both combined, have brought about state
of things in this country indicating the near
approach of the millennial dawn. The rad
ical party is still in power, and presidential
fraud is at the head of affairs. Under radi-
cal rule men are rewarded for committing
crimes, and perjury is bid for in the open
market by John Sherman, secretary of the
treasury. Such things ought to disappear
quite independent of Macaulay's prediction,
for rsdicalism is worse than tramps and
communism comblned-for it is the prolific
mother of all conceivable crimes. The
supreme demand is to again overwhelm
the radical party at the polls and then see to
it that no radical returning board, aided by
visiting statesmen and perjured villains,
wrest victory from the democratic party and
bring universal suffrage and universal edu-
cation again into disrep1te.

The New York Evening Post, an out and
out radical sheet, does not fail to see that the
Louisville Courier-Journal in its professed
friendship for Indiana democracy is doing
about as much harm as it Is possible for
treachery to accomplish, and says:
In an extraordinary article ON Indiana poll
tics the Louisville COurler-JOurnal says, with
all the force which double LEADS can give that
Senator voorhees, IS 'all wrong in his f1nan-
clal theories" that ''the financial issue" is "a
nasty little wrangle unworthy of such abilities
as his" that 'it Is pitful to read the comments
of the money-gruDbing eastern press upon this
truly representative American" that "he he's
gone mad about the finances, that he is to be
"squelched by the organs of the money pow
err" that she is the man the money bags fear"
that money is not yet the alpha ana omega
OF American politics." and that 1--WE ignore
financial differences and go In for DaD." II
the beginning of the congressional canvass
produces such a mixture of inconsistent nom
sense as this, what may we expect by election
day or in the campain of 1880?
Indiana democrats can not too soon or too
emphatically indicate to the Courier-Jour-
nal that its proiessed friendship is infinitely
worse than its open hostility. Such WIDE
ly known nincompoop as Henri Watterson
ought not to be permitted to exercise any
influence in the council of the democratic
party of Indiana

NORTHERN papers are continually telling
southern planters what they should do to
get rich. Instead of being planters, devot-
ing their capital and energies to the cultiva-
ton of the great southern staples, these
northern advisers tell the southern planters
to turn farmers, and cultivate a little of
everything that their soil and climate will
permit. If corn is high, plant corn. If ba-
con is scarce and dear, raise hogs and make
of farm products The New York Daily Bull
letin has the following upon the difference
between cash and credit for corn and bacon,
as prevailing in the several sections OF that
state July /:
The Indiana State sentinel. [volume] (Indianapolis) 1868-1895, 1878-07-31

The above table shows at a glance what
enormous per cents farmers are required TO
pay, for the privilege OF credit, for articles that
should be produced on every farm. 1t would
be unjust to lay the blame entirely on the corn
ana bacon merchants. They sell these sup
plies at very low rates (which probably yield
them fair profit for cash and the per cent.
charged on credit sales is largely the measure
OF the risk incurred. 1t is said that "time is
money" in this case time costs much money.
Morai: Farmers should raise their own sup
plies.
The simple point of all this is in showing
the southern planter that cash down is bet
ter than credit, and still the south, in carry
ing forward its vast planting enterprises has
found it necessary to draw on its credit.
The north has responded, and though some
times the difference between cash and credit
has been so great as to attract attention and
suggest the abandonment of northern pur-
chases the southern people are aware that
their advancement TO wealth lies in the
cultivation of cotton, rice and : sugar,
rather than corn and hogs-in
planting rather than farming. Besides
national prosperity is largely dependent
upon the exchange of domestic products.
The west and northwest can raise corn and
bacon cheaper than the south, and since the
south can realize larger profits by growing
cotton than corn, it Is profitable for her to
purchase the bulk of her provisions of the
west. When the time comes that all can
pay cash for everything purchased, We pre-
sumo no one will object; until then, those
who advise the south to raise all the corn
and hogs required for domestic consumption
simply because the credit system is
more costly than the cash system,
exhibit such a want of information
as to what is bess for the south, that to be gov
erned by their advice would lead to such seri
Gus business complications that the only
remedy would be To go back to first principles
that is to say, raise cotton, rice and sugar,
and purchase corn and bacon of the west, for
cash or credit, as low as possible.

THERE Is more government money, paper
and coin together in circulation in the United
States now than there was in 1873 before the
panic more than three times as much paper
money as there ever was at any time before
the war, and the amount per capita to the
population Of the country is considerably more
than twice as great as il was at the beginning
of the war.-Journal-
In 1866 the currency in circulation
amounted to 1893. 7O2, 726, and in 1873 it
had been contracted to the amount Of
81, O2O 4lO,977, leaving only $7S3 29l, 749 In
circulation. 1t was this contraction that
brought about the panic, which continues,
and which, in recorded failures alone, has
cost Indiana about S26, O00, 900.

DRIVEN INSANE BY SCANDAL.-The
Rev. A. G. Dunsford, formerly of the
Baptist Church, at Waterford, and whose
home is at Avon, N. Y, has lost his wits
through excitement and nervous prostra-
tion occasioned by wicked scandal that
was circulated against him. Recently
he was called to preach at Adrian, Mich
igan, but is now residing at his home in
Avon, N. Y, cared for by his devoted
wife and friends. How the first scandal
started it is impossible to tell, but it
spread and grew in magnitude until the
church at Adrian has felt compelled to
call for an investigation. The chief
charge TO which al! the rest of the gossip
is attached is, says the Troy Press, 50
monstrous as to be absurd. A thorough
investigation has shown that Mr.. Duns.
ford is innocent and at the church trial
he will be acquitted. But to the minister
the blow has been a disastrous one. Be-
ing of nervous disposition and tempera-
ment, and weakened by his labors in the
ministry, when he learned of the terrible
stories that We're circulated regarding
him he was thrown into convulsions, and
it perhaps would have been as well if he
had died. for, brooding over the scandal,
and its terrible effect upon his life work
he has become deranged, and it is posi-
ble that his reason may never be restor-
ed. A thorough examination of all the
reports against DR.. Dunsford is now be-
ing made by the church at Adrian, and
it is more than probable that justice will
be meted out to some of the gossips who
have made wreck Of this mans life and
character.-Syrdcuse Cou1ic

UTILIZING BITS OF SoAP.-Instead of

become too small for convenient hand
ling, make square flannel bag oisuitable
size; leave one end partly open, and put
in the pieces as they collect; when i. is
full baste up the opening and it makes a
nice bath-tub arrangement. Another
way is to add little water, set them in q
tin on the stove, and let them simmer
slowly. When cold, you will have toler-
ably good soft soap, just the thing for
putting in your wash boiler or washing
tins with. Or by evaporating part of the
water you may get the soap hard enough
