EAKW TIMES.—CHAUNCI-.Y

The writer of this, who still claims to be a young man, was not then bom but .Mr. Rose's statement- affords a beautiful starting point for a contrast of the West, as it then was, and what the West now is. At tlte time Mr. Rose was making that ong journey on horseback in 1817 Zanesville, Columbus, Chilicothe aud Cincinnati were the principal towns in Ohio, and they were ali small. Cleveland, 1'avton, Springfield, Lancaster and Newark won mere villages. Toledo was not vol dreamed of, nor was the fntnr reatness of Cincinnati even suspected, except by a few who were probably re arded as more enthusiastic than sensible, the infant Indiana, Corydon, Charlr. town, Madison and Vincennes wen1 about the greatest towns or villages. Richmond and New Albany, if then in exislcncr must have been very young and small Indianapolis, Terre Haute, Latavetle I.ogansport, EvansviHe, 'rawford vi11c and many such towns, had not been stalled. it was a wilderness over which the traveler slowly made his way on horseback, and with great hardlips. As for Illinois, Sliawneetown was about as important a town as there was west of the Wabash river. It was till claimed by the Indians. Mr. Rose, on horseback, passed over the entire breadth of Ohio, Indiana anil Illinois, and partly over Kentucky and Missouri, and it is intensely interesting to hear him state what was the condition of the country. It, is true that, with all the enthusiasm of a young man, he declares that tour of observation to have been the most interesting journey he ever made, as no doubt ir was, but that does not change the simple facts as he saw them fifty three years ago, and ai more intelligent witness could not have looked at them.

Inasmuch as a journey by stage coach and on horseback has been named, let me contrast travel in 1^70 with what Mr. Rose found it in 1S17. you please, go back to Rocky IliH. in Connecticut, and bv rail at tniriy miles an hour make your wav to New York, thence in three "hours to Philadelphia, the very space over which the "ilying stage wagon" was advertised sixty years ago to travel wilh "unexampled swiftness''' in two days thence by the Pennsylvania Railroad in a palatial car to Pittsburg in twelve hours thence on the Pan Handle to Columbus, Ohio, and Terre Haute, Indiana, in fifteen hours! The nergv. foresight and capital of Mr. Rose

himself have done invaluable seryice in the work of spanning Indiana with railways, and thus enabling the traveler from Boston to St. Louis, through New \ork, Philadelphia, Pittsburg and Indianapolis, to accomplish in 1870 the journey in fewer hours than it took him days to perform it in 1871.

Saturday Marshal

Whiteman arrested at the depot, a colored man named Fred Cummins, charged with stealing a revolver in February last, from another colored man named Patterson. The latter followed the thief to town at the time of the commission of the theft, but the thief gave him a slip at the depot, and had not been seen hereabouts until Saturday, when he was nab« bed, and commited to jail by Mayor Cookerlv.

iiu-h.—

In Saturday's Indianapolis Journal we find an interesting letter from Dr. Tuttle, of Wabash College, in which is the following allusion to early times in connection with one of our oldest and most es teemed citizens. Dr. Tuttle tfays:

Mr. Rose started from Connecticut Sep tember 1, 1S17. At Pittsburg he found no means of going further, but to go afoot or buy a horse. He did the latter, and made his way across Ohio to Kentucky to meet a brother at Lexington. Thence across the yearling State of Indiana to Vincennes. He wished to go still further west, but was told it was not a safe jour nev for one man to make alone, and he accordingly waited several days at Yin cennes for company, which he found in two fine Kentucky gentlemen who were going to Missouri to settle their sons on new lands. The danger apprehended was more from white desperadoes, who were said to infest that wild country, than from the savages. The party camped out very frequently, and went more than a hundred miles west of St. Louis, which was at that time a small town. He re mained until his Kentucky friends had performed their business, and then accompanied them back to Vincennes. He rode the one horse he bought at Pittsburg that fall thirty-three hundred miles.From Vincennes to Fort Harrison encountered some danger, in the exasperation of the Indians at the recent killing of one of their number by white man. Some voting men who designed to go to the fort backed out, but Mr. Rose made the journey alone safely. Indeed he seems to have had about, an equal share of resolute courage and good .sense in his dealings with the Indians whom, at that early day he often met. On one occasion he punished a young Indian who deserved it, and the boy's mother started at once for her wigwam to hide her lord's gun, he being too drunk just then to be reasoned with about the treatment of his sou.

Terre Haute Banner is the name

of the German Republican paper, the first number of which will be issued in this city on Saturday next. It is to be a six column paper, and issued tri-weekly. It will be edited and published by the German Republican Press Company, and delivered to subscribers at ten cents a week. We bespeak for the new enterprise a liberal patronage both in advertising and subscription.

Not long'since Mr. Chauncey Rose, of Torre Haute, told me some of his adven tures in coming West in the fall of 1817 He says, with an audible smile, that he paid his passage in the public conveyance to Pittsburg, and would not have com plained of that had he not been compelled to walk so much and help the stage wag' on out oi' its hard places! A freight train on the Pennsylvania Railway will now carry its immense burdens from Phil adelphia to Pittsburg in almost as many hours as it took days for the stage coach to carry passengers between the same points in 1817!

THE HAIR CUTTER ARRESTED!—The

young girls of this city, the possessor? of luxuriant tresses, will be rejoiced to learn that the artist who has been clipping hair has been found out and arrested. Sometime since officer W. H. Shadlsy suspicioned that a young man some eighteen or twenty years of age,'named Aleck Salomon, was the guilty party. One day Shadley, in a playful manner, searched young Salomon, they being quite intj. mate. Shadley^ discovered in one of his pockets a pair of long scissors. He said nothing, and Salomon did not suspect the object. From that time the. officer kept a close watch on his movements at night. On Saturday evening Salomon stationed himself in front of Sage's confectionery, and closely watched all who entered and passed out. Presently a young girl with long and heavy tresses hanging down her back entered the store but when she came out,she'was accompanied by a gentleman. This seemed to greatly exasperate the "fellow, and he started up the street. Officer Shadley immediately communicated his suspicions to the Chief of Police, and it was determined to make a search of the young man's trunk. In this was found a quantity of-hair, evidently clipped from eight or nine different heads. Two or three persons have recognized in the lot of hair, locks clipped from the head of their daughters. Young Salomon was arrested and lodged in jail. He will have a hearing to-day. We understand that he confesses to the commission of the acta, and says his object was to make money. He is the son of Mr. P. A. Salomon, painter in the T. M. & I. 11. R., car shops, and a very estimable gentleman, who is deeply grieved nt his son's disgrace.
