dollars, and which, of course,
were utterly ruined.

Attest DANIEL MCDONALD, Clerk.

Richard Risley Carlisle, the founder
of the town of New Carlisle, in st. Jo-
seph county, died at the Insane Asylum
in Philadelphia, on the 25th of May. He
was probably IS years old. He was, in
his prime, the most active man in Ameri-
CT, and probably had no superior in
strength and manly beauty. He would
jump backward farther than the most
active could forward. He would hold
one hand on his back and with the other
throw the most expert wrestler. He was
passionately fond Of amusements and
spent fortune In fast living before he
became professional athlete. He trav
eled in Europe and was ieasted and idol
lied by fast Noblemen. He astonished
the japanese with his strength, activity,
and presence of mind. He travelled with
circus in California; but was never sue
cessful long at time. He was once q
merchant in South Bend. He was known
in the East and in California of Prof.
Risley. In Indiana he was Dick Carlisle.
