THUNDER AITD LIGHTNING1—Oneof the most terrific and startling thunder storms that has visited thin locality for a long time passed over the city yesterday even ing. Three electrical explosions, with loud reports, followed each other in such quick succession as appalled the stoutest hearts. Horses were frightened and ran in every direction, while some fell, ter ror-stricken, to the ground. One team belonging to a. colored man, started from near the Opera Honse, ahd ran through the alley back of Barr's drag store. On coming out on Third street one of the hones ran against a post tearing off its shoulder and injuring it adbadly that it was afterwards shot. The small children in many of the schools were terribly frightened. Some cowered beneath the desks, others cried, •while the most of them looked imploringly to the teachers as" If to save them from pofae impending dinger. We hear of thafdaBtering being i^aken from the ceilinga^ofe a number of houses, and almost every building in town was .shaken as if a Bmall earthquaTce had caused the agitation

The lightning struck il» rod on the steeple of the Congregational Church, and to trace its course is somewhat curious. Passing down the steeple it divided and the4wo currents ran east along the tin spouting on each side about two-thirds the length of the house, and directly opposite each other ran down the water conductors to within three feet of the floor of the upper audience room on the south side and on the nbrth side within two feet. Here it left the conductors and passed through the solid .brick walls on both sides, making a small hole external ly alid fcbout two feet in diameter inter nally. At these points it took the gas pipes on each side, following these to the meter in iKe basement, melting the lead pipe from its connections, destroying the meter, and setting on fire the released gas. The bricks ojid petering were strewn about the floor, and one brick upon the south side was hurled through the sky-light in the rear of Austin, Shryer & Co.'s hardware establishment!

MUNICIPAL AFFAIRS.

Mayor Cookerly's Annual Address.

Gentlemen of the Council-.—I take pleasure in greeting you as the representatives of the people of our growing city and congratulate you on the happy auspices under which you have assembled

You have been chosen by the people for the purpose, not only of protecting the interests:, but advancing the prosperity of the city, and I can not doubt that you will so direct your councils as to meet the most sanguine" expectations of your constituents.

We all have a common interest in the progress of our city, and in all measures tending to advance her in growth and prosperity should, and I have no doubt will, receive the hearty co-operation "f all.

We have all the elements which are necessary to build up and make a large and flourishing city. Situated in one of the most fertile regions in the world and blessed with the greatest boon of man, health, together with boundless regions of coal right at onr door, who can doubt that, ere long, oar lovely and beautiful place will take rank among tjie prominent cities in the West.

We possess everything to unite capital and enterprise among us, and it will come sooner or later, if the proper effort be made on our parts to receive it. Nature has done much for us, and it needs only the application ot capital and labor, to develope the vast resources which abundantly around us. .Our railrftad facilities will now be equal to almost any other point in the State, giying us the means of transportation in all directions.

Your predecessors, looking into the future and appreciating the'gieatadvantages derived from rail roads, wisely and with great harmony and unimity, subscribed on behalf of tha city, for two thousand shares of stock in the Evansville, Terre Haute and Chicago Railway Co., to aid in the construction of this highly important thorough fere, which will, vhen completed, give us direct communication with the city of Chicago, and the Lakes.

The same Counotl also, THth the Millar unanimity, authorised tha spbsttitaon of 1100,000 of stock in the a»t««rfated Railroad torn thwpoint to Blop^filld in Greene couif^, IregaM ih^&ffnpletion of this road as of^hidMiwst importance, tend although the prospect for its building seems, to languish at present yet, it is of £Pftarand enterprise will so record the efforts of the city and the people of Greene county and along the line that said rpad may take, that its e*Hy wseNion may J* sgrure beyond a peradventure. To insure tWs,, every one who has tRe prosperity of the city tmlr at heart, should use his b«t energies. No obstacles should stand in the way of this great enterprise. If there be any let it be removed as soon as possible —let the organizatio* of the company of

as soon as practicable and the

good work commenced, of iqaking the road. That4he ejkpetotati^ii&er^e&fcy your predecipsors sooo.bi rwUaeijtI most fondly ljppeA. Ta

The people demand the building of this road, and he or they, if there be any such, who stand in the way of its eonsummation, have assumed a grave responsibility.

I allude to this matter, gentlemen, in order that an interest may be awakened in behalf of this enterprise, which, I trust, may lead to renewed efforts on the part of all interested in the matter.

With a spirit of just praise, which I am well satisfied pervades our entire people, I point to our system of schools as at present organized. They are not suryog, in the are' there superior facilities for educating children Let us foster them in every possible manner, for in no way can the money of the people be better expended. We need more school room, and I hope the Board of T^USTEESJ'wiho have hee? SO efficient in the discharge of their duty, will be able to make some arrangement by which, at least, two new school houses may be erected this year.

The able and satisfactory report rendered on the first Tuesday in this month by,Ilie Treasurer will showUlie financial condition of the city. It wmte^een. by thai report that the people nave been more prompt in paying their taxes than for several of the preceding years. I am informed by that faithful officer that the delinquencies will not exceed fifteen thousand dollars.

