Doherty Sues For Libel-
Chattanooga Times: Matt Daugherty, one of tlie proprietors of the Empire livery stalk-, entered suit yesterday in the Circuit Court againBt W. B. Carr and G. W. Paul, for $25000 alleging slander. Daugherty and Carr joined in with M. M. Henderson in the purchase of the stable, and a disagreement arising among them the court was called in to settle it by appointing a receiver. Daugherty, along with the defendents hails from Crawfordsvllle, Ind. he charges that during a recent visit to his old home, Carr and Paul circulated a report that he would not return and defamed him by the use of such words as "scoundrel" and "thief," hence the suit for slander.

Intensely Insane.
Silas Misner, of Smartsburg, canie to this city Thursday and lingered a good long time at the flowing bowl. About 8 o'clock p. m., he got into his wagon and ran his horses from this city to bis home. Upon reaching there he began tearing things up generally at the same time cursing his wife and aged mother. Growing tired of this he went into the street and terrified the people in the little village until most of them left. But two men in the village, John Maston and Elijah Kennedy, had the nerve to tackle him. Arter a severe struggle he was finally bound hand and foot, and brought to this city and lodged in jail. Thursday mormug his relatives came to the city and swore out insanity papers. A sanity commission composed of Esquire Ramsey, J. W. Cum be) laud and Dr. Cowan repaired to the jail and held and inquest. As a result they declared Mr. Misner insane and papers have been forwarded to the asylum at Iudianapolis. If approved he will be sent there at once. The cause of his misfortune is supposed to have arisen from a blow of a club which he received from the hands of a colored tough during a brawl in this city about a year ago, together with the constant UBO of strong drink. The parents of Mr. Misner, who are among the best and most respectejl people in the county, have the sympathy of every person in their misfortune.

A report is circulating that the Midland will at once extend its track from Brown's Valley to Waveland. As the concern has not perhaps over $1.25 in its treasury, and Is owing a number of men for track construction two years ago, from Ladoga to Brown's Valley, the talk of its building anything Is perhaps nothing but wind. It is very probable that nothing would suit Crawford better than for some syndicate to come along and take the property off his hands.
There must have been a great mortality at Terre Haute withiii the few past'few years. Heretofore any citizea of that place asked the number of its inhabitants would always place the figures from 35,000 to 40,000. Accurate returns by the census enumerators just completed place the population at 82,000. The same dreadful mortality Is also noticed at Indianapolis, which city claiming a population of 25,000, shows less than 110,000 from the bonks of the enumerator.

Pettit Will Stay With Us.
The attorneys in the Pettit case, DeHart, Stuart, Kumler and Gajlord for the defense, Prosecutor Haywood and Col. Wilson for the state, came down from Lafayette Monday mormug. Owing to business occupying the attention of the court at that time the argument was not heard until 2 o'clock p. m. The counsel for the defense opened the argument with a strong plea to have the prisoner returned to Lafayette. Mr. Haywood spoke for the State. He said that the defense had so far had maters their own way. that all the delays in coming to the trial could be laid at the doors ofjft defense, and that a reuiandment cut no fiflK In the case except to delay it. That the SlTte was now readv for trial and has been for some time, and asked the court to keep the prisoner in Montgomery county, and to set as early a date as possible for the case to be tried He spoke at some length and at times grew'almost eloquent. After some deliberation, the Judge over ruled the motion for a remandment and the case will be tried here. The day set for the trial is Oct. 8. The prisoner was called up'*' and the Indictment returned by the Tippecanoe grand jury was read to him to which he replied firmly and distinctly, "not guilty." The prisoner at all times appeared cool and collected, even mare so than any of the attorneys and looked and acted more like a visitor in court than a man on trial for his life. The defense asked for twenty days time to (ill a bill gittntltfi "S
