THE FINEST GOAT AND KID SHOES For Ladies, ever brought to Town, are now at McCalla & Co.'s.
Nobby suns, neat-fitting and handsome, are turned out daily by Ben. McGee, the Artist Tailor, at bis emporium of fashion, on the south aide of the public square. A peculiarity of MoGee's suits is that while they fit snugly vto thas. form, as if moulded, they are perfectly easy no binding or sensation of drawing. In fact, they haw the peculiarity of all proper-fitting clothes : yon are unconscious of the fact that you have them on your person, and so don't feel constrained and uncomfortable as is the case with the clothes cut by many Tailors. McGee has the best piece goods the market affords and trims with only first-class trimmings, buttons, etc. A spring suit should be ordered now, so that it may take its place early in the list.

Matson Re-nominated by tne Democrats. The Congressional convention for the Fifth District met in Gosport on Tuesday of last week to nominate a candidate for Congress. There was an immense crowd, four or five brass bands and an unlimit
ed supply of red liquor the visiting Republicans drank iu the music while the Democrats drank the "hot stuff." On the call of counties for nominations, saye the Indianapolis Journal, flvo names were placed before the convention, viz.George W. Cooper, of Bartholomew ; C. C. Matson, of Putnam ; Thos.W. Woollen,

and a footing of the veto showed that
Matson.had received nmety-nvc, and was
nominated. In the meantime, however, there had been some noisy and turbu

01 tho outsiders, out tno asiegaies mvuut on Matsen were callous to the justice of his cause, and they quailed not at seeing the man's pride humilintod and trampled upon by brute fores of numbers. The real sensation of the day was the speech of Samuel Balaton, an anti-Matson delegate from Spencer. Ho presented a magnificent address, and from the beginning to the and of a lengthy speech ostensibly to second the nomination of Mitchell, the speaker fairly flayed Matson alive. His fusillade of invective against the Congressman was terrifflc. Ho was greeted with howls, hisses and groans, and was threatened with personal violence, but amid all the din ho maintained a placid composure that few men could have done under similar circumstances. In the face of tho angry and boisterous crowd he remained as importurbable as a granite column, and ho continued his speech to the end though frequently interrupted. He denounced MaUon as a trickster and demagogue, and declared that the plea that the people were demanding Matson's renomination was "a libel upon Domocracy.'' Replying to the assertion that the soldiers would not bo satisfied with any other nomination than Matson's. the sneaker said :
"I wish to nlant mvself on the rock of
eternal truth in defense of the soldiers,
and hurl back into tho blasphemous lips frnm whence it enme this monstrous lie."
Continuing he said : "If the soldiers of Owon county are clamoring for Matson,
why is it that our delegation aoes noi, assume a different complexion. There are twfintv deleiriitcs from Owen county who
are the first "is sue of a cohabitation between
pension anents. Dostmasters and medical
boards, and who would have been for Mat-
son to a man had it not Doen lor a tew

son as "a man whose treachery leaps tho
boundary lines of thought," and thought
thv4 "district ousrht to be represented by a
man who had ability enough to gra.p this
national issue, (..oionei aiutson s time iur

lation nnd to noliticnl trickery in his own
interest." During the delivery of Ealstonjs nhilinnic a nandemonium reiened. It is
alleged that some of Matson's most desnerate followers had planned to offer per
sonal violence to the speaker, and that they were only prevented carrying out
