friends have based his claims principally
epon his services as governor of Indiana,
and have been pleased to designate him as
the Great War Governor" But If his
claims are predieaied upon the ability he
displayed in war, they win te me. by coun-
ter claims for his principal rival, who is
nnquestionably the greater military man OF
ths two. General Grant has often snaelt
guupowder, and II the senator ever did 1t
was on q small scale or al a safe distance.
The president may have also tasted it for
aught We know, for soldiers sometimes mix
che y;liainous saltpeier with their whisky
70 give them dash aud daring. In this,
100, ne has an advantage over the sem
asor, tor the latter is not noted for his abil-
ity 70 atilize either gunpowder or whisky.
Therefore, il Senator Morton relies for
success OF his war record, or his ability TO
drink whisky or burn gunpowder, his as
piiations VIII come to naught. Some other
quality OF merit must be developed and
known, OF else, in his contest with General
Grant Tor tho nomination, he will go to the
wall. And happily for the senator, the
Gazstte correspondent has discovered that
ne has quality of mind not possessed by
any other being. 1t is this power of deter
mining vexed aud knotty questions,
through the medium of dreams. In this
faculty he has no competitor, and 1t gives
him gres. advantage over those who aspire,
with 1im, TO the Republican nomination in
1876. His friends should keep this fact
before the people, for it is his best hold. In
chs other qualities claimed for him he has
Rivals. but as a dreamer, he is without a
peer.

The Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1868-1895, 1875-12-08

Bishop Gilbert Haven, in a religious
gathering at Boston Of preachers and Sun
dsy-school workers, proposed an indorse-
msnt of Grant for q third term as measure
of national safety. This is q very queer
movement, and that such a resolution
should have passed unanimously is passing
strange. Religious bodies, in times of ma
tiOnsl danger, have often deemed It neces
sary that they should not meet without
giving encouragement and sympathy TO the
soldiers in The field and to the cabinet at
home, but that there is any sort of religious
necessity for the reelection of Mr.. Grant
as president of the United States is so SUI
prsmely ridiculous that we can scarcely
credit the telegraphic reports of the meeting.
Things have come TO pretty pass If Mr..
Grant has become religious necessity, or
his political supremacy longer to be desired.
While the very air of the whole country
smells of fraud snd corruption; while the
very white house itself has been invaded by
the bailiff of justice. and arrests are screened
by the Intervention OF court martial, and
while habits OF personal infirmity
ara notorious, for a body of Chris
tians TO 90 out o. their way to declare
that MS further prsferment is a necessity
for the safety Of the country is n satire upon
religion, and scandal upon the character
OF the yirtuons and eminent statesmen OF
both parties OF the country. Mr.. Grant is
not the only man in a population of forty
millions OF people that can save our hber-
ties. Mr.. Grant is tolersbly good judge of
horses, was fair soldier, but he has not
proved in statesmsnship that the world was
awaiting his coming to rule in America in
order that tho millennium might be started.
There were many resolutions that
might have been more appropriate for the
religious meeting over which Bishop Haven
presided They might have resolved that
drunkenness is 6 great sin, that evil sssoci-
atoms have demoralizing effects, that steal
ing 5 forbidden by positive commandment,
that shielding iniquity is psrtsking in the
ofense, and dozens OF other things peril
nsnt somewhat 70 the public and private
character Of ruler. But to pass by such
legitimate themes, sins of the day, sins in
nigh places, and simply say that Grant is a
necessity, would appear q prostitution OF
religious functions, an intrusion of politi-
cal sentiment averse to the moral instincts
and religious sensibility of the people,
clothed In religious gsrb, that can but
swaken disgust in three-fourths, if not nine
senths, ofthe people Of the whole land.
The Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1868-1895, 1875-12-08

