Carl Schurz's breechcs pocket must be
getting ragged. The German vote that
he used to keep there seems to drop out
Ike line sand from corn sieve. The
only two Republican German journals in
Northern Indiana, the TdgJiah and Voiks-
tre,Ud, of Fort Wayne, have ut the
eleventh hour discovered the hdcous
company the support OF Hayes put them

OF reform and bosom Of publication, our

trusted as to honesty, independ-
ence, or intelligence. declare that
his chances have lesscned perceptibly
since the inglorious Saratoga muddle
ana the growing misrepresentation OF De-
coy Bliss income fabrication. This may
be true. The Saratoga fdur pas which
has been more than atoned for by the nom
ination OF Adams: Robinson, and Hub
bard, never created any feeling in the
west save regret. What people want out
here Is reform, and it Is impossible, with
the old parties. to get it from the bottom.
The yearning for a change is stronger
now than 1t was during the amazing dis
closures OF last winter, since the people
see with genuine alarm that the rogues,
unabashed by these disclosures, are busy
ing themselves on every stump, claiming
support on issues wholly extraneOus
from the vital questions at stake. The
speeches Of the Ingersolls, Blaines,
Logans, and MortOns arc do.

We judge these things from copious pri-

over the west. and from the constant and

as independent as it is possible
for an honest journal to be with such
foul conditions to choose from. 1t will
surprise the average party person to
learn that the burden OF complaint with
the Independent voter is to the effect
that the Times gives too much con sidera-
ton to the sham claims of the sham can
didacy of Hayes. They hold that Gov.
Hayes, found in such company. is enti-
tied to no more consideration than the
Buffers, Chambers, and Mortons who
are giving their time to the present I'M
speakably base canvass. The truth is.
however, that nOthingis better calculated
to grind the corrupt leadership of the
present dominant party into fragments
than the wrath which their own shame
lessness arouses. That alone would
make the election OF Tilden certainty II

MARK TWAIN BUYS HORSE AT AUC-
TIoN.-At a lecture in New York Mark
Twain related an anecdote in relation o
buying q horse, which he told as follows
| bought the horse at auction, they called
it a Mexican plug" | did not know wha
that was, but supposed it was all right.
The brother-in-law of the auctioneer took
me one side aud said. Now, | could cheat
you, but | won't; see you are Il stranger.
Now that horse is a genuine Mexican
plug and, besides, he can 'out-buck' any
thing In the country" | did not Anow
what "bucking" was, but wanted horse
that could excel in something, SO bought
him. The next afternoon l thought |
would ride him; so | brought him out, aud
two men held his head and another man
held him down to the ground by his tail,
and | mounted, and just as soon as they
let 20, that horse brought all his feet to-
gether In a bunch and lowered his back
aud then suddenly elevated it, throwing me
some feet into the air. | went straight up
and came straight down and lit on the SAD

This time | lit on the neck of the animal
aud hung fast. Then he rose on his hind
Ieet and went through with all the gym

Iy ended by throwing me up again, and
while | was IN the air heard some one
say, "Ah, how he bucks" So that wa,
"oucking." Before | got d"wn some one

was not there. Plenty OF friends gather
round to offer Inc sympathy. They always
do when you want 70 be alone. | wanted

SO sore and bruised aud shaken. put one

An American Girls Experience.

| Glanced To meet. a short time since, a
delightful. youug lady who went TO Milan,
Italy, last summer to complete her musi-
cal education. She tells some hard stories
Oi the manners of foreigners. She was in
company with young lady from Ohio, and
says that the life OF a young unprotected
female in Milan in worse than bondage.
She is never free from insult in the street
and is obliged to keep herself shut up all
the time TO avoid insults in the house. She
says that the universal verdict of those who
have tested the resources Of musical edu-
cation in Italy, is, that the advantages
over New York and Boston are inapprecIa-
Bile, The prices Of instruction are exorbi-
tant the practice very slight, and the mode
OF living disgusting. The only protection
from being swindled in everything is the
constant presence OF a male relative, and
Willingness to submit TO the scandal
which public resistance to such swiudles
will bring. She says there are hundred
American girls taking singing lessons in
Milan, three-tourths, of whom regret the
journey, but are held to it by pride and the
tact of being laughed at it they return with
out the culture afforded by teachers inferi-
or to those found in our own county,

LARGE FAMrLIEs.-Dianora Frescobaldi,
an Italian lady of the sixteenth century,
was the mother of fifty two children. The
inscription on her famous portrait by
Bronzino in the San Donate collection,
says that she never had less than three
children at birth, and there is tradition
in the Frescobadi family that she once had
six! Brand, in his History of Newcas-
tie" mentions as a well-attested fact that
weaver in Scotland had, by one wife,
sixty-two children, all of whom lived to be
baptized; and in Aberconway Church may
still be seen monument to the memory of
Nicholas Hooker, who was himself forty
first child. and the father twenty-seven
