The Holiday Season-DonbIc Sheet,


The Indianapolis Sentinel has hoisted at the
top of its editorial page the name OF ex-Gover
nor Hendricks as a candidate for President, sub
ject to the decision Of the National Democratic
Convention. The New York star, which speaks
the sentiments of John Kelly by authority of
the "chef sachem himself welcomes Indi-
anas favorite son to the field" and says the
party could not do better than nominate him
At the St. Louis convention in 1876 Tammany
stood by Mr.. Hendricks to the last, and at
tempted all sorts of combinations TO beat Mr.
Tilden with him. When the convention Insisted
upon nominating Mr.. Hendricks for Vice-pres-
dent his friends maintained that he would not
accept, and there was good deal of trepidation
felt among the leaders lest this might prove
true. On the evening of the last day of the con-
vention the New York and Indiana delegations
met at the Southern Hotel and held a confer
ence. All but about eight of the New York
delegation were warm friends and supporters Of
Tilden from the first the eight were the Tam
manyiteS, who, then as now, hated Tilden. At
the conference that evening Lieutenant-Gover-
nor Dorsheimer and others-who, like him, were
known to have Mr.. Tilden's entire confidence
voluntarily made the pledge that If Governor
Hendricks would consent to accept the second
place on the ticket, he should in 1880 have clear
Held for the first place so far as Mr. Tilden was
concerned. Judge Hanna and the other Indi-
an1ans who had been telegraphing with Cover
nor Hendricks took the proposition under consid-
Grafton, and after an hour or two-time enough to
communicate by telegraph with indianapolis
it was virtually agreed that DIR. Hendricks
should run for Vice President, but that In 1880
he should have the support of Tilden and all his
friends and influence for the nomination for
President. Those who spoke for MI. Tllden said
he did not care for more than one term of the
Presidency. After the electoral commission had
decided in favor of President Hayes it was
known among the friends OF Mr.. Hendricks that
T1lden did not hold himself bound. any longer.
to the agreement because he had "been de-
frauded OF his Office He wanted another chance
at 1t. Mr.. Hendricks friends insisted that the
result was not the fault of their man, and the
agreement should be carried out. Now, Mr..
Dorsheimer and others who were prominent in
speaking for Tilden at that conference, are lead
ing members OF Tammany and bitter enemies
of Tflden. Probably they intend to stick to
their part OF the agreement, and that may ac-
count for the early endorsement of Hendricks
by the Tammany organ.

The fall In gas stocks in Europe and America
following the last reported success of Edson's
electric light indicates that the gas companies,
who have doubtless kept themselves pretty well
advised Of the progress of Edlsons EXP eriments
think there is something in 1t this time The
scientific men, with the exception Of Professor
Proctor, sill doubt whether the Edison light will
prove working success for general lighting
purposes; but that point Is so soon to be tested
practically that it is hardly worth while to
waste very mucl time In discussing the oues-
fion.

Senator Bayard intends to press his resolution
for consideration Immediately after the reas-
sembling of Congress, and this will force dis
cusson of the financial question. There Is no
way OF cutting Off debate in the Senate. No
previous question rules there and Senator has
only to give notice that he wants the floor to OBJ
tain it. Mr.. Bayard evidently means to insist
upon his original resolution providing for an
immediate repeal of the legal-te feature of
the greenbacks He introduced the measure
without consulting single one of his party as
socates, and it is understood that he proposes to
contend for 1t alone, If need be. He has been
somewhat severely criticised within the demo-
cratic circle for having taken upon himself
without even asking anybody's advice, the re-
Sponsibllity of committing his party-aS far as
he could speak for Ito financial theory. He
has probably learned, ere now, that he could
have had the support of some who will remain
silent. If he had only consulted certain of his
party associates before presenting his resolu
ton. The expressions of many of the southern
SenatorS-about all the more prominent ones
just before ad1curning for the holidays were to
the effect that they were willing to join with
Mr.. Bayard in support Of a measure to repeal
the legal-tender power of the greenback at some
future date. to be specified in the law for
the repeal These southern Senators are willing
and anxious to form an alliance, politically or
financially, or both, with the East but they:will
not consent to a sudden destruction of the legal
tenders. Even the hard-money Senators from
the South object to this Senator Butler. who
has heretofore voted uniformly with Mr. Bay
ard, said 1t would be "a great injustice to the
debtor class to strike down, suddenly, the green
backs; that such an act would tend to divide the
democracy in the South" He was willing to join
with Mr.. Bayard, or anybody else In the pas
sage OF law to repeal the legaLtender feature
of the greenback sin 1885, 1884, or even 1882, but
time must be given for the people to prepare for
it, In the end, very probably, Mr.. Bayard and
those who support his position will have to
accept some compromise Of that kind. 1t seemed
to be the opinion Of the best Informed demo-
cratic Senators that an agreement would be
reached, early in January, upon the basis men
toned by Senator Butler. Mr.. Bayard will not
be likely to yield his resolution, however, with
out trial; then, when 1t shall have been de-
monstrated that It cannot be adopted, it Is
believed the compromise will be Effected. Such
compromise Will, in all probability, command
votes enough TO put it through the Senate but
its fate in the House will be doubtful to say the
least.

