A REPORT Was current in the city yesterday afternoon that Col. Charley Gilmore was dead, but it could not be traced to any authentic Bource.

•WE

call attention to the advertisement ofthe N. Y. Methodist in another column. It is one of the best religious and family papers in the country.

^CONTRACTORS

"OLD

on the this end of the

THE BRAZIL people say that Dr. Pierce's North and South Railroad is bound to run from Brazil north, "appropriation or no appropriation."

CALL at B. G. Cox & Co's this morning and see the original of James F. Gookins •'Fairy Marauders," and some choice flowers from Heinl Bros, now on exhibition.

ANOTHER surgical operation has been performed upon Jackson, the man who had his leg crushed near the Early grove, some weeks since, and fears are now entertained that he cannot recover.

THE CONDITION of the roads in Clay county has caused an almost entire suspension of business in the county. It is impossible to move a team with an empty wagon.

THINGS shall becomo new." The

old folks concerts which had such a run a number of years ago, are being revived, and meet with great success wherever given. We see that Father Kemp and bis vocal corps of old folks are on a singing tour again this season. Hope they will not pass us by.

is stated that the agent, who has been prospecting in indianapolis, Lafayette, Terre Haute and other Indiana cities for a site for a Wheeier & Wilson sewing machine factory, to replace the one burned at Bridgeport, Connecticuthas conditionally selected live acres of land in Indianapolis near the N. W. C. University. The Indianapolis Journal of yesterday says:

The agent has gone back East to report to the company, and in all probability the factory will" come here. If so, the company will bring with them two hundred workmen with their families, and the factory will add at least seven or eight hundred to our population. A little village of workmen's homes will spring up around the factory, and its influence will be good and beautiful. We sincerely trust Indianapolis may secure the location of this concern. The company is wise in coming West, and there is no better point than Indianapolis. Indiana is ricli in the walnut timber which is required in the manufacture of sewing machines, and her central location is peculiarly advantageous for shipments.

This is a prize worth looking after and we commend the matter to the attention of our public spirited citizens. The appears not to haVe been definitely decided and the company is, doubtless, ready to consider any proposals that may be made.

TERRE HAUTE, Jan. 25, 1870.

At a meeting of Terre Haute Lodge, No. 51,.I. O. O. F.,

at their Hall, to at

tend the funeral of Carlton A.Goodwin, the following preamble and resolutions were adopted:

WHEREAS, Having been advised of the death of Carlton A. Goodwin, a member of this Lodge, by suicide on the morning ofthe 23d inst.,"at his residence in this city. This sad event has sent a thrill of melancholy over the feelings ot all who knew him. Our deceased friend and Brother, generous and kindly disposed in his social relations, his attachments ardent, hi friendship true, securing thereby many warm friends who, to-day, deplore his untimely end. In his associations Avith this Order he was ever active in the discharge of duty and had received many of its honors his heart and hand was ever open to the needy and distressed, bestowing his bounties with a liberal hand at his country's call he went forth and did a yeoman's service in her behalf, but while our Brother had a large share ofthe virtues that adorn the human charactcr, he like many other good men had his weakness, he became the victim to the greatest enemy of the human race, that monster intemperance in an evil hour through evil associations and a generous and social nature, he was led to form habits that proved his bodily ruin, and while we would throw the mantle of charity over the fault's of our erring Brother, and remember only his virtues we must not forget the lesson of the hour and deal with the admonition it gives. Be it therefore:

Resolved, That in the untimely death of our late brother, Carl A. Goodwin, we deeply regret the circumstances of, and the causes leading to this sad event, admonishing 11s that another victim has been added to the long list already recorded of that greedy and insatiate monster intemperance.

Resolved, That as the ritual of our Order teach us that intemperance is of all vices the vilest of the vile, it is a duty enjoined upon us as an Order, individually and collectively, to discountenance it under any and all circumstances, mere especially within the jurisdiction of the Order.

Resolved, That the familyand friends of our deceased Brother have our deep and abiding sympathy in this great affliction, and while we can offer no consolation to scoththe anguish of hearts so stricken, our Order assures tliem that the widow and orphan is remembered in their day of trouble.

Resolved, That we will attend the funeral of our deceased Brotber with the ufual ceremonies of the Order.

Resolved, That these resolutions be spread upon the minutes and published in the city papers, ARMSTRONG. .. Rec. Sec'y.

IMPORTANT

The attention of

Jlardioare Dealers, Car arid

House Builders and etimers is respectfully invited to the PATENT NEVER t'AILfSU SELF-LOCKING

"WINDOWrFAST." This is decidedly the best and most important invention of modern times. Its simplicity and wonderful adaption both for HOUbJi and AR.WINDOWS is perfectly astonishing accomplishing everything that can possibly be desired, and yet being cheaper than any other window fast. For houso windows it dispenses with weights and pullys, operating equally well on top and bottom sash, allowing either to be raised or lowered as much or little as wished to secure ventilation, and yet be looked securely at every point, from the intruder or burglar, and will never get out of order. It has the peculiar element of locking itself in whatever position you leave it. or steam or horse car windows tbey are finished in a variety of styles, making an elegant finish to the ear windows, and the only arrangement ever introduced that can never fail.
