INDIANA SPECIALS.
Poisoned From Eating Canned BIackher.
ries-Under Arrest-Dead.

Special to the Sentinel:
bRowSSTowS, Ind, Jan. 9.-Three members n
Matt Henderson's family. living near Nedora
this County, were suddenly stricken down with
some mysterious disease yesterday afternoon
Medical aid was at once summoned, and tn,
DOCTOR upon his arrival, pronounced IL a case q
poison An emetic was administered. which so.,r
produced vomiting. Among the matter thrown
from the stomach was large amount of black.
berries. twas ascertained that the three per
sons ate blackberry pie for dinner. which
he'Doctor said was poisoned from some cause
perhaps from the tin cans in which they were put
up They were reported much better last eve
ming, and viii likely recover. When the Doctor
first arrived he thought the chances decidedly
against them.
young man of this place, and highly con
nected. was arrested by the Sheriff a day or two
ago upon an indictment found against him by
the last Grand Jury for selling his vote to another
man here for $. He gave bond for his appear
ance at the February term OF the Circuit Court.
Rev. John Bell, one OF the pioneers of Grassy
Fork Township, this County died on Thursday
at his residence, near Mount Pleasant, OF typhoid
pneumonia. He was faithful minister In the
Baptist Church for near forty years, and was not
far from seventy years OF age at the time of his
death. lie was universally beloved by all who

the Land Iengue policy Irishmen are aow
seeking 10 obtain a recognition Of tl.eir
rights. Their position il now 50 d. .dant, and
at the same time SO wise and so lust, that
the civilized world is in synl4atAy With IT,
and is wishing the Oppressed victory over
their oppressors. Amcri,.a Is taking pro-
found interest in the struggle The great
American heart beats responsive to Ireland's
demands, not because Americans hate
England--thOugh they have no reason
for admiriIg her practices in peace or in
war-but because Ireland is in the right. 1t
is a struggle on Irish soil for the privilege OF
living without having grim, gaunt and
CHASTITY famine forever the guest of the how
els of the poor and. by the Throne OF Eter-
nal Justice, Irislsmen should swear TO fight
1t out on that line as long as the shamrock
blooms, or a thorn bush can be found out of
which to manufacture shillalah England,
in the past, has too often found means to
rob ireland Of some of her most valiant
sons, and Ireland has toe often been called
upon to mourn Irishmens treason to Ire
lands holy cause To some extent the
SAME is true now. England has wealth and
hoaors to bestow, and she has in the past
been able to hush the voice of Irish orators
and poets whose mission it was to plead the
cause of their native land, and to further
still the rising tempest of Ireland's indigna-
ton. England has sent Irishmen
abroad with royal commissions TO
conduct her diplomacy and lead her armies.
An Irish poet has written OF his country's
eOuntrymen:
-Cnprized are her sons till they learn 10 betray.
Undistinguished they live II they shame not
And the torch that would light them to dignity's
way,
Must be caught from the pile where their
country expires
But the present generation of Irishmen
are disposed to force concessions from En-
gland, and they are making headway. En-
gland sends forth troops to ireland, but
there is no use for them. England gets up
trials for such men as Parnell. but intelIi-
gent men regard them a. a farce. Ireland is
commanding the sympathy of the world,
and bringing such pressure to bear upon
the English Ministry as will certainly help
the Irish cause In this regard America is
doing her whole duty, and thereby raising
the standard of the dignity and power of
American citizenship.

GOVERNOR eRAY's MESSAGE.

The message of Governor Isaac 7. Gray
which we lay before fhe readers of the Sen
tinel to-day, is a State paper which the peo-
pie will find eminently worthy of their
careful perusal and profound consideration,
for, though addressed to the General Assem-
bly,, its discussion of State affairs is so thor
Ough and exhaustive that the general read
er who desires authentic information with
regard to the political situation can not af-
ford to lay it aside with a cursory examina-
ton, and ii is all the more important that
it should be carefully examined from the
fact that the State governmental affairs
have passed into the hands of the Repub-
document will be the more readily
comprehended from tile consideration that
it touches upon every subject of vital in
portance TO the people. Dismissing the
opening paragraph and the manly tribute to
Governor Williams, Governor Gray alludes
as briefly as possible to the acts of 1879, the
constitutional amendments the benev olen
institutions of the State, the reports of State
officials, the new State House. educational
interests the prisons, the State Board of
Charities, public health, revision OF the laws,
election of Presidential Electors, United
States Senator's, purity of elections, legis-
lation and intemperance. Every subject is
admirably treated, and conclusions evince
thorough study, conscientious regard for
the public welfare, entire familiarity with
every question and statesman-like grasp of
every interest As State paper, Governor
Gray's first, and for time his last, message,
will take rank with any similar document
that has invited the attention of the Legis-
lature and the people, and the author of the
message can retire to private life with the
proud consciousness that his official duties
have been faithfully and acceptably per-
formed

THE number of States having over a mil
lion of inhabitants. as shown by the late
census, has risen from fifteen in 1870, tc
nineteen in 1880. while there is no change
in the relative position of the States of New
York, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Illinois, Mis-
souri, Indiana, Massachusetts and Ken
lucky, which in the order stated, are ahead
of other States. Iowa has risen from the
eleventh place to ninth, Michigan from thir
etenth to tenth, Texas from nineteenth tC
eleventh, Tennessee has fallen from ninth
to twelfth, Georgia has dropped from twelfth
TO thirteenth, Virginia frors tenth to four
teenth, North Carolina from fourteenth tC
fifteenth, Wisconsin from fifteenth to six
teenth. The four States that have passed
the million line in the ten years, are Texas
Alabama, Mississippi and New Jersey.

TtsE Southern States do not object to any
movement on the part OF Congress to appro-
pirate money for educating the ignorant,
and any proposition the North rnay make
upon the subject the South will be quite
likely to favor. The last report of the Com
missioner of Education gives some statistics
showing the lack Of education in the South
ern States 4 great many thousands of col
ored people can neither read nor write.
They are reported as profoundly ignorant,
but we have never heard that any Repub-
lican regarded their ignorance as reason
why they should not vote-provided they
voted the Republican ticket To show the
number of the school population OF sixteen
Southern States, the number enrolled, etc,
the following table will be of interest to
those who desire information upon the sub.
ject. The figures are based on the reports
of State authorities for the year 1878:

THE Philadelphia Times, in contemplat-
lug the grandeur Of the American Navy, is
moved to say that "a thrill of patriotic pride
must set a-quiyering the breast of every
loyal American whenever a thought of his
country's Navy chances to drift within the
horizon of his mind-there is something so
grandly impassive about it, so majestic, so
unutterably calm" And this condition of
things is possibly the reason why the Gin
cinnati Commercial wants Bruce, of Missis-
sippi, to take charge of the Navy Depart
ment.. Bruce would hardly do, as the Times
puts it, for Substantial Navy-a feet OF
real ships, carrying real guns, but in the
present dreary, abstract spirituality" of the
Navy, Bruce might do.
