OUR THANKS are due Rev. John L. Boyd, for the full reports of the Methodist Conference which appear in the EXPRESS from day to day.

IT IS NOT TRUE that Councilman Dowling and Marshal Whiteman belong to the Mutual Admiration Society.

HAYWARD & RYANsell at their rooms, commencing at 10 o'clock, the entire stock of furniture of the late firm of Foster & Son. See advertisement in another place.

ON account of the illness of the Pastor there will be no vreaching at the 2d Presbyterian Church, corner of 5th and Ohio. The Sabbath School as usual at 2h o'clock.

A WORKMAN at Messrs. Thompson & Keys' spoke and hub establishment received an accidental injury to the liand, yesterday, by contact with some of the machinery.

BISHOP SIMPSON preaches at Centenary Church to-morrow morning. The pulpits of many of the other city Churches will be filled by ministers in attendance upon the Methodist Conference.

A IJAROE and valuable deposit of cannel coal has been discovered in this county, a short distance east of the city and north of the new railroad. We cannot give the exact location, but have a fine specimen of the coal.

SPLENDID VEHICLE.—Wildy, Thomas & Co., had on exhibition at the Fair Grounds yesterday—not entered for a premium—a Pony Phaeton, which is a real gem, and a good specimen of two dozen or more vehicles of this class, manufactured by this firm during the past summer.

ACCIDENT.—Yesterday afternoon,while the trotting race at the .Fair Grounds was going on, a number of people climbed upon an old stairs leaning against the north end of the amphitheatre, when the frail support fell with a tremedous crash. The only person injured was a young lady, who suffered a dislocation and probably fracture of the knee cap. She was removed from the grounds soon after the accident, so we could not learn her name.

FINE VEAL.—On yesterday Councilman Seeburger killed an immense calf, weighing G60 pounds, and only five months old. He purchased it of Mr. James Elliott, eight miles west of the city. It is said to be the largest calf of that age ever killed in this city. Mr. Seeburger will serve it to his customers at the lower market this morning, and perhaps visitors to the evening market will be able to get apiece of it.

THE PICNIC arranged by the Terre Haute Miennorchor, in conjunction with other societies, will come off at the new Fair Ground to-morrOTv. The proceeds of the pic nic will be forwarded to Germany for the relief of the widows and orphans of the fallen soldiers of Germany and those wounded in battle.

Trains will leave the Union Depot at 11 o'clock A. m., anil 1 o'clock p. M., returning at 5 and o'clock p. M. Fare for the round trip, 25 cents children 15 cents.

CENTENARY CHURCH.—It has already been announced that the dedicatory exercises of Centenary Church will take place to-morrow at 10 o'clock, Bishop Simpson officiating. But 'we have not mentioned anything of the most beautiful and elegant audience room that will receive the eager congregation.. ]STo member of that congregation can look at the delicate frescoing, the beautiful windows, the splendid chandeliers and elegant carpet, all in happy adaptation and perfect harmony, and not feel a thrill of pleasure at the successful consummation of their earnest effort.

The City Council and the German Flag. From the Ter-c Ilauto Banner,]

At the meeting of the City Council on Tuesday night, Mr. Coats, of the First Ward, madea speech to explain what he calls "a gross misrepresentation in the German Republican paper of this place." In his remarks, as printed in the Gazette of yesterday, this is the "misrepresentation" which he charges us with making in the Banner. "It is represented that myself, in con nection with Mr. Dowling, had given the Marshal of the oitv orders to have the German flags taken down on yesterday."

Mr. Coats having set up this charge proceeded to knock it down vigorously. Mr. Dowling, of the 4th Ward, came to his aid, and both gentlemen stoutly denied having given the Marshal any such instructions. It seems to us that both gentlemen are taking great pains to abuse the Marshal and to misrepresent the Banner needlessly. The facts are: 1st. That the Banner never said that Messrs. Coats and Dowling had instructed the Marshal to have the German flag taken down. This is what we said:

Mr. Fabricius,proprietor of the Volksblatt, in company with our office, have displayed a large German Union flag from the window last Monday. Hurrah for Germany!" "Our City Marshal gave us a call and notified us, that the flag which we had hoisted extended too far out of the window. The ordinance permitting only three feet. Verily this flag is a source of annoyance to these gentlemen. She shall remain there, should it cost a dollar." 2d, the Marshal neyer told us that Messrs. Coats and Dowling or any body else had given him any instructions about the matter. The Marshal told us, that the displaying of our flag in the place and manner we did it was a violation of the ordinance and directed us to change it, we thought it was not a violation and* did not'change it, or pay attention to the Marshal's request. Thi# is all there was of it, and it seems to be a small matter to try to make any glory out of it in the Council. We shall keep our flag floating.

PREMIUMS AWARDED.

The attendance of people at the Fair yesterday was much larger than op thft day befdrd, aad'tbe: Directpw1of We Society have no cause for complaint on this score this season. For such a trnout of people it is really a shame that a better show cannot be made. Dealers, mechanics, artisans and the owners of fine stock, are unmindful of their own interests in not contributing to these county fairs, for certainly no better place can be fo&ni to advertise their wares Look at it from this "standpoint" and do better next

The forenoon of yesterday was occupied in the exhibition of horses, cattle, jacks and mules.

At two o'clock the contest took place for tlie preuiums to the ladiea #ho jjfan ride most gracefully andminaje their horces the best. Only two ladies came upon the track. Both rode finely and attracted the attention of the large audience assembled in the amphitheater.— The judges awarded the first premium, a §20 saddle to Miss Jordon, and the second premium, $5 and a bridle, to Miss Ryman.

For the special premiun of $20 in gold offered byJJones & Jones for the best green trotter, there were ten entries by the following gentlemen:

Charles May, George Durham, Frank Hodges, J. W. Creal, George M. Tuller, James Elliott, Lyman Durham, C. C. Smock, H. Simmons and John McCamp.

After several attempts the ten horses got a good send off at the same time. George Durham's grey mare "Dolly Long" came in ahead on first heat in 3:21. H. Simmons' bay mare "Lady Simmons" took the next three heats in 3:19,3:15 and —, and was awarded the premium.

TO*DAY. ...JIMTDI

This is the last day of the Fair. No articles can be taken from the ground until noon. For this afternoop at three o'clock a trot has' beeta ''made up for horses that have never beaten 3:20, for a premium of $50 for the best and $25 to the second best, Three entries have already been made, and the books will' remain open until an hour before tlie race. 10 AWARD OF PREMIUMS*-.^ ).

in fragrant Sozodont, which removes all stains from the teeth and imparts such a peculiar rosiness to the gums, the public are hereby informed that it is a preparation from tlie bark of the Qillaya Saponaria or, Soap Tree of Chili, imported for thefirst time into this country for this special purpose. Such is the purifying and innocuous effect ot this rare botanicr! agent, that it removes discolorations from the most fragile textile fabrics, without injuring a single thread.
