Terribly was he deluded. but we have heart
tear for him.
George w. johnson did indeed die rebel
in arms, sealing with his life the convictions
which he held in common with the hosts of
his countrymen who fell at Shiloh and
the innumerable battlefields of the war; and
history will yet do justice to the love of lib
erty and free government which led him to
offer up his life as q sacrifice to principle.
He at least demonstrated TO Mr.. Prentice
that the propositions that he submitted for
his consideration were in his opinion, worth
dying for. But had he lived and returned
TO Kentucky after the war, he would have
found himself not the only rebel, but that
Prentice, and Garrett Davis, and Rousseau,
and Bramlette, and nearly all the promi-
nent Union men who differed with him in
the beginning of the war were classified as
rebels at its close.

SINGULAR SUIT.
Husband Claims Damages Because of Hi
Wife's Lack of an Education

A Husband Claims Damages Because of His
Wife's Lack of an Education.
ISt. LOUIS Globe-Democratl
A very singular and interesting question
is involved in the suit of Alice and j. J.
Ryan VS.. Cornelius Lynch, which was set
for trial yesterday before Judge Wickham,
but was laid over until to-day. 1t seems
that when Alice was IA years of age Mr..
Lynch took her from an orphan asylum and
adopted her, or at least treated her as his
own child. She was an orphan, without
relatives or friends to care for her, and Mr.
Lynch, a timer on Franklin avenue, gave
her comfortable home. He dressed her as
we'll as his means would allow, and she
grew up handsome, bright and intelligent
young woman; but her education was sadly
neglected, and she learned little of books
although belle among the young women of
the neighborhood. In 1877 she was married
to young Ryan, who on finding that the.
beautiful casket was devoid of the treasures
OF book Learning was greatly shocked and
disappointed. The blame for this Ignorance
was thrown upon Mr.. Lynch, and SUIT for
damages was filed against him for neglect
ing to perform the dulles OF parent and
guardian by sending his ward to school The
amount claimed is Sc 200, of which $1,000
are for the loss of educational advantages
and 81, 200 for services for seven years
Mr.. Lynch puts in an offset against the
amount charged for services by charging her
for articles of dress, such as nightgowns
drawers, hose, shoes hats, corsets, dresses of
various kinds. punches of flowers, etc, be-
sides 81 prayer book. As for the neglect
of education, he claims that was the girls
own fault because she refused to attend
school, and when sent would play truant
and 60 promenading with other girls, deyot-
ing herself more to the excitement of capti-
waiting beans than to the task of filling her
mind with knowledge of books
large number of witnesses were in at
tendance, among them Professor Harris,
superintendent of the school board, who will
be examined as an expert on the value of
education to young woman with an INTEL
lectual husband and no money in her purse,
A colored girl will be put on the stand to
offset Professor Harris, and prove that
Alice refused 10 go to school,
and wouldn't learn notf,in'
nohow; that she (tha colored sIster) worked
for Mr.. Lynch for 81 month, making the
pies and baking the bread and cooking the
meat, and yet found time to go to school
and learn to read and write and make q
spectacle woman of herself.
As education is not compulsory in st.
Louis, and a father can not be sued for neg
lecting to educate his child, the question
will arise in the case whether a guardian
who adopts an orphan can be made to pay
damages for neglecting to do what a natural
father is not obliged to do. w. H. H. Rus
sell is counsel for the plaintiffs, and Will
combat the old adage that Ignorance il
bliss" and contend that ''tis education
forms the common mind,' and girls that
won't go to school ought to be made to 70.

