Citizens generally are doing everything that suggests itself to make tbe observance of the Vice-President's fuaeial appropriate and fitting. On ac count of the strain upon the nerves of Mis. Hendricks, visitors were excluded from!tbe bouse last evening, but this this morning the parlors were again filled Jsympathising friends. Mrs. Hendricks da almost prostrated from griif and ex haustion, and her physicians have given orders that she shall see nobody unless on business of the greatest moment It. H. Parks of Chicago, accompanied by II Muller of Indianapolis, and P. OesHue’r. of Cincinnati, took a plaster cast of Mr Hendricks's face to-day. It was not altogether satisfactory, however,, nn.l Mrs Hendricks s suggestion Mr. Parks Will make another cast to-morrow morning from which he will model a bust The burial casket which will be here ill the morning, is like that in which Gnint was bnned, with the exception that it is covered with black broadcloth and is made entirely of cedar sLom bcinti bo incLdlic lining.

All rooms at the principal hotels are already engaged by distinguished persons from abroad. At a meeting of various political organizations to-day uppropnnto tributes ot respect were adopted and committees no- pointed to arrange for participation in the funeral ceremonies. The Hcndncks Club, composed of 1,000 young Democrats, ap pointed a committee to make preliminary arrangements for starting a subscription to raise means to erect a monument to Mr. Hedfcicks in tbe city, and they arc encour aged in this undertaking by assoxincesof -jAw.fintie all sidt s. Mis. generous donati Hendricks has received Reveral hundred messages of condolence. Among those that -came to-day Were tributes of respect and as surance of sympathy from Governor Patti- son, of Pennsylvania, Associate Justice Harlan, Mayor Francis, of St. Louis 'General James A. Lukin, of Louis ville,and fifty or more political organizations in all parts of the country*. The National Cattle and Horse Breeders' Association, of St. Louis, at whose exhibition at Chicago last week Mr. Hendricks attended, also sent a message of sympathy. Tbo pal-lbearers at the funeral Were selected by the commit tee this morning with Mrs. Hendricks’s ap proval. They aro as follows: Gov. Isaac « Gray, ox Gov. Albert 0. l'orfir, Hon. A. M.

At Mr. Hendricks's residence this afternoon mid evening a cnriuiu crowd continued about the entrance*, and the parlors were filled with callers. For the first time nine* Mr. llendricka's death, Mm.

In connection with the announced inten- tion of the President to attend Mr. Hen dricks's funeral obsequies Tuesday next, the Journal will say: the citizen* of Indlanapclia and the State of Indiana would be bo.h proud aud pleated to meet the Prealdent of the Uuited Stater, for whom a plurality of them ca^t their rotea a year ago, with ■Uch honorand reaped an tbe propriety of the nad erent of tae funeral of the late Vice-President would permit, and while the friends and neighbors of lhomas A. lleudricks fully appreciate the honor that would be done to bis memory by the presence or tbo chief iust»iHt:ato here Tuesday next, the Journal feels constrained to say that it belieres Mr. Cleveland should not leave the White Houso at this Juncture to make tbe Journey. The perils incident to the necessarily rapid movements of a special rail way train should not be hazarded by the President. ® and • ctiv « services are now iwculiariy valuable to the peoplo. There are too many risks attending the trip as it will necessarily have to be made. Aa was remarked when the honored Vice- president was so suddenly taken away, it is the unexpected that happens, and against the unex- jKJctcd and we truat and believe the improbable, it •■**» Cleveland s imperative duty to take all proper precautions. The country has gone through suc cessfully mauy perils during the last quarter of a century, but the Hue has on iuo;e than one occasion been drawn to lta highest tension. There should not be a possibility of another strain if hu man prudence can prevent it. Every honorable cit- r® n . ft® country, regardless of party faith, prays for the life and health of the President, who atauds alone now as the embodlmeat of constitutional powerand authority, aud from the moment Le rhould leave tbe capital aud reached it again in safety, the country would bo in patriotic unrest aud auxiety. The Journal fcela free to make tills suggestion as a Republican newspaper and as ouo published at the home of the late Vice-Presi dent, and as one against which the charge cauuot be made that it would do or say anything to inter- fere with the largest possible measure of honor to the memory of the distinguished dead. Hut Mr. Cleveland is not his own. Ilo is not his party's. He cannot follow merely the dictates of bis per sonal or political friendship. He is the nation's head, the only life between the government and an interregnum. In view .of this, we would not have him take the riaka incidental to the rapid trauiit that would mark his journey from the national capital to Indianapolis. Let all the Secretaries come who can be spared from their official duties, hut the President should not lesve Washington. Washington, November 27.—The Even- Star, iu it* new* column*, says several prom inent Democrat* have advised tbe Presi dent against his oroposed visit to Indianap olis to attend the funeral of Mr. Hendricks, and in its editorial column publishes the following: The intention expressed by the President to go to ladiauapolis for the purpose of attending the fu neral of Vice-President llendricks, next Tuesday, is '*• the highest degree creditable to him as a man citizen, but it is nevertheless greatly he regretted that he is not able to see that his highest duty to the republic entirely absolves him from any aup- posed personal or official obligation to be present rests n. xr the window, curtain ilcad appea Ha* c onspicuou sly.

