SERBER DEAD.—Adam Serber, who was stabbed by Washington Fagg, one week ago last Saturday evening, died yesterday evening, from the effects of the wounds received. Fagg is in jail; as is also Richardson, who is supposed to be accessory to the act. They will have an examination this morning. ———————

TOWNSHIP CONVENTIONS.—The

couple of physicians

and a druggist authorize us to contradict the statement,recently made that there is much sickness prevailing in this community. It is true there is considerable mild indisposition among the children, but they state that the general health of the people in this favored ciry was never better-at this season of the ear. It affords us more pleasure than it oes the doctors to make the correoion.

MUSQUITOES

are nore numerous thi3

season than they have been known for several years, and their physical powers arc unusually vigorous, considering the fact that they are up so much nights. With the single exceptionof retiring late, their other habits, we believe, are regular. They have a peculiar system of gymnastics that gives a sturdy development to their muscles, and using their voices a good deal in festive chorus has the effect to strengthen their lungs and ward off any tendency to pulmonary complaint.

GRJTL'ES.—Our clever friend Philip Monninger brought us yesterday seveial clusters of grapes from his vineyard, showing remarkably heavy yield. Friend after friend came in so rapidly that we did noU have an opportunity to weigh them, but have seldom seen vines bearing such large clusters end so near together.. We are leased to r'ccord Mr. Monninger's signal sucess in growing thegrape.

DISCUSSION.—A gentleman who

was at Newport, last Satu-dav, states that he attended the joint discussion, at that place, between Messrs Dunn and Yoorbees that a very large crowd was in attendance, and manifested the deepest interest in the debate.' Our informant sa\s that Mr. Dunn acquitted himself most handsomely, fully meeting the highest expectations of his friends^ lie went Tor" Voorhces' record .in a manner that excited "the statesman" to the highest degree.

candidates extended an invitation to twentv or thirty mechanics to meet them at a saloon, on Wednesday evening, and enjoy a social glass. At the appointed time the mechanics and their disinterested friends were at the place of rendezvous. A very agreeable, festive evening was passed and, a', a late hour, the candidates left the scene of their unselfish labors. After they had gone, tlie mechanic decided to "poll the house,'' when it was found that, with only three exceptions, all were Republicans. "Circumstances" render it advisable not "to mention iho hames of any. of the gentlemen referred to, but we can vouch for the truth of this "little story" as we have told it.

pilgrimage of the Democratic

county candidates, last week, was not a flattering success. At the Honey Creek meeting on Saturday, the audience was so slim, that the speakers concluded it was not worth while to spend their breath, and after taking a look at Crandall's jacks and mule?, went on to the next appointment.

The candidatas to be nominated are one Township Trustee, one Assessor, four Justices of the Peace, four Constables and one Supervisor ofeach road district..

we saw an old and well known citizen of this county, who has a nice family and a good farm, who had come to town—got drunk—to [sic] drunk to drive home. He sat in his wagon behind his gentle horses, and halloed to passers by until a friend came along and took him in charge. The sight was a forcible lecture on temperance. ———————

TWO MEN KILLED.—At the Vermillion

County Fair, at Newport, last week, two men were killed. The first was a man living near Georgetown, Illinois, whose name we do not know. He was associating with a woman of bad character, and

giving her some offense, she drew a revolver, inflicting two wounds which soon after proved fatal.

The other death was caused by an altercation between Richard Utter, of Newport and a man named Clayton, of Eugene. Clayton was intoxicated and insulted Utters wife and niece. Utter threatened to call a policeman, whereupon Clayton struck him a heavy blow in the face. Utter drew a pistol and fired. The ball only grazed Clayton's coat, but struck a young man named William Griffin in the hip, ranging up to the lower bowels. He died on Sunday evening. Utter was recognized in the sum of $1,000 to appear at the next term of the Circuit Court, to answer the charge of manslaughter. ———————