The Journal, having authority from Gov
ern0T Morton 10 deny as false that which 1t
published few days before in its own col
umns, that he favored a repeal of the re-
sumption act, like true organ, changes 1t
bsss the finance question. In opening
out on the financial question 1t claims the
right 70 change it's policy as often as 1t may
elect. but rather congrstulates itself that it
occupies the same ground that 1t did few
weeks ago, Mr.. Morton evidently having
given that permission.
Let us examine the true inwaTdness of
tie Journals position on finance as it now
dsines it. The Sentinel ventures to say
that its sails are not yet properly set to
catch the greenbsck breeze that is blowing
Ia the West. The people will not be able TO
understand what the Journal meaus when
IL says it does not favor the repeal OF the re-
sumption act and still opposes contraction OF
the currency. The people will not believe
that The Journal fsvors letting the currency
alone atits present volume when greenbacks
are being retired every day by the operation
of The resumption law. They will not be-
hsve that tho Journal favors the retirement
mp the barrier that only S400,0O0,O0O OF
green backs can be issued, as the peo-
pie know full well that the same
power that limited the greenbaek
issue TO 100000 600 could repeal the
limiting clsuse as they did after the former
issues, which, also, had similar limiting
clauses. In TACT, every position that the
Journal assumes is contradictory and
shows clearly that it is simply trim
ming TO catch the unwsry at the sugges-
ton OF Mr.. Morton. In this state
the Journal very we'll knows that three
fourrhs of is own party are now clearly
committed 20 the greenback policy, and this
effort q mere subterfuge to prevent their
rsnouncine q party allegiance that is
pursuing steadily contraction, disturbing
commerce and producing the ruin of thous-
snds. The people viii not trust to lead
ership so equivocsl; that openly processes to
be ready to change in a fortnight.

THE MAGNETIC / SYSTEM.

Drs. Darrin & Aerrill's practice Is mostly In
diseases regarded as incurable. Their treatment
sin some respects peculiar 10 themselves, and
although there have been men in all ages who
have had the same magnetic power over dis
eases, both OF the body and mind, yet few have
seemed to possess IL 20 such an extent m nearly
all diseases. Recognizing the most commend
able ideas and principles of the prevailing
methods of practice, and often making use of
them. they do not so much come in conflict
with other modes they assist and surpass
them. So powerful is this magnetic influence
that persons who have many years suffered
have been restored to health in an almost in
credible short space OF time. 1t Will not re-
store a lost member OF the body, nor perform
other impossibilltIes: but II viii in a majority
OF cases give relief and often cure where other
remedies have failed. Are medicines needed =?
Joined with magnetism they will accomplish
greater and quicker results than can be obtained
from drugs alone. Not only is It's power ac-
knowledged by eminent physicians Of every
other school of practice, but they frequently re-
ceive the treatment for themselves and fami-
lies, as well rs recommend IL TO their patients.
But the only method by which those not IA
miliar with the system can judge of It's merits
Is by its results. During the past month We
have several times published individual cases
OF unquestionable authenticity, showing the re-
markable nature and permanency OF their
cures. Now, in order to show TO some degree
the varied character OF the maladies that come
under their care we give list OF the diseases ac
tually treated by them since their arrival in
this city four weeks ago, merely remarking
that no one OF the number has received six con-
secutive treatments without manifest improve
ment, while some have been cured in less time

Chronic Rheumatism, Deafness, Dyspepsia,
Dropsy, Epilepsy, elect, Heart disease, Iu-

Mr.. John III. Sullivan informs us that the
board OF directors of the Louisville narrow
gauge railroad have instructed him to pre-
pare an amendment to the charter of th e
company terminating the road at Milton
KY, point opposite this city. We under
stand from Mr.. 8. that this Is done with a
view OF ultimately crossing the river at this
city either by means at bridge or transfer
boats, and continuing the road up the river
on the Indiana side. 1t Is generally
understood by railroad men who have
been over the ground, that the road from
this point to Cincinnati can be made much
cheaper on this side Of the river than the
other. III this can be accomplished, we can
see how it will prove q benefit to Madison.
Not so much from the fact that the road is
to cross here, but in the almost absolute
certainty that it would lead TO the building
of other narrow-gauge roads from this city
in different directions out into the richest
portions of this and the adjoining counties.
Already we hear the subject discussed of a
narrow gauge road from this city to the
coal fields Of Clay county, passing through
Hanover, Kent, Woostertown, Frankfort,
and the richest portions of Jackson county.
1t is said that these roads can be built at
broad gauge roads. A number OF these
roads leading into the city would work an
immense advantage to us in the way OF
bringing the farmers produce to this mar
ket, either Tor sale or shipment elsewhere,
and furnishing cheap transportation for the
TINKER that grows in abundance all around
us, but too far off TO te available at the
heavy cost OF wagon transporlation.-Madi
