A NEW passenger locomotive of the Rodger manufacture has arrived for the Terrc Haute and Indianapolis Railroad.

THE

CHURCH snd Congregilion of the

Congregational Church will meet at the parlors of the same, this evening to take action upon the resignation of the pastor, Rev. E. Frank Howe. A full attendance is desired.

MARTIN.the

Wizzard, had an immense

audience last evening, the largest that lias yet attended hisjperformances. The audience have steadily increased each evening, which is a very good indication of a superior entertainment.

THE THIRD

you want anything if you

have anything you want to get rid of if you have lost or found anything want to do anything or want anything done for you, advertise in the 25 cent column of the EXPBESS.

It is the best advertisement

you can have for the least money.

ARMY REUNION.—The

meeting of the

Army of the Cumberland takes place at Indianapolis to-morrow and next day.— We hope there will be a large delegation from our city. Let every soldier turn ent. There will be a good time generally.

Now.—Now is the time to advertise holiday goods. Let the people know what you have to sell. Keep it before them, and they will be bound to give you a call. He that advertises invites custom, and people are always better treated when they go where they are invited than where they are not.

CURE CORNS.—A

writer who pro

fesses to know what he is Jtalking about, says that the surest way to cure corns is to dissolve glue as you would to mend furniture spread it on the corns place muslin over them to prevent the glue from sticking to the stocking repeat the application a few times, and the cure will be perfect. If any of our readers try this receipe, we should like to know the result.

THE CIRCUIT COURT

convened yester

day morning, and after doing a very little business adjourned until Thursday, for the convenience of the lawyers. Itimigin remarks that our three courts are very much like three old hens with broods of half-grown chickens, following wherever the l.-\tter go. To make the simile plain he styles the Judges the hens, and the members of the bar the chickens. He thinks it about time we should have the good old style of court, which commenced {on the day appointed and went diligently to the work to be done. In those days the old hen clucked and the chickens had to dance attendance. J^is possible that court expenses might be materially reduced.

PERSONAL—G. W. HAYES

of Aurora,

MR.

111.

paid a flying visit to his father, Mr. Benjamin Hayes, a day or two since. He speaks in the most enthusiastic manner of A.

Jones, the president elect if our Normal School. He says there is but one opinion in Aurora. He is regraded as one of the very best educators in all the AVest. He speaks of

Jones as an excellent teach

er, an unsurpassed disciplinarian, governing more by tact, and inspiring respect "and affection then by force—a skilful manager who keeps all the machinery running smoothly and efficiently—a hard student and as an educator fully "up with the times" in all the best methods. He says that in Aurora he is not only esteemed as an efficient officer, but also as a valuable citizen and that his departure is universally regretted. These opinions of Mr. Hayes are entitled to more then ordinary respect, as he is himself an experience teacher and has been familiar with the schools under Mr. Jones supervision, though not a teacher in them.

How TO

MAKE HARD TIMES!—An

exchange says the following recipe has gone the rounds of newspaperdom before, but it is especially applicable at this time, and we republish it for the benefit of all concerned: Tl': IdL '~.L. "A good way to make 'hard times' is to refuse to pay all little bills, although you kave the money in your pocket push men to pay you who haven't the money, though you can get along without it if a man don't meet his obligations just at the time they become due, report that he is about to "bust cut down the wages of your hands before it is necessary keep back all your products until the prices get up to starvation rates use the money in speculation that you should pay your creditors with recollect that unnecessary retrenchments increase hard times instead of bettering them carry a long face and talk long and mournfully of evil to'come do these and other acts like them, and 'hard times' will surely come, however little real cause there is for them."

®f a St. Xgnls,

tion of the Old Proverb that "Truth is SI ranger than Fiction." 'J

Onr reador^are familiar with,.the fact tfiat some w^s since Senjamin 5.ladford, was indicated in our Criminal Court for bigamy, tried and acquitted. The matter was done op very quietly, and rumor has it that after the trial "all hands" had a merry time, in which wine floored freely, Inthishowever, itia proper to state that Judge Crain took no patt or pateel. Recent developments haVe shown that. it was a most damnable outrage upon law and decency. In the Cincinnati Timet we find the following sketch, which we pregpme originally appeared in one of the St. LouLs papers:

The incidents in the life of Benjamin 6. Sanford—one of the heirs to the immense Chouteau estate, and connected by mar riage and ties of dose consanguinity to some of the oldest, wealthiest and most reputable families of the city, if fully recorded, would find, but few parallels for insane folly or heartless cruelty. Blessed with the power of benefiting those with whom he came in contact, he may be said to have studiously employed his abilities in contriving how he could most indelibly disgrace himself and bring ehame and sorrow upon his relatives and friends. Possessed of ample means, there i.s no record that a single dollar was ever appropriated to worthy purposes.

