THE

WHEAT MIRKET was somewhat

firmer yesterday. Choice Alabama was readily taken At $1,10, an^ choice Mediteranean at $1.00. Receipts are falling off somewhat, though a large amount is still being delivered on old contracts.— The difficulties in the way of transporta tion are but slightly diminished. Ware bouses, depots and mills are crowded with wheat and flour.

MR. GOLLETT'S REPORT.—WO had intended to publish, this morning, the report of Mr, Josephus Collett upon the condition of the railroad between Dan ville and Chicago, but as that report was written in compliance with a resolution of th^City Council, and is intended to be submitted to that body at its next meet ing,~the friends of the T. H., D. & Railroad movement thought it might bo regarded as hardly the proper course to publish it before its submission. In obedience to their wish, therefore, we re frain from giving publicity to Mr. Gollett's statement. We can assure our citizsns, however, that the most satisfactory progress is being made in thq construction of the line and that the best inform «d railroad men entertain no doubt that at will be pushed forward with energy to an early completion. There is evtfry reason to believe that the cars will be running the whole distance, l°^3 miles, from Ghicsgo to Danville by the time the road Jxjm this oity to Danville can be completed, even should the greatest efforts be made to facilitate and push on the work,' It is hoped that the Council will find Mr. Gollett's report as favorable as their most sanguine expectations, and that they will not hesitate to vote the $100,000 appropriation asked for by a large proportion of the tax-payers of Tern Haute.

A BKAUTITCL MONUMENT.—We were shown, yesterday, at the marble works of the Palmer Brothers, on North Third street, a monument recently imported from Aberdeen, Scotland, to be placed on the family lot of Wm. Mack, Esq., at our city cemetery. It is made from a block of red Scotch granite, polished to a very high order of lu«tre, and will be admired by all who are capable of appreciating monumental architecture. This material has been but little nsed in this country, heretofore, but its exquisite beauty will be likely to bring it into general favor, especially as it is but little, if any, more expensive than Italian marble. Thosa of our readers who have never seen any thing of the kind will ba repaid for a visit to the shop

:of

the Palmer Brothere, where

the monument will be kept for a few days.

THE THIRD ANNUAL PAIR of the Honey Creek Agricultural Sooiety was held yesterday in the grove near the residence of John Weir, Esq., six ogles south of the city, and was quite an interesting exhibition of this year's bountiful harvest. It was interesting, not that there was a large collection of articles on exhibition, that there was a large crowd in attendance, or that the treasury of the society was filled with money, but that it brought together the bronzed and hard-banded faAners of the neighborhood with their wives and daughters in a pleasant social gatboring, to examine and admire.the best articles of each other's growing, and to profit by each other's experiences. For a mere township fair, the exhibition wa a real success. The show of apples, pears' peaches, grapes, melons, —wheat —GKte, corn, potatoes, pumpkins, cabbage, beans and other vegetables was exceedingly good, and many of the specimens would take high rank at any County or State fair. No cash premiums were given, thus subjecting the society to no danger of loss in case of failure and, indeed, it seemed as if the red ribbons, which the several committees were distributing during the afternoon, were the more highly prized for this very reason.

We could not obtain the list of premiums for this issue, but will publish the same, so soon as it is prepared by the Secretary. iw

The example of the good people of Honey Creek township is worthy of imitation byr other townships. Gould such exhibitions be held in every township just preceding the County Fair it would foe ter a taste for agriculture an3 horticulture which would cause that annual exhibition to be anything but what it is.

THE COWHIDE.—Frank Cunningham, formerly of this city, but for several years past a resident of Indianapolis, cowhided J6hn Dixon, the boolt-keeper cf the Trade Palace dry goods store, in that city. The Sentinel gives the following version of the disgraceful affair:

Mrs. Cunningham drove up io the Trade Palace in the mdrningand ordered a small bill of goods. They were delivered to her by the salesman, who also delivered a message, by instruction of Mr. Dixon, to the effect that the bill would be sent to the house at three o'clock P. M., and as they had previously had some difficulty with Mr. Cunningham about the settlement of a bill due to the store, they expected that Mrs. C. would see that there was a prompt response to this bill. Mrs. Cunningham, regarding the message as an affront, thereupon ordered the salesman to return the good] to the counter and drove ofl'.

At about half-paet two o'clock, Mr. Cunningham met Mr. Dixon, returning from dinner, on the Gircle, and drawing a cowhide, soundly belabored Mr. Dixon, who made no resentment whatever, but filed a warrant against Mr. Cunningham for assault and battery. The above are the simple facts in the case. Whether Mr. Cunningham was justified in taking the law into bis own hands to redress what he regarded a private grievance an insult to his wife—will readily be determined by a correct public judgment. No man ia justified in attempting to de grade another without tbe most apparent justifying reasons. Mr. Dixon, as we are informed, was acting under instruction?, and was only the agent, not the principal, so far as the offense was concered to which Mr. Cunningham took umbrage. We are also advised that Mr. Dixon is a non rosistant from principle, believing and professing to practice the Christian doc trine that when one cheek is smitten to turn the other. We must confess that we have not that kind of discipline over ourselves to keep down the old Adam under such a provocatien. The astailed in this case would have commanded respect, with the same remedy at law, if he had exhibited a disposition to resent the indignity. We bad concluded that it would be better for all parties interested to keep tbe affair out ot the papers, but as it is to be made public through that channel, it is no more than just that the naked fasts should be given, so that tbe public can form their own conclusions in the matter.

