W E desire to correct the name n«ed in our «iitori4lyesterday, with reference to Col. Stri-ight's connection with the tunneling Hcheroe out of Libby prison. It was Col. Thomas H. Rose, Col. of the 77th Penn. volunteer regiment, who planned the escape.

A CARD.

A report has been circulated here by uome buaybodies to the effect that the undersigned intends to leave this papeT at an early day. The report is without foundation. There is no reason why I should leave, but many reasons why I should stay, the Express being a paying infrtitution and the position that I hold a desirable one. The persons who started and eirculated the report would consult their bent interest* anil oblige the under»i#ned by attending to their own business and not interfere with mine.

JAMRS II. MCNKBLY.

We are glad to hear that the rejort current upon the streets that Mr. McNcely waJi about to leave the city

is

information,

contradicted

by the above' card. Mr. McNeely

is

a

gentleman iu every sense of the word, and we are delighted to hear that he will make this his future home. The people of Terre Haute are to be congratulated upon this

for when

a

man once

becomes a bona fide resident of Terre ilnute, he forsakes all other alliances both offensive and defensive, and

a

even though he be, can easily tell

stranger

a

Terre

Uautentot by his peculiar air of self respcct.

THE CITY COUNCIL.

It ha« puMsed ordinances and the executive department' of the government has fuiled to have thein enforced. The most notable case of this kind was in the eouneil condemning the opera House as an unsafe building, fuming an ordinance requiring that projnrr avtjnuoB of t^cat be provided for the people in case of fire or panic, and then never enforcing the ordinance. Although the Courier has fre oueutly iushttcu. on the enforcement of this ordinance in order that the lives of the people, particularly of the women and children might not

be

jeopardizod. it ha*

remained n.s a dead letter upon the city'h statue books, and we venture the assertion that city blllcers go to entertainments at the Opera House on free parses issued by the managers.—Saturday Courier,

We hereby give notice to the Mayor and Common Council, that the law abidIjig eltiiucnftof fcliis city will gee that the iore violation of the city ordinnncesshall enforced.

TtlKRK wan not a person present at the court holise this afternoon but who would walk a long ways to hear Nelson again, and we trust they will have the opportunity during the caiunaign. His speech wit* a •brilliant, vivid portrayal of the records of the Republican and Democratic parties, and wan presented in a manner calculated to copvlnee and persuade all candid nan.~*.Mf(rft««m Courier,

We clip the above from the Indianapolis Journal of this morning and add, that Tom Nel*nn was never known to rtiake a speech that was pro^y and dull. And every man. woman or child who has heard him speak in his* brilliant manner of the records of the Democratic and Republican parties, is convinced that he is thoroughly acquainted with their hist ories. and we can tell the people of Madison that thev should never fail to hear Col, Tom Nelson make a speech, trhen they have the opporlUnity.

The Indianapolis .Journal and the MWight bureau are enjoying a lively tucket at the present time The Journal seems to be laboring under a prolonged bilious attack, and is afllieied with a desire to strike a head wherever it sees one.

MW.

Tlie Journal to not in favor of bureaus and thinks that freight is not the right man. The Journal is in favor of the man who rati stand on his own footing.

THK London Times snys the entire civirtaml world i* interested to the construction of the Isthmus canal that the canal would jEive European countries shorter and better parage to the western coasts of America. The Tinier doesn't think the Americans should iusist on the e.vclu* siv« right to control this matter it being a matter of benefit to all civiliied nations.

l\*m Dennis Kearney is in a new spring suit of striped clothes which he will wear for some time. Beseemed anxious to know how many hours each day he would have to work. He was evidently born tired.

TitK English training ship, Atlantis, is without doubt at Ui« bottom of the »». On the 3rd of April the steamer Par* passed through a large amount of wreckage, evidently that of tire missing riiip.

YKKTKRDAY ft commitment was made out. for Dennis Kearney and he .was placed in a cell at the Honse of Correction, Ilia counsel will apply at one* for a writ of habeas corpus. This is a terrible blow on the mighty chieftain, and illustrates the principle that the people in iu California as elsewhere, demand that law and order shall prevail.

THE .New York Democratic convention meets to-day. There will be a hard fight between Tilden and Kelly for the support of the convention.

TIIR dispatches this morning seem to think that Uortschakoff is shamming the dying bu*iues»considerably.

IF yon drink liiko water at Cleveland you will get tiie Erie-aip-alaa 1 "NOKR but the brave deserve the linlr," is the way the Indians pnt it,

EVF.N criminals like paragraphs that is to pay, they prefer a short sentence. THK proper form of will now-a-days will read "To the respective attorneys of my children I give my entire estate." •'A ITAIR on'the head is worth a dor-en in the hash "saysan exchange. But then it doesn't attract so much attention.

THAT waa a wise colored man who, in speaking of the hajppinesof married people, said "Dat'ar pends allogedder how dey ityoy demselvee."

WHAT are the best stories? That depends. When you are tellinfr them, the long ones are when you are listening, the short ones.

Tins life IURV be, asstern moralists say, all a liceting snow, )jut it is an exhibition from which dead-heads are rigidly excluded.

Wnss the dentista of this coontry can discover a way to pull teeth without making a man wish he had been born a hen, life will have twice as much brightness.

TUB difference between A sclf-mad, man and a self-mad, woman is ten old papers, four hair switches, ninety-eight hairpins, an«l a pretty little box labeled face-pow-der, "ALWAYS try tohit the nail on the bead, my boy," said an uncle to his nephew: but the nephew's little cousin whispered to him, "Don't hit the nidi on your finger, For it hurts awfal."

Wt«s the old gentleman comes home and finds his daughters have got his slippers and the eveuing paper ready fbr him, he realises that it is the season for fall opening of his pocketbook.

Soxs women are very ataeht-minded, and frequently forget where they left the dish-pan after using it, but the world haunt yet produced a woman who ever forgot where she hong her false hair before retiring. 'lim yon tell me"~-«aid a punster who had in our sanctum popped, and upon the floor was seeking tor a copper he had dropped—"cau you tell me why at pre®entT am like Noah's weary dove 2" And he glanced with inward tremor towards a gun that hung above. "Would* thou kcowf he queried, bhukdlr—as he dodged the codgel tftout which we ahied at him in ang®r—*"tia because I'm ooe cent out."
