THAT FEE AND SALARY BILL.

The attorney general yesterday, in answer
to questions from the auditor of state. pre-
pared the following opinion in regard to the
Fee and Salary bill:
OFFIc OF ATTORNEY GENERAL.
INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. %, 1875.
Hon. f. Henderson, Auditor OF State.
SIR: L have the honor to acknowledge
the receipt of your communication OF the
18th inst, in which you request my opinion
as to the construction of the act pub
lished in the acts of the regular session
of 1875, page 81, and of section 80 of
the tee and salary act, approved March
u, 1875. The bill on page 81, aforesaid,
was passed by the House and Senate
respectively during the regular session OF
the legislature. But it was not presented
to the governor for his signature until March
Is, 1875, the regular session having finally
adjourned on the Sth, previous, and q
special session having convened on the 9th
which still in session on the 18th afore-
said. The governor did not sign the bill,
his private secretary writing upon it the fol-
lowing: "Note-This bill was delivered TO
the governor on Monday, March 10, 1875, ana
not before. Samuel X. DOwney, private
| secretary" No further acefon was taken on
the bill either in the House or in the Senate.
In my opinion the bill never became law.
The constitution of Indiana provides that
mo bill shall be presented to the governor
| Within Two Gays next previous 10 LDB nDal
| adjournment of the general assembly," Also,
sill any bill shall not be returned by the gov
ernor within three days, Sundays ex-
cepted, after it shall have been pre-
sented to him, It shall be a law, without
his signature, unless the general adjourn
ment shall prevent its return; in which
case it shall be law unless the governor,
| within five days shall file such bill, with his
objections thereto, in the Office of the secre-
tary of state, etc." Although my opinion
on this subject is advisory only, L can not
undertake discussion of the questions in
volved, within the space OF an opinion. But
L respectfully refer to the following cases
viz: Tarlton VS.. Pegs, Is Ind, "a
Van Dorm VS.. Bodley, 50 Ind, 422; Evans
etc. VS.. Brown. 80 Ind, 5l4 Coleman VS..
Dobbins, 9TH Ind, loo; COoley's Constitu.
tional Limitations, 1873, ct seq. 1t follows frCm
my views upon the bill above mentioned thai
section 80 of the tee and salary act of 1875 i:
the law governing the matters to which il
relates. The provisions of said section 81
are so plain as to need no Interpretation.
viii add, that in my opinion, the act ap
proved December 6. 1872, Acts 1872, page 81
does not affect the question.

The combat of observers over the question
whether Gen. Sherman refused to shake
hands with Secretary Stanton, in the great
review of the Army of the West, in 1866,
wakes warmer. The last publication is let
ter to the Boston Advertiser, under the ini-
tails of G. s. H., which we take to mean Mr..
George S. Hale mot Mr.. George s. Hilliard),
OF that city. MIR. Hale says, in confirmation
OF Gen. Sherman and contradiction of the
New York Sun, that the following is the
account Of "an eyewitness of the affair:
"On the second day of the great review,
when Sherman's army passed before the
President, l occupied seat on the grand
stand, about dozen feet to the right Of the
box where the Presidential party sat. As the
occupants naturally turned to the right to see
the approaching columns, had good view
Of them all, and my attention was frequently
drawn from the troops to the distinguished
men who sat there. 1t was understood that
Sherman would dismount soon after passing
this stand, and, taking seat by the Presi-
dent, himself review the army as it passed.
Sherman's relations to Stanton were well
known in military circles, and as the
latter sat near the President, I had |
some curiosity to watch the meeting. |
Sherman sat on the Presidents right, |
though not directly next him. When Sher-
man mounted the steps many hands were
outstretched, which he cordially shook, so
that his own was naturally extended. As be
reached Stanton the Secretary put out his
hand, but Sherman refused it, throwing his
down by his side with an impatient gesture
For a moment held my breath, fearing some
violent rejoinder from Stanton for this public
insult. and perhaps an alteration. But all
was over more quickly than can tell it.
Sherman had finished his greetings and taken
his seat. The troops were moving ON, en-
crossing general attention, and this whole
scene might have passed unnoticed by any
,ne not watching for it."