Gov. Garcelon, of Maine, no doubt deserves
good deal OF the sharp censure just now showered
upon him, but 1t should be said In his behalf that
some OF the hard words applied to him do not fit.
He is thoroughly honest man and whatever
mistakes he has made are due to ob5tinancy OF
temper rather than to any moral obliQuity In
face and figure he much resembles Andrew
jackson, and he is as positive and self-willed as
ever ''Old Hickory" was. His home at Lewis
ton abounds with anecdotes Of his peculiarities
In this way, but nobody there Of any political
party would ever dream of charging him with
wilful dishonesty. The only danger is that his
Jacksonian temper may betray him In the
present emergency into some hot-headed act
that will lead TO blOodshed. Is Is probable that
he has been worked upon to take his present at
titude by Eben F. P1llsbury, of the Augusta
Standard, who wants to be U. S. Senator In
place Of Hamlin, and who Is generally looked
upon as the Mephistopheles Of the fusion plot
ting In Maine.

Dr.. Hammond says. Images were
formed, hallucinations entertained,
and she was accordingly in these re-
spects in a condition similar to that Of
a dreaming person; for the images and
Authorizations were either directly con-
Dected with thoughts she previously
had, or were mediately suggested to
her through her sense of hearing. Some
mental faculties were exercised, while
others were quiescent. There was no
correct judgement and no violition.
Imagination, memory, the emotions,
and the ability 20 be impressed By sag
gestions were present in a high degree,
DR.. Hammond concludes from a care
full study of this case and others SINH
lar that ''the phenomena of hypnotism
are not those of pure somnambulism,
but that three other conditions are
present in greater or less degree.
These are hysteria, catalepsy, and
ecstasy. To brief consideration of
some of the more important features
of these abnormal states of the nervous
system the attention of the reader is
invited, with the expectation that they
will be found to account for many
of the phenomena of spiritualism.

Leavenworth and Vicinity.

Quite comical scene took place on
Sunday June 22nd. It was nothing
less than doctor hunt. The doctor,
who had but lately moved from New
Ulm, and was very likely trying to build
up a reputation, had engaged to cure
one of his patients within certain
time, and failed. The friends of the
invalid would have satisfaction, and as
the doctor would not give them, any,
they determined to help themselves.
Therefore the chase, which was quite
an entertainment to the spectators; it
was really equal to anything exhibited
in Forepaugh's celebrated circus. The
doctor was not captured. He being
small and spare, and the wind blowing
4 gale at the time, was soon out of
sight;and though his pursuers searched
every stable and pig-pen, it was all of
no avail.
The people of Leavenworth are not
of the sort to allow their patriotism to
flag. They have resolved that the
Fourth shall be celebrated in becom-
ing manner. A meeting has been held
and it has been decided to hold a pic.
mic. A committee has been appointed
to take charge of the matter, and moth
ing will be left undone to render the
occasion as entertaining and agreeable
as possible. Those who decide to pass
the Fourth with us, will not repent
it, and will besides have the gratifica-
ton of assisting a good cause, as the
proceeds of the picnic are to be devot.