Within the last twenty-four hours Uon. William K. English aud other personal friends of Mr. lleu dricks have been in receipt of telegrams from prominent men at Washington and elsewhere expressing the opinion that it would be uuwiae and injudicious for Mr. Cleveland to leave Washington under the present circumstances, even to attend the funeral of the Vice-President, and suggesting that it would be graceful for Mrs. lleu dricks and her friends to say to him in a dispatch that while they would be gratified at bis attendance, bis failure to come in the present condition of af fairs would not be considered at all disrespectful. Trying to l>!»sumlo the President. on that occasion. Tbe present juncture in public affairs Is such as to make the seat of government the true place for the President for some time. It is to be hoped that such counsels may yet prevail aa will persuade him to forrgo his purpose and place himself as little as possible in the way of ad verse fortune at this inclement sexton, of special risk to health and liability to accident in travel by land or water. The country will need no outward show to prove tbe depth and sincerity of the Presi dent's pric fat the loss which is equally felt by it with himself. tin* following: .

Justices Matthews and Match ford wifi repre sent the court at the funeral of the late Vice-Presi dent. A considerable number of Ben atom. Repre sentatives and public officials, as well aa many dia- tlnguishcd citizens of Washington, have called on the President to urge him to reconsider his deter mination to attend the funeral of tlie Vice-President. Their argument haa been, not that there would bo more than ordinary danger Involved in the pro posed journey, but the emergency is such that ft is - Lis duty to the country to avoid every possible risk of accident to bis life and health until Congreas meets and the Presidential succession is provided for. Largo numbers of tele grams to the same effect have been pouring in uirim the President to-day from leading men in all sections of the country. Including one from Hou. Samuel J. Tilden aud a number from distinguished friends of the late Vice-President at Iudlanapolis. At a late hour this afternoon the fol lowing was received from Mr. Hord, his late law partner: "iNDUNarous, November 28,1883.—To tbe Presi dent: Mrs. Jleudricks requests me to thank for your messagd of sympathy, and Ml<w Cleveland for her kind beautiful letter. She requests me to say that lof--—* Will also -our presence at tbe funeral or her husband would very* grateful to her feelings, but that she fully apiircuiatcs the weighty pubUc reasons that exist at this time against your coming West, and begs that you will be governed entirely by your sense of duty. [Signed] Oscaa H. Hood." It is understood that the President has not yet concluded to abandon the trip, although be said t»» caller to-day that the matter wav being presented > him in snch a way aud from such sources e« might induce him, as a question of duty, to forego a Journey. Wahhinotox, November 28.—While it I* not posi tively settled, it is pretty well understood that Sec retaries Dayanl, Whitney and Endicott and Post master-General Vilas will attend the funeral of Vice- President Hendricks. Tbe Attorney-General ia ex- p© tin bu Preparations at Washington. Washington, November 27.—The regu lar meeting of the cabinet was held tonluy. All tbe member* were present. Tbo Pre*- ident'* message bo far as completed, was read and nnanimon9ly approved. It is said to be an unusnally strong paper, contain ing many new and valuable HUggestionn. Che question of attending the funeral of Mr. llendricks wo* considered, and two or three member* of the cabinet said it would be almost impossible to leave thu city ju3t it this time without neglecting matters which it is important should bo set tled before the meeting of Con gross. The President expressed u determination to at tend the funeral. His message was almost ready and could be completed on his return. The Postmaster-General and Secretaries of War and the Navy said their report* were all in shape, and they thought they would be able to accompany the President Tbe Secretary of State also thought he coaid ar range to go with tho party. The other members thought tbe affairs of their de- i>artments would prevent their leaving the city. Finally it was decided to leave th* matter entirely to the discretion of each member, with on understanding that all who could would go. The party wiUproba- bly leave here Monday morning. The de tails of tho trip have been placed in the hand* of Colonel Lamont, ana are not yet complete. The chairman of tbe Senate committee has added Senator Heck to the committee to attend Mr. Hendricks’s funeral Mr. Can ady, sergeant at-arms of the Senate, and Mr. Leedom, of the House, have made ar rangements for the committee to go to In dianapolis via the Pennsylvania railway, leaving Washington at 9:30 ft. ro. f Monday :ind arriving in Indianapolis at 8 a. m., Tuesday.