It was the delicate and refined Keats. he
whose young life came to so sorrowful close
in its very April-the sweet singer whose
being was in such perfect accord with the
wondrous harmonies and beauties of nature,
who gave forcible utterance 10 this great
truth: "There is no greater hell than the
failure in great object" The expression oc-
ours in his preface to Endymicn, the harsh
criticisms on which exquisite product of his
youthful and glowing fancy, ate like
canker into his sensitive heart, so that he
died at the age of twenty-six What Keats
hopes were, and what he must therefore have
suffered from iu.timed and rude censure, we
may infer from the following rhapsody, ere
to use his own expression, she leaped head
long into the sea !" Of poesy in Endymion:
Therefore, It's with full happiness thatI
Will trace the story of Endymion.
The very music of the name has gone
Into my being, and each pleasant scene
Is growing fresh before me as the green
OF our own valleys 80 will begin
Now while can not hear the citys din;
Now while the early builders are just new,
And run in mazes Of the youngest hue
About old forests while the willow trails
Its delicate amber; and the dairy pals
Bring home increase Of milk: And as the year
Grows lush in juicy stalks I'll smoothly steer
Ny little boat, for many quiet hours,
With streams that deepen freshly into bowers.
Many and many . verse hope to write,
Before the daisies, vermeil trimmed and white,
Hide in deep heritage; and ere yet the bees
Hum about globes OF clover and sweet peas,
must be n. ar the middle OF my story.
Q, may no wintry season, bare and hoary,
Bee See it half-fnished; but let autumn bold,
With universal tinge OF sober gold,
be all about me when make NV end |,
And now, at once, adventuresome, send
Ny herald thought into wilderness:
There let its trumpet blow, and quickly dress
Ny uncertain path with green, that may speed ]
Easily onward through flower and weed

Conviction Of "Spirit Photographers" In
Paris.

The Paris correspondent of the Londor
Daily Ne1s writes on June IS: "a strange
trial has taken place before the Correctional
Tribunal of Paris, and it has resulted in the
conviction of certain Spirit Photographers
for swindling. Buguet, photographer, OF
No. 5 Boulevard Montmartre, allied himself
with N. Leymane, the editor of the Revue
Spirite, who wrote about him and published
fac-similes of his portraits, and with an
American named Firman. from whom he
learned the art of persuading people that he
could, If they only willed strong enough,
coDjure up and photograph likeness of any
deceased relation and friend. For q long
time the firm did large business. Twenty
francs was the ordinary fee, but many
wealthy people voluntarily paid 2OOO 5000
and even 1000 francs. Never was fraud more
clearly proved. The operators spirit
box was produced in Court it
contained hundreds of portraits of
men, women. boys and girls of all ages
traits, young lady, who acted as cashier,
adroitly engaged them in conversation in the
waiting-room, and generally contrived to find
some indications of the pbysiognomy of the
person whom it was desired to evoke. Then
one OF the numerous heads was selected,
stuck upon q doll dressed up in muslin, and
Q hazy portrait Of spirit was produced from
A. Buguet guarded himself by saying he
could never guarantee likeness, because
much depended on the strength of faith of
the applicant, and, moreover, spirits were
very capricious and sometimes when you
called for one another would come; but in |
very many instances the force of the imagi- |
nation was SO strong that his dupes believed |
they saw the portraits of their relations.
They burst into tears, fell upon their knees,
kissed the photographs, and were prof1se in
expressions of gratitude to the Professor as
well as lavish Of gifts to him.
Notwithstanding the palpable exposure of
the imposture in open court, host of re-
spectacle witnesses, including Russian Mar
Iuis. the Compile de Bullett, Mr.. Sullivan,
formerly United States Minister at Madrid,
;wo French colonies and several ladies, ap.
2eared for the prisoners and. undismayed by
he sarcasms of the presiding Judge, pro-
ested that they had seen unmistakable por-
rats of deceased relatives. The eminent
counsel for the defense, M. Lachaud, spoke
Or two hours, and alluded to Moses, Isaiah,
Eertullian and other authorities on spirits.
he court, however, thought the charge fully
roved, and sentenced Burguet and Leymarie
Q one years imprisonment, and Firman to
* months. 1t is curious that the prosecu- l.,
lon was not instituted on the com plant of
ny customer, but spontaneously by the po- Z
Ice for reasons not explained.