Instead of employing it profitably in business or in his gratification of a taste for art, or elevating or even legitimate pleasure, he has wasted it on courtezans and drabs. Of a fine appearance, well educated, and united in marriage to a most excellent and reputable lady, capable of adorning any -society and gladly welcomed to the highest, his boon companions have been chosen from an entirely different class. Ills excesses and criminalities have been the town talk for years, 4ut were kept from newspaper publicity by the desire of all parties having control of the city press to shield and protect the reputation of his family. As, however, the law is soon to take cognizance of them, there can be no good reason ui-gcd in favor of continued secrecy..

In 1858, Benj. C. Sr.nford, who is.the grandson of Pierre Chouteau, was infer-' ried to Miss Louisa Berthold, daughter of A. P. Berthold, Esq. There was nothing in the conduct of the husband for a year or more succeeding the marriage to attract unusual attention, and the general opinion was that it was not only an appropriate,, but a very happy union. He was left in possession of the income arising from over a half million dollars worth of property, the bequest of Pierre Chouteau, amounting to about 550,000 per annum. With a wise precaution, the absolute disposition of the property was not eutrnsted to him, it being placed in the custody of trustees, the terms of the will being, that at his death, first his wife, and then his issue were to succeed to the income.

If he died jwithout children, the fee simple, of what now amounts to over half a million dollar' worth of real estate, was to revert to the immediate heirs of Pierre Chouteau. With such a magnificent income, it was naturally to be expected that the future of Ben Sanford and his young and lovely bride could not be more promising of happiness. Such it would doubtless have been had not the tendency and disposition of the man been utterly bad. VISIT TO BELLEVILLE AND WHAT CAME

OF IT. T'V"'".

With a party of friends, less than two years ago, Sandford paid a visit to Belle ville, where he fell in with a young and decidedly handsome girl named Louisa Hall, and forgetful of his marital vows, or of his position in society, he became so enamored of her charms that he proposed marriage, and after a short but agreeable courtship, was accepted. Possessed of a confiding nature, the silly girl took no pains to inquire into the antecedents of her lover, believing that he was what he represented himself to be—unmarried.

They were legally, but secretly, married, by a justice, and took a brief wedding tour, when ho suddenly lett his bride, alleging "pressing business" as the cause. He returned to St. Louis, and, for some time, divided his attention between his two wives neither, of course, being conscious of the existence of the other.

It was now too late for repentance, if indeed he ever felt the pangs of guilt. Like Lady Macbeth's blood-marks, it would not out at his or any other's bidding. Not conscience, for with this he had but little to do, but the fear of exposure probably now began to torment him. In an evil hour a friend met him in Illinois with the second bride, and kindly asked after his family, and was surprised at the faux pas he had committed.

The Hall wile, loth to believe that she

was the dupe of a villain, inclined to his statement that it was all ajoke, but'deter mined to ferret out the truth of the matter, and visiting St. Louis, learned that in law she was not his wife, but his mistress She called upon Sandford, and demanded to know the truth from his own lips.— Forced to admit that he had basely deceived her, he offered as a compromise to settle upon her $2,800 to purchase a home in Illinois, and a regular income of $100 pet- month. It does not matter for the purpose of this article what struggle she passed through at dtus being turned off, dishonored and disdained, the result was that she accepted the latter part of the proposition, and made St. Louis her home. Her life was henceforth a blank. Her honor had been sacrificed, and al though innocent herself, she looked upon her virtue as incurably tainted

Deceived by a scoundrel in whom she had placed implicit confidence, she thought she had under the present unequal laws governing society but one path left to pursue—a life of shame—and like thousands of others, plunged into the vortex of dissipation and vice. Passing from one grade to another, she finally opened an assignation house on Fifth street. For several months she received regularly the promised instalment of $100, during which she kept silent concerning the wrongs and the cause of her disgrace.

Sanford paid no heed to the lessons of experience so dearly bought, and instead of devoting his time to his wife and child fell still lower in the scale of morality, taking up his quarters openly and Notoriously with Kate Chase, one of the worst representatives of the social evil in this city.

At her house he was a frequent visitor, and upon her he lavished innumerable costly gifts. Early in the summer his lawful wife left for the East, for the benefit of her health, where she remained for several months. In the meantime Sanford remained in this city, and was taken very ill at the Laclede hotel, and upon his recovery he went East and joined his wife. At that time we were in possession of the facts now narrated, and out of respect to her family connections refrained from publishing them, nor would we do so now were we not justified by the fact of a suit of divorce being prepared and sworn to by Mrs. Louisa Hall, as prepared and sworn to by Musser & DecKer, her attorneys and which will be filed to-dav.

