OARRYI~G INDIANA IN 1880.

The msin point OF value brought out by Dor
sey's turning States evidence agaiost his own
maraeeDent of the Republican camp ign OF 1889
Is the TACT that Indiana was carried BY money. of
this there has been little doubt before. 1t was so
notorious that Vice President Arthur had % char
acierze II by dsshes at the Dorsey BANG uet. There
has never been Dyattempt to deny II, and the
only snswer made hEs been OF the you're
Dorsey charges that 100000 was taken to Indi-
enspolis snd dealt out 10 safe men all over the
Sta to- sDd used to swing the small per cent OF
voters necessary to give the State 10 the Repub-
HeSDs That could be easily done: $4,000 read
lily means 1000 votes and II did not take half
decided the result in the country, and thus IL is
easy TO carry the Presidential election by the out
grave matter visiing as it does the tenure of the
National Government by the party in power. If
Dorsey allegations ia this respect should be con-
frmed by an inyesiig ltion, which will undouoted-
ly be held when Congress meets. ii viii be
serious and damaging load for the Republicans in
1871 such an investigation Is inevitable. Among
the the witnesses who Will be called are Dorsey
himself, Georgs Gorham. New and Fllley, stephen
money out on tickets from the drawers of q large
bureau; Marshal Dunn, OF Delaware. and several
other writer's whose names have been given by
parties who were in the business.-Springtie.d Re-
publican.
1t will be observed that Republican organ
CT the better sort favors the investigation of
Republican methods employed in 1850 to
carry Indiana, and intimates that such an in
vestiE alton viii be had. The Springfield Re-
publican expresses the opinion, if it is shown
that Dorsey has stated the truth in regard 10
such matters, that the load will prove to be a
serious and damaging burden to the Republi-
can party. If the investigation takes place,
it will disclose amount of infamy paral-
leled only by the deep damnation of the
frauds and perjuries which reversed the will
of the American people in 1876. and seated
Hayes. If the investigation is started, the
probabilities are that Hon. w. Z. Fishback
and Hon. Stanton ]. Peelle will be called upon
to testify. Mr.. Fishback asserts that high
officials in the Republican party "con-
nived at such crimes as briblng election
officials to stuff ballot-boxes and falsify cleo
ton returns" The question arises how much
money was expended for such methods to
carry Indiana for Porter and Garfield? Such
questions will not be answered by saying
''you're another, ana the investigation will
be serious and damaging load for the Re-
publicans in 1881" It will be observed that
bribing election officials 10 commit Peniten-
tiary crimes is not buying Democratic votes,
and that paying money for importing voters
is something quite different from hiring
brass bands. The right thing to do is to in

ARTHuR as A MONARCH.

The New York Sun is entitled to much
credit for calling the attention of the coun-
try to the way President Arthur is exercising
monaIchical prerogatives. The sun says:
The fact that the Government steamer
Dispatch has been employed OF late as
pleasure yacht by the ladies OF President
Arthur's family, has not been much COM
mented upon by the press, but we think
il has none lie less been considered with
serious attention by the people. Such use is
improper and uDjustifable. The vessel was
paid for ont of the public Treasury, and is
maintained for the public service alone. If
she is not required for the necessities OF the
Navy, she ought st once to be laid up, 50 that
the expense of running her may be saved.
There is no law which allows the President
to employ her as his own, and there is no
custom which can justify such an act But
when, in the absence Of the President, the
ladies of his family take possession 1 Gov
eminent ship, with its officers and crew and
running expenses Rll paid out OF the Treas
ury, and when they convertit into pleasure
yacht for their convenience and amusement,
they take for themselves that which is not
theirs, that which they ought most scrupu-
lousy to avoid taking, and that which
the President ought if necessary, to
command them not TO take. The
facts, as stated by the Sun, clearly
outline the views of the Republican party
as to what constitutes the peculiar privileges
of a Republican President Republicans are
anxious to confer upon. the President and his
family royal rights and Arthur is not slow
10 accept anything and everything that comes
in his way at all calculated to lift him into
kingly prominence. The idea of the Repub-
lican party is to centralize power in the Pres
ident, and when the ladies of the White
House take possession OF Government ship
for their pleasure at the expense Of the peo-
pie, not Republican organ or boss protests.
No European Monarch could do more in the
same direction. The monarchical idea is
that that the Monarch is the Government,
and can call a ship or an army to his service
at will. The same thing is being brought
about in this country, Ll-jer Republican
rule. The people are dissatisfied, and have
decided that the Republican party must

the back of her head; the forehead is left bare,
with the exception OF couple OF locks, one on
each side. When she is OF a manageable age she
combs her hair forward. and makes it up into the
shape Of fan or butterfly. and at the same time
decoretes it with silver cord and balls OF varied
colors. This means every thing and is fully under

WALL STREET.

What is We'll street?" inquiries a con-
temporary and adds "At the mention OF
Wall street many people suddenly stand
still, look bewildered, draw long breaths,
sigh, and do many other strange things, as if
they could hear the rumbling OF calamity's
chariots in the distance" Noticing such
things it is quite natural that people should
ask, what is Wall street? where is Wall
street? and what is there in or about Wall
street which, when it is mentioned, creates
such a hubbub? We might continue the
inquiries and ask, where is the man OF
genius to faithfully describe Wall street
whose knowledge OF facts, whose gifts OF
Imagination could do justice to Wall street?
Wall street is in The city OF New York. It
reaches far below the curb stones of Gotham.
Ii is paved hellwards and heavenWards.
People go down in Wall street, and they
90 up in Wall street. They sink
like piummets or rise like kites They die
like dogs or live like Princes. In Wall street
there is cash and curse. In Wall street there
are priests forever worshipDlpg at the shrine
of mammon, and pirates forever hunting the
priests. Wall street has its dens and divans.
1t is vast hunting park filled with traps and
trappers. Jay Goulds patent rat trap is in
Wall street. In Wall street visitors go down-
down to plutonlan darkness. They squeal
as they go, but squealing does notarTest their
descent. In Wall street some people go up
climb, ascend-until they stand robed in
purple and fine linen on the SUBMITS of the
delectable mountains; and then in the pride
OF conquest look down and and remark,
eHpassaHt, that they do not care id for
the people. There is money IN Wall street,
but no mercy; gold. bat no goodness; cur
rsncy, but no Christ. Wall street is a gam.
bling hell, and the smoke of the torrents of
those who fail to win never clears away, but
rises night and day forever. Wall street is an
arena where bulls and bears worry each other
with horn and hoof, paw and claw. Wall
street is reservoir when spectators
water their stock. Wall street
is troubled sea whose contending tides are
forever flowing. where adverse winds are for
ever blowing, where small craft are forever
going down to rise no more; where no life
boat is ever seen, and where no lighthouse
ever throws its rays without the gloom, 1t is
a sea where wrecks abound and where wreck
ers ply their vocation with consummate
skill. Wall street is q money center into
which streams OF gold and silver are forever
pouring their wealth. Wall street is the
place where the money power sits enthroned,
grim and cold and relentless as death.