~Tnz Insoracce Sf haman life attracted but Ititle attention in Uils coon-: try until within comparatively a recent period, but is now rapidly increasing, and has already assumed magnificent proportions. From au examination of tho last annual report of Superintendent Barnes, of New York, it appears that the amount now at risk by life associations transacting business in that State, is about double what it was three years ago, and is nearly one half of the amount insured against loss by fire, in the various Fire Insurance

Companies. This progress argues alike the prudence, wisdom and benevolence of the American people. Among the most successful of the companies, and one which eeems in a remarkable degree to have won popular favor is th9 National Life Insurance Company, of the United States of America. Its first year's businesss is just concluded, and anjamount seyoral fold exceeds that transacted in it? first year, by any other life insurance company in the world. That the business already done i9 safe and judicious for that compa-. ny is evidenced by the fact, that the persons insured are scattered among all the

States of the country, so that no single epidemic or contagion can measurably affect the risk incurred, and that the agencies are so wildely scattered and so well established, is an earnest a*d a surety that the second year's business, of the Company will far surpass that ol its first year. We know the character cf the Gompany, of the gentlemen having it in charge, and congratulate our people that they have the opportunity of securing at sovdry reasonable rates, insurance so absolutely safe. Mr. fl. J. Keeler is its authorized agent for this city

TEACHERS' INSTITUTE.

FOURTH DAY.

The Institute met at nine o'clock yesterday morning, and, after roll oall, Mr Byers led in the. devotional exercises.

Mr. Paige continued his drill in vocal culture^ at the close of which, at the unanimous request of the teachers, he suag "Mrs. Lofty," which was rendered with fine effect and was warmly applaud ed by all present. —Miss Carde gave her class a drill on fractional parts, giving illustrations that children can easily understand. -—Prof: Wiley conducted a reading exercisexn pag0 231, McGuffev's Fifth Reader, and'gBVB'a rendering of the "Bachelor's Gane Bottomed Chair." He said scholars shoulehstxtdy closely thir thought toT the writer and the manner of expretxng it

Mrs. S. E. Moore continuing the sub jeet of JSTataral History, read a paper on ibe-'iDifctubutiou of -AnimaW-'—In the vegetable, world we find special kinds of plants and trees established by nature in certain localities. A cloee analogy with these facts is -found-in-lhe -aaioaal -world The Esquimaux and Laplander, inhabitiDg tbepolar regions-from tlflae immemorial so the negfoes in Congo, the Hindoos in India inhaoit their respective regions. The Caucasian race of superior endowments, have broken- from their original, limits, and spread them'

Ail the races however widely they differ, belong to one great family—the mind the same in all. ,The instinct with which man, .as well as. theJo.wer animals cliog to their original locaities, is one of th9 mut -beautiful .evidences- of Divine

lower orders of animals observe

the same law of geograpical distribution as' that of man." The pumber of fishes in the variods waters of the earth, surpasses all human comprehension. The importance of fishes a» a source of national wealth and their geographical distribution are matters of inter«aU. ...Every animal has ill own territory and each a history ofits TJwm—When -the-tfcudy of external naturals exhausted, thsre is another to which--to turtr—to -tbe-parasites w-itfrin our bodies feeding on our subtance,.or fo637 TE'efd are"ceuntles3 beings known only by the aid of the microscope. Geology reveals wonders, in the immense numbers of animals that have existed in ages past, fulfill*! their destiny, and left their trace in\he sands and rocks of the earth.

Mr. Greenawault, on teaching History, presented three methods, and commented on each, first, asking questions as they are printed at the bottom of the page or at tho end of the lesson second, calling on some one to commence the recitation and another to continue it third, preparing a synopsis of the lesson, giving it to the class when the lesson, is assigned, and re quiring them to recite it by topics, eliciting criticism and adding collateral information. He prefers the third method.

Mr. Byers, on Grammsr, conducted a very interesting exercise in correcting false syntax.

The spelling for tbe prize elicited a good deal pf interest it was a written eiercise. Fifty words from McGuffey's Speller were pronounced, and the first trial resulted in a tie between Miss Mary Stoner and Miss Ella Kesler, each having spelled all the words correctly. Further trial resulted in favor of Mies Kesler.— The prize was "Barnard's EJucational Aphorisms.''

By a unanimous request of the teachers tbe Rev. Mr. Gbeever was called on for a speech- He'drew a lively and amusing picture of his experience as teacher thirty years ago. He spoke of the nobleness of the profession, and the modern improved systems of instruction.

Thomas B. Long, Eq addressed the teachers. Spoke of the general good feeling that seemed to exist among tbe teachers, of the success of tbe Institute, and hoped to be able to hold two Institutes instead of one, this year.

Prof. Wiley on School Organization said: The toaeher's po\^r is tested in the organization of the school. It will not suffice to trust to some happy expedient that may present itself in the time of need. Have well digested plans, know what you propose to do, and the order of the same.
