There isn't just get great deal of con-
lecture as to who will be the Democratic
candidate for president in 1880. Should,
as some predict, Tilden and Wheeler be
our next president and vice president,
nothing short of death or disease could
keep Hendricks out of the executive chair
in l88l,-i& Louis Republican.
This is true Gov Hendricks is the
most Popular man that ever lived in
Indiana-and justly SO, too. No purer
private charter is sustained by any pub
lie man, and in private life he is model
citizen In every particular, commanding
the highest respect of all classes of people
of all political parties 1t was Hendricks
that saved Indiana in October, and by
that made it possible to elect Tilden. and
he deserves all the good things that can
be said of him-and he is not likely to
ever forfeit the high esteem in which he is
bel d by his countrymen.

Blue Jeans Williams says he doesn't
know of any Democrats, in Indiana or
elsewhere, who desire war. The Morton
tie stories about the belligerent inten-
tions of the 9Th of January convention
are all news to him, and his private
opinion is that they are lies out of the
whole cloth, Blue Jeans says his cleo
ton as governor will make no difference
in his dress or manner of life. He has
money enough to wear broadcloth, if he
chose, but be doesn't choose. 1t seems
that the wealthiest Democratic ladies of
indianapolis are with him in this effort
to make old-time simplicity fashionable
out there Mrs Hendricks has ordered
very plain and cheap dress for Gov.
Williams's Inauguration, and the example
will be widely followed.

INTERMITTENT FEVER Is SO common III
the country as scarcely to need comment.
The causes which produce it are such as
cold, irregular living, over exertion, low
spirits, night air, exposure to miasmatic

edge tools and agricultural implements are
manufactured, the grinder protects bis
lungs from the injurious effect of the DUST

An interesting Marriage Ceremony.

An Interesting marriage Ceremony.
The marriage of Miss Grace Cornelia
Lynde to Mr.. Montgomery Meigs, of Wash
ington, was celebrated last evening at the
residence of the brides parents. The
ceremony was conducted with impressive
solemnity by the Rev. T. I. Holcombc,
according to the services of the Episcopal
church.
The bride, supreme in youth and lowell
ness, stood under marriage bell Of pure
white flowers, surrounded by bevy of
beautiful, brides maids-Miss Macomb,
Miss Meigs, Miss Peasants, Miss Fay,
Miss Carter. and the groom was supported
by Lieut.. Macomb. Mr.. Lynde, Mr.. Pal
mer, DIR. Carter and Lieut.. Ayers.
The arrangements and sdornments Of
the house were worthy of the suspicious
event and of the company assembled to
witness it.
Perhaps no young lady ever left the par
entail roof with more hearty and good wishes
than those which accompany Mrs. Meigs
to her new home. Her virtues and accom-
plishments are such that all who have the
good fortune to know her think of her witt
respect and affection And substan
tial proofs of kindly feelings were
showered upon the pair. There
were many beautiful gifts; eacE
one seeming to have been selected witt
especial care and with an aesthetic sense o
fitness to the cultivated tastes of the hap
Ply recipients
Mr.. and Mrs. Montgomery Meigs will
commence housekeeping at 1909 N. street
Washington, nearly: opposite to the resi-
dence of Maj. Gen. Meigs, @. NJ. G., tn
father of Mr. Meigs,
Many happy new years to them.
The character and the talents OF tn
groom are such that we must admit him t
have fairly won Rock Islands Lowell
daughter. Our only regret is, that i
making one man blest, Mrs Meigs ha
, carried away the sunshine from man
hearts in the home of her childhood.

Washington Special to the New York Herald.

Washington Special to the New York Herald.
Intelligence of which reaches here from
different parts of the country, east as well
as west shows that the 9Th of January is
likely to witness one of the most imposing
public demonstrations this country has
ever seen, Preparations are quietly max
ing in nine or ten northern states for pub
he meetings to be held on that day, not
only in the large cities, but in towns and
villages, by Democrats to protest against
a fraudulent or irregular counting in of a
president. 1t has become known that in
several states and in many localities num-
bers of Republicans who voted for Hayes
and Wheeler have determined to join IN
this protest and demand fair play and an
honest count, There is not the least in-
tention to break the peace, but it is meant
that the protest shall be earnest and show
that the people are attentively watching
what is going on and are not asleep. Let
tiers received here from different states
show that the constant reiteration by lead
ing Republicans here that the vice presi-
dent shall count and declare the vote at
all hazards and the echo of this sentiment
in Republican organs produces great ex-
element and irritation in the public mind,
the people thinking that this question
should be settled by committee of con-
gress and not by predetermined partisan
arrangement.