A BOGUS TRIAL AND ACQUITTAL. It is impossible in the limits of a brief and hurried article to give all the facts in so eventful a history, covering as this does, eight or ten years. We can only hope to give the main facts. It is stated that only a short time ago, in company with a 1 -wyer' from fhis city, Sanforci went t" Indiana, procured himself indicted for bigamy, and after a trial, managed by his own counscl and in his own interest, was acquitted. This much accomplished, lie withdrew the monthlv allowance up to that time paid to the Hall wife, being assuredthat he was no longer legally liable. How far this is true remains to be proved when the particulars of the case shall be made known.

STILL ON THE CHASE.J

A fMLjsreeks ago he returned to the city, l&mng his wife in Springfield, Illinois, for the purpose of persuading Kate Chase to accompany him and remain in that city as his paramour, and when last heard from he was in New York city with the same person, and though frequently written to by Mrs. Hall's counsel, has not deigned a response, his apparent ilicy being to pat on a bold faco and

pone brav

the matter out. ALIMONY WANTED. In connection with the petition for divorce, a motion for alimony pendante tite will be filed, and if granted, Sandford's trustee will be called upon to meet the order of the court. A commission to take depositions in the case will also be asked for, and when thev shall h?ve be^n filed.

some interesting developments may be looked for. As it is, the case is one of the

fserves to showing infatuation in

a still stronger light, is the fact that the Chase woman is neither handsome nor fascinating. She has but one eye, is tall, angular and vulgar, and totally void of any quality that conld be supposed to interest a man like Sanford, yet he follows her as ^though she was posseasedof a Circ£«& Spell? forsaking .home, honor and friends, and blasting beyond recovery a reputation already a hiss and a byword. He has one child—near three years old, by hte'legalwife, and one by the Hall woman. Now that the matter has been made public, the Berthold family will, we learn, take immediate steps in law he islca4t offin/ac/fromallclaims upon their countenance or support.

To the Editors']} the .Express! The courteous terms and animus of a communication in yonr paper of yesterday, signed "Citizen," have induced me to depart from the rule which ordinarily prevails with me, touching anonymous publications. TJie subject mailer of Citizen's note claims to be regarded as of some importance to the public. In reply thereto, I would make the following statement.

At the la3t day of the Convention (Thursday,) recently held in this city, the Rev. Mr. White, a gentleman (properly {accredited,) came to our city, desirous of delivering a course of lectures in defense of Protestantism against the aggressions of Romanism. It was determined that Mr. White should have a hearing. It was preferred that jthe lee-, tures should begin on Friday night at the Congregational Church, where the Convention sat, which adjourned on Thursday. That church not being at our disposal, it was determined that the first lecture should be at the First Presbyterian Church. •Mteir lecture a conference of such of the city pastors as were present was called to meet. To this conference were invited such members of the Temperance Committee as were present. At this meeting the Rev. Mr. Stimson presided. It was thought best at that meeting that a larger room than either of our churches should be obtained for the nse of Mr, White on Sabbath. The place determin ed on was Dowling Hall. A committee were appointed to wait upon the mem bors of tiie Temperance Committee to request them to let Mr. White have the use of the Hall .for Sabbath afternoon. The undersigned had been appointed to procure the Hall. The committee to see the gentlemen of the Temperance Committee reported to me that fourteen of the com mittee of .eighteen had been seen, andhad riven their consent to the use of the Hall tor Mr. White, one had not been seen and two were out of town.

I thereupon called upon Col. Dowling, the owner of the Hall, to obtain his con sent for the use of it for the purpose stated above. To this Col. Dowling did not consent. The Temperance Committee having kindly surrendered for the use of Mr. White the time and place, I then requested I

of Col. Dowling, as an independent proposition that he would allow me to have the Hall for the parties I represented, either gratuitously or for pay. This he declined. It gives me pleasure to give him the credit substantially of the reason assigned by him for his declining a ieason based upon declarations of his interest (as an avowed conservator of our Christianity) in its welfare the he has opposed there discussions.

In reply I stated, substantially, that Christianity was placed upon Us defense, by reason of the aggressions of Romanism and that I had the assurance from Mr. White, that his purpose was in the contemplated lecture to present the doctrines of the Roman chureh on Trans-Svbstantia' tion as taught in their own standards. To the proposition that a Protestant should present the Romantenets on Trans-Substan-tiation, he objected.

It was Col. Dowling's Hall (though for public uses,) it was his right to refuse or allow me to have the use of the Hall for the parties I represented, It was mine to make the request. This I did and I thus give in substance the facts connected therewith, as due to the public, Colonel Dowling and the interest 1 had the honor to represent. Yours respectfully. 'I GEO. MORRISON,
