The lingo Policy.
Gath, in Cincinnati Enquirer.

VAIL, III NlHVluHdtl Enquirer
Much is said about the lingo policy. We had
England few years ago afraid to attack any
thing. The general idea got abroad that she
would not Fl ght. The political party which ad-
vanced that policy suddenly found that to give
up the foreign policy of England was to give
up England herself. First, the victorious Rus
slams were checked by Disraei and next British
enterprise was developed throughout Africa
and at tins moment England has sense of
strength and repose she never would have en-
ioyed by acquiescence and dismay. The news

Raising Campaign Funds.
Washington Special to Boston journal.

There seems to be no doubt in Republican
quarters of the ability to raise sufficient cam
paign fund. 1t is reported that a number of
wealthy men have already offered liberal contri-
buttons The civilservice law is regarded by
many as preventing the slightest contributions
for political purposes even the necessary col
lections to defray the expenses of serenade. 1t
had been contemplated that the expenses of a
serenade by the Grand Army of the Republic to
General Logan should be paid by subscriptions
of government clerks, but the suggestion having
been made that that might be violation of the
civil-service law, the money will be obtained
elsewhere. At the meeting of the Pennsylvania
Republican Association, Edward Mcpherson.

to come to the headquarters, but distinctly said:

J. B., in Cincinnati Commercial.
Outside of Indiana, McDonalds strength as q
presidential candidate has been greatly overesti-
mated. In advance, it may be admitted that he
is politically and personally honest and consist
ent and that he is fairly able man But that
is all that can be said of him. He has never
shown any remarkable strength before the people
of his own State. No man in the history of In
diana has had such large majority against him
as he had when he ran for Governor in 1864
Before then, in 1S47, when the Democrats had
control of everything, he ran behind his ticket
as candidate for Secretary of State. Previous
to that he represented Democratic district in
Congress, but he was not able to secure renom-
nation, he being beaten by notorious drunk
ard who attended the ratification ball in his
night-shirt McDonald's election as United
States senator cannot be taken into account as
test of his popular strength.
The original boomers of Mcdonald for the
presidency are not so hopeful as they were at
first Mcdonald is a free trader, and it was pro-
posed that he should make his candidacy on
tariff reform" At that time it was thought
that Indiana strongly leaned toward tariff for
revenue only. But later developments prove
that the sentiment of the State, independent of
party lines, is getting more and more in favor of
protection. Several months ago eight thousand
circulars were sent out to representative men in
the State without reference to politics. to township
trustees, county road supervisors, &c, the OBJ
ject being to ascertain the drift to the tariff
Some 1900 answers were received and of these
400 were In favor of protection, 800 calling for
high" protection. The remainder were for
tariff for revenue only" AS 80 per cent
of the answers came from rural districts, they
completely disproved the assertion of the free
traders that the farmers were opposed to pro-
lection.
Mcdonald has made no great record as a
stumper or campaigner 1t will be remembered
that he was failure in Ohio last fall.
Under all the circumstances it is not likely that
Mcdonald will head the Democratic national
ticket

THE COMING PLENARY COUNCIL.
The Assembly Said to Have Been Precipi-

st. Louis Post-D Dispatch
prominent Catholic priest said to-day to a
reporter: II heard directly from Rome that the
direct cause of the conference of American arch
bishops at Rome last fall and the Baltimore
council which is to follow it, was the case of the
Rev. j. P. Gleason, of st. Louis, who was sus-
pended on the charge of being the father of
child by his housekeeper OF course it was only
a question of time when the council must be
called, but the Gleason suspension and appeal
precipitated the matter. You see, Cardinal
Simeoni, as the head of the propaganda, had
found himself simply deluged with American
cases. When the Gleason case came up it seemed
to him thst it presented all the features to
which the attention of the Pope should
be Immediately called The result, as you
know, was the conference, aud the matter de
bated most earnestly was form Of appeal from
the findings of the JUDGES causarupl, and the de
cisons of the archbishop, which would be fair 70

with work which properly belongs to the church
here,
you will see that at the Baltimore council
some sort of an ecclesiastical court of appeal will
be instituted to which all those sort of cases will
be referred, and another point that will be taken
up is sacerdetal discipline, also following this
case. You will see strict laws passed governing

twenty-six men to leave Muncie and go overland
to the gold fields of California. Most of the

determined when he did return to his wife and
two children to come back with fortune. By
the last of the party who returned to Muncie he
sent back $500, and then his wife ceased to
hear from him. After years of waiting she con-
cluded he was dead, and sold his farm and set
tied his estate. His father died wealthy, and his
estate was also settled upon the supposition that
Thompson Walling was dead, his children
falling heir to his share of the
property. Believing him dead, but forti-
flying herself with divorce, Mrs. Walling
married Horatio Wilcoxon. On Aug. a. 1865,