The amount of taxable property for 1870 as returned by the Assessor, inclu sive of real estate, will amount to about eight million Ihree ^Jijindied thonsafic dollars. Upon this yfarjqUi.hayfe itfKi,assess a tax sufficient to defray the ordinary expenses of the city government, pay off the Normal School bonds which become due in 1871 amounting, principal and interest, to $24,840 to meet the interest on one hundred thousand dollafs.of sev ed per cent, bond? issued ori account of stock taken in Evansville, Terre Haute and Chicago Railway Company, and five cents on each one hundred dollars to con stitute a sinking fund for the final re demption of said bonds.

I cannot retrain from bearing^ testimo ny to the satisfactory manner in which

the business of the Treasurer's office, has been conducted by the present efficient officer. Also the clerks office, under the management of the clerk, and John B, Tolbert, his assistant. These offices have not been so well conducted for several years. They deserve great praise for their efficiency.

The number of arrests made will prove that the Chief of Police, and his corps of officers, have been diligent in the di§Ql}arge ,o£ t^ieir du|y. During the year there have been arrested nearly nine hundred for violation of the city ordinances, and nearly two hundred for mis dedmeanors and felonies, making in all about eleven hundred arre3ts that have been made during that period.

The marshal and his deputy have also discharged their duty faithfully. I am pleased to state the fact that the officer.' are all in harmony with each other and I belive devoted- to the interest of the city.

It will be seen from a statement I iiave made out, that I have paid for fines and costs into the city treasury during vear ending 30th of'April, $1293,90the city Attorney for fees, 1,004.7 To the Marshal as fees, $69G,o0, as in city cases.

the To

I will also state that the number of cases tried have been much less since my report made in October last than prior to that time from the commencement of my present term of office. This is most grat ifying, because it demonstrate* the fact that the,morals of the pity have been im-

It vt to he nbtedthat they wi

proyiijg. ,11 so continue. Permit me again to call attention to the propriety of erecting suitable build ings for the city offices and also a prison I would refer you to the report of the select committee appointed by the pre ceding Council, for a plan for these build ings.

I shall take great pleasure in recom mending.to you from time to time such measures as I may deem of importance, and pledge you my hearty cooperation in all things that may have a tendency to accomplish those ends.

Gentlemen, in conclusion permit me to say in behalf of the old Council, that a more devoted set of men to the interests intrusted to them never represented people. Each and every one of them acted with the sole desire to advance the prosperity (if the city. I now tender to them my hearty thanks for their kindness extended lo me, and shall ever cherish with the utmost feelings of gratitude.

Having said thiskmuch. and cherishing tlie hope th»t our delations for the coming year will lie both pleasant and agree •able, and that the common goodwill be improved by our action, 1 now declare this Council organized and ready for bus iness G. F. COOKERIA.

EXCITEMKNT STILL CONTINUES.—A (lis patch to the press agent of Van Amburgl & Co., now in Terre Haute, from Danville^ Ind., o'clock, night, says: "Make arrange nients for extra seats at Terre Haute clear to the ring. I do not want another such a time as at Indianapolis. 1 mean trouble of getting them ourselves, addition of n#w animals at Greencastle awaiting us. Two magnificent audience-to-day, all highly pleased. The Foreign Circuses just the ticket. Don't neglect the newspapers whatever you do. \V can entertain and please the largest audi ence Terre Haute can give us. These directions will do for Lafayette."

self,on Ills way by jumping upl»ehind a stage^ we consider him a happy type of a class of persons who endeavor to advance their interests By' iiiSySshabby•»*peci«S totdependence on tiiB means of ad vancement of others. It is astonishing what a deal of jumpihg-np-behind ism there is one way and another. It is strikingly observable in the case of those who attempt to set agoing newspapers with titles which are already, celebrated, but to which the word New—in order to create a trifling difference—is appended. A painstaking author is happy in producing a popular work every one reads it, and when at the heigfrM of its fame, out there comes an imitation with" a name so slightly altered from that of the original .that the world is half inclined to suppose there must lie some connection betwixt the two of course, the design is that the imitation shall jbe con founded with its predecessor. Another author writes a book which gains a large circulation, but the jumperup in this in stance, not finding it convenient /to imitate, adopts the alternative of attacking.— In his announcements, he prints the name of the individual he assails in the largest possible size, in order, to attiSct attention, while he modestly sets down his own in that which would almost require a magnifying glass to decipher. We have known many amusing instances^ of this anxious endeavor to "partake the favoring gale."

Jumpiag-up-behind-ism, on a meaner scale, is often observable in the matter of sign-boards and their blazonry. A devCr tradesman is fortunate in establishing a concern under a .taking title—when, lo, up starts a rival across the way jvith the same appellation, and -the inventor of the original establishment has the disagreea-. ble and expensive duty to perform, of incessantly advertising that his concern is the true one.

We confess we are not friendly lo the mean practices which we have mention ed, however common they may be. We like to see every man retaining the copyright, as it may be called, of his name, or the name and style of his produc ions, whether it be as the author ol a bo k, or as the blazon of a sign-board.

The above, written by Mr. BonnCr, of the New York Ledger, applies very well to a case now/before the citizein of Terre
