The editor of the Madras Times, a
member of the Relief Committee, writes
under date Aug. 1 as follows: ssThe
population of Southern India more or
less afflicted by famine numbers "a, O0O,-
900. In the most favorable circumstan-
ces at least one-sixth will die. Twenty
three people in all have died of starva-
ton in Bengal. In Madras no camp of
1000 rises morning after morning with
out leaving as many as thirty corpses. In
the interior the distress is most fearful.
One gentleman passing down the valley
in the Wylaad district counted 20 dead
bodies on the road. A coffee-planter
seeking shelter from rain in hut found
six decomposing corpses in it. On any
and every day mothers may be seen in
the streets of Madras Offering their chill
dren for sale, while the founding por-
ton of the poor house is full of infants
found by the police on the roads desert
ed by their parents. Since the famine
began, 100000 people have died. ''The
first big tragedy may be expected in
Mysore. In that province, indeed, infor-
nation has reached me from Bangalore
of two cases of cannibalism.'

WE received call, on..Thursday, from
a gentleman who gave his name as Jacob
Hoffman, and said he was a resident of
Cato, Manitowoc county, and by profess
sion teacher. He said he was Swede
by birth and by ancestry; that one month
ago he was passing through this city on
his way home, and stopped at tavern
in the outskirts of the city. on the Cal
umet road that he was there taken to
task for speaking English instead of
German, on the ground that he was
German and sought to ignore his native
tongue !; that he declared he was not
German by birth OF ancestry, knew only
a few isolated words in the language,
and could neither read nor speak il :;
that the accusation was still made against
him, finally by two young men, who
intercepted him as he was about to go
on his journey, sent for constable and
procured his arrest on trumped UP
charge of personal threats against them,
and was taken to jail for the night that
next morning he was taken before JUS
tice Wedig, where his aecusers appear
ed with their false charges, and without
being allowed counsel or to say a word
in his defense, he was committed to jail
for thirty days and that he had that
morning received his discharge. He
said he was a soldier in Company K of
the 18th Wisconsin Volunteers, and
thought such indignities lily -requited
the services he had rendered the country
in that capacity.
Such is the story he told. Ii true, it
was simply an outrage that cannot be
too severely denounced, and should
meet condign punishment. The liberty
of the citizen is not to be trifed with in
that way.-She6oygar Times.

AN IMPROVEDFEELINGA AMONG THE
PEOPLE.

The State journal takes this view of
the case: Gas the time approaches the
people will be called upon to act politi-
cally there is a greatly improved feeling
in the ranks Of the Republican party.
No intelligent observer can fail to see
that this is the case. Confidence is be-
ing restored. The policy of the Admin
istration at first, had the effect to de-
press the spirits of some Republicans;
but as time passes, and due reflection
is given to the measures of the Presi-
dent, this depression is removed. There
is evinced a more sanguine tone, and q
more determined purpose. Republi-
cans are making ready to enter upon the
campaign nov before US witha much
more confident and resolute spirit-a
spirit that cannot fail to win. The more
the Civil Service Reform measures are
considered, the better they are liked by
the people, The first thought was that
they deprived ofice-holders of priv
leges that would prevent their duty to
their party. This is not the case to any
great extent. The Presidents order
does indicate that federal officers shall
not become party leaders; shall not
be dictators, and these are the very
buiuSS oitt.o H1eeIJ POoPio Low OpJOOtOS
to their doing in past years. But the
right to be active partisans, to speak and
to write for the party, is expressly re-
served for these officers. It was an eff
fort to remove the Objectionable features
and to retain the good ones. Those
who have hithertofore claimed that Of
flee holders have been too oficious Ill
party matters will be relieved by this
order; and as many have refused to be
active workers on account of this Off
ciousness, it is hoped that these persons
will now come forward and take an &C.
tive part in caucusses, conventions, and
in organizing the party for victory! If
they do not do so, it will afford good
reason to suspect that their former COM
plants and actions have resulted from
pure soreheadness, and that they were
not sincere in the positions they assum-
ed. The President no doubt honestly
seeks the best results, and honestly
seeks to strengthen rather than weaken
the Republican party; and the signs are
encouraging, that the masses will arouse
and do their full duty, and achieve
noble, Republican triumph.

A HAIRED CHILD.-We must say that
the child Oracle Gilbert, the little daug1-
ter of Mr.. and Mrs. Giles Gilbert. who
resides Is miles east of Angola, in North
west township, Williams county, O., is
the greatest living curiosity we have ever
seen. The child is about IS months old,
finely formed, bright, sprightly and
healthy, and almost entirely covered with
hair. The hair on its head is some II
or Is inches in length, and is very heavy.
It's whiskers are three or four inches in
Ienght. On its back, body, arms and
legs, is thick, heavy, but fine, silky
growth Of hair, covering almost its entire
body, and some two or three inches in
length. And, strange to say, there is
no responsiveness in the sight, no deform-
ity, and, moreover, no humbug. Bar
mum, with all his grand spIurges and big
blowing as to the curiosities and hum
bugs he exhibits, never has b. d a real,
genuine actuality. living curiosity,
human Or otherwise, that surpasses this
pretty little child, Oracle Gilbert.-,Steu-

"A TRUE MAN"

Under this head, the Albany Eve,ai,ag
Journal briefly condences the facts con-
tanned in recent article in the State
Journal showing that Hon. T. o. Howe
had declined the Chief Justiceship Of
the United States Supreme Court, ''the
greatest Judicial station in the land and
the highest prize lawyer can secure
rather than to allow those who elect
ed him to loose seat in the Senate and
see his State misrepresented." After
stating the principal points in the case,
the Journal closes its article with the
following high and deservid compliment
to our distinguished Senator:
''This eminently honorable action
on the part of Senator Howe is in keep
ing with his whole course and character.
He is one of the truest and worthiest men
now in public hfe-a man whose mind
whose pen is as bright as his speech is
earnest and vigorous. IF he were not
so good Senator he would shine as q
writer, and if his strong convictions and
clear penetration did not stand out first,
the merry twinkle of his humor would
suffice to win attachment. Though his
head is silvered with the frost of years,
his eye has lost none of its brilliancy and
his heart none of its fidelity to the true
cause which he has SO long and so ably
upheld. We hope it may be many years
yet before the Senate looses the voice
and the counsels of Timothy o. Howe. -

ALTHOUGH Russia is only in the fifth
month of the war, her paper currency
has been swelled to $40, 0OO, 900, a sum
only within S1iO. 100000 of the legal
tenders in circulation here in 1865, after
q conflict which lasted four years. As
it is expected that Russia will have to
issue 1928, 500, 900 more should the war
last till autumn, 1t is obvious that the
strain on her resources is very great and
that her credit is in serious danger Her
internal resources are, however, almost
snexaustible.

THE latest crop reports from Great
Britain promise anything but a favor
able prospect for the farmers. In every
part of the country the season is excep-
tionally late. In some places, notably
in the north of Scotland, the delay is
from three weeks to a month. The
changeable and unpropitious nature of
the weather has been so marked that
parallel can not be found without going
back to 1886. In several places there
are indications of disease in turnips and
potatoes. While no real want is antici-
pated, the returns will certainly be be-
low the averas of former years.