Tbo mode of manufacturing whisky in I „ w .„ the days when it was bent down the Missis- anil with the metropolitan | sippi river on flat bodia and sold at 15 to 20 cent* per gallon differed jw widely as possi- blo from that of tbo present, says tho Louis- | jt i-) ville Commercial. 1 lie location of springs v_y I J I > in that day decided that of tlie distillery, for | the simple reason that they had no machine ry or pumps, nnd the water flowed through , troughs dug out of oak saplings into the ? r - , . flake atand or condenser. Of nreessity the I eleganee and cl spring wns sufBcientlv derated to flow in tue top of tbe fluke stuud. Tbe whisky of that day con truly bo add to bare been hand made, iw everything wn* done by manual labor. The grain was ground in the neiofi- borbood horse mill and carried on hcrae back to the distillery. The mashing was done in smdl tubs, iih now, except that tbo spent beer or slop was carried in bnckets from the still to the tabs. Tho meal wet thon pat in nnd stirred with a stick nntil thoroughly cooked into mush, and lot stand about twenty-four hours to cool. Then cold water was pat in and thoroughly stirred. Yeast was then taken from tubs in a state of fermentation nnd put into the new tabs, and allowed to stand forty-eight or seventy- two hours, as the weather might bo cold or warm—tho colder, the longer the time of fermentation. After the fermentation was complete tbo mash became beer, which was dipped in bnckets nnd run through throngbs into jug- shaped copper stills, which were placed on a rock ana the fmnoccs so bailt that tho fire, mndo of wood.wontcntirely around tho still some distance above tho bottom, the smoke coming oat into tho distillery. Hut tho .listillor, to lnnko doubly sure that bis sHU might not burn by tho settling of the inenl, which wonld prevent tho beer com ing in contact with tho heated still, would leave oil what was called the cap and stir with a pole until the beer was about to boil, when lio would replace the cap nnd taste it around with rye meal. This boil- ng process is called distilling. Since alcohol lic-comcs a vapor at n lower temperature tlinn water boils, tlio vapor that arises is utmost entirely alcohol, which I’ocs through copper pipes, or what is called ho worm, simply because it is coiled around the inside of a large tub or flake stand, which is constantly supplied with cold wa ter introduced in the bottom of tho tloko stand, tlio heated water overflowing at the top. This cold water condenses the vapor in the worm, which come ont what was culled singlings. This was redistilled in the samo way to get n higher proof vOds- ky. In th&t day there was no snch thing as a thermometer; the distiller’s arm was the substitute in testing the heat of his tubs, and the proof vial was used instead before 0 f hydrometer, and the proof of whisky a——— .lonidoil l.«* Alan MM..* .1 l.dill In BUYER, W.

It was mre to find one that matte a barrel per day, andtwo gallons per bnshel was considered a large yield, ana often the cellar of n gen tleman's house was his warehouse. Ready customers were on hand with their jag., waiting tho run. The taste ot that day bad not been cultivated to a just appreciation of 15-year-old Hourbon, but thought a lit tle catnip nnd tansy gave it a fine flavor.

LYONS & CLINE, AS TO HIGH LICT.NSU. What k'an be Accomplished Without Strict Prohibitory Laws. Sscremento Rocord-Caloa. Whoever has closely observed the tenden cy of public opinion must have noted its rapid drift toward tbe application of the high lionise system in municipalities. The pocket nerve ot tho tax-payers has been toadied, and has brought them to a rtulizn- tiontbattho liqnrtrafficenn jnatlybe inode to bear more of the costa of government than it now docs, without launching any temper ance thunderbolts. Tho two ends high li- censo accomplishes are to reduce general taxation liy putting heavier hardens upon tbo liquor luxury, and to lessen tho num ber ot luw grogg. rics thnt curse all commu nities of uuy considerable size. In this lat ter scoomplishmcnt it so happens that the bettor class ot liqjior dealers see good re sults for themselves, and so tliey ure very generally falling In with the idee of high lf- nense. It is srgned thnt the system cats short the right of the poor man to make a living by soiling liquor. Admitting this to be true—though it cannot be shown that it demands any greater capital to be invested in the bnsineM—it may be replied that if that was a primo object in advocating th • system it wonld be defensible, on the ground that nothing better ran be dono for the poor man than to make it extremely dif ficult (or him to engage in the bo.ine*a ut all. In ninety cases nut of a hundred the pKiraeawho willadvance the objection re ferred to will be found to l>e keeping place* of such low degree that they are immediate agencies for their degradation and final ruin, and are looked upon by communities gen erally ns nnisanect, of tho worst order, high licenso experiments in Colusa m nml Los Angeles counties will l<o watch with great interest by both the friends and the opponents of the system. A year ago we presented for severed weeks tho current arguments of the tteeuse aide of the ques tion, with many citations of trial of the sys tem in various porta of the Union. Since then observation of tbe experiments haa strengthened tbe affirmative of the inane.