TOUCHING INCIDENT.—A

correspon

dent of the Indianapolis Journal relates a touching incident that occurred a{ Evansville last Monday, while Yoorhees was making a speech. When lie came fo'the soldier part of his speech, he desired there were any pensioners in his audience they would rise. One soldier who had lost his eye sight arose. This gave Dan a chance to spread himself, and in an eloquent strain bespoke of this poor soldier, who by the casualties of war had lost his sight. The light of day ww shut out from him, the sun rose and set and he kenned it not Ac. Getting through with the blind man", and happening to drop his eve well to the front, he discovered Phillips, our one-legged Democratic candidate for Kecorder for Monroe county, and said: "And here is Mr. Phillips, your can dilate for Kecorder, wiJi one leg, another illustration of the result of war.

do not

know in what engage.nent Mr. Phillips lost his leg but hare he is maimed for life. Mr. Phillips, where did .you lose your leg?"

chine.'" It is said that it was hard to tell which was the worst wounded just then, the man or Dan.

SUCCESSFUL

MERCHANTS.

When a

man goes into the mercan.ile trade, _it does not require much o!" a prophet to determine how long he will "live." An artisan, mechanic, or farmer, who has been, for a time, looking upon the success of mercantile geniuses with big-eyed wonder, suddenly imagines he can do the same thing that if the business is productive of wealth, with another, there is no reason why it should not be with him —and in lie goes. He has no acquaintance with, nor competence for the business, and a few months, or years, at most, of ill success, leaves him further from fortune than when he started, with perhaps a considerable stock of unsaleable goods upon his hands, which he has not the remotest.possibility of getting rid of—and the"breaks.'' Having no bu-iness capacity/he doe not know what goods to buy, when or wlieie to buy, or how to sell them after they ar^Uought. The successful merchant is not so. ~\\'c know of no better illustration of the latter class than the house of Ilerz A Arnold,'which, from a modest beginning, hat.steadily become one of the ma^t popular resorts for the ladies to be found in the city and 'it is with exceeding gratification that wo are able to record this success, which is due to the skillful management of Mr. Herz, the senior and active pa. ner ^f the house, who, in ail lit ion to a thorough knowledge of the business, favored with all thequalilicalions of a popular tradesman, understandthe value" of inter's ink, and use? it with a liberality and yet with prudence, that has djne much to secure and hold the extensive trade he now enjoys. Success, say we to all such.active, energetic, wide awake merchants. We have many of them, in oilier lines of trade, and it is to such that Tot re Haute

enjoys its prominence abroad.

poor woman who lay dying in this city on Thursday evening. Some kind-heart-ed ladie-", strangers to her, but not strangers to Humanity, stood at her bedside. Her brother, a pcor man himself b«t a Christian gentleman notwithstanding, summoned by telegraph from his home in Pennsylvania, was beside her. Her husband, a vile, drunken ingrate, stood near a table upon which there were medicines, including a bottle of liquor. The hush of death's surroundings was disturbed bv a gurgling sound. Tiie villain husband deliberately poured a glass full of whisky from the bottle, drank it and left the room, to which he had not returned last evening when ilie body was ready for removal to its final rcning-place.

DEMOCRATS A"G HY !.

Therc was an immense audience,—"a perfect jam"—at the Wigwam Monday, to hear the joint discussion between Hons.' -Mwes *F. .Bonn and Daniel*Wv Voorhees) competing candidates for Congressional honors. A vast crowd, quite as many as could get within range of the speakers' voices, sat, or stood, throughout the entire debate of four hours, and many hundreds left the enclosure because they could not get within hearing.

Those who imagined that the people were "not interested political affairs didn't care for party," and all that sort of thing, must have been astonished at such an outpouring of the masses. And we will say here, if this jokit canvass accomplished no other object than a complete waking up of the votfers of the District, it will insure Mr. Dunn's election. A full vote is a Republican victory in all close districts and we have never had a doubt that Voorhees would be defeated if the people could be thor oughly aroused if those who desire his defeat could be brought to the polls to express that desire by their ballots. Hence we were anxious that Mr. Voorhees should be coaxed or forced into a joint-canvass and there is every reason to anticipate the happiest results therefrom for although few conversions to either party may be expected, yet the excitement of the canvass will break in upon the solemn sleep of a class of somnolent Republicans, who wish the good cause well, in their lazy way, but never take the trouble to go to the polls, except under the influence otunusual political conypotion.

