The Weekly State journal.

The Weekly Edition of the Journal is
especially prepared for the demands of the
people of Indiana outside of the cities and
towns reached by the Daily. 1t is not a re-
print of the Daily, but is an entirely separate
and distinct edition, under the care of an in
dependent and experienced editor. 1t con-
tains the best literary and miscellaneous
features of the Saturday Journal but it has
exclusively prepared for its columns a COM
plete compendium of all the news of the
week, both foreign and domestic, and par
ticalarly of the State of Indiana, and of the
territory which it naturally commands. Its
market reports are carefully compiled, and its
agricultural and household departments re-
ceive particular and competent attention. The
WEEKLY STATE JOURNAL will contain full
dgests of the proceedings of the legislature
and of Congress, with editorial reviews of
the most important topics of public interest.
In all its features the WEEKLY STATE JOURNAL.
is as good as any weekly newspaper printed
in the country. and, OF course, it is much
better for every Indianian because of its
local news and character Indanians are not
interested in the local news of Ohio, or of
Illinois, or OF Kentucky, or of any other
State; but they are interested in the affairs
of Indiana, and these the Weekly Journal
will give them, and at the same time be as
good a general newspaper as the best. The
Weekly Journal is the paper for the Indiana
farmer. Every postmaster is an authroizei
agent, and will receive subscriptions for the
Journal, which can commence at any time.

A message from the Senate announcing its
agreement to the request of the House for a con-
ference on the internal revenue bill having been
received, the Speaker appointed Messrs Kelley,
Mckinley, Haskell, Randall and Carlisle as euu-
ferees on the part OF the House.
The supplemental pOst-rOute bill was passed.
AFTER IA snort parliamentary wransle the House
went into committee OF the whole on the river
and harbor bill
Mr. Page briefly explained its provisions.
Mr. Horr further explained and defended the
bill. MIR. 'Guenther supported the bin, aud Mr.
Richardson, of New York, argued against it.
During the progress of Mr. Richardson's speech
he was interrupted by Mr.. Hutchins, and %
noisy. humorous stormy and wholly uninfel-
ligl5le discussion arose as to the benefits which
New YORK had received from the Federal treas
llry The committee was in perfect uproar,
nearly every member being on his feet and two
or three dozen addressing the chair at the same
time. The declnation of the chairman to recog-
nize any one until the committee came to order
had no effect, as no recognition was
asked for. Several members kept up
a running debate amid cheers applause and
laughter which rendered not only their words
but the directions of the chair inaudlhle MIR
Page at last managed to catch the ear of the
chairman, and the committee, on his motion,
rose. The condition of the House in regard to
the uproar OF the proceedings was no improve
ment on that of the committee, and il took i've
minutes of continuous rapping of the gavel and
some very sharp words from the Speaker pro
tempore (Nlr. Robinson. of Massachusetts, to Sc
cune any degree of quiet,
Mr.. Page then moved to limit debate to two
hours.
MT. Dwight moved TO amend by making ii
three hours. Amid great deal of renewed con.
fusion, vote was taken, and the nO-quorum
point was raised with great deal Of vehemence
by Mr.. Van VOorhis
Mr.. Holman suggested that in order to save
time compromise might be arrived at fixing
the limit at two and half hours

piled Mr. Page.

House.
Finally, Mr.. Dwight's motion was lost and the
compromise of two ana half hours was agreed O.
Mr. Hiscock then suggested that those TWO
ana half hours be consumed tonight, but there
were stern objections, Mr.. Burrows placing his
opposition on, the ground that the iaambers select
committee If they desired to present their
views in an intelligible manner, and Mr.. Cox
stating his unwillingness to address ga pack of
wolves here tonight" After another noisy
wrangle tue House again went into COMMIT tee
OF the whole, but in few minutes rose.
Mr.. Page then moved for recess until o
O'Clock tomorrow, but no quorum voted ana the
House adjourned.

How Watch Cases are Made.

A plate of SOLID GOLD IA 2-10 karats
fine is soldered on each side of plate of
hard nickel composition metal, and the
three are then passed between polished
steel rollers. From this plate the various
parts of the cases-backs, centers, bezels, etc.
are cut and shaped by dies and formers.
The gold is thick enough to admit of all
kinds of chasing, engraving, and engine
turning. The composition metal gives it
needed strength, stiffness and solidity, while
the written guarantee of the manufacturers
uaranting each case to wear twenty years
proves that it contains all the gold that
can possibly be needed. This guarantee
is given from actual results, as many of
these cases have been worn perfectly smooth
by years of use without wearing through
the gold. DUBUQUE, Ia, Dec. IA, 1880.

GENERAL STANDARD OF TIME

AT the meetings of the General
and Southern railway time conven-
lions held in st. Louis and New
York last spring, plan was approx
ed which creates five standards of
time in the United States and in the
Provinces in place of over fifty which
have existed. Each system takes its
time from meridians exactly one hour
of time or 150 of longitude apart.
The eastern system, comprises all
that part of the United States east of
Buffalo. The meridian of this sys-
tenn is the one 75@ west from Green
witch, and it passes almost exactly
through the middle of the system.
This standard has been adopted by
many of the New England railroads,
and Is sixteen minutes slower than
Boston time. 1t is expected that be-
fore the close of the month of Octo-
Der, most of the railroads in the Unit.
ed States east of Buffalo, and in
Canada east of Detroit, will adopt
the seventy-fifth meridian as then
standard, thus making uniform rail
road time for that territory. At ey.

The New York Tribune says In
Gle Ben Butler is near-sighted, but it
is fact that he has a long range
view of the democratic nomination
next year and has his gun aimed at
the mark. The Tribune is probably
right, but the doughty Ben is going
to miss at the short range, and then
where, oh where, will be his chances
at the long range? The Massachu-
sets republicans are making a right
vigorous fight and have been gaining
ground every day since Mr.. Robin
sons nomination and the present
outlook is decidedly favorable for a
republican victory.