second man. Altar his nomination, through
all the campaign in which he had profound
personal interest In the protracted and In
tensely exciting eontest which followed the
election. he was virtually ignored by Tllden
and Tilden's confedesates. treated a. though
he had no part or lot in the matter, neg
lected and pushed aside As though he were
nobody. His name was hardly ever men,
toned by Tilden and his understrappers.
He was left out in the cold by the willy and
selfish man@uverer who had managed to get
himself at the head of the ticket, before he
was counted out by the electoral commits
sion, about which he was not consulted. Mr.
Hendricks has at least ordinary self respect
He will be likely to think twice before he
consents to act as second man on any ticket
headed by Samuel j. Tilden. Mr.. Henry
Watterson's flint-lock has flashed in the pan.
Three Democrats stand prominently be-
fore the country to-day as candidates for the
presidency-Mr. Bayard, of Delaware; Mr..
Thurman, of Ohio, and Mr.. Hendricks, of
Indiana. They are able, honorable men.
The country would indeed be fortunate to
secure the services of either one of them as
president. Other things being equal, the
next candidate of the Democracy should be
a Western man. Between Senator Thurman
and Ex-Governor Hendricks 1t would be very
hard indeed to choose. But Mr.. Hendricks
has one claim to the nomination which Mr..
Thurman can not urge, in the fact that for
the sake of the party and to strengthen a
weak ticket he consented to take the second
place when fairly entitled to the first place
in 1876, and was counted out OF the vice
presidency, to which he was fairly elected.
If he is drafted into the service again it must
not be as the second man."
The views expressed by our New York
contemporary are manifestly in harmony
with the sentiments of the great body of the
people South and West, and it is not too
much to say that in the East Mr.. Hendricks
would command larger Democratic vote
than any other name mentioned in connec-
ton with the first place on the ticket At
any rate it is well enough to state that the
Courier Journal ticket which places Mr..
Hendricks second, is not endorsed by the
Democracy anywhere.

This table shows the rapid growth of the
petroleum industry in 10 years, q growth
which, if continued, will cause the demand
which will lead producers to less careless
waste of the product than now. But what
we would call more special attention to is
the difference in the value. For the first
three years, as above. there was an increase
in the price of oil. In 1864, Il, 000, 900 GAL
Ions sold for $1,000, 600. In the following
year the same amount. in round numbers,
sold for 50 600. O00 In 1866. "a, 600 900 gallons
sold for SIS, 600 900, still further increase in
value. Then production increased, and in
1871 we find that the oil region was selling
132 600, 600 gallons for $34, 900 900. The ex-
ports were four times as much as in 1866,
while the value had not doubled. Then in
1877. were sold 262 .OOO. 900 gallons for $751;
600. 600. and last year it was worse yet, by
giving foreign consumers 2S9 DOC. 900 gallons
for 81, 100000 Here the exports were
increased p 000. 900 gallons with decreased
value of $14 ,000, 900.
Will producers heed the lesson given by
there figures, or can they stand the loss and
survive?

THE FIRST PLACE FoR THOMAS A. HEN
BRICKS.

The New York Evening Express very
kindly takes Mr.. Henry Watterson to task
for intimating that the next presidential
ticket will be, as in 1876, Tilden and Hen
bricks. The Courier Journal man is pro
nounced 'simpulsive," who ''often says ILL
considered and unwise things man
who has an unfortunate penchant
for going off half cooked, as it were." As q
matter of course, such a man is quite likely,
as the Express puts 1t, to make ''unwise,
'impolitlc and premature suggestions" The
Courier-Journal ticket assigns Mr.. Hendricks
the second place on it, and upon
this point the Express puts itself
on record as follows: Thomas
A. Hendricks is one of the ablest
lawyers In the West. He distinguished
himself in Congress by his talents, his fair
ness his wisdom and his moderation. He
commanded the respect of his opponents in
that body by the weight and purity OF his
character ana the sagacIty of his views. He
was one of the best governors Indiana has
ever had. In that Office he displayed re-
markable executive power. He made host
of friends and no enemies, by his high
minded, honorable course. He has the uni.
yersal respect of the people of his State, and
of the whole West for that matter. In many
points he resembles Abraham Lincoln, espe.
cialiy in his honesty, his frankness and
candor. his grip on the common people, his
love of justice, his profound sympathy with
the masses. He was one of the leading
candidates for the nomination in the
Democratic convention in 1876 1t was
with the grestest difficulty that he was pre-
vailed upon by his friends to accept the
nomination for the vice presidency. He
made great sacrifice Of personal interest
and feeling by conseutipg to serve as tho