Linns A. rurnett, Esq:, and Doctor Ezra Read, Chairmen of the Republican and Democratic Executive Committees of Vigo county, jointly took charge of the general direction of tile meeting, and "run the machine"" with the skill and success thatmight be expected of eminent

experts. Soon after one o'clock, Doctor Read arose and politely invited all present who where hard of hearing to occupy front seats whereupon a sirong detachment of Democrats, never before suspected of deafness, moved forward and took 'tin an eligible position under the shade of the "Tall Sycamore."

When the Wigwam, was thoroughly packed, Mr. Burnett introduced the Hon

Moses F. Dunn, who after a few preliminary remarks, in which he took occasion to pay a gracful coinplimcnt to the large number of ladies present, proceeded with a masterly speech of an hour and a half, in which he ably and eloquently reviewed the leading issues of the campaign as set forth in the platforms, State and National, of the Republicari"and Democratic pariies. His speech delighted every Republican who heard it, and many candid Democrats f-ank!y admitted that it was a splendid effort.

After a brief but searching discussion ot important general issues, he turned his attention to the record of Mr. Voorhees, showing his disregard of the interests of his constituents his gross neglect of his public duties, dodgiftg votes and running about the country attending to personal affairs bis shameful attempt to deceive the people by telling a willful falsehood about the payment of the public debt: his encouragement of a-ssassinatiou by his speech at the University .of A itg'nia,his general opposition to the (»jvcniment in its efforts to.suppress the rebellion his cordial sy.mpa.hy with and encouragement of the rebels, and many oilier items in the sinuous recofdof Voorhees. A\ bile he spoke many l)eroocra lost control of their usually amiable tempe'-s, while the jubilant Republicans, delighted at the magnificent success of their young champion, made the walls cclio with theii hearty applause, and cordially congratulated cacti o.her on hissplendid pe^irm-

ance. Mr. Voo'hee-s, on being introduced, was received with frantic yells, doubtless intended for applause, but sounding .like a menagerie accidentally spilled in a storm. This noise was kept up, almost incessantly, du.ing Vooibees' entire occupancv of the floor, the difficulty being that hundreds of the clacq-iers didn't know where the cheers should come in, and, for fear of missing the right places, mad- their howling nearly continuous.- ^Thisspeech, of an hour and a half's duration, was a rehash of Dan's old speeches with a great deal of new and irrelevant matter. Ninetenihsof what he said had nothing to do with pending political issues, and much of it was balderdash—sniff that would have been regarded as infra di in a circus clown of ordinary professional respectabilitv. We say this without intending anv injustice, believing that all fairminded men who listened to his string of silly twaddle were heartily ashamed to see a man of his reputation putting hi til-elf in so ridsctilous, not to say dis^ustin^, a position. He mad6 an ineffectual' attempt to crawfish out of his miserable falsehood, in regard to the payment of the p.iblic debt and for (-ended by virtually admitting that he had told a falsehood. Instead of reiterating the statement that none of ihe.interestbearing debt had been paid, he admitted that it wat being paid in gold, whereat he complained, thus-trying to cover a lie with a grievance.

James G. Corben and Clara T. Ball. Frederick Combv and Rosa Felix. John Bilger and Jaue Cumnrngs. Hugh Walker and Libhic Van Vlcck. "John li Brewster •'"id Lic?!(,i Gib.-on.

During the concluding speeches of both candidates, no general issues were discussed. but each "went for" the other's record, Dunn puUing in many heavy blows and Voorhees' retaliating with soiwc^degree ot adroitness. Ot course, the partisans of Voorhees c'.ained a victory for thoir "great leader," although many of them were honest enough to admit that, for a man of limited experience, Mr. Dunn showed remarkable ability in debate. One veherable Democrat remarked to us that he respected Mr. Dunn for his effort to confine the discussion to matters of pub" lie interest, and he severely deprecated Dan's constant attempts to shirk the consideration of such questions and occupy -time in trivialities altogether beneath a man of his reputation. lie regreted that Dan had not fairly met the issues as presented by his competitor, but had practiced evasion and the arts of a demasogue.
